Dotaon died, yefctenlay, at liin room, oil Royal etreet. lie was a native of Nashville, and wanted lint a few days of having attained his fortieth year. He was reared iu Mismssippi, iiiid for many years resided iu Jackson, ia that State, aud having tludicd tbe legal rofetsion, became a member of tlie bar.

Iu he moed to Fort Srairh, Arkansas, where, up to the toniuieneeuicni of the war, he jracticed wiih eiH i e.13 his profL'aiu. the breaking out. of the war he aseited in raining an infantry company, and was rhoren captain of it. This company became a portion of the 1 ill Arkum ae of which the intrepid Col. John Griffith was the commander.

Col. DotHon was with Van Doru at the hard fought battle of Elkhorn, and came across the BfcsisHippi wuh this commander when ordered to reinforce Beaurjegard after the battle of Shiloh. He wa in the battle of Corinth, and remained in active service in the Department of Misitwippi and Louisiana up lo the mrrender. Just before the investment of Port Hudson by Banks, his regiment was mounted, imU the valor of Griffith's command, of which C.l. Dot son was a.

At the hour ot 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon Ihe St Louis Ctmetery was the scene of au fiKsemblage, such as never before had been witnessed within those ancient walls, which enclose the mortal remains of so many who, in their time, had been loved and revered by the popnlatiou of Louisiana. It was tbe occasion of the disinterment and removal of the remains of one who, though neither a native nor a resident of New Or leans, was perhaps dearer than either native or resident, in the hearts of its people General Albert Sidney Johnston, the hero chieftain of the Confederate army, the victor and victim of the bloody field of Shiloh. The State of Texas had sent a committee for the purpose of superintending this duty, aud yesterday was appointed foY the exhumation. Both Kentucky, the State of his nativity, and Louisiana, the State to which his remains were first brought, had hoped to maintain the gtiardi hip of them but neither Kentucky nor Louisiana could fairly outer into this pious competition wilh the State of which the hero had become a citueu to which he wa attached by the ties of a lengthened residence, and in whose behalf he had drawn that sword which he was always ready to it Id fo gallantly in defence of liberty and right. It was generally kiiown throughout thu city that the disinterment ami removal were lo take place yesterday at oVflck.

but no formal invitation had been issued to the pnldic to attend the ceremony. And yet when it was announced that the of the deceased and of his family we expected fo be preseut, this simple, phrase was sufficiently comprehensive to embrace a whole population, to whom the memory of the departed is even dearer than that of friend or relative. It was, therefore, not sur prising that so great a number of our people assisted at the ceremony nor that a majority should have belonged to that gentler sex who ti i strewed Uowers upon the hero's colKu, and ho ever since have tended kistomb with 1 ions cares more precious th. tn odorom g.ir l.mds. Alihouuh the event was one which ap" pealed directly to the sensibilities and emo tions of the people of New Orleans, the ceremonies were conducted without any the pageantry or pomp which usually character ies such Occasions.

No blaoury of military rank marked the simple procession which accompanied the remains from the tomb to the steamer. No note of martial music measured the solemu tread of the long line of mourners. But grief was not less sincere be anse its expression in the accustomed mode was not permitted nor was it the less inteuse that there was added to sorrow for the loss of ('lie so loved, sorrow for the loss of the cause for which he fought. No stranger could have supposed that the plainly attired pall bearers who walked beside the hearse were generals high in rank aud in reputation men who had led armies to battle and to victory; who had defended cities and who had urgani. raranaisns.

Among them were several who had been the lrienua uud iiKttociutes of the deceased in the oM.army of the Uuite.l Stares, aud some who had been bis lieutenants in the recent war, and who stood beside him on that fat il but glorious day which deprived the Confederacy ol hi services. There w.is Beauregard, the favorite son of Louisiana, who immediately succeeded him in command of the army; there was Bragg, his energetic and indefatigable chief of stair; there waa Buckuer, who so gallantly fulfilled the chieftain's orders, by the heroic but fruitless defence at Donaelsou It is remarkable, too, that among: this dis tingnished assemblage, there weremree men, Beauregard, Bragg and Hood, who had each in turn succeeded to the command ot the aimy upon which the life and the death of its lirst leader seemed to impress a pecnliar character, and a strange fatality an army, whobe history was illustrated by so many heroio deeds, and so many signal misfortunes an army which seemed to have inherited its heroiem from his life, and its misfortunes from his death. Besides those just named there were present iiniong the pall bearers, Gen. Richard Taylor, who achieved the splendid victories of Mans, field and Pleasant Hill. Gen.

