NOTICE.—Our readers will ob serve that there is a grand Opening to-day at Haldeman's popular dry goods store, of Ladies black Silk Sacques and Mantles, which they have just received. Their as sortment includes all the very newest and choicest styles for this season, and at a great reduction in prices. The Messrs. Haldeman also exhibit a splendid line of Shawls. The beautiful Ristori Shawls in every variety of stripes and plain centres. Silk Shawls, Cashmere and Paisley shawls, and new bargains in all kinds of Dress Goods. Here is an example of what imagination will do. Two gentleman called upon one of their neighbors to pay their respects. The hostess sent to Bob Hamilton's for the whiskey, pronouncing it the best eight een year old whisky they had ever tasted, and that such liquor was a rare luxury, tt:c., They could not restrain their et pres sions of gratification, but went down street smacking their lips, until they met Bob who opened their eyes by informing them that it was 75 cent whisky a little over a year old. How's that for high? TITERT: is danger of soon having thi most disorderly, rude and rowdyish boys and young men in Columbia, that ever con stituted a portion of our population. If any one doubts the assertion, let him go to an entertainment at Odd Fellows' ball, no mat ter what day of the week. Tho moment these boys are inside the Hall, they act as if the Hall was exclusively their own, and that the entertainment, whatever it may be was gotten up to contribute alone to their enjoyment. They whistle, stamp, scream out, eat peanuts and are guilty of all other imaginable misdemeanors. In fact the boys have become such a nuisance, that they should either be excluded from the Hall altogether, or be attended there by their parents. Constable McGinnis ought to arrest at least ono half of them and put them in the lock-up. We never saw such boys. We are almost led to believe that their training at home is reflected by their conduct in public, on the street, and in the Hall. Several citizens have requested us to secure the names of these wicked boys (some of them are approaching manhood too) and publish them, and we propose to do it at an early day. It is unendurable, and this evil, is among the greatest causes for the reluctane—• of any respectable citizen to attend anattertainment at the Hall with his family. They should be dealt with summarily, and this unendurable nuisance promptly abated. TICE cheapest and best placo to buy cloth ing and Gent's. Furnishing goods is at Bachenheimer•s. TILE PUBLIC Smoot.

A PLAIN Dt-rv.—The prosperity of a town depends not only on the individual energy of her citizens, but also on their co operation. The interests of a place should be felt to be the interest of each citizen, and whatever can be done to advance the growth prosperity, and wealth of Columbia, should receive the cheerful snpport of everyone. The want of a more bountifully supplied market has long been felt. The prices ob tained here are proportionally higher than in any town or village in the county. The natural cause or this is that the supply is not equal to the demand. At this time business in the manufacturing line, may be said to be active. The rolling mills are both running, though not full. All the fur naces except one, and that not in town, aro in full blast ; the planing mills are over run with work, employing extra hands; other inter ests too have brought a greater number of persons to town than usual. These accessions swell our population, and demand a greater supply of provisions, Yet has that supply increased? We are of the opinion that there has been rather a di minution, as the $lO,OO license tax has had a tendency to keep an occasional caterer from the market. The remedy lies in appeals to our country friends, through the papers, through per sonal representations, &c. Much of the produce which now goes to Lancaster ought to come here, and if the farmers but know that it is to their advantage to sell here, and invest again with Columbia mer chants a reaction might set in. Farm pro duce commands from 10 to 20 per cent. higher prices hero than in Lancaster, and prices of store commodities aro equally low, and in many cases lower. Let the larmer study his interests and seek a mar ket for his produce just where ho can com mand the highest rates. Let every citizen try to impress this fact on his farmer friends and a be:ter supplied market will be secur ed. In addition to these public and indi vidual efforts, council will officially sanc tion these facts and urge them upon the attention of the people.

