PROVINCE OF CANADA, ) _ ,

I, John Cameron, being duly or the '
Holy Evangelist, do, on my solemn oati,, depose !
and say: I am about 23 years of a"e. i!
aiu a native of West Canada, am
now, and have beeo for aotns time, a resident 1 .
of Montreal.
During th<s year 18811 went into the so-call
ed Souther";. Confederacy from Canada by .sea,'
>;nc returned here by land about the middle of
February iast. I went on my own private af
tairs, which was to ascertain the prac
ticability of running medicines into the South-;
bin. States. I sympathized strongly with the !
Gonf-ederate cause. I have read what purports
to be a synopsis of testimony said to have been ,
given by a person calling himself Sanford Con-1
over before the military commission at Wash-!
inglun city for the triul of HarrolJ, Atzerott. j
Paine and others, respecting the killing of Pros-!
idem Lincoln, which is published, in the New ;
Yoik papers of the oth of Jane instant ; and, j
likewise, what purports to lie a fall report of ;
said testimony, contained in the same nevvspa- j
pers of the Oth arid 7th of June inst. 1 have !
noticed that in the said testimony it is stated j
that said Sanford Conover passed ia Montreal;
by the name of Jas. Wat*on Wallace. I know |
James Watson Wallace who has made an ai'i-1
davit denying that said testimony is true and f
deposing that some person hath personated him, j
find that said pretended testimony is false and ;
forged. lam satisfied that the Wallace who i
made said affidavit is the same J as. Watson'
Wallace, who gave his evidence before the Hon.
Judge Smith In the Sr. AU uns raiders' trial, a.
he states. He told me iu February, March .aid j
April he gave his evidence ir. the t aiders' c„se.
My attention has been dire-fed to various* aile-!
gat ions contained in the testimony of Sua fori j
Conover, respecting lion. Jacob i'tsomp;
Hon. Clement O. Clay, Geo. N. Sanders, Esq.,
John I'orterffeld, Esq., Gen. Carroll, Doctor j
. Moairoso, A. Fallen, Coaiaiodorc M tgruder- j
Doctor Blackburn, J, W. lto >th. unl others,
and especially to that part relatin r myself. 1
I declare that so far as I know and believe the !
entire statement in.vie by . .id person, who hath '
BO falsely assumed (us I believe; the name of
Concur, i.> an lalteuy untrue and malicious fab-1
ricalion from the beginning to the end, and that
I have no doubt said person was bribed and su
borned to m ;Lc it, or else niade it, under tiireats,
compulsion .uid terror. So far as # i elates to
what is said to have been sworn to by said per
son calling L.iuscU' CoijOver, I have to say that
I cannot truthfully = t a;e anything tending di
rectiy or indirectP; to implicate any of the per
sons named In said deposition, or any others, in i
burning any N. rihtrn cities or towns, or kid-;
capping wf killing any body, or poisoning any
or water works, or spreading any in
fectious or contagious disease. I never heard}
of J. W. Booth till after Mr. Lincoln's death,}
and I do not believe any person in Canada was
concerned in or had any knowledge that Booth
intended anything of the kind.., 1 have heard
at different times several of the Southern gen
tlemen referred to and above named speak on
different topics, but I never heard anything or
saw anything to justify 'elighiett "••spic'Ofi
of aov one of thmn being concerned ia or of
having any knowledge of the burning of cities !
or towns, or poisoning cisterns or reservoirs, or
kidnapping or killing anybody, or introducing!
infectious or contagious diseases, and I never
told Conover nor Wallace, nor any one alse,
that J. was Po get some compensation for aiding,
abetting, or assisting in any such infamous dced
or anything of like character. At different
times in February, March ai-.d the first part of
April last, I heard Confederates, refugees in Can
ada—escaped prisoners of war—allude to the
practicability of expeditious being made upon
towns on the Yankee side-of the lakes, and of
the St. Lawrence river, and I agreed with them
who thought such expeditions feasible, and es
pecially as to an attack an Ogdensburg. I never i
beard Mr. Thompson, Mr. Clay, Mr. Sanders,
Gen. Carroll. Dr. Fallen, Dr. Blackburn, or
Commodore Magruder say anything on such a
subject. It was understood that Mr. Thompson
and Mr. Clay had something to do with the j
raids on Lake Erie and at St. Albans, as agents
of the Confederacy ; but it was notorious that
the others above named, and many other South- ;
erners, however, were opposed to and discoun
tenanced all such raids. I heard several of them
express such sentiments after I returned home, i
I do not conceal that I favored some of the j
raids talked about, and was willing to join him.
