An Interesting Description of Surratt.
As Surratt sits in court, with hat
removed, we soo his face more clearly.
A small bend, long, glossy, light
brown hair, brushed, up from n full
fair brow; 'small aquilino nose, so
hollow,at its parting from tho fore?
head that a child's finger laid across
would hardly fill tho indentation;
eyes gray, deep-set, uear together,
earnest, secretive, but with a good
deal of composure, gained, perhaps,
in so long daring fate to do its worst;
mouth weak, half hidden by a light
auburn moustache, and a long, nar?
row-pointed tuft of beard pendant
from tho narrow chin. The face is
almost a triangle, narrowing down
regularly from the forehead on each
side to ?be pointed chin.
So the young prisoner sits, slowly
moving a palm fan, noticiug each
little detail in lawyer, witness aud
spectator, usually soreue, sometimes
smiling, through tho summer days,
while tho scales vibrato, weighing his
life or death. What memories must,
crowd upon him! His youth at the
Jesuit College; his deep zeal for tho
rebel cause; his long night journeys
with information from Washington
to Richmond; then with money and
messages from Richmond to Mon-'
treal; running pickets; shot at by
scouts; sad partings and glad meet?
ings with his betrothed, who waits
here to take tho stand and give her
woman's voice for his life; tho loug
Canadian hiding, going out only by
night and in priestly vestures; tidings
of the trial and execution of his fa?
miliars; of the impending fate of his
mother-(for human nature's sake
his counsel should prove their asser?
tion that he desired to come aud save
her, but was not allowed to)-then of
her ignomiuious death; tho secret
ocean passage; the concealments in
England and France; tho half year's
service as a common soldier; talking
everywhere of the ono great subject
that filled his thoughts; his arrest at
the little Italian village; his leap of
thirty-seven feet over tho parapet to
escape, with the connivance of his
guards; his flight to Naples; then up
tho Mediterranean; no permaucnt ro
fuge-uo rest for the solo of his foot;
his landing at Alexandria to find tho
file of Janissaries waiting to arrest
him again, and St. Marie, like an
avenger of blood, standing by to
identify him. Then sbip-board, pri?
son", manacles, and this long waiting
for the vordict.-New York Tribune.
THE COST OF REOONSTUUCTION ACTS.
The Secretary of War, in reply to a
resolution of inquiry, says the proba?
ble amount necessary to carry out the
reconstruction Aots is $1,018,277.
The general appropriation for this
object, heretofore, was 8500,000,
which was distributed as follows:
First Military District, $69,441; Se?
cond, 809,111; Third, 307,222;
Fourth, $07,222; Fifth, $166,066.
Tho Secretary says it appears, by es?
timates, that n further largo amount
is requisite-for the First District,
$80,000; Second, 8161,805; Third,
$27,778; Fourth District, estimated
to July 1, in addition to 807,222 al?
ready supplied, $216,539; Fifth, esti?
mates for one month, dated April 17,
for 8213,120, of which $166,066 has
already been supplied, leaving a re?
mainder uncalled for of $76,753. If
Gen. O rd's registers, estimated to the
1st of July only, should be continued
on duty and pay to tho eud of July,
there should be added to the above
expenses for that month, nt the rate
of compensation stated in his esti?
mate, tho sum of $159,781, and if
continued to tho end of August,
double that sum-8319,562. Thesame
likewise of General Sheridan's Dis?
trict was estimated for one month
only. If the monthly expenses con?
tinuo for a period of two months, at
the rates stat ec they will amount to
tho further sum of $218,120; if for
three months, to $136,810.

