EX-PRESIDENT HAYES.

The Boston Herald makes the pres
ence of ex-President Hayes at Gen.
Grants funeral the occasion for pay
ing deserved tribute to the chaac-
ter and public services of a man who
stands head and shoulders above the
men whose custom it is to traduce
and try to belittle him:
An unobtrusive figure in the pro-
cession that followed the remains of
President Grant to the grave on Sat-
urday was that of the only living man
who had, like himself, held a full
term of Office in the American presi-
dency. That man was his own sue
cessor in office; like himself he had
been a general in the armies of the
republic during the war of the re-
bellion; like himself he had been
borne by the Republican party into
the presidency; like himself he had
returned to private life when his term
of service was ended. President
Hayes had not been conspicuous in
the public eye since that period. His
tastes are quiet; his manner has al
ways been quiet one. But he is
none the less remembered by the ma
ton, and he may we'll rest his fame
with it on the acts of his administra-
ton. He gathered about him
one of the best cabinets, both in abil-
ity and purity. None of its acts fail
ed to be approved by the better SEN
timent of the country-none, indeed,
has been seriously questioned at any
time. The vexed southern question
was settled under it; troops were
Withdrawn and peace was restored to
the southern section. There was no
charge of corruption in his cabinet,
or among his important officers in any
section of the country. The gener-
al feeling was of fair dealing in all
acts, and the virulence of party spir-
| it was essentially assuaged while it
was in power. The President had
modestly announced his determine
ton not to be candidate for re-elec-
ton. He held it firmly when his term
of office was about to expire. He
left behind him the record of an adj
ministratlon pure in its atmosphere
and clean in it's record. Since he re-
tired from the presidency Mr.. Hayes
has done nothing to invite attack. 1t
may be the fashion of the hour to de-
preciate him. 1t will be the verdict
of history.

The Bennington battle monument
association held meeting at Ben-
nington on Wednesday, with Gov.
Pingree and Senators Morrill, and Ev-
arts present among others. The Weir
design for a statuesque monument
was withdrawn and that of j. Phi.
Rim, which calls for massive shaft
800 feet high, was unanimously adopt
ed. The result of the meeting will
be altogether satisfactory to all who
have given any attention to the sub
ject. There can be no question that
lofty and commanding monument
will alone comport with the scene of
the battle, with the character of the
men who fought it, and with the rug
ged landscape surroundings. Steps
were taken to secure the payment of
the appropriations voted by Congress
and the states of Vermont, Massa-
chusetts and New Hampshire. 1t is
hoped to get the foundation laid dur
ing the coming year, ready for the
superstructure.

dial will not prevent or delay the Sc
curing of future appropriations nee
essary to carry on the work of the
Bureau.
The delegation of cattlemen, who
recently visited Washington in the
interest of the companies leasing
lands in Indian Territory for grazing
purposes, has left disappointed. They
have been taught lesson which will
probably not soon be forgotten. At
ter listening to the arguments in sup
port of their request for an extension
of the forty days time specified. with
in which they must remove their cat
tie from the territory, the President in
formed them that, although their pri-
vate interests might suffer, the inter-
ests of the public demanded that the
order must be complied with, and re-
fused to modify it. There can be
no doubt that the encroachments up
on the reservations by the cattlemen
has been the principal cause of trou-
BILE with the Indians, and the people
of the country Outside of the inter-
ested districts) will applaud the action
of the President.
It will be remembered that imme-
diately after the close of the war a
number of southern families left this
country to settle in Brazil Mr.. Bed
lord Mackey, Consul at Rio Grande
do Sui, who has just returned, gives
an interesting account of the Confed-
crate Colony in Brazil. The colony
consists of about six hundred persons,
and is located four hundred miles
southwest of Rio Janerio. 1t is fine
farming region, we'll watered, and is
in the midst of the great coffee re-
gion. Its members are engaged in
farming and manufacturing. They
had nearly all taken an active part in
the rebellion, and believing that the
feeling of bitterness engendered by
the war would render their further
residence in the United States I'M
pleasant, they decided to remove with
their families to South America. The
colonists are reputed to be prosper
Gus and law-abiding subjects of the
Empire. The only public building in
the village is called 'The Rebels
Rest Mr.. Mackey, who is himself
South Carolinian, says: ''The
American colony is not Indifferent 10
current events in the United States,
although not fully advised of the
steady growth of that fraternal SEN
timent in our country, which, on Sat-
urday will bring Wade Hampton and
Fitzhugh Lee arm in arm with Sheri-
dan and Sherman, as mourners over
the coffin of the great commander of
the armies of the Union"
The date of the Presidents return
to Washington has been fixed as the
10th of September, exactly one
month from to-day. II.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, august 10,

