THE BLUE AM) THE GRAY. We have drifted on together toward eternity sublime. It has not all been sunshine as the years have gathered on. And yet the sun seemed brighter when clouds have come and gone; As, after summer's shower that obscures the god of day. All nature seems the brighter when the storm has passed away.

As memory wanders backward o'er these seven and twenty years. And heart recalls your lovo to me my eyes are dim with tears. In tender recollection of the "days of auld lang syne," When we plighted troth together and you joined your lite to mine. And now they say we're growing old, but you seem young to me; And as together we go on my love fades not for thee. We're growing old together now the shadows longer grow, And only over yonder wc may see the sunset glow The glorious frolden glimmer, when autumn's day is done, Presage, of fair to-morrow when night her course has run.

So may our lives move onward in loving, even flow; The smile of God's approval may we at all times know. And when shall end life's journey and life's labors shall be done. With God's smile and benediction may our lives still be as one. Kansas Citv, Nov. 21, 1S9 1.

Bounty is Wealth. We commend the spirit manifested by the comrades of Columbia post and its guests on that occasion, and the patriotic addresses then delivered by the orators there, to the careful and thoughtful consideration of the camps of ex-confederates at Richmond and elsewhere in the south. It would be well for our southern friends who desire a more fraternal union between those who wore the blue and those who wore the gray if they would imitate the action of Columbia post and other posts of the Grand Army of the Republic in extending the friendly hand. We are glad to believe that there is a growing tendency among those who wore the gray to accept a fraternal greeting of those who wore the blue and recognize the fact that we are citizens of one common country between whom there should be no sectional lines of division. This sentiment should be fostered and encouraged everywhere.

The comrades of the Grand Army have manifested; a desire to treat all who now love the aid flag and are loyal to country, as brothers.
