AND hundreds of friends of the late Charles The General Passenger Agent of the S. Cone, Ohio and Mississippi Road, paid their respecta memory yesterday by witnessing the to his sad rites. Although the day was dark, last rainy, dreary and inclement in all the word implies, the number who ventured out showed, conclusively, of the the high deceased estimation in held which the those who knew him in life, memory was by but few days before a picture of health and in the full enJoyment of after his early time ambition. the special There train was left not the depot for Delhi that the rain did not fall a minute the in torrents.

They were from almost every of minds the United States, Many of the brightest in the management of both passenger and freight trame were present, and bad of come from their homes in honor the dead, that they might strew immortelles and shed tears of grief over the newly made grave of ap honored and respected friend who sleeps beneath, The morning trains from Louisville and St. Louis brought hundreds of his friends from the above-named cities, and from many of the cities and towns along the line of the road. As early as twelve o'clock the Ohio and Mississippi Depot was thronged with funeral people in waiting for the departure of the train, which was advertised to leave at one o'clock. The train consisted of an engine.

baggage-car, eight passenger coaches and one Baltimore and Ohio sleeper, which were all weil filed. THE FUNERAL CEREMONIES Were held at the late residence of the deceased. and were conducted by Rev. K. C.

Trimble, of the First Presbyterian Church of Seymour, he having performed the marriage ceremony when the deceased was married to the lady who is now his widow. The ceremony was brief, though fitting, just and appropriate. The reverend gentleman spoke briefly though touchingly upon the tragic of the deceased, coupling with it the illustration of life's uncertainty; that between life and death there is but a step, and in this case there was special solemnity, associating with it the swiftness of the fatal step from the fullness of health to the dark river of death. He spoke briefly, though traly, relative to the merits of the deceased, who but yesterday stood apon the threshold of worldly ambition, ready to grasp a position higher in the world's fame. His liberality, generosity and kindness toward mankind were marked traits in the character of the deceased.

ever exhibited while in the household or while in the discharge of his daily labors. In conclusion the minister referred to the extreme popularity of the dead; yet he had reason to anticipate a great feeling of pathy and respect for his memory, but not so great as was demonstrated by the presence of so large a number, and the great profusion of floral offerings, though intrinste without value. they carried with them the sentiments of friendship and love. The music for the occasion was furnished by a quartet of voices com posed of Mrs. Annie Beattie, sopraDo: Mrs.

Nettie G. Grose, alto; Mr. George D. Newhall, basso, and Mr. J.

F. Dannie, The selections sang were: "Nearer, My God, to Thee." "Asleep in and "Rock of Ages." THE FLORAL TRIBUTES Were numerous and handsome. There were in number twenty pieces of various sizes and designs. Among the largest and most handsome was a passenger coach four feet long, about twenty inches high and the same wide. resting on trestle- about two feet high, which was a tribate from the local traveling passenger and freight agents.

On one side of the car were she letters in violet telles. Another was a tribute from the General Passenger Agents of this city of 8 desk and chair, composed chiefly of callas, carnations, lilies of the valley and primroses. In the seat of the chair was the word "Vacant." while on the desk remained a piece of unfinished manuscript, with "February 17" in immortelles, the date of his death. The chair was setting in a position representing a temporary absence, being half turned from the desk. Another large design, representing "The Gates Ajar," was an offering from the Passenger, Agents' Association of St.

Louis. Tuis was about seven feet high, with ivy, bordered with white immortelles. On the top of the arch was large cone, emblematic of the On the front side WAS the name, 8. Cone, jun."

