Tbe sons of Geaeral Grant and t leir c •mpaniou of yesterduy were driving to tbe depot, where tne long black funeral train was awaiting its burden Guos b mined while the re mains weie being placed iu tbe cur “Woodlawn,” and (lie bells tolled slowly.

THE HEAVY TRAIN began to move at txucdy 12:30 At tbe instant, a dirge came up to tie ears of all in the train from tbe baud of tbe Jicksou corps that stood in line saluted Hundreds of persous standing nearest the tracks laid coins on tbe rails to have them flattened beneath tbe wheels of tbe train that carried Gen Grant on his la^t Journey. Ou tbe roofs of tbe houses In tbe vicinity hundreds witnessed the start and as tbe black train rumbled across tbe long In log • of die Hudson it was between vw.* deute hues o( pe- pie, who filled the fool path on either side.

At every station crowds were ns- embled und s'ond with uncovered heads as the train pp-ned by A f tbe garrinons opposite West Point the julire body of West Point cadets iu uniform, with all the < ffi<*ers of tbe icademy, were drawn up facing the railroad hi “present arms,” while from the opposite Bide of tbe river (be fi sb and nomn of heavy guns re- urued every five eecotids. No stops were made and at uo time wan tbe whtstle or bell ou tbe eugiue Bounded and tbe train rolled into ORAND CENTRAL DEPOT exactly on lime. The oa u'oiqjo and canopy at Mount McGregor reached tbe City Hail this morning, aud was early placed in position in the corri dor immediately behind tbe iron gate The marble flooring surround' Ing it* was covered with a rubber o*r pet, design' d to deaden the tread of tbe hundreds of thoutauds of persons who will pass around the blur while tbe budy of tbe deceased lies there. The military me hods proved in fallible. Tbe escort wa* ready at the Grand Central depot.

In Forty-third, Just opposite ‘he door that bad been ohcucn as the exit, the catafalque waited Tbe procession then took up THE LINE OF MARCH and in tbe order aud by the route as already pubhshed, Gen Hancock ai tbe bead. Every stoop und railing that might furnish a point of observa tion for signt seers was occupied As the coffin passed beads were bared and be huge crowd wuh silent —absolutely voiceless From far ahead, however, was beard tbe quarreling of tbe po- lico and people, but when tbe precis lion passed all was still save tbe steady tramp of the marobs ers, tbe rumble of heavy guns and tbe roll of muffeit drums and dirges of tbu bands. Ooce there was a mo mentary effort at baud clapping as Geu Hancock rodu by alone, but it. d.ed in the very attempt. Many bouses ou Fifih avenue ^Mieru bandsomelv draped As tbe procWsion entered Broadway, tbe show of black b Ctoiue profuse, aud flags everywhere were seeu at half mast. Tbu crowds down town were denser too, aud tbe police ha i greater diffi culty In restraining them, but at no time was the route luterferred with. M re than an hour was necessary to REACH THE CITY HALL. When tbe right eulured tbe park the left was still a mile away, at Houston street. When tbe proces sion arrived at tbe city hall it was after 7 pm. Tbe sidewak in front o; tbu steps leading up to the heavily draped portico of the ball had been kept clear by the police, but the side* walk* through tbe parks and the sidewalks outside of it were packed At length, when the mount ed police had made everything ready, G uer il Hancock and bis stuff moved into the pirk. fallowed by the Twen ty second regiment. Dismounting, General Hancock ascended tbe steps and passed luto tbe building here beneath the canopy of black, with which tbe celli? g of tbe ball is covered. He was met by Mayor Grace, president of tbe board of aldenne i Hmger aud the mayor’s private secretary and escorted to tbe mayor’s office. Tbe Twenty second regiment was drawn up on either side of the entrance aud a moment later the carriage contain ing Dr Douglas, KevDr Newnauaud Gem rat Porter rolled up After them Ciuie th^ fuueral car- A detachment of twelve men from the Brooklyn U H Grant post No. 327 lifted tbe coffin from its renting place and bore it to the stena. Tbe people bowed their bared beads as »he procession went Into City Hall. C-)i Fred Grant, U H Grant, Jr, and Jesse Grant, dressed in black, followed tbe body into tbe ball where tbe ca afolque stood. They were received by tbe mayor Then came tbe committee of one hun dred, representing tho cltyj of New York, tbe legislative committee, members of the common council of Albany and others. Wbeu these bad passe-J around the catafalque they left the building. Night had now settled down upon tbe scone.
