Washington, Feb. 15.
REMOVAL OF BOOTH’S REMAINS.
On the 15th of April, 1805, Abraham Lin*
coin died. On the 15th of August, 1867, pub
lic sentiment extorted oat ol the pachyder
matous Edwin M. Stanton, the place, time
and oironmstances of the barlai of the man
who killed Abraham Lincoln, and the
secret of the grave of John Wilkes Booth
became known not only for the first time
to the country, but for the first time to his
relatives, who are few, and to his friends
who aro many. Since then the soclnded
room in the first of the warehouses In the
military buildings on theold arsenal ground
has been visited by many hundreds of peo
ple, notuated by all the mingled motives
which run between and connect curiosity
and affection. To-day, on tho 15th of Feb
ruary, the body of Booth was finally taken
up by order of the Presidout of the United
States, and the order reads as follows:
I War Department, )
Washington, Feb. 15,1869. J
To Brigadicr-Qencral Ramsey, Command'
ing at Arsenal :
The President directs that you give over
tho body of John Wilkes Booth to the
bearer, Mr. John H. Weaver, sexton of
Christ’s Church, Baltimore, to be by him
taken in charge lor proper ro-intorment.
Please report tho execution of this order.
(Signed) E. D. Townsend,
Assist-Adjt. General.
This order was issued by the Deputy at
Jl’. M.; the order of Mr. Johnson on which
it. was based was issued at 2 P.M.; at -t P.
M. Mr. Weaver, and Messrs. Marr & Har
vey, undertakers of this city, drove into
tho Arsenal grounds; und at 6 P. M., the
little ono horse express wagon they came
in bore out a wbito pino case smelling of
earth and covorod with u common stable
blanket. In that case jwas the body of
Booth, and with It the men drove to Marr
A Harvey's place on F street. There tho
pino box was encased In another larger
pine.box, and to-night it left under charge
of Mr. Weaver in tho train for Baltimore
Holms been instructed by Edwin Booth,
now playing in his own theatre in Now
York, to keep the body in his, Weaver’s
house, 11- Fayette street, Baltimore, during
to-night, to place remains in a rosewood
(•olhn, und with entire privacy to bury them
alongside of his father, Juuius Brutus
Itooth m Greonrnount Cemetery to-mor
row at 11 o’clock. It would bo only the
reproduction of matter to which the World
has given fullest circulation before to nar
rate the inode, lime and mannor of Booth's
midnight burial. Brieily lie was interred,
with a secrecy which smacked of the In
quisition, at the dead of night, under the
llng'-tone lloor of u room in the warehouse
• m llie Arsenal grounds. Only Stanton,
Holt and Jiuker wore present in addition to
ill.' liie of soldiers who dugthegrave. Hu
mor lias it that these soldiers only dug the
grave and wre then Inarched oil - , and that
■ In' ImmU of Staipon, Holt and Baker bore
m the nody ef mo victim ot Boston Corbett,
-h ivelied m and levelled down the earth,
and replaced iho sioiie llooring. However
tins may he, it is certain that the file-of
soldms were at once exchanged into a regi
ment on duly on liie plains, and thut many
and very strong reasons were given to
these men to suppress the scene at which
the Secretary of VYaroflleiuted as head sex
ton upon the remains of a man hunted to a
Virginia hum, burnt out of it as a rat, and
i-iiol by a crazy religiotnunic in tho spitiul
eh< a d.* Since then no direct effort has been
imidn till hist week by the Booth family to
