The funeral of the lute Henry Meiggs, in Lima, was of the most Im posing character. His death is uni versally regretted through all the South American States, andsulmcrl|>- tions are on foot to raise a monument over his remains. Rowell’s reports of the changes in American Journalism during the month which lias just closed are in structive and significant. Of twenty- five new papers set afloat and profess ing party politics only seven were Republican; while of the fifteen par ty papers which passed out of exis tence but three were Democratic. The press is a pretty g<sal barometer. At Richmond, Va., on Tuesday, President Hayes introduced Rev. Dr. J. L, M. Curry to his fellow-citizens ns follows: ‘‘I introduce an old school acquaintance that I know so much better thun you do that i claim the right to introduce him as a young man. Hois an exceedingly clever fellow, but 1 never dreamed he would boa doctor of divinity. [Rours of laughter.J I introduce l)r.

The Mouth and West show for resumption 65, against it 120; the East 50 for and 18 against. The prevailing policy of the West and Month is clearly defined for repeal and of Hie East for forced resumption. The figures of the vote indicate the Republican party every wliere is for resumption. This will hurt them badly in the elections. England is again involved in war with one of the savage tribes tlmt render her African possessions so troublesome at times. The hostilities now reported from Cape Town are between the merciless Galakus and the British and their native allies. Two buttles have occurred. In the first, on the 24th of September, 8,<KXl Galukus attacked the itritisli, but were repulsed with a loss of 200, the British losing only one man killed und six wounded. Their loss on the 29th, when the second battle took place, is not reported, but as rein forcements have been sent forward front Simon’s Ray, it Is likely the situation is serious. — 1 — ♦- -♦ Old Field Marsh al Von Wran- OEL, whose dentil at the ripe age of 93 wus recorded last week, was one of those great men whom we occasion ally meet with in military and In civil life who achieve greatness simp ly by holding on. Ho was already a colonel when he fought at Waterloo under Ulucher, and as years passed and ills elders and contemporaries dropped off he rose in rank and in command, until, when he lmd been sixty yearn in the service, Ids tenacity was considered so remarkable tlmt, iii recognition of it, he was made a Field Marshal. After that he distinguished himself by his very savage campaign against Denmark, which reflected no particular credit upon him or his roy al master, but which won for him a coronet. But ho distinguished liim- »elf still further by holding cm some years more, his utleetionnte sovereign giving him a fresh decoration now and then, until last summer, on the eightieth anniversary of Ids entry into the service, there was nothing left for the emperor to do but to give him a sword and write Dim a gushing letter. But even such a life must come to an end some time, and now the grim old solder 1ms igonc to Ids long rest. ■IBIXT van iur 1‘kknidkmt. Congressman Finley, of Florida, lias introduced a joint resolution in the House proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States that the President and Vic President shall be elected by a direct vote of the jieople of the several Slab that electors in each State shall ha the same qualifications as electors of the most numerous branch of the State Legislature, and that if two or more persons shall each reeelv equal and the greatest number of votes for President, then the House of Rep resentatives shall from such persons immediately choose the President. The resolution further projmses that the election shall be held at the time now provided l»y law for choosing the Presidential electors; that the returns be canvassed at the time and in the manner now provided, and that the two houses of Congress shall he the judges, each house voting separately; and in east'of a disagreement of the two houses, then t lie matter shall go U the Supreme Court for final decis ion. HON. HENRY W. HILLIARD. His confirmation as Minister to Brazil, n special to the Savannah Xeirs says, will he reported against by the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, uud tlmt this information lias been definitely ascertained. The Republican Senators have agreed to stand by each other to defeat all con firmations that are In any sense against party Interest; but the Ad ministration has assurances from a sufficient number of Senutors to feel no apprehension us to results. The tblrty-tbree Democratic Senators,and Senators