The surratt Case.

Very little that is new was elected in the trial
of Surratt on Saturday. Most of the evidence
taken related to Payne's part In the conspiracy.
Among the witnesses examined was Frederick
A. Seward, Assistant Secretary OF State 1t will
be remembered that he did not testify at the
trial of the conspirators. During the recital of
the scenes that took place at Mr.. Stewards house
when the attempt at assassination was made the
prisoner Surratt gave his whole attention to the
evidence, and seemed anxious to know OIL From
appearances the tale Of horrible crime did not
disturb the prisoners, conscience In the least.
The counsel for the prosecution are making q
strong case. Witnesses will be brought to prove
the guilt of Atzerodt, Herrold and the other con-
spirators. Then it will be proven that con-
spiracy existed; that its object the assassina
ton of President Lincoln and others; and at the
head and front OF this conspiracy was the pris-
oner John b. Surratt All, the minor evidence
within the next two days. When this is finished,
the prosecution will bring out evidence more
startling than any that has yet been given. The
scenes in the Court on Saturday were rather dull.
There was scarcely any cross -cxaminatiOn by
Surratt's counsel Mr. Merrick, one of Surratts
counsel, has, during most Of the trial, when al
luding to the lainented President Lincoln, men
toned him merely as Lincoln" not even giving
him the plain and simple title of Mr.. Lincoln
During the recess. yesterday, Surratt talked and
laughed with his brother and several others. The
prisoner seems to receive unusual treatment at
the Jail; he is not ironcd, but is allowed the
freedom of large room. In Court instead OF
being placed in the prisoners dock, he is given
seat with his counsel This is in marked con-
trast with the manner in which the other con-
spirators were kept During their trial they
were heavily handcuffed, with ball and chain at
tached to their ankles and in prison they were
chained to the floor The jury attented church
to-day in body, accompanied by officers of the
Court. They are kept under guard at the Seaton
House, and are driven out every evening in an
omnibus for the good of their health. q

1857, the following resolutions we're read and
adopted:
RssoEped, That we, the Republicans Of tbs
community have assembled in Council, here
to-day, for the purpose of organizing our
selves with the great National Republican
party of the United States, and to assist in
the work of restoring the State of North-
Carolina to her former relations with the
Federal government according to the acts OF
Congress.
Rssotred, That it is the duty Of every true
Republican to support and endeavor by
every lawful means to carry out the plan for
reconstruction proposed by the seth Con-
gress; that we will not vote tor any man to
Office whatever who is not true Republican
and does not advocate Union, Liberty and
Equality under the law.
Rssosced, That we fully endorse the plat
form adopted by the great National Repub-
lican party assembled in Convention in Ra-
leigh the 9th March, 1867. W.
Z ResolDed, That we recognize the hand of a
merciful providence inthe changes that have
been wrought in the land, and we invoke
His assistance and direction in the work now
devolving upon us, and pray them to bestow
upon us and upon our whole country his IA,
vor and blessing.
Resoloed That the future welfare of our
State demands that free schools for the edu
cation of all children irrespective Of race or
color should be guaranteed by constitutional
provision. as
Rssolped, That we love, adore and revere
the American flag, that proud emblem of
freedom which now floats above US, and we
pledge ourselves to protect it at all hazards.
Resolped, That we are opposed to the am
nesty pardon law passed by the late Legis-
lature Of North-Carolina, and denounce its
authors as unworthy servants.
Resolced, That we request Gen. Sickles to
make no appointment Of registers of voters
but such as are truly loyal Union men and
who were so from the beginning of the re-
bellion and remained SO to the end.
Resofsed, That the North Carolina Stan
dar1-that reliable and never finching Re-
publican journal-in its unceasing efforts to
maintain liberty and law, truth and justice,
and equal rights to all, meets our approval.
Rcsolced, That copy of these resolutions
be sent to the NorthC Carolina Standard for
publication, with the request that other loyal
papers copy. sas

Fellow citizens, the Republican party is not in
favor oft. If it is am deceived-and should 1t be

Republican party, you will see the Union whites

leading Republicans of the North and South OPP
pose it. Every canvasser who has been sent
South, to promote the interest of the Republican
party declares positively that they are opposed to
it. If the South win grant suffrage to the col

last elections, and elect men who are untrue to

there is no telling what will be the conquences.

party and elect none but Republicans to office,
and You will see that they are not the unchris-

Mexican News-.the Times ON Sheridan.
New ORLEANS, June 25.
A dispatch from Galveston says that an
Austrian passed through that City to-day
en- route North, representing himself to be an
officer of Macmillan. He states that the
Emperor had been pardoned on condition
that he would leave the country as soon as
the ports of Tampico and Vera Cruz are
opened for his departure.
The Times, of this morning, commenting
severely upon Sheridan's telegram to Gen.
Grant, says it contains gross inaccuracies of
fact, and errors of logic. If the conduct and
language of this remarkable document meets
the sanction Of any considerable portion of
the American people, the Constitution had
better be consigned at once to the flames,
and the Republic delivered to anarchy and
chaos. h5gf rs Is

81 OUTRAGE BY ALABAMA Ex-REBELs.-In-
formation has been received in Washington of
the fact that Captain D. H.. Bingham, of
Athens, Alabam, was brutally set upon while
on a recent visit to his home in that place,
by a number of ex-rebels, who dragged him
from his bed at night. gagged and beat him,
and left him in the woods, where he re-
manned until found the next day. Captain
BIS offence was that of being staunch IN
ionist throughout the war, and opposing the
political schemes of notorious rebels since
its close. Captain Bingham, at the close of
the war would have been appointed Provis-
ional Governor of Alabama, had not Mr..
Lincoln been assassinated, when Governor
Parsons succeeded in securing the position
from Mr.. johnson.
