Kin lie fires TO warm it!
Let their comfort hide from view
Winters that deform IL.
Hearts as frozen as your own,
To that radiance gather;
You will soon forget to moan.

In the worlds n wilderness.
Go build houses in it!

On the wind to DIM
Raise hut, however slight,
Weeds and brambles smother;
And to roof and meal invite

Breathe the love that life endearS,
Clear from clouds to fan it.

Unto souls that SILVER;
Show them how dark Sorrows stream
Blends with Hopes bright river.

The line OF march was the same as des'
iguated in the public order; that is east
on Orleans street from Court House
Square to Madison street north on Madi.
son to Illinois, west on Illinois to Otter
south on Otter to Orleans, and east on Or.
leans to Court House Square.
The appearance Of the military detnch.
ment from the Island, with their trim attire
and FURNISHED arms, commanded general
sdmirationand was Il prominent feature in
the display The Davenport societies were
ont in unbroken ranks. The various bands
discoursed the best of music. AS the pro.
cession moved down Illinois street, the side
walks, windows roofs, and balconies were
thronged with spectators.
When the procession had fully deployed
on Illinois street, it extended from Madison
street, near the depot, to Otter street, and
formed pageant not often witnessed
in this section And this in addition to
the immense crowds not joining in the
march.
As we go press, the procession is closing
around the Court House Square, followed By
the vast populace, to inaugurate the dedica'
ton ceremonies. The remainder Of the city
seems almost deserted.
Sautes are being fired, and the bells rung
| from all the churches.
Circumstances prevent our dong justice
to the affair this afternoon, but suffice 1t to
say, that nothing grsnder has ever trans
pired in the history of Rock Island.

OBITUARY.

Clara T., daughter of the Rev. P. and Sa.
rah Heck, departed this life March the ODD,
1869 at West Liberty, Iowa, in the 18th year
of her age.
She leaves father, mother, sister and
brothers, with large circle Of relatives and
friends to mourn her loss; but our loss is
her eternal gain
None knew her, but to love and admire
her. Her frank and cheerful disposition
drew around he large circle Of friends.
Funeral services preached by the Rev. Van
diver, Of the II. b. church Of Muscatne, to
q large aud attentive congregation, from
md, Samuel / chapt, and II verse.
One sweet flower has dropped and faded,
One dear daughter voice has fled.
One fair brow the grave has 5hrouded,
One dear daughter now is dead.
She has gone to heaven before US,
But she turns and waves her hand
Pointing to the glories DER Us,
In that happy spirit land.
