Mayor J. Taylor Edison, of Rich-
ie moud, Vn., arrived in this city
yesterday nn3 held n conference
with Gen. Glynn and staff, of the
Louisiana Confederate Veteran*,
upon the removal of ths remains
of Jefferson Davis to Uichmomi.
The detail* as to the date of tho
removal, the compoeition of the
escort, the number «f stopping-
place* and the route nro to, be-
agreed upon at. another cotifejr-
Mayoi1 BIliHon says the ro-in-
terment will take place in Holly-
wood oelnetery, Richmond, May 3.
A plot has been selected by Mrs-
Davis and wjll bo reserved for the
Davis family. The Louisiana
division will have charge of th*
ceremonies at New Orleans and
Lee Camp at Richmond.
During the coming summer or
fall designs for the Dnvia monu-
ment will be asked for. The mon-
ument will be erected iu Monroe
park, and it is expected to lay the
corner stone and begin tlje work
next year, and complete the struc-
ture within tha-next two or three
years.
Mayor Ellison, of Richmond,
and Gen. Qfyun. of the United
Confederate Yeteruns^ and bis
staff, this afternoon came to these
conclusions respecting theromovul
of Mr. Davis: Allnletnit.^ for the
removal iu New Orleans *are - leftv
to the direction of Gen. Glynn, as
commander of the Louikiana
division of United Confederate
Y’c4crans, sbd Gen. Glynn will
name the «ecort to accompany thb-

Who Discovered America ?
The following is culled from an

culiarly interesting: It was at

when Lisbon was a flourishing
Arab city, intelligent and splen-

tioh wse'sent out from its port to
explore the de»lt and unknown

brothers known as the Almagrn
lilts/ or the wandering brothers.
J'liAy must Lavs set eail before the
year of 1150. They crossed the
Atlantic, it is said, visited udkDown
islands and discovered new lands.
After a weary journey of many
months they returned in Safety.
A street wa* named after them in
Moorish ‘ Lisbon, calte 1 tho street
of the Almtgrurins. Possibljrtbe
attempt might have been renewed,
and a Moorish city might have
sprung up in Cuba ey"Hispaniola,
as Philadelphia or New York.
But soon the oouquering Christ-
ians took Lisbon end checked its
sdvauco in knowledge. For many
centuries it wan given up to war
and chivalry. At lengfh it reviv-
ed the Mooiish instiucts of trade
aud commerce. Lisbon beoaine
tbe center of discovery, and Col-
umbus learned in its traditions
perhaps the story of Almagrurins."
