TIE WIRz TRAGEDY-AsTouNDING REV.
ELATIoN. The Richmond correspondent
of the New York World communicates
the following, which, if true, may well be
regarded as highly important. Unhap-
PLY the circumstances Of the case, and the
facts already known in regard to the acts
of Stanton and Holt in connection with
this matter, are all Of q nature to credit
this revelation.
at is, perhaps, not generally known
that during the Incarceration ofWirz and
Major Windcr in the Capitol Prison, they
occupied adjoining cells, and enjoyed
facilities of communication, one to the
other, by word or writing, through an
aperture not observed, doubtless, by the
jailor. No one was permitted to see
either, unless by special privilege from
the Secretary of War. On the night
previous to the execution Of Wirz, three
men entered his cell, Of course by per-
mission of Stanton, and proposed TO him
that if he would agree to implicate jeff
Davis in the alleged conspiracy to starve
the Northern prisoners confined at An,
dersonyillc, his life would be spared
Wirz replied that he would not save his
own life by sacrificing that Of another in
noccnt man The parties thcrcupon left
the cell, and Wirz Immediately communi-
Gated all that had transpircd to Major
Windcr, The Major some time after met
Mrs, Davis in New York, and revealed to
her what is here stated, backing it by an
affidavit, which he gave her, and which
she now holds. The trial of Davis would
involve revelations which would shock
humanity. and test to its fullne5s what
ever sense Of justice or feeling Of nation
al pride is still left ut the North 1t is not
unreasonable TO presume that popular in
dignation would be aroused to pitch
that would render il unsafe for the con
coctors Of the vile plans devised to secure
the sacrifice Of Davis life, to prolong
their residence among people whose
fame and character the so grossly out
ragged"

The Princess OF WALEs.--A cor

The Princess OF WALEs.--A cor
respondent in London writes as follows:
GAN London IS stirred to its lowest
depths at the sickness of the Princess Of
Wales. She is very sick-much more so
than the press are allowed to state. There
is great superstition about the Princess
Of Wales. England has not had one
since the death Of Princess Charlotte,
whose early death the nation SO deeply
mourned 1t is the faith of the nation
that it is y fatal position, and many have
predicted that Alexandria would not hold
the position long. And now it is feared
that her sickness is unto death. lis !p
The princess has wide, spread popu.
larity. Except Charlotte, no one has
ever been so popular. She is very hand
some and amiable. She has now three
children, and emulates her royal mother.
in-law in her devotion to her household.
She has also a warm heart Her name
is household word in the homes of the
lowly. The institution for sick children
is under her especial charge When well
she visited it constantly, and filed the
house with toys and tokens Of her care
and good will. .,........'..',.''.. '....
The attempt to compel the Queen to
dwell in London and make q show Of
royalty has about been abandoned. The
coming of the princess was hailed with
rapturc-so young, SO amiable, so elc-
giant, 50 graceful and courtly-withal the
daughter of king. She met with a
warm welcome, and seemed to promise
revival of the splendors of royalty. Her
sickness is lamentcd, her death would be
greatly deplorcd.'

A BEAUTIFUL ILLrsTRArIoN.--If one
should give me dish Of sand and tell me
there were particles of sand in it, might
look for them with my eyes, and search
for them with my clumsy fingers, and be
unable to detect them but let me take a
magnet and sweep through it, and how
would it draw to itself the most invisible
particles by the mere power of attraction |!
The unthankful heart, like my finger in
the sand, discovers no mcrcies but let
the thankful heart sweep through the day,
and as the magnet finds the iron, SO it
will find in every hour some heavenly
blessings; only the iron in Gods sand is

