GEN. TAYLoR's FUNERAL.

The Washington Correspondent Of the New York
Tribune, speaking Of Gen. Taylor's Funeral, says
"The venerable war-steed Gold Whitey) followed
Immediately behind the remains of his devoted own
er. He was richly caparsoned, and wore his accus-
toned saddle surmounted by the holsters, &c. He
was led by Mr.. Schwartzman, clerk in the Post
Office Department., who claimed this honor is consid-
Grafton of pasrassocations He served thirteen long
years with General Taylor in the Indian Wars-part
of the time as an Orderly Sergeant. The old War
steed was object of peculiar interest to the more
curious of the multitude whe gazed upon the pageant.
The Undertaken of the Funeral was Samuel Kir-
bey. The funeral car was designed by William II.
Winter, and built by Haslup e. Weeden. These ar
tisans are all Westinghouse. They procured the
costly of their materials in Baltimore; and some
of them indeed costly. For example, am informed
that some of the tassels high ten dollars.
When it is remembered that the pail of the Coffin
alone was ornamented with eight of these, some idea
OF the cost OF the whole arrangement may be formed
The Coffin can not have cost less than five hundred
dollars and the expenditure on the East Room alone,
must have cost at least thousand dollars. From a
hurried estimate do not hesitate to venture one
hundred thousand dollars the COST direct and col
LATERAL of this pageant, including, of course, the
moval of the remains to Louisiana. This may seem
large, until the nature of the is considered. Oi
course, include the expenditures at all the Forts,
Arsenas, &C., transportation of troops to and fro,
&c., &c. The telegrapaic bills alone of the Gov.
number Of dispatches having been sent after Office
hours and at extra rates accordingly. The item o
glazed muslin used in this city, at Government ex.
pense, would astonish many people if aware OF its
cost. Twenty thousand yards at least have been used
All the hacks in this city engaged at five dol
lars apiece, &C., &c. l have not made my estimate
in any spirit Of complaint; by no means.''

Let it be known in all portions of the State, and
especially in the middle and East, that Colonel Reid
subscrbes to the great principles here laid down by
Judge Castor; that he does not propose to disturb
the basis of representation and that Gov. Manly doe
propose 10 disturb that basis, and to reopen the oun
tains of strife and bitterness between the East
West.
We have heard it argued, in certain quarters, tha
co'. Reid by advocating Equal Suffrage, has mad:
himself responsible for Gov. Manly's attack th'
basis OF representation! Such an argument is un
worthy of an idiot. Because Col. Reid demands a,

that the men who do the fighting, who paw ,hei
taxes, and work the roads, ought to be allowed t.
vote for all the officers who makelaws to operate up

dare not openly question: he is be saddled with Gov

Shoes.

The little town of Hayerhill, in Massachu-
sets, makes annually 100000 pairs of shoes,
worth 100000. TAe amount paid for labor
in manufacturing them is $25o.000. A snug
little income to the laboring population of a
small town, besides the profits to the neighbor-
ing farmers in the sale of the hides of the OK
en-, calves and sheep, and the profits of tan
ners and leather dressers in preparing them
for use
On which, the vicksburg Wing says: In
stead of working up the hides in Vicksburg
and vicinity, we send them to Haverhill, and
other places, thousands of miles away, and then
bring them back made into shoes, saddles.
harness. &c. We have every facility and ma
terial for tanning in our vicinity. cheaper than
it can be had in Massachusetts, and yet we
know of but one small tan yard in the county.
Thousands of hides are shipped from here ev-
cry year, and thousands more are left to rot
for the want of a home market

Noble Conduct.

On Sunday night, two men, named Clark,
and Gardiner of this city started in small
schooner from Greenwich, Conn, to come to
New York. During the storm, their vessel
was capsised off Eaton's Neck, L. L The ac-
cident was observed by large number of
people, but so high ran the sea that none
would trust themselve in the life boat except
ing captain Benjamin Downing, an aged invalid
of 20 years, and his son Franklin, aged 16-
These two went out to the wreck and took
Clark from her, and would have taken Gardi-
ner too, had he not trusted himself to four oars
expecting to get ashore, but the wind being
adverse, he drifted further out and was drown
ed. The vessel was wrecked about half mile
out, but was now one-quarter of mile further
and desperate effort was required to work
the life boat ashore against the wind and sea-.
Clark was saved, and captain D. and his son
were yesterday hard at work to help him save
something from the wreck, in which his all
had been embarked and lost. N. Y.Ex

The Old South church.

