DUR!Ns the conspiracy trial, an intelli-
gent witness, a genial son of the Emerald
!sle, was called on the stand, and asked If
he knew anything about the assassination.
He replied that he knew all about it, and
accordingly the courtroom was cleared.
The following is the testimony as it ap-
pears of record: "What do you know
about the tragedy" II know all about
it, yer honor" "Where did you sit in the
theatre ?" "Right under the Presidents
box" "Well, what did you see of the
murder ?" 81 saw mighty fine dressed
man jump from the stage to the Presi.
dents box; then / heard shot, and saw
the same man jump back on the stage, and
bow before the American flag, and shout
out: He's sick; send for Mechanics. y"

The following private letter was written BY

ing strong reflex of the opinion of most Of
the intelligent Southerners who did not take
personal share in the late unholy war, it is ex-

general satisfaction at the South. The effort

sHODDY SWARMING.

1t seems that Saratoga Is swarming thls sea-
son with Goldfish and shoddy austocracy. Even
The Jenkinses Of the Herald, Times and Tribune
have been much disguised with the pretension
and osteataton Of these Jay birds and peacocks
and gobbIers, who robe themselves in such gaudy
nlumage, and strut aud swell al ali the hotels
and prominent promenales Of the locality A
correspondent vino has been recently nauseated
by these ridiculous displays, writes, that the
sh0ddy aristocracy at Saratoga have great diff
fcnlty in wearing tiieir usual adyancements.-
Some of them make most ridiculous work Of
it--remindlng beholders of prominent cattle
bedecked for agricultural fairs. One unf3rtu-
nate Ounce Of o!eagiuous development, actualy
went through the Inarlyrdon Of dressing fifteen
times before supper on Tuesday. A young
ddmsei at table in one Of the biz hotels ycsteT-
day, "aslonished the crowd" by exclaim;ng.
''Loy,' mar. I've dropped my liament into
the gravy :" \ vigorous search for The lost Jew
e---a stomacLar p;,i-was made II the kitchen
refuse, but uRsuccessfclly. It Is only worth
5i2o0, and ''papa' comes within Toodles'
definition Of q gentleman. He 'dOn't care
darn"
Another correspondent writes that last week,
on the occasion of General Grants visit, the
group which gathered around the military chief
tain were greatly shocked by bouncing girl
Of nineteen, who was literally blazing with
Jewels and covered with furbelows and hounCes,
asking aloud, ''if that was ssas ngF gold on
the uniform of the staff officers" And the
sister Of this girl, bat two years her junior, in
sisted upon begging the General, then and there,
if he wouldn't dance with her that night.
The correspondents all agree that there Is, a
greater crowd az Saratoga and Cape May now
than ever before at this time in the season but
more pre.on;ious snobbery and less Of real re-
fined gentiiitY.