The base of the stack being forced away the stack drop ped to the ground floor of the mill. It oc curred at a time when the smallest number of workmen wore in the mill or the result would have been terrible. As it was about a dozen were standing or working near at the time of the collapse, some of whom were dangerously, and two fatally injured. Amos Hess, aged about .IS years, a son of Christian Hess of this place, who was standing at the rollers, with an iron hook in his hand, received the severest injuries. Ho was stripped entirely of his clothing his whole body except his feet being scalded. The story that he was driven head foremost through the spindles is a mistake—no such testimony could be reached during the cor oner's investigation. It was the invention of terrified workmen. He died about 3 o'clock in the afternoon. John Albright, son of Peter Albright, on Fifth street, aged 16 was scalded very badly and though perfectly free from bruises, died about ten o'clock in the evening. John Mentzer, aged about 16, son of widow Mentzer on Union street, was another victim. Ho was badly scalded,but hopes are entertained of his recovery. Michael McCall was the fourth victim. He was standing near the furnace ; a steam pipe fell across him, which resting on a support kept the debris from crushing him. George Beaver, was scalded and cut about the head, but not dangerously ;seyeral others were,but not seriously,injured. Had the ac- cident occurred an hour or even half an hour later the result would have beonterrible. The night men were preparing to go home, and in about half an hour, the day men would have been on duty. The funeral of John Albright, took place this Friday afternoon, and was largely at tended. The reports sent over the country were extrayagantly exaggerated. In Lancaster it was reported that 100 mon were killed, and the mill a mass of ruins. In Middle town rumor had 50 men killed and as many dangerously wounded; sad as it was, we feel grateful that it was no worse. Deputy Coroner Fraley summoned a j ury consisting of C. J. :Course, Thos. Supplce, G. T. Fobes, George Young Jr., Hiram. Wilson and J. W. Yocum to investigate the cause of death ,Cc., of Albright and Hess. The jury met on Wednesday morning at S o'clock and after visiting the remains of the two deceased, proceeded to the Roll- ing mill and held an inquest of the cause of death, together with an investigation into tit diets attending the collapse, &c. We give the principal evidence. Dr. Alex. Craig, affirmed, stated that he bad examined Hess, was scalded over the entire surface of the body, except his feet two bruises on his back, two on his breast. Death caused by shock of collapse,no reac tion; examined Albright, who was without marks of any kind, was scalded mostly along back and limbs. Died of shock, no reaction. These were the only deaths he knew of. George Eager, sworn. I am Heater at No. 3 Furnace, was standing at furnace when explosion occurred. The water tender, Potts, had just come dowh from No. 4 holler and passed over towards No. S. The night watchman had just passed as explosion took place. All ran out of the mill except Mentz-r and McCall, pipe lying on McCall, I pulled him out. Did not see Hess after taking McCall out. Think that the holler had not sufficient water. Shock occured at 3: 10. Potts, water tender, went to boiler only a few moments before explosion. Usually goes up every 10 or 15 minutes. Blast was on . Explosion occured only e minute or so after Potts was up. Harrison Rowo sworn—Testified to the fact that sixty - five lbs. of steam are goner buy - carried";dia One - Rnow if steam was shut off from main steam pipe or not. Tobias Mauningsworn. I am day water tender. Fire went out of furnace at 2 oclock P. M. on Monday; left two solid gauges of water. Tender ought not to be more than ten or fifteen minutes from boiler. All the boilers had water-check valves except Nos. 3 and 3, they had water-stop valves. They have not been known to rob each other of water. The explosion was caused by want of sufficient water. Never knew of the boiler foaming. Wm. Madden sworn, Ant a laborer, take ashes the furnace, steam was cut off, and Potts know it as he admitted it. T. Skeen, sworn, believes that low water was cause of collapse. Iron of flues 3-16 of an inch thick, contained several flaws, such as most iron contains, though not such as could be detected. Iron looks good ; thinks that the boiler with proper care was safe. C. S. Kauffman affirmed that he considers boiler a good one, in good conuition. The disaster resulted from collapse, for want of water,and in sudden heating of flues. Benj. E. Jenkins, sworn. I saw Albright running out towards the pig iron fence,with back naked, clothes torn off by steam. Hess passed me also with back naked. Geo. Shintou sworn. lAm a heater. 