THE ST. JAMES CENOTAPH.
A Handsome Iron Railing Placed
Around the Monument.
Messrs. Pendleton and Boardman
yesterday afternoon completed the
work of enclosing with a handsome
iron railing the marble cenotaph on
Green street, in front of St. James’
Methodist Church, erected in honor of
the “ Boys in Gray,” who went from the
ranks of the St. James’%Suuday School
to the ranks of war and never came
home. The railing is twenty feet square,
in too sections or panels of tec feet each
on the four sides, and is four and a
half feet in height, and I’ests upon sub
stantial granite coping that protects a
brick foundation a foot and a half high.
The design of the railing is chaste,four
urns surmounting the four corners of
the enclosure, and the material is
wiought and cast iron. It is neatly
painted black.
From the gate, which is on the west
side of the enclosure and permits en
trance and near approach to the shaft,
a granite walk is laid ; and the area
about the monument and within the
railing is to be turfed.
Thi# neat iron enclosure is itself a
worthy ac|junct to this, sacred ceno
taph, and When the full design of the
improvement is perfected the monu
ment will be enhanced in its beauty and
artistic completeness.
SCENE IN A YOUNG LAWYER’S
OFFICE.
One Dollar and a Half to Get In—Fifty
Dollars to Get Out.
A young disciple of Blackstone was
sitting in hif office a day or so ago,
tr|iog to teoHe the pj*)blem vfhy his
talents wire hot appreciated, and why
elients preferred the old foggy
next door to his own brilliant
genius, when a step was heard ap
proaching. Soon the legal aspirant
spread voluminous papers in front of
him, and assuming a business-like ap
pearance awaited the arrival. Quickly
one j)f Afric’s greasy offsprings ap
narld at the threshold of his sanctum
sm d isked with a bland smile if he
was a lawyer.
Surprised at the ignorance of his
would-be client, he replied that he was
at his service, to perform whatever
might be required. Then Cuffy nar
rated the cause of his woe—namely,
that three years ago he “got married,”
and, being a strict member of the
church, his duties compelled him to pay
awodeasional visit to his church “sis
teren,” which conduct had caused his
wife to becomo so obstreporous as so
much to disturb the domestic harmo
ny of his family as to cause a dissolu
tion of the Gordian knot of marriage a
necessity, and he desired to know the
professional charges for the job. As
saulting his forehead with his hand,
the young attorney replied, “Only fifty
dollars.” Up rose the client, back flew
his eyes and erect stood his hair, as ho
gasped : “Fifty dollars ! Why, it only
cost a dollar and a half to git married,
and you charge me fifty dollars to git
unmarried. Oh! no, sir, I shant show
my wife she bothers me fifty dollars
worth—l’ll sooner stand her a cen
tury ! ” And off strided the determined
darkey.
PLAYING WITH A GUN.
Half of a Little Boy’s Head Blown Oft'.
Tidings of a terrible accident that
had oocurred at Rice Spring on the
Ray plantation, some five miles west of
tiie city, yesterday morning, called Cor
oner Kunae to. the scene of the mishap.
Investigation showed that two little
negro boys, one nine years old, named
Edmond Nagle, and the other seven
years old, named John Davis, had car
ried some water to the father of the
former, William Nagle, where he was
working in a field. With nothing more
to do just then, the boys sat down in a
corner of the fence, and while thus
waiting wero betrayed into playing
with a shot gun that rested against a
rail. Eddie Nagle took this gun of his
father and began projecting with the
lock. He raised the hammer and it
slipped from his unpractised thumb.
Ipe jpieeo was discharged, tlio load of
snot entering his companions mouth
and tearing away the jaw and half his
head. Death resulted to the injured
boy instantly.
Coroner Kunze was satisfied from the
facts of the nature of the accident,
which was witnessed by several parties,
ahd declined to hold an inquest.
Grand Complimentary Concert.
At Girardey’s Opera House, Tuesday
evening, a grand complimentary con
ceit for the benefit of the Organ Fund
of the First Baptist Chnrch was given
by the best amateur talent of Augusta,
under the direction of Prof. Joun Wei
gand, assisted by the Columbia Post
Band.
