appropriate and timely. Abraham Lincoln has
died for the country, precisely as if be had been
I shot down while serving in her armies. No one
who now gives his dolarcan be suspected ofseel,-

any manner serve his own private ends Mr..
Lincoln has been paid So, 900 year in green
backs; which is hardly more than halfthc value
he would have received in time Of peace, while
not merely his lalors and anxieiies but TIE
claims On his hospitality, the cost Of his house
keeping, have been enormously increased. Just
as be had surmounted the difficulties Of his posi-
ton, and had prospect Of better times before
him, he is stricken dead by an assassin, and tie
SlC0, 600 for a second tenn that tie People had
voted him goes TO his successor. Not sympathy,
nor benevoience, but simple justice, require
that this sum be made up to Bis family, without
regard to their circumstances, whereof we know
and wish to know nothing. We trust 10 dollar
will be given to this fund by any but those
who would rather pay it than not-who feel it
a privilege to place The family Of orr great and
good leader beyond the possibility Of want.
We hope soon to hear Of some one having been
appointed to receive contributions in this City.
We can build all requisite monuments for our
own satisfaction; but let US first pay our debt.

Tie repeatedly reported surrender Of John

"a queer bit Of diplomacy, whence You can
hardly guess whether Johnston was to surrender

'of its approval at Washington, it has Of course
been disapproyed, and Gen. Grant sent down
pos,-haste TO Raleigh to take charge Of affairs
in North Carolina and preclude any more blum
ders.
But this msstep only sets in more striking
light the necessity, the urgency that exists Tor
/ the dispersion Of The well-drossed mobs that
chase each other into the audience-chamber Of
. our new President and there insist on spCutinq
at him ana making him talk to them in reply.
If there ever were time for such eXer-
/ cises and exhibitions, there surely is
none now. The people Of the rebellion.
States are anxiously awaiting the terms
/ Of Peace and Reconstruction which it is the
Presidents imperative duty to prescribe and
announce. They want to know which among
them are to be exposed to the penalties of bafled
treason, and which may safely return to and re-
main with their families. The sowing and
planting season is rapidly passing, yet Industry
remains completely disorganized, apprehensiye,
Edistrustful, anxiously awaiting deliverance Oh
doom. The Freedmen are deserting the planta'
stions where they are needed and budding
| in the cities, where they are already
lin excess, and where there is little
or nothing to do. The Public Debt is still
rapidly sccumulating; our armies arc burning
and otherwise destroying millions worth OF
property that is sorely needed, and which We
shall wish unburnt few weeks hence Every.
thing calculated to alarm and disturb the South

We understand that the Colored Men Of ON
City have been practically refused apace in Tho
grand procession tomorrow in honor Of the ser
vices and memory Of President Lincoln. The
grief of this class is probably deemed too rea
and hearty to bear any part in a mourning
pageant devised and engineered by men whC
always opposed and never even profcssed tc
honor and respect our late President until they
we're quite sure lie was dead.
We trust the Blacks will not take this reiusa
Ito heart. So long as a draa impended over ON
ICity. they were vouchsafed the amplest oppor
tunitics to I'll the ranks Of that quite earnest
procession which was constantly moving hence
on Richmond and Charleston in response to IN,
Presidents calls for defenders Of the Nationa
integrity. Should moro soldiers he wanted, W,
warrant that large share Of those who parad,
tomorrow will stand back and give every negro
a fair chance to 60 in. And a. the Blacks o
our City Go not need any display OF banners
notices. regalia, &c, TO convince anybody tha
bicy grieye for tie loss OF our good President
we suggest that they need not take to hear
their exclusion from the parade Of Tomorrow.

PEEsJDENT LENCOLN's FUNERAL
IN CANADA.

Ii is, we believe, the common belief of all th'
European residents in the United States, tina
no country of Europe las ever witnessed any
thing approaching the exhibition Of mourning
throughout the United States On the death o
President Lincoln. The funeral services IL
British America are no less remarkable. There
is probably no precedent in the worlds history
of whole country paying such tribute OF homo
to the memory of the head of foreign nation
In almost every town Of Canada TIE places o
business were closed on Wednesday from IL to
p; the churches were throDged for tho celebra
ton of the funeral rites, public buildings an(
private houses were largely draped il
mourning, and all voices united il
the manifestation Of grief at the loss sustained
by the United States and Of horror at thu
work of the assassin. Previously, the tow
councils with very creditablc unanimity ha(
passed resolutions Of sympathy with the family
Of the murdered President aud with tho people
IOf the United States. We have had, in th'
Icourse Of this war, to register many acts Of I'M
'fiiendliness toward the United States on thu
part Of a considerable portion Of the press ant
the people Of British America. II is gratifying
to acknowledge this expression Of sympathy OF
the part of our neighbors in our great nationa

GOV. SEWARD.

Our Washington advice, while they confirm
our belief that Gov. Seward will survive the as.
sassin's wounds, do not render il probable that
he viii soon, if ever, be prepared to resume tie
discharge OF his official duties. His previous in
juries were severe, and the murderous blows o.
the liih inst. have aggravated their evil conse
qucnccs. At the very best, Gov. Stewards res
toraton to bodily health and mental adaptation

The World, some days since put forth the nm
timely AID maladroit suggestion that Gov
Seward Withdrawal from The Cabinet would
facilitate and basloa the return OF the seeded
States to the Union. Apart from its irritating
tendency in view Of the recent murderou,
attacks, VIC cannot believe this to be true
Gov. Seward has said and done nothing since h,
entered the Cabinet to render himself special,
obnoxious to the Rebels, and his leaning toward
q generous policy Of forbearance and forgive
ness, to any extent consistent with the National
integrity and honor, is known in oil well-in.
formed circles. The reyolted South hasccrtainly
nothing to gain by Gov. Stewards retirement
from the Cabinet, and it is now neither in posi-

it must lose in reality in order to gain petty
semblanco of triumph. We trust Coy. s., before
retiring. may be able to inform the Powers O.
