ceiling. Tho only bit of Color wnH tho
dull red in tho carpet, and tho wood
work was wholly draped in black. Along
tho ceiling about tiio cornico tltero was
a lino ot llags, cloHely festoon oil and
interwoven witli black. Tho chandel
iers wcro hung in sorgo. Tlio catafahpio
was Hlighlly raised from tho tloor of tlio
car.
Tho next car was lor tlio Burgeons
and nltcmiuuls. Following tins, was
tho car reserved for Mrs. Uai field. This
wns tho ono used by Vronidcnt lloberls
oi tlio i'ennsylvanta It, 1!., anil is luxti
riously appointed. Tho members of tho
cabinet occupied a special car. A spec
ial train was run to tho station and
President Arthur and General Grant
stepped from it and entered tho second
car of tho funeral train. At every sta
tion nloni; tho route crowds assembled
and stood with uncovered heads as the
train passed. Hells wcro tolled and in
many places thero wero beautiful lloral
displays. Tho train arrived in Wash-
ini'toit at '1:35 p. m when tho casket
was at onco removed to tho hearso in
waiting. Tlio funeral parly took seats
in carriages, and under military escort
tho procession at ouco proceeded to tho
C.'ipilOl.
AT TUB DKl'OT.
A vast tlirontr of neonlo wcro assem
bled about tho depot to do honor to tho
illustrious doail, every avenuo anil ap
proach being densely packed with jost-
linjj hut, in every instance, mud and or
derly citizens. A largo forco of police
wero on duty, and tlio lnuncdiato up
Dioaches to tho depot wero roped off
aud closed nuainst all save those partici
patlng in tlio ceremonies or who held
special cuds of admission to tho depot.
Tho military wero drawn up along the
east sido.ot Sixth street, with tho right
resting on Pennsylvania avenuo. Upon
tho opposite sido'of tho street nearest to
tlio depot, was a long lino ot cainagcs
preceded by a hearse, winch was drawn
up diiectly at the main gate of tho Sixth
street side. It was draped in black of
rich and heavy material, wholly unre
lieved by any other color, and was drawn
by six iron gray horr.es whose trappings
weio also draped in 6onibro black. Just
buforo tho train entered tho depot the
platform was cleared by tho police, and
tho officers of tho army and navy to the
number of 130 formed in single rank upon
tlio loll, laeitiir tlio train.
As soon as tho last of tho Presidential
party had entered their carriages, tho
signal was given by tlio buglo and tho
military escort formed in line, and tho
mourniul procession started on its way
to tho capitol. With muflled drums and
solemn funeral dirge, tlio procession
moved slowly up tho avenue. A dense
mass lined tho sidewalks all tho way.
AT THE CAPITOL.
At tho east Trout of tho capitol a vast
assemblago had congregated to viow the
funeral cortege. At tho front of tho
Bteps thero was a double filo of senators
nnd representatives, headed by their re
spective officer waiting in respectful si
lonco to escort tho remains into tlio ro
tunda. At precisely 5:10 tho head of
tlio sad procession moving around to tho
south sido of tho capital arrived at tlio
east front, the arms of the military
being reversed and tlio bands playing
tho dead march. Tho oflicers of tho
army and navy drow up in parallel lines
on eitiier sido of tho hearso and tho Ma
rino band played "Nearer my God to
Thoo." With solemn tread tho remains
of Prcsido-it Garfield wero borno into
tho rotunda and placed upon tho cata
falque. T11K OASKl'.T OPENUIi.
At 5:00 p. m. tho lid of tho casket was
opened and tho faco of tholato president
was exposed to viow. Noiselessly Pres
ident Arthur and Secretary Maine, np
proaehed and gazed upon tho faco of
tho dead nnd then Blowly and sadly pass
cd out of tho hall. A lino was formed
by Sergcant-at Arms Bright and ono by
ono ot those present advanced and
danced at tho emaciated and discolored
faco of tho dead president. Tho public
at lareo was then admitted, and thou
sands of persons testified by their re
verential conduct nnd mournful counte
nances tho soitow which thev exper
ienced in looking upon the features of
their murdered president.
Tho casket is black, with silver handles
black rods running along the side, and
upon tho top is a silver pinto with tho
inscription :
; Jami:s Aiiiiam Gaufiui.d.
: Born November 19, 1831.
; Died President of tlio United States
: September 19, 1881,
Tho casket is lined with white satin,
across tho top, and crossing cacli other,
aro two long leaves of palm. Only tho
faco and shoulders nro seen, and ono
needed to know all that remained of
James A. Garfield lay thoro to recall tho
faco so familiar during life. Tho fnco to
those who know General Garfield only
from his portraits could not hnvo lioen
recognized.
Tho body laid in stato in tho rotunda
of tho Capitol all day Thursday of last
week, and at cloven o'clock on Friday
morning tho doors wcro closed. It is
estimated that 80,000 people viewed tlio
remains. A steady stream of humanity
uouiod through tho yast rotunda and
thoro was no cessation for hours.
In tho afternoon, religious sorvices
wore hold and wero nttonded by nil tho
representatives of foreign powers in
Washington. Thoro wero scats for 1300
but more than 25,000 sought admission.

