Gen. Lane, who murdered jenkins, in

ToRCH-LIGHT Procession OF THE A. .. Nj.
Ancient Order of Mystic Cnevaliers last
Monday night was novel and interesting
affLir--such an one as is very rarely seen in
Nashville. The torch-light procession was
about half a mile in length. and marched
through the principal streets OF the city, with
Slow aud measured tread, to the sound OF
solemn music. Each member OF the order
wore "A white gown. and a black cowl, and
bore in his hand lighted torch, the whole pre-
seutng grote-que aud rather ghostly appear
ance. One of them carried il skeleton upon
his shoulder, aud al Intervals along the line
were banners. aud a Transparency or two, and
near the 'ntre was pail or bier, ON which
were mystic devices and Greek and Latin
mot toes. At the head OF the procession was
a gong borne by two OF the order, aud on
This he Chief marshal struck his commands,
which were repeated along the procession by
The a. sistant marshals, who carried small
bells for the purpose. Throughout the march
of the procession, which continued for about
lDFSe hours not u worn was spbhtu ny u

which nothing seemed capable of breaking,
-ugg,stcd to one of the spectators the idea
tina, \. o. NJ. g. probably meant An Ogtuliy
Mute Crolcd.
No parade Of any kiad has ever created
more curiosity in Nashville than that of the
A. o. VI. C. When the procession crossed
CedAr street going up Cherry, large mum
br or spectators thronged the sidewalks,
and 10y the time it reached Broadway, the
crowd had augmented To such al extent that
The procession could scarcely make its way

bat If we take the Uaion and americans esti-

there were at least five thousand. Five hua-
