The Recession of Georgia.
It is reported that Governor Brown, Of
Georgia, is . endeavoring to assemble a
State Convention to repeal the ordinance
of Secession, and thus to restore his State
to the Union. It has be&i demonstrated,
fortunately, that the perpetuity of the Fede
ral Government does not depend upon the
will of a few of its members, and that it
has ample power to repeal and nullify dis
union legislation. Few men will trouble
themselves further about the treasonable
acts which were adopted to overthrow the
authority of the United States, and the
Scheme to which we have referred is appa
rently another instance of, the devotion to
abstractions which formerly characterized
many Southern politicians. It can matter
little to ua whether any State authority in
Georgia does or does not repeal their
Secession ordinance, but if, for the ; ease
of their conscience, and for the pur
pose of making their State records ac
cord with the inexorable decrees of mili
tary necessity, they see proper to undo in
form what the nation has undone in fact,
we presume they can enjoy that' privilege.
It must be confessed that however light
ly we now consider the ordinance that pur
ported to carry the Southern States out of
the Union, they received the hearty sup
port of the mass of the. Southern people ;
and if they- stc disposed to pay equal re
spect to an act of recession, coupled with
such evidences of contrition as appropri-,
ately accompany confessions of wrong,
Governor Brown's project may be of some
real service in securing .future tranquility.
■We have brought Georgia back our way,
and intend to keep her fast to her moor
ings ; if her people will be better satisfied
by also bringing her hack their' way we
suppose there will be no serious objection
to such action.
Southern Sufferings.
• The South has suffered fearfully in the
present war, and not least among the losses
has been that of the destruction of crops
and the devastations committed by march
ing armies. The sustenance of their own
people must have heavily taxed the few
laborers left upon the land, and the con
stantly increasing demands of the non-pro-:
during soldiery must have nearly exhausted
their resources. • When they were reduced
almost to the point of starvation Sherman
and his conquering troops passed through
the length of their country, drawing sub
sistence from every place, and sending out
rangers in every direction. The page
now unfolding reveals a condition of piti
able distress. The very last and crowning
calamity is upon them. They are asking'
from their conquerors protection agaimi
themselves. The disorganized .and disor
ganizing troops of their own people,
whether returning home on parole from
the scenes of recent defeat or scattering
in search of safety, are eating their way
through the impoverished land. All that
has escaped the vigilance or been spared
by the mercy of the Union hosts, is being
seized and consumed by these straggling
rebel bands. The very means of sustain
ing life are wrung from the people by these
ruthless men. We are glad to notice that
our generals are doing all in their power to
. ameliorate the sufferings of these victims
of Treason.
Foreign Summary.
Tie latest intelligence from Europe is of
more than ordinary interest. News of the
surrender of Lee’s army had reached Eng-'
land, and even the Times confesses that
“the ,end has come at last, and the great
-—AmericahJVar-ia vtrtuallv-cloaed’L-lMnchl
praise is given- to tne army - wxucn- lee
commanded, and still higher to that under
Gen. Gbant. “ The Federal Army,” the
Times says, “ is entitled to rank among the
very first of military nations, and all at
tempts to'estaklish a Southern Confederacy
must he abandoned.” Reconstruction, on
: the very principle now being acted upon
■ by President Johnson, is strongly recom
mended, and, this done, we' are assured
that “ such Questions as the regeneration
„ of the currency, reform of the tariff, and
the management of the National debt, im
portant as they are, may appear insignifi
cant.” ■ ,
Mr. Gladstone has taken another stride
towards succession to the Premiership of
England, whenever vacant,—and there-is
an on dii that Lord Palmebston, as a pre
liminary to his resignation, will be called
up into the House of Lords. Though an
Englishman by birth, his peerage is Irish,
and does not give him a seat in the Upper
House. Hence, though he has been nearly
sixty years in Parliament, (he first
was elected M. P. for Newport, Isle of
Wight, in May, 1807), he hasalways satin
the House of Commons. In the event of his
obtaining a British peerage, the leadership
of the Commons would devolve upon Mr.
