Tba Committee en Reeolntiona made their report after tba speeches bad bean finished. TBn INTRODUCTORY SFKKCH. After a brief speech by Dr. Simmons, Mr. Steward waa introduced aa tha first speaker.

He ia a well-known letter-carrier, and ana of tha moat prominent colored politicians in the city. Be made a clear, sensible speech, his subject being "Grant as a Citizen." He thought Grant tha greatest soldier of modern times, and alluded to tbe grief of the nation at his death. Briefly reviewing tha history his life, be spoke af his quiet, unpretentious way of living till tbe breaking out of tba rebellion. Ha said Grant waa ana greatest soldier of tbe age, perhaps tba greatest, of the world, and applied to him tba eloquent tribute paid tba Father of his Country first in war, first in peace and first i tne hearts of bis countrymen. Tbe speaker dwelt upon Grant's trip aronnd tba world aftar his successful administrations and hew ha waa reoeived span his rxe.rn in Louisville as elsewhere.

The fortitude of tba old soldier in tba face of bis slowly approaching death waa next mentioned, aad bis death touehingly described. This assemblage, he said, waa in sincere sympathy witb tba national feeling and desires to place its feel-ana' upon record. Dr. Simmons next introduced the Hot. J.

S. arris, who spoke upon "SAAHT AS A BOLDRB." Aside from Washington and Lincoln, ha satid. tha infltwiiit of the life of Gen. Grant waa naaqnalad ia American history. His destiny waa linked to the Union.

His death waa a world-wide bereavement. Every age had produced its mighty men of valor and renown. Alexander bad conquered tbe world at thirty-three, and otber warriors had distinguished themselves at a similar ace, but it waa seldoos that a man began at 40 and ended by occupying the position Grant did at 63. He blended the courage of tba military leader witb tbe ex- ocutif ability of a statesman, and yet ha waa an unknown man at' tha beginning of ana war. Like Moan of old, ha rose from ob- acurity to toll tbe modern Fnaraob to let this people go free.

Tke speaker then mentioned to various battles of too late war ia which Grant had distinguished himself. He bees att mora oratorical as he progressed, bat when be reached Appomattox ha banged his subject to tbe estimation in which Grant waa held by tha colored race. The grand old hero, be said, would shine like the moon among tbe lesser lights. To them Grant aad Lincoln were tbe greatest figures in tba hiatory of tha raoe. wbo for 200 years had tilled tbe white man's rope and reared his children.

The Rev. sir. Parria had a powerful voice, and his speech made a great impression upon tbe congregation. Aftar music Introduced Mr, by tba ehoir. B.

mi. Smith, Chairman subject was: "eaaJiT'a trxatkxxt or ran nxqbo." A "very important subject, aa most of na belong to that class," remarked the Chairman. Mr. Smith said that he wished every man, woman and child in Louisville aye, every ana in Kentucky were present. Ut did not abinh he could say too much of tha man who was associated with tba great Lincoln, lie waa ona of tha gallant defenders of the sons of Hans.

Ha waa a man wbo never lost a Wttle, and, though he often fell back, was stover conquered. The friend of all waa now dead. Hu fast sot only grieved America, but It smote wide and deep over all the surf ace of the globe. They had come to pay the last tokos of respect to Ohio's citizen to Sirs. Grant's husband to America's savior and greatest soldier a man of whom every bird aung tba notes of bis death.

U. S. "Grant wu a frisnd of tbe negro and tbe whit nan as well. It was a glorious thing that ha was the conqueror at Appomattox. This man was not fighting for fame alone, but for tbe oppressed.

He stood by his gun till slavery bad been blotted from tha Union. Alexander H. Stephens had said that Grant fought solely to free tba negro. His treatment of tbe Btgro had indeed been a glorious one. Gen.

Grant had said in bis tour around tba world that be fought because it was a shame and disgrace that human beings were bought and sold like eatUe. At tba important battle of Vicksburg's Landing he bad selected aegrors to guide him. In militarygenius, Grant had no equal except Wendell Pail-hps, Jolius Caesar, and Hannibal. Millions ware weeping over his death. 'Way down booth where the people had been anada to believe that slavsry would be re-enacted if Mr.

