THE FUSERAL CEREMONIES To.DAY?--lt Will be
seen, on reference to our advertising columns this
morning, that Governor Moore has ordered outthe
whole First Division to attend the funeral of the
two distinguished citizens of Texas, Hon. John
Hemphill and Col. Hugh Mcleod; whose bodies
are now yrg in state at the City Hall. This is
but proper tribute of respect to, the deceased,
and we hope that the military, in spite of the short
notice which they have had, will turn out strongly.
We know that it will be matter entailing great
labor but it is important that officers commanding
corps should do their best to appear on the ground
with full ranks. Our readers must remember that
the hour is early one, and that this is necessary
on account Of the shortness of the days therefore
all those who belong to military companies had
better get their dinners an hour or two earlier
than usual.
BEAUREGARD REGIMEST.-The companies COM
posing this regiment are ordered to assemble in
full uniform, on the levee at the head of Canal
street, this afternoon at o'clock, to assist in the
funeral of the two distinguished citizens of Texas

state We hope that the Captains of companies
will use every endeavor to bring their companies
on the ground with full ranks.
REFlsN1sG TO DU1I.-sergeant Y. s. Goodih, of
Company B, Crescent Blues, who has been in the
city during the past month on a visit to his family,

in Virginia ever since June last and was in the
battle of Manassas where his cool and intrepid be-
havior won the highest praise from his officers.

CHARGED WITH MUKDEE.-A man named Fred
erick Welter was arrested yesterday, upon the ai-
davit,of Dir. Wm. Cornwall, who charges him with
having driven soap cart over his little son, about
two weeks ago, nlicting injuries from the effects
of which he died. Welter, it is said, could have
prevented his cart from going over the child if he
had made the least attempt to do SO, and was ar
rested at the time, bu} owing to the fact that the
witnesses were not sworn at the Coroners inquest
he was released again, and the verdict returned
was thatzthe death oEthe child was the resulted
accident. This, we learn, is Mr.. Cornwalls state.

a military prisoner, subject to the order of Gen

who carries water to the prisoners was performing
