TIE LAKEWOOD ASSOCIATION.

| The members of this Association and
their friends met at St. Johns Clurch al
an early hour on yesterday morning. lhcE
wore proyidcd with lunches, wrcathS, ana
parlandS of flowers: and even the niue
children were prepared to.givc their mccd
nf floral adorumcnt to the memory of those
whom they had loved. The larger majority
of the pcrsonS present were ladies, and they
showed bv their conduct how much may be
realized from the acutcncSS, tenderness,
and sanctitv of feeling which il is to be
bopcd will ever continue TO characterize the
women of Virginia.
AT about 10 o'clock, all the ladies and
their friends assembled in the church, and
the meeting was called to order. The One
Hundrcdth Psalm was then sung, and the
Rev. Mr.. Price offered an eloquent and
touching prayer. In brief but touching
language he expressed the submission OF
our people before the throne OF the AL
mighty, and, acknowledging the truth OF
His word and glory of His promises, taught
us that we ought, under all circumstances,
to thank Him for His infinite mercy and
love in giving His only Son to be
our Rcdccmcr and Saviour. He said
that we must acknowledge the presence
of Gods hand, and humbly confess the
Justice of His diSpcnSationS. We must
bless and thank Him for all things, ask
lug that all our trials may be Sanctliicd
to his honor and our salvation: that He
might make us more truly religious III
feeling: that every thought, memory, and
association might tend the more to the
honor OF His holy name. lie prayed that
we might ever remember the virtues of our
departed saints: that those who mourn for
the dead may care for the living may
guard from sorrow the forlorn and desc
late: may wipe away the tear of the widow
and the orphan, and in all things conSccrate
ourselves To our Lord and Saviour Jesus
Christ. For the sake of our country, We
ought to devote ourselves to the Cultiva-
ton of spirit of righteousness and truth,
which alone can truly cXalt a nation and
give us a safe dclivcrancc from all our trials
and affection. He prayed that the Almighty
might preside over all our deliberations
and actions, so that every deed of ours
might contribute 10 His glory and the
welfare of our people E; and that when we
who are now left on earth have passed
away, those who remain surrounded by the
temptations of the world may be able to
say of us that we lived in the spirit OF that
gospel and that religion which will justify
them in saving

No nobler cause than this Of thine,
May woman, heart engage,
She needs no prouder place TO win
On Fame immortal page.
So seek them III their graves unknown,
And by the genial powers,
Bid on each spot. III beauty spring,
slsterhood oil nowcrs.
No marble slab or craven stone
Their mouruful deeds to tell,
No monument 10 mark the spot
Where they with glory fell
Their names shall yet a herald lind
In every tongue of fame,
When valley, stream, and minstrel voice,
Shall ring with their acclaim.
Plant flowers above their lonely graves,
The ivy let entwlne
It's tendrils there, aud there De set
The myrtle and the vine.
Memorials of thy love shall mark
Each cOnsecrated place,
And angels, wandering down from heaven,
Will love the spot TO praise.
All DER the land, like Autumn's leaves,
Borne on the wiutry blast
They lie with no mementoes raised
To link them with the past.
Then bid the sculptured stone renew
The story of their fame,
Some monument 10 after-time,
Their gallant deeds proclaim
Bring flowers to deck each patriot grave,
And bless the vernAl sod,
Where sleep those fallen ones whose deeds
Are written with their God
Place the white stone above each head,
The sacred spot enclose,
That no wandering step may break
The night of their repOse
