in the College Faculty. conducting the
exercises. Messrs. G. T. Ward, A S.
Dewey, Daniel Roberts, Henry P. Hickok,
Henry Loomis and the Rev. J. Fl. Wor-
cester acted as pall-bearers. A touching
incident of the funeral, and one that
would have deeply affected DIR. Marsh,
had he foreknown it, was the attendance
of the Lincoln Brotherhood in a body
This association of colored men testified
their appreciation of Prof. Marsh's vigor-
ons championship of the rights and hber-
ties of their race, in a way which was
very grateful to the feelings of the family.
The interment was in Green Mount Gene

THE "ADIRoNDACK" on FIRE.-The
steamer Adirondack" took fire Thursday
morning when about half way between
Plattsburgh and Burlington, but the
flames were discovered in season to pre-
vent extensive damage. The fire caught
in the wood work near the "blower''
hatch on the state room deck, and the first
intimation of its presence was the smoke
issuing from the doors opening on the
main deck. The alarm was Immediately
given and the hose attached to the force
pumps, when the flames were .soon extin-
guished.
1t is not known how the fire caught;
but it is thought that some of the passen-
gers might have carelessly dropped
match down the 'blow' hatch. There
were about hundred passengers on board,
aud they were all greatly alarmed until
it was announced that the flames had
been extinguished.

the hopeless inadequacy of our police to

in the dark and wasting time on matters
of slight consequence.
