New York, December 4. - The interior of the Church of the Divine .Paternity presented to-day a sombre] and "beautiful appearance. The pulpit was heavily draped in crape, and long lines of erape were suspended from every pillar and every butmeut of the beautiful Gothic interior. The several "eflerings in the church were exquisite in design and appropriateness. Principal among them were the following: "I know that my Redeem? er liveth," in red, on white ground and green border. At the rear of the pulpit was a sheaf of wheat from Chappaqua, in the form of a crown, and suspended over-head a pen and an axe. - Around the pulpit were inumerable of? ferings of flowers and wreaths. In front of the pulpit was a beautiful design in flowers, with the words in the centre, "It is done," on white ground, purple letters and green border!. On a tablet to the left of the pulpit was a floral wreath, bearing the letters H. G. Then there was in flowers a plow, from the Tribune office; a quill from the German Greeley Club ; a bas? ket of dowers, with a crown and cross, from the Lincoln Club, and floral offerings from the Lotus, Arcadian, Herald, and other clubs. As early as 9 o'clock crowds flocked to the church, but only those having tickets succeeded in gaining admission. By 10 o'clock, the gal erics, which had been reserved for the ladies, were crowded. About quarter before 11, Presi? dent Grant entered, and immediately following him were Senator Henry Wilson, Minister Washburne and Secretary of War Belknap. They took seats on the right of the pulpit There were also present Carl Schurz, Lyman Trumbull and Vice-Presidcnt Colfax. Mr. Colfax took a seat next to'the President.? Promptly at 11 o'clock, the. funeral procession started from Mr. St. Clair's house, in 45th street. Many affecting scenes took place there during the morning. Mr. Greeley's daughters were inconsolable in their grief. The corpse ^ris borne by ten men. Next came the clergy, theraourners and then the Tribune Association ; next the Herald Club; then following in sue cession the military and civil officers of the j United States located in this and adjoining cities; officers of the Government, of the State of New York,.and of other States now in this city; the Mayor and members of the Common Council; Mayor and members of the Common Council of Brooklyn, Jersey City, Long Island City, Newark and Elizabeth; representatives from Philadelphia, Baltimore and other cities; then came the Judges from all the courts and a line of citizens of immense length. At 11.20 the procession entered the church. The solemnity of the scene was of the most .impressive character. The stillness was such - 'that it seemed as though the people in tue ehurch scarcely breathed. Among those pres ,ent were Postmaster General Cresawell, General Dix, Gov. Morgan, General Sheridan, Go v. Randolph, of New Jersey, and a committee of 'twenty from the Union League Club. Rev. Dr. Chapin opened the funeral ceremonies by reading selections from the Scriptures; many .of the allusions being peculiarly appropriate to .the character of the departed. Miss Clara Louise Kellogg next sang very touchingly, "I know that my Bedeemer liveth;" after which Bev. Henry Ward Beecher delivered the funer ,al oration. He said no one dies whose death is not momentous. Of all who have passed away, not one has gone, for a long time, who will carry with him so much reverence, so j much, honor, so much devotion. Who is the t man. who gets all these civic honors? Who is this man ? Was he one of those great princes of wealth ? Was he one of great military re? nown ? No I And yet here are men from every walk in life; here is our Chief Magis? trate ; here are the most prominent citizens from all parts of the country, gathered around the bier of this man, who is now no more. Here we see that criticism is disarmed. A lit? tle time ago, and men's political passions were 'all aroused, and we differ as much on politics as ever; but here lies before us this man, who but a brief time ago, was a great leader iu the I land; and why do men of all parties gather j here in reverence around his remains ? It is bec.au.-c the man is greater than his politics. tE&i to-day, between the two oceans, there is scarcely a man or child who hits not felt the beneficent influence of the character of Horace j Greeley. Horace Greeley gave the strength of his life to the education of humanity, and es- j pecially to the care of the poor, who could ) little help themselves. He had a great heart, that longed for sympathy. Though he may not be remembered by those memorials which earry other men's names down, he will be re? membered throughout this land for those great qualities of mind and heart which make his character commensurate, as it were, with the fenius of this great republic. His influence as gone out to teach a nobler manhood to the mechanic, the -aborcr and the farmer. What more can we say in eulogy of the character of this illustrious dead? Alas, alas ! he, through a long and not interopestous voyage, has reach? ed the shore. How blessed the dead that die in the Lord ! May God grant that In the so? lemnity of these thoughts in which we have gathered here, it may be our happy lot that when we die, angels shall open the gates and receive us into the glory of the Lord. After an ode by a quartette from St. Francis Xavicr's Church was sung, Dr. Chapin said : "To-day, in the freshness of his power, Horace Greeley is laid by the side of his beloved wife. As a pastor and a personal friend, I cannot now, here, attempt to depict the worth and greatness of the departed journalist. Horace Greeley's epitaph is written