Why did Mary chesnut say Lincoln old Abraham Lincoln - killed you know this foul murder will bring down worse miseries on us?
By the time of Lincoln's assassination, the Civil War was over. Lee has surrendered along with Johnston and Forrest and most southern people believed that Lincoln would be far more gracious in reconstruction than the new President, Andrew Johnson. Mary Chestnut knew that with Lincoln having been murdered, the south would be treated far worse by the Union occupational troops and politically in Washington. She turned out to be completely correct.
Secretary of state in Lincoln's cabinet?
Abraham Lincoln's Secretary of State was William Henry Seward. Seward had been Lincoln's primary rival for the Republican nomination in 1860 (and also the favorite to win), but Lincoln defeated him. After the election, Seward was Lincoln's first and only choice for Secretary of State. At first, Seward was resentful of the man who had stolen the presidency from him, but he learned to appreciate Lincoln's subtle political genius, as well Lincoln's personality, which was similar to his own. By the time for the next election in 1864, Seward had become friend and confidant to the president, and worked hard to reelect Lincoln. The night Lincoln was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth, one of Booth's accomplices went to Seward's house to murder him as well. Seward was stabbed but not killed, and he went on to continue as Secretary of State under Andrew Johnson.

Why did they hang George Atzerodt if he didn't kill no one?
George Atzerodt was hanged because he was implicated in the conspiracy to assassinate President Abraham Lincoln, despite not having killed anyone himself. He was assigned to assassinate Vice President Andrew Johnson but failed to carry out the plan. His involvement in the larger conspiracy, which resulted in the death of Lincoln and the attempted murder of other key officials, led to his execution as a means of holding him accountable for his role in a significant threat to the nation. The trial established that even those who did not commit murder could still face severe consequences for participating in a conspiracy to commit such acts.

How did the north react to the murder of Lincoln after the civil war had ended?

That the presidents Lincoln and Johnson were wise in not seeking harsh treatment of the Southern states why or why not?
Yes they were, but the murder of Lincoln created a great political gap, that Johnson could not bridge because of his modest political influence and his excessive propension in favour of the former rebel States. Had not Lincoln been assassinated, his plan would have been probably applied although likely with some necessary amendments and those States would have avoided the most of troubles and hardships in recovering their economy and internal social order, which instead they had had to face for about a century after the Civil War.