Davis, Matthews and Chrls- tianey may safely lie counted on, nnd they are sufficient. Several others may join the party that can forget the war Is over, and is laboring for the restoration of unity nnd harmony. When the Democratic Senator from Indiana has taken bis seat, as the successor of Morton, there will be thirty-four Democrats to sustain any proper nomination. Mr. Hilliard is now at his |xist In Brazil and Ills family in Europe. True, he was a secessionistand worked for its success. That was long ago. It luiH not debarred him from I icing an American citizen,nor of represent ing ttie country abroad witli honor. His State, Georgia, Is the political equal to any in the Union. Mr. Hil liard, in Ids race for Congress last year, did more for the perpetuation of the Republican party thun any one inun in Georgia. He claimed to be an Independent Democrat and op posed ttie nominee of the party of which he professed to be a member. He attempted to divide Democrats, and rallied to bis support all the mal contents and Republicans. But for this the Republican party in this dis trict would have been as dead many months ago ns it is now, nnd heyoml the possibility of u recovery. There' was no chance for a Republican, but us an Independent there was a forlorn hope that Democrats might di vide, and the Independents, with the aid of Radicals, go in. Thus, the Re publicans were held together longer than they would have been had not such tactics been adopted. Wo opposed bis election with ull our power, and were gratified to know that Congressman Harris led him by some eight thousand votes and we had contributed largely to that result. In the contest lie was deemed n quasi Republican. With the fuctlomd party of the North that ought to be sufficient, but the carpet-bag Senators, accidentals of war, are tile ones who are causing the opposition to his con firmation. Mr. Hilliard was a resident of Co lumbus, highly esteemed socially, and regarded as a gentleman of ability, nnd when lie was announced ns Minister of Brazil, those who hud voted against Dim were glad at his good fortune, and tendered congratulations, All were aware that a consistent Democrat could not lie appointed, and they con sidered Mr. Hilliard ns one who would ably and honorably sustain the dig nity und Interests of the American people at a foreign court. We hope he will be confirmed, and that our Sena tors and Representatives \tilj labor Jo effect that consummation. We be lieve it will be carried without much trouble. FRENCH SITUATION AND PARTIES. All the indications point to the fact tlmt MucMuhon must uppoint a ministry in accord with the Repub licans, lie must resign or resort to the bayonet. The Republicans will uot compromise on a cabinot constructed from the Right with i'ouyer Quertier as Premier or any one else. The Bight Is 11ms subdivided: Extreme Rigid, favoring the return of Comte de Cliumbord as Henry V., with no concessions to the liberal theory of monarchical governments; the Moderate Rigid (Pouyer Quertier belongs to these), favoring the legitimist pretensions of Comte de Clmmbord, with count itutionat guarantees; the Right Center, com posed of the partisans of the Orleans family, who favor a eonstiutlonal monarchy, ami, if they can not get that, a very moderate republic. The Left Centre of the Republican side is the only Republican group which would favor any compromise with tlie Right, as the members are Mod- rate Republicans. The Left and Extreme Left—the progressive Re publicans and the Communal Re publicans—will make no compromise. It is thus seen wlmt sharp antagon isms are now agitating the French Republic, and how MucMuhon walks a pathway paved with dynamite. Vlallr Iforgaa at HlekaaradL At Richmond. Mr. Hayes, in intro ducing Senator Morgan, of Alabama, said : “It is hardly fair thatonly the departments of the Government should be represented here, and as there is present u member of Con gress, I will present him to you— Senator from Alabama, General Mor- gun.” General Morgan said that no Ala bamian ever fulled to find a welcome to the hearthstones of Virginia as cor dial as to their own homes. He sjxike feelingly of the sons of his native State who lay beneath Virginia soil and the tender and mournful memo ries associated With the neighboring hills wliere their bones are buried. His meetings with the President hud been a great pleasure which hud fallen to him by accident. He said the speakers who had preceded him, some of whom were sons of Virginia, had comehitlierwlth tlie olive branch of peace and earnest wishes for the prosperity nnd happiness of Virginia and the South. The methods of gov ernment pursued by