Booths Supposed AcoosmupHoes..


Beverly Tucker and Cleary have both pub
lished manifestoes denying the charge that
they had any thing to doawith the murder of
Mr.. Lincoln. Besides this, Tucker an Saun-
ders have issued document addressed to the
President, from which we make the following
MONTREAL, May 4. I
"1'O Andrep Johnson, President of the Unit
M ted States; 9 aAy4 a II
"Your proclamation is living, burning lie,
known to be such by yourself and all your SUR
roundings, and all the hired perjurers in Chris
tendon shall not deter US from exhibiting to

"We recognize in many of, your most dis
tinguished generals, men of honor, and we do
not believe their association even with you
has so brutalized them as to prevent their
I doing justice to public enemy under such
grave charges" .s, -
They then given a list Of some twenty-five
Union Generals, and propose to the President,
whom they have addressed so Extensively, to
select any nine of them to constitute tribu-
nal, to meet on. the Canadian border, and try
them on the charge of being Booths accom-
plces, stipulating such conditions as suits
their own convenience Qfcourse they knew
President johnson would stoop to no such low
level as to negotiate with men implicated in
the damning gpiltof assassination; and their
only object in. issuing their pronHncl smento
must have been to raise dust TO blind Can
adam eyes. The Boston Advertiser well says
that the mere denial Of the accused, all things
considered, does not change the state of the
case and, ON the other hand, as bearing
against them, we have the following from the
washington correspondent Of the New York
Times, which bears the marks ef Official irspi-
| ration: ae
sit ought to be understood that the recent
| proclamation offering reward TOR the appre-
hension of Jefferson Davis, as one OF the parties

| opinion as to the guilt Of Davis. twas issued
in pursuance OF the decision of the proper Legal

in Cabinet messing that all parties in any way

| BY military Tribunal, and not by civil courts
| All the testomony relating to the matter wa:
then placed officially In the hands OF the Judge
Advocate General, Hon, Joseph Holt, who ex
amined it very carefully, and made j WRITER
report to the Secretary Of War, giving It al
his official opinion that the evidence proved

1 ton and execution of the plot. It was upor
