QUIZ BURIED BRAVES.

For the dead our heart has cherished
Love her tribute tear must render
Eor the friends in peace that perished
There is sorrow true and tender, =
And silence on our life
Shuts the door,
But the hearts Of millions tremble
With the mighty tribulation.
And the sad in troops assemble
When the champions of n nation
Back from honor's fields OF strife
Come no more.
Farm and village. town and city
Hail them martyrs, name them sigbing:
Nobler grief than sofrOwing pity
lfeedom' s heroes earned In diving,
And the flower of praise is sweet
On their graves.
Some asleep beneath the willows.
Some asleep where valor slew them
soft from lips that kissed their pillows,
Soft from eyes that never knew them
Drop the benisons that greet
Fallen braves.
Far from dear domestic pleasure.
Iiresidc scenes and children pra'tle,
free they spent their vital treasure
IN the wasting march and battle,
Following their flag of fame
Where il flew.
Till new hopes in moonlight, beauty
Smiled thro terror lifting shadows,
III the harvest after duty
ltpeued peace on blood-staincd meadows,
And their dream Of triumph came
Graudy true
Lives like fallen foliage sircwing
Holy ground They fell not yainly.
Ircelom's tees are greener growing
For their fading and more plainly
Nornal promise lights the land
Where they lie:
For their relies left 10 mouldcr
Richer made the .otl that bore them,
And their memory old and older
Tells the living who deplorc them
There are deeds whose virtue Grand
Cannot die
Hring your blessings gray haired fathers,
Ihluhood with your sweet sedatcness.-
While graf '.uI country gathers
Round the sayiors of her greatness,
And her thron.s IN mourning met,
Scatter bloom.
Come with tribute true and tender.
Laurel wrcaths and lyric numbers,

After two thousand actions in the

At that final review in Washington
there was very little left of the pom

was a thing of necessity that they
should look for steady and systematic
aid to the country which they had as
sisted TO save.
Hence, the Order has taken the lead
in stimulating and guiding legislation
in behalf of the soldiers and their de
perdcuts, and Congress has shown
itself attentive to its suggestions.
A vast amount of good, however,
has been done by the local posts alone.
To the Grand Army of the Republic
we arc indebted for one of the most
interesting and impressive of our cere-
monial days-that on which the graves
of the soldiers are decorated. The idea
originated in the mind of German
who had served as private in the
Union army, whose name has not been
| preserved.
/ Early in May, 1868, he wrote to the
, Adiutant General Of the Grand Army
saving that in his native country II
was the custom of the people in th'
, spring to visit the burying grounds,ant
t place flowers upon the graves of thei
n friends and relatives. He suggested
that the Grand Army should designate
G day for the decoration OF the grave
o of the soldiers.
e The idea met with favor, and Ger
= John A. Logan, then Commander i
/. Chief of the Grand Army, prompt
promulgated an order setting apart III
lc Thirtieth of May for the purpose.
es General Logan expressed the hof
rs that the observance would be kept u
T. from year TO year so long as one su
r, yivor of the war remained to honor u
st memory of his departed comrades.
I'd Memorial Day has been observe
with increasing impressiyuness evl
gs since and the day is now legal hol
ge day in most Of the Northern States ca
RS. of the Mississippi river
'e- In 1871 the Grand Army could clai
RS, but thirty thousand members. In lS
ch a great increase began, until the VINO
Ii. number of members approached 10
m, hundred thousand.
iv- While the great object of this arI
}. of men has been TO promote the me'
lly ures looking TO the reliefand advai
ri age of the soldiers and those dependee
eld upon them, they have taken leadi
CO. part also in the erection of the innu
mt erable monuments to the memory
ces fallen comrades which adorn our p'
lie grounds and cemeteries.
,sts Other nations have heaped tho m
lin' bountiful rewards upon the success
her generals of a great war. We ha
perhaps, not been sufficiently gener
n to to the leaders in the war; but II
me, natural, in Republic, that the n
and and file of the army should be the cl
SER recipients of national beneiaction.

A fine old "chcstnup-a most re-
narkably long.headed, iiowihg-
BEARDED, and patriarchal" story, as
Dick Swivcllcr would put it--may DC
.ecalled with profit, now that all our
raiders are stricken with the "taste-

orief, that an ingenious old lady sent
round TO a number OF shops LOT
samples Of tea, and in this way oo-
tanned gratis sufficient TO last her Tor
A twelve-month.
The same dodge is frequently prac-
tiscd on drapers. Ladies OF other-

Taking, then, the facility Tor frau'
