they are men extensively- engaged in other Gussitten

teading their charter over every species 'of miter

they are thus profitably engaged it is hard to be

Rail Rola builiing hanks never die a natural death;
eontnerions generally ending their existence.

THE Furraikt. ESEIICIIES.—The ceremonies of
yesterday werepartietpate• in, by the-great mass of
our citizens—rand, from Aiegheny, the -surrMinding
Boroughs and' the countiii, r there was a grand turn
out of young and old ; rand "ladies and children seem-.
eds , to he partakers in the excitements. A more
magnificent—and at the smile time solemn—pageant
we never before witnessdd in our city. We are
pleased to say that not a ftingle act of impropriety
was perpetrated any mi l e ; all seemed impressed
deeply with the solemnities ofthe honors they were
bestowing upon the remains of the departed. No
idle jests were indulged iz, as is too common on
such occasions. The cit i funs who joined in the
procession and those who turned out as mere look
erg on, were decently clad, as if designed in respect
to the memories of those whose lifeless bodies were
being borne to the tomb. The weather was fair,
though rather cold for corefort. The arrangements
previously made by the committees were complete,
and we never witnessed se little difficulty in organ
izing for a march. The bags upon the steamers,
and others in the city were at half mast. Many
stores were closed, and business seemed for the
time entirely suspended.l t Vorkmen quit their shops;
and the streets were filled with people from the
country around and the neighboring counties, who
had been attracted here. by the announcements of
the preparations.
At about 11 o'clock, tl+ different societies, com
panies, marshals, city officers, &c., began to gather
into Liberty street, and each took the place desig.
nated by the published order. As soon as possible
the Procession - moved up r l to Sixth street, opposite
the Episcopal Church, the military taking the, lead.
They halted here, and the Pall Bearers entered the
church, and after the Religious ceremonies were
over, the coraes were bOne out and placed in the
hearse.

