Official Order.
MAR DEPARTMENT,

WASHINGTON, April l5-l.30 A. MI,
This evening, at about $50 P. NJ, at
Ford's Theater, the President, while sit
ting in his private box with Mrs. Lincoln,
Mrs, Harris and Major Rathburn, was
shot by an assassin, who suddenly entered
the box. and approached behind the
President. The sssas sin then leaped up
on the stage, brandishing a large dagger
,or knife, and made bis escape in the rear
'ofthe theater. The pistolball entered the
back Of the Presidents h ad and pene
|trated nearly through the head. The
wound is mortal.
The President has been insensible ever
since it was inflicted. and is now about
dying. About the same hour, an assassin,
whether the same or not, entered Mr.
Stewards apartments, and under p retense
of having prescription. was shown to
the Secretary's sick chamber. The as
|sassin Immediately rushed to the bed and
inflicted two or three stabs on the throat,
|and two on the face.
1t is hoped the wounds may not be
mortal. My apprehension is that they
will prove fatal. The nurse alarmed Mr..
Fred. Seward. who was in an adjoining
room, and who fastened to the door OF
his fathers room, where he met the as
sassiu, who inflicted upon him one OF
more dangerous wounds. The recovery
|of Fred. Seward is doubtful.
1t is not probable that the President
will live through the night.
General Grant and wife were advertised
to be at the theater this evening. but he
started for Burlington at 9 P, N.

Grant was present, the subject of thu
state OF the country, and the prospect o.
speedy peace was discussed. The Pres
ident was very cheerful and spoke very

Government in Virginia. All the mem
bers Of the Cabinet, except Mr.. Seward,
are now in attendance upon the President.
