And summer came in love and power, Breathing on every tintiest flower, Till, pregnant with the magic s*ns3, They flashed into a life's intense : And sent their glories far and wide, " Sir, the field officer ot the day is com- ing, and the guard is turning out." 1 rushed to my boots, pulled them on over my unstockinged feet ; thrust my sword arm in my regimental cloak ; which cap on my head, and, gras i ng my sword, looked to the ontward observer as though " fit for parade." 1 was justin time to receive the field officer,"who again asked me if my guard was correct, I answered ratherin a tone of surprise, and said, " yes, sir, all correct." I could not " imggine why my guard should be visited tice, as such a proceed- ing was unusual, and perhabs my toue scemed to imply that I was surpriced.-- Whether it was that, or whethera trech- erous gust of wind removed the folds of my cloak and exhibited the slightest taste Q'er the garden, vale, and mountain side ; The passing zéphrs stooped to kiss, AndTeft them redolent of bliss, And now that Autumn days are o'er, And I ean see nor leat, nor flower, land, or hand, I seem to stand on bord With a dead world on e Ah Me ! twere sad if hope did not Mingle so largely in our lot, And in our ears prophetic ring The promise of another Spring.

In addition to this, 1 had ocea- | sicnally, to mount guvard, and to pass twenty-four hours in a sort of half im- prisonmen'*, It is one of the regulations of the ser- vice that when aflicers or men are on guard | they should alwiga Bo in a state of veadi- | | ness to "fall in" on parade in a moment's | notice. 1f you feel very sleepy. and de- sire rest, yon must take it whilst you are buttoned up to the throat and strapped | down to the heels ; a lounge in an arm chair, or perhaps a litile borizontal re-| | freshment upen a sofa, is the extent of | | rest which an officer on gnard is supposed | to indulge in. Among my brother subalterns in garri- son it was our usual practice to infringe upon this strict letter of the law; and | wien the principal part of the duty had uesd to | ourselves by divesting our limb indulge | of their armonr, and seeking refreshment b tween | pn accomplished we | the sheets of alittle camp bed that was placed in the inner guard room. | It was part of the duties of an officer on | guard to visit all the sentinels during the night, the time for visiting 'them "usually au hour orso after the field officer had visited the guard ; the field oflicor being colonel er major who was on duty for the day, and who camz once by day and once by nights to see the guards, and to see that all was as it should be. There was no exact number of times that the field | officer might visit the guards, but it was | the usual thing, and had become almost | a custom for him to come once by day and once by night, so after the usual visit the subaltern usually waited an hour or so, walked round the Mmits of post, visited all his sentries, and then turned into bed. | It was a bitter c6ld morning in Janu- ary that my turn for guard came on. 1 mercted my men to the post, relieved the old guard, and then, having gone through | the regular duty and dined, endeavored to pass the time until the field officer had visited: The previous evening I had been at a ball in towh, and in consequence was very tired and 'sleepy, and looked with | considerable longing to the period whon I | 1 joying a good snooze, | At length I heard the welcome 'chal- | swered, ' grand ronnds," and * guard turn out !" was, a signal which I willingly obey--| ed, for I knew that in an hour afterwards | I should be in the aims of the god of | | sleep.

As | to. its selfish appropriation of lands, i's game laws, the serfdom of agricultural labirers, and all the other fruits of an old | and feudal system, " 1 certainly think it) is ridiculbus to assert that the conserva | tinues are possessed of all these attributas while the Liberals are at war with them. | I don't think a" landlord who calls him- self a Liberal is likely to deal any more leniently with a poacher, or take more ac- tive steps to do away with the cause of | poaching, than his Conservative neighbor.

The fact is many of those are not | actually questions of party at «ll but |imerely matters of individual opinion, | and it. would take an able navigator to {draw a line just where Liberalism begins | 'and Conservatism ends, and vice versa. - 1 think the difference between Censervative and Liberal is werely ab- { stract.