The tone and merit of the entertain
ment may be conceived from the sub
joined programme, selected for the oc
casion :

Its rendition was appreciatively waited
upon by one of Augusta’s most brilliant
and cultured audiences, who applaud
ed its progress to the echo. Iu atten
dance, in music, in vocalization and in
results, the concert was deservedly pro
nounced unexcelled £or a long time.
An Augusta Man Robbed.
Two parties from Augusta, one a
German barber, arrived here on Mon
day morning, says the Savannah News
of yesterday, en route to New York by
steamer. The companion of the barber
hunted up a' lodging house for the
night, and at a respectable hour the
pair sought their downy couch, and
were soon in dreamland. Yesterday
morning the barber awoke and made
the startling discovery that his bed
fellow, believing that the early bird
catches the worm, had arisen, helped
himseif to his sleeping friend’s pocket
book, containing thirty dollars in green
backs, and very quiety levanted. This
discovery rather disturbed the equa
nimity of the German barber, and he
hastened to a magistrate to engage the
services of a detective. As he can
scarcely speak English and could give
no information in regard to the fugitive,
no assistance could be rendered him,
and he departed, vowing vengeance
against his thieving compagnon du
voyage. We did not learn the names of
either party.
Commercial Bank—Board of Directors
Elected.
At the election held yesterday be
tween the hours of 10 a. m. and 2 p. m.,
by the Stockholders of the Commercial

PRESBYTERIANS IN COUNCIL.
Reports; Overtures and Institutes—
Dr. Irvine’s Remarks on Publica
tion—The Louisville Muddle.
[From Our Regular Correspondent.]
St. Louis, Evening of 28th May.
Dr, Robinson resumed bis argument,
and proceeded to reply at length to the
plaintiff.
At 10 a. m., Dr. Robinson is still on
the floor. Meeting adjourned till to
morrow morning.
Friday Morning.
The Assembly met a.t 9—minutes of
yesterday were read and adopted.
The Committee of Bills and Over
tures reported an overture on Mission
ary Labor in Texas. Adopted.
Overture No. 21, on founding an in
stitute for the education of the colored
people, viz: that a committee be ap
pointed by this Assembly to collect in
formation, and devise measures and
report at next Assembly.
Reports.
The report of Mr. Frierson, Dr. Ir
vine and others, on the narrative, was
road. A copy of this important re
port has been forwarded to us from
the Assembly and given below. The
report with a few verbal alterations
was unanimously adopted.
The report of the Committee on Ed
ucation was taken%p, and after consid
erable discussion, was adopted.
The report of the Committoe on
Theological Seminaries was reintro
duced, and taken up section by sec
tion.
The following are among the most
important items of the report:
1. That another prof essoin should be
elected.
2. The Chair of Systematic Theolo
gy shall be divided between him and
the venerable Dr. Plumer.
3. That Dr. Plumer shall, by his own
request take the Chair of Polemics,
Casuistic and Pastoral Theology.
4. That this Assembly shall elect said
Professor.
Evening Session.
The report of the Committee on
Publication was again taken up. Dr.
Boggs moved the sale of the property
at Richmond, Va. To which Dr. Irvine
replied: “ The question, as he
understood it, is, Shall this As
sembly adopt the report of the
committee, or shall that report be
amended by a recommendation to the
Assembly to sell tho Publishing House
at Richmond within two years ? Mod
erator, I assisted in constructing this
report, and stand here to plead for its
adoption simpliciter. I do so on two
grounds. 1. It will not be for the
honor of this Assembly to sell that
property, and break up that establish
ment. Tho experiment has not yet
had a fair trial. It is only two years
old. What confidence, then, can the
church haveand whatconfidence can the
world have in the Assembly, if such a
sudden change should be adopted ?
If you enter this year upon a great
measure, and abandon it next year, you
may as well apply, this fickle policy to
any other great scheme of our Church.
Suppose you adopt such a policy with
regard to our Seminary in Virginia, or
our Seminary in Columbia? You will
have these Institutions one year in
Memphis, another in Mobile, another
in New Orleans, another Texas, and
another, we shall not say where.
As the rolling atone gathers no moss,
so, by changing your localities, the
church will soon not know where to
find them. I cannot conceive of any
course of policy so much calculated to
destroy all confidence in the deliberate
action of this Assembly as that which
this amendment recommends.
