Dkcobatio Dat. Friday last was generally
observed as a holiday by our cltlsens, who every
year manifest more and more lnterett Id tho sub
lime custom of strewing flower upon th gravel
of our departed beroc. The day was cloudy,
and threatened rahi, yet with all this nnfavora-ble-weather,
many persons from the country
came to town to assist In paying respectful tri
bute to the gallant heroe who sacrificed their
live for our sacred Institution. The inte
rest manifested on this occasion was truly touch
ing. During the morning many flag wore sus
pended from many buildings, and a number of
bouses wore bandiomcly decorated. After 13
o'clock all business places were olosed, and the
cltlzeus repaired to tht Park on Market Square,
where the cxerctsos opened by prayer by Re?. O.
S. Gearhard of the Reformed Church. An ap
propriate piece of music was then sung by the
Bunbury Glee Club. An address was then deliv
ered by the Hon. John B. Packer, which was at
tentively listened to by several thousand people.
The address of Mr. Packer was the most forci
ble, eloquent and appropriate we have yet heard
on a similar occasion. In speaking of many In
cidents occurring at the commencement of the
war, and his reference to young men leaving
their homes to battle for thilr country, whose
sufferings ho depleted In glowing terms, brought
tears to the eyes of stout men. We regret ex
ceedingly that we could not Induce Mri Packer
to give hi consent to Its publication which Its
excellence merited. After tho address, tho pro
cession was formed by Col. Geo. B. Cadwalladcr,
Chief Mar.hnl, assisted by E. M. Bucher, H. F.
Mann, aud George Hoffman, Assistant Marshals,
It was composed: of tho different organisation,
and passed through several of our principal
streets to the-Ccm'ctery.'accompaulcd by the Bun
bury Cornet Band, and $hc. Seven Points' Cornet
Band. In the Cemetery the procession foi med a
circle around the soldiers' tnohutnent, when Rev.
A. C. Wheat offered up a fervent prayer to the
throne oi Grace. Then followed singing by the
Glee Dub, when the 'Boys lu Blue,' and 13 little
girls dressed In white, deployed to decorate tho
forty-nine graves that exist within the Cemetery.
Afterward? the procession re-formod,aud march
ed to Market Sqnare, when they were dismissed
by the Marrbuls, ' '
Altogether, the day was more gonersllyi'and
more beautifully observed than ever before,
which Indicates that 'Decoration Day' will, as
time ndvauces, hecoma as firmly Axed lit the
hinrts rf the Aiucricau people, as Is Fourth of
July, ns a day of rejoicing over nu event result
ing iu so much national benefit.
To the credit of our town we must mention
that not a case of drunkenness came under our
observation and of course there wus no quar
relling or lighting during the cntiro day. This
was a commeudalile feature of the occasion, and
we fuel Justly proud that niir town hits-shown
such a fncred reverence for the day set apart to
visit and honer the last rusting place of those
who sacrificed so much' for the nation the dead
Union soldiers.
Oru neighbors of Northumberland, have or
ganized a Parlor Dramatic Association, for the
purpose of giving enjoyment to both Old' niid

A visit to tho homo of one's childhood 1 al
ways a more tbhn ordinary pleasure, particular
ly if a long time tins separated ns from the place
of our earliest Itnpresslon. Though many stray
fnf away and select spots which they may be
lieve more agreeable, after straggling with tliu
nffalrs of life, aud tasting of its bitter experience,
tbe heart torus fondly to the home of their early
youth, rendering a visit to the beloved snot,
where they "played their gambols when a child,"
a most agreeable task. "Home Is borne though
ever so homely." With such Inspirations we
ventnred, during the past week, to visit the spot
upon which we passed from Infancy to boyhood--that
halcyon period of life. Leaving onr matters
In chargs of tho "Devil," we started In the cars
for Georgetown, and from thence we proooedod
by private conveyance to the beautiful borough
of Gra'.s, in upper Dauphin, whlohwe left thirty
years ego. Our trip was made more pleasant
over the bills and through the beautiful vales, In
tervening, from the conviction that we had
a safe animal, and a good driver, and most
agreeable companions. Passing along Limestone
Valley, In Lower Mahanoy township, we noticed
the hundreds of limekilns erected for mile along
the road, which looked to ns like hug breast
works, deserted, on some old bat'.lc-fleld. This
valley abounds In riches, and as one looks upon
tho comlortable dwellings, largo barns, nnd the
brood acres of beautiful waiving grain surround
ing them,hc will naturally exclaim these people
have reason to bo happier than kings. The gralu
and grnss throughout this valley looks well, and
Is well advanced. As we proceeded on, we cross
ed th Hoe of Northumherlaad and Dauphin
counties, and entered the borough of Union town,
located upon a rise alongside of a mountain, and
la building up with buildings of a modern stylo.
