goad Outclligen cr. TR.EBINDOI7S STORM.—We doubt whether that antiquated and useful indi vidual, the "oldest inhabitant," ever saw a heavier rain and hail storm than that with whichour,city was visited on Thursday eve ning, about 5 o'clock. The rain and hail literally came down in sheets, and was per fectly blinding. There was not a person to be seen in the streets, for the simple reason that it was almost an impossibility for any one to stand the merciless peltings of the storm. The sewers on some of the streets were unable to carry off the immense body of water, and numbers of bar-rooms, barber saloons, dm, were inundated by a foot or more of water. Hail fell to the depth of six inches, and after the storm had somewhat subsided the streets presented the appear ance as if there had been a fall of snow. Trees were torn up from their roots, bricks from the chimney-tops and scattered pro miscuously, gable-ends of houses blown in, windows smashed, and the fruit and other crops almost entirely ruined. From every quarter where the storm raged we have the same accounts. The like of it we never before saw nor wish to see again. SOME OF THE EFFECTS. Several houses in different portions of the city were unroofed, among which was the hall of the Diagnothian Literary Society of Franklin and Marshall College. Three beautiful shade trees, in front of Augustus Ilitner's property, on the north west corner of North Queen and Lemon streets, werc, uprooted, and a portion of the pavement torn up. In North Prince street, the cellars gener ally were overflown with water, fences blown down, trees uprooted, among which was a large apple tree in the lot in the rear of Mrs. Speece's residence. In Mulberry street, several large willow trees were blown down, :ind in South iZueen street, in front of C. J. Plitt's nelel, the water and hail on the pavement was a foot deep. A sign of J. G. Alow-e's, in North Queen street, was blown down and carried to the door of Sheaf:lees Hook Store. In East Orange street, the gable end of a dwelling house was blown in, and other damages incurred. The pavement in front of the Court llouse was covered with more than a foot of water. On the Philadelphia turnpike, a short dis tance east of the city, at Homedale, the re sidence of W. Carpenter, Esq., twenty-six panes of glass were broken into fragments, the clover and grain blown down, :Ind :it the garden opposite, the plants and vege tables were ruined. The tobacco house of Mr. Peter E. Light ner, on the Columbia pike, just west of the city limits, was blown over. At the County Prison a large apple and poplar tree were uprooted; and also a large tree in front of Christian Rine's property, in West Orange street. —From the county we have tiarful ac oounts of the ravages of the storm. Tops of houses, barns, Nc., were.blown off, fruit trees torn from their roots, and the crops have suffered fearfully. A HAPPY REUNION.—OiI the Ist of April there was admitted into the Lancaster County Hospital 2111 aged t;erman, sick with an ulcerated leg, awl has been con fined to his bed ever since. On the 13th of April there was admitted ;t young German girl in the save institution, sick with the typhoid fever. She has become conva lescent, and wits yesterday walking about in the hall in close proximity to where the sick patients of a certain class of diseases are kept. One of the attendants, who is also a German, being on duty at the requested the girl to conic along with hint to the cell or the sick man, as lie was one of their countryman, when, to her astonish ment, she recognized in the patient hey aged father, whom she lied not seen fir• many years. Such tears of affection as were shed on the occasion are rarely wit nessed. After a separation of many , years, to meet under such circumstances, over came their feelings so much that they wept long, and embraced each other as tenderly as a mother would an infant. LANCASTER CuuNTY IN THE Su CORRT.—The Supreme Court of Pennsyl vania, for the Middle District, commenced at Harrisburg on Monday last. Present— Chief Justice Woodward, Justices Thomp on, Strong, Read and Agnew. On Tuesday, A. M. Frantz, Esq., of this city, was admitted to practice in the Su preme Court. The following cases of this county were argued on the same day: Lancaster County Bank vs. (:ross, A. Herr Smith and .1. Esqs., for plaintiff in error, and O. J. Dickey, Esq., for defendant in error. Bausman vs. County of Lancaster. T. E. Franklin and N. Ellmaker, Esqs., for plaintiff in error, and Jesse Landis and Samuel H. Reynolds, Esqs., for defendant in error. Kafroth, Graver and Carpenter's Appeal. I. E. Tfiester, Geo. Brubaker and A. M. Frantz, Esqs., for appellants, and Thotna, E. Franklin for appellee. On Wednesday the following Lancaster county cases were also argued: Erb vs. Erb. I. E. Mester and N. Ell maker, Esqs., for plaintiff' in error, and J. B. Amwake, Esq., for defendant in error. Columbia Insurance Company vs. Cooper, H. M. North and Thos. E. Franklin, Esqs., for plaintiff in error, and I I. J. Dickey and Wood, Esqs., for defendant iu error. Mann's Appeal. A. Ilerr Smith, Esq., for appellant, and Wm. lt. Wilson, Esq., for appellee. Smith's Administrators vs. Bartholomew. D. G. Eshleman, Esq., for:plaintiff in error, and 0. J. Dickey, Esq., for defendant in error. The Court adjourned till a o'eloek this morning. Tau NEW Maus-CENT Coix.