the opinion that tbe body had turned par

funeral was indefinitely postponed and
further developments awaited with intense
interest. Not only did the cheeks assume
a rosy hue, but there was a noticeable
absence of the coldness and stiffness usually
characterizing the limbs of a corpse. The
bands were surprisingly warm, and up to
yesterday morning a warm per
spiration was perceptible. Yesterday
the body became rapidly cold, and sev
eral physiciaus who examined it pronounced
life extinct. The funeral accordingly took
place in the afternoon, the coffin being
placed in a vault in St. Alphonsie’a ceme
tery. To-day the friends of the lady visited
tbe cemetery, and insisted on the coffin
being opened, when they were greatly
agitated by tue discovery that the body had
again become warm, while the color had
returned to the cheeks. By advice of the
cemetery authorities the remains were not
removed, the precaution, however, being
taken to leave tbe coffin open and place a
guard in tbe vault, as stated. The painful

liberal appropriations for sustaining uni

for teachers. The people have the power
to vote upon themselves further taxes iu
each county, and the system is not there
fore so highly central zed as iu many oi the
other southern states.
In some parts of the state where the ne
groes are in a lar^c majori»y. they have
voted taxes upon tbe property of the
| whites, which have been cheerfully paid.
There are some old bourbons remaining
in the state who sigh for the old 'ante hel

build np a aew south.
Tbe constitutional provision, as in public
education, wa* adopted by so large a uia
j »rity, ana the sentiment of the people
was indicated so strongly, that the protei-t*

the guest of Governor Cor
nell, at the executive mansion, for a week.
The bearing that this may have on the sen
atorial election, which is to take place or
the lHth, is discussed with much interest..
The rumor is that on the eve of the 17th
Governor Cornell is to give his annual leg
islative reception, aud that Grant is to be
pushed forward, and it is thought that his
popularity among the members of the leg
ialuture will give his candidacy for the sen-
atorship an irresistible impulse. On the
lSih*it is said Grant will be proposed in tbe
legislature, not on partisan grounds, but
the greatest living citizen of tlie country.
There i* no legal opposition to the elec
tion cf General Grant from New York, the
constitution requiring only that he shall
be an inhabitant of tbe state and over thirty
years of age.
Against the likelihood trfSt these rumors
are true, it is argued that Grant would not
wait so long as tue l^th, if he were hoping
to secure the nomination. It is thougnt
possible that the differences among the so-
criledConklipg candidates, and the strength
which Mr. D*pew, their opponent ha*
shown, may have resulted in this arrange
ment, since Grant and Conkling are well-
known to be warm friends, and it is
believed the nomination of Grant would
