Oun CkmeterV. That the 'Jackson
ville cemetery is one of the mo'st
charming-snots on the Pacific. Cbasfjis
acknowledged by every stranger who"
visits it. Tho ground's, comprising
about, J3Q acres. of woodland, are dotted
.withbeantiful, evergreens 6f laurtl,
cedar, fir, spruce, sugar pine, manzanita,
'mountain mahogany, and live oak; also-.numerous
black and white 'oak's.
the grounds are situated on a senile

from the Valley below, and are survey
ed t,ff into eight subdivision for 'the
accommodation of the ditferent orders
and religious beliefs. Wt4 have hefe

Tlie Jacksonrilfe Cemetery had been

and during all that time Sargent Dun

taken e'reat nam's in keenfn"- 'tho
grounds Jn'good order and otherwise-
improving tnem. no has ulso kept a
list of all the huriajs for the past 21
years, cause of death, etc , which list
if published would constitute an inter
esting page in the history of Jackson
ville and Boguo river valley. Ever
.since the establishment of the cemetery.
Persons have been brought-here for
sepulture from a ditanee, hence the
large riumber of graves. Mrs1. Mirgret
Love's, Aug. 1859"was thetirst, and
Mrs. Margaret Hart's, Sep. 10j 1880,
was the last grave.
Considering the isolation of Jackson
ville and the difficulty of reaching-
the railroad, it is a noteworthy fact,
that the giaves of the dead are'adorued
with a number of nice pieces of marble
work. Wo learn that a' number of
new, monuments are shortly to be
placed on tho graves of deceased friends,
that will go far in beautifying -this citv
of the- dead. W. L. Becord, of the

pur midst, hai already secared over
$2,000 worth of fine marble work, to
be erected here early In tho Spring.
Tjie Independent Parties.
Among the members of the legislature
on tho train yesterday from the South
was Col. John E. Boss. The Colonel
is usually good humored, but this tinio
he was short in his auswers. All al
lowed for the fact that the Colonel had
not slept since the night before, and
rodo on the stage ninety miles during
a part of the time, but feeling there
must be something else in tho way
they asked him what was his trouble.
The answer was: "Dem John Burrnett
He resigned tho position of Senator t
run for Judge, when if he had re
mained, the Senate would have been a
tie, and I would hav e had the casting

his stomach, with & twinkle
in his eye, tho Colouel continued,
"then you'd have seen what we. us
and the Independent party, would have
done. Wo would hated ruled the

Ross would have held the deciding
vote. Salem Statesman.
