Install Minecraft Forge if you don't already have it.
modarch.jar goes in the mods folder. If you don't know what this means, I recommend installing MultiMc, which automates a lot of the drudgery of installing mods. Once you have MultiMC installed, create a new Minecraft 1.4.7 instance, right click it, select "Edit Mods," click the "Mods Folder" tab, click "Add," and select modarch.jar. You're done!
