TUESDAY, APRIL 18, 1865.
Richard Cob den is no- more. England
has lost an eminent legislator and America
is deprived of a true and able friend. Mr.
Cobden may be said to have prematurely
passed away, at the age of sixty—nearly
all the Parliamentary leaders of public
opinion in England being considerably old
er. For example, Brougham and Strat
ford dr Rrdclutfe are eighty-seven,
Palmerston nearly eighty-one, Russell
seventy-three, Derbt and Grey sixty-six,
Lord Westbury sixty-five, and Bo wring,
Ellenborough, Henley, Pakikc-ton,
General Peel, Roebuck, Shaftesbury,
and Charles Wood, each older than Cob
den;
Bom in 1804, the son of a small former
in Sussex, Richard Cobdbn had the mis
fortune while yet a child to lose his father.
Taken charge of by his uncle, a wholesale
Manchester warehouseman in London, the
lad was trained to business in that esta
blishment. Steady and industrious, and
-fully np to his work, he became what is
called ,l commercial traveller” for the firm
at an unusually early age, and in this capa
city traversed nearly every county in Eng
land. Becoming acquainted with Manches
ter, he determined to settle there, and
about the age of twenty-five entered into
business there as partner in a printed cot
ton factory, bringing in as capital his tho
rough knowledge of business and the excel
lent personal connexion with traders which
he had made as a traveller. To extend the
business, he went abroad, visiting Egypt,
Greece, and Turkey, in 1834, and the United
States in 1835.- This foreign travel enabled
him to produce two pamphlets, which at
tracted much attention at the time—one
upon “ England, Ireland, and America,"
the other upon “Russia,” whose ambition
and power were more dreaded then than
now. After thus “fleshing his maiden
pen,” Mr, Cobdbn devoted Ms attention to
the practical part of Ms business, and made
a fortunate hit.by producing a new style of
printed fabrics, more tasteful and-elegant
ihan any supplied by Ms rivals in the trade.
He had noticed, also, while in the south and
east of that the inhabitants had a
greater predilection for bright and showy
colors than the Manchester manufactures
were aware of, and provided an article in
which black and Turkey-red gaily pre
dominated, wMch soon obtained a moaoply
in the foreign market,'and greatly advan
ced the prosperity of Ms house.
He was a prominent man, in 1835, when,
having assisted in founding the Manchester
Athenaeum, an institution devoted to the
cultivation of literature and science, he was
solicited to pronounce the opening address.
This was a remarkably able production,
and stamped Cobdbn as one of the most
popular orators of the time. He had regu
larly trained himself, at debating societies,
to the intellectual gladiatorship of public
Epeakiog, and, when the occasion Came,
was found to be a ready as well as a
well-informed orator. At the general
election of- 1837, he was an unsuccessful
candidate for the parliamentary repre
sentation of Stockport (a borough within
a few miles of Manchester), and made
a tour, immediately after, in France,
Belgium, and Switzerland. On Ms return
he broke ground in the Manchester Cham
ber of Commerce, in favor of Free Trade,
and joined Ms friend, Mr. Bright, in ori
ginating the Anti-Corn Law League, the
object of wMch .was to repeal all taxes
upon grain, and thereby cheapen food.
“The League,” as* it was called, soon ma
. tured into one of the most formidable po
litical organizations ever known. In 1841
Mr. Cobden was elected -M. P. for
Stockport, and at once commenced a
bold and vehement agitation, in and
out of Parliament, against the Corn
Laws. The sum of £50,000 was soon
raised, by subscription, to defray the ex
penses of “The League,” and among the
numerous speakers who 1 addressed the
public, in every part of England, Mr-
Cobdbn soon became most distinguished
above all, not less by the' extent and-pre
cision of Ms information than by Ms acute
ness of reasoning, Ms boldness of declama
tion, and Ms, popular style of oratory.
These qualities also gained him much in
fluence in the House of Commons, where
he frequently spoke in support of his object;
There ensued a ; great struggle between
the Peel Cabinet and the British people
on this question of the Corn Laws—actu
ally of cheap or dear food. Sir Robert
Peel, preferring peace to revolution,
.abandoned the Agricultural interest, which
had strongly supported Mm iu Ms pro
le Dged recent and succe ful contest for
office and yielding to what is called “ the
pressure from w thoUt brought in “an
Act to repeal the duties ou the importation
of Foreign Com." The landed interest,
which included most of the Aristocracy
of the British Empire, strongly re
sisted this measure, but Peel succeeded
in carrying it, and it received the
royal assent on June 26, 1846, the very
day on which, a few hours later, he was
beaten on an Irish measure by the combi
nation of the liberals of all shades of poli
tics in the House of Commons. He re
signed office, more popular at the time,
and thence until Ms sudden death from
an accident, than most statesmen when
gaining office and power. He had given
cheap food to the people, who lamented
when a mean party conspiracy drove their
benefactor out of office. He had sacrificed
Mmself to serve Ms country.
mhl3-2mfp
1865.
'When announcing Ms retirement, Sir
Robert Peel, in graceful and. eloquent
gave the main credit of the re
peal of the Corn Laws to “ the unadorned
eloquence” of Mr. Cobdeh, whose political
friends and admirers set on foot a subscrip
tion to remunerate Mm for his services and
sacrifices, (for his business had greatly suf
fered from his enforced withdrawal from
its personal superintendence,) and the large
sum of £70,000 was collected and presented
to him. ; Part of tMs was invested in the
