HYMN ON PRINTED SLIPS.

Printed slips were handed to the car
windows giving the~lines of the two
beautiful hymns, deeply bordered in
black. A remarkable spectacle was pre-
scented as the train moved across the
long bridge spanning the Susquehanna
from Harrisburg. On either side of the
stream UP and down, for miles, the
banks were in solid masses to the
trees far in the background. On the
brloge itself urchins had clambered
into the tangle OF steel at the sides and
roof. On the surface Of the river in a
iotilla of rowboats and yachts, hun
dreds more looked up at the train of
death. On the other side another dense
crowd lined the tracks, and with barred
heads peered into the catafalque car.
Again at York the train moved for
half a mile between avenues of solid
humanity and windows and house tops
alive with people. BY this time the
sun was getting low and in the throngs
were hundreds of workmen with their
dinner pals. Everywhere the same
scenes of sorrow and reverence that
had gone before were re-enacted.
