Philadelphia Dates of April Add.
PASSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT’S REGAINS
THRO It il THE COUNTRY.
By the kindness of our courteous Post
master, Mr. A. L. Harris, we are in posses
sion of a copy of the Philadelphia Inquirer,
of April 22d. It was brought to Hilton Head
by the steamer Russia.
The Russia brought down a small mail for
Savannah, which has been promptly distri
buted.
The following are extracts from the In
quirer, which is principally filled with ac
counts of the obsequies of the President:
FABSAGK Os THE PRKSIDET'S REMAINS THROUGH
THE CORNTRT.
Ev Route April 21.—Appropriate religi
ous services having been performed at the
Capitol, the coffin was taken to the depot,
gid deposited in the funeral car. Hon.
dwin M. Stanton, Hon. Gideon Welles,
Hon. Hugh McCullough, Hon. John Usher,
General U. L. Grant and General C. Meigs
let! the escort at the depot, and at 8 a. m.,
prociscly, the train left tho depot. At least
ten thousand persons were out to see the de
parture, but the depot was guarded by the
Veteran Reserves, and no one allowed to en
ter but those leaving, and their friends
The Twenty-second Regiment United
States Colored Troops were drawn up in line,
outside the depot, and as we left they pre
sented arms-
THE TRAIN.
On leaving the city the train consisted of
nine caris, all elaborately draped in mourn
ing by Mr. White, of the Baltimore Railroad.
Anew engine, as a pilot, ran ahead of
our train about ten minutes. Another new
engine (dressed in mourning) drew the train.
One baggage car, six new cars of the Balti
more ana Ohio Railroad fbr the escort. The
fine car of the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Railroad for the principal mourn
ers, and the magnificent new car of the Unit
ed States Mail Railroad, for the corpse, built
by General McCullura, for the express use of
the President, and completed a few months
ago.
the escort oar 1861.
Os the escort that accompanied! Mr. Lin
coln from Springfield to Washington in his
great triumphal tour four years ago, but
four are now with the remains, Judge David
Davies, of Illinois, Major General David
Hunter, Ward H. Lamon, and the special
correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer.
ALONG THE ROUTE.
All along the railroad the pickets and
guards came to a present arms, but few T peo
ple, however, were visible, until we reached
Annapolis Junction,where the buildings were
draped iu black, and two engines standing
upon the track tolled their bells. About five
hundred soldiers and citizens stood along the
track, but not a word was spoken, no noise,
as the train glided along slowly past the sta
tion.
DEPARTURE THOU BALTIMORE.
Harri9buro, April 21.—The funeral train
bearing the remains of the late President left
Baltimore at 3 o’clock. From the tens of
thousands of people we had seen along the
streets, the supposition was that all the peo
ple were iu town. But for three miles out
both sides of the road were lined. The same
sad groups, the old flag in mourning, the
hovel of the beggar with its piece of crape
nailed to the front, and the mansion of the
wealthy protusely clothed in black, and our
silent passage denoted that if even there were
those who would not have wept at our loss,
they dare not let it be known, but sought to
cover up their sins and throw around them
the garb of loyalty. What a change since
1861!
Governor Curtin and Staff, aud General
Cadwalader and staff join us at the State line.
General Townsend and General McCollum
received them formally, and aft era moment’s
halt, in we go. The same tributes strew our
course. Just at dusk we reach York, enter
ing the town amid the tolling of bells. The
buildings are draped, and the citizens crowd
ing one another down to the very rail over
which our iron horse seems to plow his
way. We halt at the depot, and find thou
sands of people with uncovered heads in the
rain.
A brass band from the United States Hos
pital plays a mournful dirge. Mintzer’s
n fan try are so ranged along the track as to
keep the way dear. The bells all over the
city trill, and miuute gunß from the hiil side
add to the impressiveness of the occasion.
While we are taking in water the crowd
opeh a passage from the station, and a half
dozen ladies Tn black come through to the
cars.
