We confess to a disaRrecable feeling in seeing
dogs eat little boys and girls And it is the

" Three hundred thousand men
Tho brave, the good, the true,
L. tangled wood, ia mountain glen,
On battlefield, in prison pen,
Lie dead for me and you,
Three hundred thousand OF the brave
Have made our ransomod soil their grave,
For me and you, Kind friends, for mo and YOU"
We will not allow death TO blot the names
of these heroes from the rolls, for from their
names We will draw inspiration to emulate
their might and glory, to uphold and dlssem-
mate the principles for which they fought
Comrades, to-day we meet 10 do honor TO these
our noble, heroic dead. With hearts full, with
tender memories OF our dead comrades, we
meet to strew their graves with flowers. IL is
fitting that We unite with Nature herself At
this season OF the year in decorating the sleep
ing places of our fallen braves, as We lay
thereon the most precious flowers and choicest
garlands Of spring,
Wnen spring, with busy hn .ers cold
returns 10 dock their hallowed mould,
nhe there shall dress a sSeeter sod
Than iancy's feet have ever trod.
By fairy bands their knell n rung,
BY forms unseen their dirgcs sung,
There honor comes, u pilgrim gray,
To bless the turf that wraps their clay,
Aud freedom shall while repair
To dwell weeping hermit there.h

HARPERS' WEEKLY AND THE ST CROLY
CANAL
Says Ha7pers' Weekly:

Whether by canals railroads, the deepening OF
the water the connection of the fields OF
Minnesota and Wisconsin, by easy aud transit
with the Atlantic ports for many years form the
leading question and fix the attention of the majority
o. the people The Congress viii be called upon
to discuss the question of the day. 1t is plain, that
IT, the US, that is worth ninety
cents bushel in Boston, is burned for fuel in Mime
sota the of food must be at once prevented by
the whole energy of the community.
Very good, Bro. Weekly, and now if you
will give your whole energy by pictures,
statistics and editorials, to the question of
uniting the upper Mississippi with Lake
Superior, by the short and practicable St.
Groix canal, you alone may be the means
of solving the whole problem. Send on
your artist and correspondent, and direct
the attention of the country at once to this
great work of connecting the water course
of the lakes with the river system Of Min
nesota.
Railroads will never help you in the
world Monopoly will consolidate them,
almost as fast as they are built, or where
one railway rebels, the others will combine,
and crush it out. But open q water route,
and the railways may whistle for freight.
Private capital can compete on the water,
with London Bank, or Cresus and Wander
! blt.
The Northwes, is in earnest in this mat
ter, Messrs. Harpers, and you can double
your grand subscription, by advocating a
measure that is to your interest otherwise,
and to the interest of the whole eastern
country as well as ours. Will you thus
follow up your excellent and widely quoted
editorial?

Hon. Waldo NJ. Potter said before the
Iowa Press Association at Cedar Rapids,
on the 18th inst, that " the editor who cares
not for the moral results Of his work, is an
Intellectual demon. He publishes the de-
tails Of crime though convinced that he is
stimulating many minds into channels OF
thought which may prove temptations. He
undermneS belief in moral accountability.
Day by day pours his communicating flood
over society, poisoning, misleading, betray-
ing, running; and still he can sit quietly at
his table, and cooIly look over the moral
death which his life has wrought. What Is
such a creature better than an escaped
convict from the decree which sent Lucifer
to the shades Of wo?"
