NEGRO•SUFFBAGE.—The bill giving
negroes the right to vote in the Dis•
trict of Columbia passed the U. S.
House of Representatives on Thursday
last by.a vole of 116 yeas to 54 nays.
The bill is as follows:
Be if enacted by the Senate and House
of Representatives of the United States
of America, in Congress' assembled,
That from all laws and parts of laws
prescribing tbo qualifications of elec
tors for any office in the District of
Columbia, the word 'white" be and
the same is hereby stricken out, • and
?hat•ll , pm and after the passage of this
act no person shall be disqualified from
voting at any election held in the said
District on account of color.
Section 2. And be it further enacted,
That all acts of Congress and all laws
of the State of Maryland in force in
said District, and all ordinances of the
cities of Washington and Georgetown,
inconsistent with the provision of this
act, are hereby repealed and annulled.
This bill vas passed without looking
to any conditions such asintelligence
or character, but it is thought that be
fore it . passes the Senate it will be so
modified as to embrace these provis
ions. It may be, also, that it is gotten
up as an experiment, so as to test the
expediency of general suffrage. Some
Washington letter writers seem to
think that . President Johnson will
veto the bill if itpasses the Senate.
465-Regarding the decisions of At
torney General Speed as to the disposi
tion of Jefferson Davis, as final, the
question:new raised is, when will the
pericidarriVe when it will be justifia
ble to punish him, or even give him a
trial for his life ? It will not be safe
to let. Jeff. go, even under a test oath
and an extraordinary bail, as it might
cost us another war, of words at least,
to recover him; and therefore his in:
evitable doom is to remain under lock
and key in a redoubtable fortress. We
have no doubt Jeff. waits a speedy re
construction and the unmistakable re
turn of peace, so that his present, very
unpleasant condition may come to a
definite end.

An Important Decision,
Judge King yestorday — Glivered
most important decision in the court
Of quarter sessions of this county, in
trio case of Rowe vs. Stenger. Mr.
Stenger was returned as elected to the
office of District Attorney last Fall, and
Col. Rowe contested the election on
the ground that the majority of Mr.
Stenger was made up of votes cast by
men, i , llO Were &from sorters the draft
or from the military service; and are
disfranchised by the act of Congress.
Judge King held that the penalty
of forfeiture Of citizenship could not be
inflicted without duo process of law,
and that deserters can be disfranchised
only upon conviction of the offence by
some competent tribunal. As the act
of Congress makes no provision for the
judicial iscertainment and conviction
of the crimOT and the laws of the State
make no such Lost of the qualification
of,voters, the votes of such men must
be accepted. In the decision be does
not raise the question of the power of
Congress to impose a penalty effecting
the right of suffrage in a State, and lie
expressly waives the issue raised as to
whether or not the act of Congress is
an 'ex post facto law, inisimuch as the
point decided is conclusive of the case.
Such a decision coming from a judi
cial officer second to none in 'the State
In high' legal attainments, and emi
nent for his devotion to the loyal
cause, presents the question of the dis•
franchisement of deserters as one yet
to be perfected by the legislature if it
is to bo enforced at all. It is an issue
of too much magnitude to be left in
doubt, and we hope to see this case
reviewed by the court of last resort in
the State. But by the time it will
reach that court, the legislature will
'have adjourned and if the decision of
our court should be sustained, we shall
have another year . of doubt and defi
ante of the law of Congress by the
only party that' can hope to profit by
the votes of those who deserted their
country's cause in the day of peril-
Just as is the penalty of the act of
Congress, its enforcement must have
all the sanctity and ceremony of law,
and to this question the attention of
the legislature should be deliberately,
wisely .and promptly directed. We
must either have such enactments as
will ensure uniform enforcement, or
the punishment of desertion must be
abandoned. The general government
has abandoned it, and it is.for the
States to declare
. by their legislation
whether they will do likewise.

SUCCESS OF TIM PREr=IDENT'S POLICY'
—Col. Forney writes to the PhiWeis
phitt Press from Washington •
"Gradually, yet surely, the difficul
ties in the way of restoration are sub
siding, and that which was believed to
be among the probabilities, viz: a dif
ference between the prominent and
controlling intellects of the National
Union organization. may now, I think,
be wholly discarded. Theta is, in fact,
so little to quarrel about, thqt ha will
bo a factious and daring partisan in
deed, who attempts to make toad
against those necessities which demand
peace on the basis of something like
the President's policy. It does not
seem to be doubted that the question
of suffrage will be adjusted with the
consent of nearly all parties, by an
amendment - to the National Constitu
tion, making voters instead or nuin
bers the foundation ef representation
in Congress. What, after these, re
mains for division and dispute ?"
AN INSULT ----SeOHLOP Su inner on the
evening of the 13th received a box
containing the finger of a negro, ac
companied with the following note:
"You" old son of a b—h, I send you a
piece of ono of your friends, and f.f that
hill of yours passes, I will have a piece
of von. A UNION MAN."
The finger, which had evidently
boon in, alcohol for some time, was
done up in a. round box, addressed in
a beautiful hand and left on the door
stop of Senator Sumner's boarding
house, where it was found by a servant
girl. The note was in a boyish.hand
and in several instances words of it
misspellbd.
J. Suxtta'rT.-IVo have been furnished
with the following statement, the wri,
ter of which says he has the best of
reasons for believing in the reliability
of what is here affirmed :
John Surrhtt was arrested Jn Texas,
attempting to make his way into ilex.
ice, during the month of June, 1805.
Ile was placed in charge of Captain
Smith mid three Privates, of .the 4th
United States Artillery. The move
ments of the party were slow, and
every dfrort was made to keep the
identity of, the prisoner a secret. On
'arriving at Terre Haute, Ind., the par•
tk,weire compelled to lay over,on ac
count of a break on the Terre Haute
and Richmond Railroad, and for twe
days occupied rooms at the Terre
House: Before arriving at Washing

ratt vas recognize& by acquaintances
(fir proof of which see despatches from
Washington :and Baltimore, about

was to be paid for his capture.

