He was dressed im black, and fooked ratuer sad | and~ careworn, At ten minutes to twelve Lishop Doane, preceded by eleven assisting clergymen in white surplices, ascended from the sa- cristy In the basement and entered the chancel, where each in turn took the seat assigned him. ‘The galleries at either side were lined by people, mostly clad in mourning, and the choir was turonged by the two score choriscers engaged for the occasion, together with the members of the West Point band, ‘rhe dirge, Handei’s “Samson”, was sung by the choir, the whole congregauion standing, When the music ceased the ciergy, two by two, proceeded to the yestivule, followed oy the pail-bearers, composed Of eight general officers, headed by Generals Scho- field and Meade. From vbe vestibule the coifin was earned by the escort to the chancel. ‘The usual prayers of the Episcopal service were read, the band played @ solemn air and tbe choir sung a farewell hymn:— Bring the laarela, bring the bays, Strew the hearse aud strew the ways; Glorious bero, may ve Peace and honor ever have! Amid the soiemn peals of the -organ the remains were borne from the church and placed in the hearse, followed in regular order by the mourners, Presi- deni, members of the Cabinet, members of Congress, officers of the army and navy and State authorities. ‘THE DISTINGUISHED IN ATTENDAN Among them were President Grant, Generals Dent national! tribute to departed worth.

THE HERO’S TRIBUTE. ‘Tne day opened with a cloudless sky and witn the balmy breath and life-giving treshness of spring. It might have been more 1n consonance with the mood of thought which made men deplore the sharp, unseen blow which carried off one whose great character was only just grow- ‘mg to be understood, that the sky should be draped in mourning, and that the heavy clouds should rain down tears of sympathy. But better the philosophy wnat mitigates aMiction, and better in the bright sunlight to think of the departed hero, well, Senators Fenton, Wilson, Warner, Cameron whayer, General French, Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate, together with Representatives Slocum, Lo- 2, Gartield, C.

HOW TROY LOOKED AND FELT. From an early hour this meraiog the town exhib- dved indications of something unusual being about wo occur, ‘Troy, usuaily 80 dull and prosy, appeared roused into # Condition of abuorpial activity. Av half-past six the boat trom New York drew up at the pier, near River street, and Oischurged over 1,000 passengers, 800 of Whom were soldiers belong- ang tothe New York garrison. At a litte afier seven the train from New York brought a host of distinguished people, foremost of whom was General Grant. At half-past ten an- other train entered the depot bearing Governor Hoffman and staff and all the State officers and poth houses of the Legislature, making a cavalcade ot almort endless length. Getting breaktast at tbe Troy House in the early morning was a bard matier enough, but seeking dinner, at the time when the Procession broke up, in the vicinity of four o'clock, ‘Was more than enough to shake the patience of Job. THE BUSTLE OF THE MORNING. The counwry people, ever eager for anything that promises to make an imposing show, swarmed mto town before ten and filled the sidewaiks for several miles. All were weil dressed. some of the ‘women were overdressed, but the good motive which animaied them counterbalanced their departure from the rules of taste. ‘The bustie in the hotels, where mighty men With big mustacnes, ponderous epaulewes and clanking spurs jostied port aldermen and reverend Senators was something to set the country mind crazy. ‘‘Who 1s this?’ and ‘who is that?’ were in- terrogatories biurted out at the sight of anybody who bore any resemblance to any penny print in ‘water colors pretending to be a likeness of the great Ulysses or tue renowned ‘Tecumseh, Order prevailed everywhere. Some little jostling occurred an the neighborhood of the hotel, when an awkward company of cavairy, Calling themselves regulars, ‘Dut more like Bashi Bazouks, drew up to take posi- tion. From the time tbe line began to form, at nine o'clock, a constant roil of muffled drumas was kept up till the procession moved. ‘Tue military arrange- ments velng in charge ofgthe veteran Genera: Mc- Dowell, aided by Sherman, Who arrived tue previous: evening, every confidence Was entertained that no hitch was likely Lo occur. DEPTH OF THE POPULAR SORROW. But take ali the military pomp away, dispense ‘With the wstnetic aids of martial music and brignt flags draped in mourning, and still the funeral as it passed through the streets, lined as they were from end to end with the emblem of grief and desolation, would have produced the same profound emotion shat stirred this community to-day. MOURNING TO EXTRAVAGANCE. Around the corner from the Troy House is a new ‘and massive pie of building surmounted by a Man- sard roof, The first floor is occupied by dry goods and other stores, the upper floors by lawyers and insurance offices. Over the immense front of this structure to-day, between everyg window, from Mansard rool to plate @glass front, floated something ike a thousand yards of real crape. This, perhaps, was the most unprecedented display ever witucssed one any occasion of alike character. Ali tbe pubhe buildings had mourmag devices in white and black, and there were few houses along the entire route that failed toshow some outward mark of respect to the memory of the dead woldier. Oi the line of the procession the same might be said; in fact, except