—A few specimen pieces of the new throe-cent coin have made their appearance. As to size, the coin closely approximates the "‘liine" which had an extensive ante bellam cirsm latiou. The head of Liberty, and the words "'United States of America," and the date "1865" adorn the obverse; while the re verse bears the Roman numerals "III," encircled by a wreath. Like the one and two-cent pieces, the edge is plain. The piece has a silvery appearance when new, but the large proportion of copper contain ed will probably soon show its original color. The act of March IBS, authorizing its issue, makes the piece a legal tender for ill sums not exceeding sixty cents, and pro hibits further issue of three cent fraetiowal currency. DARING ROBBERY.—The tailoring estab lishment of Mr. Charles A. Gundaker, (formerly of this city), No. 533 Arch street, Philadelphia, was entered between 11 and 1.2 o'clock on Tuesday night and robbed of cloths andcassimeres, valued at from $1,500 to $2,000. An entrance was effected by the front door, false keys being employed for the purpose. The theft was committed very quickly. Mr. Gundaker had just closed his store and was about retiring, when he was alarmed by a policeman, who informed him that his door was open. He hastened down stairs and found that the robbery had taken place. It is evident that from the quickness with which the whole thing was arranged the thieves must have unlocked the door about as soon as it was fastened. GOVERNOR CURTIN has made arrange ments that whenever a Pennsylvania sol dier is killed or dies while in the service transportation is furnished for one person from his home to the place where the re mains of•the soldier may be, and also for both the person who goes for the body of the deceased and the remains back to his home. The transportation is furnished by Colonel H. H. Gregg, Chief of Transporta tion at Harrisburg. In applying for trans portation the name of the deceased soldier, his rank, company, regiment, date of death and the name of the friend going for his remains should be given. READY FOR DELIVERY.—The commis sions of the recently elected Justices of the Peace have been received, and are readyfor delivery at the Recorder's Office, in the Court House building. FOUND DEAD.—An elderly man named Samuel liogentebler, residing at Chestnut Hill, West Hempfield township, this county, was found dead in his bed one morning about two weeks ago. Before retiring, on the evening previous, lie was apparently in good health, Deputy Coroner Hunter, of Columbia, held an inquest upon tjne body, and the verdict rendered was that his death Waa caused by apoplexy. LITERABY.—The 24th anniversary of the Guithean Literary Society, of Franklin and Marshall College, was celebrated at Fulton Hall, on Friday evening last. The stage was neatly decoriited with evergreens, which hid its otherwise shabby appearance.— Above the stage were several flags, hung in graceful folds, in the centre of which was placed a portrait of Gcethe, and immedi ately above, the motto of the Society— " Gencsthe Phos "—tastefully executed in evergreen by the lady friends of the Society. The faculty were seated on the right and rear of the stage, and the speakers on the left as on former occasions. As is generally the case, the Hall was crowded by the friends of the Society, the larger portion of the audience being ladies. The music was furnished by the City Cor net Band: Rev. Bishop Bigler opened the exercises with prayer. The Salutatory Oration was then deliver ed by J. K. Gross, of Harrisburg, Pa., which was a fine and creditable effort. He paid a fitting and eloquent tribute to the memory of the late President Lincoln in a feeling and earnest manner. Mr. G. will make a good speaker, if he properly trains himself. Music—" St. Louis Quickstep." Oration—" Military Talent not the High est Endowment"—S. K. Kremer, Lancas ter, Pa. This was also a fine effort. He argued his point with an ability scarcely to he expected of one so youthful. His de livery was easy and natural, but his gesti culations were almost entirely confined to one hand. His effort was rewarded with several handsome bonnets. " Flow Gently, Sweet Afton." Ea/pgy—" The French Emperor"--R. C. Weaver, Easton, Pa. The entire life of Louis Napoleon, the present Emperor of Prance, was lmstilv reviewed in an inter esting manner by the speaker, who award ed him .great merit for his ambition and determination to rule his uncle's people.— lie concluded by referring to the interfer ence of the Emperor in Mexico, and assert ing that the Monroe doctrine must be enforced, awl the ambitious Emperor be made to feel the weight of American great ness. It was a good production, but he should have infused more spirit into its de livery. .I.ru.eir—" Gibraltar Waltz." opinion—" Th e Drama "—T. (1, Stem, Cherry vi I le, l'a. The integrity of the drama was well sustained by Mr. S. It was a brief history, being a review of it from its early intro, Mellon by the ancients to the present day. Ile appeared to understand his subject fully, and paid a splendid tribute to Shakespeare, the'iminortal Bard of Avon. His composition deservZia to be more (filly memorized. • - "The Wreck of the Sylph,"—E. L. Reed, of Stouchsburg, Pa. This 'was a well-written poem, but was not so well de livered as it should have been, lacking the spirit of its composition. We fear that his weak voice rendered it almost impossible for him to be heard at the buck part of the Hall. 3/(mic—" (Iwthean iralion—" The American Re public "—C. S. I terhard, of Lancaster, Pa. This was decidedly the ablest production of the evening. The delivery was very free and natural. The linn•thean Oration was placed in propel-hands. After a National medley by the Band, the audience was dismissed with a benediction, pronounced by the President, Bev. N. V. (;erhardt, I). 