the home of the brave" As we near the nun
dredtb anniversary of our independence, let the
spirit of patriotism still the turbulent eiehehts'
upon whose angry crest We have so recently De oeen
tossed. as the voice Of the Savior OF men stilled
the tempest on Galilee.
Mr.. Wilcox was exceedingly judicious and
chaste. in the matter and language OF his ad-
dress. and although he could not conceal MS
love for his native sunny home-and VINO OF
us can counseed return to the old flag OF
the " stripes and the stars with all the love
and devotion of our boyhood days. Mr.. v
was listened to throughout with marked AT
trntion. At his close simple touching anu
eloquent prayer WAS offered by Rev Mr. Ken
nedy. and then the Masons. Odd Fellows ana
large humber of persons repaired to the
grave yard to decorate the graves Of their
brothers and friends,
The occasion was one Of the most interesting
occurrence marred the happiness of the day.
Every arrangement was complete, aud nothing
was left undone that could in any way add to the
interest of the occasion. Too much credit can
not be bestowed upon the persons having the mat
ter in cEal ge for the really excellent manner IN
which the arrangements were perfected
To every one, it was joyous occasion, but
more particularly so to US who were born at the
north, and whose childhood and young manhood
was spent there amid parents and friends, but
who had turned away from us their love and
friendship, because we had seen fit to defend the
flag of our adoption Time has changed and soft
ened their hearts, and now they extend to us the
hand of forgiveness and love. These united dec
orations have contributed largely to remove the
barrier that not only hes turned the sections Of
the country against each other, but has enkindled
hatred between those born of the same mother
God be blessed for decoration day let 1t be OBJ
served every returning spring.

graves. This singular incident is forever EN-
halmed in poesy, by a poet well known to us
all poet whose Tyre has often answered in
sweetest notes to his magic touch:
The broken column reared in air
To him who made our country great,
Can a. most east its shadow where
The victims Of "A grand despair
In long, long lines of death await
The lest loud trump. the judgmentsun
Which comes for all. and soon or late
Will come for those at Arlington.
In that vast sepuchre rcposc
The thousands reaped from every fray,
The men in blue who once uprose
In battle front to smitc their foes;
A spartan. .bana who more the gray,
The combat DER, the death hug done
In summers blaze or winters snow
They Keep the peace at Arlington.
And almOs, hid in myriad graves
OF these who gained the unequal fight,
Are nonnds that hide Confederate braves
Who reck not how the north wind raves
In dazzling day or dimmest nj ght
Ger those who lost and those who won,
Death holds no parley which was right
Jehovah judges Arlington.
The dead had rest the dove of peace
Brooded o'er both with equal wings,
To both had come that great surccase
The last tOmnipOtent release
From all the worlds delirious stings;
To 6ugle deat-and signal gun,
They slept like heroes of old Greece
Beneath the slebe at Arlington.
And in the springs benisnant reign.
The sweet May woke her harp Of Pines
Teaching her Choir thrilling strain
Of jubilee to land and main.
She danced in emerald oown the lines
Denying largess bright to meme
She saw no difference in the " signs"
or those who sleptat Arlington.
She gave her grasses and her showers
To all alike who dreamed in dust
Her song birds woye their dainty bowers
Amid the jas mine buds and flowers,
And piped with an impartial trust,
Waits of the air and liberal sun
Their sprightly gees were kind and just
To friend and foe, at Arlington.
