The speaker laid before the house COM

response to the resolution calling for in
formation as to the average nRmber of
commissioned officers in the army between
the 4th of March, 1857, and the 4th OF
March, 1861, and between the 4th Of March,

LASKER'S FUNERAL.
The Imposing Ceremonies at the Burial oi
the Deceased Statesman.

BERLIN, Jan. 29.-The funeral of Lasker was
carried out in accordance with the programme.
Twenty thousand people joined in the process
sion to the cemetery, and it is estimated that
hundreds of thousands lined the streets along
which the procession passed, Notwithstanding
the snow storm. There was not the slightest
attempt at anti-Semltic demonstration by the
secessionist party. Lssker's family intend to
offer thanks to the congress of the United
States for the honor paid the deceased. At the
synagogue the casket was hidden under wreaths.
Lasker's old constituency, Meiningen, sent
solid silver wreath, and another magnificent
wreath came from his birth place. The American
minister, Sargent placed a wreath upon the cof-
fin. The assembly represented the whole intel
lectual elite of Berlin, but no member Of the
ministry was present, which was considered
significant While all the Liberal papers de-
voted columns to this event the Nord Deutcher
Zeitung dismissed it with half dozen lines in
the obscurest corner. Herr Knapp in an address
sal that Lasker was such practical politi-
clan that even Prince Bismarck
was unable to dispense with his
assistance. When Lasker refused his co-opera-
ton, it was always from important grounds,
without any trace OF personal prejudice. AS
showing his indefatigability, Kapp recalled the
remark OF the American physician who perform-
ed the post mortem examination, thst his fatal
illness WAS probably traceable to the fact that
Lasker had resumed his parliamentary duties
when he had scarcely recovered from severe
typhoid fever. Kapp concluded, THY high
deeds can never die, thy wreaths fade not.''
