The fact of the fracture in the door is thus explained.

THK CORPSE. Tbe corpse of the late President has been laid ontin tfte room known as the "Guests'itoom," >n tbe northwest wmp ol the White House. It is tressed in the suit ol black clothes worn by Kim at his last inauguration. A placid smile ree'* upon the leatures, and the deceased seems .o be in a calm - Jeep. "White ilowers have bren p»aced upon the pillow and over the breast above the kindest heart that ever throbbed. THE BODY TO LAY IN STATE. Tbe corpse of tbe late President will laid .n« in s'a'e in the Eas' Room on Tuesday in order to give tte public an opportunity to see once more the 1-atures of him they loved so wtll. The preparations are being made to that end ender tbe super vis.on of Mr. John Alexan¬ der, upholsterer. The catafalque upon which the body will rest is to b»» placed in the south par', of the East Boom, and is somewhat simi¬ lar in style to that used on tne occasion of the death of President Harrison. Steps will be placed at the Eide to enable the public to mount to a position to get a perfect view of the facc. Tbe vAtafclque will be lined with fluted white «atin, and on the outside it will be cov¬ ered wltn bla^k cloth and black velvet. THE FUNtKAL OF PRESIDENT LIN¬ COLN. It is understood that the taneralof Presi¬ dent Lincoln will take place on Wednesday neat. Rev. Dr. Gurley, of the Mew York avenue Presbyterian church, where the President and family have been accustomed to worship, will doubtless be tbe officiating clergyman. The remains will be temporarily deposited in the vault ol the Congressional cemetery, and hereafter taken to Mr. Lincoln'^ home at Springfield, Illinois. The remains of little Willie Lincoln are deposited in a vault a. Oak HU1 cemetery, we believe. The funeral car, which is being prepared lor tbe occasion, is to be a magnificent affair. It to to be built on a hearse body, the extreme length fourteen feet. The body of the car will be covered with black cloth from which will hang large lestoons of cloth on the sides and ends, gathered and fastened by large rosettes of white and black satin over bows of white ami black velvet. The bed ol the car on which th* colfin will rest will be eight feet from the ground, in order to give lull view of the coffin, and over this will rise the canopy, the supports of which will be draped with black cloth and velvet. The top ol the car will be decorated with plumes. The car will be drawn by six or eight horses, (probably white with black trap- pings,; each led by a groom. THE AUTOPSY. esteruay, Surgeon General Barnes, assisted by Doctors Stone (the late President's family physician,) Curtis, Wood ward. Crane, Taflt, and other eminent medical men, made au au¬ topsy in the presence ol President Johnson, Gen. Augur and Gen. Kucker. The external' appearance of the lace of the President pre¬ sented a deep black stain around both eyes The la-.at wound was on the left side ol the head behind, in a line with and three inches liom the left ear. The course ol the ball was obliquely forward the right eye, crossing the brain in an oblique manner, and lodging a tew inches behind that eye. In the track of the wound were found fragments of bone which nad been driven lorward by the ball, which *>v imbedded in the anterior lobe of the left hemisphere ol the brain. The orbit plates ol both eyes were the seat of comminuted Tractor*. and the eyes were filled with ex. travasated blood. The serious miuryofthe orbit plates was due to the centr*.coup.the result of the intense shock of so lar-e a pro- tectilo fired so closely to the head. The ball was evidently a lierriuger, hand-cast, and from tte neck had been clipped. A shaving of lsad had been removed from the ball in its passage through the bones of the skull, aud was found in the orifiJe of the wound. The fir<t tragment of bone was found two and a halt tncbee within the brain . the second and larger rragment about four inches from the orittce of the wound. Tne ball lay still tnrther in ad¬ vance. Tbe wound was about one-half mch in d.arceter. Tbe autopsy fully coiitirraei tbe epinicn of the surgeons on the uight of the as- sasstnation, that the wound was mortal. MK. SKWAkD AND SON.

We have reason to believe that Secre ary Seward received several months since an in- tiir.a-.ion from Europe that something of a very desperate character was to transpire at Wash¬ ington, and it is more than probable that tbe intimation bad reference to this plot of aesas- sination.

