"ADDRESS AT THE GRAVE or THE
LATE SENATOR HUNTINGTON.
Arrived at the grave, and the body com-
mitted to its last repose, the Rev. Dr.
A1-iris, of the First Congregational Churc_h,
made a most appropri-ate—and touching. ad-
dress, siibstaiitially as follows :V
“. The mourners on, this occasion are not
restricted by ties of kindred. The grief
which this sudden stroke of irmysterious
Providence has awalceined, will indeed be
most keenly felt in the domestic circle of
the rnost excellent,_man, whose remains
we a're‘_jr_i_oitV_cotnnrittitig to the dust. For
within tliat_circle he was best known —
And where he was best known, he was
tnost_ behived.‘ But this stroke falls upon
the whole community and they claim the
privilege of mingling their tears with
those of the affl cted family.
Selclorin are we called to perform these
sad offices for one who has a deeper,
stronger holtl upon the respect of the pub-
lic mind, and the affectiori of the public
heart. VVe are all bereaved, and the un-
expected quarter from whitli the bereave-
riieut comes renders it the more painful.
VVe were not prepared for it. We were
taken by surprise. The announcement
fell upon us like a sudden peal of thunder
from the clear blue sky which isabove us.
But yesterday he was one of its. And
though in the bosom of his family some
anxiety was felt on his accouiit—foraffec-
tion is q'u‘ic.k-to take alariit--yet no serious
apprelieiisions were e-nt~.-rtaiuei of such a
result as we have witness--d. On 'l‘litirs-
day last he walked from the city. On
Ft iday he was sliglily itiilisposed. On Sat,-
urdny he took medical .-idvice. On the
Sabbath there was no rriateri.il (:ltunge.—
On Nlonclziy, as the (lay advanced, his
5:,-'mptorns as-nineil a more alartniiig type;
and between twelve and one o’clock this
morning, his spirit tool; its upward flight.
Truly, in the midst of life we are in (leatli.
If this numerous and ttry wish to know
how he met the final conflit-t,l have only
to say, he met it as a c‘/it‘z'~tt'r1/t. To tliose
who were acquaited with his inertial liab-
its, and his religious experience, it would
have been strange if he had not thus tnet
it. He was not taken by surprise. Dcaili
was an event to which he had fatniliarized
his iriiuzl, especially for the last two years
of his life. ll;'found him ready. He had
no preparation to make. Nothing reinitia-
ed but to commit his beloved fl'it-‘lt(l>‘,\r\’ll()tY‘.
he was leaving to the care of his Heavenly
Father, and his own departing spirit to the
hands of Him whom not having seen be
loved,§aud on whom all his hopes for eter-
nity were hung. '
Let others more familiar with his career
of usefulness in public life,.spc:ik of the
well earned honors which were bestowed
upon him. Let them speak ofhim as he
deserves; as the able and honorable advo-
cate, the upright atid impartial judge, the
enlightened and patriotic statesman. But
it was my privilege to know him by a
brigliter name than these. He was a
C/zrz'si‘t'a2z. All the honors which he had
won he brought and laid upon the altar of
Jesus Christ, and there with the temper of
it little child sat down at the feet of his
divine Teaclier, to learn at His lips how a
sinner could be just with God.
Those who have Lnown most of the
operations of his mind, have marked oflate
an increase of spirituality and heavenly
mindedness, by which the Master was evi-
dently preparing him for the approiaclting
change. The last two years of his life
have been to him like the fifteen years
which God added to the life of Hezckiali.
Two years ago he was raised up from
the borders of the grave, and allowed the
intervening time to perfect his cli:ir:ic.ter
for the lieavculy state. And well did he
improve it. His atiacliment to his friends
in this world were tender and ardent; but
it was evident that the attrzictions oflienv-
en were fast. giitiing on those of earth.--
He has at length yielded to those attrac-
tions, and the last tie \‘-llittlt boutid him to
earth is severed. He is gone: and while
we are bedewiug his gr.-iv’e with our tears,
we trust he is mingling‘ with the spirits of
just inert made perfect, attuniug his harp
to the high praises of God. He is gone-
for it is not he who lies befoi-e.us; it
only the frail l.(‘.n8lTlHlli, which for a few
fleetiitg years he illllilbllell. and which is
destined to lay in the dust till the voice of
the arttliziiigel calls it forth, a spiritual
body, refitted and fitted to be the everlas-
ting abode of his glorified spirit.
And now as we turn in sadness from the
grave ofotir departed friend, (he was the
friend of us all.) what one trait of his char-
acter do we most approve—-what one re-
gard most worthy of our emulation i l-'
is his piety. This was its liriglilest gent,
its most preciousjewel.
shed such a mild lu.~<tri-- :iround the closing
Scene Ufllls‘ life. This was the dawn of

which moth mid I‘ti.~‘t'(i(illl not corrupt ;—
here is honor which never fades.
That we may secure the like precious
boon to ourselves—iliat at last we too may
res’. in hope, may the grace of our Lord
Jesus kbrist be with us all, Amen.”
Thus closed ii drntria which has filled
our community with deep (X: sudden grief;
and while it utters another lesson -of the
uncertain tenure by whicli the honors of
this world are held, it speaks, too, in Inn.
gunge whicli we are sure will be ever
cherished by his surviving, sorrowing
friends—-of the value of a c|iristian's hope
and the pcaccftil, calm beuntv of 3 chris-
tian’s death. '

A TRAVELLING WTHIEF.
On l\londay night a complaint was made
at tl.e Syracuse Police court against an
iiiiknowti f(:ll'lillB, which led to the appre
heiisiun ofan old offender. The CilClilli-
