The Burial or Lawton

Maj. Gen. Henry w. Lawtou was
buried last Friday afternoon in the
National Cemetery at Arlington.
The services at the grave were pre-
coded BY those at the church of the
Covenant in Washinton City, where
President H. NJ. Stryker, of Hsmil
ton College, New York, delivered a
funeral GRAFTON that hiss seldom been
equsled In beauty of expression, nor
could il have been In more perfect
accord with the spirit of the solemn
occasion that called it forth. Never
in the History of the Capital has
there been q more representative gath
ering of the nations official life to
pay last tribute to the nations
bonored dead. No mark of militia
ry pomp and ceremony that the reg
lstions could provide was wanting to
render the occasion solemn and i'm
pressive. Nearly all the available
troops of the regular establishment
remaining in the country were called
out. Three thousand men, infantry,
cavalry and artillery, followed the
flag drsped caisson to the grave.
But mere official formula were dwarf
ed beside the deep popular demon
stration that the burial of the dead
soldier called forth. Every depart
ment of the government paid its off,
cisl tribute. Flags hung at half
mast. The President and his Cabi-
net, representatives of the Supreme
Court, of the house and Senate, and
of the Army aud Navy, all combined
to fill the darkened church to its
utmost. But these official represen-
tstives of the people were lost in the
great crowds that surrounded the
church and lined the streets along
which the procession passed. The
Presbyterian burial service was read
by Chaplain Pierce of Lawton's old
command, assisted by Rev. Tennis
Hamlin, pastor of the church, aud
President Stryker then arose and de
livered the grafton:
DR.. Stryker eulogized General
Lawton's military career and went
on to say:
This better Plantagenet, this latest
Bayard, without fear and
without reproach, this modern
Philip Sidney, who life also
was poetry put into action has
shown once more of what stuff is in.
corrigible msnhood-in what sub

Garibaldi would know at sight. He
was of that time enduring breed
which has made Agincourt and

Written BY a Confederate Veteran, Of
Winchester, Va, who was q
member of Capt. Thompson's
Battery, when Riddleberger
wished to repudiste the State
debt.
VIRGINIA, Mother Of States and ststemen
sage.
Whose " rks shall live in every age;
Let not thy bright escutcheon be
Coupled with dishonesty;
Let not thy record, pure and proud
BE Swallowed by dishonor's cloud;
Nor let the glory Of thy name
BE linked with word or thought OF shame.
Who in the country's darkest hour,
When struggling with the oppressor's power
Her breast more ready to lay bare.
To meet the mighty shock of WARP
And for the cOuntry's common good,
Whose sons more geaerous with their blood
Nor country strength nor life in vain.
If given in their country's name.
Not always at their castle door,
Not always near their cottage poor,
Nor always their friends and own.
Was seen their smile or heard their groan,
But where their brothers sorely pressed
In North or South. in East or West
Amid the raging battles dim.
Were struggling their sacred rights 10 win.
While sounds of conflict filled the air,
Virginia's sons were always there.
When dark and bloody grew the fray
And almost given DER the day,
Where banners trailed upon the ground
Her dead aud dying there were found.
As warriors tried; both true and brave,
Their blood and lives they freely gave;
And onward still their banners bore
Until the bloody fray was DER;
Nor counting all their duty done
Until the day was fully won.
And when the dark and lowering cloud
OF civil strife spread DER the land,
Whose thunderous accents, deep and loud.
Proclaimed the dreaded storm at hand
Virginia. then As in the past,
Sought not a shelter from its blast:
As falls upon the sturdy oak.
The m ghty storms impetuous shock.
As falls giants crushing blows
Upon the firm. resisting rock.
So fell wars heavy blows again.
Upon her valley, hill and plain,
And loud resounded far and wide
On every hand, on every side,
Throughout her borders, near and far.
The angry voice Of bloody war;
And not a rock, nor tree nor flower,
But felt its force and knew its power.
Virginia still undaunted stood.
Nor spared her treasure, nor her blood
Foremost amid the raging fight.
For what she deemed the cause Of right;
And, if erchance the cause was wrong.
For which she struggled well and long
The fortitude with which she stood
The scorching fire. the staining blood
That as mantle DER her spread,
Has answered well in virtues stead.
And had her past traditions grand,
Then been by dark oblivi US hand.
Enshrouded in perpetual might,
Her valor in that sanguine fight
Had kindled afresh the fire Of fame
To shred its lustre DER her name.
Oh! Sigh Of pity! Blush of shame,
That now upon that honored name,
Her recreant sons would madly place
The mark OF deep and dishonored disgrace.
Let not her dirge be sounded yet,
Let not her sons their sires forget,
Who for her fame with valOr fought
Who with their blod her honor bought
But as long as times untiring wing
Shall in Its flight each season bring.
As long as day is clad in light.
Or sable garments cover night,
As long as the sparks shall upward fly,
Let not Virginia's honor die.