Official Report on India? Afluir?.
Tho following is tho substance of a
portion of the report of the Commis?
sioner of Indians Affairs, Jnly- 12,
1867, relative to tho existing Indian
hostilities, in reply to n resolution of
the United Statos Senate, July 3,
18G7:
The causes of the war are the hor?
rible Sand Creek massncro in Decem?
ber, 18G4, of friendly Cheyenne and
Arnpnhoo women and children, whieh
lins since cost the Government niuuy
valuable lives uud $10,000,000 in
money. The establishment by milita?
ry orders of tho Montuna road through
tho best and last reliablo hunting
grounds of tho Indians, und tho es?
tablishment of military posts thereon,
eontrary to their expressed wishes
and protests. The uncalled-for burn
of the tho village of tho friendly
Cheyennes and Arapahoes, und the
destruction of their property to tho
valuo of 8100,000, by order of Major
General Houeock.
The report goos on to make a num?
ber of recommendations, as follows:
That tho Government set apart a
territory somewhere North of the
Northern lino of Nebraska and West
of tho Missouri Uiver, of liberal di?
mensions, for the exclusive oceupa
pation and ultimate homo of all tho
Iudiuus North of the Platto and of
Iowa, and East of the summit of tho
Kooky Mountains, and make appro?
priations at once to enable this De?
partment to make suitable prepara?
tions for such Indians aa are now
ready to enter upon pastoral and
agricultural pursuits in said territo?
ry. To iuitiato this policy, appro?
priation is asked of ?1U0,000.
Kecommeuds that a large territory
be set apart South of tho Southam
lino of Kansas, and West of Arkan?
sas, including the present Indian
Territory and the country kuowu as
tho Stake Plains of Texas, and so
much of New Mexico ns may be ne?
cessary, for tho exclusive occupation
aud ultimate homo of all the Indiana
South of tho l'latto nud East of
Arizona; and to inaugurate this plan
an appropriation is asked of $100,
000.
' Recommends that all necessary
provisions be made by Congress to
procure at once that portion of
Texas, or so much thereof as may
be necessary, lyiug between tho West?
ern boundary of the Indian Territory
and tho Eastern boundary of New
Mexico.
Recommends that a commission bc
appointed to proceed to tho Pa?
cific const and Arizona, to select ont
or moro reservations of ample size,
upon which to concentrate all tin
Indians West of tho Rocky Moun?
tains; and for this object an appro
priation is asked of $20,000.
Thero aro on tho Niobrara River
near the Platto River, about 1,50(
friendly Sioux, who have separatee
from tho hostile bauds. To thii
number will soon bo added som<
2,000 or 2,500 friendly Iudiuus, nov
on their way from the hostile country
Pending hostilities, or until placed oi
reservations, and until they shall hav<
raised a crop or two, these Indian:
will have to be subsisted by the Go
vemment, or permitted to join thei
hostile kindred. To give thom three
quarter rations will cost $300,0UU
and it is recommended that this sun
bo appropriated by Congress, at th
present session, for their subsist
ence for tho fiscal year, ending Jun
30, 18G8.
The friendly Cheyennes, Arapo
hoes and Apaches of the South
forced by General Hancock's cora
maud to ubandon their nuntin
grounds set apart to them by th
treaty of October, 18G5, are now ti
or near Fort Cobb, in tho India
Territory, in a destitute condition
nud number, it is believed, fror
o.OOO to 7,000 souls. These Indian!
if not permitted to return to thei
own limiting grounds, must eitht
be fed by tho Government or b
driven to plundering the border ir
habitants ?md wir. An nppropri:
tion is therefore asked of $,"?00,00
for the pur poso of supply iug thea
Indians, if found to be necessary.
An appropriation is also asked <
S100.00U, to enable the Departmon
if found expedient, to rcmburso th
Southern Cheyennes and Arapaho?
and friendly Sioux for their villa^
aud property destroyed by our trooj
in April last, with a view to restons
peaceful relations to them and safe)
and security to life and property c
the plains.
A woman writes to th J Springfiel
Re-publican to adviso all women \
carry revolvors to protect thomselv
and their daughters from the attaol
of ruffians, as she considers that oi
laws and society mako very inad
qnato provision for the protectic
of women, and if they cannot g
revolvers, to carry a box of red pe

Tim DISEASE: OK AMERICA
Dyspopsia is s? id to bo the disenso of
Amorica. Ita victims may be found in all
stations of life. The poor as well as tho
rich are sufferers from its life-destroying
influence Tho symptoms of this disease
vary greatly in the different stages of tho
complaint. It gonemally commences with
a BCU'jatiou of fullness after eating, and a
changeable, diminished or lost appetite.
In some instance*, tho appetite ia vora?
cious, and when-in obedience to its
promptings-a largo portion of food is
taken into the stomach, pani follows in
that region, with general distress, nerv?
ousness and nausea. Flatulency and
heart-burn invariably attend this disease.
For all these symptoms,
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH HITTERS
will bo found an invaluable household
remedy, as its alterative, correctivo and
restorative properties are derived exclu?
sively from roots and plants, the virtues
of which are acknowledged by pharmaceu?
tics and physicians. Separately they have
often been prescribed by the profession,
but were never combined until Dr. Ilostet

