Mutlfled drums. the wail of mourniful, b
diu ge-like music, craped hantners, and the ni
slow martial tread olsoliers, have to day
done honor to tImo mouldering bones of the
once unoble, chivalric and dauntless Ste phetn sI
Decatur, the hero of Trip)oli, the conqueror tI
of the Maccedniann, the almost victor over
a combined Englisht fleet olT Sandy hiook. s'
I have seldon, seen.a more impressive .Io
erermonil. anti as the lines of troops fil
marched past, with iheir artillery sweeping pi
along-the roll tof the itoruful drum, the el
clashiing cry of the gong and the shrill com- s
plaiiug of u ho trumpets, gave on inidescri
iable air of solemnity to the scene. Poor di
ecatur-hadl h~e lived lie could now have
ben the hale veteran of but 67 years-the re
junior of muity now in the servied. and his fe
undmunted tread iih yet have been seent sI1
upon the quarter tdeck, before UhIa or hi
Monterey. There is a romatnce in the ei
noutticalcreer of Decatur, which has tall re
beena brought back freshly to remembrance r
y the scenes of to-day. Thd burniing of
rho Philadelphia frigate tunder the guns of b
Tripoli, the most daring act in ilhe world's ni
history-the conqgnest of the Macedonian at

Londoi-crippling and silencing the bnt- th
teries of-. the Enidymion,. before a whole m
British leet-his. entire subjugation of the sti
Barbary powers, and, in fact, every action sh
of his life seem thc works of.a demi-god and
not one of mortal mould. . ..
The funeral of Decatur,. after his onfor- re
