New York, April "J7?With
military pomp and splendor never
before witnessed in this county.
was dedicated to-day the magnificent
monument erected by the
people of the county to the memory
of Ulysses 8. Grant. The ceremonies
took place m the presence
of a great multitude of people.
Six miles of streets were
lined with DeoDle estimated to
number over 1,000,000. It was a
tribute of the populace to the
great American general that has
no parallel in American history.
Ah all Europe honored Napoleon's
interment under the dome
of the Invalids, so did all America
honor tyrant to-day. There
was assembled on the high knoll
of the drive, on ino numerous
stands erected about the tomb,
such a gathering of men of eminence
from far and near, as was
strange to even cosmopolitan New
Vork. Standing within the very
shadows of the monument itself
were the President and Vice
President, the members of his
cabinet, all the living noted generals
of the county, the diplomatic
corps, representing (jreat Krituin,
Germany, France, Russia,
China and other nations; members
of conerross and of Mm
country, the govenors of scores of
States, members of different, legislative
bodies throughout tlie
country, prominent Confederate
soldiers with whom (Irani crossed
swords in tin* sixties, all bent upon
honoring the memory of
Ameica's celebrated soldier.
unseatptio.n or tiii: tomii.
The (fruit tomb is massive. yet
well relieved by pillars and otiler
embellishments. The ground
upon which it rests is 1 -10 feet
above the river and the strucfuio
lit ts itself 1 T."? feet in the air. The
exterior of the building is of light
granite and all of the interior is
linished in white marble. The
porch is approached bv a llight
of steps 7<> feet wide. At the
southern exposure is the opening
of the crypt. It is 30 feet wide in
the center of the chamber, booking
down into the vault, the great
saroophus holding the remains of
General Grant is to be seen. This
sarcophus was made from one
piece of Wisconsin porphyry, and
is said to excel in beauty the Finland
porphyry, from which the
sarcophagus of Napolean was chiselled.
Besides this, is a place for
another. Here a duplicate some
day will hold the remains of Mrs.
Grant. The sarcophagus is of a
me Homier, pairioi ami cuixen.
At least 12 years have passed
since the hero vigil ended and the
hrave spirit of Ulysses S. Grant
fearlessly took its Might. Lincoln
and Stanton had preceded him,
but of the mighty captains Grant
was the first to be called. Sherman
and Sheridan survived him
but have since joined him on the
other shore. The great heroes of
the civil strife on land and sea
are for the most part now no
more. Thomas and Hancock, Logan
and McUherson, Farragut,
Dupont and a host of others have
passed forever from human sight.
Those remaining grow dearer to
us and from them and the memory
of those who have departed,
generations yet unborn will draw
their inspiration and gather
strength for patriotic purposes. A
j great life never dies. Great deeds
are imperishable; great names
immortal. General Grant's servicp
unit pliarflplnr will pnntimiA
undiminished in influence and
: advance in the estimation of
mankind, so long as liberty remains
the cornerstone of free
government and integrity of life,!
the guaranty of good citizenship. J

PRESIDENT MCKINLKY'S ADDRESS.
' Fellow Citizens : A great life,'
dedicated to the welfare of the
nation here finds its earthly coro'
nation. Even if tais day lacked
the inipressiveness of ceremony
and was devoid of pagentrv it
' would be memorable, because it
is the anniversary of the birth of

[ beloved of American soldiers.

successful completion of tliis work

cends the limitations of sectional
lines. Its completion, which we
pray God to speed, will be the
nation's greatest glory.
"It is right, then, that General
Grant should have a memorial
commensurate with his greatness
and that his last resting place
should be the city of his choice,
to which he was so attached in
life, and of whoso ties he was not
forgetful even in death. Fitting,
too, is it that the great soldier
should sleep by the side of the
noble river on whoso banks he
first learned the art of war and of
which ho became master and
leader without a rival.
"But let us not forget the glorious
distinction with which the
metropolis among llio fair sister
hood of American cities ha<l honored
liis life and memory. With
all that riches and sculpture can
do to render the edifice worthy
of the man upon a site surpassed
for magnificence has this monument
been reared by New York
as a perpetual record of his illustrious
deeds, in the certainty
that as time passes around it will
assemble with gratitude and reverence
and veneration of all
climes, races and nations.
"New York holds in its keeping
the precious dust of the silent soldier,
but his achievements?what
he and his brave comrades
wrought for mankind?are in
the keeping of 70,000,000 American
citizens, who will guard the
sacred heritage forever and forever
more.''

Another i'ntastroplie on the

An unlucky star has evidently
been shining on the Southern for
the past two weeks. First there
came the head end collision at
llarrisburg, just above Charlotte,
then the accident at Cayce's, near
Columbia, in which Conductor
Thoinar Smiley lost his life, and
Sunday night there was a wreck
at Hlarksburg which will cost the
1 road thousands of dollars.
The Northbound local passenger
left Iilaoksburg at 7 :05 Sunday
night. When about three
miles north of Blacushurg there
i came a crash. The engine was
( thrown on its side, the tender remained
stationary, while the
mail and baggage cars were piled
on top of the engine. The lirst
and second class coaches were
derailed,but the Pullman sleepers
; kept to the rails. After an in|
vestigation it was found that in
some mysterious way the end of
one of the rails had bent upward,
impaling the tender, and stopping
j the train suddenly and forcibly.

In County Sligo, Ireland, there

fabulous depth. A professor hap;
pened to be in that part of Irei
land last summer and started out
j one day for a ramble among the
mountains, accompanied by a native
guide. As they climbed, Pat
asked him if he would like to see
this lake, "for it's no bottom at

"Hut how do you know that,
Pat?" asked the professor.
"Well, sorr, I'll tell ye ; me own
