There was considerable friction in the

The Attempt to Cnplnrc President Lincoln.
Mr. 0 Irving Ditty, of llaltlmore, nn cx-
Cunlfdcrato officer, who Is now n prominent
Republican, nnd u( whom It wns said in nn
edltorl d In a recent number of 77ie Vms
that ho "commanded tho rebel cavalry com
pany which was ilitallcd to capture Mr. Lin
coln In pursuance of tho first plot arranged
by Wilkes lboth and John IL furralt,"
sends us a communication for tho purpose of
correcting nil) wrong inference that might
bo drawn trom Ibis statement nf a historical
fact. Mr. Ditty knew nothing nf Wilkes
lloothor John II, Surrntt, nnd nt the time
ho was encaged In the expedition n hick had
for Its object tho capture of President Lin
coln, bo was under the orders nf General
ISradloy T. Johnson, commander of tho 1st
fgltne'it of Maryland cavalry (confederate)
e learned nfter the war of the purpose ot
e expedition, but ns far ns ho has nny in
formation tho plan was arranged by General
Johnson nnd notby Wilkes Iloolh and John
. fjurratt. Tho assassination of the Prcsi-
cnt was not contemplated, and It was mere
ntendid to make hlni a prisoner of war
Hiid carry him to Richmond. Mr. Ditty
res this account of the expedition:
"My regiment, 1st Maryland Cavalry.com
manded by Colonel, afterwards General Itrnd
ley T. Johnson, of this city, In June, 1S01,
as lying near Richmond, together witli n
large force of other cavalry, when wo were
ordeiel north, with several days' rations. I
as nullo unwell nt tho outset, grew worse,
nnd on the first night nf the maroli was hurt
bv a horse. I applied for a short sick leave,
heli General Johnon, stating that very
mpnlnnt movements were on foot which he
could not disclose, but In which I would re-
ret not to share, urged me to remain with
tho command. I did so. A few days alter
ant wo met General Sheridan at Trevillian
Station, and fought him for three day, when
e returned to Richmond and wc marched
ti Washington and Point Lookout in Low
er Maryland, where there wns a large num-
er of Con federate prisoners, whom we in-
ended to lelease. I heard nothing more,
except vague rumors, ot the movement to
which General Johnson referred until after
the war clo-ed, when I learned that General
Johnson, ho( Jloolli, had planned the cap
tore ot Mr. Lincoln at the Soldiers' Home,
near Washington, whero ho was then
nendini: the summer. This plan would
doubtless have been executed, or attempted,
had not General Karly ordered General
Johnson to cover his rear, while he (Early)
advanced on General Hunter at Lynch-
burrr."
I lie only matter in dispute is wnetner
Wilkes Iiooth and John II. Surratt were
irivy to tho plan of the capture ot President
Lincoln which Geueral Johnson attempted
to carry out, or whether the plot Inwhicli
they wrro engaged was to be executed by
other nirmcies. At the trial of the assassin
it was clearly proven that Wilkes llioth
and Joint II Surratt were engaged in a con
(piracy to capture Mr. Lincoln while he
was sojourning nt 'he Soldiers Home, nnd
John li. Surratt, when he was subsequently
tried for his connection with the as'nssina
tion plot, c-cape I punishment, because th
evidence against him seemed to relate to the
plot to capture Mr. Lincoln rather than tin
plot to assassinate him. Tho statute of linv
Rations savi d him from being tried ns a;

the attempt a mau applied to a watchmako;
and optician at Moscow for a first class dec
trie apparatus. They were rather expensivi
and the man tillered in exchange a gold
watch worth X70. The bargain was agreed
to and tliu man handed over the watch, gav
alictiiious name and took away the appara
tus. When the outrage occurred it
ascertained that this liouse had been lot am
teamed by a man and a woman with
coachman and their horses, On the evening
of tbe crime the ctrriage stood equipped be
fore the house and tne coachman in front
of it Immediately after tne explosion th
man, the woman and tho coachman went off
at u uuick trot and they were not been
acaiu.
The proprietor who had let the houso to
them had beeen paid beforehand and did not
know them. The electrical instruments
which were recognized by the tradesman
who had sold them, were seized, but lie had
since disposed of the watch and no trace of
it was to be found. All the jewelers nnd
watchmakers of .Moscow nere put on thi
lookout." A few daysalterivards one of litem
informed tho police that the present posses
sor of the watch wished to sell it. It was
seized, b.it no Moscow watchmaker remem
bered bavin.; sold it. The police had it ex
amined Iroui town to town to St. Petersburg
where it was recognized by a watchmaker,
who stated that be had sold it to n St. Pe
tersburg lady for 800 roubles. This lady
declared she had bought and given It to a
certain llartman, brother or relative of a
person perfectly well known at Bt. Peters
burg, At the same time the lady handed to
the police a photograph of the mau, lhe
photograph was recognized by the man who
had sold the electrical apparatus and by the
proprietor who had let tho houss to him.
The police set out on tills scent, and soon
came to the conclusion that the presumed

allowed In enter. The anni of tho threo

inauy of the members nsscrt that it is an in
sult to a regiment wltoo loyalty to the State

the act is that the arms of tho regiment be-

not intended as any reflection upon the

the wholo thing is due to the unfounded

Placards have been posted in prominent
places about the city warning the employers
of Chinese to desist Iroui that practice, and
vaguely hinting at a terrible consequent in
the event of a refusal. A pointed reference
is also made to the condition of tho unem

