"Ti amo," rll 3, 14. Friday the
Ides. Until t od ay nothing was ever
thought of satrificing to our country's
wrongs. For silt months we had work
ed to capture. 'nut our cause being al
most lost, something decisive and great
must be done. But its failure was ow
ing to others, who did not - strike for
their country With a, heart.
I' struck boldlyi and not as the papers
say. I walked with a firm step,through
a thousand of his friends, and was
stopptd, but pushed in. A colonel was
athis aide. I - shouted '"Sic Semper"
before I fired; .14 jumping broke my
leg, I passed all his pickets, rode sixty
miles that night with the bone of my.
. leg tearing the &eh at every jump. I
can repent it, though we hated to
kill. Our country owed all her troub
les to him, and God simply Made' me
the instrunaexitac his punishment.

Report of the Judge Advocate Gener
al, Bureau of Military Jlistice, May 14,
1867. Respectfully returned, with the
Copy asked for. The "diary" purpqrts
to be one for 1864, and the leaves(cut or
. torn from it probably contained ntries
'of that year, and were thus destroyed
by-Booth himself. It is absolutely cer
tain that the diary is in all respects as
it was when it came into my hands;
and Colonel Conger, who was promi
nent in the pursuitand captureof,llooth,
after having carefully examined it in
my presence on yesterday, declared its
condition to be now precisely the same
as when he took it from Booth's body
after he had been shot, the writing in
it being the same, and all which it then
•
contained.
Conger was examined before the Ju
diciary Committee of the House of
Representatives to-day. -

A YOTSNG Lint SLEEPS, TWELVE
YE, Rs.—Some eight miles from Hick
_ man, says the Hickman (Ky.) Courier,
there exists a young lady who presents
the most wonderful case of coma or pre
.- ternatural•disposition to sleep, of which
we have ever known or hear g. When
about twelve years old she *as' taken
with a severe chill, and.treated by her
physicianstaccordiney. °As her .fever
which followed the chill snbsided, she
fell into a deep sleep, iu which condi
tion she has remained ever since,,,ex
cept at intervals. She awakes regular
ly twicecin every twenty-four hours, at
which time nourishment is given her,
and it is a most singular fact that' she
always awakes within a few minutes of
the same hours every day. She will
remain awa e and perfectly conscious
five, ten,-or erhapslifteenminutes, and
• then grade a ly drop off to sleep again.
When asleep it is utterly impossible: to
arouse her. She is now twenty-four
'years old, and has consequently.heenln
this comatose condition a period of
Wave years. When awake she does
'not appear. to suffer, except from a
`drow&y, gaping inclination, and a per
sistent effort to cleanse her throat of
phleghm. She iif,of ordinary size, and
her limbs and -muscles well propor
tioned and develled, She has • grown
coneiddrably sine, her affliction. Her
name is Mary Go4sy, and her mother is
a very poor widow lady, dependent
upon the charity of neighbors and visi
tors for a support. She has been visited
.since her affliction by many eminent
physicians, but her condition defies all
medical skill.
REPUBLICAN VI CT ORIEL—Fort

