WEDNESDAY MOENING, JlJtffe 30,1869
FOREIGN HOLDERS OF CONFEDERATE
BONDS.
It is stated that a meeting lias been late
ly held in London of British holders of
Confederate bonds, and that at this meet
ing a protest was entered against the En
lish Government considering the subject of
the Alabama claims unless the Govern
ment of this blessed Union—meaning
Grant and the men who “ run ” him—
should agree to take cognizance of such
claims against the Confederate Govern-'
ment as are now held by the subjects of Her
Britannic Majesty. The legal ground given
for this protest is, that by the rules of in
ternational law, a government which seizes
vi et armis on the assets of another govern
ment is bound by the liabilities of said
government to other than Its citizens.
Now, as it is very well known that the
Government of this blessed Union has
seized, with the claw of a million griffins,
upon even so much as a worn out soldier’s
hat or damaged cartridge box once belong
ing to the Confederate States, it follows,
according to the rule invoked by the late
meeting of British holders of Confederate
bonds, that this blessed Government is re
sponsible for the bonds issued by the CVS.
A. to foreign holders.
This will be gall to the loil, no doubt,
and they will swear by all the nine gods of
Rome they will not pay, but inasmuch as
in such case neither is it likely that John
Bull with pay they will on flaal account
be forced to come up to the scratch and pay
some of the cotton bonds of the South, even
as the people of the South are to-day pay
ing, through the internal revenue and other
infernal devices, for the powder and ball
that killed their brethren and the bread
and meat that fed their murderers. So
mote it be. Time brings many revenges and
among its other it is likely to bring this.
Our home holders cannot, as things now
stand, look for reimbursement in Confed
erate securities, but it may be some satis
faction to them to know that the subjects
of foreign governments will ultimately get
something out of the Government of this
blessed Union on account of the late C. S.
A. To rob the down trodden South in the
name of Humanity, Progress, Equal Rights,
the Divine Nigger and so on is one thing;
to meet the detnands of great nations across
the seas may prove another and a different
matter, as time rolls on.
INEFFABLY MEAN.
A week or more ago, Mr. Tonry, a hos
pital steward in the War Department at
Washington, was married to Miss Annie
Surratt, the daughter of that unhappy
lady who was judicially murdered by the
brave men who assume to represent the
ebullient loyalty of the best government
the world ever saw. Mr. Tonry’s marriage
seems to have been a great crime in the
eyes of the Secretary of War, for it is visit
ed with official decapitation. His High-
Mightiness of the War Department would
not tolerate so grave an insult to the flag,
the administration, and the loyalty of the
blessed Union, and so poor Mr. Tonry is
sent adrift for daring to marry a Surratt.
Now, is not this a mean, pitiful and every
way disgusting trick for a first-class gov
ernment, so-called ? Supposing Mrs. Sur
ratt to have been guilty, surely her child
is innocent. Beside this, what business has
the Secretary of War, or any other puffeij
np man, to do with the affections of those
employed by him or by the Government ?
But, Mrs. Surratt has long since been ad
judged guiltless by the common consent of
mankind, and,instead of pushing vengeance
and injustice beyond the tomb, the Gov
ernment should have endeavored to appease
the Furies by acts of expiation. The New
York Herald , properly indignant at this
scurvy outrage, says:
*• This shows a mean spirit of persecu
tion on the part of the Government author
ities uot unlike that which would not only
have burnt poor old John Rodgers, but his
wife and seven small children, ‘ with one
at the breast,’ at the stake on account of
the alleged heresy of the father. The
American Government should be above
such paltry meanness and worse than in
quisitorial persecution.”
Men in authority who prate hypocritical
ly of peace, and then permit the graves of
Confederate soldiers to be desecrated, are
thoroughly atliome in persecuting the inno
cent child of an innocent woman, whose
blood cries aloud for retribution upon her
murderers, and will not cry in vain forever.
Os all the immediate judges of Mary Sur
ratt, few survive. From Preston King,
the suicide, to Baker, the m(id dog, heaven
has dealt with nearly all of them as they
deserved. Those who remain will probably
keep company in the fate which shall over
take their new compeers, who trample
upou the graves of valor and the heart
of a forlorn and sinless girl.
STRAWS.
