BURIAL CUSTOMS AMONG THE ANCIENT GERMANS. [Trantlaled for,T\e Tribune from Die Oarttnlaube, &V ilre, C. A". Sherman, That It was customary during tho Iron Ago to bury as well as burn the body, U shown from thu many cruvo-mounds, In which are found burnt bones, and also unburnt skeletons. Highly Interesting in this respect aro the graves of Hullsluti, which belong to tho early iron period. After ecctain relics of antiquity had coma to fight in this place during the lost century, thu Surveyor of Mines, John G. Barasauor, lu 1810 happened, while removing a mound, to come upon u human akelcton, which had on tho arm a bronze bracelet; and farther he found more graves, with utensils of clay and bronze. Later In Um season, another investigation was made, and in thu following year systematic excava tions were made, under the auspices of Ute Coin and Antique Cabinet Society of Vienna, which, even in the first year, accomplished surprising results, and were continued till 18(H. Nino hun dred mill ninety-three graves were opened, and 0,084 relics were taken, which wero secured lu Vienna. The graves were marked neither by on elevation nor by a stone; and Iheru wero so called surfuco-gravea, which were partly lu thu mound, partly In thu strain of chalk underlying it. Burnt and unhurul skeletons wero found, and that, too, in the sumo grave; consequently, thu custom of burial did not supersede that of burning, but both muse bavo continued at tho same time. The unburnt skeletons res', together with their burial-gifts, lu free earth, or la a clay receptacle covered with a large stone. The body lies extended; the arms in various posl* lions. A single corpse was found lu a sitting posture. Many lay, aa U sleeping, uu the left side,—the hand under the head. lu same graves were two skeleton*. Parents and children were found in the same grave. Traces of cremation wore found lu 455 graves. Thu burnt boxes ami ashes lay in the earth, on lame stones, or in a kind ol cotliu. One was iound In o wooden chest, two in bronze rccopta* cleat only exceptionally were clay urns found, lu (lie eulllns the remains were gathered in a little heap, mid the free apace appeared to be lor bunal-glUs. Uvorihu whole, clothes wore spread} uml, lusllr, stones protected It. Little as there was ut symmetry amt order in the posi tion, there was no more distinction between the graves of the burnt and of iheunbuiot corpses, iloth inclosed thu remains of men, women, and children. One grave contained the remains of two children, one of widen hod been burnt, (he oilier not. The burinl-glfU proffered rich material: bronze, gold, Iron, gloss, agate, amber, clay, ivory, ware made into utensils of various kinds. On the other hand, neither silver, coin, uor scrip was found. Kveu If the flails tail graven bo not ot German origin, yet innumerable other graves show them same results. At-u later ucrlod in thu Northern Iron Age cremation everywhere prevailed.—a THE CHICAGO ■ TRIBUNEV ■ TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 18. TB7D-TVVELVE PAGES. custom which, ncoordlng to Hie old mvlhnlogy. whs hitPuduecU by Odlu liimself. lie promised Jo the burned reception to Wolballu; and, the higher the smoko of the flames ascended,'so much tiro more did Odin honor the dead. 'V lien tlm lleht-hcurhiß fn*d, Haider, fell through l.okl’s cunning, Inc gods assembled for a grand funeral. On the dcoth slilp ao liimtcpse pile was erected, on which lay Urn dead, richly ornamented by Hie gods. Haider’* wife, Nttmn, come* weeping, t’nln breaks her heart. 'Him too will He by (he aide of the dead. Haider's horse, decked with costly trappings, must like wise follow his master. Ami now Thor, with his hammer, consecrates the flames. Odin him self presents the beloved with Ids coally ring, Draupnlr, mid accretlv whispers In Ida car. High up the flames ascend, ami the winds bear Un ship onward. The gods, standing An the shore, ace it move on, totter, sink, and disappear. llio Northern fingas tell of (he old Vikings who were burned on their ships. :.Jn proud array lliey were Ibid out on the deck of the ship, ami. about them wero their horses, dogs, falcons, ntnl slaves. '1 hen the salts were hoisted, the anchor weighed, the vessel pushed fromihe shore, and the fire-brand hurled. fJenlW tlm ship glides down the stream, and sinks in Its depths. Not only horses, dogs, and falcons .follow tlu-lr master, but also the faithful servant, amt some times the wife. Hut she follows of her own free will. As Brynhild makes known her determination to accompanv Sigurd on the dark way, to which she feufa herself Justified by the strength of her love, she remarks, Insinuatingly, “May sister Oudrun to-day ascend Hie funeral-pile with her husband I Mar the gods thus giro her counsel!” Or, rather, “Let our purpose possess her soul I" Then she begs her own husband “ to build on the open plain npilcao spacious that all who have come todicwlth Sigurd may find room thereon.” innumerable old German heroes rest by the sen, near the roaring of the billows. 8o for Hcowulf (nn old Sazoo King, whoso exploits are sung In HcowuH’s Song) was erected, at his own request, a mound by the sea, visible from afar to ail passers-by. And, lalcr, King Hclo and Tborston VlcKlngson, thefatherof FrllhtoJ. directed the place of their burial to bo by the son. Ihe description of these burials often boast so highly o: tiie magnificent funcrnl-glfts of clothing, srmur, and gold ornaments, tout the truth of such extravagant luxury was ques tioned; but. In tho Northern lunda. graves have been opened whoso contents ore astonishing, in great magnificence these nobles must go to Odlu. Often their ship uud their saddled war horse were given to them; even their triumphal car was placed iu tho grave; wherefore tncy could go at pleasure, sailing or riding to Wul halla. When the flames had finished their work of dcfilruetlou, then the kindred approached, and extinguished the flames. Tho remains were collected In nn uni, mid laid iu the grave. Usually tho mourners added love-gifts within mid beside the urn. SVIn-u the grave was closed, then the funeral-feast was held by the same; and, after this, they broke the dishes from which they hud eaten, and scattered the pieces, ns also the fragments remaining of the meal, uu the grave. That to-day. at the funeral of a distinguished man, his horse U draped In mourning; that, even to-dsy, there aru magnificent funeral leasts, may indeed be a remnant of these old customs.

