The Case of Flonning at Fors nedgrwieß—

7 i rola , SEDGWION, Jane 16,1807.
The case of which I am wrlting_ about
PEeselite imusually interesting feats. A
stranger very much afflicted with an in.
durable disease, which incapacitated him
from manual labor, came up the road (H.
P. R. R.) about a week ago, and loitered
around. Wilson's Ranche on Pole Creek.
On the kith inst. this man, whose name was
Hendricks, was accosted by two men
dressed in citizen's clothes. They requested
him to buy them a bottle of whiskey, which
he consented to do. They furnished the
requisite funds, and he immediately went
to a store, bought the whisky, and gave it
to them. About two hours afterward this
man Hendricks was arrested and brought
down to Col. Dodge's quarters in the camp
of the 30th Infantry before Col. Dodge, who
accused him of selling whisky to soldiers.
Hendricks solemnly asserted that he did
not know they were soldiers, that if he had
known they were soldiers he " most cer
tainly would not have sold or given them
whiskey." Col. Dodge, without trial by
court-martial, ordered him to receive one
hundred lashes. At noon on the following
day, extensive preparations having been
made for the complete and effective carry
ing out of the sentence, the wretched cul
prit was brought from the guard • house to
the place of torture. A rude cross firmly
planted to the ground, attracted the atten
tion of the man, on which he gazed with dis
may. Lieut. Lantz of Co. F., of the 30th
Inf., commanded the squad detailed to
attend the punishment. Gathered around
to witness this most unusual and un-
American scene were some 200 soldiers and
a small group of citizens. When all was
ready, Lieut. Lantz ordered him to be strip
ped, which was immediately done, with the
exception of a short thin shirt which barely
reached his naked hips. Ile was then firm.
ly bound with his face to the cross. At a
given signal two soldiers armed with plait
ed thongs, who stood on his right and left,
raised their whips aloft and brought the
whistling hissing lash full on the naked
body, which sprung convulsively up
wards, as if touched with red-hot irons. A
broad, deep red wale marked the spot on
which the lash had fallen, but in a second
it was lost to sight by the strokes which fell
. thick.and fast on the unfortunate mull.
Gradually the deep, red wales assumed a
blackish color, and in u short time crimson
drops of blood rolled down the naked legs,
filling his shoes, or were splotched over - the
clothes of the spectators. Toward the
seventy•tiftli stroke, the flesh around the
hips bung in shreds, as if rudely torn by an
animal's claws. From the middle ot the
back to within six inches of the knees, the
body was perfectly raw and black. At Ittat
a citizen, named Seward, of New Julesburg,
intreated Lieut Lantz. to stop, "for God's
sake." The man's screams were awful; he
bounded from side to side, spasmodically
upward, and hung as if lifeless on the cross.
His lacerated body was perfectly frightful.
After 108 lashes had been administered,
Lantz gave the signal to desist. The
orderly sergeant says he counted, 82, but
two or three bystanders stated they counted
108. Leaning heavily on the cross after be
ing unbound, he managed to dress himself,
after which he was sternly ordered to leave
tile (limp and the military reservation at
Fort Sedgwick. Turtling one look toward
Lieut. Lantz, he crawled and limped pain
fully away toward the sand bluffs to the
northward. A feeling of universal horror
at the cruel punishment pervades all tile
settlements. Gen. Sherman had left for the
end of the track but two hours before the
punishment commenced. It is doubtful
whether he knew anything about it. Flog
ging, bucksiug and gagging, and stretching
soldiers "spread eagle" fashion, seems to be
the order of the day here. Lieut. Lantz,
through the influence of Senator Cameron, of
Pennsylvania, was appointed Second Lieu
tenant only 12 days ago. I imagine he has
commenced early. Still there are men in
the neighborhood who believe him to he a
Christian and a gentleman.
The Material Aspect or the South
A gentleman claiming to possess ade
quate information, writes to the Tribune as
follows :—" Virginia seems not to be as for
ward in iigiicultural enterprise as some
other States. The large towns are dull, ex
cepting perhaps Norfolk. In North Caro
lina there is a full average acreage of
cotton, and a fourth more of corn planed
than ever before. Both promise largiTly.
