When the cheering was at its loudest and when the wind had somewhat died away, a touching scene was enacted, which was seen by few. Silently Mrs. Grant stole away from the President’s reviewing stand, where she had been watching the gallant troops go by, and, leaning on the arm of her son, Col. Grant ma^e her way to the tomb, followed only by the members of the Grant family. The bronze doors were opened and the widow of the hero passed from the outside wjorld into the quiet of the tomb. For about ten minutes she stayed there. And tbcn r with her face hidden in her bands, she, left the scene. Soon after this.