Execution of artha Grin der
Mrs, Grinder makes full Confession,
The execetiOn` Of Martha Grinder,
the peisoner,took . place at Pittsburg, on
Friday. She he'd been Convicted of the .
murdet , of Mrs.!:Cliruthers h in July and
August last. The administration of
the: poison -to -, 4,he - victim eXtended
through a period 'of several weeks,
during which tilbe• 1 -the accused was
unremittj - bg . id her attentions to the
sufferer wind exhibited-so Much appar
ent kintleessland4Tinmithy as tu com
pletely disarm suspicion.
After the - death ot:the person, whom
she with her own futtids,destroyed,
none were more careful in the prepa
rations for the funeral than the mur
deress herself. Mrs. Grinder, during
the progress of her trial, evinced the
greatest coolness,
.giving appearance
rather of a spectator than that of the
felon. When the jurors were called,
she instructed her lawyers as to which
of them should be challenged, and fre
quently suggested to her counsel ques
Lions to be asked the witnesses.
The most important witness was
the husband of the deceased—James
S. Caruthers. Ho testified that his
wile,. Mary Caroline Caruthers, died
on the Ist otAugust, 1865. The body
was buried, but was exhumed the 30th
of August. His wife took sick on the
evening of the 37th of June last She
wits affected hY vomiting, purging.
affection in her,throat, burning sensa—
tion in the stomach, pain in the brea s t
and• dizzinesS; nausea, etc. Mrs. Grin.
der, who
. lived nest door, on Gray's
alley, Allegheny City, was among the
foremost in her attentions to the dying
woman. The evidence of Mr. Caruth
ers showed that immediately after
partaliing of the food sent by Mrs.
Grinder, himself, and whoever else
partook, were affected in the same
manner as his wife at the time of her
first taking sick. The poisoning con
tinuing, the physici:ut became alarm—
ed, and therefore advised Mr. and Mrs.
Caruthers to leave, for a time, their
residence, and go to the country
They did so, and while away both
rapidly recovered; their health remain
ing good during the whole time they
were absent. Upon their way home,
however, the attentions of Mrs. Grind.
cr recommenced, and again the same
strange sickness manifested itself. The
mother of thit deceased was sent fur,
as even at this time it was thought
that her • daughter could 1 - I•3t recover.
She arrived on the 281,11 of July, and,
partaking of the food sent by Mrs.
Grinder, was- taken sick, the same
symptoms manifesting themselves as
in the case ()flier (languor and son-in •
law. The evidence of Mr. Caruthers
was supported •by that of office wit
nesses. There was also evidence show
Mg that Mrs. Grinder had poisoned
the family of Mrs. Marguerite Smith,
who lived next door to Mrs. Caruthers,
by a bowl of sour. The family was
composed of the mother and six chit.
dren, all of whom but one 'cat of' the
soup, and bore, as before, all who eat
were immediately taken sick, one, a
child, dying. Evidence was also pro—
duced showing that a brother of Mrs.
Grinder's 'ha baud had died from the
effects of poison, at the house of the
accused, and that a Miss Buchanan bad
died timid or similar circa instances, after
receiving the attentions of Mrs. Grind•
er. She was however tried only for'
the murder of Mrs. Caruthers.
=EI
At precisely fitseen minutes past
one o'clock, Sheriff Stewart, accompa
nied by Deputy Sheriff Cluley, pro.
ceedod to the cell of thekloomed wo
omit, and on ebtering Mrs. Grinder
remarked,.
"Are you coming for me."
The Sheriff replied "Yei, Mrs. Grind•
or." Silo calmly arose and said, -.Te
stis Ch l'iSt is coming for me too." The
Sheriff the pinioned her arms, and the
funeral procession moved slowly down
stairs, the Sheriff in advance, followed
by the condemned, and supported on
her right by the Reverend ['filmes
and on the left, by Reversed Sinsa
baugh. Followlng were Doetnr A. G.
McCandleSs,, Thomas M. Marshall,
Esq, and Deputy Sheriff Cluley. The
procession theirjnoved slowly to the
prison yard, and Mrs. Grinder, with a
firm step, motiiii!iSd to Che'platforth of
the dread instrument of death, and
took a seat in a chair on the trap door.
After a short Kaye': by Rev. Flolmes,
'that gentleman ,laidher farewell, when
she requested hint to stay by her. She
then bid farewell to Mr. Sinsabaugh,
Marsfiall; Dr. M'Candless and De
puty Cluley. • The Sheriff advanced
and requested her to arise, and bind
ing her clothing about her feet, bid her
a final good by, to which she replied :
"I am going to Reaven and hope to
moot you there." Re then adjusted
the rope, placed the Cap in its place,
and descending the Bcatud, sprun g
the trigger, and at twenty minutes
past one the,trap fell and the soul or
Mrs. Grinder wits launched into eter
nity.
After the trap Sell, the following
confession was furnished to the mew.
