JEFF. DAvIs.-There does not seem
to be any probability that tLe arch traitor
JEFF Davis will be brought to trial for his
crimes for some months to come, at least
not until next spring This is shown by
the correspondence between the President

Court, 1t is said, cannot meet in Rich

will be no opportunity. The despatch
says that process from the State courts

possibility of pardon or a release on pa

THE issue in the States yet to hold
elections in the year 1865, is strictly de-
fincCi and accepted to be between the Peo-
pie and the President; whether the Pres
iaent has TIE power to usurp the fune-
toDs of the Legislature branch Of the
Government, and thus ignore the right
of the representatives Of The people to
make laws for the government OF the
couatry. 1t would seem as if the people,
after having reserei the GeveTnn' n
from rebellion, are determined by their
action at the ballot box strictly to defire
what they expect their servants to do.

VALUE OF OUR CROPS.

DR. Loring, in his address before the
Vermont State Tar, stated thst, in 1916,
che total value of the principal crops was
s3361000 ,000 in 1861 this value reached
736,5SG. .326 in the loyal STATES alone,
excluding all the cotton, rice and tobacco
of the States then in rebellion. In the
twenty-one States upon whose crops the
computation of 1861 has been made, we
may estimate the grain crop of 1866 to
be worth $500, 100000. OF the cotton
crop we can hardly estimate the value
when subjected to free labor.

The House sat in committee of the whole

interest was taken in the proceedings.

made yesterday was one from Mr. Washbnrne

claims adversely on forty petitions for DANA
ges arising from the raids made in July 1864,
by the rebels in the vicinity of Fort Stevens,

to provide for aseertaining and adjusting the

Getting Married Under Dime ulttes-
Love Trium pha ant,

The Quincy Herald of Sunday, the 25th
ultimo, tells the following romantic but true
story; :" A gentleman and lady in ST, Louis
were about to be married TO which the broth.
er of the lady objected They therefore left
St. Louis for Quincy, intending to marry as
soon as possible after their arrival They ar.
rived on Saturday, and stopped a, boa riding
house near the depot. On the Monday fol-
lowing they went out for the purpose of making
the necessary purchases for their wedding
and on returning to their boarding house
we're not a little surprised 10 see the brother
mentioned above, who was in pursuit OF
them, step from train which had just arrived,
and go toward the house where they were
stopping. They then wended their way
down along the shore of the river for the
purpose OF holding consultation, and ere
they knew If, had arrived AT the lower end of
the city. Here now began series of acci.
dents which nearly every one will consider as
hard to believe. but yet are nevertheless true
Having arrived at a certain place, dog
spraug upon the young lady, tearing her shaw
from her shoulders. The gentleman drew
his pistol and fired upon the dog. whereupon
he ran Off taking the shawl with him He
would have pursued the dog, but hearing
steps, thought their pursuer was upon them
Tne cries which were heard came from the
Young lady. caused bv losing her shawl and
the critical condition they were then in: they
then ran towards the river, and the fatigue
and hard walking caused the Young lady 5
nose to commence bleeding, which accounts
for the bloody handkerchief found bv the po-
hceman. At this juncture they heard voices
and steps from all sides. which caused them
to quicken their speed, and If possible to
reach the Missouri shore On arriving about
half way across, they came to an opening in
the ice. across which they we're compelled TO
jump, and having as yet. up to this time, car
red their old clothes with them. and which
had been replaced with new ones. the gentle
man suddenly conceived the idea to cast them
down in the hope f brinein, their pursuers
to halt. In this he succeeded, so much so,
that as soon as they found the clothes. further
pursuit was abandoned. Arriving safely on
the Missouri side. they we're compelled to
pass the night in the woods. Next morning
they took the train for Palmyra and were
made " bone of one bone and flesh of
one flesh, = in that place, on the following
Thursday. The gentleman also SAYS he
thinks he wounded the dog, which accounts
for the bloody shawl. which was also found
BY the policeman. He further says that since
they are man and wife. he hopes that his
dear, kind brother in-law is satisfied; that
they are, if he is not.