purchase of. am estate in Sussex, including
the farm.on.which he had been born. There
wasQi'ipopuiar feeling that Mr. Cobber
ought to have office, as a Cabinet minister,
in the new admiMstration. But Lord
Johh Rtjssell, its head, was too much
of an Aristocrat to advance a farmer’s
son, who was twenty times more able,
eloquent, and powerful than Mmself, and
insulted the champion of Free Trade and
Cheap Bread by offering Mm a subordinate
situation in the Department of Trade. De
clining this, Mr. Cobden, whose health
had Buffered from his great overwork during
four successive years of political agitation,
went abroad again, and, visiting France,
Spain, Italy, Germany, Russia, and Swe
den, was received with great applause in
the principal cities and towns.
In 1847, during his absence, he was re
jected M. P. for Stockport, and also for
.he West Riding of Yorkshire, and made'
ais choice to sit for the latter place. In
1857, being a leading member of the Peace
Society, foe opposed Lord Palmebstoh’s
policy, wMch had involved England in a
contest with China, and a dissolution of
Parliament was the result. He had aban
doned all hope of being re-eleeted fbr,York
shire, and his friends started Mm for Hud
dersfield, where he was defeated, but im
mediately after, to his .own 'surprise and .
that of his friends, he was returned fof
Rochdale, partly through the influence of
Mr. B bight. About the .same time it-
Bichard Cobden,
PHILADELPHIA* THE!
was understood that Mr. ConDßtrhad tna
terially reduced his property by investing
largely in Illinois stock, and at a
quent period his losses were repaired by a
second subscription, chiefly among his
Manchester friends. He was in the United
States in the summer of 1859, when, the
Derby Ministry overthrown. Lord Pal
merston resumed office .as Premier. He
offered a seat in the Cabinet Ao Mr Cobden
who declined it, but. true to his political
faith, gave his general ‘‘’Support to the
Palmerston Ministry. • 1
In 1860-61, when Napoleon declared
himself in favor of Free Trade, and began
to relax the stringencies of the French ta
riff, he was met, halfway f>y Mr Glad
stone, the British minister offmance-.who
joined with Lord Pal in request
ing that Mr. Gobdi if would accept a con
fidential mission to arrange terms of an in
temational treaty under which French
wines and spirits could be exchanged fOT
British manufactures. The -newi system
appears to have v orked advantageously
for both countries, but still.vbecause he
was only a farmer's son. noteyfen the com
pliment of making him a Pjtivy -Coun
cillor, (which wot Id auth r ve his being
addressed as “ Rif ht Hon raile ) was
tendered to him on the part 01, his Sove
reign! ? :
Mr. Cobden’s politics were most liberal
The advocate of Free Trade ap
pears well adapted for such a <smptry< a
England) he was in favor of theballot- of
the extension of the suffrage, of shoirter
Parliaments, ,of retrenchment, toleration
and reform. Latterly, his health being im
paired and a bronchial complaint having
so much affected his voice that it was pain
ful and even dangerous for him to speak
frequently in public Mr Cobden rarely
spoke in the House of Commons or else
where. But bis full sympathy was with
the policy of President Lincoln ana the
Union, from the commencement Of the jne
morable struggle now happily near-'its
close, and he expressed himself confldent
all through, in the justice of our "National
cause and in the certainty of its success, ;
Mr. Cobden was eminently a practical
man. His energy, ere his health failed,
was remarkable, ah.d it was this, with his
strong eloquence and skilful way of using
facts, that obtained the great triumph
which was the crowning glory of Peel's
administration. In Mm this country has
lost a true friend, but he survived to know
that our cause, which he loved so well,
was on the eve of final success.
Cardinal Wiseman’s Sueeesser.
[From the Washington Chronicle. ]
According to custom the Catholic Hierarchy in
England have sent to the Pope the names of three
clergymen from whom Ms Holiness may seleet a
successor to the late Cardinal Wiseman. as Aroh
blshop of Westminster. The names are set down
as “worthy, more worthy, worthiest,” («dlo bus.
digmor, digmsaimun")'and It is believed that two
Qt the three, so nominated, are Dr. Clifford, Bishop
Of Bristol, and Dr. Ullathome, Bishop of Birming
ham. The aristooratio section of the Anglo Catho
lic Church is supposed to favor Bishop Clifford,
whoso brother Is amEnglish peer of ancient crea
tion. It Is supposed, also, that his appointment
would be acceptable to the British Government,
now on the friendliest terms with the Pope, not
alone because of his high family connexion, bat
bepause helsaqnletiat. who would discountenance
political agitation. But that numerousparty which
has more zeal than discretion infinitely prefers
Bishop Ullathome, a powerful controversialist, an
able speaker, an eloquent pteacher, and, above all, a
prelate or great energy and Immense working
power. The third person spoken of is Dr. Manning,
formerly Archdeacon in the English Protestant
Church, by far the best Catholic preacher In Lon
don, and editor of the Dublin Review-' a Catholic
quarterly, established about thirty .years ago bv
O'Connell and Dr. Wiseman, andnow. owned by
Mr. Ward, a wealthy and eocentrlo’Calhollc. Un
fortunately, Dr. Manning has more zeal than dis
cretion, and would probably keep hlkdlodese lirfFot
water, if appointed to the Arohlepisoopal Bee of -
Westminster. It is believed that Dr. Ullathome'
will be the man. - w.
There Is a rumor alto that Monslgnoro Talbot ■
(the Pope’s favorite chamberlain at Rome. and .
brother to Lord Talbot de Maiahlde. an. Irish noble
man), will be sent to reslue in England. In some

