MeGe Instantly in our saddles on the
way TO the hospital. II was our n
tention to seize tBescarriage,. which !
was drawn by a splendid pair Of
horses, and to have one of our men
mount the box and sdfivd direct for
southern. Maryland, via, Benning,s
bridge. We felt confident that all
the cavalry in tho city could never
overhaul us. We were all mounted
on swift horses, besides having ="
thorough knowledge oflthe country,
- peing determined TO abandon the
II"@'riage after passing the city limits.
! pun the suddenncss of the blow, and
INC c'leflty OF our movements we de-
pended for success. BY the time tho
alarm could have been giyen and
horses saddlcd, we would have been
on our way through southern Mary
land toward the Potomac river. 10
our great disappointment, however,
the President was not there, but one
of the government oflicias--Mr.
Chase, if | mistake not We did not
disturb him, as we wanted a bigger
chase laughter than he could have
afforded us. 1t was certainly a Bit
ter disappointment, but yet | think
a most fortunate one for us. 1t was
our last attempt. We soon after this
became convinced that we could not
remain much longer undiscovered,
and that we must abandon our en-
terprise. Accordingly separation
finally took place.
Mr.. Surratt denies that he had any.
thing to do with the abduction plot
afterwards, or knew anything of the
assassination till he heard of it at
Elmira, whore he was engaged in
plot to release the rebel prisoners, or
was in Washington after April 4th.
1860, till brought there for trial, hav-
ing gone from Elmira to Canada as
soon as he heard of the assassination.
and remained there till he went to
Europe. He repels the charge that
he deserted his mother says Wash
ington friends advised him that she
was in no danger, but does not men,
ton that she knew anything Of the
abduction plot. He says the witness
Weichman, on whose testimony Mrs.
Surratt was hung, was in the abduc-
ton plot, and while clerk in the
War Department furnished Surratt
with knowledge of federal troops,
which the latter conveyed to Rich
mond.

There was once a wife, young, and
bcautiful,a admired. Her husband
was wealthy but was an invalid,
and he loved her too well to c0nfne
her at his bedside. He urged her to
go into society without HIM, ard she
went until she was fast becoming a
slave to its destinations. He deter
mined to rescue her from the giddy
vortex to which she was rapidly
moving, and to do this he resorted to
measures which otherwise would
have seemed harsh. He cOnversed
with her in such way regarding his
affairs that she thought him a bank
rapt; thought him reduced to pow
erty, and she heroically sustained her
part in the conflict Of life. 1t was a
furnace Of fire in which he tested her
womanhood and her affection, but
she came forCh refined, purified, ex-
allied. Her husbands love and con-
fdence had not been misplaced. Was
his course wrong?
No, no, Chester that course was
my salvation. | needed the retire

ts9- Frequent appeals to Provl-
dence is a habit with the King of
Prussia He declared when crowned
King at koenigsbery, On the 18th Of
October, 1861, that he would rule
only "by the grace Of God" When
setting out for the campaign in Boz
hemia he entrusted" his "cause to
God )" and when, "by the visible as
sistance Of God" he returned victor
ious to Berlin, he expressed "thanks
for Gods gracious goodness, who had
assisted Prussia" lie concluded a
speech on that occasion by crying,
with upliited hand, "May Providence
bless Prussia os graciously in the fu-
ture as it has visibly blessed the i'm
mediate past May God grant it {"
When France declared war last July,
the King said, God knows did not
seek this war. + =

The dispatch that refers to the battle
Of Woerth ran thus. "Wonderful
luck This new great victory was
won by Fritz. Thank God for His
mercy !" The dispatch dated "Be-

u.s. Recent astronomical discover
les seem to indicate that the planet
Mars resembles the earth TO q greater
degree than any other. So thor
oughly has Mars been studied by
many Of the most noted astronomers
OF tho present, and Of the past, that
map has actually been constructed
from over sixty different views, at
different seasons of the Mars year,
showing its seas and continents, its
snow lire and its temperate zones, TO
such degree that the analogy be-
tween it and tho earth seems to es-
tabish the conviction that Mars is,
in almost every respect, as well adapt
ed for animal life as the earth. And
if adapted for such life, why not for
intelligent human beings?

The Consolidation Bill Signed.

The Governor has signed the consolidation
bill, with brief expression of his aversion to
some of its provisions; but he intimates ac-
quiescence of the example of previous legisla-
ton and because the large vote in the Legisla-
ture for the bill was strong expression of pop
ular opinion 10 its behalf
On Friday last, he sent the following message
to the General Assembly assigning his reasons
for not vetoing the bill:
"Gentlemen of the Senate and House of Dele
gates;
The bill entitled an act to authorize the
formation of the Atlantic Mississippi, and Ohio
Railroad Company has this day been approved
by me.
"Upon the subject of consolidation, as it is
popularity styled, and which it is anticipated
will be practically accomplished under this bill,
my views were formed years ago, and are still
unchanged. They were endorsed by the last Leg
islature of the State, and have now been sane
toned by very large majority of your honora-
bic bodies.
1.-THE question has been thoroughly discuss
ed and the correctness Of the policy must be
considered as established by the popular voice
of the State. | have earnestly and carefully
considered all the provisions of this bill. My
Judgment does not CONCUR with that of the Gen
eral Assembly In some of the provisions; but
the Legislature, in our form OF government,
may be rightly regarded as the exponent of the
popular will and judgment in measures of this
character. You have expressed by a decisive
majority your approval of all these provisions.
In view of this fact do not feel it to be in
cumbent on me to interpose my individual opin-
ions in arresting the sonsummation Of mea-
sure so emphatically endorsed by your iqdg-
ment.
IF my own judgment was clear that this bill
involved an lnfraction of the Constitution, or a
violation OF private rights, or that your honora-
BILE bodies had not deliberately and fully con-
sidered all the just interests Of the State in the
passage OF this bill, I should unhesitatingly
withhold my approval The great importance
OF this measure, and an earnest desire to- per-
form my duty 10 regard to it, have caused NE
to give to this bill the fullest reflection possible
within the time allowed nue., and have felt it
to be appropriate to state briefly to you in this
manner the reasons which have controlled my
action. Respectfully.
GILBERT G. WALKER"
