The fact of the fracture sp the door is thus explained. Itis eertam that the pistol was held close tothe head of th.

Yeeterday, Surgeon General Barnes, assisted by Doctors Stone (the late President's family physician,) Curtis, Woodward, Crane, Tafit, and other emivent medica! men, made an au- topsy im the presence of President Johnsen, | Gen. Avgurand Gen. Rucker. The external appearance of the face of the President pre- sented a deep black stain around both eyes. The tatal wound was on the left side of the head behind, in & line with and three inches trom the left ear. The course of the ball was oblignely forward the right eye, crossing the brain in an oblique manner, and lodging a tew inches behind thateye. ln the track ot the wound were found fragments of bone which | had been driven forward by the ball, which was imbedded in the anterior lobe of the left Bemisphere of the brain. The orbit plates of both eyes were the seat of comminuted fracture, and the eyes were filled with ex. trayaeated blood. The serious injury of the orbit plates was «due to the contr: result of the intense shock of so !a: yeetuule fired so closely to the head. was evidently a Derringer, hand-cast, and from the neck had been clipped. A shaving of lead nad been removed from the ball in its passhge through the bones of the siull, and was found in the orifite of the wound. The first fragment of bone was found two anda half snchee within the brain; the second and larger Tragment &bout four inches from the orifice of the wound. The bail lay still further in ad- vance. The wound was about one-hailfinch in «uameter. Tbe autopsy fully confirmed the epinion of the surgeons on the night of the as. SSfetnaton, that the wound was mortal. “WAKD AND SON, to be favorable this morning. That of Mr Frederik W. Seward, we regret to say, 4s not to hopeful.

We have reason to believe that Secre‘ary Seward received several months since an in- timation from Europe that something of a very Gesperate character was to transpire at Wash- 4ngton, and it is more than probable that the intimation bad reference te this plot of assas- sination. ‘HE CONSPIRACY.

THE OATH PLAYED OUT. A number of rebel officers who arrived here this morning by the mail boat frem City Point, asked permission to take the oath of allegiance, which request was not granted {for the present, and they were committed to the Old Capitol. ‘The following persons, who are well known in this city, were recognized as being among the number as they passed along the streets: N. R. Vansant, formerly a lieutenant in the U. S. Navy, and attached to the Observatory; —— Middleton, who at one time resided near 12th and M streets; Phil and Tem Hungerford, late of the Pension Office, and well known in the Second Ward. THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF PRES- IDENT, JOHNSON. After receiving the oath, and veing declared remarked: “GENTLEMEN: I must be permitted to say that I have been almost overwhelmed by the announcement of the sad event which has so recently occurred. I teel incompetent to per. form duties so important and responsible as those which have beenso nnexpectedly thrown upon me. As toan indication of any policy which may be pursued by me in the adminis. tration of the Government, I have ‘o say thar that must be left for development as the ad- Minisgration progresses. The message or de- claration must be made by the acts as they transpire. The only assurance that I can now giveof the future.is referencetothepast. The course which I have taken in the past, in con- nection with this rebellion, must be regarded as & guerantee of the future. My past public life, which has been long and laborious, has been founded, as I in good conscience believes upon a great principle of right which lies at the basis of ali things. The best energies of my life have been spent in endeavoring to es- tablish and perpetuate the prirciples of free government,and I believe that the Govern ment in passing through its present perils will settle down upon principles consonant with Popalarrights more permanent and enduring than heretefore. I must be permitted to say, if I understand the feelings of my own heart, that I { have long hibored to ameliorate and elevate the condition of the great mass of the Ameri- can people. Toll, and an honest advocacy of the great principles of free government, | have been my lot. Duties have been mine, consequences are (od’s. This has been the foundation of my political creed, and 1 tee) that m the end the Government will triumph, and that these great principles will be perma- nently established. In conclusion, gentlemen, letmesay that 1 want your encouragement and countenance. I shall ask andrely upon you and others, in carrying the Government through its present perils. I feel, in making this request that it will be heartily responded to by you and all other patriots and lovers of the rights and interests of a free people.” At the conclusion of the above remarks, the President received the kind wishes of the friends by whom he was surrounded, and a few minutes were devoted to conversation, All were deeply impressed with the solemnity of the occasion, and the recent sad occurrence that caused the necessity for the speedy inaug- uration of the President, was gravely dis- cussed. Mr. Johnson ts in fine health, and has anearnest sense of the importaat trust that has been confided to him. THE MURDERER’S BROTHERS, Crxciynati, April 15.—Junius Brutus Booth brother of J. Wilkes Booth, was announced to | appear at Pike’s Opera House to-night, but it is understood was compelled to leave the city | in great haste ‘ Boston, April 15.—Edwin Booth, brother of the assassin of the President, has been playing &n engagement at the Boston Theatre for the past three weeks, and was to have taken his farewell this evening. He was stopping with a friend in the city when the terribie intelli- gence-was conveyed to him. He was thrown into the greatest affliction. It is not likely that he will ever appear upon the stage again.

DANVILLE, VA., April 5, 1S65.—The General- in-Chief found it necessary to make such move- ments of his troops &s to uncover tke capital. It would be unwise to conceal the moral and material injury to our cause resulting from the oceapaiin of our capital by the enemy. It is equally unwise and unworthy of us to allow our Own energies to falter and our efforts to become relaxed under adverses, however calamitous they may be. For many months the largest and finest army of the Confederacy, under the command of a Jeader whose presence inspires equal confi- dence in the troops and the people, has been greatly trammelled by the necessity of keeping {| constant watch over the approaches to the capital, and thus has been forced t ferego more than one opportunity for promising en- terprise. It is for us, my countrymen, to show by our bearing under reverses how wretched bas been the self-deception of those who have believed us less able to endure misfortune with fortitude, than to encounter dangers ‘with courage. We have now enlered upon & new phase of | the struggle. Relieved from the necessity ot guarding prticular points, our army will be free to move from point to point to strike the enemy in detail far trem his base.
