JifTbe trial of Surratt wm concluded on Wednesday. The closing speech by Judge Pitrrcpont was en able argument, and scattered to thu wind tlio sophistry of Sur ratt' counsel, who not only endeavored to establish the innocence of John Surratt, but also of bis mother. tT The Chop prospects in Europe are fully as bright us our own. The English papers think the crops of England will be unusually prolific. A large crop has been plantud and sown in Frnnce and Germany, und there is now the largest stock of flour on hand in Paris ever known. The wheat growing regions of the Baltic will, it is bo lieved, be ablu to export two million quar ters this year. fjf Tho fuct that President Johnson in tended to force Secretary Stanton to resign from tho War Office has often been stated. On Monday lie wroto a note to Mr. Stanton, as follows : "Considerations of public iutcr ost will persuade mo to accept your resigna tion, if tendered." Mr. Stanton replied in the following manner : "Considerations of public interst have prevailed with me to hold this office for months past, and consid. crations of public interest will prevail with me to hold it till the assembling of Congress.'' Secretary Stanton deserves tho gratitude of tho nation in maintaining his position uud guarding the rights of the people, iu gpito of the President and his renegade Cabinet. Without Stanton there would be but little brains or patriotism left in the Cabinet. i . The grand duko Alexis, of Russia, is com ing to study liberty in America. Philadd 2'lu'a Inquirer. A pretty place to come to for such a pur pose! Why there is more liberty to-day in cold, bleak Siberia, the penal colony of the creat Kusslan Empire, than there is in the Southern States of our unhappy and dis tracted land. America was once the "land of the free," but not now. That was when the Constitution was supreme, when respect was shown to the Chief Magistrate, and when tho Jacobins who now ruicwere in obscurity. Liberty in America, lorsooth 1 Why the "Satraps" ic the Southern States can wield and do exercise more despotio power than the Czar cf Kussia ; and liberty in the North is but a mere thins of the past. "Study liberty in America t" What a bitter mockery I We copy the above from tho Reading Oa- tette, to show what shifts and subterfuges even intelligent men retort to, for political effect. The editor of the Oaielte is a member of Congress from Old Berks, and is an Intel ligent man. We would not insult friend Octz by saying he was sincere in uttering the above rhapsody. Ho knows well that in no other country in the world could such arrant traitors as Jeff. Davis and his followers have escaped the gibbet which they so richly do served. The government not only restored to these ingrates their lives and liberty, but their property. Tho Emperor of Russia would have executed or banished every lead ing rebel. The Union Faciflo Railroad Open 425 Miles. A few weeks since wo noticed the open' inz of the Union Pacific Railroad to Jules burg, 877 miles west of Omaha, and some time this week we expect to report its com pletion to Crow Creek, a point 48 miles fur ther west, making a total of 425 mile3. Fif ty miles of track in addition are graded, ready for tho iron, and there is no doubt of the completion of the road to the base of the Rocky Mountains early in the Fall. The Com pauy are contldeut that the whole line to the Pacific will bo open for business in 1870. Tho Indians have annoyed the sur veying parties and tie-cutters, who are many hundred miles in advance of the work ; but they have a wholctomc fear of the popula tion that a railroad carries with it, und all trains run without interruption. The business of the company has becu most flattcrintr. The earninc. for thequar tor ending August 1st, were 1700,000; but us the report for the lust week in July has . . i -1 . e .! . not been rcceiveu, tus exuui uuuuuu uuuui be given. Theso earnings accrued from op erating au average of not more than 350 miles of road, and after deducting operatiug i:penses, the balance is far iu excess of the ' iuterest obligations of tho Company no the amount of bonds they can issue on that dis tance. It should be remembered that this result is from vny business alone, through a uuw country; jtnd is not to be compared with the vast through business that must follow the opening of tho whole liue to the Pacific. The success of the enterprise seems to bo thoroughly assured, and we cun Bee no reason why the First Mortgugo Bonds are not entitled to rank among the best se curities. The daily sales are now so large, that the Company already entertain the idea of advancing the price. At Hudson.

