dent OF The United States offered The use OF the
east room OF The White House 10 the committee,
for the purpose ofdoine honor TO the deceased e1-
President, and giving the public An opportunity
of visiting the remains. But The committee de-
clined the offer, and the remains will repose in
the Capitol until the funeral takes place, on Sat-
urday.
The President has directed all manner of res
pecl TO be paid to the memory OF MIR. Adams
The following order was issued in handful this
morning. In consequence of instructions, all
the executive Offices have been closed Tor the day,
and every department has been draped in mourn
ing.
II has pleased Divine Providence 10 call hence
a great and pariolic citizen. John Quincy Adams
is no more. Al the advanced age OF more than
four score years he was suddenly stricken from
his seat in The House of Representatives by The
hand OF disease ON The 2lst, and expired in The
Can;tol a few minutes after 7 o'clock on the even.
ing of the ODD OF February, ls4s.
He had for more than half a century filled the
most important public stations, and among ITEM
that OF President Of the United States. The two
Houses Of Congress, of one of which ne was a
venerable and most distinguished member, will,
doubtless, prescribe appropriate ceremonies TO be
observed as a mark OF respect Tor The memory oil

all the executive Offices at Washington be placed
in mourning, and tina, all business be suspended
