country so saved should live forever; q union
Cemented by blood 40 sacred and SO profusely
poured out should never be sundered. Let liberty
and equal rights be loved and cherished here until
and prosperous as our own. In conclusion. he ad-
vised all TO emulate the noble deeds and characters
OF those whom they had assembled to honor
to-day, 80 that our glorious country should
call in vain In time OF trying necessity for
exhibition OF that noble and selfsacridoing
patriotism for which these illustriOus dead were 80

The band then played the "AmerIcan Hymn"
after which the procession formed, headed by the
orphan children and the Committee on Decorations,

While the ceremony OF decorating the graves was

The graves OF four other cemeteries In the VI

THE DAY ON STATEN ISLAND.

The procession and ceremonies in honor OF the
day were not so imposing yesterday as those OF last
year. which was owing entirely to the severe rain
storm which prevailed during the day and the filthy
condition OF the streets, some portions OF which
were fully four inches deep with mud and water
The ladies and gentlemen who joined in the pro-
cesson rode in carriages and in passing through
the different towns the members Of the Grand Army
OF the Republic and other citizens footed it. The
procession visited the two cemeteries on the island
where, Notwithstanding the drenchng ran the
graves OF the fallen heroes were sprinkled with
flowers of every description from the hands Of over
one hundred ladies, who had nothing to shelter
them but their umbrella. In the evening services

The heavens were moved to too much sympathy
yesterday with those who went to weep over and
strew with immorteles the graves of our departed
heroes. When the sun rose In the morning, bright
and beaming over the quick and the dead 1t gave
assurance Of q balmy, brilliant day; but at nine
O'Clock canopy OF cloud descended over the earth,
hiding the uminary from view darkenng the streets
and lmpartlng an aspect of gloom to every scene.
Thon came slight pattering Of RAIN. and
finally shower, merging In deluge, that lasted
until late the afternoon. Those who anticipated
the pleasure of assisting in decorating the resting
places OF the dead Of the rebellion and in musing
among the tombs Of the heroic martyrs OF the Union
were greatly disappointed. And not these only, but
the citizens generally who Intended witnessing the
procession as 1t moved to the cemetery at Cypress
Hills, and by their presence expressing their ap.
prOval OF the most beautiful and touching festival
OF the year, were chagrined 1t was just such
another day that on which the body OF brave old
Farragut was borne in honor through our streets.
Yet, Notwithstanding the incemency Of the
weather, the programme for the day was
fully carried out, and hundreds OF people,
relatives aud friends OF soldiers, orphans
and others repaired TO the cemeteries and deposited
their floral offerings the green graves OF the de-
parted brave. AS demonstration of affection and
n the sun had poured down It's warmest rays The
festival has now become national; 1t is confined to
no section and is OF no party So whether it rains
shines, on each recurring 3oth OF May patriotic and
towing hands, North and South will strew the graves
OF those who fell in fratricdal war with garands
and flowers, and fondly recall the memory OF the
dead. Below will be found reports of the ceremo-
MES and meetings in New York, Brooklyn, New
Jersey and throughout the country.

ALBANY, N. Y, May 80, 1872
The fifth annual decoration of soldiers graves
took place at Rural Cemetery to-day. The weather
was very promising the fore part OF the day, but
just as the ceremonies commenced a light rain
storm set In, which continued throughout the SER
Vices. Nevertheless, a large number Of citizens
were present and participated In the ceremonies,
which consisted OF singing dirges and hymns, uIr-
yelling and dedlcatng the soldiers monument,
with an address by John Palmer, Past Post Com
mander OF the Grand Army OF the Republic; also
an address by s. p. COrss, Post Commander or tho
Grand Army; strewing flowers on the graves Of
soldiers, and an Grafton by Colonel Hale Kingsley.
The hymns sung were written especially for the

THE DAY IN WESTMINSTER.

While the copious rain, which descended during
the forenoon OF yesterday, interfered materially
with the arrangements for carrying out the "deco-

not, however, wholly prevent the touching obser

the memories of those who died that the Union Of

change It's character somewhat. Instead of the