Gladstone, whose out-of doors popularity'
will bo increased by the fact that: his
“ Budget,” or financial statement, made on
April 37th shows a surplus of national -
revenue over expenditure to the amount of
Dearly $20,000,000, which enables him to
reduce the income 'tax (from sixpence to
four pence per pound sterling), the tax
upon tea and the duty upon fire insurance—
the last, indeed, being a most indefensible
impost upon prudence.
The death of the Grand Duke Nicholas,
commonly called the Cesarevitch, took
place at Nice on the 22d of April. Eldest
. son of the Czar, he was on the eve of a
marriage with the Princess Bagman of
Denmark, youngerisister of the Princess of
Wales. His betrothed, with her mother,
and the Czar, was with him when he died.
He completed his twenty-first'year last
September, and his next brother, the
Grand Duke Alexandeb, born on the 10th
March, 1845, succeeds him as heirhppa
rent to the throne of “ all the Ru3sias.”
It is reported tliat LEOFOLD, King of the
Belgians, whose recent visit' to his niece,
Queen Victobxa, , at Windsor, was pro
longed by illness, has been yet more seri
ously affected since Iris return to! Brussels.
He is the third oldest sovereign prince in
Europe, (the Landgrave of Hesse-Hom
boffrg, and the Prince de Rettss, being his
Seniors), and is now in his seventy-fifth
; year. At his time of life, attacks of illness .
may. be accepted as warnings; In July "
1331, when he was elected to the Throne
of Belgium, he was forty-one years old,
and in possession of £50,000 per annum,
granted to him by the British Parliament
in 1846, when he married the Princess
Cixablotte, of Wales, who died in the fol
lowing year. On becoming King,he resigned
this large pension on the condition that
there should be reserved Fis. right to re
sume it,-should he cease toVtoe : a" 'monarch,
and that there should be paid out’of it
an annual allowance adequate to maintain
Claremont in good condition “and to' pro
vide, annuities to ; old smryants who had
been of his wife’s, household. Claremont,
Which he has lent to the ex-Queen of the
French, his - second mother-in-law, is an
estate not -far from Windsor, a inarriage
gift from the British Parliament" to hi 3
first wife and himself. In' the event* of
Eing LEbroi.D’s death, he will be suc
ceeded by his oldest son, the Duke of
Brabant, now? thirty years old, whose
pnly; sister is Empress of Mexico
' , That desirable and responsible position,
the presidency of the Corps LCgislatif of
France,- vackht by the death of the Duke
DE Mobny, has been filled, not by the ap.
_ pointment of M. Thiers, as was expected
by somS but, by the nomination of Count
Walewskx, who is generally supposed to
be a Bon of 'Napoleon I. by a Polish lady,
from whom the surname is derived. Last
Thursday the Count was fifty-five years old.
In his twentieth year he went to London,
in the vain hope of interesting British
tlirco otkofclmnas without any assistance.
Soon after, entering the diplomatic service,
he was sent by M. Thiers ona special mis
sion to Egypt and Constantinople. Subse
quently M. Guizot, despatched him as
Minister Plenipotentiary to Buenos Ayres,,
from which he returned before the election
of President in 1848, and resolved to follow
the fortunes of Louis Napoleon. His de
votion was rewarded by his being sent as
Abassador successively to Florence, Na
ples, and Madrid. He was French Ambas
sador to England from 1851 to 1855, when
he was recalled, to become Minister of
Foreign Affairs, in place of M. Drtouyt? PE
l’Htjys, and, after having taken an active
part in the proceedings which preceded and
followed the war in the Crimea, signed the"
treaty of April, 1856, as President of the
Congress of Paris. lie continued Foreign
Minister until 1860, when he resigned in
consequence of a difference with Kapo
liEOH on Italian policy, ;but continned one
of the" Privy Council and Minister of
State, without a portfolio. He has been a’
Senator since April, 1855. The Count WA-.
lewski is an able, bold, active-minded
man, well versed in politics, somewhat
tinctured with literature, and personally
devoted to the astute personage who rules
France with the iron hand in the velvet
glOVe.

