more walked without support of any kind.
All had their badges yelled with Grape and
wore bows OF Grape on the left arm. Their
tattered banners were yelled in black, and
many posts carried as distinctive badges,
sprigs Of myrtle or esergreens on their
breasts. The procession seemed uneuding,
stretching southwark as far as the eye
could reach. The streets all the way to
the tomb were packed with people, and as
the right Of the column approached the
tomb, the dull reverberations of the guns
from the men-of-war could be heard, and
the troops broke column from the left,
marching to the right or east side of the
road. After forming in line arms were
presented and the catafalque slowly
passed.
The crowd on Fifth Avenue remained on
the sidewalks with remarkable persistency
until the long parade had passed. There
were few cases of heat prostration in the
ranks, but so far as known none fatal. The
regimental ambulances were called into
requisition for slight cases perhaps half a
dozen times. At the corner of Fifty
seventh street, where the line turned to the
west, the crowd swelled from the sides to
the open way. and blocked the thorough.
fare on twenty occasions.
There was some trouble when the cata.
falque reached that point. Everybody was
more interested in the approach Of this
than in any other part of the procession.
1t was watched for blocks away, its con-
spicuous height making it plainly visible
as far as Fiftieth street. As it neared the
corner the crowd naturally bulged into the
highway. and the officers had to threaten
with their clubs to make the spectators re-
cede, and it was difficult process.
The people were standing eight and ten
deep, and some Of those in front had raised
their umbrellas to keep off the SUMS rays.
Some women stood with babes in arms, ard
fathers had hoisted their little ones to their
shoulders. The Instructions were numer-
GUS, and those at the rear
were becoming indignant. But
as the catafalque came up annoy
ance was forgotten, and only respect was
felt. As it was, the leaders of the horses
were ordered to make sweeping turn, and
that was the only way in which the inter-
ested gathering could be driven back. The
people fell back from the horses as though
spirit had appeared and ordered their re-
treat. With spontaneity that told of
their reverence every man raised his hat as
the first horse came abreast of him, and re-.
NAMED uncovered until the body passed.

New Orleans Exposition.

The Worlds Exposition undoub,-
edly did tho South nucn 2ood-not
only in illustrating its vast resources,
but in the introduction into the South
ern States of articles of greut nerit
and economic value. In tho matter Of
tea, for instance, 1t had been proVerblal
that the South used but little as COM
p pared with the North, owing TO the diff
ficulty in obtaining choice article.
One of the most successful exhibits at
the exposition was That OF the He-No

wero given away. 1t may not be gen.

Why They DID Nor DANCE
Lafayette, at the age of twenty, left
his young wife and few to aid
Washington. He loaded a ship
with supplies which we're mostly
needed by American troops, and
helped them with the prestige
Of his name, with scant military
experience, and all the cash he
could command. He not only
drilled his soldiers, but clothed
and fed them, and when his own
means were exhausted, he ap-
pealed to the generosity Of others.
When the ladies Of Baltimore pro-
posed to give ball to the gallant
Frenchman, he said to them La
dies, [ should be delighted to
dance with you, but my soldiers
have no shirts The ball was
postponed, and the bellies of Balti-
more made shirts for the soldiers,
