The New military Divisions—Gen. Meade.
The new arrangement of the military
aivisions of our country, which we pub
lished yesterday, provides for the appoint
anent of Generals MEAall s SHEamaN,
.700M.A8, EIrEhIDAN, and Elantarca, for the
Atlantic, Mississippi, Tennessee, nith-
Vest, and Pacific Divisions, respectively.
- The Atlantic Division stands first on the
list, and comprises the Eastern States :
Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina,
and - South Carolina. The headquarters are
to be established in this city, and our gal
lant Philadelphia hero is entrusted with
this vitally important command. We re
joice that an opportunity is to be afforded
him of -enjoying some of the repose
and pleasures of peaceful life after his
long and areuous service. None of
our Generals have more persistently and
:bravely devoted themselves to their ha
-Sardous and patriotic profession. From
the commencement to the close of the
Isar he was absent but thirty days from the
field, and during most of this time he was
suffering from the severe wound he re
ceived at the battle of Gaines Mills. Rank
ing in the old army as a captain, he was
chosen in 1861 to command one of the bri
gades of the Pennsylvania Reserves. And
from that hour until the capture of Rich
aiond he shared all the trials, struggles,
defeats and victories of the A riny of the
Potomac. lle was no holiday soldier—no
political intriguaut—no sycophantic our
tier. He was rarely or never seen at
:Washington, and was only heard of at the
dead of his brave troops on a sanguinary
jaattle-field. Outranked at the beginning
of the war by scores of his compatriots, he
Steadily rose, step by step, while reputa
tions were daily being made and unmade
around him, until he became the coin-
Itiander-in-cbiei of the heroic band with
which he was-so closely identifit-A—a posi
tion which he alone was able to maintain.

distinction. Always ready, always vigi

lie evinced talent of the highest order in
that glorious struggle, and he might safely

the American people and the plaudits of
all who admire martial genius.

s'gns the following, as some of the reasons of the
President, for his come :
1. The public safety did not require their erelu
cotton, now that the war is ended and the national
authorite is firmly established ; nor was the prospect
of spending a lire time in a penitentiary a very
strong inducement to future traitors to repeat the
experiment that has been so unfortunate for Milli.
gas and Bowles.
2. There were decided objections in the minds of
many of the President's political Mende, to the tri
bunal by which tie prisoners were tried and con
demned.

General Grant, with his family and staff, arrived
at the Jersey City depot, opposite New York, a law
minutes after six on Tuesday turning. Early as It
was, a large number of Moe who were desirous to
look upon the hero, had gathered on the platform,
and in the vicinity, and when he deseendad from
the train, accompanied by Mrs. Grant, cheer upon
cheer broke from the thronging crowd. Nothing
could exceed the intense and enthusiastic admit's,
lion of the man which was displayed, and it was
with difficulty he was enabled slowly to make his
way through the crowd to the boat, which was in
waiting for him.
The hero of the 'Wilderness and Richmond was
accompanied by the following members of his stall :
Col. S. Bowers, Cal. 0. E. Bona, Co. E. S.
Parker, and Col. S. H. Beckwith.

