THR honoH paid to TIE Confederate
dead ct Emwood y erday, iudica-
ted that time nisfortaa and persecu-
lions have only increased and intensi-
fed the devotion Of the Southern
people to their slain sons. Interesting
as the ceremonies have heretofore
been, and large as the attendance has
been hitherto, the ceremonies have
never been so interesting0r the crowd
so large as that Of yesterday. The
immense e0uoourse OF people and the
general manifestation Of sympathy
and respect for the dead, showed that
our people viii never forget the glory
and grandeur OF the late struggle, nor
the deeds Of the men whose heroic
achievements won the admiration OF
the world. The ceremonies lasted
from eight O'Clock ia the morning
until sundOwn. While there WerenOt
more than six or eight thousand peo-
pie on the ground at any n time,
we feel safe in saying thatnO less than
twenty thousand people visited the
cemetery during the day. There was
a steady and continuous stream pour
ing in and out Of the different gates.
Carriages, buggies and street cars
loaded with living compact masses,
dashed along the thOrougbhres, while
on the roads were ladies, men and
children walking singly or in little
groups, but all travelling to a com
mon destination. Every pilgrim bore
a floral Offering. The ladies in charge
Of the decoration, headed by Mrs.
Cummings, performed their duties
with fidelity and displayed a taste
which was highly commended by all.
The full particulars of the eommemo-
ration services will be found in our
columns; and We cannot close
this hasty notice Of these sad yet i'm
pressive memorial rites without con-
graduating the orator Of the day, L.
B. Mcfarland, Esq, on his success.
He is young in years, but the field
was wide, the theme inspiring and
the occasion gave ample scope for his
elOquence and genius, and he was
equal to his opportunities. We pub
fish Nj. McFarland's Grafton in full,
and perusaI Willshoy that his style
unites a severe simplicity with the
requisite warmth Of fancy and atau-
ence Of dictiOn. He is a young man
of rare gifts, and we believe this first
great effort Of his life has made for
him a name which is destined to
achieve a brilliant fame.

A Wisconsin paper contains the fol
lowing good story: One who does not
believe ia immersion iOr baptism was
holding a prOtracted meeting, and-One
night preached on the subject Of bap-
tism. In the course of his remarks,
he said that some believe il necessary
to go down into the water, and come
up out of it, to be baptised. But this
he claimed to be tallacy, for the
proposition 'intO" OF the Scriptures
should be rendered differently, as It
does not mean into at all times.
Moses, " he said, Eve are told,
went up into the mountain and the
1 Savior was taken into a high noun
tain, etc. Now, we do not suppose
either went into a mountain, but unto
it. So with going down into the
water; it means simply going down
/ close by or near to the water, and be-
ing baptised in the ordinary way by
sprinkling or pouring" BE carried
this idea out fully, and in due season
closed his discourse, when an invita-
ton was given TO any one 50 disposed
to rise and express his thoughts.
Quite a number of his brethren arose
and said they were glad they had
been present on this occasion: that
they were well pleased with the sound
sermon they had just heard, and felt
their souls greatly blessed.
Finally, a cOrpulent gentleman. of
TeutOuic extraction, a stranger to an.
arose and broke the silence that was
almost painful, as follows:
"Mister PREACHER, L is so glatI wash

OUR readers viii remember that
some days ago we published an &C.
couut Of the Observation-Disclosures
y0u" compact Of the Banner, Of Nash
vile, the Courier Journal, OF Louis
vile, and the Avalanche, Of Memphis.
Here i 81 rich sample Of it, which we
copy from the BErusr, Of Friday;
The Memphis AuGlmlche puts 8
timely ice pUulnce upon the feverish
zeal OF well-meaning but foolish Hot
spurs, whose impetuOus f0llies, by the
inspiration of more designing but less
honest minds, always do the most
damage 10 any cause. "Our avoWed
enemies" remarks the AUQ2alcbe,
t'we can watch; their attacks we know
how 20 meet. But the reckless, i'm
Practicable friend, who in his zeal to
serve Us is constantly increasing our
difficulties, is more to be dreaded than
s. dozen avOWed, malignant enemies
Just here is the trouble in Southern
politics. The gallant Democratic pa
pens with zeal beyond knowledge
are honest in their desire to serve
their people; but their stupid blum
uers and general impracticability rem
der them, i1 effect, the strongest, most
potent allies of those who desire to
crush the South beneath their feet"

