The decoration of confederate
graves took place in Evergreen ceme-
terry at Helena, Ark, last Sunday af-
ternoon, the I'd inst, The World
says!
The procession leading out of the
city was imposing to behold, and at
once inspired one with the idea that,
even though years had passed away
since the dust Of departed heroes had
been deposited in Evergreen, still
their memories clustered about us
and that we still loved to think of
them as comrades and as friends. The
band Of music took the front in the
procession, and was followed by prom
inent citizens in carriages, and next
came the Helena Rifles, with arms re-
versed, under the command Of Lieu
tenant Greenfield Quarles. The
company was followed by ladies and
gentlemen in carriages, and the rear
was brought up by a good many
horsemen, followed by those ON foot.
Arriving at the grounds, the services
were performed by the Rev. Il. II.
Garrison, of the Methodist Episcopal
church, in a most imposing and i'm.
pressive manner, and after the solemn
services we're over, the work of deco
ration commenced, and the grass
which grows green over the remains
of every departed hero received from
the fair hands of woman the appropri-
ate spreading of flowers, intermingled
with feelings oflove and respect from
those who respected them for the
deeds of glory they had done, and
who, while strewing their howery
emblems of May time thoughto Of those
gallant souls who slumbered beneath.
that they had fought their last fight,
and won their last battle, no sounds
can awake them again. Their SER
vices were beautifully conducted, and
the attendance large.

OHIO FOR TILDEN.
Hamilton County Elects an AL

iiOn--The Outlook
in the State.
Special to The Chicago Timos.l

~ &AAANH
CINCINNATI, May 3.--The Hamil-
ton county democracy tonight elected
an almost solid Tilden delegation to
the Columbus convention to be held
Thursday. Among the delegates is
Judge Hoadley, who is one ofTilden's
warmest friends, and who was one of
his counsel before the electoral tri-
bunal in 1877. The Bishops, governor
and sons, have worked hard and sue
cessfully, in the Tilden cause. The
result is that not a half dozen anti
Tilden men will go from this city and
county to the convention. The re-
ports from the state indicate that Til
den will have a big vote on the first
ballot, with some show of carrying the
convention after the first ballot.
Thurman has not such q aure thing of
it as he seemed to have several weeks
ago, and there is 4; serious doubt ex-
pressed of his ability to get the vote
Of his state. Payne and Jewett will
get some few votes, but not enough
probably to give them much promi-
hence. Field aud Hancock will have
no votes, so far as heard from.

General Trade.

In all departments Of trade business
Ms quiet, with a general declining ten
ency in prices. A railway and
Steamboat freight war has been in
augurated between Ohio river boats
and railways leading to the gulf and
south Atlantic ports. Freight rates
have dropped within the present week
from 10 to % per cent. The several
railways are also about to have a
freight fight, the principal contest be-
ing between the Louisville and Nash
vile and its branches, and the South
ern, from Cincinnati to Chattanooga,
and its branches. The people will
realize all the advantage Of the fight,
in reduced rates, while railway share
holders are likely to realize lighter
dividends. A hundred thousand dol
lar failure occurred yesterday in
Preston, England, cotton for forward
delivery being the cause assigned. We
may expect more OF the same sort UNI
less tncre is a reaction in values, which
at present has no prospect of being
realized. Our receipts Of grain aud
all classes of goods for the past week
have been meager, and since yesterday
very little has been added. A few
new potatoes come by almost every
steamer, and the Guiding Star passed
here last night with 500 barrels, taken
from growers in Louisiana and Mis-
,sippi, to be put off at points along
Ae Ohio. The crop hereabopts is in
fine condition, and will shortly be
ready for use. There is little or no
change in prices since last report. A
light jobbing demand and order trade
is about all that is now doing.

IL VETO MESSAGE.
President Hayes Insinceriiy and
Inconsistency.
Special to the courler.Journal ]

Special to the Courier-Journal
WASHINGTON, May 4-Hayes' mes
sage v%etoing the immediate deficiency
bill has caused no little excitement ia
political circles. Even many republi
cans regard it as a remarkable docu-
ment. A veto based exclusively on
opposition to Incorporating general
legislation in appropriation bills is
something uuheard of hitherto. This
is the first case Of the sort in American
parliamentary history. Hayes SINGER
ity in the reason assigned is put to q
severe test in the face of the fact that
he has repeatedly approved %appropria-
ton bills containing general legisla-
ton. His private secretary, who car
ried the veto message into the capitol
to.day, at the same time bore with
him a communication announcing the
presidents approval Of the army bill,
which passed congress only after oppo.
sition by voice and vote OF the solid
republican party in both the house
and senate; an opposition based in
part on the fact hat the bill contained
general legislation in the shape of a
prohibition of the use of troops at the
polls. A short time ago Mr.. Hayes
signed the star route deficiency bill,
which also contained general legisla-
ton. The armybill passed and signed
at the extra session embraced seven
specimens Of general legislation, which
were voted for by a large number of
republicans. In view Of these and
similar facts, nearly everybody here
expressed the opinion that to-day's
message is purely a party document,
designed expressly to stir up partisan
strife and bitterness for campaign pur-
poses. The inevitable result of the
veto will be to prolong the session two
or three weeks.