In South Carolina the poverty of the plant
ers is reported as having prevented as
inueli planting as would have been done. A
large area of corn is under cultivation and
promises well ; cotton looks flourishing. In
Georgia and Florida the crops are large in
area and promise well. Alabama offers an
excellent prospect. Things there seem
generally better materially than in the
other States, with perhaps the exception of
North Carolina. Louisiana and Mississippi
are badly all, owing to the crevasses in the
levee, and in Mississippi to the want of
labor also. Arkansas is not in much better
condition. Texas, from all accounts, is
nourishing beyond all former years. A
gentleman w hose d u ties give him a thorough
insight into and knowledge of the agricul
tural position of the South, and who for two
months has traveled through the South,
estimates the probable yield of the cotton
crop this year at two million and a half
bales."
The Now York tribune does not like the
looks of the coming session of Congress, and
thus expresses its fears:
Mr. Stevens and his friends, who were
defeated i u the attempt toplace the military
power under the control of Grant, will make
a bolder effort. We shall have confiscation,
perhaps, and land to the negro pressed by
a small minority: We do not think it will
be wise to make new issues, and we counsel
moderation with justice, as we did during
the last session. We dread to reopen this
question, because with it comes uncertainty,
and unrest, feverishness, endless and angry
discussions. We find a sentiment in the
West that has expression in a lbw miserable
jobbing newspapers—a kind of Thenardier
feeling. A number of office-beggars and
politicians, calling themselves the Grand
Army of the Republic, and meet
ing in out-of-the-way places with grips
and pass-words, are passing resolutions
demanding confiscation and farms. This
is either knavery or madness. People who
want farms work for them. The only class
we know that takes other people's property
because they want it is largely represented
in Sing Sing. The people of this country
do not want Sing Sing and Mexican ban
ditti principles introduced into their states
manship. We can never reconstruct Amer
ica by the gallows and the Deputy Sheriff,
and we trust that thespirit of kindness will
prevail—especially because this contest is
not made by the Southern people. They
accepted the military bill manfully, and
have endeavored to act under its provision.
Instead of apathy and wrath, and discon
tent, we have bound them eager and pains
taking in their effort to reorganize their po
litical system under the military bill. If
the work is arrested, they are not to blame;
and we have no right to increase the condi
tions imposed last March. If anything,
we should recognize the temper of the
South by limiting them.
Curious History of a State
The territory known as Wisconsin was
chinned by France On the ground of dis
covery by her Missionaries and travelers
in 1670, who governed it until they ceded it
to England. It was held by the English
until 1780, when it was coded to the United
States. It was claimed by Virginia for one
year, when she ceded her possessions lying
northeast of the Ohio to the United States.
Wisconsin was then under the Territorial
Government of Ohio. On the 4th of July,
1800, the Indiana Territory was organized,
and Wisconsin placed under its Jurisdig
lion, where it remained until 1809, when
the Illinois Territory was formed, and it
was attached to that territory until April
18, 1818, when Illinois became a State. It
was then joined to the Terrtiory of Michi
gan, until organized as the Territory of
Wisconsin in 1830.
So the State was governed by the King of
France thirty-three years; by the King of
England twenty years ; by the State of Vir
ginia one year; by the Indiana Territory
nine years, and by the Michigan Territory
eighteen years. She continued a Territory
nearly twelve years, and was admitted as a
State in 1848.
The Fruit Crop.
We learn that arrangements have been
made by the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore, and the Delaware railroads, for
running at least four fruit trains per dayfor
conveying the immense crop of fruit to the
Philadelphia, New York and other markets
the coming season. The railroad company
estimates the peach crop of Kent county
alone at 800,000 baskets. This Is, of course,
exclusive of all that vast region lying along
the buy and creeks. In 1864, the year that
is mentioned as the "heavy crop," there
was shipped from Smyrna 70,000 baskets.
This year the railroad company gives the
quota of Smyrna at 200,000 baskets.—Dela-
Ware Commercial.
Beet Sugar.
Recent Illinois newspapers speak with
confidence of the results of the efforts
making in that State to manufacture sugar
from beets, after the plan adopted in France
a few years ego, and since prosecuted with
much success. The subject is again brought
up prominently by the consignment Of
about thirty thousand pounds of sugar to
Chicago from the manufacturing establish
ment at Chattsworth. This sugar is said to
have been made in March, and is a part of
the product of last season's business, the
beets having been preserved in pits through
the winter. Experience seems to be con
clusive in regard to the good saccharine
properties of beets grown in this country, es
compared with those of France.
Dr. Wm. Jones, a native of Montgomery
county, Md., but who has resided in Wash
ington city, died last Tuesday night, at his
residence on C street, at the advanced age
0172 years. Dr. Jones occupied reputable
positions in various medical associations of
Washington dity, of Maryland, and of .the

Wesimicyroq, June 2.5.
