He did not rave or rant; he did not fling bis arms wildly about and roll his eyes: he did not affect the extraordinary accent of ine professional elocutionist nor tbe extravagant gestures of the actor; he simpiy read, softly and dearly and sweetly, some of hit songs. The effect was restful and pleasing, and the audienoe seemed hardly disposed to let the good Father off when he begged to be al lowed to shorten the entertainment on account of a severe cold and hoarseness from which he was Buffer ing. They begged for the "Con quered Banner. Then it was that we might say of him as Scott says of his Last Minstrel: "Amid the stiiogs bis fingets strayed, And an uncertain warbling marfe. And oft be shook bis boary bead. But when be caught the measure wild The old man raised bis face and smiled, And lighted up bis faded eye.

We under stand that there is a project on foot to urge upon the present Legislature the passage of a law looking to tbe appointment of a rail road commissioner to regulate tbe manage ment of tbe corporations within, our. bor ders. Such an office, exists in several of the Southern. States. It being difficult to define its duties, the office may or may not be wortb the salary attached to it; its usefulness is almost entirely de pendent upon tbe man who: fills it. The extension of tbe Carolina Central Railroad lu -accordance with .ibe terms of tbe original charter is again being talked about.

The funeral obsequies of-the late Bishop Atkinson took plaee yesterday morning at S. Jamea'churcb Long before the arrival of the body at the place of interment.the build ing was crowded to its utmost capacity, ex cept the seats, reserved for the family and their immediate friends and the vestries of other churches. At a few minutes before 11 o'clock the vestries of St i James, St John's St Paul's and St. Mark's assembled at tbe Episcopal residence, and when the tolling bell announced that the hour ap pointed for tbe ceremony had arrived formed in procession, the vestry of St. Mark's in front, followed by that of St. Paul's and St. John's and St James'. Im mediately behind the latter caate the casket containing tbe body, with- the following clergymen in tbeir robes who acted aa pall bearers: tbe Rev. Mr. Ambler, Rev. Dr, Patterson and Rev. Mr. Pitts, of this city; the Rev. Dr. Marshall, Rev. Mr. Rich and Rev. Mr. Smedes, of Raleigh; the Rev. Mr. Larmour, of Goldsboro, and Rev. Mr Bronx son, of Wilson. Tbe body was carried to the church by the younger friends of the family, who were eager to testify in this way tbeir respect and affection for the de parted prelate. As tbe funeral cortege moved onwards, slow, melancholy and yet most impressive, the streets through which It passed were hushed as if to listen to the footsteps of those who thus bore their dead bishop to the grave. Never within our rei collection have we witnessed Buch universal respect shown and such deep emotion ex hibited. Arriving at tbe church the pro cession was met by (be rector of the parish, tbe Rev. Dr. Watson, accompanied by the Rt. Rev. T. B. Lyman, Bishop of North Carolina, and Bishop Whipple, of Virginia. The casket was borne up the aisle by tbe clergymen already mentioned and deposited within tbe chancel, a portion of the railing having been removed for that purpose The churcb was draped in mourning, not to any extreme, but with great simplicity and beau ty, our native moes blending !mbst harmo niously with the dark symbols of grief. Above the altar and ea each aide, was a Shield; on one was inscribed the words, "At jrest," and on tbe other, "I am the resur rection, both most tastefully arranged. The sublime service of the "Burial of the Dead" then 1 commented by the choir Singing -the anthem. After its conclu sion the Rev. Dr. Watson read tbe lesson from the fifteenth-chapter of St Paul's first Epistle lo the Corinthians, the hymn "Asleep in Jesus" was then sung, and at its conclusion the casket was low ered beueatb the altar of St, James' Church. As it rested within the crypt provided for it Bishop Lyman; with deep emotion, commuted the body to tbe oust rom which it sprang, and tbe closing por tion of the service was most feelingly ren dered by the Bishop of Virginia. Tbe hymn "Jerusalem the Golden" was then sung, and the immense congregation slow ly dispersed. It was the largest, most deorous and imposing funeral we bave ever witnessed in Wilmmgton. All classes and all de nominations participated in the ceremo nies; all anxious to do honor to one who was not only great, but good; one Of na ture's noblemen, a very prince among men.
