' The I'rovldeuco Journal, alluding to Hie dull state of trade and manufactures, says the one word lobe spoken, nnd 'to be' listened to now, is economy Indi vidual, family, municipal and national economy." Tills scrap of personal nnd political econo my is going the rounds of the newspaper press. We gladly give it a turn on our (ii.om:. It suggests, In a nutshell, the key note for the times in which we find our ehes now, incu'ry part of our land. 5Iost people are evidently living up to, and a 'oral ninny beyond, their Income. A mania rages lo get rich, or seem licit, not in Hie old-fashioned way by slow nnd pa tient getting -but in short metre, by man. .e'ciiicnt. lings, and too often by dow nright dishonesty. The really rich are extravagant, ;ind that is well enougb, for they spend their own money, and put It In the pockets of I he (ruder and laborer, wheie it does in linllely moie good (ban when locked up in their burglar-proof vaults. Let them spend, judiciously, they should, but spend any w.ij. The money, well scatleied, will hecr many n home of penury and want. No body can complain that they live inline Ii iiisim and fare sumptuously eveiy day. It is lliclr concern, not ours. If they get the gout or dyspepsia, that is thelrV, too.

The leason is simple. Tin y spend faster than they eiun. They I ic on gieat expectations, They arc always unthoiightfiil, often imbued with a larger amount of prldo than true honoror le d courage. Poverty, in fact, Is disarmed of hull' its terrors by daring to act It out in e uel'til expenditures. Keonoiny may pinch occasionally, but, to n sensitive, right thinking peison, it Is better than bank ruptcy i liettcr than to explode and pay tweuly-lho cents on (he dollar. To all who are In debt, towns, villages, state, nation, or Individuals, our advice I lo eeononile. Let us get back to (ho good old ways of prurience, nnd good ills cielion In our pecuniary matters. Let us met on to hard pan. Cut down the sala ries curtail expenses get liefojovou spend and pay as you go, If you want the angels lo fan your head to rest, as you seek icposo from Hie cares, or n solace for the Ills of life.

The observances of "Decoration Hay'' In liutlaiid on Friday weic fittingly nnd strikingly appropriate. Of tho occasion nnd Its many linpresshu features vo have already spoken. The day has nlready be come hlstoile In the life of tho country 113 It has been publicly proclaimed a national holiday. Not however, in the sense of celebration or of a joyful event, but In a commemoration i n day of mourning for lost ones and otrcllectlons upon their deeds as soldiers nnd their virtues as friends and citizens. In no better manner can we offer our (lllmtes of nffcellon for these fal len soldiers w idle we gather nbout their griucs than In the beautiful language, of llowcrs. I.mcly ulikc In form and in the presence that It sheds, tho llower la at once npproprlale for the ceremony, nnd ciiibodieRniaiiy of the requisite virtues of a true offering of hue. The design that emanated fioni n few old soldiers to com memorate the deeds of their tallcn comrades In this manner Is one of great credit and should be followed by their sons and pos terity ns years pass and neneratlons are newly born. The services obsened In Hutlaiid under lhemspicc.sof Post Roberts U. A. It. In honor of Hie occasion wcte probably of a higher order nnd more Interesting In Its diameter than that of any piovlotis obser vance of the kind here. The morning opened dear and blight, Hie sun shedding forth a filming warmth while n delightful breeze was felt that lasted throughout the day. Our village was Isiteri by people from adjoining towns, while our own citi zens, with a dueregard for the day, gave up the usual employments and business of other days and attended the decoration sen Ices in goodly numbers. Their nubile spirit was aKo shown in Hie many ll.isjs that streamed from the doois and windows hi every street, giving the town an old-time waillke and patiiotlc appearance. The Grand Army boys assembled In the afternoon at their hall, and at two o'clock a profession was foimed by them in front of Umuii: block witli Marshall ,1. II. doubling and Assistant 5Iarslial S. II. Kelly and the Cambria, band nt their head. Tills matched to the Town Hall to Hie stilling music of Hin band wheiu was soon assembled a largo audience to listen to the sen ices. After the playing of the national air, "The Ited, White and llluo" by Hie Cambria band, prayer was offered by He v. .1. Gibson Johnson of liutlaitil. 