MemO3 tal Day.

To-day is Decoration Day, the return
of the period when, for brief time, we
forget the cares and labors of the living
to pay respect to the memory of the dead
OF whom, as victims of an earlier war,
OHara grandly wrote
1T e mufi.d drums sad roll ha. sea,
lhe soldiers last tattoo;
, more on LIES parade shall meet
mat brave and fallen few;
Ga Fdme's immortal camplr grsnnd
Ihrlr silent tents are spread,
And Glory guards with solemn round
The BlNouac of the Dead
The custom of bringing flowers to deck
the graves of our fallen heroes was an
outgrowth of the warm gratitude of loyal
hearts to the brave men who saved our
country from destruction. While that
gratitude tiui5 many modes of xpr e.
sion III private channels, it Peaches It's
most imposing manifestation in the cere-
monies to be observed to-day-in pub
lie holiday and a general recognition of
the dead, and expressed III pilgrimages to
their resting places, and the making of
their graves sacred shrines on which to
place the brightest flowers of the season,
believed with the tears of those to whom
the sleepers below were once near and
dear.
1t would be easy to moralize at length
upon the event. but our words would be
poor III comparison with the acts that will
mark the tlme-a time apparently fore
seen by Collins, the English poet of
previous century, when he said
Glow sleep the brave who sink to rest
ny all their cpuntTy's wishes blest,
When spring with dewy fingers cold
Returns 10 deck their halowed mould,
she there snail dress loyelier sod
Than Fducy's feet have ever trOd.
By fairy hands their kne Is ruug;
BY forms unseen their dirge Is sung
Iher- II 'nOr comes, pllg i'm gray,
To deck the turf that wraps their clay
And Freedom sinai. awhile repair
TOdwell d weeping hermit there
TIE body of the brave soldier is dead /:
"The cannon may roar and the musketry rattle;
II needs not, he hears not he's free from all
pain;
lie ma. fought his last ngh he has won his last
battle
No sound snail awake him 10 combat again"
But he lives in our history his men,
DRY is among the noblest inheritances OF
his country, and 80 long as the republic
shall endure there will be hearts that
beat quicker and eyes that flash brighter
through sudden tears, when the tongue
shall boast, My ancestor died to save
his country" Peaceful be the sleep and
shady the resting place of the loved and
lost fair be the day, and as wideas their
graves be the decoration and the respect,

 Milan is taking the lead in cremation in l Italy, having furnished 362 out of the 463 | cases since 1876. The other places which have followed the example of Milan in es- tablishing crematories are Lodi, Rome, Gre mona, Vareze and Spezia, while Novara, Venice, Florence, Piza, Leghorn and Turin arc arranging for these establishments. Gre matory associations with 5000 members have been formed in 19 other towns.
 Fifteen thousand men who were drafted in the State of New York in 1863 are uniting in a movement to procure reimbursement from their counties for the money they paid for substitutes in the war. They say that half the counties of the State paid all the ex- penses of the drafts, which were four in number, and that the remaining counties paid all the expenses in filling the drafts ex- cept the first. In this, made in 1863, the expense of filling the draft in their counties was paid by the men drafted. They now wish the legislature to pass law authoriz- ing the supervisors to make provision to re- imburse them for their expenses when a ma jority of the taxpayers petition them to doso.
 Senator Palmer of Michigan is a phi1oso- pher as well as lucky man. He has an in- come of $175, 900 year, and is said to have purchased charm in early youth to which he attributes much of his luck. This charm was made in Persia and secured by young Palmer during his three years wandering in Spain, where he injured his feet with long tramps that he has been able to wear only cloth shoes since. He said the other day that life was almost wholly made up of illusions. "The happiest man." said he, 'fis the one who has the most illusions. There are only three real substantial things that you can get out of life, and the man who has those at the required intervals is as well off as the richest. The three realities are a full stomach, good suit of clothes and a l bed to sleep in Everything else belongs to the realm of illusions"
