hibition, and earth is not injured but
benefited by them; and those beau
tiful emblems which adorn the many
tombs around which we long to lin
ger assure us we are in a world o!
warm and loving hearts. The aIorn-
ing Of the sepulchres Of the loved
ones alleviates our grief and soothes
the wounded heart. It also cheers
the bereaved to know that an addi.
tional establishment OF the gray.
). presents stronger attractions to ar
rest the attention OF the stranger
and causes him to pause and learn
the name Of one who has shared SO
largely in tho love Of others. We
can Judge of the advancement ol
civilization by the promotion Of art,
and there is no higher type
of art than that which is dis.
played in our American cemeteries