5Iarshal doubling then introduced to the Po-t, and Hie ladles nud gentlemen In at tendance, Comrade Albeit Clarke of St. Al bans, the orator of the day, whose addles we give tcrhatim. Jin. ei..vniii;'s OIIATION. We are a square headed people and not given to ccroumny. The block of iiationnl character quarried from I'iyniouth was hewn fur use nud not for ornament, We believe, with a celebrated French philoso pher, llint " the more 1'iee a people are tlio fewer ceieinonies, tliu fewer ostentatious titlc, the fewer deiiionstralions of annllii latioa In Hie presence of a superior, they possess." Wu have been taught that hi proportion to the barbarism of countries or the w eakness of courts, processions, prece dence, distinctions of rank, forms of ad dress and imposing displays arc most in vogue. Our rulers, who arc called ser vants of the people, have never deemed it necessary, like the emperors ami mandarins of China, to formally inaugurate the seed thuo by n demonstration with tho plow. We know Hint the Egyptians prospered and the Greeks grew great, but unlike them we have not celebrated feasts to Isis nnd Osiris nor paid our homage to Ceres or Proserpine. Wc believe that Home's great day was when Ciesar was culled plain Ca;s.ir and before Constantino was spoken of ns " his imperial majesty." Wo believe In courte sy, but unlike the ambassadors of Charles the First when tredting with the cardinal de Iticlielicu for the hand of Henrietta of France, wo do not push nn important mat ter to the point of defeat by demanding two or three steps more toward a door. Fitz (ireene Ilnlleck's Yankee would een " Rliake linnils wttli a kin; upon Ills throne .uu inniK u Kinuucss io iuh majesty. So self-respecting is every mnn that more than one sturdy citizen soldier lias been tied up by Ills tliumtis lor tailing to salute Ills su perior officer. Fvcn the lites of religion in many other countries so imposing have hero been stripped to the baro outlines of simplicity. Is it not strange, then, that such a people, stern as Puritans and practical even in tho realms of fancy, should have fallen into the beautiful custom th.it wu observe to-day ? When on almost any occasion, it is hard to induce the unorganized multitude to join ill n procession, they choosing rather to follow on tho sidewalks, Is it not strange that for Ibis one day in Hie year they should lay aside their sovereign independence and march reverently to unauthorized com mands? What Is it that to-day can make the iron visage of tho soldier which has faced tho belching of the cannon and the tlnmo of struggling lines, relax like (he mobile muscles of u child? What tenderness touches the heart of him who has " looked on armies with a leaders eye " and makes him follow witli the men lie led? What inagie lias thrown away the heavy arms and burdened these re-assembled ranks with only the beautiful nnd delicate adornments of the spring? The dead whom we honor sleep their last sleep. JNo pomp can nil their eyes, no music and no words can touch their hearts, no sound can awake them to glory again. We do indeed, some times fancy that they look upon us from the " armies of the blest," but as we recount their services anil their sacrifices wo only loo sadly reallzo how littlo is tho most wo can uo tor tliem, ana nre obliged to turn and confess that our own poor lives lire all that can receive the benefit of this Memo rial Day. I have heard it said that this observance must soon pass away, that it can evolve nothing new, and Hint the peoplu will tiro of it as they oo ol all monotony, llils may be, but not yet. He who thinks that emo tions of gratitudu are so soon spent little knows how dependent tins people telt when tliu soldiers stood between them and their enemies as n wall of Are. Ho who Imagines Hint tho giiel ol yesterday will to-morrow pass nwny, has never looked up to llie height nor penetrated to tho depth of that s cnlieial altar, reared in ovcry thirtieth house throughout tho land. Uo who thinks Hint men will tiro of bearing llowers to their comrades graves, who witli those comrades have borne the privations of the caino. tho hardships of tho march and the dangers of ino Held, Utile realizes now deep nnd strong nnd true becomes tho friendship which common dnmrcrs riiun into love. Tho dn'v for passing by tbeso honored graves has not yet come, lor as .Mrs, tJorr so sadly sings: "81111 do tlin lilnrk.lfilieil inrtMierH mini, nml irn Still do lono nlves by dreary henrtli stones Ntllt does u nation lu her prlilo ntnl woj For her dead sons a mournful igll keep." This year as much as lust, and equal to the years before, do tliu peoplo come down from tho hilt sides nud gather from tho plains. You have seen tho littlo family groups, standing, in respectful silence just uiuui jrum inu graves oi inuir lovcu ones, looking on with tenrful interest and swelling hearts wlillo tho hands of surviving com rades