Inside tho ball was crammed with people, who continued to arrive in a constant stream: The sursand Stripes over the organ were deeply craped. Astriking feature was the lurge pro- tion of ladies present and the preponderanos of English in the audience. Everybody was in the deepest mourning.

It seems aparadox, but the only alleviation of our grief isthe sense of the #reatness and costliness of the sucritice that has caused it. 1t is no exag- reration 9 say that the recent profoundiy touching specinele of womanty devotedness has moved tho hearts of mankind ina manner un- precedented. To Americans everywhere it cunes home with a pang of mingled sorrow and pride, und of unspeskuble domestic tenderness that none but cursetves can feel. That you will altagree that the feeling of universal sympathy expressed here by all classes has made’ us ecusible, as never before, that we aro in a efrunge but notin a foreign Jand; tbat we are, at feust, in what Hawtnorne called +The Gia Home.’ Ishould do injustice to your feelings uo Icss than tojmy own if I did not offer here our grateful acknowledgments to the sum lady who, bersclf nopunacquainted with grief, bas shown so repeatediy and touchingly how a true woman's heart can beat under the royal purple. [Tremendous cheering.] Rhetorle reta- Uve to President Garfield's noble end is outof the question. If we were allowed to follow the promptings of our own hearts, we should sum all in the sacred words: ** Well done, good and faithful servant!" THE DEATH SCENE WAS UNEXAMPLED, The whole civilized world gathered about it. Let us thank God that it was through tho mualiness, the patience, the relizious fortitude of the noble victi brotherbood was thrilled. That ‘touch of nature that makes the whole world kin" is the touch of heroism, our sympathy with Which dignities and ennobdles us." ME. LOWELL DWELT ON THE GOOP NATURE whieh Preside: t Garfield disptayed during his iuness, “He seemed good-natured even when dying. Though there were few from whom death wrenched a turer heritage, there were few who could. like Garfield. die well daily for eleven weeks, The tbre that could stend such strain is only used in the making of heroic natures. Gen. Gurticld twenty years ago offered bis Hfe for bis country. He has now died for her as truly as if he hud fallen thon. His blood bas cemented the fabric of the Uuion. His e: ample Is 2 stiraulus to bis countrymen forever.” Mr. Loweil compared l’resident Garfield's career to that of Joseph, From a similar humble beginning he had died the tenant of an sice second to none on earth. [Cheers] 10 gave many pathetic in- stances of the concern felt everywhere for Mr. Garfield during his iliness. Mr. Lowell cone ing: “It would be improper to aracter of him whois uow our Chief Magistrate; but there is no indecorum in suying what is known to ali—that he isa gentle- man of high intellizence and of unimpeachable character and ability. Iam not a believer that a democratic more than avy other form of gov- ernment will work of itself: but, in common with you all, Ihave imperturbable faith in the intelligence, and rood sense of the mn people, and in tie destiny of the American Republic.” EESOLUTIONS deploring the great public misfortune of a death which plunged a nation in lasting sorrow; sym- Pathizing with the Inte President's mother and widow, and acknowledging the a‘fectionate so- licitude of the Queen and people of England, were agopted in sofemn silence, all the audience ristaz to their feet.