When, if ever, were Von upon the staff of Andrew Johnson, then Uovernor or len- licence, nud in what capacity t A. As a temporary aid trom tno lotn oi August, 18C4, to the 12th of November, 1804. Q. State whether you resided in his fumil y, and how intimate you were with him f A. I did not reside in Irs tnmily; I boarded in a hotel at Nashville, Tennessee, but dur ing tho political campaign of 1804 I accom panied him from Nashville on his tour through Indiana and up to his return to Nashville : we got back November 10 ': dur ing that time I occupied the same room with Governor Johnson, and wrote his private despatches and letters; Browning, his private secretary, was also with him, hut - the most of the time was not able to do business from illness. Q. While at Nashville did you know person by tho name of Mrs. ? A. I did : the widow of a Confederate officer ; her husband was reported killed, in the cany part or the rebellion. IJ. ricasc describe the woman. A. She is little over medium height, be tween 40 and 50 years of nge ; she has a married daughter ; Is ot rather light com plexion, light auburn hair, blue eyes, and has finely developed form. Q. What, if any, terms of intimacy existed between the woman and Governor Johnson! A. I left Nashville on the 20th day of December ; during the timo I was there this woman bad the entree ot tho White House at all times ; she had obtained permits to trade iu the army of the Cumberland for her son-in-law : I saw letters in the handwriting of Gov. Johnson's aid. signed by him, which she brought out from his office, recommend mg her son-in-law to President Lincoln and to secretary Stanton one to eaca recom mendjnir her son-in-law for a position in Savannah to take supplies to Savannah after we heard of the capture of that place by Sherman ; I asked her as sho camo out of tho office if she bad got the documents sue wanted, and sho showed them to me. Her .intimacy with and calls upon Uovernor Johnson were matters or common notoriety and scandal in Nashville ; ber son-in-law afterwards remarked to me, that the old woman could twist Andy Johuson round her fincrer lust as she pleased, Q. What was this woman's reputation for chastity in Nashville at the time ? A. She was known as a woman who re tailed her virtue for money (. How well known was this reputation ? A. In July, 1863, when I was on duty in Nashville as lieutenant, General RoBccrans issued an order that all the bad women should be sent out of tho city, and I was ordered by Captain Ed. M. Hulbust, assistant provost marshal and chief of military police, of the 18th Michigan infantry, to assist in the execution of this order. In the perfor mance of this duty I first heard of this wo man, and learned from all the fust people and fast women with whom I was brought in contact of her character, which was so bad I determined to havo her arrested at all hazards ; but she had suddenly disappeared. Upon making inquiries for her, I was in formed by several people, and especially by Joe Cheatham, a detective, that I had bet ter let that woman alone, or I should get myself into trouble, as she was Andy John son's woman. Accordingly I ceased the pursuit. Afterward I saw this same woman at the capitol (Tenn.) as I before stated. Q. Wero you present in Washington in the winter of 18G5, when Andrew Johneon arrived in Washington ? A. I was, and roomed at 442 Thirteenth street, and boarded at the Kirkwood House. Q. How soon after President Johnson ar rived in Washington did you see him ! A. President Johnson arrived in the even ing, and I called on him tho next afternoon iu his room, I think No. 182, at tho Metro politan Hotel. Q. State, if you know, whether that wo man ( ) came with him. A. Sho came, as I am informed by Lieu tenant Kennedy Long, then and now on President Johnson's staff, on tho same truin from Nashville with President Johnsou. Q. At what hotel did she put up, what room did she occupy, aud did you see tier there t A. She put up at the Metropolitan Hotel, and occupied, I think, the next room to President Johnson ; I saw her in President ihuson's room that afternoon when I call ed ; sho came in after I called ; she walked ill without knocking, und 1 lei t. u. now long utter this occurrence before you were iu President Johnson's room t At what tune of tho day, aud on what errant 1 A.

I did call on him at Mr. Hooper's house, I think on the night of the 0th of May, ibuo unday evening; in tho course of tho conversation I remarked : "Governor, you look tired ; being President is hard work and small thanks, isn't it ?" Ho replied j "les ; particularly when a mnn is Idled into it on another man's coat tail." He stopped a moment, as if in thought, and continued The man'wbo nets the SlcClellan vote, with the anti-nccro suffrage vote of tho Henubli can party, will get tho Southern vote, and that will elect the next President."

