FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 1865. THE OLD AND THE NEW. The strong heart is majestic in the de monstration of all its impulses. America has astonished the ■world, alike by her Sturdy growth, her wondrous uprising in 1861, her exhibition of martial power and genius, and her enthusiastic reception of the joyous tidings of the fall of Richmond and the surrender of the main army of the rebellion. But no emotion has ever been more universally diffused among her whole people than that profound grief shrouds the land in sable, e y er y loyal household and as deeply as if seized its most dearly-lovcc^«*5 ml)er Grand in her primi tiye styj£|pg gj grandin her mighty efforts __,-te-OTinsform howling wastes into fertile plains, grand In the hours of danger and tribulation, grand in the happy days of re joicing, her sorrow is the very sublimity of woe. It knits together the hearts of all her citizens by that strongest of all bonds—a common suffering—and as a proof of the sympathy between the ruler • and the people of a republican country, it is as convincing as it is mournful as a spectacle of human anguish. From the contemplation of this deep seated grief the stricken mind turns for re lief to every source which affords even a remote assurance of consolation. We seek anxiously for any explanation that the weak reason of man can give of the pur pose of “the Divinity which shapes our ends ” in permitting our martyred chieftain to perish by the hand of an assassin; or ’ failing here, strive to find in present assu rances and hopes of the future a balm for our aching hearts. One fact, at least, should be received in a thankful spirit. The blow aimed at Abbaham: Lincoln, though fatal to him, while it has grieved the . very soul of the nation, has not weakened its power or deranged the administration of its Govern ment. Unless the purpose of his mur ' derer was the mere gratification of fiendish malice against the most forgiying and gentle-hearted of men, it has been com pletely thwarted. If he hoped in any way to aid the desperate cause that is writhing in its expiring agonies, he must see now that he has not only blasted that vain an ticipation, but has greatly increased the personal dangers of those with whom he sympathized. While his infernal bullet was surely directed against the loved man it slew, it harmed not the cause he typified, but, glancing from the shield of Freedom, gave the death-wound to Slavery. In the personal history and characteristics of the new President the nation should gratefully recognize a fruitful source of security for the future. Among all the civilians of this land, and among all men who have been thought or dreamed of during the last four years as possible occupants of the Presidential chair, it would be impossible to find one who has evinced a more undying devotion to the Federal Union than Andbew Johnson.: Be is the incarnation of the favorite national sentiment of his great teacher and apostle, the Hero of the Hermitage. It was comparatively easy for men of the North to battle for a cause which received the undivided support of their fellow-citi- But our new leader is one of the few who were faithful among the faithless, and who, with city, county, and State sentiment overwhelmingly against him, discarded partisan entanglements, braved personal danger, risked life, liberty, pro perty, reputation, the safety of his family, and all man-holds most dear, in a hazardous but glorious struggle for ; the life of this great nation. Tested in a crucible that would inevitably have made him a com peer of Jefferson Davis if one drop of Secession blood had run through Ms veins, the country found new strength and en couragement In its darkest hours in Ms magnificent attitude and in the stirring appeals for the right which fell from Ms trumpet-tongue. That he is fully in accord with the North upon the question of slavery is proved not only hy the recent action of Ms State in decreeing emancipation, but by his active exertions to secure the adoption of that gratifying measure, and by Ms repeated public declarations to Ms former constitu ents and to the whole American people. In vain would we seek for one who has rendered greater personal service to the twin cause of Union and Liberty, or who has given more convincing proofs of his unalterable attachment to those great pil lars of our political fabric. When, in ad dition to such weighty recommendations to public favor, it is remembered that few men have had an equal amount of legisla tive and administrative experience in posl .