cipient of peculiarly touching evidence of
esteem from the conyicts in the Massachu-
sets State Prison at Charlestown. on Mon
day last. 1t appears that nearly every Mon
day through their season she has brought
flowers &C., to cheer the gloom of the prison
and last year at Christmas she gave to each
prisoner pretty little boquet. The Warden
at that time suggested that the men should
save these, if possible, until the following
Christmas Day. On Monday, during some
exercises in the prison, he asked how many
had preserved the little remembrance, when
it was found that one hundred and over had
kept the faded and dried bunch Of flowers
during the twelve months of confinement.
This year the lady gave again to each of the
543 prisoners a bunch of immortelles and
evergreen, with other little flowers inter-
spersed. Eaen man took his gift as he filed

says: We need feel no surprise at the an
nouncement from Washington, that the Brit
ish and American Commission has declined
to admit the liabilities of the United States
for debts contracted by the Contederates.
This decision, of course, shuts out the claims
advanced by the unfortunate holders Of the
Confederate cotton bonds, who have so long
agitated for something like recognition OF
the loan. Nothing else was to be expected.
1t does not at all matter whether the Bond
holders Committee were right in the suspi-
cions which they expressed to LoId Granville,
that the rejection of their demands was pre-
arranged conclusion. The simple truth had
better be frankly admitted at once; it was
absurd to suppose that Americans would ever
admit such claim"