crn the Island of Hirataria, liut there the
si iiile failed, Sancho Fanzt had resigned
and departed upon his good dapple. Hayes
would never resign. Titles obtained by
fraud were never surrendered, He then re
ferred to the fact that nearly every man
who had taken an active part in counting
tho Slate of Florida fcr Hayes had been
supplied with a public office a fine bou
quet of civil scrvico reform fiom the land
of floers. And then there was iioulstann,
where the tree ot civil service reform had
taken deep root, mid where Hayes bad
shown loan admiring world how he could
ignore party and appoint no one to offiie
from personal motives. He had shown this
by the appointment of Wells, Anderson and
Kenner, members of the famous Reluming
Hoard.
Mr. House had read at the clerk's desk
the letter.addressed to the.President by Cas
anave, another member of the Returning
Hoard, a letter, the like of which, he said,
had never been nddressed to nn American

found himself so environed by scoundrels,

The fate of the nation depends upon tho

If we would sustain the great principles of
our party )n national affairs, we must use our
utmost efforts to keep up those principles in

blow nt Democratic success in tho national
elections. A houso divided ngilnst itself
cannot stand.
There Is lust one question for our content

then let us follow the dictates of unscrupu

or prejudices to gratify; let us become the
dupes of Republican leaders, whose only
objeot is to break our ranks and reservo for

bring to-gether all opponents of legal
centralization its expressed in the decision,
and all opponent: to centralization as em
bodied in the third term lor Grant. The
lines can be more clearly drawn than be

"Nothing, in my judgment, could have

them to a humiliating and degrading de

Sorrow for the dead.
We can not but weep for the dead. 1'ven
when every feellug, when our reason, warn
us that the transition to them from life to
immoitality is full oi happiness, that they
have welcomed the voice of the angel of
death as the harbinger of peace, the herald
of joy. We weep over the grave, even when
we know it is the bed of rest for which the
weary sufferer longed, as the way worn
traveler for his home. When compelled to
look as it were, for the chambers of rejoicing
upon the dismal, dark abode of the dead,
our hearts our chilled as it stands in relation
to ourselves, the happy, the rich, the loved,
we forget to contemplate it in relation to the
wretched, tin poor, the desolate, who are
gone to occupy it. Lven In the sorrow for
the dead our tears are stained by the sel
fishness that makes half our mortality,
the shadow of death falls upou ourselves,
and after the first bitter paug, the convic
tion that something we loved i gone be
yond Ihe voice of our affection, we begiti to
sorrow, partly for that we too must die. If
the recollection of a duty or a kindness can
give us a foretaste of the charity that may
be felt in heaven, it is when the object on
whom it has been conferred has passed the
precincts of the tomb, To be conscious that
we have cheered the heart that has ceased
to beat is one of tho first, best consolations
that softens our grief for "the dead we have
buried out of our sight,"
Graduating System.
Among tho obstacles which prevent tho
perfection of our common school system,
nre the nbsence from the schools nt many
children who should be upon tbe rolls, the
irregular attendance of many who nre en
rolled, and the lack of hearty co-operation
with the teajher on the part of the parents.
It tn liters little how intelligent and capable
the teacher may be, if the children of a giv
en district do not attend tho schools, nnd at
tend regularly, or if tho parents do not as
sist tbe teacher in the education of their
children. The subject of compulsory at
tendance has been tried in some countries,
but lias nut yet become popular among the
people ol the United States. Other inenns
have been tried with more or less efficiency
but no method has yet been put into gen
eral practice to make the schools so attract
ive as to induce universal attendance, nnd a
general desire to receive the full benefit of
nur common school system. A grand step
in this direction, however, was made in the
adjoining State of West Virginia, by the
neighboring county of Monongnhalia, while
under tho superintendency of Alexander L,
Wade.who'proposed and succeeded in adopt
itig for that county a graduating system for
the common schools. He reasoned that as
colleges, seminaries and academies and even
high schools had graduating systems which
wero universally acknowledged to be benefi
cial, that tho plan might be of practical
utility for the common schools nf the coun
ty. It would produce nn incrensed interest
un the part of both parents and pupils, un
increased interest meant better and more
regular attendance, more combined and har
monious effort, and vastly more power to
learn. The branches required to be taught
in the common schools are comprised in a
regular course of study which the pupils are
desired to adopt voluntarily, and complete
within a given time, undergoing regular pub
lie examinations in the studies of each class
and graduatiur when the course is complet
ed, n diploma being awarded to all who
pass the examinations creditably. A cata
logue is published giving the names of the
schools, the teachers and the graduates,
and undergraduates, or those in classes not
yet having completed the course. Ihe nura
her of chiiden in a given district entitled to
attend the school is noted. The number in
actual attendance given, as well as the aver
age and per cent, of attendance, also th
number of pupils studying each branch
Tho public examinations are found to ex
cite an interest among the people of the dis
trict, and the parent instead of being an op
ponent of the teacher and a fault-finder, is
desirous of 6ceing his children come off with
honor and credit and co-operates with the
teacher to insure success. A banner is
awarded to that school having the largest
percent of attendance, and it is surprising
to see how eager the pupils themselves be
come iu securing the "honor'' for their re
spective schools, All the children are hunt
ed up and induced to como to school. As
sistance is rendered to those too poor to
purchase books, nnd nil become co-worlters
for a definite object ami for the general
good, It is impossible in a newspaper arti
clo to give auythlng like n complete outline
of the system, but it 1 sufficient to state
that the graduating system works well in
West Virginia, is endorsed by the leading
schoolmen of the State, and it might be in
troduced with profitable results lu a large
majority of the counties In our own Com
monwealth. GVmm of Liberty,