On last Saturday a special meeting of the Executive Committee of the Cincinnati and Eastern Railroad Company was held at the Company's office in the Albany Building, at which tase General Agent. Mr. W. Henley, presented a report from the Railroad Committee at Portsmouth, showing very encouraging results.

so much that the Committee accepted the subscriptions as far as made, and recommended a meeting of the Directors to be held next Saturday, when that portion of the line between Otway, Seloto County. and Brush Creek will be let for construction. The letting of the remainder will be deferred a few days till the subscriptions are completed, and the amount of the same will deterinine the route by which the road will enter Portsmouth. Considerable enthustasm exists in Portsmouth over the prospect of the speedy completion of this road, which will be such a voluahle feeder to the business of that prosperous The citizens of Georgetown are pressing their claims for the construction of a branch of the Cincinnati and Eastern to their enterprising town, and thence ou to the Ohio River at Ripley. On last Thursday a Committee from Georgetown met President McGill at his office and submitted a plan, which was approved, and immedtate steps will be taken for the construction of the branch.

The business prospects of the Cincinnatt road are equini to the wishes of its most ardent friends, of whom there are many. The Executive Committee at its late meet1ng instructed the Chief Engineer, Mr. Young, to immediately determine the best route to Gallipolis, thus taking the road through some of the best coal-felds of Ohio, THE H. AND D. AND THE 0., AND I.

ROADS STILL ABOVE THE WATER. The roads entering the city on the west side are all under water except the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton and the Bee Line. The tracks of the D'eio and Mississippi near Mill Creek are submerged, while the cago Cincinnati, and the Marietta and Cincinnati are all Indianapolis, St. Louis and Chiunder water from the Plum-street Depot as far down as Mill Creek. In the bed of the canal the water about four feet deep and still rising.

The trains on the Marietta -and Cincinnati Road will, until the waters recede, arrive and depart from the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton Depot. The Cincinnati, Indianapolis, 8t. Louis and Chicago Road is temporarily uses shut off from depot facilities, unless it the Ohio and Mississippi; but if the water continues to rise the latter road will not be able to use its own The Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton and depot. Bee Line feel that they ure high and dry, and in no immediate danger of being interfered with by the turbulent waters. A NEW FEATURE AT THE H.

AND D. DEPOT. Superintendent Barrett has introduced new and popular feature at the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton Depot, by opening a package and parcel room, where persons making purchases in the city store packages until whatever time they wish to call for them, at a small price. In other oities where this system has been introduced it has become quite popular. This is so arranged that merchants can purchase checks for use in their places of business, and by giving the purchaser a duplicate check of the one altached to the parcel, which is then sent to the depot by the merchant, thus datiog the purchaser and no trouble to find the package when called for.

It would seem that Mr. Barrett does not propose to allow the patrons of his road to want for a single convenience that he can supply them with. IN GOOD CONDITION, Mr. M. Bowen, the popular Road -master of the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton and Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis Road, was in the city yesterday.

The Joker," as his friends call him, reports both roads in very good shape. Mr. Bowen has the honor of having borne off the drst prize ever offered by the Pittsburg, Cincinnati, aud St. Louis Road for the neatest, most substantial and best laid track on that extensive system. His Ideas on roud engineering were afterward copied by the Pennsylvan Railroad.

Ands here a city that It thinks very old--nearly as old as Adam, is considers, not to speak of Ptolemy and Cecrops St. Augustine bearing date 1565. It the oldest place in the United States, vet in Europe would be a very modern town. It was three hundred Fears old at the close of. the re bellion, only about twice the age of Old Part, and General Oglethorpe, who tried to capture it when it was two bundred years old, lived to such an age that three such lives as his would nearly have spanned the whole history of St.

Augustine. We may consider that it was founded at the Massacre of St. Bartholomew, which bloody settlement and religious massacres prefigured. Yet the church stands now in Paris which toosined that event. The Tulleries.

destroyed but yesterday by the Paris Communists, was built by the mother of the King who commanded the massacre of St. Bartholomew to begin. France had long been at the laying of the first stone in this little town a glittering monarchy with her great Barons subdued to the crown. The English Episcopal Church was born, Columbus had been so long dead that he was aimost forgotten, art had spread from Italy to Western Europe, and Americus or Amerigo had seen the Continent to which he gave name nearly seventy years before. Florida itself had been invaded half century, or half the span of duration of our Republie.

