PtedtattWiUiS. Booth’s Lincoln'aMnctlon conspiracy. Statements of Arnold and Atserodt. There has Just been given for publication —'With what motive no one need care to in quire—copies of certain statements made by Samuel B. Arnold, now one of the Dry Tortugas prisoners, and Atzerodt, who was executed for alleged complicity la the Lin coln assassination, the former written by Arnold, In Baltimore, on the 18th of April, 1865, Just after his arrest at Fortress Mon roe, and the latter by Atzerodt the night previous to bis execution. Arnold always admitted that he had originally been party to an arrangement for capturing Mr. Lin coln and running him off to Richmond, which design was abandoned; but the de tails which he gives in this statement hqve some interest, though not being entitled to prejudice, In any way, the status of the question of bis pardon. The statement of Atzerodt is so confused and rambling that It is difficult to determine whether he means to indicate that Surratt was in Washington at the time of the assassination or not, though he does not profess to have then seen him there. These papers have been in the handßof Ex-Marshal McPhall,. of Balti more, who, nuw that Surratt's case is aban doned, furnishes them for publication: CONFESSION OF BAMUEL B. ARNOLD, MADE ON THE 18TH OF APRIL, 1865, To Whom it May Concern; Know that 1, Samuel B. Arnold, about “tbe latter part of August or first part of September, 1864, was seut for by J. Wilkes Booth, who was a guest at Buroum’s Hotel, in the city of Bal 'timore, Maryland, to call to see him. I bad not seen the same J. Wilkes Booth since 1852, when we both were schoolmates at St. Timothy's Hall, President L- Van Bokke Jen then having said Hall as a place of tui tion. His reception of me was wurm. Call ing for wine and cigars, we conversed a short time upou our former school boy days We were interrupted bv a knock at the door, when Micbsel O'Luughlin was ushered in Ahcr a lormul im roduction, we sal sipping Our Wine, and all three smoked a cigar. Luring smokiug, he having beurd previous ly of my political feelings or sentiments, he spoke in glowing terms of the Confederacy and the number of surplus prisoners in the hands of the United States. Then ensued the proposition by J. Wilkes Booth, and which be {J. Wilkes Booth) thought could be accomplished,viz •Of kidnapping Presi • dout Lincoln, as lie frequently went un guarded out to the Soldiers’ Home ; and he thought he could be picked up, carried to Richmond, and for his exebungo produce the exchange for the President of all the prisoners iu the federal hands. He, J. Wiiaea Booth, the originator of the scheme, asked if wo would enter into it. After puiniiug the chances of success in such glowing colors, we consented, viz: Michael O’ Luughlm and myself. We wen bound not to divulge it to a living soul. I saw him once more lu Baltimore, and then he (J. Wilkes Booth) left to arrange his business up North, first to Now York, thence to the oil regions, aud from thero to Boston, and finally to Canadu. He was to be back in a mouth. I received a letter, which I destroyed, stating ho was laid up with erysipelas in his arm, and as soon us he was able be would be with us. Months roiled around, and he did not make his up nourance until sumo time in January. Jn his trunk he had two guns, cap cartridges, which were placed in tin-gun stocks—Spen cer rifi-H I tnmk they were called—revol vers, knives, belts, cartridge-boxes, cart ridges, oaps, canteens, all fully fixed for service, which were to bo used incase of pursuit, and two puirs handcuffs to hand cutl' the President, llis trunk being so heavy, be guve the pistols, kiiive.'j,and band cntl-i to Michael O’Luughlni and myself to huvo shipped or bring to Washington. He tn* n returned from Washington, to which piai e he had gone,- bought a horse, hurness and buggy wagon, leaving the team, <fcc., with’ us to drive on to Washington. We started from Baltimore about twelve or one (/clock, afier liaving shipped the box containing iho knives, handcuffs and pis and he told us of the theatre plan slightly, saying lie would wait till we pm the horse awuv, atgl tell us more Cully. He had pre viously, us I now remember, spoken of the chances at the th< utre if wo could not sue eeed in the other plan at the Soldiers’ Horne. We went to the theatre that night, ho iJ. Wilkes Booth) telling us about the ditferont