The spur was dropped upon the stage,
and that also has been identified as thc
one procured at a stable where the samc
man hired a horse in the evening.
Two gentlemen, who went to thc Sec
retary of War to apprise him of the at
tack on Mr. Lincoln, met at the residence
of thc -former a man muffled in a cloak.
fjwho, when accosted by them hastened a-
way.
It had been Mr. Stanton's intcution to
accompany iir. .Lincoln to tnc tneateri
end occupy thc same box, but the press!
of business prevented.
It therefore seems evident that the aim
of thc parties was to paralyze the country
by at once striking down the head, the
heart and the arm of the country.
As soon as the dreadful events were
announced in the streets, Superintendent
llichards and his assistants were at work-
to discover thc assassin.
In a few moments thc telegraph had a-
