It is learned from good railway , authority
that the New York Central and Hudson River
Railroad Companies are obliged by the Erie
competition to transport nearly all
all western cattle and other live stock which
supply this city and other eastern markets for
nearly nominal rates ($1 per car load). The
Erie is monopolizes a great " share
of Western•passengefttaffiC; the" regular day
and night express trains arriving and depart
ing from the Tbirtieth - street depot of the
Central line during the pass week were un
usually. heavy. The conductors of the Erie
line, however, state that: the Central
are carrying no more passengers thin — at-'
any other season. It is believed
in railroad circles that further reductions in
prides will speedily follow, although none are
yet announced. This week there was no
competition for 'Western freights, with the
exception_of_ live stock,_and_ the-foriner- high-
rates for dry goods and genetal merchandise

tFtom the London Times.}
The wish of the people Of England has pre-,
vailed, and Charles Dickens rests in the
...Abbey Church of St. Peter, at Westminster.
Our readers will learn with surprise and satis
faction.that the funeral of the great novelist
was celebrated at an early- hour yesterday
morning, in Poet's Corner. , with as much
privacy as could have been secured for it in
any little village church in Kent, or even
in Wales or Cornwall. A grave had
been dug ..during. tue night, and we be
- lieve . We are right in.'asserting'that; besides'
the dean and canons, hardly a member of the
cathedral body on Monday evening was aware ,
of the . intended arrangement. 'lt appears that
some days ago the dean sent a communication ,
to the family of Mr. Dickens to the effect that,
brit was desired by themselves or by the pub
lic that he should be buried in the Abbey, he
would do all in his power to, facilitate, the ar
rangements; and, also, that on Monday, sug
gesting that the Abbey was the fitting resting
place for such a Man; lie 'repeated the offer
in terms more distinct. Most fortunately,
it was found, upon opening Mr. Dickens's,
will, that, although his instructions were
explicit in forbidding all pomp and show, and
all that " mockery of woe" which undertakers
are at such pains to provide, he had named '
place of burial; and, therefore, his executors
f,it, that it was open to them to concur with
the national wish, if they could Only insure
secrecy as place and time. This was
~a rranged satisfactorily on Monday, and at an
early hour yesterday morning the body was
conveyed, almost before any one was stirring,
in a hearse from Gad's Hill -.to one
of the railway stations of, the London,
Chatham and Dover line, whence it
was forwarded to London . by a
special train, •which reached the Charing
cross Station punctually at O_O'clock. In a few.
minutes more the hearse,,which was plainness
itself,.was'on its way. down Whitehall:: to the
- A.bbey,,follovved..by the mourning. coaches,.
and we believe that not a single person of the
many ScoreS Who'iniist have met the gloomyr
cavaluide as it Slowly paced along was aware
that that hearse was convoying to its last rest-,
ing-place 'all that was mortal of Charles
Diekens. '
A fffy "minutes before 3.30 the hearse and
-mourning coaches-4EO latter three in number
—entered Dean's-yard, and the body was car-'
ried through the cloisters to the door of the
nave, where,it was zriet. by Ilteodeany the two