The trial' of John H. Barrett was resumed
this morning in the Criminal Court, Judge
Fisher presiding. The Conit ioom was
:crowded - , as usual, and the air was very
oppressive. The Court was opened at 10.20.
John W. Garrett and Col. E; J. Conger
were sworn and testified in regard to Booth's
movements after the assassination. Colonel
Coriger identified a knife, some other arti
cles and the diary which were taken from
Booth's body.
Mr. Pierrepont then read the extracts from
Booth's diary, all of which have been already
published, and it was offered in evidence.
[The diary was published between the 15th
'and 20th of May.]
Mr. Pierrepont also proposed to read a
letter found in the diary; the witness could
k not identify it as part of the diary. It com
menced My dear"—and then a piece was
torn out, and Mr. Pierrepont said they
would not read it until identified by Mr.
Baker.
The diary was then submitted to the
Jurors and examined by them.
W. E. Wheeler, of Chicopee, Mass., was
sworn, and testified to seeing Booth in
Montreal in October, 1864. There was a
large man with him. Not the prisoner
Surratt.
Luther B. Baker was sworn, and testified
in regard to Booth's death. Witness con
tinued: I took from his person a knife,
pocket compass, pin, his arms and a diary,
[Articles named exhibited and identified.]
I only had the diary in my hands about a
minute, and then handed it to Colonel Con
ger. [Carbine exhibited.] I took one like
this from Booth ; when he fell in the barn
he let the carbine drop between hie legs.
[Leaf torn from a book shown to witness.]
Lyman Sprague, barkeeper of the Kirk-
wood House, was sworn and testified to At
zerott's haying a room there on April 14th,
day of assassination.
Samuel W. Chester, an actor, sworn and
testified to having been with Booth nearly
all afternoon on Friday a week preceding
the assassination; this was in New York;
had conversations with him at different
times.
The prosecution being done with the
witness Mr. Bradley said he proposed now
tolisk the witness as to what Booth said
' about the conspiracy ; what the conspiracy
was, iind when that conspiracy was shun
doned,',4s was done at the assassination
trial.
Mr. Pierrepont objected. They had culled
the witness for a specific purpose, to prove
Booth's presence 'in New York, and they
propose to connect it with other circum
stances.
Mr. Bradley said Booth was dead, and it
was charged that the accused was engaged
In a conspiracy with Booth, and it was
proper to show Booth's statements as to that
conspiracy, what it was and when it termi
nated.
Judge Fisher said such evidence could
not be adduced on cross-examination.
Mr. Chester was then asked by Mr.
Bradley if he had not sworn to a conver
sation with Booth at the trial of the con
spirators, but Mr. Pierrepont objected, and
the Court sustained the objection.
The business of the Court here came to
a dead-lock by the absence of witnesses.
The Court asked if the prosecution had
any more witnesses ready.
Sir. Bradley, pointing to the witness
room: "There are half a dozen waiting
out there in the penitentiary, and have
been there all the morning."
Mr. Merrick—"Oh, no; not in the pen
itentiary yet, but they will be."
Mr. Carrington said he knew of no other
way to keep witnesses hero except by at
tachment.
After waiting some time for witnesses,
and none appearing, the Court, at 2.45,
took a recess until 10 o'clock to-morrow•
WASHINGTON, June 20.
The Surratt trial was continued to-day.
Eight witnesses were examined for the pro
secution, including General Grant. James
J. Gifford, stage carpenter at Ford's Thea
tre, testified in regal d to the position of Mr.
Lincoln at the time of the assassination.
George W. Banver, room clerk at the Na
tional Hotel, testified in regard to the hotel
register, and the recorded time of Booth's
arrivals and departures thereon. Colonel
Henry W. Smith recited the circum
stances of Mrs. Surratt's arrest. General
U. S. Grant testified that when at
Milliken's Bend, in 1863, be saw Jacob
Thompson on board of Admiral Porter's
flagship. and Thompson stated that he was
an officer in the rebel army. The object of
the testimony was stated by the prosecuting
counsel to be the showing of a connection
existing between Thompson and Surratt.
Charles Dewson testified to a card marked
"J. Harrison Surratt," having dropped out
of a valise of Booth, at the National Hotel,
and to a letter to Booth signed "Lon." Col.
