for the murder of the late President Lin

had any knowledge of. it.a.aThe writer
also adduces some strong argument to
show that DR.. Mudd, Arnold O Laugh
lin, Spangler and John H. Surratt had

that of course neither of those parties had
anything whatever to. do with it: He ar
CUES, and if the statements. made prove
true it would seem efectually. that John
Wilkes Booth, the acknowledged head
and front of the conspiracy, only made up
bis mind to the rash deed a few hours be-
fore it was ,perpetrated. On the Good
Friday during the evening of which the
| President was killed, Booth rose at an
unusually late hour, and breakfasted with
L. young lady guest at the National Hotel.
He then walked ,leisurelv to the house of
Mrs. sSurratt. the writer surmises for the

The Parade OF tn. Fifth Cavalry at
ChapticO.@

Inc Parade OF the Filth Cavalry at
We copy the following from the St.
Mary's Beacon Of last week:
The order for the Second Law Parade
Of the Maryland National Guards on
Monday last. tie 9th instant, was obeyed
by the 5th Cavalry Battalion, Major y ]
Parran Crane cammanding, by the seve-
raj companies assembling at the village of
Chaptico. ~ .y---t -T...s-
At about two o'clock, the Battalion was
formed by the Adjutant, Lieut.. J. H.
Parsons, Immediately in the village. Capt
James Waring occupying the right; Capt
W. Fl. Guyther the left; Capt. Chas. Il.
Cough the right centre. and Capt. H. c..
Page the left centre. The beautiful flag,
which formerly belonged to Capt. Cox
celebrated Charles county company, and
since transferred to Capt Pages company,
was borne with proud and gallant bearing
by Ensign Gardiner. -. ,....0
After its formation. the command
mounted, and, in full uniform, was march
ed out short distance to field, owned
by Mrs. Hayden. who had kindly tender
ed it for the occasion. In this field the
drill commenced, and was executed in a
manner to do credit to veteran soldiers
The martial appearance and bearing of
the different companies, as they went
through the different evolutions Of the
Battalion drill. elected great applause
from the large number Of ladies and gen.
tlemeu. who had assembled upon the field
and at the village to witness the parade.
! The drill was concluded with '.dress
parade" upon the field; aud. when the
officers had marched to salute the Major,
aud had halted in his immediate front. he
was heard, in dismissing them, to impress
upon them the necessity of carrying out
the law against every member of their
commands absenting himself from law
parades.
Upon leaving the ground, three cheers
were proposed and given by Capt. Pages
company to Major Crane and his staff,
which we're responded to in short speech
by the Major. In nearing the gate, lead
ing from the field. Captains Warning
Guyther and Cough halted and fronted
their companies in line, and, as Captain
Page passed with his company in columns
of fours up the front, each commanding
officer in succession proposed three cheers
to Capt. Page, his officers and men, they
bearing their heads in receiving the com.
pfiment. The captain, having marched
the entire front, faced his company to thu
''left- about" and in turn gave three cheers
to the officers and men of each company
as he passed them. The other companies
INDUCED in the same compliment towards
each other upon arriving ia the village
During the whole parade many Of the
fair sex of ST. Mary's and her sister coun'
ty. Charles, were present, whose bright
eyes and smiling faces lent additional zes,
and interest to the occasion.
We are bappY to say that exeE2thina

tcrislisrticle ia the National Latelligemcer:
To speak particularly and practically.
when the Baltimore and Potomac road
reaches this city the food staples Of the
West will pass through Baltimore direct
fof Washiugson. and our merchants will
be et once relieved from paying freights
upon, the rouadabout route of seventy-fve
miles. now traversed by consignments from
the West to Washington upon the Balti-
more and Ohio railway. and also be re-
lieved. from the vast cost, in a term Of
years. arising from delays Of commodities
at Baltimore, with transhipments, &c. -,
The more We consider the matter of the
Incorporation, construction, and prospec-
tive operation of the Baltimore and Poto.
mao railway, the more are we satisfied
that it isean enterprise which will be in
the highest degree compromising. In its
extension to Aqua Creek it will command
fhe Southern through travel. both to the
North and back. Through it's prospec-
tfveEextensiouiby a branch route toward
Point Lookout. it will amonopolize the
oyster carrying trade to the West. As
lower Maryland is two or three weeks
earlier in the season than Baltimore, or
even; Washington, the carriage by rail of
its garden products and its fruits will be
a source Of great income. The. road will
also bring anthracite coal from the mines
to this city in. trains Of cars, without trans
fer or breaking bulk. - ga
The Baltimore and Potomac railway is
the club of Hercules to destroy. our ene-
mics! And We are glad to observe that
in view Of the rapid steps that are being
taken in its construction, there is assur

It is q certain truth, that man is
rever so hasty, or SO little imposed
upon, as among people of the best

stantly in good humor with himself
and with others, is no very easy
task
