we were at length safe. But the wily savage, fearful that one might escape if he trusted to his lance, had only resigned it for a more effective weapon. Rapidly assuming his bow, he fitted an arrow to the spring, and riding at full speed to within a dozen yards, he drew the weapon along his right thigh, and let fly the missile with a short quick cry, and a force that would have' driven it through the bosses of a Grecian buckler.

She was dead, but her last thought was one of joy, that, by the sacrifice of her life, I should behold my home once more. With the consciousness that all was over, a total forgetfulness of ev. erytbing but her fatal devotion came over me. I remained stupified, with her form resting in my arms, gazing intently on the features of the mur dered girl. How long it may have been I know not; but a deep glut teral at length startled me.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 19, 1805 (47- The President has issued his proclamation appointing Judge Wm. Marvin Provisional Governor for Florida. The form of his proclama tion is precisely the same as that us ed in the appointmetit of the other provisional governors for the South ern States and for similar, purposes. Mir CONSCIENCE MAKES —Stanton, Secretary of War, the man who pressed on the trial and convic tion of Mrs. Surratt, and Holt, Judge Advocate,- his instrument in the bloody deed, were both so conscience stricken on the day of execution that they looked themselves up and re fused to see, or be seen by, any one. After the execution application was made by the friends of Mrs. Surratt for her body to give it Christian bur ial. Being rsfused admission, a note was sent to Stanton with the request. He referred it to Holt,. who also be ing locked up, it was, by him referred back to the Secretary of War, and by the 'Secretary back to Holt, and by Holt again to the' Secretary of War, and by the Secretary of War back again to Holt, who at last sent the following verbal message to Mr. Ai ken, through one of his clerks, a Mr. Wright. "Request will be considered, and at a proper time may be complied with, but not at'present." Let the people imagine these two monsters looked up in their closets, guarded by bayonets, yet shaking in their boots, not because of anything they had to fearfrom men, but afraid of the devil, who, through their con sciences, was warning them that he considered them certain of being his, not only on account of the black deed they were allowing to be committed on that 'day, but of many others near- ly as damning previously perpetrated. Whew ! whew ! but Stanton and Holt must have been oppressed that day from the heat and smell of brim stone, not to talk of the invisible company in black with tail and hoofs! Whew I Ng.

New York, were destroyed By fire on Thursday afternoon. Nothing but the glass engine in the museum was saved. Six buildings on Broadway, eight on Ann street and five on Ful ton street were destroyed. The loss is estimated at $1,000,000. The Mu seum building belonged to the Astor estate, and the loss upon it is es timated at $40,000. It was insured. Barnum's loss in curiosities, futtni ture, machinery, &c., is set down at $300,000, on which he has insurances to the amount of $75,000. Barnum anounces that he intends immediately to rebuild the Museum, on a more magnificent scale than heretofore, and has already sent, off agents to Europe to collect curiosi ties. sir. The day of Mititary Commis sions, in limes of Peace, and outside the army, is probably over in this county. The unfortunate termina tion of the last one, not only illegal, but which resulted in the execution of a person believed by all unpreju diced minds to have beeninnocent, has given such a quietu*, to that branch of the "War Power," that neither. Stanton, Holt; and their friend in black, (with hoofs,) will hardly dare bring it to life' again. j The Government has decided to immediately muster out of service the remaining troops of the Army.of the Potomac, which were recently consolidated into a provisional corps under command of General Wright. "Governor Brownlow, in Tennessee has issued an address to the poop le of that State, infortning them of the validity of the new Constitution, and of his determination to enforce its provG ions.

The people have but one way to vote, and if, they vote, otherwise are to be considered dis loyal, and their candidate, if elected, arrested.

The Radicals of the Republi can party have determined either to rule or ruin their party. Great butte fit will result to the country from the ruin but none from the rule SIMON CAMERON has at length called a meeting of the Republican State Convention for the purpose of making nominations for State officers. As he postponed the meeting because the partialities of its members as to himself and the Governor were not exactly ascertained, it is fair to sup• pose that he has at length found matters all right. But the end is not yet. The friends of the Governor will not tamely submit. They will fight, and the coming convention will probably have a lively session.-- Each faction will be ably led. It is said the _National Administration leans towards the Governor. This is denied by the Cameronians. But to fortify themselvesagainst chances, the friends of Cameron are courting the radicals as allies. There will be fun in the convention.

They will not succeed, however. The people are tired of thinking of and supporting questions which do not effect their interests, nor tend to their comfort, and happiness, and purpose hereafter to give all such hobbies the go-by.— While having one eye on those who are striving to blindfold them so as to enjoy office and power, they will use the other for the advancemeat of their own interests, and, to make up for lost time and money during the last four years.

Early she knelt in the cell at her mother's feet, and sobbed, with, now and then a pitiful scream till the gloomy corridors rang. She endeavored to win from Payne a statement that her mother was not accessory, and, as a last resort, flung herself upon the steps of the White House, and made that portal memora ' ble by her filial tears. About half past 8 o'clock, Miss Surratt, accom panied by . a female friend, again vis ited the White House for the pur ' pose of obtaining an interview with the President. The latter having given ordera that he would receive no one that day, the door-keeper stop ped Miss Surratt at the foot of the steps leading up to. the President's office; and would not permit-her to proceed -further.
