A SATISFACTORY ExPLASArIoS.-Atan gi
BILE reason why the stars didn't shoot las,
month as advertised. The awkward mis-
take is explained asfollows:
When the mologistic temperature Of tho
horizon is such as coloricise the imperien,
indeutatlon ofthe hemisphere analogy, the
cohesion Of the borax curbistns became
surcharged with infnitesimals, which are
thereby virtually deprived. ofthe fissural
disqaisitions. This effected, and rapid
change is produced in the thoraumber o,
the gympasticustus palerium, which causes
convacular in the hexagonal aatipathes
of the terre .trium aqua yersula. Clouds
then become q mass Of deodotomlzed
specu'e of ceremocular light, which can
only be seen when it is visible.

And SO during the late terrible war the

even the lightest, most fashionable, and

have formed theme for praise the wide

national struggle for independence has
been told-wbereyer the fame Of our gal
liant soldiers has spread-and where has it
not? there also has the noble devotion Of
our women to dear though fallen cause
been likewise heralded ty the trumpet
voice Of Fame. And this satisfactorily
proves that under all the surface of frivoli
ty and fashionable follies Of our women
there lies solid substratum Of sound

The Confessions Of Surratt.

The statement which we published yester.
day from our Montreal correspondent fully
bears out the views which we recently OK.
pressed regarding the alleged completely OF
JEFF. Davis and his Cabinet with the assas.
sination plot. We never entertained a
doubt of the falseness of the charge. No
man in MIR. Davis position could possibly
have lent a moments attention TO the con.
slderation ofsuch plan, for the simple
reason that it would have ruined him in the
esteem and confidence ofthe very people
whom it was intended to serve. The idea
could have only originated in the brain Of a
fanatic aud been worked out by character
less and deprayed instruments. Che state
ments made by Surratt, in Montreal, before
his departure for Europe, are consistent
with the conclusions Of all unpreiudiced
minds, and are more to be relied on than
any that he may have made since his arrest.
seeing that the latter are, in all probability,
influenced by the hope of pardon. His ac-
count of The original scheme was that it was
intended to seize and carry off Mr.. Lincoln
to Richmond and hold him as q hostage
there for the Southern prisoners. It was
among the rebel conspirators stopping at
st. Lawrence Hall, in Montreal, that the
plan was change to assassination, Wilkes
Booth Offering to perform tie deed. Mel.
ther the names Of Jefferson Davis nor An.
drew johnson were mentioned in connec-
ton with the plan, and Surratt protested
that neither Of them knew any hing Of their
Intentions. 1t seems absurd to couple Mr..
Johnson's name with this statement /; but
such efforts have been made by his radical
enemies to involve him in previous
of the conspiracy that it is but
tight that this emphatic contradiction from
'ne OF the chief actors in the plot should
have as wide a circulation as possible. For
Dur own part we repeat that the completely