WUSHTtgtOIC, huyuSt ~.
Mr.. Editor,-The extremely hot
weather which has prevailed for SO
long time has been succeeded by a
sudden fall in temperature, and dur
ing the past two or three days it has
rained continuously.
An executive order was issued clos
ing all of the Government offices at
3 p. m. on Friday in order to allow
those who desired to attend the fun
eral of General Grant to leave by the
afternoon trains. Thousands availed
themselves of the extremely liberal
rates at which the railroad companies
had placed their fares to New York,
and the city was soon deserted by
those who give it life, activity and in
terest.
The President and the various
members of his Cabinet took their
departure by the four O'Clock train on
Friday in special car, which had
been provided for them by the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company. This
is the first time that the President
has left Washington in accordance
with definitely announced program,
ho tn
| public announcement of his move
ments.
All day Saturday the rain fell
from leaden sky, and Washington,
with its deserted streets, presented a
funera! like aspect. The Govern
ment buildings, with closed doors and
black drapery dripping with rain,
clinging to the walls, contributed not
a little to the general feeling of de-
preston which prevailed. But few
excursions left the city on account
of the weather, and those who had
not gone to New York remained in
seclusion within doors.
The bells of the Metropolitan
Church, where General Grant used
to worship, were chimed from II to l
O. clock, which was known to be the
hour at which the last rites were per.
formed at the grave.

duty of investigating the affairs oil

while they have been unable to dis
cover any direct misuse of funds ap-
propriated for specific purposes, thai

Bilious symptoms invariably

Bilious symptoms invariably
arise from indigestion, such as

cretes the bile and acts like a
filter or sieve, to cleanse impu-
rites Of the blood. By irregu-

sionS OF its functions, the bile
is liable to overflow into the
blood, causing jaundice, sallow

distressing symptoms. Bilious
ness may be properly termed
an affection of the liver, and

Extensive preparations are being
made for the meeting of the czar and
emperor of Austria, which will come
shortly at Kremzier, Moravia. The
cost of the decorations and other ar
rangements will reach 100000 for
ms. The greatest efforts are being
put forth by the authorities to pre-
vent any attempt being made on the
life of either of the potentates. Hun
dreds of the most experienced and
trusted policemen have been drafted
for service. Precautions have been
taken to prevent the mining of any
portion of the town, and great care
is being taken in regard to the trans
portation of dynamite and other ex-
plosives. All parcels and boxes des-
tined for Kremzier are carefully ex-
amined before being permitted to en-
ter the town. The names and occu-
pations of all the dodgers, and of all
strangers arriving in town, have been
ordered to be furnished to the police
by the proprietors of hotels and lodg-
ing houses. No person will be ad
mitted to the town after the Goth inst.
without special permission.

SO, as I edid not want to 60 to

to Lincoln, and at the proper hour
we started for the train. AS we
were driving along Pennsylvania
avenue horseman drove past us on
a gallOp and back again around our
carriage, looking into it. Mrs Grant
said, There is the man who sat near
us at lunch to-day, with some other
men, and tried to overhear our con-
versation. He was so rude that we
left the dining-room. Here he is

letter from a man, saying that be

GEN. GRANTS DARKEST DAY.

