Aud I feared that these rebellious heart* could Hot concur and their heads plan hellbh deeds of dutkness, but did not think the in strument could be found (or so vile and cow ardly an act as was perpetrated in Washing ton the nigat of the 14th. Hell Itself would blush at its own purity in comparison with such an act, and the devil resign his sceptre 1 1 disgust before the authors of such treason; treason culminating in the cowardly assassin ation of the Chief Magistrate of the Nation. For the sake of hum mity I wiil not believe for a wom<-nt there lives a mans» vile as to endorse the act; and yet hid it been done twelve montiis ago, I fear more than one city in the 9 >uth would have comment -rated the event by torch-light processions and loud buzsas for Jeff Davis and the Southern Con federacy. But mat day has passed, and a just, libe ral aud maguauimous government will wel come b ick the masses of an ill advbed peo ple, not holding them responsible for the acts of those hell deserving traitors who have produced such untold misery, and “whose names expanding with their growing crime, shall float distasteful down the stream of time.” Thi3 diabolical assassination, but shows the popular aff-cltou for Mr. LiucolD, and brings etcrn il infamy, not only upon its authors, but the ca tse they desire to avenge. A just and g«o 1 min—a co lservative ruler has fallen, a victim to treason ; but his mem ory will live and shiue as the stars forever and ever. And when a nation s gratitude shall erect a mo mrneut to the fallen heroes of this wu:\ high above all o'her names will be inscribed the name of Abraham Lincoln His mission is ended; his work is. finish ed ; but n t so with the nation|whose repre sentative he was. Its foundations are deep laid in the wi lof tin people, who have’tc solved that we shall be one government, one flaj, and tha'. fl tg t ie stars and str pes. I regret tia Mr. Lincoln c mid not have lived to have witnessed the result of his la bor; his toilsome days and sleepless nights; the entire and complete restoration of the Federal Union; a united people—free,pros perous, hippy. But we bow with resignation to that Prov idence tout raised him up, and has taken h ra away t* And while nur land is clothad in mourn ing we have great cause for rejoicing. The army ot the Uuion have been march ing on to glorious complete, triumphant victory. Joo J ihns’oi, horse, foot and dragoons, has surrendered to the immortal She man without a fight. And to-day our proud-ban ner fl iats triumphant o'er tne grave of rebel l*o i, and it omy remains to bury the dead skeleton of secession out of s’ght forever. Let it be buried deep and without benefit of clergy, but let a humane, generous, Chris tian Government he maguauimous towards the masses as a people who have been our brothers, who liave been misled by a few wicked and designing men. - 0 J The Government can afford to be as gen erous as it Is great. Its National honor has vindicated, its stricken Flag resurrected withtwTS i&Jr-oniV.? £ddud to its folds. And the lustre of the proihiiC.shining on its ample folds will be brightened by its mag . aanimity to a repentant people. , But to secure that magnanimity no indiffer ent negative love for the Government will do. It must be earnest .and sincere; and if there are those who hate the Government, I Would advise them to seek Borne other Country more cougeuial to their own feelings. The greatest liberty and freedom are for this people if they do not refuse it Aud us the new and uutr.cd Chief Magis trate of the Nation now takes charge of its affairs, let him have our cordial and united support, trust,ng that he will be found equal to the task, aud that God will give h. m wis dom so to d.rcct the affairs of the Nation as may >p -ediiy resu .1 in a. lasting peace, the integrity, prosperity and perpetuity o* the Feuerai Un on. To the people of Savaunah I would say: You have hitherto been justly proud of your beautiful, enterpr sing, growing, prosperous “ Forest City.” It has ever bceu a bright star on the escutcheon of your uoble State. Do you desire its future prosperity? Doyoa wish to see it the graud mistress of the South? If so, go to work, with a will-and pluck out of your heart all roots of bitter ness that may have matured from the seels of secession, and return with hearty obe dience to the fostering care of your common parent, the .Federal Government. The Chairmau then Introduced Colonel , Stewart L. Woodford, Chief of Staff to ilaj.