those who were too poor Lo afford it, all endeavored to have ashare in Vesuilying their regard for the memory of the finest Union soldier of the war, the one Who wore \ie Nower of a blameless life tarough good and evil re- Ort, IN Success as Well 4s I adversity THE PRESIDENT HOLDS A RECEPTION. At ven o'clock It was arranged that President Grani should give a reception at the house of air, J. M. Francis. It was a simple aiJair, con- finea entirely, as was proper, to gentiemen. ‘Ihe President was assisted in receiving by Senator Fen- ton, GeneraisgPorter and Dent and Secretaries Boutweil and Creswell. Tne Congressional delegation, the members of the New York Legisla- ture, members o1 the Common Council, of the judi- ciary, army and militia officers, together with many rivate citizens, cailea in the hour and a hall al- joted to the reception. Grant was, pernaps, less gracious tnan usual. Anyhow, he wore no smile upon his iron-cast countenance, aud went through the operation of snaking hands with more than his customary look of martyrdom. THE HERO’S BIER. In the morning about ten o’ciock several persons who were entitied to admission paid a visit to the charch, where the remains of the General were laid out in state. The expression ‘‘state” exaggerates ‘Whe simplicity of manner in which the casket on its lowly bier iay exposed to view in the vestibuie of the church. Above it four Union fags were drawn from a point in the groined roof of the vestibule to the pillars at either side, and this formed the simpie catafaique. The casket, raised a few feet-above the fluor, was buried in a lavish pro- fasion of ivy. evergreens and immortelles. White flowers wovenfinto a wreath were at the head, con- necting Witn # cross and star in the ceutre, and end- ang with another wreath at the foot. Around the edge of the coffin extended a fine border of evergreens, Amterspersed with small, delicate white flowers, mative to the valleys of California. The immortetles which excited such very general admiration were presented by some Jadies of Cleveland. A guard of eight artillery soidiers, wearing crape on the jeft arm, weated shemselves in the vicinity of the remains and kept patient, silent watch in the sombre light that entered through the high and deep-stained gothic windows. Two ladies sat alone inside the vestibule, sewing, with loving fingers, mourning badges for the men. The church was all empty, but outside crowds of peopie quickiy gathered and filled the neighboring streets long before the religious ceremonies began. When the delegated representa fives at length arrived, THE SCENE IN THE CHURCIT was very impressive. The chancel and choir were draped in-mourning. On either side the former a branching candelabra threw a softened light on the railing . Lewis Southwick, 03, tery and Joseph Tillinghast, Major McDonaid, and Mrs. Colonel Wm. G. Willard. Ali were dressed in deep mouruing. To the right of the chancel the members of both houses; New York Legislature nad ap entire row of pews assigned them, and to the left various local delegations from the Common Councils, the colleges, the societies of the town, the Masonic lodges and ‘the Grand Army of the Republic. The ceutre aisie was devoted to the generals and officers of the army, the Cougresstonal delegation and civic dignitaries trom various parte of the country. The foul ensemble had an imposing effect. Ji was a gathering of great names, of men long fa- Mlliar to the nation in arms, stavesmanship, oratory, stall, ‘Twenty-fifth regiment, of Aibany, Colonel Friediander.

Arrived at Oakwood Cemetery the milina and local military organizations drew up to the right of the road and presented arms. ‘rhe battalion of regulars composing the firing party and the rest of tue procession entered the cemetery gate. Around the vault, where the earthly resting place of the departed evermore shall be wll time dis- solves iu eternity, the companions of his glory gathered, and thick and trooping tie memories must have come to the minds of many there of those terrible and familiar battles where the blood of kinsmen flowed in rivers. The customary burial service Was read, ana then, at the word of com- mand, three hundred soldiers, drawo up in the straightest alignment, fred in measured suc- cession three musketry volleys. Every head Was uncovered as the signal was given to Close the vault. Sad faces were numerous in the dense throng of military men who stood 1n reverent atti- tude before the tomb whic contained ali that was mortal of their old and well tried comrade, Tue grave of the dead vero stands near the brow of the hill overlooking the beautiful valley of Cohoes and the silvery sweeping Hudson. ‘The view 13 maguiticent. Looking out from between the trees the eye wanders over a vast area of varied and cul- uvated scenery. In this broad land no grander rest- ing place for the lilustrious dead could be found, and there let nim rest, with the circlet of eternal hills around him in the bosom cf the great Empire state, proud to be the custodian of his remains and proud to claim him as the brightest star in the galaxy of her adopted catidren. MRS. GENERAL TROMAS was not present at the funeral. She is now en route from San Francisco, and will arrive nere probably to-morrow. She attended the iuneral services proper, wich were held at San Fraucisco betore the departure of tne remains for the East, THE RETURN OF THE MILITARY, a Coming back from the cemetery the military found the streets and sidewalks thronged with an await- ing multitude throuzh