NOV! was a ferryboat so densely thronged With
as was that which bore the Lieutenant
Leral from Jersey City to New York. It was In
vain that, with his usual wish to avoid observation,
he, endeavored almost to Oatmeal himself in the
carriageway. But the utter impossibility of clad.
kg the crowd, and the pertinacious desire of the eager
to took upon the face 'pine WhO had carried the We
?earl ul war to a oonoluelou, soon made it evident to
him that it would be better to-appear upon the °pea
deck. Consequently, he emerged from his compare•
the retirement, and, lighting a cigar, dropped a
few good•hummed words to all who °holm to address
him.
During the passage the following inldent is re•
lated to Dave taken place:
A long•baired, Southern-looking gentleman, ex
cited the anger of a brawny Irishman, by asserting,
In a very offensive manner, that General Grant was
smaller in mind than in person, and that General
Lee bad invariably whipped him. -
„ Yon lie P , said the Irishman, coolly.
Sir, sir I" exclaimed the chivalrous gentleman,
fumbling In his breast, as if for a concealed Weapon.
. 11 Are you a Southerner asked the Irishman.
" I am," replied the other with pomposity.
" Art you a rebel 1"
" 3 am proud to say I have been, and am now on
ray way to the friendly shores of Eogland."
" continued his interlocutor, " please
carry this to the old country for me, with my 0 , 301-
pliments," and With that be bit toe Southerner a
ornshirg blow on the snout, which mode the tra•
Ducer of General Grant most happy to sneak away
mid avoid further notice.
.A.EtRtVAL AT NNW YORIL
'Another great crowd awaited the party at the New
York landing ; but three Astor House °pathos were
in waiting, and in these they made their way, and
were Boon moving rapidly to their destination, fol.
lowed by the cheers of the crowd.
At the Astor House an even larger crowd was
awaiting the arrival of the General, but here, also,
he evidently desired to escape from the general ad
miration which seemed determined to plums him,
and immediately palletd up to the roomy wawa h.a
been on aced for him—roma DTVO. 98, 40 and 42, on
the second floor.
THE RECEPTION AT THE ASTOR HOUSE.
By ten o'clock A M., the hotel was thronged with
visitors anxious to be introduced to the illustrious
punt. They were allowed to enter in single file,
and the amount of handshaking which. the General
submitted to was marvelous, but he did it with great
rapidity, at the same time, kindly replying to who
ever addressed him.
ertANT AS A HISTORICAL OISITIO,
Several Incidents immured whieh may be worthy
of chronicling. Amongst others, on a personal
friend remarking to him—
', General, I wonder if you can be aware what a
hero you are considered here—how great is the ad
mirathm of the matchless strategy by wawa you
finished the rebellion."
"Between you and me, I don't believe much In
strategy." replied Gen. Grant. "I nave generally
used strategy merely to get close to the enemy, and
then my motto Is just 'Up, guards, and at them!'
as Wellington IS reported to have said, though he
probably never said anything of the kind."
818 PBBSOIXAL PR11D32.7013
In the course of a brief ohat with the General a
gentleman remarked :
"General, who Is It that we can never get you to
°
pea_k to public 1 ,,
"Tbe Met k," was the reply, "I have never been
accustomed to anything of the kind, and I am now
too old to learn.”
"At least, you know how to shake hands," said
another gentleman; "I wonder, however, that
bedo not now change hands, OA your right mast
be tired."
N 1 think I will continue my duties with the same
hand,. said the General, "as I wish to keep one in
good condition."
Some of the visitors were Considerate enonsth to
pass the wearied chieftain Without shaking hands,
contenting themselves with a mere bow; and the
general recognized their courtesy with very evident

At half past twelve o'clock a number of ladieS en

was very courteous, and evidently thought this the
most agreeable portion of a scene which:had been,
until their arrival, even more wearisome and trying
to his mental constitution than the most bloody of
the battles of the wilderness. But when a young

The arrangements by the 00Minittle appointed to
facilitate matters, were very thorough, and enabled
the reception to pars off in no thoroughly satisfac

Grant as possible. Excellent order prevailed
throughout the whole of the scene.

Rho recited the history of the late Administration,
and paid well•deseryed compile:tante to each ROM.

duct the country through the late fearful crisis. The
deeds of the army and navy were then referred to,
and an eloquent tribute passed on those - who hare

Ali6lV.ll. OF ORNSFAL GRANT
At thin period of Mr. Dickinson's spenoh, General.
Grant arrived, and the reception he met with Is
thee described by the. Tribune:
With a dezim policemen fighting a path for him
through the Wilderness of happy beluga who do.

