The Assassination of President Lincola— Immense Meeting in London. Loxpon, April 30.—On Saturday evening an immense public meeting conyenéd under the 5 eeeas of the Emancipation Society, in St. ‘James’ Hall, toexpress their feelings ot grief and horror at the assassination of President Lincoln, baepg te dered with the Government and people of the United States and with Mrs, Lincoln, Mr. Seward and his family. The galleries of the Hall were draped in black, and over theend gallery hungthe American flag. The Hall was crowded with an audience who manifested not merely warm admiration of the character and capacity of the Inte Presi- den:, and sincere sympathy with the people of the United States in their loss, but their hearty gebroval of the great cause Mr. Lincoln repre- sented, The platform contained an array of Parlia- mentary gentlemen, and many leading citizens ef the metropolis. Many ladies were present, @ majority of whom werein mourning. Vari- ous resolutions were carried, not merely with unanimity, but with an intense feeling rarely geen at public meetings. The chair was occupied by William Evans, President of the Emancipation Society. Messrs, Foster, Stansfield, Leathean, Taylor, Potter, Baxter und Barnes, members of Par- liament, commenced the proceeding with ex- pressions of their deep sympathy with the American Government and people, and their entire confidence in the Administration of President Johnson. The Chairman was sup- ported by twenty influential members of Par- liament, anda large array of distinguished Vice Presidents, representing every section of me community. Letters _of sympathy were read from Sir Uhatles Lyell, Lord Houlton, and others. Wm. €E. Forster, M. P., moved the first reso- lution: “That this meeting desires to give ut- terance to the feelings of griefand horror with which it has heard of the asssssination of President Lincoln, and the murderous attack on Mr. Seward, aud to convey to Mrs. Lin- coln andthe United States Government and people the expression of its profound sympathy and heartfelt condolence.” The weekly papers all coincide with the daily press in remarks on Lincoln’s assassina- tion. ‘The Army and Navy Gazette says’ ‘Noth- ing for many years has moved England like the telegram announcing the event.” It pays & warm tribute to Lincoln’s memory, and says the more one looks at the facts the more one sees that although President Lincoln is dead the Confederates are hopelessly beaten. The new steamer Queen, for the National line, was successfully launched at Laird’s yard on the 29th of April. The assassination continues to be the all- Tryading topic. Addresses of sympathy and Frdignation are most numerous. Parliament ‘will vote an address on the ist of May. Napoleon sent a messenger to the American Minister. The Prussian Government and Chambers also give expression of their sympathy. In the Hone o! Lords, on the 27th, Earl Rus- sell gaye notice that on the Ist of May he ‘would move an address to the Crown, express- ing the sorrow and indignation of the House at the assassination of the President of the United States, and praying her Majesty to convey an expression of her feelings to the Government of the United States. Earl Derby hoped the Government had taken pains to ascertain whether there was nothing in the form of the motion rendering it in the slightest degree doubtful whether unanimous assent shonld be given by the House to the BeAeAReu. 9G. PHBG 3 CEA the expression ot sorrow and indignation for the atrocious act committed would not only meet with the unan- imous assentof the House, but would repre- sent the feeling of every man, woman and child in Her Majesty’s dominions. Earl Rueéseli said the Earl of Derby was cor- rect in saying the circumstances were happily unprecedented, and he hoped there could be nothing in the form of the motion which would cause objection to be taken to it. _ In the House of Commons, Sir Geo. Gray, in the absence of Lord Palmerston, gave notice similar to that given by Earl Russell in the House of Lords, adding the address. The common council of London, the Amert- can Chamber of commerce of Liverpool, and public bodies in various partsof England haye scopied resolutions of sympathy and indigna- tion. Large numbers of Germans in London also presented an address to Minister Adams. We Americans in London, at the call of Fer- nando Wood, assembled in considerable num- bers at the Grosvenor Hotel on the 27th, to give expression of their sentiments, and at sugges. tion of Mr. Adams, who sent a letter to that effect, the meeting adjourned to the Ist of May, when @ great meeting of Americans will take Place at St. James Hall, under the presidency of Mr. Adams. The Times of the 2th says tt is not usimg the language of hyperbole in describing the pre- vailing manifestations of feeling as unexam.~ pled. President Lincoln was only the chief of @ foreign State, with which we were not un- frequently in diplomatic or political collision. He might have been regarded as not much more to us than the head of any friendly Gov- ernment, Ake hisend has already stirred the feelings of the public to the utmost depths, as the space of twenty-four hours has sufficed to fill the country rot only with grief and indig- nation, but toevoke almost unprecedented ex- pressions of feeling from the constituted au- thorities. The Confederate Mason writes to the Index to repel the assertion of Stanton in a letter of Mr. Adams’, that the acts were planned and set on foot by the rebels under pretense of avenging the South and aiding the rebel cause. He denies that Stanton has any evidence to substantiate his assertion, and says none will view the crime with more abhorrence than the people of the South. s) The Times, editorially referring to this letter, rejoices tosee Mason repudiate the crime, and says if the Sonthern States themselves do not utterly and even more emphatically renounce it and its authors they will forfeit all the sym- pathy which remains as the solace of their misfortunes. A despatch from Paris says that Napoleon, on reading the news of Mr. Lincoln’s death, sent one of his aides-de-camp to call on Minis- ter Bigelow, and to request him to convey to President Johnson the expression of profound afiliction and sorrow with which the odious crime had inspired the Emperor. It is reported that Qjueen Victoria will send 8 letter of condolence to Mrs. Lincoln and ex- press her sympath ywith the Americanjpeople.