1). [OM AGAIN.—We were heartily glad to take by the hand on Saturday our old friend :111,1 Mexican correspondent, James Stewart, Esti., who returned to his home in this city on Friday, lie is the very picture of health, :nal is in the best of spirits. Although having a very favorable impres sion of the land of the Montezurnas in an agricultural point of view, yet, after all, he says there is no country like the United States. The Emperor Maximilian is a kind, good-hearted,thoroitgh-going business limn, and is trying everything in his power to bring order out of chaos, but his efforts have not been crowned with much success as yet, especially with the "Greaser . ' popu lation, Ile thinks that Alaximilian has got hold of the elephant, and would be ex tremely obliged to sonic person to explain to hint what to do with the big animal. Mr. S.'n brother-in-law, Col. Edward Mc- Govern, formerly of this city, is still in the Valley of Mexico, and is getting along finely. Lieut. J. (;urz, also formerly of this city, is engaged in the Pottery business near the City of Mexico, and is doing well. We are pleased to learn of the success of our old Laneasterian friends. HORSE AND BUI:1:1" STom.:::.—On Satur day night last, a light bay horse, attached to a trotting Lugg - 3 - . Moth belonging to Ben jamin Buckwalter, of this city, was stolen from the yard in the rear of Mr. Ilium Rea's Franklin House, on North queen street. A reward of $5O is offered by Mr. li, for the recovery of the property, and $:2O for the arrest :old conviction of the thief. DEAD or• A CHILD FOUND.—On Friday afternoon last, at Peter's Dam, on the Conestoga creek, near the village of Willow Street, the dead body of an infant child was found by several young men, while fishing. The body, when found, had niarka upon it, as though it had received vioienee. An inquest was held, and a ver . -' diet rendered in accordance will' the above facts. (:a.kxn Exet•nsto_N.—We learn from the Reading Daily Times, that the Junior Steam Fire Engine Company, of that city, are making necessary arrangements for a grand excursion to some of the neighboring cities of this State, in the early part of next fall, and as the city of Lancaster is on the list, we suppose they will meet with a cordial reception by our firemen. A MYSTERY—CITILD'S BODY FOUND.— The remains of a child, with a portion of one of the legs destroyed, was found on the premises of Mr. Christian King, in Martic township, on Sunday last. It was buried somewhere in the immediate vicinity, but hardly sufficient earth was put over it, as one of Mr. 'K . 's dogs found it and dragged it into the yard. The child was several days old, but who the unnatural mother is or by whom it was buried, has not yet been ascer tained. A ‘,,rouer's lug tiest was held, but ‘.vi have not I,arned the result. THE CROPS IN PENNSYLVANIA.-Our ex changes, without exception, speak of the prospects of the coming crops as remarka bly flattering,. Wheat and rye promise a most abundant yield, and the season has been favorable for oats and corn. So far we have heard of no complaints that the fruit has been injured by frost. The prospect is that the crop of fruit will be a full one. T E, NAME of .1. W. Johnson, attorney at law, Will be found in the advertising col umns of this number of the Intelligencer . Mr. Johnson is a native of this county, and was admitted to practice in the several courts of Lancaster county in 18(t2, since which ti me he has been practising at the York bar. NEW POSTA( E LA W. — Hereafter all do mestic letters, including drop letters, whol ly unpaid, or upon which less than one full rate of postage is prepaid, cannot be for warded, but will at once be sent to the dead letter office at Washington. AL'.,ZOTILER AMlDE:ST.—Yesterday after noon, a sinall boy, a son of William Roat, residing in East Orange street, who was employed at the same works, also met with an accident, which resulted in the loss of a linger of one of his hands and the badly bruising of several others. The accident occurred through carelessness while playing at the large lathe. PlißsoNAL.—Mr. Frank Diffenderfer and brother left this city this afternoon for El Paso, New Mexico. They carry with them the best 'wishes of their friends on their long journey. WARM WEATJIER AND ITS EFFECTS.— Many people, especially ladies, complain at this season of the year of general weakness or debility. The use of Speer's Samburg port wine pl'events this. The wine is said to have a most wenderful 'effect in giving. strength, vigor and tone to ate whole sys tem; it is extensively used by ladies nurs ing or about to nurse infants. The wine is not a manufactured article, es no water, sugar or liquor is added to it. Sold by }t., E. Slayntaker, Eest King ..da street, zteaster, Fa.

