raj soemnity intended to sgnalize the general
mourning for the national loss sustained by the
death of our late illustrious President, ZACHARY

Saturday, the 9Th instant. and that the Sec
rotary of War should order certain detachments
of the regular forces to this city for the purpose
ofcombining with other elements of the military
part Of the funeral procession.
We are requested to anticipate the arrange
ments TO be promulgated by the civil and mill
tary authorities, so far as to say that, following
the precedent of General Harrison's funeral in
April lS4l, the details Of the military part of
the funeral procession will be referred to the
Commander -in-C Chief Of the army, and the
Major General commanding the Militia of this
District and that all detachments of regular
troops, and all the militia corps of this District,
and of such of the neighboring States as may
repair to the rendezvous III due time, will be
formed in column under the COMMANDMENT
Chief Of the army.
Under this notice, informal though it be, ii is
hoped that instant and active preparations may
be commenced for the respectable display OF a
militia force, composed of contributions Of vol
unteers from the District and the States.
The official orders may be expected in our
paper tomorrow morning

rendering of the tribute due to an illustricus
