Burial.

raft, and with this occurrence the story
Of Booths burial has come TO light II
is thus given by the Star "The body
arrived off the navy yard, and was placed
on The Monitor The Surgeon General,
during the post mortem examination, re.
moved the fractured vertebre of the neck
only. About two o'clock on the day of
its arrival, the body was wrapped in gray
army blanket, placed in boat, in which
was an officer Of the Monitor, with four
sailors, General Baker and two detec-
tives. The boat proceeded down the
stream, and finally stopped at the lower
Arsenal wharf on which the. body was
placed, after which the boat returned
TO the Monitor, leaving Gen. Baker and
his assistant in the Arsenal grounds.
Some few persons employed at the Ar
senal saw the body lying there during
the evening, but reports being put out
that it was the body of soldier who had
been drowned, but little attention was
paid TO it, Two men who bad occa-
sion to move the body having got
some. blood on their hands, came
near spreading the report that it was
Booths body, but being admonished
to wash the blood off and keep their
mouths shut, did so, and but few persons
became aware that the body was other
than that Of the drowned soldier. The
body remained on the wharf until after
nightfall, when preparations we're made
for its interment Secretary Stanton,
General Dyer, Chief of Ordnance, and
Col. Benton, Commandant of the Post,
were on the ground, as well as General
Baker and his detectives. A spot was
selected in the wareroom. The grave
being ready, the body was inclosed in an
ammunition box, lowered into the grave,
aud it was filled. The brick flooring
being mostly replaced and the surplus
earth removed TO another portion of the |
room. The burial having been accom-.
plished, the windows were boarded up |
and the door made secure, Secretary |
Stanton taking the key with him. This
key was kept at the War Department
until few weeks ago, when it was re-
turned to the Arsenal officers. All the
bodies now rest in common grave in
one. Of the warehouses, inside the
Arsenal grounds.

the bidding as animated as usual. All
the cotton offered was of low grades,
and prices ranged from 25ic to 26Bc;
middling, 274@28c. This cotton was
en- route to Louisville, but the own
ers, who were on board the Sam. Orr,
stopped the cotton here, believing
this to be as good a market as any
they could find, and better place to
purchase goods.
p In this connection, we learn that
Messrs. Harper & Wright have asso-
ciated with them in business. Mr..
Thad. p. Gibson, late of the firm of
Jones & Co., Paducah, an experienced
cotton dealer, who has an extensive
acquaintance in the Tennessee River
country, which will enable him to
draw to this city large trade from
that direction. We refer to the ad-
vertisement Of this new firm else
where. - vsa si,8as ID bGo.t
