WBItXtSEOBOUGS, PENN’A.
WEDNESDAY,
f What can we say ! The tongue and arm of
[every true man are palsied with bitter but tin
[availing grief. Their hearts are sick with the
[low fever of sorrow, and they see but dimly
[through its tearful and bewildering mists 1
| Yet it is necessary to speak. A coward has
[entered the sanctuary of civil power end struck
[down its revered Chief. A good man, a wise
[ruler, whose administration of public affairs in
[an hour of unprecedented trial had won the ad
[miration and reepeotof every rightminded man
jin .Christendom, has been suddenly stricken
[down by an assassin. Abraham Lincoln is
[dead 1 but the men who plotted the crime and
!||)e hand that directed the bullet have jointly
[bequeathed him to everlasting The
world has lost a great, true-hearted friend; the
instigators of, and the apologists for treason,
have, by this cowardly stroke, removed their
only friend from court; one who so leaven o
justice with mercy that its stern lineaments
almost disappeared, and in their place appear
ed a languor, by some named weakness.
The teaching of these times is traced in
characters of blood. This last blow mote truly
reveals the cowardly animus of this rebellion
than all previous exhibitions of barbarity on
the part of rebels in arms, or of the plots ul
Jtheir sy ropathixers and 00-workers in the North,
[embracing the wholesale assassiaation of Union
jmen, and the destruction of cities by inoendi
jary fires. And let the Union men of the North
[bear this burning memory in their hearts—tha'
[the conspiracy to assassinate the President and
[his Cabinet was concpotgd in the North, lasi
hummer, bj tbs Copperhead chiefs; and the
discovery of this plot, together with the expos
ure of the several secret Societies forming that
[culmination of cowardice and villainy, brought
down upon its leader the- crushing weight of
popular loathing and indignation.
And let us remember, in the midst of our
bitter grief, that the assassination of Abbahah
Lincoln is a fitting, natural, and necessary
final act of the opposition to the Government.
An opposition so bitter, led, from pot-house up
to State and National organisations, by aban
doned men, could not eventuate in any less in
f.mv.n Umb omuslnation. bTnrder is the
appropriate crown for such monstrosities.
And let us never lose sight of the significant
fact, that the ballet which slew honest, great
hearted Abrahau. Lincoln, was aimed at the
heart of every Union man in the Republic.
The act of assassination is a threat against
the humblest, as well as the highest-supportei
of the Government. It was a cowardly deed,
and its commission does not exhaust the ’pol
troonery of the faction which will go down in
history as its instigator and apologist. No
simulated regret, no simple condemnation of
Che act, will cover up the guilt of the sympa
thizers with treason, or deceive an intelligent
people. This is the final strain upon the line
dividing the American people. He who keeps
silence now : or speaks lightly of the fearful ca
lamiiy which has hurled the Chief Magistrate
from Ms place, or apologizes for the crime —let
him be marked as an assassin in heart, and out
lawed in all the relations of life. So shall as
sassination, and Treason, its parent, become
not only unpopular, but impossible; and in
no other wav.
The country has lost a father. The repub
lic never had a President whose death was so
universally and deeply lamented. The tidings
ieroed the loyal millions like a sharp sword,
[t seems snob a bard thing that this great son)
—after bringing the nation through the dark
uight of its trial—could not abide to witness
ihe completion of his gigantic task. As Moses
brought Israel out of bondage, through much
l-uffering, and was finally permitted to look
lupon the Promieed Land from the top of Ne
Ibo, so was the nation's chief and leader per
lioitted to behold the sunrise of a day that is
j o witness the triumphal march of the nation
lonward, through decades of years, to the high
cat place among earthly powers.
Ancriw Johnson is to-day the President of
ti e United States. The possessor of a will
md determination which have earned for him
the appellation of “ Young Hickory,” combin
ed with a strong intellect and an inflexible
love of justice, Andrew Johnson will not die
appoint the loyal millions. We do not fear for
tbs country with the heroic Tennesseean as its
Chief. Treason will now receive-justice un
leavened by mercy ; justice symbolized by the
naked, instead of the sheathed, sword. The
babbling idiots who have decried the mild role
of Lincoln, denouncing it as tyranny, may
now learn that the'dead object of their fiend
ish bate pushed forbearance to the verge of
generosity. . -

ASSASSINATION IN THE CAPITAL,
Tli© President Shot,
APRIL 19, 1865.
AND SEC. SEWARD STABBED.
To Major General Fix;
Washington, April 15—1:30 A. M.
La'st evening, at about 9 P. M., at Ford’s
Theatre, the President, while sitting in his pri
vate bos with Mrs. Lincoln, Mrs. Harris and
Mr. Washburns, was shot by an assassin who
suddenly entered, the box and approached be
hind the President. Tbe assassin then leaped
upon the stage, brandishing a large dagger 01
knife, and made his escape in; the rear oT the
theatre. Tbe pistol ball entered the back of
the President’s head and penetrated nearly
through the head.