- ttons of high dignity and responsibility ; that as a clear thinker, close reasoner, and popular orator he is without a superior, and that to the pressing duty of the time involved in re-establisMng order in the- South he brings an unequalled accuracy of knowledge of the men, the feelings, the in '*S.terests,.the hopes and fears of tbat section, surely we should feel thankful that the mantle of Presidential power has fallen , upon such worthy shoulders. In the midst of-our sorrows we must re member that “ whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth,” and that even our sorest afflictions sometimes eventuate in final benefit. As a people we are possessed of a peculiarly buoyant temperament. We be gan the war in a rush of excitement, with many of the active agents engaged in it im pressed with a feeling that they were com mencing a picnic excursion, a sentiment fearfully changed by its Bad reverses and ■many severe trials. In the first gush of our rejoicings over the late triumphs, we were almost ready to end our bloody con test as blithely as if it had been a five-act comedy. But a new and unexpected blow ' has imbued us with a seriousness more be coming the awful responsibilities that yawn before us ; and Heaven has ordained that, as a preparation for the work of Re construction, we should “suffer and be strong.” In the providence of God it has hap pened. that the .Union ia to be restored under the Administration of a man who, chosen by the Republican party as their candidate for a position of secondary im portance, has attested his devotion to the two cardinal principles of their creed— ■fidelity to the Union and hostility to Slave ry—in the most signal and conclusive manner, yet who unites with that indis pensable qualification the rare combination of 'Southern birth, Southern associations, and a 'thorough knowledge of the men and feelings of the South. His name is familiar to that whole section, and, until the outbreak of the rebellion, he was re spected and honored by the whole body of the Southern people. In the great work of nationalizing freedom which is upon us, this simple fact may exert a most salutary influence. The misguided fol lowers of the secession leaders will readi ly recognize in Andbew Johnson one Whose course they cordially approved up to the commencement of onr recent diffi culties, and, reasoning from so favorable a starting point, may not their acquiescence In the decision of the arbitrament of arms become cheerlul and sincere through the thought that when their views differed he chose the course of wisdom and justice, and they the worse part of folly and crime? However this may be, certain it is that, onr new President will rally to his enthusiastic support all who are good and loyal in the rebellious fitates; that the long-suffering devotees of %Uie national cause will behold in his eleva- their personal vindication and future and that those who were unwil into the vortex of rebellion "wee in the defeat of the despe- impressed Thus, in the work Of reconstruction, to a united North will be added a strong cordon of vigorous and influential friends in the South. v . National Prudence.: Upon the table before us is a letter which appeals to us to use “ the great influence" which the writer attributes to the editorial columns of this journal “in pressing upon our Government the vital necessity of keeping a constant military guard around the person of our President.” Little dis posed aB we may be to admit the truth of the compliment paid to our influence, we feel that there is much in the suggestion. Which demands at the Go vernment attention. e 'SSt'toow that the life of the great Jffi&'good man—our late President, Abba ham Lincoln— -was threatened upon the occasion of his first accession to the curule cbairofthißGovernment? Arewenotaware that it had since been repeatedly menaced ? Is it not also evident, from the fact that the villainous assassin, John Wilkes Booth, called at the Kirkwood House, a short time previous to the murder, to speak with the then Vice President, Andbew Johnson, that it was in contemplation to remove him at the same time that the diabolical plot was carried into execution wMcbmade the “Father ” of Ms country the first and only Martyr to its unity ? We say only habtyb! The name is a holy one, and can only be applicable to the man who was sacrificed, without a weapon in Ms hand, without the time, even, to address a last prayer to that God in whom he had ever been so pure and consistent a believer, upon the threshold of that Israel to' which he had led his people. With these fore warnings, and the positive example of the criminally-base maimer in which too many of the more vindictive and remorseless agents of the Southern rebellion are dis posed to assist the unholy war to which they have given so bold and iniquitous a sup port, we fearlessly say that the People of this Empire would feel their present Ruler amply justified in taking every precaution against the ball or knife of dastardly mur der, which prudence can suggest. No outcry would be raised against Mm for doing so, as was at one time attempted ■ against Abbaham Lincoln for the regal, aspirations asserted to have been betrayed by his use of a body-guard, during the summer months, in Ms visits to the Sol diers’ Home. We have learned, by the bitter teaching of positive experience and sorrow, that necessity demands incessant watchfulness over the life of one, who, though yet untried