The FLORAL OFFERING AT ELMwooD
Another year has we'll nigh rolled
around since the gallant few who bore to
the last the standard of the Lost Cause
surrendered to their enemies every
thing but honor-another year of OPP
preston, heart-ache and sorrow through
out the breadth of our sunny land
and again draws near the anniversary,
with thoughtful appropriateness APP
pointed from among the days of the
fearful month of spring, for decking with
floral offerings the graves of the patriot
beloved who sunk to rest while yet the star
of their country shone hopefully above
them, dying in the golden light of its
glory that it might never set. Out of the
years of their slumber in death, it is but
BETTING that one day, at least, of
each year should be set apart for
the performance of this sad Office
and that as, in the evolutions of the sea-
sons, the flowers are rewakened from the
sod meath which their peaceful ashes
repose, the angel hand of woman
should tenderly pluck the offering of
spring and strew their petals on the
mounds that mark their resting places of
whom it may well be said, in the soft
language of one of our own Southland
poets:

R1GuTING A WRoNG.--Ip 1861 Hon. James
Guthrie as President of the Louisville and Nash
Vile Railroad Company, brought a suit in the
courts of Kentucky against General s. b. Buck
ner, of the Confederate army, for having destroy
ed the bridge of that railroad over Green River.
Gen. Buckner of course did not appear to defend
the suit, and it vent against him. The Judge
ment for some SEQ, 600, under which Gen. Buck
ners fine house in Louisville, as also his paternal
mansion, library, and large farm in Hart coun-
ty, were sold, and bought in by the Company;
4 few months ago he sued for the recovery of
this property, on the ground, first, that he had
no part in the destruction of the bridge; and
second if he had destroyed it, the act would have
been justifable under the laws of war. With
out waiting for final decision, the Company
have concluded that their case was not good
one, and have made an amic.ble settlement with
Gen. Buckner, to whom the real estate has been
restored For the rents apd personal property he
is to be paid in money

Condition Of English Laborers.

The New York World has a correspondent at
New Castle-upon-Tyne, in England, who gives
an interesting account of life and labor among
the lowest of the lower classes, of Great Britain,
which is onlv another and fresh illustration of
the oft,repeated statement that one half the
world does not know how the other half lives.
The condition Of the farm laborers in England
is such as to make that OF own Southern
negroes, in the days of slavery, seem fairly en-
giabe in comparison. The English laborer
stands with his family in the market place or
street, to be examined, inspected and handled
by his hirer, and if his points" satisfactory,
if he shows ability for the endurance Of deal
of hard labor, he may sell himself for given
number of bushels Of wheat, barley, oats and
peas or $50 in money for the whole year, and a
rent free, one-roomed, earthen foored shanty
for his family The bushels of peas, barley and
so Oh, are barely sufficient to support life; he
must furnish "a woman assistant known a "bOnd-
.ager" to help Lirl ID the field or barn, and she
receives for her services twenty cents day,
working therefor from 6 A. NJ. to p. NJ, while
the less happy man is expected to labor from
A. M. to 8 Z. NJ. In winter they work while
it is light; and in haryest-time the bondager 5
wages are augmented to thirty-seven cents day.
She, as well as the man, must 90 into the fields
in all weathers, and when they return to their
miserable howell they sup oat meal porridge,
barley and pea meal cake, with sometimes show
of potatoes, and "a faint sensation of bacon" 1t
as possible that wider diffusion of education,
will do something to amelorate, if not greatly
improve the condition of this class of aborers in
England; but it is certain that thousands of white
men and women thus live, or try to live in Great
Britain to-day, with no movement fog their relief
and apparently no public concern for their con-
Aition.

The FREEDMEN it seems, from what we

truth of the ancient proverb 'that rolling stone

little changing about-a decided Improvement

majority strengthens the hope, that more sue
