~ WASHINGTON, April %.
Within the past few days large number
OF Marylanders and Washingtonians who went
South at the beginning of the rebellion, in
GLIDING some prominent citizens, have return
ed to this city. They were with Gen. Lees
army, and are allowed to go to their homes
according to their cartel. Some are quite
bitter in their feelings, and express their in
tention to return south when exchanged and
required to again raise their hands against
the United States Government. Most of them
however admit that the South is overpowered,
the war at an end, and they are glad to get
home again.
One of these men relates singular incident
that the same person who owned the farm on
which the fighting commenced at the first bat
tie of Manassas owned the house in which
Gems. Grant and Lee drew up the articles OF
surrender. s4ss ss

President johnson has to-day been through
part of the same routine as during the past
few days, viz: receiving visits of various State
delegations and political associations. The
first to call this forenoon, was the Georgetown
Union League, whom the President fittingly
addressed. A delegation of the sons of Yer
mont afterwards called, headed by Hon. s. B.
Colby, who addressed the President
He responded in a brief speech, and in con
clusion said: HE would say to the wealthy
traitor you must pay the penalty of your trea-
son, and on the other side to the misguided
thousands who have been deluded and de-
ceived, many of whom have paid the penalty
with their lives and limbs, Cancellation, for
bearance and clemancy. a
A project is now on font here, which is
pushed forward with considerable zeal, to
erect monument to the late President Lin
coin. Many of Our merchants and citizens
generally have signiied their willingness to
respond literally.