But, secondly, I contend that it will
not be for the interest or pecuniary
profit of the church to adopt this reso
lution, and thus to alter and not amend
the report.
It has been argued that the property
ought to be sold to pay the debt now
; encumbering it, and thus our great and
excellent scheme of publication, if not
destroyed, would be fearfully crippled.
Sir, I contend that this would be a
most dangerous, if not a ruinous policy.
Already our liberal Christian people
have contributed $14,000 to aid in pay
ing for that property. True, it is en
cumbered by a debt of $31,000, but the
offices already rented—and there are
soveral others yet to rent—yield such
an annual rental as pays the interest at
8 1-2 per cent., and leaves a surplus,
and when all the offices shall have been
finished, there will be a surplus beyond
the interest, to be cast into the general
treasury. This is, therefore, even as a
commercial speculation, a very great
bargain, such a bargain as any busi
ness man would gladly make to-morrow.
I am informed that tho property
which cost the Assembly $43,000 is
worth $60,000, and now it is proposed
to sell it for $31,000, that is, a little
.over half its value, and that because
members of this House are opposed to
the Assembly holding real estate. Sir,
I do most respectfully submit that that
would be a most unprofitable policy.
But what will become of the $14,000
already paid by our people on the
original purchase? Will you rob them?
Will you rob God ? This is a sacred
trust given you by God’s people, and
you are bound to apply it to the pur
pose, and to the only purpose for
which it was intrusted to you.” The
motion was them tabled.
The Louisville Muddle
was again introduced and each mem
ber was requested to offer his opinion
on the report of the Judicial Commit
tee —before coming to a vote. This
process continued till 10:30, p. m., when
the court adjourned till
Saturday Morning
when the tedious work was resumed
and prolonged till the roll was exhaust
ed, and which occupied the balance of
the evening, the whole of Saturday
morning and till a late hour on Saturday
evening. The committee on
Devotional Exercises
reported services for Sunday, but some
of the appointees backed out, others
begged and got leave of absence. The
Assembly will run into next week.

[New Yorrnliat.i.] •*
Holyoke, Mass., May 29,1875.—There
is but little to add to the mournful
story of the Holyoke church disas
aster. Many who were supposed to bo
only slightly burned will die from their
injuries, and a great many who survive
will be maimed and disfigured for life.
The funeral obsequies took place to
day in the basement of the half finish
ed church which was soon to supply
the place of the flimsy wooden struc
ture destroyed. The walls of this
church have been built to a height of
of only twenty feet, and no floor has
been laid, but rough timbers were
placed across the top of the walls to
serve as a roof over tho enclosure.
The window frames of the east side
had been charred by the burning of the
old church, close to which it stood;
but, with this exception, no damage
was done to the new building, and it
was fitting that the spot made sacred,
as it were, by the terrible affliction
should be the one where the last acts
of the tragedy should take place. At
tho rear end of the building’s interior a
rude altar was constructed of planks,
which were covered with strips of
white and black cambric, and festoons
of the same were carried around on
each side and fastened to a hastily
erected frame-work. In the centre of
the church was placed a dais three feet
high, upon which Ihe coffins were ar
ranged in five rows. At each end of
the structure were placed twelve sperm
candles. At 9 o’clock tho work of
bringing in the dead began. Most of
the coffins were very plain, and some
of them had wreaths of flowers laid
upon them.
Forty-Eight Coffins.
The remainder of the bodies were
then brought in, till forty-eight in all
were there. Tho candles at either end
were then lighted. Long before tho
ceremony was to begin an immense
concourse of people of all nationalities
had overflowed the building and swell
ed into the streets and over the sand
lmuks surrounding, The Irish Catho
lics were there in force, and very many
Americans of the city and vicinity.—
Mayor Pearsons was also present, with
the various city officials.
The Funeral Services.
The oxercises were opened at ten
o’clock by Father A. B. Dufresne, the
j pastor, who conducted tho “ blessing of
tiie dead,” sprinkling them with holy
water. A select choir at tho right of
the altar then chanted a requiem, and
Father L. G. Gagnier, of this city, con
ducted tho mass. Rev. Father G. B.
