ALADY'S MILITARY PLAN.
Miss Anna Ella CarrOll's War
Clainl-The Lady Stricken
with Paralysis.

WASHINGTON, September 10 - Miss
Auua F. la C.rroli, of Maryland, was
stricken with paralysis q few days ago,
and is now reported TO be lying at the
point Of death aesr Baltimore. Miss
Carroll is about sixty years old, and at
the last session of Congress her claim
fur compensation for valuable services
was iavorab'y reported upon by the
House Committee on Military Affairs.
Miss Carroll asserted that she was the
author OF an etfectiyeIiplan adopted
in 1851, by the commanders OF che
Union Army for carrying on the war in
the Mississippi Valley. The COMMITTEES
saw in their report that the original plan
provided for opening the Mississippi
rIver by descending it with q feet OF
gun boats, and that the plan vas
changed so that the armies were divert
cd up the Tennessee river and thence
south ward, the new base being in North
Mississippi and Alabama. The evidence
convinced the committee that Miss Car
roll was the authOfeSs et this change OF
plan. She had made an investigation
and had submitted her views in writing
10 Assistant Secretary of War Thomas
A. Scott. The committee added that
the foregoing statement had been con-
firmed by President Lincoln, Secretary
Stanton, the Hon. B. +. Wade and
many others, and reported bill placing
Miss Carroll on the pension rolls as
recognition OF her services.

WHAT THOMAS COUNSEL PREDICTS.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, September l6.-The re-
cent trial OF DR.. Thomas for heresy
promises to be attended by sensational
results that were hardly expected. Prof.
Austin Bierbower, one OF DR.. Thomas
advisory counsel, said to-day, in the
course OF au interview: at has not
been made public as yet, but three Of
the most prominent men OF this confer.
will be brought to trial on charges Of
heresy, or something worse. Quite
number OF persons have been instanc.
ing moral and docturnal irregularities
in three of those who have been DIR.
Thomas most decided opponents. In
two cases they are OF highly sensa-
tional character
"Who will press these charges?"
81 am not at liberty to say, and, in.
deed, l do not suppose ii has yet been
determined. ! will say, however, that
DIR. Thomas will have nothing whatever
to do with these things, nor have any
of his counsel decided to take any no.
tice OF these charges, but they have been
urged very strongly upon their atten.
ton. There will be likely to be very
lively time in the Methodist church
generally for the next three years or
more"
"You spoke OF the trials OF three OF
DR.. Thomas opponents"
"They are all members OF one confer.
ence-the Rock river"
"How will they stir up the whole
church at large?"
"They, OF course, will, to certain
extent, only have local effect, but We
are going farther in our work. Sutti'
cient evidence has already been promls-
ed us to convict three of the most prom
inent men in the Methodist Episcopal
Church, on one or the other OF the same
points OF which DR.. Thomas has been
found guilty. II, by any possible
means, we should fail to get all the
decisions from the general confer.
ence on the Thomas case, which We
we want (which, however, we have no
doubt we shall get, We will get them on
some other prominent preachers case,
which viii be instituted between now
and the next meeting OF the general
conference. The Methodist church will
not be allowed, by any possible means,
to dodge the responsibility of making
decisions on her standards and doc.
trines, particularly with reference to
Inspiration The Atonement and Flu.
ture Punishment Neither will the
conference be allowed to decide the
question OF allowable latitude in her
ministers"
"Who are these three prominent min
listers to whom you refer?"
Bishop Foster, DR.. Curry and DR..
Vincent were the ones l especially re.
ferred to, but there are others-many
others who agree with them in disagree.
ing with the backwoods' doctrines OF
DR.. Thomas opponents"
"Who are the three members OF the
Rock River conierence?"
81 am not at liberty to give their

professor, do you really believe that
DR.. Thomas will be acqaitted by gen.
eral conference?"
"Certainly, l DO. He will not have
court there who is his most bitter
enemy, as was the case in the trial Just
past, where DR.. Gurney sat beside the
court and advised 1t constantly.

