Ea<t'*r Suadiy *ms a s id and solemn Sab
bath for tbe nation. Sorrow brooded over
the ppirits of ti.c peop e throughout the coun
try. In New York city the main thorough
fares were draped f<>r miles aud miles lu the
sable emblems of mourning. The festoons
of bl; ck iud white, to bo observed upon al
most i v ry house-front, spoke forcibly of the
affection of the people for their dead Presi
dent.
In tko midst ot tbe mounting over the as
sassination of President Lincoln the an
nouncemeui of another grand triumph of the
National arms was received. Gen. Canby’s
forces captured Spanish Fort with the garri
son of three thousand, aud entered the city
of Mobile on the 9th inst. The rebel troops
fell back up the river in gunboats.
There was a rumor at Fortress Monroe that
Geu. Joe Johnston had surrendered to Gen.

Gen ral Ord, who lias special supervision
of affairs In Richmond, has issued an order
inviting the people in the surrounding coun
try to tiring in supplies for the market, and
calling upon the various industrial classes to
resume their occupations. Another order
informs all soldiers of the Army of Northern
Virgiiiia who were not present with the army
when it was surrendered, that they can avail
themselves of all the benefit* of that act by
c lining within the National Uoe3 and laying
down their arm 9.
Col. Farrell, in command of rebel troops
formerly under command of Imboden, has
gent in a flag of truce to General Hancock,
it is supposed, to make arrangements for sur
rendering his force as a part of Lee’s Army
of N irtuern Virginia. Geu. Rosser’s troops
dts.rted him en masse upon his refusal to
comply with the terras of .Lee’s surrender.
The uews of President Lincoln's assasdna
tion had caused the greatest exasperation
am *ng the soldiers of the Army of the Po
tomac aga nst the secessionists of the neigh
boring country.

Extensive Conflagration in New
York.
ABOUT *1,500,000 IN PROPER
TY DESTROYED,
Between two and three o'clock last Sun
day morning (16th inst.,) a fire »«roke out iu
the extensive live story cooperage establish
im
catecfro au-Adjninihg lumber yard and to the
bonded Nos; f»49, 551 aud 553 1
on the-opposite-aide ofthfsAfreet, consuming
nearly ati tin alein- ; the st*»vral buil
dings and the ml it '■* ■Jc yard. The value
of the buildin, -r, ; stocks of goods destroy
ed it is thong n ».s ,f least a million aud a
half ofdolla' It i- understood there were
insurances o. . iter part of this amount.
The coope _ e earn 1 isament was the pro
perty of-A. Orvgi-; the building was
owned by Thomas Owens, and the lumber
yard by J. Daryee.
Mr. Driggs estimates his loss at about $lO,-
000 ; insured for $2,000 on machinery iu the
Mechanics’ aud Traders'lusurance Company,
and $4,000 on stock in the Trader’s Insur
ance Company. The. buildiag was owned by
Thomas valued at $12,000 ; insured
for $6,000 in the Mechanics' and Traders’
Insurance Company.
Mr. Duryee estimates his los9 on number
at about $15,000; insured for $35,000, as fol
lows : Tradesmen's, $5,000; Jersey .City,
$5,000; Broadway, $2,500; New World,
$2,500 ; Hutgers, $5,000; Atlantic, $2,500 ;
Lenox, $2,500; Hope, $2,500 ; North Ameri
ca, $2,500; Lorillard, $5,000.
They uwe done the State some Service.
Though life on a'Blockading Squadron is
supposed to be toll of excitement, it is by no
means-the case ou a/f the blockading vessels.:
Certain ones who have to ‘ cruise about and
enjoy the excitement of.chasing and captur-'
ing valuable prizea,have not only an exciting
but a lucrative life. Other vessels, which
nay ehauce to be stationed to watch parti
cular ports, though they may do the State
quite as much solid service as their friends
who chance to be more dashingly employed,
still lead a much quieter life, and their duty
is comparatively destitute of excitement.
Among vessels which have been for the
past few months busily employed on Block
ade Service close to us here at home, we no
tice the two schooners Norfolk Packet, Capt
George \V. Woods, and the Para, Capt.
Geoige Ashbury. These fessels have been
on duty at or. about Ossabaw Sound, on
Blockading duty, -which they have thus far
performed thoroughly and admirably. Captain
Woods and Aslibuty have also had special
charge of 'supervising the “Sea Islands”
upon which the Fieedme.n. are now being
employed in laying out small farms foi them
selves, for tbe special purpose of raising cot
ton.
Though many of these Freedmen are well
acquainted with tbe method of cotton-raising
they still require a certaiu amount of exper
ience. Aside from teaching, they require to
be guarded trym. sharpers and cotton swind
lers. There are certain fellows who make* it
.their business to cheat the Government on
one hand, and the Freedmen on the other.—
These two Captains atfd their assistants have
arrested about twenty off these fellows, and
brought them to justice. At one time they
-eut six of them in irons to Gen. Grover to
be dealt-with.
The two schooners Para and Norfolk
Packet have had to watch the following
named Islands and look out for the interests
of the Freedmen cultivating them—Green
Islaud, R wedew Idaud, While Bluff Island,
Raccoon Island, Ossabaw Island ad* Bum
side Island. .’
That the duty has been well performed the
the excellent condition of the Freedmen
proves. '.
We have mentioned these facts to show
that quiet: blockading vessels are by no
means without their duties, by the perform
ance of which they really and truly do the
State some serviee.

the list of passengers by the “Ernilie ’’ flag

The Bridge at Havre De Grace. —From
present expectations tbe bridge in coursfe of
construction across the Busquehannah at
Havre de Grace, Maryland, will be finished
during this year, aud it will be known as the
great bridge of this continent, while it will
stand as ihe monument of the genius ancl
t nterprise of the nineteenth century. The
Victoria Bridge across the St. Lawrence, at
Montreal, has hitherto been considered the
most stupendous structure in America, hut
