BODIES OF THE CONSPIRATORS DISINTERRED-
Hmt1 of Bootb'a Borljr Thi Secret
History of Its Burial.
()n Tnesday Inst, In accordance with orders
received at the Washington Arsenal by General
Itamsy, Commandant of the pout, from Gene
ral Urant, Secretary of War, the bodies of the
aiai-lnatlon coDBlralors, a also the body ol
Henry Wire, the Andersonvllle Jailor, were re
moved from their graves and relnterred In an
other portion of the grounds, xhls removal
was rendered necessary In consequence of the
urojected Improvement of the Arsenal Orouuds;
the contractor for the removal of the old pen l
tentlnry bulldlDK, Mr. J. T. Btockbrldge, being
abont to commence work.
It will be remembered that after the execn
Hon of Mrs. Hnrratt. Lewis Payne. David K.
Harold and George A. Atzeiott, which took
place on the 8th of July. im. the bodies were
Weredand placed In while pine boxes, and
were immediately interred In graves Jiist south
f the" caflold. near the east wall of the enclo
se Mrs Anrrait being placed In the north
5ve and the others lu the order lu whlcli they
ffi'on "be scaffold. (Subsequently a plain
white headboard whs placed at each of the
craves on which the names of the parties were
nalnled In black loiters. Afterwards some posts
were planted, and a alight fence was erected
around the graves, xue oouy ui Jieury wjrz.
im5, was also taken and burled Just south of the
crave of Atzerott.
The body of J. Wilkes Booth, the principal
of the cousplrators, who was killed in the at
tempt to capture him at Garrett's farm, neur
l'ort Roval, on the Huppahannook river, ou
the 2fltn of April, 1H65, whs buried in what was
known as the wareroom of the Penitentiary
building (that portion between the part used
as a dwelling by the Warden, and the prison
fToper), and In this connection it seems to be
he proper time now to give the following par
ticulars, heretofore nnpuulished.concernlug tlio
secret Interment of the remains: The body of
Booth, with Harold and the captors Lieutenant-Colonel
Conser, Lieutenant L. U. Baker,
.Lieutenant K. P. louglierty, and a detachment
f the 18'h New York Cavalry arrived at the
Navy Yard at half-past 2 o'clock on the morn
ing of the 27th of April, when the body of J,
Wilkes Booth was placed ou the monitor Mou
tauk, on which others charged with being
concerned in the conspiracy were contlned,
and Harold was assigned to quarters
on board. No visitors weie allowed on board
the monitors, but during the day large num
bers of persons visited the yard and saw the
body from the wharf. It being laid on a car
penter's bench on board the monitor placed
near the turret of the vessel. Burgeon-General
Barnes, with Burgeon Todd, of the monitor,
and one or two army surgeons, made a post
mortem examination of the body and removed
two of the vertebne, between which the ball
which caused bis death had passed. We can
positively assert that this was the only portion
ot the body removed, and thut the various re
ports put In circulation at the time, that his
head was taken off, his heart taken out, etc.,
were entirely unfounded. A pine box bad been
made previously, in which to bury the remains,
but this was not used, and about two o'clock
on the day of Us arrival up river, the hoiiy was
wrapped In a grey army blanket, placed In
boat, in which was on officer of the moni
tor with four sailors, General Ha Iter, and two
detective. The boat proceeded down stream,
and finally stopped at the lower Ar.-enal wharf,
on wbicti the body was placed; a'ter which the
boat returned to the monitor, having General
ituker and his assistants in the Arsenal
.-rounds. Some few persons employed at the
Arsenal saw the body lying there during the
evening, but a ieperf ueiDg put out that it was
the body or a soldier who hnd been drowned,
but little attention was paid to it. Two men,
Who had occasion to remove the body, having
got some bioou on inuir uauus, uame
r,ett,S wa- "ooii'8' b"d"
but being 8" motl to fjulelly wash tne
blood Off, and kfir'-p tuuir mourns shut, they did
so, bud but few persons became aware that the
body was other than that of a drowned soldier,
as nad been reported. The body remained on
the wharf until after uighfall. when prepara
tions were made lor the liiterrncut,. Secretary
Stanton, General Dyer. Cliiet of Ordnance, and
Colonel Bouton, commandant of the post,
Were on the ground, an well as General Baker
TMid his detectives. Three men of the laborers,
gang were sent for, and they were first directed
to dig a grave in one of ttie Penitentiary cells;
but nfter taking up the brick flooring they
came to the gianite foundation laid in cement,
aDd they pronounced the work impracticable.
A spot was then selected iu the waruroom, livo
or six feet south of the iron door opening into
the pilson from the Warden's Department, atid
they were directed to did the grave to the depth
of about ten feet. Tne jtrave being ready, the
body, enclosed in an ammunition box (arms
case), was brought In by four of t he ordnance
men in charge, of a sergeant, lowered Into the
grave, and it was filled, the brick flooring being
mostly replaced, and the surplus earth re
moved to another portion of the room. The
burial having been accomplished, the windows
were boarded up, and the door made secure
Secretary Stanton taking the key with him.
