Saturday last will be a day long to be remembered by our citizens and those who witnessed the ceremonies of decoration day in our borough.. The principal ceremony was the strewing of flowers and wreaths on the graves of the fallen braves from this county that aro buried in the Cemetery—a tribute of respect and gratitude to the heroes that we trust will ho kept up until our nation shall cease to exist. At an early hour in the afternoon the Court House was filled with people, and the lino of march was shortly ta ken up toward to the Cemetery bead ed by the Huntingdon Silver Cornet Band, which. played the Dead March in such a sweet but mournful manner that not a few were so impressed with tho solemnity of the occasion that the tears started to their eyes. A silent prayer was offered up for the brave fathers who slept as the boys and girls of the Cassville Soldiers' Orphans School rnarched past neatly dressed in army blue, and thankful indeed should every patriot be to see the loved ones of the dead Soldiers fondly cared for arid in. structed at thee° homes which grace our Commonwealth. On arriving at the Cemetery the order of exercises was opened by the Orphans singing "My country 'tis of thee," after which Bey. J. W. Plannett offered a prayer. Next followed read ing of the General Orders of the G. A. R. in relation to the ceremony, when Milton S Lytle, Esq , then delivered the following address :- SOLDIERS AND CITIZENS :—On this memorial occasion, this second recurrence of our new national anniversary, we have assembled at the request of the surviving soldiers and in re sponse to the sympathies of our own hearts, to render some token of honor and veneration to those who went down to death in that great struggle which is still so fresh in our remembrance. And in doing this, is it not in accordance with the motives which should actuate us to hope for some incidental benefits to ourselves? May we not experience a renewal of our pa triotism and feel a glow of gratification and delight in contemplating the perpetuity of national life which has been secured for us? If it be of any value to observe with fitting ceremonies the day that gave birth to our in dependence, how much more important that we commemorate, appropriately, the services that saved us from the most inglorious death that could have been aimed at a nation. Let us, "by public assembly and by solemn obser vance, by anthem and by eulogy," extol the valor and achievements of our national bene factors and render thanks to God fur eminent blessings, early given and long continued, to our highly favored country. Wo are here, my friends, for the purpose of placing wreaths of flowers and evergreens on the graves of our fallen comrades, whose remains lie in this Cemetery. This simple service is in honor of men fur whom the last sad rite was not performed when they were borne to this final resting place—men who took their lives in their hands and boldly ventured and lost them in defence of the country they valued more than self. If we were to come here with each return of this beautiful season, and place the richest gar lands on their mounds, if we were to shed floods of tears that could TERSE be dried, if we were to inscribe their names on entabla tures bread as the earth itself, the debt which we, as a people, owe them, could never be paid. How spiritless, how inexpressive; how insignificant is all that we can do or say to manifest our admiration and gratitude, com pared with what they deserve? Peace to the patriot's shade? Let no rude hand disturb the laurels that lest on his tomb! 'Lot orphan tears bedew his sacred urn. Aud [sine's lend truinp.proclaint the hero's Same, • Ear as the cit cult of the spheres extends." But the purpose I have mentioned is not the only one fur which wo are here. Great and grand as that purpose is, yet the time 1 and the occasion rise into sublimity when we remember that the ceremonies of to-day are figuratively designed to recall and preserve the memory of that vast army that lies in trenched on many fields. Those who sleep in honored graves among their kindred are but a few when we think of the thousands who went and returned not. I know that of this large assemblage of the living, by far the greater portion do not find hare the more im mediate objects of their affection and rover , Once. Each heart reverts to the scene of car nage in which it was bereaved. The name of every battle field is in our minds or on our lips. Touching and melancholy as it might seem, it would, nevertheless be a pleas ure to tell you where and how those brave men fell, to recount their gallant deeds, their patriotic endurance and their self sacrificing devotion. But I cannot go from Gettysburg to the Rio Grande to point out each spot that was crimsoned by a soldier's blood. From Sumter to Appomattox, though but a few years, in point of time, embraced the events of ages. Those things have passed into his tory,- and already fill a considerable part of its volumes. As we comprehend the extent of the theme, we see the inadequacy of words to do justice to the memory of the dead or to repay the services of these who survive. With peculiar propriety, the humble trib ute we endeavor to pay, by strewing the fresh flowers of Spring on the graves of de parted worth, comes rem the hands of sol diers. It is the work of those who werecorn-. pardons in the hardships and participants in the perils of the fallen—the veterans who have resumed the garb of civilians and re turned to their peaceful pursuits and to their accustomed places in the community. If moth- ors forget not their sons, nor wives their hus bands, not' orphans their fathers, per sisters 1 their brothers, neither will these men forget the comrades who fell by their sides. My voice is heard by ears that have caught the last words of the dying—flowers will be