THE HOMICIDE.-The remains of Lieutepant
Brannan, who was killed yesterday morning
by Policeman Thompson, were embalmed by
Drs. Brown and Alexander, and then arrayed
In his uniform. This afternoon at o'clock
the body will be placed in the coffin and taken
to the office of Capt Johnson, where it will be
kept until the arrival of Lieut.. BIZ father and
friends, who have been telegraphed for The
coffin is very handsome one, and is made of
mahogany, surmounted by a square silver
plate bearing the following inscription: "I.t
Brannan, Go. b, 10th N. J. Vol, Military De-
tective." The handles Of the coffin (three on
each side) are of silver, as are also the tops Of
the screws and nails. The coffin is lined
throughout with white satin.
The fact that collision OF such sort between
two such officers, resulting in the death Of one
should have occurred, continues to be q matter
of surprise TO the friends of both.
Thompson was noted for GOODNESS and
equability of temper; and Brannan was distin-
guished by the same qualities, and in his Off ciaI
conduct had always shown tact and discretion,
and disposition to avoid any clash with the
civil authorities.

A Prophecy.

That Alexander IL. Stevens, Vice Presi-
den. OF the Confederate States, was correct
in declaring that slavery was the imme-
date cause of the late rupture and present
revolution" no sane man can deny. The
mattor was better stated, perhaps. by Mr..
Sprat, in letter addressed to Judge Per.
kins, member of tho Montgomery Coz
gress from Louisiana, which said
1.-THE contest is not bettVcen the North and
South as geographical sections, for bet,Seen
such sections merely there can be no contest I;
nor bet,Oeen The people Of The North and the

On breaking il to pieces at home il was

considered terrible disclosure OF cupid.

TO the store, entered in great excitement,
bearing the ;allow and exclsiming:-