A number of rebel officers who arrived here this morning by the mail boat from City Point, a.fced permission to take the oath of allegian:e, which request was not granted tor the present and they were committed to the Old Capitol. ' j 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 & lieutenant in the V. S. Navy, and attached to the Observatory; Middleton, who at one time resided near 12th and M streets; Phil and Tcm Hunger ford, late of the Pension Office, and well known in the Second Ward. THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF PRFS I DENT. JOHNSON. j After receiving the oath, and oeing declared President of the United States, Mr. Johnson remarked: .'Gektlembn 1 must be permitted to say that I have been almost overwhelmed by the announcement ol the sad event which has so recently occurred. I leel incompetent to per- form duties so important and responsible as those which tave been so unexpectedly thrown opon me. As to an indication of any policy which may be pursued by me in the adminis¬ tration of the Government, I have o say that that must be left for development as the ad¬ ministration progresses. The message or de¬ claration must be made by the acts as they transpire. The only assurance that I can now give of the future is reference to the past. The course which I have taken in the past, in con¬ nection with this rebellion, must be regarded as a guarantee of the future. My past "public life, which has been long and laborious, has been founded, as 1 in good conscience believe, upon a great principle of right which lies a1 the basis of all things The best energies of my life have been spent in endeavoring to es¬ tablish and perpetuate the principles of free government, and 1 believe that the Govern ment in passing through its present penis will settle down upon principles consonant with popular rights more permanent and enduring than heretofore. I must be permitted to say, if I understand the feelings ol my own heart, that I have long labored 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 God's. This has been tbe foundation of my political c reed, and I ieel that in the end the Government will triumph, and that these great principles will be perma¬ nently established. In conclusion, gentlemen, let me say that I want your encouragement and countenance. 1 shall ask and rely 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 or the rights and interests of a free people." At the conclusion of the above remarks, the President received the kind wishes of the lriends 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. ."\Ir. Johnson is in fine health, and has an earnest sense of the important trust that has been confided to him. THE MIRDERLR'S BROTHERS. CivcissATi, April 15..J unius Brutus Booth brother of J.

He was stopping with a friend in the city when tbe terrible intelli¬ gence-was conveyed to him. He was thrown into tbe greatest att'.iction.

Dam villi, Va., April i, ltG5..The General- in-Chief found it necessary to mane such move¬ ments ol tiis troops as to uncover the capital. It would be unwise to conceal the moral and material injury to our cause resulting from the occiyiation of our capital by tbe enemy. It is equally unwise and unworthy of us to allow our own energies to falter and our eftorta to become relaxed under adverses, however calamitous thev may be. For many months the largest and finest army ot the Confederacy, under the command of a leader whose presence inspires equal confi¬ dence in the troops and the people, has been greatly trammelled hy the necessity of keeping constant watch over the approaches to the capital, and thus has been forced tfc ferego more than one opportunity for promising en¬ terprise. It is for us, my countrymen, to show by our bearing under reverses how wretched has 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 entered upon a new phase ot the struggle. Relieved from the necessity of guarding particular points, our army will be tree to move from point to point to strike the enemy in detail tar trwm his base. Let us but will it and we are Iree. Animated by tbat confidence in spirit and fortitude which never yet failed me, I an¬ nounce to you, fellow countrvmen, that it is my purpose to maintain your "cause with my hole heart and soul ; fcfaat I will never con¬ sent to abandon »o the enemy one loot of the . °>rhn3\0-n' ot the States of the uonfedera- :f' , irginia.^noble State.whose an- « has *>een eclipsed by her stilt has been banTdrf« 1 hlBtorJr: wh*se bosom fbis war w^e °o«eceive the main shock of hibited bermsm so subCe^T^^^/T* lustrioos in all time to come-thlt' vir^nil" with the help of Use people and k«^h iT* ot Providence, shall hJTheM ftS and no peace ever be made with ths mfa^non* invaders of her territory. infamous If by tbe stress ol numbers we should *v»r be compelled to a temporary withdrawal from her limits, or those ot any other border Sta»e again and again will we return, until the barred and exhausted enemy sball abandon m despair bis endless and impossible task of making slaves of a people resolved to be tree.