bedecked tho turf. You have looked into (ho rcllcctlvc; eyes of tho fathers and tho mothers and re-read tho story of their aflUction. You liavo seen the widows and the orphans, changed, it may be, with tho (light of time, but sad nnd reverent in tho presence nf Hint returning memory which TJTJ3 JttTLANJ) DAILY GLOBE, SATURDAY MOKNING, MAY tells how all they loved was rlked nnd lot. Yotl have seen the maimed and crippled soldiers, relics of their onco whole and hopeful lives, standing herons broken links between the living and the dead and drop ping from their slnglo hands tho wreaths of glory which you thought theyjnlght well wear themselves. And as you have seen all this, have you not loved your country better than before? Have you not thought how dear must bo the land Hint cot so much ? Hnvo you not highly resell ed lo be tho willing instruments of Providence to "temper tho winds to the shorn Iambs," and to re-supply and supplement the strength of iIiimo who upheld the llag until they cannot How uphold thenielvc.? Comrades, this day for you Is gteal Willi memories that are not allngelher sad. It withdraws you from the single-handed toil of private life nnd takes von back to scenes of hardship but of gloiy. It Inspires you, once moie with objects infinitely above yourselves. As you again touch elbows in the ratil.s anil inarch Willi tlm. old steady tramp which time cimiot disturb, how like a tide the vanished years come h ick and how they dwaif the present with the gran deur of their deeds. The scenes of camp and inarch me here, or rather vou ale there. I he haunts ol childhood me not more viid than the picket posts you held. You can thread the winding paths of Vir ginia forests or navigate Hie bayous of Louisiana as easily as you wend your wav through these Inmiliar sticcts. on think tli.it you could go at midnight to the liivoit- acks, where danger brooded o'er vott, or to tne camps wnere liiouiougn li.iiil was gay. llow sounds the reveille upon your waken ing oars. How the good old bugle echoes all the calls of camp. How rise before vcill the beauteous lines nF dnss-M.lr.nli nml liow Hie rattling drum corp roll out the airs you thought yntt had lorgotten. The only tilings you cannot realize aie the pri vations yoifcnriuicd. Thev may have left their marks upon you, but their twinging torments nie like a half ful gotten dieani. You can pee Hie very swamp where you lay soaked at night, but you cannot teel the rain drops as they pattered on your cheek. You can think ol empty haversacks nve, and recall starvation hi the pi icon pen. but somehow the pangs of hunger do not re turn. In the glory of achievement these thing-, pass away. Ah when Phil Kearney In the heat of battle grasiied at his lit Idle-reln with Hie sleeve that hail been emptied years be foie, so me we nil pioue to forget, in light iiig'our battles o'er, the hardships we en dured and the disabilities) that we incurred. He it so. Hut the great c cuts which made the conflict war stand out in bold telief ; the blows that wc gave and took we give and lake again. Homebody listening tome now iccalls Hull Hun; another, Fair Oaksi another dashes through the bloody Warwick Cieek; others leap the death gulch at Alttictam; scores stouu tliu heights at Fiedrlcksburgh and more meet death nud conquer scandal down at Hatou Honge ; numbers llieie are who, with "Old .loe Hooker." penetrate above tho clouds and from Hie crimsoned crest of Lookout .Mountain look down on all their former li es as little in comparison with one great deed, and who but thinks of Gettysburg, wlieie treason's highest tide dashed up against your front, nnd surged and broke, and ebbed away ! Hut not in n general view not ns the civilian fees these gieat events does the soldier see them, even nt this safe lime and distance, lie sees them only In part and of that part was he, Let us go with him through one scene. Do not imagine that he Is anything but lle.-li and blood. When he sees cannon placed in line and long divis ions massing here and there, he knows that there is work ahead, of which he may not live lo tell. What thoughts of home nnd kindred crowd his wind. In that dread silence which precedes the sttife; what confidential messages tent-mates and f I lends exchange j what silent prayers aie said, even by those who never prayed before, you know as well ns I can tell. All your love of life and all your sense of civilization ries in protest against the inhuman bar barism that is impending. You think of the foe, not with hatred but as human be ings, aye, and ns brothers, and you almost w onder why the invisible spirit of battle which you iancy to bo hovering above both armies you wonder why the all-mcrciful God whom you have been taught from in fancy to look to us a loving father will not touch the hearts of Ilui combatants nnd lead them then and there to tho consummation of an honorable peace. You watch the llags at corps headquarters and every move ment seems a signal. You imagine that every cornier who gallops to the lines con veys the nll-moineiitous order. 