Cullen, Catholic Primate of Irelan will receive a

that the Pope has long intended to advance-Dr-

Jeff Davis Heard from—His Last Pro-
elnmatloß.
Danville, Ya, April s.—The Goneral-in.oMet
found It necessary co 'make such movements of-hls
troopß as to uncover the capital It would ba un
wife to conceal tbe morarana material injury to our
oaure resulting from the occupation of our oapltal
by the enemy. It Is equally unwise and unworthy
oi ns to allow our own energies to falter and our
efforts to become relaxed under adverses, however
calamitous they maybe. For many months the
largest and finest army of the Confederacy, under
command of a leader whose presence inspires
equal confidence in the troops and the people,
has been greatly trammeled by the necessity
of keeping constant watch over the approaches
to the capital, and has thuß been forced to
forego more than one opportunity for pro
mising enterprise. It Is for hs, my countrymen,
to snow by our bearing under reverses how wretched
has been the self-deception of those who Vhave -be
lieved ns less able- to endure misfortune with fora
ttnie than to encounter dangers with courage.
We have now entered upon a new phase of the
struggle. Relieved from the neoesslty of guarding
particular points, onr army will be free t» move
from point to point to strike the enemy in detail far
frqmhlsbase. Let us but will It and we are free.
Animated by that confidence In spirit and fortitude
which never yet failed me, I announce to you, fel
low-countrymen, that It Is my purpose to maintain
yonr cause with my whole heart and soul: that I
will never concent to abandon to the enemy one foot
of the soil of any one of the States of the Confede
racy. That Virginia—noble State—whose anolent
renown has been eclipsed by her sttll more glorious
recent history; whose bosom has been bared to
receive tbe main shock of this war : whose sods
and daughters have exhibited heroism so sublime as
to render her illustrious. In all time to oome—thatr

