Mr, Seward writes under date of Washington, April 14:— I thank you sincerely for the kind expression of sym- pathy coniained in your letter of yesterday. My father’s condition, we think, is now gradually iinproving from day to day, though he still suffers much pain. THE CITY IN MOURNING. The intonse feeling of grief among the people at the i untimely demise of the President was amply reflected in a the robes of death which darkened every thoroughfare of this city yesterday, The spectacle presented was worth ® thousand homilies on affliction and death, New York, which had countless banners waving in the sunlight of ood Friday—whose citizens were holding a peorlces .arnival over the trophies which signalled the restoration the acquaintance with the lecalities about Washington eceseary to accomplish his villanous purpose. Nop were the nervous, excitable, flighty temperament, the ‘Snrestrained passions and the unbridled audacity requi- ite for the conception and execution of such a deed Weaating in his composition. But his friends and ac- quaintances never thought that he had the murderous cart, the moral poltroonery and the inexpressible wiokedness which stamp the assassin as the vilest of God's creatures.
