" , The telegraph on Friday brought us news of a hanging at Plymouth, Mass., which was conducted under humane arrangements which must have been grateful to the philanthro pists. '"The curiously-arranged pull ing apparatus and weights used in jerking Aim," we are informed, have been "patented." This is gratifying. It is a doably beneficial invention. It benefits the being whose neck is 'jerked" and also the patentee We are induced to suppose 'that capital punishment will now be shorn some what of its horrors, and that the hu mane opposers of'thobusinesrf of life-" taking under law will forego" further opposition, as they may consider that hanging by the new apparatus is the very easiest and kindest way of dis posing of a man. With" the "jerk" -it must put one soon out of his mis ery; and since it originates in Ply t mouth is all the more commendable to all good people.

LARGE - PHOCES310N-1NTEREST. ING CERKITIONIES SCENES AND INCIDENTS. .. Yesterday da wned again Memorial Day, an occasion always fraught with tender memories of bygone days and sad recollec tions of omt "honored dead." From an early hour it was apparent that our citizens bore in mind the character and import of the day; 1 4ccoring! to) raay slatg4sao made by the daily papers and tbe different trade organizations, business was generally suspended. The bell that sounded fromj the market house at one o'clock was a sig nal for the closing of nearly all the places of business upon the public jstreets. , Soon after the eity wore' 4 holiday appearance; very little ofthe usual traffic of a business day seemed to be going on, and the streets were almost deserted. All our . business men seemed to be busily engaged making preparations to join In " the memorial cere monies. f r 6 jg'i A visit to the Court House revealed the fact, that some of he : office! in tiuft build ing were closed in honor of the day. The doors of the offices of the Judge of Probate and of 8. Van Amrlnge, - Esq., bore ? the words t Confederate Memorial Day. s j This office, closed." A. tinge of; sadness seemed, to be apparent throughout , the .. thorough fares that but a few hours before were the scenes of busy life. . . '. s.

The weather seemed-to promise fair, the sun shone with its wonted Spring brightness and warmth; while a gentle breeze blew with just sufficient coolness to temper the genial rays of the sun, and render all pleasant and agreeable. ; It w;as a day . to awake appro priate, thoughts of the memories of the hal lowed dead. . THK FBOCESSIOX. Soon again the streets wore a busy ap. pearance. All the organizations wuicu were to take part in the .ceremonies were seen marching' up foiheir apprbpr1afe"Aplaces, while the; sidewalks , were ..thronged with spectators.

CEREM05IE8 AT THE CEXETERY. The'exefcises in the Confederate .ot were J thelr'fragrant loveliness, to make it hallow announced by the Chief Marshal in their j ed as a time when they cease from'thei KNING ' order, and consisted first of a very appro priate hymn sung by the choir, after which, the Chaplain, Rev. J. E. Mann, offered up a fervent prayer tOitherhrpnof Grace to bring blessings upon' the "floral" offerings about to be placed upon the hallowed mound. To ask the grace of the most high for the pure minds and senile souls that joined m this tribute to the memory pf the dead. About this time the Sky became overcast with clouds and the wind blew in angry gusts through the quiet shades of Oakdale. A little flutter of excitement was apparebt ' among the 4adies, r which was very much increased Dy the sudden fail of a few drops of rain. Some portion of the immense throng that crowded around the outside of the lot rapidly took their way to . a shelter.- Fortunately, ! however, the threatening aspect of the weather tempered llqwn intoa gloomy appeararice df the sky, with not much indication of rain. No in terruption of the exercises occurred, hQW eyer? and Ythe -prayer was followed by a solemn" dirge by the choir, when E Martin, Esq., orator of the day, fol lowed n a lengthy and beautiful Memorial Address, of which we are restricted to a synopsis, on account of a want of sufficient space to produce the address entire. 3 Mr. Martin in beginning his discourse made reference, to a memorial day among the Atheniaus over 2,200 years ago, when '. to testify the gratitude of the city, to"com mcmorate the valiant heroism of those who bad fallen ia her defence,- memorial .day , was decreed,' ani Pericles sounded. their praise in words ' .Whose ' eloquence has echoed down the 'corridors of Time for : twehtel:qrieNi4. sounding down tbe.afctjmpfjishahle .monument to their fuie auU Atriotisux'iJ 0'i.' doubt, said, lefion haspjemn occa sion, the- Athenian matrons and maidens were rprt-sent, with f tearful eye and taste- f nl baud to wreath garlands- for-the noble dead; aud, he continued, to-day under the auspices of the adies of theMemorial As sociation, the pilgrimage of patriotism is accomplWhed -and -?wer stand on fallowed ground tend again- is-grvin ferthe rWmorial altar .the .

Rev J. .E. Mann and the exercises of Memorial Day 1875 came to a close.