Additional Particulars or tbe Assassi
nation or tbe President.
From the 'correspondence of the New York Herald
we take : the following exceedingly Interesting de
tails of the frightful crime whloh has overshadowed
the whole land with gloom:
STATEMENT OF HAJOB RATHBCN.,
• .The President’s box at Ford’s Theatre Is a double
one, or what ordinarily constitutes two boxes, In the
second tier, at the right of the stage. When occupied
by the Presidential party the separating partition
Is removed, and the two. are thus throwmlnto one.
Thfe box Is entered from a narrow, dark hallway,
Which in.turn la separated from the uress-oircle by a
smell door. j The examination of the premises dis
closes the faet that the assassin had fully and delibe
rately prepared and arranged them for Ms diabolical
purpose previous to the assembling ol the audience.
"P l ®®® “(board one Inch thick, six inches wide, and
about three feet in length served for a'bar, one end
1 “d-ng placed In an Indentation exCaVated In tho
P u . r ,P oSe > about four feet from the
Kv.™, tb 2. °?'®l the molding or the
door panel, a few laches higher than the end in the
wall, so that It would- be impossible to jar it out of
knocking on the door on the outside. The
thua guarded against intrusion by
any of the audience, next proceeded to prepare a
means of observing the-position of the parties Inside
“J small bit he bored a hide
in the door panel, which he afterwards reamed out
wiih his knife,- so as to leave It little larger than a
buckshot on the. inside, while it was sufficiently
large on the outside in the dark entry for him to
place his eje against -with convenience, and see tho
pOßltlcn occupied by the President and his friends.
Both box doors were perforated’in like manner."
But there were-spring looks on each of these doors,
and it was bhroly possible that they might be
lsbtened To provide against such an emergency'
the screws whlyh listen the bolt-hasps to the wood
had been partially withdrawn, andleitso that while
- they wunid hoid the hasps to the wood they " would "
afford liiile or no resistance to a firm pressure upon ■
the door from the outside. 1
DELIBERATE PBEPASATIOKS FOR THE MCSDHB
Having thus provided for a sure and easy entrance
ro the box, .the next business was tu insure a clear .
£n(T to the iooaluy of thqj^j
cupled by Mr. Lincoln was found In the front corner
ol the box farthest "from the stage. Another, for v
Mrs. Lincoln, a little .more remote from the front,
while tbe other chairs and a sofa were all plaoed-on
the side hearest the stage, leaving the centre of the
spacious box clear for the .bloody operation* of the
actor. ' These preparations were neither conceived
by a maddened brain, designed by a fool, nor exe
cuted by a drunkard. They bear most unmistaka
ble evidence of genius, industry, and perseverance
in the perfect accomplishment-of a deliberate mur
dei*. ■ : ■ •
At a few minutes past eight In the" evening tbe
President and Mrs. Lincoln called at the residence
of Senator Harris, corner of Fifteenth andH streots,
where .they took Miss Clara Harris and Major Henry
R. Ratbbnn, United States Army, Into their car-
prcceeded to the theatre. Shortly after
they entered the fatal box the President seated him
self -In the chair' designed for him by the assassin
Mrs. Lincoln took one near him, Miss Harris the
one at tho opposite corner, fronting the audience,
and Major Ratbbnnseated himself upon the sofa, a
lew feet behind Miss Harris. There were no other
perscnß in the box, and no one entered or left it until
abontthe time of the assassination. Charles Forbes,
the personal attendant of the President, had been
told by Mrs. Lincoln to remain near the box, as he
might be wanted. The President seemed well,
though somewhat sad, and spoke very, little. He
v arose once during the performance, went to the door
> of the box. pnton his overcoat, and then returned to
..his chair and sat down.
• > The deed was perpetrated during tbe second scene
of the third act of the pieoe, by some man who must
have approached stealthily and unseen through the
i ark passage at the baok of the box. Major Rath
bun was not aware of his presence Mil hearing the
report of a pistol, and, looking round, saw theffish,
and dimly through the smoke the form of a man in
tbe box, not more than six feet from the President.
As the Major sprang towards him he heard him
shriek some word like “ freedom.” He then seized
him. The assassin shook loose from the officer’s
grasp, and at the Same time niadea violent thrust at
his left breast with the knife which he held in his
hand. Major Rathbun caught the blow on his left
aim, near the" shoulder, and at once sprang
