Washisoton, April 15 1 A. M. The streets in the vicinity of Foid'a Theatreare densely crowded by an anxious and excited crowd, guard has been placed across Tenth streetand F and E| streets, and only official persons and particular friends, of the Presid'mt are allowedto pass. The popular heart is deeply stirred, and the deepest! Indignation against leading rebels isfreely expressed. The scene at the house where the President lies in\ exi.-emisis very affecting. EcenSecretary Stanton Is affected to tears. WL en the news spread through the city that the Presideni hadbeen shot, the people, with pale faces and compressed lips, crowded every place where there wasthe slightest chance of obtainingj information In regard to the affair. After the President was shot,Lieutenant Rathburn, caught the assassin by the arm. who immediately struck him with a knife, andjumped from the box, afl| before stated. i The popular affection for Mr. Lincoln has been 8hown| bythis diabolical assassination, which will bring eter-| nal Infamy, not only upon Its authors, but uponthe hellish cause which they desire to avenge. Vice President Johnson an ived at the White House,where the President lies, about one o'clock, and will re- main with him to the last. The President'sfamily are In attendance upon him also. As soon as inteliigetce could be got to the War De- partment,the electric telegraph and the Signal corps were put in requisition to endeavor to prevent the es-cape of the assassins, and ail the troops around Wash- ington are under arms. Popular report pointsto a somewhat celebrated actor of known secession proclivities as the assassin; but It *\ould beunjust to name him until some further evi- dence of hs guilt Is obtained. It Is rumored that theperson alluded to is in custody. The latest advices from Secretary Seward reveals more desoe. atework there than at flrst supposed. Sew- aru's wounds are not in themselves fatal; but, in con- nectionwith his recent injuries, ani the great loss of blood he has sustained, his recovery Is questionable.It was Clarence A.

The Shockoe warehouse and other entrepots of supplieswe.e burni:ig. Tije bridges also had been fired. No mob or violence of any kind had o.'eurred up tothe period when he left, so that the reporis of a de- strULiive mob on Sunday night are untrue. Theen- emy's cavalry entered the city as the train moved off that he ctme out in. 1 he story of the mobtherefore, we hope is entirely erroneous. This officer describes the fighlini? on Saturday as terrifiicbeyond description. The en<.my forced wlumu after column on our works, tapping our lines on tbeextreme right. They came nine columns deep. Eight lines faltered and vrer^ broken by iheobsiinancyof our defence; but tnenlmh broke over our forces like a whirlwind. He says the destruc- tion of theenemy was Immense. Our loss, we think, consisted mainly in the prisoners taken by the enemy. Ailtbe prisoners whom we captured were drunk, hav- ing been prepared according to Yankee tactics forthe dreadful ordeal. Lieutenant General A. P. Hill was certainly killed. General FitzLee was not killed,aa reported, nor General W. H. F. Lee. No gx-neral officer from North Carolina was killed, as far ashe heard.

