IL Late accounts from Venezuela state that the
trial Of ex-President Castro and his Ministers for
treason against the State was concluded on the
2sth Of July, and resulted in their conviction
They We're, however, Immediately pardoned by
the Court. This singular course on the part of
the tribunal had caused considerable excitement
throughout the country, and had also called forth
severe administrations from the press. Castro
was about to retire from Venezuela, and 1t was
supposed he would take up his residence either in
Porto Rico or Cuba

RETURNING HoME.-The various conveyances
centering here come freighted now with heavy
loads Of passengers, on their return from the
springs and other jaunting and sojourning points
The Washington hotels are therefore better filed
with guests than at any previous period perhaps,
since the adjournment Of Congress. The truth is
no summer tour is now complete, unless the tour
ist embraces sojourn of from twenty-four hours
to week In the Federal metropolis, where more
of real interest 10 to be seen and enjoyed than at
any other point In this country, except New York
city. The custom Of embracing short sojourn
here In the programme Of summers jaunt is now
becoming very fashionable, and we predict that
it will soon be followed by all, especially, who
have never previously visited the Federal metrop-
oils, as well as by those taking considerable inter
est in political affairs; for the latter find advan-
tages here that may be sought anywhere else in

PLAYING FOR LINcoLN's ELEcTIoN.-It is well
known by many here that Douglas and his man.
ayers are bent on securing Liucoln's election, I'm
the belief that II he be elected the Douglas inter-
est Will come up as the regular Democratic organ
ization; and that Douglas will thus manage to
succeed him Lincoln) in the Presidency. None
OF them entertain the least idea that Douglas can
posi- bly, be elected now; and they labor topsevent
the election from going to the House Of Repre-
sentatives by any possible chance Hence their
persistent opposition to fusion tickets I'm Connect
cut, Pennsylvania and New Jersey; which States
they desire to secure to Lincoln, beyond perad-
venture. They consented to the proposition to
fuse with the Bell interest in New York, because
believing 1t certain that Lincoln can carry that
State over any possible combination that may be
made against him. They are anxious to give Wiz
ginia, North Carolina, Maryland and Tennessee
to Bell, 30 that the Breckenridge cause may ap-
pear after the election to have been as weak at the
South as at the North. They seek to secure such
result az one Of the means Of aiding their &C heme
Of assuming to be the head and front Of the DEM
ocfatie party opposition to the administration Of
Lincoln, whose election, as explained above, they
seek to make sure beyond any possible contn-
gency. ts.z.. f7s
We know, positively, that this programme is
freely avowed both by Douglas and his managing
men In private conversation. 1t is in excellent
keeping with his (D.'s) declaration to John
Covode, that he bad his " baggage checked
through for the Republican partys headquarters,
on memorable occasion; and also with his 5.
surance to Frank Blair, Jr that his object was
TO secure for him the seat Of James = Green In
the L :. Senate; the truth Of neither Of which
has he yet dared TO deny by authorizing the wit
nssses to both conversations to make public what
they know concerning them. The key to the tone
Of his (Douglass) late Virginia and North Care =
lima speeches and to the of his confidential
friends in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, acting
under his Immediate advice is to be found In this
explanation, as honest Democrats, who are still
his dupes, will find to their sorrow, perhaps, soon
after the opening Of the next session Of Congress

SUICIDE OF DYING MAN-In the village
of Crowensville, Clearfield County, Pa, on
Saturday last, one of the most remarkable
cases of suicide occurred in the case of man
named Alonzo Ross, aged about twenty-five
years, who, by an almost superhuman effort,
raised himself from dying bed and cut ms
throat with razor.-The young man had peeh
very delicate for two years Last week lie
became so far reduced that his friends gave up
all hopes of his recovery-it was thought that
his life would not be prolonged another week:
On Saturday last he talked of leaving his bed
for the purpose of shaving, and about noon,
during very brief absence of the family, ex-
cept small brother, from the room, the young
man Jumped out of bed, and concentrating all
his energies in the effort, ran across the apart
ment, entered a small room, where his father
kept his surveying instruments, shaving tools,
&C., and the door of which had been accident
ally unlocked, got out the shaving cup and
brush, sat down upon a chair before the look
ing-glass as if to shave, and in that position
cut his throat with razor. All this was done
in few seconds, before his younger brother
conld give the alarm or prevent it. He was an
estimabie young man, and a consistent church
member.
