ICoAIMUNICATED.
THERE'S PEACE THROUGHOUT THE
LAND.
BY J. t. {.

BY j. t. c.
NO more we'll have the clash of steel,
Or hear of battles fought,
Or read the sad yet glorious news,
Of victories dearly bought,
Then run aloll that dear old flag,
Beneath its folds Wen stand,
And shout and sing our songs of praise.
There's peace throughout the land
CHoRus.-Then rally round that starry flag,
Beneath it's folds wen stand,
And bless the happy day that
brought
Us peace throughout the land
'Tis sad to think of those who fell,
That dear old flag to save;
Our fathers, brothers, loved ones gone,
Theirs is a soldiers grave;
We prayed they might again return,
To take us by the hand,
And tell of daring deeds which brought
Uspeace throughout the land
Chorus. Then rally, sc.
Our hopes were vain; that vacant chair
speaks volumes to the heart,
of mother, sister, maiden, wife,
Their tears again will start
To think the one they loved so well,
Who's welcome home they'd planned,
Is gonel-he gave his life to bring
Us peace throughout the land.
CHoRus.-Then rally, &c.
Our flag again shall wave,
Oh, glorious thought beneath its folds
There will not be a slavel
Our joys would have been sweeter still,
Had not traitors hand,
Struck down our noble chief who brought
Us peace throughout the land.
CHoRus.-Then rally, &c

The Great Crime of All, and its Eff
feet on the North.

That the great crime which has depriv-
cd this nation of its executive head, every
citizen of true friend, and the world OF
a benefactor. was deliberate and premedi-
tated, organized and approved by rebels
themselves, no one now disputes or doubts
The preparations for the murder of Presl-
dent Lincoln bear unmistakable evidence
of skill, industry and perseverance to &C
complish the object. Secretary Stanton
telegraphs on Tuesday that the war de-
partment has information that the Presl-
dents murder was planned in Canada and
approved by the rebel government at
Richmond; also that the assassin who at
tempted to take Mr.. Stewards life is one
of the ST. Adams raiders.
New light has been thrown on this
browning act of rebel diabolism by an Off
cial document found in Richmond by some
ofour troops since its capture. This doc
ument was bill offered in secret session
of the rebel congress, Jan. 80, 1865, es-
tabli~hing ':Sccret Service Bureau" fol
the employment OF secret agents g either
in the Confederate States or within the
enemv'S lines, or in any forei on country %

@anize such a system, FOR THE APPLICA-
Tlox OF NEW MEANSOF WARFARE
APPROVED. and of secret service agen-
cieS, as NAV tend best to secure the OBJ
jectS of the establishment of the bureau -
This bill throws light not only upon the
atrocious murder of President Lincoln, but
upon the ST. Adams raid. the attempt to
burn New York city and the piracies on
the lakes. This ''new means of warfare
undoubtedly was robbery, arson and MUIR
der.
The effect of the assassination upon the
people of the North is gratifying to ever!
loyaI heart The people are united agar
as at the firing on Fort Sumter. Men
who have heretofore opposed the admins
tration. and even those who have sympa,
thized with secession, now denOunce this
diaLolical and cowardly attempt at the
Nations life: and President johnson ha:
no iirmer friends to-day, if we can believe
their assertions, than the old democrats a
the North. If the North can be agar
united the great sacrifice that has beer
made will not be in vain.

the terrible and infamous assassination of
the President. Aside from the great
crime, which cannot contemplate without
feelings of adherence and INDIGNATION. no
greater calamity could have befallen our
country, when our minds and hearts were
looking for speedy peace. say Our coun-
try, for now feel that this is my country,
and personally l mourn the loss of Mr.
Lincoln, and feel that the people OF my
state will condemn the crime and bitterly
feel the calamity. trust in God that no
respectable southern man, when all is
brought to light, will be found in any
accessory to the hellish crime, but, on the
contrary, that all will feel the utter abhor-
renee of the act which it merits from all
men,"
COL {. F. Baker, a rebel prisoner al
Cairo, says in letter to the commandant
of the post: eff any completely of the
confederate authorities can he traced to
the cowardly assassination of President
Lincoln, am as far on my way South
as wish to 90. May the just vengeance
of heaven follow the assassins and their
accomplices, until they are in the hands
of the authorities and executed. is the

Rewards for the Murderers.

The Secretary of War has published an
order offering reward Of fifty thousand
dollars for the arrest of the murderer of
Mr. Lincoln, in addition to any reward
offered heretofore This makes total Of
rewards offered for Booth of more than
100000. twenty-five thousand dollars
are also offered for the arrest of G.. A. At
zcrot, and the same for David c. Harold,
both accomplices of Booth. Liberal re-
wards will be paid for any information
which will aid in the arrest of either of
these criminals All persons harboring or
assisting these murderers will be dealt
with as accomplices. All citizens are Or
dered to give their personal aid to the eff
forts of the authorities to arrest the muir
derers.
1t is slight consolation to know that
Atzerot has been captured, and is now in
safe custody.

Booth net at Large.

Up to the time of writing this the as
sassin of President Lincoln is still at large.
There are many rumors respecting him.
some of which have an air of probability
about them. and Others hardly have that.
One of the last stories from Washington is
that his horse fell with him before he got
away, breaking his leg, and that he is
now concealed in that city. We certain
" hope this is true, for then there would
be a great probability of capturing him.
1t is more generally believed, however,
that he got across the Potomac, and was
helped off into the Confederacy, may be
by Mosby's guerillas; and that ere this
he is with jeff. Davis, helping him off in
to Mexico with his plumber of the Rich
mond banks. Another theory is that
Booth has gone to Canada. One thing is
certain, the authorities are doing their ut
most to capture this murderer, and We
think with a fair prospect of success; al.
though it is doubtless true that the way O
escape was as Systematically planned as
was the crime, and the evidence Of thu
latter is abundant, and growing more Sc
every day.

Is Gen. Sherman Crazy?

y newspaper squib has been the rounds
lately something to this effect: Sherman
stood by Grant when he was drunk, and
Grant stood by Sherman when he was
crazy, and now they stand by each other.
The events of the past week have suggest
ed to most minds something wrong in
Sherman, and the most charitable conclu-
sion is that he is insane.
We elsewhere give a full account of
Gen. Shcrman's trade with Johnston re-
speeding an amnesty, and the prompt and
decided ground taken by the President and
Cabinet. We have little room to add
comments. This action of Sherman COM
pletely astounded the people. 1t was so
uncalled for, unexpected and humiliating
that the people burned with Indignation.
The only real danger to be anticipated,
however, after the very decided action of
the Cabinet. Is the event limited at in Mr.
StantOn'S telegram, that Sherman had Or
dered Gen. Stoneman to withdraw his
force from Salisbury. This would be in
effect opening the back gate. of the yard
IN which .)ohnston's toYes are cooped up,
and saying to his almost captured army,
''skedaddle..' We hope to learn that
StOneman is not Withdrawn, and that
now Gen. Grant has gone to the front.
matters will be Strengthened out, and
Johnston will be obliged to make an I'M
conditional surrender. A despatch from
Grant announces his arrival at Raleigh,
and the termination of the truce between
the two armies. Further intelligence from
this quarter will be looked for with great
interest.
A despatch from Washington the 25th,
hints at something base and Intentional in
the late action of Gen. Sherman. These
hints arc grounded on a letter published in
the London Times of April 5, which letter
was written in Richmond, and foretells
something respecting Sherman like what
has happened. We forbear further COM
ments hoping that a thorough investiga-
ton will honorably discharge this great
general of modern times from either in
sanity, imbecility or treachery.
