THE FUNERAL OF GENERAL LEs-The OBJ
sequies OF General Robert r. Lee took place at
Lexington, Va, on Saturday. At ten O'Clock
the procession formed into line, under Professor
White, of Washington College, and marched to
the chapel. The burial service OF the Episcopal
Church was read by Rev. DR.. Pendleton. No
sermon was preached, in Difference to the ex-
pressed desire or General Lee. After the fune-
raj services were concluded in the chapel the
body was removed to the vault prepared for
its reception, and the concluding services
were re ad by the chaplain. The cortepe then
passed through the library In doubie fle
to where General Lee is entombed and took
q last look at the remains. The marble slab
was then laid upon the vault, and the cere-
monies were at an end. All along the line of
the funeral cortege the windows and porcbes
were crowded with weeping women and children
In all the cities and towns in the South meet
iSgs were held, and proceedings expressive of
s<rrow took place. In some instances funeral
page ants marched through the streets. and an.
propriate euogies were delivered by djstir-
guished men. This was the case in Atlanta
Gs, where 5000 persons were in procession and
le,oc0 present at a meeting at the City Hall. In
baltimore, the flags were at alf-mast, the bells
were tolled, and many Of the stores were closed
ana draped in mourning. In the evening there
was meeting at Masonic Temple.
Inc delegation appointed by the General As
sembly of Virginia to attend the funeral and re-
quest the remains for interment at Holly wood
cemetery at Richmond, received no positive as
surance from the family Of General Lee that
the request Of the State would be granted, but
II is more than probable that it will be conceded
at no distant day.

THE CABINET CHANGES.

Secretary Boutwell, and Commissioner Delano
were clOseted with the President this forenoon
tr some time, and the fact Immediately became
a basis for rumors of all kinds. The successor
to Secretary Cox has not been appointed yet,
bur il is regarded as settled that Mr.. Delano
will be called 10 the place when Gen. Cox re-
tires, which he will DO in about month from this
tin e. As consequI nee various states have been
arranged for the Internal Revenue office.
Among the nimes most prominently men,
toned for the Commissionership, are those of
Deputy Commissioner Douglass, Gen. Cowen,
Supervisor for the southern district of Ohio;
Supervisor Presbrey, OF this district, and ex-
Deputy Commissioner ParneI. OF course,
opinicrs vary as to the probable chances OF
each, but il seems TO re conceded that a
gorous effort will be made on behalf
of Mr.. Douglass on account OF his being Penn
sylvanisn, and the politicians of that State will
dem and the place for one Of her sons. General
Cowen will also be well backed-his influence
being more cosmopolitan in its character. Mr..
ParnelI is understood to be the choice of Secre-
tary Boutwell, for the place in question, while
others think that he will resume his old position
in he office il be cares - do 20. MIR. Pfesbrey
has some active friends also, but they are not
believed to be sufficiently influential to carry
their point.
All the gentlemen named have had large ef-
perience in internal revenue matters, and their
friends claim for each peculiar fitness for the
place, and bring forward plenty of reasons why
their favofite should be successful. As the
change in the Interior Department will not
take place for three or four weeks, the question
Of Mr.. DelarO's successor will probably not be
settled for some time to come. Meanwhile
many new names will doubtless come up, while
the chances of those named above will appar-
emily go up and down each day, or according a.
IumOr may affect the market. Z.

THR NATHAN MURDER.-The New York
Herald thinks that there is stiIfa probability of
the arrest of the murderer of Mr.. Nathan, and
states that the detectives have recently express
ed the belief that the late superintendent OF
police and Captain keEo were from the first
satisfied who committed the murder of Mir
Benz. Nathan, but not possessing the evidence
to convict, they felt ii would be madness to
make an arrest and subject the suspected party
10 public exposure. Two detectives, 1t seems,
left for Europe soon after the murder under
secret instructions from the late superintend-
eht, and returned few days since, and some

TIE ARREST OF DIR. Jacob is by German
papers referred to the discovery of a vast
scheme contemplated by the Edropsan Social
Et pan y, having for Its object the proclama alton
Of republic in every state. The arrest OF the
members Of the Socialist Democrat Committee
OF Brunswick is said TO have led to the discover
OF this plan, the existence Of which was proved
by numerous letters found upon the persons
arrested. Committees formed in all the manu-
"a. turing centres Of Europe, and which main
tanned constant intercOmmunica cation, were
charged with making a Socialist republican
propaganda. The PROCLAMATION of the republic
in France has increased the activity OF these
Committees, which fully believed that in very
short time the Socialists would be at the head o;
the French government. The word was then
passed to all the members OF the league that ia
no case must the honor of the French republic.
