REMOVING THE DEAD BODIES FROM THE GRAVE
YARD IN THE VICINITY THE PosroFFIcE-We
perceive that several of the vaults have been opened
in the vicinity of the Postofce, and the bodies
have been removed TO the burial grounds in the Wei
nity of the city Some TO St. Marks Church-some
to East and West Chester and elsewhere. 1t is to
be regretted that the friends of those who have been
buried in this quarter had not decided this step
before the opening of the new Postoflce-and at
season OF the year suited for the purpose than
the present warm weather. The Postoffice, as place
of public resort, is connualy crowded from morning
10 night, and the offensive odor arising from the
vaults when opened may prove dangerous in this sui
try weather. We can appreciate those commendable
feelings which prompt the true respect for the
ra ashes of the dead which should always sleep in
sacred repose and, doubtless the vaults in this old
burial ground wieventually all be opened, and the
bodies removed to more calm and solemn resting
place, we would advise more appropriate season
than the present for such purpose. Mr.. Disbrow,
the sexton, being home, and the grave-diggers
the not being able to give any information to our
Reporter to whether or not il was intended to
continue any further the opening of the vaults or any
thing definite on the subject.