General Townsend and McCullum meet
them, and in moment asoldier brings down a
laigewaiter, around which is a wreath of white
roses, camelias, and the most delicate and
flagrant exotics. In the centre of the wreath
is a flag, the blue field made of violets, and
the stars of white violets, and the red stripes
of geraniums, making one of the most beau
tiful natural pictures ever prepared for such
an occasion.
Thp fragrance of those violets seemed like
incense from Heaven. A neat tribute, plain,
but coming from the heart, will weigh against
the costly decorations of the millionaire;
a starry flag of violets laid upon the corpse
by the ladies of York. Old men tottering
to their graves, with rain pattering upon their
bald heads; wounded soldiers hobbling to
the roadside to staoVtheir love for him who
sleeps before them; old women sobbing as
though they had lost their first bora; fair
maidens brush away the tears, and men hold
up their little ones to see the car that con
tains the remains of the people’s frieud. “He
was crucified tor u«!” exclaimed an aged
colored man, but the shrill whistle sounds,
and we leave a scene that can never he for
gotten by those who witnessed it.
Such feelings, such sincere grief, has never
manifested itself before since the death of
Washington. There have been no speeches
made to-day, no sermons, not a word spoken,
the silence of the funeral cortege speaks with
an eloquence that must reach the hearts of
men of adamant.
Iu our train are over one hundred and fifty
men and no ladies. Need I tell you that
there lias hardly been one who did not be
tray his emotions with tears, As it grew
dark the crowd of the people at the stations
seemed to be larger as we drew near Hw
risburg, which we reached at 8:15 p. m., in ft
drenching rain. ,
ARRIVAL AX HARRISBURG.
Harrisburg, April a—ll P. M —Tho
Presidential funeral train arrived here on
time this evening. Prepirations have been
made to make the esccrt from the depot
through the one of the deepest so
lemnity. Governor Curtin, though very ill,
having been confined to Ms bed for several
days, proceeded to the §tate border iu the
one o’clock train, by tl» Northern Central
Railway, accompanied ly Hon Eli Slifer,
Secretary of the Commmwealth; the Dep
uty Secretary, Adjutant-General Russell, and
the whole Gubernatorialstaff, together with
the heads of deparhnens, and Major-Gen
eral George Cadwaladermd staff, and Major
General Heintzelman am staff'. It was un
derstood that the remaps of the martyred,
patriot President were t| be in the immedi
ate charge of General (Adwalader.
To the Signal Corps, ; under the immedi
ate management of Mr. W. T. S. Jamison,
of General Hinks’ office was assigned the
duty of signaling the approach and progress
of the train. There wai not a house in the
city that was not drapet with deep mourn
ing. The sky had bet* shrouded in dark
clouds during the day, lut every body hoped
it would not rain and thus mar the solem
nities of the occasion.
At an early hour in tte even! ng the streets
were crowded with men women and chil
dren. At least ten thoisand people had ar
rived here from abroal. The funeral es
cort was announced topassfrom the depot
up Market street to Seiond, up Second to
State, and through StaU to the Capital buil
dings. These streets wire literally jammed
with human beings, evey accessible and eli
gible point being occmied. Great anxiety
was felt for the safety and tlie remains of our
President and those accompanying it.
Happily, at schedulj time, it was an
nounced by the signals that the train had
reached Bridgeport, onthe opposite side of
the river, and soon the rain, with its mourn
ful emblems, came creeling slowly over the
bridge. At the Harrislurg terminus a large
concourse of people wre awaiting its arriv
al, and when it had pasecl a rush was made
for Market street.
ON THE ARRIVALAT THE DEPOT
A salute of twenty-oneninute guns was fired
from Capitol Hill. Tie Court House bell
raug for the citizens b assemble,, but they
needed no such anuouiacement. A battalipu
of artillery, a company of cavalry, the Six
teenth Regiment Vetenn Reserve Corps, of
ficers of the Army ant Navy, mounted and
dismounted, the memfors of the Legislature,
the Mayor and City Councils of Harrisburg,
the Soldiera of the Wh‘, 1812, the Judiciary
delegations, and *a atmerous concourse of
citizens were in line; waiting 'the order of
escort under the Chfet Marshalship of Col.
