DECORATION OF CONFEDERATE GRAVES.
Solemnly, silently and quietly, without blast of
trumpet or tlaunt of flags, the Southern people
of Covington collected yesterday, to the number
of two hundred, at Linden Grove Cemetery,
and paid their annual tribute to their soldier
dead. Many of the graves were those belong,

hence were much scattered; yet each was beau

flowers. :.

of the stranger dead, was most conspicuous,ly

WONDERFUL MEMORIEs-Some examples
of the marvels of memory would seem entirely
incredible had they not been given to us upon
the highest authority. Cyrus knew the name
of each soldier in his army. 1t is also related
of Themistocles that he could call by name
every citizen of Athens, although the number
amounted to twenty thousand. Mithridates,
King of Pontus, knew all his eighty thousand
soldiers by their right names Scipio knew all
the inhabitants of Rome. Seneca complained
of old age because he could not, as formerly,
repeat two thousand names in the order in
which they were read to him and he stated
on one occasion when at his studies, two hun
dred unconnected verses having been recited
by the different pupils of his preceptor, he re-
peated them in reversed order, proceeding
from the last to the first.
Lord Granville could repeat from beginning
to end, the New Testament in the original
Greek. Cooke, tragedian, is said to have COM
mitted to memory all the contents of daily
newspaper. Racine could recite all the TRACE
dies of Euripedes.
1t is said that George III. never forgot face
he had once seen, nor name he had heard.
Mirandola would commit to memory the con-
tents of q book by reading it three times, and
could frequently repeat the words backward as
well as forward. Thomas Cranmer committed
to memory, in three months, an entire transla-
tion of the Bible. Euler, the mathematician,
could repeat the Eneid, and Leibnitz, when
an old man, could recite the whole of Virgil,
word for word.
1t is said that Bossuet could repeat, not only
the whole Bible, but all Homer, Virgil and
Horace, besides many other works,
Mozart had wonderful memory of musical
sounds. When only fourteen years of age, he
went to Rome to assist in the solemnities of
Holy Week. Immediately after his arrival,
he went to the Sistine Chapel to hear the ia
nous "Miserere" of Alleri. Being aware that
it was forbidden to take or give copy of this
renowned piece of music, Mozart placed him.
self in corner and gave the strictest attention
to the music, and on leaving the Church noted
down the entire piece. A few days afterwards
he heard it a second tme and, following the
music with his own copy in his hand, satisfied
himself of the fidelity of his memory. The
next day he sang the "Miserere" at a concert,
accompanying himself on the harpsichord, and
the performance produced such a sensation in
Rome that Pope Clement XIV. requested that
this musical progidy should be presented to
him at once.-Otiuer Optics Magazine.

WAS SHE WORTH IT?

CHAPTER IL-NO. 1 MoNTGoLFIER TERRACE IN l847.
(Continued)
Tom Bethany found his way to his uncIe's house as soon
as he decently could, on the morning after the ball. He wan
ted to assure himself that the episode of the night before wasn't
only a delightful dream. When Lucy Callum appeared in a
pink morning wrapper, looking pale and sorrowfuI, his heart
gave a mighty throb as he thought She has changed her mind'
Bot Lucy set his fears at rest, nesting in his arms for a moment,
and allowing him to take two or three little kisses. But she
looked up into his face with such wistful eyes: % Tom, poor
papa is so ill!
why, what's the matter? Je looked so we'll last night
Yes but he was taken i'll this morning: the doctor says
it's paralysis he mas been insensible for a long time, and DR..
James says-O poor papa! And here Miss Lucy broke down,
aud sobbed her heart out against TOMS waistcoat.
Tom didn't know exactly how to comfort her. He was
fond of his uncle, and shocked at the idea of his death but he
couldn't hit on anything likely to console his sweetheart.
there's a brighter world And then it struck him that a world
without short whist, Unlimited loo, old port, and brandy and
water, no viewer bright it might be, wouldn't suit the old gen
tleman and so he took to kissing the poor damp salt cheeks
that were turned up to him for sympathy; and ~by-and-by the
great soft-hearted boy began to blubber to and that seemed to

