o, the Nations love ne'er lags for our
cherished battle flags,
Holding their tattered folds in reverence:
hope without compare,
We burn for them our choicest incense.
Chorus:
Our battle flags forever, hurrahl boys,
hurrahi
Their grandeur and glory arise to the skiesI
So we honor once again our glorious battle
flags,
Guarding their sacred folds in reverence.
o, their stripes begrimed with smoke tell
of days when cannon spoke,
Thund ring Gods fiery wrath and anger,
And their cOl0rs, dimmed and old, tell OF
heroes brave and bold,
Defying the lightning bolts of danger.
They are rent with shot and shell, for they
waved where heroes fell,
Defending to death their cOuntry'S liberty.
They are stained with Likelihood red, for
they trailed to kiss the dead,
Then rose TO lead the van to victory.
They shine with consecrated stars, bathed
in blood of conQuerOrS,
Baptized in fire purifying.
We revere each ShOtted shred, Jagged
wound and blood-stained thread,
Freedoms pure banner Sanctifying.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: / saw an

was that Hood did note attack his corps the
night before the Franklin battle; for, he said,
the whole army of Hoods lay on the right OF
the road, about 300 or 400 rods from where
they were passing, and let the Union troops
pass
Sherman had three Departmcnts-the
Army OF Georgia, the Army Of the Tennessee,
and the Fourth and Twepty-thir,l Corps
Gen. Hood started back across the Chaita-
hoochie River with the intention of drawing
Gen. Sherman's army back as far as he could,
even to Nashvile!Q Then he knew Sherman
would have to fight all over the same ground
back to Atlanta, for Hood could not fight
an even battle with Sherman's army, and his
object was to act on the defensive and reduce
Sherman's numbers. Sherman's whole army
followed Hoods army part of the way on the
back track.

salmon ova for New Zealand.

A few days ago six boxes containing
about 10000 salmon ova were placed
on board the steamship Rimutaka, ly-
ing in the London docks, and these
are now we'll on their way to their
destination in New Zealand. The es-
tablishment of trout in many waters
at the antipodes (Which formerly We're
absolutely bare of that variety OF fish)
has been successfully accomplished.
Many rivers at the other side of the
world are now plentifully stocked and
yield fish in abundance and Of remark
able size.
The project of dispatching a con-
signment of salmon ova this year to
New Zealand has been attended with
no little difficulty. So many of the
fishery boards throughout the country
have now started fish hatcheries fol
districts that they are naturally some
what loath to give permission for the
collection of ova for stocking other
than their own waters. At times, in
deed, owing to various causes, they
find it difficult to get sufficient oVa to
fill their Matching troughs, let alone
those of others. Due to the kindly
Intervention of the duke of Richmond,
who, it should be recollected, has
fish hatchery near Fochabers, permis-
sion was granted to collect ova from
the .Spey, and under the direction OF
Spey fish and carefully deposited at
Howietoun, whence they were in due
course packed and dispatched on their
long journey. The Spey, Forth and
Teith have each contributed oya for
this shipment to New Zealand. From
the first mentioned has been sent the
largest number, and it is hoped that
further consignment Of between
so 0Oo and $4,000 Spey oya will short
Iy be forwarded from the Howietoun

In a MEXICAN Cemetery.

A correspondent describes the queer
cemetery of the Mexican village OF
Guanajuato. There is hardly room in
Guanajuato for the living, so it be-
hooves her people to exercise rigid
economy in the disposition of her
dead The burial place is on the top
of steep hill, which oyerlooks the
city, and consists of an area inclosed
by what appears from the outside to
be high wall, but which discovers it,
self from within to be a receptacle for
bodies, which are placed in tiers. much
as the confines of the native valleys
compel them to live Each compart-
ment in the wall is large enough to adj
nit one coffin, and is rented for one
dollar per month. The poor people are
buried in the ground without coffin,
though one is usually rented, in which
the body is conveyed to the grave. AS
there are not graves enough to go
around, whenever new one is needed
a previous tenant must be disturbed
and this likewise happens when a
tenants rent is not promptly paid i'll
advance. The body is then removed
from its place in the mausoleum, or
exhumed, as the case may be, and the
bones are thrown into the basement

The Little Mother was as pretty as

than of old, and the chance resembl-
ance which her two sons had discover

had SO much endeared the latter to
them both, was emphasized by sim

them coquettishly at the back of her

Both greeted Dudley with delight;
and he, bronzed almost beyond recog-

curls, threw his arms about them both

Betty laughed and blushed, half
vexed, for was there not something a
little too brotherly in such a greeting?
But Dudley's first words dispelled
her misgivings, as in tones of deep
tenderness he exclaimed
