JOHN H.SIFY HAT?• His Participation in the Assassina tion Piot...how Jie Explains His Visit to Canada and Elmira. The Washington correspondent - Of the Boston /len:ld save the following statement is the de fence vitt& Surratt and his friends set up in his behalf: "Surratt maintains, in the first place, that he had no band in, or intimation of, any plot for the assassination of President Lincoln, General Grant or any member of his Cabinet. He says nothing of his participation in a plot for the ab duction of the President, but as this is proven be yond a doubt, whatever he may say in that re gard cannot weigh against the positive evidence. 'Samuel Arnold,. one of the conspirators of the Dry Tortugas, - in a confession which he made (and now on file In-the War, Department) states that Surratt was pungent at a meeting u held in March, 1865, at which the abduction plot was virtually abandoned. From this time the friends of eurratt claim that he never appeared with the conspirators, but left for Richmond, h were he re ceived a special commission from the rebel Government to go to Canada, and thence to Elmira, New York. This commission related to the condition and treatment of rebel prisoners in the hands of this Government, and came from Jefferson Davis, through One of his subordinate oflicials—General R. C. Lee, a witness for the de fence on the late trial here. Surratt, bearing this commission, left Richmond in the last days of March, and arrived at Washington' on the mor ning of the 3d of April, the day on which the news of the fall of Richmond was received. He left the same afternoon for Montreal, Canada, and after conferring with the rebel officials in that city, started on the 12th of April for Elmira, N. Y., where he arrived on the afternoon of the 12th. He intended to make a drawing of the prisoners' depot at this niece, ob tain the number of prisoners there and the way in which they were treated, but abandoned the exe cution of his commission in this regard on hear ing of the surrender of Lee. He started back for Montreal, where he arrived on the 18th of April, and claims to have gone by the way of Canan daigua, Albany and Whitehall to New York, and via St. Albans, Vt., where he dropped his hand kerchief, as testified to, and where he first heard of the assassination of the President. From Mon treal, having seen the reward for his arrest, he went into the country and was 'concealed by a Catholic priest until September, when he em barked for Europe. The defence attempted to prove on the recent trial all of the details con templated in Surratt'a visit to Elmira, N. Y. bY this General E. C. Lee, but, the Court refused to receive the evidence. The prisoner further claims that the confessions of Payne and Atze rodt, on file in the War Department, show that he was not here on the day of the assassination, for neither of them mentioned his presence at the conference held during the day or at the meeting at the Herndon House, which took place about two hours before the assas sination, and at which time and place Atzerodt pretends that he first heard of the plot to murder, and from which he broke , away, and- in which pretension he is confirmed by the separate con fessions of Payne, made without possible col lusion with Atzerodt. This is Surratt's position. brief and simple, and fully susceptible of proof, he claims, if he is permitted to present the evidence. It is given, as stated in the opening, as his representation through his friends, and in that light it can be taken for what it is worth.', FROM NEW ItORK. NEW YORK,Aug. 20.—Coroner Gover'held an inquest yesteray at the Tontine Hotel, foot of Courtlandt street, over the remains of George W. Godfrey, who was employed as a clerk in the Herald office, and who committed suicide on Sunday night. It appears that deceased had been away from the office for several days, and. all search made for him was unavailing. On Sunday evening he called at the Tontine Hotel, registered his name as Geo. Anderson, and engagtal a room. He had • with him a small travelling? reticule. He retired to his room at an early hour; and; as he did not make his appearance at break fast yesterday morning his room was entered, and he was found dead in bed. The police were at once notified, and the room was placedin their charge. On opening the reticule, it was found to contain two bottles, both of which were label led "laudanum." One of the bottles was empty, but the other was partially filled. The sum of nine dollars was found in the reticule. Coroner Cover was notified and held the inquest. A post martens examination of the remains revealed the fact that death resulted from poison, and a verdict of "suicide" was rendered by the jury. It is stated that when deceased left the Herald office he had in his possession bank checks and money to a large amount which have not been accounted for. No further facts in regard to this money could be obtained, owing to the unusual reticence of those interested. A meteor of unusual beauty, formation and magnitude, was observed in the heavens at about five minutes past ten o'clock last night. The phenomenon appeared at an altitude of about twenty-five degrees above the horizon, one degree west of north, and was visible probably two seconds. The atmosphere was unusually clear in that quarter, and favorable for observation. The meteor appeared as a sphere of semi transparent yellowish fire, and after ac complishing about one-third of its flight a