back entrances, and how feasible the plan was. He bad rented a stable in the rear of the theatre, having bought two hordes down the country. One was in the stable behind the theatre, the other at liv ery. Met him next day ; wont together to breakfast with him. IJe was always pressed with business with a man unknown to us then, by the name of John Surratt; most of Ids (Booth’s) lime was spent with him. We were le'i entirely in tho dark. Michael O’Lnugblin and myself rented a room on D street, No. 420, and obtained ineals ut the Franklin House, on the corner of D and Eighth streets. We thus lived for nearly two months, seeing him perhaps three or four times during the week, aud when seen, always bill for a short time, having still pressing business always on hand, viz: to see John Surratt. Michael O’Lftiighliu ami uiyself drove out, occa sionally, the hoj'so liveried at Mr. Nailer’s stable. We drove always (but once) in the city and Georgetown; the once-excepted across the Eastern Branch bridge, when we went upward of five miles, 1 suppose, and returned. This was tho only time I went over the bridge. How often J. Wilkeß Booth crossed I cannot state, but, from his owu words, often, Thus was Michael O’Laughliu’s and my time spent for the tols, arriving in Washington übout seven or half-past sever’ the same evening. We met him on tue street us we were passing the theatre. We alighted, took a drink, most part—down at lLillmun’s Hotel (now vSiuclnir House,) on Pennsylvania aveuue aud Louisiana aveuue iu drinking and umusements, with oiber Baltimoreans be sides ourselves congregating there, all ot whom know nothing oi our business but that of selling stock. Oil stock was tlKf blind for-tbem as well os my family. Luring the latter part of March, whilst standing on Hullnmn’s porch, betweeu eleven and twelve u’cloch P. M., n young man—name unknown, as I cannot remem her names—about ii ve feet five or six inches high, thick set, l<?ng nose, sharp chin, wide cheeks, small eyes, (gray, 1 think,) dark hair aud well dressed, —color I don’t re member—culled Miehuel O’Laughlm aside, uud said J. Wilkes Booth wished to see us both' at Haulier's saloon, on the avenue. I wus then for the first time introduced to him but furgot his name. Wo walked up to goiher. Mich’l O'Laughlm, this unknown aud myself were ushered into the presence of J. Wlikes Booth, who introduced me to John Surratt, Atzerodt, alias Port Tobacco, , alias Moseby, making in’all seven persons, J. Wilkes Booth had sent word to Michael O'LuughMu to bring mo up in a good humor (still always in the dark.) Then commenced tho plan lor seizing the President. Each had his part to perform. First, I was to rush into the private box and seize the President, while Atzerodt, alias Port Tobacco,,uml J. Wilkes Booth were to handcuff' him and lower him on the stage. whilst was to catch him and hold him till we got down. Surratt uud the unknown were t<> heuii the otherside of the KtiS'eru branch bridge to facilitate escape. It was a terwurds changed to Moseby and Booth to catch him m ihe box and iolower him to me on the stage, O'Laughlin and the unknown wore to put the lights out, und Surratt and Atzerodt, alius Port Tobac co, to be on the other side of the bridge. I-was opposed io the whole proceeding, and said it could not be accomplished Ji ever, which was an impossibility, we could g<-t him out ot the box and to "the bridge We would be .stopped by theseuiinel. “Shoot •he sentinel,” buid Booth. I said that would not do, for ifuu alarm wasgiven the whole thing was up, and, as for me, ] want ed the shadow of a chance for escape and success. Michael O’Laughlm wanted to argue the same way, whereupon J Wilkes Booth said, “You find fault with every thing concerned übout it.” I said no; that I wanted to have a chance, Jam! I in tendon to have it ; ihat he could be the U oler oi the party, 1-ui not my executioner Whereupon J. Wilkes Bo >tb remarked, in a stern, commanding and angry voice, “L you know you -are liable to be shot? re member your oath.” 1 told him the plan or basis bad changed, and a compact on the part of one biok-n is broken by all. If you Joel inclined to shoot me. you have no fur ther to go, I shall defend myself 'Phis, it 1 remember urlgbt, wbs on a Friday, or may be a Thursday night, when I Hind, “Gentlemen, if this is not accomplished this week, I forever withdraw from it.” 1 (stayed up