The Savannah Daily Herald. SUNDAY. APRIL Mt !•••« FBon OtR EVENING EDITION OF YESTERDAY. SSWS FRO.'iI NEW T!)RK TO THE 17TH INST. 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. Sbermau ; but it lacked confirmation. The official announcement of the tact by General fcUllmore was published in our Extra yester day atternoon. . 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. • Three days’ later news from Europe has been received. Tuc London Times fqjcshadows the ap proaching di-aolution of the Confederacy, in, .▼lew of the inevitable triumphs of Grant and Sherman. 'Napoleon declares that it is now too late far intervention iu America. Richard Cobdeu, M. P., the celebrated English reformer, died on the 2nd of April. * A diplomatic demand for satlstaction in the case of the Niagara aud Sacramento had been, made on Portugal, Df.vth of Mil J Melvin Abrahams.— Ou yester.lny at an eariy flour our citi zens ieara -d with regret of tlie demise of this' estim .ble young liian. a well-known citizen of Sa? an nafl. His death occurred at his its iile'nce, southwest corner of Joues aud Bar nard stre t». y- sfcxday morning about two o’do k.

At a lata hour oa Friday night Mrs. Abrams was awaken and byJu r nusband, and approaching ■ his bt dside found him insensible. Medical assistance was - immediately procured, but it availed nothing, aud Mr. Abrahams died at the hour above mentioned. Mr. Abi attains was born In the city of Charleston outlie 22nd day of April, 1887. Bis father, Mr. A. H. Abrahams, and his mother are residing iu Sumter, South Caro lina. About fourteen years since, Mr. Abri> hams came to Savannah, and entered the drug establishment of his uncle, Mr, A. A. Solomons, southeast corner of Barnard and Congress streets, and by his geutlemantly deportment, urbane manner, and obliging disposition, wou many friends who regret his early death. Be leaves a wife and one child. Mr. Abrahams about eighteen months since, purchased of the heirs of John B Moore, the well known Drug store in Gib bon's Range, aud by his untiring exertions his establishment was beginning to be fa vorably known. In all the relations of a kind and obedient sou, a loving husband, loud father, an up right merchant, and a good citizen, Mr. J. Melvin Abrahams sustained an enviable good name. Bis funeral will take place to morrow. Jddge Walton.— Judge Walton, of the Second Provost Court, arrived yesterday af ternoon in the steamer Sylph. Judge Wal tou is in very feeble health and it is impossi ble at present to say when he can resume the business'of the Court. - ■ Drcm Fish. —A large supply of this cel ebrated S'Uith Carolina fish was recived yes terday by the steamer Sylph, from Hilton Bead. They will be offered for sale in pieces to suit the public at the stalls of Jas- N. Cook In tke market. 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. , .Rcjat. —The following is the list of passengers by the “Ernilie ’’ flag of-truce from Sisters ,Feity, .Gja.* and Pujs burg, S.