Cleveland took his seat, they bad beard tba wonder! ul news. All were grieving. In the war the rebels had said they would rather fight any ether soldiers Shan tba black ones. wonder, they were under Grant. Tba speaker waa not the only one who said Grant was tha greatest man who ever lived.

Mr. buckner and Mr. Johnston had said that. His name should be proclaimed among tbe sens of Ham as long as time lasted. TOUXO COLORED ORATOR.

The choir rendered another seng, aad then tba Chairman introduced Mr. Char las 8. Morris. Mr. Morris is a young man wbo graduated with distinction at the State Uui-Tenity last spring.

He is a remarkablv talented speaker, aad made tha beet address of the evening. War. he said, had been declared upon Gen. Grant last January, and for awhile it teemed that be was to bo spared for many months. Bat it was not to, for Death had determined So fight it out on that line if it took all eunuuer.

Grant evacuated Kew York, bat tbe arch-enemy followed him to Mt. McGregor. He again laid siege aad demanded an unconditional surrender. At 8 minutes past o'clock, on the 23d ot July, the terms were accepted, aad a nation waa ia mourning. It would he left to another generation to fix bis proper place ia history, but weighed conscisntiooalv in the pes loo of eternal troth he had net been found wanting.

Ha bad been said to be a friend of tha negro, aad tha speaker recalled aa incident after tbe war. A relative his bad organized the first colored Republican committee in Kew Orleans, and had east tbe first eolored vote, brant heard ot this and, learning tbat tbe msn wu ot fine scholarship, be appointed him First As-s a ant to tbe Collector of tbe Fort of New Orleans. It was on unbearable insult to too proud Southerners, and tliey never ceased to protest against tha choice. Grant never wavered, however, and when re-elected reappointed him and kept him in tha office till tbe bullet of tbe assassin removed him forever. He had also appointed otber colored men to office at a time when no other man would have dared so to do.

Ha wt a greater man than Ctesar, Alexander or Na-poieon, and successful in tbe Cabinet as in tbe field. His pure and sainted spirit bad gone to join tbat of the lamented Lincoln. The muse of history would place him alongside Washington and Lincoln. GOD WILL SEND ANOTHKB. The last speaker was Dr.

B. F. Porter, pastor of tba A. M. E.

church. Tbe speaker believed that though this statesman and soldier bad been taken away, God would send another to till bia place. Hie moral worth aad manner of life bad left a legacy to the people that no other man's bad. No ether statesman bad accomplished so much in to short a time. Tbe merite of tbe silent man wbo had gone would be left for another generation to estimate, lie wu a man who had reached the topmost rung of the ladder of fame.

Tba time was so short that lr. Porter said be would not sDeak longer, and concluded: "He has cone down into the grave, and let as lay into it ail tbe bitter feeling and regrets of tbe pat." TBS COM MITTS OX RXSOLCTIOWS. When tbe Doctor bad finished his brief address, the Chairman called for the Commit tee on which made tbe following report: "Ia the death ot Gea. U. S.

"As a part ot the American people ia honest accord with aU that tends to elevate tha name and character of our native country, and affected br all that tends to affect it in any manner, we deeply deplore the death of Gen. Grant aa a natienal calamity, and tender to tha family of tba dead bero taa heart-felt sympathy of our sorrowing hearts." The resolutions were unanimously adopted. TBI tiEIAT COLOKiD RACK. Dr.

Simmons closed by asking if nny of Grant's old soidiers were in tbe house. Eight or ten arose, and the Chairman said tbat be was among them, having fought at Appomattox and Hatcher's Kun. Tba andi-dience should not forget what the colored soldier had done. He had heard too in reviled, but be bad seen colored troops face a eanuon as calmly they faced their breakfast, liberty earn not to. their race without their strong black arms and dead bodies.

Mike Kaelin, the Wife Murderer, Removed from the Hospital to the Jail. no Relates tbo Story of His Crime to a Reporter Some of Ills Stale-meats Refuted by BeUtiTes.

