What Granf Saws.

The President informed several Re.
publican members Of congress this after
noon that the first intimatiOn he had Of
Belknap's mslfesssnce was from the
lips of Belknsp himself. An uDauthen-
ticated rumor prevailed st the capital
early in the afternoon that Belknap re-
marked to the President this morning
that when he heard Marsh was bound
to testify, he exclaimed, 81 wish l bad
killed myself" to which the President
replied, Il wish you had" This IumOr
was soon repeated in modified forms,
until it assumed the shape that Belknsp
had actually killed himself. Many per-
sons, in the excitement Of the moment,
believed the rumOr to be true, and pains
were taken to obtain information TO the
contrary. Itwss q matter Of surprise to
everybody that the testimony impli'

He Wants 10 go Home.
Very Much Depressed He f. Anx-
iOus 10 Get Away from Old TO
New England.

LONDON, March 2-WinslOw, the
Boston forgeT, was brought up at Bow
street to-day and remauded till noon to-
morrow. The proceedings were delayed
twenty minutes by q report that Mr..
Montner would appear as Wiuslow's so
licitOr. When Sir Thomas Henry asked
the prisoner II he had a solicitor, Wins
low said he did not desire and did not
wish TO contest the case at all; he would
be glad to waive everything, and would
be only too glad to 90 home tomorrow.
Sir Thomas Henry said: Il understand
Mr.. MOntuer will appear for the defense
at the request of the prisoners friends"
Detective Greenham explained that tho
prisoners friends at Boston teIegTaphed
for Montner to appear, but the prisoner
did not wish to have q solicitor. Wins
low said it was not the wish either OF
his family or Of himself, and said he was
i'll and asked permission to be seated,
which was granted by Sir Thomas Hen
ny. Dearborn, q Boston detective, iden-
titled Winslow and produced the neces-
ssry extraditiOn papers, including the
Indictment found by The grand jury o.
Suffolk county, Massachusetts,, contain
ing fourteen counts, seven for forging
and altering, and seven for altering to
the amount Of forty thousand dollars.
Documents were handed to WinslOT,
who declined to ask Dearborn any ques-
TORS. During the reading Of the dOcu-
meDts WinslOW sat looking downward,
apparently very much depressed, but
otherwise he eviDced no emotion. he
seems to have suffered much from con-
finement. He is very sallOw and gaunt.
He is unshaven, end wears wOrn-lOOk-
ing blue frock coat. On this occasion,
when obliged to speak, his voice was
husky and his tone lower than when he
addressed the court last Wednesday
week. After the documents had been
read, Sir Thomas explained their puT-
port to WinsloW and asked him II he
understood them. WinslOW replied
that he did. Sir Thomas then said, adj
dressing WinslOw: "In an eXtrRdit!on
cause IL was necessary to have evil
dence that the governmentrequiriDg the
extrsdition had made formal sppli-
cation to the English government.
Though l understand the American le-
cation sent documents to the foreign
office yesterday, / have not received
any information from either the foreign
or home office; therefore think 1t best
to remand you until tomorrow" The
prisoner asked to be allowed TO see his
family, who had been in a private room
Of the court since last Wednesday week.
Permission was granted. MIS-. WinslOw
seems less depressed than on Wednes-
day. She will probably go home in the
same vessel with her husband. IL seems
that the authorities Of Boston left the
question Of time and msnnerof the fam

Proposed Abolition of Lent.

New York Evening Post.l
The clergymen OF the Reformed Epis-
copal church who attended the conse-
Grafton Of Bissop Nicholson, at Phila-
delphis, on Thursday, held q conference
on Thursday night at which it was
agreed to report to the general standing
ommittee Of the Reformed Episcopal
ofrnsh that inasmuca as the worldliness
and Ti8tSus pleasures incident to all Sea-
sons Of the year are only temporarily
suspended during the season Of Lent, it
is advisable to dispense with the season,
DR.. LecOck, Of Newburgh, New York,
said that it had been apparent to him
that both before and after Lent the in
tensity of dispersstions increased; that
he did not think the observance Of the
fast promoted the spiritual interests OF
the chulcb, and that If people would
think church life were an every. day
life, it would be far better. Only one OF
two Of the clergymen at the conference
favored the retention Of the season.