When the remains of our lamented I,in
corn passed through the town of York, in
this S tate, tire following incident took place,
as described by a correspondent:
While wo are taking In water tlie orowd open a,
passage from ike station, and a half-dozan ladles tn
black came through to the oars. Generals Towns*
end and McCallutn meet them, and In a moment a
.soldier brings down a large writer, around which is
a wreath or white roses, camellas, and the most deli
cate and fragrant exotlo3. In tko centre of the
wreath Is a flag, the bine field made of violets, the
stars of white violets, and the red stripes of gerani
ums, making one of the moßt beautiful natural pic
tures ever prepared for such an occasion; Thelaidies
of York sent It, and General McCallum broke oyer
his rules and allowed them to enter the sacred
car. They carried it to the coffin, and as the tears
chased one another down their fair cheeks, they left
It upon the cold bier. Not a word was spoken.
There were half*a dosen present who had gone in
with them, but no dry eyes eame out. The fra
grance from those violets seemed like incense from:
Heaven. A neat tribute, plain but coming from:
the heart, will weigh against the costly decorations
of the millionaire—a starry flag of violets laid upon
the corpse by the ladies of York. Old men, tottering
to their graves, with rain pattering upon;their bald
heads; 'wounded soldiers hobbling to the roadside
to show their love for Mm who sleeps before them;
old women sobbing as.though they had; lost their
firstborn; fair maidens brush away the tears, and
men hold up their little ones to sea the car that con
tains the remains of the people’s friend. ‘Ha was
ornoffied for ns!’ exclaimed.an .aged colored mam,
hut the shrill whistle sounds, and we leave a scene
that can never be forgotten by those who witnessed
It'.” : ' '■
Among-the spectators of this thrilling
scene, hands in pocket, and hat sat on the
side of his heady was the' ex-Attorney Ge
neral of the tJnited States, who has his re
sidence in York, and who doubtless re
garded it with the same feelings he exhi
bited when-called upon by the soldiers to
show the American flag some months
ago. York, although the residence of
some of the most patriotic people in
the Commonwealth, boasts other dis
tinguished characters beside the illus
trious law; officer (of James Buchanan.
Among its citizens is a poet—one who adds
to his professional labors a certain degree
of literary, ambition, and has acquired the
applause of the critics-and cormoiseurs of
his party. He is so excellent a rhymester
that one of his effusions completely capti
vated the sympathizing leaders in York, and
threw those who have been translated to
Philadelphia, including, doubtless, the
“ retired statesman” of- Chestnut Hill,'into
' readers a taste of this exquisite performance
we copy two of three verses, which are
thus introduced:

The announcement of "President Lin
cdtsr’s , murder has: sent a thrill of horror
through the heart of Europe. In the Bri
tish Parliament, on the first of May, mo
tions for an address to Queen Victoria,
expressive of sorrow and indignation, and
praying for her to convey the like expres
sion of her own feeling to the Ame
rican nation, on the subject, were
to 'be respectively made-—in the Lords
by Earl Russet, n, as Foreign Secretary,'
and-in the Commons by. Lord Palmer
ston, head of the Government and leader
of the House. It was most probable that, to
indicate.hbyv completely all parties unite
in: this notion, these motions would be
seconded by the Earl of Derby in the
Lords, and by Mr. DiSRAELi.in the Com
mons, being the two Parliamentary leaders
of the Opposition. In the principal commer
cial cities and towns ofthe United Kingdom,
public meetings have been convened or
have been held, to express grief and horror
at the death of Mr.* Lincoln. The Ifalian
Chamber of Deputies, now in session* at
Florence, has voted an .address to the same
effect as that which ,will be agreed to in
England, and > the chamber in which they
assemble has been solemnly draped with
black. In other countries, of course, simi
lar manifestations will be made. Thus
angry passion ceases at the grave, sorrow
pervades all hearts, and

lETTEKS FROM « OCCASION At.”
