more in it than appears on the •surface After Mr. Lincoln had be*.n killed, the people here were crazy with excite ment. Booth, who was an act-r and a perfect master of bis profession, was a cool-headed, determined, reslute man. He believed that the deed which he was to commit would rid the wot Id of a tyrant, and would be as perfectly justifiable as the killing of Caesar by j Bratus or the killing of Marat by Charlotte Corday. He no doabt made and perfected at his leisure, all the arrangements for his escape. It was his business, as an actor, so disguse himself that his most intimate friends could not recognize him, and of course he was able to do so. In all probabili- j ty, after he fired the fatal shot he re tired at once to some private room, quickly changed himself into a poor recently discharged soldier, or a Lieu tenant of the Navy, or a venerable and respectable physician, accompanied by a servant, or a clergyman with white choker and spectacles, or a patent medicine agect with his box of speci men medicines, or a wounded officer accompanied by an orderly, or any one of a dozen other characters which he j could assume, and defy detection, j There are scores ot places in this city where he could have remained that night, and in the morning he probably Lit in the cars for Baltimore, and pro ceeded direct to Canada. The official documents published by the govern ment on the subject, Report of Secre tary of war, 1865-66, Vol. 2, page 1,05 ft. say that Booth left the city that night on horseback, crossed the eastern branch of the Potomac river, crossed the Potomac river itself, at its widest point, many miles below Wash ington, crossed the Rappahannock river, and was not killed till the 2Gth of April, twelve days after the murder 1 ! If Booth got out of the city that easy, I and crossed three large rivers, and traveled more than eighty miles, how much easier could he have rode on horseback that night, in one of his dis guises., or in the disguise of an officer making his rounds, attend by an order ly merely from Washington to Balti more, and have taken the cars there next morning, for Canada? In fact, there are a dozen ways in which he might have got away from Washing ton for the North, and in all probabili ty he did make use of one of them. Baker however, Boston Corbety, and some other detectives, tracked some poor wretch to a barn in a swamp south of the Rappahannock river : and although there were thousands of cavalry soldiers within a few miles, and twenty or thirty on the spot, these valorous detectives shot this poor wretch through the logs of the barn and then gave out that it was Booth wham they had killed. If it was Booth, nothing would have been easier than to identify the body, as there were f undreds of people here who knew him. But instead of doing that no one was allowed to see the body of the poor wretch. It was brought here kept carefully secluded from every eye, and it is said was destroyed by chemical means. So that really there ii not a thread of evidence to show that Booth was ever killed. On the other hand, letters have been received here by different persons at different times during the last few months, from persons in Europe who know Booth, saying that he is there, alive and well. There is certainly a mystery about the matter, which is yet to be unraveled. DALLAS. Kentucky Election —44 counties heard from give a Democratic majori ty of 27,428.- Not a single county has yet reported a majority for Hobson, the opponent of Duval, for Clerk of the Court of Appeals. Sixty-six coun- j ties remain to be heard from. The j Courier thinks the majority in the State will exceed 40,000, and may even reach, or go beyond, 50,000, The Journal sings feebly on the sub ject. The Democratic Victory in Kentucky. In the election for a Clerk of the Court of Appeals in Kentucky, which took place on Monday last, Judge Du vall, the Democratic candidate, was elected by a majority ranging from twenty-five to thirty thousand. One of the most remarkable features of the election was the fact that every ward in the city of Louisville gave a major ity for the Democratic candidate. The Louisville Courier, exulting over the splendid victory, says : “It is with pride and exultation that we send i forth the glad tidings of great joy that Kentucky once more stands erect, free from the shackles which for five long years have weighed her down, and true to those ancient principles of civil and religious liberty which have been brightened rather than dimmed by her frightful experence in the arts and practices of a military depotism.” A Little Girl Poisoned by Eating Ely Paper. — A little daughter of Mr. Kennedy, residing in Pittsburg, came near losing her life the o her dav, bv eating a small piece of fly poisning paper. Sweet milk was at once admin istered as an emetic. It had the des ired effect, and a physician summoned declared that the chill owel its life to this simple remedy. We notice this incident to put housekeepers on their guard against carelessness in the use of the poisonous article. The cholera has made its appearance at Cincinnati, and is believed to-be al ready assuming an epidemic form. On the 3d inst., there were eighteen or twenty cases reported, of which ten proved fatal. —Many families were making preparations to remove into the country. _Mrs. John C.