Michael Kaolin, tbe wife murderer, was transferred yesterday afternoon from the City Hospital to the city jail. Tbe man baa been rapidly recovering from the effects of tha gash in bia throat, and is now able to walk about with ease, although be finds some difficulty in speaking. Several curious spectators watched him aa ha was escorted from tbe patrol wagon up tbo steps of the jail, bnt Kaelia spoke to none of t'ueoi. He was assigned a cell oa the second floor, and took possession without a word ot comment. Kaelin, yesterday morning, before be wu removed from tbe City Hospital, relaxed from his usual taciturn silence and told a portion of his story to a reporter.

Speaking of the tragedy, be said: "Oh, it was terrible, but ona could not help it. My wife waa not a good woman and she did many things to worry and vex me. To start at tha beginning, she waa not pure when I married ber. I wu forced to marry bar by ber relatives, and ooly a little time after we were married a baby was bora to us. I thought it wu mine, but my wire said to my workmen aad to tbe neighbors: 'It is net Mike Kaolin's child, but a better "After a time she got so she laughed at me, and all the n-ngubors laughed at me.

"She made no denial, and we quarreled and fought I struck bur. That was a long time ago two or three months, maybe. Well, I found ber out, and on the morning the terrible thing happened, went to her bed and told ber to wash Henry's clothes.

She asked, I told ber 1 was going to send him away, and she became very aacry. (She said tbe would not wash or pack bis clothes, and cursed me. 0b 1 tbe called me horrible names. I got mad and talked back to ber the same way. At last sbe snatched tha tire poker and struck me there," and Kaelm placed his linger on tbe side of his face.

A slignt scar was visible. He then ret a mod: "1 got mad then. Oh I I got too mad, and I grabbed her. It was a terrible thing. It was too bad.

"I was blind with rage and excitement, and, whipping out my knife, I slashed her across the throat. I did not intoud to kill ber, but only to frigtueq ber. bue fell to the floor, and when I saw the wound and tbe blood spurting, tbe realisation of the deed flashed over my mud. 1 felt her blood upon my tool. There was now mthing in life tor me.

and I thought 1 had better take my own life." As to the cause of tha trouble between Kaolin and bis wife, there are a number of other stories. It is is id that be was very close with his family, and refused to properly provide for tbem. All tbe ciotta-iag tbe children bare are two scant suits, each of cheap goods, and no ahoee. When the dead woman was prepared for dressing for the grave, it was fonai tbat she had but one chance of and they were in tbe wash. Tbe table was always poorly furnished, and the wife wu not allowed to make any of tbe purchases.

A short time ago she bought a twety-cent bill at a grocery near, and Kaolin, when be paid it. raved aud gave orders to sell no more to tbo wife on credit. Neither would he allow her a cent, nor would be leave milk at the bouse to be sold by ber. His money wu carried a pocket in bis under-clothing, and en each morning ba would carefully count it, as if in fear tbat sbe might oave taken some of it. His wife did all the work for tbe family and birei hands.

Her life was made a burden, aad see often laid she would bo glad to die. bbe dared not ask for ten cents for street-car fare. 'Any rvqaeot for money was mot wito a storm of abuse. 1 he sentimeat against Kaehlin is very strong, and many tuiuK that be will be hung. Little credence it placed in the stories be tells concerning his dead wife, and even if tner were true it is not believed that they ought to lighten his sentence.

Adam Iioeler. a resident of tbe eastern suburbs, who married a sister of Airs. Kaelia, states that there is abundant proof to refute tke charges ot her infidelity. He says that fer several years she had been most inhumanly treated by ber husband, and that be often whipped ber aad drove bor and nor children from bonie. Once she came to UoeLler'e bouse, and wbea nlaelin followed bor tbero be made tbe latter promise to aba tain from further cruelty or a suit for divorce would be brought.

Price, of this city, peculiar relations, which, so tar as Gen. Kosecrans is coucrned, seem never to lose tbeir force. In the terrible struggle of Stone Hirer, when Gen. Rosecrana' right was forced back and almost crushed by tbe Confederate advance, Gen. Hasacraas sought out Gen.

Price, then in eommaad of a brigate and holding a position of great importance, and addressed him thus: "Gen. Price, yon command bere.do you!" 'Yes, sir." "Well, sir, will you hold this ford!" "I will try. General "Will you hold this fordt" "I will die in the attempt." "That won't do." replied Gen. Rosecrana. "Sir, will yon hold this ford! Look me in the eye and tell ma if you will hold this po sition." Gen.

