The Washington correspondent OF the
Cincinnati Commercial, speaking of the
scene in the court roomof the assassination
court martial on Wednesday, says:
The prisoner, Payne, for the first time
almost, appeared to belong to onr common
humanity. His bearing has been brought
out most remarkably. He nearly always
sits upright, entirely unmoved either BY
anything said or done in the room, and
never speaking to the council, but has
appeared bold and defiant but composed.
Who is this man? Has he any friends 2
Where did he come from2 What is his
real manner These questions have been
asked 8 thousand timoS without avail. To-
dy he actually asked that three witnesses
might be called in his fsvor-a lady, a doc
tor, living st Wsrrenton, Virginia, and a
minister of the gospel livingin Florida.
In the conversation that ensued, bis
counsel also said that he had sent Payne's
brother to bring the witness from Warren
ton. During this proceeding Payne leaned
forward in his seat, with his face alternately
flushed and white, and drew 8 long bresth
of relief when it was announced that the
witnesses would be summoned. ua--

of the msn who said, Our name is legion"
only you can see that the said legion has

ately rolling fre-s pair of p~erdition-light-
ed; torches when they move, they fash and
glare rather thGn lock. This is not a mere
reading of theman's crime, already known,
in his look; it is a reasonably sober de-
scription of the reality. AS you look at his
great form, sitting calmly erect and SEEM
ingly reckless you think Of a modern box
er or of 8 Roman gladiator. When you
meet his eye you think of Lucifer; but
when, in the light of that eye, you regard
the whole face, you are reminded Of Satan

moves him; without looking defiant, he is
imperturbed and perfectly st home. His
nerves appear to have gone into muscles.