The Inauguration of Washington as first President of the United Hiatus In Now Vork City to Ho Ilrprodm od Elaborately* AVio fork Tribune, Feb. IS. The Lady Washington ica-psrty mid ball, which has now become an established feature of the (tetter class of entertainments In the month of February, Is always characterized by some beautiful spectacle or other lu the way of tableaux, old-time dances, or tilings of that sort. The Intentions of the managers this year have been studiously kept secret, because It has seemed proper not to dis cuss them publicly until success had been as sured, There Is no longer any need of privacy about the matter. it has been resolved to represent on a grand scale a spectacle which was seen In the early days of this city, and which has always been re membered here with affectionate pride—the In auguration of Washington as the first (’resi dent of the United Stales. This ceremony took place nt the old Federal Hall, In Wall street, an eaiflee which stood on the silo of the present massive {Sub-Treasury building. It was attended with considerable show, and was fol lowed by a procession, and Inter by a ball. As it bas been necessary for the managers of the Lady Washington party to secure and discipline several hundred people, und dress them appro priately, In order to reproduce this fine old inci dent In the history of New York City, the labor of arranging lor it bus been very great; mid this luuor has been gu-ntly increased by a happy thought of the managers, winch, when ll had been tut upon, it was seen would odd greatly to the valued Urn entertainment could it be car ried out. Washington was surrounded on the occasion of his taking the oath of olilcu by a number of eminent men, the descendants of manv of whom arc still living In Una city and vicinity. The managers or' tiie coming enter tainment conceived the idea of having Chancel lor Livingston, mid Adams, May, Knox, Schuy ler, Carroll, Clinton, Itamlolph, Lee, Ames, Hamilton, and others who stood about Wash ington on the porch of Federal Hall, represented in the coining tableau by their own descendants. To carry out this happy Idea imposed much additional labor on the managers, but It seems that considerable success inis attended their clforts, and the tableau of the Inauguration will thus be something very (intercut from a mere spectacle and much more valuable. The original Bible upon which Washington was sworn into olllco has been pre served lit this city in the keeping of bt. John’s Lodcuof Freemasons. It will be used in the coming ccrcmonr. It was at one time expected that Oov. Carroll, of Maryland, would Join in the tableau. He lias lately declined to do so, but his lamily will be represented nevertheless. The gentleman who has consented to act in the character of Washington is u wealthy resi dent of Boston, who has a remarkable personal resemblance to Unit great man. lie is well known hero, mid has a wide clrulc of ucqalnt mice* throughout the country. Scenery is now being painted for the stage to represent Federal Hall, the old VerpluneK house, which stood near by, und other build ings lu that vicinity. It is fltuiut that, in order to obtain os great historical accu racy as possible, Mr. Lousing, Urn historian, is busv this week revising tiie details of scenery, dresses, and programme. The spectacle ot the Inaugural procession, which will follow tiie proceedings on the porch, will engage Uie services of several hundred per sons. There were live detachments of troops In the original procession. History has taken the trouble to preserve the fact that one of them, the New York (Jrcimdicra, under the command of Coot. Lar son, was composed of tiie tallest young men which the island at that time produced. To the sukuof historical lldellty, the best regiments In town have been colled on to obtain voung men for this detachment, over six feet high who aro seU-saerllleiog enough to appear in the coming spectacle with smooth faces, und whoso faces arc sulUclonlly comely to show to advantage under such circum stances. They will dress in bine coats with red facings, cold-laeu embroideries, cocked hats, unite feathers, white waistcoats und breeches, and black spatterdashes, buttoned close from tbe foot in the knee. For n detach ment of Herman grenadiers the Herman regi ments In town have been drawn upon. They will dross In blue coats, yellow waistcoats mid breeches, black gaiters, mid very full cone shaped caps, faced witli bearskins. There will also no Highlanders, Continentals, mid a detachment dressed In the plvlo of Lee's famous partisan legion. There will also bo In the procession all the peo ple who appear on the port'll, and it la thought that this leature of the entertainment will be unique ami Interesting. At some appropriate stage of tbc proceedings there will be two old-fashioned dances. One of them will bo entitled, “TheUulon of the Flags," in accordance with the old fashion which gave a patriotic name to all the dances of the day. The other will he a people's dance, in which sixty four couples will engage. The minuet will nut be Introduced this year. It is slated Uiut some of tiie original dresses worn on April UO, irs'J, will be worn at the coming entertainment. They are precious heir looms tn the families of tlie original wearers. Of course, the great majority of the dresses will be made especially fur Uni occasion. Con siderable expense will ahead this feature of the alTalr, ami it lias been predicted that nearly os much will bo spent in u private way to organize the entertainment as will probably be realized from It publicly, if not more.
