the 24th inst, arrived yesterday morning.—
We are indebted to Purser C. A. Barstow of
the Weybosset, and Capt. Cobb of the Cathe

from which we take the following highly im
portant and interesting news.]
Til* Grand Review
The New York papers of the 24th contain
extended descriptions of the great review of
the armies at Washington. Tuesday the
23d was the first of the two days grand re
view of the veteran national armies in Wash
ington, and everything connected with the
magnificent pageant passed off in the most
brilliant manner. The weather was of a
character the most favorable for the occasion,
aud the appearance of the war worn vete
rans, as in solid columns they marched
through the main thoroughfare of the capital,
was such as to elicit the continued plaudits
of the thousands of spectators. A similar
scene has never been witnessed, in this coun
try, and probably, after the review of to-day
is over,* nothing like it will Mgaiu appear to
dazzle the eyes and stir the blood in the veins
of the citizens of the great republic. The
troops reviewed yesterday were those com
posing the Army of the rotomac and Sheri
dan’s cavalry.
The column commenced to move at about
niue o’clock in the morning, General Meade
and staff riding at its head, followed imme
diately _by the cavalry. Then came the
Ninth, Fifth and Second corps, the entire
force marching through Penn -ylvania aven
ue Irom the Capitol and past - the White
House, where it was reviewed by the Pres
ident and the Cabinet, General Grant, Gen
eral Saerman and a large number of other
distinguished military men, members of
Congress, the diplomatic corps, and other
eminent persons. The whole ,liue of pro
cession was packed on each side by a dense
mass of people, whose cheers of welcome
home to the nation’s defenders were of the
most authentic kind. To-day will take
place the review of General Sherman’s sol
diere, consisting of the Army ’OF Tennessee
aud the Army of Georgia.
The Rebel Captives.
Jeff. Davis, Clement C. ‘Clay and some
other members of the party of. leading rebel
captives were on Monday last taken from the
steamer Clyde, in Hampton Roads, and trans
ferred to the strong casemates of Forties
Monroe tor safe keeping. On the day pre
vious the rebel Vice President and Postmas
ter General, Alex. H. Stephens and Reagan,
were despatched on board the Tu'scarora for
Fort Lafayette, In New Y'ork harbor, and
General Wheeler, three of his staff officers
aud Colonels Johnson and Lubbock were
started for Fort Delaware. The wife and
family of Jeff. Davis were nbtjplaced in Fort
ress Monroe ; but it is understood that thev
will be sent back to the South, and not be
permitted to come to the North.
A Parly or Mexicau Emigrants Arrested.
The Custom House authorities ol San
Francisco had detained the bark Brontes,
about to sail for Arizona, with four hundred
Mexican emigrants— most of whom were sup
posed to be Americans going to Mexico to

cases of firearms onboard, and telegraphed
to W asbingtoh for instructions. Three com
papies of a regiment of California volunteers
had sailed for Arizona.
Bt. Mark* and Tallahassee Surrendered.
The government steamer Rhode Island
arrived at New York on the 2prd from
Pensacola and Mobile on the 16th, with the
news that St. Marks and Tallahassee, Flori
da were surrendered to the national forces
on the 9th inst.

Tire Trial of tbe Assassin*.
The testimony elicited at the great trial on
the 20th inst., was of considerable moment,
and some startling disclosures were made in
connection with the case: •
The first witness examined was Assistant
Secretary ol \\ ar Dana, who identified the
rebel Cipher arrangement, which he took
frrm the room in Richmond, formerly occu
pied by Secretary Benjamin, on tbe 6th ol
April. The contrivance is a reel, to be
turned so as to substitute one set ol letters of
the alphabet for others.’’”'." • v r
Major Eckert was sworn, and a cipher was
exhibited to him found in the trunk ofj.
Wilkes Booth. He compared it with the
Benjamin cipher, said it was tire same.
Some of the rebel ciphers of other parties bad
tallen into bis hands, and- they were on the
tbe key word may
be ditterent. The witness furnished transla
tions °f the cipher, dated October 18. It is
to this effect“We again urge our gaining

wst. Uoicombe will explain this. Our
friend shall be immediately set to work as
you direct.” This cipher was in reply to one
ot the 9th. The correspondence was carried
on between Richmond and Canada.
General A. J. Hamilton, ol Texas, testi
fied that lie is acquainted with the handwri
ting of Wm. G. Oldham, of Texas. He
identified a letter from Oldham to J ff. D.-
vis, in relation to a plan for burning the
shipping,- See. Oldham was elected to
the Senate of the so-called Confederate
Btates in lf&l.
