Martin, the me- dinm who was so often consulted by Ward, was on cross-examioation in the Ward will case to- ar, when Mr. Pond asked if she conld give the jury & sample of a trance, and of conversation in German whilemn it. To tho surprise of the crowded audience, ghe gaid she would, aud im- mediately withdrew to the land of shades, and addressed those present 1n German, As Pond knew nothing of German, he was somewhat badgered by the lawyers, the Judge even joining in, saying that the witness was his, snd it belonged to him to question her. The Court stenographer, who spesks German, asked ber in that ianguage, ** who are you ?" and the prompt response wag, ‘‘Andrew KEarthaldus,” and be requested prompt questioning, as he could not stay long. Nobody who could epeak Gorman bad any question to ask, but they understood the German tongue in which the spook spoke, and after a four minunte trance she recovered and afirmed that she knew nothing of what had passed. William B. Ely, of Newton, Mass., who is en- gaged to Mise Mary Ward, was sworn. and was crogs-examined somewhat closely s to the movements of Capt. Ward's sops im- mediately on the announcement of his death, and the fact was ascertained that Millin came up to town at once with Charles and the witness, apd lefs them at the Moffat Block with intent to call on s lawyer. 'An old Iady, who was a clairvoyant bere eight- een years ego, was 2lso called to show that there Is now living io Ohio an illecitimate and insane g0 of Capt. Ward. This piece of tamuly hisiory romes to light to show that the insanity of Capt. Ward's children is not to be attributed to the first Mra, Ward. PROCEEDINGS ON FRIDAY. Detroit Tribune, Oct. 1. T SIr. Griffith was recalted for crose-examination br Mr. Pond: He was asked if, when be came back from New York in tho wioter of 1873, he baa not told T. C. Owen in Capt. Ward's office that Charles Ward bad been absent m the party go long that Capt. Ward was aoxions about bim, and sent Mr. Griflith to hunt him up ; that Mr. G. found him in a house of ill fame with the Clerk of the Court; that Charles left them =gain in Albany; that Capt. Ward unbosomed himself to Mr. Griftith, and expressed anxiety a8 to the conduct of his sons and fear lest they :onlg squander his property if it was left to em Mr. Komeyn objected to €0 much of this in- giry 28 related to the haurts of members of e family. Mr. Pond ipsisted that it was com- petentto show such matters in order to show that Capt. Ward's disposition of his property was & paturel consequence of his belief thatthe babits of his sons were such es to juslify his apprehensions that his property would go to waste io their hande. The Judge sustained the objection, and Mr. Pond modifiea the question and dnnz‘d its form, Mr. Romevn continuing to pbject. Atlength Mr. Pood aeked distinctiy if Mr. Griffith had not found Charies in a bouse of ill-fame, and reported that fact to Capt. Ward last evening. Mr. Grifiith appealed to the Judge to know if ho must anewer that question, [ramed 28 it was, 60 a8 to 1nclude several facts. The Judge told bim if it was all so, he could an- Bwer it ; 1f not he conld eay * No.” Mr. Griffith gaid it was notall true, and an- swered ** No." Being farther urged, he said that he conld not say that it was a bouse of ill-fame where he fourd Cobarles ; he found him near the Springer House, with the Clerk of the Court : he don't remember whether be told T. C. Owen that he found him in such s place asis referred to; he don’t rerpember_that he told Mr. Owen that Cagl Ward had given Charles 50 to see the sights with, and that Chatles had spent it all that night ; be might have ssid that Capt. Ward was snxious about Charles leaving the train at Albany, but that his anxiety wos relieved when he found that Charies had probably gone to Trov 0 eec a girl : be does not think he toid Owen that Capt. Ward unbosomed himself with regard to his sons. In Mr. Griftith's conversation with Capt. Ward on returniog from New York, the 1atter said more about his boys thau he had ever said to Mr. Griffith before ; he said he should put his property in the bands of his wife and of trustees, who chould manage it, for the use of the children; he did mnot want the boys to bave absomiie control of it ; Mr. Griffith does not remember that Capt. ‘Ward said that 50 far a8 his boye wero con- caroed, his life had been a faiiure, nor does tho witnoes remember that he told Capt. Leo, of Ypailsoti, that Capt. Ward had said 80 : the wit- nees himself may have expressed the opinion. THE CELEBRATED MES.

