Tribute to the Memory of Itlalor-Ueneral (xeorae la. laomiu. One of the largest gatherings ever assem bled in the Academy of Music convened there last evening to testify their respect to the memory of the late Major-General George II. 1 nomas. On the stage was assembled a brilliant body of army officers and civilians, among which, besides the officers of the meeting. were Generals Drum, llobert O. Tyler, Delos, Sacket, Van Vliet, Charles C. Cresson, Buff, J. P. Bankson, Hoffman, William B. Thomas; Colonels Brua, Farnsworth, George G. Meade; Barstow, A. C. Wildraick, Latta, S. B.

A.: Assistant Paymaster Pmnkett, U. . N.; Judges Ludlow, Peirce, Paxson; District Attorney Charles Gibbons, and many others, The Lincoln Institute Cadets, under the command of Lieutenant Billings, of the City Guards, were upon the stage, as were also the First Troop ol Philadelphia City Cavalry. The auditorium was oooupied by Posts of the Grand Army of the ltepublio and city military organizations, while the rest of the house was niiea wita laaies and centlemen, The orchestra was oooupied by the Liberty Cornet Band, which furnished the mnsio for the eveninar. Mayor i ox opened the proceed ings by nominating Major-General George tjr. jxieaue ua 1.110 ucucu w ua snooting, which met wnn unanimous approval. General Meade then addressed the meeting, saying that his association with the laie General Thomas extended over a space of ten yenrs, and in that time he learned to re spect him and revere his character. He did not think it necessary to dwell upon his career, which was so well remembered by the community, but would say that he was a man who never swerved from the line of his duty. After the eleotion of a number of Vice- Presidents and Secretaries, a preamble and resolutions were offered by Major William McMichael, as follows: Whereat, In the prima of life, at the height of Ills tisi'liilnran, and while In the dlscharga or hM duty, the nation lias loot by doath Major-Uenernl Usoriro 11. Thomas, a soldier than whom no nobler U re corded by the history of this century; and Whereat, It I eminently proper that the cltlzent and soldli rg of Philadelphia should, In common with their brethren of other cities, unite In testify ing their sorrow over the loss which they, with all the loyal people of tho United State, have sustained In the decease of so faithful a public survaut, there- lore Hrtolvrd, That the citizens and soldiers of Phila delphia, In public meeting aRxembled, bear their unanimous testimony to their high appreciation ot the Invaluable services rendered the nation by tho great man whose death we mourn. JltKnived, That we recognize In his military achieve ments a genius aa rare as It was unselUah; In his modesty the true characteristic of the Christian eentltnian, and In his unspotted record, both as a public servant and a private citizen, an example worthy of nil emulation. Jiemlved, That we tender to the fair lly of the de- ceaHed sincere sympathy over their loss, which. irreparable as It Is to the nation, comes with crush- lug force to those who were bound to him by ties of 0100a; ana mat tno omrers or this meeting be re-(int-sted to forward to them a codt of these reso- lutlots. Jirnolvftl, That the chairman be requested to ap point a committee to attend the funeral in a body as representatives of Philadelphia. Major-Generol Mindil read letters from General Sherman, General Negley, Hon. Samuel J. Randall, Hon. William D. Kelley, Hon. Charles O'Neill, Hon. Leonard Myers, Major-General John S. Hartranf t, and Gover nor Geary. Major-General Van V net was then intro duced and said he came here to join the mil lions throughout the country in mourning for Ueneral 1 nomas, lie probably felt the loss more deeply than any other one present. In 18153 they entered West Point together. graduated together, and were assigned to the od Artillery in Florida, and from that time until the day of General Thomas' death they had been thrown more or less together, and in all that time he had never heard an nngen- tiemaniy remark lau irom ms lips, lie was a kind husband and father. His career in the army was too well known to require to be dwelt upon. Maior-ueneral Patterson followed, sayina; that he first became acquainted with General lhomns in the Mexican war. He was a most unselfish man, and never forgot the meaning of the word duty. He was a Christian gentle-r.-.an, a most accomplished and skilful soldier; he feared God and obeyed His command ments. More he could not Bay. The following address was then made by Charles Gibbons, Esq.: Mr. Chairman It rarely happens that whole com munities are brought together to indulge a common sorrow over tne grave or one man, because it is not often that death can 11 nd a mark so near to the public heart as George 11. Thomas. I cannot ven ture nere, in trie presence or soldiers distinguished In their profession as any in the world, to analyze his military character, or eveti specify the military operations by which he won the laurels he so modestly wore. But looking only at the great re sults achieved by Geuerul Thomas upon fields renowned In the history of war, 1 can only express what I believe to be the universal sentiment, that no better soldier ever lived or died under the ilag of his country. He was not only a soldier, bat a patriot, In the highest and noblest sense of that much misapplied word. Mis patriotism was not snort sighted, it was not narrowed In Its scope by the boundaries of tho Btate In which he was born; It did not glow on one side or an imaginary line, only to grow cold a ad un serviceable on the other, where the same fiasc beloneed where tho same language was spoken and the same sacred memories were cherished ; but it went with the flag, and embraced all that the symbol cf our nationality covered, and was as pure and un- seltlsh In the valley or tuc cumueriuna and the far off coast of the Pacific as it ever was or could be In his native fields of Southampton. It was a national patriotism, comprehending the United States of America and nothing less. That was the America lie served, and he honored It by his services as mucn as 11 can ever honor him. Looklnir across tne roiomac to me mnu or ms nirtu. remembering his affection for the beautiful valleys and tne grand 01a mountains 01 nis native state, and retneiiiberiue now much It cost a Vlrsrlnian to be faithful and true to the national cause, we might justly inscrine upon nis icrno 1110 sentiment tuat must nave :nvea in ms iienn -noi mat 1 loved Virginia loss, bnt my country more." He was a soldier and a patriot, without that lnor dlnate and selfish ambition which so often mars the character of our public men. It Is tho testimony not only or ms personal menus ana comrades in trio army, but or ail wno nave waicneu nis nouorauie career, that the faithful performance of his duties was tne widest range or nis amuition not only uu duties as a soldier, but his duties also as a man and a citizen. This was a principle and rule or his life which was never neglected, relaxed, or compro mised. He Bought no honor from men which that. could not secure, and he accepted none which It had not earned. No one now poluta to any act of his public life that has left a stain upon Its record, nor to a neglected public duly that can rise In Judgment against nun. General Thomas added to his other virtues that humility which is not always found In men who occupy high positions In the world, but which, wherever found, Is always becoming and attractive. I know nothing of his Inner life, which was hidden from all human eyes, but I oannot contemplate a character externally moulded and preserved In such strict aeoord with the requirements of Christianity without a profound conviction that It was all the result of constant and acceptable Intercourse and communion with his Divine Master. He has fouirht good tight: he has finished his course; he has kept tne 1 aim 1 Perhaps we should not deplore the loss of a man who has perfected In himself so good and complete an example ior maiiKinu. 1 no example nve9; it is bevond the power ot death. Like a new star fixed In the heavens, It shines upon the world, an unfading ana unrauiug cynosure ior an coming time. General Joshua T. Owen, Major A. It. Cal houn, General H. H. Bingham, and llev. A. A. WillitU having delivered addresses, the chairman put the resolutions to a vote, and they were adopted, after which the meeting dispersed. GOVERNMENT SALES. s ALE OF A NAVY VESSEL.