get the body of the youngest, though I be
lieve request was made and Imrburiously
lelused to give over to Edwin Booth the
lin ts, shoes, and stockings which Ntautou
held, lilt Grant wont into the War Depart
ment, ml interim, when tho trunk was
bunded over. On last Friday John 11.
Weaver presented a loiter from Edwin
I •••■till to Andrew Johnson, simply request
ing the custody of his brother’s body, und
i l . was granted, as before told, to-day. and
the expedition with winch the order was
eilvcied has been already indicated. I was
present this afternoon at the arsenal, with
Means. Weaver, Marr amt Hnrvey, and the
"vents which occurred wore so brief and
purely official thut it required tho associ
ations of the time and place, and tho 5
memory of all the tragedies there culmi
nating, to enforce the suggestiveness if
not the historical importance of tho scene
even on the most- impressible mind.—
As said, the gentlemen entrusted with tho
receptuin of the remains arrived at tho ar
senal yrird at I 1\ M,, Mr. Weaver bearing
the order t<> General Ranisoy delivered it to
Captai.i F. 11. Phipps of tho Ordnance
Corps, Officer of the Day in charge. Mr.
Weaver's interview with Captain Phipps
lasted some fifteen minutes m tho lutter’s
office. At the end of that time the Captain
and Mr. Weaver re-appeared. Tho rest of
the party, including your correspondent,
followed them to two ponderous iron doors,
which dovelallud on onoanother, and which
were opened by Mr. Tapso, the civilian
superintendent oft.hu warehouse. Tho doors
wore exactly as those of a vault. Entering
into tho warehouse, we found that before
the varied n mien Is of the long room stretch
ing ahead could be scanned, a short turn to
the left brought us to the side room under
the lloorof which was first buried Booth and
.nitjM. quenllj’ the rest of tho conspirators,
as they arc called, and yol more subse
quently Captain Wirz, the Andorsonvillo
labor. The room is a rectangle, about forty
iiy twenty feet, and at,util twenty feel high
a.so. It is lined with shelves running up
ami across so as to form very many square
pigeon holes, which aro filled with boxes,
i. .Hies, tools and other odds and ends, iu
' iudiiig pieces of rope, small chains and
many ether articles. Right in ihecentre of
ihe room tho ordinary llagslone Hour!tig had
•'i’.'ii taken up, und the gaps left by the dis
•.tei moot of M rs. .Surratt, on Monday last,
•iml of Harold, on Sunday night, hud not
been filled up. Thu earth was heaped
nigh «.n "both sides. Tho peculiarity ot
iho graves, is that they uro no graves.
A single trench, livp,feet high, fifteen feet
I, eg, and six feet wide, has held the ugly
boxes which contained in order the bodies
~M rs. Surratt, < 'upturn Wirz, Lewis Bayne
.dins Bowed, George A. Atzerodt, David
I*. Harold, iuid Joint Wilkes Booth.—
Mr*. Surratt's disinterment left the boxes
leading Wirz, and Bayne, aud Atzerodt
quite visible. Harrold’s exhumation last
night, of which hereafter, would have re
•.'ruled the box holding Booth had not the
latter been covered up immediately after
v.ni'i!. In Ihn a sort of extra importance
w:i - given to the leader. J (is friends’ re
am.ns were hft tor lb" time exposed. His
were earthed over as quicklv as the suc
ceeding disinlerments revealed them, until
llm word came to have him-elf borne to
romvernU'd ground. The parly once iuth
n'oin, Captain Bbipps courleouslv and
quietly informed us of the relative position |

