THE DBAD THAT"MIGHT BE LIVING.

arm's length. Many a weakling goes down to the

TEB'S CBLKBRATBD STOMACH BITTEBS
woul have raved. It fs a consolation, however,
to know that this glorious Tonic?a vitalizing
Blixir without a single drawback?is preserving
the lives of multitudes. In cases of general de
bility acd prostration, it is producing effects that
are pertaps more astonishing than anything
heretofore observed or recorded in the history of
medical treatment. Feeble, emaciated and de
fpairing patients, whose powers of digtstion seem
to be actually extinguished, recover their appe
tite, strength and spirits, under a course of the
Bitters, with a rapidity that is positively amaxing.
All that the proprietors originally expected from
the preparation was long ago thrown into the
snade by its actual results. New virtues, which
they had never thought of attributing to it, are
continually being developed in its application to
new eases. As a preventative of diseases af every

IWSFBOBmWATIOB AT OHBSTBBTOWN, MD ?
Monday last being Whitsunday holiday, there
was the largest gathering of negroes in our
town that has been seen for many years, some
ol whom seemed to think they were "free" to
do pretty much as they pleased. Several col
lisions took place between them and the whites,
the moot serious of which occurred in front of
the omceof Justice Earnest. Wbilst an in
vestigation was being bad in the case of a
negro for striking the son of one of our citi
zens with a whip, the negroes flocked in large
crowds to the front of the office and on baing
told by Constable Adkinaon to fall back, one
of tbem grabbed that officer by the throat and
used threatening language No other demon
atrationa was made upon the officer, which
"fh prevented by the prompt inter
position of the white persons present, who
dispersed the crowd and administered to the
"je assault a sound drubbing.
in some instances ladies were Insulted on the
streets, and one or two arrests were made on
charge of threats toward the officers.?Kent

subscribed to under tne amnesty proclama

T,hl? requirement not being strictly com

fresh circular reminding them of their
duty has been issued. The number of oaths
filled at the department taken under Mr
Lincoln's proclamation of Decembers, 1*^63, is

rapidly Increasing. When the oaths are re

to wreak revenge. French and McAleer have

IKrom the Manchester Guardian, May 2?.]
'resident Davis is in the hands of his ene
mies. For the sake of a cause worthy of sup
port, and snpported witn rare devotion, it
will be fortunate that the man who has acted
as its head lrom the beginning to lis mourn
ful end la freed from the reproach of com
plicity in a detestable crime. But his life 5s in
great danger, and with it tbe still graver is
eues which depend open his being fairly and
honorably treated. It is undoubtedly in the
power ol the Federal Government to punish
him to the last extremity for the political of
:enie of levying war against them; and we
fear it is but too consistent with the threats of
?eiigtance uttered by President Johnson that
?his course should be taken. Now, then, is the
titre lor warning. That the influence ot a
strong party in me North will be earnestly ex
ertea to prevent so snameful a crime from
staining tbe success ot the Hepubhc there is
every reason to believe. But how far counsels
of dignity and justice may accord with :he
will of the Federal Government, and how far
it may even be possible for the Executive to
carry them out against the pressure of pop
ular demands for vengeance, are matters of
uncertainty. It is sincerely to be hoped, how
ever, that tbey may prevail to prevent the
horrors of the gibbet being added to those
which have been wrought by the sword; and
no efforts which it may be thought the civil
ized powers of the world can usefully employ
towards the accomplishment of this end ought
to be withheld.
f From the London Timet;.]
The intelligence of the capture ol Mr. Jeffer
son Davis will produce a feeling of uneasiness
and anxiety in every country ia Europe. We
had hoped, and we seemed to have good reason
to hope, that, either througn the skill of bis
own dispositions or by tne wise connivance of
hie enemies, Mr Davis would have effected his
escape from the land where he has played his
stake so boldly and lost it so completely. The
hopee of the teouth are evidently crushed be
yond all chance of redemption, and it would
have been a wise as well as a magnanimous
policy to suffer Its leaders to escape.
We bad a rebellion in 1M? in Ireland, but we
disdained to dip our hands in the blood of the
rebels. We pardoned Smith O'Brien and
Mitcbel, and Meagher. In their case there
v,aa no difficulty in ascertaining the law: tbe
crime was perfectly well known, and the pun
ishment equally notorious. The capital pun
ishment ot Charles I., whatever people may
think of It now, was undoubtedly a great mis
take, and probably one of the principal causes
of the long and dreary period during which we
had to wait before the accomplishment of our
liberties was finally attained. Equally impol
itic was tbe execution of Louis XVI. Had we
seized Washington in tbe early part of tbe
Be volutionary war, Wb might have considered
ourselves justified In executing him as a de
serter, forks bad once borne the King's com
mission. But long before the end of the war
we bad learned to know him and respect him,
and had he fallen into our hands he would
have been considered entitled to all the cour
tesies dae to a generous rnd noble-minded
adversary.
All this is,of course, written on the suppo
sition, the truth of which we do not tor a mo
ment doubt, that it will be found impossible to
connect Mr. Davis In any way with the atro
cious plot for the assassination of Mr. Lincoln:
Our object Is not to palliate that enormous
crime, and If it be possible to show that Mr.
Davis was cognizant of It, we have nothing to
say in bis defense. We desire only to take the
first opportunity of representing how enor
mous woald be the guilt of commencing a
proscription whicta wou.'d give the tone M all
political contests In America for the neat een
tury.
The Paris Temps is disinclined to believe
that Da-vis was an accomplice in the assassi
nation; La France takes a simitar view, and
booes that be will be leniently dealt with; the
Opinion Natlouale is of tbe opinion that his
capture will produce? moral embarrassments,"
and the Pays scouts the idea that he Is an as
sassin. The Patre, bewever, takes somewhat
different ground, remarking that, "Although
this last triumph of tbe North must be de
plored in view ot the principle of Dopular lib
erty, still it should be regarded as a providen
tial event for tbe future of tbe Southern States.
In fact, the demagogic party has got itself Into
a position antagonists to every sentiment
ot humanity, justice and generesity, and the
death of Mr. Davis by violence would cover
the victors with shame and ruin them mor
ally."
TFrom the London Daily News ]
Mr. Davis has now fallen into the bands of
tbe Law, and we sincerely wish that he may
find more consideration than he showed his
fellow-countrymen. Now that he is taken we
can only repeat what we said ten days ago?
that we c annot see what the Government or
peopleof the Union gain by his capture. His
history is & severer penalty than any that
an earthly tribunal can pronounce. Tbe latter
can do nothing to make the rebellion more in
famous. Tbe Government of the United
States is warranted in doing everything to ex
tirpate tbe deep-seated social causes of the
recent war, but its truest friends must hope
that it will lay aside all thought of political
vengeance, and be content with the splendid
vindication of tbe national dignity by its citi
zen soldiers. Tbe charge which has been
brought against Mr. Davis of complicity with
the conspirators against Mr. Lincoln Is an
other matter, and a government that might be
content to let a traitor escape with a slight
punisbment would be bound to visit partici
pation In murders with the heaviest penal
ties .