A man named Cabot bad made the voyage nearly seventy years before St. Augustine, which determined the proprietorship of North America and gave English titles to you and me, and St. Augustine was a small episode on the tail of that title, though preceding it, like the tadpole in the pool which precedes the birth of the goldeyed toad. The younger United States of Holland was already born under the same Orange colors which smolder like globes of sullen fire on the garden trees of St. Augustine, deeper than the yellow tint in the gorgeous ensign of Spain, and juicy with the sweets of religious liberty.

8t. Augustine is a baby in the annals of history. Yet this infant has the old face of a dwarf on closer Inspection. It is more than years older than Jamestown and John Smith, nearly seventy years older than Ply month Rock and Miles Standish, a century older then William Penn and Philadelphia. It was full of social life and the scars of war before Galileo.

Cromwell, Gustavus Adolphus or Peter the Great were born. Here it is, a little town of three long streets and several little lanes, crouching behind an old stone fort, pitched on a sand plain, beside a breezy see inlet, swallowed up in palm and trees, and the tour bells on the old Catholic Church strike like cow -bells as I write from the herds of King Philip's cows who wandered here in the days of the Duke of Alva. St. Augustine was visited in hot June, 1564, by ADMIRAL COLIGNY EXPEDITION, Under Dis captain, Rene de Laudonniere; Rene Was a little, self-important Huguenot.

pear the mouth of St. John's River. Then Jean de Ribaut, another Huguenot, who had discovered the St. John's River, sailed from Dieppe in 1565 with seven sail and more than five hundred men. Five weeks after Ribaut left France.

Menendez, a Spanish officer, left Cadiz with a large expedition to overhaul these heretics. Both expeditions arrived nearly at the same time in Florida. The Spanish regarded the French colonization as en intrusion upon the lands discovered by Ponce de Leon and De Soto. Menendez, sailing from Porto Rico, named St. Augustine in September, 1565.

About three weeks later Menendes, marching overland from St. Augustine, stormed the French fort, culled Caroline, on the St. John's, at daybreak, and driving a part of the garrison to the woods butchered or hanged the rest, putting over them the inscription: "Not as Frenchmen, but as Then returning to St. Augustine the victors celebrated Mass and sung a Te Deum. All this in the reign of Charles IX, a little while before the massacre of St.

Bartholomew. A few days afterward two different parties of Frenchmen, one of 208 persons and another of 150, were massacred near St. Augustine by the bloody Menendez after the politest diplomacy: among them fell their commander, Ribaut, singing the psalm, Domine memento Europe was thrilled with horror at this deed. Laudonniere, having abandoned Ribaut, died in obscurity In France. Philip King of Spain, highly commended Menendez, and Pope Pius wrote to his "beloved son, Pedro Menendez," "We give you our paternal and apostolic benediction." "Given at Rome, 1509, at St.

Peter's, with the ring of the Fisherman." King Philip, who also murdered his own son, wrote: "You did it with every justification and propriety, and we consider ourselves to have been well served in your so doing to the Lutheran pirates." More than three hundred yoars have passed; it 18 Tuesday; hear the Lutheran Church bells ringing in the soft air of Florida, and see processions people pouring to the Lutheran and churches. But I where are Menendes, Philip Pius? walk out to the old Spanish port and enter its black dungeons. think am seeing the thick darkness which has settled on their memories and the silence that grows like the wild palmetto in these neighboring felds now upon more splendid domain than all the their glories and cruelty. Florida is property of the successors of St. Peter.

