But this, with everything else that either glad¬ 
dened or saddened her, she carried to the mercy 
seat, never ceasing to “ watch and pray,” being 
comforted greatly by these words:—“ Wherefore, 
my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, immova¬ 
ble, always abounding in the work of the Lord, 
forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in 
vain in the Lord.” 
But there came a week when a letter came 
not, and it was then that the tidings of the battle 
at Gettysburg thrilled the great. Northern heart, 
and in thousands of houses mothers were weep¬ 
ing like Rachel of old, refusing to be comforted 
because tbeir children were not. It came at 
last, the blow that was to widow her heart for 
the rest of her life. In a daily paper, in the ter¬ 
rible list of the killed and wounded, she read 
the name that was never omitted in her prayers: 
—“ Captain Willis Cheney, shot through the 
heart.” 
A few days after that came a letter in a strange 
hand-writing, telling her of the glorious death 
ho met while bravely urging his men to press 
ODward, aud of the lowly grave where, “with 
his martial cloak around him,” ber beloved lay 
Bleeping his last long sleep. Inclosed in the 
letter was the following note: 
“Mr Daklisg:—W e are on the eve of a great battle, 
and tometliing tell* me it will be my last. Have you for¬ 
gotten what yon said to me the night we parted, Jessy 1 
1 If you were only flu soldier, dear Will V IIow those 
words have haunted me ! I have heard them above the 
roar of cannon on the battle field, and in the solemn still¬ 
ness of my tent at midnight. 
“ Gon bless you for them, dearest, and for your prayers, 
for they have been the means, blessed of Him, in leading 
me to enlist under the glorious banner of the Captain of 
onr Salvation. I am His soldier now Jessy, and will nev¬ 
er lay my armor off till He rails me to Him; and 1 think 
my marching orders will come soon. 1 hare had bright 
dreams, darling, of a happy fireside, a peaceful home and 
tbs dearest little wife in the world; hut they are all gone 
now. 
11 Poor little JessyI you will be left alone to bear your 
burden through life, aud 1 meant to have shielded you 
from all care with my strong right arm; yet not alone, for 
the God we both love will strengthen and sustain you. 
May He ever keep you uuder the bhadow of His wings, 
and re-unite us in that happy home where partings never 
come. 
“ Good-bye, my dearest, a long good-bye till we meet in 
heaven I Do not sorrow for me—I am Content aud happy 
—but think of that blessed time when with your soldier 
and Hit soldier you shall stand before the Throne of God I 
“ A thousand kisses for my dear love from her 
"Will.” 
That last, letter from her soldier! What a 
precious bului it was to Jessy's wounded heart 
in those first dark days of ber sorrow, almost 
turning her wail of mourning into Bongs of re¬ 
joicing. Her prayers were answered —he was 
safe; and looking with renewed confidence unto 
Gor>, her strength, watchfully and prayerfully 
journeyed on toward her heavenly homo.

To greet me where I lie; 
To grretme where I lie, 
While bright eyed daisies gleam 
From out their bed* of tangled grass, 
Beside the clouded stream. 
Now deeper grow the shadow* drear, 
And fasfer fall* the rain, 
And 1 am here alone, alone 
With weary, aching brain; 
With weary, aching brain, 
While birds their music sweet 
Pour out from warbling, sunny throats, 
Some tisppier soul to greet. 
Have I no right, 'tnid toiling life, 
To visions of delight f 
To listen now to tender songs 
That fall to red-birds bright) 
That fall to red-birds bright! 
Ah, no ! ’tls all In vain, 
The songs that used to greet iny ear 
Will never come again. 
The tender clasp of one small hand 
Forever mocks my brain, 
These strains that pierce the misty air 
Are melodies of pain; 
Are melodies of pain, 
And night tim only brings 
A fiercer storm, that drowns the red 
Light on the robin's wings.

