WASHINGTON, June 17,-Surratts
trial was resumed to-day. Judge Fisher
presided, and Judge Carter was also on
the bench, and ordered the opening of
the June term and discharged the grand
aud petit juries for two weeks. Mr..
Bradley, the counsel for the defense, sub
mitted an affidavit of Surratt's, stating
that his meal were exhausted and
praying for an order that a pro-
cess may be issued TO summon wit
nesses and compel their attendance
according TO the statute in such cases
made and provided. The argument on
b motion was postponed. Judge
Fisher asked the counsel if they were
ready to proceed with the trial. Mr..
Conington said the assistant district at
torney would open the case. Nathaniel
Wilson, the assistant, then addressed the
jury for the prosecution, and Mr.. Brad
ley answered for the defense, ~reserving
their opening remarks to the jury, M
asked for a list OF the witnesses
for the prosecution. Mr. PierpOnt de-

Col. Henry, r. r. RothbOne, Col.

but the evidence developed nothing
against the accused. One James Day, a
recruiting sergeant, testified that he saw
Surratt in company with Booth in
Washington, on the night of the assas-
sination, and the prosecution closed
the examination. Mr.. Bradley an
swered that the defense would cross

You say that at the approaching cleo.
lions the old planters threaten to elect
negroes rather than the bastard philan-
thropists thar the abolitionists have sent
south to misiead the negroes and scourge
the white people. This is probably the
best thing they a do under present cir
eumstanees. I see that the Wilson's,
Haywoods and luminous, OF Massaehu-
sets, are doing their best TO stir up STRIFE
between the white and black populations
&C tue south, and have frequently been
successful ID their efforts. L have loag
been Of b opinion that these v~agabonds
rom The north would continue their mis-.
ehieYous practices until the whole south
ern country would be again in arms.
and probably the north also; in which
case 1t is not difficult TO predict who
would be driven TO the wall.
You know I was W pr~o-slaveryfte
but after Massachusetts had pirated more
negroes from Africa than all the southern
states together, and then forced them
upon the southern market, in many eases
against the wishes and protestations OF
the south, nothing could be more mean
and despieable than for these wretehes to
provoke the south to attempt separation.
well reeollect the conduct Of Massa-
chusetts in the war OF 1872. In plain
language she threatened a dissolution of
the union; her ministers, Morse, Parish.
Gardiner and Spring, Leading ministers
in and about Boston, preached treason
aud the {" nation Of New England as
much as the southern ministers ever
preached secession. Then Durham, of
the Windsor Wdshiagt0nian, the Boston
Repository, Boston Palladium, and Bos-
ton Gazette, threatened treason as much
as the Richmond press ever did in the
days of secession; then the secret politi-
cal societies Washington benevolent
that paraded every town and hamlet
then the mission Of John Henry and his
letters dated at Burlington, Montpelier
and Windsor, Vermont, Amherst, New
Hampshire, and Bosten, to Gov. Craig,
of Can1n saying in substance that be
found the leaders all right, and the only
thing then to be done was to find a mill
tary leader and all this deviltry culmi-
mated in the Hartford convention.
The treaty Of Client closed the
war, and the adjourned meeting
of the Hartford convention took
place. Now, 70 hear these descendants
of the old Massachusetts rebels pirate
about southern rebels and talk about con-
fiscating their estates, seems to me like
the extreme of meanness. What Ihave
said about Massachusetts, politics and
treason Is l0hGt TEnOW. Can you blame
me for being a democrat?
Ishau be much pleased If you will oe-
c~asiouaIly employ a leisure hour in writ
ing to me. Let me know if the devils
p%rovidences continue to prevail. Since
the New Hampshire and Connecticut
elections the blacks are looking pretty
sober. They see that in the north yer
their days will soon be numbered.
