MEMORIAL DAY.
Augusta Exercises Will Be Different
from Usual, This Year.
Parade Will Not Visit Cemeteries Memoirs
Address In the Afternoon.

A change has been decided upon for
the Memorial exercises this year, as
they will be observed in Augusta, a
change that will be welcome enough to
many an old soldier, to whom the
march to the cemeteries on the hill has
for years been a task hard for them
to endure--and harder as time goes by.
There will be parade to the Soldiers
monument, as usual. but, the decora-
ton of the graves will take place in the
morning. by members of Seth Williams
Post, G. A. r. A certain number will
be detailed TO visit the graves in the
morning Of the Monday on which the
day will be observed, and place the
flowers and wreaths over those who
have gone on before. They will have
carriages, and the duty of commence
ration, pleasant one of itself to the
veterans, will be made sensibly free
from the hardships.
formalfX decorated, the line of march
will not be made 10 the long hill.
Gradually, in years past, the attend
ances on the parade have been grow
ing less and less. And then, too have
many gone, who could only with great
difficulty and often with serious results
keep with the ranks until the return.
1t is proposed this year, to form
about o'clock, in Market square and
march up Water street to Bridge,
thence down State street to the monu-
ment, where the usual exercises will
be held under the direction of Capt. A
a. Nichols, the commander of the
Post. After they are over. the process
sion will go directly TO City hall. where
the Grafton will be given. This has
usually been delivered in the evening.

Bring llliea--crowncd with blossoms be
The head so lately crowned with thorn.
The roses were the first to hear:
Ere yet the dark had dreamed of dawn,
The faintest rustic reached their ear:
They heard the napkin downward drawn;
They listened to His breathing low;
His feet upon the threshold fall.
Bring roses-sweetest buds that blow.
His love the perfume OF them all.
The lilies were the first to see:
They. watching In the morning gray.
Saw angels come SO silently
And roll the mighty stone away;
They saw Him pass the portals gloom;
He brushed their leaves--oh. happy
doweri
Bring lilies-purest buds that bloom.
His face reflected In each flower
The roses were the first TO hear.
Tho lilics were the first TO SEQ;
Bring fragrant flowers from far and near
To match the Easter melody!
