The order mastering out certain Msjor

The name of General Miller hss been

A number of other Generals are to be in

Gen. Grant at Home.

The Western papers give detailed &C.
counts Of General Grants splendid and
touching reception Dy mis- felloW-townsmen
at Gslena on Friday. On his arrival he
was conducted in procession through the
streets to Main street, where a platform
was erected, and the speech ch-making-not
by General Grsnt-took place.
Close to the platform was magnificent
triple archI entirely spanning Main
street, trimmed with flags and eVergreens,
and crowned with thirty six of the loveliest
young ladies that ever grsced the earth or
broke heart These houris were dressed
in white, 6eeey ss the silver lining of 3
Summer cloud, and displayed those other
hues necessary to the production of the
glorious tricolor. These young ladies
sang divinely, rendering HAuld Lang
|Syne with remarkably good affect, and
other pieces with good tssta They flung
bouquets and glances at the hero of the day,
nearly smOthering him with floral offer
'ings.
On one side of the arch were the words
"Hsil to the Chief who in triumph ad-
VAnces," and scroll-work containing the
names Of memorable bsttle-felds. Upon
the opposite side were the words: HWel-
OULu0 OD- oitison,n With moro scroll
work and names of battle fields.
Further down the street was another
arch, displaying the words: "GeuersJ,
that sidewalk Is built" And so it is.
Many Of our readers doubtless remember
an anecdote told of General Grant some
months ago, when he declined to accept q
nomination for the PreEdency.
He Is reported TO have said that there
was but one Office that he would sccept,

and if he ever got that he would have q
sidewalk from his house to the depot. Ga-
lena took the hint and the sidewalk has
just been completed.
An informal reception Of citizens by
General Grant at the Custom House in the
evening, and the ball at the DeSoto House,
ended the interesting ceremonies, and the
day expired in flood of light from bon

The -CIOslnr kc.ne.

The closing scene in the life of Governor
Brougb, as described 70 US by an eye-Wit-
ness, are full of interest and psthos. On
Monday evening st about nine O'Clock, the
Governor awakened from the insensibility
in which he had lain for some days, and
at the request Of his family, who gathered
around his bedside, Surgeon General Barr
informed him that all which human skinI
could do for him had been attempted, and
in vain, and that now he was in the
hands of almighty God. He could not
live forty-eight hours. The Governor was
greatly shocked at this announcement, and,
looking General Barr in the face, desired
HIM 70 repeat what be had said. Genera
B arr again stated that he had not forty
eight hours TO live. The Governor thenI
requested that sll except his family andl
g enersl Barr should leave the room. After
this had been done, he eonversed calmly
and nationally with his family for some
time on private family affairs.
Turning 10 General Barr, and apparent
ly addressing his remarks more psrticu-
larly to him, the Governor proceeded 20
speak of bis religious views and hopes. BE
said in substance that he was no theologian, :,
and had never made any profession of
religion. He had, however, always endeav-
ored to live honestly and uprtghtly in bis
relations with his fellow-men, and he hoped
and believed that he had so done. He
confessed that he had sinned great
ly, although he denounced as false the
slAnderous rumors of his drunkenness and
licentiOusness which had been circulated
But, though he acknowledged that he had
been 9 great sinner in the sight of God, he
stated that every act Of his in dischargiDg
his duties as Governor had been performed
with the strictest conscientiousness, and
with prsyerful regard to his responsibility,
Lot only 10 the country, but to God. BE
also stated that he had never gone to bed
at night for twenty years without first
praying to God for forgiveness and protec-
tion, and that he died penitently, scknowl-
edging his sins and trusting in Christ for
pardon. As be spoke, the Governor raised
his eyes, and, IS though death lent supernal
keenness TO them, exclaimed that he saw
the Mediator standing on the right hand
of the Father, making intercession for his
sins. He concluded with the emphatic
declaration, several times repeated: 81 die
happily and gLorioitsLy" The scene was
deeply affecting, and at the close of it the
Governor put his arms around the neck Of
General Barr and with deep emotion
thanked him for his care and attention
expressing perfect satisfaction with hi
medical treatment. He then took his fare
well of his family. About midnight he re-
lapssd into insensibility, which continued
without intermiEion until his death.
