All thalfis mortal of Abraham Lincoln the nation has buried from its sight,! an our people are ready now tioicoyer. their woe deep down in f their hearts' and resume their ordinary life. .

But at this late moment Davis determined to leave behind an official whose authoritv and in!ali;mty would insure the burning of th tobacco i the city, anjd the Secrcta rv of War was detailed! to" Commit the congenial Cnme Ol arson twgyuii (nuuai ui o ukii iui lie had tafen naturally to pearly every; other oftnse crime of arson -congeniql it must have been for he known to the criminal coae. - t JBreckinridge left the car just as the train started rarrfedaway the fugitivduovernment, and proceed ed to bis residence againi As soon as it was known that be Was in the city, numbers of iiifluentinl citi zens called on him to remonstrate against firing warehouses' in tne n cart or tne city, ana wnose yr-njtion-'Vias almost Certain to insure the destruction of the citv itself. : i BrecUinridge was deaf to all en treaty : the tobacco must be bnrr.ed, he said, no matter what tbe 1 cunseiruences to the city. The citizensithen asked permission to. roll the tobacco into therirer, but were peremptorily refused. ,The exact whereabouits of Breckinridge during the wlinio night cannot .ow be ascertained, but at the early -mominj hour when the warehouses were fired, he was in his saddle, galloping from place to complisied. . He was without atfehdanU, save a small escort ot cavaiiyj Who were apparently on hand to!protect hinv from the popniace. r1 j ! As soon as the wTrolellpwer part of the city was effectually fired, and it was absolutely certain that Richmond would bo, ruined, if hot utterly ,dcstrby e"d, Breckinridge reined bp on thesiiinmitat the in tersecfci4n of Main and .Twelfth streets, to enjoy the ruin-he' bad wrought !' Ewell's whole army had passed through on its retreat, the rar'guard just then crossing the James, immediately above the city', and the traitor Breckinridge sal there, the sole remnant of the Confederacy left-in Richmond.

' ) The Richmond Whig of Tuesday says : i By advices from Newbern, N. 0-i via Washing ton, we heard that Davis was with Johnston's army at H dishorn', on the North Carolina Railroad, west of Raleiuh. on or abotit.tbe 13th. We credited this report at the time, and; have now the means of knowing- that it was correct, having just received, through a: trustworthy soilrce, authentic intelli gence from that portion of North Carolina which throws light upon Davis' movements and expfains why he was nt intercepted by Stoneman, wlie, on the12th, took Salisbury, . which is one hundred inilrs southwest of Hillsbpro' by the hue of the Norrh Car Hn i Railroad. ; - Davis was at liillsboro' from the,12th tothe-14th instant He then . went "by rail to ' Greensboro', whence.with an escort of two thousand picked cav ajry, sebcted from Hampton's and: Wheehr's com mands, bb -started on horseback for the far South; taking the country road due south to Ashboro and Cheraw. By. this route he left Salisbury and Stone- " man forty miles to his right. From Cheraw he probably struok southwest to Columbia, SouthXJar olina, from wbich place the country was open before .him until he reaQhcd the lines of Generals Canby ' and Wilson. His one object now is to escape tb the "trans-Mississippi,;and he carfinot regard himself out of extreme danger until he has run. the gauntlet of the United States armies now operating in Alabama. These two thousand horsemen form to day a gloomy cavalcade; as they toil along the .Southern bandy roads under aSoutl.ern sunt Perhaps they .re cheered by the feeling that they bear Caesar and his fortunes ; they certain lj? cover all that is lrft of the so-called Confederate Government, and "themselves compose the only organized force that DavK lias on this side of the Missjississippi river. Davis;- Breckinridge, Trenholm, rjfeFjamin, St. John and Reagan, all ride in centre of.tbat forlorn band; and how many understrappers. keep their company it is bootless to know. They bea with them no affection 6f the people of Richmond, though they .'have left us a lasting memento in'ljhe. charred and blackened ruins of the fairest portidn'of our beauti ful city. , '' ii S From the Whig, l i nOKUIBLE EXPLOSION 'AND LOSS OF HlFE IV DANVILLE A' KA1D OS TnK COM M ISS A RY fl) E P A ltTAl E JJT.. I From a gentlvman of intelligence who reached, this city on foot from Danvillej we. have some in ti resting particulars of events that occurred there after the surrend&rbf Gen. Lee's army. . When this event became known in the town and surrounding countr, a crow of citizens of aU classcs, ages and colors, land a large number of soldiers, collected around the buildings in which were stored immense .quantities 'of commissary stores, god titter a short deliberation, made-a general rush upon the estab lishments. The p irties in charge of the stores at 6rst attempted to resist the mob; but were quickly forced to desist and. seek their own safety in flight. The individuals of the nub scattered throughout every part of the building, each one plundering ac cording -to his or her fancy. In one of the build ings, it appears, there was a large quantity of am munition, gunpowder, in kegs and percussion caps. The soldiers sind country people swarmed around .the pewder eager to secure ir, for fowling purposes.- While they were thus engaged,' by some means fire was communicated to the powder, and in an instant the building and .its contents, including over fifty persons, were blown to atoms. This horrible trage dy for a tiincput a check upon plundering, which, bQwevcr,'was soon recommenced, but with some what more circumspection. ,'! - Ex Governor Extra Billv Smith was in Danville wpen our iniormantjieit. ue had been vapurjng,a good deal about bis determination never to surreri- . der, saying-, that sooner tb an succumb he would turn bushwhacker, guerilla, or something of that sort Notwithsitanding this, our informant learned, just before leaving, that Extn Billy had sent' a flg of truce to General Meade, the object of which bad npt transpired. We may mention,; in this cpnnec- . tion, the report which has obtained circu'ation here that the citizens of Lynchburg either requested or compelled the ex uovwnor to jieave their town. THE LATKST.