until about six or seven o'clock next morning, Friday or Saturday, and ’then went to bed. I remained in-doors un til 12 o’clock, when I arose and went to get my breakfast. Michael O’Laughlin and myself roomed together, both arose at the same time, and were always, in a measure, together. Went to bed that evening about 7$ o’clock. This day that I went to bed bo early we met übout 2 or tbereubouts ; told mo. I spoke angrily tho night of meeting ; said I ban been drink ing. I told him no; I was in my sober flenses, and meant every word fsaitl; ifnot accomplished this week J withdraw. Next day the thing was to lie accomplished on the Seventh street road and failed. On Sunday I stayed in Washington, and on Monday or Tuesduy I returned to Balti more, ami thence to Hookatnwn. J. Wilkes Booth iu the meantime went to New York, and returned to Baltimoroduringtheweek, on Saturday, I think. He said lie wished to see me on very urgent business, and my father sent f<ir me. 1 came from the country and he had gone to Washington, whereupon I wrote him the letter which was found In his trunk. The Richmond authorities, as far as I know, knew nothing of the conspi racy. The letter was written after mj return to the country, after finding he could not wait to see.me m Baltimore. During ibe week I came to the city and met Michael O’Laughlin, who asked me to go to Washington with him to finaUy ar range his affairs. I went in the morning— Friday, I think—and returned Bame eve ning borne, having cut loose forever from it. Next day I received a letter from J. W. Wharton, at Fortress Monroe, giving me employment. Went to the country, got my clothing, and on Saturday, the Ist day of April, left Baltimore for Fortress Mon roe, at which place I have remained, never corresponding with Booth or seeing him from the above named date to the present writing.’ The ground work was to kidnap the President without violence. He neyer to me said that he would kill him. Fur ther than this I know nothing, and am in the LANCASTER WEEKLY INTEIHGENPER. WEHPTESPAY, JAJSnjA.BY 27, 18694 nooent of having taken any active part in the dark deed committed. Bamtjel B. Arnold. THE PLAN' 07 ESCAPE Was to place Mr. Llnooln in the bnggypur ebased for the purpose, and cross the East ern Branch bridge. Surratt and Atzerodt, alia* Port Tobacco, were to follow them to where he bad a boat.concealed, tarn the horse loose, place the President in the boat, and cross thePotomaoto the Virginia shore, and thence to make our way to Richmond. Burratt knew the route, and was to act as pilot. Samuel B. Arnold. • A box painted black, like unto a sword box, was sent by Booth from the hotel by the porter there to our room. The next day it was transferred in a wagon, O'Laugb lin acting pilot, to someplace. I was not present. After giving the box to the driver went to Georgetown, aDd O Laugblin bad the full ohargeof it. M. O’Laughlin said he took it to Mr- Heard’s, and from thence the unknown carried it home. Took the guns out aud carried them to Pedee. This latter clause Booth told me. Samuel B. Arnold. Witness: V. Randall, E. G. Horner, Baltimore, April 18th, 1865. Confession of Atzerodt Relative to tbe Assassination of President Uneoln. I had not seen John Snrratt for about eight days before the murder. Booth told me a few days before the murder that he was in Washington. Kate Thompson, alias Brown, came from Richmond with John Surratt about the time that Richmond fell. He bad come previously with Gustavua Howell, now in the Old Capitol Prison. Kate Thompson stopped at Mrs. Surratt’s, and also at the National and Rinnel Hotels. This woman was about 21 years of age, spruce and neat, medium size, black eyes, and fair complexion. She had a sister In New York, who, it was said was a widow. Surratt was made known to her in New York by a sigoal conveyed by a small switch with a waxed ehd and a piece of red ribbon on the butt, bandied horizontally through the fingers. This sign was given on a hotel pavement on Broadway. He went with her South, and hired a horse at Howard’s Btablea for the purpose. Harold came to the Kirkwood House and left tbe kuife, pistol and coat, on the even ing oi the murder, about half past six o’clock, as I was about 1-avlng, I having told the clerk to tell whoever might call that I was gone out. This was before Har old came in. Harold and I then went to ihe Herndon House. Mrs. Murray’s, corner ofNiuthandF streets. Jt wus then about 8 o’clock, und suw Booth, Wood aDd Payne in Wood’s room. Here the proposed murder was first mentioned. I refused to take part in it, when Booth said, “ Then we will do it, but what will become of you ? you had belter come uioog and get your horse.” 