THE CONSTITUTIONALIST
SUNDAY, APRIL 25, 1875.
She Wanted an Epitaph.
(Detroit Free Press.)
She came in from the country a few
t-iays ago and ordered a head-stone for
the grave of her departed husband.
The marble-cutter was to have it all
ready yesterday, when she was to come
in again with the inscription, have the
letters carved on and take the stone
away.
She was on time ; but she wore an
anxious, troubled look, having failed
to % write up such a notice as she
thought the stone ought to bear.
“ I want sunthin’ that’ll do my poor
dead Homer justiss,” she explained to
the marble-cutter. “ I think I ought
to have one or two verses of poetry,
and then a line or two at the bottom—
sunthin’ like ‘ Meet me on the other
shore,’ you know.”
The cutter said he thought he could
get up something, and she entered the
office, and he took out twenty-three
sheets of foolscap and three pen-hold
ers and set to work, while she held
her breath for fear of disturbing his
thoughts. He ground away for awhile,
scratched out and wrote in, and finally
said he had got the neatest thing that
ever went upon white marble. It read :
IN MEMORY
of
HOMER CLINK,
who died
Oct. 13th, 1873,
Aged 41 yrs., 7 mos., 21 dys.
My husband was a noble man,
Of me he lots did think ;
And I’ll never see another man
Like my dear Homer Clink.
“ Isn’t that bully ? ” asked the man
as he finished reading the inscription.
“It’s purty fair, but /’replied
the widow.
“ But what, madam ? ”
“ Why, you see, he was good and
kind, and was alius to hum nights, and
all that, but I may find another man
just as good, you know. I have said
that I would not marry again, but I
may change my mind, and I guess we
had better tinker up that verse a lit- N
tie. And, besides, you didn’t get any
thing on the bottom.”
She went out and rambled among
the tombstones while the cutter ground
away again, and just as she had be
come interested in a dog fight, he
called her iff and read the new inscrip
tion. The first part was as before, but
his poetry read:
My husband is dead,
My poor Homer Clink,
And in the cold fground they have
laid him ;
Ho was always home nights,
£“ver got into fights,
i But death came along and betrayed
him.”
“ 1 shall meet him on the other
shore, where all is lovely, and where
sickness never comes.”
“There, how’s that?” inquired the
poet, a bland smile covering his face.
“Seems to me as if that went right to
the heart.”
The woman took the paper, read the
notice over four or five times, and
finally said:
“I don’t want to seem particular
about this, and I know I’m makin’ a
deal of trouble’ That would do for
most any one else—it’s the real poetry,
but I’d like sunthin’ kinder different,
somehow. He was a noble man. He
never gave me a cross word in his life
—not one. He’d be out of bed at day
light, start tho fire, and I never got up
till I heard him grinding the coffee.
He was a good provider, he was. He
never bought any damaged goods be
cause he could git ’em cheap, and he
never scrimped me on sugar and tea,
as some folks do. I can’t help but
weep when I think of him !”
She sobbed away for awhile, and then
brightened up and said :
“Of course, I’ll meet him in heaven.
It’s all right. As I told you, I may
never marry again, though I can’t tell
what I’ll be driven to. Just try me
nee more.”
She sat down to an old almanac, and
the cutter resumed his pen. He seem
ed to get the right idea at once, and it
wasn’t fifteen minutes before he had
the third notice ground out. It read:
IN MEMORY
of
HOMER CLINK,
Wiio died
October 14, 1873,
Aged 41 yrs., 7 mos., 21 days.
He was the kindest sort o’ man,
He was a good provider:
And when a friend asked him to drink
He always called for eider.
His wife she was a noble heart,
And though she may remarry,
Whene’er she thinks of Homer Clink
Her heart a sigh will carry.
He has crossed the dark river and
found peace and good health.
“That’s good—that just hits mel” ex
claimed the widow, tears coming to
her eyes. I’ve got to go and do some
trading, and I’ll be back in two hours.
Put the inscription on handsomely, and
I shan’t mind two dollars oxtra.”