1 f the shots thicke.i on the skirmish line, you hold your breath. Call you these the musings of a coward? There is not one soldier in a hundred who has not felt them more vividly than I can tell. And yet, these same soidicis, paled to the lips, silent, stern, could not be moved from their posts by anything but orders, and when the fierce conllicl comes you see them, self-controlled, the biavest in the light. Did you ever lead hi a news paper that the army was hi excellent con: dltion and the men weio spoiling for a light? These same nlen were the first whom the prospect of a light would spoil. Did you ever hear a soldier say that when once fairly in he had no fear? Such sol diers have been known lobe the first to get unfairly out. Paradoxical ns it may sound, there is no bravery without fear, and Ibis same typical, true soldler.whoni we com menced with in the light, filled with terror, thoughtful, prayerful, sad, is the one of whom history wiiles the greatest deeds and of whom eloquence and poetry never tire to tell. Thcpicparatiousaieall made. The army waits. Horses, unconscious of the general awe, pluck clover in the Held. The little brook that slakes the soldiers' battle thirst bubbles as sweetly ns If visited by peaceful kino. Tho tall trees wave as gently as though a picnic were gathered in their shade. The birds lloat through the air in blissful ignorance that soon the swifter winged messengers of death will come. The few, white, llceey clouds above give no portent of a gathering storm, and the sun the same blight sun which shines upon your dear old home tells of no hurri cane that man cannot control. And yet, you lie upon the ground nnd wait, ami watch, but wait not long. A whllu puff, u sharp Hash, aloud crash, a blowing through tho air, and In an Instant w hat n Cliango ! Nil hurricane has come, but the storm of battle has, and all along yon bristling ridgo you seo men spring like demons through the smoke to servo tho fast ills charging guns. F.xploslons fill Iho air. The air grows wild. The whir of iron fragments founds like the hum of stones fiom many slings. Trees crash and shed their limbs, rocks smoke and glance like Hint, and men are mown mid the earth is plowed In this harvest of death and seed time of souls. Why don't our cannon of. tcner reply? Why stand our olllcers as if overawed ? AVhy do three miles of men llu sllll nnd let three hundred shells a minute make havoc in their tilplo ranks? There's silence by and liyj a bicezo wafts up the sulphurous smokc.andO, look there! Tho long gray lines come on witli proud elastic step. The evenness of ranks, tho wave of banners, tho tllash of sabres and the sheen of arms make up a spectacle as beautiful as ever was beheld. Hut It can not last. It cainu to do destruction and It shall bo destroyed. A sharp voice at tho nearest battery commands lo 111 u 1 and swifter than contagion bursts the pent-up thunder all along our line. Tho liven rauks send back their wrath, and death slings through the murky air. The supremo time has come. Tho long bluo lines in Ise, and In the light of cannon Hash you seo their leveled .steel. Flamo leaps to (lame, nml ,vollles melt Into a i bailing roar. It is tho crater of our Nation s w oe. 5len leap to 1111 It, nnd It brims w 1th blood it spatters ashes far away to many u daikened home. Hut thank the Lord, our men weio tine, Tho old Hag floats lis tattered folds in tri umph over the scene, and tho rcdwlzuid of tho strife stalks gloomily away. Hut heio and there ho strikes again. lo wlicro tho Cllantoi) tho mountnln stands, Ills blood-red Ircsscs deepening In tho sun, With death-bliot (flowing la Ids llcry hands; And cyo Hint scorelios all It glares uiion, Restless It rolls, now llxod nnd now anon, Washes afar, whllo nt Ids Iron leet Destrucllon cowers to innrk what deeds oro done," Comrades, destruction covers now no moie. A grateful nation marks tho deeds lhedcaroldarmy;fnded when lis work wns done.- This lemnnnt here, these silent graves, the memories Hint we glorify nie all that link Hie rising generation wl'lh tho realities of which Ihey lead. These lnc menloes, like Hie slant ravs of the setting siin.-nlready have begun lo glimmer. The Grand Army of the Hepublle can never bo lecriilled save from n number which Is yen iy growing less, but as the circle nar rows toward the focal point, the warmer Will grow the atmosphere of gratitude and love. 5Ioro than a mtaitcrof a century ngo n celebration In Ibis town drew rrom the regions far and near a small band of tho veterans of 1770. 