1 then left them und went to tbe Oyster Bay on the avenue, aud stayed some time; then to the stable and got my horse aud went up D street. This wasabout 10 o’clook. I called at the Rinnel House aDd got a drink. I saw none of the party after we separated ab jut 9 o’clock thut evening. I then went out 0 street toward the Baltimore depot; went between the old uud new’ Capitol; came on the avenue again, and concluded to corne buck. I rode down the avenue and the cavalry wore dashing by m,s. This was the tirst I heard of the murder, ji then went up Eighth street, left the hprse ut the stables opposite tbe Franklin House-, and then went to tbe Herndon House, and heard a little boy talking about the murder. I then took a car and went towards'the Navy Yard. This was about 11 o’clock, und I mot two young men named Briscoe and •Spates, with whom I lfad some talk. After walking eorne distattce a took u cur to the corner of Sixth street and Pennsylvania avenue. Yllere I met a man inquiring for a place toHsleep at. I took him round to the Rinnel House, and wo retired to one room with six beds iu it. I left early next morn ing and passed through Georgetown on my wuy to Montgomery county. No one left tho hotel with me. Isuw MikeO’Laughlin about a week before tho President was killed. I never wanted O’Laughlin aud Arnold’s aid; met O’Laughlin once or twice ut Snthard’s and a few times in the street. When wo were at Murray’s on the night of the murder, Harold said he hud a letter from a printer to Andy Johnson. He suid bo was going to give it to him, aud he wap ted me to give him the key of my room, which I refused to do. Previous to the arrangement of tho mur der Booth heard that the President was to visit a camp. The each wus to be taken out Seventh street. Surratt was to jump on the box as he wus the bestdriver, and drive through Old Fields to the Long Bridge. This was übout the middle of Mnrcb. O’Lnugblin, Samuel Arnold, Puyue, Sur ratt, Booth, Atzerodt, and Harold went to the Long Bridge with two carbines, und were to wait for us. They did so until mid night and returned to Washington next morning. This faiied All was quiet then fur some time. Booth went to New York, Arnold to Baltimore, O'Laughlin also, and Puvne left for New York. After this Howell brought a woman across the Potomac.— Howell was made prisoner, and Surratt took her North, about a week before the murder. Booth told mo that Surratt was at the Herndon House; on tho night of tho murder, tho 14th of April, we were not all together at the Herndon House, Booth told me Surratt was to help at the box, thui be expected others in the box. Booth went from the Herndon House, down Ninth street. The words of Booth were “I suw Surratt a few moments ago.” All the par ties appeared to be enguged ut something on that night, and were uot together. Booth appointed cue and Harold to kill Johnson ; iu going down the street I told Booth we could not do it. Booth said Harold had more courage and lie would do it. Harold and I were on Penn ylvania avenue[togeth er. I told him I would uot and should not go to my room for fear he would disturb Mr. Johnson. Ho left me to go for Booth. This wus after 9 o’clock, I went to the Oyster Buy, and Harold came in and said Booth wanted to see mo. Harold left me here. I promised to get my horse and come. I was not at tbe Kirkwood House idler 2 o’clock. I have no recollection be ing there uftor that. I had Dothing to say at uny of the meetings. One of the attempts « anat the theatre; the gas was to be put out. Ac. Nodiscussiou was had about failure, and what to do iu thut case. The coil of rope at Lloyd’s was to stretl-h across the road to trip the cavuiry. I know nothing about Spangler’s rope; I believe him innocent. Booth told me'un actor wus to be the best assistant in the theatre to turn off" the gas. Arnold and O’Laughlin were to grab the President and take him off. and Booth said, when applied to for money, he would go to New York aud get some, us he had it there. Mrs. Surratt, Mrs. .Slater, Major Bauon and John Surratt left Washington together ; got horses at