PLAYED our.-While the Governor has
clement season, devoting his whole energies
so making the resources and necessities of the
Territory known. and TO promoting the best
interests Of its people, three re-headed and
malignant demagogues have spent much OF
the winter at Washington in plotting for his
removal. These three ex-ofRcials, who
inwardly detest each other as the devil does
holy water, but all Of whom think with rea-
son) the Governor has been in the way of
their selfish aims, formed an alliance in De
cember for prosecuting the dirty business Of
jealousy and revenge-or as they put it, Of
" getting even" Their plans and misrepre-
sensations were as varied as INSCRIPTIONS
and desperate. Now they worked with no
apparent connection; anon they openly pull
ed together Their favorite scheme, as
we are informed, was, il possible, to make the
President believe the Governor antagonistic
10 him, and so to secure his removal, and
then in the same breath to represent TO the
the Senate that the Governor was unfriendly
10 Congress, and so TO insure the prompt con
frrnation Of a successor. But unfortunately,
as Burns has it,

The unprincipled alliance lost sight Of the
significant fact that they were wholly with

to put it stronger, that they were very dead

cent Washington special to the New
York Herald says.
" II is the opinion Of persons high in
authority and influence here, that the
trial of John III. Surratt will be ulti.
mately abandoned. The impression is
that there is general conviction pre-
vailing in official quarters that the un.
fortunate Mrs. Surratt was not guilty OF
the crime for which she was executed,
aud that the trial Of her son would only
result in more clearly establishing that
fact Such development, of course,

tration and others concerned in the trial
and condemnation of the mother. There
is another cause, however, not very
creditable, assigned why the President
would not wish the trial to occur; but,
as it would cast a deep slur upon the
character of one who has not lately
been sleeping on bed of roses, refrain
from giving it publicity. 1t might only
be creating another sensation, and, per.
haps, without Justification, for the graft :
fication of scandal-mongers. However
this may be, it is not believed that the
evidence in possession of the Govern
ment will warrant the trial of John III.
Surratt.
At the time of the execution of Mrs.
Surratt hundreds and thousands believed
her innocent. Indeed, every one should
have believed her innocent in the letter
of the law, which expressly declares that
AL persons should be deemed innocent
until proven to be guilty" and Mrs.
Surratt was not proven guilty-but abso-
lutely proven to be innocent; and yet
the shoulder. strap gentry composing the
military commission before which she
could only have mock trial at best,
pronounced her guilty, and said she
must die, and the President, not pos
sessing the courage to prevent the exc
cution of this foul wreng-yes, this
bloody murder-approved the sentence,

and thus was written the blackest page
upon American history and now those
in authority at Washington fear to try
John II. Surratt by jury composed of
his countrymen, lest the innocence of
his mother should be proven, and the
public sentiment of the country turned
against them for the wrong they have
done But vince as they may, and
