Jezebel John Surratt, youth of strong
Southern physiognomy beardlesS and
lanky, knew of the murder and connived al
it. Sam Arnold and one Mclaughlin were
to have been parties to it. but backed out
in the end. They all relied upon Mrs. Sur
ratt and took their cues from Wilkes
Booth
The conspiracy had its own time and
kept its own counsel. Murder, except
among the principals, was seldom men
toned except by gentee implication. But
they all publicly agreed that Air Lincoln
ought TO be shot, and that the North was a
race of fratricides. Much was said of
Brutus, and Booth repeated heroic pas
sages, to the delight of Harold, who learned
them also, and wondered if he was not
born to greatness.
In this growing darkness, where all
rehearsed cold hearted murder, Wilkes
Booth grew great of stature. He had found
ii purpose consonant with his evil nature
and bad influence over weak men; so he
grew moodier, more vigilant, more plauS-
ible. BY mien and temperament he was
born to handle a stiletto. We have no face
so markedly Italian; it would stand for
Cesar Borgia any day in the year. All the
his schemes were three in order:

religion of the peaceful founder.
The country Immediately outside of the
District of Columbia to the south is named
Prince Georges, and the pleasantest vii
| lage of this County, close TO. Washington,
is called Surrattsville. This consists of a
few cabins at crossroads, surrounding a
| fine old hotel, the master whereof, giving
the settlement his name, left the property
| to his wife, who for long time carried it
on with Indifferent success. Having a
son and several daughters, she moved to
Washington soon after the beginning OF
the war; and left the tavern to a trusty
friend-one john Lloyd. Surrattsville has
gained nothing in patronage or business
from the war, except that it became at an
early date a rebel postoffice. The great
secret mail from Matthias Creek, Virginia,
to Port Tobacco, struck SurrattSville, and
thence headed off to the east OF Washing
ton, going meanderingly north. OF this
post route Mrs. Surratt was manageress;
and John Lloyd, when he rented her hotel,
assumed the responsibility of looking out
for the mail as well as the duty of making
Mrs. Surratt at home when she chose to
visit him.
