The floral decoration of the grave of Con- federate soldiers buried at Holly wood, Rich- mond, Va.,for which extensive preparations had been madé took place yesterday. Busi- ness Was suspended in the city, and nearly the entire white population repaired to the ‘cemetery during the day to take part in or Witness the memorial honer. There was no speaking or formal ceremony. Seventy-five delegates were present at the Kentucky Democratic convention. Speeches were made by General Ward, Colonel Ken- ney, General Crittenden and ex-Govyernor Robinson. and Generals Boyle and Whitaker, denouncing the rebels and enjoining the sup- port of Belling tor clerk of the Courtof Ap- peals. The convention passed resolutions un- qualifiedly endorsing President Johnson. Governor Fenton, of New York, has madea speech. He was conciliatory in tone, but spoke strengly in favor of equal rights for all men before the law, and of exacting security for the nation’s future by such meaas as are essential. He expressed his belief that all would yet unjte in a safe, practicable, and satisiactory plan of reconstraction. In the case of W. Law, contesting the consti- tutionality of the test oath as applied to law- yersin tbe United States courts at Savannah Ga, that the act of Congress approved Jan- uary 24, 1865, so far as it wasintended to apply this care, is repugnantto the Constitution of the United ¢ tates. The Colonial and Immigration Society, re- cently chartered by the Kentucky Legislature, has chosen Generai Thomas as president, General R. W. Jobnson vice president, and F. R. Cheatham secretary. s Mrs. Davis arrived at Fortress Monroe Wednesday morning, from Baltimore, on bourd the steamer James T, Brady, from her prolonged visit here. THE SCOTT OBSEQUIES. The remains of Lieutenant General Winfield Scott are laid in asmail room in Roe’s Hotel, West Point. New York, in charge of a guard of honor, detailed by Major General Cuilom, to remain on duty until the funeral is over. The room 1s literally bare. No furniture or pictures, no home surroundings or tokens of Ne nothing but the stiffened corpse, the full-dressed — honor, and the paid ser- is of the . And yet there is a certain austere fitness of things about all this chil] and formality and disregard of sentiment, for, as is well known, General Scott was not familiar with any, even with those nearest to him, nor did he at any time encourage demonstrations of affection or seem te Tecate the tokens of love, which make the life of ordinary man a garden. The coffin is being constructed by Brown. of Grace Church, New York. It has been ascer- tained that the required length of the coffin for the deceased general’s gigantic proportions will be six feet nine inches. The care taken to preserve the remains hss been so far most snecesstul. The face of the general looks to-day even more natural than within a few hours after death. The yellowish tinge of the skin has almost disappearea. The = selected for the temporary deposito- ry of the remainsisa point in the cemetery situated in the northwest part of the grounds, known as the German Flats. It is & censpicu- ous position, and adjoins the graves of the West Point officers who fell in the late war. It is the intention of General Callum, howey- eT, to remove the body ata future time to an- other and more prominent place, where the monument, which will undoubtedly be erect- ed, can be visible, not only from all parts of the national reservation, but frem different points on the Hudson river. It would be an appro- priate thing to construct a bronze monument of the guns captured in the Mexicau war, which lie on the green plateau in front of the Acade- my. , Unless the military of New York and garri- son of Governor's Isiand participate in the fa- neral there will not be much display at the ob- sequies to-day, for the whole military force at West Point, including the regulars (sappers and miners, and a detachment of artillery and cavalry) and cadets, number only about seyen bundred men. Still, fall military honors will be accorded to tne departed chief. In compli- ance with the wishes of the family the Teligi- ous ceremonies will, probably, be confined to the Episcopal Church, with & brief discourse by Professor French, the chaplain who attend. ed General Scott in his last_momenis, and ad- ministered the sacrament to him. The General's arrival at West Point on Thursday, the 10th instant, being unheralded. the usual salute was not fired: but the next morning General Callum ordered the salu‘e, and when the old hero heard the guns he drew himself up to his full height, looked around proudly, yet sorrowfully, and, as if impressed with the solemnity of the approaching event, said,as if in soliloquy, thenow memorable words, «The last of human glory is passing away.” of the House tenant Genera est Point: Messrs.

The address appeals for an effort on behalf of the poorly paid ministry, and directs atrention to the field of labor among the treedmen in the 4 cese. Appended to the address is the m opinion of Drs. F. Donaldson and G. Sha: x, which recommends complete repose and a change of seene as necessary to restore the bishop toa state of health to enable him to re- turn to the duties of the diocese A committee of three clerical and three lay members was appointed to consider so much of the address as relates io the iliness of tne bishop, and to report suitable resolutions thereon; and so much of the address as reters to the treedmen was referred to a special com- mittee. Rev. Mr. Tillinghast, of Georgetown parish, presented the application of certain partes in Georgetown parish, asking leave to establich a Dr. Samson in the Southern Baptist Con- vention. Editor Star :—Dr. Samson has just returned from the session of the Southern Bap Con- veution, held at Russellville, Kentucky, aud hus made the following statements to friends, who have shown to him the report copie? from tke Chicago Times. It was nateral that a cas- ual visitor to a southern religieus convention Should be prepared to expect political aliu- sions when so much time is spent in many kindred gatherings upon matters that relate directly to political questions. The first three days of the conyention were devoted entirely to the devising of means to sustain their mis- sions and educational enterprises in the pres- ent financial depression at the South. The fact that his allusions alone, and thaten the Subject of the Theological Seminary, among so many men, speaking onso muny topics, are qpoee as haying political bearings, is an in- ication how enurely the members devoted themselves to their work. This fact. ac well as the topic discussed, ard also Dr. Samson's known course 4s to polétics for nearly twenty- five years et Washington, under niwe execu- tive administrations, is a sufficient intimation that his address was cerelessly reported. Men represen different religious organizations from New York and#hiladelphia spoke in the warmest terms of edmiration of ihe earnest and Christian, spirit with which that bedy of southera men devoted themselves to their work, and to the justness of the allusions which were made to the ' history of the erigin of the commities on parishes Rev. E. Christian presented # resolt pealing that clause in the 5¢ constitution which refers Assistant bishop of the diocese, requiring ‘bat ce thereof sba)l be given at annual con. vention, snd the election not to take place un- ul the succeeding annual election On motion, the subject was laid on tae tadle for ube present. Illness and Death of Gen. Scott. The West Point cerrespondent of the New York Times publishes the following statement of Major Gen. Cullom, commanding that post, in reference to the illness and death of Lieut. Gen. Scott: “As an aide to Gen. Scott, and a member of luis last military family, I was necessarily & greatdeal with him, and saw mach of him. He was always & diffieult man to satisfy, and yet one ef the most charming persons J ever met. He was apt to be exacting, capricious and peremptory, but always just. At the commencement of the wur he saw clearly what it would come to, and recognized the vast proportions it would assume as someting beyond the compass of his failing powers. He very wisely asked to be retired. for he knew that bis health could not withstand the fearfal pressure that would be brought to bear upon it.