5Iost of tliem met ns strangers, but they felt a kinship which made them more than friends. Tho popu. luce gathered to behold them with a curi osity almost ns great as If they vveie llsen from Hie dead. A distinguished orator and statesman toasted them as "the people's honored guests, w ho comeherc, some on one leg, some on two, but nil on their last legs, God bless tliem I" Victor Hugo, 1 think it wa, who said that when he entered the Hotel des Invalidcsandllooked upon those totteiing vetcransof the Old Guard, he felt that lie was more lu the presence of France than when he sat In the National Assem bly. Comrades, I judge by history nnd I know I do not read our people wrong when I say that this little badge.madc fiom cannon which perhaps you helped to cap ture, will by nnd by entitle vou (o honor which none will bo too high to )iay. It js im ihthiiuc syniuoi, indicative ut caste ami transmissible from sire to son ; but it is rather like Hie star of the Legion of Honor or the Iron Cross of Germany, which testi fy of deeds.nnd when the wearer dies, go to the Hmpcror or hang hi proud remembrance on the homestead w all. Long live the vet erans of (he O. A. H. I Green bo the memories of our comrades mustered out ! Forever thrive and greater grow the land which calls no man n slave nud owns no sovereign but God! Hut appropriate ns Is the oWrvanco of lo-day, ihilllingns nre its recollections and deserved as aie its encomiums, theie Is yet a belter way In which to honor the living and to gloilfv the dead. It is but due to them Hint their work shall be completed. The aibilrament of war did not pretend to settle all that It decided, nor was the ex penilituie of blood and treasme the only incidental or lesultunt evil. It Is lamentable that a poition of the South is not yet composed j It is humiliat ing that sectional animosities still exist ; It Is outrageous that any right of eitizensliip should be denied or circumvented to nnv one beneath or llag; It is contemptible be-I uiiii expression uiai Homes oi political cormorants should descit their native seas nnd swarm down theie to fatten on Hie new bom public life. All these tilings de lay the consummation of that lastiiigjionor able peace for which our heroes died. Who bates the South ? Do you, my com rades ? No. I have seen you clasp hands with her gallant sons who yielded to you In tho strife. Who hates the North? Not they wlio tested your highest qualitlc-. nud found you too brave to be unkind. O, let the old, old venom pass away. Laugh down your fossil nuisteis of llie lash, fair South! Call home your thieves, gieat Noilh ! He jie-t, be generous, he one, and when this day shall fully come, then will the dead be houoied as they should and the laiuel that we bring no more be twined witli rue. 1 plead for one tiling moie. Hefoie Hie war theie was more honesty than now. -Men lived within their means. Ollleials felt the sacredness of trust. Contracts, whether made with a citizen or with Hie public, weio adhered to. "Stiikcs" and ""lulls," If not unknown, weio not yet dignified by politics nor justified by law. Frio laid not then thiottled Capital nor purchased Viituo witli his theft. Tam many had not scalped his captive city nor fattened on heijblood. Credit 5Iobiller had not then stalked across tho continent nor pulled down greatness with his sinuous tail. Our own peculiar Chancery Gyro scope had scarcely begun to revolve its wheels within a w heel. Hut Hie war, like all wars, brought on an era of speculation. Now nnd then a commission was purchas ed with w hiskey and cigars. Occasionally a quhtteriiiaster "saved Ids wages." King Shoddy Hashed his diamonds and giddy youth went mad, Inllalioii, luxury and greed drove on with wild intoxica tion, A false light glared on every thing. Truth paled her ineffectual rays. lieaction was not ' dreampt of, and accountability was ignored, or cir cumvented and postponed. 