them would con tribute to tills end, und for our own share in the benefits conferred upon tlie whole country, they were entitled to our lasting gratitude and they need have no apprehension of our purposes In the future. it was a happy day when tlie Presi dent of the U nlted States came among us, inspired by a feeling of interest in our agricultural and commercial insti tutions without earing for ourpoiitics. Sucli un event must have important results. Tlie speaker, in conclusion, addressed himself to the President, urging him to move on boldly and perseveringly in tlie course lie liud adopted. Hen. Forrest aw a Christian. In his sermon, at General Forrest’s funeral, Rev. Dr. Htainback, of Mem phis, said: "On tlie 14t,li of November, 1875, on a calm Sabbath evening Bedford For rest und bis now stricken wife en tered tills church and took their seats. I preached from the parable found in tlie great sermon on the mount,wliere the builders'on the rock of faith and tlie builder on the sundsof false hopes are contrasted. At tlie close of tlie discourse I (Hissed out and found Gen. Forrest waiting at tlie door. Ho took my ami and we iiussed the pavement below. There lie stopped abruptly, and trembling lie leaned against the wall, and, as tears fell from his eyes, said : ‘Sir, your sermon lias moved tlie last prop from under me. I am the fool that built on sand—I am a poor miserable sinner.' Tlie form which never trembled before tlie stoutest man seemed all shaken. ‘My dear General,’ I said, ‘I thank Go'll for this. If you feel that you are the foolish Imildcr, you are in tlie best way to get upon tlie rock.’ I told Dim how ‘God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son that whosoever belleveth on Him should not perish but have everlast ing lift.'.’ Then l gave him the 51st Psalm to read. I called at his room the next night and talked With him and prayed with liim. At tlie close of tlie prayer he arose nnd said : ‘I’m satisfied. All is right. I put my trust in my Redeemer.’ Since that time, my friends, I know he has said many things not like a Christian, and done many things which he should not have done. But no man over felt this more keenly than lie did. When I saw him on Thursday lie confessed tiow far lie lmd done wrong and brought reproach upon tlie cause of Christ. ‘But,’ said he, ‘(tod hns forgiven me.’ Raising his emaciated hand, he pointed to ids breast and Haid, ‘All is peace here. I want you to know that between me and my God there is no cloud. I am at peace witli God.’ I bowed my head U|k>ii that hand and wept for Joy. Said I: ‘General Forrest, I thank my God for tills.’ Then lie gave me this message: 'Tellmy breth ren and sisters that during six weeks I have lain in my bed and communed with my God. Tell them to take up their cross and follow their Saviour. Tell my old comrades in sin to give their hearts to God and seek a higher, holier life.’ ” water, from which It slopes down to the Fife side with a gradient oflin 358, and toward the Dundee side, wliere it takes a curve to tlie eastward in order the more conveniently to join the land line, with a gradient of 1 in 73. To provide for expansion by heat, which will amount to something like seven feet in the whole length of the bridge, tlie girders have been adjusted to tlie piers to allow a certain amount of free play. Tlie bridge lias been calculated' for a rolling load of 11J tons to the foot run. Such a burden is more than could be brought upon any spun by filling its whole length with loaded freight ears, no part of the bridge would have to undergo a strain of more than four tons to the square inch, and when it is borne in mind that the iron is actually capable of sustaining a strain of 21 tons to the square inch, it will be seen that there Is an nmjile margin of surplus strength. A 1.AXIP IPOXAXEA. Al«> a Hood Opening for Young Law- jrem— Nlr*. Millar's Thirty J 9f llllon Mult. Special Dispatch to Journal of Commerce.] Philadelphia, November 3.—A series of law suits have been com menced in tlie courts here for tlie re covery of a large amount of patent lands in Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, and thiH £ity. The plain tiff, a Mrs. Millar, is a daughter of Ferdinand M. Young, who is a son of John Young, tlie original owner of the lands. The value of tlie entire property claimed is said to be about 130,000,000. According to the state ments made, it was purchased by John Young, between the years 1784 and 1800 at prices varying from one half cent to five cents per acre. The lands in this city are located near Wash ington Square and are very valuable. In Virginia there are some 114,000 acres claimed, which are located in Fayette, Harrison, Montgomery, Mo- nongahiilaand other counties. A meet ing of tlie heirs and the representa tives was held, to take measures to contest tlie right of parties now occu lt! tlie same, and jibing lands to lioli Hon. 1). W. Voormees United States Senator.