SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL
New ORLEANS, March 5.--The banquet
given to Gen. Diaz| last night by Captain
Eads proved quite al important affair.
Over forty guests were present, including
leading Mexicans and Americans. In re-
Spouse to a toast of welcome from Eads,
Diaz made a very strong speech eulogistic
of the Eads ship canal. He spoke OF the
great services which had been rendered by
Captain Eads to the OF the
United States. and the world was selfish
enough to desire that kindred services
should be rendered to the Republic with
which he was more closely identified in
the grand project to join the waters of the
two oceans by bands Of steel. He recog-
nized a providential scheme to render in
dissoluble the ties of friendship between
the two Republics, and that scheme he
promised would have all the support he
could give it. Numerous other speeches
were made, all Of which were OF a friendly
and fraternal character, and the dinner
was not over until / o'clock this morning.
Considerable significance is being placed
on the very friendly speeches which Diaz
has made here, and to the welcome given
him, which exceeds any ever given to any
other visitor. He has been besieged with
invitations to banquets and receptions.
He has been compelled to decline many of
them. Saturday he was breakfasted by
the Federal officials, lunched by the Mex
ioon Evohonna and 1ipol hy Eols ia
day be has been breakfasted by Major
Burke, State Treasurer, and was allowed
to rest the remainder OF the day.
Death of Gov. stephens.
ATLANTA, Ga, March g. Stephens
death occurred at half-past 8 o'clock yester-
day. At about 2 O'Clock in the morning it
was evident that he was much weaker and
the lend approaching. The doctors placed
strong mustard plasters on his wrist and
let it remain 20 minutes. When removed
there was not the slightest sign of inlam-
nation, and showing very little vitality left.
At half-past 2 the extremities became cold
and clammy, and assumed a purplish hue.
As the end drew near, Stephens was lying
on his back, with his head turned slightly
to the right. The husky rattle in his
throat that had been plainly perceptible
in the night had ceased entirely. There
was no more heavy breathing. and not the
slightest gasping. At a quarter past 3
the family was called in, and after breath
ing a few moments. he died without the
| slightest tremOr. The news of his death
created a thorough sensation.
A meeting Of citizens was held, and ad-
dresses were delivered by Senator Colquett,
Judge Logan, E. B. Leckley and others.
A citizens committee was appointed to
cooperate with the committee from the
Legislature and State House officers in the
conduct Of the funeral. The remains will
lie in state in the capitol until buried
on Wednesday or Thursday. Col. John
Stephens, nephew of the Governor, said:
II have never known him to speak 30 little
Of death as during his present illness, or
to make SO few arrangements for the worst
that might come. In all other attacks he
has been especially careful to impress on
me minute details as to his wishes and
intentions. In this illness he has never
said a single word Of any DESIRES" This
confirms the theory that his illness was
exhaustion rather than disease. Stephens
made a will some time ago. He leaves
$40, 600 to the children of his brother,
Judge Stephens; the rest Of the estate he
leaves to his nephew, Col. John Stephens.
What the estate will foot up depends large
ly upon the sale Of his new history of the
United States. He made about $50, 600 on

in Charlottesville, Ga, where he will be
inferred by the side Of his father.
