TO THE WOMEN OF THE SOUTH:

Richmond is begirt will, an army o.
Confederate dead. The haliowd precincts
OF our cemeteries are rendered still more
sacred by their graves-to be counted
by tens of thousands of martyred heroes;
around us were bloody battle. fields and
here were the most crowded hospitals
The dead of both are sleeping in Holly.
wood and lakewood. Not alone-tbe fall.
len Of Virginia are buried here. Your
loved and lost brave and chivalrous spir-
its, whom we, too learn to love repose
side by side with ours. The greatest
proportion Of your best and bravest
yonng men, cheered by your blessings
and strengthened by your prayers, came
to Virginia to battle for our common
cause.
Many oh :! how many of them fell on
the battle fields or died in hospitals, the
victims Of disease engendered by expos
ures of arduous campaigns /?
There is no country upon whose roll
Of honor shall be inscribed the names of
the Confederate dead. They died for
and with their cause.
Their courage and devotion obtained
the plaudits Of admiring nations. But
it is the recollection of their sufferings,
their patience, and their untimely end /;
that most tenderly endears their memory
to US. Dying they left us the guardian
ship of their graves. 1t is a grateful SER
vice, due alike to them and their s~urviv.
ing friends. Let Us keep green the turf
above their heads and build monuments
to mark for generations yet to come the
place Of their repose.
A society has been formed in the city
of Richmond entitled "The Memorial
Association"
The objects of this society are to col
lect funds to be applied in enclosing, ar
ranging, returning, aud otherwise placing
in order, the graves of the Confederate
dead inferred in the cemeteries of Rich
mond, SO that the names of our fallen
soldiers, may be permanently preserved
from oblivion, and their last resting
places saved from the slightest appear
ance of neglect or want of care.
All persons who make donations for
the purpose Of carrying out the objects
OF this society are enrolled as members
Of the same.
We would respectfully suggest to the
ladies of the South to form auxiliary 50.
cletles, co operating with us in carrying
out the objects above stated. AS soon
as such societies are formed. it
is hoped that they will correspond with

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The GATE Crrr is the only paper in the
whole of Southern Iowa that presents its
readers With the Presidents Message this
morning hours after its delivery to
Congress. We received it at the same time
with the Chicago and ST. Louis morning
journals. EE s#F8
The Burlington and Des Moines papers, we
arc informed by the telegraph operator, de-
clined TO pay the prices demanded for
ns receipt by telegraph-6fty dollars
as did also our eaterprisns q, contemporary,
although, had he joined with US, the expense
would have been lessened one half whereas
the entire expense of telegraphing the
message from st. Louis has devolved upon
US. This, however, we care nothing about,
as we are determined TO furnish the news to
the patrons OF the GATE, cost what it may,
and not wait, as does our 'istern Wheel Co
tsmporasy, to obtain it from the columus OF
some more enterprising journal.

LESSONS IN GEoGRAPHY.-There is
a small river, about an inch long on
the map Of New Brunswick, which
bears the terrific name of Kouchiboat-
guacsis II has no falls, or the name
would be broken into pieces. Every
time the ice breaks they have to
fasten the name down with long
pole. 1t is safe in time of a food:
the river is not big enough to float it.
Another poor little river, which looks
like the leg of tumble bug, is called
Caduamgauichoue, or Cadamkiswa
river" Il can't run at all.