in his new position, must become—we confidently predict—as necessary an element in the national life of the United States as he was who has been taken from us. The Nation has been bent to the earth under the weight of a terrible calamity. Let ns have a care lest such a calamity should again be repeated in the History of this Nation. It matters not whether the means we adopt be advertised to us by MonarcMcal or Imperial precedent. We can also find plenty of examples for it in our private and commercial daily life. If a prominent citizen were threatened with assassination would he not apply to the chief of police and procure a member of that body to look after his safety ? Were an at tempt at murder made in any private, dwelling, and the menace of its repetition: even vaguely indicated, would not a watch be placed at night upon that house to pro tect and secure the safety of its inmates ? , Why, then, should we refrain , from the immediate adoption of means for the pro tection of a life wMch will be during the next four years of paramount national value ? The assassination of Abbaham Lincoln imposes upon the necessity of protecting the life of Andrew Johnson by every means witMn its power from the steel or lead of the murderer. That na tional grief merits no sympathy which is the result of national carelessness—save, in an instance like that of the black and horri ble crime wMch has recently fallen so heavily upon the nation, and to which no parallel occurs in the whole of our Na tional History. Hitherto, we have stood alone in the political world. The crime of assassination was literally unknown in the annals of the United States. The Impe rial garments of our Liberty have been heretofore unspotted -yith the blood of our rulers. It behoves us to have a care that they shall receive no additional stains, and that they shall gradually wMten again under our care, to erase the blemish from the national memory—retaining only the precious name of the one Martyr to the Unity of this country and the emancipation of the negro, enshrined as a sainted appella tion in the inmost remembrance of the popular heart. -. Abroad. A measure has been introduced into the British Parliament, without any opposition on the part of the Government, the object of which is to alter the oath now taken by Roman Catholic members of Parliament, under the Emancipation Act of 1829, which is complained of, not without reason, of being at once unnecessary for dhy purpose of State, and most offensive to those who take it. The general impression was that making any distinction in the treatment of any one, on religious grounds, is but a relic of a dark day, long since gone into the past, and should be discontinued. An effort is being made, also, to abolish the test qualifications which now close the British Universities against all, no matter how great their learning or how excellent their character, who will' not or cannot subscribe, and, if demanded, swear to a belief in the “ Thirty-nine Articles” of the Church of England. This will be resisted, no doubt, on the plea that the British Universities are expressly intended for none but members of that, particular - Church. Public opinion, however, is deci dedly in favor of abolishing all religious tests, practical obstacles to civil progress, and Parliament is pretty much, of the same way of thinking. Lastly, on a proposition, not by an Irish member, to declare that “ the present position of the Irish Church esta blishment is unsatisfactory,- and calls for the early attention of her Majesty’s Go vernment,” (there being only 700,000 Proteßtants in a population of over 6,000,000, while the endowment is one of the richest of the world), though Borne of the Ministry declined voting for what really involved the reform of the Irish Church and the appropriation of .much of its'vast revenue to secular purposes, their colleague, Mr. Gladstone, averred that the situation of the Irish Church was the reverse of satisfactory; that out of a population of between 5,000,- 000 and 6,000,000, a very small minority possessed the whole endowment intended for the religions instruction of the whole community; that nothing could be more clear than the right of the Legislature to adapt its policy to the altered requirements of the age, unfettered by the legislation of' any men who, however able or eminent, were not gifted with an intuitive foresight into the wants and necessities of future generations; that the Irish Church had a large surplus to spare; and that tithes, instead of being the property of the land lord, were actually the property of the State to apply to the wants of the population. He did not think that the Government ought, at an early period, go into hasty and* premature legislation to reform and remodel the Irish Church. The proposition was not agreed to, on a division, but it is evident that Mr. Gladstone’s speech is to be taken as another indication of his advancing liber alism—a virtual promise, in fact, to deal de liberately with the Irish