erection Of National Monument, to the
memory of the late lamented President, who
fell SO cruelty by the hand Of an assassin in
the midst Of our rejoicing for the great and
decisive victories, achieved By Grant and
Sheridan and the noble officers aud men Of
tLeir commands. The news of the great ca
lAmity which had befallen the nation, reached
us about midnight on the 10th inst. aud even
at that late hour, the mournfn1 news spread

is only needed to finish the struggle, so nearly
ended By his illnstzious predecessor, will not

respectfully suggest-ptovided . course Of

the Cashiers OF all the National Banks
throughout the country be selected as the
agents to receive the free .eM offerings Of the
people, for the consummation Of an object so
1sortby-one in which they will take last
Ing pride, and which We have no doubt they
will carry to successful completion.
TIE erection of monument to the memo
r. Of Abraham Lincoln is not needed to pe:-

brightest pages of American history, and
stand, unr.va1led except By that Of the im-

The disposition made Of the body Of The
Assassin is q subject Which now excltes much
interest. The Journals each have theory Of
their own. The New York I7aes declares
that, after the autopsy By the Surgeon Gen.
eral, t'the body WAS dissected, and, in sepa-
rate pieces, sewed In cloths with heavy
weights, and placed in small vessel, which
made short circuitous 1rip upon the Poto-
mac, and, without landing, returned to the
navy yard minus the body.''
The New York Horld is even more dramatic
than this. The writer says:
"Testerday the Secretary Of Wa-, without
Instructions Of any kind, committed to Colo
the stark corpse of The Assassin. The secret
g;1yice never fulfilled Its volitioD more sscze-
tiye1y. What have you done with the body'
said to Baker. That is known,' he an
swcred, to only one man living besides ny
sell. It is Gonc- will not tell you where.
TIE only man who knows Is sWorn to silence.
Ncver till tie Ereat trumpeter comes shail
the grave Of The Assassin be dis:overed.'
And this is true. Last night, the eth of
April, q small row boat received the carcass
Of the murderer two men were IN It; they
carried the body of into the darkness, and
the darkness, like his G-eat crime, may 1t re-
main forever, tmpalpab1e, invisible, monde
script, condemned to that worse than damna-
ton, annlhilatiou. The river-bottom may
ooze Eabout it, laden With great shot and
dtUWnipE manacles. The earth may have
opened to give it that silence and forgiveness
which man viii never give Its memory. The
fishes nsy swim around it, or the daisies grow
white above it-but We shall never Know"
The Herald says that "the authorities are
not inclined to give the wretehed carcass the
honor Of meeting the public gaze, and It will
probably bs deposited In whatever ptace
promises the most utter obscurity for them.
