in state in this building until tomorrow
at 5 o'clock, when they will be removed
to his late residence on Upper Main
street, remaining there until Friday at
BPM. when the funeral services will
take place 1t is expected Gov. Hen.
bricks, Senator Mcdonald and
other distinguished men of this state
and the state of Kentucky will be present
at the funeral on Friday. The military
staff at the headquarters OF the army ofthe
South at Louisville, have signitied their
intention to be present at the funeral,
and have been assigned position in the
procession. The civic and military socie.
ties have all signified their intention Of
participating in the ceremonies. General
b. +. Scribner has been assigned the
chief marshalship for the occasion, and
constant applications are being made to
him by societies for assignment in the
line. Invitations have been ex-
tended to the mayors and city officers
of Louisville and Jacksonville,
and to ali military and civil
organizations of these two cities TO join
in paying the last tribute of respect to
the distinguished statesman. No event
in the history Of this city has ever at.
tracted so much attention, as Mr.. Kerr
was universally regarded in the highest
respect by the people. The Republicans
and Democrats alike have laid aside all
partisan feeling and join cordially in
efforts to divest the pageant Friday OF
every appearance of partisanism and
if there is any difference
the Republicans are exerting
themselves to the utmost Every sentl
ment that would have the least appear
ance OF partisanship has been laid aside.
The Republicans have withdrawn an ap.
pointmcnt for public meeting that had
been announced by their State Central
Committee to take place tomorrow, so
tha, there shall not be the least indica-
ton of the party spite which had been
increasing among the people recently
The conduct of the Republicans in this
particular is attracting the favorable oom-
ment of their opponents.
