Concerning The Cemetery.
' Thc cemetery is kept in a much
more ered?table manner thin it ivas
a}decade ago but not so well as it
was two-??r three .years ago. There
is some complaint 'that the money
raised for this purpose is not wisely
spent, or at least thc results obtain
ed are not as satisfactory as were
some time ago. A colored man
should be employed to give six
days in lhe week to the cemetery,
and not divide his time, in part at
least, between individuals here and
there. The keeping of the cemetery
in proper condition will require all
of the time of one man. Unless the
entire cemetery is well cared for,
the day will come when it will not
be an easy matter to raise funds for
this purpose. '

Company F. 2nd. Inf., N. G., S

Cime at the evening cold and gray.
To a chasm vast and deep and

The sullen stream had no fear for
him;
But h*? turned when safe on the
other sido
And bunt a bridge to span the
tide.
"Old man," ?aid a fellow pilgrim
, near, , . -
"You are wasting your strength
with building here;
Your journey will end with int
ending day/
You never again will pass this
.. way;
You've crossed the chasm, deep
and wide;
Why bnild yon this bridge at eve
ning tide?"
The builder lifted hi? old gray

"Go- d friend, in the path I have
C me,'' he said,
''There followeth after rae to-day,
A youth whose feet must pass this
way.
This chasm that has been as naught
to me,
To that fair-haired youth may a
pitfall be;
He, too, must cross in the twilight
dim
God friend, I'm building this bridge
for him!"
