"Never to speak of this that you have heard", by which he means the appearance of the ghost, although Horatio heard nothing from the ghost's lips. Also, "How strange or odd soe'er I bear myself . . .that you, at such times seeing me, never shall . . . note that you know aught of me." Horatio and Marcellus are not to suggest even that they have an idea why Hamlet is doing what he is doing.

Hamlet, Marcellus and Horatio say so in Act 1
Hamlet's friend Horatio was most loyal to him. Furthermore, in Act 1, scene 5, Hamlet makes Horatio and Marcellus swear loyalty to him and to never reveal what they have witnessed in the woods and Hamlet's interaction with his father's ghost.
Horatio was brought to Elsinore by the ghost of Hamlet's father, King Hamlet, who appeared to him and two of his fellow soldiers while they were on watch. Horatio was called by the ghost to tell Prince Hamlet that the ghost was his father and that he had been murdered by his brother, Claudius. Horatio was then tasked with convincing Hamlet that the ghost was telling the truth. Once Horatio had told the prince what the ghost had said, he suggested that Hamlet should act as if he were insane in order to ensure his safety and to help him uncover the truth of his father's death. Horatio also advised Hamlet to feign madness and use it to his advantage to find out the truth about his father's death. He also suggested that Hamlet should not act too hastily as he could be putting himself in danger if he made the wrong choices.

act madly, when really he is not mad.
The clowns, rather the gravediggers, talk like that because when they are talking Hamlet is not present. It is after one of the gravediggers has exited that Hamlet and Horatio enter.
Horatio has seen the Ghost.
The most important reason that Hamlet wants Horatio to tell everyone his story is that the only people who know that Claudius killed the former king are Hamlet, the Queen, and Horatio. Hamlet wants everyone in Denmark to know that Claudius was a murderer who obtained the crown through illegitimate means. Also, just before dying, Laertes (who had begun to have doubts about going through with the plan about halfway through the duel) begs for Hamlet's forgiveness and says that Claudius got what he deserved. Laertes says that if Hamlet forgives him for killing him, that he will forgive Hamlet for killing Polonius and him. Just after this, Laertes dies, and Hamlet forgives him. He seems to be fairly fond of Laertes and has a good amount of respect for him (for the most part) and wants everyone to know that Laertes was a good man and only Claudius should be held responsible for killing Hamlet and the Queen.
