BURIAL PLACES IN SOUTH AMERICA.
THE cave of Ataraipu is situated on the eastern shore of the Orinoco near the cataract of Atures. It is the place of sepulture of an extinct nation. The surrounding scenery, says Humboldt, has a grand and solemn character, which seems to mark it as a national burial place. From the summit of the granite rocks that enclose this wonderful spot, a wide prospect of the surrounding country astonishes the beholder ; hills richly crowned with woods rise from the foaming bed of the river, while beyond the western bank the eye rests on the boundless savannah of the Meta. This cave, or rather vault, is formed by a far-projecting and over- hanging cliff-a kind of bay hollowed out by the waters when formerly at this high level. When visited by Humboldt, there were about six hundred well-preserved

skeletons to be seen, placed in as many baskets, formed of the stalks of palm leaves. Besides these baskets there were a great number of urns of half-burned clay, containing the bones of whole families. The ornaments on these urns are precisely similar to those which cover the walls of the Mexican palace at Mitla. They are found in every clime and every stage of human culture -among the Greeks and Romans, no less than on the shields of Otaheitans and other South Sea islanders.
CEMETERIES IN THE UNITED STATES.
THE Cemetery of Mount Auburn, near Boston, was incorporated in 1831, and is, consequently, the first rural cemetery of any importance in America. It now contains about one hundred and twenty-five acres of beautifully-undulating ground, densely covered with forest trees, and adorned with numerous monumental structures. The principal eminence is crowned with a round tower sixty-two feet high, built of smooth- hammered granite, serves as a landmark by which this cemetery can be identified from a great distance, and commands one of the finest prospects in the environs of Boston. There is also a chapel, erected of the same material, on these grounds, which is adorned with a number of beautiful statues. The entrance

gate is built in the Egyptian style of architecture, and also of granite.
Laurel Hill Cemetery, near Philadelphia, is beau- tifully situated on the sylvan banks of the Schuylkill river, about three and a half miles north of the city. The grounds were purchased in 1836, and an act of incorporation passed the legislature of Pennsylvania during the session of the same year. The present extent of these grounds is one hundred and ten acres, and already much crowded with monuments and tombs.
Greenwood Cemetery, near New York, became a chartered institution in 1838. The enterprise, after four years of hard struggle, was at length placed upon a firm foundation, and the grounds were ready for burial purposes in 1842. From that time its history has been one of uninterrupted progress. It now con- tains an area of three hundred and ninety-five acres, with over one hundred and twenty thousand inter- ments, and is adorned with numerous costly monu- ments to the departed. The amount expended on monumental structures on these grounds, and other improvements, makes this place the wealthiest institu- tion of this kind in the country.
Wood Lawn Cemetery was established in 1863, and contains about three hundred and twenty-five acres. It is situated on the opposite side of New York, and promises to become, in the course of time, even more attractive than Greenwood.

Cemeteries in the United States.
Allegheny Cemetery, near Pittsburg, is remarkable for the picturesque beauty of its surface, diversified by hill and dale and running brooks, and contains at this time about three hundred and sixty acres of land, well adapted for sepulchral purposes. The grounds were dedicated in 1845.
Cave Hill Cemetery at Louisville, Kentucky, was laid out as a burial place about the same time as the above, and contains an area of one hundred and forty acres. The principal feature that distinguishes these grounds is, that individual burial lots are surrounded with low stone curbs.
Forest Lawn Cemetery, near the city of Buffalo, New York, was originally dedicated as a place of burial in 1850. These grounds contain about an equal quantity of forest and lawn, hence the name. They have recently been considerably enlarged, and are now known by the name of "Buffalo City Ceme- tery." Its present area is two hundred and three acres.
In the vicinity of Chicago are to be found three rural cemeteries. The first, Rose Hill, was established in 1859, and contains one hundred and thirty-five acres. The second, Graceland, was dedicated in 1861, and comprises an area about the same as the first. The third, Oakwood Cemetery, is situated on the south side of the city, and covers about three hundred acres. Although these cemeteries have not the natural advan-
132

tages which many other rural burial grounds possess, judicious improvements may, nevertheless, render them, in the course of time, very beautiful spots.
Crown Hill Cemetery, near Indianapolis, contains about two hundred and sixty acres, and was incor- porated in accordance with the laws of Indiana in 1863. Its name is derived from the only hill that is to be found in the vicinity of Indianapolis, and which occu- pies the center of this cemetery.
The Mount Olivet Cemetery, at Nashville, Ten- nessee, lies upon a beautiful eminence about two miles from the city, and was established in 1860.
Bellefontaine Cemetery, near St. Louis, was first established in 1850, under the name of "The Rural Cemetery Association," but afterward changed to its present name. The grounds are situated on the west side of the Mississippi river, on an eminence covered with native forest trees, chiefly oak, and embrace, at this time, an area of three hundred and twenty-five acres.
The Mountain View Cemetery at Oakland, near San Francisco, California, contains about two hundred acres, and was consecrated in 1865. This cemetery is divided into three parts. The one in front is appro- priated to the Hebrews; the one to the left of the entrance for Roman Catholics, and the one to the right to all other denominations.
Glenwood Cemetery, situated near Washington City, D. C., was incorporated by an act of the Senate
133
Cemeteries in the United States.
and House of Representatives of the United States and dedicated for burial purposes in 1854. About four miles of graveled serpentine walks are running through the premises, comprising altogether about ninety acres. The whole is surrounded by a deep wood, giving it a rural, quiet, and secluded character.
Cedar Hill Cemetery, near Hartford, Connecticut, was established in 1865, and contains about two hun- dred and fifty acres of suitable ground.