The Streets Crowded with Citizens and Visitors---A Procession Two Miles Long. A Glowing Eulogy Delivered by Ex- Senator Fowler- BSpecial Dupatch to The Chicago Tribune, Nasgvicre, Ten., Oct. 2.—By the time of the formation of the procession, every avenue lead- ing thereto was completely closed with buman barricades,—eager spectators, who, in life, An- drew Jolinson loved to serve, snd in death they had come to honor his memory. The spectators consisted not only of citizens of Nashville and its immediate vicinity, but the trains brought from all parts of the State their quota of visitors to participate inand gaze npon the great memorisl ceremonies. Nearly every county in the Stato was represented. Military companies from dis- tant cities were assigned places in the proces- sion. As s00n as 2 pagsage-way could be msde the procesgion moved. Everywhero along the line of march the same restless, densely-packed apec- tetors awaited them. The great object im the procession around which interest more partico- larly concentrated. and that which told more clearly the object of the grand procession, was the catafalque, one of the most magnificent ar- rapgements of the kind ever gotten ump. It was 18 feet long, 20 high, and 8 broad. From top o bottom it was covered with black vel- vet, draped most artistically. Upon the raised dnis was s magmficent casket, with & laurel wreath in the centre above the canopy. The inner trimming was red, white, and blue. At the top was o golden eagle, draped 1n mourn- ing, bawing a wreath of laurel in his beak. On each of the four corners wers flags trimmed with ailver fringe Jace. On either side of the catafalque was the monogram A. J.. the coat of arms of North Carolina,bis native State,snd Ten- neesoe his adopted State, while a banpor bearing the original thirteen Siates adorned tho front. In s promment poaition in front of tbe catafalque was carried a superb white silk booner with gold trimmings, with an allegorical picture typifying the early struggle and subsequent high exaltation of the | remarkable map, from the obscure cabin 1n the valley to tbe White House on the mountain. The catafslquo was drawn by twenty richly, caparisoned white ateeds. Upon a decorated wagon, with seats arranged in pyramidal form, set thurty-seven young ladies dressed in white, with black ornamentations, each representing s State. Tennessee stoud above all, and in the centre a Jad 1n deep mourning, and with bowed hdéad, gave an idea of Teunessee's irial at the loss of her gifted son. ¢ the head of the column rode Gen. Penny- bucker, Chief Marshal, 1n full regimentals, while at his side Gen. Cheatbam, both brave soldiers, the latter a Confederate and one of Johnson's opponents in the Congressional race of 1872. en of all political predilections were 1n tho procession, mauy having even been Johnson's enemies while living. This was remarked as forcibly illustrating the ’Fence and good will ex- isting among classes in Tennessee. An immense assemblage gathered in front of Mrs. President Polk's to witness the salates given her. she receiving them with gracious smiles. The procession, two miles long, Was ime posing. Mrs. Patterson, eldest daughter of do- ceased, the Jady of the White House during his adwministration, A. Johuton, Jr., the only son, and A. Johnson Patterson. grandson of tbe ex- President, witnessed the procession from the Maxwell House. The Houre of Representatives, where Senator Fowler delivered the oration to-night was most elaborately deco- rated with flags, festoons, and mourning em- blems. {70 the Associated Prese) Nasavitrx, Teon.

