BooTH's OIL OPERATIoNs.-It will be re-
collected that stories were af1oat to the eff
feet that Booth, the assassin, had accumula-
ted much money by operations in oil. The
New York Times has no faith in the stories.
1t saws that the murderer of President Lin
coin was found so well supplied with money
for several months before the assassination,
that he found it necessary to account for his
highly solvent pecuniary condition by repre-
senting himself as speculator in oil stocks.
This story might have passed unchallenged
but for the untoward discovery of his broth
er's (J. B. Booth's) letter, demonstrating ng
against his continuing in the oil business, At
ter Richmond had been taken. Here was the
first cue to the money problem. And we

A PENNSYLVANIA SOLDIERS IDEA-A sol
dier of Pennsylvania regiment who was
wounded at the battle of Charlottesville and
left on the field. afterwards related his adven.
lures to his colonel. When the tide of bat.
tie had swept past the spot where he lay, a
rebel soldier came to him and took away his
canteen, his haversack, his musket and
accoutrements, and finally demanded his
coat and shoes. st this the Pennsylvania
at first demurred, but was forced to submit.
Thereupon ensued conversation: Where
do you belong2" asked the rebel. ITO
Pennsylvania, was the reply. s And what
are YOU doing down here in Virginia ?''
"Vell comes down here to fight" said the
unlucky Bucks county man. "To fight,
eh ?' said the Virginian why don't YOU
fight in your own State, fyou want to fight
what business have you here in Virginia ?''
The question might have been a poser for
some, but the brave Dutchman replied,
we'll, fights NIT Uncle Sam, and Uncle
Sam he goes efryvere."

Mr. DOUGLAS OPIHIoN OF PRESIDENT
LINcoLN.-I can never forget, and have
often narrated an incident which took place
in New York when Judge Douglas became a
candidate for reelection to the Senate, and
7hen he was opposed by the Republicans
I'D by the whole force of the Buchanan ad-
ministration. 1t was in the Spring of 1858
when called on the Judge, who was then
staying with Mrs. Douglas at the st. Nicholas
Hotel. He was preparing for the canvass
with great zeal. and knew he had great
struggle before him. The intelligence had
Just reached him that his Republican compet-
itor would be Abraham Lincoln. While re-
alizing that this fact only added to his own
doubts of the result, he seemed to be fattered
that his opponents had put forward their
best man. Holding Mr.. Lincoln's well
known, and for a long time much abused,
but not the less prophetic, speech in his hand
that speech in which he shocked the slave
despots by declaring that this nation must
be all free or all slave''-with this remark
able production in his hand, he proceeded to
pay high tribute to Mr.. Lincoln. He said
he was the leading man of his party, the
most difficult man to meet and match on the
stump and the most skillful and thoughtful
statesman of his school. 1t is unnecessary to
do more than refer to the resulting debate
between these intellectual wrestlers. If it
ended in making Douglas Senator, it placed
in bold relief before the nation the future
President of the United States.-J. W.
Eorney.

Col. OULD.-It is stated that the rebel ex-
Commissioners of exchange, Col. Ould and
Major Hatch have been arrested in Rich
mond by Gen. Grants order, upon a charge
of having misappropriated a little item of
$500, 900 which was entrusted to them for the
relief of our prisoners then held in the
South. The spirit which has actuated Col.
Guilds treatment of our brave fellows, and
the management of this exchange question,
is exhibited in letter now before US, in his
own handwriting, addressed to Brig. Gen.
Winder, under date of City Point, March
18th, 1868. In this letter Col. Ould says:
The arrangements | have made for ex-
changing prisoners) works largely in our fa-
vor. Weget rid Of a setof miserable aoretches,
and receive some of the best material ever
saw"
Such language as this is precisely what
might have been expected from stakeholder
| and one who had been accustomed to estimate
human flesh according to its value in dollars
and cents. 1t was not in accordance with
Col. Ould's designs to let our poor soldiers
come back to us as anything but smiserable
wretches," and it is not strange, therefore,
that he should have eonnived at making
some other than the proper disposition of the
missing $500, ,000.-N. T. Times, May Sth.

How Our MILITARY RESOURCES HAVE IN
CREAsED-A few facts from the report of the
Secretary of War show how immensely our
military resources, or means for keeping an
army supplied with the material of war,
haveincreased since the rebellion commenc-
ed. The Secretary says the Springfield
armory alone can furnish three hundred
thousand muskets annually, nearly three
fourths of the whole number required. The
ordnance department furnished, from June,
1868, to June, 1864, one thousand one hun.
dred and forty-one pieces of cannon, which
is only two hundred more than we have ta-
ken from the rebels since December; seven
million and a half pounds of powder, two
million proiectiles for cannon, seven million
and half pounds of bullets and lead. The
military railroads constitute a most wonder
full feature of the gigantic machinery for
moving an army. Under the sueprinten-
dence of Gen. COLON more than one thous-
and miles of railroad have been built or re-
built, after their destruction by the rebels, at
cost of eleven million of dollars. Six thous-
and and FIVE hundred miles of military tele-
graph has been in operation, requiring the
force of a thousand persons. Five hundred an
imals are destroyed every day, and that con-
sequently is the rate of supply. The caval-
ry of the Potomac army was twice remount-
ed during the first eight months of this fiscal
year.

THE RULING PASSIONS .-Bonaparte died
in his military garb, his Field Marshal's uni
form and his boots, which he had ordered to
be put on a short time previous to his disso-
luton. Augustus Caesar choose to die in a

The Man who Killed Booth--Anecd0tes.
of Sergeant COrbett.

The New York correspondent of the Boston
Journal writes:
"Corbett, who shot Booth, is well known
in this city. He was constant attendant
at the Fulton Street Meeting, and greatly
annoyed it by what was considered his fan
aticism. He took part frequently, and in
his prayers was in the habit of adding g er"
to all his words, g Oh, Lord-er. hear-er our
prayerer." When anything pleased him he
would shout, Amen," g Glory to God,o in
sharp,l shrill voice, to the great horror. of
the Dutchman who controls the meeting.
All remonstrance was in vain, and he shout

NEGRO IDEAS OF FLTBERTY.-.According to the
Eastern journals, General Hartsuff, COM
manding at Petersburg, Va, has begun to
experience the dangers of the released ne
groes misapprehending their position and
their duties. Many of them, it appears, are
already hugging the delusion that "with
their liberty they acquire individual rights
In the property of their former owners, and
that they are entitled to live with and be sup.
ported by them without being obliged to Ia
bor." Not the least painful feature in this
state of things at Petersburg, comes of the
fact that these emancipated slaves are en-
couraged in this view of their rights by igno.
rant white men, who have made themselves
apostles Of the doctrine-which is by no
means confined to small class-that the ne.
groes must be protected and defended IN
idleness, if he chooses to be idle.