About noon ’her one-horse wagon
backed up to the dealer’s, and as the
stone was loaded up the widow’s face
wore a quiet smile of satisfaction.
The City of Berlin.
This magnificent addition to the In
man fleet is expected to arrive at New
York early in May, on her trial trip,
returning to Liverpool on the 15th of
the same month. She is—excepting
the Great Eastern—the largest mer
eantive vessel afloat, measuring 520
feet in length over all. # ln addition to
the regular decks there is an upper
one, used exclusively as a promenade
for cabin passengers. There is also on
the main deck a ladies’ saloon, where
the ladies can enjoy the air without ex
posure in stormy weather. Her con
struction is of the most substantial
kind, every appliance that science
could suggest having been employed
to make her staunch in every part,
especial attention being given to
strengthening the hull. Eight iron
Bulk-heads, running from keel to main
deck, divide the vessel into nine water
tight compartments, each of which can
be isolated from all the others, thus
reducing the danger by fire or collision
to a minimum.
The City of Berlin promises as great
speed as the other celebrated steamers
of the Inman Line, having, on her
trial trip, made 16 knots, or 18X miles
per hour. The appointments for the
comfort and convenience of passen
gers are of the most luxurious descrip
tion. . , „
The elegantly furnished saloon,
piaced amidships, occupies the whole
width of the steamer, is 44 feet long,
and will seat comfortably 200 persons.
The staterooms adjoining are provided
with water ready laid ®n, and eleotric
bells connecting with the steward’s
room.
Such are the vast dimensions of this
vessel that crowding ii entirely avoid
ed, saloon, smokiug-room, bath-rooirfS,
ladies’ boudoirs, barber’s shop and
state-rooms being alike spacious and
well ventilated, thereby rendering sea
sickness almost an impossibility.
W- Stevenson, Esq , for many years
agent of tlie Inman Line, in connection
with his regular agency of the New
York, Philadelphia and Boston Steam
ship Lines, via Charleston, S. C., will
be happy to book passengers for Liver
pool and the Continent. As May and
.Tune are the favorite months for cross
sing the Atlantic, parties should antic
pate. Staterooms secured three months
in advance. The price of state-rooms
same as in New iork, in fact, no dis
tinction is allowable,
“Unknown.”
BY C. F. T.
Written on reading the inscription over
the grave ef a Confederate Soldier, in Au
gusta Cemetery, Decoration Day, April
26th, 1874.
All around me, strewn with flowers,
Lies each little rounded bed,
Strewn with garlands, wreaths, and chap
lets,
For the noble Southern dead.
All around are Georgia’s daughters,
Fairest of this Southern land,
Come to pay a last sad tribute,
With a loyal heart and hand.
Come to place o’er fallen heroes,
Flowers, rich, and rare, and bright;
Heroes, who in vain have fought for
Southern freedom, Southern right.
Many come with looks of sadness,
Pale and wan is many a face,
Memory brings up forms of loved ones,
Lapse of time can not efface.
Fathers, brothers, loved ones fallen
In a cause, though lost, still just;
Ah, old Georgia holds most precious
Many a veteran hero’s dust.
As I gaze on each small tablet,
Read the names on each headstone,
My eyes meet one, no name upon it
But the simple word, “Unknown.”
“Unknown!” Is there none can tell then
Who lies ’neath Ihis bed ol clay?
None, and all we know about him
Is, he wore the “coat of grey.”
Can ye tell, ye Southern breezes.
That across my cheek do blow?
Whisper gently of the “Unknown,"
Tell me all of him you know.
Yes, methinks the soft winds answer,
Murmuring sadly in my ear:
We can tell you of the “Unknown”
Who lies calmly sleeping here.
Once he was a widowed mother’s
Fair haired boy, her hope, her pride,
Now that lonely motker knows not
How, or where, her boy has died.
Strong in limb, and tall of stature,
Type of manhood—naught did fear;
Hark ! the boom from distant Sumter
Strikes upon his listening ear.
Seizing quick each trusty weapon,
Ready, eager for the fray.