This key was kept at the War Department
until a few weeks ugo, when It was returned to
the Arsenal officers.
On the receipt of the order for the removal of
tne bodies (including nooinsj ou xuesuay, in
borerR were at once set to work and soou ac
comnlished the work, taking them from the
craves before mentioned and carrying them
tn No. 1 warehouse, where a trench was dug a
few feet from the north wall. In this trenoh the
bodies were placed, and as secresy had been
enjoined, but few persons were awitre that the
removal had been made. Notwithstanding
the length of time that the bodies have been
buried, the boxes containing them were so
heavy and the odor from them so offensive as
to Indicate that decomposition had taken
-place .very slowly, a fact due, probably, to
the nature of the soil. It would seem from
this action that the Government does not
Intend to give up the bodies to the relatives.
The bodies of Booth, Payne, Herold. Atze
rott, Wlrz, and Mrs. Surratt now rest in a com
mon grave, where their ashes will be mingled.

A SAD AFFAIR.
A Gentleman Jnmpi from the Third
story Window of the Mercy Hospital
and Dies from the Effects of Ilia In
juries. Mr. A. A. Taylor, brotlier-tn law of Miss Ida
Vernon, who was to play an engagement at the
Opera Houpe this week, jumped from n third
story window ol the Mercy Hospital Monday
afternoon, and yesterday moniintr, about 1
o'clock, died from the eilccts of the injuries he
received. It appears that he came from New
York city with Miss Vernon, and while on the
way here was takeu periously ill with couues
tion of the brain. He was t;iken to the St.
Charles Hotel, and, as he did not eet better.lt
was thought advisable to remove him to the
Mercy Hospital, and he was taken there on
Monday morning. In the evening, about G
o'clork, while delirious, and during the absence
of his attendant, he jumped from a third-story
window of tbe hospital and fractured his right
thigh; besides receiving luternal injuries, lie
was picked up In an insensible condition, nnd
died at 1 o'clock vesterdav rnomini.'. Miss
Vernon returned to New York lut evening with
the remains of the unfortuuate mnn. Mr.
Taylor resides 1n New York citv. where he left
ills wile a lew dajs airo. Pittsburg Chronicle, 2d.
The New Submarine Telegraph,
The new submnriue cable proposed to be laid
from Ftauce to the United States will extend
from Brest to Ht. Pierre Miqueion, following a
-plateau which has becu sounded very carefully.
"From St. Pierre Jliquelon, the cable, says the
'Jimts In order to renh New York, will follow

FIRE AND BURGLAR PROOF SAFES
YHE TRIAL OF
FIK12 - PIIOOF 8AFESt
ClIALLEXUE ACCEPTED.
Mr. M. C. Sadler, Agent of LUlle's Safes la
this city, baving pnlillshed In the city papers
cn offer to bnrn In a ttsi fire, on the Tid Instant,
one of LUlie's Chilled Iron Hafos with one of
our make, of like blze and thickness, contain
ing Sanborn's Steam Improvement, tbe test to
be "fairly made," we hereby inform lilm and
the public that we accept the challenge, tbe de
tails of the trial to be as follows:
1. The committee to direct the trial and report
the result to be chosen, three members by each
party and another by these six.
2. The Safes to be of the size burned at Norrls
town, and to be made in the usual way of their
respective manufacturers, with walls six inches
in thickness from inside to outside.
3. The trial to be ma le in an open space, the
safes standing the thickness of one brlnd above
the ground, and the lire made with dry wood
placed around the safes, and as hot as either
party may desire aud to be continued nntl
one or tbe others fehhall full; the committee
to see that the wood Is equally distributed and
the safes exposed alike to the fire; the party
whose pafe falls first to pay tbe whole expense
of the trial, and the winning; party to have the
safes after they are burned.
We will add that we are willing and ready to
go into a trial of Safes with Messrs. Marvin &
Co., Farrel, Herring & Co., and any other par
ties, on the same conditions, and desire the
business men of Philadelphia to be present
and see for themselves that the test is fairly
made.
As to the accusation of Mr. Sadler, "that we
have conspired to cheat, deceive, and humbug
the community," we consider the source
whence it came, and regard it unworthy of
notice; and doubtless the officers of the Inter
state Fair, and the honorable gentlemen of the
committee who superintended the trial at Nor
ristown, who are also Included In the accusa
tion, will consider it in the same light.
We have no desire to deceive tbe community,
nor to injure any man's business; but no man's
business has any claim to stand in the way of
the public good. This is not merely a personal
matter between safe-makers. The publlo, who
have valuables to preserve, have a rigid to know
what safes are reliable, and what ones will fait
in any severe exposure.