IIEKAED, We will thank our cotemporaries of the Savannah Herald, to write us down on their books as well as in their columns, as the Southern Enterprise. We don’t answer to the name of the Thomasville “ Watch man ” as they have it in the lErald of the 13th, where they copy our brief reply to the Bainb.rid;re Argus, on the extension of tr.e Atlantic & Gulf Railroad. The “ Watch man” has been a defunct institution for many years. ■ ♦ • •- a ■ ■ ■■ PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION. This Convention met yesterday the 14tb, but of course, it is yet too early for us to be able to give any news of its proceed ings. The Radicals threatened to bieak up the Convention, or take steps to pre vent its organization, but we presume, that desperate as their cause has become, they are not yet quite ready to begin another bloody civil war. That great excitement prevailed in the Quaker city upon the sud den invasion of so many resuscitated Re bels, wo can easily believe, but we trust the trembling fears of the Radicals abated, rrlitu tbey their pacifio mtcavlono. JTIBOE It. It, CFRTIS. Hon. Benj. R. Curtis, of Massachusetts, will long be remembered for the able dis senting opinion he delivered from the bench of the Supreme Court, in the celebrated Dred Scott case in 1857. In a recent let ter on the Philadelphia Convention, now in session, he said : “ To suppose that the Government of the United S ates can, in a state of peace, rightfully hold and exercise absolute and unlimited power over a part of its territory and people, just-so long as it may choose to do so, appears to me to be unwarranted by any rules of public law, abhorrent to right reason, and inconsistent with the nature of our Government.” MJfOW WHOSE WITHERS ARE wrix; ?” Not ours, Mr. Editor of the Quitman Banner, or at least., we have not been able to feel the “wringing.” But perhaps we 1 are as insensible to the keen thrusts of the ! editor’s wit as he found us to be to the con 's vineing power of his arguments. However this may be, the editor cannot blame us for our want of sensibility after his reply to our remarks upon his superior “ moral rectitude,’-’ nor ceusure us for our want of , understanding to appreciate the force of his argumen s, after the exordium in his last issue, upon our efforts to set him ’ straight on the laws of advertising. IVe heard, or read him patiently, and replied to him dispassionately—if he is not con vince lit is notour fault. We have no do sire for the last word, and will conclude therefore, simply by correcting an error into which the editor seems to have fallen, in reference to our disposition toward the Banner. We never had any desire to “ retard the prosperity ” of the Banner —certainly never made any effort to do so, and even now, hope that it may receive a 1 the encour agement and enjoy all the prosperity to which its merits may entitle it. Can you say as much for the Enterprise our way ward brother ? “THE LA.TO WE LOVE,” Thi3 excellent monthly for August, edit ed by Gen. D. H. Hill, is upon our table.

We have received the August number of this excellent monthly, and find in its pa ges a great variety of useful information. Every farmer should be a regular subscri ber to this valuable work. The price is only $2 per annum, and a single number is worth more than that amount for its valuable information to farmers. A> EDITOR CARRIED. Capt. J. B Oliver of the Tallahassee Sentinel, was married last Thursday to Miss K. A. Williams, of Bainbridge, Ga. The Richmond Times says there never was a time when the Southern press was perform mg its duty to the South more vigilantly, fearlessly and usefully than now. The evidence of this ability, fidelity and efficiency can be found in the curses, imprecations groans and yells of all the detected, , flagellated and exposed petty military tyrants, unworthy judges, thievish cotton agents, and mousing agents of the Freedmen’s Bureau, who were turned loose to prey upon the South ern people before and at tbe end of the war. But for the press, these harpies would have stripped our peo ple as bare as a pack of cayotes devour the carcass of a buffalo. The Great Fires of the North —Anonymous Letter From the South. —The Portland Press pub ish es the following letter, which, it says, wasieceived in that city by the Post master : Lorisx*TLLE, Ky., July S, 1866. P. J !. Portland , Maine : Dear Sir —General Sherman, the Great Arson and Fire King, is once more abroad with his incendiary torches; every day we hear of de structive fire 9 in some locality at the North. As long as Sherman remain ed stationary at St. Louis and Chicago fires were principally confined to these places. Now that this great desolator is on his march North, we hear daily of fires either in his front or rear. Day before yesterday the town of Lawrenceburg, Indiana, was consumed by fire. Yesterday we heard of your town soffering from the fires of Heaven and to-day another fire is reported in Pensylvania; and I look for such reports daily, until the vengeane of the Almighty is appeased by the de struction of seven-fold the amount inflicted by the desolating march through the South by the Great Arson King—fires in his front, fires in his rear, fires at his right, ard fires at his left hand, is destined to be your fate at the North. The total destruction of New York city and Boston by fire would not equal the sixty-mile-widc tramp of Sherman through Georgia. I just call your attention to this mat ter in order that your curiosity may lead you to observe, etc. Yours, John Smith. Refused to Give Him up.