was paid to the presence of the dead. Jn

in response to an order of Captain Phipps,
fell to work at the unburial.' B »,tl,
lay last ol the scries of victims. To
gel at him ii was necessary, if tne
trench be pursued at its existing open
ing, to lake up A zenn.lt and Bayne.—
Timt was trie I, but the work it was soon
found wi u'.d exhaust tlie duylight, and th"
soldiers were ordered to come out of the
grave, t It row back the right hand pile of tho
earth upon the colfins, so culled, of Atze
rodt and Wji z, .just visible, and to open the
trench irom its further end so as to reach
Booth ilinetly. Tho work thus far had been
useless and h-ul consumed an hour ot very
preeiou* time. The soldiers, however, with
a style of digging which botokened them us
of tne old Army of the Botomac, in fifteen
minutes threw in about three tons of earth,
ami in forty-live minutes more had dugall
around the Booth box ho that it was
pulled up by hooks inserted under its
two ends. Jt came to the surface—the box
—in n sound state of preservation. The
rich dry soil having oven hardened lho
wood, which soil largely persisted in cling
ing to the hex as if loth to dispart from
the body which lmd so long been enfolded
by it. Tim box was carefully lifted to
where the rffbne llooring had not been dis
turbed Tub soldiers with shovels, and
with a broken sword which lay near by
carefully scraped the adheringsoil trom the
wood, and when the head end of ease was
reached tho broken sword removed several
layers of soil ami then shone out the name
John Wilkes Booth, in capital letters about
an inch long each, painted on tho while
pino in black paint. The name hail been
evidently painted on across a sheetof tin as
puckers mark their boxes, U-eauso tlie let
ters were as printed and not as written let
ters. Tho remains were not exposed, (mi a
siugle.genernl look was given tho box alter
it had been thus partially cleansed. Jt win
then borne by four soldiers on their shoul
ders to tho little red express wagon, inio
which it was placed gently and al
most impressively. A blanket was
thrown across and carefully secured
underneath it, so as to cover up even
a semblance of jt. Not a word was
said by a single person. The negro voter
who drove 'the vehicle could not read;
henco tho name on tho box when he suw
it before it was covered over was as Greek
to him. Al a>sigu he drove off. Good day
and thanks id Captain Phipps ami his sol
diers were exchanged. The little stubby
sorrel ttoke into a brisk trot, the negro
whistled Champagne Charlie, Lho gentle
men kept up strong and silent thinking,
and the body of John Wilkes Booth was
born on to tho city, finally in the custody
of his kindred, to rest forever by the side
oi his father, the great actor of trugedies,
next to tho sou whose deed and whose
death constituted in themselves the greatest
tragedy oi the time. Too streets of the cap
ital wore crowdod with people coming home
irom work. Tho tittle wagon attracted no
attention, for lour men aud a small box
covered with a stable blanket wore not cul
eulaled to excite even curiosity.
DISINTERMENT OF HAROLD,
The facts relating to tho Uianterment and
reburial of David E. Harold, Booth’s com
panion, ore as follows: On Saturday after
, noon Rev. J. Vaughn Lewis, ot St. John's
Epibcopal Church, made application to
President Johnson, in behalf of the mother
and sister of David E.,Harold, wlio<fras ex
ecuted with Mrs. Surratt, Payne, and At
zerodt, July 0,1806, for Harold’s remains,
and the order was immediately given. The
order was placed tn the hands of Mr. Jo
seph Cawler, undertaker, who presented it
THE LANCASTER WEEKLY lISTTELiIjIGEIN'CEB, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 34, 1869.
to the Commandant at the Arsenal, Gener
al Ramsey, and the detail of men wasmade
who soon dag to the box containing the re
mains. lying between the cases containing
the bodies or Payne and Atzerodt, and they
were delivered to Mr. 0., who at once took
them to his establishment on Pennsylvania
avenue, between Seventeenth and Eight
eenth streets. . The top of the case was
found to have decayed and fallen In.
REMOVAL OF ATZEBODT’T REMAINS.
This morning the mother of Atzerodt,
Mrs. Victoria Atzerodt, arrived here from
Baltimore, to be present at the re-Jnter
ment of her son. Mr. Scbade, with the
brother, John C. Atzerodt, called, at the ex
ecutive mansion this morning, and on
waiting on the President, received the order
indorsed, “ The Secretary of War will order
the donvery of the body of Geo. A. Atzerodt
to bis brother, John C. Atzerodt. A. John
son, President.” Tho brother, J. C. Atzerodt
immediately proceeded to the War Depart
ment to procure the further necessary order.
It was procured the same time the order in
Booth’s case was issued. To-morrow the
body will bo taken to Kentucky; that will
leave only Payne, alias Powell, at the Ai
seual. Tbore appears to be no one solicting
his body. Since the execution his father, a
Methodist clergyman in Florida, has died.
His name was Powell. With his death dis
appeared the lost man who seemed to know
or care about the man who came bo near
making a vacancy in tho State Department.
The Baltimore tfun says:
On arriving at Harvey <fc Marr’s a com
mon deal coffin was procured, and tho re
mains were placed in it nod brought to the
city. The box in which the remains were
originally interred was much decayed, and
on Us top was found the painted board with
Booth's namo, and on taking ofl' the lid the
remains were found to bo wrapped in two
or three gray blankets, and in a tolerable
state of preservation. The coat and vest
woro found to be in good condition, as ulso
the pantaloons, oxcept that a portion of one
leg appeared to have been cut off. Tho cav
ulry boot on his left leg was In extra good
condition, looking to be nearly new, and the
shoe on lho right foot—a common brogun—
had n slit cut down tho front, but otherwise
wus in good condition.
The remains were kept at tho establish
ment of Mr. Weaver in this city yesterday.
They have been placed in a handsome rna-
case, with hinged lid and glass
pluteV'For the present they are to be placed
In Mr. Weaver’s vault in Greenmount
Cemetery. The design of tbo family is to
have disinterred the bodies of three other
childron of the eldor Booth, now buried on
the farm in Harford county, which was the
former homo of tho family, and bring them
to this city, when those of John Wilkes and
tho others will be buried beside their father
in the Baltimore Cemetery. Tho mother of
Booth and other members of the family are
expected lo reach this city to-day, and it is
designed that the lust sad rites be performed
us quietly as possible at an early day.