engaged, anti cutting entirely mese from his dam•
InUnicationa. General Grant made kilo way to the
platform, whore hie appearance was hailed with
tremendous cheering. The ladies arose and 5,160.
cheered ; the men danced for joy, trampled the gestic
under foot, and fairly clambered upon the eh nutters
of thorn in front to obtain a glimpse of the hero of
the hour. The Lieutenant General positively ap
peared frightened by. the storming nature of the
plaudits. No would probably rather have faced a,
battery of rebel Kam than the tompestuoas welcome
before him. Me arose and bowed repeatedly,
mounted a chair, aoknowledired the reception of a.
bouquet from a party, of ladies with a thankful
smile, and appeared to try MB beet to get oat of
sight, butthe mob was• too big and strong to be de.
nied. General C-rant must speak. Dir. Heide tried•
to speak for him (probably at the General% re•
quest) so aid air. Dieldneett ; but the people wanted
to be assured from the lips of one man only—those
of - General Grant I- SO WO have to record a brief
SPRYCH PROM LIBUT. GRNRRAL GRANT.
The proverbial reticenee Of the Geuerat befog at
last overcome, he arcse and spoke as follows :
Ladies &ad Gentlemen: I have never tweet alma&
toned to speaking In paollo ;. yon will pardon me if
I think lam too old to learn. I thank -you—thank
you deeply for these great manifestations Of your.
esteem, and only wish that I deserved them- better.
I can say noshing more than this—l thank you.”
[tremendous cheering, hat.waving, buzzes, and a.
oroun of bouquets.]:
The General remained. upon Vas platform for
about fatesn minutes, and then retired, allowing
the audience to recover for a fa w.mlnatell a state of
comparative equanimity.
SPItIOH OSP NAJ , OII. GIINUICILL YIIANIC . BLAIR.
General Dlair was rata Introduced, who spoke as
follows :
_My friends, thepurpose of this meeting to-night,
as I have seen it announced, is to endorse the Admi
nistration of Andrew Johnson. Well, I have yet to
find the that man that has anything to say against ,
Andrew Johnson. I have not seen the man, Vanig
or Democrat, or a man of any other stripe, that has
anything to say against him ; therefore, it would be ,
a very cifticult thing for me to combat anything
brought against Andrew JObtillOti. I have not heard
much against tic proclamation; indeed, my friends,
the principles on which his proclamation Is founded
are sounded on the principles of Abraham Lincoln.
I don't thins. It Sc necessary to enter into any argil.
meat here, but it strikes me that When the people
nominated Abraham Lincoln and Anorew Johnson,
aid announced over and over again that when the
people of the South laid down their arms they
thoutd be again received, and in all that has been
announced in this proclamation, the people should
concur most heartily.
Ei'ESOH O 7 OBEIBBAL JOHN A. LOOAN.
Major General Jahn A. Logan was then intro
duced and delivered a long speech, In which he
treated on all the the subjects lately endorsed by
the Administration. During the COMO of hls ro
mans he said
That as far as President Johnson's Administrao
Son bas developed itself I oestainly have no fault
to hod. What there may be to objeot to in the fu

the country will have a right to decide for them

Judge Bingham objected to the reception of the
paper on the ground that it was wholly immaterial
whether Mr. McCullough ever met the wheels,
Weid.tuatt, or not. Weidman, when on the stand,
bad been asked by this side whether he 68.9 r
McCullough, ,nil It was not competent now to at
tempt to impeach him in that Issue, as it eras not
materiel whether be did or not see MoOrtliottzh.
Mr. Eakin said the paper furnished a complete
refutation of a statement made by Weidman no
far as concerned the tact of his having seen M-Uul•
lough, and this was ma , erisl in so far as It contra
dieted *me item of the statements of that witness.

Testimony of Col. J. C. Holland.
By Mr. Ewing I am provost marshal for the
Firth Congressional District of Maryland; I am ac
quainted with Daniel J. Thomas ; I did not at any
time during lan spring or winter receive a letter
from him to the effect that Dr. S. A Mudd had said
to Mm that President Lincoln, his whole cabinet,
and every Union man in tan State of triaryl3,ml
would be billed wir.hia Mt or seven MOILS ; I never
xecei,ed from Thomas any letter in which the 151,10110
or Dr. Samuel A. Mudd was .mentioned, I did re.
ceive a letter from him dated February 9, 1965 ; Mr.
Thomas was what was called an independent de
tective; that is, he was not commissioned under the
Government, but by me specially to arrest deserte rs
and orafted men who failed to report, for which his
compensation was the reward allowed for sash ar.
resis ; inch commissions were given to all who ap.
plied for them.
By Assistant Judge Advocate . Burnett: The let.
ter which I received from Thomas had some refer
ence to Dr. George Mudd, with whom I am ac
quainted.

By Mr. foster : I live in Poet Tobacco, and have
Irman the prisoner, Atzerott, for the last six or
eight years ; a tzc. rott was at Port Tobacco several
times during fte spring; at one time, about the
latter part of February, I was pink' to the country,
and be went with me ; I think on that occasion he
had cciae from Bryantown, and was riding a sorrel
horse ; 1 never oonsioered the prisoner a eoaragaSaS
man ;. ho Is generally known as being a Onward, and
irstatces of his want of courage have been shown;
I have seen him making pretty good time In getting
out of the way when a pletot-anut was tired daring
•a melee, or arything of that kind.
Testimony of John S. Mitten.

