We shall endcavour to give a brief ac-
count of what transpired here on last
Sunday and mention In how far our Sug-
gestiou to the community % lower their
flags at half mast, as a token of respect
for the departed dead, was received. The
suggestion was pretty generally, but not
entirely followed. Civilians in general
lowered their flags, and if we except the
American and Italian ConsuIates, we saw
no other ConsulateS lower their flags I; it
is true, the Haitien and Venezuelan Con-
%sulates, the very morning after the first
intelligence reached here, lowered their
flags at half mast, aud may be considered
it not necessary to lower them a second
time. In the harbour all the American
vessels lowered their flags, and prominent
among other foreign shipping we noticed
the Mail Steam Packet Robert Todd and
the British ship Regent we also noticed
that at the Royal Mail Steam Packet
Company's office, the flag was lowered at
half mast. On the whole we consider that
our proposal was more than amply accept
ed and we feel obliged to those who did
so. At AU Saints Church, we learn that
the ReV'd E. 0. Roach, delivered a most
affecting sermon on the melancholy death
Of Mr.. Lincoln, and in the most touching
manner explained the many good and
great qualities that adorned his life. At
the meeting Of the "Mutual Sympathy
Society" which was publicly announced
for Sunday last, we ascertain that the
arrangements to give expression to the
feelings of The Society with regard to the
lamentable death Of Mr.. Lincoln, were We

sung, the words Of which were most APP
propriate to the occasion +; then was read

The intelligence of the assassination
Of President Lincoln caused a thrill of
horror throughout Europe. In the Bri-
fish Parliament, in the French Senate, in
the Italian aud Prussian Chambers of
Deputies, addresses expressive of sorrow
at the event have been adopted. Even
in Liverpool, the very focus Of Secession
ism in England, the act has been eXecrat-
ed. One fellow ventured a "Hurrah'' on