We co'ngratulate the proprietors of,
the Pittsburg Gazettee upon the pros
perous condition of that paper, it hav
ing been enlarged to a nine-column pa
per during the week. It is one of
,the
very ablest journals in the North, and
deserv.es a generous patronage.
We assure our neighbo of the Brad
ford Argus that we di'd iet do' ourself
the honor to visit any qanctum editorial
on the occasion of the visit to Towanda
briefly mentioned last week. Next time
we shall 'endeiwor to see all the ma-
Chinery in motion in that enterprising
village. ' •
The trial of John H. Suratt has i3eeu
postponed to the 10tir inst. , impertant
witnesses being absent. We hope the
trial may go on. If Suratt .is guilty he
deserves punishment. If hinoCent - he
deserves an honorable discharge. There
is little probability of his being convict-,
ed, or if convicted, of his execution.—
There has been enough of shuffling.
PE.EIEIUMB 111 R DIPOSSIBILITIEB.
,AVe make no qmiplaint of the effort
tto reform the mijior politics of the coun
y. It needs information. It , would
gratify us to know that none but the
very best men were to be preferred for
office hereafter: -_Best men,' however,
will not always be preferred. It would
aflbrd us very great satisfaction to
learn that men of worth 'and decency
could serve a term in any office and re
tire no worse for the service, in morals,
and not unduly better in pocket. The
rule, however, is, that he *ho handles
hot iron will burn his fingets.
The premium s offered by the Loyal
League, of Philadelphia, for the best
,plan .for nominating candidates for
place, will doubtless set ninny busy
minds at work. We hope somebody
may , not only get the pretnium, but
give us some better plan ilian . that now
in use. Several plans suggest them
selves to Its, hither
. of },which would
work capitally in al community of an
gelic men. Given a community of . men
without selfish ambitions, without lrr
esistibleimpulses to self-aggrandizement,
with no plans and purposes incompati
ble with the greatest good to the great
est number, given such a community,
and how delightful a taskit would be
to inaugurate the era when none but
good men should be nominated, and
consequently, nonettlf kood men elect
ed.
The Convention systetki is faulty and
abusive. We admit that. But if a
nominating Convention is faulty, a
Constitutional ConVeiftion is not less
faulty. Yet how do 4 you propose to al
ter, /atend, or abolish organic laws
without a popular ',convention? When
me@ essay public business they natu
rally enough begin /systematically.—
Order, concert of actin, `>•Wieldliness"
are absolutely necessl y t'o the tranact
ion of business. Row are these to be
secured?.
They*ean only be secured by a tempo
rary waiver of rights on the part of 'the
masses. Two thousand men cannot de
liberate successfully; so, then ; two thous
and men - select six (more, or less) men
to speak and act for them. Dd the op-
onents of Conventions consider that
„ . .
the system lies at the. very foundation
of ow. Government? Congress is but a
Convention of the Representatives of
the people. The necessity for some
such method of transacting the busi
ness of thirty millions is apparent.
Mr. Greeley, -as usual, has a” plan for
sending the pres4nt system of nomina
tions to the shades. He would eloct
fewer officers l and appoint more. Ad
would discard the machinery of " Regu-
lar Nominations," and, call by _requisi
tion upon fit men to stand as candidates.
All of which is very pleasant theory.
To appoint more - officers Is/ only to
change the form . of the current system,
not the effect. If the appOinting " powers
that be are purer than the people we
have yet to learn it. And if nomina
tion by requisition be substituted for
Regular Itorninations, how long will it
be before some . modest aspirant will pay
ten dollars a head for signers to a requi
sition ftglli consent to run for some
office ? The strife then will be to get the
most signers, just as it now is to get the
most men out to primary elections.—
Besides this disability there is another
not ess serious; Twenty men of weight
and influence 'want an ax ground, and
nineteen of them sign a requisition up
on thei l twentieth for his service aga: can
didate.li -.What is the difference, prays?
No, gen t tlemen reformers'of our politi
cal machinery, this will not do. You
must so educate the people that hum
bugs cannot cheat them. So o Lnl .
as
de.
men arc easily tWtered, so I -- 1
ill
there be unfit nominations an is
graceful elections. We cannot escape
theyenaltiesof ignorance and misedu
cation by any plan to be devised, which
plan does net include the primary, en-
lightinent of the masses. There is not
a vast deal of poetry about political ma
chinery. If' there were, the " requisi
tion" plan-might work for a time, But
bad ambition has made politics a dirty
trade. Unscrupulous men desire office,
yid do not stick at the intermediate
steps.' So long as the people can be
wooledlay smooth talk, you may devise
as ninny plans as there are stars in the
skies, and none of them will reform
Preliminary political work.
And yet, 'we 13 hall look for good to
grow out of the strife likely to ensue for
the premium.
Attorney-General Stab bery has pro
nounced "an authoritative opiniOn of the
scope and bearing tof the Reconstruc
tion Act passed by the last Congress.
The Registration Law is declared invi
olable, and the disfranchisement of of T
tiaras of the -Qotifederacy proper, and
of voluntary .niders-and abettors of the
Rebellion is. confirmed. He decides
that merepunicipal officers do not fail
under the disfranchising clause of the
Act. This narrow§ down the - class of
disfranchised persons materially, and
inekefs the test oath the chief bar to the
abuse of the elective franchise in the re
bellious districts. The several military
commanders in those districts will car
ry out the law in accordance with the
spirit of this opinion of the Attorney
General.
Perhaps this is as favorable au opin
ion as the country had a reason to look
for. llt does something to strew flowers
in the path of crime, and still does not
remove the principal restraints. We
have not a very high regard for the ve
racity of the rebels, and cannot see why'
a man who took an oath to support tje
Constitution of, the United States, and
then fought to destroy it, should not4be
ready to ;repeat the operation times
10t1,mut number. But the Attorney
General seems to put greater confidence
in the class to which the rule applies.
It is t4: ; be feared that some of our pub
lic men do not l yet comprehend the
magnitude of the' rime of treason. It
is well, also, to remember that forgive
ness is promised only to such as bear
fruits meet for repentance.