Grasped with strong right hand the sabre,
Donned in haste the “coat of grey.”
Pressed his mother to his bosom,
Bade a fond, a last adieu,
Mother, dear, 1 fight for freedom,
For that flag, “ The Bonnie Blue.”
And the soft wind’s gentle murmur
Tells a sad. a wild sad story,
How the soldier fought and bled,
Fought and fell, for Southern glory.
Not as fought the hired mongrela,
Bought with glittering Northern gold,
But for rights.—our soldier fought for
Freedom— wealth itself untold.
Gather then the blooming flowers,
Brightest gems from mother earth,
Hushed be every sound, let sadness
Take the place of joyous mirth.
'Bread with softly falling footsteps
Where your patriot dead are lain,
Hallowed be the ground that holds them
Graves of martyrs—Southern slain.
Lady, stay one moment longer,
In your hand are flowers fair,
And,'a bright sprig of geranium,
Nestles in your dark brown hair.
Lady, take the bright fresh flower,
Take it from the silken wave
Of thy tresses, lay it gently
On the Unknown soldier’s grave.
Lady, once there lived a maiden,
Just as fair as you are now,
But her face is stamped with sorrow;
Anguish written on her brow.
Oft she finds sweot consolation,
Praying to the God above,
For the soldier ’neath us sleeping;
For her first, her only love.
Strew with flowers the fallen hero,
Wreath a garland rich and rare,
Choicest roses, leaves of laurel,
Crowns for victor’s brows to wear.
Ah, methinks the evening sunbeams
Love to finger round tula place,
And, amid their glorious halo,
Letters golden I can trace.
Deeply carved in gold and crimson;
Traced upon the grassy sod,
Sunbeams write their heavenly tidings:
“Unknown” here, but known to God.

~ ANALYSIS
OF THE
LAGER BEER
FROM
E. ANHEUSER Ac CO.,
IN ST. L.OUIS, MISSOURI-.
U. S. NAVAL LABORATORY, I
New York, September, 1874.)
The “ST. LOUIS LAGER BEER” of E.
Anheuser & Cos., at St. Louis, Mo., having
been analysed, gave the following results:
Specifle Gravity 1.02 per cent.
Extracted Matter 7.82 “
Carbonic Acid 0.16 “
Alcohol : 4.89 “
Ashes 0.24 “
From these figures it will be readily seen
that the “St. Louis Lager Beer” proves a
heavier specifle weight than all other beer
now manufactured in our market; its sub
stance of carbonic acid is superior even to
the Scotch Ale, Salvator Beer, Braun
schweiger Mumme and Munchener Lager
Beer • its substance of alcohol comes near
the “Munchener Hofbrau,” and its extract
substance proves to be between the “Zacherl
Doppelbier” and the “Salvator Beer.”
CONCLUSIONS FROM THE ANALYSIS OF THE
QUALITY:
The quality of this Beer, as shown by our
analysis, is superior by its pureness, as no
extraneous matter could bo detected. The
large amount of extract substance (malt be
ing used in extraordinary great quantities,
which, having beon roasted, gives the beer
that peculiar flavor of fresh bread) makes
this beer a very nourishing and highly re
commendable drink for medicinal purposes.
Another good quality of this boer is that it
keeps in good condition under all circum
stances. W. C. CONRAD,

Sir A DINES !
FIVE years siuee t after previous years
of experience, m the propagation and
preservation of SHADINES, or young
Shad, we first introduced our ilsh to the
American people.
Shadinos are put up in hermetically seal
ed tin boxes, perfectly boneless, in a mild,
pleasing, appetizing sauce, palatable to all,
free from oil—so objectionable in sardines—
retaining only the natural richness of the
Shad, and ready for the table at all times,
for dinner, lunch or evening meal, by
merely opening the box. Many complaints
having been made that irresponsible par
ties are palming off American Club Fish
alias Ocean Trout, for Shadines, customers
will bear in mind we are the original and
only packers of Shadines, and every genu
ine "box has the letters H. fc C. pressed on
each side. HOOPE & CO.,