do her good, fog She stopped crying, and began to comfort Tom,
strokiug his hair off his forehead, and calling him all sorts of pet
names and then, when Tom had mopprd himself up, and was
thinking what IL great BOBBY he was, She ran away TO look af-
ter her papa.
After while she came back. He's sensible now, and ask
ing for YOU Tom crep upstairs, and stood by his uucles bed
side. The old man had The mark of death on him. Tom he
whispered in hoarse voice that seemed to come from a long
way ot-Tom, look after Lucy, and stick to the business, for
better or worse
by Gods assistance, | will
You see Toms feelings had been wrought up a good deal
especially seeing that he was thinking more of Lucy than the
business, which the old man had coupled with her.
The dying man took Toms hand and pressed it: it wasn't
the sort of hand-cIasp that q father would give who had just be-
slowed a beautiful daughter and a large fortune on a sutton, but
an appealing, chnging, deprecating squeeze at least so Tomfe felt
it; and perhaps he was right.
Well, John CaIIum died and was buried and after the fu-
neral came the reading of the will. I~thappened also that the
day of the funeral was Tom BeIlamy's birthday. The will was
dated a week before the old mans death. 1t was short and to
the purpose. He b%equeathed everything of which he died pos
sessed, after paying his just debts and funeral expenses, to his
daughter and appointed Thomas Benamy sole trustee and exc
cutOr. 1t was his wish, he had added to his will, that his
daughter should marry his ward and kinsman, if, as he believed,

BLESSED BE NoTHING.-During
the last twenty years William B.
Astor has SO managed Il fortune
of twenty millions as TO roll il
into sixty millions. Suppose he
has, what then! What has he
made by the operation, except in
creased worriment to keep the run
of his increased wealth? Astor,
with sixty millions, eats no more
oysters, quail, woOdcock, and
boned turkey than he did when
he was worth ten millions. He
dresses no better, and has u thou
sand times less fun. We beat him
on sleep, and have no lawsuits with
tenants and trespassers. Robbers
lay wait for Aston every time he
goes out of doors after dark
They don't think Of US. Aston
with sixty millions Of dollars, has
sixty millions of trouble. To
keep the run of his rents, bonds
and estates, keeps aston in work
about fourteen hours a day, and
yet, Astor only gets three square
meals q day, which is just what we
obtain without any millions, any
tenants, any real estate, and only
work eight or ten hours per day.
With contentment and a mod
crate income, a man may be as
happy as a prince. Without con-
tentment you will be miserable,
even ifyour wealth equals the rent
rolls of CrGsus.

ALAsl how the mighty have
fallen
Alas! how the little have reason !!
By the grace Of Gov. Alcorn, who
is d~isgraced by some of the appoint
ments he has ioisted into high
places, the Chancery affairs Of this
county have been entrusted to the
whims of the Hon. % God save
the mark E, Hill, late of New
York, and later still, Caypet-Jdgger
to Warren county. Thus he stands
thus his biography is written. These
remarks with reference to this sa-
pient Judge 81 are suggested
by the first decision he has
rendered as Chancellor sitting
in equity, the substance of
which simply amounts to the sage
conclusion that the HERALD is
diSloH, and consequently an inn
proper organ to publish the legal
notices which may emenate from
his Conrt. This judicial luminary(O

ermine of vindictiveness and preju-
dice, and not of justice, has convict.

we used the following truthful Ian
guagO in an article which appeared
in this paper on the oath ult:
God pity the "bar' of Mississippi
If her present judges were selected
from any such cause, for possibly a
greater number of mental imbeciles
totally ignorant of law, blinded
by partisan prejudice TO such an ].
tent as to be unable to detect and
defend justice under any light

We Lad by far rather trust to the
honesty aud the sense of o jury
picked from the most debased and
brutal negro convicts in our peni-
Tertiary gang than one Of these
Judges learned In the law" They
are profoundly learned in the law
of Ku Klux outrage and want of
"loilty," but in the law of justice,
honesty and right they are as ignO-
rant as death.
For these words the HERALD is
prescribed, for speaking the truth
the Judicial edicts of E. Hill are
hurled at Its head, but thank God
they fall harmless to the ground,
and we spurn the puny Chancellor
who assumes dictatOrial perOga-
tives not warranted by law and are
nowhere to be found in equity.
But of such is the Kingdom of
RadiCalism. Such is the result Of
the very evil we we're lamenting,
when we wrote the article in ques.
ton. The end Of such tyranniCal
usurpatiOns will surely come bye
and bye, and then such legal lights
as Z. Hill, will be removed from
our affairs of justice, and such bi.