TIT FOR TAT. Charles son of Catherine de Medicis, and brother-in-law of Mary Queen of Scots, made no reply to the appeal of the hundreds of French widows for revenge; but a well-todo Huguenot, Dominic de Gourgues, who had made his fortune in the South American trade, and had worn Spanish fetters in the galleys, set sail with a little expedition by stealth, taking only one hundred and eighty soldiers and seamen, and, sailing by the est Indies, anchored at Fernandina, Florida, in 1667, and, recruiting Indians, who cordially hated the Spanish, be captured two of the his Spanish forts and hanged two score of prisoners on the same ouk trees, under the Inscription: "Not Spaniards, outcasts, but traitors, thieves and Some of the very executioners band were strung up in the spot before. they The had Spanish desecrated garrisons had three outnumnearly bered him four to one. De Gourgues reached La Rochelle in triumph; King Philip demanded his head; he was hated by Charles but died in command of a fleet of France. The fort at St.

Augustine was not one of De Gourgues' conquests. Menendes all this time was in Spain pursuing honors and supplies; he came home bait and found his people half dead, the other demoralized; but he was DOW also Governor General of Cuba, and bound to convert Indians, and his missions reached from Florida to the was made a Marquis, and died in 1574, Captain- General of the Spanish some say dying of a fever, some say by saloide.

They took the town and drove the inhabitants into the fort. The fort Was too strong for their cannon. The Carolinian commander, Governor Moore, then burned St. Augustine to the ground. This expedition, costing £6.000, led to the issue of the first paper money in America.

There Was uo more war with the English for pineteen years, when the Intter captured Havana itself, and in 1768 Spain ceded Florida to England for the restoration of Cuba. Florida then embraced all the coasts of and Mississippi, and part of the coast of Louisiana.

While the Spanish had only spent $150.000 year on all Florida, the English spent in three years 82,900,000. In 1778 Pensacola had some hundreds of houses, a timber fort and a stone palace with a tower.

The rest removed to St. Augustine, and have descendants in the north part of the city. In our Revolutionary war Tories from Georgia and Carolina settled in Florida by invitation, generally near St.

At the capture Charleston by the sixtyone gentlemen of South Carolina were sent hostages to St. Augustine, and remained there a year, some of them, like General Gadsden, in the fortress. Among them were der Moultrie, Arthur Middleton and Edward Rutledge. In 1781 the industrious Tortes of Florida exported to the amount of negroes continued to be brought in direct from Africa, and Florida indigo and naval stores were the best in the world.

St. Augustine then contained three sand inbabitants, and was bailt of wood and brick and the native Coquina stone, with large barracks, three stone churches, and the old fort or castle, with its casemates, four bastions, ravelin, counter-scarp and glacis, In the many gardens were China and Seville oranges, figs, guavas, citrons, a shaddocks, The residence had belvedere, grand Doric portico and piazzas.

In 1795 France received from Spain much of West Florida. and eight years later the United States possessed it. Thus Spanish Florida in our second war with England was a much contracted Province. The Americans thought the British would seek to occupy it, and, tnerefore, Alibusters seized the smuggling Fernandina, and marched to within sight of St. intimidated Augustine, them.

where The Governor English, Es- in trado 1814, occupied Pensacola with the assent of the Spanish, whereupon General Andrew Jackson, with Ave thousand stormed the city and destroyed the fortifications. English emissaries in Florida after the war incited Indians and fugitive slaves to invade Georgia, and hence General Jackson hanged Aidister and Arbuthnot in 1818.

Attempts were at once made to remove the cheerful race of Sem Indians, whose great crime was giving if with hospitality to a suffering human creature, black skin, on whose track were the bloodhounds of Georgia and Alabama. The Seminoles would not be removed, and awoke the admiration of Europe and the North by their heroism under Osceola and others. The Seminole war lasted from 1885 to 1842, seven years, like our Revolutionars war, and cost our Government 000,000 and the use of four successive -Jesup, Taylor, Armistend and Worthand their 82.000 men. A New York State Yankee, of Nantucket Inland stock, New General York. Worth, whose monument stands in was the moral and military hero of this war, and, next to Andrew Jackson, is the founder of American Florida, In point of morals, the Seminoles were right from the outset, and the war was one of the miserable monuments of uneary and bullying slavery.