strength, followed. The Mayor, the Presidents of
the Select and Common Councils, with the members
orCouncils, here appealed. The Odd Fellows, and
an Association afNatives; the Firemen of the two
cities, with their Banners ; Citizens in carriages and
on horseback brought up the rear.
In most exquisite order did the Procession march
through the principal st4ets, and then proceeded to
the C. metery. An imMense concourse of People
was there assembled, tci witness the last tokens of
affection and esteem tilt can be bestowed upon the
dead. The oratiotf, which follows, was delivered
in a peculiarly impressive Style, and fur beauty is
only equalled by for Mer efforts of the same ac
complished speaker.
THESE BONES LIVE Jive in the patriotic affection
of the American people.
Clothed in the image of God, and animated with
the spirits of these departed heroes, they .were the
public property of the Nation. To us, and to our
successors is confided the sacred trust of preserving
them inviolate until tilt' last trump shall call the
dead to judgment.
This is a heroic solemnity, and this multitude of
living witnesses have come kom the activity of a
tumultuous City, to look in sadness upon the rein
torment of those that te onci ,"candidates high in
emulation for the prize of ilorv." This pall and
this mourning, are alike creditable to the living, and
the dead, to our countri, and to our social relations.
They awaken recollection of the virtues of the de
ceased, and the stirringlimenvs in which they partic
ipated.
They remind us, also!of the inevitable hour, Com
mon to uifall, and that ;
"The path of glory leads but to the grave."
Far from the endearments of home and consan
guinity, two of them surrendered to the last enemy
of Mortality, what they refused to the Graveat of
their country's enemie4; and the other died amid the
conflict of arms, and with his lace to the bristling
steel of the enraged foe. Here or. this mount, ded
icated with appropriatel solemnities to the purposes
of sepulture they will irepose, and the tall column,
carved with the emblems of their great deeds, will
rise, to animate their untrymen in all future strug
gles for the preservatioiof constitutional liberty.
Ilere the dews shall descend, and fresh (lowers be
sprinkled on their gralves, as long as the veins of
American women swel lwith the blood of the Rev
olution. Here the young and gallant soldier will
come up from the pomp, parade and toil of the camp,
t i do homage to warridrs, clad in clay. And here
the intrepid Sailor, nuii.ed in the storm, with the
tide of generous sorrotv working upward to his eye,
will wipe away a tear, li-orn his maid) cheek, as he
gazes upon the spot there BARNEY and Paanmi.
lie.
Joshua Barney was a native of the gallant State
of Maryland, but his Mouldering bones are entitled
to rest, with honorablti distinction, upon the soil of
Pennsylvania.
Front our Legislature he received tokens of ap
probation for nieritoronis conduct in protecting the
commerce of the Dela Ware, and itts family now pos
sess the sword aw arded to him by (his State, for ilia
and other distinguished services rendered during
the Revolutionary %Var. In foreign service, amid
perils of the sea, before that great event, his patri
otic valor was at once enlisted in the cause of his
country, and two daysl after the declaration of Am
erican Independence,l he sailed from Philadelphia
with a commission as Lieutenant from the continen
tal congress. I
Although in subordinate position upon t sachem,
7
and the Andrea Dorea, a vessel capture, from the
enemy, his naval skill and indomital e bravery
brought him prominently before the co ntry. Prize
upon prize was taken, arid the hough y cross of St.
George, was lowered' in more than 110 instance by
his own hands.
Ordered to the command of therSaratoga, of only
sixteen guns, ho took an English firigate of thirty.
two guns, boarded her under the fire of a broadside,
and run up the American flag. But he could not al
ways be successful, and in bringing the ship home,
as a trophy of his victory, he himself was captured
and carried to England there to suffer the horrors of
an enemy's cruelty.
By a well arranged plan, he escaped to the United
States, and was nut long inactive in avenging the
wrongs lie }received abroad. In the action of the
Hyder Ally, and for which he was complimented by
•Pennsylvania, lie reserved his fire until within pistol
shot, then raked his adversary fore and all, and in
twenty minutes her colors were struck. This was
the most gallantaction of his naval life, and brought
down upon him the thanks of congress and the
country. His fame travelled throughout the land,
and his praise was incorporated in the revolutionary
ballads of the day. The t.roaring Hyder Ally> ,
was as familiar to all, as the nursing tales to lisping
infancy, on the scenes at Bunker Hill to the valiant
soldier who had pirticipated in bloody combat. The
earns of the captured vessel the General . Monk,
was changed to that of the General Wasuinovon,
and it is a remarkable historical fact, that this ship
under the command of Captain Barney, carried out
to Europe the instructions of his government to Dr.
Franklin relative to the negotiations for peace, and
was the first to bringiback to this country the thrill
ing news, that it was accomplished upon a basis
honorable and satisfaCtory to the Ainerican people.
The rich freight could not have been borne on a
vessel with a name mere appropriate than that of the
FAvirr.n or ars Corortray, whose valor had won the
battles, and whose skill had laid the foundations of
the republic. It is mil opulent legacy too, to the de
scendants of the,Coromodore, that his name sliosld
be so illustriously asaociated with one 'of the grand
est epochs of American ' --history, and it is a still
prouder honor that under the new constitution he
should have been selected with Truxtum and Dale,
by President Washingt on , to the - command -of one
of the star veksels
authorized by Congress, and these
composing the whole Navy of theVnited States.'

