struck, through mistake, by another. Im
mediately the cry of " Copperhead " was
rained; and- an excited crowd became wild
in their efforts to kill him, under the ice-
ression he had said something disrespect
' !al of Mr. Lincoln. Fortunately an oft
' car wag pressni,..the local telegraph was
tet to work, the police came, and by al
most super-hum in - efforts the man's life
was saved, though his person was seriously
injured. It turned out, on inquiry, that
Le was a'warm friend of Mr. Lincoln, had
voted for him is 1860 and 1864, and deep

Two Slanderers get 'their botrinna*
It will be recollected that immediately
after the - reception of General Sherman's
treaty with Johnson, at Washington, Sea
rotary Stanton, in his usual impetous and
ill considered manner, issued a bulletin
severely reflecting on the former officer.
General Halleck commanding the De•
partment at Richmond, with his custom•
cry seal to toady to the Secretary of War,
followed with a dispatch adding insult
upon the brave and able officer whose
deeds of heroism have made him the idol
of his soldiers and the pnde of the noun-.
try. The sequel is contained in a spicy
correspondence between Sherman and
Halleok, on the occasion of the passage
of the former's army through Richmond,
the substance of which is thus given by
a correspondent of the New York ikra4l:
• Ai you will be in Richmond ha a few

Say measures of defeat*, a desperado with re
volver in heed presented himself it each door
of the several Gan, backed by one or two
companions of the lame character. The order
was given, " Bob every d—d man, but don't
hurt the ladies ;" and while one kept guard at
leek demobs others proceeded through the
train sad made every man " stand and della
a." Pocket-hooks, watches, chains and
jewelry changed hands rapidly. But few of
the whole number were shrewd enough to save
anything. A soldier, returning home, was
robbed of $BOO, and although he begged bard
to be permitted' to 'retain a portion of the
money, the viltians took ali. Another indi
vidual was relieved of a.gold watch and five
1 hundred dollars in greenbacks. - Still another
lost two hundred dollars, besides a watch and
Valuable breastpin. This condtictor, Mr. Shop
hard, had forty dollars .aken from him ; but,
I by cutting the lining of his coat-pocket, and
allowing the contents to drop into the skirt,
' succeeded in saving $320. The engineer like
wise lost a valuable watch. We are unable
to give any statement of the aggregate loss
of passeagerd, but it was considerable.
While the passengers were being robbed In
this way, five of the gang plundered the ex
press
car. The party, with the aid of an axe,
soon out their way into the oar, and drew out
the money safes, three in number. The
amount of money lcat - by the Espana cannot
be accurately stated, but it was not very
large. There were, however, $BO,OOO worth
of 7.80 United States Bonds abstracted from
one of the safes and carried off. The only
object of the ruffians seemed to be plunder.
The general question of re-construoting the
revolted States, and the reorganization of
their political and commercial ',interests, a
oemespondeat of the Tribune says, are under
stood to have been the subject mitten of dis
melon at a Cabinet meeting hug week. The
President is fully. committed to the principle
that, a full sad free revival of commerelal
business between the North and South, with
as few embarrassments and restrictions as
possible, will prove the surest and speediest
bond of unity and friendship between the lie
lions. There is understood to be no opposi
tion-to the President's convictions on these
points, but the lengthy discussions are had
with a view to arriving at the best modes sad,
terms it may be possible to inaugarate ooa
sistent with the laws of Congress.
The totaldebt of the United States at, the
•
close of the present Semi year, on die, 80th
of lan*, is estimated at $8.00,000,000- ' ' This
includes the debt of every iosslble kind, as
well that which is ascertainetl, as thatjthlak
consists of unpr.eented claims. This aka, is
its principal, represents 15 per cent. of the
present wealth,of the loyal States, and $96 611
per had of their population. The annual La-,
' 'forest oa the public debt after 1887, when
that debt will all bear interest, will be 6.166,e
000,000. The same amount will continue an
nually to be paid until 1881.
The eziontive order of the President, pat—
ting in operation the saspanded functions et
the National Government in the Stets of Vir.
ginia, was substantially agreed upon at the
butt cabinet meeting held by President Lin
coln on the day of his death, and of which
Gen. Grant was present. The great futures
are that the Stet* of Virginia is not noels
nisedu ever having gone out of the Union;
that the (auctions of the United States Gov
oranuentwere simply suspended within her
borders, and are now• put in operation again;
that no vestiges of Confederate or rebel State
government are recognized ? and that Governor
Pirrpont and the loyal Legislature of Virginia
is made the nucleus of the organized Stat a
government.
A special dispatch to the New York News
says a change in the Cabinet undoubtedly
will soon take place, as a conflict is ittevita—

The Montreal papers give anotbe r biter
from Nene N. Saunders, addressed to the
