IDITOB1AL CORRESPONDENCE.
Caps Island, July 22, 1867.
The lflft few dajfi of warm weather
brought a lance addition of visitor to this
popular and fashionable watering place,
The change in the visngea of the hotel
keepers, which had , been considerably
lengthened by the cold and backward sea
eon, was everywhere apparent. 'People are
at last beginning In practice a little econo
my, and paying four dollars per day for tho
ordinary comforts and accommodations af
forded by tho hotels at these watering places,
has kept back a goodly number of the more
calculating frequenters of these fashionable
places of resort.
The facilities afforded by the railroad to
Cape May visitors, since its completion, is
of great importance. There are three or four
trains daily, and the fact line runs through
from Philadelphia in about throe Lours
The road traverses a part of New Jersey,
which, until a few years since, was deemed a
barren waste. But the railway has already
induced great changes. Six years ago,
Yineland, thirty -six miles, from Philadelphia,
through which the railroad passes, was not
in existence. ' Now it numbers about ten
thousand inhabitants.
' On returning from Cape May I stopped
over night and remained most of the next
day at Yineland. Mr. Landis, the enter
prising proprietor of the town, kindly af
forded me an opportunity of visiting the
improvements in the town and the adjoin
ing country, in company with an intelligent
ngent. The town proper occupies a square
mile, in lots of 60 feot front, by 160 deep,
The adjoining lots are mostly about 5 acres
each. One peculiarity is, that few or no
fences are to be seen, and as the law of the
township, since adopted by the whole coun
ty, prevents all kinds of cattle and stock
from running at large, no fences are requir-
. ed. The principal product of theBe small
farms are small fruits. There are hundreds
of acres of raspberries, blackberries and
strawberries. Two hundred and'sixty thou
sand quarts of strawberries were produced
this season. Dwarf and other pears do well,
The peach orchards, which are not yet bear
ing, look well. The trees, when planted, are
cut off within a foot of the ground, and are
grown low and bushy. Grape vines flourish
well. The Concord is generally preferred
One man has set out over 600,000 cuttings,
Mr. Landis, who is a gentleman of taste and
'. intelligence, seems to have the confidence of
the community. Ho has lately donated a
large lot of ground for a Seminary of learn
ng, which is to cost about $100,000. One
creditable feature of the town is the fact
that no liquor is allowed to be sold in any
shape, including malt and all intoxicating
1 drinks.
, A National Camp Meeting commenced
here on the 7th, to oontiue until the 20th,
. The whole of New Jersey and a number of
other States are represented, as far west as
Indiana. There are tents and buildings put up
'hat will accoramodite.witu board and lodg
ing, several thousands. On Sunday, over ten
thousand persons were on the ground. In
this respect it is said New Jersey goes ahead
of all other States.
It is generally supposed that Jersey is the
great peach State. This is not so. Delaware
takes the lead. The Jersey crop is estimated
at two hundred thousand baskets, while
little Delaware will produce over a million of
baskets, or six times as many as her. Jersey
rival.
tifTiiE more intelligent men of the
South who have hitherto sided with the
President in his quarrel with Congress, be.
gin to perceive that Mr. Johnson, whatever
may be his intentions, is practically the
worst enemy of tho South, and the main
obstacle in the way of proper relations be
tween that portion of the country and the
National Government. A recent editorial
in the Charleston Xetct, on Attorney General
Stanbery'a exposition of the Reconstruction
Laws, contains the following :
"Will the Republican party who passed
this act. and who have resolutely supoorted
the action of the military commanders, de
sert Gen. Sickles in such a case t Will not
the issue thus made become a party issue,
and who is to pay the costs of the contro
versy but our uniortunate selves I This is
not the first time that we have been made
to pay for our confidence in the President
He undertook to restore us to tho Union, if
we would perform certain conditions. We
fulfilled them have we been restored i
What has he succeeding in doing that be
has undertaken to do f Upon every occa
sion, from the convention between Sherman
and Johnston to the reconstruction act, be
ri as nnauy yielded, and we alone have suf
fered from the resistance. We nave too
much at stake now to repeat our errtors."
f37MB. Greeley, speaking of his own
nomination, in the Tribune, says ; "Wash
ington dispatches assert that Horace Greeley
was nominated on Saturday for Minister to
Austria. We do not believe Governor Sew
ard is the author of this practical joke. If
intended as a surprise to everybody, it can
have been successful with no one more com
pletely than with him who is its subject,
He is much obliged for the compliment, but
could not be induced to leave his country
at present, ' . . ,
Dodge's aaw mill, at Williamsport, on
Friday and Saturday ; last, cut with four
gangs of aaw 682,524 feet of lumber, 128,-
000 lath and 0,000 pickets. The Oaeette
says if any mill in the United States will
shqw an equal product from the same amount
of gates we will try again, being fully
satisfied that Dodge's mills can cut a thou
sand feet every two minutes for twelve hours.
Of this vast amount tawed in the two days,
not one hundred feet were spoiled.

