No monuments Of art survive the ravages
aE'en marble moulders-stsrn decay

of time. .1s
"Een marble moulders-stern decay t'
Wears monumental works away"
But the influence men exert will live
long after they have gone to their final
account. No matter whether that influ-
ence is for good or evil, it survives the
dissolution of the mortal body, and out
lives the proudest monuments that hu-
man labor has ever reared, or artistic skill
has devoted. In word, this influence
will be almost as undying as the soul it's
elf, and the records Of eternity can alone
unfold the real magnitude.
But we hasten TO close this imperfect
sketch. The select tenants Of the grave
have no longer any part TO act on earth
but we have duties 10 perform, and it i:
in the power Of every one 10 contribute
something towards the general good o.
the world in which he lives, and espe
cially to the community in which he re
sides. May we be stimulated 10 indus
try by the remembrance of the fact, tha
time is short! May we be siudiously
upright in our department from the fact
that our influence is, and will continue I
be felt long after we are dead. May W
study the histories Of the departed, Il
avoid their faults and initiate their virtues
