Funeral of General Gregg. --At half past 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, a large concourse of ladies and gentlemen assembled in and around the capitol for the purpose of showing their respect to the memory of the late lamented General John Gregg, of Texas, who was killed on Friday morning last in the fight which took place below Richmond. The body had previously been brought here and taken to the undertaking establishment of John A. Belvin, where it was encased in an open-face me gallic coffin, and from thence removed on Saturday to the Hall of the House of Representatives, in the capitol building, to await the hour appointed for the funeral to take place. At the hour above named his remains were placed in the hearse, which was drawn by four white horses, and followed by the members of his old brigade, the State Guard, a company of artillery, several distinguished civilians and military officers, together with a number of mourners and friends, the cortege proceeded to Hollywood
Fire. --About 12 o'clock on the night of Saturday a framed stable on Council Chamber Hill, belonging to John A. Belvin, was set on fire by an incendiary and entirely destroyed, together with six or eight bales of hay, which had been stowed away in the loft a short time since. Two old wooden buildings, situated on the brink of the hill, adjoining the stable, took fire from the flames and were also burnt up. They were in the occupancy of several negro families, and belonged to Mr. Moncure, of this city. The greater portion of the clothing and furniture in these houses was consumed.