There are buts on hand in the stable. TILE NATIONAL TYPOORAPHICALUNION. —This body will convene in Philadelphi a on the first Monday in June, instead of May, as heretofore. The reason Mr the change in the time of meeting is the unusually un settled state of the weather in the earlier spring months. The next meeting of the National Typo graphical Union will be the most momen tous one ever hold by that body, and care ful and wise legislation will, no doubt' characterize its action. The strikes in the various cities will furnish ;in ample theme for discussion :mil deliberation, and we hope that the representatives of the craft, in con vention assembled, will be able to suggest some moans by which to prevent a recur rence of the difficulties which have been witnessed, during the past year, in New York, Boston, St. Louis, :111(1 other places. From the well-knuwu hospiudity of the Philadelphia printers, we bespeak a very pleasant and agreeable . for the dele gates in the Pity of Ilrotiierly Love. and hope the meeting of the National Union in that city may be looked upon its an epoch in the history of the Typographical Unions of this country. Messrs. William B. Strme, foreman of the composing room of tins office, and John A. Overdeer, late a clerk in the Provost Mar shal's office, of this district, were, at a meet- Mg held on Saturday evening last, unani mously elected delegates to represent Lan caster Union, No. in, in that body. ACCIDENT.—On yesterday afternoon, a man named William Fendrich, residing at Bird-in-Hand, this county, and an em ployee at the Turning Shop of Mr. Philip Lebzelter, in North Queen street, this city, met with an accident, which resulted in the sawing off of the middle linger of the left hand below the first joint and shattering the bone of the same to the middle joint, which will cause the amputation of the fing er at that joint. The tirst and third fingers of the same hand were badly cut and die flesh laid open, which are, however, only flesh wounds. Dr. - Wm. Compton was sent for, who attended to his injuries and dressed the same. Ire was sawing up sonic ash lumber at the time for Mr. M. F. Steiger walt, a coach manufacturer of this city, by means of a circular saw. Ile had only been working about a month for Mr. Lebzelter, and was unacquainted with machinery.— He had taken hold of the lumber at the end between himself and the saw, and through fear of :In ;o,•i,lont, relaxed his hold, and seized the other coo, drew his hand back upon the saw, and received the above injure. Ile had been frequently warned against taking hold of lumber in that man ner. FATAL ACCIDENT AT 'IMIE LOCOMOTIVE WORKS.—This afternoon, about 2 o'clock, a young man, named Joseph Danninger, son of the foreman of the Boiler shop, attached to the Norris Locomotive Works, this city, met with a littal accident. lie was stand ing in trout of a car, and while several of the employees were attempting to push the car out, was caught between the car and an old boiler, and crushed before he could es cape. The Drs. Atlee were sent for, but found upon their arrival, that his case was hopeless. He was taken to the residence of Mr. Harry McMann, in Pluutb street, a short distance front the works, where he ex pired shortly after. MAsoNm.—Rev. John Chambers, of Philadelphia, Grand Chaplain of the Grand Lodge of Ancient York Masons of Penn sylvania, delivered an instructive, interest ing and eloquent lecture before Lodge, No. 4:1, of this city, last evening. It was on the duties and obligations of Masons, and was decidedly the ablest and most eloquent lec ture on that subject that we have ever had the pleasure ollistening to. Our only regret is that it was not made public, so that all our citizens could have heard the same. Mr. O. is one of the most gifted pulpit orators in the country, and his eminent Christian deportment, and sole attention to the duties of his high and holy calling have given hint a name and fame to be envied by :ill who have noticed his " walk and con versation among men." DR. KIERSTEAD'S remedy, the Pain War rior, is said to be an excellent panacea for ninny of the aches and "ills which human flesh is heir to." The Dr. is now in this city, and is about establishing an agency for the sale of his remedy. He has met with much success in the sale of the medi cine in Centre Square, where crowds con gregate every evening to listen to him ex patiate on the virtues of the same. IVORMS ON THE CURRANT BUSHES.—The time is at hand when those who would re ceive a yield of fruit from their currant and goosberry bushes should be attending to them. lfence the following from a writer to the Syracuse Joitriutl is pertinent. lie I notice that the leaves of the gooseberry au e already infested with the eggs that hatch into those worms that proved so destructive to this bush and to the currant last year. The insert that lays these eggs is rather smaller than a house-11y, which it slightly resembles. The abdomen is, however, of a bright yell., Isla brown color, The iusoet is ruttysimtgish in its movements, and may be caught without much difficulty :and destroyed, and by its destruction the pro duction of many of the worms is prevented. The eggs, which are white, and about one twentieth of an inch long, are deposited on the under side of the leaves in rows along the more prominent veins. They are readily removed by rubbing the leaf between thumb and forefinger, or, if