Conclusion.
F IT IS A CURIOUS INQUIRY FOR THE ANTIQUARIAN to trace the migration of nations by their graves, it is equally interesting to note the progress and growth of cities by their burial places. Among the sculptured sarcophagi and other sepulchral monu- ments of Etruria, for example, we could exhibit the most convincing proof that no nation ever surpassed that people in the solemnity of the last duties paid to departed worth and greatness. The catacombs of Syra- cuse also might be pointed to, as giving the clearest idea of the immense extent of that once powerful city, for of all her remaining monuments, they alone have con- veyed an idea of the high pinnacle of wealth and gran- deur from which she fell. To behold, however, the majesty of ancient entombment we must visit Petra- the Edom of prediction-that city, in whose contem-
135
Conclusion.
plation the mind is perplexed whether most to admire the bold grandeur of its circlets of rocks, or the structures that, chiseled on their brow, seem to rival in beauty, strength, and durability the precipices from which they rise. Petra, the necropolis of a nation, for a thousand years unknown, even as to its locality, when discovered presented on every side tombs of most elab- orate workmanship, of inimitable splendor. It was "a city filled with tombs," presenting the evidences of a people, opulent, refined, luxurious, familiarizing the mind with death, by endeavoring to strip it of its terrors by the gorgeousness of its abode. Wells, altars, and graves, the earliest, the universal tokens of man's presence on earth, the most essential objects of his interest, are also the most enduring of his works. They multiply as do the tribes and numbers of our race.
Burckhardt was the first of European travelers who visited this remarkable spot, and gives as careful a description as his memory afforded of the wonders of this valley-the hundreds of sepulchral chambers, adorned with Grecian sculpture, excavated in the red sandstone rocks flanking the valley-of the mausolea, some in the Egyptian style, with obelisks, some of the chaste architecture of the Greeks-and especially of the Khasneh or " Treasury of Pharaoh," an excavated edifice of wonderful beauty. A feeling for simplicity and ele- gance has here co-operated with the admiration for

solidity and grandeur. In no instance, says another writer, does architecture exhibit to the wondering pres- ent the mysteries of the prescient past, and speaks from the " clefts of the rock," and from "the hights of the hills, to the astonished one who goeth by." Gorgeous temples, sculptured and excavated rocks, tombs, etc., remain to tell that this was the "Edom" once the populous and opulent abode of the descendants of Esau ; now a desolation and a curse-a habitation for dragons, and a court for owls.
" Future travelers," says Burckhardt, " may visit the place under the protection of an armed force, and the antiquities of the valley will then be found to rank among the most curious remains of ancient art." The manna, which drops from the sprigs of the Gharrab trees, is still to be found here, also the indigo, gum- arabic, and silk trees.
The most ancient kind of sepulchral monuments, it is supposed, was the barrow or tumulus. Some parts of Europe, Asia, and America are full of those mounds, which are divided into altar mounds, temple mounds, and sepulchral mounds ; into the latter, repositories of the dead have been committed, age after age, unnum- bered multitudes.
The ancient Scythians measured their affections and loyalty to their chiefs by the magnitude of the mounds which they raise over their remains. Even the most obscure and unlettered tribes of men have not
137
Conclusion.
been less zealous in the veneration for the mortal remains of humanity, than those nations which have arrived at the highest pitch of refinement, and who merely modified that veneration in conformity with their peculiar manners, customs, and mode of worship. The chiefs of a tribe of North American Indians, on being asked by the deputies of a civilized nation, to exchange their ancient territory for a new home which had been selected for them, thus affectingly replied to the cruel and unfeeling demand : " If we quit our native soil what will the spirits of our fathers think ? Can we say to their ashes, arise and follow us?" You feel that this is impossible! Who ever read of any civilized or savage people of bygone ages, desecrating the graves of their ancestors, and rudely cast aside the bones of departed worth and virtue? This abominable practice is only characteristic of civilized Christians of the nine- teenth century. How much better for the health of the living and the honor of the dead, if those old burial places, which remain here and there in our densely- populated cities, and where no more interments are made, were converted into beautiful parks, thus con- tributing to the embellishment of the abodes of the living, instead of being built over merely for the sake of gain.
In the history of the modes of interment among all nations, from the remotest antiquity, it will be seen that the greatest respect was shown to burial places,

and that the wisest of mankind not only perceived the dangers to be apprehended from burying of the dead in the vicinity of the living, but that the various govern- ments rigidly prohibited the practice. Our best affec- tions are involved and call upon us to secure the peaceful repose of the departed, and at the same time to remove as far as possible from the living the pestifer- ous exhalations of the dead. The opinions of medical writers and philosophers are accurately described by Dr. Walker and other eminent authorities, and furnish ample material to exercise the serious consideration of the enlightened statesman, the profound philosopher, and the sincere and benevolent Christian.
