The Reception of Mr.. Peaboays Remains
on Shinhoard


The reception Of the remains of the late
George Peabody on board the iron-cad Monarch.
took place on Saturday, December llth. Al
though it was intended that the proceedings
should be privately conducted, they were at
tended by an interesting demonstration of re-
spect. The remains were accompanied to the
place Of embarkation by Sir Curtis LampsoD.
Chas. Reade, Minister Motley, j. S. Morgan
and III. Somerby.
They were received at the dockby the munic-
ipal authorities of Portsmouth, and the officers
and marines Of her Majesty ship Monarch and
of the United States ship Plymouth Her Ma
jesty's ship Duke of Wellington fred minute
guns during the embarkaton The ships in
the harbor displayed their flags at half mast,
and dipped their ensigns as the Monarch steam
ed out. On the arrival of the coffin on board
the Monarch, Mr.. Motley addressed Captain
Commerell. commander of the ship, as follows:
Sir-The President of the United States hav-
ing been informed of the death of the great
philanthropist, the lamented Mr.. Peabody, at
once ordered ship from the European saua-
dron of the United States to proceed to this
country in order to convey his remains to Amer
ca. simultaneously Her Majesty, the Queen,
being apprised of the sad event, gave orders
that one of Her Majesty ships should be APP
pointed to perform the same Office This double
honor rom the heads of two great nations to =
simple American citizen, was, like his bounty
to the poor of both nations, quite unpreoendent-
ed The President has yielded most cordially
to the wish Of the Queen, and the remains of
Mr.. Peabody are now to be conveyed across the
Atlantic In the British vessel to his native
country to be buried with his kindred, while
the American national vessel will accompany
her as consort on the voyage.
All that was mortal, therefore, of urament-
ed friend was taken this morning from West
minister Abbey, where very rarely before in
history did foreigner Of any nation find sep
ulture, whether temporarily or permanently
and bas been brought to this port. As Minister
of the Republic at the Court Of Her Majesty. /
have been requested by the relative and ex-
ecutors Of Mr.. Peabody, who are now present,
to conGde these, his revered remains, to your
keeping. This duty have now the honor of
fulfilling.
Capt Commerel replied:
MIR. Motley: l accept this sacred trust sir.
in the same spirit in which you have confded
it to my care; and assure you that these re-
mains shall be cared for and guarded bv me
and those around me with jealous interest as
sacred relics of one whose memory will ever be
held dear by the people of my country.

The Old Year.

Ring the bells slowly,
The year is lying
Chilly and cold on his bed.
Lofty and lowly,
Time is still flying;
Silence and list to his tread.
Out on the mountains
Winter is heaping
Snowdrlfts on evergreen leaves:
Down by the fountains,
Frozen while sleeping,
Gently the eveEing star grieves.
Burnish your armor
Quickly and brightly:
Up with new heart for the fight.
Plant your step frmer:
Time touches lightly
Those who keep pace with the right.