The Baltimore Gazette thinks the ques
tion of trade will work wonders in the de
molition of ultra Radicalism as it affects
the Southern States,especially those which
plant and sell cotton. The South can help
herself politically by growing, as far as
possible, commercially independent of the
North. The disposition to do so is very
marked and even the trooliest loil are be
ginning to appreciate the situation iu this
respect. The fabrics of the East are not
purchased to the same extent as formerly ;
the West has nothing like so gooil a mar
ket for her breadstutfs. Cotton, somehow,
is l>eginning to find its way to Europe
direct and feels more and more disinclined
to tarry at New York. A desire to have
back this trade •animates our “ friends” of
the East and West to moderate their poli
tical bile iu our regard. If we can only get
justice from these peoples by appealing to
their mean and sordid souls, let us by all
odds secure a full supply of the commodity
by constant and persistent turns of the
commercial screw. Piteous plainings to
hearts of Yankee flesh have proved un
availing; let us see what effect a good
sound application of the trade hammer
will have upon hearts of stone.
Austria vs. the United States.— lt is
customary to regard Austria as an effete
and despotic imperialism; but Austria is
really more of an enlightened and civilized
government than the sham Republic of the
United States. We now learn that the
civil authorities of Anstria have been for
bidden to enforce the sentences of military
courts, and the military authorities are
prohibited from meddling with citizens,
except in matters strictly within their
own purview. In the light of the’ re
cent opinion of Attorney General Hoar,
the military monarchy of Austria, bad
as it may be, is a decided improvement
upon the Republicanism of the United
states.

Edman Spangler, who was tried and sen
tenced by a military commission in May,
1865, on a charge of being engaged in the
plot to assassinate President Lincoln, and
who was pardoned by President Johnson at
tlie close of his administration, has pre
pared a statement, asserting his innocence
of all knowledge of the crime, and detailing
the cruelties practiced on the prisoners be
fore and after conviction. Spangler, it will
be recollected, was a scene shifter at Ford's
Theatre, and was on the stage in that ca
pacity when J. Wilkes Booth shot Mr. Lin
coln and jumped from the box. He also at
times cared for Booth’s horse. The evidence
against him was of the flimsiest character.
Nearly everybody believed him innocent,
and the military commission only sen
tenced him to six years at theDryTortu
gas, while the others were sent for life.—
The commission was organized to convict,
and it convicted. Abundant testimony is
now at hand to show the vast amount of
perjury of that trial—perjury exacted by
fear and dictated by malice. Spangler’s al
lusion to the witness Welchman being in
the abduction plot is important. Weich
man’s testimony, it will be remembered,
hung Mrs. Surratt. The following is the
statement sworn and subscribed to:
STATEMENT OF EDMAN SPANGLEN. t
I have deemed it due to truth to prepare
for publication the following statement —at
a time when I hope the temper of the peo
ple will give me a patient hearing—of my
arrest, trial and imprisonment, for alleged
complicity in the plot to assassinate the
late President Lincoln. . I have suffered
much, but I solemnly assert now, as I al
ways have since I was arraigned for trial
at the Washington Arsenal, that I am en
tirely innocent of any fore or after knowl
edge of the crime which John Wilkes Booth
committed, save what I knew in common
with everybody after it took place. I fur
ther solemnly assert that John 'YVilkes
Booth, or any other person, never mention
ed to me any plot, or intimation of a plot,
for the abduction or assassination of Presi
dent Lincoln; that I did not know when
Booth leaped from the box to the stage, at
the theatre, that he had shot Mr. Lincoln;
and that 14id not, in any way, so help me
God, assist-in his escape; and I further de
clare that I am entirely innocent of any and
all charges made against me in that con
nection. I never knew either Surratt,
Payne, Atzerodt, Arnold or Harold, or any
of the so-called conspirators, nor did I ever
see any of them until they appeared in cus
tody. While imprisoned with Atzerodt,
Payne and Harold, and after their trial was
over, I was allowed a few minutes’ exercise
in the prison yard. I heard the three unite
in asserting Mrs. Surratt's entire innocence,
and acknowledge their own guilt, confining the
crime, as they did, entirely to themselves, but
implicating the witness, Weichman, In knowl
edge of the orginal plot to abduct, and with
furnishing information from the Commissa
ry of Prisoners’ Department, where Weich
man was a clerk.
HIS ARREST AND BARBAROUS TREATMENT.
