SSS OUTSIPE FUR INTERESTING TELB- GHAPHIO AND OTHER MATTER. FoR TRE AccoMMODATION OF PERSONS leay- pg the city during tue sammer months they cau bave the STAg matied to their address, by ordering the same st the office, for iy cents Per Week, for one Week or more. ———————= = ==: Among the featares of the two cays memorial celebration: at Manassas, to Some off to-morrow aud next day, there are, (secording to Su Sanvoncemeut in the Alex - encria Garett.) “@ grand tourmament, te be totlowed by @ dinner,” “a discussion of tne Political affairs of the count and the “walking @ rope two hundred fee: long, at an elevation of forty feet trom ths ground,” by Mr. T.Tillet We bave ao fault to find with those who have chosen these methods of ex- pressing their grateful remembrance of the soldiers who fell im the “lost caase”—Jet them celebrate as they think proper—put the por- tons of the programme we have quoted are ealculaied, it seems to us, to add materially to the solemnity of such aa occasion. Fur sbe eating and drinkiag, perhaps, precedents may be cited im smcieut and modern times—from the funeral feasts of old to the Irish wakes oft our day—but how far the gorging of ihe living tends tw keep green the memory of the dead is @ question open to debate, Bat queerer and less emcusabie than the dinner are the teurnament and rope-walking. Waat connection there may be between the exploits of those who laid down their Itves in a cause they believed to be just, and the evolutioas of “Mr. T. Tillet” on a rope “forty feet from the gtound,” it passes our comprehension to par- ceive. The same remark Applies to the “poking sticks through @ ring,” otherwise atourna- ment. That the Southern people should desire to te tity their appreciation and grateful remem- brance of the valor of their friends aud brothers who vainly perished on the field of battle is not Unnatural; but the sober sadness of the cere- Monies OM smeb occasions should not ouly lift + far above the mire of politics, but banish, % tope-waiking an { all similar ex- to seewes and assvciacions where such wi-foolery would uot be svenurely ous of Place.
