Lexington, Va , 2. o’clock, P. M., * ) October 15, 1870, via Staunton. J 1* a brtjdni'ttCKi beanytml day, in sfct cuutrA'si to the. feelings of our stricken’ people, but lit emblem of the etrnal sun light in which the pure spirit of our noble cbieitain now basks. At early dawn delegations from Staunton and the surrounding country begun to ar rive, and up to 12 o’clock the people con tinued to pour in, until there was, despite the fact that the washing away of the bridges cut off many of the people who would most gladly have been here, the largest crowd ever assembled in Lexington. All classes came to do honor to our belov ed and lost hero. His old soldiers, who followed him so cheerfully in the darkest hours of the Confederate struggle; the Pro fessors of the college, who he ever treated with such marked consideration; the Btndeuts, to whom he was in every sense a loving father and an unexampled guide; the faculty and corps of cadets of the Virginia Military Institute, In whose wel fareand succesfrhe ever manifested so lively an interest; tb* sovereign representatives of his native, loved Virginia ; the citizens of the town county whom he honored with his last days; in fact, every class, young and old, rich and poor, white and black, turned out to do him honor, for he was the friend of *H. * With a which would have been pleasant to the great MffflTTMng, the following was ob served as the ofdcr of the procession: Music. Escort of Honor, consisting of Officers and Soldiers of the Confederate Army. Chaplain and other Clergy. Hearse and Pall Bearers. General Lee’s Horse. The Attending Physicians. Trustees and Faculty of Washington Col lege. Dignitaries of the State of Virginia. Visitors and Faculty of Virginia Military Institute. Other Representative Bodies and Distin guished Visitors. Alumni of Washington College. Cadets Virginia Military Institute. Students Washington College as Guard of Honor. At 10 o’clock precisely the procession was formed on the college grounds in front of the President’s house, and moved down Washington street, up Jefferson street to the Franklin Hall, thence to Main st eet, where it was joined in front of the hotel by the representatives of the State of Virginia and other representative bodies in their or der, and by the organized body of the citi zens in front of the Court House. The proeessiou then moved by<tbe road to the Virginia Military Institute, where It was joined bv the visitors, faculty and ca dets of the Virginia Military Institute, in their respective places. The- procession was closed by the students of Washington College as a guard of honor, and then moved up through the Institu:c and col lege grounds to the chapel. The procession was halted in front of the chapel, when the cadets of the Institute and the students of Washington College were marched through the college chapel, past the remains, and were afterwards drawn up in two bodies on the south side of the chapel. The remainder of the pro cession then proceeded into the chapel and were seated under the direction of the marshals. The gallery and side blocks were reserved for ladies. As the procession moved on to a solemn dirge by the Institute band, the bells of the town began to toll, and the institute bat tery fired minute guns, which were kept up duriDg the whole exercises. In front of the National Hotel the proces sion was joined by the committee of the Legislature, consisting of Col. W. H. Tay lor, Col. E. D. Pendleton, W. L. Riddick, Maj. Keiley, Geo. Walker, S. 8. Turner, H. Bowen, T.’O. Jackson, and Marshall Hang er ; the delegation from the city of Btauu ton, headed by Col. Bolivar Christian and other prominent citizens; Col. C. S. Vena ble, Chairman of the Facultv, and a com mittee of students from the University, and perhaps others. It is of course understood that there would have been large numbers of other delegations but for the known in ability of our town, now rendered much more than usually so by breaking np rail roads and the washing away of the bridges pn onr conptiy roads, and the short notice tEri-tUcclUn Constitutionalist. wbkhUie country had of the time of the Gen. B. T. Johnston was in command of the soldier guard of honor, aided by Col. J. K. Edmondson, Col. R. L. Maury, and Major J. B. Dorman. Capt. J. J. Wh te, Professor in the College, was chief marshal. It was remarked that the different classes who joined in the procession mingled into each other, and that among the Boards of the College and Institute, the Faculties, the students and cadets, the Legislative com mittee, the delegations, and even the clergy, were many who might, with equal proprie ty, have joined the soldier guard of honor; for they, too, bad followed the standard of Lee in the days that tried men’s sonl. Along the streets the buildings were all appropriately draped, and crowds gather ed on thes corners and in the balconies to see the procession pass. Not a flag floated above the procession, and nothing was seen that looked like an attempt at dis play. The old soldiers wore their ordina ry citizens’ dress, with a simple black rib bon in the lappel of their coats, and “ Trav eler,” led by two old soldiers, who had thi simple trappings of mourning. The Virginia Military Institute was very beautifully draped, and from Its tur rets, hung at half-mast and draped in mourning, the flags of all the States of the late Southern Confederacy. When the procession reache 1 the Insti tute, it passed the corps of cadets drawn up lu line, and a guard of honor presented arms as the hearse passed. When it reach ed the chapel, where an' immense throng had assembled, the students and cadets, about 650 strong, marched into the left Aloor and aisle, past the remains, and out uy the right aisle and door to their appro priate place. The rest of the procession then filed in. The family, appropriately joined by Drs. Barton and Madison, the attending physicians, and Cols. W. H. Taylor and C. 8. Venable, members of Gen. Lee’s staff during the war, occupied seats immediately in front of the pulpit, and the clergy, of whom a number were present, Faculty of the College and Facul ty of the Institute, had places on the plat form. jsquiuroe. 