BIZ ARTEEsER."
Obi lightly tread, 'tls hallowed ground,
Your footstep presses now
A hero sleeps beneath the mound,
with deepest rcyerance bow
A nation glOrifes his name,
His soul lives with his God;
A proud, exalted, peerless fame
Brcathes DER his hallowed sod
A charm-a spell 'round his great name
Shall linger through oil times
Succeeding ages shall proclaim
His life-his death, sublime.
IT'S here he lies, here jackson sleeps,
In this his lowly bed;
The nation gathers round and wceps,
And mours its noble dead.
Hope breathes sigh-Grief drops tear,
The hero is no more;
Faith gently whispers, cease all fear,
Hes only gone before"
His soul ON high in realms of light,
Basks in a savior's love;
he mounts on glory's piuious bright,
To plead our cause above.

Tor the West in bulk, at a low rate of
freight. While buying apples he also
purchased Bartlett pears, which he
also shipped along with the apples in

ne would have to pay double rates. as
he chartered the car for apples and
not for pears. The shipper said he
could see no difference. He was nav.
ing the farmer for his produce. which
II he did not buy would rot, and that
ne was shipping the pears in bulk iustas
ne was the apples; bnt if he had to nav
