BosToN, May 6-An immense crowd as
sembled at the Stone Chapel to witness the
delivery of the bodies of the two soldiers to
committee of the Lowell city government.
Gov Andrew, in surrenderng them, made
brief address in substance as tollows:-
He said that twice in the annals OF the mil
itary natriotism of Massachusetts had the 18th
of April been made historic day. Twice
on that day had MiddleseX men poured out
their blood on the altar of our country. 1t
had been given to Lowell, one OF the recent
creations OF Massachusetts enterprise, to lead
in the army which at this period sprung up
in defence of their country. These men
sprang to their duty with alacrity. One day
they were engaged in their ordinary pursuits,
and the next were on their way to scenes
of danger. These bodies had been diligently
sought after by the commonwealth, and
found, and now monumental urns would be
placed over them by their grateful country
men. Massachusetts now surrenders them to
the city of Lowell and it remained for her TO
bear them home, and watch over and care LOT
them as for her best beloved.
Mayor Sargent of Lowell made all appro-
pirate response. The collins were placed III
hearses covered with American flags, the pro-
cession formed, was escorted by the military
and proceeded through several streets to tie
Lowell depot. The crowds in the streets UNI
covered as the funeral cortege passed. Gov.
Andrew and military escort took their leave
at the depot.
In Lowell minute guns were fired and bells
toled. All the mills and many other places
of business were closed, and it is estimated not
less than $4,000 people were gathered to sym
pathize in the solemn and impressive services.
The public and numerous private buildings
were draped with emblems OF mourning. The
funeral exercises took place in Huntington
Hall, Revs. r. W. Clark, G. W. Homer, and
DR.. Cleveland officiating. The remains were
then followed to the cemetery by an immense
procession, escorted by the military, who fired
voleys of musketry as the last farewell to the
heroic dead
OF the drums beaten at the head of the fun
eral escort in Boston, to day, one was beaten
at the battle of Lexington, and the other at
the battle of Bunker Hill.

AFFAIRS IN VIRGINIA.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-Gov. Letcher has
published proclamation say ing that the SOW
ereignty of the commonwealth of Virginia,
having been denied, her territorial rights as
sailed, her soil tLr, atened with invasion by
the authorities at Washington; and every ar
tifce employed which could infiame the peo-
pie of the northern states, it therefore becomes
the solemn duty of every citizen in Virginia
to prepare for the impending conflict. To
this end and for these purposes, and with the
determination to repel invasion, Gov. Letcher
authorizes the commanding general of the
military forces to call out and cause to be mus
tered into service, from time TO time, as public
exigencles may require, such additional vol
unteers as he may deem necessary.
Messengers from Alexandria report that

city, i'll view of the contemplated attack OF the
federal troops. About 400 rebel troops ar
rived on Sunday from the direction of Rich

Potomac they escaped towards Harper's Fer

The Virginia rebels boast of having 5000
men at Ilarper's Ferry, but authentic accounts
fix the number at 3400. A demonstration by
government troops there is momentarily ex-

the machinery Of the armory to Richmond.

protection.
The Catholic population of Baltimore is
composed of two casses-the descendants of
the original settlers and the Irish emigrants.
The first class, furnish a proportion of the
union men as great as the Professionals. And
as to the Irish Catholics, the letter of Arch.

here, has in a remarkable degree withdrawn
