We find the following account of the
private funeral of Colonel Fletcher Web

fathers remains, in last weeks issue OF
the Plymouth Rock:
The tomb at Mansfield once again opens
wide its portals TO receive the last of the
sons of the great eXpounder."
The funeral of Colonel Fletcher Webster
took place in Marsfeld, on Wednesday, Sep
tember 10. The body was brought down
from Boston, in a richly caparisoncd hearse
with four horses, by way of bingham and
South Shore. Several coaches conveyed
his Boston friends from the Kingston depot,
while a large assemblage gathered from
the neighboring towns. Reverend Mr.. Al
den, the village pastor, conducted the serv-
ices; the body resting OF his fathers writ
ing table, in the library, according to his
dying request. A large procession fol-
lowed his body to the tomb, where the
coffin was deposited with the family whom
a nation mourns.

statesman's body, was opened, and the
metallic cover of the glass removed. How
were the feelings of those personal friends
stirred within them to find those lineamcnts
and features which 10 man ever looked
upon to forget, retaining the same color
and impression, natural as when ten years
ago they gave him up to the grave!
The eyes were more Bunken; but the
heavy shadow beneath the brovs were
always there in life. Even in death, and
for a decade the captive of grave, that
kingly presence inspired the same deep
reverence and speeohIess awe as when in
the living temple of his matchIess mind.

81 forgot all else, and cannot tell you any.

velvet pail with its rich embroidery was in
perfect preservation, although deprived of
it's primitive gloss.
In silence the lid was dropped and the box
recosed. Farewell thou great departed
Earth's fond communion with thee is DER
No more shall human eye behold that face
over which once flashed the light and
shade OF that Imperial mind" Rest, noble

A GANG of coffin robbers have been de
tected at Weston, Somerset county, Eng.
land The leader was the sexton of the
church, and the party were accustomed to
open vaults. break cofins with tools, cut
out the lead lining, and take this lead with
the coffin handles and plates TO sell as old
metal at Bradford. The wood of the coffin
and the homes of the inmate were broken
up and slowed away in the further corner
of the vault. This had been going on for
over three years and at least 81 collins in
cluding those of some of the most prom
inent people of the neighborhood, noble
men and others, have been thus outraged.

The President on the Late
Elections

Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, made

ing, in the report of which we notice the
following statements
The other day called on the President
with an earnest Douglas Democrat of
Massachusetts. Tho news had Just come to
the President of these defeats OF his sup
portcrs in those States and the President
seemed bowed down, when the intelligence
of the defeat of our armies in the field came
upon him, and he said: 81 confess that
am grevcd at the results of these elections
This intelligence will go to Europe; it will
be construed there as n condemnation of
the war; it will go into the land of the re-
bellion, and will encourage the leading
rebels and nerve the arms of the rebel sol
diers fighting our men in the field. 1t is
