withstanding it was thought that
nearly everybody had gone to the
Jubilee, it was demonstrated that
there was enough inhabitants re-

containing Queen and her attend
ants, took lead in the procession

Those Rocky-mountain heroes,
The noble mountalneers,
God crown their hoary head with
Peace
Soo.he their declining years;
The valiant old veterans of Utah.
Fifty years have lapsed and vanish d
When nigh Council Bluffs was seen,
A weary Band of Pilgrims,
with all their camp 10 ltine.
Their eyes we're looking westward
t For haven yet unseen,
Ashley were marching to Utah.
Ger trackless wilds, and sagebrush,
Ger many a turbid stream,
Throuhg wild and somber Canyons
now.
Where locomotives scream;
With weary limbs and bleeding feet,
They urged their jaded teams,
AS they came marchihg to Utah.
Their sufferings and hardships.
Time will not lei me call,
Of stampedes rajding Indians,
The horrid midnight yell
The sad and lonely funerals,
Without the dirge of Bell,
AS they came marching to Utah.
With faces plnched by hunger,
They trod the desert wilds,
The famishe d Mother failing.
TO nurse her new born child
Yet midst these dire privations,
God looked on them and smiled,
AS they came marching to Utah.
The Race oft fails the feetest,
The Battle Shun's the strong:
Yet faith and courage ne'er forsook
Their Leader, Brigham Young,
Whose Kindly words of counsel,
Each day led them along
AS they came marching to Utah.
Yes like their Pilgrim Fathers,
They bowed the knee in prayer;
Gave thanks to God Almighty,
For His Kind and loving care.
Their Vespers' then through tented
camp. 1&
Made music in the air.
AS they came marching to Utah
At length they reached the Valley,
The Haven of their rest;
With Lake Of briny waters,
Respondent in the west;
On Ensigns Peak they planted
Our Nations noble crest,
IA they came marching to Utah.
Behold! what fifty years hath
wrought,
It's writ on Hist'ry's page;.
The land subdued, rich mines
unearth'd.
The wonders of the age
Farms, Orchards, Homes, and
Vineyards,
Where once grew Plains of Sage
And to day there's rejoicing in
Utah.
On these silvery headed Veterans.
Let the Laurel Chaplet rest,
A Lion heart Regalia;
Adorn each veterans breast:
To God be all the glory
Inscribed upon the Crests,
Of these grand old Founders of
Utah.
Yea, let the craven motto,

Of GLORIOUS setting Sun!
Be blazon'd on their coat of arms,
Emblem, of victory won,

They have been busy ones, and they

equal to, on every occasion.
Calling on Mr.. Bradbury, on his birth

scented his venerable father with a
beautiful floral piece. undoubtedly the
most elaborate that has ever been seen
in Augusta.
1t was in the form of a great horse

standing on pedestal of bank Of
flowers was about five feet in height.
The horseshoe was made of magnili-

The horn of plenty is white, made Of
rilly flowers. OF these, the base. on
which the piece is mounted is made
with "1S02-1S97'' inscribed across the

shows the spirit of all-good luck, with
the plenty which more years of life may