— Brownlow’s Whig, of last week, says : “Gov. Jenkins, of Georgia, recently made a requisition on Gov. Brownlow for the person of a gallant Federal officer at Nashville, the nephew of General Burnside, upon a charge of stealing cotton. The Governor refus ed to surrender him, and the Georgia rebels speak of it as an outrage, and threaten to carry the case before the President. When it becomes neces sary the Governor of Tennessee will lay the correspondence before the country, which will vindicate his ac tion fully, and justify the refusal. — The President can turn aside, if he thinks proper, and serve his rebel Iriends by the surrender of a gallant Federal officer, but the Governor .of Tennessee will not gratify the malig nant spirit of rebeldom by any such surrender. AH that is wanting in Georgia to imprison or hang a Federal officer or soldier, is to get him before a Georgia jury, charged with an of fence.” It is thus that the constitutional obligations of Tennessee and the com ity of the States are set aside by tho ruffianly Governor of Tennessee. He openly harbors and protects thieves who have fled from other States, and under a pretext which he knows to be utterly false. A Federal officer would have as fair and impartial a Lr'cll in Georgia as he would in Tennessee or the District of Columbia. Alter such conduct we hope our Executive will suspend all official relations with the State of Tennessee so long as Brown low shall continue to disgrace her gubernatorial chair.— Macon Tele graph. * ► —■ - The author of the recent forgeries upon the Navy and Treasury Depart, ment proves to have been William Ringold Cooper. Acting Ensign of the Navy, lately on duty in the Bu reau of Navigation. The young swin dler has been moving in the best Washington circles for some time past and was yesterday married to a Miss Julia defrees, an accomplished young lady and a niece of the Public Printer. Immediately after the marriage ser vice, Cooper and his wife took the train for Philadelphia, en route for Europe ; but the detectives were on the same train and tho bridegroom forger was nabbed on his arrival in Philadelphia All of the sixty thou sand dollars, with the exception of about twenty-five hundred dollars, was recovered. The Generals of the regular army now rank in the rrder of their names in the following list; General, Ulysses S. Grant; Lieutenant General, Wil liam T. Sherman; Major Generals. Henry W.

Rosecrans,jPhilip St. George Cooke, John Pope, Joseph Hooker, John M. Schofield, Oliver O. Howard, Allred 11. Terry, E.O C. Ord. A New Material for Paper.— The Secretary of the Interior yester day received from a gentlemen in New Jersey samples of paper manu factured from sedge prass —a grass which grows in great abundance upon all tidewater flats. The paper is very white and clear, and will undoubtedly proove a good substitute for ordinary writing paper made of eotton or linen rags. It is estimated that it can be manufactured for twenty per cent less than any variety now in use. — Chron icle. Debt of the United States.— From the just publish statement of the Secretary of the Treasury, it appears that the total debt < f the United States was, on the 15th instant $2, 770,416, 608 99 ; cash in the Treasu ry, $137, 317,332, 61, of which s6l, 332,126 57 is coin. And the amount of debt less cash in the Treasury, $2,633,099,276 38. On the Ist of August, 1865, the debt less cash in the Treasury was $2,757,253,275 86; showing a reduction of -3124,153,999 48. Gen. Terry has at last issued an order to suppress the negro military parades that have been so distateful to the citizens of Richmond. The Times’ London letter says of j the attitude of Kuropean politics, the actual question is, will Austrii consent to resign all power, all right in Ger many, and leave Prussia supreme con troller of 40,000.000 Germans ? Con senting to this, Austria may have peace with an empire of 33.000,000 of people; if she will not consent, then Prussia will attempt to excite revolt in Hungary, and will do her utmost to Llot Austria from the map of Eu rope. The Emperor of France insist ed upon Austria being maintained as a power. Now he appears to have renounced that part of his programme, and urges Austria to accept the terms of peace offered by Prussia and Italy ; but there is something concealed ; the Emperor is not ready to interfere, and he may have been converted by the needle-gun to Prussian policy. The salary of Congressmen has I been increased to So,ooo, and mileage is cut down to 20c. The employees of Congress, including the Capitol Police get an addition of twenty per cent to their salaries. The addition ■ does not apply to the clerks and cm } ployees in the various departments. General Sherman has given his oppinion of the Rump. In his speech ‘at Cleveland he said : fT see that the Atlantic cable has been successfully laid —that’s a good thing. I also see 5 that Congress has adjourned—that’s ■ a good thißir, and if the hot weather only keeps off, that too will be a good ; thing.”’ M A It It IEO On Sunday, ‘sth instant, by the Rev.
