./Y Ifard Hit.—Thomas VV. Dorr, in his

the Providence Tournal’, to have remarked
that he noticed there many honest faces
and hrawny arms, which it gave‘ him pleas--
iire t'o see ; but he regretted‘ to" say that
he hal not seen them on-a=certain occas-
ion when he required their presence mtich
more-than he did then. This was a rebuke
well merited by the shuffling cowards who
deserted him at the trying moment.

Value ofbegun with the gross outrage of assigning
to the notorious "‘_Empi1‘c Club,” of New
York, a place in the procession—and not
only a place, btit one of the most conspic-
uous places in the whole procession. ‘The’
Grand Car and Tomb,’ was in the special
keeping of this Club, while immediately
around it were ranged about a dozen ofthe
most notorious gamblers and prize Fghters
in New York; These last were fitly lieadv ’
ed and marshalled by the infamous Capt.

so profound that be had been obliged to

Another circtimstance ill‘-ustiative ofthe
hollow hearted mockery of much that
‘went to make up the doings of the day,

sity noticcble in the music. While one’
lband was playing a solemn march, or fun-'
eral dii'_ge, another was heard so strike up’
the lively air, ‘Miss Lucy Long.’ This,
our informant assures US he actually heard
with his own cars. Pt.-sthumous honors
such as these can hardly tend to elevate’
the character, or embalin the memory of
the truly Cl1l‘lS‘ltlRfl Patriot, in the mindand
