Tncn1,.siHth Day OF April.

This day has been set apart Cor the deco
ration Of the graves Of our Confederate
dead. What a throng Of sad memories
does this day call up before the mind
What funeral pageant will this day wave
lis hearse-plunes before the mental eye OF
the South This day hundred thousand
Southern mothers aud wives and daugl-
tiers will strew flowers on the graves Of our
gallant dead. The Potomac will hear the
vail Of the Southern niisserere over the
graves OF those fought under Jackson and
Lee. The Tennessee and mberland will
mingle their voices in the sad dirge over
the slain Of Shiloh, Chickamzuga and
Nashville The fair msidens and ma
irons Of Virginia will lay a wreath of
daises on the grave of the noble Southern
youth whose blood has been poured ont as
4 rich libation to her cause. Tennessee
will weave chaplet Of imnlogtelies 20 lay
on the unmarked graves Of those who fought
the forlern hope under Hood. Georgia,
with heart as sad as the moaning Of the
pines above her dead, will place a coronel
Of ssphodel and smaranth on the grave of
the noble Tennessean "who headed the
gray lines iron charge and whose life
went ont in the red blaze Of battle
Louisiana and Mississippi, clad in robesof
sorrow, twine the magnolia and orange
blossoms on the graves Of those who fell at
Port Hudson and Vicksburg. Maryland,
My Maryland, will plant the laurel over
those who sleep at Sharpsburg. Texas, de-
liant in her sorrow, builds monument of
prairiehowers abovethe graves Of her dead.
But oh, who will strew a single flower over
those who fell at Gettysburg?
One Of the most brilliant orators of the
French revolution, when dying said to those
around him,
Crown me with flowers"
A still small voice from hundred thou
sand Southern graves, il whispering this
day to the women of the South, "Crown
me with flowers" The Fat of our con-
querors has forbidden us to raise the memo
rial column above their graves. - ..a
We may not raise the marble shaA
Above the hearts that now are dust,
But Nature, like mother fond
NIli mere forget the sacred trust"
Young April on their lonely mound
Shall shake the yiolets from her hair.
And glorious jane with ferVid kiss.
Shall bid the roses blossom there"
Russia with noble generosity per
mitted the Poles to build n monument TO
theirdeadat Cracow, and Napoleon showed
himself grander, when decorating the
graves ofthe English dead at Foulon, than
in the blaze and glory Of Solierino and
Magenta.
The South has no triumphsl arches, 90
Miriam9 with dance and timbral singing
songs Of deliverance. Her women are all
Rachels, weeping over theirlost loved ones.
The fGeman need not frOWn
They are poweress now,
We gather them here and we lay them down
Aud tears aud flowers are all the crown
We bring 10 wreath each brow"

Special Notes,

ON THE OPENING OF A BILLIARD
Room it is generally the custom, rs every
one knows, to have several champions present TO
entertain the public FOR FEW HOURS; but on
account of so much suffering among our people
we thought proper TO give the orphans of this
city and poor of Chattanooga that benefit, which
we have done for the last two weeks And
again. as it is sometimes the custom of giving
premiums. such as watches, etc. and having
proof Of the last two weeks business that the
citizens of Nashville appreciate our efforts to
help the needy, we have therefore concluded to
Nashville from the lst day of April 1867, up to
October LIST, 1867, (siX months,) which amount
will be RENTED weekly to the Mayor Of Nash
vile. We hope that the amateur billiard play
ers and the public in general will appreciate the
cause and sustain it, "a

THRNTGti To ST. riUL.

The first passenger tram from st. Paul
arrived in Milwaukee on Tuesday. The
distance is 42O miles, and the trip was
made in % hours. When it is remem-
bered that only few years ago it took at
least ten days to travel the same distance.
We can understand how distance and
time are annihilated by the grand Iron
Way upon whose track the fiery coursers
are not delayed by the intensest heats of
summer, or the severest cold Of winter.
1t is good for Minnesota and Wiscon-
sin to be thus daily connected. This
road trayerses the most fertile region OF
Minnesota, and its business must hourly
increase, for ike the New York Central,
it has the advantage of being the first
great thoroughfare through growing
State 1t will immcasurabiy increase the
wealth of Minnesota, and year after year
pour volume of business into our State.

Alderman MeGhi, of England, carried
manure in liq,dd form all over his farm
in pipes; and it cost him only at the IA. q
of penny load. He was sorry to see
SO many boys run off to the cities.,f from
the farm; they should be made to see
thorough farming demands as much skill
and thinking as professional or other pur-
suits.
Duchess County farms are rated from
500 to $50 per acre. He did not say
that they were not worth this; but he did
say that. as they are now farmed they are
not. Water should be used to overflow
land. Almost every farm has a brook
near, that can be directed to irrigating
purposes. Underdraining was recom-
mended.
A final objection which Mr.. Greeley
urged to the farming now in vogue was
that it does not employ enough thinking,
Our farmers are not so intellectual as they
should be. They do not surround them
selves, as mass, with enough books and
periodicals. IF farmers would make their
firesides more intellectual, and discuss
practical matters of farming various
successes and failures in the neighborhooo
and do all they can otherwise to create
refined atmosphere about the home, the
boys would not SO often run away to the
towns. They should remember that we
1--we IN more stirring aye than oar ances-
tors did. Boys do not leave farming SO
much because they are lazy as because
they are quick witted and want some
thing to think about. We ought to reform
thiS
