The New Administration.

II must be truly gratifying to every loyal
man to note the almost unanimous support
which the people of the country are giving
tn the new administration. With here and
there mean and uninauencing exception.
tho press Of the country, as lar as we have
h'en ablc to observe. seem disposed to regard
President johnson Us fitting leader Of tho
nation In the closing drama OF the great con-
.spiucy. II is well. Whether the means to
being il about havo been right and accepta-
bic, or whether the contrary be true, need
no. DO discussed-a now order Of things ex-
ists, and the fact or tho circumstance can
not be changed. II is no more the Union as
i, was, but the Union rs it is and as il ought
10 bs. that is to DO the slogan which will
cause the people to rally to any standard.
II is no moro Union with slavery, but Union
with no slavery. II is no more Freedom
national aud slavery sectional" but freedom
everywhere and slavery nowhere.
why will not oil northern men accept this
new state Of things. and improve upon tho
bright prospects before the nation, when the
discordant elements which have divided our
efforts and councils. are laid? lf we do not
accept the fact that slavery has become exter-
minated by the war, southern rebels accept
and acknowledge IL. Let us Danish from our
councils. then, those things that marred our
peace. and work with purpose single OF
making this country worthy the abode OF
freemen. Issues will hereafter be raised up
on which honest men will diffsr. but they
will not be old issues. Let us meet them in
that spirit Of an enlightened patriotism which
dos no. blindly and wickedly array itself
against Gods providence, but which improves
each day upon the lessons OF the hour.

Reduction Of Expenses.

The war is ended. These words which the
nation has so longcd to hear. now greet US.
NJ formal declaration makes them known
hut the destruction Of those armies warning
upou the Union. heralds in the long sought
tor pcae. No organized iorcc, fighting for
ne rebellion, now exists east OF the Missis.
sippi. and hereafter all those in arms against
the laws will be considered outlaws. Already
HIVE the authorities issued orders to 20 into
Immediate effect for the reduction OF the ar.
my. which will probably send home one hun
died to one hundred and fifty thousand sol
diers; and in addition to the curtailment Of
v,st expenses, every trade will feel the nc
cession to the large army Of producers which
gives wealth and prosperity to the nation.
President johnson has set his foot down
on the matter of retrcnchment and reduc-
tion Of the expenses Of tho government to n
peace standard rs soon as may be, and the
Cabinet arc unit on tho subject. 1t is not
probable that any now loans beyond the pre-
sent series viii ever DO Issued, and our inaat-
I'd currency will be lessened as much as pos
rible. This, however. viii require time, and
we may not expect to zoe gold aspar for quite
a sc,son. But wo $50 no reason why busi-
ness will not very soon receive an impetus
which will remind us Of old times. As the
ports to southern trade are opened. there
must be large and immediate demand for
the products Of northern industry.

HAROLD. THE ASSOCIATE OF BoorH. THE As.

Star contained the following account of the
man Harold. who was in company with Booth
when the latter was killed
david Harold Is well known in the Sixth
Ward. he being the son Of the late A. G Har.
old, who for many years was the principal
clerk in the naval store. We believe that he

desperate lengths in her behalf.
He had been out Of employment for some
time past, but managed to keep horse-a very
fast pacing animal-at Pope's stables on K.
street south, which he took out OF the stable
about shutdown on Friday night last. As he
mounted and rode out he sung out TO those In
tell them I've gone to New York;
On the same afternoon he told some of his
acQuaintances that he was going to ST. Mary's
county.
Within a month or two back he spent much
of his time with Booth, and il seemed to his
friends that he had suddenly become infatuated
with Booth, and no longer than Tuesday last
one of his acluaintances asked him how he had
become 80 thick with Booth; to which he re =.

EYestcrday the Secretary Of War, without
instructions of any kind. committed TO COL
Lafayette G. Baker, of the secret service, the
stark corpse of Wilkes Booth. The secret SER
vice never fulfilled its voltion more secretively
''what have you done with the body!" said
to Baker. "That Is known" he answered. "to

will not tell you where. The only man who
knows is sworn TO silence. Never till the great
trun,peter comes shall the grave Of Booth be
discovered" And this is true. Last night,
the 9th of April, small row bon received
the carcass of the murderer; two men were in
il; they carried the body off into the darkness,
and out of that darkness II will never return
In the darkness, like his great crime. may Il

manacles. The earth may have opened to give
Il that silence and forgiveness which man will
never give its memory. The fishes may swim
around il, or the daisies grow white above II (;
but we shall never know. Mysterious, incom-
prehensible, uuattainable, like the dim times
through which we live and think upon as IL we
only dreamed them in perturbid fever, the rs

Another account, the correspondent Of the
Boston Advertiser, says:
After the head and heart, which have been
deposited in the army medical museum in
this city, had been removed, the corpse was
placed in charge of two men, who after va
rious movements calculated to battle imper.i-
hent curiosity, dug grave in a little spot OF
ground close to tho penitentiary. where for
some years feons have been buried. Booths
body was deposited here and the earth over
it was smoothed and carefully sodded over

SherInan's Mistake.

