President Lincoln, and whose mother
was hung by reason of complicity in the
"conspiracy, has written a lecture deta&
ing his with the crime, which
be delivered at Rockville, Md., and
which is announced for Baltimore and
other places. He admits that he was in
the Rebel service as a spy, passing be

was in the conspiracy to abduct the
President, but denies all knowledge of
the assassination. Throughout his lec

We are glad to notice that the Press

fitting terms the shamelessness of Sur

his mother to the gallows: Even the
New York World—whose authority we
do not often quote-calls him a "wretch,"
who cowardly skulked in Canada and
sacrificed his mother's life, when, by his
own showing, if he is to be believed, his
testimony could have proven her inno
cence: Referring to Surratt's plea for
this lecturing business—that he is poor,
and wants to raise money—the World
remarks:
A convicted thief once put in to his
judge a plea of the same sort as Surratt's.
"Well) your Honor, I must live;" to
whom clear-beaded Jurist responded, "I
see no necessity for that," It does not seem
even to have ouccurred to Surratt that be
tween dying and living by such means as
he proposes to himself the former is clearly
preferable. Of the two alternatives, let us
commend suicide to him as being much
more creditable to him and immeasurably
More edifying to his fellow-citizens. Ju
das Iscariot had the grace to hang himself,
even after he had got his money. We see
no reason why Surratt, who has not got
his money, which he has made himself an
abomination for, should not emulate his
example.

THE ATLANTIC CABLES. —h appears
now that we may have to be - content for
some time to come with the limited and

Europe afforded by the French cable,
which has , been the only one working for
nearly two weeks past. The injury to the
English cables, laid from Heart's Content,
.blewfounded, to Valentia Bay, Ireland, is
serious, and the repairs will be difficult,
They traverse what is called the sub
marine plateau, a comparatively level
ridge from 1,890 to 2,Q00 feet below the
surface of the Atlantic, extending north
east and southwest. It is conjectured
that the cables have been broken by
abrasion on the rocks, and the only means
of reuniting them is by separately grap
pling for each end and buoying them on
the 'surface of the watdr while they can be
spliced. To do this requires smooth
water, such as is rare at this season of the

THE BREVITY OF LIFE.
"'Tie not for man to trifle, We &brief,
Our age is but the falling of a leaf.
We have no time to sport away the hours,
All must he earnest in a world like ours.
Not many lives, but one have tie,
How sacred should that one be."
And still how many fritter away their lives, un
able to fill any useful purpose, because some ling
ering disease unfits them for It, and they neglect
or refuse to use the remedies within their reach.
God In his wonderful arrangement of nature has
provided an antidote for all the Ws that human
flesh is heir to, and by the aid of science the med
icinal virtues of certain herbs, roots and harks
have been combined and the result is known all
over the civilized world as DLISHLEWS HERB
BITTERS. It thoroughly purifies the blood, in
vigorates the nervous fibres, elevates the stand
ard of all the vital forms, and sustains a most
healthful tone of the entire human organization.