"IN TEM POET'S CORNER..."
The choir were not present, and indeed.for the
most part, were unaware that a grave had
been opened in the Abbey,and that the sounds
of the burial service Were about to be beard
there once. more, more thanhalf a fear having
passed by since the last funeral—that of Mr.
Peabody. The service-was most impressively
read by the dean, all but the Lessons, which
were read by the senior canon. There was no
antheM, no chanted - psalms; no hyttin, not
even an intoned response or " Amen ;" but
the organ was played at intervals during
the mournful ceremon The earth was
cast into the grave' by y..
the Clerk of
the Works • the ' service ended,
'the mourners—fourteen in number, with per
haps as many more strangers who accidentally
chanced to be present—gathered round the
grave to take a last look at the coffin which
held. the great novelist's remains, and to place
wreaths Of immortelles and other flowers upon
the coffin-lid, and the service was at an end.
The coffin was of plain but solid oak, and it
bore the plain and simple inscription: -
____----- CHARLES-DICE:ENS,
Born February 7, 1812.
• Died June 9, 1870.
His grave, which is only between five and
six feet deep, is situated about a •yard, or_ a
vand and a half, from the southern wall. of
Poet's Corner; the spot was selected by the
Dean from,aniong the few vacant .spaces. in
that transept, and our readers will_ hear._ with
interest - that all of Charles Dickens that is
mortal lies at the feet of 'Handel and at the
head of Sheridan, with Richard Cumberland
restingon his right hand and Macaulay on his
left,-H is-grave is -near-thefoot -Acklisim's
statue ; and Thackeray's bust looks calmly
down upon the grave of his old friend. Dr.
Johnson and Garrick lie within a few yards of
him ; and the busts of Shakespeare; Milton and
a host of other worthies, each of them theglory
of English literature in their day, are but a
little further off.. •
It will be felt`no doubt by- till--thoughtful
persons,that although the executors of Charles
Dickens may have _disappointed: the public by
keeping the time and place of hb3 funeral- to
the very last so strict a secret, they ,have done
the one thing which would have been alike ac
ceptable to the departed, • and which has satis
fied the wishes of the country at large.
--,Mr..Dickens!s two - -daughters Thi - sister-in
law (Miss Hogarth), Charles. Dickens, Mr.
Wilkie Collins and Mr. John Forster were
among those who followed his remains to the
tomb.
The grave, by direction of the dean; was left
open as long as the Abbey was open yester
day; and as the news spread about London,
many visitors went to Poet's Corner during
the afternoon to take a last sad look at the
coffin of .Charles Dickens; but it was under
stood-that the grave would be closed during
the course of last evening. We believe that it
is the intention of the dean to preach a funeral
sermon upon _the career and character of the
great writer wbese ashes have been-laid in the
Abbey, on Sunday next.
In ;:the - 'first • mourning coach were 'Mr.
Charles Dickens, Jr., Mr. Harry Dickens, -
Miss Dickens, and Mrs. Charles Collins.
In the second coach, Miss Hogarth, Mrs.-
.Austin (Mr. Dickens's sister), Mrs. Charles
Dickens, jr., and Mr. John Foster.
In the third coach, Mr. Frank Beard, Mr.
Charles Collins, Mr. Ouvry, Mr. Wilkie
Collins, and Mr. Edmund Dickens.
At :1 o'clock the bell of the Rochester
Cathedral - Vas tolled . for the deceased- A
'vault bad been prepared'in St. Mary's Chapel,
RoChester Cathedral—a beautiful chapel near
the entrance to the choir, restored a few years
- since—for the interment of the deceased, and •
varilt - was.rapidly constructed. 'Yesterday a
nurriber of Men were engaged in filling up the
vault with earth and restoring the -pavement, :
while the bell was tolling for the funeral.
"All the Year Round."
The following statement as to the future
management of All the Year Round has been is
sued by Mr. Charles Dickens, Jr.:
It was my father's wish, expressed in
writing only a week before his death, that I,
his eldest son,and latterly, his assistant editor,
should succeed him in the management
of the journal so long associated
with his name. In accordance with
this clearly-expressed desire, and strong
in the hope inspired by so encourag, ing a mark
of bis confidence, I address myself to the ful
fillment of the task which he appointed me
to discharge. It is intended that the manage
ment of All the Year Round, in the future,
shall be based on precisely, the same princi
ples as those on which it has, up to this time,
been conducted. The same authors who have
contributed to its 'columns in time past,
will contribute to them still. The same
spirit which has in the past' pervaded its
pages will, so far as conscientious endeavor
- may reffder it possible, pervade them still.
The same earnest desire to advocate what is
right and true and to oppose what is false and
unworthy, which was the guiding principle
of my father's career, and which has always
characterized his management of All Cie
Year. Round, will, I most earnestly hope,--con
tinue to be apparent in every word. So much,
then, being the same, it may not bepresump
tuous in me to hope that, the same readers
with whom this journal, and that- which
preceded it found favor for so many
sears, may still care to see- the familiar title
page on their table as of old. With
Ibis brief explanation of the course I propose
to adopt, and omitting all reference whatever
to my own personal feelings in connection
with the great sorrow which has rendered
this statement necessary, I leave the future
journal to speak for itself. "It is better that
every kind of work, honestly undertaken and
discharged, should speak for itself than be
Epoken for." These were the words with
which my father inaugurated the New Series
'of All the. Year Round. I cannot surely do
better than repeat them, in this place.