. for him again, but only succeeded In /grasp
ing his clothing, which he partly tore from
him as he leaped from the box to the stage.
The Major then cried bnt “Stop that man,’’
and, supposing it Impossible for him to escape
through the crowd below, rushed back to the' Presi
dent and to the aid of Mrs. Lincoln, who, for the
first time realizing what had ooenrred, was shriek
ing for help. The President had not changed his
fositlon, except that his eyes were elosed and his
ead slightly bent forward. Major Rathbun saw at
a,glance that he Wpa mortally wounded. He went
to the-dtor of the box for the purpose of proourlog
medical aid, and, to Ms astonishment, found the
outer door at theend of thedark hail from whlohthe
boxes are entered firmly barred on the Inside with a
piece or wood wedged across about four feet from
the floor, so that those outside who were knocking
for admission could not get in. Tearing away the
fastenings, and passing in one or two persons who
represented themßelves as surgeoßß, he requested
Capt. Crawford to prevent all other persons from"
entering the box, and begged the audience to dis
perse. -
"When the surgeons had concluded their examina
tions. It was decided to remove the body from the
theatre, and accordingly the whole party, Including
Major Rathbun, who had charge ,of Mrs. Lincoln,
proceeded to a house opposite. It wax now found
that the Major was seriously wounded, and becom
ing quite faint from loss ol blood. Ho waß Senthome
" by his surgeon. -
THE RABIDITY OF THE ABSASSIH’S HOVBHBNTB.
. The whole time occupied from the firing or the
pistol In the box to the leaping upon the stage was
-not over thirty seconds. ThePresldentnever spoke
or unclosed his eyes from this time until Ms death
The clothing of Major Rathbun and* the drestof
Miss Harris were bespattered with blood from the
wonnd of the Major. The wound of the President
did not bleed at all.
MISS ifApR A KKBHB’B STAT^WBHT.
Mlss.Keene wai behind the scenes at the precise
time of the shooting. She was on.ttf northern side
of-the iheatref,whlle tfiePresidCnt’Shox Was on the
sonthern side; Miss Keene’s position was near the
prompter’s desk; but as that official was absent she
placed herself nekr tbe point where Ute oonld more
readily enter. She was at the time expecting to see
the -ingress of Mr. Spear, whose pan was at hand;
and prepared herselt to break his fall as he entered
in a drunken scene; bnt instead of receiving Mr.
Spear Mr. Booth pushed his way Bnddenly through
the side scene, striking Miss Keene on the hand with
Ms own, in wMcb he held the dagger. She for a se
cond looked at him and saw it was another person
fiom the one she expected, and instantaneously heard
the cry that the President was shot The cry was
spontaneous among the audience, and many of them
were making tor the stage. She then knew some
thing was ooeurring. Miss Keene west to the front
of the stage, and said, “ For God’s Bake have pre
sence or mind and keep yonr places, and all wilt be
well.” "While all- seemed willing to detect the per
petrator of the greatdime, bnt one made a move to
this end. Scarcely had the perpetrator of the crime
jumped to the stage than he was followed by Mr.
Stewart. As Booth crossed the stage he met and
struck at tho 'carpenter with the dagger he neld,.
and instantly made his exit to the rear of the
theatre, where his horse was In readiness, and)
thence made his escape. Miss Keene, after mo
mentarily arresting the panic In the audience,
heard the cry of Miss Harris, saying, “ Miss Keene,
bring some water.” Miss Keene, responding to
the oall, made her way, whloh was rather circuitous,
through the dress circle to the President’s box, and
got there a few moments after the occurrence.
There she saw Mrs. Lincoln, In the agony of a de
voted wife," uttering the most piteous cries. Miss
Keene attempted to pacify her, at the same time
offering the good offices ln her power; but she was
convinced from her observation that human help
was in vain,
Abrabam Atncoln’s Place In History.
If the influence of the triumph of popular Insti
tutions in onr recent Btruggle prove so greatover
the future destiny of all European nations as we ex
pect it Lincoln will stand in the world’s
history, and receive Its judgment, as the type man
of a new dynasty of nation-rulers—not for this
country alone, but for the whole civilized portion of
the human family. He will take his place In a
sphere far higher than that aooorded to any mere
conqueror; and, Indeed, without speaking pro
fanely, we may well say that, since the foundation
of the Chistrian era, no more remarkable or
pregnant passages or the world’s history have'
been nnfolded than those of which Mr. Lin
