OTTAWA, APRIL 20, 1865.


Gen. Joe Johnston, commander of the last
large re,e army east Of the Mississippi river,
surrendered 10 Gen. Sherman on the 25th
ult., on the terms grantedto Gen. Lee by Gen.
Grant. When Sherman ammo inccd 20 John
ston that the former terms agreed upon be-
tween them had been disapproved at WASH
ington, and that, unless he accepted the
terms granted to Lee he must resume hostili
ties at once. Johnston offered to accept those
terms if JEFF. Davis, Benjamin, &c, were in
cluded in tie arrangement. This sherman
said be had no authority to grant, and John
ston must accept Lees terms at once bright.
So Johnston "came down. without another
word.
The surrender embraces all the rebel trooIs
between the Roanoke and the Chattohoochie.
There are no other organized rebel forces cas-;
Of the Mississippi, save small an dilapidated
fragment that recently escaped from Mobile,
and Few bands o. guerrillas. IF these 90
not now quickly disband they will be disposed
of in another andquite effective way. Kirby
Smith is also reported to be ready to surrender
his commandwes. of the Nj sissippi, and no
dosbt will do so as soon as formal demand
shall be made. The last battle has been
fought. The war isover The republic is

B ,Lo ArrExPT OF REBEL EAM,--It has
been known that for over year past quite
formidable rebel ram, known as the Webb,
has been lurking up the waters of Red
r,ve-, where, before the fall of Yicksburg, she
had some pretty sharp encounters with some
of our Z unboats. Finding little to do In that
region OF late. the commander and crew OF
this piratIcal craft conceived the bold plan
OF running out of Red River down the Miss
issippi past New Orleans, and getting into
the Gulf, where they proposed to set her up
as a first class pirate or privatecr. She left
Re- River on the 2Sth ult p, past all the
federal sunboats on the river, the batteries at
Port Hudson, Baton Rouge, &c, and in
broad day light passed New Oriean:, first
carrying the stars and stripes at her mast
head, bnt as she got below the city, hoisted
tie rebel naa. Several federal gunboats
started after Ler. When a few miles above
Fort St. Philip, the machinery of tie Webb
got ont of order, and her capture now being
neyitab,e, she was b'owl ~ and deserted,
u, ,st of those on board taking to the woods.
She had done no image except cutting the
Telegraph lines rs she past down The river.
She was one of the fastest craft on the west,
ern waters, and bat for the accident 10 her
machinery, would doubtless have made good
her escape to the gulf.

Funcal Display.

The pageant in Chicago on Monday, on the
occasion of the arrival Of the remains of
Presi ent Liacoln In that city, was perhaps
the grandest of the kind ever wiines cd in
this country. The funeral procession was
many miles in length, and while every bust
ness place in the city was closed, nearly every
house was draped in mourning. Tie body
lay in state a. the Court House from Monday
morning until Tuesday evening, anu was vlsi-
ted by $4,000 people.
On Tuesday evening the cor;ege left Chi
caso, and reached its final destination at
Springfield at o'clock on Wednesday morn
ing. At every station on the way, though
in the midst of night, vast crowds pressed to
the cars aud evinced the deepest interest in
the precious freight on board. The crowd
that awaited the train at Springfield was I'M
precedeuted in the history of that city, and
the decorations were equal to any witnessed
on the entire route.
The body lay in state at the State House
until about ~ o'clock OIL Thursday morning
when the coffin was closed. and the prepara-
tons being completed, shortly after the last
sad procession commenced its march toward
that last resting place. from whence the sa-
cred remains will be no more disturbed, and
where they will fJrever be shut out from NOR
tai e-e. The order OF march was taken up
in strict accordance with the programme, and
nournfully and silently, save with the strains
of the funeral dirge, the sad cortege filed Oh
It's way through long lines, numbering thou
sInds OF uncovered spectators. The whole
arrangement, were con dLcted under tie d
rection of General J. 4. McClernarid, as CHEZ
Marshal, and nothing of the slightes, charlc
ter occurred to mar the harmony.
The exercises at the grave were interesting
and impressive in the extreme. and, though
the day was warm, q hot sun blazing down
upon the uncovered heads of the assembled
multitude throughout the whole time, nc
movement was male, scarce q whisper heard
but oil listened with a revcreniial awe.

Sherman.

1t must be AZ m tied, that the conc u ion so
hastily jumped at by the northern press, al
most without distinction OF party, a week ago
in reference to Gen. SlIerman's agreement
with the rebel Gen. Johnston, which agreement
was so Indignantly annulled at Washington
did the hero of the Car na' great injustice.
We publish that agreement in another col
uEin, with Siantons objections TO 1t. The
gist of those objections is, that Sherman, by
his agreement, in efie t recognised the rcdel
state guvernm ats AMI these governments
under that ARIA ',gemen;, sal, Stanton, might
90 OF. at once and recognise or re-establish
slavery.
When Grant went to Sherman and pointed
out to him this Objectionable feature, Sher-
man said at once, "Ah! | see my mistake
1 ought to have had it put down in black and
white that slavery is dead. We all agreed
that such was the case. Johnson and Brock
enridge admitted it; but it should have been
put in the paper And truly that was Sher'
mans only mistake. Had the death of slave.
ry been included in his agreement, it would
have been changed very little if any. AS to
the recognition of the rebel states, Sherman
sad be supposed, from the proclamation of
Gen. Weitzel, and permit of Lincoln, for the
assembling of the rebel Legislature of Vir-
yinia, that such was to be the policy of the
Government. Though he might not approve
it himself, yet he did rot feel at liberty to de
part from that policy.
As 10 the sinister motives ascribed by the
radical press to Sherman in making this
agreement. the whole matter is disposed ofin
a word. Shcrman's whole agreement was
left subject % approval at Washington. There
was thus thus no pretence for the charge OF
the assumption Of extraordinary power by
Sherman. He did nothing but what COM
manders have done every day-propose GER
tain things for the approval or rejection of
their supe,iors in auth ority.
When Grant reached Sherman, and heard
his explanation, lie saw at once that the latter
was actuatel By none but the purest and most
patriotic motives, and directing him to modi-
tv his action to conform to notions at Wash
in.ton, turned over the whole matter to Sher
man, and returned to Washington, assured
that the country's cause and honor was as
safe in Sherman's hands as his own.

EUROPEAN advices grow nore interesting
as our war news grows duller. The news is
to April 23d. European papers and politi-
clans have heard of the fall Of Richmond and
generally regard it as the end OF the rebellion.
American securities consequently are in de-
mand, with an upward tendency. The Lon
don papers naturally jump to the conclusion
that, as the rebellion Is suppressed, Uncle
Sam will now be looking after affairs in Mex
leo, ard they have report that Louis Ma
poleon has made proposition to England to
make an offensive and defensive treaty for
mutual protection in case ofattack on Mexico
or Canada. The car OF Russia is on a visit
TO Paris.