Church and its revenues, if ever he (Mr. Gladstone) should have the power to do so, as Prime Minister. It is evident, also, that with the views he has now expressed about the Irish Church, he cannot expect again to represent such a semi-clerical body as the University of Oxford. He will probably be token up ahd to the next Parliament by some great city, in which ultra-liberal principles prevail, or by some county constituency (such as South Lancashire or West Yorkshire) known to be in sympathy with the inhabitants of the great manufacturing districts it contains. No statesman who says, with Mr. Bright, that every man with good character and able to write shall have a vote at Parlia mentary elections, and that the Irish Church must be reformed, can have the slightest chance of support from the il liberal and exclusive persons who consti tute the University of Oxford The Russian Plague Predicted. It is almost universally be- that the Plague, or a jJfSacTftikepideniic much resembling it, rages in St. Petersburg, and has extended along the valley of the Vistula, between Poland and East Prussia. The deaths had been 2,000 out of 10,000 cases, and there was an average of 100 new cases a day. At Mos cow, precautionary measures had been taken by the police, who daily inspected the food and residences of the poor. It had been suggested that competent medical officers should be sent from England to study the disease, but of the medical stu dents from France, who had undertaken to investigate it, forty had perished. The epidemic is not the cholera, but the plague —known by dilated pupils of the eye, car-_ buncles, and pestilential bubos, which were the characteristics of the disease, when it destroyed 100,000 persons, in London, in the’year 1665, in a few months, and which are its characteristics at aH times and in all places. The British Ambassador had tele graphed from Bt. Petersburg, on the sth April, “the fever is contagious, and in England is called the relapsing or famine fever; also the remittent, or bilious ty phoid fever. It was unknownia Russia un til eight months ago.” On the other hand, a London physician, connected with a fever hospital, has written to The Times that “the public need be under little apprehen sion as to the importation of the Russian epidemic into England. The more formi dable of the two diseases composing it is there already. During the last three years true typhus has been prevailing among the poor of London to an extent rarely, if ever, before known.” It will be rememberedi however, that medical men doubted for a long time whether the Cholera which reached Sunderland, (also from Russia,)in the autumn of 1881, really was the Spora dic or the Asiatic —the latter being the ap palling pestilence which was so devastating through the United States,in 1832-34. At any rate, Sir George, Grey, the Home Secretary, found it necessary to assure the' British Parliament that he was taking pre cautionary steps to check, if possible, the introduction of the disease into England. It wonld appear that this disease, or some other fearful epidemic,'has long been anti cipated in Germany. The first Napoleon, who was very superstitious, as many great men have been and are, placed great reli ance in the predictions of the celebrated Mademoiselle Lenobmand, well known as a professional prophet, in Paris, for nearly forty years, and also the confidante of his wife, whose Life (“MemOires His toriques et Secrets de I’lmperatrice Jo sephine,” in three volumes, 8vo.) she published in 1829. At the Congress of Aix la Chapelle, held in 1818, when Napoleon was a eaptiye in St. Helena, this same Lenobmand attracted much at tention among the Sovereigns, and suc ceeded in particularly interesting the Em peror Alexander, of Russia, who, indeed, had a strong'tendency to mysticism and pietism, which was fostered by his friendly intercourse with Madame Kbudeneb, a religious visionary as well as an avowed seer. Lenobmand and Kbtobneb not only “told fortunes" butpredicted,boldly and largely, as to the events of nations, and it cannot be denied that their mysteri ous sentences had weight with the masses, particularly in Germany. In 1858 a small pamphlet was published in Germany, professing to contain a series Of prophetic revelations found among - the papers of Lenobmand, who'had died ten years before at an advanced age. It is notori ous that this publication excited great atten tion and obtained large credence through out Germany. It announced, among other events, that in the year 1853 there would be an European war upon Russian soil, upon which the eagle and the leopard would closely hug the bear (the elder Napoleon always having declared the leopard, not the lion, was the symbolic animal of Eng land) ; that after peace had been restored, the elephant (India) would attempt to trample down the leopard (England), but would not succeed; that following the war between Russia, England, and France, would be an immense emigration from Germany to the West (United States), for many years; that the emigrants would prosper in their new home, but a time would come when civil war would make them desire that they had not left their fader-land ; that, after the civil war had fearfully raged for four years, peace-would be restored, and remarkable prosperity en sue ; and that, about the time the war in the west had ended, a fearful sickness, commencing in Russia, would extend across the Baltic, desolate Germany, cause . immense mortality in England, and thence simultaneously spread to the east and to the west. This prediction Germans in this country believe to be now in its last stage of fulfilment. It is, at-least, remark able. An Endorsement by “The Press.’’ On Tuesday last, at an informal meet ing of the Press Club, several resolutions were passed which we published in yester day’s issue. The patriotism of these reso lutions demands no comment from us at a time when the whole country feels so deeply the cruel and heavy blow which has . fallen on it. One resolution, how ever, we call attention to, which was in troduced by E. C. Wallace, and which demands from every .honest journalist an unexceptional and clear endorsement: Resolved, That tbemoinbora of the Press Club of Philadelphia now, as alwasS, stand by the freedom of the press and or opinion, feeling that while trea son Is to he execrated and punished by swift legal means, passionate and illegal measures are to be deprecated when aimed against public journalists and orators, even wben their viewB do not aeeord with temporary political majorities. This resolution collaterally stigmatizes the action of the populace with reference to a journal published in Chestnut street as that actiog justly deserves. Had that journal , vindicated the late President’s atrocious assassination, we Bhould have justified the popular excitement. But, un der the circumstances, we unhesitatingly join in the expression of the opinions of the Press Club, and denounce the irra tional vengeance of the populace—exer cised without any reason for its exhibi tion- as it most unequivocally and justly deserves. We published, recently, the speech of Abraham; Lingoln in Independence Hall, in which he expressed his undying devo tion to the cause of freedom and his qarnest desire that “the weights should be lifted from the shoulders of all men, and that all should hare an equal chance." The coun terpart of that speech will -be found in an address delivered by Andbew Johnson to the colored people of Nashville last fall, and the country will be gratified, not only by the proof it affords of the sympathy be tween onr dead and living leaders, but by its eloquent and, In one sense, prophetic statement of the position of our new Presi dent. Mr. Johnson said: “Looking at this vast crowd of ooloredpeople, and reflecting through what a storm of persecution and obloquy they are compelled to pass, I am al most Induced to wißb that, as In the days of old, a Moses might arise, who should lead them safely to their promised land of freedom and happiness.” “You are our Moses,” shouted several voices, and the exclamation was caught up and ohsered until the Capitol rang again. “God,” continued the speaker, “no doubt pre pared somewhere an instrument for the meat work he designs to perform In behalf of this outraged people, and In ode time your leader will come forth —your Moses will be revealed to you.” “We want no Moses hut yon!” again shouted the crowd. “ Well, then.” replied the speaker, “ humble and unworthy as I am, If no better shall be found, Z will, indeed, be your Mdses, and lead you through toe Red Sea of war and bondage to a fairer future of liberty and peace. I speak now as one who feels the world his country, and all who love equal rights his friends. I speak, too, as a citizen of Tennessee. lam here on my own soil; and here I mean to stay ahd fight this great battle of truth and justice to a triumphant end. Rebellion and slavery shall, by God’s good help, no longer pollute our State. Loy ' al men, whether wlite or black, shall alone control her destinies; and when this strife In whleh wo are all engaged la past, I trust—l know—we shall have abetter state of things, and shall all rejofoethat honest labor reaps the fruit of Itsown Industry, aud that every man has a fair chance in the race of life.” THE A DELPHIC. TTtIPAY, APRIL 21, jgg^ American Demands on England. A London journal, generally supposed to speak •with a certain degree of information or authority, discusses the question of de mands made upon the British Government by the American. It states that these de mands are: First, that British jjflrtfl'sball be. closed against all-YCSSelsbcaring the flag of so-called,” and now defunct -Southern Confederation; and, secondly, that Queen Victoria should withdraw her proclamation recognizing the Southern rebels as “belligerents." It hopes that these demands will not be complied with, but laments that “ Earl Russell had been induced to address a strong remonstrance to the ruling powers of Richmond as’to their abusing the