Important Report.

Mr. Boutwell,, chairman of the Judic-
larry Committee of the House, has made
a long and elaborate report in regard TO
the completely Of JEFF Davis with the
assassination of President Lincoln, and
other barbarous crimes committed dur
ing the war This report introduces a
mass Of testimony drawn from a yarie-
ty of sources testimony direct and cir
cumstantial, which goes TO show that
the starving of our soldiers at Ander-
sonyille, Salisbury, and other places,
the burning Of cities and towns in the
Northern States, the destruction Of ship
ping by fire, the introduction of infect
ious diseases among our soldiers and
citizens, the destruction Of the Capitol
at Washington. and the assassination
Of President Lincoln and other Officers
of the government, were parts Of ascon-
certed plan to cripple the power Of the
I loyal States, and destroy urinstitutions
and government; and that jeff Davis
and the officers under him approved,
encouraged and gace direct or indirect
aid to those measures. The testimony
addueed ID relation TO these matters il
50 full and SO circumstantial as scarcely
to leave a doubt in any candid mind Of
I the guilt Of Davis not only Of treason
/ but of other crimes shocking TO human
ity, and which deserve the severest pun

report by recommending the adoption
81 the following resolutions:

insuiliency in the present state Of the
law to prevent or interfere with tho til

finally aud let Us hope permanently,

I, il now nine years since the FIRST
attemp, was made TO connect the two
continents by q thread two thousand
miles long. Two attempts were made
ia tie summer Of 1857, the cable being
shipped on two large war vessels, the
United States ship Niagara and the
British ship Agamemnon. In the FIRST
attempt the cable was joined in mid
ocean. and the Niagara sailed West and
tho Agamcmnon East The wire WAS
broken three times and the plan aband-
oned. IN August Of tho same year it
WAS tried again, the intention being for
ono vessel 10 begin and the other 10 re-
liete her IN mid-occan. This also failed
after paying out over three hundred
miles 81 the cable The enterprise was
renewed the next summer, 1858, aud
August 9th the continents were married
and Queen Vie. and Old Buck saluted
zach other But the current failed to
operate through the lnc in few days,
aud tie hopes Of a permanent union Of
the continents we're sadly disappoint-
ed. The next attempt was made last
year, with the cable all cooled aboard
the Great Eastern, and an accident TO
the machinery caused the breakage OF
the cable after more than half Of it was
