WASHINGTON, May 4.-Mr. Don? nelly, in his invective against L. B.

LI cora.-Elizabeth Rockley, "thir years a slave and five years modi. and frieud to Mrs. Abraham Lincoln has written, or had written for her, book, purporting to give many tho scenes and conversations at t White House, which transpired wit in ber view and hearing. Much the book is trash, all of it is gossi but some of the political persons ties and opinions of Mrs. Linc< may not be uninteresting. Sho represented to have beou very bit against Mr. Chase, classing bim a selfish politician, instead of a patri and warning Mr. Lincoln not to tr him too far, which advice her hi band playfully turned away and t regarded. On Mr. Seward she j especially severe, and rarely lost opportunity'to say an uukind w against him. Mrs. Lincoln, it wo seem, was like very many other y. plo in one particular, at least, I that was, ia priding herself on ability to read human character i to command armies. She always dared Gen. Grant to be a g "bother," and said he was not fit be at the head of an army. W her husband instanced Gen. Gra successes, she replied : "Yes, be generally manages claim a victory, but such a viet? He loses two men to the enemy's i He has no management, no ret for life, If the war should conti I four years longer, and he should i main in power, he would depopr ! the North. I could fight an arm well myself." j She is also reported to have 'elated that if Grant should eve 1 elected President of tho Ur j States, she would desire to leave country and remain absent du his term of office. Tho rcpntet travaganco of Mrs. Lincoln in " ry" is reiterated, and hor anxiety her husband's re-election is rc 8ented as chiefly growing out desire for means to meet her i debts. _ Two NEGROES BURNED ALIVE Mon OF THEIR OWN COLOR.-A J 1 ly named Keenan, consisting of band, wife, a child three years and an infant, wore murdered oi 11th ultimo, near Omega, Louis and the house burned. The \ burg Herald, of the 22d, give account of tho capture and co sion of tho murderers-two neg As the guard who captured wero proceeding to Richmond, woyo overtaken by a gang of nef who took charge of tho murd* chained them by their necks tree, procured a bale of hay with that constructed a bonfire burned thom alive. A radical editor, pewly imp from Massachusetts, uudertoo give the people of Kansas City, so uri, tv practical lesson in i equality one day last week. H< sauted a negro with a ticket to amusement in Frauk's Hall, in to mako ? case of judicial dec Thc negro weut to tho show, an led out by a radical constable, officer was tried and acquitt?e radical jury and radical joel me. i Edwin. Kelly, the negro minstrel, who has been on .trial during the p.-iafc two days in the Court of Gene? ral Sessions, for tho murder Of Thomas J. Sharp, another member ?.of the minstrel fraternity, in front of the Fifth Avenue Opera House, in ' December last, was yesterday acquit? ted by the jury, who rendered their verdict after a deliberation of not more than twelve minutes. We sup? pose that the conclusion of the jury will meet tho public idea of justice, as Sharp, who was a large, powerful man, was the aggressor in the affray, and Kelly, whose p7iysiqne was quite the reverse of his opponent's, only used his pistol after he bad received ? terrible mauling, and when his life was clearly in jeopardy. [Hew York Times. Daring the prevalence of a violent storm on Wednesday night last, a family named Simpson, living near Ashland, Tenn., about twelve miles from Nashville, met with a sad ca? lamity. The house occupied by the family, stood at the bottom of a steep hill; and a tree on the top, being up? rooted by the storm, came crashing down the precipice and through the house, the butt end foremost. The mother and daughter, who were in bed at the time, were knocked clear ont of the house, both receiving fatal injuries. The father was also shock? ingly bruised and battered, while a little baby, who occupied the cradle, was landed iu the fire-plaoo, and es? caped almost unhurt. A correspondent of the London Times, at Athens, has lately been de? scribing the decadence of Greece, as compared with its anoient activity and splendor. He writes that now a cart cannot pass along the road from Pylos to Sparta, where a carriage conld travel in the days of Homer, and that a mule now climbs with dif? ficulty over rooks through which Pyr? rhus led a train of elephants. Even vegetation has withered and decayed. Mountains once covered with forests ore now bare rocks. Water is sought for in vain in the channels of streams immortalized in song. The oak tree has disappeared, and the forests of chesnut aro yearly diminishing in extent. MERE BOSH!-Mayor Blodgett pro? poses, in Council, to furnish rations or to levy au additional tax to sup? port radical employees who are dis? charged by conservative employers. That's Mayor bosh! Done to frighten weak-kneed conservatives. "Run, big Fraid; little Fraid will c\tch you!"-Augusta Chronicle. Tho difference: When a rebel in? sults a Union (?) man, he is arrested and tried by military commission ; but when a scalawag commits an outrage on a Democrat, the latter is referred to tho civil authorities for protection.

Thc colored President of tho Loyal League of Pulaski County, Georgia, bas issued a proclamation disbanding that body, as all its meetings, ac? cording to the order of Gen. Meado, aro prohibited from being held. We havo not heard of any other branches of the Loyal Leagno taking this view of Gen. Meade's order. It is thonght that the success of tho Abyssinian expedition will have so favorable au effect on the English political situation, that Disraeli can taco Parliament and tax-payers with strong claims upon their forbearance and respect. On Saturday, a foreign gentleman, just arrived at Now York by steamer, was escorted to thc United States Marshal's office, where his boot beel was struck off and found to contain 88,000 worth of diamonds.

McCulloch's watch has been recovered by purchase from a Federal officer, who took it from tho dead body. The Rev. James Stacey, a much loved Methodist minister, died in Sumter, on the 1st.