Howard’s. Mrs. Surratt stopped at Surrattsville. John Surratt and Mrs. Slater crossed, and Banon and Mrs. Surrutt came back. Banon was in the rebel urmv. J don’t think Banon knew anj’thing about the conspiracy. I sold a horse for Booth, and thought the affair was abuut over. The murder was broached first on the 14th, at night, when Harold came for me. I did hear Booth say Lincoln ought to be kilted. Singular Phenomenon on flic Ohio (liver —l.ltfhta Hovering ou the Water near Wrecked Steamer*, As the Memphis and Cincinnati Packet Company's steamer Minnenln was coming up ihe Ohio, last night, nl SA o’clock, when within n short distance of the spot where the recent collision occurred between the Mail Line steamers United States and. America, the watchman, Mr. Jacob Thorp, and the bar-keeper, Mr. John Mclluron, who were on the guards, together with Mr. Murphy, the steward of the,, boat, looking out lor the wreck, und desiring to see bow tiie place looked, were startled by a singu lar pale blue light, which rose slowly from out of the water to the.beight of several feet, and lusted about fifty seconds, when it dis appeared. The light itself was not very bright, yet they could distinctly see the out lines ot tho wreck, and on the hank for some distance. They were at first puzzled, but before a minute elapsed another light was seen to rise the same as the first. pilot wbo saw . also puzzled, and was •* hail,” and about tc third column ofligbt alongside, as several them, nod consulted as gszev. . .»'ou* dertnent at the spectacles, at the same time watching closely for any signs of men about the wreck, and faded to discover anycau.se for these phenomena; some became some what excited, anti one or two rather tern lied, as they were not much unlike the most “f the departed. The utticers who saw them uflirm positively, and we cannot doubt ibeir assertions, asserted earnestly as they are, that these lights, so singular, wouder ful aud unaccountable, exploded, or ex panded, after rising, and assumed human forms Every one on the boat was aroused, und great excitement prevailed. All went outou watch, but alter'pussing the wreck uo more was seen. Our Cold uud Silver Product. Tließound Table has mary of the doings of our gold and silver miiies during.the year 1865. The yield of placer mining has continued lo fall off, but the extraction of the metals from the quartz rock has been prosecuted with increased skill and success. The various new methods of breuking the rock which have been tried in Nevada und Colorado have been aban doned lbrthe old apparatus of stamps, which is not equaled iu effectiveness by any of the more recent devices. The stamps are used, however with greater care, a 9 the tiuer the stone is pulverized the more thoroughly its precious contents aregot out, In Nevada the most remarkable feature in tin* year’s operations is the decrease in the product of the Comstock )o< e, discovered in 1865, and hitherto so surprisingly valu able. Tbe deeper the rock is work ed in that lode, the poorer it is found to be. On the other hand, tbe White Pine district, in Nevada, has furnished silver to tno value of a million dollars duriug the last six months. In Idaho tbe profit of mining has been diminished by drought, while in California the business has suffer ed from too much rain. Iu all the new Territories the excessive cost of transporta tion and provisions has also checked the development of the mining interest; but after all, tbe yield ot 1868 may fairly be stated as follows: California S2O 000 000 Colorado 84,000 000 Nevada 18,000 000 Washington.... 1,000 000 Montana 12,000,00 U Arizona 250 000 Idaho 6,000.000 New Mexico.... 250.0..-0 Oregon 5,000,000 Total $66,500,000 It Is not too much to expect that chore gold and silver will be produced in this country in the present year than the year that has .just closed has been able to supply.

