General Uartranft,s GeptiIlty.

Broddfcdy Notes f1a Reao York Tribune
A lawyer in the South who defended one of
the conspirators against President Lincolu's
life recently said to me: recollect one little
instance of the gentility of Governor Hartranft,
of Pennsylvania, which / often mention After
Mrs. Snrratt had been some time on trial and
found the evidence deepening against her and
her own contradictions painfully apparent, she
became alarmed for her life; and, indeed, she
had been from the beginning. She sent
me word that she wished to see me. The
rule of the court-martial was that the
prisoners should see their counsel in the
presence of a guard, but not necessarily in the
hearing thereof. AS it was military court, of
course every order it issued had to be obeyed
strictly. Mrs. Surratt occupied one of the cells
in the old penitentiary. They were arched
cells, hardly high enough for one to stand in
upright. and with barred doors, and between
each pair Of cells stood a sentinel in the COR
ridor to keep the occupants from exchanging
conversation. Mrs. Surratt was brought out
She was ironed, but not heavily, like the
others. There was soldier in the room, and
General Hartranft, as he was at that time, for
he was in command of the prison, seeing the
counsel como into the room shook his head at
the guard, intimating for him to go out Hart
ranft, without saying word or nodding his
head to the prisoner and counsel, then retired
to the distant end of the room and looked out
of the window, thus keeping the letter Of the
severe Law. but relaxing It's spirit.

have three little daughters
They're nine, and four, and two;
Their cheeks are red rs roses,
Their eyes rs yiolets blue.
Two baby boys are sleeping
Beneath the grassy sod;
They only lived a moment here,
To ever live with God.
The three that gambol round me
Fill me with hopes and joys,
But still their sunny faces
Remind me of my boys.
They looked like these, and had they liy'd.
Their blue and laughing eyes
Had sparkled round my hearth-stone
As stars light up the skies.
But three are here-three merry ones
Sporting in childish glee,
And God has la en- the others home:
I'm thankful for the three.
Their happy sports remind me
OF the days when | was young
When the earth was filed with loveiIness,
And joy the breezes sung.
There's five of us-the mother,
The guardian of the band,
Not quite so giriish as when first
ciasp'd her maiden hand;
Her heart still hutters, not rs then.
But now mothers pride
Thrills through her frame
When she behotds her jewels by her side.
And Mary, with her auburn locks,
And eyebrows black as jet,
She bless'd us first-we loved her then,
And love her no less yet.
And little Roe, with cheeks as round
And glowing as the peach
And Lizzie, with her haxen hair
Gods blessing rest on each.
Parent of all wen be content
With what thy care may give;
Nor slight thy bounteous mercies
So long as we may live.
Bless US, kind father from above
And grant that we may strive
To live in love together here;
Bless us-were only fve.

The star route trial was resumed yesterday
morning in the supreme court of the district sit
ting in criminal term. Charles II. French, a
sub.contractor for carrying the mail on tho
route from Kearncy to Kent, in Nebraska, was
oross-cXamined with view to show that the
route actually travelled by him between these
points was shorter than that laid down in the
contract, and that the affidavit of Peck, the
contractor as TO the additional men and ami
mails required for expedited trips was based
on the idea that the longer route was being
traveled-76 miles, instead of As.
Thomas f. Nightingale, attorney for Loup
City, Neb., who wrote n petition for increase
of speed on the Kcarney Kent route, identi-
fed the paper and testified that the words
schedule thirteen hours were not in his
handwriting. Those words were inserted
after the petition was signed.
Ralph NJ. Grims, postmaster at Kearney,
and John Simmons, chief of the pay division,
were also examined as to the particulars OF
the Kcarney-Kcnt route.
Mr.. Davidge made an argument against the
admission of paper showing the productive-
ness of the route on the ground that IL could
not possibly enlighten the jury us TO the
question whether the service had been in
creased and expedited, with due regard To
productivcness and other circumstances (as
provided by statute)
Judge Wylie, however, ruled that the testi-
mony was admissible. Exception taken.

Pass tho cake"
These words, spoken in imperious tones by
Rosalind Mcclure, loatcd diagonally across
tho parlor TO where Pansy Perkins was seated
on n fdutW convorsing with George W. Simp-
son. Pausy was looking even lovliCr than
ususal, the gaslight softoncd aud made less
garish by the tinted shades through which it
came, bringing out in all its beauty the pcachy
complexion for which the Perkinses, of Per.
kinsvilc, had long been noted
"Wero you ever Mt Marietta, OhiO?" she
asked, bending her face as she spoke SO close
to that of George that littlo vagrant trcss Of
sunny hair swept across her forehead, making
him feel us If he had suddenly taken hold of
tho handles of an electrical machine.
"No," he said, " never WAS in Marietta
but have an aunt who used to live in Glove
land"
"IIow strange" said Pansy. "My father
once knew u man who used to live in Clcve-
land"
Aud so they clattcd on, unmindful of the
fact that Just ACROSS the room there sat u
woman beautiful, but with cold feet, whose
eyes were never taken from them, and IN
whose heart the fires ol jealousy We're raging

Simpson making love to u girl who didn't
have an invisible net TO her name was more
than ROsalind could bear, so she went into
the supper room.
Put some oysters near that hole In the
wall" she said to u waiter, pointing with her
jcwCled hand TO tho purticrc through which
she had just passed. The man did rs ho was
told.
In u moment George and Pansy entered the
ROOM
Would you like some oysters" he said.
"Oh, yes = replied Pansy, 81 think they