cords of his own gallant achievements, he landed,

What should I say of PARKER T ' The features of
his short but brillitmteareer,crowd upon me so rapid
ly that I am overwhelmed with act and incident.
Like the outline of his manly face, they are vivid as
the morning of the days on which the i ews of his
triumphs reached us, and they call to memory the
joys of his little family now in our midst, that ho was
safe, safe from his great enterprises by sea and by
land. Here is hia body from the sands of Salamandia.
" lI at rest now, all dust'."
and none of his comrades near him to Join with us
in the solemn rites to which we have appropriated
this day. Here is his wife, how bitter to her the
recollection of his living presence, when she re
members what a devoted and cherished husband he
was to her. And here are his children, Orphans, all
in infancy, scarcely able to articulate, mirthful arid
innocent, how can they realize the absence of one
who joined them in the gambols of childhood, and
who longed fur them, when far, far off at sea.
With what youthful melody Or y would have cele
brated his return, and with what sadness they wi,uld
hate looked upon his bier, if conscious of the loss
they have sustained.
In this, the spring time of their lives, may God
protect them, and as he gives to these trees their fo
liage, may lie continua ly adorn their young "•hearts
and minds with his love and fear."
JA.MF.S LAWRENCE PARKER, was a man of extra
ordinary parts, a native of Philadelphia, of humble
parentage; like the young Corscan, he was the ar
detect of his own fortune. Some or the immuni
ties incident to birth and education were his privi
leges; parental affectien would have granted him
everything, but for want and deprivation, and his
own generous nature at an early age, sought rather
to carve out for himself les destiny, than to hang as
an incubus upon those, .lio had been instrumental
in britigwig him into existence.
When only fifteen, lie entered alien apprentice on
board the Irteriersnetscr. The name of the vessel
alone was eneegli to stimulate hi+ voutliffil ardor,
and prelude him for the gallant deeds in o hich he
yvzs nn active participant.
Prompt in the discharge of every duty, and with
a precocity that at mu e sit geed h IN from his fellows,
he was removed to the midshipman's mess. Any
one who has ever been inithat Microcosm, a man of
war, will readily appreciate this promotion, arid Par
ker was the first to acknowledge and profit by it.
From this ship, he was transferred to the Java,
and made the crinze of the MNliterranean, the very
geography of which was calculated to instil into his
youthful mind, a love of glory, and veneration for
heroes, that had stamped their names epos, classic
pages. The four years occupli d in this voyage, was
not spent rn i lioness. lie acquired the affection and
confidence of his superiors, a knowledge of nave:a
to n and beige language, anti upon his return :sail
iecomnfend for appointment as Midshipman.lispark as
are theailleys,and oitficull the approach to the head of
a Department at Washington, her - energy su innunted
them. He war encountered by die accustomed infer
m ation e alwaysblandly afforded, that there were one
hundred and twenty six Pen IlF)1,1[11.1 applications in
advance ofhtm. This Was enough to dampen the en
ergies of one less resolute, but nothing daunted, he
applied in person, to the President. The keen sa
gacity and penetration of human character, which
has always characterized that illtestrioas gentleman,
instantly saw in him, qualities that should not be
lost to the country, and at once lie ordered his com
mission lo be prepared.
With n reward of merit so properly bestowed, he
joined the Potomac anti made a voyage areued the
world. During this eventful period, be first exhibit
ed those military genii. les that have distinguished
him since the comment einem of the Mexican war.
In Sumatra, he was prominent in the attack and
discomfiture of the Malays at Juallah hiattoo—n just
chastisement inflicted upon those freebooters for
murder sod piracy upon American commerce. For
his skill and intrepidity he again received the corn
mend:airing of the Commanding officers, and felt a
new impulse urging loin to greater exertion. Bath
er than return to his native land with the ship, be
preferred remaining abroad, until he should acquire
that knowledge winch would entitle him to immedi
ate promotion upon his arrival at home. lie was
transferred to the frigate Brandywine; remained with
her durin g a perilous cruise; by close application
completed his studies in Nav•gation and the modern
languages, and upon examination was raised to a
higher grade in this arm of our national defence.
After a voyage to the East Indies, with the rank
of Lieutenant, upon his own urgent solicitation, he
was ordered to the Gulf of Mexico, to participate in
the dangers and glories of the present war—amid
the Northers, the stormy billows, and the stern re
alities of this sea life , he panted for an opportunity
to distinguish himself:
His comrades of the Navy were equally impatient,
l'or all the honors were being won by the army on
land. Their position was comparatively passive,
maintaining a blockade, they could hear the booming
cannon on shore, but were not permitted to be
there. It was in tlii,s calm, this solicitude for die.
unction in hie profession, and determination to
rival those who had preceded him, that he resolved
to excel Decatur at Tripoli, and cut out the Creole
from under the walls of the Castle of San Juan d , -
Ulloa.—A perilous undertaking it was, and per
formed under a negative disobedience of orders, but
it resulted as all such enterprises du, when conceiv.=
ed and executed by master spirits of the Navy.—
Within ra,nge of a hundred pieces of artillery, upon
a tempestuous surge, and but for the darkness of the
night, in 'ull view of the Spanish, French and Eng
lish fleets, he, and those who followed him, did what
excited admiration from those, who, but for its
chivalrous daring, would have been reluctant to ad
mit, that it had been accomplished at all.
liut, the noblest of his mete upon the Gulf, was at
the loss of the Somers. —his presence of mind never
forsook him, and lie periled his life, over and over
again, to preserve those less capable of physical
exertion than himself. History has recorded all
this ; and it requires no effort or mine, to stereotype
it upon the pub is memoty.
Parker was not satisfied with his achievements on
the water. At Tuspan and Taharco, lie fought with
the foremost of the enemy, and it was in one of
these engagements he received a wound, that termi
nated a career, full of fame to him, and honor. to
the service in which he was engaged. His Commo
dore has sent his remains to us, as the last tribute
he could pay, to one endeared to him, by every
quality, that renders estimable the officer and the
man. Into the narrow cell apt ointed for all living,
we commit him, knowing that even in his ashes,
"his wonted fires" will live for the imitation of his
Children, and the emulation aloe Countrymen.
Yet another of these gallant spirits, whose lifeless
forms ate before me, claims the tribute of a passing
sigh.—Near us is deposited her who loosed him in
youth, and cherished him in manhood ; a her side
will he he laid, until the morning of the resurrection.
When the present war called to arms the youth
and the chivalry of the Country, he wanted to go,
and yet filial affection caused him to hesitate, and
"Then said the Mother to the Son,
And pointed to his shield,"
Come with it when the bottle's done,
Or on it, from the field."
Here is the gallant fellow on his shield, pierced
by more than twenty arrows from the quiver of the
enemy. That Mother is dead. Ho fell at Puebla,
with sixteen of our brave townsmen of the Duquesne
Greys, overwhelmed by numbers, and fighting with
the prowess which became him and the corps to
which he was attached.
Lieutenant Sewell—for to this appellation he is
entitled, by promotion from the President of the
United States, without a knowledge of his death,
and with an appreciation of his meritorious services
at Vera Cruz and Cerro Gordo—was a most estima
ble young gentleman, strictly correct in his public
deportment, and scrupulous of the amenities of
private life. Sister and
. Drother mourn his loss, and
cherish the posthumous honors paid to his memory.
.When. the heroic sons of Pennsylvania, - who
have
.hazarded everything for their country, shall' return,

