writing to the Richmond Dispatch,
concerning the decoration of Confede-
rate graves at Arlington, says:
The triumph of to-day, at Arlington,
though apparently insignificant, was q
triumph of grander magnitude to the
present and future of this country
than all the bloody battles combined,
in which the brave Of the ''blue" aud
the "grey," that lie here in one com

There seems to have been prophecy
in these lines:

also in those discussions, to please every body.
Some would save a few hundred, or a few
thousand dollars from the salaries of officials
and office expenses, others say,-and l believe
from your programme, you belong to their
number-that they would strike the Military
altogether, or at least reduce their number, and
have them stationed at one place. | myself
am also inclined to your side, and have no
doubt that much might be saved without detri-
ment to the respective institutions, and for
the general benefit, but,doeS it not with all this
hold good what your correspondent, "A Citi-
zen,' said the other day, that we have abun-
dance of plans, but the actions are wanting,
and that nothing will be done unless the Supe-
rior Authority takes the matter in hand and
say how things are to be2
While | am on this tack of reductions, l
think it right to observe, by the way, that too
many think too exclusively on retrenchmeuts
and very little on the question of improving
the material prospects Of the island, to Increase
its resources, to stimulate the population to
industrial pursuits, in short to bring about a
sounder and better state Of society. In this
respect our community has always, it appears
to me, been suffering from a cancerous sore.
We hear complaints enough against the real
or imaginary grievances from which we suffer,
hut few will "giye a hand" to remove the

SUDDEN DEATH OF An ESTEEMED CITI.

SUDDEN DEATH OF AN ESTEEMED CITI-
zEN.-On Tuesday morning Mr.. VIM. Cald-
well, an aged and respected farmer living
near Thinking Spring, came to the city with
his daughters to make some purchases. =
While at the drug store of Wayt & Bro,
he complained of illness, and took some
medicine which gave him temporary relief,
and he left for the store OF Mr.. w. I'll.
Summerson, his daughter going to the resi-
dence of Captain H. II. Peck to pay a visit.
While talking to Mr.. J. M. Lickliter, the
clerk. he complained Of feeling unwell,
saving he had felt pain in his stomach
but now, placing his hand on his breast,
''it is here" He threw his saddle bags
over his shoulder and started out OF the
door, but quickly turned and fell insensl-
Die on the floor. Dr.. Robert S. Hamilton
was Immediately sent for, but after his al
rival, could only discern slight fluttering
of-thesheart and in a moment more MI.
Caldwell was dead. The shocking intelli-
gence was conveyed to his daughter, and
in the evening accompanied by sympathi.
ling friends, the mournful procession start
ed for the pleasant home which the dea(
man had left in health in the morning Nh
| Caldwell was farmer in good circumstan
| ces. and universally esteemed for his ster-
ling qualities of his character. He wa!
about GA years of age, and prominent
member Of the Presbyterian church. HI
had Just returned from the funeral o
Major Hartman.

The SOLDIERS GRAVES. There are
graves Of eleven hundred known and three
hundred unknown Confederate soldiers at
the Soldiers Cemetery here. Colonel J.
FL. Skinner, the President of the Memorial
Association, has had the ground surveyed
by Mr.. William A. Pratt, and a plan made
by which each grave may be located and
the ground has been plowed up so as to put
a sod over the whole. The same archi-
tect drew a design for an iron enclosure
of chains supported by iron pillars, repre-
senting an inverted torch crowned with a
cross, and along the chains will hang metal
tags, showing the location of the different
ranks of graves. This will be erected az
soon as the ground can be covered with
sod, matter in which great difficulty has
been experienced. the distance from water
and the nature of the soil having defeated
four Oh five efforts in that direction, and
rendered several paintings Of grass-seed
unavailing. Through the efforts of Presi-
dent Skinner, the finances of the Associa-
ton are in excellent condition, there being
about $1,000 in the treasury The results
OF three OF four concerts are included in
this, and donation of 800 from w. w.
Corcoran, of Washington city.

A NEW WRINKLE FOR HoUsEKEEr-
ERs.-A correspondent Of the Richmond
"Whig, " writing from Henry county, Va,
says:
On the table of my friend, Mrs D. W.
Reamy, on yesterday, 1 was gratlfied to
see and partake of a most elegant ham.
which she told me she had cured with the
smoke of old leather, shoe soles and red
pepper, a process somewhat novel to me,
but perhaps known to some of your read
ers. I have eaten ham in every part of the
State and in every part of the Union, but
| do not believe that pure old Westphalia
could have surpassed that ham in succu-
lence and flavor.