-Geu. Q. A. Gillmore. REMARKS OF COL. STEWART L. WOODFORD. Mr. Chairman and fellow citizens:— Tl% de scending shades of night warn me to to brie! in my remarks. Nor should I at this latt hour trespass upon your patience, did it not seem fitting that the Commanding General ot the Department should express through me his sympathy iu the sad occasion which has called us together. Oik Friday, the Ktt of April, it was the g<»od fortune of some who are now gathered he# to stand upon the ruins of Fort Samter and on the sp »t where treason aimed the first gaq against out flag to celebrate its re»teratk> to :t • fam iar and light u' plat e. All C- ar.e»- ton blossomed with the banner, glad b.-lb rang cut their jubilee; the cannon spoke .- nation’s J »v, and loud hosannas were rais and Ut that birthplace of rebellion, which fouae full ibho in fiunwerlng s >dfrs of jny {Lftwgh out the io/Sl North fitkl West. The rath-, brave soldier who in April, 1861, defended the nation’s flag and the nation’.- honor upon that now' historic place was ther< to raise again tbe same old flag, where it shall float under God s provideuce to latest time. With full hearts we hail in- its resto ration the coming of peace and re-establish ment of law and order. We knelt upon those Waljsj and thanked God for h s safe gtfttfiince in the past; we vowed to keep that o:d flag ibfever safe against tteason, aud to restore our loved laud to its uncien pow\r and peace. On that same day, in th nition's capita l , loul murder struck fiom th, ro 1 of liviug men our trusted aud houorei President. Tne union paused in its gla» ucclaimaif joy, and we who were so prout and buuyaht in out hopes of peace comm* at last thr.ugh victory, stood sad and silen beside his grave. Abraham JuQcoln, win had done aud dared all for the nation’s cause, fell stricken, by the pjeau aud cowardly banc of the assassin. We meet again to-day upon this Southern.soil to commemorate his worth aufl faintly Speak the love with which we cherisn his honoted name. Now victories have glorified our arms, The rebel hosts dis banding, seek their homes. Returning loyal ty gives hopeful promise of the future, aud tne p ace for which we have fought so paiiently, so bravely, aud at last successful ly, seems closely at hand. But our joy is turned into mourning, and a nation bends in sacred grief to which no words can give fit utterance, From yonder heaven our sainted Presi dent bends above us, and in this hour oi s lsmn joy, yet of heartbreaking sorrow, I hear him speak ,as in the almost inspired words of his inaugural, pleading with the misguided men ot the South to cease their mad endeavor, to return to their allegiance, aud to live in brotherly concord beneath the flag of our fathers. Beside his grave, the olive branch, which he so often .tendered, will forever grow. He was just to North and Soutu alike, aud loyal men will forever love and revere him as one who, in tteason» darkest peril, wus brave Without rashnees, just without reveoge, and true in heart and word and deed to the nation and to liberty. Just wrath is kindled at his murder, and fittingly might we take deep vengeance on ihe accursed treason which culminated in hi.- death. But from his ashes there breathe the words spoken of i*ld uptm Calvary, “ Father, iorgive them, for tney know’ not what they do!” /In the spirit of Abraham Lincoln's Proclamation of Amnesty, we call the erring Traitor back to his allegiance. We offer f *rgiVeness to the misguided men who will noiv return to repentant loyalty. In oiir sol emn sorrow, we leave the past to Him who hath said, “Vengeance is mine aud I will repay.’’ Bui while thus forgiving, let all men re member that the time has come when'they must choose between allegiance and treason The tearful battles of the past four years are not to be fought again; the Flag must be hereafter honored and the Law obeyed. Peace and the Union we will have. He£j»e. forward this broad land is to bne nation, undivided and iadivisioie. We osier forgiveness for the past; in the name of the nation we demand loyalty for the future. If you are wise aud heed this admonition: prosperity shall bless your sun ny South. But if defiant Treason shall still assail the old Flag, 4 t swear by the bier oi our dead Presided 'Kfa\i we will compel obe dience to the law and loyalty to the Nation, though it be beside desolated hearthstones and traitor's graves. / Soldiers of the Republic—Well may your mourn to day! Iu Abraham Lincoln’s death you have 10->t a comrade-iu-c )ief, whose great heart always overflowed with sympa thy for your sufferings; whose eloquent voice always spok: words of cheer ami l <>ur privations, and of praise for your victories.