false phi'osaphy, why thisrporop':ned• parade, this
folly and vanity ; why not let these bones be con
signed to, the deep, or to whitest the soil:Mexico;

Will put on an incorruption--and . althe hit day, the

ty' of patriarchial example—"ltury me. not,,, I pray
thee, in'F:gypt ; but I Will be with my fathers; and
thou shalt carry me out of Egypt and bury me in
their burying place." This solemn injunction of
the father to the son was, with filial reverence,
obeyed ; although he might have commanded the
proudest place in the Catam.mbs. 4 . And there went
up with him both Chariots and' horsemen F . and it
ryas a very great company." And if we were com
pelled to resort to apocryphal testimony, we might
cite the respect of Simon for The bones of hie broth
er Jonathan, which he buried in Moilin,—.< All
Israel made great lamentation for him, and bewailed
him many days. Simon also built a monument upon
Vie sepulchre of his father and brethren, and raised
it aloft to the sight, with hewn stone behind and
before."
" Moreover be set up seven pyramids, and in
these he made cunning devices, about which he set
great pillars, and upon these pillars he made all
their armour for a. perpetual memory, and by the ar
mour ships carved; that they might be seen or all :hat
sail on the sea. This: is the sepulchre which he
made at Modin, and it standeth yet, unto this day."
It is a custom, too, honored by the observance of
all nations, heathen and Christian. To enumerate
them from urn burial to the simple commitment of
6 6 Dust to Dust and Ashes to Ashes," would neither
convince nor correct the unbeliever.
Besldes, who is there with - a spark of true affec
tion lingering in hie heart, that does not feel elated
and subdued by a scene like this; and who is there,
that does not cling with fondness to the inanimate
bodies of those who were in life the objects of their
love and admiration. The Egyptians,,thc Greeks,
the Romans, and even the Turks, paid commenda
ble attention to the burial of the dead. The lofty
Pyramid, the Cave, the Rock, the field, each and all,
were 81 t apart in respectful revervence for the last
offices due to humanity.
And shall we, in this golden era of the world—
this enlightened age of thought and action—be in
different to social iefinement, or the gentler charac
teristics of civilization.
To the earth, then, we commit these corruptible
bodies, that in hue honored their names and profes
sions; looking to the general resurrection at the last
day, when that which " is sown in meekness shall
he raised in power, and that which is suv,n in dis
honor shall be raised in glory."
Myrziontsr CONFERENCE.—The proceedings of
yesterday would not be interesting to our readers.
Reports of Committees were read and acted upon ;
and memorials received and referred. One memo

of Property question, justice might be done, by giv
ing the Southern division of the Church a propor
tional amount. The case of appeal by a clergyman
who had been suspended by the Utica Conference,
was taken up. We did not hear the result of the
discussion upon his appeal.l"',4)" In this case it ap

the appellant by the Utica conference, was one for
practising Mesmerism.
