The Funeral Train.

New YORK, April "a constant
stream of people has been passing
through the room where the remains OF
the late President have been ever since
yesterday afternoon. They pass at the
rate of eighty per minute. At midnight
the German singers, numbering about
1000 voices, chanted dirges. Though the
long line of citizens anxious to view the
remains was kept moving, early this
morning it seemed diminished but very
little, and soon after daylight was length
ened greatly. extending from Warren to
John street on Broadway, and west side
of CITY Hall, while there was another
line of greater length running through
the street on the east side of the hail.
All places of business are closed, while
the upper stories of every building along
the route of the procession are occupied
by anxious spectators.
ONE O'CLoCK.-The procession is now
moving with the remains to the Hudson
river railroad depot. Itisone of the most
imposing and impressive spectacles ever
witnessed in New York city, indeed per-
haps it was never equalled. There are
no vehicles in the line of the procession
1t moves with an awe inspiring solemni-
ty to the mournful music of the various
bands The military are out in full force,
as also very large number of civic soci-
cites, &c.
One of the festoons in front Of the City
Hall took fire this morning, causing great
excitement. As the cry Of fire was made,
the presence of mind of an officer, who
promptly tore down the burning drapery,
would in all probabIIify nave caused loss
of life
The crowdin Broadway was so great
that it was found necessary to run chains
around the space through which the pro
cession had to pass on the park The
number who visited the remains is esti-
mated at one hundred and twenty thou
sand
New YORK, April 25-New York has
amply paid her last tIibute of respect to
the remains of Abraham Lincoln. They
were escorted to the Hudson River Rail
road depot BY funeral procession never
eoualed in this country. and perhaps in
the world. Leading the line were two
divisions of State militia, including in
fantry, cavalry and artillery, besides a
battalion of marines Immediately fol
lowing was the 9TH Regiment, which has
done guard duty since the arrival OF the
funeral cortege in this city, The regi.
ment looked magnifcently. The most
remarkable feature of the funeral process
siou was the immense number of Masons
who were next in line, each man wearin :
in his coat sprig of evergreen. Perhaps
10000 of the order were in the process
sion. The irish societies followed in
great numbers. The procession closed
with large delegation from societies
from Brooklyn, and finally, several thou
sand negroes. 1t was three hours in
passing given point The procession
was one of the largest ever seen in Ne"
York

slavery in Kentucky,

CINCINNATI, April 25.-General Bris-
bin, Superintendent of the organization
of colored troops in Kentucky, has writ
ten letter to Governor Bramlette, call
ing attention to the disturbed condition
of labor in that State, urging him to call
the legislature and pass the con stitution-
al amendment The General says the
slaves are nominally free. Their mas
tiers can no longer depend upon their la
Dor, and points out the evils that must
arise from the present half slave and
half free condition of the State. He
claims that the passage Of the amend
mont would quiet the minds OF the ne
groes and cause them to remain at home
and till the soil now so much in need of
their labor.
The General says that more than 90
900 of the most valuable slaves have al
ready gone into the army, that Ken
tucky must choose either to have her
slave population absorbed and freed by
the army, or save her labor to the Soil by
granting unconditional freedom to slaves
at home.
The Governor replies, concurringin the
opinion that slavery can no longer be re-
tanned in Kentucky, that labor must be
reorganized on free basis, and says the
war has exterminated slavery and revo-
lutionized the public mind in regard to
it.
Slavery being ended in the rebellions
States, the Governor thinks it should be
ended in Kentucky by the most direct
and speedy means. He regards the pass,
age of the constitutional amendment as
the most practical method, and thinks its
adoption may save the State from the III.
terruption of industry and suspension OF
production He calls to mind the patriO
tism of Kentuckians, and says they were
always for the Union with or without
slavery

Important Decision by Attorney Gen.
cral Speed.

PHILADELPHIA, April "a special
dispatch to the Bulletin from Washing.
ton City says Attorney General Speed
has made a highly important decision on
the terms of the capitnlation of Lee. In
reply to letter Of the Secretary of War
relating to these points, he decided:
First, That the rebel officers who sur
rendered TO General Grant have nohomes
in loyal States, and therefore have no
right to come to places where their
homes We're in the loyal States prior to
going into the rebellion;
Second, That persons in the civil ser
vice ef the rebellion, or who have other
wise given it support, comfort and aid,
and were residents of rebel territory,
have no right to return to the North un-
der that stipulation.
Third, That rebel officers certainly
have no right to be wearing their uni
forms IN any of the loyal States The
Attorney General adds, that such rebel
officers having done injury in coming
into the loyal States, are but adding in
suit to injury in wearing their uniform ;
that they have as much right to bear the
traitors flag through the streets of a
loyal CITY as to wear the traitors garb,
and that the stipulation of surrender
permits no such thing, and the wearing
against the government

GREELEY on JEFF. DAvIs:-In reply
TO the query of correspondent as to
what Mr.. Greeley would do with jeff.
Davis, the Tribune characteristically re
plies: "We would do nothing with him
till we had caught him, and would say
nothing calculated to increase the diff.
Guilty of catching him or that of putting
down the rebellion. If we had him fast,
our treatment of him would be gov
erned first, by the conditions of his sur
render, ii such there were; next, by q
careful determination of what was best
for the country. But we fail TO perceive
the wisdom of counting chickens not yet
hatched."

forces in his front, and afraid of General
Grant in his rear, he moved to the right
and was apparently making for the ka-

We are authorized to announce that by
order of the military authorities the

The Exchange Of fPrisoners-seeret
Seward 10 Remain in the Cabinet
JEFF Davis 10 Re-organize 40,0 900
Troops In Texas-slave Insurrection
in Cuba Anticipated.

New YORK, April 25.-lt is said the
| exchange of 5000 Union soldiers at Da-
frien. Ga, which it is supposed has taken
place by this time, will leave scarcely
any of our men in the hands of the Teb-
els, while there still remain in the hands
of the Government between 10000 and
20 900 rebel troops, besides those paroled
under the terms of Lees surrender
The Herald's Washington special says
President Johnson regards it of the ut
most Importance that Secretary Seward
remains in the cabinet.
The Tribunes special says; It's the
opinion of well informed gentlemen that
jeff. Davis will be able to re-organize a
force Of about 10000 troops in Texas,
with which he will move into Mexico in
the event of being pressed by the Union
armies.
The Mexican Minister had very
lengthy, and it is said most important
private interview with the President to-
day. General Ortega has been sent for
and is on the way here from st. Louis,
and his arrival is hourly expected, a cir
cumstance imparting additional signiti-
canoe to to-day's audience.
The Tribune says: From gentleman
who recently arrived from Havana we
learn that serious though guarded ap-
prehensions exist there of an insurrection
among the slaves 1t is said large de-
posits of arms have been found, and
that several negroes have been arrested.
The plot is said to be to raise the slaves
all over the Island, and the Government
is fearful of an outbreak, notwithstand-
ing its premature discovery.
