When at length the haads oi the great clock of Trinity Church approached the hour of 'J Pror.dway presented an animated re-taelc. As far a the eye could reach the side walks were thronged with people. Every train and every Mer.iuer oure I its lewd into the great artery of travel, llronzcd faces from the country, white faces from the city, cemnting-rooms ami flievs and etirty faet-s from the tenement districts, were iu the crowd, llie-h- and poor, rogue aud rascal, dignitaries and noucnit'ie-s jostled each other em the curbstones and sidewalks. Everybody em to be gool natured, and took the jfr-'tliiig and jamming as a matter of course. The pe.hre tried to keep the people oil' the street, but it was hard work. There were more who wanted to'pos along the walks than there was w i'Hh of I'ussace to contain them. Madison Square was long astir, and troops of s!Kteers wese trailing up Twenty-third street as e-arly as 7::'.u o'clock, w lieu an oine-er on horseback dashed up to the ladies-' entrance of the Fifth Avenue Hotel and. dismounting, took his stand at the eloor. The pca-d gray sash, denoting an ai l of Itcncral Hancock's was across his bri'ast. Tiie 'Cl-er was Ceilemel H-dgcs, d General Hancock's Mff. lie was followed uhortly by a mihi looking gentlcmnn in milit iry uniiorm, who proved to Ik? the Marshal of the Presidential and (ttitjornntori.il eorriage party, Lieuteuaut Colonel Gilie-nie. Their presence attracted i eneirmous crowd to the draped ciXrance to tiie hotel on Twentythird strt.t.tt and the " police were soem called ujhui to clear the sidewalk. The crowd then surged around toward the, main iortal of the hotel, which shortly became impassable. In.-dde an increasing throng of told-laced and uniformed men .blocked every hail and corridor. In the 'main' hall. General Sherman, tall, erect and ameiking a hta'Kisrar, was the center of an admit ing throng. . He stood in a group of naval otl.cers, chatting pleasantly with old friends. The party -were alt fa full nniform, and at-trae-te-d nniveral attention that flapye-d only for a moment when a file of attenelants ot the Japanese Minister ente red. The big marble hall was completely choked with humanity long before o clock. In the big pariors up stairs all was stir and bustle. While the President ml Lis Cabinet Ministers were at breakfast ia one end of the building and the Grant family quietly preparing for the iie-ant at the other e-nd, ,ommitlcc. orgiinintkos and elelegatioiis were gathering and getting rci.dy here there and everywhere. Itadges, sashes ami military eirde rs found way for the members in the M-cmincly inexcusable confusion of swarming humanity. In a eniiet little parlor off the ladies' parlor facing the rejuare ft group of serious men. most of the m gray haired and old. but nearly all erect an 1 of vigerouH physique. were putting ein broad silke:i sashes of white and black. They were the pallUaiers, and they were a striking group. General Sherman suminoMed up from bis friendly eon fab below, resplendent iu military toggery, stood in friendly conversation with a tall man, in whose white moustache and chin beard and soldierly tearing, one ree-oifiiizes at a glance the gallant Conieeleratc, eieneral ltuckner, from whom irnnt rested his first hard won laurels at Fort Donclson.

Hamilton Fish was not among the pall-bearers. lie was sick, and the .President had appointed A. J. Hrexel. of Philadelphia, in his stead. At the last moment it was said that Admiral Worden had been appointed a pallbearer in place of Admiral Kowan. At 8::i)o'clock Colonel Hexlge-s summoned the ipall-bearers to their rarriage. The iTesideut carriage, drawn hv six horses, was called up to the dexr next, but it hadfullv an hour to wait. The President had signified his intention of riling w ith -Secretary iSayard. He was at that time, having finished his bre-aktast, quieilv ce.nvcr?iug ia his parlors on the third floor wit fi ex-Governors Cornell and Robinson, who had called.

