    1„. about twelve inches in length and one
iiu-h in width. _
KOBIXSON determined to oppose Ins pro
„ss and raised his arm to parry the blow.
The consequence was that a wound was
indicted in the centre of his (ROBINSON'S )
f, it'chcad, close to the hair, which he wears
tnl -ned back. The knife glaifced and the
leiiched hand in which the man held the
da ,r ""cr came down upon Mr. ROBINSON'S
t':uv'"and felled him to the floor.
.Miss SEWARD at this juncture escaped
from the room, and ran to the front window
<creaining murder. The assassin leaped
to the bed where Mr. SEWARD lay, still ap
parently in a helpless condition, and gave
tremendous blow at his face. He missed
his mark, however, and almost fell across
Mr. SEWARD'S body.
]sv this time ROBINSON had recovered,
lamped on the bed, and caught hold of the
assassin's arms. While he was thus at
tenipting to hold the assassin, the latter
struck Mr. Sf.WARD on the left side of the
lace, and then on the right side. The as
sassin then raised up, and he and ROBINSON
( . a me to the floor together. They both got
~ii to their feet, ROBINSON still keeping a
linn hold of him.
The assassin reached his left arm over
H I! .mxsovs shoulder and endevored to force ;
bini to the floor. Finding he could not han- j
die ROBINSON in that position, he dropped j
lis pistol which had been forced against |
! Mr. ROBINSON'S face in the hand which was !
• around his neck, caught hold of ROBINSON'S j
j right arm with his left hand and struck be- 1
I hind ROBINSON with the knife. They still j
1 continued to struggle for a few moments, j
I ROBINSON forcing him toward the door which j
I h IIS open, with the intention of throwing :
I him over the balusters.
When they had nearly reached the door j
j? Major Ai or sirs SEWARD entered the room. 1
1 ROBINSON called upon him to take the knife I
I out <>f the assassin's hand. Major SEWARD!
I immediately clinched the assassin. The lat-1
| tor then struck ROBINSON in the stomach,
I mocked him down, broke away from Major
I SKWAHD, and rushed down stairs.
I hiring t ,e scuffle, when he cannot say, j
j MI. ROBINSON received a wound quite serious j
some two inches in bredth, on the upper
I part of the right shoulder blade, another a j
j little lower down on the same side, and al
| so a slight one on the left shoulder.
While struggling \v : th the man near the
bedside, lie had seized the wrist of his right
I hand, in which was the dagger, and did
I ; release his hold until kmocked down by
I tin 1 assassin near the door, and after Major I
i -: w viin had come to his assistance.
I I ll.* returned to the room after lie found
I thut the assassin had escaped, and found
I thit the Secretary had got off the bed on
I • . the floor, dragging with him the bed
P rfithes, and was lying in a pool of blood.
1 l<i going to the Secretary he found no
| jiiil>e in his wrist, and stated to Miss SKW-
I . who had re-entered the room and asked
I it' ;i>-i father was dead, that he believed he
I ui- I Jut upon a second examination,
I lh>i!:NS"\ ascertained that his heart was
1 -till beating.
The Secretary then said : "I am not
I dead. Send for a police and a surgeon and
-e the house." He then placed the Sec
€i. t.!;y ti|ou the bed, telling him he must
3 ii..t talk. Mr. SEWARD did not speak after
m that.
Mr. HASKELL subsequently told Mr. ROKIN
■| - A that having been alarmed by the noise,
J he had started for the Secretary's room, and
3 was met <>n the stairway by the assassin,
3 and was wounded and thrust to one side.
| Mr. ROBINSON remained with Mr. SEWARD
1 until 11 o'clock the next morning, when he
I was removed to the Douglas Hospital.—

If man by the attendants of this institution,
J, and iiis condition is very favorable.

