The Chaplain, Rev. W. H. Milburn, D. D., offered the fol lowing prayer: O Thou, with whom are the issues of life and death, we are in Thy presence bowed, humble and reverent, as we remember that a chair upon this floor is vacant and that an honored member has passed from among us. Let Thy compassion be the succor and stay of the wife and children who are bereaved and of the great circle of friends by whom he was loved and whom he loved in return. Nor would we forget, as we come to Thee, Thine honored and beloved servant, the junior Senator from Arkansas. Maintain his fortitude and flow of cheerful spirits. Bless the means used for the relief of his bodily suffering. return him to such health and trength as he usually possesses, and speedily bring him back with Thy benediction to his place upon this floor. Grant to These and all other mercies we humbly ask, in the name of Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen. 5 DEATH OF SENATOR WILLIAM J. SEWELL. Mr. KEAN.