The Richmond Wing states that when
Grant informed Sherman Of the disapprov.
al BY the government Of his armisscc. and
tho reason therefor, Sherman acknowledged
the mistake. and said that the language used
respecting slavery written by Breckinridge)
did not express what he (Sherman) intended
and what he thought was plain. He said
that no had just received the Richmond pa
pers containing the permission for the rebel
Virginia Legislature to meet, and he took
that permission as the policy of the govern
mens respecting State Legislatures. Hence
his error.
We are relieved somewhat. but not entire
ly, BY this explanation, which Is doubtless
semi official from Sherman. Tho mistake
which this great commander made at the
commencement Of the war. has chung to him
until this, to him. almost fatal faur pas
Of carrying on the war TO restore the Union
as il was. II has been the mistake which has
dragged down the Democratic party almost
below plummet reach, an error it may be OF
the head rather than the heart. but neverthe-
less an error, which has injured those who
shut their eyes to the onward march Of great
events, and adopted 1t, more than the coun
try. From the first opcn net OF war it be
came evident that the country could never be
restored to peace, until it should be shorn
of the dis,racting elements which had warped
and marred our beautiful fabric. This was
the axiom written all over the character Of
the rebellion. that the same state Of society.
the same degencrating influences which had
Matched the accused treason, when restored
would again produce the like effects. And
we do not err IN stating that the only plan
of Reconstruction. Of which we shall speak
at length hereafter. must be based upon the
acknowledgment Of this fact.
Blind-folded BY their prcdjudices many a
nan has made that mistake, and committed
those errors, which he may not atone for in
this life. and for which he will not be forgiy-
en- in this world, until he has passed to the
next.

FIRST PARTING OF PRESIDENT LrScoLS.-The
following words of farewell were uttered to his
ncighbors. Feb. IL, 1881, when President Lin.
coin left them as he started for Washington:
Mr. FRIENDS: No one not in my position, can
appreciate the sadness feel at this parting.
To this people owe all that Tam. Here have
lived moro than quarter Of q century; here
my children were born, and here one of them
lies buried. know not how soon shall SEQ
you again. A duty devolves upon me which
Is, perhaps, greater than has deyolved upon
any other man sincc the days OF Washington.
He never would have succeeded except for the
aid OF Divine Power. upon which he at all tunes
relied. I feel that / cannot succeed without
the same Divine aid which sustained him, and
on the same Almighty Being place my roll
ance for support; add hope you, my blends,
will all pray that | may receive that Divine as
sistance, without which cannot succeed, but
with which success Is certain. Again bid you
oil an aifcctionate farewell.

The WAY TO Flypu THE GuEanlLLAs.-

The WAY TO FINISH THE GuERRlLLAs.-
Now that all regular warfare is at an end, 1t
is the duty Of the government promptly to
suppress the rowing bands Of gucrrillus who
arestill scattered through the Southern States,
preying alike upon friend and foe, II indeed
they have any friends among the Southern
people, who must necessarily be the greatest
sufferers by their predatory raids. The way
to finish these fellows is to declare them out.
laws, and treat them rs such whenever they
are captured. They can no longer DO re-
garded in any other light than us brigands
Brigandage is Spanish and Italian institu
ton, which may do very we'll in Mexico. and
in portions Of Italy, but is not suited to this
country and cannot flourish here. The sol.
diers of the guerrilla chief Mosby have des-
erted him, but Mosby himself refuses to sur.
render. We understand that General Grant
issued orders to Gen. Hancock to give him
one hour in which to surrender, and if he re.
fused, to declare him outl.wed, and deal out
to him the penalty of outlawry. This order
is probably an indication OF the course the
government intends to pursue toward all tho
rest of the guerrillas. and 1t Is the proper
way to get rid OF them.-MeU York Herald.

TIE POISONING or ANDREW JonssoS.-There
can he hut little doubtleft in the minds OF those
who have attentively perused the details OF the
plot to assassinate the leaders OF the G''yern-
ment, that Andrew johnson, who has cndui ed
no much undeserved obloquy for his singular
ALTERATION TN the 4th of March. was on that
occasion under the influence, not of spirituous
liquors, nor either of mere disturbing drug.
intended only to ,lisfgurc him. but Of deadly
poison, furtivcly insulated In his drink with
the view to take his life. II Is In proof that the
assassinations were To have been perpetrate on
the 4th Of March. and that Booth, the chief rs.
sassin. had posted himself In q position where
Mr.. Lincoln must pass osely by, and II was
doubtless expected that about tho time when
the President should have persisted by the pts
toll. the new Vice President would have expired
In the Capitol from the effects Of the potion he
had taken. Probably this view of the matter
has never struck the mind Of Mr.. Johnson,
and Il Is not to be supposed that under tho
mystery Of that strange occurrence, which
must have puzzled him more than anybody
else, hc would care to aludc to the affair with
any attempts ut explanation that might have
been misunderstood. The disclosure Of the in.
structjons distributed among the assassns.
that ''they wero Mt liberty to use the blade. the
pistol, or the bowl, but they must bear In mind
ihe latter had once failei," seems to be conclu.
sivc upon this point, and will doubtless suggest
some important recollections TO the Presidents
mind. Ills powerful nature triumphcd over
the Internal draueht and thus, In addition to
an invaluable life being saved to the nation, We
aio gratifed In the conviction, that ono who
has always been sober. self respecting states
man, II now provideniially relieved from even q
passing cloud on his carecr.-WfikeS Spirit.
