Colonel lpgersolrs address at the funeral
of his fiend, the late Horace Seaver, on
Sunday, in Boston was eloquent and beauti-
full, but there was no perfume in the flowers
Of its rhetoric, no warmth in the rays of its
brilliancy, no comfort in its awkward phil
osophy 1t was an apotheosis of the doctrine
Of Doubt, an exaltation of the creed Of
Nothingness, containing neither sympathy nor
hope, promising nothing, believing nothing,
hoping for nothing to the dead or living. II
was fervid rhetorical outline of the strange,
empty religion which begins with an If and
ends with a But-the religion of self-boast-
full ignorance and Indifference, which has
Doubt for its spiri, and intellectual husks
for its sustenance.

blooms, though they are overshadowed and
as it were, put out of countenance by the

May puts into her lap is more exquisite than
are the purple gerardias with which August