Veteran Corps to their Old Commander."
Tlio next lloral emblem wns tho novel
and beautiful "Gatew Ajar." Then ennio
another massive pillow of roses and ivy

Heiirosentatives, tho Governors of States
and Territories, and the iudlciary of iho
District, the Judges of tho United Slates
Comt, and tho ollicers ol tlio several de
partments rodo in carriages following.
Tho long lino ended with organized socie
ties and citizens who'choso to follow the
dead President.
Tho funeral train left tho station nt
5:15 nnd was followed by a sreond train
carrying Senators nnd Representatives.
Only necessary slops were made on tlio
route nnd Cleveland was reached nt 1:17
Saturday nftornoon. Five minutes af
ter tho train reached tho depot tho cof
fin was lifted from tho cars nnd enrried
to tlio hearso followed by tho guard of
honor with General Sherman nnd Roar
Admiral Bodgcrs walking nt tho head.
Tho coffin was not again opened. Tho
pavilion in which tlio coffin was placed
was a very handsomo structure nnd tho
interior wns beauiituuy decorated with
rare plants, choico flowers and exquisite
lloral designs. At 10:30 on Monday
morning tho final ceremonies began nt
tho pavilion. The services wero opened
bv tho singing of the "funeral hymn" by
tlio Cleveland vocal society. Portions
of scripture from tlio burial servico of
tho lipiscopnl church wcro then read by
Bishop Bedell, of tho Episcopal diocese
of Ohio. Bev. Boss C. Houghton offered
a miivcr and was followed by tho Vocal
Society who sang a hymn. Bcv. T3auc
Erret of Cincinnati delivered an eloquent

viowed tho lifo of James A. Gai field,
After tho singing of another hymn Dr.
Charles Pomeioy delivered tho funeral
prayer aud benediction. A very largo
procession accompanied tlio body to tlio
cemetery. At tho grave in Lake View

Tho Latin odo from Horace was then
sung by tho united ucrman singing so
cietics. Another hymn was sung bv

