fame. The seven days battle in the
! Wilderness gave the speaker good
opportunity to illustrate how much
Of determination and tenacity, and
how little of luck, had an influence
in Grants success. AS the speak
er traced Grants first struggle with
his foes, and his successive gain
ing of positions day after day, while
he closed, with the method and de-
liberation of chess player, his line
of steel around the enemy in a Sc
| ries of brilliant successes which ter
minated in the surrender OF Lee,
the veterans who had reserved
seats in front broke into applause.
President Edwards raised his hand
as a signal for quiet, but as the
speaker proceeded, the applause
came again and was again silenced.
Mr.. Bartine then called his COM
rades to order stating that he was
not speaking for applause, but only
telling the simple fact of Grants
campaigns. While applause is out
Of place at funeral, the ex-soldiers
could hardly be blamed under the
circumstances, and after the SER
vices good many in the audience
were frank enough to admit that
they were on the point of joining in
the demonstrations oe approval.
COL. ELLIS
Had been invited by the committee
to speak, but declined as he did
not expect to be present, He was
delayed in the city, however, and
being seen in the audience. was
invited to speak. He made Il ort
address, in which he paid beauti-
full tribute to the dead. and drew 4
graceful picture OF how, upon tn
day of the last rites, all over the
Union, the South was on hand t.
pay its full quota of grief to the
departed, and to bury forever the
animosities of the war, every bitter
memory of which he hoped would
in time be obliterated from Amer
can minds forever.
AN INTERRUPTION.
During the progress of Col. Ellis |
an alarm of fire was voiced |
without, and as it seemed close to !
the building, many people rose
from their seats and rushed to the
door. The incident created such |
confusion that it was some minutes
before order prevailed. President
Edwards finally announced from
the stage that it was a false alarm
and quiet was restored. The exer-
,ises lasted less than two hours,
md were in all respects fitting and
appropriate to the sad occasion.

The TT of Private Poll teal Papers

New YORK, Aug. 10.-The Sun $
London special says: There was a
great stir in the Hobbies of the
House tonight, over the discovery
that private letters belonging to
certain members inimical to the
Parnellltes had been stolen from
their dispatch-boxes and other re-
ceptacles, and the contents of the
letters were being acted upon for
political purposes. 1t was in this
way that O'Brien is said to have
become possessed of letter from
Errington, showing the existence of
an intrigue between the Vatican
and the Gladstone Government in
regard to the Dublin Archbishop
ric. The Parnellites, while deny
ing the thefts, are laughing at the
plight of the anti-Irish politicians.
