Questionable Funeral Economy

MeSsrs. EditOrs.-I observed among the
selections in your last number, an article
cOndemning the extravagant expenditure
in flowers, caskets, etc., at funerals. As
this practice is mostly confined to the rich
and is as often an expression of tender
regard for the dead as of an ostentatious
desire to display the wealth and taste OF
the living, it should not be too seYerally
condemned. Let me call your attention to
the opposite evil-too great economy at
funerals. 1t it is found among the class
who rarely, if ever, attend public worship
and who never give anything for the sup
port of the gospel and is displayed not in
the cheapness of the coffin or the absence
of floral decorations, but IN asking the
services Of Il clergyman with no thought
of re warding him. When death occurs
among these persons, however goddess the
life of the deceased; he must have chris
ton burial, and his friends apply without
hesitation to clergymay to perform relig-
ioue services at the funeral. The good
man responds to their request and with his
own conveyance he goes, sometimes two or
three miles, through heat or cold.or storm,
perhaps over almost impossible roads
spending the time and strength which are
imperatively demanded to perform the
duties of his church, forwho those have no
claim upon or are perhaps strangers to
him. In the majority of cases he receives
not the slightest remuneration, sometimes
not the small gratitude which finds e1-
preston in a word of thanks.
If the same family required his services
at wedding, the marriage fee would not
be forgotten. By what rule of justice do
they withhold his due when an equal
amount of time and labor has been spent
at funeral? Is it not time for reform
in this matter? There are few families SC
poor that they could not give some small
present to show their appreciation Of serv'
ices rendered.
No personal interest prompts the reform
here advocated, as the writer is not cler
gyman, or even related to one, but Onl!
friend of right and justice. NJ.

The concert Of Messrs. Pixley and |

evening was slImly attended, probably from
the fact that they were very imperfectly
advertised, and from the further fact that
they were strangers-neVer having visited
AshIabala, although they have grown gray
in the field as vocal eoneerters. Their
music is Of very fine character-much of it
sweetly devOtional-as solos and Duets
such rs can hardly be listened to without
a softening and improving effect. At the
Congregational church on Sunday evening
they gave Praise meeting and occupied
the evening hour in most agreeable and
profitable way. The audience was large
and such was the pleasure of the occasion
that all criticism was hushed and every
one went away feeling the better for their
attendance. They were earnestly invited
to come again, and a good house promised,
and every encouragement given that prob
ably they would do so at no very distant
day.

There is already great interest shown in
Europe in behalf of poor flooded Siege
din, in Hungary. The papers report
$1,000 subscribed to the Mansion House
Fund in London. We Americans, always
sympathizing with suffering humanity
everywhere, should certainly hasten to add
to the number of Szegedn's benefactors.
We,therefore, respectfully beg you to notice
the fact that his Honor Edward Cooper,

ceive subscriptions for the relief Of the des-
titute and houseless sufferers of Szegedin.

speech in opposition to the bill looking to

that any alteration Of either front Of the /
Capitol for such purposes would be an act

OF separate structure of large dimensions,
to hold the annual contributions of 10000
volumes made to the Government library.
