It was an /Folios harp with busman strings Around the battery the moon's rays seldom hit the ground, so thick were the bodies, or fragments of them, and the breeze seemed to thicken perceptibly with sound as it passed over what had been the breastworks. With the fitful sued' there were fitful awakenings from what seemed the sleep of death; eyelids quivered into feeble linings, fingers twitched, glassy eyes gleamed with • momentary light, bodies rolled over, legs or arms moved. like a preliminary more went beton resurrection.

All through the night. among the sounds borne by the breeze, the moo oneld hear those two voices from the dy- ing men clasped in each other's arms. Their talking wont into his own deliri- ous Im.1 finings, and started all earl• of fancies. It was tow and sweet, like the talking of angels or women or children.

Near by, the fresh timbers of a new dwelling replaced the old homestead which had vass shot away in the introductory movement to the battle. The thrifty old ample, who had been *oared away at the time from tsar property, returned like birds to their roust as soon as the disturbance was over. They were honestly proud of the honor ocareered on their small territory, and lived in simple .objection tc it. The old man was superstitiously careful to till poly in those secluded spots unenricbed by human gore, and was piously glad when a proven stenlity of soil diminish- ed his crop and endorsed leu judgment. He was very old sod childish, and so deaf that he looked as if nothing had ever penetrated his brain except the shrill voice of his wife. The old woman was as cheerful and energetic as she bad ever been. When her day's work was oyer she would sit with her knittaog on the porch Outfaced the public mrd, and think aloud her daily increasing wonderment at • battle in her own native State and on her own little scrap of land, a battery in her own cornfield. But the battle itself was. cheep home- made production and the day a faded represeotation to the battle and day call- ed Buena Vista. Her only son and child had been killed there and then, some twenty years before. The very name meant to her the clashing uf swords and the shining of the panoply of the arch- t angels Whenever people talked to her Ila of the last war and the tigbting in it, f she would simply ask them if they had w ever heard ,,f the battle of Buena Vida; t that was all. llo the anniversary of the battle, the battle that took plao'v in their own fields, which they determined to keep with the 0 Ssbbatb-like propriety of clean clothes otb and no work, • hack drove of the road o from the station and stopped at their sac gats A lady in deep mourning alight- ti ed, followed by • little toy. She walk- ed straight to the o,ttage, passed to ask spy a question, but seeing the grave in the si distance, she bunt into tears, and haat- tb toed up the path toward it, motioning to the little boy to remain behind. He tb sat down, shy and embarrassed, on the er lowest step. The old woman, looking eta after the lady, saw her drop on her knees on in the grass, and rest ber head against ret the fence around the grave. The whistle set of the northern -bound train was heard, and shortly after the same back return- ed with another fere; and stopped at the gate. A thin, gray-haired lat'y in shabby mourning descended, holding a toddling little girl by the hand. She would not be detained by a word. Hastily putting the little girl on the steps, she parsed to the grate, and ran toward it, not by the path, but over the field, which took her straighter and quicker. She too fell on her knees in the gra. outside the fence, and seemed to sob heavily. The old woman saw the first tamer rise from her knees, and then the other rose, and beth women t'onfrowt- ed each other over the fence, looking across the grave. Each mother looked into the face of the mother of the killer of her son, and the batteries of their hearts shot out • hatred that dried the tears in their eyes, THE HULLON SIGNAL, FRIDAY, SEPT. 20. 1889 ,gb, ye,,,,•R• Tb.a his ter trued bile to W tis beet.

The mom others for gut ash forgave, the more were they de- termioed to maintain the position i which their boys had died. On one anniversary the old farmer' wife wbiepered to the Southern moth that as statues were being put up every where to far less glorious soldiers, t Northern mother was resolved to place beautiful white marble statue of her eon at the bad of his grave. The Southern mother cried aloud despair at her poverty, but starve o not, she determined that her son should not lie ignominiously uncommemors:ed by the aide uf his rich cue. She seat an order t-, Italy, and for fear of unfavura- le comparison against her and ben, to he same sculptor selected by the rich Northern woman. The artist promised secrecy, and pledged himself not to de- lver the one statue before the other. They arrived together against the date ppuiated, and were put up side by aide at the heed of the grave. Such era• heir impatience that the two mothers came overnight before the anniversary, each one thinking to precede the other. The old woman furnished the Dada in ifreot rooms, but she could bear them alkntg the floor at all hours of the igbt waiting for daylight, crying, pray. nR io their excitement, as if the battle d only been of yesterday. She went ram one to the other with soothing ords of patience, and aaciee to make. rial of sleep, promising to wake each one at the tint cock -crow. She kept her promise In the early goy, from one aide cf the house crept no woman, from the other stole the er, each one hoping to be first, each ne carryiog her wreath of immortelles, h one lost in preccoup•tmoo, forget- s¢ the taking away of the fence.

There was • difference, and drf- ferenc. innuaenble, witch the cunning artist had wrought into the stone, in- cm.mhte to all except a mother's eye. The womep wept.

The hour was waking its glad jubilation in their hearts When out of earshot the crippled man looked back. The full moon was ruing as it rose that night over the battery. In the silver light the pore white marble figures stood like a glorified transfigura- tion of that va!or which once had strewn the spot witb slain ; the young man and woman nnnfe.ing and acknowledging their happy lore, a reeurre•:tion of the good -will which it bad seemed the can - 000. had shattered at that spot forever ; and it appeared to M+rcot that this suited his name "Amor Pstrino":Letter than the picture he bad tarried so many years in his brain.