in the homes and throughout the length and breadth of the land. I ask you to consider here what it is that brought forth so much love for this man. It was not his official position ; he held none. It was not even his unquestionable genius. It i was the attraction of pure and simple goodness, j The hundreds of toilworn men who yesterday waited for hours to look upon the face of the dead were not drawn there by any mere curios-' ity; they went to look at the features of one 1 who had been their consistent and untiring friend. Horace Grecley struck for what he believed to be right until mind and heart gave way. ? He lies dead upon the field. Let me remind yon that Horace Greeley's life was a remarkably practical one. No man it seems to me, was more given to practical purposes than he. How many lives has he stimulated to wholesome energy I How many great interests of education, and science, and progress mourn him now! All these tributes to-day testify to the recognition of the virtues of this great and good man. The President of the nation joins ?in this tribute to the patriot and to the man. Let me take occasion to nrge Mr. Greeley's views of Christianity. He lived on the essen? tial truths of Christianity. He laid on them his weary head and weary heart, and died weary with the turmoil of life. Does the truth come to us? "I know that my Redeemer liv eth." In Horace Greeley, I recognize a proof of immortality. He looked from the troubles of the surging world to the peace of the g/ave, where the wicked cease from tronbling and/the weary are at res a. I thank God, from my heart and soul, that when all this world was fading from his eyes, he remembered, "I know that my Redeemer liveth." It is and was the tri? umph of his life and of hit death, and now, as we take our brother from this church, which has known him so often, but will know him no more, let this be our lesson?we know that our Redeemer liveta. Farewell, dear friend.? Farewell, noble associate. Farewell, great champion. We know that our Redeemer liv eth; and God grant, that like thee, we may know it when the light of this world is fading from our eyes." The services closed at quarter-past 1 o'clock, but the procession did not move till nearly 2 o'clock. The Benefits of Cheap Cotton. Camden, S. C, Nov. 16,1872. Editor of the South: Cheap cotton would be a patent and acknowledged blessing to all the world save the cotton producer. I propose to show, first?that that blessing is within easy reach of the world; and, second? that the condition of the cotton-producer is such that he will receive greater benefits from the causes which will produce cheap cotton than all "the rest of mankind" will from the cheap cotton. . First.?An average crop of about three and a fourth million i of bales (3,250,000) may be relied on from the Cotton States of the United States, grown on nine millions of acres, and produced by the.labor of soiue two-and-a-half millions of individuals (2,600,000), producing also, however, large provision crops. This shows a product of only about one-third of a bale to the acre?not one-and-a-half bales to the laborer. Yet on some of the thinnest soils in the cotton belt, where intelligence and thrift direct labor, the product not unfrequently is from two-thirds of a bale to one bale per acre?from four to eight bales to the laborer. Within three years the cotton product of the South could be doubled, without adding an acre to the area cultivated, by the infusion of better labor, and by aiding the intelligence en? gaged in cotton culture by capital so much needed. Under pressing embarrassments it is no un? common thing to see the maximum amount above mentioned produced by prudent man? aging men, spite of straitened circumstances and imperfect means; while on neighboring lands ana all other circumstances equally favorable, except industry and thrift, one bale to ten acres is the result. Throughout tL entire South choice lands are tenanted by freedmen, and their crops very often do not reach a bale to the laborer. Of course the proprietors j would rejoice to let much of these lands to in-1 telligent. industrious white men, who would quadruple the product and improve their lands; or they would gladly sell, at low prices, por? tions of their lands, and the capital, thus re? sulting, would enable them to utilize their re? maining lands. But, if necessary, the area of culture could be largely increased, as there are millions of acres of waste land throughout the South that have been resting for ten or twelve years; and moreover, under our changed system of labor and improved culture, there is no necessity for the large quantity of reserved land formerly held on every plantation. With abundant capital and efficient labor it would be difficult to place a limit to the ca? pacity of the South for the production of cot? ton. The product could, by intelligent labor and by capital judiciously used, be doubled on the area now in cultivation. If need be that area could be doubled. Second.?The idea of doubling or quadru? pling the crop of cotton, at first glance, would seem alarming to the cotton-grov/cr, but it is only in the seeming. . The world will need all the cotton that can be produced, and consump? tion will grow as rapidly as production can be forced. ? ? ? I ant confident of my patriotism^ sure of my devotion to the'South, and yet I ardently'long for the existence of causes here that will secure cheap cotton to the world. Capital and popu? lation will secure that end, and capital and population are the great wants of the South. The South would have immediate compen? sation in? 1st. The enhanced value of land. 2nd. The escape from the burdens of taxation by the utilization of inert capital. 