FROM WASHINGTON
Washington, May 20-The interest in the
conspirators' trial does not abate in the least
The Courtroom was crowded to its utmost
capacity to-day. The developments were of a
startling character. A large number Of ladies
we're present, as also, an increased delega-
ton representing the press. ',
There was nothing unusual in the appear
ance and conduct of the prisoners, Nearly
all of the evidence taken to-day related main
ly to the connection of the rebel authorities in
Richmond with those in Canada. A cipher
found in Booth trunk was compared with one
obtained by Assistant Secretary Of War, Dana.
in Richmond, and proved to be the regular c.
pher of the rebel government A translation
was made, showing that the secret writing
which was found related to the Presidential
election. Nothing was developed from it al
luding to the conspiracy, thought demonstra-
ted, beyond all doubt, that Booth correspond
ed with the rebel authorities
The teller the Ontario Bank, of Montreal,
was called, and testified that Jacob Thompson
kept large deposits of money there, but had
lately drawn them out. The bank accounts
we're presented in Court He also testified to
Booths purchasing exchange at that bank,
and stating that he wanted it to run the block
ade with. .r. Y,,r.....
Then followed the evidence of Col. Stuart,
of this citv, who testified to seeing Booth iump
from the stage box, and run across the stage
and noun. his horse in the alley, in the rear
of the theater, and ride away. His testimony
presented nothing new.
| The Court then went into secret session.
All the reporters and special ors were required
to 60 out, only the prisoners and counsel re.
naming. The evidence takenis supposed to
refeS+o the completely of the leading rebels
with this conspiracy
The defense has summoned large number
of witnesses, and it is thought that the trial
will last at least two weeks more The Gov
ernment has not concluded the main evidence
yet, and will probably present rebutting evil
dence after the testimony for the defense has
been heard. .., stt. fr. .r.
General Sherman has paid a very brief visit
to this city, to see General Grant, and return

hardly known, till after he had re-crossed the

Most all of the Armies of Georgia and Ten
nessee have reachedthe vicinity of Alexandria
The preparations for the grand parade on
Tuesday and Wednesday next have been COM
pleted. An elevated covered platform has
been erected in front of the White House,
where the President and Cabinet and Gener-
al Grant will witness the review. The route
includes the Capitol, Pennsylvania avenue,
the Treasury, War and Navy Departments,
and the Presidents house, 1t is estimated
that there will be about two hundred thousand
soldiers in the line of both DAYS. All of the
hotels are already filed by people who have
anticipated the sight -. 80, r;..-. ~.

which has been properly fitted up for his i'm
prisonment He was unaccompanied by any
of his family, and none of his escort save the
rebel Postmaster General The others, who
were captured with him, are supposed to be
imprisoned elsewhere. So far as can be learn
ed, JEFF Davis will be tried before the United
States Court at Baltimore, Chief Justice Chase
presiding, or before the Circuit Court at Rich
mond. 1t seems settled that he will be tried
for treason by the civil authorities.