Maryland ; I an acqualntedwlth Dalllol J. TI10,11%.4;
be is porannoll) known as an untruthful M.LCI frsm
Loy knowledge of kW onaraotor, I do no tank I
could believe him under oatu.
Crossexamined by Judge Advocate Holt I never
knew Themes to swear lahely ; Ido not hold that
be emcee It man speaks an untruth he will necessarily
swear falfeiy.
Par 'Ewing stated that there remained to be called
tight witt.estes in the ogee of Madd, whom he de.
sired to question with a view to an Impeachment of
the witness Thomas. out they were not present. One
ot the witnesses was expected to testify in regard to
the whereaboUta Of JIDIad on the 23d or Pecan:thee
Ilat.
llr. Doter stated that, ta the We of Payne, he
debited to call six additional witnesses for the par.
pose of showing the antecedents of the prisoner, and
the predisposition of his whole family to insanity.
The preciput for subpconeas in the cases of these
witnesses were filed at least ten days ago, and they
should either now appear or some cause be sho wn
for their continued absence. In the case of Atzerott
three witnesses remained to be called, by whom it
was expected to Impeach a witness caned for the
prosecution. These three witnesses, the speaker
Stated, had acknowledged to him the fart that they
bad been fillumoiaed, yet, notwithstanding that,
they had not appeared.
Judge Advocate Holt inquired the 11112108 of the
witnesses not in attendance wno had acknowledged
to have been summoned.
Mr. Doster gave their names as follows : AB9OOl.
ate Justice Olin, of the District of Columbia;
Marcus P. Norton, and Henry Hardin.
Judge Holt stated to the Commission that the
witnesses named had failed to appear after having
been duty summoned as stated by the Couneel,
and suggested the propriety of using Compulsory
Measures to secure their attendants.
Mr. Coster sato teat he OM not wish to be under
stood as eating km the arrest of the witnesses ; that
he would hesitate Mug before asking for the arrest
of a Judge of the Supreme Court.
Judge Holt remarked isbat those who adminiff.
tend the law ought certainty to snow obedience to
it. He had understood that Judge Olin had ad
journed his court today In consequence of the
military review which was taking Mae. in Wash.
Ireton, and if the Commission so ordered, he would
take measures to compel the attendance of that
gentleman before the body as soon as possible.
Mr. Doter Bald that tile testimony proposed to
he taken in Payne's case was very material, inas
much as the question of insantte couldnot be passed
upon by Dr. Mitchell, whom the court had permit
ted to see the prisoner, until Payne's antecedents
were procured. This could not be done except by
those absent witnesses.
Assistant Judge Advoinite Harnett then prepared
an order, which war endorsed by the Commie•
stem directing General Hariranft, provost mar
shal of the outtrbroom, to arrest and bring before
the court the witnesses named who had failed to
obey the process.

far. Ewing *ldeated to the question, on the ground
that ii was not rebutting evioenoe.
Judge Holt said he could offer it as an expression
on the part of the prisoner, and on that ground
alone.
• • .
The court voted that the question should be an.
twered.
The witness answered : I was In my house when
Mr. Hardy, who was at the yard gate with Dr.
Mudd, helloed to me that the President was asses-
Bloated, and Seward and his son Injured; I asked
the Doctor about it and he said it was so; I asked
him who assassinated the President, and toe Doctor
replied, 4 . a man named Booth;' Mr. Hardy then
asked him whether It was the Booth who was down
here last fall; the Doctor said he did not know
whether it was or not, as there were three or
lour by one name of Booth 3 if thatwas the one he
knew him ; the Doctor said he was very sorry the
thing bad occurred.
Q. How long did Dr. Mudd remain at your house!
A, Not more than fifteen minutes; he did not give
the particulars of the asslissination.
Cross examined by Mr. Ewing • Dr. Mudd said it
was the worst thing which could have hs,ppeilett ; It
made It a great deal worse Pr the country than
while the war was going on Dr. Mudd seemed to
be entirely in earnest • Dr. Mudd came to see Mr.
Hardy about some rail' timber, and Hardy told him
where he could get some, but Dr. Mudd said It was
too far to haul.
