The Return of DR. Mudd.

DR. Mudd is described as little above the
middle height, with a reddish mustache and
chin whisker, high forehead and attenuat-
ed nose. He is thi1ty-fve years of age and
penniless. On a recent interview with a
N, Y. Herald reporter he narrated the story
Of Booths coming to his house on that fatal
April night, saying that he represented
himself as on a journey from Richmond to
Washington. The Doctor was first intro
duced to Booth in November, 1864, and
did not see him .again until the following
Christmas when t pc latter called upon him
and desired an introduction to John H. Sur
raft. He says: "Booth and l walked
along the avenue three or four blocks, when
we suddenly came across Surratt and WEIGH
man, and all four having become acquaint-
ed we adjourned to the National Hotel and
had around of drinks. The witnesses in
my case swore that Booth and l moved to
corner Of the room and were engaged for
an hour or so in secret consultation. That
was barefaced lie. The whole four of US
were in loud and open conversation all the
time we were together, and when we separ
ated we four never met again." During
hls call at the Doctors house, Booth men
toned the route he intended TO take, but
afterwards altered his mind. The Doctor
told the soldiers what Booth had said. and
was accused of seeking to lead them astray.
lie IS very bitter in his depunciation of the
military commission before which he was
tried. The witnesses periured themselves,
and while | was sitting there in that dock,
listening to their INDUSTRIOUS falsehood,
telt ashamed of my species and lost faith
forever In all mankind. That men could
stand up IN that court and take an oath be-
tore Heaven to tell the truth, and the next
moment set themselves to work to swear
away by downright perjur the life of a
fellow man was thing that | in my inno
cence OF the world never thought possible.
After was convicted and sent away to the
Dry Iortugas, confession was got up by
secretary Stanton, purporting to have been
made by me to Capt. button on board the
steamer, and afterwards appended to the
Official report of my trial. This was one
OF the most infamous lodges practiced
against me, and was evidently intended as
justification for the Illegally of my con-
vlctlon. | never made such confession,
and never could have made it, even if |
tried The Doctor talked at considerable
length on many other topics connected with
his Imprisonment. In replying to the re-
mark that his feelings must have been great
~ exercised at coming within sight Of his
Old home and meeting his wife once more,
he said with visible tremor, that words were
entirely inadequate 10 express the over
whelming emotions that filled his mind.

WE ARE GROWING Old.

We are growing old-how the thought will rise
When glance is backward cast
On some long remembered spot that lies
In the silence of the past ;
II may be the shrine of our early vows
Or the tomb of carly tears.
But 1t seems like far off isle to us,
In the stormy of years.
On wide and wild are the waves that part
Our steps from its greenness now,
And we miss the JOY of many heart,
And the light OF many brow;
For deep DER many stately bark
Have the whelming pillows rolled
That steered with us from that carly mark
Oh, friends we are growing old
Old in the dimness and the dust
OF daily tolls and cares,
Old in the wrecks of love and trust
Which our burthened memory bears.
Each form may wear to the passing gaze
The bloom of lfc's freshness yet,
And beams may brighten our latter days
Which the morning never met.
But, ali the changes we have seen,
In the far and winding way,
The graves in our paths that have grown green
And the locks that have grown gray
The winter still on our own may spare
The sable or the gold;
But we see their SHOWS upon brighter hair,
And, friends, we are growing old
We have gained the worlds cold wisdom now,
We have learned to praise and fear,
But where are living founts whose flow
Was a joy of heart to heart
We nave heard the wealth of many CLINE.
And the lore of many page;
But where is the hope that saw in time
But its boundess heritagei
Win it come again till the violet wakes,
And the woods their youth renew
We have stood in the light of sunny brakes,
Where the bloom is deep and blue,
And our souls might joy in the spring time then,
But the joy was faint and cold
For it could never give US youth again