al CcHUKKcx.In bis famous dissenting
opinion in the case of Borie vs. Trout, on
the point of the constitutionality of the
money which paid for the war, Judge Shars
wood says ! j ;.. '
"I am of the opinion that the provisions

declaring the notes issued in pursuance of
that act to be lawful money and a legal ten

On the back of each of, these same legal

ary 25, 1802, will be found the following
''endorsement" of the people of the United
States:' , . , ; ,. ; ' , .. i , ,
TniS ROTR IS A LEGAL TENDER for all
debts, public or private, except dnties on
imports and interest on the publlo debt, and
is receivable on all the loani made to the
United States. -
In 1802 all the bonds of the United States
were gold-bearing ; hence the restriction in
the endorsement, which is, however, in fa
vor and to the benoftt of creditors of the
Government the men who had lent it mo
ny to carry on the war and pay the soldiers.
With the Press we- join in asking if the
individual sovereigns of the country the
endorsers of the Government money will
vote for or against the man who impugned
their paper at the very time when their cre
dit was in peril T That printed clause on
the back of all these note is our endorse
ment on the paper of our Government. It
is just the same as if we, each of us, had
written our names on the back of the bill.
It means just the same as if we wrote our
names across the back of a note of a neigh
bor, only, instead of one, there are some
thirty millions of us who endorse the paper
of our Government, pledging our credit to
guarantee it. Judge Sharswood says the
endorsement is not good. After that will

THE BOOTH LETTER.
The following is the communication of
the actor Mathews, to the National Intelli
gencer, concerning his connection with the
letter entrusted to him by Booth :
Washington, July 17, 1807,
EdiUr Intelligencer:
Gentlemen : Much has been said in the
public prints in regard to the missing letter
ol Jonn Wilkes iSootti. As 1 am tue per
son to whom this letter was entrusted, I
know its contents and the circumstances at
tending its delivery into my hands better
than any person now living.
, It was on the afternoon of Good Friday,
April 14, 1885, at about four o'clock, that I
met John Wilkes Iiootue (on horseback) on
Pennsylvania avenue, at the triangular en
closure between Thirteenth and Fourteenth
streets. We met, shook bands, and passed
the compliments of the day. It so happen
ed that the officers of General Lee army
had .lUBt passed up in a body. I asked
Booth, "Johnny, have you seen Lee's offi
cers, just brought in t" He replied, "Yes,
Johnny, I have;" then, placing his hand
upon bis forehead, exclaimed, "Great God 1
I have no longer a country 1" Observing
his paleness, nervousness, and agitation, I
remarked, ,"joun, how nervous you are
what is the matter ?" To which be replied,
O, no, it is nothing:" and continued with.
"Johnny, I have a little favor to ask of you :
will you grant it f" "Why, certainly, John
ny," x replied : "what is it " tie then sta
ted : "Perhaps I may leave town to-night,
and I have a letter here which I desire to
bo published in the National Intelligencer;
please attend to it for me, unless I see you
bclore ten o'clock to-morrow ; in that case
I will see to It myself."
At tuat moment 1 observed General Grant
riding by in an open carriage, carrying also
bis baggage, beeing this, I called Mr.
Booth's attention to him, and said, "Why,
Johnny, there goes Grant. I thought he
was coming to the theatre this evening with
the President." "Where " he exclaimed. I
pointed to the carriage : he looked toward
it, grasped my hand tightly, and galloped
down the avenue after the carriage. That
was the last time I met him until I saw him
on the stage of Ford'e Theatre on the memo
rable night of the 14th of April. 1 lme pas
sed on. Many persons who knew Booth, or
bad ever seen him, were arrested and sent
to prison.' The secret of the letter was con
ll il in 1 ti a f ii tj AnnflilnnhBl frtanAa Anla
when I saw that the editors of the National
Intelligencer were suspected of having sup
pressed the document, and were interroga
ted in regard to it at the Penitentiary trial.
I considered it my duty to assume all re
sponsibility in the matter by explaining the
whole anair to the proprietors ot said paper.
Accordingly I did so. I did call at the of
fice ol the paper, and stated all the facts to
them, as stated above.
To-day, in court, after answering a few
direct questions, I endeavored to make an
explanation of the matter, which was ob
jected to by the prosecution and refused by
jnage issuer.
1 be New i ork Herald, which first pro
cured the news from the Judiciary Commit
tee of my having been before them, and
what testimony I bad given, baa spoken of
a secrecy of manner, and an observation "if
something should occur during the night,"
&c, on the part of Wilkes Booth.
1 desire to state al! that did occur at that
interview, and to say, also, that the letter
was given witn no secrecy of manner, nor
was there any remark made about anything
that might occur during the night.
Now for the contents of the letter. It
was written on a sheet of commercial note
paper, covering three pages. The first two
pages were written in the spirit and style of
the Philadelphia letter, and it was only at
the concluding paragraph that anything
was said bearing upon what had transpired;
which was to this effect, and in these words
"For a long time I have devoted my cnor
gies, my time and money to the accomplish
ment of a certain end. I have been disap
pointed. ' The moment has now arrived
when I must change my plans. - Many will
biame me for what I am about to do, but
posterity, I am sure, will lustifv me.
"Men wno love their country better than
gold or life.

