WAsH1NaToN. April 1s.-Late last night
a man disguised as laborer, and carrying
a pick on his shoulder, approached the
house occupied by the family of Surratt, in
this city, and was about to enter, when he
was arrested, and upon washing the dirt
from his face, he proved to be quite a diff
terent looking person from what his ap.
pearance indicated. He called himself
Payne, and exhibited not q little embar:
rassment he managed to ask in sgitated
tones why he was arrested.
The colored servant of Secretary Seward
was sent for when he exclaimed immedi-
ately "that's the man. know him by his
general appearance and his mouth" The
servant then said there could be no mis-
take. Others who were in Secretary Sc.
wards house at the time who probably
have recollection of surrat's appearance,
will be afforded an opportunity to recog.
1ize him. The man arrested is believed
70 be Surrat, who perpetrated the dread
:alI acts at Secretary Stewards house on
friday.

dered support and encouragement. He
spoke with feeling Of the great personal
AMI public worth of his lamented prede-
cessor In assuming the grave responsi-
6uities imposed upon him in obedience to
the requirements of the Constitution, In
consequence of the sad dispensstion Of
Providence, he felt his own individual in
snthciency, aud the necessity of the kind
counsel and co operation of all friends Of
their country. This support he should
eudeavor to deserve by shaping his course
to those immutable principles of right
which underlie our government. He said
he had sure faith that if We adhered to
those principles the Almighty would save
the nation. He believed that the nation |
bad agEest mission to fulfill, and that God |
would not allow it to perish before its |
work was done. They had alluded to the |
murder OF the late President and to the |
attempt upon Mr.. Stewards life in just |
terms of indignation aud horror. The as
sassinatiou of any man, high or low, was |
crime OF the blaekest dye, especially dia.
ooneal was It when the blow was struck at |
Tue loVeo ana honored head of a great ma
nop in the very moment Of triumph. But
this horrible crime was only portion of |
the greatest of crimes, the attempted as
sassination of q nation, and he believed
that the American people felt it to be SO.
Taeason, he said, was crime aud not a
mere difference of political opinions. The
President closed by again thanking his
visitors for giving him at this hour their
God speed.
