Mitchell. Edison, Alvord, Heisley. Yost, Ross
and others. President Chaplin Brown called
the meeting to order at 4:15 o'clock, and
Secretary Geo. E. Emmons read the minutes
Of the previous session. pausing during the
reading once or twice to make explana-
lions or to offer a pertinent observation.
He stated that all of the subcommittee
had been named with the exception of that
on escort, Of which Gen. Albert Ordway
was the chairman, and there was a slight
hitch here, because of the absence from
the city of the general. Tint officer was
soon expected to return to Washington,
and Immediately upon his return the mat
ter would be promptly settled.
The secretary. in reading that part of
the proceedings of the last session rela ting
to the engagement of music. very nearly
precipitated a fresh discussion Of that deli
cate and irrepressible theme. A. this point
Chairman Brown asked for such communi-
cations as had been received by the sec
rotary, and Mr.. Emmons read the letter
which he had received from Maj. Gen.
Carnahan. commander-in-chief of the Uni
formed Rank Knights of Pythias and the
substance of which was printed in The Star
of last evening. In it the general expressed
abiding confidence in the ability Of the
citizens to manage the encampment with
credit to Washington and satisfaction to
the uniformed rank. He also thought that

been experienced with the Western Pas
senger Association and the unpleasant fact
that the railroads had granted a lower

campment of the Grand Army of the Re-
public, to begin at Pittsburg on September
10, than to the biennial encampment of

1t appears further from the narrative of
Maj. Edwards that Macmillan believed
he could win Secretary Stewards friendship
and prevent American Interference In this
belief, he withdrew on the close of the au-
dience with Shelby, and after conyersing
with the Count de Noue sent back his an
swer-a refusal to accept Shelby's offer
Marshal BaZaine gave each of the Mis-
sourians $50 before they disbanded, but this
did not console them for their disappoiut-
ment at failing to secure service in the i'm
perial army, which some of them undoubt-
eddy hoped would be involved in a war with
the United States. Reconstruction had not
proceeded very far among Missouri con-
federates at that time.
After Macmillan was deserted by the
French, the European sovereigns with
whom he was allied by blood and friend
ship tried to induce him to leave Mexico
They might have succeeded, but he asked
advice of ex-Gov. Reynolds of Missouri
and the interview decided his fate Gov
Reynolds told him that to abandon the
Mexican imperialists who had been faithful
to him would not be worthy of his name
and blood. Macmillan at once acquiesced
in this view. returned to the City Of Mexico

"Animosity Between Brothers."

In his speech to, his soldiers
Governor Tillman said among
other things:
Let me say, it is time for this
animosity@ between brothers to
cease, and let us henceforth for
ever be one-all united for the
glory and honor of South Caro-
lima"
If there is one man in South
Carolina who can claim pre-emi-
nence- in stirring up this strife,
that man is Tillman. No man
has done more to bring about
this animosity between broth
ers." It has been his trade. He
began by creating a hostile feel
ing.
In order to succeed politically
this was necessary. He began
by arraying the country against
the towns; by crying out ring
ISM" by alleging that an olegar-
chy existed in South Carolina.
He, and he alone, precipitated
this war between brothers. Like
the demagogue, he imputed to
men motives, plots, characteris-
tics, they never possessed.
Now he has created a condi-
ton of feeling in South Carolina
more deplorabIe than can be
found existing in any of the
United States. It is paralelled
only by the wretched South
American Republics. Capital has
long since taken its fight from
South America. In many places
all nature conspired to make
some of these Spanish speaking
localities rich and prosperous.
Men who have investigated have
been impressed with the further
fact that the condition of unrest
is such that no capital will risk
itself there. Mines, factories,
new settlers, are all impossible
there. Other localities. less
richly endowed by nature, reap
the benefit.
What a lesson is this for South
Carolina and for other localities.
What a lesson for those who,
like Tillman, attempt, for their
own selfish end. their pecuniary
pickings, their lust for Office, TIC
array man, who essay to foist
themselves into places Of gain by
infaming man against man, who,
decryiffg ''class legislation" &c
deliberately to work to engendel
bitter class feeling by pretending
that any one set of men is divided
and hostile to the other. The
men of a State, of a city, should
take it to heart. It is something
to think On.-Richm0nd State.

