HrIt is probably generally remembered that
some years ago-ls73+Congress passed alaw pro-
viding for the erection of durable headstones
over the graves OF soldiers of the regular and
volunteer forces of the United States whose re-
mains are inferred in the National Military Gem
eteries This law has been carried out, and the
graves of the Nations dead in these cemeteries
are now permanently marked. At the instance
of the War Department, Congress has recently
authorized the erection Of similar headstOnes
over the graves of the Union soldiers who are
buried in private or village cemeteries. This
will be done as soon as necessary arrsng emeuts
can be made In the meantime the Quartermas-
ter General, at Washington. will at once proceed
to collect the necessary information - to where
these headstones are required
All persons having any knowledge Of the bur-
ial places of soldiers in private cemeteries whose
graves are not marked, are requested to commu-
nicate the fact to the Quartermaster General. and
give regiment, company, and date Of death Of
deceased, if known. Similar information il de-
sired from parties in charge Of such cemeteries.
OF course it is not intended to furnish head
stones for graves over which monuments have
already been erected by relatives or friends Of
the deceased.

H-It will soon be the time Of year to clean up
and adorn our homes and streets. If you can
think of something to do that will beautify and
build up the town, go and do it. Do not growl
and grumble because a sidewalk is being put
down and you have to bear share Ofthe expense,
or because it is being built in part of the town
where it will be Of no immediate use to you, but
encourage all such enterprises by your voice and
means; keep your capital at home and encourage
home industries and institutions. Help to bnild
up trade for your home merchants, SO that they
can sell more at lower prices. Get your work
done in your own town and thereby keep up all
branches ofmechanical pursuits. In other words
do all in your power to make your town the town
Of the county in point of thrift cleanliness and
business enterprise. and if your town does not
improve, it will lie at some other door than
yours .-Er.

~The editor of the Burlington Iadependen

HThe editor of the Burlington Independent
struck a delinquent with bill the delinquent
ordered his paper stopped, and thereupon We ed
itor penned an item as follows: "We do not beg
for money when we ask for arrears for subscrip-
ton; We earn that money; we are entitled to ii
and we want it when it is due; we are furnishing
a good paper, we know that, and we are as good
judge as the complaining subscriber. However,
if you don't like it, don't take it. Pay up and
discontinue. To which we add a Methodist
phrase, '.amenp' When man can't pay for
his newspaper without growing he had better
order it stopped at once. There is very little
profit in furnishing fiftytwo issues at 81. 90 and
to continue the paper after the time for which it
is paid has expired is only a matter of accommo-
iation extended to the subscriber by the pub