11 Week. 2 Weeks. 8 Week*. 1 M onth. fllOB ttf 1 3 Months, jl Months, jt Months Ji) Months. The coffin was literally covered with flowers and evergreens, while the front of the drapery thrown over it decorated with crosses of evergreens and immortelles. Rev. Dr. Pendleton, the long intimate -personal friend of Gen. Lee, his Chief of Artillery during the war, and his pastor the past five years, read the beautiful burial services of the Episcopal Church. No ser mon was preached, and nothing said be sides the simple scrvlce.ln accordance with the known wishes of Gen. Lee. After the funeral services were concluded in the chapel, the body was removed to the vault prepared for its reception, and the concluding services read bv the chaplain from the bank on the southern side of the chapel, in front of the vault. The pall bearers were: Judge F. T. An derson, David E. Moore, Pr., trustees of the college; Com. M. F. Maury, Capt. J M. Brooks, Prof. W. Preston Johnston, Prof. J. Randolph Tasker, Professors of Washington College; Win. L. Prather, Edward P. Clark, students ol Washington College; Capt. J. C. Bonde, Capt. J. P. Moore, soldiers of-the Confederate States Army; Wm. G. White and Jos. G. Steele, citizens of Lexington. There was sung in the chapel the 124th hymn of the Episcopal collection; and after the coffin was lowered into the vault, the Congregation sang with fine effect, the grand old hymn, “How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord.” The vault is constructed qf brick,'lined with cement’. The top just reaches the flboc of the ( library, hud, will be.»3auhlg‘J capped w-WJi white mar We, on whirl) Is the simple Inscription , - -v “ Robert Edmt;niTLke “Born January 19th, 1807. Died October “12th, 1970.” The burial case is one of Fisk’s patent metallic caskets, handsomely mounted with silver and lined with white silk. After the funeral the soldiers were marched to the court house, and there unanimously adopted the following resolu tions : Resolved, by the officers and soldiers of the former Confederate army, now assembled , That we have followed the body of our be loved General to the tomb with inexpres sible sorrow; the last sad rites are over, and as we venerated and loved him in life, we ardently desire to guard his Sacred dust. Here at the home of Ills adoption, in the edifice reared by himself and dedicated to the service and worship of his God, may his remains be permitted to sleep until the awakening which shall clothe them in robes of immortality. Resolved, That with the utmost deference for their feelings and wishes, we ask leave to present to Mrs. Lee and her family this expression of our anxious desire that to us and his neighbors and friends, and the . authorities of his college, may be granted 'the favor and honor of preserving and watching his sepulchre. Resolved; That the secretary of the meet ing communicate copies of these and our former resolutions to Mrs. Li e. And thus have ended the funeral obse quies of the foremost man iu all the earth Lexington. The American Soldieu —Gen. Sheridan —little Phil—writes home that, haviug witnessed all the battles, and even the Em peror’s surrender at Sedan, he has no hesi tation in declaring that the American sol dier is a better soldier, and better armed, and altogether a superior belug.than either French or Prussian, though he admits the discipline and courage of the latter are ad mirable. What does he mean by such an absurd declaration? The “ American sol dier” fought against terrible odds in the late civil war—an average of probably one to five throughout, and at its close the American forms hardly equalled one to ten when they finally laid down their arms and surrendered to the immense hordes of Irish, Dutch, Yankees and negroes, commanded by Grant and his subordinates. But Sheri dan’s assumption that the American soldier was better armed than the French or Prus sian, Is absurd enough, when every body knows that nearly half of the time they depended on captures from the Yankee hordes for their arms, and when they final ly surrendered, It was found that a very large proportion of the artillery as well a's small arms had been taken from the invad ing hordes. It has been suggested that Sheridan meant by the “ American soldier” the hosts that invaded Virginia; but that cannot be, for while every man in Lee’s army was of the American Revolutionary stock, Grant's hordes were largely com posed of the outpourings of the Old World, with even a large sprinkling of negroes. {New York Day Book. Grant and Gordonsvtlle.— The New Gommei-sial thus discourses: The President’s peculiar weakness this season appears to be State or county Fairs. His next appearance as a patron of agri cultural implements and prize pumpkins will oe at the Fair grounds in Frederick county, Md., to-night. Several of the mem bers of the Cabinet are going with him, and vast quantities of chicken legs have been forwarded front Gordonsville to ap appease the cravings of such distinguished stomachs. U is a peculiar fact, which may be noticed in this connection, that Gordonsville chickens never have any wings or baeks. An innocent clock ped lar from Connecticut once visiting those parts, expressed his astonishment at a phe-- momeuon so remarkable, but was suddenly quieted by the observation of a colored ca terer, who said: “ I duuno see why de chickens ob de Sons can’t be bornwidou’ backs, es many gemmen from the Norf are born widon’brains.” It is important that the President and his Cabinet should understand this thing before they go down there.
