EDGAR SNOWDEN-
ALEXANDRIA, WEDNESDAY. JAN. "a.

The speech of Mr. j. Il. Tucker, liz the
House of Representatives, yesterday, 10 laVor
of the adoption Of the compromise plan, is
spoken Of as one of the most perfect legal aud
constitutional arguments ever delivered 10 Con
press, and was listened to with interest, even
by those opposed to the bill. ln concludnglt'
he gave ulterance to the generally. expressed
sentiment Of the Southern democrats, when he
said that he supported the bill mot because 1t
exactly fulfilled his preconceved idea about the
tribunal to BE- created Tor counting the electoral
vote, but because he conceived it essential to
the peace and happiness Of the country. An
other remark he made that will receive almost
universal commentator. even among repuOl-
cans was, that "Hhercver elsa the power and de-
cisiop might be rcpcsed, it was clear that 1t had
not been deemed safe to cntrust it to the exist
ing incumbent Of the presidential office. 10
leave TO him thu determination oil an election
ia which he might be candidate, and to sup
pose that it would be safe to cntrast it to him,
was 50 iorcigI to the thoughts OF the trainers
Of the constitution that his name had not been
mentioned liz any OF the clauses concerning the
presidential election.

FUNERAL OF Mr.. FRED. WILLIAM HANE-

from St. James Episcopal church. 1t was
attended by members Of the Tobacco Ex-
change in a body, and by an immense con-
gregation Of the friends Of the deceased,
composed in considerable part OF leading
business and professional men and old citi-
gems. There were q large number Of the
clergy present, and the inmates OF the Old
Ladies' Home, which was established chiefly
through Mr.. HanewinckePs munifcence,
occupied pews near that OF the deceased's
family. Rev. DR.. Peterkin, long a close
and intimate friend Of the family, occupied
q seat with the latter, and the funeral
services Were conducted by Rev. Mr..
Gibson Dr. Peterkin's assistant and BIZ.
jackson, Of Grace church. The services
were very impressive. The burial chant
and the hymns " Nearer, my God, to Thee /"
and "Asieep in Jesus I" were sung with
much sweetness. From the church to the
grave, at Hollywood, long procession fol-
lowed the remains. The last resting place
OF the good and charitable man was covered
with flowers arranged in the richest designs,
prominent among which was cross and
crown OF great beauty. -.s,s,...-...

The Late s1r. Manewinckel.

Messrs. Editors,-My first acquaintance
with Mr.. Hanewinckel was, think, in
1855, and had reference to q distressed Ger
man family, and all my intercourse with
him since, which was frequent, was in con-
nection with one or other form OF charity.
never knew him to decline to give, and
he gave cheeriully and promptly. While
generous to the people Of the " Fatherland, %
bis magnificent public charities to Rich
mond show that his soul was larger than
the great German empire. ~ Il
About year ago the Magdalen Associa-
ton was greatly pressed for means to COM
plete the payment on their property. The
writer met Mr. HaneWinckel Oh the street,
and explained the difficulty, and he replied,
promptly, "!Take me out to!the asylum and
let me see it." On examining the institu-
ton his simple remark was, Prepare the

The beautiful and. elegant g Home for

81. W hen it. is remembered, too, that Mr..
Hanewinckel was In the prime OF life, with
many years in, prospect, and also with a
large family to be provided for, his charities
eyince the highest form Of liberaiity. In
the light OF his sudden and early death, how
we'll does his conduct appear, and how