The fellow who began the war, an Indian agent, Wiley Thompson, was responsible for its barbarities. He treated the Indians like his slaves, and when he bullied Osceola, that half Indian said: "Am lone of your negroes- your slaves? My skin is dark, but I am Seminole dian!" Thompson put him in irons, and Osceola's band shot him dead, and immediately afterward massacred Major Dade's alar soldiery, of over one hundred men; only two escaped. Two months afterward the skeletons were found as they fell. The negro slaves in St. Augustine heard of this massacre with.

fear and gratitude. It was the first tame in our history that two full companies of regulars had been blotted out by the same number of Indians. Soon afterward OSCEOLA, At the head of negroes and Indians, beat the Florida volunteers in pitched battle. All the sugar plantations were now abandoned and St. Augustine became frontier town.

A large expedition of 1,100 regulars, under Gaines, were nearly captured by Osceola, and General Winfield Scott proved mere fuss and feathers against the Seminoles. Volunteers poured in from the Slave States, and the Indians, baying planted no corn, were nearly starved out, and preparing to move West, till prevented by the genius and patriotism Osceola. The greedy whites lay ready to claim every black ally of the Indians a slave, And among them were the brothers, Joe and Ebenezer Johnson, the kidnapers of Delaware, who, some say, bad settled at Tailahasse: under assumed names. General Jesup, In 1896, proclaimed against "the interTerence of unprincipled white men with the negro property of the Heminole Indians," and it was regarded by the kidnapers as an interference with their "constitutional rights." "equilibrium," "freedom," do. Jesup had the enormous army of nine thousand men, onehalt of them regulars.

All the Indians in Florida did not number four thousand, and the negroes among them were less than one thousand more. St Augustine's old fort was the scene of the escape of eighteen Indians under the Chief Wild Cat. Every Indian in the stone casement squeezed his agile body through the single slit for light and defense in the casement, and dropped twenty-five feet into the dry ditch, then up and over the stone glacis and away. General Taylor captured 484 Seminoles st his battle of Okeechobee in 1887. By an set of treachery at a solemn council General Jesup seized 680 Seminoles more.

Osceola was seised in the same way, and died in captivity af Fort Moultrie, brave, youthful, humane and chivalrous foe, the peer of any General in the feld against him, and worthy of poetical celebration in Bryant's well-known lines, Marco Bossaris, his Greek contemporary, by Mr. Bullock's muse. Volunteers from far Missouri, who were to contend against John Brown twenty years later, came to nate the Seminoles.

At the name of Seminoles blood bound would whimper like A poodle.

Bat the Governor of Florida continued to Issue bully proclamations, General Taylor asked to be relieved: he gave it up. Hanging Seminoles, where they could be caught, now got to be a brave amusement of old General Harney. The father of the late Secretary Belknap entrapped some. Van Burn's Administration paid the debts of the Seminole war by being repudiated at the polls. Florida killed Van Baren Texas next.

Hale Cockrell said his objection, and he would renew his motion later. Mr. Vest objected, but the bill was taken up, and the amendments of the Committee thereto adopted without objection. Mr. Call offered a resolution, which at his that instance the was tabled to be printed, reciting interests of peace between nations, cal the between obligations and rights which are reciproall other people and governments of in America America, and the United States as ple well of as the the United commercial interests of the peothat the Government of the render United It States, proper in States, the some proper form, adopt measures to settle controversy between Chili and Peru, and prevent the forcible dismemberment of Peru: that a Congress, to be convened in Washington City and com posed of representatives from the people and Governments of the different North, South and Central Americas, for the purpose of agreeing upon some just method of settlement of the questions now existing, or that shall hereafter arise between these Governments, would be a wise and beneficial measure.

