Cover them over with beautiful flowers.
Deck them with garlands, these brothers Of ours,
Lying so silent by night and by day,
Sleeping the years of their manhood away.
Give them the need they have won in the past ;
Give them the honors their future forecast.
Give them the chaplcts they won in the strife; !;
Give them the laurcls they lost with their life
Cover them over, yes, cover them over,
Parent and husband, brother and lover;
Crown in our hearts those dead heroes Of ours,
Cover them over with beautiful flowers.
Cover the hearts that have beaten so high,
Beaten with hopes that were doomed but to die;
Hearts that have burned in the heat of the fray,
Hearts that have yearned for the homes far away
Once they were glowing with friendship and love,
Now their great souls have gone soaring above;
Braey their blood 10 the nation they gave,
Then in her bosom they found theni grave
Cover the thousands wlo sleep far away,
Sleep where their friends cannot find them today !;
They, who in mountain, and hillside and dell,
Rest where they wcariel. and lie where they fell.
Softly the grass blades cr,epround their repose
Sweetly above them the wild fowret blows;
Zcphyrs of freedom fly gently o'er-head,
Whispering prayers for the patriot dead.
When the long years have rolled slowly away.
L Ell to the dawn of carth's funeral day;
V hen, at the angels loud trumpet and tread, i,
Rise up the faces and forms of the dead;
When the last world its last Judgment awaits;
,, When the blue sky shall ding open its gates,
And our long columns march silently through,
Past the Great Captain for final review
BLESSINGS for G,rlan,ls shall cover them over,
Parent ard husba d brother and lover;
God will "cward those dead heroes of ours,
Cover them over with beautiful flowers.

The RetOrt Car.teOus.

A correspondent says: "For place
where the varied humors, characters
ties, and moods of human nature are
developed and exhibited commend me
to a crowded horse-car in large city.
All the petty, mean, and manly traits
are shown forth by men and women In
these conveyances to their fullest ex-
tent. A few evenings ago, while riding
to my home in one of these Sandwich
ing machines, a lady (?) entered, and
by dint of persistent crowding made
her way through the car to the front
end. Here a gentleman arose and
proffered her his seat. just as she
turned to take it, without 30 much as
thanking him, she concentrated all the
venom of hateful disposition in the
remark: If there were any gentlemen
in the car they would not allow the
lady to go the length of it before giving
her seat She had not time to get
seated before the insolent remark es-
capped her, when the gentleman who
had offered her his seat quickly slid
back into it again and quickly re-
marked 4 think the ladies' are all
seated The rebuke was SO deserved
and withal SO capitally administered,
that murmur Of applause escaped
from nearly every one In the car, and
the crestfallen woman soon rang the
bell and alighted."

Lord Byr0n's Fear of Getting
Fat.

Byron had not damaged his body by
strong drinks, but his terror of getting
fat was 50 great, that he reduced hi
diet to the absolute point of starvation
He was of that soft, sympathetic tenn
permanent which it is almost impossible
to keep within a moderate compass.
particularly as in his case his lameness
prevented his taking exercise. When