which, with some little dif- culty, they made their way to the centre ol the town. I young girl in and around Troy seemed to nave sed for the occasion and sallied out to witness the pageant, At tae Hudson River Ratiroad depot an immense assembly awaited the trams going south, Abouta quarter past four General Grant, accompanied by Mrs, McDowell and a little lair haired giri of tour or five years, eutered the ladies’ waiting room, andin a few enia afterwards started tor the drawing room coach attacned to the twenty minutes past four tram. A rusi of rude and curious people was tnstantly formed in the wake of the President, and as be tore himseif through the opening leading to the platiorm the lit- ule girl he was leading was actually knocked down and trampled in the barbarous eagerness of the crowd to get a look at the fea- tures of Ulysses, Fortunately nothing serious happened the little girl peyond the loss of her hat. The President climbed over the piattorm of the car in front of him and took refuge in a drawing room coach attached to a train on the other side. Here the clamorous cheers of the crowd drew hii out on the platform, where he simply bowed and retired. LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR WOODFORD’S ORATION in the evening, at the Troy Club, was eminent for its beauty of diction and happy expression of re- gard and admiration for the great deccased. Honors to the Departed Hero. In respect tothe memory of the distinguished patriot soldier, who was yesterday interred at Troy, ali the fags of the city were hoisted at half mast. The government buildings wore the usual insignia of sorrow in Grooped banners, and many of the commercial houses were similarly decorated. Memorial Services Chicago in Honor of General Thomas. CHICAGO, April 8, 1870, ‘The memorial services in honor of the late General Thomas drew an immense crowd to Farwell Hall to-night. ‘The services were of a solemn and im- pressive character, and consisted of a dirge, a me- morial Hymn, prayer by Right Reverend Bishop Whitehouse and an address by Governor Paimer.

To THe Eprtor oF THE HERALD:— It has occurred to me that in your well directed efforts to ameliorate the conaition of society by showing up, through the columns of your widely read journal, the evils arising out of imperfections in our laws, and m many instances the maladminis+ tration of them, that you would no doubt give space for a cursory review of the inner workings of some of our government institutions, as from those circles iv 1s presumed that all the rings of lesser magnitude radiate, spreading their influence to every quarter of the Union where Hxecutive patronage is bestowed, With this view periit me to call attention of your Teaders to the New York Custom House. Tis 1¢ is generally supposed is the richest “plum’’. in the gift of the President, and 1s eagerly sought for by persons wno rave won for themselves honor- aple distinction either iu the halls of iegisiation or in the commercial world, ‘To one of the latter class has the mantle of patron- age been worthliy bestowed—a gentleman who for half a century has been Identified with the shipping interests of the port of New York as a successiul merchant. It may be reasonably imerred that such an im- Portant office would call forth all the energy of a vigorous intellect to cope with the various and intri- cate details of each particular department, and it 18 shown under the new régime that the present Col- lector, from his thorough knowledge of marine laws, ig eminently fitted to direct and administer them for the mterest of the merchant and the government. Yet errors will sometimes occur in the best regu- ward Seals jes, and @ ventilation of them may correct e evil. Each branch or bureau of the Custom House has a correlative bearing one to the other, each having a primary object, viz.:—The collection of revenues or duties due to the government upon the various im- ports and exports. To carry out the several details incident to their collection a large clerical rorce 1s necessarily employed, each one clothed with a certain amount of brief authority in the particular sphere of duty to which he may be assigned; brief 10 may be truly said, for with every change of adminis- tration the official guillotine is put in motion until the greed of each member of Congress or ward polt- tician 1s satiated in replacing each sacrifice with a new “victim.” Tne fabled story of the good old man and his donkey finds an apt illustration in the affairs of the Custom House, each laction clamor- ing. for change and each intent on sinister motive in effecting the interests of nis constituents. The evils arising out of this system are chargeable to our gov- ernment, and so long as men are selected to fill the various government offices, without regard to their peculiar fitness or moral worth, so long will the Offices cease to be sought for by men of mteliectual enpeetiy: or sterling probity. ‘The temptations are manifold in this particular oranch of the government service, For example, an importer intent on defrauding the government of the revenue due on his importations has only to approach the officer, through some indirect means, tender him a bribe (nandsome, of course), and he winks at the traud, Kecent illustrations of gigantic fraud are familiar to your reagers—in the ate and classiticauion of sugars’’—the ‘cases of silks im- ported”? as pearl buttons, by “Buchanani’’--ana the cases of more recent date, in which “silks were smuggled in French clocks.” Those ere Cases here vaiuable