OF by-gone days; to those years of war and
its consequent hardships, and | recall with

years. The war se0ver, the rebellion
has been crushed. peace and plenty are
everywhere apparent. The flag of the
Union floats from every port in the United
States, the slave Is free the South is re-
covering from the. rslYages of the war, and
the stories of those stirring times seem
now like the legends of the olden time.
One more scene remains and will then
draw the curtain! 81
1t is a Sabbaths morning, the air is
fragrant with blossom and flower, the
birds are carolling sHeetly n requiem for
the dead. Around US, sleeping the sleep
that knows no waking, lie the forms of
those whom we knew Hnd loved. We are
in the city of the dead" The wind sighs
through the waving branches Of the trees
with a mournful melody suggestive of the
place. Near by is the bustling city, but
here we are surrounded only by the mute
though eloquent testimonies of mans eter-
nal rest. Here beneath dropping willow
let us pause awhile. Flowers are bloom
ing over q mound of earth, saturating the
atmosphere with a grateful aroma. Let
us lean over while we read what is in
