sYLvASIA GRAND ARMY OF THE
REPUBLIC,
PbiIadulnhia Nav Il 1881


sYLvASIA GRAND ARMY OF THE
REPUBLIC,
Philadelphia, May IA, 1881.
In compliance With Rules and Regu.
latiors and existing Orders, Monday
May 30tb, will be observed as Memor-
ial Day, throughout this Department.
As we are called upon to devote but
one day of the year, to rendering tribute
to the memory of our dead comrades,
it is expected that upon that day the
pursuits and cares OF daily life will be
put aside, and tnat every comrade of
the Order will participate in the solemn
and impressive services, showing to the
world, that with us at least, the men,
ores of our dead companions in arms,
have not grown dim with passing years,
and that we, who through the dispen
sation of Providence, have been per-
mItted to survive them, fully sppre-
ciate the privileges we enjoy.
Let the exercises Of the day be SO
arranged and conducted, as to reflect
no discredit upon our organization, and
prove that with the Grand Army Mem
orial Day Is not one Of merriment or
festivity, but day, when the mind OF
the American Soldier, Is given to sober
thoughts and earnest acts, as pure and
as patriotic, as those that moved him,
when he enrolled himself as volunteer
soldier of his country, and went forth to
battle for its honor and the perpetuity
of its institutions As the associations
of the day are sad and its memories
sacred, may its influences be ennobling
and elevating, melting in each, a pure.
and more generous patriotism.
Our Nation readily joins with US in
paying our annual floral tribute to the
Nations dead, believing that their lives
were part of the terrible ransom paid
for the present existence of the Govern
ment, and prosperity of our people.
In localities in the State, where
there is no Post of the Grand Army, it
is hoped that the citizens thereof, will
assume the duty of decorating the
graves of all soldiers buried in their
vicinity.
Throughout the grand old State of
Pennsylvania, let not single soldiers
grave, however lonely, howeve. hum
Bile, be unadorned with flowers, on
the evening of May Both.
Forms of Decoration ceremonies can
be bad upon application to the Assis-
tant Adjutant General.
As a matter Of interesting informa-
tion and !or the purpose Of future use,
report should be made on the blanks
furnished, of the location of each Gem
etery and the lumber of graves, which
have been decorated by the Post or BY
other organizations.
By Command Of JOHN TAYLOR, De-
partment Commander.
j NJ. VANDERSLICE,
Assistant Adjutant General.

Two Journeys.

"I 20 on journey far away"
He said-and he stopped and kissed me
s0ver the ocean for many a day
Goodbye" and he kissed me once again.
But only few short months had fed
When again answered nv husbands kiss
81 could not tarry away," he said
"There is never land as fair as this"
Again I stood by my husbands side.
al go on journey, sweet, to-day;
Over the river the bostmen glide
Goodbye; shall liDger long away"
"Ah, he will come back soon, know"
/ said, as l stopped for the parting kiss
"He cannot tarry, he told me so.
There is never a land so fair as this"
But many month and many year
Have flown since my darling went away.
Will he never come back to meet me here
Has he found the region of perfect day .
Over the ocean he went and came;
Over the river, and fingers there
Oh, pallid boatman call my name
Show NE the region 30 wondrous fair.