Tho streets are kept clean, and the sidewalks laid
In the best manner. Stopping at ths Union Ho
tel of Mr. J. Hoffman, we were hospitably enter
taincd. After passing through the gap of the
mountain, we soon came in sight of the old home
stead, known to us In our early days. Proceed
Inir alonir tho road, and vlewinir the beautiful
valley of Lyken. with her majestic mountains
on both sides, we passed many memorable spots
which we once held most dear. Presently we
passed the Ilnrtmnu school house, rememliered
by us as ths place whrc wo wero first taught to
sav our A. B. Cs. t where e received our first
lessons tinder the tuition of Jonas Dietrich, some
thirtv-six years ago. Moving on, we at last ar
rived In the borough of Grots, laid out by Theo
dore Gratis, F.sq., more than half a century ago.
Hlonninsr nt the Gratr. Hotel, kept by Messrs. II.
F. Ileppler it Bro., und alter shaking tho dust
from our garments, we took a stroll through tho
town la search of old acquaintances. Tho majo
rity of the faces were strange to us ; the build
ings all looked different, nnd much iinprovcd,aud
we were forcibly reminded that the hand of pro
gress is inarching onward. But few of the old
builillnsr remain stnmiiui:, but among them is
the old Uniou Church whose pulpit was ably U'.led
forty years ago, by the late Rev. J. P. Sliiudel, of
Snnbury, ami the Into Rev. Isaac Gerhard, oH-v-kens
Valley, the former a Lutheran, and the lat
ter n German Reformed minister. This Chnrch
Is still occupied every Sabbath. In the Ccmotery
adjoining tills God's temple, there is found rest
ing lu peace the remains of many whose faces
were once familiar. In our walk wo met but few
of tho old residents of tlio place, viz : Geo. Hoff
man, Ksq., Henry llolliuan and William Welker,
whose heads have turned white, while their faces
are but little eliamred. (irats contain threo
large stores, two good hotels, and a number of
excellent mechanics, two physicians, who have a
widu reputation for their professional skill, one
of whom Is Dr. Sminkcy, who ably represented
Dauphin euuuiy during tliu last two sessious of
the Legislature. The town is beautifully located,
and is surroundod by a rich agricultural district.
About a mile south of the town is lliu Short
Mountain, which appears te bo nlmnst a solid
bed of semi-liltninlnoii coal. Several rich vein
have been opened, but iinfortniintely for the
owners of the mines, there I" us yet no outlet by
rail to market to fully develop the resources of
that Valley. This much needed branch ro:d,'to
Intersect with the road from Lyken to Millers.
hursr, as nn nutlet, Is prevented from tho fact
ihut two parties arc owners of the lauds, and one
Is waiting npon tbe other to build the road.
Should this branch road be built, Grntz Is destin
ed to become a flourishing town in a Bhnrt time.
Remaining over Sunday to witness tun proeeed-
inu's of u grand parade, and dodlratlou of un
Oiid-Fellow'n Ilall,ou Monday, we were rejoiced
that the day was nploisant one. As early ns
half past six o'clock the people from Iho country
li. l'mii to assemble, and continued to do so until
midday. The Gratx ('orntt Band appeared early,
aud ut i t lie different, Lodges of the Independent
Order of OiM-Fc'.los from the neighboring
towns arrive !, they wero escorted to tho Odd
Fellows' Hall building by Grntz Lodge, No. 6'ill.
Alter dinner, tho members and many of the citi
zens, repaired to the Hall where tbe solemn cere
monies, of dedication were performed by D. D. G.
M.,V. Thomas, of (bat District, uetiug as Grand
Master, assisted by the necessary number of
Past OlUcer of tho Order. Tho ceremonies were
conducted with opeu doors, wero very satisfacto
ry, and went far to remove the prejudice against
sieret soewtica that exist in the public inind.
After tliu dedication of tho Hall, tho Lodge
formed in order, and were inarched, under the
Marsha Wiip ol Dr. I. S. Suiinkcy and Dr. C. E.
Zin ii'K r,to a grove about a mile from towu. Tbe