coln on this continent has been the cen
tral figure and controlling lnluenoe. It is by
this measurement he will be judged, and by this
standard will hls place be assigned to him. Under
hls rule our self-governing experiment has become,.
within the paßt lour years, a demonstration of uni
versal significance that the best and strongest rule
for every Intelligent people Is a government to be
oreated by the popular will, and choosing tor Itself
the representative instrument who is to carry out
Its purposes. Four years ago it appeared an even
chance whether Europe, for the next century at
least, should gravitate towards democracy or Oassar
ism. Louis Napoleon was weak enough to hope
the latter; and has destroyed himself by the fouy
of giving his hope expression. The triumph of the
democratic principle over the aristooratlo In our
recent contest Is an assurance that time has re
volved this old earth on whioh we live Into a new
and perhaps happier—perhaps sadder— era;'and
Jefferson Davis, with hls subordinate conspirators,
flying from their capital before the armed hosts of
the nation which had elected and re-elected Abra
ham Lincoln, may be regarded as a transfiguration
of imperialism with its satellite aristocracies,
throwing down the fragments of a broken sceptre
at the feet of onr American—the democratic—princi
ple of self-rnle. ■-
The patriarchal system of government was, we
may presume, as simple as the lives of those over
whom It was exorcised, and has left bnt very imper
fect traces of its existence. Of the theooratlc or
priestly form of government we have had types In
the characters of Moses and Mohammed—both
Sowerful and original men, and true ,repreßenta
ves of the ambltlonß, needs, and poetically super
stitious temperaments of the nations they respec
tively ruled. 'With Rome came the full develop
ment of the Imperial system, based on military sub
jugation and absorption; the system which Louis
Napoleon believes IB about being revived—wholly
oblivious, apparently.that hls volume of moody and
fantastlo dreams Is printed en a steam, press, and
not copied painfully from waxen tablets, as were
the memoirs of Julius Caesar, by the Btylus of a
single copyist. With the Bpread of Catholicity
came’ the feudal system, of whlah Charle
magne was bnt an accident, and by no means
the creator—that system having been a necessity
for the perpetuation of Church property and- the
protection of the non-belligerent religious orders.
With the discovery of printing, immediately fol
lowed by Luther’s lnsnrrectlonary upheaval in the
religious world, commenced the mental and moral
preparation of mankind tor the acceptance or popu
lar institutions, and the right of self-government
—ln a word, for the democratic principle of whioh
Cromwell was the first forcible expression, and-
Napoleon Bonaparte, In hls earlier trlamphs
over kings and empires, the armed and Irre
sistible assertion. False to the Ideas which
can Bed hls elevation, this Napoleon was hurled
from the throne he sought to build on the ruins
and with the materials of prostrate popular'llberty;
and It was thus reserved by an All-wise Providence
tor this latest found of the continents of onr earth ',
to give the first successful example or that truly
popular system of government—soon to be in con
trol of all nationalities—which had the moral sub
limity and praotleal virtues of George Washington
to guide It through its experimental stage, audthe
perhaps externally grotesque, bnt morally magnifi
cent, figure of Abraham Lincoln to be both its re
presentative and martyr in the present supreme
moment of its permanent crowning.
This estimate of the place Inevitably to be occu
pied m tbe world’s history by the great National
Chief whose loss we mourn may not prove either a
ramlllar or pleasant idea for the mere partisans of
tho present day to contemplate; bnt It will be round
none the less a true and philosophical estimate. In
the retrospective glance of history the “ accidents,”
as they are called, of hls elevation will all have
:aded out of sight; and the pen or the historian will
only chronicle some snch records as the following -
From the very humblest position In a family sub
sisting by agricultural labor, and hltnßelr tolling
(or dally bread In hls early yonth, this extraordina
ry man, by the gilts of self-ednoatlon, absolute ho
t eety of purpose, perfect sympathy with the popu
lar heart and great natural endowments, first rose
to eminence as a lawyer; then graduated In Con
gress; was next heard of as the powerful though
ursupcesslul rival -for national|Senatorlal honors or
the Democratic candidate for the Presidency, over
whom he subsequently triumphed In i 860; and four
FOUE CENTS.

