EVIDENCES OF A MORE EXTENDED PLOT.
The Washington National Intelligencer
bays, that from information in possesslon
I of the authorities it is evident that the
scope of the plot was intended to be much
mole comprehensive. The vice president
land other prominent members of the adj
Bmiuistraition were particularly inquired

( ties accurately obtained but, providen-
ltially, in their cases the scheme miscar 1

TIE AssASsINs
The evidence duplicating J. Wilkes
gBooth as the assassin of the president Isl
|clear and conclusive, and the greatest
efforts are being made for his capture asl
well as for the capture of the would be
assassin of Mr.. Seward. Indeed, it has
been reported several times that Booth
vas taken, but there is yet no authentic
confirmation of this intelligence.
A letter found in Booths trunk at the,
hotel fully duplicates him, and shows
'that the plot for the murder was formed
before the 4th of March, but for somo
reason miscarried. The letter is evident
fy from lady. who be,ought Booth to
put off his mysterious undertaking, saying
5that the time was not ripe for it. Fur
Their confirmation of Booths guilt is hat
dropped in the presidents box and spur
lroppcd upon the stgae and identified by
pho stable keeper of whom he hired his
s'orse. Booth has played more than once
S.t Ford's tbcater, and is of course ac-
3Iuainted with its modes of ingress and
gress, and the facility with which he
ESCAPED behind the scenes is easily un-
.lerstood.
Major Gen. Augur, commanding the
department of Washington, has offered a
eward of $4,000 for the arrest of the
rssassins, and the acting provost marshal
general has sent notice to all his sub.
4"rdinatcs to be vigilant and not allow
The murderers to escape 10 Canada.
4 The Washington Star. Developments
have been made within the past "a hours
showing conclusively the existence of a
Fleep laid plot on the part of a gang Of
f;onspirators. including members Of tho
1prder of Knights of the Golden Circle, to
|murder. President Lincoln and his
acabinet. We have reason to believe that
Secretary Seward received several months
5sinco, intimatiOn from Europe, that some
Thing of very desperate character was t.,
transpire at Washington. and more than
. probable this intimation had reference t,.
\ plot of assassination. Pickets encirclinp
the city Friday night to prevent the ss.
cape of the murdcrcrs, were fred upon a,
several points by concealed foes. Arrests

promptly made.
