The Dying Soldiers Lament
Contributed
A soldier from Missouri, in early man-
Uoods prime,
Lay among the dead and dying, in Mias-
Issippis clime,
On the bloody field of Corinth, bis life
was ebbing fast.
And comrade faint and bleeding, in
crowds mere hurrying past.
He saw his young companions, the
friends of earlier days,
Retiring from the conflict, before the
cannons blaze,
He saw borne aloft all tatered, the
! stand and bare ensign,
j The flag lie had carried, from near the
I Kansas line.
, A soldier stooped beside him, and rais
ed his drooping head,
When in feeble accents, the youthful
soldier said,
Farwell my friends and comrads, I bid
you all adieu,
Though you may shortly follow, I’ll ne’er
return to you.
With me the war is over, my marching
is at an end,
And tis a dying message, bp you I fain
would send,
To bear it to my kindred, and those
dear friends of mine,
For 1 have friends and kindred’ npon
the Kansas line.
I have an aged mother, you know that
mother well,
Bear to her those tidings, how I in
battle fell,
And tell her I remember, in anguish
her advice.
To live at home in quiet, not join the
rebel price.
Oh if I had but headed, the good ad -
vice she gave,
1 need not now be hastening, to fill a
rebels grave.
But I heeded another consul, and left
that home of mine.
That home of peace and quiet, upon
the Kansas line.
There was a black beauty, I need not
call her name,
She lured mo from my duty, and fan -
ned the rebel flame,
She said no hand with bers, ever could
unite,
Uule&s it was found boldly, defending
southern rights.
Oh southern rights alas, I knew not
what they were,
I sacrificed my judgement, before the
cannons blaze,
1 sacrificed my judgement, for this
beauties magic shrine,
And left my home of comfort, upon the
Kansas line.
But now his reason failing, the soldier
ceased to speak,
Upon the field of battle, where greek
had met with greek,
His life was made an offering, unto
the god of war,
His life was made an offering, Alas
alas what for.

the United States senate this winter to

it and its chance for passage is said to
be good.
Not so very long ago there was a pre

decided it to be constitutional.
