Has John surratt been Arrested 2

We have been furnished with the following
statement, the writer of which says he has the
best OF reasons for believing in the reliability Of
what is here atiirmed:-
Sohn Surratt was arrested in Texas. attempt
ing to make his way into Mexico, during the
month of June, 1865. He was placed in charge
OF Captain Smith and three privates, OF the 4th
United States Artillery. The movements OF the
party were slow, and every effort was made to
keep the identity of the prisoner secret On
arriving at Terre Haute, Ind, the party were
compelled to lay over on account OF a break on
the Terre Haute and Richmond Railroad, and
for two days occupied rooms at the Te.Te Haute
House. Before arriving at Washington, perhaps
at the Relay House, Surratt was recognized by
acquaintances (for proof of which see dispatches
from Washington and Baltimore, about July TO-
1869. Since reaching Washington nothing has
been heard of Surratt. One hundred thousand
dollars was TO be paid for his capture.

Message of the Governor of Delaware.

Cove Salisbury, Governor of Delaware, sent
his message to the Legislature last week. The
first portion of the message is devoted to the
financial condition of the State. The total in
debtedness of the State is $l,110,0G0, except
$4,000 in bonds issued to the Delaware Rail
road Company, as surety for which there is
mortgage on the road, guaranteed by the Phlla-
delphia, Wilmington, and Baltimore Railroad
Company. The total amount of tax paid by the
road for eleven months, ending with october,
was $40, 1920. The condition OF the State banks
is next discussed, and the Governor recommends
that the Legislature grant authority for convert
ing them into National banks. The message
then contiDues:-
Experience has proved that The construction
and use OF railroads is the most rapid means of
developing the resources and increasing the
prosperity and material interests OF the State.
The construction and operation of the Delaware
Railroad has added greatly 10 the wealth and
convenience of the people of the State and espe-
cialy those residing in close proximity to it. 1t
is now being rapidly extended, by its connection
with Maryla road, through the Eastern Shore
OF Maryland to the waters of the Chesapeake,
and promises, when completed, still further TO
enhance the wealth and prosperity of the whole
section OF country through which it passes. The
Delaware and Maryland Railroad is no " in pro-
cess of rapid construction, and the expectation
of those having charge OF this improvement is,
as / am informed, that ii will be of immense
advantage to a very productive section OF Kent
county, greatly in need OF facilities ior trans
porting produce to market. The completion of
the Junction and Break water Railroad, from
Milford by way of Georgetown to Lewes, is a
consummation greatly desired not only by those
lying on the line OF the road, but by the people
of the whole State.

The FOrtificatiOns at MatamOras The
Man Who Built Them.

From the Nel1 Orleans PicdyHne.
We would mention as a TACT not heretofore
made public, we believe, that the forthcations
around Matamoras, which are becoming quite
complete, and have received much commenda-
ton from many skltul officers not in the Mexican
service have been constructed under the super
intendence of Major Felix A. Blucner, now a
colonel Of engineers in the Mexican service, and
a nephew OF the famous Prussian. The Major
resided many years in Southwestern Texas, and
has ever had the kndest relations with the
Mexican people His knowledge OF their Ian
guage, and his professional abilities, have made
him a most valuable friend to them, and they
repose the utmost confidence in him-a CONT
dence he has never betrayed. The promotion Of
the Major to a colonelcy was, doubtless, a tribute
to his personal as we'll as professional merits;
and his iavorte phrase, no hay Cuidddo, has an
opposite application to himself upon their part
"There is no fear" either as to his capacity or
fidelity.

A County Judge in Iowa makes off with
Thirty thousand Dollars

. The Burlington, Iowa, papers give the details
OF the disappearance of II. G. Ohrt, County
Judge of that county with funds to the tune OF
some thirty thousand dollars belonging to hls
German lellow-ctizens. The Hdlokeye saYs;-
For some time previous TO his disappearance
he was reported to be very sick and confined to
his bed, and his most intimate associates were
oenied admltance to his room. A few days after
this, however. he was upon the street, looking as
well a. usual, and some of his friends having eX-
pressed surprise al his sudden recovery, he eX-
planned that he was out of his head or tempora.
rlly insane and was not otherwise unwell.
On Tuesday last, the day of his departure, he
was again reported SICK but suspicion was not
aroused until Sunday wneh inquiry beng made
at mis- residence, bis wife reported that he had
gone to Illinois on business and being taken
sick he had not been able TO return This report,
in connection with his previous sickness and
other unusual circumstances, confirmed the sus-
picon that he had absconded. ON Monday,
when the new County Judge went to take pos
session of the office, the vault was found locked,
and no key to be obtained Mrs. Ohrt not know
ing its whereabouts. The lock was forced, and
the county records found in almost ineXtricable
confusion, no attention having been paid to them
apparently for months Mr. Onrt has always re-
taineo the confidence of his German fellow-cit-
zens up to the time OF his disappearance and
they had intrusted him with their money to a
considerable extent Many of them will feel the
loss deeply,

Yesterday morning Master Richard CoSer,
whose wonderful powers as vocalist have been
duly chronicled Mr.. Simpson, the graceful tenor

iayorte basso, who is well known amongst us,
and the father Of Master Coker, were presented
to the President and the members OF his house
hold by Mr.. Franklin, the organlst of Trinity

AT the request of the ladies of the Presidential
Mansion, a brief concert was improvised, Master
Coker singing several of his finest pieces,
assisted by Messrs. Simpson and Strini A
pleasant interview succeeded, in which the Pre-
sident, IN correction of some extravagant views
which Master Coker seemed to entertain relative
to the Presidential position, kindly suggested
that virtue and intelligence rather than place or
position were to be honoTed and desired. A
beautiful bouquet was presented to the lad by
Mrs. Johnson. Master Coker is about to go to
Europe. Washington Chronicle, 1871.