Reminiscences of the Great Author—
Ails Love of 'France. •
M. Paul Feval has published in the Gaulois
Some interesting, recollections of Mr. Charles
Dickens, with whom he was on terms of close
personal friendship. Mr. Dickens bad been
present at the funeral of Frederick Senile, in
1847, and afterward said to M. Feval : " I begin
to love France since I saw this. Englishmen are
found to'assemble around a hearse, because
having 'never any fate they are glad to see any
public ceremony whatsoever. Yet here it is
not a mass, but a people who come together
on such occasions. From the Rue Vendiime
to Pere la Chaise, I saw but two unbroken
lines of human beingS in deep mourning."
Feval also tells the following story, which he
claims to have beard from M. Fechter's own
lipe. Addressing M. Fechter, M. Feval says:
."You had carried on the direction of the
Lyceum Theatre with - a brilliant result; every
evening your talent filled that house, which
was only too small; but every theatre has
the, sad affliction which we call the man-
agement.-- 1 don't • know how it hap
pened, 'but a, full--house left you with an
empty cash-box. One evening you bad a
discussion with your manager, and he incon
testably proved to you that you were some
£3,000 in his debt. You bad been under the
impression that there was a balance of at least
twice that amount on your. side, but artists
are in this like great. ..lords—their men of bn.si
"neas often trouble them with these unpleasant
Stir Prises.• You went out rather angry and not
a little embarrassed, for it was not at all to
your taste to remain in this man's debt.
Bow are you, if Miter, my dear fellow ?'
It was the cheery' voice_of Dickens,
.as he
turned the corner of Covent Garden. You
told hiM with some amount of feeling how
you were situated. Dickens expressed no
compassion, but shook hands "and 'wished you,
good-night.

you: up. The matter was rret so pressing aso
all that, my dear Sir,' saldhec.
What do you mean?' • .
Why, about that .£VoC — CliarW Dckens
came and handed me t e cash cra , your i
behalf'
at 12 o'clock last night.'"
Dickens had for Balza° a kind of frightenedk
admiration. He reproached him fbrhis eiter
sive egotism, but he-greatly - preferred him tor
George Sand, whose style he was,- as a for
eigner, almost unable to appreciate: Dickens
knew,however, very much ofthe French belles—
lettres. He knew by heart Gorlairli Aristide'
Froissard ; the posthumous novels of Mery
seemed to give him moments of the greatest
joy. M.Feval has seen:kith:cat once faughlng
and crying over a page of Alphonse Daudet.
It was on the suggestion of Dickens and
Thackeray that M. Feval attempted to intro
duce into France the system of pub/lei - Wadi
ings which it was reserved to M.Sarceylinally•
to establish in that country.

[For the Philadelphia Evening Bu
the Late Dir. Eckkard.
- In the EVENING BuLLETrat of the 13th ap
peared an obituary of the late Dr. Eckhard, of
Torresdale. 'The writer of the article having
made a serious and false charge ,against the
Superioress of the Catholic Academy at Tor
lesdale. the friends and 'patrons of this- Insti
tutionare anxious-that a refutation of this-un
founded calumny be made. `.Co-do this, it is
merely necessary to make a simple statement
of the facts. ,„ _
Dr. Eckhard was notified that he would be
no longer employed at the Academy of 'Eden
Hall, after his pupils _ had— come—iw- a
body to the - Superioress, - -urging
his removal, and expressing their determina,-
tion. in case he was retained, to give up their_
music"lessons. His violence of temper, Ads
rough and unbecoming language, had." lone
been the cause'of many trying scenes with his
pupils; and it was owing to the - persuasive
efforts of the ladies ••of the :Seminary - (who
fully appreciated the. Doctor's musical pro
ficiency), that he had been retained as 'Ong as
he was. So much for the asSertibn that " , he
was requested to adopt thaltoman..faith as Ft. •
conditionof his retaining his; position,'.' and
the "spirited profession of Protestanbisin"
which he is said to have made in answer! No
observation. was on any occasion, or at-Any
time. made to the doctor with regard to his
religion.
The present Superioress, as well as her pre
decessor (equally "a strict Roman Catholic"),
can unhesitatingly appeal to their Protestant
patrons, visitors, or professional employ6s,
witnesses to the truth of their never intruding
sectarian topics or opinions in their profes
sional or social intercourse. But what better
refutation - of the charge • that Dr. E--•was
dismissed on account of his Protestant prin
ciples is needed; than the simple fact that the
present Professor Of Music •is a Protestant,
and so likewise is the Physician and. the
Dentist of the Institution?
All who know the present Lady Superioress,
Catholics as well as Protestants, will attest to
her fitness for the position, from her dignity,
mildness and Christian virtues; yet one of the
friends of the late Dr. Eckhard, who Signs
himself "J. Miller," has volunteered to address
her in the following gentlemanly style: "Your
conduct in the matter of causing Dr:Eckhard's
I ig -- placement from a sallifiedposition, for ins
refusing to sell his conscience on your demand,
stamps your conduct as that of a vile and bigoted'
wretch, and a disgrace to an Educational In