VANCE'S
Imposing Ceremonies at the Capt.
toI in Washington.

WASHINGTON, April 16.-The
funeral ceremonies of the late
Senator Vance, of North Caro-
lima, absorbed the attention of
the Senate to-day at the opening.
PRAYER BY THE BLIND CHAPLAIN
Mr. Milburn, was devoted en-
tirely to the subject. 1t was in
these words: 20, eternal God,
with our hearts we come to the
foot of Thy throne, while the fun
eral knel1 sounds through the
Capitol announcing the death of
another Senator, while North
Carolina mourns the departure
from her of a beloved and hon
ored son; and the nation feels the
loss. We bless Thee for his large
native powers, skilled in the wide
experience of public affairs, and
for his genial humor, enriching
and illumining all subjects he
touched. making him kindly with
his kind, by virtue of which he
shed the influence of a wise and
benefcent counsel and character
on his native State. Grant to the
widow and children, under this
Esore bereavement, the only com
fort which a come to human
hearts at such a time-unshaken
faith in Thy Holy Gospel and the
consolation and sympathy Of
Thy beloved Son. AS the earthly
part of one of our brothers has
entered on the border of the in
Visible world, grant that we may
hear from Thy lips Blessed are
the dead who die in the Lord,
yea, saith the spirit, for they
rest from their labors, we
humbly pray, through Jesus
| Christ our Saviour, amen"

committee from the State, with

remains of Gov. Vance through
the sister State of Virginia to
the beautiful Capital of North

blue torrents of the French

SENATOR

then made the formal announce
ment of the death Of his colleague
in these words:
"Mr. President. it is my mel
ancholy duty to announce to
the Senate the death of Zebulon
Baird Vance. late a Senator from
North Carolina. He died on
Saturday night last. at forty-fve
minutes past ten o'clock, at his
residence on Massachusetts ave
nue.. in this city.
Though his long continued
and serious illness ought to have
prepared all Of us for the sad
event. still, beguiled by his own
cheerful and hopeful spirit, none
of US had dreamed that the white
horses were coming rapidly to
his door. His death shocks US
to the depths of our hearts. 1t
usa calamity. a sorrow. a deep
spblic and personal bereavement.
Aigreat man has fallen in our
midst. A great patriot. a
great states man, a great
peaker, a great thinker, a
great actor has passed away
from our sight for this life. He
died at his post of duty. with his
complete armor on. with his face
to the front, courageous. hopeful,
useful to the last. Suffering did
not break down his proud spirit,
dim his noble intellect, nor shake
his fearless fortitude. Full of
years. but still in the strength OF
his eminent faculties. crowned
with exalted honors, but still an
mated with yet higher aspira-
ton and promises of doing good,
physically wrecked and over
leone with incurable malady, he
stood firmly in the line of his
comrades and at the last moment
serenely gathered his robes
around him and stepped with the
dignity of Senator and the faith
of a Christian from earth into
Heaven. It looks as if by some
prophetic intuition he had re-
turned from the Spring flowers
and genial skies of Florida to lay
down his sword and shield on
the very altar of his country.
This is not the time, sir, for the
analysis of his character, for eu-
logy of his virtues, for the his
tory of his ~illustrious services.
On some fitting day, l shall ask
the Senate to do justice to his
honored memory. But, sir, ]
should commit a very great
wrong not to say now with what
unspeakable pain and infinite
grief the death of Senator Vance
smites the people of North Caro-
lima. For more than forty years,
in peace and in war, he has been
the most beloved and the most
honored son of that great State.
From the ever-fowing ocean,
across the hills and valleys, to
the majestic mountain tops, he
was a familiar and most dear OBJ

all our people.
