Hensrs To The Fallen Brave.

DECORATING THE GRAVES OF OUR DEAD SOLDIERS
AND SAILORS
worthy tribute Of respect is being made to
the gallant dead of our Army and Navy,
to-day, who gave up their lives to crush gigantic
rebellion which endangered the Union. Now, in
time of peace, it is but right that these fallen
heroes should be thus respected. a.-t
At the City Hall, preparations have been ma
king all day for this work. Among the flowers,
We notice beautiful cross, nearly three feet
high, handed in, to be placed on the grave of
Major James p. Bailey, a handsome wreath, for
the grave of Lieut. Webb and an elegant wreath
and boquet FOR the resting place of General
Smyth.
The procession leaves the city hall this after
noon at O'clock to decorate the graves of their
deceased companions in the different cemeter-
les, which will be performed in quiet and un-
ostentatious manner.
Small committees will first be sent to the Az
bury and Old swedes Church burying grounds
to strew the graves at those places, after which
the whole body will proceed to tho Wilmington
and Brandywine Cemetery.

Tho Rehoboth Railroad.

aLIM PRosPEor. OF ITS CONSTRUCTION, THIg SUM
MER.
Something seems 10 be out Of point with the
proposed new railroad from Lewes, (the tormi-
nus OF the Junction d Breakwater r. R., to Re-
hoboth Beach. By the announced terms of the
contract made by the Directors, it was to be com
pleted by the 9th of July. This is now regarded
as impossible, as nothing has been accomplished
but the running OF the preliminary surveys.
These were completed several weeks ago, and no
further work has yet been done.
The road will be some six miles in length.
There is very little grading. and with the excep-
tion Of some Inexpensive bridging, the labor Of
construction will not be great, but it is now evil
IDENTIFY impractcable to have it ready for the con-
veyance OF visitors to and from the Beach at the
opening OF the present season. Hacks will be
employed therefore, from Lewes. It is also
said that the Cape May steamers will touch at
datiOn.

THE HAhk CORNER TOURNAMENT. ~ &.
10 ate Editor of the Commercial:
There seems to be an understanding that the
young gentlemen who organized the Tourns-
ment at st. Georges, last Fall, are engaged In
that announced to take place at ,Hars's Corner
next Monday. In order that the public may be
better able to judge of its character, send you
the following resolution, passed by an unani-
nous vote at the last meeting of the members
of the st. Georges Association.
Whereas, member Of this Association has
advertised for Tournament to be held at Hare's
Corner, on June and inst, and is also engaged
IN arranging like exhibitions at other places for
his own pecnniary benefit, and =,
Whereds, This Society looks with reproacl on
this species of speculative, enterprise, and will
have no connection Iwh atever with the affair.

Is engaged in or connected with the above nam
ed so-called tournament be stricken from our

Inunity generally in this section. nj.

b A Wall FROM TEE STRAWBERRY FmLDs.-The
Salisbury Bachelor says Our strawberry grow
ers are putting on long faces and muttering a
dolorous wall over the gloomy prospect for a
good crop. The continued cloudy weather
OF last.and previous weeks has materially retard-
ed the growth Of the fruit, and although the
vines very full of berries, 1t is believed that
but few Of them will attain any size. In some
places the plants have been attacked with rust
or blight. as the growers term it, and they seem
to be dying. This is more especially the case
where the fertilizer was stable mannre.