Washington, May 7, 1805.
It is proposed to commemorate the next
4th of July by laying the corner-stone of
the monument over the National Cemetery
at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. This grand
Mausoleum, dedicated to , the brave men
who fell in the conflict which was so de
risive of the fortunes of the Rebellion,
is to be constructed by the eighteen'States
represented by their gallant sons' on that
bloody field;. Gettysburg was the only
battle fought in a free State, and the fund
to prepare and to perfect the Cemetery,
raised by the Commonwealths alluded to, is
being carefully and intelligently ' expend
ed. There is now nearly $90,000 in the
hands of the trustees. What better
way to celebrate the anniversary of
American Independence than by an im
posing consecration of the heroes who, by
their valor and their sacrifices, made the
4tli of July, 1800, a day forever to be re
membered for the universal; joy that thrilled
a great people, who that same day felt
they had just been delivered from the rava
ges of the remorseless rebel invaders ? The
graves of the illustrious dead are marked
by their names, all-but twelve hundred un
knowns ! Governor Curtin is how in
Washington, and heartily approves .this
suggestion, and there is no good reason
why it should hot be carried into effect.
In view of the contemplated reduction of
the whole military establishment, inclu
ding a great part of the armies in thA
field, and the machinery of provost marshals
under the now abandoned draft system, I
Jearn that it is intended to send the regi
ments who are to be* disbanded to the
States in which they were raised, and as
faT as possible to their immediate, localities,
there to be mustered out and paid off. This
admirable arrangement will be hailed with
satisfaction by our soldiers and their friends.

Washington, May 8, 1865.
When the testimony before the military
court to which the President has committed
the trial of the men and women concerned
in the assassination of Mr; Lincoln and the
attempted murder of Mr. Seward is laid
before the people, the first emotion will be
that of surprise that any objection should
have been raised to this mo de.of proceed
ing. - But the people will feel gratified and
grateful that President Johnson, conscious
of the lamentations of the-whole civilized
world, of the almost irreparable loss sus
tained by his' countrymen, and of the ne
cessity of making- such an example of
these savage criminals as will stand
an awful 'admonition through coming
ages, should have, summoned to his
,side : the most courageous .and .conscien
tious men in ferreting out this most horri
ble mystery. I;lf^gierefbre,:,the, deed 'was.
which its authors will be exposed aqd pun
ished will be equally memorable) The
fiends engaged ill it were not fanatics, they
were the merest hirelings of slavery.. No
fanaticißmvknimated their bosoms. Enough
is known 'to establish the fact that they
worked for large sums, paid in hand, and
the plans they laid,: running, through
months, and implicating numbers, were a
compound of obedience to the superior in
tellects that actuated and governed them,
and of an eager and vigilant anxiety for their
own worthless -lives. It is already known
that before Booth shot the President men
were stationed to cut the telegraph wires,
and to open the gates along the roads upon
which lie fled, and even to provide refresh
ment for Ms horse, and doubtless the same
preparations were made for the baffled mur
derer who sought Mr.' Seward’s life, and
the assassins who laid in wait for other
public men. Nothing proves(this theory
more clearly than, the manner in which the
preparations at Ford’s Theatre were made,
showing not one hand or one brain, but
several, and it is stated that the' leap of
Booth from the box to the stage had'been re
hearsed. But we must await the publica
tion of the, details, which, if not at ,an
early, will certainly be made known to the ,
people at ; a. later day., .And now, in the
forefront of this trial, shall wc be told
by any man professing to be an American,
much less a kuman being, that onr Goiisti
tution prohibits a remedy under the military
necessity for a crime so heaven-offending ?

Harris, member of Congress from Southern Mary
land, was resumed to-day at 11 o’clock, before the
court-martial of which Major General Foster Is
president, and Major Wintfifop judge advooate.