'It was a braz en age. The press was subsidized and public men retained, Tho livery of plundcic'ri es tates, the robes of misplaced eonlldence, the ermine of llie tricked and thwarted law were donned and Haunted ns the garb and glory of great enterprise and thri it. 5Icn went down on their knees nnd fawned and licked the dust. The tyranny of power re pressed all honest thought. If any voice came from the wilderness and cried "Woe, woe," a thousand votaries laughed It into silence. If any Cicero held Catalino and Verres up to scorn, in tliu corrupted cur lents of lids atmosphere his eloquence wns blown away. It was an iron age. A free, people weio enslaved and knew it not. 1 paint the plcturo ns of the past. Would that It were! Think you that this was what our soldiers fought for? In that gieat moment when they conquered pru duence, put aside self-seeking nnd boro their young lives lo the very altar, think you that if foreknowledge had been given them of the greed that was to follow they would have thought the prize was worth tho cost? In those cold days when mil forms grew thin and the Government had nono to spare; when wives and children cried at homo and the paymaster came not near; when food was doled out by an ene my and tho prison opened not Its doors, would It have added to the ardor of their patriotism to see the Forty-second Congress steal away witli double stoic? When Ihey struggled for four long years rather than yield a single State to slavery ; nay, when our bravo old Second would have fought till this tlmo to hold their cap tured rille-pit at Spoltsylvmiia, would they have thought that land was worth so much could they have seen their western heritage bestowed on companies and teen them pur chase with it tho national honor which ti en son could not destroy ? . These abuses would have driven u more jealous people to the verge of revolution. 1 do not stand heio to speak against union of effort nor the con centration of capital ; they develop our ('sources, they make us great; but I plead for more fidelity to public nnd pri vate trust and would thiow off the iron of monopoly wherever It spi cads beyond its grade. We need that "frequent recurrence to fundamental principles of which the Constitution of Vermont so quaintly but so truly speaks; wo need to guard against that rapacity which, as 5lontesquieu says, "ever grows witli prosperity, but ever en dangers tho State ; wo need that "eter nal vigilance" which Jefferson says "is tho price of liberty." In this country, wheieevery man Is sovereign, responsibility is on us all. We cannot generalize it, we cannot put it afar off that Is tho babbling coward s part. Here, now, with whatso ever w rong wo meet It Is our part to grap ple. Do you laugh at him who does It? I tell you that ho shall conquer, "There shall bo a handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains ; tho fruit thereof shall shako like Lebanon." O, for a sterner public virtue ! King Hlchard did not need a horso more than the country now needs men. When our servants are entrusted with our property, or when wo send them to tho cnpitol, wo want to feel that they mo pickets, guarding us from harm. They shall not biiytind sell, they shall not sleep, they shall not run away, they shall not absorb their trust, they shall not turn their arms against their country. This Is tho lesson that heroic sacrifices seem to teach to-day. Itring forth your llowers, then, brnvu men ; nnd when you leave them on thosograves and turn once more from past to present life, let nil the world bear wit ness that you honor what you fought for, and what your brothel's died for you will speak for, vote for and defend. Tho oration was n decided success and so pronounced by all in attendance. It was original lu conception and de livered In nn earnest manner and with finished eloquence. Wo are confident It will compare very favorably with any like effort among the many made tliioughoitt tho State on yesterday. The Invocation of the Divine HIcssIng was made by Key. 12. 51. llaynes, chaplain of the 101b Vermont llegtment during tho war, and tho mulicnce dispersed to join lu the procession which foimed for tho decora tion. First came the Cambria Hand, fol lowed by the members of Post Hoberls, nil with tho insignia of their former duties buckled nroiindlhein, nflcr whlcli came the Floral Carriage. Tills was a magnificent affair and consisted of a large carryall in which rose n pyramid of beauteous llowers, and mound It were arranged in a charming manner, evergreens and blossoms of every kind, making a picture of rare and pleasing loveliness to the beholder. Hehhid this Horal equipage were the carriages contain ing the clergy, members of the in ess, dis abled soldiers and Invited guests, nnd fol lowed by n long line of our citizens ,( Hielr carriages who Joined In the procession throughout its route. The West slreet Cemetery was first visited for the beautiful purposo of decoration, nnd the comrades lu solemn Hie and with reverential healing, visited each soldier's grave therein nnd strewed It with How ers. The band chanted lis icqulem and the line of march vvasagain taken up. The Cntholic Cemetery was next visited and decorated In like manner, while the band played that sweet Scotch air, " Itobin Adair," singularly nppro piialo. I2vcrgrcen Cemetery nt Centre Hut land was then visited and there