REMEMBRANCES TO THE EDITOR.---U used to be
a custom in the country districts, with newly-mar.
_Tied couples, to• send on the eve of their union
take, or a subscription, or something else of value,
to the editor of their county paper. The custom has
become nearly obsolete, but now and then we hear
of instances which bring baok our recollections of
the "good old times." A contemporary, in
daysbarg, has been thus favored, and celebrates it
In this strain
Acoompanying two marriage notices published
today were two delicious Cakes. A wedding cake
in a printing tffice produces the most serene re
sults. Its sacred associations, its suggestion of an
unbroken dream of happiness, neutralize the rude
diabolism of its gloomy walls, and almost but.
'lionize its young imps. It illumines its inky atmo
sphere, and sheds over alt a hallowed light. It is
the pure and beautiful amid blackness. In return
for these delicious souvenirs of a wedding day, this
<office desires to rise above a mere question of di.
steticsand view the world outside its (illy windows
In the light of all that's beautiful an good. It
summons up again its old feelings of kindness, and
bespeaks for four—for her, for him, for them—the
well-wishes of its well wishing heart, and the bless
ing that makes happy. It hopes that 1118 may shed
a milder and Calmer beam upon these pairs that
often falls upon many. It would give them.ever the
sunny bloom of hope, ending in the fruition of joys
and pxosperity. It would send them out upon their
.happy lives girt and armed with heart-chains of
love interwoven in pleasant bondage till the end—
happy till the end. All this, this grimy old office
would wish for these married twain, for this old
office has always known
"There's nothing half so sweet in life •
As Love's young 'dream."
EDITOR RBTERRD.—Joseph C. Hays, Esq., after

Journal establishment and retired from Its editorial
management. During his long editorial career, Mr.
Mays has been an earnest and persistent anti-slavery
man, the prominent sentiment in his valedictory
being that • 'Slavery was about the only cause of all
our trouble as a natton. ,, Mr. John D. Nicholas, a
thorough Union Republican, succeeds Mr. Hays.

VIE ANDERSON CAVALRY.
This fine troop.of horsemen, more properly known
as the 15th Pennsylvania Cavalry, have been for
some four or five months past, until within a few
weeks since, performing duty in the Department
of East Tennessee, under the immediate. supervi
sion of General 011lem, the despatcher of the cele
brated horse-thief and outlaw, John Morgan. The
dangerous duty of scouring the country for bush
whackers, assassins, and the like, was assigned
to them, and the manner in which they discharged
the duties entrusted to them was fully up to the ex
pectations of their commander, and in his official re
port or his operations in the neighborhood of Ball's
Gap, he calls attention of the War Department to
this fact. A short time since they were ordered to
Camp Lookout, Wanhatohle, Tenn., where they
were ordered to remain until after election. In
order that peace and tranquility might prevail, and
that all the voter's might have a chance to deposit
their votes, as they deemed proper, the following
general orders were lamed on the day previous to the
eleotion, and read within the hearing or the mem
bora

Esq., for Commonwealth, and C. W. Brooke, Esq.,
for defence. •
The office was pretty well filled with parties and ,
Spectators, and fifteen minutes after sharp time Mr.
Brooke .desired to know why the Gominonwealth
did not proceed with the investigation.
"Because lam waiting for one of the witnesses,"
replied Mr. Simpson.
• " Cannot we go on without him I"
"No, be is the foundation 01 the ease."
" Well, let us go on, and take the foundation after
wards." Pause.
TUB OPENING.
Mr. Simpson, on behalf of the Commonwealth,
said : The case before Non, Mr. Alderman, is In re
lerence to the election officers of the Eighth division
of the Fourth ward, In which they art:cc:tiara - ad with
natsdemeanor; partly: under the law of 1810 and'
partly under the law of nag. The act of 1860 pro:
vides for the appointment of watchers upon the peti
tion of a certain. number of citizens who may be.
lieve such appointment to be, necessary to have an'
election conducted honestly. The law makes it a
misdemeanor for any one, so appointed se tiwa.toher,
to refuse or neglect to do the duty enjoined upon
him by the con*. We will prove that the Court of
Common Pleas appointed three mar as watchers,'
who, upon fre morning of the election, proceeded to ,
the election division, fbund :the door locked against
them, and were refused admittance. For what pur
pose .his was done will' be for the defence to' show.
