despotes s'ils rehechissaient sur les
suites du despotisme. Les auteurs des
lois de reconstruction en- ont-ils bien

avant 10 guerre, lie noir n'etait rien ct
le blanc etait tout. Get etat de chooses

Telles sont, nous le repetoDs, les ap-
parcnces, mais non les realities.
Les realities tromperont singuliere-
ment les combinaisons du peuple du

ne compte que quatre millions d'indivi-
dus, dominera demain souverainemcnt
ct neutralisera huit mil lions dc blancs,
Ia minorite commandera q Ia majorite,
lie tiers gouvernera les deux tiers. Or,
le meme phenomena Sc passera ensuite

Sud frappcront la porte du Congress
ct seront admis au cGur dc Ia place.

obseauies of the Late VIM, H. enliland

The funeral Of the late Wm. Il. Gilliland
yesterday morning was very largely attended.
All classes Of our citizens were anxious to pay
the last tribute of respect to one whose life in
every public and private station had been so
blameless..
Before the hour appointed for the funeral
the orphan children and the Hibernian Society
met at his residence, and the children and the
members filed slowly around the coffin and
gazed sadly on the face Of their friend and
benefactor. The deceased wore rlore youth
ful aspect than in life; the burrows drawn by
age had disappeared from his face, and he ap-
peared like one who had just fallen asleep. The
funeral services were held at the Central
Church. The following gentlemen acted as
pail bearers: VIM. G. Bee, Charles T. Lowndes,
4. D. Caldwell, William McBurney, s. s..
Howell, Geo. W. Williams. James Il. Taylor,
John F. O'Neiu, Charles q. Simonton, William
Ravenel.
On arriving at the church the Hibernian So
ciety were assigned seats Immediately in front
of the pulpit the body of the church being oc-
cupied By the friends of the deceased. The
south gallery was occupied By the orphan
children, who were arranged in order by their
superintendents. The opposite gallery was
assigned to the colored people, and large
number of old family servants andmembers OF
the church were in attendance. DR.. W. c.
Dana, the pastor of the church, delivered
funeral discourse, in the course of which he
dwelt in appropriate language on the many
virtues of the departed, on his long and useful
life and tranquil death.
On the conclusion Of the services, the re-
mains were placed in the hearse, which was
followed By long procession, including the
Hibernian Society and the Orphans, to Flynn's
churchyard, the family place of interment.
The main door of the Hibernian Hall was
festooned yesterday with Grape, and the usual
election for officers was postponed out of res
pect to the memory Of the late President Of
the Society.
