General Grant Among the Egy ptian
Ruins.

Ruins.
We give to-day another instalment of our
correspondents graphic description of Cen
eral Grants journey up the Nile, which
bids fair to be the most remarkable part Of
a very remarkable tour. TO read Of our ex-
Presidents reception at Luxor, where he
found his own portrait and that Of his sue
cessor in the Presidency, is like reading a
page out of the arabian Nights, though
the presence of a couple of American flags
mingled with branches of date palm brings
ones mind down to everyday life and the
dollar of our daddies. The Oriental hos
pitality manifested by those in author
ity, the pleasant illusions to Mrs.
Grant, who will not allow the fierce
Hassan to beat the girls who carry the water
pitchers, the learned enthusiasm of the
Khedives representative and the particu-
larity Of the Marquis about luncheon, afford
delightful glimpses of life and character.
It seems odd, however. that the man who
talked with Pemberton at Vicksburg and
accepted Lees surrender in the little village
of Appomattox should be riding ashambling
pony over the sands of Egypt, visiting the
ruins of Thebes and resting in the shadow of
the statue of Memnon. The General is also
a climber, and scales walls as readily as the
naval officers in his company, and one won-
ders what his army would have thought
of such acrobatic feats. But the ex-Presi-
dent believes in doing thoroughly whatever
he undertakes, consequently climbs when
it is necessary to find what he came to see
Then we find him at Thebes and at Karnak
reading inscriptions made thousands of
years ago and annoyed by the defacements
of tourists. The typical American crops up
twice in this letter-one as the manufac-
turer of antiquities and another who has
daubed his name and address in black paint
all over the ruins of ancient Egypt. 1t is
pleasant to know that his name is Powell
Tucker and that he halls from New
York. He is. something to be proud
OF, is this Tucker, and his busi-
nesslike method of taking n sailor to
climb the monuments and besmear his busi-
ness card on these remnants Of an extinct
civilization shows how readily the Yankee
mind grasps the possibilities and hastens
to improve them. Long live Tucker and
his pot of paint, for we now know who
originated the many scenic improvements
that have been made to our Palisades, the
rugged walls of Niagara River, and the
echoing canyons of Colorado and Nevada
Tuckerism in the East and the West is
something to be grateful for.

Death of Ex-senator Wade.

The death of Ben Wade removes another
who, narrowing their minds and their lives
to one idea, mistook bigotry for liberality,
incendiarism for independence, and envy,
hatred and malice and all uncharitableness
for philanthropy and Christian love. 1t has
been claimed for some of these men
that they were honest and that their in
tentions were good. But most of the mis-
chief in the world has been done by men
of good intentions, and honesty is ques-
.tionable when it believes in no honesty but
its own. Ben Wades honesty and
good intentions led him to revile
and spit upon the constitution until
he found that the Southern people, all of
whom he hated with a religious hate, had
placed themselves on his platform when he
became one of the eleventh hour champions
not have suffered that instrument to have
stood in the way Of his seizure of President
Lincoln Office if he could have perfected his
contemplated usurpation. Since the war
there has been no use for these men. Ger
rit Smith became insane and died. Joshua
Giddings has passed away. Garrison still
lives, and as there are now no slaves, oc-
casionally quarrels with Wendell Phillips.
Phillips himself, finding that time hangs
heavy on his hands, and being bound to
obtain some subject for agitation, digs up
Mr. Summers ashes and throws them
in the eyes of General Grant. But

THE CORONATION CEREMONIES of Leo XIII.
we're quietly performed yesterday in the Sistine
Chapel. There were very few persons present
except the cardinals, prelates and diplomatists
accredited to the Vatican. In addition to his
spiritual power the Pope thus becomes II king
without kingdom, which, under ordinary cir
cumstances, would be IA rather uncomfortable
position

In THE ARCHDIOCESE OF BALTIMORE yesterday
the coronation of the new Pope was celebrated
with appropriate ceremonia!s, the cable and
the telegraph having been called into requisition
by the Vatican This is the first time in the
history Of the Church that the celebration has
taken place OIL the same day in the most distant
countries

such an operation generally incom-
modes the person performing it more
than the one against whom it is
directed. Mr.. Wade has been politically
out of the world hong enough to prevent his
death from occasioning any excitement in
political circles, and his loss will only be re-
gretted on account of his many private
virtues.

