[Athenian Correspondence of GalignanLl
One of the most imposing ceremonies
ever witnessed in this city occurred at the
obsepuies of the four foreigners recently
massacred by the brigands. The English
men Herbert, Secretary of Legation, Vim
er, and Lloyd were inferred from the Pro
testant Chapel, and Court Albert de Boyl,
Secretary of the italian Legation from the
Roman Catholic Cathedral. The remains
were accompanied to the grave by their
Majesties the King and Queen; the chief
aides-de-camp of the counts the venera.
bic Archbishop of the Greek Church and
his deacons.; the members of the Greek gov
ernment; the Diplomatic corps; the Off.
GERS of the army and navy, and all the
prominent persons of the capital, including
many ladies' About 5000 persons were
collected between the church and the buri'
al-place The King, in a long military
cloak and helmet cap with feathers, walk
ed Immediately behind the coffins, which
were borne upon the shoulders of marines,
and covered with the national flags A
large body of the National Guard, with
the band playing dirges, preceded the pro-
cession to the place of interment, Yester'
day the decapitated heads of seven bri-
gands, killed by the soldiers during'the late
encounter, were displayed, strung in line
on a scafiolding in the Camp de Mars at
Athens, where crowds went out to see
them. Besides the gendarme shot by the
brigands at the seizure, about thirty sold
iers lost their lives on the final attack upon
the outlaws. Many of these soldiers leave
their families unprovided for. A subscrip'
for their relief has been initiated by the
diplomatic corps.

THE aEoReIA TNVEsrIeArION.

The report of the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee on the matter of the investigation
of alleged attempts to bribe Senators was
made to the Senate last week, accompanied
by a voluminous copy of the evidence.
The whole thing may be summed up in the
statement that it does not appear that any
Senator was offered or received money, but
it does appear that Governor Bullock paid
Forney, of Chronicle, several thousand
dollars above what would be considered a
fair price for printing speeches, pamphlets
&c, and otherwise made prohigate use
of money to the extent of about $4,000
more among the Washington lobbyists.

proper meansiwere brought to bear to infu'

amendment to the Georgia bill. and cen

people generally. OF the three supreme

FRENCH AND AMERICAN ELEC-
TIONS.

In speaking of the late elections in
France, the New York Tribune says:
"Of the actual result of Sundays bal
loting there has never been any doubt
Elections under Napoleon can never go
against the Government. But ne exer-
tions have been spared to secure a grand
majority that by It's moral effect should
depress the party Of freedom and strength
en- the foundations Of that throne which
awaits the Fourth Napoleon-if Fourth
Napoleon there is ever to be- Eugenie on
her knees before the altar, and battahons
on guard around the polls, alike besought
Providence for an affirmative vote. Po-
lice spies filed the air with the horrors of
imaginary plots. Republicans by the
score We're thrown into Jail on fictitious
charges, liberal newspapers were suppress
ed on the eve of election, liberal soldiers
were drafted off to Algeria, and all the
employed to fill the timid with fear of
avowing democratic sentiments, and the
selfish and uncertain with dread of soci-
aist designs which had no existence"
This is no doubt well and truthfully
told and shows Just what Grant and com
pany are trying to fix up orthe American
people, and in which movement they have
really made some progress. They expect
the negro element to assist them greatly in
thework Our bonded aristocracy, paying
no taxes-our- land grabbers in and out Of
Uongress-our numerous military Gener-
ais and other officials enjoying larger sala-
ries than the same grade in France-the
1900 National Banks with their immense
profits and power and an army of subsid-
ized-followers,-an army of officials of all
kinds swarming all over the land-these
and more are the engines operating to
fasteR upon this country, our Lincoln,
Grant, Napoleon tyranny.
Alas, where is that happy, proud
America, in which. 'the hghtnings of

ExTRAVAGANCE OF THE ADMINS
TRATION.

In the debate in the House, on the 10Th
on the Naval Appropriation bill, Mr.. Beck,
of Kentucky, submitted some facts and
figures of lhe extravaganza of this Admin
istration that are simply astonishing He
said he was prepared to show that the Ma
Wy Department had expended, within the
fiscal year, thirty-eight millions ofdollars,
making an excess of expenditures over
the appropriation of twenty-one million of
dollars. This surplus amount was used
from the proceeds of sales of Government
property. In the Treasury Department,
there were sixteen hundred more employees
than the law allowed, being an increase of
six hundred over the illegal excess in
April, 1869 Two millions of dollars near
ly were required to pay these yearly sala'
ries The pretense, said he, that the Gov.
ernment is being economically administer
ed is a fraud and cheat

THE sAME OLD SNAKE.

The minds Of that class of persons who
have been once corroded by the gangrene
of copperhead treason to the Union, are
affected with distress at the bare idea of
doing honor to the memory of-the dead
heroes of the war. The Grand Army or
ranization, which is made up Of living,
surviving soldiers, which looks to the
care of the widows and children of their
dead comrades which organizes the sym
pathy of the country in doing honor to
the memory of their dead companions is
particularly obnoxious to the rebel sym
pathizing vision though in truth 1t Is nell
ther the solemn ceremonies of Decoration
Day. nor vet the Grand Army of the Re
public which ails the copperhead reptile,
but it is the sting Of remorse the gnaw-
ing of his own conscience.-Rep. and
Rep.
The above is only another splurge of
our 'loyal" and pay-triotic neighbor-
This sort of stuff is dirt cheap and is be-
coming daily more so. Mr. Hartzell, it
may be proper to state in this connection,
was not himself in the "service"
even squirrel or plumber hunter of silver
ware. During the war he was occupying
the Canton Post Office and so continued
for some time thereafter, during the John
son administration, extending considera-
bic favor to President Johnson. Our
neighbor was at last compelled to vacate
for one armed soldier-much against his
will and much to his disgust at Grant,
Amber, Sherman, and company
Now we suggest to neighbor HArtzell
to vary his fippant delicate terms, such
as 'the same old snake"-'corroded by
the gangrene of oopperhead treason
"copperhead reptile" &c. Such slang may
do among fish women and fshy, pot house
politicians Our neighbor ought to re-
member that many persons distinguish
gentleman from low blackguard, by ths
language used. Chesterfield, (high au-
thority,) we believe says something Of the
sort.
Again, it is only bad cause that needs
propping by continuing to sowill will and
hatred. It is not the tr7te gospel-but
seems to be the radical article and much
in favor with our neighbors of the Rep
and Rep.
