THE FATAL DEED AT THE THEATRE.

THE FATAL DEED AT THE THEATRE.
The circumstances which led to the
success Of the prcs,n diabolical plot
are mainly as follows: AS is not un-
common, the general JOY and honpfnl-
ness after the late brilliant victories,
whereby the heart of the insurreetion
was finally and fatally pierced, the da?
of rejoicing was concluded by lspeci,!
feioicing'a at the public theatres. It has
not BEEN the custom Of the President
habituallyi to attend these places II
amusement, but as this seemed to be- an
occasion of general rejoicing, he hal
consented toovisit it in company with
his wife, for the purpose offending hi'
countenance and encouragement 10 tho
prevailing good feeling. G sncra' Grant
and his wife were expected to be pres
ent also, but afterwards changed their
determination.Io-'ies da