strewn to-day by hands that have closed ex• piring eyes, and laid the dead to slumber, with no "useless coffin" to enclose his breast, no "martial cloak" but the rough blanket in which ho had often rested his weary limbs after the day's march. The performance of' these tender and brotherly offices was a duty surpassed in sadness only by the necessity which sometimes came upon us of surrender ing the field to an enemy that cared not to give decent sepulture to our dead and who buried them, if buried at all, where the graves will be forever unmarked and un known. Among the many results scoured by these annual offerings, of honor and respect, the soldiers, who are now here as citizens, net only re-open the hearts of a generous anti grateful people, but keep alive fraternal feel ings among themselves. They are reminded -again of the many occurrences of the war— the earliest as well as the latest. They think of the conflicts on the Peninsula, com mencing almost with the disembarkation at Fortress Monroe, continuing up to the very gates of Richmond, including the Seven Dap Rattles, and ending when our army OA re. fuge at Harrison'a - Landing. Then followed the witdrawal - from the James river,' the sec ond disaster at Bull's Run and tho retreat in to Maryland, where, under Providence, we were permitted to retrieve the glory and re putation of our arms. I see those here who may well remember that September day on the banks of tho Antiotard. They have not forgotten the sifetit •mitreh'of the night be ' fore, when not even a whisper was allowed in the ranks, not a sound that could warn the enemy of their movements: Rapidly passed the remaining hours that separated fee from foe, and soon ES the dawn dispelled the darkness, 'me aftrightedalr with a shudder bore, Like a herald in k. har to the ohieftoite door: The terrible grumble and linable and roar' Telling the tattle was on once store" . '' I Then came the hurried order to "full in," I and the. ready • obedience on the pact of the traems. The' long line was formed across [ the fields, and the steady advatiee' begaO. Forward the 'Column went, over the ground , .. • .• . newly turned for the Autumn crop, through the woods that hid for a moment the battle's smoke, over fieldijerell filled with the ripen ing corn, and over feiMes that intervened. On, still on, they pressed, undismayed by the bullets that whistled above their heads, or the gape that were" made in their ranks. There was no hesitation, no halting, until volley answered volley.in the deadly strife. "Bee the smoke, how the lightning is cleaving asunder , nark] the guns, peal on peal, how they Loom la their thunder." However minutely I might describe that drama of danger and death, I could add no thing to the knowledge of those around me who were actors in IL Perhaps I can re mind them of nu circumstance they are not already familiar with. Be it said to their lasting honor, that they went on that day where troops had never gone before, and where none went afterwards. The limited time I can occupy to-day will not permit mo tb give even a passing notice to the More important of the battles in which soldiers from Huntingdon county were en gaged. They fought and - fell,' not only on that line runningdirectly south of us to the Potomac and beyond--net only in those con tests which could almost be heard roverbeia ting among your own hills—not only at Get tysburg, but at Chickamauga—not only in the Wilderness and at iiichmond,but at Look out Mountain, at Missionary Ridge, at Boso m, at KO/108(M, (111(1 at Atlanta. They were in from the &rat to the last, and went out not until the rebel chieftain had surrendered'for ever the' miserable pretensions tb nationality that had been made by the pseudo power he represented. Nothing , Its.been more thoroughly tried and proved la experience than the qualities of the American soldier. So numerous, in deed, are the evidences of his courage, his in trepidity, and his steadinessin battle, that it isimpossible to fell what particular instance most demonstrates his Merits. Ile has been described as the civilized, sober, well educa ted citizen, animated with the consciousness that he, was fighting fora great cause, in the success of which he and his children had a deep, personal interest, and who learned obe dience because both his common sense and his sense of duty recognized the necessity. I have said that he has returned to his peace ful avocation. Long may it be until he shall be called from it again. But we may feel a safe reliance on his strong arm, if it shall ever hereafter be needed to defend our coun try's interests against any foe, he it British dominion on the north of us, Mexican anar archy on the south, or Spanish despotism on the islands of the se.i. The presence of so many of the people of this community and county hero to-day, shows that our eyes have not grown dull, our hands slack, nor our hearts cold in this sa cred trust. The spirit that has brought us here, is very similar to that which has been displayed in other places by the erection of memorials to render secure and enduring the name and fume of our heroic fallen. How soon shall a monument rise heavenward from this ground to acquaint future generations with the mighty deeds that have been done in these days! Let us, in the first place, per petuate the records of the men who accom plished this great work, and then transmit a knowledge of the means by which it was done. Let the hardships - that have been endured, the difficulties that have been encountered, the perils that have been met, the examples of unselfish patriotism that have been given, and the romance that has been added to the story of the human race, go down together, unforgotten, through nll coming time. I would embody in marble and brass the senti ment of the poet; "Abek arbentlieir statues are