The lover was clothed in the robes of the grave, before the altar where Hymen's vestments would soon have been worn ; and the drooping maiden on the day when she should have been a happy bride, was a stricken mourner over the wreck of hope and love. It was a sad scene. None could listen without tears to the solemn monitions of the officiating clergymen, or the clear and mournful tone of the requiem. Prayers were offered by Ret. Mr. Dimmick and Rev. Dr. Dana, and the audience was addressed by Re...v. Mr. Campbell. The coffins were placed in the broad aisle, and an American ensign 17 thrown over each. Alter the close of the exercises at the church, a procession of several hundred citizens formed, notwithstanding the severe cold of the day, and proceeded with the bodies to the grave, while all the bells in town were tolled, and the flags were displayed at half-mast. 3?H2 THIRD GALE, Commenced about 11 o'clock, P. M. Of Friday, December 27.. The wind was from East to East South East, and blew a hurricane until near sunrise of the 28th.
