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 young.

Wb were lately told an incident which actual ly occurred In a raral district, a short lime ago, not far from here, which is entirety too good to be lost.

', 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.
