Propesed bscription for their Benefit—- ‘arm and Mansion to be Purchased. PHILADELPHIA, May 5.—A subseription has been started here for raising funds to be ap- Plied to the purchase of a farm-homestead, with an appropriate mansion, near Spring- field, Illinois, for the family of President Lin- coln. It is intended to ‘be a tribute from & etal) aay 3 to the merits of their beloved martyred President, by which his family may be rendered independent snd his memory per- pond in a practical and useful manner. ndividual subscriptions are not to exceed five dollars, the money to be enclesed to Jay Cooke & Co, or any of their loan agents, to be pub- licly reported. The fund is to be disposed of by Senator Harlan, Secretary of the Interior, and Joseph H. Barrett, Commissioner of Pen- sions. It is proposed that subscriptions for this object be taken up in the churches and elsewhere throughout the country, with the mame of the donor on a slip of paper, to ac- company the amount subscribed. THE PRESIDENT’S MURDER. A Letter from W. C. Cleary—He Denies all Knowledge of the Plot—Saunders and Beverly Tucker Again Heard from. ToronrTo, C. W.,May 4.—William C, Cleary» one of the parties for whom President John- son offers @ reward, publishes a letter that there is not a particle of truth in the statement that he concerted or incited the assassination of President Lincoln, and he asserts that he knew nothing whatever of it tillit had been committed. iThe Manifesto of Saunders and Tucker. MOoBSTREAL, May 5.—George N. Saunders and Beverly Tucker are out with another manifesto to-day, addressed to Andrew Jokn- son, in which they accuse him of a hellish plot to murder their Christian President, but give no particulars. They agree to go to Rouse’s Point or some other place,and be tried on the charge made in the President’s recent procla- mation, if the United States Government will pay for their defence and guarantee their safety, FROM CALIFORNIA, Arrest of Assassin Sympathizers —Move- ments of the People on the National Loss. San Francisco, May 2.—The municipal election in Los Angelos to-day resulted in the election of the entire Union ticket. This place bas always heretofore been strong secession sympathizing district. San Francisco, May 3.—General McDow- ellis moving several companies of troops for the protection of the land routes to Idaho, along which the Indians are troublesome. Several more arrests have been made of per- sons in this State and Nevada, for rejoicing at the deatn of the Presideat. A considerable number of these flends are under duress at Fort Alcatraz. A movement has been started here for dollar subscriptions to a fund for a testimonial to Mrs. Lincoln. Itis also proposed to build a monument to Mr. Lincoln’s memory. New York Gold and Stock Market. Nzw YorK. May 5.—At theevening board gold was 142%, Erie, 593; Hudson, 110; Read- ing, 101; Cumberland 17;. Market weak and very dail. Financial. From the N. Y. Commercial, May 5th.j ‘he market for securities is dull and un- settled. At the morning board prices were gen- erally weaker, with no disposition to operate largely for either a rise or a fall. The ‘‘bears” continue to hammer the market, but with no further success than checking the tendency to- ward higher prices. Governments are quiet, pending the absence of newsfrom Europe. The general expecta- tion favors an ultimate material advance, though it is thought possible that the news of the President’s assassination may produce there a temporary sharp downward turnin the price of five-twenties. Gold continues strong at about 143. The expectation of a reaction in American financial affairs in Europe,on the news of the assassi- nation conspiracy, is the chief cause of the strength. Money is in ample supply, and without change in rates. The quotation on call loans is4}ga5 percent. On business paper the lowest rate isG per cent.; the prevailing rates being 63587 per cent. Fereign exchange continues dull, chiefly from the indisposition to pay the present high rates. The leading drawers are asking 110 for 60 days sterling, but without effecting any im- portant sales. Sterlingis veryscarce. Francs are quoted 5,11 4a5,11X, with light transac- tions. The N. Y. Post says: As to the future course of government and railroad securities there is much diversity of opinion. Itis supposed by some that as the Tise from the lowest prices of April has been considerable, 1t1s natural te expect a down- ward reaction, especially as the bears, who have heavy contracts falling due during the next ten days, will find it to their interest to depress the market to the utmost of their power. Others, however, claim that as money seems likely to continue easy, and the financial affairs of the country show gratifying indica- tions of improvement and increasing prosperi- ty, an impulse will be given to all departments of mercantile, manufacturing and commercial enterprise, and thus an impulse will be given to speculation and an upward tendency to all sound dividend paying securities. The Boston Traveller of the ith says: There is a large amount of idle money in the market, which is freely otfered to borrowers on call, at six, andin some cases at five per cent. The currency loan 1s absorbing a good deal of it, which is held by the national banks, subject to dratt from the Treasury, when re- quired for the publicservice. Prime paper continues scarce, and some of the best notes are taken in the street at seven percent. The stock market is pretty firm, but without ani- mation. Thé