preferred, the infested leaves may be picked a and burned. If this plan of destroying the eggs and mature insects, where found, is thoroughly carried out by giving the neces sary attention to the bushes for a few minutes every day or two, it must of course, save the bushes. Front the slight observa tion I made last year, it appears to me those worms come in successive crops, and, per haps, the destruction of this early spring crop may prevent the development of the later crops. It will do so, if the insects that lay the later litters of eggs are matured forms of the larvae of the early crop. The gooseberry leaves seem to he first at tacked because they come forward earlier than those of the currant. Of course, at tention should he paid to the currant leaves as soon as the eggs begin to be deposited on them. The suggestion of this correspondent are well but if the mischief goes on and the worms are hatched, then they may be de stroyed by the use of hellebore, which may be sprinkled over the bushes in the morn ing when the dew is on, by the use of a tin box with a perforated cover. Perserve the currants by all means, for they are useful and come to the table at a season when no other fruit can be had.

From the Washington Star. The prisoners now on trial on charge of being concerned in the assassination conspiracy are David E. Harold, George A. Atzerott; • Lewis Payne, Michael O'Laughlin, Edward Spangler, Samuel Arnold, Mary E. Surrat and Samuel E. Mudd. We have already given the an• tecedents of some of these parties, and as these is a general interest to know all possible concerning them, we append the following further particulars coming to our knowledge : MRS. STIRRATT Mrs. Mary E. Surratt was raised near Waterloo, on Calvert's manor, in Prince George's county, Md. • Her maiden name was Jenkins. Her father died when she was quite young. As she grew up she displayed considerable force of character, and expressed a de sire to have a better education than was obtainable in her neighborhood, and she was sent to a female seminary in Alex andria. Returning to her mother's home, she became an acknowledged belle in Prince George's county, and quite as noted for her strong will, she seldom failing in anything she undertook. She married Surratt about the year 1835, and the couple first settled at a place known as Condin's Mill, near Camp Stoneman, (Giesboro',)- which property Surratt in herited from an uncle, named Neal.— After they had lived here a few years the house was set on fire by their slaves, who seemed to have been infuriated by some cruelty to which they were sub jected:through the imperious will of Mrs. Surratt. The Surratts barely escaped from the fire with their lives. Surratt afterwards engaged on the Orange and Alexandria Railroad as a contractor, and on finishing his work returned to Prince George's county, and bought a farm, on which he estab lished the tavern known as" Surratt!s," and afterwards was appointed Postmas ter at that point, but he being au un educated man, the duties of the office devolved upon his wife. They had three children, a daughter and two sons. One of the latter (Issas) went South at the outbreak of the re bellion, entering the Southern army, it is said. The •other son (John) staid about home, spending his time in idle ness or worse. The father was known as a pro-slavery man, and a sympathizer with the South in the rebellion to some extent, but was not looked upon as an open secessionist. He was an inoffen sive, good-tempered man, and was gen erally esteemed in his neighborhood.— He died very suddenly about three years since, and soon afterwards his widow leased the property and came to this city, where she or ened a boarding house on H street, which house has since become notorious •as the scene where was concocted some of the most stupendons deviltry of the world's his tory. Suratt's house and fafin is situated on the mail route from Washington to Leonardtown, Maryland, and is twelve miles from Washington post office, at the junction of the Marlborough and Piscataway roads. The house is a com fortable two-story double frame build ing, containing nine rooms, and on the front and one side are porticos for the visitors to enjoy the fresh air during the sultry seasons. The farm is well adapted for gardening purposes, and, though not very extensive, is profitable for wheat and tobacco. Michael O'Laughlin is a young man of twenty-five, or thereabouts. In size, and some otherparticulars, he resembles Booth ; with glossy black mustache, and rather gentlemanly appearance. He hails from Baltimore. O'Laughlin was the the first person confined on the monitor. He was brought from Balti more, where it is said he surrendered himself to the military authorities. 