William Wade, the reputed chief of a gang of thieves, who, for some months past have committed numerous robberies in the upper townships of Montgomery county, was cleverly arrested the other day in New Hanover township. ITiIId Carried Off by an fiaglc. A child was captured by an eagle near Meigsville, Term,, ou Christmas Eve, and carried about two miles before it was res cued. He was a bright little fellow, just old enough to be learning to walk. When no one was in the house, he managed to roll out of his trundle-bed and crawl into the front yard. A great gray eagle came swoop ing down, and fastened ifs immense talons in the clothing of the little boy, then rose up with much ditlicully. and sailed off across the adjacent woods, jusiskimming the tops of the trees. Its course lay toward the Cum berland River. A servaut giri saw theeagle, aud gave chase. into the tangled wood, aud tried to keep a' straight liue, thinking the bird would do the same. The patch of wood was fully a mile and a half through ; but the girl made the run to the other edge of it without feeling fatigue. Beyond tin* wood, and between it und the Cumberland River, lay a patch, of cleared ground, partly marshy ami partly eorn lield, full of old stumps. When the girl left the wood, and had a clear view, she saw the eagle iu the air; beseemed inclined to alight with bis burden somewhere in the neighborhood of the river. This gave h»r new courage. It happened that there was a man hunting in the neighboring murshea, ami. just at the moment when the eagle reached the grouud with his bur den, a shot went off so dangerously near him that he mounted into the air again, but ibis time without the b'-y. The pursuing girl began a vigorous shouting as she ran. which attracted the hunter’s attention, who, seeing the eagle quite near him, and a lady rushing down tue slope with streamingbair and garments and wildly shouting, concluded at once that there was something strange, and per haps dreadful in his immediate vicinity; he also set up a vigorous hallooing, and proceeded to reload his gun. The eagle soon became aware of the formidable opposition he would meet if he attempted to recapture his prey, hovered over the spot a moment, and then wheeled around in one grand sweep across the river, and disappeared behind the shelving rock which forms the opposite bank. When the girl came down to the hunter, she fell stiff, and was not able even to indicate what was the matter. The rough gallant theu heard the scream of a child, and soon found a line, healthy, rosy boy, with torn clothes, but otherwise uninjured, endeavoring to rise upon his little ft/et* The tears streamed down his innocent cheeks, aud his face wore a irnjst piteous expression. The hunter took the baby in his arms and carried it to the gir!, who was now recovered. She clasped it to her bosom, covered it with kisses, and wept with joy. The parents in the mean time bud missed the little one, aud had become very uneasy. There was laughing and crying enough when the w’anderers return ed, and the wonderful voyage of the little fellow was explained. Coru Production of tbe States. Tbe Department of Agriculture furnishes estimates in detail of the corn crop of last year, as follows: Corn —We are unable to figure out the thousand millions of bushels promised by sanguine calculators. A handsome increase of 137,000,000 bushelß, if not all that could be desired at the present time, affords an aggregate of 67,000,000 bushels larger than in 1859, withoutinciudingtbe PacificStatea, which are unsuited to corn production ; but a decrease in proportion of the entire pro duction of an increase of sixteen per cent, in nine years—a good result though barely abreast with the increase of population. The following is tbe estimate of bushels: Maine, 1,590,000 ; New Hampshire, 1,500,000; Vermont, 1,672,(H)0 ; Massachusetts, 2,292,- 000; Rhode Island, 246,000; Connecticut, 2,152,000; New York, 20,910,000; New Jer sey, 10,216,000 i Pennsylvania, 31,979,000 ; Delaware, 2.275,000; Maryland, 340,000; Virginia, 19 969,000; North Car01ina,23,866,- 000; South Carolina, 9,870,000; Georgia, 27,- 294,000; Florida, 2,950,000; Alabama, 31,240,- 000; Mississippi, 35,519,000; Louisiana, 17,- 397,000; Texas, 21,337 000; Arkansas, 32,449,- 000 ; Tennessee, 54,772,000; West Virginia, 7.695.000; Kentucky, 58,187.000; Missouri, 60,967.000; Illinois, 134.363.000; Indiana, 90,- 832,000 s Ohio, 74,040,000; Michigan, 18,815,- 000; Wisconsin, 72 565,000; Minnesota, 8,- 255,000;‘10wa, 65,332,000; Kansas, 6,487.000; Nevada, 8,185,000; total, 805,178,000. “tfke will Save tbe Republican Party.” This inquiry of the Evening Post stands as tbe heading of an article de* nouncingthe dishonesty, extravagance and wrong headedness with which pub lio affairs have been managed by the party in power. The denunciation is most richly deserved; but when a party stands in need of B&lvation from moral