The woand.is mortal. The President has
been insensible ever since it was inflicted and
is now dying.
About the same hour a man whether the
same or not is not known, entered .Mr. Sew
ard’s apartments, and under pretense of having
a prescription, was shown the Secretary’s sick
chamber. Tbe assassin immediately rushed to
the bed and inflicted two or three stabs in tbe
throat and two in the face. It is hoped the
wounds may not be mortal. My apprehension
is that they will prove fatal.
The nurse alarmed Mr. Frederick Seward,
who was in an adjoining room and hastened to
uis father’s room, wbsn be met the assassin,
who ioflioted upon him one or more dangerous
wounds. The recovery of Frederick Seward is
doubtful.
It is not probable that tbe President will live
through the night.
Gen. Grant and wife were advertised to be
at the theatre this evening ; bat he started for
Burlington-at six o'clock this evening.
At a Cabinet meeting at ' which Gen. Grant
we* present, the subject of the state .of the
country'and the prospect of * a speedy peace
was discussed. The President was very cheer
fnl and spoke very kindly of Gen. Lee and
others of the Confederacy, and of the estab
lishment of a government in Virginia.
All the members of tbel cabinet except Mr.
Seward are now in attenance upon the Presi
dent. I have seen Mr. Seward; bat he and
Frederick were both unconscious.
(Signed) E. M. Stanton, ,
Secretary of War.
Washington, April 15—2:13 A. M.
The President is still alive, bat be is growing
weaker. The ball is lodged in his brain three
inches from where it entered the skull. He
remains insensible, and his condition is utterly
hopeless. The Vice President has been to see
bim. Alt company except me members or me
Cabinet and of the family is rigidly excluded.
Large crowds still continue in the streets, as
near the house as the line of guards allow.
■Washington, Friday, April 14, 1865:
President Lincoln and wife, withother friends,
this evening visited Ford’s Theatre for the pur
pose of •witnessing the performance of the
American Cousin. It was announced in the
papers that, Gen. Grant would also be present;
but that gentleman to.ok the late train of cars
for New Jersey.
The Theatre was densely crowded, and
every body seemed delighted with the scene be
fore them. During the third act, while there
was a pause for one of the actors to enter, a
iharp report of a pistol was heard, which mere
ly attracted attention, but suggested nothing
serious until a man rushed to the front of the
President’s box, waving a long dagger in his
right hand and exclaiming Sie Semper Tyran
nisj and immediately leaped from the box,
which was in the second tier, to the stage be
neath and ran across to the opposite side, mak
ing his escape amid the bewilderment of the
audience, in rear of the theatre and mounting
a horse, fled.
The screams of Mrs. Lincoln first disclosed
the fact to the audience that the President had
been shot, when all present rose to their feet,
rushed towards the -i stage, many exclaiming
" Hang him 1 hang him 1”
The excitement was of the wildest possible
lesoription, and of coarse there was an abrupt
termination of the theatrical performance.
There was a rush towards the President’s
box. when cries were beard “ stand back and
give him air 1” *' Has any one stimulants ?"
On a hasty examination it was found that
the Preside at had been shot through the head
above and back of Up temporal bone, and that
some of the brain was oozing out. I
He was removed to a private bonse opposite!
to the theatre, and the Surgeon General of the)
trmy and other surgeons were sent for to attend]
to hie condition. I
On an examination of the private box, blood
was discovered on the back of the cushioned
rocking chair on which the President had been
fitting, also on the postillion and on the floor.
A common, single-barreled pistol was found
in the carpet.
A millitary guard was placed in front of the
private residence to which the President had
been conveyed. An immense crowd was in
front of it, all deeply anxious to learn the oon
dition of the President. It had been previously
announced that the wound was mortal, but all
hoped otherwise.
The shook to the community was terrible.—
At midnight the Cabinet, with Messrs. Sumner
and Farnsworth, Judge Curtis and Governor
Oglesby, General Meigs, Colonel Hay and a
few personal friends, with Surgeon General
Barnes and a few of his immediate assistants,
were aronnd bis bedside.
Tee President was in a state of syncope,
totally insensible and breathing slowly. The
blood oozed from the wound at the back of bis
bead. The every poasiible
effort of medical skill ; but ail hope was gone-.
The parting of his family with the dying
President was too sad for description.
The President and Mrs. Lincoln did not start
for the theatre until fifteen minutes after S
o’clock.
Speaker Colfax was at the White House at
the time, and the President stated to him that
he was going, although Mrs 4 Lincoln had not

been well, because tbe papers had stated that!
Gen. Grant and they were to be present; and!
as Gen. Grant had gone North, he did nut wish!
the audience to be disappointed. He went!
with apparent reluc'ance, and urged Mr. Col-1
fax to go with him; but that gentleman had!
made other engagements and with Mr; Ashman,!
of Massachusetts, bade him good bye. !