— so you, and to your gallant leaders, he as cribed all the credit of our success. You loved him, as .he loved you. And ou the weary mareh, in the bivouac, and amid the tight, you were cheered by his example and sustained by his unwavering support. His was the far-sighted brain which guided your effort; his the loyal heart which sustained your patriati-m; and his the arm that upheld the old Flag for which you fought so bravely and beneatn whose folds so many of your comrades died. Soldiers and brothers—we trust that peace has cope; but if there shall be further stiife, let us in this sad hour resolve that our swords and lives are for our country, and that so long as treason strikes at the nation s life, we will do brave battle for pur land. Freedmen of Georgia—You, too, have cause to mourn this day. When Abraham Lincoln fell beneath the assassin's hand, you lost your truest, best,, and most patient friend. Four years ago you were, ia the judgment of the local law, mere things, the chatties and creatures, of another’s will,— Rebellion gave our President fit opportunity to do you justice. He struck tiie shackles from your limbs, and to day you stand be ■*ide his grave as free by human law as you ightfully are by God’s decree. Be virtuous that you may be respected. Be industrious ’-iiat you mty rightfully earn your living ctaongTUen. Be patient, be loyui, be brave. 1 - respectful to all,—bow and cr'nge to iko man, remembering that none is your master s»v« God, “who hath made of W 9 hlopj all OaUotJi to towell upon the fa**e of the earth,,’ While find white tvomen bf Savan nah, I you this day to aright the teachings of the hour. Remember that -lavery is dead ; it shall peter be recalled to hideous life again. Byyour own act you have set the bendman free. No power can now reassemble the scattered armies of re bellion. It is wisdom, as it is duty, to sub mit yourselves to the law aud to he hereafter loyal to the government under which you were born, aud beneath whose flag you will lie. The nation which fosteri and your child mod and made you ail that you are, still ;alls you back to its arms of love. We offer orgiveness for the mad error of the pa9t In tire name of the nation’s high sovereignty, ve demand and shall hereafter enforce obe lu nee to that common law which is alike the na«ter of us all. From the grave of the President we rever •ntly turn to hail the coming day of peace. May we be just and patient, loyal and brave, is was he! and may that God who bore the Mayflower across the ocean and planted it reside Plymouth Rock, who guided our fa rhers in the dark days of onr revolutionary -truggle, who preside over the early councils of our nation and made us so glorious among the people of the earth, who has iu these later days given us victory over treason, and who iu his inscrulible wisdom has now re moved our honored President, still watch over and guide our nation’s destiny. MONUMENT TO THE PRESIDENT. Gen. Littlefield then gave a brief account of a meeting at Hilton Head of Army aud Navy officers to erect a monumeut to Pres - cient Lincoln, a full account of which we shall publish to-morrow. original hymn. During the meeting the following original Hymn was sung by the assemblage to tbe air of “Old. Hundred”: . Almighty God! wa bow the head, And bring to Thee oar rater dead; Oh! help us to accept Thy will, And let thy power shield us stilL We turn to Thee onr weeping eyes, And leave our costly sacrifice ; * * Thine, and our Coontry’s,— none we save— The good, the great, the wise, the brave I O God of mercy! fill our hearts, With al*. Thy gracious love imparts; Till war shall cease from shore tp shore, Peace be enthroned forevermore t Bo Thou, O God, exulted high t And as Thy glory fills the sky, so let it be on earth displayed, Till Thou ar here as there obeyed. " ' THE CROWD. '• The entire enclosure in Johnson Square as seen from the stand was one mass of upturn ed faces. Nor was thejerowd confined to the enclosure; the Streep on all sides were also thronged, aud the door-steps, windows, balconies, and even the 1 roofs of the adjacer t houses were filled with eager listeners. The .crowd was composed largely of soldiers who were marched to the meeting in detaclimcn's without ”..as. mere was also present a great number of negroes, the main mass of whom was located at the right of the stand.- A fair proportion of citizens mingled with the crowd, and a few ladies were furnished with seats immediately in front of the stand. The 9th Conn. Vet. Vols. was present with their excellent band, ani.al-o the 14th Regiment Maine Vols The bind of the 14th Maine was stationed near the speaker’s stand, and furnished the music for the occasion.

