FUNERAL OF Cardinal wiseman.

~ IA
Full accounts of the obsequies of Cardi-
nal W1sEMAN are published in the late
European papers. The funeral procession
was three miles in length, and there were
nearly six hundred carriages in it, While
the body was lying in state during the
2" Solemn Mass of Requiem,p at More
fields Church, there were many of the
most distinguished people of England,
both Catholic and Protestant, present.

{ have never known good man SO misun-
derstood by the public That misunderstand-
ing must, no donbt, to some extent be attrib-
uted to his own character. i .
This man, who was supposed to be 80 stately,
and SO selfsustained, was the ehyest, the
most modest, the most bashful man have
ever met. He had the shyness of boy with
the bashfulness of q maiden. His tenderness
and his benignity were perpetually manifested
IN his respect Tor women and his love for chill
'dren. never knew man speak of others.
even when they deserved severity, with 60
much measured tenderness. With his large
Charity was united the moet profound human
ity. A greater humility in so great man It
has never been my lot to witness. Another
remarkable trait In his character was, that for
the misfortunes of others, while he gave
them his deepest sympathy, he never shed Q
tear; but at the mention Of any great act, Of
anything heroic or magnanimous- tears at
once sprang to his eyes.

Not Yet settled.

Notwithstanding the reliable " information
vouehsafed by the PIONEER, we are safe in say.
ing that the appointments for the various pub
Lie Offices in the State, have notyet been defin-
itely determined Minneapolis alias.
Our contemporary was never more un-
safe than in saying that the appointments
in this State have not yet been definitely
determined on. We have reason to believe
that some of the appointments have been
made, and that time will show the correct
ness of our programme. We may have
been at fault in one or two instances-not
more. The heads of some of the old off,
GERS are already of, but they don't know
it. As the Irishman said of the headless
turtle, they care dead but are not sem

A friend who has Just returned from Ar
kanssa has given rs an incident which 90
Cured very recently near Little Rock,
that shows how little reliance can be
placed on the Union sentiment Of the peo-
pie Of that State. 1t was known that
bands Of rebel troops had been engaged
in gathering up oonscripts near the city,
and it was the desire of the military au-
thorities to capture or destroy these bands.
A man who had been counted among the
Unionists reported himself to the COM
mander of the post, and stated that be
knew the secret camp of one of these
guerilla bands, and would conduct force
to it. he manifested the utmost hatred
to the guerillas and an earnest desire for
their determination. So force was sent
out under the command Of q captain, with
the protested Unionist as a. pilot. Moth
ing in his conduct excited suspicion, and
he conducted the force some thirty or
forty miles. Coming to a narrow ravine,
and when partly through it, he wished to
go ahead little distance to reconnoitre |;
the commander gave his consent, and
halted his men to rest. It was complete
ambush. The guerillas were on all sides,
and at a signal poured into the Union
troops a most deadly volley. There was
no escape, and nearly all the whole COM
mand were killed, Anew crawled through
the woods, and made their way to Little
Rock with the story of the massacre. The
conduct of this treacherous guide is fair
representation of the Union sentiment in
Arkansas .-