Monday morning represent that the scene which followed the evacuation of the city by our troopsbeggars d..scription. To preserve order and pro.ect the property of the citi- sens who unavoidablyremained there.as far afl could he doue, the NrntteentJ* Virginia mi.itla, undei Coiouul Brans, wasplaced on police duty in the city, to aw^t, the coming of the enemy; out accounts state that theylfailed to render any aid or protection to the peoplo^ whatever. On Sunday night a mob of the lowerrlassej of the city, composed, it is said, mostly of the foreign 0 element, visiteil a number of thelargest store-honsei Of the city and robbed them of their contents. It Is af-j firmed that Main streetwas pillaged, and then burned.|| and that some of the milling establishments were also committedto the flames. We have no doubt that acon- Siderable portion of the brave city has been laid in ashesand a number of its people Insulted, outraged, robbed, and massacred How painful the thoughtthat the place should be given over to r iplne and plunder, even be- fore the public enemy entereiits limits. But the fact only proves that the peopl3 of Richmond have had se- cret enemies In theirown midst scarcely less savage and even more treacherous and vindictive than the open foe. We aretold that the people banded together during the violent proceedings of the mob and resisted themwith force, a street fight ensuing, in which several persona were killed. No intelligence has reachedus of the enemy's troopg occupyin;the city. The last trains on the Danville railroad which came outof the place left Monday morning and passenger-^ upon them had heard nothing from tlie enemy.Tne greater portion of Grant's army was transferred to the south side of James river some days ago,only the command of Geceral Ord, which is composed mostly, if not entirely, cf negro troops, be- inglt.'ft on the north side. This command will enter and occupy the city. Some of our people who areac- quainted with the character of General Ord think they have reason to hope that his treatmentof the unfortu- nate people of Kichmond will not be so hard, and cruel and inhumin as ttiat whichhas fallen upon the heads |Of our ftdlow citizens In 8<mie other captured cities. The newspapersof Richmond, we suppose, till fell Into the hands of the enemy. The evacuation of the city was sosudden and unexpected scarcely any one being prepared for it that no time was left for the re- movalof so cumberous an establishment as a city newspaper office. In a few days we may expect to hearthat the Enquiier or the Whig or the Examiner Is issued as a Yankee paper. All the rolling stock on theRichmond and Danville Railroad iu rmming order was saved on the retreat from Richmond. A few oldcars, not in a movable condition, were left at Manchester. No train was cap- tured by the enemy nearthe junction, as was at one time reported, and, Ineeed. we do not believe that any body of Yankeeshad struck the road at any point up to yesterday evening. The Secretary of War, the QuartermasterGen- eral, Commissary General and a number of other officers of and government, left hiclmiondon horso- baek and will probably arrive at this place to-mor- row. Should General Lee establish hislines east of the junction, we suppose the State Legiolature will be con- vened at Lynchburg. All thespecie and other valuables belonging to the banks at Richmond were removed from the city onSunday, aad have been carried to places of safety. A considerable amount of goods purchased hvthe State for dlatribuaon to tlie people, we regret to leara: yet, that we recollect of, i posed, even

Newbern, N. C, April 10,1865. THE ABMT CNDER ORDERS TO MOVE. Some portionsof Sherman's' army jeceived orders three or four days ago to be in readiness for marching orders,and it was the original intention that the army should move on the'7th. Grant's successes, however,have somewhat changed the programme, and, although the time of moving is delayed a day ortwo, yet there will not he,much di.Terence in the results. Some of the army, the Seventeenth corpsparticulariy, were to have commenced moving this morning, and as Johnston is now said to bemaking off in the direction of DanviUe and Hills- boro, and Grant is pushing in the direction of Lynch-burg or Danville (at this writingj, of coqrse Sherman will also take a step in that direction. i-. >. Sincetho burning of the vessels on the Neuse river a few mornings Eiuoe, no further demonstrations havebeen made on our communications. That wasan iusignlfirant affair, comparatively, and a small guardcould easily have prevented it. T^o raiders also burned the upper works of the steamer Mystic, whichwas sunk In tho river a fortnight since. All but her upper works was under water, and her damage,therefore, is slight. It is also reported that the small steamer, General Shopley, fta.s burned at thesame lime, but I have not heard this confirmed as yet. These interruptions do not interfere at all withthe sending for':Vard of sr.ppli.'^s. 1 mentioned in my last tbat General Howard had estab- lishedhisbusin^^ss headquarters hnre^ altliongh the Gen- Easton, Chief Quartermaster Military DivUlonof the filis- sissippi, has also removed his headquarters to this place, and General Beckwith, ChiefCommissary of Sherman's army,has also done the same. General Sherman's but^ness headqaarters(aside from his field headquarters at Golds- boro,) are also to be established here, having arrivedyes- terday. These straws, together with the fact that other prominent officers connected withSherman's army arc eptablishing thempclves hero, are taken by many as indl- catioER that this is lobo continued as a base for eome time yet, with perhaps Raleigh as tne extreme inland base alter tIs taken, if Sherman chooses to move on that line.
