INCoRRurrIBLE BLACK.


Hon. Hugh Mccullough. Secretary OF
the Treasury under the late President
johnson. thus refers to Jere Black
in a letter denying that the ex.President
used money 10 secure his aequittal in
the great impeachment trial:
81 will state what I think I know 10
he n fact. that Nj. johnson not only
never consented 10 the use OF money.
but often said In my hearing that II he
could 10 acquitted for fve dollars, he
would not pay the sum. noe let anybody
else pay Ii for him. I am borne out In
this assertion by the well.known fact
that he allowed Jsrc Black to withdraw
from his defense rather than give his
official sanction TO n corrupt land trade
in which Black was interested.q He told
Black that he would rather 10 convicted
ten times over than purchase not only
defense. but acquittL. at snch . price"
Black voulin't have Aken Bidwell's

New York, April s-The illness of
Henry NJ. Cleveland has made it neces-
sary. that his testimony in the Beecher
trial should be taken at his residence.
The examination began yesterday after
noon, Mr.. Cleveland reclining in the bed
while answering the questions, which
were taken down by a s%tenographer and
are to be written out and read in court
at the conclusion of Bescher's testi-
mony. AT $50 a recess was taken for
dinner until s o'clock, when the exami-
nation was resumed and continued until
$3.50. the examination to be resumed in
the same manner each afternoon until
the testimony is concluded. The testi-
mony Of Cleveland is regarded as i'm
portant by both sides, on account of his
confidential relations with Beecher in
reference TO the matters at issue on
trial, aud has, consequently, a knowl-
edge of the important facts relating
thereto. The supervisors of Brooklyn
have refused extra pay to the jurors in
the Beeeher-n lton case, and voted down
the resolution that the supervisors in
dorse the bill pending in Albany pro-
viing for extra pay.
A Calcutta correspondent, writing of
the massacre in the Laga Hills of the
surveying party under Lieutenant Hol-
eombs, says the heads of the slain we're
taken of by the survivors to prevent
their being paraded in the villages of
the Nagas, as those savages think as
much Of the caput as American Indians
do Of the scalp, The number of killed
and wounded, as far as can be ascer-
tanned, are eighty killed, fifty one slightly
wounded, while hfiy.two we're unhurt.
The Supreme government intends send
ing two regiments forward at once, when
the massacre viii be avenged. The or
ders to these regiments are to exterml-
nate, root and branch, all Of the villages
and villagers OF what are known as Sa-
nAu and Ninn villages Of the Maya Hill
tribes. The ssvsges numbered nearly
two hundred and obtained access to the
camp Of the surveyors under pretense Of
bringing presents to offer, selling provis-
ions, ETC., to the remainder of the party.