considerations were bestowed on Wie arging oilicers, and cap It be wondered at that such irauds can have place, when, taking into con- sideration the insecare tenure o1 his oilice, poor pay, aud his intuitive Knowledge tat he can secure some better position in the government service (i he 13 removed) through the Alderman of tue ward, Where te inay have ‘voted early” and “voted often?” ‘The system of tendering gifts and the acceptance of them pervades neariy every branch of the © toms department in this city, Whcre the oficial can aid the importer or the smuggler by collusion. My assertion for these facts 18 fully corroborated by evidence now on file in the United States courts; yet im ninety and nine cases out of every hunured the public can know novhing of the minor cases of fraud, or rather maladministration of the law wich permits it. The courts take cognizance only of such cases a8 come before them, exceeding the sum of $500, the chances of a dividend (to the seizing oilicer) being so remote that the importer 1s advised to coimn- promise the case by submitting his cneck to tne Bureau of Rewards and Punishments, which 1s de- nominated the Tenti division. This plum 1s then divided into four parts—the Collector, Surveyor, Naval Officer and Inapector— each recelving one-fourth of the net proceeds. To give coloring and legal effect to the division of the plum a report is sent to the Comp- trolier of Customs at Washington, where the case 1s enveloped im red tape and allowed to remain from six to twelve months; at the expiration ot that time the award receives oiticial sanction and a warrant for the four divides sent to the Auditor’s Bureau. If the Inspector cau obtain kKnowleage of the fact he is lucky; if not, he 1s in- formed that he can have the claim cashed at a reauc- tion of twenty per cent. ‘Ine puor man’s mouth wa- tering for the plum, or to share with his family, he Telinquisnes his claim, and a check signed by the “head centre of the ring,’? on the banking house of Joun J. Cisco & Co, is handed to him, If he needs more than he has aciaim for he can mortgage nis month’s salary at the same percentage; but im such @ case the twenty per cent may not appear usurious or unjust when {t 18 considered that the “ring” runs the risk of the Inspector’s removal on the 10th or 15th of the month, and greater caution is now exer- cised, as the removals are made at the rate of twenty every month. But when a doubt exists as to the latter case recourse is had to one ta the “ring.” From him it is ascertained tne day when decapita- tion will take place, and if it is kuown that the in- teresis of the “ring” are likely to suffer a brief re- spite 1s obtained until the Indebtedness 1s liquidated. ‘The officer's anthority, in making seizures, should be exercised with that mice sense of discrimination that would enable him botndae whether it would be consistent with justice and right to make it, yet ft 18 (with some) absolutely absurd vo expect a nicety of sentiment or justice in them. Such commodities Wil not pay, and from this indiscriminate exercise of authority arise abuses of the most fagrant char- acter. For example, @ gentleman arriving from Havana, per steamship Bagie, furuisued himself with two hundred choice cigars, oue box of which ue smoked or allowed his companions du voyage to do 80; the other box he opened and kindly invited the officer to heip himseif to the weed, stating that thev were of a cholce brand. The inspector did as re- quested, but instead of accepting the genteman’s invitation in the hteral sense, he took the whole box, aud sent it to the Bureau of Rewards.and Punisn- ments, where the gentleman followed and received nineiy-five cigars, after paying a wifle of fay. ‘This lack of discrimination extends to the inspec- tresses, where a nicer sense of delicacy 18 suppose to exist, but the same msauate greed for dollars and cents shuts ont the fuer feelings and the coarser ones prevati. One ilustration will suffice, although the number can be multiplied. ‘The Cella, from London to this port, arrived, bringing a number of steerage ana cabin passengers. Auiong the latter was a lady of education and refinement, who, prgvious to em- barkation, purchased a silk dress and had it cut by a dressmaker m1 London, but, not being quite finisned, tne jady, Mrs. amused herself on the first day out by sewing the garment. On the second out the lady was so prostrated with sickness thay sewing Was out of the question, The stewardess in- formed her that the “female searchers” at New York would take her and dress to we Custom House. She indignantly spurned tue idea, but, being ignorant of the “customs of the country,” she concluded to take the advice of tae stewardess, and fastened the skirts of the unfinished garment on io her person; but, alas! for human incredulity, the searcher came in the garo of her own sex, disrobed her of the unfinisned garment and sent it w the ‘Tenth division, where the books of that bureau will show the division ‘of a lew dollars to Tom, Dick, Harry and Jennie. What rendered tus case pecuiariy harrowing was the fact that Mrs. — was bordering on the sphere of motherhood, and she reasonably looked for sym- pathy under taose circumstauces. But no. She was classed witon Buchanani and others, who made a pro- fession of smuggling, and nau reduced it to a system. The prairies of Mlunots are represented as covered with water in many places, the result of the recent Tains and melting snow. It will take many days of Sunshine to make them fit for cultivation.
