Under the car there is a walking dog, though invisible from the outside. It is “Bruno,” the great Saint Bernard dog belonging to EDWARD H. MORTON, Esq. He was standing with his master at the corner of Broadway and Chambers-street, as the car passed by, when suddenly without warning, and in spite of his master’s call to him to return, he sprang into the street, passed beneath the car, followed its motions, and is still there. By what instinct was this? For “Bruno” was friend and acquaintance of Mr. LINCOLN’S, and had passed some time with him only a few days before his death.
The long and impressive array of the first division is now closed by the Grand Marshal of the day, Gen. HALL and his aids.