Letter from Gov. Throckmorton

/ Gov Throckmorton, of Texas, III 4
letter addressed TO Col. Ashbel Smith, OF
Texas, gives his views concerning the
policy to be pursued by the late insur
rectionary States under the Military Re
construction Act. He writes:
By prompt action in accepting the
selves release from the terrible sus
pcnse, 50 injurious to every interest OF
the country, in which we have been in
volved since the surrender, BY non-ac-
tion we leave the State government to be
controlled 10y the military as long rs il
may please Congress to permit it, with
the certainty in the future that it will be
superseded or abolished. BY such apoli-
cy we. invite further prescriptions and
discriminating legislations, when we are
utterly powerless and unable to avoid any
thing that may be imposed. BY availing
ourselves of the terms offered we may
not preserve liberty yet we may preserve
life all prevent further humiliation. We
may also lay the foundation for future
restoration to perfect equality with the
other States in the Union and we may
/ place ourselves in a condition to aid the
great patriotic masses of the nation in
restoring the nation to its original purity.
feel an abiding confidence that the
people of Texas will not falter or prove
indifferent. Every citizen of the State,
however exalted or humble his sphere,
should feel that his country demands of
him prudent and efficient service, and
that his services may be more potent for
good now than at any future period
Every one who is entitled should register
and vote at the. proper time, and those
who are disfranchised should encourage
others that are not The best and wiseSt
men who are allowed to sit should be Sc
lected for members to the convention
No impcdiment should be thrown in the
way of the newly enfranchised class, but
every reasonable means and encourage
ment should be extended to them, in or
der that they may enjoy without hin
drance their new privileges. They are
in no wise responsible for the present
state Of things, and should this extraor-
dinary enlargement of the right of suf-
frage tend to the destruction Of republi-
can institutions, or to the decentralization
and ruin of the blacks, they are not re
spOnsible. Hereafter they are to be tie
people Of the South, an element ofpolticol
power and strength if wisely and properly
treated"
On this same subject, in response to an
Arkansas editor who discouraged action
under the military act, and said we will
remain under military rule" the New Or
leans Picoyune says:
"But you cannot and will not remain
under military rule you will have a gov
ernmcnt made for you, if you do not make
it for yourselves under the military bills.
If you vote down convention, you who
thus vote will be disfranchiscd by a sup
Elemental bill, and then none but. black
and white Radicals will have any voice at
all in the Government. Nothing can be
more wild than the idea that there is any
mode of action or posture of inaction
which can avoid the issue. Organize or
emigrate! That is the only alternative

The Jamaica Trials.

One of the most remarkable events OF
modern days is the charge which the
Lord Chief Justice of England delivered
recently in the Criminal Court, relative. to
the charge of murder in Jamaica against
Col Nelson and Lieut. Brand, arising out
of the execution of Mr.. Gordon. The
delivery extended over six hours, and is
regardcda rs masterpiece of legal ability.
The charge was delivered to the Grand
Jury, and, although true bill was not
found, the opinions of the Lord Chiei
Justice are regarded as laying down the
law of England in reference to the iunc
tons OF the military in times of martial
law, and the protection of citizens under

CoNFIsCATIoS The Providence Jour
nal one Of the leading Radical Republi
can papers of New England, commenting
upon Mr.. Stevens proposed confiscation
measure, says:
Considering that it was no outburst Of
passion, but was prepared in cold blood,
by the oldest and most influential mem
her of the House, il is the indication Of
character and the foreshadowing Of a
policy which should be carefully noted by
the American people. The speech is able,
clearly conceived and tersey expressed:
hut il is pervadcd from beginning to end
with that vindictive and rcmorseless spirit
which is inseparably associated with Mr..
Stevens public character. He scouts the
doctrine of forgiveness Of injuries, and
puts his own construction upon the par.
able of the Prodigal Son He would
wholly obliterate everything like tender.
ness and mercy from our policy towards
the people Of the South.
The bill has been postponed to Decent
Der. But the very conception is appall.
ing, and he must have an iron heart who
could calmly sit down and deliberately
work ont its details of ruin and woe TO
some six millions of his fellow. country
men. 1t would convert the South into
desert and make its people beggars.-- ~
Should it pass, it would bring reproach
on the country which nothing could re-
move and the hard and cruel spectacle
that would be presented BY its enactment
would of itself annhilate all that is gen.
erous and noble in American character.
Heaven deliver us from such legislation
as this which Mr.. Stevens proposes. .w