Practical tests having fully demonstrated the superiority of this machine over all others for the purpose of sinking Oil Wells, the.undersigned is now prepared to receive orders for the same. This machinery comprises everything requisite for the boring of oil wells excepting the BTElM ENGINE AND CAST IRON DRIVING PIPE, (but will be furnished, if desired, at a reasonable price.) and dispenses with the use of the derrick rope, bull wheel and other cumbrous and expensive fixtures now in use, and is so arranged, being con¬ structed cn wheels and portable, that it can be eaMly removed for the purpose of sinking wells in different localities. The dfctritusis removed fromthewell by ourpat- ent hydraulic process, and does eot require the r»-meval of thf drill from the boring. This pmee'i nqtocly removes all the detritus in from 5 to 10 minute*, but likewise effectually clears out and optng all the small oil veins that are so often en tirely c-Iced up by the old proeessof sand pumping. With this machine and a practical engineer, a well can be sunk from 4"<) to feet within a p«riod of from 15 to 3" days after the soil pipe has been driven. .Arrangements are being made for the construc¬ tion and delivery of these ma'-hiDes at New York, Norwich, Newburg, N.

Tbe corpse of the late President has been laidontin tfte room known as the "Guests'itoom,">n tbe northwest wmp ol the White House. It is

tressed in the suit ol black clothes worn byKim at his last inauguration. A placid smile

ree'* upon the leatures, and the deceased seems.o be in a calm - Jeep. "White ilowers have bren

p»aced upon the pillow and over the breastabove the kindest heart that ever throbbed.

THE BODY TO LAY IN STATE.Tbe corpse of tbe late President will b» laid

.n« in s'a'e in the Eas' Room on Tuesday in

order to give tte public an opportunity to see

once more the 1-atures of him they loved so

wtll.The preparations are being made to that end

ender tbe super vis.on of Mr. John Alexan¬der, upholsterer. The catafalque upon whichthe body will rest is to b»» placed in the south

par', of the East Boom, and is somewhat simi¬

lar in style to that used on tne occasion of thedeath of President Harrison. Steps will be

placed at the Eide to enable the public tomount to a position to get a perfect view ofthe facc.Tbe vAtafclque will be lined with fluted

white «atin, and on the outside it will be cov¬ered wltn bla^k cloth and black velvet.

THE FUNtKAL OF PRESIDENT LIN¬COLN.

It is understood that the taneralof Presi¬dent Lincoln will take place on Wednesdayneat.Rev. Dr. Gurley, of the Mew York avenue

Presbyterian church, where the President andfamily have been accustomed to worship, willdoubtless be tbe officiating clergyman.The remains will be temporarily deposited

in the vault ol the Congressional cemetery, andhereafter taken to Mr. Lincoln'^ home at

Springfield, Illinois. The remains of littleWillie Lincoln are deposited in a vault a. OakHU1 cemetery, we believe.The funeral car, which is being prepared lor

tbe occasion, is to be a magnificent affair. Itto to be built on a hearse body, the extremelength fourteen feet. The body of the car willbe covered with black cloth from which willhang large lestoons of cloth on the sides andends, gathered and fastened by large rosettesof white and black satin over bows of whiteami black velvet.The bed ol the car on which th* colfin will

rest will be eight feet from the ground, in orderto give lull view of the coffin, and over thiswill rise the canopy, the supports of whichwill be draped with black cloth and velvet.The top ol the car will be decorated withplumes. The car will be drawn by six oreight horses, (probably white with black trap-pings,; each led by a groom.

THE AUTOPSY.esteruay, Surgeon General Barnes, assisted

by Doctors Stone (the late President's familyphysician,) Curtis, Wood ward. Crane, Taflt,and other eminent medical men, made au au¬topsy in the presence ol President Johnson,Gen. Augur and Gen. Kucker. The external'appearance of the lace of the President pre¬sented a deep black stain around both eyesThe la-.at wound was on the left side ol thehead behind, in a line with and three inchesliom the left ear. The course ol the ball wasobliquely forward the right eye, crossing thebrain in an oblique manner, and lodging atew inches behind that eye. In the track of thewound were found fragments of bone whichnad been driven lorward by the ball, which*>v imbedded in the anterior lobe of the lefthemisphere ol the brain. The orbit platesol both eyes were the seat of comminutedTractor*. and the eyes were filled with ex.travasated blood. The serious miuryoftheorbit plates was due to the centr*.coup.theresult of the intense shock of so lar-e a pro-tectilo fired so closely to the head. The ballwas evidently a lierriuger, hand-cast, andfrom tte neck had been clipped. A shavingof lsad had been removed from the ball in itspassage through the bones of the skull, audwas found in the orifiJe of the wound. The fir<ttragment of bone was found two and a halttncbee within the brain . the second and largerrragment about four inches from the orittce ofthe wound. Tne ball lay still tnrther in ad¬vance. Tbe wound was about one-half mch ind.arceter. Tbe autopsy fully coiitirraei tbeepinicn of the surgeons on the uight of the as-sasstnation, that the wound was mortal.