Dur- ing the movements of the procession minute s were fired, and one every fifteen minutes thronghout the day, closing with a national sa- lute of thirty-seven guns at sunset. Ex-Senator Fowler delivered the memorial ad- dress at tho Capitol this evening. The address was very elaborate, reguiring two hours for its deuvery, end is o resuwme of the ex-President's private and political history from chiidhood to the grave, closing as follows: His work 18 doae, though his strength is una- bated and his inteliect has grown with hiseyears, and his heart hae enlarged and mellowod by his confliots, cslamities, and sorrows, Mot un- warned, God suddenly called him to another sphere of being.

Deposits During the Day Largely Exceed the Disburse- ments. Additional Particulars of the Recent Bos- ton Failures, SAN FRANCISCO. Sax Fraxcisco, Cal., Oct. 2.—By 9:80 this morning & crowd began to gather in the vicinity of the Bank of Califorma. Inside every prep- aration had beea made for the opening. The President, Directors, and members of the syndi- cate were on hand with smiling faces, and look- ing a8 thongh & load had been lifted from their shoulders. The President stated that the bank was fully prepared to pay all demands on pre- sentation except such as had been provided for otherwise, and that ihere was no doubt of the sbility to go om with bummess without forther difficulty. By 10 o'clock the streets and sidewalks were jammed with people. At the appointed hour the doors were swang.open, amid the cheers of the crowd, which at once made a rush, blocking the space outside the counters. Evidently by farthe larger proportion of those present were there as look- erseon, though the servicesof the tellers were at once called into requisition, and the counters were lined with those presenting checks. It was axpected that's large demand would be made upon the bank, not from a wans of confidence, but simply from the need of coin, which has been &0 long locked up, At the present writing, the crowd 1s surging in and out of the buildiog. Flags are mastheaded on California street and a salute 18 being fired from Meiggs' wharf. Coun is now flowing both ways at the Bank of California, large amounts being deposited, and it 18 thought that the deposits duriog the day will equal, or perhaps exceed, the payments. The best of feeling prevails. LATER. The Bank of California remained open until 1 p. m., an honr later than customary ou Saturday. During three hours the amount of deposits ro- ceived exceeded checks paid by about $750,000. Confidence swems complotely re-established.

Bostox, Mass,, Oct. 2.—It scems that Shep- ard, Hall & Co. suspended payment Thursday afternoon, slthough the fact did not become known until yesterday afternoon. The various branches are Hall & Co., of New York; Hall & Co., of Montreal ; Shepard, Davis & Co., of Bur- lington, Vt. ; and Shepard, Hall & Co., of Og- densburg, N. Y. Tho failure was generallyun- expected, but it Isrumored that a prominent commission dealer refused to sell them lumber 1ast week except for cash. Neither the assets nor liabilities aro yet fully known, but a meeting of creditoms will be called very soon. The direct liabilities here are placed at Zrom $1,500,000 to $2,000,000. Boston, Montreal, and Borlington banks have large amounts of their paper. The alleged causes of ths failure are dopression of toe market, inability to gell on satisfactory terms, large tracts of real estate in Canads, and the losses sustained throuch the failure, about two years ago, of E. B, Eddy, a lumber manufacturer of Ottawa. Their loss by this failure was very heavy, and it is said they rocently discovered that the Ottaws house would not be sble to meet its second payment to the Boston firm, amounting to 183,000 in gold, now nearly due. Mr. Shepard is special partoer to the amount of $45,000 with Jobn F. Bispbam, lumber dealer, of Dorchester, who may be obliged to suspond. Other firms arereported to be involved in the disaster, but it i3 not yet ascertained whether the reports are true. & The firm of C. & M. Cox is reported to bave sasets from one-third to one-hall its liabilities. ‘With regacd to soveral recent failures there is & growing opinion that they were unnecessary, but were rosorted to as m convenient way of closing up business in a dall time, and, s a con- sequence, suspicion is taking the place of confi- deuco as to houses which yet give no sign of weakness.

Bixteen houses fortuoate enough to escape the previous visitation were tumbled down and their contents totally destroyed. This flood laat- ed three hours.