passengers over a long line Of rail-
road, arise from the differences be-
tween manaqem Of connecting lines,
who, Ike al other men, have their
jealousies, their personal purposes
and selfish ambition. Freights which.
should be sent through without delay
are switched of and rot on the road
side, perh-p 5, because some regulation
of some short road has not been COM
piled with, or more probably because
the short line has failed to provide
motive power to do the business the
longer ones are able to provide. Pas
sengers are made to lose a day be-
cause a connecting train Is a
few minutes behind. These are
a few Of the public evils incl
dent to the multiplicity Of inde-
pendent lines. The roads themselves
suffer from TOO much management;
and too much money is paid to need
less officials, who, instead Of being an
advantage, are an obstruction to sue
cess. Practically it has been found
that the consolidation Of lines Of road
leading into and feeding one another,
has power Of immense advantage to
all parties-the public and the roads
have invariably been gamers. A
consolidation Of all the lines, from
Memphis to Norfolk, becomes an i'm
perative necessity. We would then
have a great through trunk line, Civ
ing outlet to our products to the At
lantic and thence to Europe, indepen-
dent Of all other cities and places. 1t
is a proposition which would place Us
in the front rank of Western cities
creating a central and important mart
for the exchange OF cotton and other
products for the manufactures Of Eu-
rope.
The terminus of the Southern Pacific
railroad is in Eastern Texas, and
thence ali connections to the East
ward must be made by companies
not subsidized or aided by the general
government. As we are all aware,
several combinations are pushing for-
ward lines tOsecure the hrst connection
and receive the flood Of traffic and
travel from the Pacific. If the con-
sohdation referred to be effected it will
then become the deep and fixed in
terest of the consolidated line TO see.
that the road from Memphis to Texas
is at once prepared to share and COM
pete with others for the rich business
arising from trade with the West. In
any sspectin which the matter can be
viewed Memphis and all parties in
terested viii be benefited, and we
therefore earnestly hope that the rail-
road managers and owners viii at
once enter into negotiation for COnsOL
idation. Consolidate the railroads,
and build the steamships, and we will
then have begun to take care Of our
selves. There is a vast amount Of life
in this old land yet, and it only
awaits proper direction to develop
strength and power. We
want unselfsh men Of prudence, |
sagacity and Judgment to guide the
railroad interests both East and West.

TOMORROW our German fellow
citizens viii hold their Maifest at
James Park. The programme
VIII be found in another column, from
which it viii be seen the occasion
promises 10 be one of great interest.
We trust our citizens generally VIII
turn cut and contribute all they can
10 give Eest and interest 20 the day.
The celebration tomorrow viii be of
such a character that not only
Germans, bat Americans, Irishmen
and even Frenchmen can par
ficipate in with feelings OF
good fellowship. The manner in
which the Germans have con-
Quoted their recent peace iubilees
throughout the country, has com.
msnded the admiration OF the nation.
Peace celebrations were held in New
York, PittsbUrg, Louisville and other
important cities during the past week,
and although they were large and en-
Jhusiastic, they were conducted with
great prudence and a scrupuIous re-
gard for the feelings Of others. In
none Of the speeches made was
there a single allusion calculated
10 wound the feelings Of French
men. Such msgnanimity in the
hour Of victory is indeed com
mendable. These German demon
STATIONS over the return Of peace are
in keeping with the German charac-
ler, for the natural attitude and disp0-
siu0n Of the Germanic race Is pro-
found peace. They have Ia their
public meetings hailed with gladness
and JOY the return of peace to their
Faderland; but the scrupul0Us regard
they have exhibited for the pride OF
Frenchmen shows that they are in
possession OF that lofty maguanimity
which in the hour Of triumph knows
now TO respect the feelings Of g van
pushed but noble adversary. Ia the
United States the TeutouIc race have
not heretofore occupied that elevation |
10 which they were entitled; but they
rapidly assuming that exalted po-
silon 10 " hich their historic fame and
sturdy virtues entitle them. The
world begins to appreciate their ge-
Mus, their law-abiding disposition,
their hxedness Of purpose and stabili-
~ of character which enables them 10
constitute good citizens and TO accom-
pll-h grand and enduring results. The
Ees mans are destined 90 occupy still
more prominent place in thecivI and
political affairs Of the American Gov
meuL and our institutions viii suffer
no deuIment from the power, inAu

crowded house. Friday is set apart as q
complimentary benefit to Mr. Wyndham.
and if his popularity is insufficient to insure
large attendance, the attraction offered
will be sure to do so. Watts Philips
romantic drama, 'sCamilla's Husband will
be given, for the first time in New Orleans,
with the whole strength of this splendid
company in the cast. 1t is grand story,
finely worked ont by skillfully chosen stage
effects and admirably written dialogue, as
well as finely drawn characters.
There was a rumor circulating in the the
atre tonight, of the possible Encouragement
of this company for another week, for the
purpose of producing Tom Taylor's capital
comedy of Rocks Ahead" This is piece
which requires not only admirable acting
and strong company of talented artists,
hut it also entails some fine scenic and
stage effects. The latter, it is said, had
been prepared early in the season for the
production of the piece, but other business
has interviewed and prevented this intention.
We trust, however, that rumor is in this
instance true, and that we shall be enabled
to witness this, one of the best and most
amusing productions of the modern stage.
The many difficulties it presents could not
be overcome, and the many fine points it
contains could not be properly filed by a
company less efficient than the Wyndham
Comedy Company; and should the manage
ments of the artists and of the theatre agree,
we may confidently expect performance
remarkable for excellence and "a positive
success with the public.