The exercises closed with benediction by
President Hinsdale of Hiram College.
Tho knoll where the body of tho pros
ident was buried is tlio most choice site
in tho cemetery, nnd it is said tho trus
tees had been offered $10,000 for it,
Tho public vault in which tho remains
will lio until their final interment is n
chnpel-liko structure of Berea sandstono,
gray and yellow in color and Gothic in
design. It lias a sonaro tower about
sixty feet in height and a narrow door
way at tho base, guarded bv iron bars,
and on tho insido a door of solid iron.
Tho interior is twenty soven feet square
and almost devoid of decoration, savo a
few withered Uowcrs. It has stono
shelves on thrco of its walls for tho rest
ing place of tho dead. Tho vault fronts
on tho main nvcnuo of tlio cemetery, and
immediately in front of it thoro is an ar
tificial lako surrounded by bright colored
flowers. It is the abode of several whito
Bwans, who move slowly to nnd fro over
its bright waters. This is tlio only spot
m tho cemetery whero tho trustees seem
to havo expended private means liber
ally. Tho lots of many wealthy families
lio around about, and as tlio burying
ground is comparatively now all tho
monuments aro so, and many of thorn
aro claborato and costly in design. Tho
land rises gradually to tho crest of tho
cemetorv wlicro General Garfield is to
ho buried.
Monday wns observed as a day of
prayer throughout tho United States nnd
business was goncrally suspended. At
the various military posts and in most of
tho larger towns and cities guns wero
hred every halt hour and n national sa
Into at sunrise nnd sunset.
In London thero was never beforo seen
such genoral wearing of mourning for n
foreignor. Many of tlio Biiopa wero
closed and but littlo business was trans
acted. Tho English court is in mourn
ing, a most unusual tributoof respect for
an American. Tho nows from all quar
ters of the elobo aro of tlio samo import,
Impressive funeral services wcro held in
nearly every church, bolls wero tolled
aud buildings draped.
TUK ASSASSIN.
Now
low let tho heavy hand of justico bo
upon tho wretched Guitcau. With
laid
as littlo demy as ueconoy requires 101
him bo tried, condeinnod and executed,
Everything should bo done in a lawful
manner mm wiin a strict, onsorvnuoo oi
all tho forms prescribed by tho courts,
His guilt Bhould bo established by Bworn
witnesses, tlio verdict pronounced by n
jury, and tho sentenco of tlio law carried
out bv properly constituted olllcors. But
thero should bo no unnecessary delay
Tho peoplo of this country respect tlio
law nnd cheerfully submit to its require
ments, but tlioy nro in no liumor to
brook tho postponement of tho assassin's
doom. Tlioy will not quietly submit to
ridiculous pleas of insanity, nor tolerate
tho interforonco of crnnky surgcona with
high-flown theories nbout tho improper
treatment of tho President. Lot Guitonu
havo Justice and nothing inoro. This
country is not big enough to hold its de
cent, honorublo peoplo and tho oownrdly
scoundrel who now occupies a eon iiuiio
jail nt Washington. Tho denth of ten
thousand such fellows would not com
pensate for tho loss of tho President it
is true, nnd liisapecdy end is only desir
ed becauso ho in a stench in tho nostrils
of tho people. In thia nation, nssnsnins
never havo nnd never will bo Moated.
Thoro is no occasion for deeds of von
geanoo by a mob. Let the law bo obsorv
id in nil ifspccus but let its operation bp
untrammelled by tricky devices or silly
testimony offered by erajita3-wliothcr ,

I'rcMlttent Arthur's Inaugural.
President Arthur took the oath of oflico
at the p,ipit..l on Thuudnv of Inst week
in the prosencoof lliocablnel.tho justices
of the supremo court, n lew senators
mid congressmen, uenernls eiicrninti,
Grant and others, forty in nil. Chief
Justice Wnlto, in full robes of office, ad
ministered tlio oath. Tim President then
read from manuscript notes tlio following
address.
"For tho fourth Unto in tlio history of
tho republic its chief magistrate lias been
removed by death, All hearts aro filled
with grief nnd horror nt tho hideous
crinio which has darkened our land, nnd
tho memory of tho murdered president,
his Protracted sufferings, his unyielding
fortitude, thu oxamplo and achievement
of his life nnd tlio pathos of his dcatli
will forever illumine thu nagesof our his
tory. For tho fourth time tho officer
elected by tho people nnd ordained by
the constitution to fill a vacancy so crea
ted is called to nssiimu tho executive
chair. Tho wisdom of our fathers for
seeiiig tlio most dire possibilities mado
sure Unit tho government should nover
bo imperilled becauso of tho uncertainty
of human lifo. Men may die, but tho
fabrics of our free institutions remain
unshaken. No higher or more assuring
proof could exist of tlio strength and
permanence ot popular government man
tho fact that, though tho chosen ono of
the peoplo be stiuck down, his constitu
tional successor is peacefully installed
without shock or strain, except tho sor
row which mourns tlio bereavement. All
tho noblo aspirations of my lamented
iredccessor which loimu expression in
lis life, tho measures devised and Bug
gested during his brief administration to
correct abuses nnd enforce economy, to
ldvanco prosperity nnd promote the gen
eral welfare, to ensure domestic security
and maintain friendly and honorable ic
lalions with tho nations of tlio earth, will
bo garnered in tho heails of tho people,
and it will bo my earnest endeavor to
proht and to sen that the uatiou shall
proht by Ins oxamplo ami cxpei lcnce.
Prosperity blesses our country. Our fiscal
policy as fixed by law, is well grounded
and generally approved. No threatening
issuo mars our foreign interests and the
wisdom, integrity and thrift ot our peo
plo may bo trusted to continue .undis
turbed tho present assured career of
peace, tranquility and welfare. Tho
gloom and anxiety which havo enshroud
ed tho country must mako reposo espec
ially welcome now. No demand for
speedy legislation lias been heard ; no
adequate occasion is apparent for an un
usual session of congress. Tho consti
tution defines tho functions and powers
of tho oxccntivo as clearly as those o
either of tlio other two departments of
tho government, and ho must answer tor
tho just exercise of tlio discretion it per
inns aim me perioimaiieo ui inu uuiien
it imposes, summoned to these Ingn
duties and responsibilities and profound
ly conscious of their magnitude and
gravity, I ussumo the trust imposed by
tho constitution, relying for aid on Di