the patient would be able, in his pres
ent debilitated condition, to undergo
another complication such as he has
already encountered. Judge Advocate
General Swain, in reviewing the situa-
ton, did not think the President started
in IS favorable this morning as ne DID
Yesterday; ''but," said he,
"There In no Occasion for Alarm"
He was OF the opinion that the de.
preston was only temporary. Colonel
Swain thinks when the President has
his bright days each one adds little
to the preceding one, and that gain IN
strength is manifested from time to
time. He attributes the weekly de-
pressions OF the President to the SYM
pathy caused by the shock OF the wound.
He does not think the President re-
fleets upon the occasion of his wound any
more during the latter part OF the week
than during the former part. When
spoken to about the halluclnatlons oil

serveant Mason's Trlal

WASHINGTON, September Is. - The
court martial to try cases which nave
accumulated at the barracks here during
the past month, assembled to dav at The
arsenal. The cases under consideration
were those OF the regular routine Ul ar
NV life. Serg ant MaSOn's ) ease Was not
taken up, nor is it before the Court No
orders for his trial have been issued. IL
is not believed that any military trlal
will be ordered. ut least not uGul the
civil authorities officially notify the ar
INV officials that they do not intend 20
move in the matter. Should the clvll
branch not attempt trial OF Mason, the
military authorities would then dsa!
with him as with any other soldier who
had been dlsObedient "a orders.
The officials OF the War De-
partment have stated all along
that in their opinion there wound oe no
military trial OF Mason. When Mason s
trial comes up, ii thete IS ever any
action taken, il is said Mason Will INSIST
on strict proof as to the shooting, anu
there having been no witness rs 10 the
act itself except Guiteau, 1t becomes an
interesting question as to how the case
will be made out. 1t will be contended
that under the law the crime shall oe
fully proved. This will neeessitSte
Guiteau appearing as a witness, and It
is stated that the Judge Advocate Gen
erals officer is now examining the case
TO determine what course TO pursue;
Should Guiteau be used as witness aud
be removed from the Jail for that pur-
pose, there are those who express .
doubt as to whether he will be returned

THE POSTAL TELEGRAPH
WHICH Mr.. JAMES REPORT WILL
PROBABLY RECOMMEND.
A Postal Telegraph System and Postal
Savings Banks-English Models
Their Success Sure-Whatthe
English Postal Telegraph
Systerc Pays.
PURCHASE OF TELEGRAPH PROPERTY

WASHINGTON, September l6.-lt Is
understood that the Postmaster General
will, in his annual report, devote consid-
erable space 70 two topics, upon when
he holds decided views in accord with
those entertained by his immediate
predecessor. He will probably recon-
mend the estab ablishment OF postal savings
banks, and OF postal telegraph sys'
tenn, analogous to those OF Great
Britain. The establishment OF the
postal saving banks would, it is claimed
be very easily effected, as the theory oil
the system is so well understood
throughout the United States. The
successful English system presents a
model easily initiated. 1t is understood
that the Postmaster General has had
prepared an outline OF system modelled
on that OF Great Britain, which contains
many improvements upon its model.
The fact will be cited that, in almost
every country in Europe, the tele-
graph system is operated by the
Government, usually with success in
eyery way. 1t is not understood
in the postoffice department, why snch
a system should not succeed in the Uni.
ted States. 1t is asserted that 1t would
not be 80 easy to establish as the saw
ings banks, but, once established, 1t
would be, it is believed, as successful as
that OF England, which, ten years after
It's establishment, yields net revenue
of 81 ,OOO, 900 a year. The proposition
to build new government lines to COM
pete with the private lines now in exist
euce is not regarded faVorably. The
plan advanced in Congress last session,
will probably be the one recommend
ed, If any scheme is formulated.
il will embrace the appraisal OF
the property of the existing telegraph
companies and its purchase at cost
price. The act OF 1856, granting the
right OF way through public lands aud
other privileges to telegraph companies,
authorizes the course proposed IN the
case of any company accepting It's pro.
vision. As the leading telegraph com.
panies have accepted its terms, and are
held to be subject to lis provisions,
twenty millions, which is about the
price paid by Great Britain under SIM
liar circumstances ten years ago for the
private telegraph lines OF the United
Kingdom, would, it is claimed, be
reported to be the value OF the private
telegraph lines OF the United States by
the commission OF appraisement
