REMOVING THE BODY,
Z he Last solemn Service at the City
HalI-Thc car Drawn Up.

The night wore on without any incident
OF note, the morning came, and at $50
General Hancock and staff trooped slowly
into the plaza from Broadway and presented
front to the City Hall. At this time 10
members of the l.iederkranz society filed up
to the steps, and led by six instrumentalists
sang with impressive effect "Chorus of the
Spirits from Over the Water,n by Schubert,
and the "Chorus of the Pilgrims" by Tam
hauser. Tho two selections were we'll rem
dered in German, Al the conclusion of the
singing the choristers looked through the
barred gates at the black catafalque and the
casket OF royal purple, Soon after that the
original G.. A. X. guard, which served so
faithfully on Mount McGregor filed in under
command of John H. johnson, senior vice
commander of Grant Post, Il. A. r., Brook

halted in front of the closed gates. 1t con-
sisted of two companies of the Fifth artillery,
of forty men each, under commanl Of Col
onel ". b. Book. That officer assembled the
steps, and as he turned, the file separated
one company marching mp the steps at the
east and another at the west, extending their
line in double file from the gates TO the
plaza. At the right stood the Davids Isl
and band. Five minutes later the funeral
car was slowly drawn up before the steps,
led by its long line of horses, each
covered with heaYy black netting, anu lol
by Il colored groom. The scene from within
the City Hall gates at this moment was some
thing wonderful Directly in front was the
immense funeral car, in most striking contrast
with the bright reflected sunlight Of the
plaza. Directly back of this the large vacant
Space was kept clear by the police Beyond
this was great sea of human heads massed to-
gether as far as the eye could see, Above, in
all the windows and ON the tops OF the build
ings were seen hundreds of heads stretched
far out to get a sight of the impressive scene,
and with all this not sound was heard. The
air was as still as il the place had been de-
serted. Within the City Hall there was
perfect quiet Upon the casket was
only the wreath OF oak leaves made by the
dead hero's grandchildren, Suddenly Cap
tain johnson, in command of tho palbearers
from U. S. Grant Post, said in a whisper,
"Attention ~ Instantly the twelve mon
moved at a greater distance from each side OF
the casket and Mayor Grace appeared upon
the scene This was the signal for the open

the ten clergymen, dressed in SUPPLIES. They

The passing of these troops was the general

WASHINGTON, March 4, 1s69.)
The hero comes
Mid peal of bells and roll of drums,
The tifes shrill note and trumpets' blare
With strains triumphant fill the air.
The capitals fair form stands drest
In stars and stripes. From east and west
And north, a throng of war-worn men
With wild cheers greet their chief again.
(New York, dug. 8, 1850
The hero comes
Mid tolling bells and muliled drums.
The starry flags at half mast droop-
While blue and gray, a sorrowing group,
Meet round the generous victor's bier
With heartfelt sigh and bitter tear.
The hero comes.
BE silent, all ye bells and drums
And thou, oh, sword upon his breast,
Sleep now, and with thy warrier rest.
Though fame has long beside him walked,
There, too, unseen, his conquerer stalked,
And low he lies before that foe
Whose arm defeat can never know.

An hour had been consumed in the passage

bers street the First division of the New
Jersey National Guard wheeled into the
street and took up position above Duane
street, their place in the procession being
at the head of the division containing
the catafalque and Immediately pre-
ceding the pail l-bearers. Below the City Hall
Park the municipal officials and board of al.

abreast, in order TO Immediately follow tine

telegTaphed to General Hancock that all was
in readiness. At 0;i5 the signal came to
start, and as the entire line began to move
slowly uptown, the tolling of St Pauls bell
announced the fact to the waiting thousands,

ing House square and Broadway up to Union
Square were one mass of humanity as early
as $3.50 o'clock. Every available window of
the buildings facing the spot was filled with
people to its utmost capacity while the roofs
of the high structures presented dark fringe
of living beings outlined against the blue sky.
Pressing closely against the police lines the
entire circle of the City Hall park were thou
sands of men, women and children, many of
whom had held their positions for hours.

General Grants MOdesty.

Geo. VIM. Curtis, in Harper's for October.
The Easy Chair may be pardoned the nara
ton of a personal annecdote connected with the
subject, known only to General Grant and itself,
which the General is not likely ever to have told
It is little incident which illustrates, in the
peasantest way, certain sentiment in General
Grant which In so plain. sturdy and positive a
man might not be suspected. The Easy Chair
had been interested in the preparation of the
rules and OF the nrst report upon reform
after the passage of the Jenckes amend
ment, and on the morning that the President
was to send them to Congress he had
asked the Easy Chair to come to the White
House and hear the message which was to ac-
company the report. When the Easy Chair ar
rived the President said that the message was
copying, and presently the original, in his own
writing, interined and corrected and the fair
copy to be sent to the Capitol, were both laid
before him. General Grant read the message
aloud, the listener sitting at the table by his
side. When he had read it, with the shy air of
bashful girl he pushed the autograph draught
over the table toward the Easy Chair and said
quickly ''There; it isn't worth anything, but
perhaps you would like to keep it," and began
Immediately to speak of something else.

800 in the railway mail service new men.
Fully one-half of the chiefs of bureaus are

In the Interior Department, consultations are
in progress for the good Of the service but many
changes have been made. In the Patent Office