From th Xw York Tribaa.)
In any trial of strength between Andrew
Johnson and in people, Andrew Johnson
win be overthrow, ; urtbat he may be sure.
Yet if there is any man utterly blind to the
events of the day and alienated from , the
spirit and purposes of his country, that malt
is the President of the United States. .. He li
as far removed from sympathy with this
nation as is the Khan of Tartary, and further
than the Emperor of Japan. In his own
land he is as a foreigner. lie holds the
highest office of the Union in the interest of
Rebellion, and the whole aiui of his policy
seems to be to substitute the defeat of the
Union for tho victory to which it is entitled.
There is no man who talks more of the Union
than ' he, and none who now does more to
prevent its peaceful reconstruction. It is
his misfortune that he has forgotten the
Rebellion, i Treason, to him, Is neither a
crime nor a mistake ; traitors and Rebels for
feit no rights ) the secession of ten States
givea to the Government no control over
their reorganization ; Congress, representing
the loyal people of twenty-six States is pow
erless to prevent the rule of a minority of
Rebels. Yet, a few years ago Andrew John
son led the band of extreme men who de
manded that treason should be expiated by
death, who proposed the gallows aa the
solution of all National difficulties; and there
have been- no acta as arbitrary aa bis when
singly, and without consultation with Con
gress, he took the whole business of recon
struction on himself. By what miracle these
extremes have been reconciled it is useless
to ask it is enough that Andrew Johnson,
in fhe Presidency of the Unithed States, is
now the worst foe of the people who placed
him there. At peace with tho whole world,
we are at war with him.
We, who put down the Rebellion, have
the right to dictate terms to conquered
rebels. Who denies the right t Not the
rebels. When they laid down their arms to
Grant, and Sherman, and Sheridan, they
laid down everything. Technically, tneir
fropcrty, their lives, were forfeited by tbe
aws they had offended ; but Humanity and
Christianity plead for them, ana tne nouie
argument that mercy was out justice con
vinced their conquerors, they had surren
dcrcd everything, and what did the nation
take f Their lives and liberties it gave, their
property it restored, and all that it demand
ed was submission to the terms which, for
self-protection, it had imposed. . Who de
nied the right to enforce these conditions 1
Andrew Johnson. He inspired with a pas
sion of new resistance a Rebellion that was
prostrate at bur feet. The fruit of his policy
was riot, and murder, and massacre : iresn
hatred between the South and North ! tho
long and costly delay of Reconstruction
Tho nation had resolved that certain things
should be done, and they have been done,
but at what cost ? Every step that we have
taken has been over a Presidential veto
loyalty wherever it has advanced has found
Andrew Johnson barring tbe way ; we have
lought every battle ot the war over again
with him for the enemy, till very weariness
of the struggle has given us new Btrengtu
He has professed his willingness to yield to
the decrees of the people, and again and
again the people have decreed; and repeat
edly be has refused to obey. Nothing can
teach mm, and uoniiress, reassembled to
prevent the nullification of its laws, is again
met by the petty quibbling, the gigantic
obstinacy of tbis faithless servant. His
message goes lurtber than we thought even
he would , dare to go. lie baa hitherto op
posed the laws ; now he would defy them,
If the President should undertake to carry
out his argument he will begin a new re
bellion but, like tbe old Ueoellioc, it will
be crushed.
To the extraordinary argument which Mr.
Johnson opposes to the Supplementary Re
construction act, tbe (senate replied with
contemptuous silence, and the immediate
passage of the bill over his veto, it is almost
unnecessary to answer his evident sophistry,
though Mr. Butler ably exposed in the House
the pretense that the legislation of Congress
in reference to Federal Courts in the South,
and Constitutional Amendments, admitted
the power to place tbe Rebel States under
military rule. It is not with tbe President's
argument, but with the spirit of the mes
sage, that the country will take issue. We
pass by Ins flimsy logic, but we must listen
to his threats. To us the emphatic portions
of the message are that which insults tho
people by declaring that Congress has placed
twelve millions of American citizens under
a rule than which there has been none more
intolerant, and more especially that which
refuses to execute the act. His objections
to tho bill are worth nothing, now that it
baa become the law. He is bound to dis
charge the high duties of his executive office,
to the letter and in the spirit, and we neea
not predict what would be the result, should
this servant of the people persist in affirm
ing "I will net," when the Nation has again,
and we believe for the last time, commanded
"You shall."

