About one hundred and twenty-five carriages were
in line, moving two abreast. There was no music,
and no military guard. No banners were displayed;
no regalia was worn except by very few out Of the
large number of delegates from societies who walked
before the procession from the Church to the ferry
Yet q more imposing parade has rarely if ever been
seen in our streets. In the church, a great ma
jority of the audience was composed of we'll

The route was down the Fifth-ave to Four
teenth-st through Fourteenth-st. to Broadway,
and down Broadway TO the Bowling green, where
the line divided, one-half going through White
hall-sr and the other through State-st meeting at
the ferry. The bells Of st. Paul and Trinity were
toled as the procession passed. The carriage con-
tanning the President turned off at Beaverst. and
was driven rapidly uptown. Many others left the

and particular friends a large number Of THE
TRIBUNE employees, and other persons, kept on to
the Cemetery.
