The Trial Of the Arch Traitor.

The trial of Jeff. Davis will take pro.
mhent place among the celebrated trials
of the world recorded in history. There
fore it behooves the people of the United
States to see that everything con-
nected with this, the greatest case in
their jurisprudence, is arranged with
calmness, self-respect, and according to
the recognized forms of law. For his
tory, that records the matter of the trial,
will also mark we'll its manner. The con-
temporary nations, too, look eagerly on,
viewing, and with reason, that our institu-
tions, our boasted national love of Justice
and trust in the suficiency of our iudica-
tories, are all on trial, as we'll as the crimi-
nal.
1t is hoped, therefore, that nothing will
be charged against Davis but what is sure
of being proven, that he will be tried in
our Supreme Court, presided over by
Cbief-Justice Chase, defended by the
ablest lawyers the country can produce,
and that every question akin to the issue
be raised and decided. There are various
serious questions to be decided, once and
for all time-the extent of the allegiance
of the citizen; what our civil, military
and naval officers swear to perform, when
they take the oath binding them to the
Federal service. In word, it is neces-
sary 10 purge the Interpretation of the
spirit of the Constitution from all doubt
and error, and make it so plain that he
who runs may read.
While we mete out to Jeff. Davis the
punishment which is his due, let us con-
slider that we have to make plain to tho
world the difference between freedom and
anarchy, law and despotism and that the
strength of our Government consists in
that it is based on the affection and un-
shacklod choice of an intelligent and law
abiding people.

The Mobile Explosion,

New YORK, June ga special des-
patch from Mobile to the New Orleans
Times furnishes some additional particu-
lars of the terrible explosion there, of
which we have heretofore had only mea-
gre account.
The explosion occurred in the main
ordnance depot of the United States, To-
Gated in Marshall's warehouse, corner of
Lipscomb and Commerce streets. Among
the buildings which suffered by the ex-
plosion were the Ne,Ds and Tribune offices.
The latter was demolished by shell,
which descended through the roof.
Cabs, carriages, &c, in the street were
overturned, and horses fell as if shot
Those which were not knocked down
seemed paralyzed. Men were thrown
down and seriously injured OF the distance
of half mile from the place of explosion.
The loss of property is estimated at from
five to ten millions of dollars The cot
ton destroyed is fixed at from eight to ten
thousand bales. The greater portion of
it belonged to private parties. The gov
ernment loss in cotton is small The con-
tents of the depot consisted of two hun
dred tons of ammunition, including mus
ket cartridges, cannon powder, a large
number of blank musket cartridges, and
a quantity of loaded shells, grape, CAMS
ter and solid shot. The amount of pow
der in the warehouse is set down at 80
tons-about one-third being ammunition
surrendered by Dick Taylor.
Thousands of men worked hour after
hour among the ruins, bringing forth one
after another of the writhing and dead
victims. We saw the bodies of Mr.. Nc
Mahon, in charge of the carpenters work;
of the Captain Assistant Quartermaster,
and the purser of the steamer Laura,
which vessel was lying. on the marine
ways, opposite the city, who was killed
while sitting at his desk by piece of
shell or brick.

"START1NG SCHOOLS AND PRAYER

"New England produces many of the

South that Yankee, because a Yankee,
is necessarily their friend, and this unclean
brood will overspread the South like To-

Booths Idea of Immortal Fame.

We learn on the best authority that
when Wilkes Booth was in the city year
ago, he remarked to prominent citizen
that "the man who killed Abraham Lin
coin would occupy higher niche of fame
than George Washington This demon
strates that his infamous deed was long
premeditated.
From the Chicago Journal.
A theatrical gentleman of this city in
forms us that in the early part of 1868,
during an engagement of j. WilkesBooth
at McVicker's theatre, he made the re-
mark one day, "What glorious opportu.
nifty there is for man to immortalize
himself by killing Lincoln %
"What good would that do ?" he was
asked.
He then quoted these lines -
1.-THE ambitious youth who fred the Ephesian
dome
Outlives in fame the pious fool who reared it."
"Well, who was that ambitious youth
what was bis name ?" was then asked.
"That don't know" Booth replied.
"Then where's the fame you speak
of"
This, our informant tells us, nonplussed
him.
From this it would seem that the as
sassin has had the commission of this hor-
rid crime in his mind for at least two or
three years.
Observation-Disclosures it was who set fire
to the temple of Artemis at Ephesus.-
When put to the torture, he gave as his
excuse Ga yearning for Immortality
The Ephesians, therefore, decreed that bis
name should pass into oblivion-but The
opompus mentioned the foolish youths
name in his history.-Sat. Ey'q Rost.l

A very significant little incident &C.

and having been greeted with an endless
variety of comments, I cannot refrain

Most of the gentlemen met General
Sherman as he entered the party, and
grasped his hand. Secretary Stanton was
seated between General Grant and the
President. General Sherman approached
the President extending his hand When
Secretary Stanton rose and extended his,
Gen. Sherman turned on his heel and
seated himself at the further end of the
platform, without even bowling a recogni-
ton. The slight was no sooner given than
noticed by the multitude, who, in the en-
thusiasm of the moment, loudly applauded
the act, and even laughed immoderately
at the Secretary's discontinue.

stantonian, or the Republican Form Of
Government.

Greeley in the New York Tribune says {:
"We venture to assure our new Presi-
dent that the American people, having now
given fair trial to the Stantoniap and
the Republican forms of government re-
spectively, do greatly prefer the latter,
and desire return to it at the earliest
possible day-which they believe to be
this day. If we are still at war, and our
government in peril, then, such orders as
have recently been issued re-opening trade
and reducing our ornaments ought to be
countermanded or forborne; but if the
war is virtually ended, the rebellion dis
comfted and the nation saved, then we in.

FATAL AccDEET.-On Wednesday last Mr..

residing in this place, while experimenting
the cutting of some timber on their farm,
about one mile from Churchville, met with an
accident which caused his almost instant death.
I. appears that in telling tree in the woods, it

only one of our churches was open. This was,
however, unavoidable, as all the other ministers