Qn.Sanday CoV onel Baker obtained -information which convinced lain that Booth arid Harold had really been con : cealed in the meantime in a. swamp in St Mary's county, and had on .that day crossed 'the Potomac "from Swan a Point, a short distance above Leonard town, to Bluff Point, on the Vireinia'shorevoprA)- site. They crossed in.a skifi which they rowed the mselves, and lor which tbey. paid three hundred dollars. i About oner o'clock -on Monday last Colonel Baker asked for a detail of twenty-five cavalry, which were sent, to him; uner command of Lieutenant Docb- eity. He then detailed Lieutenant-Ooldnel E. :J, Conger and lieutenant L. B. Baker, formerly; of trie cavalry under his (Uolonei Uaker SLcommand, ard at present attached to his office, and instructed them: to proceed with the escort to Belle Plain, and make as. rapidly as possible for uowling Green, be Sieving that Uooth and liarold would attempt to 1 each Orange Court House and get around our forces tn Virginia. I .Colonel Conger and his party left Belle Plain on Monday.4fi.ght. it ten o'clock. They proceeded a'sout three miles towards .Fredericksburg, andMhen turned southeast towards the Rappahannock river Tiiey leached Port Conway, on tbe Rappahannock about one o'clock P. M. on Tuesday. At this point ' it was ascertained, from a man-named Rollins, that on Monday two men, answering exactly to the-description ot Booth and Harold,'-had offered him ten dollars to take th'eaiLO Bewling Green, whieb be agreed to ; but afterwards the one answering to the description oi Harold came to bim and said they did i not nerd his services. a&theyhad found friends who would do all tbey desired It was ascertained that they had crossed the river at about one o'clock Pi. M. on Monday, with the assistance of three rebel soldiers, and had started immediately for B'wKng Green. Colonel Conger and his party weredefained in crossing tho river, as only two horses at a, time could be carried across jn the limited ferry arrange- . ments to be bad. They.left Port Royal,; however, at about five u'clock P. M. on Tuesday. When . halfway to BowlingGreen they were iu formed by; itme women that the. party of five who had passed,, down the road on Monday had returned ' that day, except one, Mid that-14 no- lame !T man had come back. " " ' ' . ,.' f- ; Having beard that Booth' was lamer and suo po ring that be bad bcen left, at Bowling Green, the party of pursuers went on to that place, and sur rounded the hotel about eleven o'clock P..
