A Point made In the jefferson
Davis Trial.

The Dayton (O.) Empire makes the fol
lowing point in connection with the trial of
Mr.. Davis. We think it well taken.
THE TRIAL OF JEFFERSON DAVIS
There seems to be no doubt now that the
charge of completely in the assassination of
President Lincoln, on the strength of which
reward of $4,000 was offered for the
arrest Of Mr.. Davis, is to be abandoned and
the prisoners put on trial for treason. The
bill of Indictment drawn by District -Attor-
ney Darlington and returned by the Grand
jury, is published. 1t predicates the charge
upon the attack upon Fort Strong, near
Washington, by Early and Breckenridge last
July.
1t is due to President Johnsons reputa-
ton, to the dignity Of the Government and
to Mr.. DAVIS, that the charge of his com
plicity in the assassination should be with
drawn as formally as it was made, or he be
given an opportunity to disprove it. The
utter failure of the evidence adduced by
Stanton and Holt to implicate any of the
Southern men named, leave the impression
that they intended to stigmatize them with
the Infamous charge, without being called
upon for the evidence upon which it rested.
The clamoT of the press against secret
star-chamber trial, obliged them to open
the doors of their 'court" and expose the
character of the Bureau Of Military JUS
tice." They didn' expect to capture Davis,
but fired this poisoned arrow after him, Just
as Stanton shot at Sherman.
In each case the slander has returned to
plague its authors"

The ssassinatiOn Trial at
Washington.

That calm and moderate paper, the New
York Journalof Commerce, has the follow
ing criticism upon the Military Commission
at Washington. 1t says:
THE trial presents picture which will
be by no means honorable TO Us in history
There is no pretense, that we know of, on
the part of the Court or the Judge Advo-
cate, or any one else, that large mass of
the evidence given has anything to do with
the case of the accused. The civilized
world will look with surprise and regret on
the strange spectacle presented by this Court
or Commission, assuming jurisdiction to
try men and women for capital offences,
where the civil courts are in full power,
and after assuming this jurisdiction proceed
ing to head up a mass of testimony design
ed solely to reach the public mind, and ut
terly without reference to the question OF
guilt or innocence of any of the prison
ers.
I'VE may be pardoned, in view of such
scene, for entering once more on our re-
cord plea in behalf of due process of law.
1t is the grand fortifcation of life, property
and reputation. But at the present time
no one enjoys it-no one is secure against
accusation, punishment, and death, without
possible escape by denfense in due form "

MistsIIansous.
A New Feature Of American
Criminal Jurisdiction.

The Washington correspondent of the
St. Louis Republican commences letter
on the conspiracy trial, now in PROCESS at
the Federal Capital, with the following re.
marks:
Go into the Court room, and stay an
hour with your eyes and ears open, and the
conclusion forces itself upon you that not one
OF these eight miserable wretches on trial
stand the slightest show of escaping hang
ing. Their doom was sealed when thew fell
into the hands of the military. II Mr..
stanton organized court 10 comet, this is
It, You see it plainly in the bearing and
action of every member, from the President
to the lowest officer. Gen. Hunter insulted
Reverdy johnson at the start, the overbcar-
ing demeanor of the Judge Advocate, the
continual ovcrruling and snubbihg OF the
same by the Commission, and last, though
not least, as expressive of the unworthy ami
mus, Gen. Lew Wallace openly insinuatinga a
charge of bribery against helpless negro
witness for the defence; all these reflect the
true spirit prevailingn that Commission. 1t
says as plain as can be without words, WE
are the greatest power in the land WE try
these men as concession to public opinion,
which we think would be nearer right were
it satisfied to allow us to condemn and
hang them without trial. and WE tolerate
the council for the defence-if for no
other reason-because we are determined
beforehand all their efforts in behalf of the
prisoners shall prove Of no avail.
1T can hardly be said that the prisoners
will not get justice from this military, for
their crimes almost place them beyond the
pale Of the laws projections; yet it is very
unfortunate they we're not tried by a civil
tribunal. The proceedings ofthe court now
trying them will form another dark page in
the history of our time; the more to be re-
GREETED because there was not the least ne
cessitY for its cxistenca

Gen. JacksOn's Motto.

Think before you act, but when the time
comes for action, stop thinking" This is
the true doctrine Many men fail in life,
and go down to the grave with hopes blast
ed and prospected happiness uhrealizcd, be
cause they did not adopt and act upon this
motto Nothing so prepares man for
action as thought; but nothing so ,1nfts
man for action as the want of action.
Better by far adopt some course and persue
it energetically, even though it may not be
the best. than to keep continually thinking
without action. Go ahead" ought to be
printed in every young mans hat, and read
until it becomes part of his nature, until
he can act upon his own judgment, and not
be turned from his course by every wind Of
interested advice. In conclusion we would
say, Think before you act; but when the
time for action comes stop thinking"

The Family Of the New Presf.j
.ients

The Hon. Andrew johnson, President of
the United States, is in the ffy-sixth year
of his age. His family reside at present in
Nashville, Tennessee, and consists of his
wife and four children, two sons and two
daughters. His son Robert is twenty nine,
and Andrew johnson, Jr., is twelve years
ofage. His two daughters, with their fam
lies, also reside in Nashville, having been
driven from their homes in Eastern Tennes-
see. One of Mr.. Johnsons sons, Charles,
q surgeon in the army, was thrown from his
horse in the year 1868 and killed. and Col.
Stover, son-iu-law, commanding the 4th
Tennessee i.fantry Regiment, was killed
in the battle of Nashville, while CALAMITY
leading his command in action. Judge
Patterson, who is also a son-in-law of the
President, lives in Nashville. Mrs John
son has been in very bad health for some
time past, and it is probable Mrs Colonel
Stover will preside over the presidential
household Washington Chronicle.

Waking Grandma.

A sweet little incident is related by a wri.
ter. He says
II asked a little boy last evening, "Havs
you called your gandma to tea ?''
Yes. When went to call her she was
asleep, and didn't wislrto holler at grand
ma nor to shake her; so | kissed her check,
and that woke her very softly, then ran in
to the hall, and said, pretty loud, Grand
ma, tea is ready, and she never knew what
woke her. ="
Do we find anything more sweet, delicate
and lovely than this in the annals of poetry?
Can conventionality improve upon such po-
litcness, spontaneously in the heart of a six
years old boy?

You may talk of California
And It's yellow golden stores,
And the new State Of Navado
OF her mines of silver and ore;
But the state of Pennsylvania
OF her bOasting none can spoil
With her wondrous wealth that's flowing
From Its mighty beds OF oil.
CHoRUs-Then III work away and dig away,

Where you go both high and low
Are talking of the oil.
And to this great discovery
farmer one gave birth
He planted some potatoes
Pretty deeply In the earth;
One day he pulled up basket full
And put them down to boil,
And when he went to take them up,
The pot was full of oil.
An oil barrel once fell across;
My arm did sprain;
] went to see q doctor to get Ii set again;
found him digging at a well:--
Said he, "rub II with Petroleum;
Then take dose of oil"
The Tailor leaves his lap-board,
And the Carpenter his plane
The Barber, Cobler, every one
Has oil upon the brain.
A wife unto her husband said,
AS he goes out to toll,
"What shall we have for dinner lover"
He only answered,-"oILn ~
a lover sits o counting,
And his thoughts he does divide;
One half upon Petroleum.
Half on his intended bride:
He suddenly her waist does seize,
And she his wish to foil,

Said he, "a little OIL"
