BALTIMORE, April 26-l0 p. m.
The funeral Of Archbishop Eccleston took place
to-day. II was a most solemn and impressive
scene. The corpse conveyed from the late
residence of the deceased to the Cathedral. An
immense concourse of mourners followed in the
train. The Cathedral was filled in every part, and
thousands remained outside. The corpse was
placed in front of the altar, where it remained
while the obscquies being performed The
Rev. Bishop Kenrick, of Philadelphia, preached
the funeral sermon, and the other priests and bsh
ops Joined in the solemn mass. The Germania
band present, and assisted in the musical per-
formances. This part Of the ceremony was su-
perbIy grand and peculiarly solemn, The entire
scene was one which could not fail to strike the
beholder with peculiar soemnity and reverence.
Every countenance present portrayed deep emo
tons of for the loss of one good and pure
and universally esteemed. When the ceremonies
in the church were concluded the mortal remains
were deposited in the vault under the Cathedral,
there TO sleep in deaths repose by the side OF
former archbishops.
There is considerable speculation in regard to
who will be successor to this high office. II has
been the custom of former archbishops to name the
one whom they desired to succeed them. This, am
told, done by the deceased; but who this person
il is yet secret. Whoever has been thus named
will be recommended by the council of bishops,
and receive the appointment from the Pope.

Irish EMIGRATION TO THE UNITED SrArrs.--In
the beginning ofthe last week, (says Dublin letter
Of the 9th instantly great was the influx of emf
grants at this port, that some of the agent houses
advanced the fares for passages to New York and
New Orleans; but on Friday the former rates were
restored Every day the quays are crowded by farm
ers small traders and their families, securing pas
sages across the Atlantic. Generally they appear
to be people in comfortable circumstances. pre-
senting trace whatever of poverty or the effects
Of famine; and there amongst them many
healthy, cheerful-looking young men and women,
apparently. rejoicing at the. prospect opened Of
leaving their native country for America. One of
the principal agents informed me, on Friday last,
that the emigrants Of this year are persons of
perior class to those who left in previous years,
and that that there arc few Of poor or very needy
class amongst them. The humblest class Of the
cmigrants proceed by steamers to Liverpool, where
they take shipping for some American port. As
an evidence of the great extent Of emigration from
Ulster, as well as the other provinces, the Down
patrick Recorder mentions that no less than fifty
persons left that vicinity Thursday last for Bel
fast, on their way to America. Emigration has
commenced from several Of the poor labor unions
at the expense of the rate payers; and arrange
ments are in progress for sending out an additional
number Of young women from the work houses,
by government vcssels, to Australia.

Rich BEGaAR.-Last evening man named
Edward Fitzsimmons was arrested by officer Banks,
Of the 18th ward, on suspicion of having committed
a petty theft, when, searching his person before
commitment. his pockets were found to contain two
bags of specie containing $3.50 in dimes, half
of which was thirty FIVE pounds. He also had in
his possession small dirty pocket book containing
$25 in Is and 2's on the Mechanics' Bank which,
to all appearance had not the light Of Heaven
for ten years, as they were mouldy md matted to-
gcther. BY his own confession, the whole of this
treasure WAS derived from begging, at which occu-
patton he had labored vglantly for the last twelve
years. Fitzsimmons is an Irishman, and, when
first he came to this country, he was employed on
a railroad in Massachusetts,, where he became dis
abled, came to New York, and turned begg8r.
Captain VOORHEES,, of the police, sent him and his
fortune to the almshouse as = vagrant, having no
home, and heretofore no visible means of support.
