Decoration Day.

For the first time we attended
the annual decoration at Pittsburg
Landing last Saturday. These
decorations were instituted by the
National Government that friends
of the deceased soldiers may come
together and do honor to the re-
membered dead by decorating the
graves and appropriate ceremo.
MES. The decorations consisted
of small flags erected at each
maidstone and the ceremonies in
speech making. The orators of
the day were Benz. Gum, of Coal
vale, Kan; NJ. r. Alternately and
Rev. Cotton, of Purdy. Mr., Gum
who has been visiting in the South
for several weeks spoke of the
hospitality of this people, and the
good feeling that prevails in the
North for the people of the South.
Up to the time of our departure
at 3 p. M, the crowd, which is said
to be the largest ever assembled
there, was reasonably quiet and
orderly and bore some traces OF
reverence. We were informed by
parties who remained to the
close that good order continued to
prevail throughout the day.
1t has been the custom for sew
eral years by some miscreants
to have whisky near the cemetery
and sell the same TO all who de
sired to use it and the consequence
was that much fighting and bois
ferrous language was INDUCED il
toward the close of the day; bu
prudence prevailed on this occa
sion, and the keen eye of the law
soon found the dispenser of liq
uOrs and he was Immediately SEN
to the county Jail in irons, and {
repetition of hoodlumism averted
And we were assured by the man
agement that in the future extra
precautions would be adopted foI
the protection of those who visit
ed the place out of reverence fo
the dead.