Is q beautiful ballet. Tho artists have worked
hard, aud tho result will, no doubt, prove
satisfactory to management and public. The
performance takes place this evening. II
Is full forty years since "Rienz was written aud
In Of tho dramatic character OF the story as 1t
told by Buwer, and the glowing themes
of the musical master which flowed from his
brain before he began to work In the deeper and
more metaphysical channels OF hts art, thero be
little doubt that the opera It Is proposed to be rem
dsred by The Experimentation opera troup, will
meet with extraordinary favor. Certainly the prepa-
rations significant OF endeavor on the part OF
this popular which has recently given
much good opera music. TO achieve what wo are
assured they believe bo the eliminating Of
their season.
The plot may be described briefly. The forcblc a.
ducou OF Irene. sister OF Rienzi, occasions quarrel
between Roman mobiles and their adherents. Ono OF
these nobles Adrano the lover borates the maiden,
and the others conclude to fight out their be-
yond the gates Of the Etcrnal City Renz the Roman
Tribune, closing tho gates, induces the people to
shake OIL tho yoke OF their oppressors The latter be-
Ing conquered, suc for peace and pardoned, Dut
they aiterward plot the assassination OF Rienz.
Their Vaccinations revealed by Adriano and the
conspirators are conderAied to death. but Adriano
again comes 10 their renef AMI they arc again par
doned. They stiIl continue TO plot until RIenzl,
fusing any longer TO listen to the nterces OF
Adriano, determines on their extermnatIon In
tho battle which follows these rebel mobiles
arc defeated, and Rienzi returns TO celebrate
by a solemn ''re Deum" his victory. He
Is, however cxcom nun icated by the Church, whose
Jealousy he has excited. ForsaKen by the people to
whom he has given freedom, he takes refuge in tho
CAPITOL where he IS bcseged, and where be pershea
with his sister Irene aud ner lover Adriano among
the burning ruins
From the foregoing skeleton OF the principal
themes, around which Wagner has gathered his best
creative Efforts, IT may DO inferred that the ustra
tive music will possess uncommon variety aud
wealth OF color. Many OF these grand compositions
have been hoard Ia the concert halls OF the world,
and moro or less familiar to cultivated musical
people, but they must acquire fresh interest whom
presented In connection with tho dramatic setting
that IS promised on the Forthcoming occasion. The
sale seats Is said TO DO very large, and brilliant
gathering OF connoisseurs ana worshippers ut the
shrine oi Wagner may be confidently expected.

may be considered an accomplished fact. Ac-
cording TO our dispatches this morning the ice
ut Albany has given way and moved several
miles down the river. In the present depressed
condition of trade this early beginning of the
navigation season is of almost incalculable
benefit TO business as well as to the large
class who earn livelihood in this way. The

TIE WEATHER.--Thc storm has made rather
slow progress since yesterday, and is now pass.
ing eastward from Northern New York and the
eastern British provinces. Rains more or less
heavy have fallen in all the districts
east of the Mississippi River, and SHOWS
In the northern lake region. The winds
attending this depression have not yet developed
very much force in our eastern districts, but
present indications point to an increase in their
velocity from the northwest during to-day.
The temperature continues high within the
area Of low barometer, but falls in the
northwest and west toward the advancing high
pressure. The weather in New York and its
vicinity to-day will be cooler and partly cloudy
or cloudy, with light rains, followed by general
clearing. Tomorrow it will be cool and clear or
partly cloudy.