rottenness, its days are numbered. That party must be overthrown as the only means of saving the country. The fol lowing paragraphs from the Post's arti cle are very instructive reading; not that they contain anything new, but because they show that a portion of the Republican party itself admits the truth of the charges made against it by Democrats. We quote: When a political party bas a great pre dominance, it is pretty sure to draw to itself the rogues, the unscrupulous, and the self seekers in the community. That is the dan ger of such an ascendency. A party may become the tool of corrupt men, because its leaders are careless and over-confident of their strength, and because tbe rogues and self-seekers are attracted to it from a desire to use it as their instrument. When aparty becomes corrupt, the people , , who endure for a while with that patience which short-sighted politicians are so sure to misunderstand , presently leave it and take up the other party, even if they run the risk of faring but little better by tbe change. It seems to many thoughtful friends of the Republican party that it isrunnlng just now a good deal of risk of such a popular desertion. It has amongst its leaders wise, prudent, und good men, but these are, in many cases, over-ridden by glib-tongued demagogues, by unscrupulous speculators, and by men 100 ignorant for these times, which demand at least a decent knowledge of political science in the legislator. Now that General Grant is elected and is presently to beinstaJled as President, it is time, iu the opinion of maDy good men, for the Republican party to look the future squarely iu the fuce, und to determine upon some policy which shall not be merely hand-to-mouth. The war is over. Appeals to loyalty will hardly answer in future elections. The country is safe, for four years to cotne at least, from those terrible Southerners; the universal suffrage cry will scarcely suffice to win the next Presi dential election; ami Graut haßhimselfau nouuced that policy which, in this case, as in some others, is undoubtedly tho best, namely : Honesty. If tbe Republican parly is to live, it must be tbe party of economy, the party of equal taxation, the party of lair play. Now, as to economy, look for a moment at some of the schemes which have been brought before the present Congress, and nil by Republi cans. * - i x # a Now this is an intolerable condition of things. 'The American people arenotso fool ish as to suffer it to continue long. They are without resentment, and the yare learning from such documents as Mr.' Wells’ report, and from the discussions in the press,,what is the cause of their sufferings. Suppose the Republican party goes on us it has gone so long? Suppose it puts off reform ; suf fers that combination of knavery and ignor ance which has made our tax system to tinker at it aud make it, if possible, yet •worse? What then? Does any Republi can politician imagine tho people to be so foolish us not to demand a change, and to seek it iu the only way in which the people can get it—-by a chauge of purties ? Who, then, will save the Republican party from destruction t Who will regain for it the confidence of the people? Who will uuite to impose upou it wise measures, and denounce us contrary to its objects and policy ail corruption, ult extravagance, all favoritism, all partial legislation? Unless tbe party hit}* leaders competent and cour ageous enough to do this, it is likely to be ruined, to fall into general disgrace before the adtnimstration of Grant is half over. At the close of another article noticiug Mr. Holtmau’s resolutions, offered day before yesterday in the House, the Post says: Mr. Holman’s resolutions were excellent. Both deserved to pass. But docs it notmake honest Republicans in the House blush, that on such an important matter as this they have left the initiative to a Democrat, and are obliged to tollow him ? What is theleader ship of the House worth, or what is the overwhelming majority good for, ii it is left for u Democrat to take the lead in move ments for retrenchment ? The Evening Post is.certainly correct in thinking that unless the Republican party mends its ways, and that right speedily, it will revolt and disgust all the honest men who beloDg to it, and drive them iuto the Democratic ranks. But voluntary reform by a corrupt po litical party which hasjust carried the elections, is a miracle uuheard of. This scandalous party will never reform it self. But in the next elections, the questions which are really obsolete will be acknowledged to have become so; and as soon as the dead past buries its dead, there will be a general stampede of honest men from the Republican ranks. sUs«llaiKous.