When tbe excitement at the theatre was at
its wildest height, reports were circulated that
Secretary Seward had also been assassinated.—
Upon reaching this gentleman’s residence a
crowd and military guard were found at tbe
door, and on entering it was ascertained that
tbe reports were based on troth.
, Everybody there was so excited that scarcely
an intelligible word could be gathered: but
the facts are substantially as follows :
.At about 10 o’clock a man rang the bell, and
the call having been answered by a colored ser
vant, he said he had come from Dr. Verdi, Sec
retary Seward's family physician, with a pre
scription, at the same time holding in his band
a small piece of folded paper, and aaying in an
swer to a refusal that he must see the Secre
tary, as he was entrusted with particular di
rections concerning tbe medicine.
He still insisted on going np, although re
peatedly informed that.no one could enter the
chamber. The man pushed the servant aside
and walked heavily towards tbe Secretary’s
room, and was there met by Mr. Frederick Sew
ard, of whom he demanded to see the Secreta
ry, making the same representation which he
did to the servant. What further passed in
the way of colloquy is not know, but the man
struck Fred. Seward on the head with a billy
severely injuring the skull and felling him al
most senseless.
The assassin then rushed into the chamber
and attacked Major Seward, Paymaster U. S.A.,
and Mr. Hansell, a messenger of tbe State De
partment, and two male nurses, disabling them
all.
He then rushed upon tbe Secretary, who was
lying in bed in the same room, and inflicted
three stabs in the neok, but severing, it is
thought and hoped, no arteries, though he bled
profusely.
Tbe assassin then rushed down stairs, moun
ted his horse at tbe door and rode off before an
alarm could be sounded, and in the same man
uer as the assassin of the President.
It is believed that the injuries of the Secre
tary are not fatal, nor those of either of the
others ; although both the Secretary and As
sistant Secretary are very seriously injured.
Secretaries Stanton and Welles and other
prominent officers of the Government called at
Secretary Seward’s hones to inquire concern
ing his condition, and there heard of the assass
ination of the President.
They then proceeded to the house where he
was lying expiring, exhibiting, of course, in
tense anxiety and solicitude.
An immense crowd was gathered in front of
the President’s house, and a strong guard was
also stationed there. Many persons were evi
dently supposing he Would be brought to bis
home.
The entire city to-night presents a scene of
wild excitement, accompanied with violent ex
pression of indignation and the profoudest sor
row. Many shed tears
The military authorities have dispatched
mounted patrols in every direction, in order,
if possible, to arrest the assassin. The whole
Metropolitan police are likewise vigilantfor
the same purpose.
. The attacks, both at the theater and at Sec
retary Seward’s bouse, took place at about the
same hour—lo o’clock—thus showing a precon
certed plan to assassinate those gentlemen.
Some evidence of the guilt of the party who
attacked the President are in the possession of
he police.
Vice President Johnson is in the city, and
bis headquarters are guarded by troops.
War Department , April 15—4:10 A. M.
To Maj. Gen. Dix: It is now ascertained
with reasonable certainty that two assassins
were engaged in the horrible crime, Wilkes
Booth being the one that shot the President,
and the other a companion of bis, name un
known, but whose description is so clear that
be can hardly escape.
It appears from a letter found in Booth’s
trunk that the murder was planned belore the
4tb of March,, but fell through then, because
the accomplice backed out until Richmond
could be beard from.
Booth and his accomplices were at the livery
stable at 6 o’olnok last evening, and left there
with their horses about 10 o’clock or shortly
before that order. It would ■ seem that they
bad for several days been seeking a chance, but
for some reason it was not carried into effect
until last night.
One of them has evidently made bis way to
Baltimore. The other has not yet been traced.
Abraham Lincoln died at 23 minutes after 7
o’clock. (Signed) E. M. Stanton,
• Secretary of War.
Nsw York, April 15—12:30.
Dispatches just received from Washington
say Fred. Seward is not dead, bat in a critical
condition.
Later despatches state that Secretary Seward
will probably recover. His son is improving.
I Andrew Johnson was sworn into' office as
president of the United States, by Chief Justice
Chase, to-day at 11 o’clock.
Secretary McCulloch and Attorney General
Speed and others were present. He remarked,
the duties are mine; I will perform them
trusting in God."
The acting Secretary of State has issued the
following address:
Zb the People of the United S totes ;
The undersigned is directed to announce that
the funeral ceremonies of the lamented Chief
Magistrate will take place at the Executive
Mansion in this city, at 12,o’clock on Wednes
day the 19th inst. The various religons de

quested to meet in their places at worship at

Washington, April 15.
President Johnson and his cabinet held their
first formal meeting this afternoon at the Teas
ury Department in the room of Seo’y McCul
lough.
President Johnson, in conversation with a
distinguished gentleman to-day, said that at
present he saw no necessity for an extra session
of Congress, and further that he would not
commit himself to a policy which would pre-j