'My opinion is that there was too little water in boiler. Boilers have been working right all along, the boilers did not rob each other of water. EMCEE IiEM George Getz, sworn, I Am engineer,night turn. Potts came to me about five minutes before explosion and told me that no was about to connect boiler with main steam pipe. It was not customary to disconnect. Saw Hess in the mill after the explosion. He asked me where he was cut, as the blood was trickling down his neck. The steam at the time of the explosion was lower than at any time during the night; was carrying only 50 lbs. Do not consider Potts compe tent to manage boilers, he does not know enough about them, as he came to me to know bow to force water in when steam was up. He is not as competent as they generally are. After explosion went round with Potts and light weighed all the valves. Owen Matthiot, Sworn. Helper, saw Potts at the boiler often during the morn ing, trying the gunge cock, about every 13 minutes. Ho was frequent and particular in his visits. Never said anything about difficulty in keeping water in the boiler. Henry Decker, Sworn. Am night boss, thought Potts was careful about boiler, though I often cautioned him. Samuel Beaver, and John Thomas were sworn, but developed nothing relative to the explosion. The jury then adjourned till 4 o'clock, I' M., when Wm. K. Pott.:;, the water tender testified as follows : I went on duty at 3 o'clock, my regular time is G. Boiler was full to top gnage,was at boiler ono minute before explosion. The water pipes of Nos. 3 and 4 are connected, with no check valves between. Was water tender one year at. Harrisburg car shops ; had four boilers there. Had thirteen:boilers in this mill, never had any treable in keep ing water up. When boilers were full I stop ped the water off. Had no trouble in tak ing water. Safety valve always worked ; put no additional weight on safety valves, though there were such weights. Charged boiler at 3 o'clock, steam stop valve was shut off, no connection with main steam pipe. Never saw the boiler blow off. Had tried safety valve and always found it work ing right. Had not moved weight on valve lever fur a week. I did not consider my self thoroughly competent, but at first de pended on Manning. I tried the water gunge only about ono minute before the ex plosion. Was at No 5 when explosion oc curred. George Shinton, recalled ; I always look ed at the safety valves, us I felt more secure if they were right; I have heard _No. 4 boil er blow-off. At the time of explosion the weight was about 4 inches from the end, At times I thought there was danger and called the attention of the water tender to the blue steam. Mr. Manning recalled, stated, that the weight was 22 inches from pin where safety valve lever rests on valve. Zimmerman Supple° affirmed, exhibited a drawing of the valve; length of lever from fulcrum to end 31 inches. The ball weight 85 lbs. At time of explosion weight 22 inches from fulcrium ; to raise valve and allow steam to blow of would require OS} lbs., of steam and if weight was at the end it would require 130 lbs. ; would not consider the boiler safe with 081 lbs., of steam. George Getz,recallecl, stated that he never saw the steam guage indicate more than 70 lbs. In answer to the question whether that collapse could have taken place, when the boiler was full of Water, and the valve prop erly adjusted Mr. Supplee answered that it might; and in answer to the question whether the steam gunge at the engine would really indicate the steam pressure in the boiler, ho replied that he could not tell, us considerable friction and condensation would result in the passage of the steam to the engine. The jury rendered a verdict as follows : "That the deceased came to his death from scalds and other wounds received from the effects of the collapse of a flue in boiler No. 4 at C. S. Maltby's Rolling Mill at Colum bia, Pa., on Tuesday morning at 3 o'clock May 31, 1370. Prom the testimony given thejury is unable to decide whether the col lapse of the flue resulted from low water or undue pressure, but it is our opinion that the shutting off of said boiler from the main steam pipe was wrong, also that the iron in the flue of said boiler was too thin, that the boiler would have been safer if there hal been regular check valves to each of the boilers in addition to the waterstop valve, so as to prevent the possibility of the water being driven by pressure from one boiler to the other; also that the boiler would havebeen safer if the gunge cocks had been placed higher."

