New York, June 5.—Henry Ward
Heocher received calls to-da.v. The visitors
were ninny, and they came to see whether
he was dead or alive. A rumor had nivend
that apoplexy had suddenly killed him
with a sin.-rlc Hcroke. The source of the
false news is midis'ovorable, but it doubt •
icss lies in the fact that the pastor of
.Plymouth has been coin pulled to begin a
long vacation at once instead of warning
tinning from the crushed but “sweet land of
France.Genuine soldiers, sailors, blouse and
hood, brazen wni r»ors, veteran abreast veteran,
cadet, brothers ill black, hoys «,f every hue,
hands, fife vorps, drums, drum.-., d urns those
passing at good pace for one hour and a half,
formed the procession here. Riverside Dark was

of the vast crowd. Grant's tomb vv:is a mountain
of flowers. Each member of oar *.om puny car .ed

of the procession and day caugld my eye. When
Miss FoJbom with Mrs. V-ias wah ed out on the
balconv of t'ne II >fi nan house, the shout
that went up from the crowd caused the ' (tie
cheer sent uj) For (he president to seem hu an
echo. A small hoy 12 years old -a drum-major
passed the reviewing stand in Madison squ ire,
nnd just opposite (he president and pa ,y up
lie seal bid wand high in air; down it came into
Ids magic hand, then with tw.rl and twist he
passed it tejouml his neck ami eveiytimehe

of BnfTaluchipped and said: “good! good!" In

Luxurious trees, most perfect azali;
fountains, woodland slopes soft as s
crowd the eye a‘ every hand until death itself
seems lost in These emblems of immortality.
Huge vaults above the ground bearing the names
of early, honored families, remind one of Fiench
cemeteries and those in New Orleans. Steinway,
Ha.eimye", Morgan, Vanderbilt, Sell e liner born
find scores of other well-known names meet the
laughingly ciplainod, to shock
them with disappointment. Mrs. Beecher
o'tjn followed Inin into the hull to see and
enjoy tho pteanure <>C tne friends as they
viewed him alive and roseate. They were
invited in. On his library desk a bottle of
port wine was kept unstopporud most of
tne time, buo-U.se many of the visitors ac
cepted his sugResdons tiiat they drink lo.ig
life to him. ile drank none himself, how-
eve'', though hu leooived the toasts in
smiling attention. “Port is not my tipple,”
lie sain. “1 occasionally take a mass of
Rhine wine or claret, but port has too
much body in it. it would strengthen me.
That isn’t what i need. The fact is, I have
too much health, too abundant blood, too
much reln’sticusiiess. That is the trouble
with me.”
Beecher’s sons were among the earliest
irqn'-er.i, for the ruino- of tneir father’s
dcat.1 iiad reached them promptly.
Deacon llowuid, his most intimate
chn 'eh . 'end, hugged him impu'sively,
n..d exclaimed : “I knew well enough
you were not dead, for I’m sure I’d have
chopped dead at the same time.”
Dc.i nu 8. V. White, the Wall street
speculator, took a cab and drove so fust
teat a police stopped the vehicle for
mov.t'g .'s.ter than t.iucity ordinance per
mits.
“W' ite, old fellow,” exclaimed Beecher,
on being congratu'ated by him on being
alive, 1 Pm only partially so, you know, for
1 ve ueen poiitica.lv dead since last fall.”
TI N wns a jocose allusion to u rathersharp

i* Women were plenty in this infoimal re
ception, and one of tnem imprinted a kiss
on Ills le . cheek, low down among the
comes, bat she was a staid matron of
Idly, and a c-ony of Mrs. Beecher.

an apopletie stroke before long. That
has been his convit tion for a year, and lit*

years ago he came south to decorate the

Emmet* and Chambers. who are now j
the visiting physicians to this hnspiM. \
The ladies erecteil this liospiia 1 and now reign
over it. just as tlie orphan asylum is admirably i
managed in Columbus* Waiting in the reception
room of the woman’s hospital a few days ago, 1 j
began a < onversntion with the superintendent. '
who had just finished a tour of the long wards
wdh the Disputing commhtee. He remarked
t hat the chairman of the committee said this on
leaving: “Mr. Blank, what am 1 to do on our
next numbly meeting. Ido not see one thing
w.-ong?” Fact.
AMONG OTHKR HOS1M r.\» s.
The Presbyterian hospital is new, a : ry and
well arranged. St. V ucent’s is under the
auspices of the sisters, and that is argument .-of-
tieiert for the gentle nursing and best arrange
ments.
St Luke's is on Fifth avenue, roomy, and stir
rounded by trees. Every wood is tilled with
Bible inscriptions, appropriate and encouraging
The patients here have every liberty
Mirate with their well being. One motto i:i the
operat mg theatre I can not forget: “Inability and
quietness is our strength.” Tlie Episcopalian
ladies suppo.t and manage St. Luke’s. At the
exits of the elevated stations is an iron box about
three feet high and on it, “Put your papers in
here for the hospitals.” They are always full.
Many persons go to the New York hospital and
take a private pay room who are living in the
finest homes. Elegant equipages roll up every
hour with folks to see sick friends. If
one walks on Broadway and Fifth avenue
or goes to a ball ground where 20,632 surging
souls are, it seems that everybody here is alive,
buoyant and bent on going almost in a run. Go
now to tlie dozens of hospitals and all seems sick
ness, pain, passing away. Chambers street hos-
Vital is where most of the acCdents are carried
Jr„m down-town. This, too, is presided over by
Dr. Bull. If Jayinau should inspect this I opine
be would never again mount a scaffold, cross »

1 Howard tvpivsented that tho venerable
vli-rgyiMn uniild have to stop work at
! once or break down at it. His natumlly
strong constitution was evidently giving
way to aide's infirmities, and nromonitions
j of apoplexy were manifest, i he deacons
voted unanimously that a vacation ought
t i Bogin at once and last until October.
'I'iie trustees, in whom the power really
rests, have now agreed to that proposition,
] ami last evening the matter wn * laid be
fore the congregation for ap
proval. Mr. Beecher has decided co go to
Europe on June 17, nceo.npnnied by his
.wife. He hopes that Gladstone will ap
peal to the voters of England in an elec-
| (ion for indorsement of his home ude for
1 Ireland policy, : n which ease he w»M take
I the stump for him. His advisers abjure
! 1***ii to do no speaking abroad, but to rest
entirely, but he says that political orato.y
in England would Vie recreation, and he

destroyed the stands, and remained so long
it wr.s too late to replant. Corn is looking
finely, and will soon be laid by. Cotton is
looking up and good stands are shown
