UECOKAT ION DAY.
r ! tfcrrlccs at the Cemetery Or Ion
S Ac.
A largv number of our citizens on
yesterday ."afternoon aaaombled at tbe
National Cemetery t do honor to "onr
fallen brares," and to decorate the
graves of the Nation's Dead, who sleep
their last sleep ia that beautiful and
quiet spot.
The procession waa composed of the
HaDover Guards, CapL Alabsoo, and
the Cape Fear Guards, CapL Nash, and
several civil societies. They made a
very fine appearance.
After the assemblage had been called
to order by the Chief Marshal the
exercises were commenced by the Choir
singing the dirge "Rest, Soldier, Rest,"
the Chaplain Rer. C. tismpeoa then
offered up an eloquent prayer. Tho
! Cboir sang "We Deck the Graves Alike
i To-day." After which Gen. S. U. Mao
! niog. Master of Ceremonies, in a few
' appropriate remarks, introduced Hon.
wuo delivered the following address:
o- - - - . j ,
and Frllo'O-Citizrnt:
They who are buried in this Na
tional Cemetery came from many, and
i
,s i widely separated homes. rk)me were
! born near tbe rock-bound coast of ew
j Kngland, some in the Talleys of the
Mohawk and the Hudson New Jeney
j and Pennsylvania hare their ion here,
i and mauy are from the yast region
t wateretl by the Mississippi and its trib
; utHrie-. There are others reared in
ihee !duthern States. Doubtless the
j places left by many of them have been
tilled and their memories have half fa-
''Cll aay r they aro wholly forgotten,
i Ioubtlcs there are others who will be
' remembered witn londnem and regret
, during the existence of their survivors
! i'erl.api in these graves more than one
lite lien buried. Some of these tomb
; .-.tours tell tho names of those whose
; f.-icuds know of the places of their in
i lernicp.t. Others mark nameless tombs
f and rogUter the dwelling laces of the
utircmembered dead. It may be that
in k tne far distant home, some mother
or wife has not ceased to hope for tne
, rt-turu of son or husband, of whom the
only record is, he went to the war
and was never again heard of ; and
j Hoe remains are here. They shared
the common heritage of humanity
i earth with it shadow and sunshine; air
i and light and flowers and music; the
i oc
ciety of aciiuaintanees, friendship and
love wi re sweet to them. Their s too
.::-ls, '' the natural shrinking from the un-l.-
va' i li""''u, which, whilfl the w-'J. ?
,.,., r. i kJ.-IiUs evr ni'- tMVMiaf men dread
i llie i"g of their inevitable destiny,
i . ., a:.d cvtr wi .1, until death shall be swal-
hmt-d up in victory. Here on a soil
I umrvr lo the sun thau tbe land ot their
1 birth, aiuoug strangers, "they have
' pitelted in Heaven's smile their camp
I of death." Widely apart as were the
j places of their nativities, they have
icomc to a' common fate aud resting
j place, because they perished in a com
j liioii cause. The oUth of May has been
j ma !e a national holiday, aud on this
' bright aud sunny day of closing spring,
j crowds have gathered in every National
; C'vint tcry witb the same purpose as our
OS". I.
I I' poti the recent coffin ofthe great
j Hungarian statesman was placed a
! wreath with this inscription, 'perish
iw' tlowi-rs to imperishable worth."
1 1 is a common and beautiful custom
i,i decorate tha remains and final homes
..f thosrt we love with flowers. "Sweet
i ibe sweet," said the Queen, when she
g , - the last offering to sslf-murdered
'p'.ifii. Dur fondness for a little
)-.ii;.i-u life. With bitter tears and
pa sionatc sorrow we lay our beloved ia
tl.- grave. For a while we bring flower-
.hat perish, types of a loveas per-
trior g to their resting place. But
r'w - nave been buried by a nation's care
I. .r - i
-y h ae earned a nation gratitude.

is worthr of censure who, believing
what he had learned in childhood, fol-

are wiser than our generation, nor
would it be well that we should b;. As
generous a devotion inspired the souls
of those who fought under one fla as
of those who followed the fortunes of
the other. Each appealed wiih the

assert that the cau?e they fought for

for them that the monu-iient tliey won

The Fayetteville Western Kaiiroad
has gaiued the suit instituted for the
recovery of 47o bonds of $1.0o0each,
held by L. P. Bayne ol New York. The
Company contends that the mortgage
bonds are fraudulent and the Supreme
Court of New Yorkat its General Term
aflirmed the judgment of the lower
court iu favor of tire Company. An
appeal lies for the Defendant to the
Court of Appeals aud thence the Su
preme Court of the United States ; but
if the appeals are -taken it is thought
the decision will be the same as it has
been in the lower courts. If the Com
pany shall final lv succeed in the suit, it
will be enabled to make the contem
plated extension of their road to Greens
boro. Major McKea, who has con
ducted the suit for the Company, de
serves great cammendation for the
ability and iudustry he hrs shown in
its management.
