The Ceremonies at Portland-Arrival
of the Funeral Fleet--History
and Incidents of the
Voyage.
FROM NEW ENGLAND.
The Peabody CercmeniaIs.


PORTLAND, Me-, Jan. 26.-On the arrival OF the
Peabody fleet last night Captain William II. McComb,
Of Plymouth, came Immediately on shore and pro-
ceeded to the Falmouth House, where an interview
was held with Admiral Farragut and the committee
OF the town OF Peabody and representatives OF the
State Of Maine and city OF Portland. In giving an
account OF the voyage from England to America,
which he described as very pleasant one, Captain
McComb made the following statement:-
After leaving Spithead the two vessels sailed In
company until the town OF Ashout, France had Jeen
passed, when gale OF wind and rain struck them,
during which they lost sight OF each other. The
Plymouth, after endeavoring unnecessarily TO ind
the Monarch by making traverse courses, sailed
directly to the place OF rendezvous previously agreed
upon, the Island Of Madeira. In going to Madeira
the Plymouth made very fast time, sailing about
nineteen knots an hour, and anc1ored in the harbor
Of Funchal two or three days Eefore the Monarch
arrived.
While lying there a strong southwest wind arose,
and the vessel being in danger OF being driven on
shore 1t was found necessary to ship the cable and
standing TO the eastward, run into safe position
The naval ceremonies took place at o'clock this
morning but It has been decided that the remains
will not be conveyed to the City Hall until Thursday
PORTLAND, Jan. 26-9 A. M.-The monitors have
steamed down TO the funeral neet, and the Peabody
and Portland committees are just going down in
the revenue steamer Mahoning to the Monarch, the
storm having subsided. The morning is bright and
warm, the buildings and trees are encased in gilt
tering coat OF ice, and the streets running with
melted show, but will probably be In better condi-
ton on Thursday, when the reception procession
takes place.
