Decoration Day az Rall,s Bluff

While the graves at Arlington were being
decked by loving hands, and orators with elo-
quent words were recalling the brave acts and
generous sacrifices of the boys in blue who fell
in defence Of Union and Liberty; the graves of
those who fell in the terrible disaster at Balls
Bluff were not forgotten. Nor have they been
neglected since the war. Every Spring came
to their secluded resting place, those who had
lost friends, perhaps sons or husbands i'm the
same cause they had fought for, or those who
through the eng sad war had lived in its very
vortex and hoped and prayed for the Unions
victory. The ceremony has not been neglected
since Its institution, and has been conducted
with loving earnestness and quiet simplicity
that gives it added significance, when the
remoteness of the place from the nearest town.
and Its almost utter inaccessibility are taken
into consideration.
On the present occasion a numerous party
had gathered from Waterford, Leesburg, Wash
lngton, and Falls Church, with their choicest
flowers to celebrate the occasion. The orator of
the day was Col s. r. Chamberlin, who has I
believe. not only led the movement from tn G
first, but been the most active assistant at each
succeeding anniversary. He gave a short ac-
count of the advance, the fight and the dsas-
trous retreat. He reviewed the cause they
suffered for, and its final triumph, closing with
the hope that the unity secured would now be
enjoyed in harmony 10y all. Appropriate
remarks were also made nv John Ii. Dutton aud
Edward Nichols. The flowers which were of
the choicest varieties, were then laid by tender
hands upon the graves. HoLLYwoop.

ably prolonged, often lasting over thirty seconds.

the heat, people are compelled to have their
windows open. If the whistle is blown before
crossing Boundary street ii can be heard along

sary? We think the people are entitled to some
consideration at the hands of this monopoly;
but instead they treat US with the utmost con-
tempt. They lay tracks where they pie ase with
out the authority of law; they comply with the
grades OF streets or not, as IL suits their con-
venience; and they disregard the law of our
Legislature regulating the speed OF steam cars