The statement then details the particu
lars of his arrest, which occurred on the
15th of April, 1865. He continues:
1 was allowed, on the fourth day. of my
imprisonment, to walk the prison yard;
but from that evening 1 was closely con
fined and guarded until the next Saturday
at midnight, when 1 was again taken to
the office t* see a detective, who said:
“ Come, Spangler, I’ve some jewelry for
you.” He handcuffed me with my hands
behind my backhand guarding me to a
hack, I was placed in it and driven to the
Navy Yard, where my legs were manacled
and a pair of Lillie handcuffs placed on my
wrists. I Was put in a boat and rowed to
a monitor, where 1 was taken-on board aud
thrown in a small, dirty room, between two
water-closets aud on to a bed of filthy life
preservers and blankets, with two soldiers
guarding the door. I was kept there for
three days. I had been thus confined three
days on the vessel, when Captain Munroe
came to me and said: “ Spangler, I’ve
something that roust be told, but you
must not be frightened. We have orders
from the Secretary of War, who most be
obeyed, to. put «. <’»» yuu* ntmu. men
two men came and tied up my head SO se
curely that I could not see daylight: I had
plenty of food, but could not eat with my
face so muffled up. True, there was a smal 1
hole in the bag near my mouth, but I could
not reach that, as ray hands were wedged
down by tlie iron. At last, two kind heart*
ed soldiers took compassion on me, and
while one watched the other fed me. On
Saturday night a man came to me, and
after drawing the bag so tight as to nearly
suffocate me, said'to the guard, i( Don’t let
him go to sleep, as we will* carry him out
to hang him directly.” I heard them go
up on the deck, when there was a great
rattling of chains and other noises; and
while I was trying to imagiue what Was
going on, and what they intended to do, I
was dragged out by two men, who both
pulled me at times iu opposite directions.
We, liowever, reached a boat, in which I
was placed, and Were rowed a short dis
tance. I could not say theu where we
stopped, for my face was still covered —
After leaving the boat, I was forced to
walk some distance, with the heavy irons
still on my legs. I was then suddenly
stopped, aud made to ascend three or four
flights of stairs; and as I stood at the top
waiting, some one struck me a severe blow
on the top of the head, which stunned and
half threw me over, when I was pushed
into a small room, where J remained in an
unconscious condition for several hours.
The next morning some one came with
bread and coffee.
triai. and conviction.
1 remained here several "days, suffering
torture from the bag or padded hood over
my face. It was on Sunday when it was
removed, and I was shaven. It was then
replaced. Some hours after, Gen. llar
tranft came, and read to me several chaiges,
that I was engaged in a plot to assassinate
the President, and the day following I
was carried iuto a military court, and still
hooded before all of its members. I re
mained but a short time, when I was re
turned to my cell for another night and
day, and then again presented in this
court. Mr. Bingham, Assistant Judge Ad
vocate, read the charges against me, and
asked if I had any objection to the court,
and I replied “ No,” and made my plea of
“ Not guilty.” They then wished to know
if I desired counsel, and when I answered
affirmatively, Gen. Hunter, the President
of the court, insisted that I should not be
allowed counsel. He was, however, over
ruled, but it was several days before I was
permitted legal aid, the court, in the mean
time, taking evidence with closed doors.
On every adjournment of the court, if only
for an hour, I was returned to my cell and
the closely-fitting hood placed over my
head. This continued till June 10, 1805,
when I was relieved from the torture of
the bag, but my hands and limbs remained
Heavily manacled.
WHAT HE KNOWS OF MRS. SURRATT.
The first time I ever saw Mrs. Surratt
was in the Carroll prison yard, on Capitol
Hill. I did not see her again until we
were taken into court the first day at the
arsenal. My cell was on the same corridor
with hers, and I had to pass it every time
I was taken into court. I frequently look
ed into her cell, a small room nbout four
feet wide by se*en feet long. The only
things in het cell were an old matress laicP
an the bricks and an army blanket. I
could see the irons on her feet, and she
was generally lying on the matress, and
was the last one brought into court. She
occupied a seat in court near the prison
door. The seat was twelve inches high,
and the chains between the irons on her
feet were so short that she always had to
be assisted to her seat. She was sick at
one time that the court was compelled to
adjourf. '*- **»■
BOUND FOR THE TORTUQAS.
On the 17th of July, about midnight, I
was conveyed to a steamboat, and arrived
the next day at Fortress Monroe, and was
thence taken to the gunboat Florida. The
irons on my arms were temporarily remov
ed, but Captain Dutton, in charge of the
guard, ordered heavy Lillie irons to be
placed on me, when Gen. Dodd, chief officer
in charge, more humanely countermanded
his order and had the irons again removed
from my arms. I was placed for security
in the lower hold of the vessel, and com
pelled to descend to it by a ladder. The
rounds were far apart, and, as the irons on
my feet were chained but a few inches
apart, my legs were bruised and lacerated
fearfully. The hold where I was confined
was close aud dirty, but after two or three
days I was Allowed on deck in the daytime,
but was closely guarded. I was allowed
tp speak to no one of the crew. We arrived
at Fort Jefferson, on the Dry. Tin tugas, and
was handed over HXlniitoii, com
manding, who placed me, uutil the next,
day, in a casemate. The next flay I was
brought before Col. IL r who informed me
that he had no more stringent orders con
cerning me than other prisoners conlined
there.