A Lucky Horseshoe.
A farmer travelling with his lead

A farmer travelling with his lead
Picked up horseshoe on the road,
And nailed it fast to his barn door
That Luck might down upon him Four
That every blessing known in life
Might crown his home5tead and his wifs,
And never any kind cf harm
Descend upon his growing farm.
But dire i'll fortune soon tegar
To visit the astonnded man.
His hens declined tc lay their eggs;
His bacon tumbled from the pegs,
And rats devourea the fallen legs;
His corn, that never failed before,
Mildewed and rotted on the floor;
His grass refused to end in hay
His cattle died or went astray;
In short, all went the crooked way.
Next spring great drought baked the sod, +,
And roasted every pea in pod;
The beans declared they could not grow
So long as nature acted so;
Redundant insects reared their brood
To starve for lack of juicy food;
The slaves barrel sides went off
As if they had the whooping cough,
And nothing of the useful kind
To hold together felt inclined
In short, it xas no use to try
While all the land was in fry:
One morn, deuioralized with grief,
The farmer clainored for relief,
And prayed right hard to understand
What witchcraft Possessed the lsnt
Why House and farm in misery grew
Since he nailed up that "lucky" shoe.
While thus dismSyed DER matters wrong
And old man chanced 10 trudge along,
To whom he told, with wormwood tears,
How his affairs were in arrears,
And what desperate state of things
A picked-up horseshoe sometimes brings,
The stranger asked to see the shoe;
The farmer brought it into view,
But when the old man raised his head
He larghed outright, and quickly said;
"No wonder skies upon you frown-
You've nailed the horseshoe upside down!
Just turn it round, and soon you'll see
How you and Fortune will agree"
The farmer turned the horseshoe round,
And showers began to swell tie grothdi
The sunshine laughed among the grain,
And heaps and heap, piled up the vain;
The loft bis hay could barely hold
His cattle did as they were told
His fruit trees needed sturdy props
To cold the gathering apple cropsi
His turnip and potato fields
Astonished all men by their yields;
Folks never saw such ears Of corn
As in his smiling hills were born;
His barn was full of busting bins
His wife presented him with twins;
His neighbors marvcled more and mere
To see the increase in his store.
And now the merry farmer sings:
There are two ways of dong thingsi
And when for good luck you would pray,
Nail up your horseshoe the right way"

A CONTEST is going on in st. Louis about
the use of electric wires for photographing
purposes. Sometime ago the Bowman ban
quet was photographed by the electric light,
and now photographer is anxious to use
the light in his gallery, and he had at least
made arrangements by which wires to con-
duct the electricity were to be run from the
batteries which supply the light at Bars.
The owners of the property between Bars
and the gallery were willing for the wires to
be passed over the tops of the houses, and
everything was ready, when 1t was found
that no private person could put up wires,
but corporations only. The telephone wires
however, win be brought into requisition,
and a handsome experiment viii be made.

protection against ~ rc.occufroncc. IN.
like yellow fever, II gives timely warning Of
lis approach and siege commencement

Bronze Johns attack Is abrupt,

indications for days in advance, and gem
eral listlessness and apathy. This poison
is not cognizablc by the senses, nor can 1t
be detected by chemical tests; II is known
only by its effects. These are some OF the
leading features of these malarial troubles
that have been dominating the regions
most suited to their existence, and that
have sought to intrude them
selves into sections that never knew
them before. Though not fatal as rule,
when under the vigilant eye Of the careful
nurse, instructed by the skilled physician,
vet they are facilitating in the extreme,
and are often alarming in their symptoms,
and sometime leave permanent ill-efiects.
1t is to be hoped that since public attention
has thus in the various portions OF this
country been directed to them, some cura-
tive remedy will be discovered by those of
the medical profession under whose
supervision so many cases come. AS
it is now, it is only left for the
captured patient to pit his vitality
against the vigor of the foe, for the physi-
clan to watch his opportunities and take
snap Judgment upon the retiring enemy to
prevent it's return with the olden force. All
this may not be consolatory to the afflicted
one nor very creditable to the progress OF
the cause of medicine, yet it is only like
limit to the abilities and facilities of all
other departments of poor weak though
ambitious and captious humanity.

A Gravy Mon,s Halluoination.

A young man, and q stranger in the city
with terrific expression upon his face, ac-
costed HERALD reporter at the corner Of
Main and Lamar streets yesterday morning,
with the startling statement that man
had Just that minute been MUIR
dered at the Texas & Pacific
depot. Being DESTROYS of gathering a few
particulars of the affair, the reporter lost no
time in making the depot, and was aston
ished to learn that no such thing had &C.
Cured as was related to him by the man,
and putting the story down as a
hoax, he was retracing hi, steps
when he met. the man
and two police hurrying toward the de-
pot. He still insisted that a brother-in-law
of his by the name of Lenly, from Rogers
vile, Indiana, had been cut to death in a
box car standing at the depot. On inquiry
the officers found that nothing of the
kind had happened, and they arrived at the
very sensible conclusion that the man, who
gave his name as Robert Stillman, was
not of sound mind, and they took him in
charge to lock him up for safe keeping, but
they subsequently released him, as he
promised to go to Corsicana, where he
claimed he has brother living.

THE Texas e. st. Louis railroad is
going right ahead, and is expected to have
its system from Cairo, via Dallas and Waco,

ration of another twelve months. All the
rails have been bought, and $50 locomo-
tives have been ordered for this company.
So promising are the prospects of a fine

the outset after the completion of the line
it will pay interest on its bonds and g
per cent on its stock.
