as Havana is practically in a state of siege,

that the insuree eents had appe lred there, the
plantation hands had fed, and work on the

raj look was given the box after it had been
thus partially cleansed. 1t was then bo1ne by
four soldiers on their shoulders to the lttle red
express wagon, into which it was placed gent
ly and almost impressvely. A blanket was
thrown across and carefully secured under

Wilkes Booth was borne on to tho city, fiually
in the custody OF his kindred, to rest forever
by the side Of his father. the great actor Of

whose death constituted in themselves the
greatest tragedy OF tho time. The streets of
the capital were crowded with people coming

no attention, for four men and q small box
covered with stable blanket wero not cacu-

ground, aud the long war of the Govern nnent
OF the United States against corpse will be
ended.

TIE PRESIDENT ELECT
A PEN and Ink Sketch of General Grant.

An editorial in the Religious Herald, Of Rich
mond, written, it is understood, by the dis
tingulshed DR.. Fuller. of Baltimore, Of the
Baptist Church, gives the following WOW of
the President elect and his probable policy:
The future President has one OF the most
compact and vigorous frames, and sooms to be
lmperturDnby serene, self-possessed, and not
only retlcont but secretive. At our time OF
life we ought TO know something Of men, and
we canuoG De mistaken in saying that he is
unassuming, modest and really kind-hearted
AS to his soldierly qualities we ara no judges;

and where every man and woman is on orator;

not only ''does not rise to make a speech"-as
the tedious spe9ch-makers always say--but
who will not make a speech. He has at least
the WISE prudence OF one President, Of whom
tho elder Adams remarked: "Ihe great differ
enee between General Washington and myself
is that he knows how to hold mis- tongue aad

after some little intercourse with til ese visitors.
II 49, that General Grant considers the war as
ended, ana means officially aud really so to
treat the matter; that he wishes to hear no
more about ''rebelllon," and t'treason," and
"loyaaty," as terms OF elimination and recrmi-
nation: but sincerely desires to promote the
best welfare OF the whole Union, acting justly,
generously, magnanimously; and that ne

The disturbances in New Zealand are to be re-
GREETED but the Queen is sure that prudence
and moderation OH the part OF the government
will prevent recurrence Of such unhappy
events. The estimates which will be laid be-
fore the House Of Commons by the ministers
arc framed on the basis OF economy, coupled
with efficiency in the administration ct the
service. The continued suppression Of the
operation Of the writ of habcas corpus in Ire
land is regarded us unnecessary. The coolest
astical arrangements for Ireland are to be con-
sidered by Parliament and the legislation for
their final adjustment will make large demands
upon the wisdom Of both houses on this sub
ject." The Queen concludes as follows II am
persuaded that careful regard will be had to
the interests involved and to the welfare OF
religion, aud that through the application Of
the principles OF equal Justice to tho question
before them, Parliament will secure the undi-
vided feeling Of tho people of Ireland on the
side OF loyalty and law, aud effaco the memory
Of past contensions, and cherish the sympa-
thies Of an alfectionate people,"
Accounts OF the state Of affairs in Paraguay
have been received from both sides. and are,
as usual, contradictory. The Brazillans claim
that the war is ended, as their forces now per-
manently occupy Asunclon, and the inhabi-
tants who, on their approach, by order of Lo-
PEI, fled to the interior, are returning to their
homes. It is positively stated that President
Lopez has abandoned the country and gone to
Bolivia. On the other hand, accounts from
Paragnayan sources represent that tho army OF
Lopez, after The battles at Vleta and Angos-
tura, retired in comparatively good order, and
is still capable Of making formidable resist
anca. The Paraguayans base their hopes Of
preserving their independence AMI retrieving
their losses on violent dlssensl ons which they
say have brokeu out among the generals Of the
allied troops.