There are in tho Pennsylvania Lc-gisln
tuio thirty-three Senators, of whom four
are seutfrom Philadelphia,and in the lower
House ouo hundred members, of whom
eighteen are Philadelphians. This city sends

resent its interest. We print the nam‘ j s <ff

This Is our delegation. Wlmt bus it yet
done for (he good of tho people?
From tbo beginning of the session to the
present time tho Legislature has been noto
riously under the rule of tho Philadel
phia delegates, who have apparently in
troduced tlneo-fourths of tho bills, and'who
huvo occupied the public time cyan almost
immeasurable amount of private legis
lation. Almost every day we have a report
of dozens of bills /or the exemption of pri■ \
vatcmanufacturivg companies from taxation
and/or othn- objects, which are technically
known as "jobs." The city members seem to
havonoendotclieniH, und the conn try mem
bers vote as they are told. This business
has been carried on this winter so openly
and extensively that it is the common talk in
Harrisburg that the Philadelphia members
“ are not there for legislation, but for dollars
and cents.*' Corruption has been so often
charged that the accusation has ptvisctl into a
■joke. It is a charge difficult to prove in any
one case, tint the air is filled with tho i
: stench of fraud, and tho black cloud of vul- !
lures banging over thoCupital indicates that
somewhere the carrion must bo hidden.
And if wc may trust, the legislative reports,
the Philadcljihia delegation is responsible for
this disgrace to the Mate, for it appears to
rule and direct everything that is done. A
few weeks ago Mr. Strang, of Tioga county, I
rose in the house, in an aberration of dis- j
gust, and declared that “lie would do no
more dirty work this session to oblige the
PhiludolphiunK.” But as he soon after
wards voted for a dirty measure this attack
of public virtue was soon cured. We are
obliged to believe that n corrupt, smart
combination of city politicians cau do as
they please with the less experienced gen
tlemen from tho country. These represen
tatives are so frequently changed, that by
the time an honest country member learns
how swindling is effected, he is turned out,
uud a 11 green bund” sent as a victim ami
tool of the metropolitan cormorants.
To tho public our Philadelphians do not
hold themselves responsible. It whs not
to the virtue of the House but to the fears
of the Senate that the defeat of the Belt/
bill was line. Almost every Republican
paper in this city declared that bill an un
just interference with elections, and a
dangerous precedent; yet Mr. Davis did
not hesitato to denounce those journals as
“ guerilla sheets," and to quote the silence
of The Press, which did not daro lo ex
press any opinion, ns au endorsement by
his parly. Then came the infamous Metro
politan Bolico bills, ono of which would
have been passed had it not been that
public indignation frightened the dele
gation. Then followed the Twelfth and
Sixteenth Streets Railroad bill, which was
matured in secrecy, passed by both Houses
anil signe?' i by the Governor in a singieday.
Jf there ever was a job this was one. The
people did not want it; the real owners f
the road are not kuown but are suspected
to be Philadelphia members ; the bill gives
the people nose-urity ; twostreets are given
over in hot haste to an unknown monopoly,
j We are waiting for the list ofjvas and nays
I on this measure, and intend to print it; but
! it is not always easy to get the full vole at
; the time when it is needed. But these are
j but glaring eases of abuse of trust; no one
| "an tell the history of the numberless little
, j'*bs that are merely recorded by their titles.
It is a Legislature that makes much
| noise over its bii-ine-s, hut which really
effects nothing. Ji -carcelv does tour days'
work in a week. ’I hr tnvy .Senate adjourns
, hatjitualb/ jran J-'nilm; (ill Jue.sdai/, anil
; the members go home for a holiday Ll
us see how the Uuu-e occupied the public
time last Friday. We quote from the
regubir report :
Nearly the entire morning session was
consumed in discussing the time at which
the ilouseshould meet next week. Various
propositions made, and some amusing
. scenes took plan-*. One admitted that the Irss
busmens was done,the heller for the Common
wealth. At this there were sarcastic or real
i shouts of assent. Another member offered
' a resolution lb move ihoeapitul to Philadel
phia in order lo accommodate the Philadel
-1 phiii members, and this whs also followed
' with the noisy assent of many voices, but
: was ruled out of order.
Among oilier reasons assigned fur a long
adjournment (until Tuesday next) whs one
that the Committee of Waj.s and Mean-*
hail bton invited to a supper In Philado
plna, and another nue was that some
members wished to go home to see their
wires. At length the confusion be
came so great that one member called upon
the Spouker pro ten i. to maintain order or
else tUe House would get u reputation as
bail as Congress. [Derisive laughter.} The
members called each other to order, and in
sisted on having the yeas and naysonevery
motion.
A motion to adjourn until next Monday
evening was linull.y agreed in.
Is not this disgraceful? Js it not plain
that in this disgusting exhibition of Indif
ference and lolly the Philadelphia members
were the ringleaders?
With such a Legislature, reputed to be the
i rami ever elected m Pennsylvania, what are
we to do? 'Kuduru n, that is too certain,
but not to endure it patiently. Let the Phil
adclphiit ({'deflation be watched : let honest
correspond' nts at Harrisburg notify honest
uewsjnipcrs, in time, of the jobs that aremed
dated. Print the yeas aim nays, and'hold
every member responsible for his vote.
And let the country papers give their repre
sentatives to understand that they must not
become the tools of the shrewd politicians
from this city. Let the public in every wuy
protest and watch, and take care that not a
single man who now betrays the State is
renominated in 1870. Republicans especial
ly should look to it, for our party is served
by men in Hairisburg who arc doing all
they dare to ruin it.—Phxla. Morning Post.

have made a discovery of the utmost im
portance and advantage to every young un
married person of either sex. Nothing of the
kind was ever before discovered. No discove
ry was ever learned with more delight and as
tonishment. I* con do no harm with or by the
evildlsposed. and I am sure it is of great use
and advantage to tb e worths, while it cannot
fail to benefit, both. I desire every worthy
young personl.o know this and have the ben
fit of my discovery, as advertising, postage,
&c., is expensive. I charge each one whom I
learn It 20 cents to pay the same. Young man
or young woman, if you wish to learn this use
ful and mysterious discovery, which will be
greatly to your advantage, by enclosing 20
cents and your Pnst-offlce address, you will
learn all about it by return mall. This is no
humbug. Should any worthy-person think it
such, let him or her write meaud not send the
20 cents, and I will send It free. J know If such
person learned It, that person will be thank
ful, which fact alone Is a compensation.

Besides a donation from the Government of
12,800 acres of land per mile, the Company is
entitled to a subsidy In U. S. Bonds on its line
ob completed and accepted, at the average rate
of about 920,500 per mile, according to the dffl
cnltles encountered, for whioh the Govern
ment takes a seoond Hen as security. Whether
subsidies are given to any other companies or
not, the Government will comply with all its
contracts with the Union Pacific Railroad
Company. Nearly the whole amount of bonds
to which the Company will be entitled have
already been delivered.
first mortgage bonds
By its charter, tho Company is permitted to
issue its own FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS to
the same amount as the Government Bonds,
and no more. These Bonds are a First
gage upon the whole road and all Its equip

THEY HAVE THIRTY YEARS iTO RUN

P A.Y A B L E I S GOLD
Such securities are generally valuable in pro
portion to the length of time they have to run.
The longest six per cent, gold Interest bondsof
the U. 8. (the ’Bl’s) will be duo lu eight years,
and they are worth 112. If they had thirty
years to run, they would stand at not less than
125. A perfectly safe Firet Mortgage Bond like
tho Union Pacific should approach this rate.
The demand for European Investment Is al
ready considerable, and on tho completion of
the work will doubtless carry the price to a
large premium.