facilities for obtaining, vessels, arms, and other supplies.” ■This last is news to us. If true, we hold that (to use a familiar phrase) Lord Rus sell has put his foot iu it. To address any remonstrance to, or hold any communica tion with the rebel authorities at Rich mond, would be a virtual recognition of the so-called Confederation, and decidedly opposed to the spirit of Queen Victoria’s proclamation, which refused to acknow ledge them. In the present condition of the South, with the rebellion falling to pieces, like the castle of cards which a child some times builds up, it is of no importance to the United States what Lord Russell may say or do to the rebels. . His original blunder, as will appear to England’s cost, when payment must be made for damages done to and losses sustained by American 'commerce by piracies committed by Bri tish-built buccaneering war-vessels, was. the conceding that Rebellion can have bel ligerent rights. There was ; a great rebel lion in British India, in 1857, but the na tions never thought of giving a semi-re . cognition to Nana Sahib and his follow ers by declaring that they were- “bellige rents." Theremay.be, and probably will be, erelong, a revolt in Australia, for it appears almost certain that it cannot long continue as merely a colony, governed by a bureaucracy in London, fifteen thousand miles distant, and, if there be, Lord Rus sell, by his conduct to the United S tates during the last four years, has established a decided precedent for our acknowledging Australia as belligerent,” for admitting her ships into our ports, and for supplying her with pirate ships to prey upon and de. stroy British commerce. The "War Press for this week is a most valuable memento of the awful events which have recently shocked the heart of every true man and woman.in the nation. It contains full details of the assassination of our revered President, Abraham Lin coln, and the attempt oh the life of the Secretary of State, together with a special report of the funeral ceremonies at Wash ington. As a historical record it is Worthy of preservation by every American. Om Special Beport, Yesterday, of the Chseunles of Abraham Lincoln. Tbe hour at whioh Mr. C. S.A.

PRESIDENTIAL BODY-GUARD. Since President Johnsonentered upon the duties of his great office he has Invariably been accom panied In all his movements abroad by a guard. It was reported this morning that he Intended to dis pense with It in the future. Wo trust this Is a mere rumpr. To be constantly accompanied by a cordon of soldiers may not be agreeable to Mr. Johnson’s democratic Ideas; nevertheless his safety and.tho safety of the nation requires this precaution, and it should not, therefore, be dispensed with. The mortal remains of our late President now lie In state in the Botunda ef the Capitol. The cata falque, designed by B. B. Fbbnoh, Jr., son of the Commissioner of Pablio Buildings, Is located ln'tho centre of the hall, and upon It Is placed- the cof fin. It is at an elevation of about four feet from the ground, and tastefully got up. All of Its designs and trappings are unique and appropriate. The eastern and western doors, leading to the Botunda, were thrown open at eight o’clock this morning. A. large crowd was In attendance even at this early houn waiting to be admitted. When the doors were opened they moved forward In regular order, passing In at the eastern and out at the western entrances. There has been one continued flowof the populace towards the Capltol to take a last look upon the females of him who was so late among us In the vigor of health and usefulness. Alas! that one mean wretch should have had power to infilet upon this nation so great a calamity. Many thousands who looked upon the countenance of the mighty dead to-day, turned aside to shed hitter tears over his fall and the nation’s loss. tip to 1 o’clock the multitude thronging the Oapltol will average upon aetual count three thou sand an hour. No person can now leave Washington without a pass. This results very much to tho dlsadvantage of large numbers of people who came to the city yesterday to witness the funeral obsequies. Many hundreds of these people reside but a short distance from Washington. They thronged General An sub’s headquarters all day, seeking passes. This Step of the authorities at sueh a time as this Is necessary, and those who are Inconvenienced there by will accept It wlthpatlence. - THE NEW HAMPSHIRE DELEGATION. This delegation made a visit to the President to day, at 2 o’clock; They were received by him with marked respect and cordiality. General Gillman Marbton made a short address, whloh was re sponded to by President Johnson In his usual happy manner. THE DIPLOMATIC COBB’S. The diplomats corps called In a body to express their eondolenee with the bereaved nation upon the recent calamity and to assure the President of their consideration. They were Introduced by Aeting Se cretary or State Huntbr to President Johnson, at his rooms, In the Treasury building, this morning.

Bbuob was to-day Introduced to the President by the Aeting Secretary of State, and presented his credentials as Envoy Extraordi nary and Minister Plenipotentiary of her Britannic Majesty to this Government. Sir Frederick made the following remarks upon the occasion: Mb. PBBSinnNT: It is with deep and sincere con cern that I have to accompany my first official aot with expressions of condolence. On Saturday last the ceremony that takes place to-day was to have been performed, but the graoious Intentions of the late lamented President were frustrated by events which have plunged this eountry in consternation and affliction, ana which will call forth la Great Britain feelings of horror as well as profound sym pathy. It beoomes, therefore, my duty, sir, to pre sent the letter from my sovereign, of whloh ism the bearer, to you, as Presldentof the United States, and it Is with pleasure that I convoy the assurances of regard and good will whloh her Majesty entertains towards you, sir, ae President of theUnlted-'States. I am further directed to express her Majesty’s friend ly disposition towards the greatnation of whloh you are Chief Magistrate, and her hearty good wishes lor its peace, prosperity, and welfare. Her Majesty has nothing more at heart than to conciliate those relations at amity and good under standing which have so long and so happily existed between the two kindred nations of the United States and Great Britain, and It is In this spirit that 1 am directed to perform the duties of the 1m portent and honorable post confided to me. Permit me, sir, to say that it shall be the object of my ear nest endeavors to carry cut my instructions faith fully in this respect, and to express the hope, sir, that sou will favorably oonßlder my attempts to merit yonr approbation and to give effect to the friendly Intentions of the Queen and of hat Majes ty’s Government. I have the honor to plaoe In yonr bands the letter of eredenee eonfided to me by her Majesty. - - To which President Johnson replied s Sir Frederick W. A.

So eagej£ ly are the people of the two throughout almost the whole world in hv of similar commercial enterprises, accompanied by natural rlvalrle and jealousies, that at first sight It would almost seem that the two Governments must be enemies, or, at best, cold and oaloulatkig frllends- So devoted are the two nations throughout all their domain, and even in their most remote terri tory and. colonial possessions, to the principle of civil rights and constitutional liberty, that, on the other hand, the superficial observer ously count upon a continued concert ofaotlon and sympathy amounting to an alllanoo between them. .Each. Is ehaiged with- the develop ment of the progress of the human race, and' each' in its sphere is. subject to diffi culties and trials not participated in by the othor.

THE PURSUIT OF THE ABSASSIKIH PBMHBYLVAHIA. Bsadihg, April 20-—I have just seen Mr. Lyon, United States detective officer, from whom I ob tained the’following relative to the Booth affair: The report that Booth csllne to Beading on the train is Inoorreot. He was in Reading all day. The man that recognized him informed Mr. Lyon of his being in the town, and that he knew him to be Booth. Mr. Lyon, In company with Mr. Muller, another detective, immediately proceeded to trace him. They finally traced him to the depot, and ascertained that a man answering the description had got on the train whioh had jnst left. The faots were Immediately made known to Mr. G. A. Nlcolls, superintendent of the road, and an effort was made to telegraph to Port Clinton, the first telegraph station, but the operator not being about, an engine was fired up, and Messrs. Lyon and Muller, together with the man who had seen Booth, proceeded at mil speed to overtake the regular train. They did not overtake It, but at Port Clin ton were informed that the man described had got off the train there, bnt whether he went on the Ca tawlssh train or not they could not ascertain, A despatch was sent to Tamaqua, to the conductor of [the train, and In the meantime Port Clinton was thoroughly searched. Upon tho arrival of the train at Tamaqua the conductor telegraphed that the man was on the train, and another despatch was sent to the next station for farther information, with orders for his detention. This morning, at B o’clock, Detective Lyon received a telegram from Conductor Bright, datedat Oatawissa, saying that no snob man came through with him. Mr. Lyon statjs that he is satisfied the man Is Booth. What measures are being taken for his arrest are kept private, for obvious reasons. Tbe following Is a description of the party: About 5 f TO (, § Inches in height, black eves, black hair, cut short and inclined to Curl; short black mous tache ; had cotton In both ears; wore a white felt hat, and had drape on the left arm; a Lincoln badge In mourning; black frock coat, and common blue military pants. Readies, April 20.—The citizen who yesterday gave information of a man he supposed to he Booth being on the Pottsville train was taken before a jus tice of the peace this afternoon, and made an affida vit as to the extent of Ms knowledge. He testified that he had only seen Booth once, and that was seven years ago, and he now believes that the per son pursued was not Booth. He was understood to have stated yesterday that the man he saw was Booth, rad that he knew him intimately. It is reported here that the suspected man has been arrested at Tamaqua, but no details have been received. OAFTUBH Or THB SUTPOBBD ASBABBIN. The'lollowlng is the telegram from Superinten dent Nlcolls to Mr. Bradford, Treasurer of .the Bedding Railroad s To S. Bradford, Eiq.: Your telegram just rooelvod. On my return from Pottsville the representations made to me last evening were snoh that I sent np a speolal engine to Pottsville, after the evening passenger train, but the man had left the train at Auburn before the telegram could reach. He then walked back to Port Clinton after dark and stole his passage to Tamaqua on one of our coal trains last night. He Is now caught at Tamaqua, where we telegraphed to look out for him, mid will he held until Identified. There has been some ground for suspicion that it Is Booth. G. A. Nicoz.es, Superintendent. The followlng despateh wm received last evening by the Associated Press from a lawyer at Beading: Ekaeihg. April 80.—. The despatch published In this morning’s papers was somewhat erroneous! The statement given by the citizen of Beading re ferred to was that he had no acquaintance with Booth, having seen him hut once, seven years ago, in a. theatre, at Baltimore, and was not able to positively identify him now. He saw the suspeeted person in a saloon on Tuesday night, in company with another, drinking freely. Learning that the man Intended leaving town for Pottsville at she o’clock yesterday afternoon, he got upon the train alter It had started and recognized the Individual, who appeared very much confused at meeting him. He asked the citizen whether he was going up on the train. Upon his answering that he was not, the man said that be would be back In Beading in a day or two. The citizen then left the train and communicated thesofacta to a Government deteo* tlve of this place, by whose agenoy he has since bees arrested and Is now held in custody at Tamaqua, awaiting recognition.'

Ice in tub Pacific.— An unusual quantity of ice seems adrift In the .Pacific ocean this season; few vessels rounding Cape Horn out have been more of less retarded by It. The clipper-ship Sir John Law rence, whloh has arrived in the Downs, appears to have fallen In with an extraordinary number of bergs and drift loe.

After getting clear she had to ran some 200 miles to the northward through an Immense number of bergs, to avoid being embayed In another mass from the westward. The last lee was seen In lat, St deg. 50 min. S., and lsn. ST deg. SO min. W.