The report also states that Jeff Davis !
Hand family had joined Johnston at Hills

broken into on Sunday evening last, and a lot of
clothing and silver plate stolen. The theft is sup
posed to have been committed by some chaps that I
were about town collecting old umbrellas to mend.
The fact that they never returned those they got—
and some of ours were among the number—is sus
picious. They had been to the Judges in the after
noon. — Mooinshfirtj Republican.

and Scripture knowledge. The S. S. library should
be replenished so often, as to contain books ' both
new and old.' Let there be a perpetual advent of
•S. S. papers, which are leaves • for the healing ' of

FUNERAL OBSEQUIES OF PRESIDENT LINCOLN.
—Wednesday, 19th inst., the day appointed for the
funeral ceremonies of the murdered President, was j
suitably observed in this place, in accordance with
tlu- request of the authorities, and in accordance i
with the universal feeling of grief and sorrow of ,
our citizens. Business generally was suspended, j
and the mournful evidences of public woe freely ''
displayed. The bells of the churches were tolled,
and services held in the Presbyterian Church,
commencing at I' 2m. Appropriate remarks were !
made by Rev. Mr. WOOD of the Methodist Church,
lte\. Mr. DOUGLASS of the Episcopal Church, and
Rev. Mr. HARRIS, pastor of the Presbyterian
Church.
In common with the whole nation, the citizens
ot this place, united in a heart-felt expression of
their sense of the national bereavement, and joined
in invoking the Divine protection for the country.
WE were pained to learn that in the
late sanguinary battles before Petersburg, result
ing the capture of Richmond, Capt. DANIEL MINIEK
of Sheshequiu, Pa., was among the killed. Mr.
MINIEK had served iu the early part of the war its
Lieutenant in a Pennsylvania regiment, was iu
battles of Chiekahominy, resigned ufter a pro
tracted illness, re-enlisted at Syracuse in a N. Y.
Regiment, was made Captain and died bravely in
defense of his country's honor and unity. He
was about 30 years of age. Waverly Advocate.
AN EXAMPLE WORTHY OF IMITATION.—I at
tended meeting in the North Warren Presbyterian
< Lurch last Sabbath, (April 16,) and after the usu
al Sabbath service was over, I was allowed the
privilege to present the claims of the U. S. Chris
tian Commission upon the christian's heart, and in
doing so I had occasion to speak of the wants of
our sick and suffering soldiers. I mentioned also
the blessed results upon them not only physically
but spiritually, as I had witnessed during the past
winter while laboring among them.
At the close of the service it was proposed to
I ■
| take up a contribution, which was cordially re
sponded too, and the avails, which I hereby ac
knowledge the receipt of, amounted to Seventy
Dollars. Said S7O to be applied for the benefit of
the soldiers, through the U. S. Christian Commis
sion. The congregation was very small. Go and
do likewise. Yours, respectfully,
E. P. COBURN.

JOHN \\ ATERS, A private in Company B,
l 210 th Regiment, P. V., died before Petersburg,
Va., in January last, and was in the thirty-fifth
i year of his age. He was of Welsh parentage, and
j was born in the city of New Y'ork. He was re
moved to this county sometime afterwards, and re
j mained a citizen of Burlington twp., up to the
time of his enlistment in the Union Army, where
his respected parents, in a good old age, and his
brothers and sisters, still reside.
The deceased was remarkable for his industry,
his probity, his sobriety, his quiet, unassuming,
peaceful deportment, and was exemplary, to the
last degree, in all the relations of life, not having
an enemy in the world. By means of his great in
dustry and frugality, he had amassed a handsome
property, lor a man of his years and opportunities,
not one dollar ol which was acquired by question
able means. He took no advantage of other peo
ple's necessities to get gain, but earned, by honest
persevering labor, that which he has left to his re
latives, and good will, must come, of property
gained in this way. Would that society was blest
with more such men as JOHN WATERS was. His
life was worthy of all imitation, and. as if to glori
fy it yet more, he gave it to his country. Peace to
his ashes. ri

GUI ST'S GARDEN SE E RS~!
It is au established fact tbat a large proportion of the
Garden Seeds sold in the country are worthless or nearly
so. The reason is obvious. Seeds are left by the owners
with merchants to sell on commission, often but a.small
portion of them are sold, the remainder being returned,
repacked and sent out again the following year, and so
continuing until as a matter of course many of the seeds
are worthless. In order to get the best and most reli
able seeds I have bought a large stock of Hubert Buist.of
Philadelphia, a house whose reputation for selling fresh
and pure seeds is not surpassed by auy in the country ;
and who never send out any seeds ou commission, and
consequently not liable to accumulate old stock.
1 think a little reflection will convince any one of the
advantage of purchasing these seeds. 1 have many var
ieties not to be found any where els ein town. Also
Rutabaga, Beet and Carrot seed by the pound, and Peas
by the bushel.
