The Grave of Jas. Madison Opened How
The Corpse Looked.

The Richmond South gives an interesting
account Of the opening of the grave of Jas.
Madison, for the purpose of laying the foun-
dation of monument to his memory. Here
is description of the monument:
The monument is of James river granite,
in form an obelisk, and as graceful and ap-
propriate as anything could be. 1t is COM
posed of seven pieces Of stone, two Of which
measure five feet seven, and weigh over
nine thousand pounds; two Others four feet
by two feet, weigh over six thousand pounds;
another two feet ten inches by two feet,
weighs three thousand pounds; and another
thirteen feet long, twenty-five inches at its
base and thirteen inches at its top, weighs
one thousand pounds. The gross weight of
the entire monument is about 80 900 pounds.
1t rises just twenty four feet above the level
of the burying ground. The height of the
monument proper is just twenty-five feet
six inches, but the foundation on which it
rests being raised some eighteen inches a.
bove the surface, adds that much 10 the ap-
parent height of the monument. About nine
feet from the base is chiseled the following
inscription:
