The Dead March

THE DEAD MARCH.—What a mighty procession has been moving towards the grave during the past year! At the usual estimates, since the first of January, 1868, more than thirty-one million five hundred thousand of the world's population have gone down to the grave. Place them in a long array, and they will give a moving column of more than thirteen hundred to every mile of the circumference of the globe. What a spectacle, as they move on, tramp, tramp, the “Dead March” giving its funeral notes as they go to the silent shades.