Rebel Leaders. The antecedents of the rebel leaders, for which President Johnson has offered a reward, ought to be familiar to the public. Jacob Thompson was for several years a member of the be cbbe States Congress from Mississippi, and Secretary of the Interior Department during the greater part of Mr. Buchanan’s administration. He resigned when his State seceded, and on the inauguration of hostilities accepted military service, He was for nearly two years in command of a regiment, and sub- sequently became Inspector General for the Department of Mississippi. For a year past he has served the Contederates in a diplomatic capacity. Clement UO. Clay was formerly Sen- ator in the United States Congress from Ala- bama, and since the war served in the Confed- erate Congress in a similar capacity, except- ing the past ten months, spent in Canada. George N. Sanders, a noted politician, and Naval Agent for the port of New York under Mr. Buchanan, is a native of Kentucky, and Was a great friend of Senator Douglas. He entered into an agreement, in 1962, to furnish the Confederate Government with six iron clads, to be builtin England. Sanders made his way through the North to Canada, dis- guised as a Cornishman. The Confederate Government, however, annulled the contract with Mr. Sanders, whosubsequently returned to Canada. He prejected the peace negotiation which resulted in the issuance of Mr. Lincoln’s roclamation, “To whom it may concern.”, everly Tucker is a Virginian, published the Sentinei newspaper in Washington in 1850, and was Consul to Liverpool from 1856 to 1880. Wm. C. Cleary, Secretary of Mr. Clay, is from Harrison County, Ky., and fled from that State to the Southin 1261.

Tux TRAVEL TO VIRGINIA._The Bay line of steamers are crowded every afternoon with arties visiting Fertress Monroe, Richmond, Petersburg and all the counties lacent to those places.

LATEST FROM RICHMOND. We glean the following from the Richmond Whig ot yesterday: THE ARREST OF THE Excr ince CoMMIs- SIONERS of the late Confederate Government ‘was noticed yesterday. Lieut. Col. Hatch, it appears, was arrested upon an order from Washington, and had an examination before Maj. Gen. Ord, who heard the evidence and discharged him. The charge, as we understand it, was mal- appropriation of funds sent to Richmond from the North for the relief of Federal prisoners of war. Subsequently, Hatch was rearrested upon another order from Washington, recom- Mitted to the Libby, and his dweliing, papers and effects taken in charge by the Provost Marshal. Report says about $26,000 in green- backs, a considerable sum in gold, and a large amountin Confederate money was found in his house and turned over to Brig. Gen. John E. Multord, Federal Agent of Exchange. Com- missioner Ould is still in the Libby, on charges affecting his integrity as Agentof Exchange. THE ScHoors of this city, public and pri- vate, have been generally re-opened under the order of Gen. Ord, and well attended. Tne schools for colored children, of which there are fonr or five in operation, are also in a flourishing condition. THE City MARKETS exhibit a steady and gradual improvement, with everything in abundance. Fine shad were to be had for 50 cents per pair. Fish were cheaper. Hams sold at 30 cents per pound—the same at which they are quoted in the Northern markets. THE SIDEWALKS throughout the burnt dis- trict are nearly as free now from obstraction as they were befere the ruins blocked them up. This clearing up has been accomplished through the energy of the military authorities, who set the idle negroes to work immediately upon the occupation of the city. Col. Moore N. Falls, of Baltimore, President of the Bay Line of Steamers Company, was in Richmond yesterday. completing arrange- ments for the running of the new line of steamers between this port and Baltimore. Col. Falls is also looking after his own and other stockholders’ interests in the Seaboard and Roanoke and other railroads in Virginia. Samuel Shoemaker, Esq., the Baltimore agent of Adams Express Company, was also in the city on business connected with the re-estab- lishment of the express line South. He also Tepresents an interest in several of the rail- roads. Col. Robert B. Coleman, of the Eutaw House, Baltimore, has been in the city several days, looking round among the he‘els with an eye to the prospective assumption of the control of one of them, We learn that the Directors of the Philadel- phia, Richmond and Norfolk Steamship Com- any, which withdrew its vessels at the reaking out of the war, have resolved to com- mence operations again. New steamships are im ceurse of construction, and the trips be- tween Philadelphia and this city will probably be resumed about the Ist day of July. The order of the Secretary of War prohibit- ing civilians from taking passage on any of the Government mail boats, exeept upon a spccial order, has had the effect of stirring up private enterprice, and the good effect has been appa- rent in the establishment of several new lines of steamers to accommodate the? traveling public. The latest proposition looks to the establish- ment of a new line of steamers between Wash- ington and Richmond, and a number of prom inent Northern ship owners are in counselover the proposition. One of the greatest wants of Richmond al- ways has been want of room and expansion. Richmond to-day is in small clothes, not the capacious business suit .of other Northern cities. To-day, dwellings for families of moderate means are so