U. =. CourtS..Arrest of GOV. Aiken..
Cabinet RumOrs-.Fl1ght of Hamp.
ton and Breckinridge.

Nav YORK, May 2.-Herald's Wash
ington special says Chief Justice Chase
has gone south to reorganize the United
States Courts.
The Times Charleston correspondent
says Gov. Aiken was arrested by order of
President johnson, and that his arrest was
based upon his refusal to take the oath of
amnesty.
The Worlds special says it is UNDER
stood that Messrs. Seward, Stanton and
Welles have indicated desire to be re-
lieved of their respective portfolios on the
1st of July. The two former will proba-
bly, be succeeded by Charles Francis Ad-
ans and Preston King, and the latter by
j. W. Forney.
The same correspondent says Gen. Wade
Hampton was the only General who re-
fused to be included in Johnston's surren-
der. Johnston promptly relieved him,
putting Gen. Baker in command of all
his cavalry.
Hampton went off with jeff. Davis and
Breckenridge, endeavoring to reach Mex
leo.

How the Fall of Richmond was
Received by Napoleon.

New YORK, May 1.-The following news
is by the steamer Scotia, which left Liver
pool on the afternoon of the 23d ult.
The Morning Adcertiser asserts that on
receipt of the news of the fall of Rich
mond, Napoleon proposed to Lord Cor
wally, British ambassador to Paris, that
England and France should, by treaty of
alliance offensive and defensive, make
common cause and assist each other with
all their land and sea forces in the event
of an attack upon either Canada or Mex
leo. The Advertiser denounces the
scheme, and trusts that inquiry will be
made into the truth of it on the le assem-
bling of Parliament.
The statement must be taken for what it
is worth, as it is not referred to by any
other journal.
The belief that the struggle in the South
is about over continues to gain strength,
and American securities, as well as cotton,
are very buoyant and active in anticipa-
ton of peace.
The Army and Macy Gazette thinks it
impossible that organized resistance can be
prolonged.

THE CONSPIRACY.
Its Magnitude...Trial Of Harold.
Lieut. DOugherty Promoted.


!, NEW YORK, May 1.-The Times Wash
lngton special says that during the pro.
gress of the preliminary examination as to
the assassination conspiracy, arrests are
continually being made, and thus far the
whole number taken into custody will reach
nearly thirty-fve.
The trial of these confederates will be
conducted, however, before a military
commission, and if upon this hearing the
same facts are brought out that have been
disclosed in the preliminary examination,
Tie magnitude OF the plot will astonish the
whole country
1t is not true, as reported, that Harold
has been tried. His trial is set for to-
morrow.

THE ASSASSINATION.
Southern Opinion...The People Of
North Carolina at Least not Respon.
eible.


North Carolina at Least nOt Respon.
sible.
The Ncrth Carolina journals deplore the
deed of blood which assassinated the Pres
ident, and beg the NORTH not to believe
that such an act stands anywhere ap-
proved. The Raleigh Standard of the
18th says:
Abraham Lincoln was the best friend the
South had in all the North. We pray God that
his untimely and cruel death may not add to
the miseries of our afflicted State. North Car
olina had no agency in the awful deed. We
wash our hands of this blood. outlines; and
we call heaven to witness that we deplore it as
the saddest event in the history of this cont.
nent. His assassins will be pursued by the
stern purpose of the avenger of blood. and no
country, however remote, will be able to shield
them. The secession of the cotton States,
which commenced in crime has ended in as
sassination. We thank God that we are not
responsible for either the commencement or
the termination of this horrid business. We
tremble tor the consequences; but we assure
the officers and men Of the Union armies. and
the people Of the entire North. that the great
mass OF the people of North Carolina and the
South deeply deplore this act and we sincerely
trust that they win not be held responsible for
the INFAMOUS act OF the base assassins.