John A. Ward, who lives in Bryantown,
testifies that on the day after the assassina
tion he went Into the village, but could
not say positively that he saw Dr. Mudd
there.
Robert Nelson (colored) testified that he
found a knife hear Secretary Seward’s
house, in the middle of the street, early on
fee morning of Saturday, as he was going to
market.
Dr. .Wilson testified that he examined the
knife referred to by the preceding witness,
and recognized it as the one having been
handed to him by the boy Nelson.
James B. Stuart testified that he was at
the theatre on the night of the assassination,
and saw the assassin leap from the box, and
made an effort to stop him from running
across the stage. He passed several persons
in the passage way and one near the door.—
The latter did not move about as the others
did. Witness here scanned the prisoner in
the box, and said the fifth one from the win
dow (Spangler) looked most like the man to
whom lie relerred.
Mr. Campbell, who resides at Montreal,
testified that he is the first teller of the On
tario Bank, and identified the bank account
of Jacob Thompson ; Thompson’s account
was opened in May, 1864,'the whole amount
of credits being six hundred and forty-nine
thousand dollars; witness stated sums drawn
by Thompson at various times; he knew
Thompson was reported to be the financial
agent of the rebel government; but he was
knowu only as Jacob Thompson at the bank;
he knew Thompson had largo transactions
with other banks in the province, and refer
red to a check drawn by Thompson to the
order of C. C. Clay for fifty thousand dollars
on the Bank of Ontario ; witness remember
ed J. Wilkes Booth, who had a small account
at the bank for a bill of exchauge for sixty
one pouuds on Liverpool, which was drawn
to his order. He stated that he was going to
run the blockade, aud asked whether, in case
of capture, the Unionists could make use ot
the exchange.
Surgeon General Barnes testified to the ex
amination and identification of the body of
Booth.
The closing part of the court’s proceedings
are not allowed to be made public at prescat,
it being understood that anjall important wit
ness, wuose testimony the government has
reasons for withholding, was under examina
tiou.
On the 23rd the court-martial met as usual;
but after some remarks from members of the
court and the counsel, without taking any
testimony, an adjournment, till Thursday
took plaee, owing tq the prosecution having
some witnesses to examine whose attendance
at the time it was impossible to secure.
The Trans-Mississippi Rebels.
The steamship Evening Star, which arriv
ed at New York, on the 20th from New Or
leans, brought despatches from that city to
the 13th instant. Colonel Sprague, of Gen
eral Pope's staff, left ‘he mouth of Red river
on the 4th instant, and proceeded up that
stream, in company with office rj ot Kirby
Smith's staff, for the .purpose of .holding a
-coufeti ace with that rebel chief, and subrait
ing to him, as the basis(for the surrender of
h’» Train-Mississippi army, the terms grant
ed to Lee and Johnston.
The result of the negotiations was not
known; but Colonel Sprague’s return to
New Orleans was dally looked for. Large
Suantities of cotton were arriving in Mis
ssippi river from up the Yazoo. The army
worm has aguin made its appearance on
some of the Louisiana cotton plantations Gen.
Canby aud staff and General Osterhaus ar
rived in New Orleans from Mobile on the
12th inst. Commodore Palmer, who took
part in the naval operations against Mobile,
came a passenger to this city on board the
Evening Star.
Preparations are making for a short, sharp
and decisive campaign against tl e rump of
the a-ebellion beyond the Mississippi. Gen
eral Sheriden is to command all the Union
forces to be concentrated in that Tegion, and
will make short work of Kirby Smith, Ma
gruder and the remnant of the rebels under
their control if they should decline to ac
cept General Pope’s terms of surrender.
Tb# Array *f tbe Potomac
The War Department has issued orders
for the immediate mustering out of service of
all white troops of the Army of the Potomac
whose terms of service expire previous to
the 80th of September next. Though the
» der is for their immediate discharge, some
ten days or tyro weeks will be required to go
through the necessary attendant routine.
Final Disposition of Jefferson Davis.
The New York Herald correspondent at
Fortress Monroe gives the following account
of the arrival of Jefferson Drvis and the cap
tive party, and their lodgment in prison :
The Clyde, having on board the prisoners,
and also the Tuscarom (convoy)
were anchored outside the harbor, and Col
onel Pritchard and Captain Frailey went on
shore in a small boat to report to Washing
ton. 4s has beep previously stated, they
learned from the commandant of the post,
Colonel Roberts, that he had orders to re
tain the prisoners at that place, and was then
engaged ia fitting up six casemates inside
Fortress Monroe for their reception In
answer to the reports seut to the capital by
Colonel. Pritchard, he received a telegram
ordering him to guard the prisoners well and
‘•await further orders.” Subsequently he
received a despatch shat General Raileck
would arrive at noon on Saturday to take
charge of the matter. Accordingly General
Halieck did arrive, but it was not until Sun
day morning that anything definite was
known regarding the disposition of the pri.
soners. About eight o’clock A. M. on Sun
day, the 21st inst., however, the gunboat
Maumee came alongside the Clyde, and took
on board General Wheeler and his throe staff
officers, and Colonels Johnson aud Lubbock.