TUE DEcon vrioN Clial,nl.3NlF.3.—Morida y was observed all over the country as the memorial floral tribute to the memories of our fallen Heroes. The arrangements in charge of the different committees having been completed, the ceremonies passed off pleasantly, all classes of citizens participa ting. The line was formed at Odd Fellows' Hall, along Second street, right resting on Locust. All places of business were closed and the town had put on her holiday attire. At precisely four o'clock the procession moved up Locust street with solemn and measured tread to the cemetery, in the fol- owing order: Chief Marshal—S. S. Clair Assistants—W. t-I. Ptahler, S. B. Clepper School Board, Columbia Cornet Band, Delegation of Junior Mechanics bearing the contribution of Flowers. Clergy anti. C. P. Shreiner.

Wike, Marshal. Delegation of Citizens. At the cemetery, the column halted near the Soldier's lot where the different delega tions were formed in mass in front of the sneaker's stand. The Band then played a dirge while the soldier's assisted by the following named youngladies, Misses Alice Herr, Lillie Welsh, Alice Vache, Josie Pat ton, Annie Fendrieb, Della Strickler, Em ma Erwin, Lizzie Graver and Rose Mason, proceeded. to strew flowers on the grayes. Loving hands had already placed choice flowers on the tomb and many, were liter ally covered with roses immortelles, arbor vitae, ‘3.. The ceremony was very affect ing and the moistened oyes testified to the deep affection entertained for the sacred dead. From 4000 to 5000 persons had gathered in the cemetery and so dense was the crowd that it was difficult for the soldiers to per il:MlTl their sad duty. We never before wit nessed such a spontaneous out-pouring of the people. The Quartette sang, " O'er the graves of the loved ones, Plant Beautiful flowers." just as the ceremonies of decoration were coucluded. As the soldiers and young ladies approach ed the stand Mr. Chas. P. Shreiner offered up the following prayer : 0 ! Thou great and adorable Jehovah, King of Kings and Lord of Lords; we the creatures of Thy care and the ob jects of Thy love, would humbly come into Thy presence and supplicate Thy di vine blessings upon the solemn exercises of this day. Spared again as we have been, through another year from the ravages of war, dn.- ease mid death, and surrounded on every hand by the tokens of Thy love and good ness, we would heartily thank Thee, the Giver of all good, that we are permitted again to perform this sad, but beautiful service over the graves of our fallen com rades. 0 ! Lord our Heavenly Father meet Thou with us! Solemnize our thoughts its we are here gathered together at the graves of the nation's honored dead to decorate them with earth's fairest flow ers, and may we here remember their weary mama, hard fought battles, self-sac rificing devotion to duty, and noble deaths; that their many virtues may be enshrined iu our hearts, and the land they died to save may ever be the " land of the free and the home of the brave." Do Thou O! Lord give us hearts thud shall he thankful for all the privileges we enjoy and for what these brave men have secur ed to us, and may we who are yet living dedicate ourselves anew to the service of our common country, for which these brave but fallen :men. have died. And we would not forget in these soldinn exercises the widow and the orphan of these heroes. O Thou! who art the Judge of the widow and father of the fatherless, take these into Thy care and keeping and may Thy Wee:s ing, rest richly upon them, that want and distress may never enter their dwellings, and may their children become the honor ed sons and daughters of an honored coun try. Do Thou, 0 Lord, bless the surviving soldiers and those who have assembled here to pay this sad tribute to the dead sol dier of the Republic. May we their com panions emulate their noble example and ever cherish their memory green in our hearts, and may the tires of liberty ever be kept burning in all our hearts, and wo be found ever true to the principles for which our friends and brothers died. May this land be preserved ln its greatness and pu rity and be the land that Thou, 0 ! Lord. wilt own and bless, and may it long live nd be the home and asylum for the down trodden and oppressed of all lands. Bless, Oh, Lord ! our whole country, from North to South, from East to 'West and may Union and Peace and Brotherly Love abound among all the people, that