The oonrt having been called to order by tho pre
sident, the accused read the following paper, which
he asked the court to hie:
“Me. President or the Oohmissioh : The
undersigned respectfully states to the commission
here that hejbas been advised by counsel sinoe cue
commencement of the trial, and since-he plead to .
the charges and specifications, thathe ought to have
made a lormal exception to the jurisdiction of the
tribunal to take cognisance of the: charge made
against him, and whloh he has been required to an
swer here. And he respectfully further suggests
that whilst he could hardly; by any views he might
be able to present In support of this exception,
Induce this honorable court to sustain the same In
the teeth of the various .decisions in support of the
jurlsclotion of similar tribunals ; iu like cases, and
■ to which decisions In support of the jurisdiction ’of
similar tribunals wouianatutaUy accord the highest
and Indeed .controlling respect, yet he te: advised
that the suggestions of want of jurisdiction made at
any time, in any manner, however informal, will,
for all ulterior purposesfbe equally available as If
the same had been made by formal plea, or In some
i other apt mode. The undersigned,: therefore, re
spectfully asks the benefit of the exception which
; he desires to be made part of the record taken by
him'to the jurisdiction of this* tribunal Theiun- ‘
derslgned respectfully further states that he has
been advised, and he-reßpectfnlly suggests,'that
neither of the two specifications to. tho charge
agalni t him show an oflehce embraced within either *
■ clause of the 56th article of war.: No such facts jare*
alleged as would, or could, if proved* amount to
such offence, or any such offence as Is made"
punishable ‘by or under such article ; and be
hopes that he may have the benefit of all exceptions
to.eaid specifications as if he had lufaot demurred
to the same and to each of them respectively. The
undersigned does not- ask permission at this stage
of the trial to be heard In support of theso excep
tions, but respectfully asks that this paper may be
received and made a part of the proceedings of ■the
cause, to avail hereafter In such manner and to
such extent as justice and right may require.
“Benj. G, Harris,” ,
The Judge Advocate said he had no objections to ’
the receipt of the paper, and.lt was accordingly
filed. v v - fj'c -i
: Mr. Crane, counsel for. tbe defence, demurred
against the specifications, remarking that there;
was no parUcular house named therein in which the
aceusedvis charged with..harboring the men. Mr.'
Crane, however, deferred pressing the point at the
present time. • ; - .v. v v .; -
The accused then offered as evidence General
Orders, No. 72, of the War Department, Riving
transportation to rebels and others to their homes.
Mr. Harris stated that his witnesses had not ar
rived, but it was Important that they should be here.
They -would probably arrive to-day,-but as they had
some sixty miles to travel he would astc the court
to grant them further timo.
The Judge Advocate remarked that he would
have no objection to adjourning until to-morrow, If
the accused would make the proper affidavits relar
tive to the witnesses. The accused having filedthe
proper affidavits, the court adjoured until fo-mor

BEMIHISOBHOBS OP THE : liAWYEB-LlffE OP -THE
DATE PRKSrpBKT~HIS FORMER RESIDENCE BE-
SIEGED BY CURIOSITY HUNTERS,
The' Springfield correspondent of the OUloage
Tribune, writlDg on the 4th, speaks’of the scales in
the city after the funeral. The thousand's or stran
gers, after viewing the body and accompanying it to
the cemetery, occupied themselves in strolling about
the city and talking with residents' relative to Mr.
Lincoln's family history. The house in whJoh Mr,’
Lincoln lived before his removal to Washington
was thrown open to the public, and was visited by
thousands, It is a plain two-story woodon house, or
a tolerably respectable exterior, and is about the
kind of residence that, in a place the size of Spring,
hold, would be occupied by a well-to-do meohanic.
The rooms were arranged exaotly as they were
when Mr. Lincoln left them, and the house itself
was put Into deepmourning.
As everything connected with the deceased Presi
dent is a matter of interest, the correspondent
transcribes literally the following paper, which Is
in Mr. Lincoln’s handwriting, and which Is now In
possession of Ms old law partner, Mr, Herndon :-' j
“legislation and adjudication must follow,’ and
conform to, the progress of society.