They are destined to Fort Delaware.
About noon of the same day the msn-of-
Wnr Tuscurop took on board Vice-President
Stephens and Paymaster Geuaral Ryazan,
and started with them for Fort Lafayette: t
was given to understand, by an offic.-r Who
knew whereof he spoke, that the rest of
them wo|rid occupy the casemates in Fortress
Colonel Prifcbard and UI» men re
maining a* special guard. f w *
i May 22, 18 c/.
At one o'clock tiffs afternoon the steamer
Silas J. Pierre left Baltimore wharf, at this
Placa, wiih Brevet Major General Miles ac
companied by other officers of prominence
and proceeded immediately .to the steamer
Wm. P Clyde, at anchor in the stream with
Jeff. Davis aud the remainder of th? rebel
party on board.
An hour, perhaps sufficient to give the de
parting rebels time to take a long farewell
of triends and dear ones, was awarded them,
The harbor, which usually is crowded with
all kinds and classes of vessels, to-day look
ed almost deserted ; scarcely a dozen sail of
vessels could be counted, and even they
seemed dull and listless.
Colonel Roberts, commander of Fortress
Monroe, perceiving the absolute necessity ot
maintaining strict discipline, in conformity
with the wishes of the government that the
transferment of the rebel party to Fortress
Monroe should be conducted in as quiet a
manner as possible, very early in the morn
ing atationed guards in the immediate vicini
ty of the casemates wherein are cells intend
ed for the incarceration of the prisoners, and
also along the various paths anu routes they
would be obliged to traverse while en routt
to the fortress.
Iu a short time after the Pierce reached the
wharf the piisoners began to land. Such
were the arrangements, strictly enforced by
the military authorities, that no peison was
allowed to approach the wharf where the
prisoners landed, except at a distance of over
live hundred yards.
As the prisoners marched up the wharf,
preceded by a ghard of their captors of the
Fourth Michigan cavalry, the tall, spare form
ot Jeff. Davis dressed in gray clothes aud
wearing a light felt hat, could be easily dis
cerned. As soon as the prisoners were all
ashore they were marched up along the beach
to the sallyport of the water battery, in the
rear of the fortress, and thence to their cells
in the second tier of casemates.
Clement C. Clay accompanied Jeff. Davis
inside the fortress, and also, it is supposed,
the largest portion of his personal staff. Mrs.
Davis and her four children, her brother and
sis v er and the wife of Clement 0. Clay, re
main on board, the steamer Clyde, and, it is
thought, will be sent South this evening, as
orders have been received from the War De
partment prohibiting them from going
North. .
The parting between Jeff. Davis and his
family is described to have been of an ex
tremely affecting nature, during which the
feelings of the once ambitious aud desperate
rebel leader were completely overcome.
Major General Halleck has been here dur
ing the past three days, superintending ’the
arrangements made for the confinement of
the rebel prisoners.
Stringent orders in relation to visiting the
fortress have been issued, and all civilians
are prohibited from entering it uoless duly
provided with ap. ss from Major Genet ai
Halleck.
The Stock Market Gold, etc.
The stock market was firmer yesterday,
but no material advance of price took place.
Governments were dull. Gold was stronger,
and after opening at 181 3-8, rose one per
cent, and stood at 6 P. M. at 132 I*4. At
night the closing quotation was 132 3-8.
Tae rise iu gold had the effect of rendering
holders of merchandise rather firmer yester
day ; but, with a limited demand for both
foreign aud domestic goods, no improvement
was realized, save in a few instances. For
eign goods were very quiet as a general
thing, and prices were nomiualiy unchanged.
Cotton was rather easier. Groceries were
quiet. Petroleum was dull and unchanged
On Change flour was 10c. a 16c. better.—
Wheat was quiet. Corn' and oats Were de
cidedly better. Pork was lower. Lard was
firmer. Whiskey was 2c. a 3c. lower, and
2c. a Bc. below the Government tax.
European News.
An airival from Liverpool, the lith inst.,
brings the intelligence that the news by the
Belgian of the surrender of Johnston’s army
was published on the forenoon of the 10th.
Its effect had not been developed at the clos
ing of this summary.
In the House of Commons Mr. White had
given notice that on the 11th inst., he would
ask the First Lord of the Treasury (Palmer-