Price answered, "I will." "Tbat will do," replied Gen. Rosecrans. "I bid you good day." Gen. Price redeemed his promise; he held the ford. On tbo following day his brigade bore the brunt of Gen.

Breckinridge's awful charge with his division of Kentuckiana, and Gen. Rosecrans, for bis gallantly and courage on these two days, promptly and earnestly recommended Gen. Price for promotion. Tba attachment of these two officers was cemented aa tbe war continued. Later on, at the battle of Kennesaw Mountain, Gen.

Price was dangerously and seriously wounded at tbe head of bis brigade in a charge upon a Confederate tort, and became separated by the vicissitudes of war from bis old cominander. but lien. Rosecrana never forgot the here of tba ford of Mono river. He watched the future of his soldier friend with solicitude, and has never tailed to speak akiudiy word or do a generous act for tbe assistance of bis comraue. Goa.

Price established a splendid reputa- tioa in Kentucky an artist, but the effects of his wound at Kennesaw Mountain destroyed bis sight and crushed bis hopes of prelerment in his chosen profession. The eyes which transformed the figures and fancies of imagination to canvas, wuicb iad tbo soldier upon many a bara-fougbt field in bis country's senics, now no longer respond to iittht or hope, but are closed lu darkuuss forever. Tbe gallant solaier and skillful artist most now depend upon kindly hans to lead him.

His son, Coleman, held a position in the Revenue Office and has been In a large measure the Stay and Support of the General's family.

When a change of Administration was likely to produce removals in the officers of tbo Revenue Department, Gen. Kosecrans remembered his soldier friend and his help-lew condition and wrote a most earnest letter to tbe Secretary of tbe 'i reasury, expressing tbe hops tbat whatever other changes should be made, tha son of the gallant General, who bad held the fort at Murfrees-boro and borne the brunt of one of tbe most ternflo chargee of the war on tbe field of titooe Itiver, should not be displaced. Changes in tbe departments oftentimes work great hardships. Tba feeling is general tbat all wbo are in muss go out, but this looks like a case where patriotic considerations miebt intervene and where the sou of tbe soiiiier who had lost bis eye-sight in bis country's service mivht be permitted, if capable, to retain a subordinate clerkship. Cases lika this demonstrate the peculiar dlfilculties surrounding those wbo control ftices under a Democratic Administration.

Questions of removal or non-removal call for the ereateot tact and judgment, and it is gratifying tbat aU such matters in Kentucky are relegated to such capable men as Atuila Cox, Hunter Wood, J. F. Robiusou, and others like them. TILE ROLL OF DEATH. Two Days Report.

A vicious eolored fellow, known as "Black Sam." whose aliases are 8am Cook, Sam Brown and Bam Whitson, perpetrated a deed last evening that entitles bun to the full extent of tbo law. In company with several others, he was sitting ia front of James Bailey's bouse.

No. Presto street, about 6:30 o'clock, when he espied Johnny Gasaway, a colored lad, approaching from the railroad crossing.

Before he could pull the trigger, however, Johnny's who wu on the steps, sprang upon the wretch and in all probability saved tbe boy's life. A scuffle ensued, during which "Black Sam" succeeded ia firing one shot, which took effect in Elijah's right leg, just below the groin.

Tbe wound proved to be a large, ragged one, and all attempts to And the ball proved ineffectual. Dr. Spangler probed for it a long time. Tbe man seemed to suffer greatly, and complained bitterly at the inhuman act of "Black Bam." Gasaway was taken to the hospital. be could make bis escape, or even before be bad attempted it, a reporter for tbe COCRIER-JOCRMAX asked Cook his ob ject for such a deed.

He replied tbat be nad no intention of shooting tbe little fello and supposed tbe Wounding of the big fellow could oe considered an accident. He con fessed to having tbe weapon for tbe purpose of using ic on some one, and wnen pressed to the wall stated that the party's name was Clarence Crawford, the same individual who was shot by the deaperado, Clarence Higbtower, some weeta ago.
