'Twu » bop* our heart* bail cherished
More than earth beside;
fire the Spring’* firat bloom bad periahed,
Sicken’d it and died!
Clothing *oul in ftuiaral pall,
Embitfribg Mart with worm-wood** gall,
Flooding firm Faith’s pure brightness all
With Wo*’, tearful tide. “ ‘ U 7,0 ,
Strong men war* an, and pet wa wept
Bitter, soalding tears,
For the pain which ha* never slept, *
Mourning over bier*;
Where ghastly lay Earth’* highest trust,
Speechless, shrouded, destined to dust!
Oh! tortured heart* felt break they must
Under 1 Weight «f caseai
By no grand eortego sadly born*
To its lonely tomb ;
No studied panegyrics mourn
Its ttutimely dopm ;
To tell our grief/ ail were too weak 1
Naught but our tears might silent speak,
And furrowed agony of cheek,
Pray’d for death to come!
We laid a Sag beside it there—
Once a pennon blight;
Emblem ,of faith and glory rare ;
A’oio of Hope’s sad blight!
Pour’d in life blood which heroes gave,
Hearts sunk beneath and Sorrows wave,
Prayers from lips of good and brave,
Vanquished in the fight. •
From the heart’s deop recess flying
Up to Freedmen’s God,
Prayers Os faith go, ever crying,
“Grace to bear Thy rod,
For mangled souls, deep rent with woe,
For bleeding Trust, whose life-blood’s flow
Weep* ceaseless tears for Hope lain low—
Buried ’neath the sod !’’

Roofing.
LOOK TO YOUR ROOFS.
Having secured the state
RIGHT OF THE
PATENT MICA ROOFING,
We are now prepared to supply it in any
quantity, or to apply it to Roofs.
The MICA ROOFING is adapted to build
ings of every description, and can be ap
plied to Steep or Flat Roofs, or over old
Shingle Roofs, without removing the shin
gles. Wo recommend its use on Factories,
Foundries, Store Houses, Cotton Sheds,
Railroad Depots and upon all buildings
where steam is used, and a Fire Proof re
quired.
jlgr- It costs about one-half the price of
Tin.
It is cheap, durable, and is easily and
quiekly applied. Tho upper surface of the
Roofing is protected from the action of the
weather, by its covering of Ground Mica,
which is pressed into tho water proof com
position, making a hard surface of stone,
r beautiful in appearance, and a sure protec
tion against lire.
We shall also keep constantly on hand a
supply of
INDIA-RUBBER ROOFING PAINT,
which is the best coating that can be used
for Tin Roofing. Leaky Tia Roofs can be
readily repaired, so as ggalust many ygars,
at a trifling cost, which would in many
eases save the expense of anew Hoof.
Full directions for applying, and prices,
sent on application.