The Senate proceeded to the calendar, and Senator Logan asked to have taken op as first in order the bill to place General Granton the retired list. Discussion of the bill to retire General Grant consumed the session until 8:25. Mr. Logan explained the point he sought to make clear was that the law made no distinetion that as it to the eireumstances of the officer: based retirement only on length of service, wounds or disability. He had been informed by General Shields that the newspaper statement about his having pawned bin sword was not true: he would have died rather than do such a thing.

He (Logan) had been one of that officer's supporters in the effort for his retirement, and wrote a letter in his behalf, which was widely published at the time. Therefore, what had been said on that tieman score did not apply to himself. The genseemed afraid that General Grant might be humiliated; but the friends of that gentleman ought to be the judges on that point. nition As one such he would say, as a recogof the services of the distinguished beneficiary, his retirement would be considered by him as an honor. Mr.

Butler suggested, apon this consideration, similar provision should be made for Generals Franklin, McClellan and other distinguished soldiers. Mr. Logan admitted the entire propriety of any proposition effect. Vest disclaimed any prejudice against General Grant, or auy other Union soldier. To say he or any of his associates who had been identifled with the Confederacy entertained mean and contemptible jealousies against in the man because he had conquered them open fight, was simply to make a personal reflection, to which be would not reply.

The bill comes up again to-morrow. The Pension Arrears resolution was taken up, and Mr. McPherson offered and advocated a substitute declaring the Senate adheres to the principle that pensions shall be computed from the time of disability, and directing the Pension Committee to bring in a bill by which the business of the Pension Bureau may be expedited, and frauds detected and punished. An executive session interrupted discussion, and when the doors were opened, the Senate adjourned. House.

Mr. Hewitt, rising to a question of privilege, referred to a recently-published letter of Jacob R. Shipherd to Minister Hurlbut, of Peru, and to the use of his (Hewitt's) name as being one of the gentlemen with whom Shipherd claimed to be in confidential negotiations. As he was the only member of the House whom Shipherd included in his list of names, it was proper to say he did not know him, and the use of his name by Shipherd was 'entirely without his knowledge, privity or consent. He found on his desk one day a circular which may have related to this business, and which he threw in the waste-basket.

He was also authorized, in behalf of August Belmont, to make a similar disclaimer. Ou motion of Mr. Valentine, of Nebraska, bill was passed authorizing the Secretary of War to lend to Nebraska tents, to be used at the soldiers' reunion to be held at Grand Island, Nebraska. Mr. McKinley, of Ohio, from the Committee of Ways and Means, moved to suspend the rules and pass a joint resolution, refunding to the American revisers of the New Testament the duties paid on the copies of the New Revised Testament for use of the company.

Agreed to, and the bill passed. A resolution authorizing the Secretary of War to grant immediate relief, by issaing rations, to destitute citizens of Arkansas and Louisiana, in Red River Valley, was referred. The bill to establish District United States Courts and officers thereof in the Northern and Southern Judicial Districts of Georgia was agreed to. The bill to promote the efficiency of the life saving services aud encourage saving life from shipwrecks was passed. The bill authorising the payment of the Japanese indemnity fund, $1.770,814, to the Japanese Government, with the exception of $254,000, which shall be paid to the officers crew of the United States ship Wyoming, passed amid applause.

The House then took a recess, the evening session being for the consideration of the District of Columbia Code Bill. The Jeannette Expedition, WASHINGTON, February Hunt received a letter from Hoffman, at St. Petersburg, respecting the relief expedition in search of the Jeannette survivors, and stating the reason why Engineer Melville placed in command of the party was that Lieutenant Danenbower was physically unable to perform the duties of the office, as, in addition to having lost his eyesight, his terrible afflictions had caused a temporary aberration of mind, It is now believed bower has fully recovered his reason, and his general health, as well as thatof other members of his party, is being gradually restored.

The past success of this Dispensary in treating and curing those diseases render absurd the idea that its physicians are not wholly famillar with them, and that their advice is not thoroughly honest.
