DAILY ARGUS, Saturday -APrU THE NATION'S SORROW. DEATH OE THE FRES1 DENT AND TUB SECRETARY OF STATE. PROCLAMATION BY THE MAYOR Mayor's Ofticx, Rock Island, April 15, 1865. The President of the United States, and the Secretary of State hate been assassinated, and the mournfal news of their deaths has been officially received. In view of this sudden and most deplorable calamity, I hare thought it best to invite the citizens of our city to meet in the Court House this evening (Saturday the 15th, at 7J o'clock) to appoint committees and make such arrangements as to them may seem such publio demonstrations of sorrow on the part of our people, at some suitable time, as is due the memory of the distin guished statesmen who have thus been so suddenly and cruelly taken from us.

It is a publio calamity of so serious a character that it calls for the united and sin cere sorrow of all true friends of their coun try. Bailit Daykkport. Mayor. A Most Horrible Deed: ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND WILLIAM SEWARD ASSASSINATED AND KILLED! The Ration will Mourn this most Shocking Crime. We are astounded by the horrible intelll gence of the assassination and death of Abra ham Lincoln, President of the United States, and "William H.

Seward, Secretary of State, of the United States. The few details we hare at this writing (10 A. M. Saturday) do not enable us to form any correct judgment of this most horrible crime. But whatever miT have been the cause, it is an event, which all good citizens will most deeply deplore.

The loss of these men will be mourn ed, universally, throughout the north, great public calamity. as a To the people of the Bouth it will also be an event most deeply deplored, for the reason that thev mnv now fear they cannot so easily be restored to peace and the union. We can sinoerely say that it is the saddest event of the war, one which the whole communitY will mourn with unfeigned sor row. A bold, bad man is now to be president, and we fear that his election may not lead to such pacific and satisfactory results as would the action of the two distinguished statesmen who have been so horribly murdered. THE MALIGNANTS, The Chicago Journal has come to be one of the most malignant of the newspapers.

It is exceedingly bigoted and vindictive against all who do not look at tnings iruui no uu i ttuuio see a universal hanginz of people who havenj been prominent in the rebellion. It is offended because the administration treats Lee wtih any consideration, and says "he ought to be placed in some safe prison until he can have his trial for high treason." There is a little squad of "unconditional" malignanta in this city too insignificant in numbers, and too contemptible in ability, to deserve much attention. But they are very anxious to have somebody hung. With minds too small to comprehend anything beyond the ranee of their limited vision, their ideas oi etatemanship 'are bounded by vengeance, mobs, assasinations, and persecutions. They are of the same class as the Rev.

Mr. speech, at the celebration, breathed spite and yindictiveness, and who, in a recent sermon in the methodist church, showed more the spirit of a devil than a christian. These people are continually vaunting their superior "loyalty," and provoking a state of feeling which it should be their duty to allay. They, aa Henry Ward Beecher ays, "have fallen into the easy sin of vengeance." They seem not to have learned that! vengeance is not a part of Mr.Lincoln's plan, and that his leading newspapers, such aa the New York limes, the Washington Chronicle, the New York Independent, and others, have now taken the old democratic ground that the people of the south, now they are oonquered, must be conciliated and reconciled. The democratic party are satisfied with the apparant purpose of Mr.

Lincoln to adopt a policy worthy of a magnanimous people whose object is peace and a restoration of the Union, and not vengeance and persecution. P.S. The sad news of the death of Messrs Lincoln and Seward we fear will cause a re turn to the vindictive policies of Andrew, Johnson. IiIETJT. SHAUGHNESSY MORTALLY WOUNDED.

Ira Crawford, of Hampton, has received a letter from his eon, in the Rock Is-1 land company, now at Mobile, in which it is stated that Lieut, Shaughnessy was mortally wounded, in the engagement before Mobile No particulars are given. It is also said that the company suffered considerably! in the engagement. The following paragraph from the latel Hon. Edward Everett's oration at Gettys burg, expresses as truly to day as then.thel sentiments of the northern people toward the) leaders of the great rebellion, now happily drawing to its -close xce people ot loyal America will never! take to their confidence, or admit again to a share in their government, the hard-hearted men whose cruel lust of power has brought! tms desolating war upon tne but there is no personal Ditterness lelt. even against them.

Ibey may live, if thev can bear td live, after wantonly causing the death of sol many thousand lellow men they may live in safe obsourity beneath the shelter of the goverment they have sought to overthrow, or they may fly to the protection of the govern ments of Europe some of them are already there, seeking, happily in vain, to obtain the aid of foreign powers in furtherence of their own treason. There let them etav. The humblest dead soldier that lies cold and stifi in the grave before us, is an object of envy beneath the clods that cover him. in comnari son with the living man who is will to grovel at tne iooi ot a loreign throne lor assistance in compassing the ruin of his country.
