Judge WILLIAM JOHNSTON of Ohio has
lately published in the Cincinnati CONNER
cial a letter on the question whether JACOB
THOMPSON OF Mississippi was personally
concerned in the celebrated robbery Of In
dian bonds from the Department Of the Int
ror. This robbery took place just before
the rebellion in which THOMPSON, who was
Secretary of the Interior at the time, was
one of the original conspirators. The bonds
were stolen to realize money 10 save JoHN
L. FLOYD, Secretary of War. another of the
conspirators, from public exposure of frauds
which would result in his peremptory dis
missal from office II was exceedingly inn
portant TO the conspiracy that FLOYD should
keep his place until he could complete the
work of supplying the forts and arsenals Of
the South with arms and ammunition to
| serve as supplies for the future rebel armies.
| Under these circumstances the bonds were
stolen from THoMPsoN's keeping, and SO ap-
piled as TO keep FLOYD in Office; and though
a committee of the House of Representatives,
which examined the subject in 1850, cast the
blame upon one GODDARD BAILEY, one OF
! THoMPsoN's clerks, Judge JOHNSTON argues
with much cogency that such transaction
could not have taken place without the
knowledge and consent of THOMPSON.
II seems that in some recent publication
| Mr. THOMPSON had claimed the late Mr..
STANTON as, his friend and 10 this Judge
JOHNSTON replies with natural warmth Of
| indipnation The discussion of this subject
recalls a historical incident which has never
been published. The last official business
transacted by President LINCOLN was 10 re
ceive the visit of an officer of the War De
partment who came TO take his directions
respecting this same JACOB THOMPSON
Information had reached the Department
at about o'clock in the afternoon of Apr
IL, that JACOB THOMPSON, the leader among
herebel agents in Conada-concerning whom
it had repeatedly been reported by our secre
agents there, that they were considering
plans to assassinate the Presdent-would b.
, in Portland Maine, the next day in a certain
disguise, 10 take the steamer which woul
