BRAVE
Far over the land, over mountain and
BY river and streamlet, the brave lie
asleep,
No more to be reused by the bugle's shriu
rally
Away from the loved ones, who sorrow
fully weep;
Away from the churchyard where, peace
fully lying,
Beneath the long grass and the flowers
that bloom,
Are sleeping their fathers-while they who
died trying
Lie scattered affair till sounds trump of
doom.
Down by the shore where thunders Old
Ocean
In thick tangled dells, lie their bleaching
remains;
Oh! is there a heart but that feels deep
emotion
But would yield them of glory, ali that
glory contains?
Then build them up monuments, wreath
them bright flowers,
For noblv thex sissl ss-s. -s's''l-'7'-1 ss'S'
cell
Oh! you cannot repay them for the dark
ness of hours
In prisoner wash out the blood where
they fell.
Then speak to the hearts of those who are
weeping
For fathers who left them, for brother or
SON
Write on your banners, that proudly are
sweeping,
The names of those soldiers who victory
won.
Rear them proud temples mid LIES busy
thronging,
That men may be told OF the heroes who
bled-
To preserve the great UEFoE-the glOry's
belonging
Not alone to the living, but as wen to the
dead.

SUPPER FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE
ORPHAN ASYLUM Tho warm heart
ed and benevolent ladies Of our city,
who propose to give a supper or festi-
val for the benef Of the Orphan Asy-
lum, to be held on Tuesday night,
have been kindly rendered the use of
the large and commodious sale-room
on Main Street, belonging to and occu-
piedSby Messrss Rocker e. Blouut.
Those gentlemen have given the use
Of the room free, of charge, for which
they deserve special commentator
and praise. It is large and roomy, and
we consider that the ladies have been
quite fortunate in securing such de
sirable place.
The most extensive preparations
will be made for the accommodation
of all, and 1t will no doubt prove
brilliant affair and a grand success.
These ladies have labored steadfastly
and earnestly for this noble object, and
have already accomplished a great
work for the orphans Of our city, It
is now proposed to place the Asylum
in a condition to fully meet the re-
quirements Of all who are entitled to
aid, and for this the supper will be
given. 1t is no sectarian move, but
one that should, and we feel sure will,
meet the hearty approval and
liberal patronage of our open-hearted
citizens, We shall confidently expect
to see the house crowded on that oc-
casion.

THE LATE HORSE FAIR-THAT
FAST TnfE.-The New Albany edi-
tors are mighty funny fellows. Gay
jokers are they, and fond of sarcasm.
They have the funniestway of blowing
up men and things, and appear so
much in earnest, that one would think
they were talking seriously weren't not
for the Introduction of. statistics or
figures, which betrays the under cur
rent of humor that pervades their
panegyrics.
h Some time ago they had a horse
fair in the vicinity, which they blowed
for weeks previous, during its progress
and after its close. 4e
We watched the reports from day
to day with some interest, anxious to
record the fast time made On the
first day one horse made his mile in
2:364, but we waited and watched for
fast time, but waited and watched in
vain We mentioned the time, 2:363,
to some of our citizens who drive ia
vorite family horses. and i. elected a
broad smile. afI
We made inquiries among men
versed in such matters, and learned
that there were almost any number of
family carriage horses in this city
good for that time, or better.
Henry Morgan's Ellen Douglas has
made her mile in 2:35 on a bad track.
c. r. Dement'S mare, jennie, has
made her mile, when not in training,
in 2:40. VIM. Brown family carriage
mares are good for 2:45 together; one
of them in 2:35, single. R. K. Dunk
erson's Joe Adams, famous as the
most docile, safe and reliable family
horse in the State, and great fayorite
with the ladies ON that account, has
made his mile in 1881, and was never
trained for racing. Henry Morgan's
colt at four years old, made his mile
on a quarter track in 2:58, and if in
training now, would make it in 2:3O
Capt Dexter's John A. Logan, on
crooked track, made his mile, ON the
fiftR heat, in 2:304, which, on
straight track, was equal to 2:273.
After obtaining these facts, we saw
" where the joke came in, in the
grandiloquent reports of the New AL
bany papers. They are mighty funny
fellows
AN Anxious sNfeHTs AND Day
On Monday morning Mrs Blackburn,
a very worthy widow lady, who re-
sides three miles from the city, sent
her son. a lad Of fpEelzsa-sss.as zssssssss I
purchases The day passed away and
the night also, and the boy did not
return. Every parent can appreciate
the painful anxiety of that fond
mother, IS hour after hour passed and
her loved one did not return, Her
heart was tortured with the most
painful apprehensions, as visions of
her boy drowned, or perhaps muir
dered, rose before her mind. Yester-
day morning she came to the city, and
had a notice written for the JOURNAL,
setting forth the facts and describing
the lost one, But greatly to her re
lief before the notice was III type, the
boy was found, and joy again illumin-
ed the boating mothers heart. The
lad had gone aboard a steamer lying
at the landing and was carried off.
He was landed at Henderson,, and re-
turned on one of the packets yester-
day morning 1t is to be hoped this
little adventure will be lesson to
him, not to loiter when sent on an err

MECHANICS. We alluded. few
days since, in general terms, to the
mechanics of our city, both as to the
character of their work, and to the
promptness with which it was dis
patched. Our attention has been
called to another mechanic who came
to the city at an early day, and who
has been employed ON many of the
principal buildings in the city. The
gentleman referred to-who does not
wish his name to appear in print
erected the first iron front to a build
ing On Main Street. He laid the first
brick Of the splendid residence of Mr..
Robert Barnes; and assisted in the
construction of the large house of
Willard Carpenter, which is perhaps
one of the most substantial in the city,
having very thick walls, with all the
modern Improvements. He also erect
ed a large number of the business
houses in the city, as well as many of
the neatest and most substantial
dwelling heases4A He was4ohe OF the
difficult jobs, which gave entire salts
faction to the City Council
OF late years his skill and superb
ority as a mechanic has been exhibited
on many of our finest and best build
ings. His services in the construction
of city sewers have proved invalu-
able, more especially in the upper part
of the city. The gentleman referred
to, is now erecting the large business
house of S. Il. Gilbert & Co, on First
Street, which will prove a fine struc-
ture when completed He is assisted
by two excellent mechanics, who are
also superior workmen, and these en-
ergetic gentlemen will push the work
forward to completion at the EARLIEST
day possible. The manufacturing and
mechanical interests of our city, are
matters of great pride to all. Our
people are emphaticallya productive
people, workers, who seek to elevate
labor, and honorably maintain its dig
nifty In this respect, we feel that
ours is the equal, if not the superior,
