That it was a notable array any one wit.i halt a hoad
can rendily discover. The Hon. Vice-President and
Speaker wore the customary whlta linen scarf, and
to them were presented, without much lortn or cere
mony, the officers of the Acadomy and poet.
Captain Hoynton. Adjutant of the post, held in
lila hand a printed list oi the triad', and as the turn
l each came, he called a'oud his name, which was
lepeated in dnlcet tones by Major-General Cullum
in the oar of the suave Colfax, who, shaking the
.gentleman pleasantlv by the hand, turned him over
with alacnty to Vice-rreideiit FoMcr at his left.
This ceremony was lone, but hardly imposing; it
was probably gratifying to tho rcntlemcn engaged
in it, but to the populace, whostiained the nerves
of every eye to see me Licutenant-Gcncral, it was
decidedly a boro. However.it was soon ovor; and
then, availing myself of a lull in the activity of Goao
ral CuUum's duties, X ventured to ask the names of
THK rALL BEARERS.
I was informed that they had not yot been selocted,
and as it was then within three or lour minutes, pos
sjoly five, of the hour ot starting, it was deemd a
rood thing to do at once. Gonoral Cu I lum, by virtuo
ol his rank and position as Superintendent and gene
ral Head Centre of everybody and everything, had
charge of this and all other duties; in fact, he was
crammed, rammed, and Jammed with duty, and had
no time for mental, moral, or physical refreshment
from the time of General Scott's doath tothofiirewoll
shot this evenlnr; but as Major-Genoral Thomas
(Lorenzo), the Adjutant Goneral or tho Armv, wa
? resent, with great grace and equal tact ne referred
be selection to him.
Alter considerable discussion and "log-rollln?"
and divers pullmgs backwards and forwards, the fol
lowing named gentlemen were selected bv General
Thomas, and approved by General Cu lum: Vice
Admiral Farragut, U. 8. N. ; Bear-Admiral 1'almor,
V. 8. Commodore Bmggold, V.H.N ; Major
General Cullum, U.S.A. Major-Genera' Townseud,
V. H. A.; Major-General Bandford, A. Y. 8. N. G :
Major-Gcnerai Vnn Vllot, U. S. A.; Major-general
Delafleld, U. S. A.; Major-General ileigs, U. S. A.
After this slightly important matter was fixed.
General Thomas kindly furnished me with his official
copy of Gcuciul Cull urn's

Bdwabd C. Botkton, Captain and Adjutant,
One o'doc it seems was the hour designated by
General Cullum tor the formation of tho procession,
nod at two minutes before that hour Captain Bovn
ton, who, as Adjutant to General Cullum, was vir
tually the master of ceremonies, entored the room
and announced in a loud and commanding voice
that the hour had arrived, ana all who expected to
join in tho procession should immediately procood
to the square in trout of the hotel.
This ttaev all did, while the thousands of sympa
thizing spectators stood ac a respectful distance
awaiting lurther developments, some li'tlo time
was necessarily token In forming tho procession
according to the programme as above given, but the
couiniendablo promptness of Captain Boyntou aud
ail concerned was noticable, and peculiarly gruti
lying to all from the great metropolis, who have
been in the baoit lor many year past of expecting
(and having their expectations realized) a uolay ot
from two to three hours, according to tho import
ance of the occasion.
To the measured time of the best band (and poorest
l aid) In the scivice, the procession moved across
the parade-ground in the presence of not loxs than
fit teen thousand interested and afiected spectators.
There was no rushing lor place, for everybody could
see; there was no unpleasant crowding, for the
parade-ground can accommodate many taouands;
Vestries, thero was no olliciousness of police, tor
pickpockets ore unknown here. At length they
reached the chapel, where
THE FUNERAL BEKVICE8
were to bp held. Exactly at 12 45 o'clock, Rov. Dr.

