Extraordinary Enlerprise--A Grave
Subject,

We are informed that the new Sex.
ten has prepared very large lot Of
fresh dug graves, which the corporate
authorities will dispose Of to these
desiring to secure a last resting place,
upon very reasonable terms. We
learn that some twenty or thirty Of
assorted lengths are already prepared
and can now be rented. Those de-
string graves are requested to apply
Immediately, as in the case of a heavy
rain the graves might cave in, which
would of course create the necessity
for an advance in price. The fact is.
the corporation is just now oyerstock.
ed with ready-made graves. A
committee of the council instruct
ing the new sexton in the duties Of
his Office, informed him that it would
be bis province to have the graves
prepared in the city Cemetery. He
took them ut their word aud went TO
work, and before the misunderstood
ing was discovered, had wholesale
lot on hand. As the quantity Of
graves will be more than sufficient
foy our population for some time to
come, persons at a distance intend
Il ing to die before the next rain can
be accommodated With graves at cost.

Mr.. Fl. a. nj. Henderson, of Per-

through the Northern and Eastern
States, in letter TO toe Marion
Commonwealth, dated at Dover, n.
H., August 18th, thus speaks of the

1.-The Democrats Of the North

the South up this way. do net say
this as partizan. (for ] am net a
Democrat upon several issues, but

The national Democrats have
much to contend against, and de-
serve honor from the South for so

rights Of all the States, The great

Opposition Platforms.

1t is a very easy matter nowadays
to fix up a platform for the Opposi-
ton party. With slight variations
they run as follows:
Resolred, That the Democratic
party must be got out of power.
Resolucd, That the present admin
istration. by its reckless extraya.
gance, is fast running the country.
Resolped, That the Opposition par
ty contains all the political honor aud
integrity now extant.
Resolued, That the welfare of ouI
country and the rst of mankind
Iimperatively demands that We gel
into power as soon as possible.
Res0lced, That we adopt all and
any means to secure 20 ourselves the
spells of this Union-and there the
thing ends. There is sometimes a
little variation, butt is very slight.