we may fatal the high destiny Thou bast marked out for us, and leave for coining generations a noble Country for which noble men fought . and died. Conduct the further exercises of this day to Thy praise and the good or the people, and when wo come to pass away, may we triumph over the last enemy— death—and in that aingdom where flowers never fade and war's dread alarm is not heard, may we all meet again, with those who have gone before and who have come up out of great tribulation, having fought a good fight and are safe in the mansions of eternal peace. These blessings we ask In the name of our great Redeemer. Anion. The choir under the direction of Mr. Thos. Supplee then sang the following hymn to the tune of Martin. Wreaths we bring that n'er shall fade, Greener with the passing years, Brighter for our sorrow's shade, Jewelled with our falling tears. Dying that the truth might live, Here they rest in Freedom's name, Giving all that man can give— Live for Glory's deathless fame. Bend in love, 0 azure sky ! Shine, 0 stars! at evening time ! Watch where heroes calmly lie, Clothed with faith and hope sublime God of nation, bless the land Thou hest saved to make us free ! Guide us with thy mighty hand. Till all lands shall come to Thee I Maj. A. C. Reinmhl, the orator of the day was then introduced who delivered the fol lowing oration: COMRADES, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.— In the short but eventful history of our country, there aro days, the annual return of which are tilled with thrilling interest. The Fourth of July, the birthday of Amer ican Freedom has ever been celebrated with wild and unrepressed entuusiasm. On this day eloquence indulges in its lofti est flights, music with its loudest notes fills the ear with national airs that thrill every heart, and the eye brightens with pride as it rests on the stars and stripes floating from window and house-top. The irrepressible spirit of the people that crush ed kingly despotism on the American soil is everywhere effervescing in jubilations.— Coining down to later times, we recur on the Bth of January to the crushing defeat the insolent British invaders received at Now Orleans, and on the eend of February with social festivities celebrate the birth day of him who was " First in war, first in peace and first in the hearts of his ountry men." And crowded into the History of the Re bellion which tilled these graves, are many days which will be the theme of the painter and poet; the 15th of April, 1861, when like the bugle blast of Rhoderic Dhu, the Proc lamation of Lincoln called the freemen of the North to arms, and sunrise of the 10th shone on bristling bayonets slanting toward the Potomac ; the Ist of January 1803, when the Proclamation of Lincoln struck the clanking chains from four mil lions of slaves, acid angels touched their harps at the triumph of right over the wrong of a nation ; the 9th of April, 1865, when under the apple tree of the Appomat tox, Lee surrendered to Grant, and the de feated Confederacy folded its stars and bars, and laid them to rest forever on the stacked arms of the Rebellion.—These and many other days will on each recurring Year recall events of a period of the world's history -which future generations will re gard with wonder and with awe. And among these days custom has now established Decoration Day. As the violet springs up among the fragments of the bro ken cannon wheels crumbling from sight in the wilderness, and as the vile trails over the picket's gopher hole on the Appomat tox, so the beautiful customs of t3-day have gradually bloomed forth in the rugged hearts o f the surviving veterans of the Un ion Army, hearts of steel hardened in the fierce furn ace blasts of war. h a t time so touchingly appropriate And as this, to strew with bright, sweet flowers the t rloydingirearv,es. After the long dreary the storms of March and ‘ a n e sa ' e reign of i f e f is April nature dons her bright estare clad in gay verdure, fitft g i rains n s i c) ? (blos s)oruntr,dvsoolicriehtsniadoseN.-9,oollonldwfirtahgrbtitrndts%,Vain with the murmurs of spark i lull siindgesrligs mund sical so in this joyous season, years of Rebellion, the and the fitful out burstsand order having been established permit a storms th o; r i e ‘ e . nently, we come survivors of the war to of conquered but defiant rebels,peace re call the memories of the past, by the side of i o n n t s ry truction. these graves, and to pledge anew our fidel ity to the Governme - it of our etthers. To-day in every cemotet - y of the land, thousands of comrades are gathered. Gen eral and and private stand side by side. There is no clangor of trumpets now, no tong roll calling to arms, no hurried grasp ing of muskets and fixing of bayonets. no fulling into line,and chargingyell of infant ry in the woods, no cracking carbine and clanging sabre of sweeping cavalry squad rons. The sabre and the musket hang qui tetly rusting on the wall, and the bugle that sounded the wild charge of dashing Phil. Sheridan now hangs as mute as " The harp that once in Fara's halls The soul of music shed." The feet of comrades that followed the drum from the Potomac to the Rio Grande now move carefully to-day among the grassy mounds of sleeping braves, and hands that for years grasped with nerves of steel the sabre and the musket, to-day are filled with flowers of love ; hearts that in years gone say never quailed in battle, to-day grow ten der,and eyes of brave men that often blazed in the conflict are to-day dimmed with tears "Grim vissaged war has smoothed his wrinkled front"—and Mars brings Flora's offering for the slain. And since we lest performed these touch ing solemn rites, Death has mustered out many of our comrades. One year ago Gen. Rawlins the well beloved Adjutant of the victorious Chief of the War, stood in the sunlight that rested on the grave of Arling ton Cemetery. and listening to the requiem of the fiend that silvery voices chanted, hoped that they might sing it by his grave. And to-day the strains of the dirge float over the remains of the chivalric patriot Rawlins whose spirit has joined the Grand Army which has passed over the Potomac of death Ono year ago the burly form of Thomas, whom the boys loved as a father, stood by the graves of those who had followed him to glory. To-day he too sleeps, while Co lumbia-with head uncovered kneels by his tomb and mourns. And yet there is a grandner in thought that when the tidings of his death swept over the land, the wires thrilling with sorrow stretched not over a Union his valor helped to s.tve. Yes, while from the Pacific slope came the sad words, "Pap Thomas is dead," came also the thought, ho died on the utmost verge of a country which his patriotism had helped to preserve in its glorious and unity, and the mourners at the Golden Gate and among the pine forests of Maine felt united by a common sorrow. Thomas, of whom Rosencrnns in his re port of the battle of Chicamauga styled the "t rue soldier, the prudent and undaunted commander, the modest and incorruptible patriot," who during the war never fora day lett his post has at last been relieved from duty by the Great Commander, and we trust is quartered forever in the barracks of the blest. And here to-day it seems to me wo see the full three of the oft quoted classic line, Duke et &corum est, pro patria mori. In each grave grows a root of the tree of Liberty. Moistened by their blood it grows in lasting beauty. The canker worms of slavery and treason which had silentlysap- ' ped its life have been cut out by the knife of war. Its branches are shooting higher and spreading wider. Where they droop over the slopes of the Pacific the 'Mongolian byes h.in,g through the great wall which for centuries shut him out from the world has sought shelter. And hero for ages to come let us trust under time protection of Him who led the children of Israel through the Red Sea. and this favored nation through the equally great perils surrounding it, the oppressed of all nations may find safety and protection. The integrity of a free govern ment rests in the virtue and patriotism of the people, and us long as un educated, in telligent people shall be actuated by the principles which led these heroes forth with their lives in their hands, and as long as the corner stone of the Temple rests on Christianity, so long shall American Liber ty flourish to bless the world. And looking around me here to-day, I see present those who can and must wield a powerful influence for good in our coun try, I me-as the patriotic Christian women of America. And there can be no more appropriate time qr opportunity to refer to their many deeds and noble conduct dur ing the war and since. How often during this bloody rebellion were their fair hands busied in preparing comforts to send to the front to cheer those who stood between them