WHAT BECAME OF LAzARUS.-The evangelist
does not tell what became of Lazarus after he
was raised from the dead, but the legends of
the Catholic Church say that he became
Christian preacher and the Jews set him adrift
in a boat which was blown to the southern
coast of France. Lazarus evangelical the Gauls
and became first bishop of Marseiles. He was
put to death by pagans, and his bones were
taken to Autun in Burgundy, where they have
been sacredly preserved. Recently the bishop
of Marselles has attempted to recover them to
be placed in the cathedral at Marseilles, but the
Catholics at Autun would not give them up.-
A compromise has, however, been affected. and
the bones of one arm has been surrendered to
the Marselese. The Bishop of Marseilles was
delighted with this magnanimous gift he pub
lished express letters to announce this ioyful
news to his clergy, and organized magnificent
procession to precede the arm of St. Lazarus
The soldiers of the Italian regiment marched at
the head of the cortege, beating drums, ard
100000 persons filled the streets
Rssy~ The Assembly bill abolishing the office
of Adjutant General was defeated. We have
for several years believed the Office unnecessary.
butif its aboishment at this time was sought to
be converted into stigma upon Gen. Kibbe. as
seems to have been the case, then we are glad
of the action Of the Senate, for we believe the
incumbent has performed the duties of the posi-
ton with signal ability.