Richard J. Morgan gave an account of a
vita to Mrs. Surratt's house, and of ar
resting Payne there, and testified to the
finding of a whistle. The whistle being
blown iu court, witness said the sound was
similar to one he heard on the night of the
assassination, near Ford's Theatre. Mrs.
Mary Benson testified to finding letters in
a New York passenger car, in November,
1864, revealing a plot to assassinate.
In the Suratt trial 'yesterday the princi
pal witness examined was Lewis J. Welch
man, who testified that intimate relations
existed between John H. Suratt, Payne
and Booth; that Suratt held consultations
with Booth, Payne and the other conspira
tors a short time previous to the assassina
tion; and that there were various mysteri
ous journeyingp to New York and Wash
ington, with transmissions of letters and
despatches about the same time. Wm. R.
Conger testified to seeing a man looking
like Suratt at St. Albans, on the Tuesday
or Wednesday after the assassination.
West Point.
The recent examination at this institution
has excited more than usual interest. Its
value in providing officers to command the
immense militia force of the nation, when
an emergency demands it, is becoming
more appreciated every day. Of the twenty
hundred officers of the regular army when
the late war began, eight hundred and
twenty were graduates of West Point. One
hundred and twenty-nine resigned and
joined the South, while six hundred and
twenty remained in the army of the Union,
of which number one hundred and thirty
eight, or nearly as many as those who
resigned, were natives of the South
ern States. Of the officers who were in
the United States regular army when
the war began, one hundred and eighty
rive were killed outright, and nearly a
hundred wounded, or more than one
out of every two killed or wounded. In
view of future.exigencies that may arise for
service of the class of highly skilled officers
which West Point produces, we learn that
the board of visitors who attended the late
annual examination determined upon re
commending an enlargement of the institu
tion, increasing the classes from the present
number of about 250 to some 400 students.
The board of the present year comprise as
able men, perhaps, from different sections
of the Union, North and South, as ever
attended an examination at the institution ;
and having devoted themselves laboriously
and conscientiously to the discharge of
their duties, after full consideration of all
he facts, and eliciting the views of
General Grant on the subject, came to
the conclusion above indicated. The great
expansffin and development of the country,
and the rapid increase of population, have
convinced General Grant and other leading
o f
minter men of the necessity of an increased
tesou e from which to draw properly edu
officers when they may be needed.
The proposition, it is known, had been
made to engraft, as far as possible, military
education upon the colleges of the country
by government countenance and aid, but it
is understood the board of visitors did not
think well of this plan, and General Gant
also thought the enlargement of West Point
preferable. Hence the recommendation on
this subject which it is understood the
board have made in their report to the War
Department.—Baltimore Sun.
The " Black Death" In Ireland
A correspondent of the New York Sun,
writing from Dublin on the 12th inst., says:
For more than a year past a mysterious
and deadly disease has made its appearance
here. At first it created no alarm, and
comment upon it was confined to physi
cians and scientific men. Now it has as
sumed a formidable aspect, and cases shoot
up here and there in various parts of the
city, spreading alarm by their fatal termina
tion. It is generally pronounced to be
purple typhus fever. Whatever it is, there
is much mystery about it, and it may
spread further than our shores. At present
it is happily confined to Dublin, only one
or two cases having occurred in the provin
ces. There have been only fifty cases alto
gether. It is called, suggestively and ap
propriately, " The Black Death." A disease
called by that name, said to be more fatal
than the present one, devastated Ireland
before the English invasion, and more than
once in the middle ages. Its last appear.
ance here was in 1736, and it was more fatal
than a❑y plague. The disease is now, it is
believed, disappearing, or at least the cases
reported are very few.
Personal Appearance of the Pope
A correspondent at Rome describes the
personal appearance of the Pope : "1 met
him the other day on the Via Angelica, a
pleasant, shady a :t that runs out north
under the w -of the Vatican, where he
• : • as is his wont, to take an evening
drive. Ho generally drives out between
five and six o'clock, goes out a few hundred
rods, and then dismounts and walks. I
saw him walk over a mile, and then disap
peared from sight, still walking, while his
carriage followed slowly on behind. He
walks with the totter peculiar to old age,
and with a considerable stoop, and yetwith
not a little rapidity and energy. I am
bound to say Pius 12X. has the pleasantest
lace I have seen in Europe ; his good - nature
amounts to a weakness, and his hesitation
is said to give his councillors much
trouble."

SELF-RAKE
TRIUMPHANT
The only Rake that got the number Indicat
ing PERFECT WORK, in lodged wheat, at
the Great National trial at Auburn, New York,
in July, 1860,
MARSH'S COMBINED
SELF-RAKING REAPER AND
MOWER,
with one or two Driving Wheels as may be
preferred.
