Under the shot-torn flag of the Second
Tennessee, in the hall of the House OF
Representatives SO often the scene of
honors conferred upon him by the
people of the Volunteer State in his
lifetime, the remains of Gen. William
b. Bate rest and all day Sunday, in a
continuous line people whose interests
were dear to his heart passed by his
cask eft and looked their last upon the
noble fe atures, which for half century
had been familiar to the students Of
ublic affairs OF the Commonwealth,
says The Nashville American.
Twice near the same spot where the
casket now rests William B, Bate as,
sumed the duties of the high Office of
Chief Magistrate of the State and took
the oath to faithfully observe the Con-
situti q and the laws-an OATH that was
sacredly kept Four times in the same
hall the Senators and Representatives
of Tennessee met in joint convention
for the purpose of electing him to the
highest office in the gift OF the State.
On other occasions when the people of
his State gathered to do honor to Gen.
Bate the hall of the House was decorat-
ed with flowers and flags. Now it is
draped in sombre black, emblematic of
the sorrow of a grief-stricken people.
The only touches of color are the Stars
and Stripes, which he helped to carry
victoriously through the land of the
Montezumas, and the starry cross of st.
Andrew, under which he fought in
numm cradle battles for the cause he
loved, the colors of the Second Tennessee
draped over the casket, those OF the
Fourteenth, which led the way when the
Federal lines on Cemetery Ridge at
Gettysburg were broken and the emb-

sentences out of five These fortunate

only were these dens dark for twenty
two hours out of twenty -four, but the
walls we're running with damp and
pools of water had gathered ON the floor.
Neither books nor anything that might
distract the mind was allowed, and one
prisoner having been found designing
geometrical figures with his bread, had
it removed by the jailer, with the re-
mark that hard labor convcts' were not
permitted to amuse themselves.
Another calculated torture in these
cells is the eyehole,at which warder or
soldier is posted to watch the prisoner.
BY this means the quietest prisoner is
soon moved to frenzy, and the slightest
insubordination is an once punished by
merciless hogging, If not worse. Thus it

The people OF New Orleans certainly
have an eye for the beautiful. The
sides of the streets and private grounds
are beautifully kept. Palms of all kinds
and gigantic in size are to be seen ev-
erywhere. They are scared some from
the cold snap, but are still pretty to look
at. CaTnelians, white. crimson and
pink, are laden with blossoms and some
times are twenty feet high. Oleanders
grow in the open ground and get to be
very large shrubs. Roses cover whole
balconies and show no signs of frost
Audubon Park is most delightful

literally draped with long, gray moss
are sight new to |ennessean.

New Orleans, La, March 8, 1905.
Editor The Herald
Mardi Gras, with it's hord of fantasia
cally dressed and mas oued jewellers, has
gone. New Orleans has again put on
her working clothes. With the depart
ure of Mardi Gras the vast number of
interesting sights of the city have be-
come more apparent The city in itself
is a marvel to contemplate. Built. as it
is, on an almost perfectly level plain,
nearly all of which is ten feet below the
river in high water, the trembling
sound and shaky feeling one hears and
and experiences when heavily loaded
wagon passes, and the round wells OF
the crawfish that can be seen along all
the open sewers on cross streets, make
one feel that the whole thing will float
away. The river is held at bay by a
magnificent levee, which, along the
docks, is held secure by timber and as
phalt pavements, and at other PLACES it
is covered with Bermuda grass. The
drainage Is all from the river to Lake
Pontchartrain. Every street has side
d. aims, and there is a splendid system of
sewerage which is Kept open by daily
flushing and pumps running all the
time This is splendid city for auto
mobiles, there being miles and miles of
the finest asphalt streets to be found
anywhere. They are so smooth that
it is common sight to see groups
of children on roller skates, having as
much fun as their little Yankee friends
do on ice ponds. Aside from the asphalt
streets there are number of fine
boulevards made from little clam shells,
which become packed as firmly as con-
crete. The finest of these shell roads
goes to West End and Lake Poutrhar-f
train, passing the cemeteries at half
way These burial places are the most
wonderful in America. The tombs are
made above ground and are large enough
for families. few are made for sacred
organizations and have crypts for as
many as fifty c)ffins. A great many
buy space in the brick vault that fences
one of the older cemeteries. The Me-
tairie is by far the largest and most in
teresting. for here the sepulchres are as
handsome AID as different as the fertil
brain of the architect can devise and
as elaborate as money can obtain. One
may stroll along the shell drive
ways and narrow alleys and find no two
alike. In this cemetery, just at the
right of the main entrance, stands a
sepulchre wholly unlike anything
else to be found. 1t ia q great mound
of green surmounted with a life size
