INV YoRK, May THE steamship America
from Southa mpton on the Goth ult, arrived to-
day.
The London Times says: The end has come
ut last, aud the great American war is virtually
closed by the surrender by Lee of the army OF
Virginia The tone of correspondence between
Grant and Lee is b honorable to both. The copdi-
tons were such as it was no disgrace for an
over matched army TO accept; nor even Napo-
leon, $ army could not count a series of more
brilliant victories than could the army of Vir-
ginia.
They were victorious until victory was no
more to be achieved by human valor, and then
they fell with honor. Two years ago Lee might
have escaped to Lynchburg, but not now. The
federal generals made moves with as much rap
idity and attacked as did Napoleon's marshals.
The federal army is entitled to rank among the
first OF the nations of the earth.
All attempts to establish a southern confede-
racy must be abandoned.
The Times of Tuesday SAYS: With the de.
feat of the southeruers the difficulties of the fed
eral government set in. After the restoration of
federal authority, and the redsction Of the south
to obedience, an overwhelming prospect will
open before Lincoln's administration Much lies
between the conquest of the south and the res
toration of the union. In the face of political
problems of unexampled difficulty to be con-
lrOnteo, sucn questions as regeneration oil cur
rency, reform of tariff, and the management of
the national debt, important as they are in them
selves. may appear Insignificant.
At Liverpool the intelligence of Lees surren-
der was received with great satisfaction, causing
increased confidence in commercial circles.
The secretary of the Russian legation was as
sassinated in Paris by a Russian.
RUSSIA The CzsrowiIz died at Nice. The
Car, Princess Dagnar and the Queen of Den
mark were with him.
Belgium's meeting. held at Brussels, was fol-
lowed by a great demonstration in honor of the
late federal victories. An immense procession
repaired to the federal consul's residence. The
consul received the deputation, and made a
speech. A serenade followed.
The London Times seems to take the part of
President LincOln's desire to cOnciliate the
enemy, under the guidance of Mr.. Seward. who
has creditably distinguished himself by his
moderate ~cOunsels and whose life will, we trust,
be spared al this crisis 10 the union. He NAV
bv gentle measures restore tranquility and, per-
haps before his term of Office expires, calm in
some degree the snimosities which have been
raised by these wears of war.

outgivings Of melo- dramatic villains OF the
Wilkes Booth genius. Innocent letters have
often been made TO bear a sinister Interpretation
in the light OF events undreamed of when those
letters were written; and universal experience
has long since affirmed the insecurity of judging
a case whereof only cue side. at most, has been
heard.
Assassination is not an American custom. We
do not recall a single previous case wherein
persons ofany note and standing in this cOun-
try have conspired 10 effect a great public end

assassins. For the honor of our country. it NAV