Primeau, of Worcester, next pronounc
ed in French the funeral oration or ser
mon, tuldug as his text, “ A voice was
heard in Ramali, lamentation and bit
ter weeping ; Rachel, weeping for her
children, refused to be comforted be
cause they were not.” He said : “ 1
pity this people who have among them
a hecatomb of worshippers. The ex
terminating angel has passed thiough
your midst, and I will avoid depicting
the scene. Holyoke and Chicopee to
day have the saddest decoration day of
any of the towns in any of the
States. In your presence I feel
as the friends of Job felt, who,
coining to comfort him in his distress,
were three days in his presence silent,
nevertheless. Dear suffering friends,
there are consolations for even you.
Fiist—As Christians, you will say,
‘ The Lord gave and the Lord has
taken away.’ Second—Tho place, that
is, the church, and the day, the feast
of Corpus Christi, when all these, your
dear ones, were harvested. So then,
as the Lord gave himself for us, you
gave them to Him. It was duriug the
month of May when they were all
gathered to worship ; therefore we will
offer them as bouquets to the Mater
Dolorosa. Third—The public sympa
thy given by the press and the people,
Bishop anti many other clergy of the
diocese, both French and Irish, the de
votedness of tho Sisters of Charity and
beneficence of the public officers aud
people at large, which it has been ex
tremely pleasing to receive. Fourth—
The honorable behavior of the people,
the heroism of the wounded, forgetting
themselves for others. Fifth—Your
new church is consecrated and made
sacred forever.”
Suspension of Business.
Most of the stores were closed all
day, while many of them were draped
heavily in mourning.
Father Gagniers’ Address.
... After Father Primeau’s oration,
Father Gagnier, of Springfield, spoke
in English some words of cheer and
expressions of thanks for the sympathy
that had been extended them. He said,
“As tho representative of the Cana
dians of the United States, I express
the admiration we feel for, aud it shall
be our best recollection, the sympathy
extended to you at this time. It is
true we all belonged to one grand
family of God, and at such a time as
this we feel it most. I will not give
expression to my feeliugs nor dwell
upon the lessons of the calamity.—
Honor and thanks are due to all who
have labored through this disaster;
thanks to those in authority, who have
proved to be the right men in the
right place; thanks to those who
forgot themselves to save others
in the burning building ; thanks to the
priests of the city who have labored
with tiie pastor ; thanks to the Bisters
of Charity and of the House of Provi
dence ; thanks to all who joined iu
sympathy with the French Canadians
of the community, so terribly smitten ;
thanks to all, and may the blessing of
God come down upon you to all eter
nity.”
Grief of the Mourners.
During the delivery of Father Gag
nier’s address the bitter wailings of the
mourners were most painful to hear.
The people sobbed aloud and many
gave themselves up to tiie wildest grief.
The Absolution to the Dead.
The ceremony of “ Adieux, or abso
lution, to the dead ” was thon conduct
ed by Fathers Duiresne, Primeau and
Gagnier, and consisted of a final sprink
ling of tho coffins with holy water while
the choir chanted prayers for the dead.
Beside the priests of Holyoke there
were present at tho service Fathers C.
Bancher, of Ware; C. C. Revier, of
North Adams, and E. Cendreau, of Bel
lows Falls, Yt. Throughout the im
pressive and solemn service the Holy
oke division of the Ancient Order of
Hibernians and Society of St. Jean Bap
tiste had formed a guard completely
about the platform whereon were
the coffins, and at the conclusion
of the ceremony they formed a long
line on each side from tho church inte
rior to the hearses in the street before
the building. Through these files the
bodies were carried out and transfer
red to the hearses and wagons, to be
taken to the French cemetery at South
Hadley Falls.
The Funeral Procession.
The procession formed in the follow
ing order: The Hibernian Society, D. J.
Kelley, marshal, with two-thirds of the
entire membership of eighty; St. Jeau
Baptiste Society, President John A.
Prew, and sixty-eight members; the bo
dies of the victims in seven hearses,
and twenty-five wagons; mourners in
eleven carriages; Coroner’s jury, eight
een carriages, and two other carriages
with pall bearers, sighty-eight car
riages, making in all 132 vehicles in the
procession, which was over a mile long,
reaching through the city from the cor-
H3r of Maine and Dwight streets, up
through Dwight street to High,
through High to Lyman, through Ly
man to Race, through Race to Canal, to
tiie long bridge, across the river, which
was also the route of march. A special
force of police were detailed at the
bridge to see that the large number of
carriages did not cross too closely and
cause accident. Many followed the
procession on foot. Great credit is due
to those who had charge of the sad af
fair, especially to Mr. J. A. Prew, the
President of the St. Jean Baptiste So
ciety, to whom was given the superin
tendence of the funeral.
