Mrs. Swisshelm on Mrs. Surratt,

Mrs. Jane G. Swisshelm, in o letter to
the Pttsburg Commercial, defends the late
Mrs. Surratt, in tones like these 81 know
those who have known her as the belle and
beauty of her country, the petted, spoiled
favorte of her friends, the idol of parents,
husband and children, Her face aud in
deed her whole figure, while on trial, was
soft, rounded, tender and motherly. Her
large gray eyes alone gave indication of
reserved strength. Her behavior during
that long and terrible ordeal, was full of
delicacy and dignity. She made no
scenes, as weak or vain woman would
have done. When her daughter came into
court, and, with quivering lip and stream
ing eye, appeared on the point of breaking
down, with gesture Of command and en-
treaty she restrained her. All the long,
hot days, she sat with her heavy mourn
ing veil down, and a large palm-leaf fan
held between her face and the crowds who
gathered and struggled, and crushed to
gaze at her, as if she had been an alliga-
tor--hundreds OF persons in these crowds
making the most insulting remarks in
her hearing.
During all that time she leaned her head
YEARLY against the wall, and by chang
ing hands kept her fan steadily before
her face, and every few minutes low,
stifled moan escaped her. Man and
woman stood tiptoe and stretched aud
strained, or, having gained entrance, stood
coolly and made such remarks as "Wheres
Mrs. Surratt p ~ want to see her p
ooh, goodness, just look, if she isn't pre-.
tending to be modest !~ 81 wish could
see her face better" "Isn't she deyil!'
"She looks like DEVIL p "Hasn't she
horrid face p 81 hope they'll hang her
tee, hee, hee p All these remarks
and more such, some of them again and
again, and often accompanied by coarse
laughter, ] heard during the two hours
and half sat near her, and she must
have heard them as distinctly as l did.
They were evidently meant for her.
IL appeared to me so cruel and COW.
ardly thus to insult a prisoner in chains
that could not refrain from answering,
and several times said: "!She has not
bad face She has a good face; and if
she had not, it is cowardly to insult her p
She dropped her fan aud looked at me with
such an expression of gratitude as | shall
never. forget. looked into her eyes !;
mine were not dry, while hers filled with
heavy tears. Several asked if 81 was
friend of Mrs. Surratt;" SO strange did any
pity for her appear.

balance and the improved jeweled action, with
line dial and skeleton hands, and is warranted a

Notes Of all denominations named will
be promptly furnished upon receipt of
subscriptions. '.s..
The Notes of this Third Series are pre-
cisely similar in form and privileges to the
Seven-Thirties already sold, except that
the Government reserves to itself the op-
ton of paying interest in gold coin at 6
per cent, instead of 20 10ths in currency.
Subscribers will deduct the interest in cur
rency up to July 10th, al the time when
they subscribe. wilt
. The delivery of the notes of this third
series of the Seven-thirties will commence
on the LIST of June, and will be made
promptly and continuously after that date.
The slight change made in the condi-
tons of this THIRD SERIES affects only
the matter of interest. The payment in
gold, if made, will be equivalent to the
currency interest of the higher rate.
The return to specie payments, in the
event of which only will the option to pay
interest in Gold be availed of, would so
reduce and equalize prices that purchases
made with six per cent. in gold would be
fully equal to those made with seven and
three-tenths per cent in currency. This

p FERTILIzERs.--As the season for fall seeding
approaches, farmers will naturally turn their
attention to the subject of Fertilizers. AT pres
emit the market is largely stocked with Super
Phosphates and Gnanoes of various kinds, and
it is of vital Importance to the agricultural COM
munity to select such fertilizers as will increase
the fertility of their farms, while they secure the
largest present growth of crops. One of the
most popular of these in this State is 'Baugh's
Raw-Bone Phosphate" manure which has been
thoroughly tested for several years past and can
be safely recommended to all who desire relia-
BILE fertilizer. We call special attention to the
advertisement in another column, of Mr.. Dug
dale, the agent in Baltimore, upon whom we
advise our agricultural friends to call.

