[We would be much pleased to insert every week communications regarding subjects which are of general interest to our readers. Personal communications will be invariably rejected. Editor Southern California—Allow me to call the attention of your readers to the condition of our cemetery. In all civilized communities, there is a desire to beautify and ornament the last bodily resting place of our children and relatives. In the Eastern States, with an inclement climate, they have beautiful evergreens to cheer the grieved mourners in Winter, and in Summer, beautiful flowers are carefully reared to mark the loved spot, where the dear ones are hidden from sight. But here, cwing to the fact, that the amount of care the flowers require is great, and also owing to the ravages of gophers and similar pests our graves present an uncheering and desolate appearance. It is vain to plant trees or shrubs unless they are taken care of. Nothing would so soon destroy the gophers as thorough irrigation and that, with concert of action, would soon change our last resting place into a beautiful and desirable resort. I feel that any one that has ever suffered the loss, by death, of a loved relative or friend, will take an active inter- Proud in the blush of morning. What on the hill-top shines?

How they ring through the rhyme roses to the thrilling they sound with the tone, Thrilling they go through the bond! Brothers, God grant when this in life to come that we meet. See the smoke how the cleavage asunder! Hark the guns: peal on peat boom in their thunders! Quivers the eyelid, as around From rank to rank, flies the silt Shout it forth—shout it forth or the death! Freer already breathes the breath Death has broke loose, and begun; More fast through the smoke flash of the gun; More fast through the vapor like a pall Do the iron dice fall. Nearer they close—foes upon Ready! —from square to square Down on the knee they snap And the fire comes sharp foremost rank Many a man to the earth it is Many a gap by the balls is rolled O’er the corpse before springu man That the line may not fall to van To the right, to the left, and game Coes the Dance of Death in mass God's sunlight is quenched fight Over the host falls a brooding Brother, God grant when this In the life to come that we me LAFAYETTE HOTEL CHRIS.

It is in vain to plant trees or shrubs unless they are taken care of. Nothing would so soon destroy the gophers as thorough irrigation and that, with concert of action, would soon change our last resting place into a beautiful and desirable resort. I feel that any one that has ever suffered the loss, by death, of a loved relative or friend, will take an active interest in this matter. We know not at what time we ourselves will be laid in our last resting place, and as the good housewife puts things in order before going to rest, I would suggest, that the citizens of this place take the matter in hand before the rainy season has passed and make preparations to beautify our graveyard and arrange for its bountiful irrigation, so that a visit to our cemetery may cause us to look with gratification on our future resting place. Mrs — — [The ideas and suggestions of our correspondent are good ones and should be acted upon at once. The expense necessary to construct a ditch for the purposes of irrigation, would be only nominal, and we o-pine, that with facilities for copious irrigation, our cemetery would soon be redeemed from its present state of barrenness. Cemeteries, as a rule, are places of beauty, made so by the aid of trees and flowers. This is as it should be; and it ill becomes us to be behind hand in this matter, living, as we are, in a country where the most beautiful trees and flowers grow so profusely.] 1873. NO. 13.

Among his chattel possessions was a negro named Jake, or as he was more familiarly called, Uncle Jake, and there never lived a more provoking old darkey; for Uncle Jake, although a favorite, had many weaknesses, and among others he was particularly regardless of the truth, to such an extent in fact, that occasionally the good old judge found it necessary to punish him. It was the custom in those days, for the town constable to administer a flogging, for a consideration, whenever the master was disinclined to officiate, and the constable of this particular town had a severe reputation for proficiency among the darkies who had now and then been so unfortunate as to come under his hands.

That, Francis!" "Give Charlotte my last farewell." It was the custom in those days, for the town constable to administer a flogging. for a consideration, whenever the master was disinclined to officiate, and the constable of this particular town had a severe reputation for proficiency among the darkies who had now and then been so unfortunate as to come under his hands. Jake, although he had never been there, was well posted, and had a great repugnance to Massa G——who was the incumbent at that time. On one occasion, during the Christmas holidays, while the old judge was quite severely indisposed, Uncle Jake had been guilty of a misdemeanor, and punishment was deemed necessary, so the judge wrote a note to the constable about as follows: “Mr. G——: please give the bearer thirty-nine lashes and charge me. Judge II.” Calling on Uncle Jake, the judge ordered him to carry the note to G——, who would give him a grubbing hoe. Jake started off up town, but his suspicions were aroused. He could not understand what the judge wanted with a grubbing hoe at Christmas time, and his conscience not as clear as it should have. The result of his suspicion was that the truth suddenly flashed upon him—he was to be whipped. Seeing a schoolboy approaching, he took out the note and said: “Massa Bob, what is this note? Got so many dis morning I got 'em mixed.” The boy read the note and explained its contents to Jake, who whistled and laughed to himself as a bright idea struck him. Calling a negro boy, who was near, Jake said: “Does you want to make a quarter?” “Of course I does.” Well. take dis note down dar, to Massa G. an' git back a grubben hoe, and I wait here till you comes back, an'd den, I gives you a quart-er.” The boy hurried off to accomplish The dead men lie bathed in the weltering blood, and the living are blent in the slippery flood, and the feet, as they reeling and sliding go, remble still on the corpses that sleep below. That, Francis! "Give Charlotte my last farewell." The dying man murmurs, the thunders swell— I give—O God! are their guns so near? I comrades!—you volley!—look sharp to the rear! I give thy Charlotte thy last farewell, keep soft where Death thickest descendeth in rain. We friend thou forsakeest thy side shall regain! Otherward—thitherward reels the fight. And broods o'er the battle yet darker the night. Brothers, God grant when this life be o'er, the life to come that we meet once more! Dark to the hoofs that galloping go! The Adjutants flying. The horsemen press hard on the panting foe. Their thunder booms in dying— Victory! The terror has seized on the bastards all, And their colors fall! Victory! Closed is the bitter but glorious fight: And the day, like a conqueror, bursts on the night. Mark to the music—the drum and the life, How they ring with the triumph that follows the strife! Parnell, fallen brothers, though this life be o'er. There's another, in which we shall meet once more! Support a Home institution by subscribing for the "Southern Californian."
