Chronicle published a poem entitled:
"Lines ona Skeleton," which excited
much attention.' Every effort, *even tor
the offering a reward of fifty gui?eas, was?
y?lnly rando to discover the author. All
that ever transpired ffifothat iho*poem^
in a fair, clerkly h;;nd. was found near a
skeleton of remarkable "beauty of form
and color, in the mus?um of the Royal
College of Surgeons, Lincoln's; Inn, Lon

hui sent them to Mr. Perry, editor and
proprietor of the-Jloi-riing Chronicle.].
Behold this ruin! 'Twas a skull
Once of ethereal spirit full ;
This narrow*cell was Life's retreat,
This space was Thought's mysterious
seas. ' " '. ,
What beauteous visions filled this spott
What dreams of pleasure, long forgot !
Nor hope, nor love, nor joy, nor fear, '
Has left one trace of record here.
Beneath this mouldering canopy
Once shone the bright and busy eye ;
But start not at the dismal void
If social love that eye employed,
If with no lawless fire it gleamed,
But through the dews of. kindness
beamed,
That eye shall be forever bright
When stars and suns are sunk in night.
Within ;his hollow.cavern bung j
The ready, swift and tuneful tongue ;
I ;' falsehood's hone}- it disdained,
And - ;here it could not praise was chained
If boid in virtue's causo if spoke,
Yet gentle concord never broke, -
Tais silent tongue shall nle?d for thee
"When time unveils eternity.
Say, did thcao fingers delve the mine?
Or -,vith its envied rubies shino?
To hew tho rock, or wear the gem,
Can little now avail to thenr: . .
But if the page of truth they sought,
Or comfort to tEo mourner brought,
Taese hands a .richer meed shall claim
Tiiau ail that wait on Wealth or Fame.
Avails it, whether bnre or shod
These feet the. path of duty trod,
If from the boiver*cfjEaso they lied,
To seek Affliction's humble shed;
If Grandeur's guilty bribe they spurned
And homo to Virtue's cot returned,
These feet with angel's wings shall vie
And tread the palace of the sky.
GEN. ^BY'TH??RAL.
Thc Dead Hero a Christian.-A Remi
niscence of His College Days.
[Correspondence Columbia JlegUtcr.']
COKE.>LURY, A-:r> io, ISSI.-The
remains of Gen. Martin Withersr oon
Gary arrived in Cokes'bury this (Sun
-. _ day) morning from Edgefield. accom..
pai??a by several friends and rela
tives. It was escorted to the residence J.
of his brother, Dr. F. F. Gary.
. His face bore the natural command
ing look that characterized him in
life. On the 'coffin was' engraved in
silver, M. W. Gary, Died April 9
ISSI. It toll be remembeied that
Gen. Gary died on the sixteenth an
niversary of the surrender of Gen.
Lee at Appomattox.Ccurt-House.
The funeral procession moved from
Di*. Gary's residence at half-p?8t 2
o'clock P. M. .The pall-bearers from
Abbeij^'po^t^ were Cid. B. Z
He:nuW,'4*r.^f?. Connor^Mcsas,
G. W. ..Conner* and F. D" Cviu.or?
Those from Edgefield. County were,
Hon. John'C. Slieppari; .Messrs.
Addison, B. W. Bettis, Jr.;and Ben
jamin Abney. The remains were
carried to Tabernacle Graveyard, two
miles Southeast of Cokesbury. .
Rev. William Thomas, the pastor
of the Methodist Church here, con
ducted the ceremonies. He made a
few very appropriate remarks, some
of whicit I take the. liberty of copy
ing from hi3 notes :.
"The cause of our gathering or.
this sacred spot (the repository of the
honored dead) is not only solemn,
but to many of us extremely painful.
. -A fellowman has passed away from
earthly scenes. A companion has
been taken Jfjpj^urmijsfc. A, friend
hae been snatched suddenly from ?
large circle of otherfriends. A broth
er is. missed :from the hearthstone,
where sit in nourning' loved sisters
and other brothers, whose tears be
speak the loss they have met. A son
has been torn from the embrace of a
doting mother, who still lingers (Mrs.
Gary was still alive at this time) at
the family home, under the pressing
weight of more than three score and
ten year3. These things deeply af
fect us while we stand at the tomb ol
the departed. We would- fain min
gle our tears with the bereaved, and
if possible mitigate their enp of sor:
row. We sometimes assemble at the
graveyard to place.in the tomb a
sweet little hale, a simple bud of
promise, that has not yet thrown its
tendrils around the heartstrings of
societjf. ^"|ei<fr?p?* tear over the in
nocent iornv'kiss its lily forehead
and lay it away to rest, soon forget
ting that, it ever, lived. Then an ag
ed form, beading ??d?r th<f burden.
or long life and'accuhiulaled infirmi
ties, falls by the ruthless hands of
death, and as we -Bee that life "was
spared till all that makes 'it lovely
vas gone, we are content to say,
,l 'As fall tho autumn leaves when fully
spent,
So fallest thou.'
"Eut this is a call of a very differ
ent nature. Vigorous manhood lies
p?strate i/i death. Cutoff in the'
xaidst of bi* days, just as the manly
powers were beginning to group them
selves to grapple with the great prob
lems of life, and to assert their ful1
e3t strength. At the very moment
when bc wa? girding on the habili
ments of intellectual power and raov
ing upward to tue zenith ct' -his ca
pacity, the message comes, the sum
mons must be obeyed. 'Marvelon?
are thftw?rk?, 0 Lord ! Thy path is
not known in the d.vrk, anoVthy ways
are past finding out.' We bow in
obedience to thy behest.
"As a patriot, ..'?ie had no superior