I am also advised that, in consequence of this re.
fusel, the -election officers put into the ballot-box
three hundred ,and more of illegal votes. The two
principal points I will be able to prove by compe
tent witnesses.
AVID'HICOR.
Samuel F.;Strlngfellow sworn.--I was appointed
as one of the watchers to go to the polls of the
Eighth division of the Fourth ward; I went with
Mr: Edwards and Mr. Doran ; the election poll was
at Matbieu's, on Eighth street, below Shippen ; we
went there at five minutes before eight o'clock ; wont
to the back door leading into the eleotlon room ; we
found the door fastened, and we oould not get in;
we waited until the window was open and went to, it ;
we were informed that we could not be .admitted;
the election ollicerahad commenced to, receive votes;
I was not admitted into the room.
Cross-examined.—l am one of the persons ap
'pointed as a watcher; Joseph Lyndall handed the
paper oreertificate to me in the city executive com
mittee room ;.I . was not present in the Alpurt of
001hIonn Pleas ; Ilir.DOran had the certifican when
we applied for admission at 'the election poll;' I
don't remember having the certificate in my hand;
I do not know where it is now ; I don't know whether
'the seal of the. Court was attached to it or not; I
don't know whose , name was signed to It; Joseph
.Lyndall wrote my name in the certificate ; I think
he did, as he took the pen to write my name • this
was not In the Court of Common Pleas room ; rhos.
Doran and Mr. EdWards went with me to the elec
tion poll; can't say who the election officer
was, - who was spoken to ; suppose ho was an
election °Meer, - as he was 7n the room; don't sup
pose that any, one ought to be there unless legally
authorized to be there ; they. , looked at the paper ;
can't say who looked,,as the window was small, and
we could not 800 distinctly; I did not, hear any con
versation between the officers and Doran; I was ap.
pointed a day or two before the election; I did not
give notice to any body that I had been appointed.
Wm: H. Edwards sworn.—On the morning of the
election, at five minutes , before eight o'clock, we
went to the election polls and found the door locked;
Alderman McMullen said we could not get in ;'we
went to the window ; Mr. Doran had the certificate
of our appointment, and held it to the window ; I
don't know that it was the certificate ; I suppose it
was.
Cross-exareined.We knocked several times at
the door of the election poll, and were told we could
not be admitted ; we were not admitted.
.Mr. Simpson now presented the petition of citizens
who made application to . the - court for the appoint
ment of watchers ; this document is signed by his
Honor Judge Allison.
Mr. Brooke objected to the reception of the paper,
unless the signatures of the petitioners were legally
proven.
Mr. Simpson replied that he would offer it now;
under the ruling of the court It was not necessary
at this stage of the 'proceedings to - prove the dom.
meat: Here if is with the aiguature of the judge at
tached.
Mr. Brooke. Let us have the legal proof; that's
what I want.
Dir. Simpson. You have it here In the document
itself.
Mr. - Brooke. Now, may it please your Honor, if
the gentleman desires to conduct this ease plea
santly, I will do so too ; but, if he wishes to depart
from the usual courtesy, why I am ready for him at
that; I can be as crabbed as he.
Mr. Simpson. I will withdraw the petition for the
present, until I can have Mr. Doran here.
By the Alderman. When can you have him
herel
Mr. Simpson. I have sent for him. If lam to be
met with objections, I shall make a formal applica
tion to the court for the ballot-boxes and papers for
substantial proof.
