TOlling the Bells.
The proclamation was as follows:


MAYORS OFFICE, Sept. 20, 1SS1.-In view
of the death of the president, the chief of po-
lice will cause the city hall to be draped in
mourning, and at IL o'clock to-day the bell of
the city hall to be tolled until l o'clock. The
fire engine houses will also be draped in
mourning, and the fire bells tolled from IL
o'clock until 1; and the clergy in charge ofthe
cathedrals and churches of the CITY are request
ed to cause the cathedral and church bells to
be toled also from 12 to1 o'clock.
EDMUND RICE, Mayor.
The proclamation was generally complied
with and during the time named the bells
rang out singularly sombre clangor. The
work of draping the buildings was probably
commenced by Jallor Jessrang, who at early
dawn unfurled a flag, surrounded by a deep bor
der of sable, at half mast on the flag staff at
the city hall.
This example was generally followed
throughout the city, and from numerous
breeze, and told by her half-dimmed azure
and red, more eloquently than words, of the
nations sorrow. Betimes the labor of draping
the fronts of business houses, windows and
entrances of public buildings, with hanging
wreaths and festoons of commingled sable and
white, commenced in dead earnest, and was
industrlously piled throughout the day.
Long streamers of muslin and black cam
brio, often varied by the conventional wreathe
and festoon, greeted the eye at every vista.
Third street ard other prominent thorough
fares bore the appearance of newly fedged un-
dertaking establishments, each trying to Outvie
his rival in extent and disposal of the habili
ments of woe.
The state capitol, entrance to the custom
house on Wabashaw street, and the windows
of that building, the city hall, district court
building and old court house and sheriff's Of
flee, were all tastefullv draped in mourning.
The resources of dry goods stores were taxed
for material and skilled service was pressed
into requisitiOn.
In draping the capitol alone 2, 400 yards of
cambria or Grape and muslin were used.
The Opera house and all the leading hotels,
banks, newspaper offices and prominent whole
sale houses were draped in the same sable
material, more or less variation and ingenuity
being displayed in arranging the display. In
short, the desire to give some outward tribute
or token to the feeling of sorrow was uniyer-
sally manifested by the sympathic and public
spirited citizens of st. Paul.
THE BOARD OF TRADE.
The board of trade at its meeting yesterday
morning omitted the usual call and adjourned
after passing the following, offered by Mr..
Gilbert:
WHEREAS, The death of President Garfield
fills all our hearts with deep sorrow, therefore
Resolved, That as taken of our respect,
and a manifestation of cur sympathy, this
board do now adjourn. .
In many instances the decorations were
heightened or relieved by portraits or photo
graphs of the dead president. The GLOBE Of
fee and building was elaborately draped in
festoons and hangings of serge, set off with
wreathes and rosettes of the same material.

CROP FAILURE.

ROME, Sept. 19.-The Diretto, ministerial
organ, says: In view of the disastrous results
of the harvest in some districts, the govern
ment has arranged to expedite plans affording
employment. The ministry of agricultural
has published returns showing that the pro-
duct of wheat will be generally scanty. that
of maize is similar in character except in a
few localities. No better result is expected
from the orange, lemon and olive crops. Po-
tatoes, flax and hemp have been good, and
there are favorable prospects in regard to the

NEW YoRK, April 1s,-The Worlds Lon
don special SAYS Gladstone has made it
known that when the Boer peace comes up
for discussion, after the holidays, he will
not apologize for the action Of the Govern
ment. but will take the Jingo party by the
beard and show them that the war was an
unjust one on England's part, and that he
stopped it to save England's honor. There
is nj doubt that the Government will be
heartily sustained by their majority in the
Commons. Nevertheless the Tories are
visibly gaining ground in the discussion Of
the terms of peace. The rout Of the Lib
erals ST st. Ives, which was thought to be
Of their strongest positions this side
Of the Tweed, shows that public opinion is
not entirely satisfied with the foreign poll
cy Of the Administration but, unforn-
nately for the Tories, the people are much
more intent just now upon domestic re-
forms than upon foreign affairs, even
when the latter involves an inglerious
peace.

Our dispatches indicate that the dead
lock in the Senate has finally bean broken,
or at least that two executive sessions
per week VIII be held for the transaction
OF general business. This is precisely
what the Democratic Senators have been
contending for since March 4. The coun
try is to be congratulated that the Repub-
lirans have at hast come down from the
ridiculous, not TO say disgraceful, atti-
tude which they have been maintaining
before the world for so long a time. The
surrender is practically a Democratic
victory. OF course further attempts will
be made to force Gorham and Riddle
berger into tat billets, bat they will not
amount to much, and after a little while
the Senate will adjourn over to the reg
nlar December session. The SENTINEL
has not the remotest idea that the organ
ization viii be changed at the present
