IN THE city The chief agent Of the Express Company
says they viii arrive at Philadelphia lbs morning at
81 o'clock and win reach the foot of Courlandt street

tenoon The body is in immediate charge Of Adams
Express agents Of St. Louis No., who will convey it
70 Ashford, CT, Gen. Lyons native place.
Gen. SANFORD on Thursday received dispatch from
Major COnant, the officer deppted by Gen. Fremont to
cake charge OF the body, dated at Cincinnati stating
shat it would arrive here Sunday night Mondsy
morning. An answer was returned that military es-
eort would be prepared and the Major was requested
70 telegraph the time Of arrival in Philadelphia and
departure for New-York The probability is that The
remains viii not reach here before tho time dedgnGted
by Major Conant, VINO has made allowance for the de-
sentOn he will be likely TO meet with FROM military
honors rendered the body.