Harry McCormick. jMter some delay, the
hearse containing thaiemains of our h ouor
ed President was seeiapproaching, and now
ensued a scene of j ‘eat commotion. Rain
had commenced to ‘all, and now a perfect
stream was pouring own.
NotbiDg daunted tte immense concourse
of people stood theii ground. As the hearse
moved up the street ne people crowded to
wards it, as if the and arest casket of the na
tion were borne fron them, and well might
they. The second \ ashiugton of the nation
was dead, and the|;opie of the land, who
all loved him beyon- expression, hung close
to his departing fora. All were anxious to
get a glimpse of his coffin among the first.
The scene was gra id as an outpouring of
the national grief, aL l God made the scene
terrible and sublime, ‘or with the roar of can
non came the roar ofHeaven’s artillery, and
Heaven's lightning aiiwered quick aud lurid
every flash of earthlr artillery. I canuot
describe to you the tVi ible sadness of the
spectacle as the the square.
Here the rain was terific. Horses pranced
j in the lightning’s glare and men staggered
under the watery elem nts. The parting of
the military now filled around the hearse,
which stood in the st Jet for the space of
about ten minutes. Tpe watery elements
were pouring down upto the remains of him
we revere, and all the rapery ot black was
soaked in water.
Heaved wept even mire than the people.
Red lights shine upon the street at every
corner, lightning up thd insignia of mourn
ing “A Nation Mour® its Martyred Fath
er.” ‘*A Great Man has Fallen.” “We
Mourn a Slaughtered Lelder.”
The scene at the Cupiol when the escort
arrived beggars description. The remains
were to be seen there fnn nine to twelve
o’clock, and thousands iad gathered iu the
Capitol Park to embrace the opportunity of
seeing lor the last time ile mortal remains
of him they revere. A stnng guard had been
placed around the buildup to keep back the
throng, but when the bock had been placed
within the bullking tbelpress became so
great the gdards were puttied back, aud the
immense crowd rushed to lie door of the ro
tunda.
Here it was with the utriost difficult that
the order of entering cotid -be preserved;
but one by one the people law our President.
Passing through the roiutia, within a line
guarded by the military, I feaclied the door
of the House of Represenitivcs. Here all
was pervaded by the stilluds of death. Men
and women walked slowli past the coffin,
and as they contemplated Jr a moment the
features of him whom tliw loved so well,'
now pale in death, the cru* blow of the as
sassin that laid him low ]was before their
minds’ eye, and tears flowld lrom eyes not
accustomed to weep—tea* of griel most
deep and sincere. But as c were hurried out,
we could not dwell long bytiis side. Taking
one more look at the deefcd coffin, and at
the stand on which it lay,C(tered with black,
three feet in height, that hrl been erected in
front of the Speaker’s desk l we bade good
bye to our poor dead Csesarko the mute ora
tion of his wounds, and, ctscending steps
erected from the windows atthe eastern end
we were once more in theVpen air, in the
cold and chilling rain, and tlus the throng
passed mournfully through tie chamber till
the doors were closed. It is fct thought that
all who wish to see the deacnPresident can
do so. Many thousands cT people from
abroad will be here to-mornw to swell the
throng. JExtra trains are clirtered on all
the rqilroftds. I
Owing to a change in the prrtramme, mak
ing the hour of departure frorihere eleven
instead of 12 o’clock, but littldtime can be
atlordcd sot this purpose. To-|orrow from
seven to nine is the allotted tiid, alter which
the procession which will para* the streets
and escorts the remains to the dfcot, will pass
through the chamber.
A salute of minute guns wniflred at the
Relay House, and a general dis Jay of crane
marked our passage. I
