CONCLUSION OF SATURD: aoe OEEDINGsS. “ake WHO PAYNE Is. aS as POWELL, OF FLORIDA, HIS FATHER: ee Onur report of the proceedings of the conspi- Tacy Court on Saturday conciuded with the testimony of Miss Anna Ward. TESTIMONY OF MR. SESSFORD. Witness on the 11th of April was employed 8s ticket seller at Ford’s theater. The boxes used by the President were not applied for that evening, nor were tickets to those boxes soid during the day. _ No farther witnesses for the defense being in attendance, Mr. Doster made application for a personal examination to be made of the prisoner Payne, by Dr. Nichols, superinien- dent of the Government Institution tor the Ineage, for the purpose of testing the sanity of the prisoner—waich application was granted. Mr. Doster also requested tbat the testimony for the cerenes be not considered as closed until George Powell, the father of Payne, and other witnesses, who bad been eummoned from Floride#, who weuld testify in regerd to Payne’s antecedents and tendency op the part of the family to insanity, should be pred-nt Judge Bingham.—Then are we toregard that as an authentic statement, that the prisoner’s name is Powell? Mr. Doster.—I have stated thathis father’s name is Poweil, and I take it tor granted the inference will ke drawn tuat that is the name of the prisoner. Col. Burnett stated that a reasonable time would be allowed for the defense to meet the new evidence introduced by the Government to-day. Further than that, he hoped there would be no. postponement. The President of the court said that ample time had been allowed to obtain witnesses for the defense, and that the request of Mr. Dester would not granted, The court adjourned until Monday at 10a.m. THE CONSPIRACY ‘TRIALS, THE RESERVED TESTIMONY. The following being some of the testimony heretofore reserved, appears speciaily in the Cincinnati Commerciai of Friday last, which states that authority has just been given for its publication; SANFORD Conover testified as follows: I am a native of New York: have resided in Canada since October last; was conscripted into the Confederate army and detailed to service in the War Department of the Confederacy at Richmond, under James A. Seddon. Secretary of War. While in Canada was intimately ac- qnainted with G. N, gpanders, Jacob Thomp- son, Dr. Blackburn, cker, Wm. O. Cleary, Capt. Castleman, Mr. Cameron, Porterfield, Capt. Magruder, and others; 1 also knew Olem- ent ©; Clay and Gen. Carroll, of Tennessee; 1 knew Mr. Surratt also, and J. W. Booth, and visited these gentlemen in Canada; saw Sur- Tatt thereon several occasions ‘last April in Mr. Jacob Thompson’s room; also in company with George N. Sanders and other rebels in Canada; Surratt is abeut 5 feet 9 or 10 inches high; a fair complexioned man with light hair; I saw him about the 6th or 7th of April with Thompson, Sanders and Booth. At that time he delivered to Thompsod in his room, in my presélice dispatchés from Richmond to Thomp- gon, trom Benjamin, and trom Jefferson Davis; the latter either a cypher dispatch or a letter. Benjamin was Secretary of State of the Con- federacy. Previous to this, Thompson cor- versed with me upon thesubject of & plot to assassinate President Lincoln and his Cabinet of which I gave notice »=*:-~ ~_ ws BI saw Dr. Stuart Robinson, a doctor of di- vinity, residing is Toronto; he editeda paper in Kentucky. have seen him with-Thomp- son and Blackburn, and he was present when some of theseschemes were discussed; he ap- proved them. He said anything that could be done under heaven would justify them under the circumstances. He appeared upon very intimate terma with Blackburn and Thomp- son. Three or four days after the assassina- tion of the President, I saw John H. Sarratrin Canada, with Porterfield, a Southern rebel, now declared a British subject by the Canadian Parliament. I learned immediately afterward that Surratt was suspected, was pursued, ahd hsd degamped. I hada knowledge that Jetf. Davis. the head of the so-called Confeder- ate Si ) Was cailed ite, President, and had control of its civil administration. General Carroll was present when Surratt brought the dispatches from Richmiond, and when they were read by Thompson, I believe there were one or two others. General Carroll, of Ten- nessee, then said he was more anxious that Mr. Johnson should be killed: than any one else. He said: «If the damned —__, lonse was not killed by some’ ”” he would kill himself. He referred to Vice President Johnson. His expression was a word of contempt fore tailor; it means a tailor’s louse,:.Booth was known in Canada by the nickname of “Pet.” 1 think I have heard TRompson so name him; cer- tainty Cleary. Kennedy, who fired the city ot New York, and was executed, was spoken of as having performed that deed by authority of the rebel government, under the direction of Thompson, This was communicated tome by Thompson himself, or in conversation in his presence. Thompson said Kennedy deserved to be hanged, and he was devilish glad he was hanged, tor he wasa stupid fellov’, and had managed things very badly. Jas.B. MeRRitT testified—I am!s physician, and have been in Canada about a vear; in Oc- tober and November last was in Toronto ; met George Young there, a rebel from Kentucky; also Col. Steele, from Kentucky. Young said to me, ‘we have something of mnch more im- portance than any raids.’ He told me it was determined that Old Abe" should never be inaugurated; that they had plenty of friends in Washington, and called Mr. Lincoln «a damn- ed old tyrant.’ I afterwards saw George N. Sanders and Colonel Steele together. Colonel Steele said, “the damned old tyrant never will serve another term, if ‘Be is elected.” Sanders said at the same time, he would keep himself mighty closeif he did serve an- other term.” In Montreal, in February last, i heard Sanders name a number of persons ready. and willing toremove the President, Vice-Pres- ident, cabiney, and some of the leading Gene- Tals ofthe Uae d States; and headded that there ‘was any amount of money to accomplish this purpose, meaning the assassination of these rsons, He then read a letter, which he said fenea just received from the President of our Confederacy, meaping Jefferson Davis, and which letter justified him in making any arrangements jhat he could to accomplish such object. There was 8 meeting at that time of these rebels, and a letter was-Tead to them, the substance of which was, that if the Southerners in the Can- adas and the States were willing to be governed by such a tyrant as Lincoln, he (Dayis} did not wish to recognize them as friends, and that he approved of the proposi- tion to assassinate him. Colonel Steele read the letter, also Oaptain Scott, Geo. Yeung and Hill, all rebels. This meeting was about tho middle ‘of last February. At the meeting, Sanders named some of the persons who were to accomplish the assassination, and among them he named J. W. Booth, whom I had seen in Montreal in October. He also named George Harper, Charles Caldwell, Randall and Har. rison. Herold went by the name of Harrison. 1 beard Surratt’s name aleo mentioned, and Herold. There was a person named whom they called “Plug Tobacco.” I saw Herold in Toronto. Sanders said Booth was heart and sou] in this matter; he was a cousin to Beale, _ who was hanged in New York.’ He added that if they could dispose of Lincoln, it would be an easy matter to dispose of Mr. Johnson in some of his drunken revelries, that if they could dispose of the President, Vice President and Cabinet, and that if Mr. Seward could be disposed of, it would satisfy the people North, and that a peace could be obtained; that they had-endeavored to bring about a war will England, but Mr. Seward, through his energy and sagacity, had thwarted their efforts, and for that reason they wanted to get. rid of him. On the Sth or-6th of April Tast, I’ met ‘Har- per, who said that they were going to the an to“kick up the damnedest row, such as st never been heard of,” he added that if I Gee: hear of the death of Old Abe, the Vice Etta: dent, and of General Dix, in less as i iat I might put him down as a damne ee od abet the 6th of April.

I haysseen Payne, the prisoner, a nuniber of times in Canada, about the Falls, in the summer of "64, ani ajso at the Queen’s Hotel, at Toronto, Oapada est, where I conversed with Bim. { he had an interview with Mr. Thompson; severa} others had sought an interyiew while I was closeted, and had been refused. On leaving Thompson’s room, 1 saw Payne in the passage way, near the door, with Clenjent O. Clay, talking to him; Mr. Clay stopped me, and fla- ished his co Wenine' with this man, in an upder tone. ‘ben he left me he said, « Waic for me, I wfll feturn.” Hegoon came back, and bade me good-bye, and Bsked where ne could see mé aftera time. 1 told him, and ap- pointed a meeting. I spoke to thia man Payne 1 Clay’s absence, and asked him who he was. He taid, ‘Ob, 1’m 8 Canadian,” which was to say, I don’t wis&® you to ask me anything more. I mentioned him to Ciay when I mes him after atime; Clay asked, “What did he say 1’ “I told him, and Clay ans wereds'Tifat’s 80; he is a Canadian,” and laughed; and added, “We trust bim.” “Canadian” is an expres- sion for their friends, and his condact was ao fe&tion that their intercourse was of a yery confidential nature. I baye been in Canada since the assatcinstion; a few daye after, } met Beverly Tucker at Montreal. He ssid «Mr. Lincoln deserved his death long ago;’ that “it was a pity he did rot die long ago,’ and that it was too bad the boys had. not been allowed to go when they wanted to. He re- qerced to the men who were to aSsaskinate im. had @ conversation with Wm. C. Cleary, and told him what Mr. Thompson said io January. He said that Booth was one of the parties to whom Thompson had referred; he Said also, that it Was too bad thatthe whole work had not'been done. referring to the as- sassination, Cleary, who was confidant of Mr. Thompson, toid méso.. Thompson said Cleary was avery close mouthedman. Cleary also said that “they had better look ont, we have notdone yet.” He remarked that they ‘would never be conquered; would never give up. He also said that Booth had visited ‘Thompson in the winter andin the summer. These parties knew they were suspected of the assagsination & few days after, and nee destroying & great many papers, so they ‘old me. I acted asa Government detective in Canada, and assumed the name of James Thompson, though never registered it, but always some other name. whole object was to serve the Government. eaw this cipher (found among Booth’s ‘effects,) in Mr. Olay’s house, at St. Oatherine’s, in the summer of 186i.

Clay said not to tell Sanders -what they entrusted te me; he said that he was a very good maw. to do their dirty werk: that he associated with them that they could not associate with; that hé was very weeful in that way.