scarce that there cannot be found one to rent in the whole city. Capitalists would render a lasting benefit to the city if they could be induced to break the bonds of this “pent-up Utica,’ and bnild in Sidney, and other suburban points, residences of modern pretensions, but commodious and respectable enough to inyite to their occu- pancy the middling class of the population. The Petersburg Railroad is running daily, cars starting from the south side of the river, which is reached by the pontoon bridge. ~ The 2d and 5th corps ot the Army of the Po- tomac, Lieut Gen. Meade, have arrived in Manchester, where they await the arrival of the remaining corps. THE CAPTURE OF MACON. Howell Cobb Admits Rebel Subjugation, A correspondent with Wilson’s raiders gives the following particulars of the capture of Macon: After skirmishing all day on the 2ist instant, with a force of rebels in tront, we were met fourteen miles outside of Macon by a fiag of truce and a message from General Howell Cebb, saying that an armistice had been agreed upon between General Sherman and Johnston for a suspension of hostilities, with a view to a final settlement of our diffieulties. The message was received by Colonel Minty, commanding the 2d division, General Wilson at the time being several miles inthe rear. Colonel Minty regarded the message as a ruse for the purpose of stopping our advance until reinforcements could reach them, and consequently sent the following reply : HEADQUARTERS, C. C , IN FIRLD, NEAR MA- con, GA., April 20, 1865.—General: I have re- ceived the despatch from General Cobb, and have sent it by special messenger to Major Gen. Wilson, a few miles in my rear. As there may be some delay in receiving an answer, it is necessary for you to return immediately to Macon, to which place General Wilson’s re- ply willbe forwarded. I have directed the officer commanding my advance to move for- ward in five minutes after this is handed to you. Yours, truly, R. H. G. Minry, Commanding Second Division. Brigadier General Rubertson, OC. S. A. The advance upon Macon was made as di- rected, and, as General Robertson and his es- cort did not get out of the way, they were all captures, and we took possession of Macon. ere Gen. Wilson received official intorma- tion of the existing armistice, and the army have gone into quarters, to remain until fur- ther orders are received. There seems to be & prevailing opinion here that the war is over, andI have yet to see the first citizen who regrets it in the least. Board here has been ferty dollars per day, and every other necessary in proportion. I had quite an excited converation to-day with Gen. Cobb, who has been one of the most uncompromising secessionists in the South, and he expressed his opinion fully that the South was thoroughly subjugated. THE EASTERN AND WESTERN SHORE.—The Temoval of all restrictions to travel and trade with the Eastern and Western Shores of Maryland, the Eastern Shore counties of Vir- ginia, and the lower counties of the State of Delaware, has made quite a decided change in the appearance of the harbor, so tar as the coast and bay vessels are concérhed.

Bishep Simpsen’s Sermen. ‘ Itis a matter of regret that lack of space ‘will not admit the tall publication in our eolumns of Bishop Simpson's eloquent sermon at the grave of President Lincolm. No finer tribute contd haye been paid toany man than that uttered by the distinguished divine over the remains of our late President, and the hearts of the whole people will throb with re newed sorrow as they realize the justness of the eulogy. After reviewing at lengih President Lin- coln’s early political career, and the wusur- passed purity and wisdom of his management of the treasury, army and navy, the Bishop concludes with the following noble sentiments: “Abraham Lincoln was a good man. He ‘was known as An honest, temperate, forgiving man, & just man, & m&n of noble heart in every way. As to his religious experience | cannot speak definitely, because I was not priv: to know much of his private sentiments. y acquaintance with him did not give me the opportunity to hear him speak on this topic. E know, however, he read the Bible frequently; loved it for ite great truths and for its profounts teachings; and he tried to be guided by its pre- cepts. Ge believed in Christ, the Savieur of Sinners, and I think he was sincere, trying to bring his life into the principles of revealed religion. Certainly, if there ever was & man who illustrated eome of the principles of pure religion, that man was our departed Presi- dent.” * * * * x * “In his domestic life he was exceedingly kind and affectionate. He was a devoted hus- band and father During his Presidential term ie lost his second son, Willie. To an officer of the army he said, not long since:—"Do you ever find yourself talking with the dead?’