A New Yorker of the name Of Campbell
has Just given to the world some queer reyc-
ations concerning the testimony lately adduc-
ed by the Judiciary Committee Of the House
tending to impl;cate Mr.. Davis in the assas-
sination plot. lie shows that gross system
of frauds and perjury has been resorted to
prove Mr.. Davis aud others conspirators in
the matter, and backs up his assertions by
facts that startle all who are familiar with the
testimony. 1t seems that many of the wit
nesses testified under assumed aames, and
that no such persons as the ostensible and
recorded witnesses exist In addition to this,
lie states that when Mr.. ConnorJ, who was
the principal witness or detectiye in the case,
was asked to proceed to New York and pro-
cure some coToborsting evidence Of bis own

RAPID DEc1ENsIoN.-We see in the
Baltimore Episcopal Nctho1ist, a letter
from the Rev G. K. Marshal, Of Missis-
sippi, in which ne says: a1
Il am preparing fer publication, in one
paper, an article On the relapse Of our
negroes into the vilest African supersti-
tions. The downward way, out here, is
frightful. Leading, old artful negroes are
carrying hundreds Of deluded fellows along
with them in the nese religion, which they
teach Among its first principles are the
following: that God who governed for
merly is dead; that the Yankee war over
threw Him; that he was slave of God
that Christ was the white mans slave; that
he upheld white folks in sustaining the
institution of slavery; that He is now
defunct; and that two old negro women
are elevated to the Christhood, and IN
vested with full authority and power to
manage the interest of the salvation.
If the freed people of Mississippi have
adopted such revolving superstitions in
twelve months, as are described by DR..
Marshal, what will be their moral condi-
ton five years hence? 1t will requirenthe
most energetic effort tosprevent them from
becoming converts to the most shocking
customs Of Africa. We must educate
these people or look for the worse conse
quenccs Of our folly.

The mourner banauets on memory ma
king that which seems the poison Of life its
aliment. During the hours Of regret we
recall the image Of departed joys, and in
weeping over each tender remembrance,
tears 50 softly shed embalm the wounds Of
grief. To be denied the privilege Of pour
ing forth love and our lamentations over
the grave Of one who in life was our hap
piness, is to shut up the soul Of the srrvi-
vor in solitary tomb, where the bereaved
heart pines in secret till it breaks with the
fulness Of uncommunicatcd sorrow; but
listen tothe mourner; give his feelingsway,
and, like the river rolling from the hills
into thevalley, they will flow with a gradu-
ally gentler stream, till they become lost in
times wide ocean.
