About the Harb0r.
One of the busiest places about town at the
present time, is the harbor, just below Main
Street bridge Mr.. G. H. PARKER is busy pre-
pairing for the prosecution Of his dredging CON
tract in the Harbor, as soon as the weather
will permit. He is oyerhaulng the old city
dredge, and almost making new machine Of
it. Iii expected that with the improve
ments and alterations he is making, it will do
much more work with the same power, than
it ever did before. Then he is building two
large mud scows, that use upa large quantity
oflumber Altogether he has quite ship
about the first Of April, but the work on the
dredge has been delayed by the continued ex-
IRENE cold weather, and he hardly expects

death of r. III. DE1ING. The lodge room was
appropriately draped; the exercises were az
fecting and impressive. The sentiments Of
all were embodied and ftly expressed in the
following poem read by Miss BAKER, on that
occasion:
THE EVERLASTING MEMORIAL.
There is a monument that time cannot defaco
That reaches nobly up from earth to Sky.
Moulded in perfect beauty, symmetry and grace,
The good build for themselves before they die.
It's formed of holy thoughts and deeds OF truth
and love
IT'S based within the hearts and souls ofmen--
It's crowned with sacred blessings from the
throng above,
That mingle with tie prayers Of earth again.
And he who builds noble monu ment like this,
More precious than the costliest one Of fame,
Then weary enters joyously his home Of bliss,
Needs not that human lips should praise his
name.
For deep in loving human hearts shall be en-
shrined,
Sweet memories ofhm while life shall be,
Aud when the griefs ANA prayers ofearth are let
behind,
Shall be remembered through eternity.
How shall we render worthy tribute to the dead
Whose lives were purost in the sight OF God?
Shall we by standing idly by their silent bed?
And shrink from walking in the path they trod
Shall we, by raising costly marble DER the spot,
There rest the burdens that their souls laid
down
We might do this and more five had loved them
not,
And lose Heavens blessing to escape earth's
rrown.
Can we by letting all our time and thoughts be
given,
To idle words to prove that they were clear?
To hollow praise from which their souls in heaven
Would turn away and blush to hear.
Or by craven image. or by sounding word,
Can we the human hearts affection prove
But only in pure lives like theirs can we record
The truest, highest loyalty of love.
BY taking up the music where their voices stopped
And end the song in triumph they begun.
by making all complete the work their tired hands
dropped
And breathing through it love to God and man.
What kinder, better tribute could we pay TO one.
it'll trust we all called by a name so dear
AS FATHER,than TO copy well The good deeds done
Byhim, The earnest work while with us here.
TO give to Others what to us he freely gave
The sympathy that caused the tear to start,
The kindly word the soul from grief to save
The rity Of large Low ng heart.
The burdened soul by sor VS. cloud oppressed
Has lichtened often at his hopeful voice;
And little children his gray hairs have blessed,
For gentle words thatmade his heart rejoice
BLESSED memorial within the souls
Of rich and lowly Of the young and old,
Twill live forever as time onward rolls
a sacred treasure angels shan unfold
To Father DEMING's memory let there be given
Pure thoughts and deeds that with own night
blend,
A guide 10 virtue, holiness and heaven.
A Liberal christian and faithful friend.