BY 8. W. MASON AND CO. * - —— ~ SAVANNAH, SI'NDAY, APRIL 23, 1565. Loss OF THE Steamer Enoch Dean. —On I Wednesday last the Steamer Enoch Dean, i Capt. Hal let, left the dock foot of Whitaker street bound for the Islands lying south of Savannah, on the coast, with freedmen, their families and their effects; also a large amount of seeds and farming utensils for their use. Passing through one of the creeks empty ing into St. Catharine's Souad, the steamer struck a sung, and immediately filled and sank. All ou board were saved, but much of their property it it is feared would be lost. At the present time the loss of the •‘Enoch Dean’, which is attached to the Department of Major Gen. Saxton, is very serious and will greatly retard his operations of estab lishing on the coast in comfortable homes tlie # thousands under his care. The Enoeh Dean was about fourteen years old; and for merly plyed between Peck Slip, New \oork, and Flushing, Loug Island, and was the property of the Government. •A Prayer for the President of the United States, and all in Civil Authority. 0 Lord, our heavenly Father, the high and mighty Ruler of the universe, who dost from thy tnrone behold all the dwellers upon eftitl); Most heartily do we beseech thee with thy favor to behold and bless thy servant the President of the United States, and all others m authority; and so replenish them with the grace of tuy Holy Spirit, that they may always incline to thy will, and walk in tiiy way. Endue them plenteously with heaveniy gifts: grant them in health and prosperity long to live; aud finally, after tms life, to attain everlastingjoy and lelicity through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. ’ The Surrender or Lee’s Army.— I The New York Herald’s correspondence of the 17th contains some interesting details of the cere monies attending the surrender of General Lee s Army. The work of paroling the rebels commenced ou the llth inst., aud it was thought that three or four days altogether would be re quired to complete it. Tne number of men under General Lee's immediate count and covered by the surrender was estimated at only about sixteen thousand, including offi cers, privates and teamsters. The surrender ed artillery is supposed to comprise one hun dred and seventy pieces. Seven hundred wagons also formed part of the Union prire. So nearly exhausted were the provisions of ttie rebels that while the surrender was in progress a large number of them had to be supplied with food by General Grant’s com missaries. t' ■ The majority seemed more to welcome than legiet the surrender. Rebel officers transacted a brisk business in disposing of their horses to the national army, and showed their appreciation of the finances of Jeff. Davis’ confederacy by a universal retusal to take rebel money iu payment. The Second and Sixth corps of the Army of the Potomac foft Appomutox Court House on the llth lust., moviug back towards Burkesville Junc uon, leaving the Fifth corps behind to take charge of atfairsrtiipthe surrender Wus termi nated. Tue' ultimate destination of this por tion of General Grant’s forces has not yet been made public. . General Lee, in his farewell order to the rebel Army of Not them Virginia, after his su: render, tells them that he has yielded from no distrust of them, but because he was satisfied the circumstances were such that he could accomplish nothiug further which would compensate for the loss of life which would have attended a prolongation of the coutest. • Tne following is General Lee’s farewell to his army: Headq’rs Army Northern Virginia,) April 10, 1865. ) General Orders,) No. 9. ; After four years of arduous services, mark ed by unsurpassed courage and fortitude, the Army of Northern Virgiuia has been com pelled to yield to overwuelming numbers and resources. . • I need not tell the brave survivors of so many hard lought battles, who have rein iued steadfast to the last. Unit I have consented to this result born no distrust in them ; but feel ing that valor und devotion could aeCouiplish uothing that would compensate lor the loss that Would have attendee the continuance of the coutest, I determined to avoid the useless sacrifice of those whose past services have endeared them to their countrymen. . By the tcimsof the agreement, officers and men can return to their homes aud remain until exchanged. You will take with you the satisfaction that proceeds from the conscious ness of duty faithfully performed, and I ear nestly pray that ar merciful God will extend to you nis L.les-ing aud protection. With an un easing admiration of your constancy aud devotion to your country, and a grateful remembrance of your kind and generous consideration for myself, I bid -you an affectionate farewell. K. E.
