ALL SAINTS DAY.

The beautiful custom of decorating
tombs was fully observed in the city yes
terday. All day long the cars running on
Canal street were crowded carrying pas
sengers to and from the Ridge cemeteries,
and the burial places nearer the populous
parts of the city were thronged with
human beings, drawn thither by curiosity
or with desires to make tender offerings
to the dead. Nature has not been kind
to the flowers for the past thee months; it
has withheld the rains from heaven and
allowed buds and leaves to wither over
the parched earth; but yet enough of life
was left in beautiful things to fill the
hands of those who remembered and
mourned for the dead yesterday. In the
French cemeteries below Canal street art
greatly ministered in the place of nature,
and but few tombs were left unadorned
where loving hands could come with Of
ferings. The best showing of natural
flowers was seen at Lafayette Cemetery
on Washington street, where roses in pro-
fusion relieved the hard lines of fine cut
marble, and where green grass bordered
the homes of the dead. The broad lots
of Cypress Grove Cemetery also bore tes-
timonials of remembrance. Tears nor
flowers can not bring back the loved ones,
those who have gone before and beyond
the living and loving; but such heart
offerings have their own softening influ-
ences, bringing relief to the givers, and
yesterday was day not without its com.
forts and consolations its usefulness and
good lessons.