Patented 1863, '65 and '66, by James
S. Marsh, Lewisburg, Pa.
These Machines have the advantage of being
arranged in such a manner that the Cutter
Bar can be raised or lowered to suit the condi
tion of the grain to be cut without stopping
the team. They have Side Delivery.
The facilities for Mowing, with this Com
bined Machine are equal to a Machine built
on purpose for a Mower. The Cutter Bar is
raised and lowered at the will of the driver;
and the points of the Guard can be dropped
down when desired to cut lodged or down
grass.
THE "VALLEY CHIEF" HAS BEEN GREAT
LY IMPROVED AND STRENGTHENED
SINCE LAST YEAR.
One of them may be seen in the South-eas
corner of Centre Square, Lancaster City.
As a Reaper and Self-Rake it has no equal
in the field, and its claims to public attention
are being appreciated by experience and trial.
At the great trial of Reapers and Mowers
and Self-Rakes at Auburn, New York, in July,
1866, the "VALLEY CHIEF" MOWER AND
REAPER, and MARSH'S SELF-RAKE proved
worthy of the highest commendation and re
ceived the favorable report of the Judges.
As a Self-Rake, the Marsh Rake was the
only one out of 20 Machines that was marked
perfect (No. 400 in cutting lodged wheat on the
"Sheldon Lot," and but one other Machine in
the list that was marked even to No. 38 in the
test, all the rest being below that number.—
This was regarded as the great test of the trial
in Reaping and Raking. See pages 41, 42 and
43 of the Report. The entire Report may be
seen at our office.

ready for the painless operation. Its inhalation
Is much more pleasant than that of Ether or

instantaneously. No one need longer dread

E 1 ARM FOR SAL E.—THE UNDER-
E signed offers for sale or rent one of the best
WHEAT, CORN AND GRASS FARMS In the
County of Culpeper, Va. It has upon it a fine
and handsome HOUSE of modern structure,
with nine rooms of fine size, a large pantry
and fireplace; the out-buildings consist of a
large Kitchen of four rooms, a , moke House,
Corn House, and Stable. This farm contains
635 ACRES OF LAND
130
Acres of which is in Timber. It has plenty
of running water upon It; every geld can be
made accessible to water, and the most of them
have It. All of the fencing upon this farm was
destroyed by the war, but there is now two
hundred acres under fence, and the land is
adapted to all kinds of grain and grasses. I
have one of the best farms inJefferson county,
but it possesses no advantages over my farm In
Culpeper. This land lies within four miles of
Brandy Station, upon the Alexandria and
Orange Railroad, and within five miles of Cul
peper Court House. The land is clear of rocks
of any kind, and all kinds of farming imple
ments can be used to great advantage upon It;
in fact this farm can be farmed at one-half the
cost of any, other land in Jefferson or any
other county In the valley of Virginia, and
labor can be gotten at one-half the price, and
much better labor than we have in the valley.
This farm also has a fine Apple and Peach
Orchard In full bearing order.
If not sold, the Nubscrlber will rent the farm
to any good Pennsylvania termer for ten years.

SIiERMAN'S NEW PATENT
AS YOU LIKE IT SKIRT
'35 North Sth St., corner of Filbert. 35
This Is not only a new fashion, but a new
article of SKIRT, made on an entirely new
principle, so novel and yet so perfect the ladles
contend it should be called Perfection.
We would here call particular attention to
the AS YOU LIKE IT, or flexible joint, ex
tending down the front of the skirt; it is so
constructed that the springs fold inwardly,
but not outwardly, and readily yield to the
slightest pressure, thus allowing them to col
lapse, so that the skirt occupies the smallest
possible space whilst sitting, riding, or in pass
ing through a crowd, and yet the moment the
pressure is removed, the skirt resumes Its
original and beautitul shape.
The novelty and utility of this contrivance
need but be seen to be appreciated.
But for want of space we might here publish
thousands of extracts front letters, we are
daily receiving, speaking in the highest praise
of these Skirts.
OUR COI?SE7,)
Are now so well known for their superior
SHAPE, MATERIAL and WORKMANSHIP,
that it is perhaps unnecessary for us to speak
of them, further than to say that we have
greatly enlarged our assortmen t or Styles, both
of our own make and importation, and cau
now safely defy competition.
We ask but a trial and are sure of your future
patronage
