TUB ?BA VIM OF O UK FALLEN HB* HOBS* "That man lires greatly, WhiU'er bis fate or fame, who greatly dies." Youno. Lilt Saturday wa? chosen by the fair ones of our towo, to decorate the graves of oar departed heroes, and at DO period sinco tho war, has the painful pleasure beco engaged io with the same eatha iasm. We say pleasure, for it affords oar oppressed sod bereaved pcoplo a great, though melancholy pleasure, to show that these brave heroes of a noble causo still live-live in the memory, the afiectioos aod gratitude of those who survive them. Their names are on the roll ot fame, aod we aro the custo? dians of the sacred dust locked up in the graYo. The crowd of ladies present, trebled tho number On any previous ocoasion. The ceremonies wore few, solemn and impressive. Kev. DONALD MCQUEEN, of the Presbyterian Churoh, offered* an earnest prayer, and then the ladies, in quiet,solemn order, covered tho graves with garlands, wreaths, bouquets and evergreens-all was hushed, and only now and theo a smothered sigh or groan washeard, as a father or mother drop? ped a tear oo tho grave of the departed loved ODO. "Can tba t man be dead Wboie iplritual influeneo ia upon his kind? Ile lives in glory ; and bis speaking duet liai more of life than half its broatbing moulds." When we saw the graves all covered with their wealth ot flowers, and their sweet perfumes reached us, wo thought of the virtues of tho dead, which shed a rioher fragrauce, and shown with a more captivating beauty. The moment was S holy une, no passion swelled our breasts, and no revengeful feelings intruded on the beautiful ceremonies of the hour-memory called up the wait? ings of David fdr his beloved Jonathan. "Hoir ure tho mighty fallon in tba midst of the battle ! 0 Jonathan, thoa wast slain in thine own moun i aim Pleasant hutt thou been to me? llow ar? tbe mighty fallon, And the weapons of war perished I S&~ Tho weather still continues dry and intensely hot. Farms an i gardens are suffering greatly in this section. 0?" We refer 'our readers to thc advertisement of J. S. Hughson in this issuo. He has on hand a large and fresh stock of fain i N and fancy gro? ceries, which he offers ou reasonable terms. KaT" Our attention hus becu attracted by a beautiful specimen in thc buggy Hoe, built at the work shop of our en? terprising townsman, Jackson Moses, Esq. It is a light coal box buggy of most beautiful workmanship. It is worth looking at. Go and seo it. With two such workmen as Mr. W. J. Anderson and Mr. J. T. Bryant, Mr. Moses' shop produces the ornamental as well as tho useful. Vt PAYS TO INSURE. Wo leam that tho "Richmond Bank? ing and Insurance Company," of Rich mond, Va., has through its agent here, Mr. ANTHONY WHITE, promptly settled thc claims of Messrs. A. J. MOSES and JULIUS SCHWERIN, against it, for dam ages sustained by them in the late fire. In one of these iustanoes the company has boen especially liberal, allowing compensation for an estimated loss from theft in the removal of the goods, al* though most insurance policies expressif/ stipulate that tho Company shall not bc held liable for Mich loss. GEN. H. IC. COLSTON. We publish in this days paper, the Memorial Address of Gen. R. E. Colston, formerly of the Virginia Institute, deli? vered on the 10th instant, that being memorial day at Wilmington. Let all read it. It ?a eloquent, noble and lofty io sentiment, illustrating the tenacity with which the love and affection of thc living still cling to the sleeping dust of our fallen Heroes. Wo aro pleased to soe in the Sumter Marble Yard somo specimens of work which wo consider os neat as can be gotten \up in the ?- tate or else? where. They are very handsomely de signed and tastefully executed. Those debiting work in his line would do well to call and seo friend SMITH, the proprietor aod principal workman, who is always ready with chisel aod mallet in hand, to execute work upon short notico of any design which might be desired. *Qr Our town was visited on Friday tho 20th inst, by two distinguished gentlemen, Hon. lt. It. BRIDGES, presi? dent of the WU. Col. and Aug Rail Road, who strived here in his pri? vate ear, accompanied by his friend ant gaost, tho Hon. W. JONES of Fayettvilh Tennessee The object of Mr. BRIDOES visit was to inaugurate immediately thc building of the road to Columbia, aod if his p?aos are oar ri ed out tho road to that point will be oompletod by the 1st December nwt.

C., last week, at $1.60 per bushol. 6&~ An anonymous letter writer says there is a mystery about tho effect of tho weather on piety. Sabbath heat seems hotter, Sabbath cold colder, and Sabbath rain wetter, than that of any other day ; for the same measure of heat, or cold, or raiut on a week day, will not keep a man from his vsual business. t&" A New York exchange says : ''Haifa dozen negroes wero arrested in this city for illegal voting on Tuesday Some of those who attempted to vote had not been in the city a month." DEJIOl'UATIC VICTORY. NEW YORK., Muy 23. The Albany Argus of this morning makes the Democratic majority in tho State of New York on the Judicial ticket 88,000. Gold 18H@114 io New York, Cotton 22i in New York. - In marrying u young white girl to a mulatto in the presence of a number of the dignitaries of a Western town, Justice Garrett said: '-In the name ol the Great Jehovah, tho Continental Congress ai d thc Fifteenth Amendment, I pronounce you husband aud wife." A negro was caught iu a man's gar? den the other ui.ht, io close proximity to a Sot of flue cabbage. When in terra gated as to what ht, was doing, ho rc plied : ''Good Lord ! dis nigger eau't go no whur to pray, withot boin' troubled by sompin." SinPLU NATURE. Harper's Hazarvi?reuiing of thc effect of simplicity in the midst of elaborate and expensive artifice, says : "Let a youngwoman with uo hair but her own and that simply dressed, enter u room filled with those whose heads aro elab? orately built up with u profusion ol purchased l?elas, and sec who will bc mose admired. It is a great advantage for a woman, iu these days of artifice, to remaiu herself, aud thus bc unlike every one else. A simple dress, white or black, will produce thc greatest ef? fect wbcu surrounded by tho most gor? geous costumes. These serve, ns it were, AS frames for thc former, and women are j ft en forced to. confess that they have draped themselves magnificently, ut an immense expense, for uo other purpose .han to heighten by contrast thc beau? ty of a rival. In fact they have been weal ing a dress which is very becoming Lo-others." "THEY SIN.

We wander amidst tho limo hallowed Monuments of thc past, are dazzled by rho mag? nificence of tho pr? sent, dine in tho glittering Cafes of tho Palais Boyal, stroll with the merry crowds along tho Boulevards, and look on nt Ibo Jardin Mabillo, whero tho original foi? van s nightly duneed to thc most voluptuous of strains. Our author seems to havo tho nico dis crimination of an artist, and paints only thoso pictures for his renders which will bo glndly ?eized upon and appreciated, There ts, however, no point of any interest that ho slights, and >ne may read this book and easily imagine him leif beholding the vory thing ho rends of. It ls i forcible illustration of tho old ndngo, "truth is itranger than fiction," for tho author has given is pictures which, though true to the lifo, aro so itrange and seomingly full of romance, that one can hardly bolicve them real. But tho book ia far from being an exaggeration. Our readers will recognizo its fairness at onee by tho modern ion of its statements, and the absence of super ? ti vee from its pages, and all who pcruso it will agreo with us that nu moro rcmnrkahlo and leeply interesting book has been offerod to tho public for many yean.