11=8 George A. Atzerott is short, thick-set, round-shouldered, of muddy complex ion, with brown hair, light-colored mustache and goatee, aged about thirty three, and is a blacksmith by trade. He was born in Germany, but raised, we learn, in Charles county, Md., where he has spent most of his life. His character has stood none of the best heretofore, and for some years he has been living with a woman not his wife near Port Tobacco, by which woman he has one child. For some months previ ous to the assassination he had been missing from Port Tobacco, and it is be lieved he had been engaged in blockade running and other traitorous practices. Edward Spangler is a rough looking, ordinary man, of about forty years of age, hails from Baltimore, and has for some two years past been employed as an assistant to Gifford, the stage carpen ter at Ford's Theatre, behaving worked with fiord at house-carpentering, for many years in Baltimore. Spangler came originally from some interior town in Pennsylvania, but, we believe, learn ed his trade in Baltimore, where he was married. His wife died some years ago in Baltimore, since which time he has been of intemperate habits, and it is said that he appeared to be considerably under the influence of liquor on the morning of the day of the assassination. He was the subject frequently of practical jokes by his companions be hind the scenes, and in this connection au incident is mentioned that in the eyes of the superstitious might be deem ed to have an ominous meaning. During the winter of 1864-'65, when some new scenery was being prepared, the scene painters were in the habit of displaying the names of different employees of the establishment upon the backs of the various slips. Spangler remarked that his name had been neglected, when one of the painters, as a joke at his expense, hauled out a piece of scenery designed to figure in connection with a prison yard, and which bore a representation of a gallows. Upon this he dashed with a few broad strokes of his brush the name of Edward Spangler. Spangler, it will be remembered, was the man who had charge of Booth's horse in the rearof the theatre, but who turned the animal over to " Pea-nut John " before Booth made his exit from the theatre. It is supposed that he may know something of the bar of wood Fit ted to the door in the rear of the stage box ; and also that he had something to do with keeping a path clear for Booth behind the scenes, and with af fording ready means of exit through the rear door: The bar above mention ed served as a brace to keep the audi ence from entering the box while Booth was accomplishing his work, and the job of fitting it accurately to the posi tion required was one in which Booth would need the aid almost certainly of some one connected with the establish ment, and naturally one in the carpen ter's department. Of some other employees at Ford's, now in durance, the following may be of interest: James Gitibrd, stage carpenter, is a large square-built man, approaching 50 years of age, with dark brown hair, smooth face, and is by trade a carpen ter. He formerly was a house carpen ter and builder in Baltimore and vicin ity, and as such built the house of Booth's father, near Baltimore, it is said. Sev eral years since he engaged as stage carpenter at Holiday Street Theatre in Baltimore, and has followed that busi ness since. He was of an unpleasant temper and not generally liked by those under him. He has a fine family living in Baltimore. On the establishment of Ford's Theatre here lie came to this city and superintended the work of altering the old Baptist church into a theatre, and has been employed there ever since, and superintended the rebuilding of the theatre after it was burned. He is not a very loquacious man, but his sympa thies are known to have been with the South throughout the war. James Maddox is a young man well known about Washington. He was born at or near Dumfries, Va., is 26 years of age and has lived many years in the lower' portion of the second ward. For a long time he was an active mem ber of the Franklin Fire Company. He is about 5 feet 6 or 7 inches high, round and compactly built, light hair and blue eyes, with a ruddy complexion. He went to school at Henshaw's public school, and, after leaving it, learned the saddle and harness making business, but has been employed about the theatre for about ten years. He was first at the National, then at the Washington, and for a short time was at Holliday street, Baltimore, but Since Ford's theatre has been :in operation he has been constantly employed as the pro , perty man - .there. He was married about two years ago to one of the' ac tresses of Ford's company, known on the bill iis*.laggie Burns. -He has al ways 'been regarded as a worthy young man, his only fault being that he would get drunk occasionally ; ar_d he was looked upon as soundly loyal. MEM Sam Arnold was arrested at Fortress Monroe. He was a Baltimorean, and had been for a short time at For tress Monroe as chief clerk to the cashier of the sutlery establishment of J. W. Wharton. MM! Of Lewis Payne little is known as yet. He was apparently a hired assas sin despatched from Canada to do a job of bloody work. He is - said to be an outlaw from Kentucky originally, and to have been concerned in the St. Albans robbery and other schemes of deviltry concocted in Canada. Speech of President Johnson to the Colored People. President Johnson gave an audience to a number of colored men on Thurs day. They were introduced by Rev. E. Turner, D. D., the President of the National Theological Institute for color ed ministers, the centre of• whose oper ations are in the city of Washington. He said, in the course of his address, that some of them were members of the Institute and pastorsof churches, while others had been preaching to their own people in different sections of Virginia, coming in contact with a colored popu lation of probably not less than two or three hundred thousand souls, thus ex erting a healthful -influence on, their social and moral condition. He