MORE BARBARITIES.
I managed to get along comfortably for
a while, though to some* of the prisoners
the officers were very cruel. One man by
the name of Dunn, while helping iu unload
ing a Government transport, got hold of
some liqtior and imbibed too fneely, for
which he was taken to the guardhouse and
lied up to the window frame by his thumbs
for two hours. General Hill then ordered
him to be taken down and be made to carry
a thirty-two pound ball, but as the hanging
had deprived him of the use of his thumbs,
he wasmnable to obey. The officers, how
ever, put two twenty-four pound balls in a
knapsack, and compelled him to carry
them until the sack gave way from the
weight of the iron. He was then tied up
by the wrists and gagged in the mouth by
the bayonet from B,'p. m., till the next
morning. He was then taken down and
thrown into the guardhouse, but was so
exhausted that lie had to be removed to
the hospital. It was decided to amputate
three of his fingers, but this was recon
sidered. He lost, however, the use of his
thumb and two fingers. This punishment
was inflicted by Major McConnell, officer
of the day, and was carried out by Ser
geant Edward Donnelly.
Another poor prisoner, named Brown,
was once excused by the doctor from work
on the plea of illness, but the. provost mar
shal insisted, and finding him too -ill aud
lacking strength, made him carry a thirty
two pound ball. He staggered under the
weight and was compelled from weakness
to put it down. He was then taken to the
wharf, and with his legs tied together and
his hands tied behind him, a rope was
placed round him and he was thrown into
the water and then dragged out. This was
done three or four times, lie begging for
mercy most piteonsly. He was finally
jerked out of the water and ordered to re
turn to his ordinary work. The poor
wretch crept off apparently thankful for
any escape from such torments. Captain
Joseph Eittenhouse was officer of the day,
and his orders were carried out by Corpo
ral Spear.
During the latter part of last October I
was placed in irons and compelled to work,
with an armed sentinel over me. I did not
know the reason for this, for I was uncon
scious of having given offense, and had con
formed to every regulation. I was theu
closely confined and allowed, to communi
cate with no one for ftfur months. * Tlie
pretence for this, I afterwards learned,
sprang from an attempt of Dr. Mudd to
escape.
FATE OF COLONEL GIIKNFEL.
Colonel St. George Leger Grenfel, aged
65 years, was taken sick and went to the
doctor to get excused from work. The
doctor depljned to excuse him. lie then
applied to the provost marshal, who said
that he could not excuse him if the doctor
couldn’t. Grenfel then tried to work aud
failed. They then took lijm to the guard
house tied him up for half a day, and then
took him to the wharf, t}ed his hands be
hind him, tied his legs together, and put a
rope around his waist. There were three
oftlcers, heavily armed, who drove specta
tors from the .wharf; I could see And hear
from, my window. The colonel asked them
if they were going to throw him into the
water, and they answered “ Yes.” He then
jumped in, and because he pqqld not sink,
they dreW him out and tied about forty
pounds of iron to his legs, and threw Him
into the. water again, and after he had
sunk twice they pulled him out again,
aud then compelled him to go to work.—
The officers who pad him iq hand were.
Lieutenant Robinson, Lieutenant Pike and
Captain George W. Crabb, assisted by Ser
geant Michael Gleason and Assistant Mili
tary Storekeeper G. T. Jackson, who tied
the iron on his legs. Captain Samuel
Peebles tied up Grenlel for saying that “he
was capable of doing,
n. i— - wrccti ftr scrrrrr and (To other
menial work, when he proved fie was so ill
as to-have refused to eat his rations for a
week. All of the officers hated Grenfel, on
account of a letter which appeared in a
New York paper, which they said Grenfel
wrote, about tying up the prisoner Duun—
which letter was truthful, as others and
myself were witnesses to the details it re
lated. One very stormy night. Grenfel,
with four others, escaped in a small boat,
and was evidently drowned near the fort.
His escape was discovered, but tlib storm
was so severe that it was deemed too. dan
gerous to pursue them, although a steamer
was at t.fie wfiarf, Grenfel frequently de
clared fiis intention of punning any risk to
escape, rather than, to use his own words,
“to be tortured to death at the fort.”
These are only two or three instances of
the many acts of cruelty practiced at the
fort. During my imprisonment at Fort
Jefferson, I worked very hard at carpenter
ing and wood ornamental work, making a
great many fancy boxes, Ac., out of the
peculiar wood found on the adjacent islands;
the greater portion of this work was made
sos officers. By my industry in that direc
tion, I won some favor in their eyes. I was
released in March of the present year by
Executive clemency.