The Mavor’s Proclamation.
All the stores in the city were closed
during the funeral services, in accord
ance with the following proclamation
of Mayor Pearsons :
'lo the People of Holyoke :
A calamity almost unprecedented ii tiie
history of t his or any country h s fallen

luchlents of the Fire.
A sad case was that of Joe Richards,
who was in the building with his wife
when the fire was found to be beyond
control. He seized his wife around the
waist and made a desperate struggle
to reach the door. He had almost suc
ceeded when a sheet of fire struck him
in the face, temporarily blinding him.
His wife was torn from his grasp by
tho struggling crowd, aud blind and
burning, he was pulled out and will
recover, but the woman was burned to
a crisp, and was recoguized at the
Morgue yesterday morning only by a
ring on her finger. Several ladies, not
burned, were made seriously ill by
fright, and Mrs. John Wilkinson, who
lived near the church, became crazy
and raving. Tho regular organist of
the oliureh was absent aud Miss Ida
Meunier played for her. The latter’s
lover escaped, but finding that she was
yet in the church, turned back to save
her and both died in the flames. She
fainted at the commencement of the
panic and was afterwards found suffo
cated by the smoke, but very little
burned or disfigured. One man in the
gallery saved his wife and four children
by his wonderful presenco of miud.
When the panic commenced he com
manded them to stand peifectly still.
Then going to the window he dropped
them out one by one, and thus saved
the lives of all with scaicely any inju
ries.
A stone-cutter, some of whose family
were in the burning house, asked some
friends to put him iuto a window. They
hesitated, and lie said if they did not
do so he should go iu through the
burning doorway. They finally helped
him iu, and he was able to save two or
three persons. Joseph Chattelle, who
perished in attempting to save his
mother, leaves a wife and four little
children. Mrs. Marie Roberts, married
but a week ago last Sunday, was burned
to death, while her husband, who was
seated iu another part of the church,
was rescued from amid the flames by
the heroic John Lynch. One of the
most touching incidents of the disaster
was the death of Mr.Lepreux, a French
Canadian, who but recently arrived in
this country. He saw his wife sur
rounded by tfie flames, and taking off
his overcoat rushed to her rescue and
caught her in his arms, but somehow
or other his strength abandoned him
and he could not retrace his steps.
Both wife and husband, held in each
other’s embrace, met with the most
terrible of deaths. Mr. Boulanger, in
attempting to save his life by jumping
from a window, was held fast by the
rushing multitude and was burned to
death, half of his body extending out
of the window and the other half
within.
Presence of Mind Needed.
It is doubtless true that many, with
more presence of mind, could ha\*e
easily saved themselves, as the galleries
were only eight feet high, it would have
been an easy matter, at the outset, to
drop from them aud escape by the rear
door. Hundreds uho mourned their
friends as lost on Thursday uight after
ward fouud them safe at home. A lame
gill was taken out by two friends; her
sister, who had been at home hunted
for her despondingly among the dead,
hearing that someone of the same
name had perished. At midnight she
went home and fouud her sister safe aud
unhurt. Amidst the terrible confusion
inside when help first arrived a man
named Gates saw a little girl who had
been nearly extricated from the mass
of writhing limbs aDd bodies which
were plied inside the door; he reached
over aud drew out the child almost un
hurt.
A Confirmation Service.
To-morrow was to have been the oc
casion of a confirmation service at the
French chureh, and a number of the
young persons who were to have re
ceived the rite were in the burned build
ing.
Scenes at the Depot.
The scene in the depot this morning
on tho twenty minutes past eight
o’clock trains from the north and south
was pitiful indeed. Many of the rela
tives of the victims of the disaster were
there awaiting the arrival of friends
from Springfield, Chicopee aud North
ampton, and as friend greeted friend
the sobbing aud the wailing was enough
to melt the strongest hearts.