UNION PACIFIC
RAILROAD C0MIMNV,
Are now constructing a Railroad from .
OMAHA, NEBRASKA,
westward towards the Pacific Ocean, making with
It connections an unbroken line
ACBOS8 THE CONTINENT.
The Company now offer a limited amount of their
FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
having thirty yean to run, and bearing annual In
terest, payable on tha first days of January and July,
in tha City of New York, at the rate of
SIX PUR CENT. IN GOLD,
AT
iMnety Cent on lite Dollar.
This road was completed from Omaha 3i 5 miles
west on the 1st of January, 18r)7, and it fully equip
ped, and traint are regularly running over it. The '
Company hat now on bund tuffioient iron, ties, etc.,
to finish the remaining portion to the etutvT-n base of
toe Kooky Mountain, ili miles, wine a m ui.Jer con
tract to be done September 1st ot tbi vear, and It it
expected that the entire road will be in running or
der from Omaha to itt westorn connection with the
Central Paoifio, now being rapidly built eastward
from Saoramento, Cel., during 1870.
MEANS OF THE COMPANY.
Estimating the distance to be built by the Union
Paoifio to be 1.56S miles, the United States Govern
ment Issues it Six per cent. Thirty-year Bonds to
tbe Company al the roud is finished ut the average
rate oi aoout us,im per mue, amounting to (H4,2Us,
000. The Company ia also permitted to issue it! own
First Mortgage Bonds to an equal amount, and at the
tame lime, whioh by special Act of Congress are
made a First Mortgage on the entire line, the bonds
of the United State being subordinate to them.
The Government makes a donation of 12. SOU acre
of land to tha mile, amounting to 20,032.1X10 acres,
estimated to.be worth $30,000,000, making tbe total
recouroei, cxoiuiive ol tne capital, ail 8,410,000 ; but
the full value of the landa cannot now be realited.
The authorised Capital block of the Company it
one hundred million dollar of which five millions
have already been paid in, and of which it U not
supposed tbat more than twenty. five million! at most
will he required.
The cost of the road is estimated by competent en
gineer! to be about ona hundred million dollar, ex
clusive of equipment.
PROSPECTS FOR BUSINESS.
The railroad connection between Omaba and the
East is now complete, and the earnings of tbe Union
Paoifio on tho leotioni already finished for the first
two weeks in May were $113,000. These sectional
earnings ni the road progresses will much more than
pay tbe interest on tbe Company's bonds, and the
through business over the only line of railroad be
tween the Atlantio and Pacific must be immense.
Value amd Security of tbe Honda.
The Company respectfully submit, that tbe above
statement of fact! fully demonstrates tbe security o,
their Bonds, and at additional proof they would sug
gest that the Bonds now offered are less than ten mil
lion dollars on (17 mile of read, on which over twen
ty .million dollar! hare already been expended :
on 33d mile of tbii road the earl are now running
and the remaining 187 mile are nearly completed
At the present rate of premium on gold the
bonds ay an annual interest on the present cost of
-. ftlxae Per Cent.,
and it ii believed that on the completion of the road
like the Government Bonda, they will go above pat
The Company intend to tell but a limited amount a
the present low rate, and retain the right to advanc
tbe price at tbeir option.
Subscription! will be received in New York by th
