In this Inisy life ofours where ordinarily ones own affairsmake n]i its circuit, is it ne>t well thatthere are da_\s so imbedded in ourhearts, so marked by great events,that they seem a part of ourselves?.Such a line is the birthday of the Port-land and the Worcester Light In-fantrv. If stores of dry and learned love we keep them in the memory of the brain;Names, things and facts, whateer we knowl-edge call—There is the common ledger for them all.,^nd images on this cold surface tracedMake slight impression and are soon weve a page, more glowing and more bright,On which our friendship and our love we write;That these may never from the soul depart,We trust them to the metiiory of the heart—There is no dinniiing, no effacement there;Each new pulsation keeps the record clear,Warm golden letters all the tablet lose their lustre till the heart stands IiRST Lieut. \-. .M.