Great swindles appear to be the ord r
of the day. The latest is the hay-ra e
swindle, just flaw being ventilated y
the New York State. papers. The awl ,
dle was concocted in Chenango Couil
ty, N. Y., and upward of 200 men are
scattered through the different States
engaged in selling the unwary.
We have nowhere seen the precise
plan of operation pursued by these
swi.Mllers. But it seems that they sell
territory and take notes therefor paya
ble in stxty daSis. The right to manu
facture is not sold, and the evidence
goes to prove that the patentee; one
Palmer, of Greene, Chenango Co., is
the sole maker of the rake, yet has no
faegities to furnish them. The pur
chasers of rights cannot deliver the
rake, and so lose their money.
We have reason to fear that some of
these operators bare been at work in
this county already. At all events let
the people avoid 4 all venders of patent
rights.

ded. The despatch bearing the nelvs
stater that the summary execu
tion of the unhappy Max had been de
creed by Juarez, the President. We do
not see why this should be done ; Max
imilian, like Jeff Davis, is the relict of
" a lost cause," the victim of an idios
yncracy. Davis tried to destroy MI na
tive country. Max did destroy the
Mexican Republic. Davis failed, and
borrowed the crinoline of his mother
in-law to run away in. Max failed, but
faced his foe to the last. We can ad
mire Emperor Max, but find itdiffidult
to coax up any better emotion than dis
gust...in behalf of Jeif Davis.•._We hone
Juarezl - has not shot Max, and will not.
A good thing might be done—Senorßo
mere, the Mexican Minister at Wash
ington, might bail Max, simply as an
act of magnanimity. t_
, If Mr. Greeley is entirely satisfied
tth his action in the case of Jeffersen
vis he-etrn afford to have his motives
isconstrued. . He set out with a dec
laration that he would not indulge ,in
explanations to anybody, and has av
eraged a column per day, directly, or in
directly, in defense of his action. Had
he stuck by his declaration he would
have foiled his assailants, as the innate
chivalry of human nature always rk
spects a nip-combatant: But since he
indulges in sharp wads and bad tem
pered phillipiea he mutt expect to be
badgered by his "minor cotemporaries."
His often allusion to those who " howl,
I
themy paper!" reveals the_ fact that
!he is troubled thereby. We should
never feel avenged Of an injury by stop
ping a panel; but the people have their
idiosyncracies as well as Mr. Greeley,
and stopping papers is oue of them it
seems. f

