Mr. EnITuR:--l was very much gratlil
oil with your ar Gle IN the last CLARi' N re
'atiye to Tie condition Of the Cemetery
There are no grounds laid out for the re.
pose Of orr dead, more susceptible of inn
provemcnt, t an the Cemetery connected
with the u. b Church Of tins place, and
that 80 hltle attention has been given by
the property holders or owners OF lots, by
establishment in various ways, is mat
ter Of deep regret and has astonished stran
gers, who have Witnessed the grounds
likely to be the general place Of deposit of
the dead for this whole community BE,
causc the lands have been purchased by
the church and by it sold to individual
par,ics, having sexton connected with
tina church ia really no sufficient reason
yhv an fort should not be made on the
mari, of lot holders, to bcautity the grounds
as we find in other places of entombment
There can be nothing better calculated to
onrendcr and stimulate the finer ieelingsoi
our nature than to sec careful guard
thrown over and around the spot where
ronose our loved ones in their last resting
,,.ce In view Of this | would suggest
the ptopriety of the lot owners, meeting
t,pptAcr, and contributing sufficient
o,ount to enable the sexton to place our
cro,nds in such order, as to reflect credit
mon us as a people and community; or if
such an idea does not reflect the sonti'
meu,s of majority Of the owners, then
let US devise some other method, by which
hose grounds may be bcau'ied, and an
honor reflected on US in caring for the 81
lent homes where sleep our dear departed.

chased tickets for Springvsle on the Portland

Second Edition.

The scene at the PRESS counting room yes
terday morning was a very animated one. The
special edition containing the full report of
the American Board meetings proved a power
full attraction and the great piles of papers
which had been supposed to exceed any posi-
bic demand melted away like dew before the
sun. By ten o'clock it became apparent that
the edition though very large would be entire
~ inadequate to the public wants, and an hour
later it was evident that great number of
people would be grieyously disappointed if
they could not have more of the reports. So
it was determined to reset the type which had
been distributed and to bring out a second
edition, which will be ready on Friday next.
Those who wish to make sure of securing all
the copies they may want will do well to
leave their orders at the Press counting room
as early as possible. Papers will also be sent
By mail to any address left at the PRESS office,
as soon as published
