GOVERNOR PIERPoNT AND HIS GOVERN
MENT-HIs COMING DELAYED.-R. W. La
than, Esq, one of the committee of cIti-
zens appointed to make arrangements for
the reception of Governor Francis II. Pier
pont on his arrival in Richmond, received a
telegram from him on Wednesday, dated
Alexandria, May Il, in which he states that
his setting out for Richmond has been una
voidably delayed; that he would he unable
to reach the Capital the present week; that
the committee would be notified by tele-
graph of the time of his starting from Alex
andria. His Excellency's arrival may be
looked for in the early part OF next week.
The Committee of Arrangements and Re-
ception have decided upon a salute at Rock
etts, and an address of welcome upon the
landing of the Governor and his suite.
The Governors mansion has been vacated
by the military authorities, and everything
is in readiness for the head of the Govern
ment.

REsToRED.-On Wednesday lady picked
up $50 note which had been dropped by q
soldier Of the 2ith Massachusetts, regiment,
near her residence. AS he had walked too
far ahead to be hailed, she repaired tc the
barracks during the afternoon, identified the
owner, and restored the note. He offered
to compensate her, but she declined to re-
ceive anything. The merit of this incident,
apart from the honesty involved, is the fact
that the lady walked about half mile to
find the owner, at whose request we make
this reference to the affair.

The Picnic SEASON has come, stimuli

Gus times in the woods, and amid the cata-
racts and flowers, fill the minds of the Sun.
day, and day school masters and misses. OF
we grown mp people, there are few who do
not bear in their memory an ever green re-
collection of the seasons spent in the dreamy
woods, with the concomitants of delicious
homemade cake, lemonade, and all the de-
lightful ct csteras Of real picnic. 1t was an
oasis in the far of experience of our child
hood, and will ever be associated
"WIth old delights that cannot pass
But never come again, alas!''
We opine, that the teachers having charge
of our church, Sabbath, and day schools
are alive to the importanc, OF affording
their pupils a recreation, which their bnoy-
ant spirits have longed for, but been depriv-
ed of for four long, weary years.
The country around Richmond, accessible
by railroad and river, is dotted with pleas
ant resorts; and day spent in their CRATE
full shelter would afford them more real
knowledge and intelligence than a week
spent within the confineJ of the dull, brick
walls of the religious or literary institutions
of the city. Teachers of youth must re-
member, that learning is to be found in
brooks, sermons in stones, and good in
everything that pertains to nature. Let us
away for awhile to the green woods, the
dewy dells, AID the breezy hills.

The following testimony, taken on Fri
day, and suppressed by the Government, has
been given for publication:
Samuel P. Jones, blind witness called
for the prosecution, being duly sworn, tes-
Iifed as follows
By the Judge Advocate
q. Have you resided in Richmond at any
time during the war A. have.
z. State any conversations you may have
heard there, 10 which officers Of the Rebel
Government were parties 10 regard TO the
contemplated assassination Of the President
of the United States. A The nearest |
know anything to that point among the Off
GERS there, is their common conversation in
camp, as / would go about amongst them,
and their conversations would be of this ma
ture That all susplcioned persons, or those
kind Of people they were not certain were
OF their way OF thinking, they would hush
up as soon as they came near them; but az
ter found out what / could learn IN refer
ence to these things, they were desperately
anxious that any such thing as this should
be accomplished.
2. Will you state any particular occasion ?
A. In general way have he I'd sums Of
tered, to be paid with a Confederate sum, for
any person or persons to go North and as
sassinste the President.
Q. Do yOu remember any occasion when
any such offers were made, or any amount
named, and by what kind of officers A. At
this moment 1 cannot tell You the particular
names OF shoulder straps, &c.
Q. Do you remember any OccaSion-some
dinner OCCASION A. can tell you this
heard a citizen make the remark once that
he would give from his private purse &c.
900 in addition 10 the Confederate amount to
have the President assassinated, TO bring
him TO Richmond dead or alive for prof.
Q. What was meant by the phrase sin ad-
ditiOn to the Confederate amount" A.
know nothing about that, any more than the
way they would express il should Judge,
from drawing an inference, that there was
any amount offered by the Government,
in that trashy paper, TO sssassinate any
officials that were hindering their cause,
and even have heard it down as low as
= private or citizen; for instance, if it is not
oigressing from the purpose, / know of a
KentuckiAn, but cannot tell You the nan e
now, that was putting up at the Exchange
Ho.el, or otherwise Ballard House, (tney be-
long TO the same property, and are connected
by . bridge over Franklin street y he was
arrested under suspicion Of being a spy;
can tell you the name now, his name was
Webster, if remember rightly; always
supposed, from what / understood, that be
came down 10 buy goods; but they took him
as spy and hung him; whether it was in
reference TO this assassination / cannot say.
Y. understood you TO say that it was =
subject Of general conversation among the
Rebel othcers' A. IL was; the Rebel OFF,
GERS, as they would be sitting around their
tent doors, would be converslng on such 4
subject great deal they would be saying
they would like to see his head brought there,
dead or alive, and they should think il could
be done, and have heard such things stated
as that they had certain persons undertaking
il.

SPECIAL NOTICES.

The New York Tribune says, "tLe reason why
brakes Plantation Bitters are so universally used
and have such an immense sale, is that they are
always made up to the original standard, of
highly invigorating material and Of pure quality.
although the prices have so largely advanced"
etc.
The Tribune just hits the nail on the head
The Plantation Bitters are not only made of pure
material, but the people are told what it is. The
Recipe is published around each bottle, ana the
bottles are not reduced in size. At least twenty
limitations and counterfeits have sprung up
They impose upon the people once and that's the
last of then.
The Plantation Btters are now used in all
the Government Hospitals, are recommended by
the best physicians and are warranted to pro
stubborn things.

BURGLARS ABOUT.-At an early hour yes
terday morning, few citizens passing the
corner of Seventh and Broad streets, no
ticed couple of suspicious looking stran!
gers lounging in front of the family grocery
establishment Of Mr.. Stanley, situated on
said corner. Word was at once conveyed 10
the guard, who nightly patrol the vicinity of
the Theatre opposite, and the latter ap-
preached the strangers with interrogatories
as to their business. The questions receiv-
ed most plausible replies, so much so that
the guard did not think themselves warrant
ed in OBTAINING the parties; consequently
they left them, with the advice to "move
on" The fellows did move on, and in the
CELEBRITY of their retreat dropped upon the
pavement Jimmy and flea pair Of i'm
plements which at once disclosed their pro-
fession and designs. The stools" we're Sc
cured by the guard, but the "birds" es-
capped.
REruRNED.-Mr. Edward Y. Cannon, attor-
ney at law, has returned to the city from q
trip North, taken before the evacuation. He
found his Office, corner of Franklin and Gov
ernor streets, occupied by news depot, his
library and furniture gone. 1t is said the
native negroes carried of the books, because
they expected to get an education soon, and
wanted some stores of knowledge to start on.