On one occasion General Grant
said to a dear friend: 'sThe darkest
day of my life was the day heard
of Lincoln's assassination. / did not
know what it meant. Here was the
rebellion put down in the field and
starting up in the cutters. We had
to fight it as war, now we had to
fight it as assassination. Lincoln
was killed on the evening of the 18th
of April. | was busy sending out
orders to stop recruiting, the pur-
chase of supplies, and to muster out
the army. Lincoln had promised to

Grant saying that she must leave
Washington that night. She wanted
to go to Burlington to see her chill

A NATIONAL FUNERAL.

1t has been truly said that, consid-
cred in all their significance, the OBJ
seauies of Gen. Grant last week are
without parallel in history. The
funeral pageant in New York was
magnificent and impressive, and no
such assemblage of soldiers, states
men and citizens, whose names are
known throughout the civilized world
was ever before gathered on such an
occasion. Memorial services were
also held in most of the cities and
chief towns; and in the smaller
places strong interest was shown al
most universally. Political and re-
ligious difference and race prejudicies
were buried from sight in the solemn
hour, and all united in mourning the
great loss which they felt that the
nation had experienced. But the
funeral honors paid to Grant have a
deeper significance than is to be
found in the formal expressions of
mourning. They embodied the ma
jestic tribute of nation to the mem
ory of man who had come to be
universally esteemed for his positive
merits, his heroism and generalship,
his broad patriotism, his noble hui
manity, and the many excellencies
displayed in his domestic life and in
his intercourse with his fellow-men.
The exalted appreciation of Gen.
Grant by his countrymen was mani
tested quite as profoundly in other
lands. On the day of the funeral al
Mount McGregor, memorable SER
vice was held in Westminster Abbey
at which Canon Farrar delivered 6
feryent and eloquent eulogy on Gen
Grant. 'sSuch careers" he said
"are the glory of the American con
tinent; they show that the people
have a sovereign insight into intrinsic

IN MEMORY OF U. s. GRANT.

The breadth and tenderness of this
days tribute to Gen. Grant are not
inspired by the loss of great mill
tary chieftain like Caesar, or Crom-
well, or Marlborough, or Wellington,
or Napoleon. Great our hero was
as soldier-as great as any of
these. The tribute is paid by
continent because General Grant
was more than soldier. Caesar
paid the expenses of his Gallo wars
by selling his prisoners to the slave
merchants. General Grant told his
prisoners to return home, with their
horses and baggage, and make no
more war against the union. Crom-
well ravaged Ireland, put thousands
to the sword, banished thousands
more to foreign service, confiscated
thousands of estates, and sent ship
load after shipload over the sea to
spend their lives in slave labor in
Jamaica and the West Indies. Our
conqueror put no prisoners to the
sword, he confscated no estates, he
never sent a captive into slavery,
but enforced the noble Emancipa-
tors decree which gave liberty to
millions of bondmen.
1t has been said of Marlborough
that he never besieged fortress
which he did not take, never fought
battle which he did not win. But
of this great soldier it has also been
said that he ssturned without a shock
from quieting Europe and winning
great victories to heap up matchless
fortune by speculation and greed.''
Our great soldier, wrestling fol-
weary months with dread disease,
employed the hours of greatest relief
in writing his Memoirs" which
should replace for his family hard.
earned competence which had been
swept away by the greed and rascal
lty of others. - IS,
"Bonaparte wrought" says oul
own Emerson, "for power and wealth
without scruples as to the means
He would steal, SANDER, assassinate
drown and poison as his interest die
tated. He left France smaller, poor
er, feebler, than he found it; ant
the whole contest for freedom wa
to be begun again." Our hero wa
the soul of honor, and like that no
bier Frenchman, the Chevalier Bay
ard, was without reproach.

New York's tribute to General
Grant was worthy of the country's
greatest commercial city. The pro-
cession included $4,000 persons, and
was about equally military and civic.
The head of the procession entered
Riverside Park at O'Clock, and it
was not until three and a half hours
later that the entire procession had
arrived. The services in the park
were brief and simple, but deeply
impressive. 1t is estimated that a
million people filled the streets of
New York during the passage of the
procession. Notwithstanding the
presence of such host nothing &C.
Cured to mar the solemnity or pro-
priety of the occasion.