? and added, ‘* Since Willie’s death I catch my- self every day inveluntarily talking with him, as if he were with me.” ‘Op his widow, who is unable to be here, I need only invoke the blessing ot Almighty God that she may be comfortea and sustained. For his son, who has witnessed the exercises of this hour, all that I can desire is that the man~ tle of his father may fall upon him. [Excla- mations of ‘“Amen.”) * * * * «Beside the goodness ofsuch 8 man, his fame was full, his work was done, and he sealed his glory by becoming the nation’s great martyr for liberty. He appears to have had a strange presentiment early in political life, that some day he would be President. You see it, iudeed, in 1639. Of the slaye power he said, “Brokea by it? I, too, may he asked tobowto it. I never will. The probability that we may failin the struggle ought not to deter us fromthe support of “ cause which I deem to be just.’ t shall not deter me, if I ever feel the soul within me eleyate and expand to these di- mensions, not wholly unworthy of its Al- mighty architect. It is when I contemplate the cause of my country deserted by ali the world beside, and I standing up boldly and clone, and hurling defiance at her vicarious oppressors. Here, without contemplating con~ sequences, before high Heaven and in the face of the world, 1 swear eternal fidelity to the just cause, as I deem It, of the land, of my life, my liberty, and my love; and yet, secretly, he said to more than one: ‘I never shall live out the 4 years ot my term. When the rebellion is crushed my work is done.’ * * * “And now, my friends, in the words of the departed, ‘‘with malice toward none,” free from. all feeling of personal vengeance, yet believing the sword must not be drawn in vain, let usgo forward in our painful duty. Let every man who was a Senator or Representative in Con- gress, and who aidedin beginning this rebel- lion, and thus led to the slaughter of our sous and daughters, be brought to speedy and cer- tain punishment. Letevery officer, educated at public expense, and who, having been ad- vanced to position, has perjured himself and turned his sword against the vitals of his coun= try, be doomed to this. L “I believe in the will of the American people. Men may attempt to compromise and to restore these traitors and murderers to society again, but the American people will arise in their majesty and sweep all such compromises and compromisors away, and will declare that there shall be no peace to rebels ; but to the de~ Inded masses we shall extend arms of forgive- ness. We will take them to our hearts and walk with them side by side, as we go forward to work outa glorious destiny. The time will come when, in the beautiful words of him whose lips are now forever closed: “The mystic cords of memory, which stretch from every battle field and from every pstriot’s grave, shall yield a sweeter music when touched by the angels of our better nature.” He! for Mexice. MYSTERIOUS EMIGRATION MOVEMENT—WHAT'S: IN THE WIND! It is very evident that the yaluable region of country known as Mexico occupies a very considerable share of attention. Several or- ganizations are being perfected in this city al? aE parently acting under one head. here is much mystery connected with the movement, but the idea of the Monroe doc- trime seems to be decidedly popular. Even some of the detectives who have been in Mexi- co, are rather shy in conversation on the sub- ject, but they would be delighted to visitthat place once more.” All they any, is, the move- ment is a “ big thing,” and “sufficient to-day is the evil thereof.” This is equivocal language, but accompanied with sly winks, nods, &., may be considered significant of something nore tegee ae at the present time to be made ublic. We hear of parties who desire to visit Mexi- co by water, instead of overland. Seventy men, who have seen sea and naval service, are already organized, and the commander is @ gentleman truly loyal, once in the service stationed in foreign waters. Itis also hinted that vessels are being or will be fitted out at Baltimore and manned by hardy crews. Our large cities are now over populated, and as itis likely the number will be swelled to an almost indefinite extent in a tew months, it is thought proper by the enterprising gentlemen engaged in the emigrant movement to prepare anvutlet. at once through which the tide of population may readily flow. Incident tojthis movement, there will be quitea demand for someof the United States vessels, to be sold to the highest bidder, in a short time.—Thiladelphia Press. Jerr Davis’ SPEciz Losr.—Ool. Clark, of the Rebel army, who was captured by one of our scouting parties wnile endeavoring to es— cape from Richmond on one of the last traing from the doomed city, asserts that he was in charge of all the specie which was removed from Richmond; that when his train broke down, and he found it impossible to get it on the track and off again, and seeing our forces approaching, he ordered it set on fire, and that all his efforts to saye the specie was unavailing; that the soldiers broke open the kegs, and ami the excitement and tumult, soldiers and citi- zens appropriated all there was. He asserts that he knows that no other amounts of specie not inthe pockets of its owners were taker from Richmond, and that this lot was alk stolen. He states further, that the amount has been vastly over-estimated, and confirms the statement heretotore made by Gen. Grant, that it amounted to only abont $200,000. Col. Clark was an old regular army officer previous to the breaking out of the war, and is a near re- lative to one of our most distinguished naval officers, to whom he communicated the above statements.

Reak estate throughout Canadas is heavily morte gaged. A fortnight’s notice has been given at one Springfield arsenal of the discharge of nine hundred more men from that establishment. This will leave between nine to ten bundred there, who will probably continue undisturbed for the present. {7 It is said tnat ex-President Pierce will petite marry a Boston girl, daughter of a cole mel. >The strike of the ship-carpenters em-= ployed at the Brooklyn navy-yard still eon- tinues.