Harry T. Hays, who commanded the famous Louisiana brigade in the Army of Virginia. GenJas. Longstreet, hose name is memorable as the commander of a corps of Gen. Lee's army, and who won distinction on so many battle fields, from Virginia to Georgia, at Manassas aud the second Mauaeeas, at Gaines's Mill, Frazer'a Farm, Chicamauga and at the Wilderness.

Gen. Thompson, so renowned for his partisan exploits in the West. Gen. B. L.

Gibson, who fought under the lamented Johnston at Shiloh, and who led his brigade of Loniaianians through all the bloody battles in which the Army of tho West was engaged. Gen. Dabney II. Maury, whose gallant defence of Mobile added a tinge of glory to the closing of the war. Col.

George Dt aa, whose valuable services in the Army of Virgiijia are well known to all, and Col. P. M. Luckett, who commanded, with wgnal ability, one of the finest Texas regiments in the late war. The members of the Texas delegation, acting as pall bearers, were CoL Ashbel Smith, chairman; Gen.

N. G. Shelley; Col. D. W.

Jones, and Major Tom Ochiltree. The tomb in which the remains have rested since they were brought to oar city was the family tomb of Mayor Monroe. It waa opened day before yesterday for the pnrpose having the original coffin placed within a new one, provided by the committee for this occasion. During the religious ceremonies the coffin rested outside the tomb, upon the shelled aisle, and waa covered with wreaths of immortelle and other flowera. To these were added by the ladies present, so large a number of floral oflerings, that the coffin waa almost buried beneath them." The usual burial aervicea of the Episcopal Church were performed by the Eev.

Mr. Beck with, of Trinity Church, assisted by the Rev. Dr. Leacock, of Christ Church, and were heard in profound and impressive silence by tbe eoi rowing listeners. This ceremony concluded, the coffin was lifted by the pall bearer from the gronnd and deposited in a hearse, at the gate of the ceme NEW ORLEANS, THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 24, 1867.

TOLUME XXX. NUMBER 321. tery. Here a spontaneous procession was lot med. 1 lie hearee moved slo wly down the etreet, accompanied by the pall bearers, and followed by a long cortege, composed of a great number of the ladies and gentlemen of the city.

Very many ladies followed imrne diate'y art the hearse, thus imparting a peculiar and touching character to the spectacle. The line of pedestrians was many squares in length, and after these came a number of mourners in carriages. The route taken was down Couti street to Rampart, np Rampart to Canal, up Canal to Chartres, down Chatties to St. Peter, and thence to the ferry boat, upon which the remains were to be placed. Trie utmost decorum pervaded the masses of people who were" assembled on the sidewalks to witness the procession; aud the feeling was manifested to such an extent, that the transit of the street cars and other vehicles was stayed along the whole route.

When the coffin whs transferred to the ferry boat, many persons embarked with it, and numbers of others were onlv prevented from doing so, iu consequence of the incapacity of the boat to accommodate them. I'pon the arrival of the remains at Algiers, they were placed by the pall bearers iu.he In. lies" pailor of the building of the Opeloiiiras Railroad, where they were left in' iharge of Lieut. Johu Crowley, who lost a hand at and an arm at Shiloh, and oihets, who were maimed while serving under the deceased in his last great battle. This guard of honor, mostly from Algiers, ill atch them tenderly and well until the hour of their departure for Texas this 'The remains will reach Galveston the and will probably arrive at Houston i Sunday next.

From thence they are to be forwarded at once to Austin, their final resting place. The Memorial of Albert Sidney Johnston. The funeral ceremonies yesterday were full of food lor reflection. There were our tenderly xiurluied girls and their mothers marching squares in length, through the middle of tLe dabbled streets, unmindful of the rough pavement, a weary mile or two; the men, great in story and ac hievement, who iu citizen dress, were yet generals who needed no com ir cii'ii, as the Northern journals said of them alter the liist Manassas, uud a multitude of of less note, but men venerable for their their talents, their constancy, their devotion, iheir sincerity, their piety, and their calm con luge. And then ihere was something inexpressibly solemu iu this mute conveying of these remains through our streets, as well as in the character and quality of the mourners, and the number of those whose sympathy was vividly, yeJt silently, made manifest.