3rd. The infusion - of vitality into lands now j wa3te, retained hy proprietors, which would be the recipients of the benefits of the capital resulting from the lands sold. 4th. The diversity of agricultural products resulting from and rendered profitable by in? creased population. 5th. All other agricultural products finding ready market, the farm and family expenses could be paid from these sources, leaving the cotton crop net profit. 6th. Commercial, mechanical and manufac? turing pursuits would 'be so increased as not only to create a demand for al^agricultural products, but would give employment tc>all the more artificial callings now languishing throughout the South. And, Lastly. The social, moral and political bles? sings we would enjoy, and the pressing evils we would escape, would cause us to rejoice over the pecuniary sacrifice, were there any such, though I am well assured that the possession of our waste places by good immigrants from the North would redound an much to the pecu? niary advantage of the South as to its civil, moral and social advancement. Truly yours, Wm. M. Shannon. ?_^ , m Family Worship.?A traveler says, "One of the most beautiful images that ever rose upon my imagination, was suggested to me by a chance delay for two days among the lakes and mountains of the Trosach's Glen. I hap? pened to make the inquiry, what became of the villagers, so suddenly disappearing at nightfall from the streets, and a sandy-haired Scotchman replied: 'Most of them would be at prayer about this time I' And I looked up into the far blue sky, and thought how fine a thing it would be to have a resting place, high enough to hear the murmur of voices, as they read, a verse about, and sang one of the old Psalms, before the impressive hush in which the father offered prayer. How grand would be the swell of sound, when a whole village was going on its knees before God I" ? Samuel J. Lee, the colored Speaker of the House of Representatives, is described as "about thirty years of age, of considerable in? telligence, and well versed in parliamentary law. He was a member of the Constitutional Convention from Edgefield county, and since then has been a member of the Legislature. He was admitted to the practice of law by the Supreme Court last winter, and is now a mem? ber of the House from Aikcn county. He is aflable, polite and courteous in his manners, and will make a good Speaker." i From the Borne (Ga.) Commercial. Bill Arp on Freedom. I'm not reconsiled. I thought I was, but I aint. I've been tryin to make peace, and make friends ever since the confounded old war was over, but it wont do. I've seen folks cussiu around by the day, like they was tryin to get even that way, but they dident. I've knowed some to moan and grieve over it till they pined away and died out of it. I dont know whether that was a success or not. I've seen some set tin around and givin advice like Sokrates and Plato, but it dident do any good. Politishuns and editors have cavorted on the stump and in the nusepapers, hollerin "hello, boys, come here, I've found the way to fix 'em?jist follow me and I'll bring you out. Step this way, gen? tlemen, all ye that are weary, and I'll give you rest." But thar was nary rest?nary satisfac? tion. The poor unrekonstructed women are the worst sufferers. For seven years they have been spankin around waitin for somethin to turn up, and now they are los in patience. I hev thought the children would fare better if we could git even. Poor things?they git many a spankin when their mammys are thiukin about them Yankees and them glorious old times before the war. A woman's a woman, you know, and she's bound to spank sumthin when she's mad. Well, it's powerful hard on em I kuow. The whole thing cum upon us so sudden?so collapsy. It was like we all had moved to another kountry. Them good old nigger days was just blotted out like fallin into a cellar. If we could have slid into it quietly and slantendikular, if slavery could have sorter tapered out and freedom sorter tapered in, ev? erybody could have got used to it. But when freedom cum, it cum like a whirlwind or a waterspout, or an avylanch, or more like a drove of wild pigeons cuming home to roost. It fairly darkened the atmusphear, and it's dark yet. Talk about manners and customs and statisticks! Why we wasent the same people. A Geography made in January, '65, wasent worth a cent in June 1 We dident have the same ways. We was subjued, subjugated, su perseeded, and that new clover begun to spred all over the sunny land. Jim Mullens says it always grows in conkered countries. It was curious to see the darkies steppin off the lot without axin. The pass bisness was abolished j before we ever thought about it. I've got some printed ones now as a memorial: "Let the bearer, Jim, go to his wife's house, at Tom Clayton's, and stay till Monday morn? ing. Wm. Arp." "Here, Bob, go and catch Selim, and saddle him, and bring him here in five minutes, you black raskal?hurry up, you son of a gun, or I'll straiten you with a thrash pole till you cant see. Go sir." Now its : "Oh, see here, Bob, I would like to have my horse brought out, if you aint doing anything partikler; bring him as soon as you can, will you?" And there's the poor women?good souls its all we can do to taper em down to the situ? ation. "What did you spill that water for, Julyann, you lazy, trifling, contemptible huzzy?posi? tively you aint worth the salt thats put in your vittles; dident I tell you that the very next time you spilt water on this floor I'd give you a