The gathering up of the remains OF
the soldiers from every field seems to he
prosecuted by Col. Moore with tender
and merciful spirit becoming the work
upon his hands, No distinction is made
in the care bestowed upon the bodies
that are found. Those who fell on the
one side and on the other in the frafer-
nal strife are transferred with the same
tenderness and care to the common resi-
ing place, and it IS an impressive fact
that the men who are engaged in this
work are invariably kind IN their words
and feelings towards those who fail as
enemies. The name of every soldier Is
studiously SOUGHT. their GRAVES. wha,.

BEAUTIFUL fNTR ACrs.--SiXteen years
ago, Rev. John w. Mat1at, thea IL his
prime, delivered lecture which closed
with the following fine passage: "The
Phoenix, a tabled bird Of antiquity,
when it felt the advancing chills of age,
built its own funeral urn, and fired its
pyre by means which natures instinct
taught. All its plumage and its form
OF beauty became ashes but then
would rise the young-beautiful from
the urn of death and chamber of decay,
would the t1edgling come, with its eyes
turned towards the sun, and essaying
Its dark velvet wings, sprinkled with
gold and fringed with silver, on the
Dalmy air, rising little higher, until at
length, in the full confidence of flight, it
gives a cry of joy, and soon becomes a
entering speck on the bosom of the
ierlal ocean. Lovely voyager of earth,
bound on its heavenWard journey to the
sun! So rises the spirit bird from the
runs of the body, the funeral urn which
It's Maker built; the death fires. So
towers away to its home in the pure
clements of spirituality, intellect Phoe-
NIX, to dip its proud wings into the
fountain of eternal bliss. So shall dear,
precious humanity survive from its
ashes of the burning world. So beauti-
July shall the unchanged soul soar with
m the disc Of eternity's luminary, with
uhtazlled eye and tmscorchcd wings
ehe l'AwniN Of immortality to
It's Rainbow home, and Graded oti the
neaang bosom OF eternal love.

Within the earthly temple Of our
Godo the Holy Spirit had sealed her
soul for Heaven, and in that upper sane
tuary she now swells the songs of re-
deeming Love.
She is not dead, the child of affection,
But gone unto that school
Where she no longer needs our poor pro-
teetion
And Christ himself doth rule,
Day after day we think what she is doing,
In those bright worlds of air,
" ear after year her steps pursuing
Behold her grown more fair.
. Not a child shall we again behold her,
For when with rapture wild
In our embraces we again cnfold her,
She will not be Il child

quented the Cabaret de la Mere Rigault,
an establishment frequented by artists,
has fallen desperately in love with the
handsome and attractive young widow
who now keeps that establishment. A
short time ago she received a letterfrom
the sculptor in these terms:
" Divine Pebble-if you We're guided
by the mallet Of fidelity, should have

polish of speech, thought | should have
made of you one of the most beautiful
statues in the world. But, alas! you
are as insensible as stone; and yet you
have fired my soul, although you are as
cold as marble. Have pity on me. 1

love that if | had to sculpture dragon,

raise statues and pyramids to you. I