(From the Cork Herald, April 27.} Lonpon, April 27th_—The Globe says the news from America will send a thrill of horror through the land. It is too soon to esti- Mate the depth and breadth oi the great ca- Jamity to America and Europe. Mr. Lincoln had come nobly through a great ordeal. He had extorted the approvaleven of his oppee ments, at least on this side of the avater. ‘hey had come reluctantly toadmire his firmness, honesty, fairness, and sagacity.

He was shot by a cowardly assassin. Who can say what flood- gate this act may not open, to what other crimes it may notlead? Thefuture, however, defiesconjecture. All we can do is to express @ grief that our trans-Atlantic consins should have been deprived of one who will hence- forth take rank among the best and most honest of American Presidents, P death blow. has a was Trail wo , be ye Aims vnte a Bpottess: name of a martyr as well as # patriot.” : The Dublin Evening Freeman ot a 26th says: “The greatest President of the Re- , Public since Washington fell by thehand Oran “ Sesassin.”” The Cork Heraid also contains an ofictal tele, fro: Secretary.

New York Gold Market. New York, May 10.—Gold closed at i31¥ this evening. [SECOND DESPATCH.]} Nrw York, May 10, evening.—Gold closed at 129%. Financial. {From the N. Y. Evening Post, May 10th.} The main feature in Wall street is the farther heavy decline in gold, in consequence of the turn in the foreign exchanges, and the suppo- sition that from the course of trade they will Tule still more decidedly im OUr I&vur. Tais decline has produced some uneasiness at the Produce Exchange; however, its eifects are less depressing and less extensive than had been anticipated. Gold is heavy. The opening price was 135M, and at the close it was offered at 13!\, after selling &t 131. This is the lowes: point hed since January, 1863. The loan market iseasy at5a6 percent There is some apprehension that from the large sub- scriptions to the seven-thirties some degree of stringency will be produced. Probably, how- ever, the able arrangements of the Secretary of the Treasury will prevent cet such result. The stock market opened dull, became ir. regular, and closed heavy. Goyernments are strorg and active. Railroad shares are depressed by the general indisposition to operate, and by the battering of the bears, who are reported to be under the necessity of purchasing to cever the heavy short contracts which are aboutsoon to mature. The Commercial says: The stock market is more animated, but shows a downward tendency in values. Tne steady decline in gold produces some misgiv- ings as to the prospect of dividends, it being expected that with the reduction in the price of produce, there must be a diminution in the rates of freight. While these misgivings are not so positive as to produce any general dis- position to sell ont, yet they check the current movement fora rise. The yalue of railroad stock at present, however, is much more regu- jated by antagonistic speculative cliques than by any considerations of real yalue. The “bulls” consider they have the “bears” yir- tually cornered, from the fact that the latter must, during the next fourteen days, cover an immense amount of short” sales. Until these operations commence, the ‘*bulls” are satisfied to barely maintain present quotations. After that they wil! probably hayeno objection to yield to the growing weakness of prices. Gen. JOHNSTON TAKING LEAVE OP HIS Starr.—The Greensboro’ N. C. correspondent of the . Y. Herald, May 4th, writes: This ORT General Joseph E. Johnston broke up his headquarters near this place, bade farewell to the members of his staif, ex- cept his personal aids, and proceeded to Char- lotte, The scene was an affecting one, and-all who witnessed it regarded itin that light. In the midst of a woods, at adistance ot twe miles from Greensboro’, were a few tents, some ‘wagons, and @ number of horses. No longer the headquarters’ guard pacea to and ie There was no bustle and no excitement; no hasty utterances and startling exclamations; none of the liveliness pertaining to active field service. The countenances and actions of both officers and orderlies bespoke an occu. pation gone. Soon after sunrise the General and staff rose and partook ofa frugal meal. A camp chest seryed them fora table, and the ground was used in lieu of chairs. The dishes ‘were not of china, nor were the spoons and torks used of silver, but both were of the most inexpensive kind. The meal over, their appe« tites appeased, orders were given and received, the tents struck, pérsonal property packed, the wagons loaded, and everything got in readiness to be moved. This accomplished, the General gathered his staff around him, and made a few remarks. He thanked them for their services, the aid they had rendered him, and hoped the future would be brighter than the present and the past. Few as the words and actions were, they embraced the parting scenes. By noon the wagons moved, and the General and those of his staff who proposed to journey his way, placed their horses and baggage on the cars and left for Ohariotte, and as they didso the headquarters of the rebel army of the Tennessee ceased to have an exis- tence—commencing its journey to histery and Posterity. —_—______ S7-Speaking of the wonderful depth ot feel- ing produced in New York by the death of President Lincoln, the New York Evening Post says:—In further illustration of the con- dition of the popular mind, we may here state what we have learned on the authority of Mr. Acton, one of the Police Commissioners, that during the past week there haye been fewer arrests for drunkenness and disorder than in any week since New York contained over one hundred thousand population. A§ Havny’t CAUGHT Him Yer.—An unsophis- ticated countryman, the other day, m town with a load of wood, saw a military of- ficer , followed at a respectful tps two. orderlies—all three mounted, and in gal- lop. “Good gracious!” said he, “shayn’t they cangbt him yet?
