The coffin was a very neat and pretty one, resem-
bling rosewood and silver mounted. Upon inquiry
as 10 whose body It contained we were surprised
to hear that II WAS that Of thu rebel Captain w. l..
Davis, OF the Thirtieth N. Z. regiment, whose
death 10 reported through our columns. We can
not understand why the body Of n rebel should be
carried to the grave with a superior coffin, while

their lives In this glorious cause are buried with