Mr. Warren, ot Elizabeth, N. J., and Kcv. Mr. Hoff
man, of Brooklyn, N. Y met the pa.l-bearers at the
Chupcl door, aud the services then began. The Mile
cryau in the loft pealed forth a solemn dirgo, and
Hopping, gave opportunity for the reading of certain
Biblical sentences by tho Chap am, after each ot
which be, followed by the pall-oearers and others,
would halt, whilu the organ again gave it harmoni
ous volnmc ot sound and sympathy. Attor the ser
vice wob lairly begun by the organist, the proces

Chap'ain French.

Other Officers ot the Army.
General Sundford and Militia OUlcerl.
Governor Ward, of .Now Jersey, and civilians.
Mayor Hod man, of New York, and .Delegation.
'The chapel was too Binull to accommodate tho rest,
to tnat the other portious of tne cortege, including
the cadets and the several arms of the service, were
compelled to stay outsido, while the vast conoourse
of people, thousands and thousands in number,

While the organ was yet speaking, Bishop Totter,

calm and collected ; nor to the gorgeous funeral car,
nponi which rested the casket - precious caskot, in
whose narrow walls lay tho gem which tor more
than half a century has glistened in tho front of the
nation's coronet; nor to the tins of thousands ot
peoplo that ran ahead, or marched in step, or ran
around so as to bead off tho procession wnat would
be the usef the reader knows all this bv intuition.
The route to the grave was circuitous and tedious,
not to sav dusty, and entire, v too long. It wound
in and ground, out and about in the most extraor
dinary srrpontliie stvio, so that the baud was nearly
played crt, and the poor old generals, who are un
used to walking, were entirely flagged out. ilow
ev i , it was long, and tho march-e'en was very slow,
so that the popular conception of solemnity was
fully realized.
THE OltAVE
was dug just beyond the monument to the momory
of General Uugan, in the Point Cemetery, At its
side thej grave was vry docp was a raised plat
form, on which the coffin was first to rest; ordorll -s,
unarmed, attempted to keep tho place clear, bat did
not succeed entirely, and a vast concourse ol people
thronged Mio symmetrical cemetery grove, lined
the wood-piles beyond, and b ackened thoedies
of the ravmo long before the head of the proces
sion camo in sight.
When it came o the ground the colli n wai removed
from tho car. Bishop I'otter. Dr. French, aud tho
others stood at the foot ot the grave, the pa l-oearers
and General Grant stood at one side the otnors stood
wherever they could, and oi pollni looked on from a
distuncc. luo Bishop aud the Chaplain divided tho
service between them, and rendered it in a most
affecting and etlective manner, the grandeur ot which
wns vastly increased bv tho booming of the signal
guns, tho rattle ot prolonged reverberations of the
mountain echoes, tho solemn sllouce ot the uncov
ered multitude, and the ptesence ot the yet unl.urisd
chiel.
The coffin was lowered, and a tow shovels full of
Berth thrown on it.
Ibo Lord's l'rayer was said by the Chaplain and
the people.
A volley, thrice repeated, was fired bv the Cadit
Corps, the band struck up a jolly tune, and at a
quick stop the whole cortego turned from the
grave of the doad General to the reception of tho
living one.
At the hotel, General Grant endured the usual
pressure, and bis aids participated in the borrsomu
duty of smlhngl upon their tellow-cltlzens. Mayor
Hoffman entertained the party at a lunch at Cozzen's
Hotel, and at 7 20 P. M. the General and his lamlly
took the Western tram. Ar. Y. Timet.