As seam as the catafalque had jessed the carriages containing Colonel Freu Grant, his wiie and sister fell in. and the mourners' coaches fell quickly in line without confusion. lleth Mr. ieveland and Mr. Hendricks had tired of the long wait, and after sitting in their earriages, stared at by the curious crowd till 11 :M o'clock, re ti reel to their rooms in the hotel. Thev observed the parade from their windows, and did nat again come out until the catafalque had passed the hotel. Their e-arriages had remained at the door. Sccretarle's Endie-ott and Manning, whose carringes followed the Vie-e Presidents remained in their seats, and the other Cabinet members, w ho rexle in pairs, elid the same. Almest the last carriage had w hceleel into line at Twenty-third street, when there fell in behind one containing an officer with a broad gold baud across hi breast. Two crutches stood up iu the carriage beside him, and proclaimed his name, as the goid scarf had announced his rank. He was Major General Daniel Sickle. Following behind the crippleel veteran's e-arriage there trod a seemingly endless "army with banners," without sham or gold or glitter, but w ith the armless sleeves, the li in j.ing gait and the scarred fa-e-. that stirred men's minds as tlicy passed with tle-ep and strong emotion. These were the dead hero s comrades, w ho shared hi danger on the field of battle, had marched behind his victorious banners over many a read, and now walked with him to his last resting place, so mcny of them soon to follow. Sadly, yet proudly, they walked one more together. Tt'iey eie ail old men, most of tlniu. but they walked bravely and kept up with tne youngest. Some carried canes, nuire walked without support of any kind, all lftd their badge veiled with erajie, and -wore bows of cnrje on the left arm. Their battered banner were veiled in black, and many isost carried as distinctive badges si. rigs of myrtle er evergreen on their breasts. The procession ae-eiiie-d mnding. strete-hing southward as far as the eve e-ould reach the treet all the way to the tomb were packed with people, and, a the right of the column approached the tomb the dull revcriiciationsof the guns frtun the men-of-war .could be he-ard, and tiie troop broke cedumu from the left marching to the right, or east side of the road. After ferrmiuir in line arms were presented and the e-atafaloiietdowly paxse-d. The crowd em Fifth aveuue remained on t'.ie sidewalks w ith remarkable persistency until the long parade had passed. There were a few cases of he-at prostration in the ranks, but so far as known none fatal. At the corner of Fifty-seventh street, where the Jine tnrne-el to the west, the crowd swelled from Ihe side- to the ojk-u way, ami blocked the thoroughfare on twenty occasion. There was some trouble when tne catafalqtie re-ached that ioint. Flverybody was more interested in the appreaieh of this than any other part of the pre-ccsi-ioii. It was watched for bliM'ks a way.tits conspicuous height making it plainly visible as far as gbeiut Fiftieth street. T he crowd naturally bulged into the highway, and had to Ik? threatened with clubs to make them recede, and it was a difficult process. The people were standing eight and ten de'e-p. and some of those in front had raised their umbrellas to kee-p off the sun's rays. Some women stood with babies in arms, and fathers had hoisted their little ones to their shoulders. The obstructions were numerous, and those at the rear were ttecoming Indignant. Put as the catafalque came up, aunoyauce was forf rotten, and only respect was ielt. As it was, the eader of the horses were ordered to make a sweeping turn, and that was the only way in which the interested gathering eon Id W held back. With r spontaneity that told ol their revtrer.ee every man ruised fcls hat as the

It states that they teiok possession of the bureau Juiy '2i, and t'ondticted an investigation leaving no ground for eloubt that the actual condit:on of the survey was one of elenioralixation. anel its werVking incrticient. unjust anel to some extent disreputalde. The regulations are partially to blame, but the late Superintendent is ihargeable with a willingness to avail himself of ep,ortuiiities for a continuatue of abuses, weakness and prexrasti nation, favoritism anel arrogance, elireard of rtguiation and notorious use of intoxicant. This combination seems to have been tlemoralizing to the subordinates. The investigation shows a large number of irregularities, which arc set forth at great length, anel which involve reckless extravagance and gross management. The Commissioners rind that Profess-or Hilgard's habits anel method., his failure of faculty or perversion of moral sense unlit him for a osition of responsibility.