TIIU HL'HIIATT VAHK. The ICxcvntlon ol'ffln. Sarrait. Important Statement Jle.latir4 to- Signing Her Death- Warrant. Washington, D. C, August 4.-Ex- Judge Picrrcpont yesterday, in his argument to the jury in the surratt case, made an impor tant statemoct, which he verified by pro ducing the original record relutive to tho execution of Airs. Surratt. gjt has been charged, it will be remembered, that tho order for Mrs. Surratt's execution was hand ed to the President by a member of the Cabinet and that it wot signed without consultation. Tho following verbatim ex tract from Judge Picrrcpont's speech tells the story, lie said : "I have not come here for the purpose or proving that Mrs. Surratt was guilty, or that she was innocent, and I do not under stand why that subject was lugged into this case in tho mode that it has been. Nor do I understand why the counsel denounced the military commission that tried her, and thus indirectly censured in tho severest manner tho President of the United States The counsel certainly knew when they were. Ulking about that tribunal, and when they were thus denouncing it, that President Johnson ordered with his own hand that commission ; that the President signed tho warrant that directed thu execution; thnt President Johnson, when that record was brought before him, brought it before his Cabinet, and that they Voted to confirm the sentence, and that tho President with his own hand wrote his confirmation of it, and with his own hand signed tho warrant. I hold in my hand the original record, and no other man, rs it appears from that paper, .ordered it. No other ono touched this paper, and when it was suggested by some of the members ot thu commission that in consequence of the ugo and tho sex of Mrs. Surrat, it might possible be right to change her sentence to imprisonment for life, ho signed the' warrant for her death with the paper right bctoro his eyes, and there it is." Handing the paper to'Mr. Merrich. "My friend can read it for himself." Sir. Jolmsoti and Kcvrctni-y jiuu Ion. Washington Aug. 0, 18C7. The President yesterday wroto Sccretnry Stanton a formal letter in which he stated that he desired to secure harmony in the Administration., and that as the views of the Secretary of Wur wero not in accordance with those of the Executive and tho re mainder of tho Cabinet, his resignation would be acceptable. 'This was delivered to Secretary Stanton, in person by Colonel Moore, tho President's Private Secretary. Soon thereafter Mr. Stanton left tho War Department, und at this writing hud not since discharged his officiul duties. He omitted to-day to attend the usual Cabinet meeting, and baa received but few visitors nt his residence. It was generally supposed that he was preparing n letter complying with tho request of the President, by tendering his resignation unit setting torth his views in the premises. However, at nine o'clock this evening the President had received no reply. From this fuct it is to be hoped that Mr. Stanton has deter- mided to remain ut his post and disappoint the malignants so anxious for his resigna tion. LATER. Ill P. M. It is now ascertained that Secretary Stanton lias replied to Mr. John son's request that, for good reasons, ho will not surrender bis portfolio, but wilt remaiu in his position until tho reassembling of Congress. This resolution of the SecreUry of War has given tho greatest satisfaction to the friends of thu Union, us it evinces a disposition on his -part to stand firm iu op position to the muchinutions ot those who are disposed to aid and abet the rebels iu opposition to reconstruction. It is lurlher learned that the rre.sulent does not hold to the views imputed to him in certain journals, that he can now remove Mr. Stuntou on the ground that the Civil Tenure act docs not apply to uppoiutecs not made by himself.

The Government grant of over twen ty million acres of lnud and filly million dollars in its own bonds practically guarantees it. Ono fourth of the work is already done, and the track continues to be laid at tne rnto ot iwo nilloa a day. 2d. The Union Paoific ltailroad bonds are issued upon what promises to bo one of the moat profiiabt lines of railroad in the country. For many yeara it must be the only lino connecting the Atlantic and Pacific ; and being without competition, it can maintuin remunerative ratea. ad. 426 miles of this road are finbhed, and fully equipped wan depots, locomotives, cars, Ac, and two trains are daily running each way. The mate rials tor the remaining V2 miles to tho eastern base of tho Hot ky .Mountains are on hand, and it is under contract to be dune in September. 41b. Tho net earnings of tho sections already fin lhed are several times greater than the gold interest upon the First Morrirai'e ltondi upon such sections. aud if not another mile of tho road were built, tho part already completed would not ouly pay interest und cxpenseSj but be profitable to the Company. ith Tho Lniun PitoiUc Kiiilrood bonds can bo is sued only as the ro:ul pmgrcae, and therefore can never bo in the market uujesj they represent a 6ou Ji.r property. (1th. Their amount is strictly limited by law to a sum equal to what is granted ly tho V. 6. Govern ment, and for which it takes a second lien as its se curity. This ainuunt upon the fin-t 617 wiles west from Omaha is only $111,0110 per inilo. 7th. The fact that the U. S. Government coiit-idcrs a second lien upon the road a good invit-tment, und that somo of the shrewdest railroad builders of the country have already paid in live million dollars upon the slock (which is to tbem a third lieu), may well inspire confidence in a first lien, Hill. Although it is notclaimud Ibat there can bo any better securitiea than Governments, there are parties who consider a first mortgage upon such a property aa this the very best security iu tho world, aud who sell their Governments to re-invest in these bonds thus securing a greater interest. Uth. As tho I'nion Pacifiu Kuilrond bonds aro of fered lor the present at 90 cents on the dollar aud ac crued interest, they are the cheapest security in the I market, boing more than 15 per cent, less ttiun U. . Stocks. loth. At the current rato of premium on gold, they pay Over ."Ine Ier Cent.