and intelligence of tho American lieo

STATE TUEASUKEU.
Hon. Ornngo Noble, of Erie, was nom
inated for Stato Treasurer by tho Demo
cratio State Convention at Williamsport
on Wednesday. A full report of the
Convention will appear in these columns
next week.
By the dcatli of Senator Burnsido tlio
Democrats will havo a majority of three
at tho opening ot tho tjciiato. this will
cnablo them to choose a president jn-o
tem. who will then swear into office the
two Senators from New York,and Burn-
side's successor. On a full voto there
would bo a tic between Democrats and
Republicans. To elect a Democratic
president vro tem. it is necessary that
every Democrat bo present, and that
thero bo no overstrained notions of "cour
tesy." Tlio Democrats, by tho way, ap
pear to havo a monopoly of that kind of
politeness, Republicans not regarding
such unimportant matters when anything
is to bo gamed by overlooking it.
Mayor Graco of Now York, recently
dismissed tho Police Commissioners from
oflico for neglect of duty in not having
tho streets cleaned. .Governor Cornell
has overruled tho mayor on tho flimsiest
of pretexts and allowed tho Commision-
V . . ... n ... .!... f .1...:..
ers to retain tneir ouiccs in siniu oi uiuir
misdemeanors. Tho World indignantly
says: "The Democratic voters of this
city aro not likely to forget this actioii of
a Republican Governor, nor aro they
likely to forget that it is to Tammany
Hall and its Boss that they owo tlio
election of tho Republican Governor who
has thus identified himself nnd his party
with the causo of municipal misgovern
ment."
It appears to be positive that tlio cab
met will bo materially changed, if not
ontircly re-constructcd. Attorney Gen
era! MacVeagh has tendered his resig
nation in writing and assured tho 1'rcs
ident it must bo accepted. It is lumored
that Secretary Blaino will also retiro
within ten days. Other changes aro
mentioned but not with authority. Tho
appointments mado by President Arthur
to nil the vacancies thus caused will be
narrowly scrutinized aud will go far to
reassure or disappoint tlio peoplo. Tho
President's position is not enviable by
any means.
President Arthur has called a special
bcssioii of tho benato for Uctober 10th
Tlio Democrats will undoubtedly elect a
President pro tem and probably n boo
retnry. Tho two now senators lroin
Now York and tho ono from Rhode Is
lnnd cannot bo sworn in until a presid
ing officer is chosen who will administer
tho oath of office. It is absurd to claim
that a Republican should bo elected and
thero nro fow even of tlio Republicans
who advocate such a proceeding,
Tlio Montour county fnir which was to
havo been held last week, was postponed
to October 10th, 20th, 21st and 22nd.
Tho oondltion of tho weather was tlio
principal reason for tho postponement.
Tho managers were of opinion tlint if
rain fell tho farmers would bo obliged to
Btay at homo to look after their plowing
and seeding, and if tlio drought contin
ued tlio dusty condition ot tho roads
would bo a drawback to tho pleasure of
the occasion.
It is rumored that ox-Surgeon General
Hammond has hi preparation a book of