This venerable church, now hundred and
twenty years old, is undergoing repairs, fol
there is nothing, not even Fanuel Hall, or the
great tree in the common, which Bostonians
(and indeed all New Englanders,) are more
careful to preserve and keep up the historical
association with than 1.-THE Old South Church.
Its antique and quaint architecture is not tc
be changed, internally or externally: but it is
painted and repairad in some places. The fol
lowing "reminiscences, will be found interesting
to the general reader:
This structure was erected in $780, and du.
ring the century and fifth which has since
elapsed, it has been memorable for the scenes
which have been enacted within its walls
The public, religious and patriotic meetings
which have been attended in this house, justi
fly the remark of Snow, in the history of Bos
ton, that it is The Sanctuary of Freedom"
The interior of the edifice remains as it has
been since the Revolution. While the British
troops were quartered in 1856, this sacred
temple was desecrated and used as riding
school by the English cavalry.
To prepare it for this unhallowed purpose
the pulpit, pews and western gallery were de
moished-the ground floor was covered with
dirt and gravel-a bar was placed west of the
Milk street door, for the horses to leap over
The eastern galleries were suffered to remain
for the accommodation of spectators, and spir,
ituous liquors were there provided for such as
resorted thither to witness the feats of horse.
manship.
During the winter season, stove was pla-
ced in the church, in which books and pam
phlets from Rev. Mr.. Princes library, which
was kept in the tower of the church were
used for kindlings After the Revolutionary
war, viz: in 1888, it was solemnly re-dedicated
to the worship of Almighty God, by the Rev
Joseph Eckley, pastor Of the church.

Balloon Ascension at Lancaster

On Friday last Mr.. Wise's mammoth bal
loon, Hercules was inflated and at 1 l
o'clock the first topical ascension was made
| by Mr.. Wise, Hery Brown, Artist of Philadel-
phia, A. N. Brenneman and Andrew n. Span
| gler, editor of the Lancaster Gazette The
balloon was permitted to raise to as great a
height as the length of the rope would permit
! about thousand feet. A fresh breze from
the southwest, accompanied with heavy rain,
commenced just as the party started, render
ing their trip far less pleasant thar it would
otherwise have been.
! The rain fell in torrents as the party ascend
ad, rendering further attempt unpleasant un-
til l O'Clock, when a number of ascensions
were made. Two parties of musicians enter
ed the car, and while ascending and descend
ing discoursed delightful music AS rapidly
as circumstances permitted, parties were sent
aloft, until 8 o'clock, at which time Mr.. Wise
and lady, Miss Elizabeth Denton and Master
Charles Wise, took their places in the basket
and in few moments made the most beauti-
full ascension ever witnessed here. The bal
loon rose majestically amidst the cheers of the
crowd and floated in an easterly direction at
a moderate elevation, when Mr.. Wise dischar-
ged quantity of ballast, which caused it to
rise almost perpendicularly with great rapid
ity. It soon entered the clouds and for a
brief space, was hidden from the view of the
spectators.
The descent was beautiful-beyond descrip-
ton and was accomplished in perfect safety
about J miles east of the city. In 40 min
utes from the time of departure, the Kronaut
and his family were seated in their homestead
again. Cor. Phil Ledger.

On the death of Mrs. Elsie Karsa'er, late Of Fremont
Again, we're called Christian friend to mourn,
Who suddenly from our embrace was torn.
One, who, where'er in life her lot was PLACID,
Each station by her piety was graced.
Farewell! thou dear departed, much lov'd one,
Soon didst thou reach the goal-thy setting sun;
And yet, we humbly trust, thy work was done
Accomplished, whep thy early race run.
Thy bright example and thy sterling worth.
Thy modest merit rarely found on earth;
Thy innate kindness and thy sincere love,
Prepaid thee for that blest abode above:
Where we do hope thou from thy grave didst rise,
Escorted to a mansion in the skies.
Thy late companion too-where will he find,
A solace for his deeply wounded mind?
And that dear lovely babe, oh! who will share,
A mothers tender love, mothers care?
Those bereft parents,-how support their grief2
In this affective hour,-where seek relief?
GoD is their hepe-and He will be their stay;
HE gave'-and hath right to take away.
May all her friend s, her virtues initiate
And ELsIE's Christian graces emulate.

DECLINE.

BY MARY LINCOLN CLINTON.
The Autumn Gays have come again
The mournful Autumn days
And summer birds in brighter skies
Are warbling sweeter lays.
The forrest walks are lonely now,
Each note of joy is hushed,
And the old trees faded robes are heaped
Where erst the streamlet gushed.
Farewell to summers golden hours,
And summer birds farewell!
Your sunshine and your melody
Have chained me like spell.
But welcome to thee, Autumn time
Your north wind sweepeth dreaT,
But it hath music in its voice
My heart keeps still to hear.
/ love its wild and plaintive strain
Hove thee, Autumn time
I'm happier in thy saddened hour
Than in the summers prime.
The summer Of my life has fed
Those wild and halcyon days
Aud family through the gathering clouds
Their wanning sunlight plays:
The golden dreams of girihood's hours,
With girlhood's hours have flown,
And the siren voice that held me there
Hath lost its music tone.
Farewell to girlhood's golden hours,
And girlhood's dreams farewell!
The beauty of your sunny time
Will haunt me like spell.
