The Examination of Merritt the As sasxi nation of President Lincoln. Washington, April 23. Mr. Rogers, of New Jersey, one of the members of tho House Commitee on the Judiciary, who 'was not present when Dr. James B.

He made another admis sion that, to make up the sum paid to him by Mr. Stanton, was included over fourteen hundred dollars for book ac counts and claims which he had against the people of Canada tor services .pre tended to have rendered to theirt as a physician. He alleged as an excusefor his being unable to collect his claims against the Canadians, that he was com pelled to leave there as soon as it was ascertained he had given his testimony before tho Military Commission. He stated further that ho refused to come here and be a witness until Secretary Stanton sent him a despatch promising him a safe passport, and protection here from arrest as a conspirator in the aseas sination p!ot.
