THE LONG VOYAGE ENDED.

one guns at 10:45 announced the arrival oi Secretary Lincoln and General Sheridan or Governors Island, near which the Bear and Thetis lay mooBed. There were about one thousand visitors gathered on the island. The scene was interesting. The grass and foliage was fresh and beautiful, the air was clear, cool and invigorating. The soldiers in their bright uniforms looked chipper and the polished guns gleamed in the sunlight. There was no suggestion of death in the picture, except the mark of crape upon the left arms of the guards. It was not until afternoon that the bodies were transported from the Bear to the dock by the steam tug Catalpa Following them came General Hancock's barge, and the steam launches Dispatch and Minnesota The fotilla was commanded by Lieutenant Commander R. D. Hitchcock. There were about four hundred troops in line made up from six batteries of foot artillery, together with the mounted men of light battery. The names of the dead are as follows:
 Lieut. James B. Lockwood, whose body will be sent to Annapolis, Md; in charge of Lieutenant R. G. Peck, U. S..-N., who acts for General H. H. Lockwood, father of the dead lieutenant; Frederick F. Kislingbury whose remains will be sent to Rochester, N. Y., for interment; Sergeant Edward Israel, who will be buried at his home, Kalamazoo, Mich; Sergeant David c. Ralston, whose body will be sent to Norwood Knox county, O.; Sergeant David Linn, who will be buried in Philadelphia; Corporal William Cross, whose remains will be forwarded to his widow in Washington D. C.; Corporal Jo- seph Ellison, whose brother in Pottsville, Penn, will received his body; Private Will liam Ministers, who will be buried by his father in Delphi, Ind; Private William A. Ellis, whose mother will take charge of his remains in Clyde, N. Y.; Private Charles B. Henry, interment at Cypress Hill cemetery, Long Island, Private R. R. Schneider, inter ment at Chemnitz, Germany.
 Directly behind the troops were drawn up the artillery caissons upon which the bodies of the Arctic heroes were to be conveyed to the mourning draped hospital of the post As each body was taken from the barge the soldiers presented arms, the officers raised their swords, the hilts of which wore mourn ing symbols, the band played funeral dirge and the minute gun from Castle William broke in heavily. As the bodies were carried to the caissons, Secretary of War Lincoln, General Sheridan, Colonel Sheridan, General Hancock and his staff stood at the head of the wharf with uncovered heads. After all the bodies had been placed on the caissons the troops made flank movement to the hospital, the band playing the dead march in Saul. At the hospital great throng was gathered and with uncovered head watched the, transferring of the remains to the room where they will lie in state until taken away by friends. The troops returned then to their quarters and the gathered peo- pie were permitted to pass through the build ing and view the caskets. Each casket was wrapped in the American flag and ticketed with the name of it's dead. All day visitors focked over from the city to view the bodies as they lay in state, watched over by grim visaged regulars who paced up and down be- fore their charges carefully guarding them. The weeping relatives, some with moist eyes viewing for the first time the faces of their dead, added an element of unspeakable pathos to the scene.
 GOVERNOR WALLER STAIDAWAY. The Democratic Blowout At Boston
 Most of the Big Guns Fail To
 Show Up-The Speakers Talk About
 Cleveland and Reform and Throw
 Cold Water On Butler, While
 the Listening Unterrffied Applaud.
 BOSTON, Aug. 8.-The Democrats of Boston opened the campaign tonight auspiciously by double ratification meeting in Fremont Temple and Faneuil Hall. In spite of the heat, which was intense, both halls were well filled, the temple being crowded to the doors save the upper gallery where no human being could exist in the temperature There was generous sprinkling of ladies in both audi ences and the gatherings, though marked by strong feeling, were orderly. Cheers for the candidates were called for again and again and given with a will. The rallies were rad ically different in character from past Demo cratic assemblies in Boston in that they were meetings of citizens from both the old par ties who believe that Grover Cleveland rep resents Americas ideal of statesman and as such should be elevated to the presidency Men attended the meetings who had never met a political demonstration be fore Staunch friends of Sumner and Everett through their illustrious careers and inyincib1e old Democrats who have voted the straight ticket since the days of Jackson sat side by side on the platform and mingled their cheers for common cause. There was 8 noticeable lack of enthusiasm for Butler at both meetings. A call for three cheers for him at Fremont Temple was loud ly hissed and the caller removed by the peo- pie, and when one of the speakers said that had Cleveland failed of nomina- tion he would have supported the ticket and not have attempted to destroyhet
 party the applause was deafening. The en- thusiasm for Cleveland all through was un- bounded, his name being repeatedly cheered. The Temple meeting was opened by Colonel Henry Walkef Ex-Governor Gaston pre- sided, and addresses we're made by MT. Walk CT, Mir. Gaston, Judge Edward R. Avery, Josiah Quincy, jr., Judge Redmond, Com missioner Fitzgerald and others.
 At Faneuil Hall, M. M. Cunniffe, chair man of the city committee, called the as sembly to order Congressman P. A. Collins presided and addresses were made by Messrs. Cuniffe and Collins, Hon. J. G. Alb bott Hon. T. J. Gargar, F. o. Prince, sec retary of the National Democratic commit tee. and others. Hon. B. F. P1llsbury of Maine, who was to have spoken, excused himself on account of the heat and by unan- imous vote his address will be presented to the public as part of the proceedings. Hon. Samuel J. Randall and Joseph Pulitzer of New York, who were expected, announced at a late hour that they. could not attend. Letters of regret were read from Governor Waller of Connecticut Hon. 5. 5. Cox of New York, Hon. A. Hendricks, ColonelfW. P. Villas of Wisconsin, John Kelly, Hon. Francis Herman of New York, Hon. Perry Belmont and others:
 Governor Walters letter read as follows:
 rS NEW LONDON August 5. 1884 '
 Mv DEAR SRI regret that official engagements
 
 ratify the dofngs of the Cmcagoz convention make it rule not to attempt political speeches but should have been glad if it had been consistent with official duty to have made your meeting one of the exceptions
 every day looking brighter. The campaign of ouI opponentsi based on prejudice of class and preju dice of creed has had brief, unfortunate run, and is now ignoniniously ended The batteries of slan der they opened on us are enectually silenced Every gun they fired did more execution at the breech than the muzzle. The issue is now clearly defined again between corruption and honesty, be tween extravaganza and economy, between the army of oflceholders and the army Of the people and the result issnot doubtful. Yours truly,
 T. M WALLER.
 Josiah Quincy, jr., the only speaker ehoser from the Independents, voiced the feelings of that body as follows: At the recent Re publican rally Lodge told his hearers that the Republican candidates were nominated freely and fairly, and that they represented the choice of large majority of tho party. The truth of this statement I freely coneede; it is precisely because of it's truth tha some of us have less hesitation in refusing te support the ticket. It is plea which drag down the Republican party without lifting up it's candidates. Had the nomination of Blaine and Logan been an accident tn, ties of party might have held us with somi force But to tell us that we ought to ac
