DECORATION DAY.-Following a
custom which has now become uni
versal in the Northern as also the
Southern states, of setting apart a
day for appropriate care and decora-
ton of the graves of the dead of the
late war and to perpetuate 10 memo
ry their heroism, Governor Taylor
has ISSUED proclamation recon-
mending that Saturday the Both day
of this month be observed in this
manner, and invites all the people
to participate in this beautiful Gus
tom. Some have feared that the
tendency of Decoration day would
be to preserve the memory of hos
tilites, which should be forgotten.
Bus this is not a necessity. The
Same custom Of annually decorating
the graves of the dead Of the war
prevails in the South, and who of Us
would deny them the privilege of
caring for the remains of their fal
len? Our dead soldiers are not hon
ored alone because they were brave
and died Our enemies were brave
and died. But it is the cause for
which they fell that consecrates their
memory. We cannot imagine any
Observance more appropriate and
beautiful than the annual decoration
of the of the graves of the dead. An
important festival or church day
with the Roman Catholics is ALL
souls Day. There the friends and
relatives of the dead visit their
graves, and the Church militant and
the Church triumphant mingle.-
Every people and every creed should
have an Al!-souls' Day. We pre-
presume that the Committee ap-
pointed on last Decoration day are
preparing for proper observance of
the occasion in Lancaster on May
Both. Whatever is proposed to be
done we will be pleased to state in
the next issue.

degree possessed the qualifications, which so ef-
fielently fitted him for the station he occupied
in life whose ambition seemed 10 be realized
in promoting the welfare of his fellow men,
and whose human efforts for the alienation of
the distressed and deeds Of benevolen ce and
charities are worthy our highest praise.
A public benefacior has fallen, large circle
of acquaintances mourn. The community
loses citizen of rigid int egrity, unsulhed
which he belonged has been robbed of most
brilliant ornament, the Fraternity OF Odd
fellowship of one of its brightest jewels.
Resolyed-That we will ever cherish his
memory, and that in hi. life we have an ex-
ample well worthy our emulation and highest
esteem.
Resoved-That the members of this lodge
wear the usual badge of mourning for 81

effect that the Spring wheat crop
promises well and is advancing rap
idly, Notwithstanding the unfavora-

is estimated at one-ffth greater than
last year. During the past seven or
eight days the soil and weather have
been favorable for corn planting, and
the farmers generally have improved
the opportunity for planting. Grass
is held in check for want Of rain, al

corn is mostly in ground drench-