—Yesterday Gov ernor Williams appointed Hon. D. W. Voorhees United States Senator from Indiana to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Senator Morton. He is one of tlie most eloquent of tlui Democratic orators of tlie West, and is known by the sobriquet of the “Tall Sycamore of the Wabash.” H was horn in Fountain county, in In diana, September 28, 1S2H, and lieuc is 49 years of ago. He graduated in Ashbury University, Indiana. He began to practice law in 1851, ^vas United States District Attorney for Indiana from 1858 to 1881, nnd mem ber of Congress from 1881 to 1885 and 1889 to 1871. Morsissey Elected.—John Mo- rissey was elected State Senator from tlie Seventh District in New York city, one of the wealthiest in the State. He defeated Augustus Schell, one of tlie most prominent men in tin* city and Democratic party. It was Tammany vs. Anti-Tammany. Morrissey representing the latter. John Kelley lfvcs in that district. Though a Democrat as good as they make them, the Republicans voted for Morrissey so as to defeat Tam many and its chief, John Kellev. . rs. Millar, the daughter of tlie only direct living heir, F. M. Young, and of whom the right and title to 119,000 acres had been transferred, was chosen to enter the contest. Tlie “Bone nnd Nlnew” Of our country have often—especially about election time—been made the subject of laudation; but when those use Ail parts of the human structure become too visible in sequence of lennnoss, they can scarcely be called graceful.

Thus are the hollow places fill ed up and the angles rounded oft'. Through the instrumentality ot this peerless aid to digest ion and promoter of physical well be ing, the body rapidly gains in vigor, color returns to the hollow chee k, the appetite improves, nervous symptoms vanish, and a healthful impetus is given to every function.

The New York Journal of Com merce, in announcing the iluuth of Mr. James Brown, banker, states that during tlie crisis of 1887 the firm of Brown Bros. & Co., held American hills for a very targe amount, Includ ing nearly £800,000 of protestested paper, nmflind at the same time to meet engagements in England amounting to nearly $10, (KM),000. There own resources were to a con siderable extent looked up in Ameri- nn securities, not immediately avail able, and during the panic prevailing on both sides of tlie Atlantio it was impossible to draw bills or to remit specie to England. But as the sus- lension of tlie firm evon for a limited ime would have greatly aggravated ttie commercial cmhnrnissment of the period, the English house succeeded n affecting a loan from the Bank of England for tlie whole amount of its ligagements in that country, depos iting securities for the advance to tlie amount of $25,000,000. The whole sum borrowed from the bank was re paid in six months, und the firm en joyed thenceforth an unsurpassed reputation for business integrity both in Europe and America. TUB I.OTOKKI 1IBPIKJJE, A Rnllrond Klratlar. Almost Two MUM In Lfngth. The longest railroad bridge in tlie world tins just been opened for the pub lic travel near Dundee, Scotland. The structure spans tlie estuary of the Tay at almost two miles in width. It has been constructed for tlie purpose of aflbrding facilities for the more convenient conduct of the traffic of the North British Railway company. Hitherto tlie compa ny have had to carry their traffic across the Tay by means of a ferry, and tliis method was not only •expen sive, but exceedingly slow. ' Accord ingly, 'their engineer, Mr. Bouch, prepared the plans of a bridge which has now been completed. Parlia mentary sanction was obtained in 1870, the bridge being constructed as a sc | is rate undertaking, with a capital of $1,750,000. The contract for tlie work was ol>- tnined in May, 1871, and the founda tion stone was Udd in the land abut ment on the south side on the 22d of Jutv of the same year. The brigde begins about a mile anil a half above Newport, on tlie south side of the river, where tlie depth of tlie water at high spring tides is 45 feet, the veloc ity of ttie current reaching occasion ally five knots an hour. To bridge this formidable stretch of water, the engineer planned a bridge of 82 spans, varying in length from 87 to 245 feet, those of the largest size, to the num ber of 18, being placed over tlie navi gable part of the river.
