NotaWe Monuments in the Albany Kurd Cemetery The Great Men Who Sleep There. WHERE EMSTUS CORNING LIES. Passages From the Lives of Some of the Men Whose Flesh Has Turned to Dust Ere This. Albany, Aug. 18. Half war between thiscity and Troy, upon the elope of the western bank of the Hudson river, lies one of the most beautiful ceinetai-ie-s in emor Marcy is a granite shaft, about forty feet high, erectorl to tos ir.norr of Thurlow Weed. He was born under the shadow of the Catalan mountain in 177, and he died in New York city in 1882. His first appearance in jourtialisnl was about 1830, when he edited a news-paper in Rochester called the Monroe Telegraph. In 1880 he moved to Albany and established the Albany .Evening Journal, which is today owned try bin grandson, William Barnes, Jr. He took a prominent part in the war against the Masons, and when there was some doubt about the murder of Morgan by them, near Batavia, hes reported to have said that the body found "was a good enough Morgan till after election." He had much to do with the election and ad-ministration of William H. Seward as governor of the state of Saw York. While Seward was governor 'he was one day traveling in the western part of the state, and being desirous of seeing the country he took a seat on top of the coach with the driver. He appeared very much interested in everything that he saw. The driver also asked many questions. "Are you a lecturer?" Finally inquired the driver. "No, sir," replied Mr. Seward, ahking another question. "A lawyer?" "Well, not exactly," answered the other. "A preacher?" "No." "A doctor?" "No." After a pause, during which Mr. Seward seemed very much engaged with the scenery, the driver asked: "If you please, sir, who are yon?" "I am the governor." "How do you do, Mr. Thurlow Weed, I thought I recog-nized you all the time," said the enthus-- illWwm-- lastio driver, ex-tending liishand. Tin's is only one of many illustra-tions of the effect on the public of the general claim tliat Seward's ad-ministration was run by Weed. During the civil war Weed was ono of the most trusted advisers of President Lin-coln. He looked upon the civil war as caused equally by Wen-dell Phillips and Jefferson Davis; and be had about the same patience with the one as m I? TRE MAROY MONUMENT. ' m the United State. As nature left the plot it was full of small ravinos that car-ried little streams to the river. The have been bridged, the streams Have been turned into ponds here and there, the old underbrush has been re-moved, and trees unknown to the old forost life have been planted. The result is that the spot is delightful, Among the many names which are en-graved on marble in this cemetery, and .which have also found a place in the his-tory of the oountry, is that of Gen. Will-la- L. Marcy. ' IIaII between the revolutionary war lind the present day William L. Marcy was governor of tha state of New iTork. He was born in Mnssachu-- J sjotU in 1780, graduated at Brown uni-versity in 1808, and was admitted to' the bar in Troy. Ho became lieutenant pi a company formed in Troy in the war of 1812, In October of that year he was sent with a small detachment of troops to break up aOuindian post at St. Regis. He led the attack in person, broke open tha block house, forced the Canadian poops to surrender and received their (guns. This was the first capture of the par, and the British ftag taken by the young lieutenant was regarded as a (trophy of genuine value. In 1831 he Served as adjutant general of the state militia. In 1829 he was appointed asso-- the other. But TH) M0NIJMKNTi when the war was fairly inaugurated he was emphati-cally for the Union. Close by the monument of Thurlow Weed is that of a distinguished business man who was contemporary with both Weed and Marcy Erasing Corning. He was born in Connecticut in 1794, and lie died in Albany in 1872. The monument to his memory is an oblong block of bronze in the shape of a cross, surmounted by a roof to shield it from the elements. A simple granite base follows tho shape of the cross all aronnd, and upon the plinth is the inscription, "Corning." Ha was president of the pioneer railroad be-tween Albany and Schenectady, 4n 1880. His business abilities led him to see the great benefits of consolidating the sev-eral roads that extended across the state of New York.' This was finally done nnder the name of the New York Cen-tral, and Mr. Corning was its president for twelve years. He became mayor of Albany, state senator and member of congress. He was also a member of the peace congress of 1861, which strove to avert the civil war, Not far from the Corning monument is one recently erected to the memory of Arthur. It consists of a plain granite block in the form of a sar-cophagus, with a browse angel of sorrow luvincr a wreath nnnn it. wkhb erastto corning mks. Hate justice of the supreme court, and in 1831 was elected to the United States 'senate. The next year he was chosen governor of the state, and was in 18114 and 1880, but was defeated by Reward in 1838. The next year Presi-dent Van Boron appointed him one of tho commissioners on Mexican claims, and President Polk made him minister of war. He held that important port-folio during the war with Mexico. Mr. Marcy retired from the Polk cabi-net at the close of his term with high honor, and four years after President Pierce made him secretary of state. In 1830 he was sent into western New York, svhile judge of the supreme court, un-der a special law to try the eases, the act providing for the payment of his traveling expenses. When audit-ing accounts as comptroller he always demanded itemized bills, and as special judge he adhered to this proper rule, bo he put fifty cents in with the other items "for mending pantaloons." While run-ning for governor in 1883 this item lit-erally cut a great figure all over the state. At Rochester anti-Maso- orectad a pole fifty foet high on the main street, and suspended at its top a huge pair of black trousers with a white patch bear-ing the figures "50" in red paint, where It flapped through three gusty days. The grand old governor always enjoyed this fifty cent episode in his political career. So he did the prank of the stage driver iu whose coHch he was riding in western New Yorkin thespring after he was cnosen governor. The road was horribly muddy and rough. ' 11 THK BANKS MONUMENT. , Close by the grave of Thurlow Weed is a largo granite block in the cottage style placed to the memory of Daniel Manning, who Tas born in Albany in 1W11, and died here in 1887. Mr. Man-ning's public life as the leader of the Democratic party in this state for many years, and later as the secretary of the United States treasury under President Cleveland, is too well known to be out-lined hare. His early death was mourned by all. The most beautiful monument of all in the rural cemetery is the one to tli memory of the wifo of Robert Lenox Banks, of this city. It is a line piece of sculpture, knowm as "The Angol at theSopulcher." Of all theout-of-do-marbles executed by the sculp-tor ErastusD. Palmer perhaps this is the most prominent. The figure is that of an angol seated. The poise of the whole figure.and particularly of tho head, hows the most earnest attention. It is a figure upon which the visitor can never tire of gazing. The incident portrayed Is that described in the second and third verses of tbe twenty-eight- h chapter of Mathew. F. Q. Mathbr. DAKIKL MA.VMKO'8 GRAVE. As they were wallowing through a bad slough the driver shouted, "Now, ladies and gentlemen, hold on tight, for this is the very hole where Governor Marcy tore his breeches." The governor paid tot the dinner at the next tavern. Govsroor Marcy's memory is kept alive lit the Rural cemetery by a large block t granite topped by an urn. The de-jg- n is by Mr. Eraatuu D. Palmer, the celebrated sculptor of this city. Gov-ernor Marcy died in 1857, in the Sans Sonci hotel at Balls ton, which was then the great rival of Saratoga Springs.
