We find men in every wslk of iift
nistaking passai,a..a or prominence
for dt,assilv or eminence. No emin-

passion for prominence which causes
us to overlook the very steps by which
eminence is gained. The passion for
prominence kaiyes Us open to the

On Thursday of last week "Squat-
ter Sovereign" by the same of Weeden
kindled a fire to burn some brush on
land owned by Erastus Allard and
Seneca Winslow, preparatory to plant
ing patch Of potatoes for himself
The fire became unmanageable and
burnt up 100 cords Of wood and 200
logs, all ready for the market. The
fire spread to lands owned by other
parties, and it was only by great
effort that it was subdued before doing
an immense amount of damage
Messrs Allard and Winslow's loss is
estimated at $500. Weeden is only
worth wife and seven Or eight child
rem, and of course he is not 'sponsible.

Last Tuesday was the day set apart for
the beautiful observance of decorating the
graves Of the soldiers, and was generally
observed throughout the country.
Notwithstanding the threatening skies,
a large concourSe of people assembled in
this village to witness the ceremonies,
As the hour approached for the departure
of the procession for the cemetery, ter
rifle thunder shower broke over the town
and it rained heavily for short time.
After the shower, the procession was
formed in the following order: Wood
stock Cornet Band, Post, Sheridan, No.
%, G. A. R., all Soldiers not members
Of the Post, Woodstock Lodge, No. 81,
f. & A. NJ, the Division of the S. of T.
school children and citizens generally.
The procession marched to the cemetery
on River street, where, after a prayer
by the Rev. Elmer Hewitt, the COM
mander of the Post introduced the Ora
tor, Col. Stephen NJ. Pingrec of Hart
ford. The Colonel commenced his adj
dress, when the rain again interrupted
the proceedings. The procession re-
formed and marched to the town hall,
just reaching its shelter when another
heavy shower deluged the glad earth.
Here the Colonel delivered his address,
which was well received and appropriate
to the occasion. The address finished,
Mr. c. r. Ballard rccited an original Po-
EN- in remembrance of
"The brave who sank to rest,
With all their country's wishes best"
The procession again marched to the
cemetery, and the usual ceremony Of
decorating the graves followed-the Band
playing dirges. 1t was an impressive
scene-the living thus honoring the last
resting places of their dead comrades,
who went down amid the fierce rattle OF
muSketry, or died no less honored but
more painful and lingering death in hos
pitfalls. We trust the day will always be
observed thus, and as the sad memories
of the strife wear away with the lapse OF
time, let us Snatch from the greedy hand
of forgetfulness" the fame of those who
gave up their lives in the great struggle,
After the ceremonies were completed
in the village cemetery, the Post, accom-
panied by the Band, proceeded to the
cemetery at West Woodstock--whic by
the way is one Of the most beautiful of To-
cations for burial ground-and decorat-
ed the graves Of the soldiers who sleep
there.
