cut high and trimmed with an exquisite EN-
broidery OF silk and pearls. and interior finish
OF duchess point and tulle, which was repeated
upon the ciose-elbow sleeves. One OF the walking

MEMORIAL SERMON
On the Death and Burial ofshe late Gen.
u. s. Grant.

On the Death and Burial OF the late Gen.
u. s. Grant.
The Rev. DR.. g. v. Leech Of the
First NJ Il. Church, this city, ia bis
memorial sermon Of the late General
u. ). Grant, whose burial took place
at New York, on Saturday, preached
from Deut. 32-49 and so: "Get
thee up into this mountain, Abrim,
unto Mount Nebo, and behold the
land Of Canaan which / give unto
the Children Of Israel for q possession.
And die in the Mount whittier thou
goest up, and be gathered unto thy
people The Doctor said il was not
bis purpose to run a parallel be-
tween the ascent of the Great Ser
want Of the Most High, here referred
to, whom the Lord knew face to
face" and that of the distinguished
man by whom so lately ascent was
made to Mt. McGregor, to die; nor to
seek such parallel in their careers.
We are too near in time to him
just gone; too closely related to the
people he represented to interpret
with any probable correctness some
OF the facts and their bearings. We
know that Moses and his people
worked out much of vast import to
the well-bcing Of mankind. The same
is true OF bin who has just laid down
his work, and of bis generation.
Living men, he said, always discount
the present, IN comparison with the
past, and in this regard, indeed, "tis
distance that lends enchantment to
the view" After referring to the
work of some of Gods chosen people,
even IN our day and generation, he
said, II think do not mistake among
the few names who will be pro-
nounced as chief 10 the vast and un-
perishing work, will be that of the
quiet but strong and large hearted
man who, with determined step, went
up our Northern Mount so recently
to pass awsy, and covered with
nations tears aud a worlds honors,
was yesterday laid to rest on the
Hudson's bank.
He referred to bis early life, bis
achievements 10 battle, and his adj
ministrations, and said it was fitting
that good men from the North, South,
East and West should lay him away
gently and go home to teach their
children bis virtues and to see that
they loved the union he saved.
We regret that our space will not
permit US to publish more Of this
very interesting discourse.

with a telescope the disk Of Jupiter is
larger than that of Venus (nearly 3