to the groat distress and fearful Buffering

H'DQITARTERS, ITU MILITARY DIST.,
(MISSISSIPPI AND An KANSAS.)
VIUKSIU no, Miss., May 13. lt>G7.
I am glad tn see. that the attention of tho
gentle and humane ladies of tho North is
hi ing turned towards the sad and desolate
condition of this once happy land.
You, Madam, surrounded with the plenty
and comforts of a wealthy city, can scarcely
appreciate the fact that, in many parts of
tho South, whole communities arc, by a
failure in crops and the absence of inonoy
or its equivalent, left m want of the neces?
saries ol' life; and that poor women, with
large families of helpless children, so ac?
customed to depend on the labor of others,
that, now, with no husband, brother or
servant to help, and no money, thoy do not
know what to do or whero to go for food;
but aro left in the solitudes of these South?
ern forests, in rags aud gaunt with hunger,
subsisting on what the mother or larger
children can shoot or pick un in the woods,
or on what tho few neighbors, nearly as
poor as they are, can bring them.
Officers of my acquaintance have mot
with such mothers, long after dark, out in
the woods, with an old gun just (ired, and
tlio coon or possum just killed; have gone
home with them and met tho group of little
starvelings waiting patiently mother's re?
turn with some of the only sort of food
they had tasted for weeks; and women and
children have been found within sixty miles
of the capital of a Southern State, during
the past year, who had starved to death in
their lonesome cabins. Theso cases of
great distress arc rare in Southern cities,
for there, oven the most delicately bred can
generally lind some work which they can
do to keep the wolf from the door: but the
farms or plantations in the South aro pe?
culiarly secluded, with miles of forest or
swamp bet wei n them, poor roads, and the
stock . w\ Animals nearly all taken by the
war, the famine, the tloods, or the thieves,
who in such times infest a country, ami the
distressed families aro often, by the time
necessity makes them want to leave, too
siek to travel on foot anti then; is no olin r ,
waj to go.
Your proposed entertainment, Madam,
should it pro.Ineo indy funds enough to re?
lieve aAsmall fraction of the destitution of
this country, will bo a good beginning, and ?
may be followed in other cities North by
similar appeals to people who have happily
never r it the desolation and tho horrors
which follow in the tracks of great armies
of invasion. (Jod speed your society in the
good work, is the with of. Madam, voura

Afr*, ffarlowe Mather-MY DEAR MADAM:
I shall be lon glad if anything ' ea suv
will aid the society in its noble work. A
large proportion of the people of the South
bave suffered and many are still suffering
almost to Die limit of endurance from the
devastation of war and subsequent failure
of crops. They are making every possible
exertion to revive their various branches
of industry and become self-supporting.
The liberal assistance which the Northern
poople aro well able to give, will relieve a
great amount of diatre&s, and will no doubt
ho sufficient to place the poor of the South
beyond further Buffering for food. The
recent manifestations of an almost univer?
sal desire throughout thc South foraiealiv
fraternal re-umon with the North, may weil
serve to stunulate the generous sympathies !
of the Northern poople, while nothing could I
do more to foster and encourage (he growth '
of a healthy sentiment in the South than
tho generous aid which it is tho mission nf
your society to invoke. I sincerely hope
tho noble efforts of tho society may result
in tho most abundant success." I am, dear
Madam, very respectfully, your obedient
servant, J. M. SCHOFIELD, Maj. Gou.
GREENSBORO, May 14, 1807
Have jn..t returned from a tour throu
the section made memorable by "f
man's march to the seaboard." Pov,.
suffering and destitution of tho people ... .
scarcely be realized-living in huts, rudely
constructed of charred boards, of ralbi,
bougha and mud, you ar? met by hollow
eyed, emaciated forma, whose first words
are "bread"-for something to stille the
cravings of hunger. In ono place, 1 .wit?
nessed the body of a child borne to its last
rest, on a board, in tho saino raus iu which
it died. In another, fonr females existed
for a week on two pounds of corn, together
with soino roots. On the road, I met an?
other who had walked twelve miloB to beg
sonn; food for br r children. Many other
instances can be givoU of sad suffering
from actual want of food. Verv trulv,
FREDERICK WAT XS, M. D.
Thc public have already responded nobly
to tlie call, but not to thc extent required
to keep starvation from making victims of
many. Additional funds must ho raised at
once; the cate ie urgent. The Lady Ma?
nagers, after mature deliberation, have
decided to bring it before tho generous
people of the North, by giving a Grand
National Entertainment, trusting to their
active co-operation and sympathizing aid
for the immediate supply of means to en?
able them to purchaso and forward food
to starving thousands. Tho Grand Na?
tional Entertainment will bo given at
Washington, D. C., August 1,1807. ?500,000
tickets will bo offered for salo, at $2 each.
Every ticket will bo entitled to an award,
which will take place at tho same time.
Half of tho amount will be in valuable