A number of rebel officers who arrived herethis morning by the mail boat from City Point,a.fced permission to take the oath of allegian:e,which request was not granted tor the presentand they were committed to the Old Capitol.

' jThe following persons, who are well known

in this city, were recognized as being amongthe number as they passed along the streets:N. R. Vansant, formerly & lieutenant in the V.S. Navy, and attached to the Observatory;Middleton, who at one time resided near 12thand M streets; Phil and Tcm Hungerford, lateof the Pension Office, and well known in theSecond Ward.

THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF PRFSIDENT.JOHNSON. j

After receiving the oath, and oeing declaredPresident of the United States, Mr. Johnsonremarked:.'Gektlembn 1 must be permitted to say

that I have been almost overwhelmed by theannouncement ol the sad event which has sorecently occurred. I leel incompetent to per-form duties so important and responsible asthose which tave been so unexpectedly thrownopon me. As to an indication of any policywhich may be pursued by me in the adminis¬tration of the Government, I have o say thatthat must be left for development as the ad¬ministration progresses. The message or de¬claration must be made by the acts as theytranspire. The only assurance that I can nowgive of the future is reference to the past. Thecourse which I have taken in the past, in con¬nection with this rebellion, must be regardedas a guarantee of the future. My past "publiclife, which has been long and laborious, hasbeen founded, as 1 in good conscience believe,upon a great principle of right which lies a1the basis of all things The best energies ofmy life have been spent in endeavoring to es¬tablish and perpetuate the principles of freegovernment, and 1 believe that the Government in passing through its present penis willsettle down upon principles consonant withpopular rights more permanent and enduringthan heretofore. I must be permitted to say, if Iunderstand the feelings ol my own heart, that Ihave long labored to ameliorate and elevate thecondition of the great mass of the Ameri¬can people. Toll, and an honest advocacy ofthe great principles of free government,have been my lot. Duties have been mineconsequences are God's. This has been tbefoundation of my political c reed, and I ieelthat in the end the Government will triumph,and that these great principles will be perma¬nently established. In conclusion, gentlemen,let me say that I want your encouragementand countenance. 1 shall ask and rely uponyou and others, in carrying the Governmentthrough its present perils. I feel, in makingthis request that it will be heartily respondedto by you and all other patriots and lovers orthe rights and interests of a free people."At the conclusion of the above remarks, the

President received the kind wishes of thelriends by whom he was surrounded, and afew minutes were devoted to conversationAll were deeply impressed with the solemnityof the occasion, and the recent sad occurrencethat caused the necessity for the speedy inaug¬uration of the President, was gravely dis¬cussed. ."\Ir. Johnson is in fine health, and hasan earnest sense of the important trust thathas been confided to him.

in-Chief found it necessary to mane such move¬ments ol tiis troops as to uncover the capital.It would be unwise to conceal the moral andmaterial injury to our cause resulting from theocciyiation of our capital by tbe enemy. It isequally unwise and unworthy of us to allowour own energies to falter and our eftorta tobecome relaxed under adverses, howevercalamitous thev may be.For many months the largest and finest armyot the Confederacy, under the command of a

leader whose presence inspires equal confi¬dence in the troops and the people, has beengreatly trammelled hy the necessity of keepingconstant watch over the approaches to thecapital, and thus has been forced tfc feregomore than one opportunity for promising en¬terprise. It is for us, my countrymen, to showby our bearing under reverses how wretchedhas been the self-deception of those who havebelieved us less able to endure misfortunewith fortitude, than to encounter dangerswith courage.We have now entered upon a new phase ot

the struggle. Relieved from the necessity ofguarding particular points, our army will betree to move from point to point to strike theenemy in detail tar trwm his base. Let us butwill it and we are Iree.Animated by tbat confidence in spirit andfortitude which never yet failed me, I an¬

nounce to you, fellow countrvmen, that it ismy purpose to maintain your "cause with my'¦ hole heart and soul ; fcfaat I will never con¬sent to abandon »o the enemy one loot of the. °>rhn3\0-n' ot the States of the uonfedera-:f' , irginia.^noble State.whose an-
