and not a truce. Nattel lays It down that
rp. AL During the truce, especially II
made for long period it is naturally al
lowable for enemies to pass and repass to
and from each others country, M the
same manner as it is allowed in time Of
peace, since all hostilities are now sus-
ponded. Bat each of the sovereigns is
at liberty, as he would be in time Of peace,
to adopt every precaution which may be
necessary to prevent this intercourse trcm
becoming prejudicial to him. lie has
just grounds of suspicion against people
with whom he issoon to recommence hos
tilities lie may even declare, at the
time of making the truce that he will
admit none Of the enemy into any place
under his jurisdiction.
"Those who, having entered the enc
my's territories during the truce, are de-
tanned there by sickness, or any other un-
surmountable obstacle, and thus happen
to remain in the country after the expi-
ration of the mmistice, may, in strict W.
tice, be kept prisoners; it is an accident
which they might have foreseen, and to
which they have, Of their own accord ex-
posed themselves; but humanity and gen.
erosity commonly require that they should
be allowed sufficient term for their de.
parture.
g If the articles of truce contaia any
conditions either more extensive or more
narrowly restrictive than what we have
here laid down, the transaction becomes
particular convention. 1t is obligatory
on the contracting parties, who are bound
to observe what they have promised IN
due form; and the obligations thence re-
sutiug constitute a conventional right"
Now il the riLhts Of enemies, during
a long truce and suspension Of hostjlities,
are thus restricted, it would seem evident
that their right under capitulatiun Of
surrender, without any suspension Of hos
ulities. could not without express words
in the stipulation to that effect, by any
thing like as large rs under truce and
suspension Of hostilities.
Regarding Gen. Grant, then, as speak
ing simply as a soldier. and with the pow
ers OF Il soldier; regarding this war as Il
territorial war, and all persons within that
territory as residents thereof, and as such
enemies of the Government, and locok-
ing to the language Of the stipulation, !
am of opinion that the rebel ohiccr3 who
surrendered to General Grant have 10
homes within the loyal States, and have
no right to come to places which were
THEN homes prior to their going into the
rebellion
IL. As to your second question-the
stipulation Of surrender mode betwixt
Generals Grant and Lee does not embrace
any person other than the officers and sol.
ders of General Lee army. Persons in
the civil service of the rebellion, or who
had otherwise given it support, comfort

Ga5" The COMMISSIONS have been max
ing a laudablc effort to improve the ap-
pcarance Of the Court House yard by SOW
ing grass seed and planting ornamental
trees. This is tho second effort in this
enterprise. The first failed, because the
"boys about town" had things all their
own way; they trampled the ground,
broke the trees, and in short, done every
thing that WAS neces AIRY to completely
foil the good intentions Of our authorities.
We are at loss to know why this should
be. L. our largest cities we find parks
or public grounds oruamented, and undis
turbel by boys. We don't believe boys
are, by nature, any worse in Butler than
New York. Why then can they not be
learned TO behave as we'll here us there?
Simply because the authorities are not
firm in their treatment of primary offence

suffer for it. Make them realize the fact
as soon as any of them tr;Insgress and our
word for it, they will soon be as orderly

it is due TO all concerned, that this should
be done Nor should the reform stop

FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL Is
BootS Killed and Harold Cap-
VTFTT It i.rureH- Ittr

/, It will rejoice the people, as 1t does us, to
learn that BooTH, the man who assassinated
President LINCOLN, has been killed. Per-
,,haps the qualification would be greater il
BoorH had been taken alive; but this he
evidently had determined should not be
done. The particulars attending his death
and of the capture Of his accomplice HAIR
sRoLp, will be found In the telegraphic col
umns. BoorH was shot, and survived three
or four hours. In the first dispatch an
lnouncing the circumstances attending his
attempted capture and death, we were
told that he died disappearing the
SGoyernment. In the later dispatch this
statement is not repeated, but it is reported
3 that when asked If he had anything to say,
he replied: "TeH my mother I died for
my country" This message suggests the
question; "How did he suppose his coun-
try would be served In the assassination Of
President LINcoLNp" The man HAROLD,
who has been captured alive, may throw
! some light on this subject or he may not.
As BooTH was on the threshold OF eternity,
he did noteven utter one word of contri-
tion for the infamous crime he had perpe-
tratell.

To our mind that clergyman does no rev.
erence to the Almighty by saying that it
was to further some purpose of His that He
allowed an assassin to terminate the earthly
existence Of ABRAHAM LINCOLN, and we
think 1t atrocious in an Administration
journal 70 intimate that President LIN
coLN's "most partial friends" "could scarce
have selected an hour more auspicious for
his fame than that in which he SO unex-
pectedly met his tate" as The Ohio State
Journal has declared. With great satisfac-
ton, therefore, have we read the following
sentence in The Neo York Tribme's editor
ial on the obseouies of President LINCOLN
in New York city. 1t is the language OF a
sincere friend:
I'm every good fortune which hereafter
attends US, we shall mourn that he did not
share 1t, and in each calamity that the future
brings we shall fondly believe that had he
lived 1t might have been averted."

eOhioans Should he Slow 10 DisPar-
10 rri- nge Gen. sherman.

The Administration press generally be-
stow upon General SHERMAN unmeasured
abuse because of the agreement he entered
into with Gen. JOHNSTON by which peace
was to be established. The agreement be-
tween SHERMAN and JOHNSTON was not
final nor absolute. 1t could not go into eff
feet until approved by the Administration
at Washington. If wrong in principle and
of an unworthy nature, to the country it
could work no harm until it should be rati-
fled at Washington. SHRRMAN's general
ship is unquestionable. 1t stands pre-emi-
qaent, and why there should be bestowed on
him the most bitter abuse for doing an act
which he undoubtedly thought would give
us an honorable and permanent Peace, Is
certainly unaccouutable. While men feel
Justified In looking with disfavor upon the
terms on which he sought to establish
Peace, we submit whether it is right to dis
.parage either his patriotism or generalship.
Ohioans who have watched his growing
military fame with commendable pride,
should be slow to engage in the work of his
detraction.