As the distance between the finished portion of the Union and Central FaclCc Rail roads Is now leas than 400 miles, and both com panies are pushing forward the work with great energy, employing over 30,< 00 men, there can be no doubt that the whole Will be .opou for Business In tho Sum- The regular Government Commissioners have pronounced the Union Pacific Railroad to be FIRST CLASS In every respect, and the Special Commission appointed by the Presi dent says: “Taken as a whole, THE UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD HAS BEEN WELL CONSTRUCT ED, AND THE GENERAL ROUTE FOR THE LINE EXCEEDINGLY WELL SELECTED. The energy and persevorance with which the work has been urged forward, and the rapidi ty with which It has been executed are with out parallel In history, and in grandeur and magnitude of undertaking It has never been equalled.” The Report states that any defi ciencies that exl-t are only t: »e Incident to all new roads, and that could not have been avoided without materially retarding tne pro gres of tho great work. Such deficiencies are supplied by all railroad companies after the completion of tho line, when and wherever experience shows them to be necessary. The report concludes by saying that “ the country has reason to congratulate itseli that the great work of national Importance is so rapidly ap proaching .completion under such favorable auspices.” The company now have in use 137 locomotives and nearly 2,000 cars of all de scriptions. A large additional equipment is ordered to be ready In the Spring. The grad ing nearly completed, and ties distributed for 120 miles in advance of the western end of the track. Fully 120 miles of lrou for new track are now delivered west of the Missouri River, and 90 miles more are en route. The total ex penditures for construction purposes in ad vance of the completed portloiTof the road Is not ess than eight million dollars. Besides a donation from the Government of 12,800 acres of land per mile, the Company Is entitled to a Bubsidy in U. S. Bonds oa lta Un« as completed and accepted, at the average rate of about 8 0,000 per mile, according to the dffi cultles encountered, for whlcn the Govern ment takes a second lien as security. The Company have already received $22,158,0C0 of this subsidy’, of whlcn was paid Dec. 6th. and S&10.000 Dec. 14th. Gorcrnment;Alil-.Securltj’’onue!Bonds, By Its charter, the Company is permitted to issue its own FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS to the same amount as the Government Bonds, and no more. These Bonds are a First gage upon the whole road and all its equip ments. Such a mortgage upon what, for a long time, will be the only railroad-connecting the Atlantic and PaolficBlates,'takes the highest rank as a safe security. The earnings from the way or local business jor tho year ending June 30,1868, on an average of 472 miles, were over FOUR MILLION DOLLARS, which, after pay ing all expenses, were much more than suffi cient to cover all Interest liability upon that distance, and the earnings for the last five months have been $2,386,870. They wonld have been greater, If the road had not been taxed to Its utmost capacity to transport its own mater ials for construction. The Income from the great passenger travel, the China freights, and the supplies for the new Rocky Mountain states and Territories must be ample for all Interest and otheMiablllttes. No political ac tion can reduce the rate of Interest. It must remain for thirty years— six-percent, per annum in geld, now equal to between eight and nine per cent. In currency. The principal is then payable in gold. If a bond with such guaran tees were issued by the Government, its mar ket price would not be less than from 20 to 25 percent, premium. As the bonds are Issued uudi r Governmentauthorlty andsupervlslon upon what Is very largely a Government work ti.ey must, ultimately approach Government prlc s. No other corporate bonds are made so secure. The price for the present Is PAR, and accrued Interest at 6 per cent, from July ], 1868, in cur- rency.