“The progress of society now begins to produce
ca sos of the transfer, for debts, of the entire property
of railroad corporations; and to enable transferees
to use and enjoy the transferred property, legislation
and adjudication begins to be necessary. =
'< Shall this Olaas of legislation, just now begin*
nirg with us, bo general or special't . .
" Section ten of . our Constitution requires- that
It should be general, if possible. (Bead the
seotiob.) - . - -
“ Special legislation always trenches upon the
judicial department; and, in so far, violates section
two of the Constitution. (Bead it.) ’ . i
“Just reasoning policy—is in favor of general
legislation—else the legislation will be loaded down
with the investigation of special oases—work
which the courts ought: to. perform,and oanperform
much more perfectly. How can the Legislature
rightly decide thefaots in dispute between P. & B,
ands. C. Co. 1 • ■ • ' ■ ■
“ It is said that, under a general law, whenever a
B. B. Co. gets tired :of its ,debts, it may transfer
iraudulently, to get rid of them-——
So they may—somaylndlvidnals; and which—,
the Legislature or the courts—is best suited to try
the question of fraud in either case 1 >- » ,
“It is said if a. purchaser has acquired legal,
rights, let Mm not bp robbed of them; but if he
needs iegislation, let him submit to just terms' to';
obtain it——' • •, •
i'fLet him, say we, have general law to advance 1
(guarded in every possible way against fraud); so
that when ho acquires a legal right, he will have no)
occasion to wait for additional legislation■■— and ?
it he has practiced fraud let tho courts so decide.” i
On the outside of this paper, written in panoil,are <
the following: - - ,:t

Of course, the curiosity hunters were present in
force, and everything around his old residence that'
could be taken, was eagerly snatched up and borne
away as a trophy. Were It hot that guards were -
distributed all .over the premises, the entire house
would have boon stripped, and ,even thg-fences
would have been wMttled up and'oarried.pfl' pleoe

The Defeat of Eee.
In tailing from the Richmond correspondence of
the London Times the following extract, we do so
for the purpose of marking most emphatically the
way In whloh the English. "Thunderer" to dis
posed continually to under-value our successes, and
to depreciate ouf generals. After we have almost
Concluded a war welhnlgh unexampled in Its bit
terness and In the size of the armies engaged in it,
and the talents of the generals opposed to ns, It
thus disposes of the question, through; Its corres
pondent :, “If Sheridan had been able to get across
the swollen James river some lew days since the
end would have come-somb forty or fifty days
earlier.”
I believe that the ; failure thus far of the insur
rection may be attributed to three principal oauses.
First, and most materially, to the failure of John
ston and the Western army to keep Sherman out
of Atlanta In the same manner as Lee and the
Eastern army kept Grant out of Petersburg and
Richmond, secondly. To the imbecility of the Con
federate House of Congress. Thirdly, and finally;
to the inherent ■ weakness, of President Davis*
Government; and to the Inability or indisposition
evinced by him or General 1 Lee to assume,
at any risk, the dictatorial powers whloha jeal
ous and short-sighted Congress deified to either, but
which are alone adapted to the successful manage
ment of revolutions. Reserving Borne further
reflections upon the philosophy of this revolution
for a future occasion, I desire at once to state that,
without In The least undervaluing the admirable
tenacity offfrant, the eager Impulsive earnestness
of Sherman, the soldierly qualities of Meade, and
■the valor generally of the Federal armies, ft Is my de
liberate oonvlotlon that Lee has been defeated more
- from the rear than trouf the front, and that nothing
-but'the possession of the very highest personal at
tributes by its commander has averted, from his
army the crashing blow which, according to all
human foresight, ought to have overtaken tt seme
six months sooner. I may here mention that if
Geherar Sheridan had been able some few weeks
ago to get across the Bwollen James river, between
Lynchburg and Richmond, and to swoop down
upon the: Danville Railroad, he would probably
have met’With little or no opposition, and that tho
end would have come acme forty or fifty days
earlier; ■ ■ ■
Where Is Jeff Davis?
