'civil war, was a lieutenant in Com-
pany &. 18th Ohio volunteer cavalry,
writes u the New York Independent
that he was a. Charlotte, n. c., when
President Davis Was Informed Of the

he was sent from camp, at Lincolnton.
to Charlotte, under flag of truce:
that he was ushcrcd into a room where
dozen or more men were seated and
that one Of these was Mr. Davis.
Gen. Echols received the lieutenant,
and while they were transacting their
business tclegraphic dispatch was
brought i'll and handed around. Last
OF all he was permitted to read it and
he reproduccs it from memory" we
suppose-as follows:
"GREENsBoRo, n. C., April
Lincoln was assassinated the night
Of the l4th in Ford Theatre, Sew
ard was assassinated about the same
time in his own house. Grant has
marched his army back to Washington
to de, larc himself military dictator.

President Davis's name was not
called in the licutcnants hearing. but
he says he recognized him by pic.
lures he had seen in print. Gen.
Echols, in the course of conversation
later on, admitted that Mr.. Davis had
been present in the room. The lieu
tenant describes Mr.. Davis as wearing
gray Melton suit. "The cold stare
of glass eye first caught the lieu
tenants attention. He quotes Mr..
Davis as saying, after reading the
news of Mr.. Lincoln S death: "Wel,
we have lost generous enemy
In his book "The Rise and Fall Of
the Confederate. Government" Mr..
Davis says he reached Charlotte on
April IL, 1865, and ''at the moment
Of dismouting received telegram from
Gen. Brcokinridgc announcing On in
formation received from Gen. Sher-
man, that Mr.. Lincoln had been as
sassinated. This news becoming bruit-
ed about, crowd of soldiers and
others, who had gathered around,
cheered. And SO a story went out
that Mr.. Davis read the dispatch
with exultation,'' which he takes
pains to deny, and adds:
For an enemy SO relentless in the
war for. our subjugation we could not
be expected to mourn; yet in view of
It's political consequences it could not
be regarded otherwise than us great
misfortune to the South. He had
power over the Northern people and
was without personal malignity to-
wards the people Of the South; his
successor was without power in the
the North and was the embodiment of
malignity toward the Southern peo-
pie, perhaps the moro SO because he
had betrayed aud deserted them Il,

There are radical points of indiffer-
cnce between the statements of Lieut..
Thomson and Mr.. Davis, and we, of
course, prefer to put our trust in Mr..

department is in nonrnal control OF
affairs in Cuba by reason of its mill
tary occupancy. it has nothing what
ever to do with the administration OF

statement is intended to show that the

Sinle for the recent frauds in the Dos

nave committed them alone. 1t is now
believed that sufficient evidence will
soon be forthcoming to warrant other
arrests. although no charges have yet
been made against any one. Mr.. Run
Gle has been approached by one man
who is under suspicion with request
that he undertake his defence in case
Y charge IS brought against him.