Francisco Serrano.
SOMETHING ABOUT SPAIN’S NEW REGENT.
Francisco Serrano, the new Regent, is
one of those many soldiers of fortune iu
Spain who owe their fame and rank to the
devotion with which they attached them
selves to the cause of Christina, and the
courage with which they fought during the
war of independence. Like many others of
his class, he was liberally rewarded by the
Queeu Mother, and at the period of her
overthrow, in 1841, he already held high
rank in the military service of his country.
The Queen’s abdication and exile did not
long retard his advancement, for he took a
prominent part in the successful movement
against the Regent Espartero, and imme
diately on the restoration of Christina, he
joined Narvarez in his scheme to combat
and destroy the influence of the Minister
Olozaga. He played- his cards with so
much skill that he continued steadily to
rise in court, gaining such great influence
over the mind of the young Queen, that in
1846, some time after her. marriage, a very
serious difference occurred between her and
the King consort, arising out of the latter’s
jealousy of General Serrano. This domes
tic difficulty was indeed a matter of public
scaudat at the time. Au attempt was made
shortly after by the Duke «Js Sotemayer to
ruin Serrano politically, .but It recoiled on
that Minister’s own head, Serrano succeed
ing in overthrowing the Afinistvy of which
the Duke was chief. Popular opinion,
however, proved more powerful than royal
favor, and Serrano subsequently fell with
the Ministry of the Salamanca,’with whose
fortunes he had identified himself. Up to
this time the lucky favorite had been a re
actionary in politics, but he now became a
Liberal ; and he ha»ever since been identi
fied with what is known in Spain as the
Liberal Union party. He was sent in 1854
into exile for having taken part in the Sar
agossa outbreak; but- the revolution of
July in that year opened the way for his
return to Spain, be became a warm
supporter of thq O’Dounell-Espartero co
alition. He played a prominent part in the
coup d'etat of July, 1856, It being through
his instrumentality that the iusurrection’in
Madrid was subdued, and O’Dounell en
abled to seize power as dictator. For this
service he was sent as Embassador to
Paris; but the downfall of O’Donnell
shortly after led to his recall. In 1865 he
was appoints by the new O’Donnell Cabi
net Captain General of Madrid. For many
years he has had a seat in the Senate, where
lie has distinguished himself by a uniform
and vigorous opposition to the reactionary
policy of the old school of Spanish states
men, and by his hearty support of all libe
ral measures. He has taken a quiet, but
influential part in the last revolution, and
he owes his elevation to power as regent to
the character he has won of late years for
prudence and moderation, joined to liberal
and enlightened views. Serrano is about
seventy years of age, having been born at
the end of the last century.

from Johnson county reports the crops in
that county better than for many years.—
Corn, he says, is very promising. The
truth of the matter is, people have learned
that one acre well tilled and properly ma
nured is better than five without manure
poorly cultivated. There will probably be
no greater yield of cotton than ordinarily
of a good crop year—not. a3 much perhaps
as in the olden time—but it will be gather
ed from a smueh smaller area of laud. The
corn crop will doubtless be larger, in this
part of Georgia, than since 1861. The
prospect for a supply of bacon, according
to our observation, is also better than
usual. We hear of no hog cholera and but
little depredation bv “ hunters.”

The Caterpillar in Florida.— A pri
vate letter from Mr. G. A. Ellis, one of tlie
most experienced planters in East Florida,
dated Ellisville, Columbia county, June 23,
says: “ There is no doubt about the cater
pillar being here, though they are not doing
any harm as yet; hut they are here; and
have webbed up in small places, but in
small quantities. The fly can be seen al
most everywhere. Ido fear they will take
the present crop. If so, I don’t see what
will become of the people.”
Senator Sprague and the Columbia
Canal—The Project Not Yet Given
Up.—Colonel S. A. Pearce, late of the
United States Army, who, as agent of Sen
ator Sprague, of Rhode Island, purchased
the Columbia Canal and a large portion of
the Kiifsler brick yard property, several
months ago, is now in Columbia, accompa
nied by Mr. G. C. Tinsley, a surveyor, who
has commenced making a survey and esti
. mates for widening and deepening the ca
nal. Col. Pearce states that he has resign
ed his position in the -army, for the pur
pose of taking charge of this work; and
that Mr. Sprague is determined to push
ahead with it. Active operations ihay Hot
be commenced during the Summer months
but early in October, Col. P. asserts, a
heavy force of workmen will be employed.