loud detonation was distinctly audible. The sphere instantly burst on its northerly verge, and assumed the shape of a fleecy crescent, the body still retaining its original color, and the edges displaying a bluish green or phosphorescent tinge. A star of great magnitude and dazzling brillialler then shot northward-from between the horns of the crescent with great velocity and suddenly dbiappeared, while the crescent faddd with a vapor-like rapidity. The phenomenon was witnessed by numbers of persons on the streets, many of whom expressed admiration at so novel a spectacle. In consequence of the wet weather of the past few weeks work on the elevated railway. in the lower portion of Greenwich street, has not been pushed ahead with that vi 'or which otherwise it would have received. Nearly all the baseS upon which are' to rest the upright columns or supports have been laid as far up as Liberty street. The next thing will be the adjust ment of the supports and the laying of the rails. This done, a few days will suffice to place the cars in running order. The track will not extend, for the present, beyond Courliandt street, it being the intention of the. Comnany to construct this portion of it simply as a matter of experiment. The time when this lower branch will be finished is not stated. On Saturday last, three youltg men called upon Owen Brennan, of No. 158 Front street, and pro cured from him a check for $2O 50 on the National Market Bank, saying that they desired to send It to Philadelphia. One of these men was Antonio Montenegro, a Cuban, employed by Francisco Liado & Co. at No. 135 Maiden lane. Yester day morning the check, altered to one for $5,000 t , e, was presented at the Market Bank, and refused by the paying teller, because the sum was a rather large one to be made payable to order. He, however, certified the check, and the men left. .Some little time afterward teller sent for Mr. Brennan, and learned from him that the check had been altered from the original. Search was made for Montenegro, and he was subsequently found by officer McWilliams, taken into custody. and, locked up at Police Headquarters. His accom plices are still ut large, with the certified check in their possession. The Commissioners for building the new Har lem Bridge promise that it shall be completed . and thrown open for public use within thirty days. , The report of the explosion and loss of the stcumtue Addle turns out to be untrue. One thousand eight hundred and eleven immi grants arrived here yesterday. Detective Barker. of the Fifteenth Precinct, ar rested a man named Dan Noble, on a waraut is sued by Justice Hogan, on Sunday afternoon, at Elmira. N.

The re ports of the president and secretary strongly ad .riFed a central station of power. unity. of effort, the establishment of a union daily newspaper and the education of the colored people to the point wl.erc they will not compete injuriously with white workmen. Apart from th reports nothing of interest was done, the smallness of the attendance being rather a damper upon. the Con vention. -GI4N. SHERIDAN'S TIII‘NOUT.—The Now Or leans Times thus nails n falsehood - no W -on its travels throughout the country: "The following fancy sketch of General Sheri dan's turnout in this city appears in the New Or leans correspondence of the St. Louis Republi can. It is ridiculously untrue. Gen. Sheridan, however deficient he may be in statesmanship, is at least a soldr, and no court fop. Ile does not trot himself o ie ut us a show, like the spotted horse In the circus. If he has ambition at all, which is scarcely 'to be doubted, he carries it under a modest mask. Thus does the correspondent of the Republican MunchauseukcL "The state carting_ .. 2 ,.eWlatidnu, a coverall carriage which opens at the top, so as to give an unobstructed view of the inmates. Therein sits the General, surrounded by select members of his staff, he and they bedecked all over with gold lace, with gold buttons, and other ornamenta tion. To this vehicle are attached six horses, and these are caparisoned with the most elaborately ornamented harness. All this Is finished off with a grand display of long white plumes, tipped with red feathers, which are fastened to the horses' heads in such fashion as to cause them to undu late all the graceful mazes of poetic emotion. .The cortege is completed by a4rain of outriders and guards, consisting of two regiments of mounted troops, who, on such occasions, appear in their best bib and tucker." CITY NOTICES. TnE fact that the .Commissioner of Internal Revenue has exempted front all tax the plan adopted by the Washington Library Company for the raising of funds for the endowment of the Riverside Institute; also that Messrs. George A. Cooke & Co., the well known Bankers, No. 83 South Third street, have con sented to act as receivers of the moneys thus raised, to gether with the names of those well 'mown and promi nent citizens who have astiociated themselves with the Institute, and have consented to act as its Trustees, should certainly be a sufficient guarantee to the public that every pledge and Promise will be carried out to the letter. The method adopted for the endowment of this much needed institution is one by which every individual actually receives more than could be ob tained with the same amount of money if expended in the ordinary 'way. In the distribution of presents every one stands an equal chance, one present being guaranteed for each share of stock.