Pioneer Sketches
I have'read the sketches of the early
settlement of Tioga County lately pub
lished in The Agitator, and naturally
feel much interest in such, reminiscen
ces; having lived in Northern Penn
sylvania since February 1804, part of
the time in Bradford and the remain
der in Tioga County. I glean .from
McMaster's history of Steuben County
that Samuel Baker, from Connecticut,
built a cabin betweeh the Tioga and
Cowanesque rivers, a few rods South Of
the State line. His entire movables
consisted of a cow, and such things as
he could carry on his back. His near
est neighbor was a Mr. Harris, an Indi
an trader at tho Painted Post, the next
below Elmira. During the summer
Mr. Stone, from Massaehusettss, who
had been engaged in the Shays' Re
bellion, and tied to the wilderness to
escape arrest. In the fall, Mr. IN er
left Stone In care of his cabin and
while he went east to get his faint ,
with whom he returned the next spring.
Here he lived until 1793, six years.—
Not being satisfied with the title to his
Pennsylvania farm he was induced by
Col. Williamson ( who had visited him,
the year previous while exploring -the'
road from Lycoming County) to remove
to Steuben County, at the head of Crook
ed Lake, where he lived until 1842, and
died at the age of 80 years. His was an
eventful life, having been a soldier at
15, taken prisoner by the British army,
and held in captivity until the surren
der of Burgoyne. He then rejoined the
American army and served through the
war. He became one of the foremos, _
men in Steuben county, holding at one
time the office of Judge, and at - various
times offices of trust.
In 1792, Benjamin, overseer of the
men who were cutting out the William
son Road, found coal while hunting
near where Blossburg now stands.—
It was then known as " Peter's Camp,"
from the name of their baker who built
an oven thereoarobably the first build
ing ever put up in that region. A few
days later the same, Company made an
impro-vement at Canoe Camp Creek,
while Patterson was away at Painted
Post. _His men made a few canoes, and
cleared about two acres of land. This
seems to have been the second clearing
tritide-in_T toga County
Minnesota, it is estimated, isreceiving
an addition to its population of one
thousand a day:
THE SHIP OE DEATH.—Since the
time when the Ancient. - .Ig - wilier told
the terrible tale of the curse-laden ship
with her crew of ghastly corpses, no
more thrilling story of the sea has been
related than that of the ship Diana,
that recently drifted hit* one of the.
Shetland islatids•
A year'ago she left thet Shetlaida On`
a whaling voyage to the iliretie regions,
having on board fifty min. From that
time nothing more was heard of her.—
The friends of those on - board becarbe
alarmed.' Money was raised- and pte
miums offered to the first vessel that
would bring tidings of tho missing ship
but all to no avail. Hope was almost
abandoned.
On the 2d of April the people near
Rona's Voe, in one or.tbe Shetland
Isles, were startled at seeing a ghastly
wreck of-a ship sailing into the harbor.
Battered and iceerushed, sails and cord
age cutaway, boats and . spars cut up
for fuel in the terrible Arctic winter,
her decks covered with dad and dying,
the long lost Diana salledin like a ship
from the Deadman's Land. Fifty. men
sailed out of Lere lf. in tier °n it bright.
May morning la ear..y All of the fif
ty came back on er on 'the second of
April, this year ; the _sane, yet how
different I
Ten men of whom the captain was
one, lay stiffened corpseS On the deck ;
thirtyfive lay helplessly sick, and some
dying ; two retained sufftbient strength
to creep aloft, and the other three crawl
ed feebly about the deck. The ship was
boarded by the islanders, „ittid as they
climbed over, he bulwarlfs, the man at
the wheel fell faintingtrom excitement ;
one of the sick died as he lay, his death
being announced by the fellow occu
pant of his berth feebly., moaning,
"Take away this dead man:" On the
bridge of the vessel lay the body of the
captain, as it had lain for four - months,
with nine of his dead shipmates by his
side, all decently laid - out by those who
soon expected to share their fate.
Ther , survivora could not bear to sink
the bodies of their comrades into the
sea, but kept them so that whet' .the
last man died the fated ship that had
been their common home should be
their common tomb. The Surgeon of
the ship worked faithfully to the last,
but cold, hunger, scurvy and dysentery
were too much for lain. The brave old
Captain was the first victim, and died
blessing his men. Then the others fell,
one by,one, until the shiWas tenanted
only by the dead anddying. ' One night
more at sea would have left the Diana
a floating coffin. Not cue of the fifty
would have lived to tell the !ghastly
tale.
The Richmond poem -
are naturally
very much rejoiced over the'-release of
Jell. Davis, and as a genera thing,treat
the matter in a kindly and' commenda
ble spirit. They say that the act has
done more to promote a spirit of kind
ness and good will between the North
and South than anything which has oc
curred since ° the close of the war.—
Nearly all of them speak warmly also
of the conduct of Mr. Greeley, and Ger:-
ritt Smith In manifesting so much frit
terest in the matter, and in coming for
ward personally to give bail for the late
Confederate President. They say it
shows a generosity and kindness of
heart on the part of two men toward
whom the South has cherished the most
bitter hostility heretofore, as unexpect
ed as it is gratifying.. The Dispatch
says that Mr. Greeley and Mr. Davis,
though heretofore "antipodes in politi
cal sentiments, are now friends by the
force of the sympathy of honest hearts
and the best impulses of our nature."—

FATAL DARING.—On last Saturday*
morning a party having a lumber raft
in charge, .on the river opposite this

instead of the chute,. as is the usual

Deacon Moses 11 ail, formerly of

when he settled in Geneva, was obliged
to go by boat to Northumberland, and
thence up the North Branch of the
Susquehanna to Tioga Point, and thence

Newtown, and a mere settlement, In

Some weeks since the wife of a, Te
spectahle citizen of Troy died after a
brief illness, left.ving her husband some
thiQg like five thousand dollars which
she had • carefully saved from money

Scientific men predict that the. sum
mer of 1867 will be cold and wet like
that of last year. They base the predic
tion on the fact that immense masses of
ice have broken, or are about to break
away from the extreme north, produ
cing cold and vapor.
