Add to all of this the improvements made from year to year, slopes of green velvety lawn, beautiful shade trees and other plants and costly mon- uments of various designs. In this cemetery people can learn by personal inspection how beautiful nature is, both in her own simplicity, and when her charms are heightened by the touch of art. And dont say, that such visits answer no purpose save to gratify an idle curiosity! They suggest new ideas; they awaken purer tastes; they show how the simplest ...piece of ground may be embellished by a little skill and labor; how even the stern repulsiveness of the grave can be chastened; and they send him back to his usual sphere of life determined to adorn his own home, and to beautify the spot where he expects ere long to lay his ashes too. The fact is significant then and it is honorable to the character of our peo- ple, that we are not wholly engrossed in the worship of mammon, neglectful of the amenities and tender charities of life. There are few who would not, if they could choose, choose such a peace f ul place, as Calvary Cemetery, where the great companionship of dead gives a sense of fellowship, sad but not painful.