WATCH AND PRAY

AN ANAGRAM. 
A clear, cold autunm evening, tint a very 
pleasant one, notwithstanding. There was a 
fair round mooli overhead; hosts of merry, 
twinkling, bright-eyed little stars Cfttne trooping 
out in the blue ether, and the modest West was 
still blushing like a maiden at the recollection 
of the ardent farewell lunges of the jolly King of 
Hay. 
Captain Cheney, broad-shouldered, blue-eyed 
and bearded, evidently enjoyed it hh he strutted 
leisurely down the quiet country road, smoking 
his evening cigar; thinking how long a time 
would probably elapse era he should tread that 
road again, for the morrow would see him on his 
way to the “tented field;” and wondering how a 
dear, little, brown-haired fairy would respond to 
a certain question he meant to ask her that 
night 
“ O, would she give me vow for vow, 
Sweet Alice, if I told her all f ” 
He threw away his cigar as he opened a little 
red gate, and entered the narrow walk that led 
to a low-roofed, old-fashioned farm-house, hum¬ 
ming, as he went, those unequaled lines of 
Burns: 
“ Altho’ thou maun never he mine, 
Altho’ even hope is denied; 
! Tis sweeter for thee despairing, 
Than aught in the world beside—J essy!” 
Little Ned answered his knock at the door, 
and gleefully ushered him into the great kitchen, 
where the family were assembled. A bright fire 
crackled on the hearth; the floor and walls were 
spotless, and against tho latter hung rows of 
shining tins, that glistened like silver in the 
crimson glow of the firelight And there was 
grandma Jewel, in her big arm-chair, in the 
warmest corner of the room, as usual. A very 
antique jewel was grandma, in rather a faded 
setting; and despite all Jessy’s endeavors to 
keep her looking trim,, she would get tumbled 
up, aud always had her snowy cap pitched on 
her head in such a warlike style, her collars so 
terribly awry, and the rest of her garments in 
such a disorderly manner, that she generally 
presented the appearance of having been en¬ 
gaged in a series of lively skirmishes. 
Little Ned and live-)ear old Aoar danced 
around the captain in a transport of delight, for 
he was a favorite with all the wee folk, and 
grandma, who was much addicted to chanting 
stray fragment* of old songs, in a very cracked 
voice, struck up, quite vivaciously, 
“The captain with the whiskers took a sly glance at me!” 
which made the children laugh very much, and 
called forth a smile upon the frank, handsome 
face of the captain. 
jEssr welcomed him with such shy grace, 
and looked so pretty in ber simple gray delaine, 
a dainty white collar fastened with a peach-col¬ 
ored knot, her shiuiug brown hair smoothly 
banded away from her low while brow, a faint 
bloom on her cheeks, and her brown eyes with 
“looks like birds, flying straightway to the 
light,” that Captain Cheney could scarcely for¬ 
bear “presenting arms” then and there. But 
he smothered his feelings, or disposed of them in 
some other comfortable way, and sat down, with 
Aguy on his knee aud Nkd hovering near him, 
and listened to tbeir childish praftlo, while 
grandma, feeling excessively musical, every 
now and then put in a note: but the captain’s 
dark-blue eyes ever followed the little figure that 
flitted iu aud uut of the Kitchen, Intent on house¬ 
hold cares. At last she brought her low chair 
and sat down to her knitting; and a very pretty 
picture she made, so he thought, with the fire¬ 
light Bhining on the bowed head, that wag only 
raised when he addressed her—she was so Bhy, 
rids Jenny Jewel— and the little fingers deftly 
plying the needier 
And, by-and-by, when Ned asked him “ wheu 
•• was going duwu there to shoot the rebels?” 
i d the captain said “Tomorrow,” ihe little 
head drooped luwer still, aud he thought he saw 
something like a dew-drop fall on the dainty 
work, but he might have been mistaken.

emotion. He drew her tenderly lo his bosom, 
and pressed his lips reverently to the bowed 
bead. 
“Pray for me ever, my Jessy,” ho whispered. 
“ I feel sure that God will answer your prayers.” 
“ lie will. He will,” Bhe rejoined, eagerly, “if 
you only seek Him yourself. See what lie says, 
Willis,” and going to her work-stand took from 
lhence her little well-worn Bible. She opened 
it, pointing out with her finger—not a lily-white 
one like yours, fair lady reader, but browned 
with daily toil in that most unromantic part of 
the house, the kitchen—pointing out, with her 
little brown finger the following passages for 
him lo rend: 
" Come unto Me all ye tbat labor and are heavy laden, 
and I will Rive you rest.” 
“ Him that cometh to Me, I will in no wise east out. 
Somehow his eyes grew dim, aDd he read the 
holy words through a mist, and saw Jessy 
standing over him with a look on her face half¬ 
tender, half sorrowful, and altogether sweet, such 
as he supposed angels wear when they sorrow 
over fallen man. 
“Keep tho bowk, dear Will,” she said, smil¬ 
ing faintly; “it is all I have to give you, and 
read it for my sake, and ” here her voice grew 
lower, “ and for the dear Savior’s sake.” 
The whistling came nearer, and Tim's hand 
was on the latch of the back-door. The captain, 
half-playfitlly, drew her arm within his own and 
led her out by another door into the garden, 
down the walk to the old red gate. Then fol¬ 
lowed a tender, solemn parting, and the captain 
went forth crowned with a woman’s undying 
love, and followed by her prayers. And she,— 
she rel urned to her quiet, homely duties, to 
write cheerful, loving letters; to look anxiously 
for the daily telegrams, and to “watch and 
pray.” Sweet privilege! when those we love 
are far from friends and home-influences, lo bear 
them tenderly upon our prayers to the throne of 
Him who never disregards IJis children’s peti¬ 
tions, and whose loving care has numbered even 
the hairs of our heads.

Summer’s flower y robes, since Jessy parted 
from ber captain at the little red gate; and every 
week there had come to the old farm-house a 
letter telling of the dear one’s safety, and filled 
with words of love for her. Those, and how 
many there are, who receive from dear ones in 
the army letters filled with words of love can 
tell bow highly Jessy prized the sweet missives. 
But one thing grieved he,r. He never wrote a 
word upon the subject which lay nearest her 
heart, and of which her own letters were full.
