THE REAPER.

There is reaper whose name is Death,
And with his sickle keen,
he reaps the bearded grain at . breath
And the flowers that grow between.
"Shall have nought that is fair" said he,
"Have nought but the bearded grainf
Though the breath Of those flowers Is sweet TO me,
Twin give them all back again."
He gazed at the flowers with fearful eyes,
he Kissed their droo, ing leaves;
It was Tor the Lord OF Paradise
He bound them In his aheayes.
.ldy Lord has need Of these fowerets gay
The reaper said and smiled;
sDear tokens Of the earth are they,
Where He was once Q child"
.sThey shall an bloom IN fields Of Light,
Transplanted by my care,
And saints upon their garments white
These sacred blossoms wear"
And the mother gave, In tears and pain.
The flowers abe most did love;
She krew she should find them all again,
In the fields OF light above.
Oh, not In cruelty, not in wrath,
The reaper came that day;
Twas IN ange. visited the green earth
And took the flowers away.

Mr.. EDITOR The closing scenes of the
great assassination conspiracy are now in
progress On the 1ith of April 1865, the
world stood a. hast at the most horrible crime
on the records of history Ten persons were
implicated in the assassination Of Abraham
Lincoln, namely Booth, Atzcrodt, Herold
Payne, Spangler, Mudd, Arnold, 0'Laughlin,
Mrs. Surratt and John H. Surratt The rec
ords of the country show that Booth was shot
by Boston Corbett; Mrs. Surrat., Payne and
Atzerodt were hanged, and Mudd, 0 Laughlin
Spangler and Arnold were sent to the Dry
Tortugas. But one of the whole ten escaped

Egypt lie was grappled and brought back to
the scenes Of his murderous exploits. His trial
is now in progress and has been for some
time. All thu ohgh the long, weary and op.
pressiyely hot days he sits in the court room
criminal, subject to the scrutiny and close
observation of thousands. The whole plo, is
revealed, and thread by thread the chain of
evidence is accommodating against him. What
must be his feelings? With only his brother
and sister to offer words of consolation. His
companions in crime either in the cold and
silent grave or on the coast of Florida far
away. They can render no assistance. Yet
he seems to bear up under his misfortuues.-
Yesterday visited the court room which was
dcnsely thronged. Weichman the principal
witness was ON the stand. Surratt eyed him
closely during the time he testified l thought
l could trace in his countenancc a sort of con-
tempt for Weichman who has done SO much to
aid III the conviction of those who were exc,
cuted by Military Commission. The evidence
against Surratt is conclusive. 1t has been
clearly proven that he was here on the night
Of April IA, and that he was seen in front of
Fords Theatre a few moments before The fatal
jury are not secessionists he will doubtless be
found guilty-but if they are he will be pun
ished lightly. A Washington jury cannot be
depended upon.
The fourth of July is close at hand but
nothing has been done preparatory to celc-
bration. The people Of Washington are not
noted for their love Of this great day. It's
celebration has not been matter of much con-
sideration with them for many years. The
weather is 50 warm now that the people have
not energy to do anything

were really the parties who were entitled to
benefits. During the month of Jane, 1857
claims were received. Over nine thousand
claims were disposed Of, and ths whole de-

country more than twenty four thousand cir