Description of His Escape from Prison.
HE SETTLES A IUSPUTED POINT, AND
REFUTES THE SPY VA1.VMXY.
II I S OWN S T O R Y.
At his preliminary examination he stated to Mr.
Strong, the magistrate, that it was not his intention
to employ a luwyer. He was then remaudod to the
11th of November, when it was again postponed
to the 16th. On that day he received the u-ual
caution, when ho made tho reply, "You spook like a
lawyer, but X mean to act like a patriot." Then,
turning to the magistrate, he told him that he had
not employed any law yer and did not mean to do
so, as by so doing he should recognize British law
in Ireland. He deliberately and conscientiously
denied the existence of British law in Ireland, and
dclicd any punibhmeut it could inflict upon film.
On this account James Stephens was confined in
tho prison at Kichmond. There ho had time to
reflect, and it struck hitn tbat his conclusion might
l ave been a false one, and he thought the leaders in
this country might not undorrtand his reasons and
the assistance ho expected to realize from the move
ment might not come. After turning the matter
over in his mind be became convinced that he
should gain more prestige by getting out of prison
than he had done by getting into it, and accordingly
commenced to lay plans lor effecting that object.
11X8 escape.
On the following day one of the very men be had
intended to mnko an agent in effecting his escape
came to him aud said his escape had been planned
by ai ties outside. On hearing tne names ol tho
men who had the matter in baud, ho determined on
letting them carry it out. Soiuo days passed, whon
he finally beard tbat he was to Ictve the prison on
the morning of tho 2ith of November. His frieuda
outside hnd bad keys made to open tho six or seven
doors between his cell and tho prison wall, which
was twenty-five leet high.
On the evening of the 23d he went to bed at the
usual hour 8 o'clock. Ho was very drowsy aud It
required all his efforts to keep awake. About mid
night he arose and dressed himsell verv quio ly. He
then turned up the bedclothes and lay down on the
outide of the bed in lus clothes to await the arrival
of Ins lnend. Sbonly alter tho clock struck two
ho heard a slight noise at a considerable distance,
which he ai once knew to be the sound produced by
opening tho lirst gate, boon afterward ho hoard
a fiinilar noise and so on until tho key turned in his
coll door. This grated so noisily that ii had to be
drawn open with the utmost caution,
ft i lie night was pimlhir to the one on which Oliver
t romwell died, when tho dreadtul and destructive
storm which swept over England caused tho Cava lors
to sav that all the devils iu null hud oroken loo.e 10
carry his soul to its lust home. Ihe tmrh wind,
heavv ruin, and intense darkness of the night were
oil iavoranle for his escape. liis friend prosed him
self against tho door to prevent its croaking, and a
revolver was instantly piaced in his bund They
then passed in the samo muunor through all tho
doors ot the prison, until they reached tne open air,
when the outer wall obstructed tueir lurther pro
gress. It must remain a mystery how he ascondod that
wall, but the rounuer in which he desceuded it was
as follows: He bad boon given to understand that
he must leap from the top ot the wall into a garden
at the other side. Before doing so, however, ne tolt
along the top of the wall, and bis hand came iu con
tact with a metal funnol or stove pipe, at which, ho
pu led to see it it were firm enough to doscond by.
Finding it quite firm, he let himself down by it lor
some eight or ten feet, when he touud hiiusulfon tho
root of a shed, dowu which he slid to a path which
ran bv its side.
In that way no trace of his descont was left, and
hence the mystification of tho detectives. Follow
ing the roulo laid down tor him, ho went along
the walk to the end ot tho garden; then turning
ai right angles ho passed along to a point pre
viously indicated, whoro ho was to havo thrown a
Btone over tho outer wull as a signal for his friends
to throw a rope over to him. Tho ni"ht was in
feneelv dark and he was unablo to find a st-jiie,
and theretoro picked up a handful of gravel from
the path, which he flung over the wall, and a rope
was immediately thrown to him.
Hu seized tho rope with some anxiety, aikinp him
sell, "Have thev thought ot putting knots in it!"'
He fonnd they had douo so, aud ho began to draw
himself no bv it. The first help he received was by
cutcbinv bis leet against a protuberance, and at tho
second lilt his leet lodged in a hole in the wall, the
third broucht him to tho top. on looking doivn he
saw his lnonds in a group bolow.
iboy placed themselves against the wall, with
bended backs, and hu dropped from the top of the
wall, w hile one s'ahvau man held up his arms to
break the fall. No sooner was ne down thau he
to d his friends to disperse immediately ana go