This question continues to be asked, and the quid
nuncs have already given it twenty answers. AU
that is thus far known of him is contained In the
following budget of rumors:
“At Key West, on the Ist Inst., there was a ru
mor that he was making for the Florida coast with
a view to csoape In a small vessel to Cuba. Paroled
prisonersof the rebel army, who were at Greensboro
on the I6th ult., say on the 26th Davis left Charlotte
bound for Texas, escorted by about three thousand
cavalry under Gen. Echols and’BasiiDako. The men
were mostly Kentuckians ana Texans, Davis Is said
to have made a Bpeech In Charlotte on leaving, in
which he promised to have a larger army In the field
than ever before vety'Boon. Daring the time he re
mained in Danville he liquidated a few of the rebel
debts, paying out speole for that purpose. On ar
riving In Greensboro, however, he refused to part
with a single dollar. He slept In a railroad car,
and none of the Inhabitants Bhowed him any atten
tion. The only member of his Cabinet to whom
they were civil was Mr. Trenholm, Secretary of the
rebel Treasury. The oltizens of Greensboro even
relused to lend Jeff a mattress to sleep on.”

"Wo paid a visit to the Soldiers’ National Ceme
tery a few days ago, and give the following as the re
sult of our observations. The magnitude of this
wort, arid the advantages likely to accrue from it
to this community do not seem to be appreciated
by our citizens. Away from home a more pro
per estimate Is placed, upon this noble enter
prise, as Is evidenced from, the fact that hundreds
and thousands of persons have visited the spot, and
will continue to visit It years to come, to pay their
respects to the honored dead who sleep their last
sleep there, and to recall to mind the greatest battl6,
of the rebellion, Tbe general management of the
work is In the ; hands of David Wills, Esq,,
of this - place, President of the Associa
tlon, with Mr. Daniel K. Snyder acting
as foreman on the grounds. The Improvements are
being pushed forward with the greatest energy, and
may reach a point of completion daring the summer,
W e understand that upwards of sixty laborers are,
now employed In the various departments; with still
room for more IT they could be procured. The sub-:
stantial granite wall, extending along the west
side is completed, with the exception of the co
ping, TMb wall, for finish and compactness,, chal
lenges the admiration of all. The heavy Iron fence,
extending irom ; the granite wall on the west to
Evergreen Cemetery on the south, Is completed,
and presents a fine appearance.. The iron railing
dividing the National Cemetery from Evergreen, is;
also finished. It is constructed of gas,pipe and
metal posts, and Is to-be lined with , hedge
shrnbbery. The gateway has just been com
pleted, and Is said to, be. one of the’finest en
trances In. the State; The.most striking feature,
about It is the sixmasslvelronposts, three of which
are placed at either side. Upon each of the.two
principal posts is perched the : American eagle.

is also inscribed in raised letters the names
of each State, whose sons are burled within
the enclosure. The principal' avenue is un
dergoing macadiinization, and the trees and
shrubbery are being planted, each one being set and
arranged strictly in accordance with the plot. We
understand that about ninety-live different hinds of
trees have been selected for this purpose, consisting
of the choicest varieties, numbering In ail about
one, thousand trees. These trees have been
selected, and are furnished through the agehoy
of one o! the most successful and energetic
nurserymra -in the State, The contractors for set
ting the head stones have commenced the wort, and
from present indications are making a complete
job of It, *The material for .tiro national inonu

be commenced during the summer; It is to stand In
a, central position on the summit, and will bo a
beautiful piece of .work. The contract for Its Con
struction, we believe,'has not yet' been given Out,
The natural beauty of the location of this cemetery,
we believe, is unrivalled anywhere, while art is be
stowing its energies upon it with lavish hand. Add
to this the historic- interest associated with it, and
America can produce no spot around which ■ so

following:

Governor, afterwards Senator Hicks, was the
loyal, energetic Governor of Maryland whopre
served that State from the toils of the secession
conspiracy, when It was in the greatest danger of
being enveloped In them. He died last February,
in Washington. .
