The Funeral DISPLAY YESTERDAY

The funeral pageant in this city yester-
day, was one of the most sublime spectacIes
ever witnessed on this continent. In two
of the great cities of the East the number
of people present at similar demonstrations
last week may have exceeded the number
present here, but those who have accom-
panied the remains from Washington, as
sure US that nowhere has the solemn dis
play been more magnificent, orderly or
successful in its general arrangement than
in Chicago, and that nowhere have the
signs of sorrow, and the exhibitions Of re-
spect for the illustrious dead been more APP
propriate, or impressive, or more creditabIe
tc the people
1t is well and proper that Chicago
should thus honor the noble son of Illinois,
whose lifeless but sacred form now lies in
state in her chief public edifice By paying
this great tribute of respect to the worth
and memory of the revered LINCOLN, she has
honored herself in manner that makes us
more proud of her than ever before.

From the Cleveland Herald, 18th
The telegraph announces the fact that the
men who struck down President LincoIl
and Secretary Seward are known. Thew
are guilty of the most terrible murder eve,
known, but are not alone in their guilt.
The guilt of the men who instigated the
crime, and who gave the color of authority
to the act is even more damnabIe.
Among the official documents found in
the rebel capital on the entry of our troons
into Richmond, was bill offered in secret
session of the rebel House of Representatives
January S0th, 1866, establishing Secret
Service Bureau, for the employment of
secret agents "either in the Confederate
States, or within the enemy's lines, or in any
foreign country, and authorizing the chief
officer ito organize such system FOR THE
APPLICATION OF NEW MEANS OF WAR
FARE APPROVED; and of secret service
agencies as may tend best to secure
the objects Of the establishment of the

held to strict account for the fearful crimes
committed under their sanction.
