reached tonight on this subject, owing
to difference between Sergcant-at-
Arms Bright and tho family as to the
detail Of the cortego to and through
Tennessee. Tho proposition OF the
| sergeant-at-arms, TO which the family
demurs, is to leave hore by special train
over the Chesapeake & Ohio TO Nash
Vile, and thence direct to Memphis.
Tho family insists, however that tho
route lilo over the Southern Railway,
with stoppages at Ashevillo, Paint Rock,
Knoxville Chattanooga and Nashville,
the body to lilo in state at tho capitol
next Monday, and thence to proceed to
Memphis by way Of Guthrie Paris and
Mckenzie. 1t is highly probable this
route will be adopted.
Senator Bate will announce the death
Of his colleague tomorrow directly after
tho senate finishes the consideration of
tho deficiency bill, which win take but
a short time. The senate will then ad-

where the interment will take place at
Elmwood Cemetery. AS stated above,
the route has not been decided, but it
will be either over the Chesapeake &
Ohio by way of Louisville and through
to Paris and West Tennessee, or over
the Southern as above described. The
time OF reaching Nashville and Mem
phis will, OF course, depend upon the
route selected.
