party to a conspiracy to abduct Mr..
Lincoln, and others of the conspira-
tors murdered him. Surrat. should
be convicted of the murder, though
it was no PAL, of the original plan
and he knew nothing at all sbout it,

OuR FuTuRE,-Thc San Antonio
Herald, distinguished for its solid
ability and sound judgment, ms well
as for its watchfulness Of the signs Of
the times, endorses n sensible article
in the Victoria Advocate with the
following we'll timed remarks:
I'VE firmly believe that the quick.
est way to kill of the Radical party
and it's Radical Congress, is TO Jet
them have full sway--to in,crposc no
further opposition TO them. Any
opposition that the South can offer
will only protract our sferipss, and
most probably end in further disfran.
chisement and possibly coufscaiion.
If the Conservatives withdraw all op-
position to radicalism, a split is sure
to take place in its ranks that will
much more speedily weaken and de-
stroy il than anything the Conserve.
tivcs could do by their cfForta, which
efforts, indeed, we k.ow would only
tend to prolong our dis,rcsses by
keeping our oppressors united and
triumphant. From these consiiesA-
tions, ii is easily seen that We arc