cable flew over the coil astern, and one of the
hands remarked, "Therc is q piece Of wire"
On search the wire was found to be "three
inches long, aud evidently Of hard, ill-tempered
metal, which had flown out through the strands
in the tank" But the most interesting part OF
Mr.. Russell's diary is his account Of the final
parting of the cable, caused first by chatting and
straining against the iron-rimmcd hawseholeS
on tie left hand bow of the vessel; and, second,
in the attempt to take it up over the right SIDE
of the bow. In the shifting wind it was difii'
cult to head the ship up to tho cable.
1T is not possible" says the historian, "tor
any words to portray the dismay with which
the sight was witnessed and the news heard. 1t
was to move to tears" Wemay wonder then,
at the patience which, after almost hopeless
disaster, t4.ice erappled and thrice lost the
cable in moro than two thousand fathoms OF
water. To its indomtable projectors the
present failure of the cable is only an expert
ment, costly, but doubtless worth the c9st'
which certainly does not prove the impractical
bility of their enterprise.

GUM to France, and the transfer Of the Belgian
King to Mexico. 1t reads like fairy tale.
The Emperor Macmillan, who has no direct
heir, will adopt the Duke of Brabant, Who
smitten at once by the logic ofevents, will gen.
erously yield his succession to the Belgian
crown, and sail away to Ell Dorado. This pro-
gramme, as customary with the Machiavellian
philosopher who rules over France, is not ex'
actly in keeping with his theories of nationality
but it is acuriosity in Paris. Moreover, it will
only be the beginning of general bal
ance of power, or preponderation OF the
French power. Disconnected Frenchmen will
then confess that the employment OF 5o,OOo
soldiers in Mexico was cheap way OF arriving
at long ends and big results. Belgium Will
thus be annexed for Belgium's good, and Mex
leo remain royal for the good of the United
States-which is an excellent illustration OF the
Emperor Napoleon's favorite balance Of power

By On arrival from Brenos Ayres We nave
reports from the war in South America to July
15-eighteen days later than our previous ad-
vices. No important engagements had taken
place since the battle at Riachuelo; but the war
news seems favorable to the Paraguayans.
Gen. Urquiza, who is political opponent 10
the party now in power at BuenOs Ayres, seems
to remain faithful to the cause Of his country,
but his entire army has left him and disbanded.
This must be terrible loss to the Allies, for 1t
was their main force for aresting the further
advance of the Paraguayans into tho territory
of the Argentine republic, and the formation OF
a new army was progressing but slowly Inc
news is the more significant as there are indl'
cations that the dissolution of the army was the
result of sympathy with Paraguay.
The dissolution Of Urquiza's army created the
widest excitement among the BlancoS OF oru'
quay, the party from the hands OF which the
present President Flores illegally snatched the
reins of government by means OF o successful
revolution. OF course, the Blancos are
ready to unite with the Paraguayans rs
soon as they have an opportunity Inc
place San Borja, which. according to previous
adyices, had fallen into the hands OF the
Paraguayans, is only a short distance from
the territory of Uruguay, and further successes
of Paraguay in this quarter would, therefore,
not fail to produce counter-revolution ID
Uruguay, al event that might prove ia'sl
blow to the cause of the Allies.
The Invasion of no less than four Brazilian
provinces by the Paraguayans appears, accord
ing to the last accounts, much greater suc'
cess than former reports represented 1t to De-
and is new proof of the yalor exhibited oy
the ParaguayanS.
The advantages recently gained by the Para
guayans may not be sufficient to turn the scales
of the war in their favor; but they establish
beyond doubt their great superiority over the
Braz.lians and ArgentincS in the art OF war
This they owe to large extent to the appoint
ment Of quite number of able Lnglish ana
German officers in their army.