Maxwell, the alleged St. Louis hotel murderer, is supposed to be aboard. Maxwell, when juostioned, refused to make any statement regarding the crime he is charged with, saying that he had been strenuously advised by his counsel before leaving Auckland not to oien his mouth except to put food into it. lie looks cheerful and says he never felt better in his life. The ctlieers were equally reticent, declining to discuss tlvc subject of the crime or Maxwell's supposed connection therewith, lie will be taken cast to-morrow. Un the pasrsagc from Auckland, Maxwell was manae led at night, and the two detectives kept six-hour watches over Lim elay and night. lie maintained eifect eae during the entire trip of twenty-one days, never giving the eletcctives the slightest trouble. Two carriages were in waiting at the steamers landing, and tiie detectives and Maxwell were driven to the city jail, where lie w ill remain until his departure to-morrow afternoon. When questioned in prison he said his name was U'Augier, and that lie was a Frenchman, a native of Paris, aged thirtyfour. He acknowledged having known Preller, butbeyoiiel this refused to say more, repeating what lie had previously said, that his attorneys in New Zealand cautioned him clout saying anything of the crime of which he was charged, l'olice Surgeon Clark, who came up at that moment, askeel if he spoke French. He re-lie-el he spoke a patois of Norman French. )T. Clark said he was familiar with that patois, whereujHin Maxwell suddenly cheeked himself and refused further to continue the conversation. Captain Lees, Chief eif the city eletcctives and who mainly worked up tiie evidence against Maxwell, says the prisoner is a Scotchman with an assumeil accent. The detective, at a suggestion from Captain Lees, provided Maxwell with clean clothing, preparatory to having 'him photographed. When he Lad finished his toilet, he looked more like the description publisheel than he elid when he came over the ship's side. The entrance to the city prison is surrounded by a crowd eager to get a glimpse of the noted prisoner. MURDERED IN BED. A Horrible aud Unprovoked Murder ia Scott County Fnll Details. special to the Sentinel. Seorrmr.G, Ind., August 3. Considerable excitement was createei In our town this morning at the report of the murder of John Cole Uroady, a resielent of Finley Township. About 3 o'clock this morning son of Mr. Tiroady, who wa3 sleeping up stairs, heard the report of a pistol. Calling his father, and hearing no reply, lie hastened down stairs. He saw a man pass from the room backward as he entereel. ' He found his father - upon" the bctl with a bullet hole through his heael. His wife sleeping by his tide was not awakeneel by the report. It is thought chloroform had been used. It is thought robbery was the cause, but no clew to the parties lias been develoied up to this writing. About twenty iersons from town went to the residence. The Sheriff, with a number of assistants, will use every effort to secure the guilty party. About noon Tuesday three bolts were stolen from Mr. LVs mowing machine. Upon discovering this he sent his son to town for new bolts. As the young man was returning home, about 10 o'clock at night, a man stepped from behind a tree and halted him. Young Flroady shot at the man, but without effect. He Lasteneel home as rapidly as he could, and thought but little more of it. Some believe that it was an effort to get Mr. TJ. away from home and rob Lim. All kinds of theories are advanced, but it is all conjecture. Mr. B. was a member of the Masonic fraternity, and held in higl esteem by his neighbors. He is administrator of the Boone Kose estate, and is thought to have some money by him. The assassin secured none. Farties have returned, but 110 material change is made in the report. Considerable excitement prevails, but no clew to the assassin. He is described by the young man who saw him as a small man, dressed in black. SHOCKING TRAGEDY. An Insane Doctor Ka tally Cuts si Lifetime Frientl anel Kills Himself. Attica, Ind., August 0. A shocking tragedy was enacted atMarshficld, Warren County, yesterday. Since last April Dr. Orin Aborn, of Marshficld. has been insane. Last week preparations were made to convey him to the State Asylum, and he was to have been taken there yesterday. The Doctor heard of the arrangements, and went to Williamsport to stop the proceedings. He was taken in charge by Dr. C. IL Boyer, a lifetime friend, who conveyed hi n back home, and to satisfy the family agreed to stay with them all night. At midnight Dr. Aborn got out his case of surgical instruments ostensibly to show them, nut when they wer oj-eneel he seized one of the sharp two-edged knives anel started for his wife's room. -Suspecting his intentions, she Heel from the house when he first got out the instruments While he was out hunting for her A. IL Cronkhito, who was present, went out for assistance, and when Alorn returned to the room only Dr. Boyer remaineel in the house. Walking up to Boyer, the madman drew the knife across his friend's throat. Boycr then grappled with him. and a death struggle ensued. The knife again dew-ended with vicious force, striking across the breast and in the, back, over the shoulder and under the arm. Boyer is a elclicate man, but the knowledge that "it was a fight for life gave him superhuman strength, and he

f.r.ally got hold of the knife with both hands In the struggle for it pose-vsioi Aborn tureel it about, and the sharp edges gouged Hover's hands until they were nearly cut in two. compelling him to let go. Aborn then stopf-! for'rvst and JJoytr made his escape. His garments were sejakeel with biood. Aborn held ivosscssion of the house for some time, though the street was fnll of men. He finally walkeel out into the yard, plunged a knife through Iiis own throat and drank a onantity of iodyne. He liveel several hours Beyer was taken to Williamsiport in a dying condition. A gentleman who arrived from tlnst city said to a reporter for the louisvilie Commercial that the murder may be attributed to one near the Hroady homestead, and that when the full particulars of the trageelv were known, the general astonishment of the people will turn to wrath, which will end the earthly career of a man who shoulel Lave been the defender of the dead man rather than his murderer.