gave to the President a copy of the resolutions passed by them with refer ence to the assassination of President Lincoln and expressive of their grati tude for the emancipation proclamation and their loyalty to the constitutional authorities, etc. President Johnson in response, re marked that it was scarcely necessary for him to repeat what his course had been in relation to the colored man, as every body within the reach of information had already been made acquainted with it. It was known that though he was born and raised in a slave State and had owned slaves, yet he never sold one and they have all gone free. There was a difference in the responsibility which persons who reside in the slave States have to take on the subject of emancipation from those who reside out of them. It was very easy for men who live beyond their borders to get up a sympathy, and talk about the condition of colored persons when they knew nothing about it. Their great sympa thy was not reduced to practice. Lt was known that there were men in the South, notwithstanding the two classes once occupied the position of master andser vaut, who felt a deep interest in their welfare and did much to ameliorate the condition of the freedmen. He repeated that it would he unnecessary for him to make a profession of what he had done on the subject of emancipation, for which he met with taunts, frowns and jibes, and incurred all the (hangers to property, life and limb. He claimed no merit for this, becausehe was only carrying out the principle he always entertained, namely—that man could not hold property in man. And he was the first who stood in a slave com munity, and announced the fact that the slaves of the State of Tennessee had as much right to be free as those who claimed them as their property. When the tyrant's rod is bent and the yoke broken, the passing from one ex treme to the other, from bondage to freedom, is difficult, and in this transi tion state some think they have noth ing to do but fall back upon the Gov ernment for support, in order that they may be taken care of in idleness and debauchery. There was one idea which those whom he addressed ought to in culcate, namely, that freedom simply means liberty to work and to employ the product of a man's own toil, and how much he may put into his stomach and on his back. He meant this in its most extensive sense. Gentlemen, i tiTChongress and people of the North and Sduth talk about Brigham Young and debauchery of various kinds existing among the Mormons; but it was known that four millions of people within the limits of the South have always been in open and notorious concubinage. The correction of these things is necessary in commenc ing a reform in the social condition and in this there must be a force of example. He would do all in his power to secure their protection and ameliorate their condition. He trusted in God the time may come when all the Colored people may be gathered together in one coun try best adapted to their condition, if it should appear that they could not get along well together with the whites.— He expressed the hope that the erlbris for their social and moral improvement would be successful, and in th is he prom ised is co-opei talon; and, in conclusion, he thanked his audience for their mani festations of kindness, and the evidences of their friendship.

Kin—l have the honor to report that at daylight yesterday, at Irwinsville, I surprised and captured Jeff: Davis and family, together with his wife, sisters and brother, his Postmaster-General, Regan; his private Secretary, Colonel Johnston, A. D. C., on Davis' staff; Colonel Lubbick and Lieut. Hathaway ; also several important names, and a train of five wagons and three ambu lances—making a perfect success, had not a most painful mistake occurred by which the 4th Michigan and Ist Wis consin collided, which cost us two killed, and Lieut. Boutelle wounded through the arm, in the 4th Michigan ; and four men wounded in the Ist 'Wisconsin. This occurred just at daylight, after we had captured the camp, by the advance of the Ist Wisconsin. They were mis taken for the enemy. I returned to this point last night and shall move right on to Macon without awaiting orders from you as directed, feeling that the whole object of the ex pedition is accomplished. It will take me at least three days to reach Macon as we are seventy-five miles. out, and our stock is much exhausted. I hope to reach Hawkinsville to-night. I have the honor, etc. (Signed) D. B. PRITCHARD, Lieut.-Col. 4th Michigan Cavalry. The Ist Wisconsin belongs to La grange's brigade, McCook's division, and had been sent due east by General Croxton, via Dublin. Colonel Mintz had distributed his command all along the south bank of the Ocmulgee and Altamaha. This accounts for the col lision between parts of the First and Second divisions and shows the zeal of the command in pursuit. I have direct ed increased vigilance on the part of the command in the hope of catching the other assassins. Our dispositions are good, and so far none of the rebel chiefs have been able to get through. Breckinridge's son was captured night before last, eleven miles south from here. I will send further details as soon as received. (Signed) J. H. WILSON, Brevet Major (general .m.A.coN, GA., U) A. M.. I May 13th. ) Hon. E. M. Stanton Secretary of War Lieut. Col. Harden, commanding Ist Wisconsin, has jus t arrived