To the Aid Societies in Tioga County auxiliary to the Sanitary Commission- - Under date of May Btb, and in reply to a query as to the proper work, on the present and prospective state of our Army, Mrs. Grier writes : - “ I think it will be best for you to expend your la bor upon articles of food. Dried fruits, bacon, dried beef, eggs, butter, vegetables. Send second hand clothing. The breaking up of the Army will throw many thousands of men upon the country who’ mutt be-eated for, for some months by the Sanitary Com -mission. Our Lodges* will be crowded.

The New York Times gives the following des criptions of the most prominent of the.assas sins: - The stranger visitor is naturally . curious to tee and contemplate the countenance 1 of the prisoners, and bis eye rapidly pass from all other objects in search of the accused. There sits a row of fifteen men against the west wall, on'the platform behind the railing. Which is Payne? Which is Harrold? the visitor rapidly aeks himself, and be mentally answers as rapid ly ; Surely’Payne cannot be there; I see no’ one that answers his description. That than may be Harrold; the'other man may be Dr'. Mudd, but I don't see any snoh man as the would be-assassin of Seward is represented to be. . You begin with the man on the extreme left, and next to the door - leading to the cells, i Here is a'men apparently about 41 or 42 years old, say five'feet tea inches In height, slender, red or saody-hair of thin growth, pole oval face, somewhat intelligent, medium size, blue eyes, high forehead, rather prominent ' nose, thin lips, and a red tuft of hair on the chin. He dues not seem to be distressed,.but- is interes ted 1 in the trial. He is dressed genteely in black, and wears slippers. - The movements of his limbs are somewhat restricted, for a small chain surrounds each wrist and extends from (inn to arm, and a like chain is about his an kles and confines bis legs. This man is Dr. Mudd, agkinst whom it was at first supposed but tittle if anything of guilt could b® shptvn, but against whom the testimony is now fear fidtypointingr 7 Yon look faritsfrtpthe right, passing 6ver THE TIOGA COUNTY/ AGITATO®. f' the alternate man, who ia.an officer, and you, observe/Sitting'beside the latter, a little' fellow' dressed in a faded blue suit, whom you would ■* ish, weak, boyish, confiding countenance, indi cating but little intelligence and nut the faintest trace of ferocity. And this is the poor creature , who seemed to live but in the smile of the assassin, who devotedly followed him in bis flight sharing his privations, perils and captdre. This boy is Harrold. Looking again to the right, and omitting the alternate guard, we come to one-of the 1 most remarkable faces in tbe ‘group; a face which once seen, may never be forgotten ; one whose moral status, is readily determined by making a survey of bis face. This man is clothed spar ingly ; he is in his shirt sleeves-ra sort of steel mixed woolen shirt; neckband and shirt collar unbuttoned ; he is fully six feet high, slender, bony, angular form, square and .narrow.across the shoulders, hollow breasted ; bait-black, straight, irregularly out, and banging indiffer ently about his fotebead, which is rather low. and narrow ; bine eyes, large, staring and at times wild; r’eturns your look steadily and significantly; square face, angular hose',, thin at| the top, but expanding abruptly at the nos trils ; thin lips and slightly twisted mouth, curved nnsymmetrioally a litle to, the left of the middle line of the face ; a wild, savage looking man, bearing no scintilla of culture or re finement—tbe most perfect type of the ingrain, bardeued criminal. The reader who has read newspaper descriptions of this man will not guess his name—the very opposite of my pic ture is that which has beengiven-to tbe public, add yet this is a truthful pehlikehess and just estimate of Lewis Payne, who has been repre sented in appearance as almost the reverse of what I have here stated. Those who look upon the criminal will, agree .with me that he isalmost monstrum homendum. ' Again to the right of this man is one whom it would appear from the testimony thus far educed, was to have performed a very important apt in the pint. Arzerot is pointed : out as the person to-whom was intrusted the assassination of President Johnson in the Kirkwood House.■_ criminal ig a man of small stature, Dutch fape. sallow complexion, dull, dark, bine eye, rather light colored hair, bushy and neglected--; lopks rather unconcernedly on, and at no time evinces a high sensibility of bis almost inevit able doom. Another-and the last and most'prominent of the accused is Mrs Surratt, who aits apart from the other prisoners, at the west end of the re porters, table, and near her counsel. This wpman is dressed in full-mourning; she wears her veil and bonnet during the sessions of the commissions. Her age is probably fifty. She is, a large Amazonian class of woman square built, masculine hands, rather ■ full face, dark complexion, swarthy'; altogether her face de notes more than ordinary intelligence. She seems too strong to be weighed down by the crashing testimony against her and whilst conclusive evidence was being rendered, which if true, makes her part in the horrible tragedy of the most cold-blooded, heartless character she seemed bat once • disturebd- Her eye ■is rather soft in expression and strangely at vari ance with the general Harshness of her other feature-. She seems a woman of undaunted metal, and fitted for Macbeth's injunction to •‘[bringforth men children only and yet she does not appear as Lady Macbeth prayed to be, ‘from crown to toe top full of direst cruelty.” This misfortunate, woman like the rest of the prisoners, is in irons. A bar.of about ten iriches in length passes from one ankle to the other, and is |here attached to an iron band that encircles each leg- Her hands arc free. Death of Bresop Decancet.’ —The Eight Rev.