bo devoted at once by tho Lady Managers
to purchasing food to bo sent South for
immediate distribution among the most
needy. Tho Lady Managers have entered
into an arrangement with Messrs.Bentley,

tickets, and conduct thc entertainment in
a manner worthv tho patronage and Bup

THE TRIUMPH OF ART!
MORE TESTIMONY IN FAVOR OF
Heinitsh's Queen's Delight.
EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS: "Tho
Queen's Delight is beginning to
awaken tho attention of our physicians.
Its remarkable curativo power is seen in
its wonderful effect upon disease. As a
blood purifier, there is no medicino like it
known to tho profusion. A gentleman
told mo that bin eon has been taking tho
Queen's Delight, and is more benefited by
it than by any other medicine. He wants
a dozen bottles."
Extract from a letter: "It ie due to you
to statu in this public manner, iti order
that the people may know tho truth, that
I have tr?en yonr Queen's Delight, and
found it not only what you said it was-"a
pure medicine"-but the best medicine I
have ever taken for eruptions and general
bad health. 1 had an eruption all over my
body, with impaired digestion and disor?
dered liver, and have tried a great many
medicines without any benefit. I have
taken one bottle of your Queen's Delight,
the eruption lias disappeared, my appetite
ia better, my liver and digestion is im
pioved. I nm satisfied one or two moro
bottles will euro me."
Extract from a letter: "At the close of
the war, my constitution waa shattered. I
could not eat, sleep or perform any duty
whatever, such was my prostrato condi?
tion. .Mi di.-me and medical aid I had in
abundance, such was my condition up to a
few months since, when I began thc nae of
your Queen's Delight. I have used two
bottles, my constitution is greatly im?
proved, my appetite ?H good, enjoy refresh
ing sleep, and am able to perform my shale
of daily labor."
Extract from a letter-Wonderful effect
of only one bottle: "1 have used only a
half bottle of 'Queen's Delight' for boils
and eruptions of the skin and itching hu?
mors of the blood, which annoyed me very
milch. I am entirely cured, x thitik your
medicine a valuable one."
A remarkable case of liver complaint and
headache cured bv thu use. of "Heinitsh's
Queen's Delight:"" A lady of unquestioned
worth and reputation voluntarily gives tes?
timony of the wonderful effects of this
medicine. .She has been from early years
a martyr to Headaches, caused by imper?
fect action of thu liver, producing intense
headache and pain over the eyes. She has
taken only four bottles, and assnros us or
tho perfect cure it has made. She now en
jovs good health.
Still another: "During last spring, I had
been troubled with obstinat?; chills and
fever, which, when cored, lort my ayetom
in a wretched condition, blood impnre, and
I was afflicted with an angry, and, as I at
ono time thought, an incurable, cutaneous
eruption over my entire body. The most
violent remedies suggested failed to work
a cure, until, at the instance of a friend, I
tried Dr. Heinitsh's Queen's Delight. Less
than two bottles cured me, leaving my akin
in a healthy condition. My general health
is as good as ever. For such purooees. I
havo, over since my cure, unhesitatingly
recommended your Queen's Delight."
Don't buy any but tho right kind. All
genuine Queen's Delight has tho copy-rig ht
mark on the outside, and it is the only
medicino which produces th - se. wonderful
eurea. For sale wholesale and retail at