thousand?now take that?and that?and that?and that. Now go and get your wash rag and come here and wipe it up, you good for nothin imp of darkness." But that's all gone out of fashion, and now its? "Come here, Saray Ann, I want you to go and see your aunt Francis and ask her if she wont please cum and do my washin this week. Tell her I'll be very much obliged to her if she will; now run along and be quick and I'll let you go to the circus." Well, it hurts em, I know it does. It hurts iIm generation mity bad, but the children grow in up and com in on don't mind it, for they never knowed much about slavery times. We old people wont last long no how, and per? haps by the time we pass away and a new crop grows up on both sides, the North aud South, we'll be better friends. I hope so, lor if we havent been an unhappy family for 50 years I don't know where you'll find one. I cant help recallin them old times when my old carriage driver sot up on a high dickey, with a stove pipe hat on, and cracked a proud whip over a pair of crackin blood bays, and a little yaller nig a standin up behind the carriage a boldin to the straps and a feelin bigger and grander than Julius Cesar Demosthenees Alex? ander Bonaparte. Old times, farewell I vain world, farewell! Now I've cot no fore nigger, nor hiud nigger, nor blood nays, nor nothin, and if I want to go anywhere, thank the good Lord for his mercies, I am alloved to walk.? Well, everythings different, even this here newspaper we're a runnin. Them old fashund runaway nigger picters that used to be scat? tered along down a whole column is all van? ished. Them picters of abskonded darkeys just a trottin off with the hind foot stickin up and lookin like the Cop Bide of an Alabama tarapin; a stick on the shoulder and a little I bundle on the end of it; gone, all gone 1 "Bun away from the subscriber, a coal black nigger, named Dave, about T7"yesrs old, 5 feet 6 inches high. Anybody catch in him and j lodgin him in jail cari git $20 reward." Darn 'em?there's rnore of 'era catch the jail now than they did then. Them old pictur dies are for sale chtap atthisjoffis. They aint no use now'^but tie jail is,ntsiept full from ' court to courf. Sdtne of 'em want masters, shure, and they got ,era, too. I reckon Alex- ! ander and Grant's Railroad chain,gang now thinks slavery days was a perfect garden of Eden. But somehow I like the plagy things, and while I last ou the top side of the sile I want 'em hangin around. I like my dog Bowse, and I like them ; but blame my cats ef I like the way the thing happened. I wish there was some way to get satisfaction. Old Greeley's hand busted, and little Alek's advisiu peace on earth and good will to man ; but I don't like the way it was dun. I want a new deal of the kards. Mrs. Arp don't like it, and as long as she dont, I dont, and I dont expect to. Bill Arp. ?

In a court a man who was called upon to appear as a witness could not be found. On the judge asking where he was, an elderly gen? tleman rose up, and, with much emphasis,said: "Your Honor, he's gone." "Gone I gone I" said the judge, "where is he gone?" "That I cannot inform you," replied the communicative gentleman, "but he's dead." This is considered the most guarded answer on record. ) Facts from Scripture Worth Knowing. ?There were ten generations from Adam to Noah, embracing a period of 1056 years. La mech was of the ninth generation. He was Noah's father, and was 56 years old when Adam died. Therefore Lamech could communicate to his son Noah all that Adam had, communi? cated to himi about the creation and'the fall.? It was transmitted by Adam to Lamech, and by Lamech to Noah. There were ten generations from Noah to Abraham, embracing a period of 950 years. Shem was Noah's son, and Shem lived long enough to talk with Abraham sixty years, and could therefore communicate to him all that Lamech had told Noah. There were five generations from Abraham to Moses, embracing a period of 500 years. Ja? cob was Abraham's grand-son, and lived long enough to tell Amram, the lather of Moses, all that he had learned from his grand-father Abraham. Thus, Moses became well informed upon the history of the creation and the fall by a transmission of all the details through a chain of only four persons, and those four were men remarkable for their truth and great wisdom,, These generations all descended from Seth, the son of Adam. There was another line of eight generations who descended from Cain, but who were all cut off by the flood. In that line were some remarkable men to 'whom we owe much for our knowledge of music and ar? tifice in metals, viz: Jubal and Tubal Cain.? No doubt the results of their skill and inven? tions were handed down through Noah and his sons to succeeding generations. Abraham had eight children?one by Sarah, one by Hagar, and six by Keturah. Of these six, one was named Midian; and it was his descendants and the descendants of Ishmael (another son) who sold Joseph to Fotiphar. It seems that the Midianites and iahrmelites were journeying together with a caravan.' The longevity of mankind kept up well to near the flood. After this, it decreased with every generation down to Joseph, who lived to be only 110 years. From that period to this, the age of man has varied but little, though but few men attain to a greater age than three score years and ten. The Book of Genesis embraces a period of 2,500 years of the world's history, which brings it down to the birth of Moses. All the other books of the Old Testament embrace a period of only 1,500 years.?Rome Commercial. ? If you have the nightmare be careful not to have one afflicted with the epizootic. ?