1 carried a letter to Mr. Thompson some time
in March, I believe, from a person whose name j
I decline to state, suggesting the destruction of j
ocne water works of a Northern city. After
Mr. Thompson had read the latter, he asked ine j
if I knew the Contents of it, and when I said '
"Yes," be replied, "Is the man mad? is he a
fool ?" and he tabooed the proposition. 1 further j
state that when I went South in September, in •
1864, Dr. bluckburn was not in company with!
toe at any time on the voyage. I never was iu .
Bermuda. I never heard the Doctor say any- j
thing about yellow fever, never was employed j
by him, or any one else, to introduce infectious :
ciothing, as Conover is made to state. That I
was not in Canada in January, 1805, when i
Conover says I was so employed ; and that the
whole statement by Conover in reference to my
self and yelllow fever of Dr. Blackburn, is an
lafainous fabrication and falsehood.
I further state that in February, 1805, an!
acquaintance who claimed to be a Confederate, j
took me into room No. 4, St. Lawrence Hall,
to irttroduce me to an elderly gentleman, who j
he fctated was the counsel from the States for
the St Albans raiders, and, while there, alius- i
ion was made by my acquaintance to raids, aud, j
I believe, to one talked of on Ogdensburg, when }
the gentleman to whom I was introduced ap- ;
peared to get out of temper and u*ed harsh j
language to my acquaintance, swearing quite j
hard and Baying he did not want to hear about >
such matters, aDd that if made known to him
he would inform the Canadian authorities, or j
something to that effect. I recollect afterward
as we retired observing he was quite
not very polite. , j
I have not concealed anything respecting my
self ai anytime, aud I have been approached
bj teveral ptravus to worm something out of
tne to the prejudice of some of the gentlemen 1 I
have mentioned, and have heard of misrepre- j
mentations of what I have said in respect to !
them. Consul Gen. Potter, and Mr. Bernard
Devlin, lawyer for the United Slates in this city, i
have both sought to get me to go to Wasbing
! -• Jn '"ity to give testimony before the mili
■ ary. court martial there, but I refused, because }
1 knew nothing of the slightest relevancy or j
consequence to Ibe case on trial there.
1 have heard that it has been reported that j
'fid go to Washington city, or that I did give
v>me testimony in this city to be used before •:
fbe 'military court at Washington, but both re- j
Ports are unfounded. I suppose some base man
bas gathered a batch of suspicions and conjec
tures and lutnors and reports and hearsay and )
gossip of streets and grogeries and gone off" to
VV ashington and assumed the false name of
Sanford Conover, and made oath to such bud
get and sold such testimony to the prosecutors
in that ca>e. 1 have heard some of the trash
j contained in Sanford Conover's testimony in:
circulation here, soma of which, as well as pro- j
jects of raids and the like. I was satisfied was j
manufactured and put affoat by Yankee detec
tives to make their employees think they were ;
doing great things, J. CAMERON, Jr. j

HEMAKK.ABLE CORE OF STIFF KNEE BY
AL[.COCK "S POROUS PLAoI FRi.—How nianj j
persons, from stepping on a piece cf orane peel, .
have been lamed for life. A case which might have •
; i®> at tkt® i._® juijt been brought *o our r.o- I
j tice. A gentleman, Rom placing tue heei of his !
boot on apiece otorange peel, was suddenly thrown j
down, and violently sprained Ids i nee. 'la was six !
months confined to the house, though he had the •
best medical advice. As a last resort a very eini- j
nent physician was called in to see if anything more ;
cauld be done. Alter examination he said, "My i
opinion is your knee will never ba bent again."— j
He recommended that the v. hole leg and knee should
1 he er.cased in a plaster cf Par's bandage, which j
would accelerate the peirnanent stiffening of thai
1 knee, and said, "the coonerit was done the better." j
; But the patient, before trying this applicalicn and j
having a stiff knee for life, enveloped it in our po- j
rous i la-teis, and in less than two months his knee i
was perfectly cured.
