There tw nothing that would be new in a minute description of the mournful scenes every whore to be wit- nessed after the entrance of the remains to the City Hall.

THE DEPORTMENT OF THR CROWD. The crowd that in a continuous stream passed the line ‘through the night was su h as never before was seen in Now York—theirdeporiment ao different from that of ‘the crowds we are genorally in the habit of witnessing here. No gladsomo laugh, no familiar greetings, no passing jests. Their faces all presented a totally differ- ent aspect, Grief was denoted on every countenance. A realization of the solemnity of the occasion was visible everywhere. Without the slightest crushing they passed ‘im a regular line by the remains. Some gazed longingly, lovingly, om the face of the dead, and tmany would have Pressed close to tho coffin, if but to toueh it with thoir fingors, were they permitted. Many wore the attempts made by ladies to kias the placid lips of the eorpse.

They may feel proud of having thus seen the remains of the saviour of their country, and inafter years, when time shall have besprinkled their yet young heads with silver streaks, may call back with feelings of pride that night in April when they, in Common with thousands of others, paid a last tribute to the memory of the great and good Abraham Lincoln, May the thought cause them to aspire to emulate his virtues, to equal his talents, INTERESTING INCIDENTS. During the progress of the crowd one lady, eluding the vigilant eyes of the officers, succeeded in imprinting a kiss on the cold brow of the corpse. No doubt her feelings were wrought up toa high pitch, for, on doing so, she burst iuto tears. Flowers covered the entire coffin. One lady, in passing it, threw on the coffin a piece of crape, to which was attached the following:— We deeply mourn our loss; but God doeth all things well. He deemeth what is best for us. A friend that sticketh closer than a brother Ax interesting feature in the crowd which passed the rately draped, and the chandeliers were covered with black cloth, APPEARANCE OF THE BODY. The remains rest on a pall, a short distance from the floor, in order to give all an opportunity to behold them. "The cottln, which bas been previously described, is mag- nificently mounted. The dead lies on an elaborate bed of | white satin, attired in a black dress coat and vest, which was folded, as in life, over the bosom of the shirt of the illustrious deceased, and gave tokens of his recent appear- ‘ance, when he swayed the destinies of the nation. There! seemed to be, however, gome traces of the struggle be- tweon the natural sequel of death and the spices of the embalmer. The mcuth, firmly compressed, wore a dark hue; the cheeks were hollow and receding, and the pri- mary signals of comparative decay were apparent. The plate on the lid of the coffin bore the inscription :—. eoesne-nreeoree: ABRAHAM LINCOLN, SixTERNTH PReMDENT OF THR UNrigD STATES. Born Jury 12, 1809. Dizp Arnn. 15, 1865.

But although private tickets were given to General Sandford, the particular friends of Gouncilmen and Aldermen, they did not prove very talismanic in thelr effects; fact many of those who got the tickets wished the donors at a long distance when they found that their| passes were only practically @ trap and a snare to get them into the mouldy depths of a basement from which there was no manner of escape; and then, and then only were they prepared to surrender their ‘‘cards’’ to who- ever would take the trouble to receive them. But nobody now wanted them. The entrance to the City Hall was crowded in such o way as we never saw it crowded before. To give any idea of tho thousands, or anything like the numorous thousands that were present, would be simply impossible, To describe the scenes it would be ‘best to say that they were all mournful and touching in the extreme. The people entered into the spirit of the national grief witha complete unanimity. It is along time, if ever, since such a spectacle has been witnessed in this or any other city. The police had their hands full, to use & common yet proper expression. But there was: no sign of agitation or difficulty of any kind.