-pressed ; while her reverses were
mourned over as personal calamities
and a'fB:~Kons; yet in all her misfor
tunes, he ^eteinedtothelast the prin
ciples for which the founders*had
valiantly-contended without stint or
compromise.
?^?'gAa a soldier,, he stood shoulder
shoulder with his' companions -in
arms. Nc"duty was .shunned by him
No miiitsry . order. disobeyed: Al
ways in place in time of need. The
heavy march, the empty haver
sack and the cold ground for a rest
ing place, were things veiy ^^?ailiar
to him; as he shared in them with
the rank and file of the army in the
severest campaigns.
"Of his courage we scarcely need
10 speak; forgone were ever found, to
doubt it. No thought o.f-self preser
vation caused him. to hesitate, aven
while the most imminent danger at
tended his steps, and though he mar
velously escaped injury during the
whole Confederate struggle, yet few
were more exposed to the missiles of
death than our departed friend.
"As an officer he was kind and
lenient ta his men, almost to a fault,
In4uiging them as far as possible,
consistently with good order and dis
cipline ; still exacting obedience from
all in hie command, while he cheer
fully rendered the same to those in
superior positions.
"His religious opinions were held
firmly and with much greater rever
ence than some were willing to allow.
We take the liberty of saying that
he was no skeptic. It was my pri v
"deg??nd pleasure to be an intimate
friend of the departed, in the army
and in private life since the war.
Upon inquiring why he did not ex
plain the charge brought against hie
religious belief, he replied; 'That
while I was a student in .the South
Carolina College I was very ill with
fever and became delirious. While
delirious a minister called upon me
to speak to me upon the subject of re
ligion. In my delirium I repelled
the minister. ? report was circula*
ted that I did not care for or believe
the truth. My pride would not al
ly w me to seek to correct such a re
port, for every one that had heard it
knew that it wa? while I was deliri
ous' that I repelled the minister,
and, therefore, did not know what I
was doing.' j
"He asked me once if I could pro
care him a small copy of the Pro
verbs; one that he could carry in his
vest pocket. I procured an English
edition and presented it to him, and
to my personal knowledge it was
his daily companion for a long time.
He said that the Proverbs contained
many comforting thoughts for him.
"Great injustice was done to our
leparted friend by his enemies, when
ie made a public speech in Columbia,
5. C., on the-moral powers of Europe
jcing arrayed against the Confedera
cy. .General G?ry said : 'moral pow
?ra or no moral powers, the Confed
eracy mast win.' His"enemies chang
11 his'words to: 'God or no God, the
Confederacy must win,';. He'did not
jay "God or no God,' for I remem
ber hearing his speech distinctly."
After Rev. Mr. Thomas concluded
lis remarks the body was lowered
nto the grave, when he read the usu
il burial service.

A Story Abont Maiionei
Virginia's new Senator elect is
physically a man in miniature. Men
tally, if his opponents are fit judges,
he weighs something like a ton;
but on the scale he tips the beam at
less than a hundred pounds. In ap
pearance he is as lean and thin as a
greyhound; and it is doubtful if his
avoirdupois in gross could be made
to yield adipose sufficient to lubricate
the wing .of a humming bird. The
following pretty good story illustra
tive of his exceeding leanness ?3 told
of him: During the late war, while
in command of a division of Confed
erates, he, like many ethers, hid the
misfortune to be wouna<?d ; but, as it
happened on that occasion, not seri
ously. An acquaintance, about to
visit Richmond, was requested to
jail upon the General's wife for the
purpose of relieving any anxiety she
might feel on account of her absent
lord, by explaining the nature and
?xtent of his injury. Col.-called
it the lady's residence, and, as report
joes, found her in tears, she having
ilready received the news of her
?usband's wounding by telegraph.
Che officer attempted to reassure her
>y the statement that the Genera]
vould be on duty again in a few
lays, but without avail. ?Jj
'you ougjHHJSBr^Ke ytf*iidf so
P.U'JU concern ; he received ofcry- a
lesh wound; no bones are broken."
"Ah, Colonel," she sobbed, "you
lon't know th'-the General a9 well
.s I-I do or you would not tell rn'
ie could be-be" wounded without
trik-striking a bone P
Of course nothing more could be
aid.- Washington Hepublican.
Duty, though set about by thorns,
lay be made a staff, supporting even
rhile it tortures. Cast it away, and
ike the prophet's wand, it changes to
snake.
Greatness stands upon a precipice,
nd if prosperity, unbalanced by mo
il suasion, carries a man ever so lit-J
le beyond his poise, it overbears and 7
ashfs him to pieces.

ACH- year the question. o? t?ie cheapest, and at the same tyne the moat
l.urabl?; and effective fence becomes more prominent, ' and it has remained
br the firm of SEDGWICK BROS. to solve the problem. This' they have .