from Irwins ville. He struck Davis' trail at Dublin, Laurens county, on the evening of the ith, and followed him closely night and day through the pine wilderness of Al ligator Creek and Green Swamp, via Cumberlandville to Irwinsville. At Cumberlandville Col. Harden met Col. Pritchard with 150 picked men and horses of the 4th Michigan. Harden followed the trail directly south, while Pritchard, having fresher horses, push ed down the Ocmulgee towards Hope well, and thence by House creek to Irwinsville, arriving there at midnight of the 9th. Jeff. Davis had not arrived. From citizens Pritchard learned that his party were encamped two miles of the town. He made his dispositions and surrounded the camp before day. Harden had camped at 8 P. M., within two miles, as he afterwards learned from Davis. The trail being too indistinct to fol low, he pushed on at 3 A. M.,and had gone but,little more than one rdle when his advance were fired upon by men of the 4th Michigan. A fight ensued both parties exhibiting the greatest determi nation. Fifteen minutes elapsed before the mistake was discovered, The Ming in this skirmish was the first warning Davis received. The captors report that he hastily put on one of his wife's dresses, and started for the woods, closely followed by our men, who at first thought him a woman, but seeing his boots while running, suspected his sex at once. The race was a short one, and the rebel President was soon brought to. He brandished a bowie knife of elegant pattern, and showed signs of battle, but yielded promptly to the per suasion of the Colt's revolvers, will - out compelling the men to fire. He ex pressed great indignity at the energy with which hewas pursued, saying that he hart-believed our Government more magnanimous than to hunt down a woman and children. Mrs. Davis re mark to Col. Harden, after the excite ment was over, that the men had bet ter not provoke the President, or he might hurt some of 'em. Reagan behaves himself with becom ing dignity and resignation. The party were evidently making for the coast. (Signed) J. H. WILSON, Brevet Major General. #perial gotires. Consumption.

Also, a rirst-rate Guano Sower attached if desired HORSE POWERS AND THRESHING MACHINES, WIND-MILLS, STEEL TOOTH lIAY AND GRAIN RAKES --a good article. Farmers having the Kirby or the Jersey Reaper and Mower can have them repaired at short notice, as I have the castings on hand. Having had ten'years' experience in the Drill business, anti having employed the best me chanics, I feel confident I can turn out good Work. Persons in want of a genuine Grain Drill will be careful that they get the Reeler & Barthel, patent, manufactured by Jacob Bar thel, as there are others trying to put up Drills that are not genuine. Repairing of all kinds done on reasonable terms, and at short notice. By strict attention to business I hope to re ceive a liberal share of public patronage. JACOB BARTHEL. 110 FARMERS! WFIITENACK'S IMPROVED NEW JERSEY MOIYE,R AND REAPER WITH DORSEY'S SELF-ACTING RARE The manufacturers of this machine have the best reason for believing that it is the best Reaper In use. The advantages claimed for Dorsey's Self-Acting Rake on the Jersey Reap er are these : It is of lighter draught than any other Machine known. It is extremely simple in construction ; compact and durable. It dis penses with the Reel entirely ; the Revolving Arms serving a far better purpose, gathering the grain gently tojthe cutters. When sufficient straw has been cut to form a proper sized sheaf, the Rake, in an easy, grace ful manner, removes it from the platform by side delivery, leaving the track perfectly clear, so that an eutlre field may be cut, if desired be fore binding a single sheaf. _ No straw will be found scattered between the sheaves. The sheaves are delivered with regu larity. Their compact and neat appearance cannot be equalled by any band-rakes, from reaping machine or cradle swaths. For sale by GEO. D. SPRECHER, No. 2S, East King street, Two doors West or the Court House, my 10 4tw 18J Lancaster, Pa, MICORMICK 'S IMPROVED SELF- Raking Combined Reaper and Mower for 18115, one of the greatest labor-saving machines of the age, It is superior to all others, because It is made of the best material, and for field work strong enough to be safe, durable and re liable at all times. It has the advantage of making a perfect separation by the Rake, In all kinds of grain, whether tangled or lodged, long or short, by reason of the operation of the Rake in revolving over the reel, and making the separation in the uncut grain, or before tho sickel. The certainty of a clear cut apparatus and platform at the making of each sheaf, no matter how tangled or short the grain may be, The grain may hang over the separator to the left and be out of reach of other Rakes and make a trail certain, while ours cannot fall to clear all out every time. The motion of the Rake and Sickel can be stopped at pleasure. It rakes the grain off the side of the Machine, and deposits it in a most excellent shape for binding. Yet so loosely does the gavel lay on the top of the stubble that there can be no beating if it has to lay there a longer time than usual, and the brindles being less compact than others, will dry up after a shower of rain. This is a very important feature of our Machine, Warranted. Farmers who want to secure a Machine, should order early. For sale by JOHN B.