placed on high Under filo dorm nt tho Union sky,— Thu American soldier's temple of Fame, There Aria. the glorious General's name, Ile it said in letters both bold and bright . Hers is Vic steed Mae saved the day By earr,ying Sheridan into thefighl From ifinc4ester—twenty miles away." I cannot believe that any fail to realize and appreciate the sacrifice that has been made in defense of our personal safety, in mainte nance of free government and in support Of the integrity of the Union. Though we are not here to do honor in the durable and last ing manner in which it should be bestowed, though this ceremony is to be plain and Un ostentatious, yet we may trust that it will so sink into our hearts that the glory of their deeds and the light of their example will never fade. After the address the Orphans sang a' piece entitled "O'er my Father's Grave,"after which the following poem was read by Mr. Robert McDivitt: DECORATION POEM BY CORPORAL 1. J. ATI:ANSON' COMO I -cliff-girt Juniata, Thy pities' /Dam moan! Some "Storied Urn or Statue," Shall cheer the gloom Of their dark tomb,— The good who bled,— Thy honored Dead And bravo of "Standing Stone." When Freedom's loud Reveille Stirred Gettysburg's dark field ; And Fiend of fell Rebellion Piled hill and plain With her brave slain;— Their memories claim A greener fame Than stone and marble yield. Comrades in death shall greet them From many a field of gore,— Bull Run and red Ardlotatn,— Whore fierce the strife 'Gainst Freedom's life, By Heaven accurst, In thunder burst Above Potomac's your. From Hundred of Bermuda, From Richmond and Shiloh, Atlanta, Chattanooga To patriot eyes, Her heroes rise f-- From every sod Pale Freedom trod— In those dark days of woe. Shades of departed soldiers! "Comrades of battle" elain ! Though the marred body moulders In earth to rust— Yet, o'er your dust— Shall laughing May And Flora gay, Their wreathe and laurels train. When blushing, Borealis, To north, wins Sol abroad; Spring peeps o'er hilts and valleys; With emerald sheen To dock the green Sward of the grave, Whore sleep the breve Till roused by tramp of God. So as, from east, Aurora Gilds earth with gorgeous day, May soldiers' graves of glory, Through tears and blood, in beauty—bud; And fragrant floyfpr,l, In crimson ehtivrera, Be wept upon their cloy. The members of the Post at this place then formed in lino and marched to the graves of the soldiers, where they strewed the flowers and wreaths. The ceremonies throughout were conducted in an acceptable manner— only one objection and that was the want of shade where the speaker stood —and the large number itkattendaucc, from near and far,'appear4 grafifiod that they witnessed the voceeciinvs, — MI Vh9 are a \19,0 , 9f 1 9 00 ave Cutlery, c., go A.

Their visit has been as already reniarked, an 'occasion of great pleasure to them and to all our citizens. But it has been more than this. It has dispelled a vast amount of prejudice against the system which established and niaintaink. these Or phan Schools, and our people have learned by eye and ear experience that 'the Cassville.Sehool, is one ,of,the best, if not the very boat, of its Class.

The station spoken of must have been Huntingdon, that being the only station between Mifflin and Altoona where trains stop long enough to allow passengers to partake of refreshments. The belt was cut and slipped off'. Another German having paid fair in the cars (an unusual occurrence among emi grants) to this city, on the arrival of the train suspicion rested upon him, but after diligent search, no clue what ever' could be found to his whereabouts —Altoona _Radical. A Scare• At a late hour on Wednesday night last a number of citizens of our town were'aroused by an agonizing cry of "Oh I" which was continued about eight or ton times. The fears of those who heard it were awakened, and a . dozen or more Caine to the Franklin House to see -what vas the matter.— The lower rooms were searched, but nothing was seen to verify the =suspi cions of some that a murder or 'some other awful tragedy had been commit Led. We were on the grounds ready to take notes, but our calculations in regard to something terrible to tell our readers, were somewhat frustrated by being informed that the unearthly noise was occasioned by a man in ono of the upper rooms of the hotel, who it is said makes such yells in his sleep.

We have intimated that it depends upon what a man in yests.in, and the discretion - be uses. A man might throw his money away, very easily: For instance; somebody wants to make a speculation in oil, or in some other imaginary article (for which it requires a great deal of faith to realize the substance,) and away men go after the fancy idol, and in, the and they lose their money, in a major ity of instances. In this connection we might also mention lotteries, where a man will go ten or more dollars in the wild. dream 'of ,realizing ten thou sand.", Numberless other - ways might tie,Montioned, but ono which claims particular, attention, and which we hinted ae,before is. the too great desire of many. to follow in the same steps of another, instead of taking some other direction; in other words the folly of too many in starting the same kind of int - sinus. - ,We have noticed that in our town no new thing lasts a year of it self. An enterprising man sees what the town wants, and ho goes to the expense and trouble of getting it. When once in operation the hawks are around to find out whether it pays,and Wit does, np starts a few more institu tions of the same kind, - which has the effect of disheartening the enterpris ing man, and fooling those who expec ted to make a fortune. Of course, the people are the gainers of the competi tion that immediately follows, but would it not be wiser for those who have money to invest to give it to, some new object? IMPROVEMENT.
