unerOl Ceremonies of New Orleans
ARrtyr-RemarISs by Governor Bull
lock and a Number of Distinguished
DiVines.
BosToN. August ga crowded congregation
assembled in fremont Temple to.Hay, at the
funeral services of the Rev. Mr.. Horton, martyr
to the Presidents New Orleans policy. Large
numbers OF clergymen were present, with high
state officials. Governor Bullock spoke OF Hor-
ton as a martyr In the cause OF freedom and the
rights OF man. Himself innocent and unpro-
voking, he was abandoned by the Government
TO the violence Of mob. The insatlate spirit
oil slavery, surviving ITS own nominal destruc-
tion, by the Constitution of the land, has been
permitted by Federal authority to break forth
with new violence, without even the preteXt of
excuse which used to be pleaded when slavery
had legal existence.
If this state OF things Will not quicken our
sensibility and conscience, be knew not what
would. The blood Of Horton cries and soemny
appeals to us to be faithful in the cause of the
rights of human mature, for which he lald dow
his life. DR.. Eddy said that the sacrifice OF this
martyr 10 principle should invoke spirit of
stern hostility to wrong-dolng and lawlessness
in the land. The Rev. DR.. True said such out
RACES must serve as warning that, unless the
people rise in their strength to reconstruct the
Southern States on the principles OF absolute
justice, they will leave open wide abyss which
Will in the future prevent the advancement of
liberty. We are losing all we gained by the
war, owing to the Presidents policy. The blood
OF the Union martyrs was shed in valn unless the
peop protect themselves by earnest opposition
to the Executive. Our very safety is at stake.
The Rev. DR.. King said the voice ot the North
must be heard in tones that would cause these
devils to tremble. Neither Southern churches
nor Southern States were yet in frame betting
reconstructon. This riot was not an eXcep-
tional outbreak, but true expression of tue
murderous spirit of the South. No remonstranCe
against it had come from any Southern city. 1t
is the fruit of the unwise haste and cruel
leniency of the Executive Already again free
