JOHN Snrrnlt.
From U,e ~. Y. 7ri0tme.

Ffon The ~. Y. ITiDtue.
The confessions OF Arnold and Atzerodt re-
Rtive to the assassination of President Lincoln
give Hs the testimony of two participants in
the crime and yet disinterested witnesses,
Laken while John Surratt was a fugitive Ia
Canada, very clearly to the effect tnat Jonn
Burratt was, next to Wilkes Booth, the pre-
siding organizer of the assassination. Arnold
who is now serving out his time in the Dry
TortuRas but whose confession was takeu
four days after the murder, shows that during
Iba earlier stages of the plot, and while 1t was
merely a plan to kidnap the President the
,oipcT actors in the tragedy saw little OF Sur
rat. but Wilkes Booth was always ''pressed
Tvit6 business" with Surratt, and in daily and
anpsrently engrOssing CONFIDENTIAL oommu-
,,icefion with him. Surratt was present at
fbe first meeting OF the seven oonsplrators,
-nd seems to have arranged very sly ana
60 gsie for himself. While Arnold was
20 rush into the private box OF the
sIeatre and seize the President, and
ntgarodt and Booth were to handcun MIN and
So,ror him 10 the stage and others were TO put
ont The lights and carry him to the coach, al
of which was an obviously hair brained
Saben,e Surratt was to wait "On the other
Side of The Eastern Branch bridge to facilitate
escape" 1t would seem strange that Booth
ebonId need constantly to advise with one who
was 10 bear so slight and cowardly hand In
sbe busiuess if Booth were the originator OF
tbe crime. But if surratt were the, inspirer
Of the murder, it is easy to see how he might
have moulded the boldcoursge Of Booth to carry
ont the promptings of his more guilty and
subtle heart, and how Booth himself may have
been SO impressed by Surratts superior bold
ness in guilt as to have overlooked his superior
caution In avoiding danger. Arnold denounced
fhe plan as impracticabe, and withdrew from
the entire conspiracy before it had developed
into plot to assassinate.
Atzsiodt declares that the plan to kidnap
was first changed to one Of assassination at 8
O'Clock on the evening of the murder: About
the middle of March, the seven conspirators-
Booth, Surratt, O'Laughlin, Arnold, Payne,
Atzerodt, and Harold-had a plan by which
the others were to capture the President, and
Surrstt, as the best driver, was to drive the
coach over the Long Bridge into Virginia. 1t
failed because the President did not pass the
place at which they were expecting and way
laying him. When the plan was changed
from kidnapping, 5urratt had just had an in
terview with Booth. The impression left by
these confessions is that Booth was the bold
fanatic, and Surratt the cunning and cautious
insnired of the deed.

We have sometimes thought that II would
be good plan to give no man anything who
asked for II, ofice-sesking being taken as
proof irrefragable of decided incompetency.
Commissions might be sent out (lest the pub
lie service should suffer- in pursuit of modest
merit. Truth might be sought in the bottom
of the wells, fidelity in corners, and capacity
among the unobtrusive. But these are
dreams, No man can be considered lit TO
serve the Republic in the humblest position
unless he has twenty five yards Of signatures
in his pocket. Perhaps not even them inns rms
is a world in which some are happy ana some
"mees erable." We must take 1t as IL goes

the war, has become pandemic among omjials
in these weak, piping times OF peace. Unrea-
sonable delays and references, and constant
demands for more evidence, amounting to
demonstration, weary the most indefatigable,
ard change respect for the Government aud
love for the country and its institutions into
contempt and hatred.
We regret that this is true Of every depart
ment of the Government. II is a well-known
fact that the Quartermaster's Department,
under the statute OF July, 1854, has exclusive
ia rif diction in the settlement of all claims
Tor forage furnished the Government, with or
without vouchers, and claims OF this nature,
when hled In that department, are re'erred to
youthful chancellOrs or solicitors-boys whose
cbins are innocent of beards-who never read
a law book-mere tyros, whose reports upon
claims involving thousands of dollars and the
last hopes of many claimants, favorable or un-
favorable, receive the signature Of the Quar-
termaster General without further investiga-
ton; and the patriotic citizen who furnished
the Government with the means of perpetual
ing its own existence in its days of greatest
trial, through the ignorance and inoomps-
tence of its agents is not only delayed in OBJ
tanning his rights, but is left to the mercy aud
caprice of boys, who, while pretending to ex-
anime the claims, are thinking over their next
game of billiards or base ball, or perhaps
are suffering from incipient ga5tritis caused
by eating too much mUlasses candy. The
routine and circumlocution necessary TO OBJ
tain the payment of the smallest claim, after
obtaining a departmental decision in your
favor are not only tiresome but ridiculous, and
are no doubt kept up to give employment to
hundreds of clerks who ought to be living in
the country, tilling the soil.
and producing instead of oonsum-
ing. claim, after being approved, before
being paid has to 60 to twenty-three offices,
in each of which are idle and incompetent
employees of both sexes. Gibbon, in his "De-
cline and Fall of the Roman Empire" may
have slandered the Church in its early days,
when he said that the priests, in lieu of so
many odalisques, were allowed subsidy in
money. We hope, in virtues name, the state
ment is not true. The Government and people
of the United States seems to be at the present
time initiating the customs of many nations
of antiquity, and instead of avoiding the rocks
upon which they were wrecked, are being
rapidly drawn into a maelstrom of political
corruption and moral degradation. The good
name of the country calls for reform in more
than one respect in the departments of the
Government.