This brutal, disgusting act ; this dishonoring of a
patriot’s dust Is buta natural out-cropping.from the
same foul treason that has bred assassination and
wholesale murder of captives.

arrived off this point this morning.
THE SENSATION CREATED BY THE MURDER.
Tho news "by the Nova Scotian of the assassina
tion of Mr. Lincoln was published throughout Eng
land on the 28th of April, and created a most pro
found sensation. The strongest feelings of sym
pathy; Indignation, and horror were universally
expressed, and those who sympathized with the
cause of the South evinced quite as much indigna
tion as the warmest friends of the, North. In all
places It was the all-pervading toplo,and caused
almost a total suspension of business, particularly
In Liverpool and Manchester. .
ADDBEBB JfROM MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT.
There,was onlya day session of Parliament, and
..the; Attendance ' was very slim, only about sixty
members being present. They all signed the fol
lowing address, which .was presented the same eve
ning to Mr. Adams ■
“ We, the undersigned, members of the House of
Commons, have learned with the deepest regret
ana honor that the President of the United States
has been deprived of life by an act of violence, and
we desire to express our-sympathy at the sad event
to the American Minister now In London, as well
as to declare our hopo aud confidence In the future
of that -great country, WEfich, we trußt, will con
tinue to bo associated with! enlightened freedom
and peaceful relations with this and every other
oountry."
PEELING 07 THE PRESS.
The London and English provincial j ournals alike
describe the Intense excitement whloh the news
created, and all unite in warm eulogtums upon Lin
coln, and bitter denunciations of the assassins. The
Earls and continental courn&ls contain a number of
articles on the same subjeot.
The Liverpool Post of the 2Tth la printed with Its
ooltuoss In mourning*
The London Star pays a warm tribute to President
Ltnooln, and eulogizes his steadfast policy of peace,
In spite of all provocations, towards England. It
also expresses great confidence that the North, even
m its hour of just Indignation, will bear Itself with
that magnanimous clemency whloh thus far has.
attended its triumph.
The London Times of the, 2Tth says: Thlß eve
ning it may he expected that the leaders of the
great parties in the House of Commons will take
the opportunity of expressing, In- the name of the
nation, the horror whloh Is everywhere felt at the,
crime, and of assuring the American people that,
whatever difference of opinion may exist in this
country as to the present war, there Is but one feel
ing of sympathy with them at the losb of an honest
and high-minded Magistrate.
in another article It. says: Nothing In political
history can be-remembered that has ever drawn
forth a more unanimous feeling than this news.
Personally President Lincoln enjoyed the kindest
regards from every one to. England. The extent to
which this Influence was estimated. In upholding
amicable relations between England and the United
States has been shown by a fall of unusual severity
In all classes of security. It will. bo received
throughout Europe with a sorrow as sincere and
profound as It awoke even in the United States.
Mr. Linooln’sperreot honesty speedily became ap
parent, and Englishmen learned to respect Mm.
It also says,unjust as we believe It to be, the Con
federate cause will not escape the dishonor oast
upon it by those wanton murders.
The Daily. Telegraph says: “He entered Richmond/
as a conqueror, but- he launohed no decree of prof
scrlption against the South, for the fight appeared
to him to be over, and-lt was not In his large hoar
to bear malice against a fallen foe. He spoke wed
kindly of General Lee, says Secretary. Stanton, as
on that samo night that he pleaded for mercy a/
for peace a minion killed him. Not for Line,'
himself can the end be considered as unhappy.”;
The Daily-News sayß that “Hr. Llnooln has/
fallen In the flush of triumph, Tor no thougt/
triumph was In that honest and humble heart/
his task was accomplished and the battle of hv
was won, and to all time tossome, with all who'
of manhood more than rank, the name of Ab?
Lincoln will be held InjOTorenoe and love. 11
ivYji'S then continues: 1 1 We will not, without
ana overwhelming proof, lay ttie charge of tl
rfble conspiracy, t-o.the loaders or abettor;
South.”