and war's wild desolation, and how often have their gifts come precious as heaven sent manna to camps where men lay depressed by defeat or worn by battle. And the soldier as he received some delicacy to which for months he had been a stranger, or took to his tont some comfort bag containing perhaps a pa triotic letter of encouragement from some unknown fair one, forgot fort he time, the realities of camp and trench. Ho beard not the distant picket shot, the low rumble of artillery moving into position for the morning battle, but his mind reverted once more to the green mountains of New Eng land, or the sunny meadows and fertile fields of his own native Keystone, and he felt that he was not forgotten. but that warm hearts throbbed with delight at his victories, or bright eyes filled with tears at his defeats. The Loyal women of America! History has no brighter name. True, the blood warms when we read of the rugged patri otism of the Spartan mother. "Eight sons Demaenetus to Sparta gave. All lighting tell, all filled a common grave. No tear shed she, but shouted, 'Victory Sparta, I bore them but to die for thee." Such women gave to Greece. a nation of heroes —such men as Epaminondas, who calmly drew the spear from his side and died, and Leonidas who with his three hundred stood nt Thermopylm, and held at bay the count less hosts of his country invaders, until only one man was left to tell the tale. And the annals of Rome shine with the lustre of Pagan virtue exemplified in such 'characters 'as Lucretia" and Virginia, and the noble Cornelia, lit type of the Roman matron, who would rather be the mother of Gracchi, than accept the proffered throne of Egypt. But the character and patriotism of tile American Women shines in History like the pure light of Bethlehem's Star, for it is ennobled and exalted by that spirit without which even the character of the Spartan mother or the nobler Roman matron was imperfect—the spirit inparted by the teach ings of christiamty. This has shed an undy ing lustre around the character of our country-women; this has given us the names of such women as Miss Dix, soften ing the horrors of the hospital, and Clare Barton, tenderly gathering the bones of our butchered brothers at Andersonville and Salisbury, and marking the graves of these martyrs of universal freedom. It was this that made our mothers, wives au sis ters, brave-hearted patriotic. Yes, theirs were the true patriot hearts of thkg war. We, in the field, had much to nerve us— Pride, glory, promotion, while in thoasands of homes, throughout the land, sat silent women, "waiting for the war to cease s " starting at each sound from the front, hop ing best, yet fearing for the worst. And when the death message came of a son or brother fallen at Gettysburg or starved at Andersonville, or a son, the pride of the family, dying in the hospital, there was a patient folding of hands, a heart-broken resignation, an humble "God's will be done," so that the Union he preserved and treason be made crime and traitor punish ed. And while their fair hands on each re turning May prepare the wreaths that deck these mounds, may their lips ever teach the young and rising generation what a precious heritage it is to be an American citizen and standing here, let them learn that the sacred rights of a free people were only preserved by tilling graves like these. After the oration the choir sang the fol lowing hymn to the tune old Old Hundred: Blest are the martyred dead who lie In holy graves for Freedom won, Whose storied deeds shall never die, While coming years their circles run. Blest be the ground where heroes sleep, And blest the flag that o'er them waves, Its radiant stars their watch shall keep, Anti brightly beam on hallowed graves. Year after veer our hands shall bear Immortal - dowers in vernal bloom, Till God shall call us home to share Immortal life beyond the tomb. Our Father, all the praise be thine ! Thy glace and goodness we adore: Bless our dear land with love divine, And shed thy peace from shore to shore Rev. G. M. Rhodes of the E. E. Luthera. church then made a prayer after which the band played an appropriate selection. Rev. B. J. Douglass offered up the benediction after which the procession reformed, and returned to town. The observance of the day was general, and a fitting tribute to American heroism. This day will soon be recognized as the me morial day of the victories of the rebellion.