were found numerous citizens in waiting for Hie pro cession, making u large concourse of people. Tills is a beautiful spot. The enchantment of the situation which is one of the lov cliost ever selected for a cemetery, Hie occasion which called forth so large iwiiunbcr of people nnd tho rites performed, could not but All the hearts of all witli a powerful and touching sense of peace and lolgnation. The ritualistic service of the Grand Army was here lead by the Decoration Commit tee as Ihey made their lloral offeilngs, and prayer was made by Key. S. W. Field, after which Chaplain I Iavnks delivered a few brief rental ks saying, in the opening, that the children of these ex-soldiers niu-t bear in mind the fact that they, ere long, w ill be expected to do the work of keeping green the memory of our fallen soldiers ns their fathers were doing to-day. After listening to the splendid oration delivered by Com rade Clarke, which was worthy of the man and of the occasion, lie felt but little like saying anything al tins time were lie not anxious to testify ids high regard for fallen comrades. He consideied the occasion one of gieat interest as a national festival nnd n splendid memorial, grand, solemn and In spiring. Grand in the C'luNtinn sentiment that runs throughout the occasion, solemn in the deptli of woe .and mourning nnd sympathy for these lost ones, and inspiring m the thrill of patriotic devotion which is felt through the land to their memories. Ileie and all about us we tread In sacred precincts. Thc.-o men nre sleeping the sleep of death and yet we feel that they nie living, walking and acting in the history of their comrades. There is something In the cause for which they laid down their lives that is gloiifying to all who engaged in it, and the speaker believed that those whodied In tho lalo struggle deserved to have their names written in the scroll of martyrs. When the clarion sounded Its call to war these men girded on their armor and de fended our nltais with their lives. They came from our mountains Hie fanner and the mechanic, tho lawyer and his clerk from every employment where hands were occupied, there was sent an offering of life for sacrifice. In Konian hls tory we read of a yawning gulf which threatened destruction to the city and re fused to close up until a young man came and offered himself as a sacrifice for the lives of others. Ho plunged Into the gulf and the city was saved. This courage was exemplified by those who went forth and lliicw themselves where gulfs yawned on every side, but they were not dismayed. They testified their devotion to their coun try in a manner which can find no paralell in Koniish history. Purified public senti ment holds these martyrs In undying grati tude. Their living comrades the speaker considered a special priesthood asset apait for this service as no other men and distin guished above other men by this voluntary offering hi tho country's need. IWe have seen no braver heroes than they. It was they who gave freedom to a race of people not realized by themselves. We cannot honor them too much, wc who are blessed by just laws and who reap tho benefits of their great sacrifices. How beautifully do we render our regard for these fallen com rades to-day ! Taking from our mother eaith our fairest beauties to cover Hie ground under which they nie i est Ing, we give them u token of our appreciation, llerethcro is no distinction made. No uniform is hero to give the rank of the fal len soldier. The general and the private ure raised to equal rank. Tho shroud of the dead private, in the opinion of the speaker, outshines the eagle of the Colonel, living. When all have been gathered to dust and death has crown ed the prostrate ranks of these former sol diers, then will there lie another genera tion lo whom will descend the benclltfcthat wo enjoy and the privilege of honoring these memories, until tho last roll Is called and the nngels shall sound the last trumpet, When we think of all that has been dono by these palsied arms that lie heio beneath theso decorations, a feeling of Christian love goes out to nil of tho brotherhood that God will take them In his arms and bless them every one. This ended tho decoration services here, The speech of Chaplain Haynes was soul stirring In tono and hi Its effect upon all who heard It, and wns a lilting dose to the observances of the day. A dctatchment from the Post was sent to the cemetery nt West Kulland with llowers to decorate the the graves theie in appropriate style. Taken all in all "Decoration Day" in Hutlnnd was honored with completeness throughout. Decoration Day in Vermont nml JZUtm'lioro. AT WOODSTOCK. Woodstock, 5Iay !iO. Decoration day passed off quietly.