and, fa-their general summing up of

feverhh being, and In their pictures of those events
wherein the clamorous partisans of the bast wee?
were prone to urge that Mr. Lincoln had been but
a passive fasti ument, his name and figure will bo

as the chief impelling power and central organizer
too vast results which eannot rail to follow-oar
vindication of the popular form of government.

And nations stand aghast and mute

And, bowing o’er our martyr’B grave,

But who shall stand before the power
That’s gathering from the nation’s grief,
While, stricken low in triumph’s hour,
We mourn our loved, our father chief 1
How wIU ear heroes hear the blowi
Or how restrain their bursting wrath ?
As onward to the Gulf they go,

O, guide our vengeance! Thon to whom
The power of wrath alone belongs! -

With sickening earnage right onr wrongs.

To save the-weak, the driven foe,

The fiends—o’ermatohfag fiends below—

Thera was very little business done at the stock
hoard yesterday* the members haying adjourned be
fore noon to accept, the invitation of the Union League
to a meeting at Concert Hall, in reference to the great
national bereavement sustained in the assassination of
President Lincoln. The report of the proceedings of
that meeting will be found under the appropriate head
in another part of our paper. There wafi no disposi
tion manifested during any part of the day to enter inite
speculative operations of any kind, and the transac
tion! that were made were ehledy to meet outstanding
engagements.
Business is still in suspense, and it is not supposed
that any revival will take place for some days to coma
The most remarkable feature of the markets yesterday
was the tell in gold from the high figure it reached
upon Saturday, Sales ware said to have been made on
that day in Hew Tork afc«l66. At 10 A. H yesterday the
Tate was 145. At 11 A. M. it declined to 150 H; Li If it
was at 149; IP. M, 1483£; and at4P. JUL it stood at 147
@149. iThcre were seme few sates of Government loins
at IC6# for the 6- 20s, -and 93 for the 10-40 s. State Se im
proved a shade, selling at 39 The war loan 6s were
steady at 100. Hew city 6s rose %> with sales at 90.
The only sals of company bonds was second mortgage
Pennsylvania Bailroad at 97. The share list was very
quiet. Beading sold up t 044, a rise of Kojl Friday’s
figure. Pennsylvania Railroad sold at 68%, and Cam
den and Amboy at IS9&—-a decline of % Catawisaa pre
ferred cold at 22, and common at 9. The coal mfoteg
and other low priced stocks were dull.
The Tremmry Department yw authorized by the last
Congress to substitute six per cent compound interest
notes for five per .cent, notes withdrawn from circula
tion. Soma forty millions of the test mentioned cur
rency, which has been received in subscription for
seven thirties, will not again be issued.
Bor drillers and engineers the rates of wages paid in
the Pennsylvania oil region vary from $2 to s2.6oper
day, with hoard and lodging. There is abundance of
labor in Petrolia at present. Good mechanics rate at
from $S to $5 per day, according to agreement. The cost
of putting down a well was at first barely one-fifth of
what it now Is. In 1860 the average (200 foet) did not
exceed -$1,600, including a small engine and derrick. In
)£66 it is about $7,600 for 600 feet, with more powerful
machinery. A company must now calculate -upon
.spending, at the lowest estimate, on the ground, $lO,OOO
mx fore getting a drop of the *re at patent medicine of the
Aborigines.