Mr. Brooke. I object to the holding over of any of
the defendants on any such grounds as stated by the
attorney for the prosecution. The Commonwealth
should have had the case ready; but, instead of this,
we are told that the ballot-boxes are to be obtained
for the purpose of bunting eviderree; this searching
for evidence is a thing I don't MO. I therefore ask
for the discharge of the defendants.
A pause of five minutes ensued, and then the si
lence was broken as follows :
Mr. Brooke. if the counsel for the Commonwealth
can prove by Mr. Doran that these defendants re•
fused admittance, then I say this Is good ground to
ask for a continuance of the case.
Mr. Simpson. I will prove it.
Mr. Brooke. Then let the case be continued.
The time for the next hearing, as agreed upon,
was at nine o'clock on next Monday morning. Bail
was received, and the parties retired.
STORE ROBBER TRAPPED.
A young man giving the name of William Cook,
hailing from the State of Ohio, was arraigned yes
terday morning on the charge of robbing a store on
Second street, above Race, at an early hour yester
day morning. - - Officer Ben. Shourds, while patrol
ling his beat, observed that the night light was
darkened In the store. Upon making a closer in
vestigation he observed that an umbrella had been
placed over the hole, but under one corner, made by
the folds he had a pretty clear view of the interior.
He watched the thief for nearly two hours. The
fellow took his own time in selecting goods. Choice
articles he wrapped around his body ; and then pat
on any number of shirts ; then crammed his pock
ets with divers things, mostly handsome cravats,
with breastpins.
At first, the fellow looked long, lean and lank, as
a half starved rebel, but sow with his outfit he was
a sort of Daniel Lambert looking kind of a fellow,/
or Shakspeare's Falstaff. He had entered the store
through a transom sash, but his artificial rotundity
would not permit a ready egress through the same
aperture. Besides this the front door was fastened
on the outside by means of a padlock. His , only
means of egress was through the rear. Officer
Shourds watched his movements like a cat watch
ing a mouse, and finally confronted the thief on the
public highway.
Ollicial
salutation was extended, and it was not
long before the despoiler of the store was locked up
in the station-house. lie had on his person $275
worth of stolen goods, and s7sln money. He was
committed to take his trial.
[Before Mr. Alderman Baffler.)
_ RETAINING BOUNTY MONEY.
.A man named Callahan was arraigned at the
Central Station yesterday afternoon on the charge
of receiving bounty-money, and withholding the
same. The ovidenoe developed the fact that a man
named Henry McFadden recently enlisted In the
United States navy, - under the name of Henry Ran
dolph Lewis. He testified that he enlisted at the
rendezvous on Front street, below Spruce, on the 2d
inst.; he did not know who enlisted him. The wit
ness gave a power of attorney to defendant to draw
the money, with the understanding that it should
be given to the wife of the enlisted man;
Mrs. McFadden testified that she had not re•
celved any money from the defendant; he offered
her one hundred dollars, which she declined, unless
he gave her the whole amount ; he replied that' he
would give the balance when it suited him.
The defendant was required to enter bail In the
sum of $2,000 to await a further hearing.
LARCENY OF A WATCH
Frank McNathee was arraigned yesterday after
noon, on the charge of stealing a watch valued at
twelve'dollars, the property of John O'Hara. The
evidence elicited the fact that Mr. O'Hara's brother
had the watch ; he went to a tavern took a Beat in W
a rocking.chair, and fell asleep. When he awoke
he missed his watch. 'Thirtimepiece was found in
the possession of Mr. J. Fox, the keeper of a coal
)and in the upper part of the city. Hein turn said
he received it from McNamee for a tort of coal.
McNamee was arrested, and at first denied all
knowledge of the affair, that he had never seen the
watch. He subsequently- admitted that lie pur
chased it for the sum of nine dollars. The case
went over for another hearing.

ty after, as was also the policy of insurance upon
the property, regularly transferred by Ridgway's
executors to him.
Dr. Leon, the plaintiff, alleged that he loaned
Colonel Lee i 154,000 with which to pay off the mort
gage, taking as security therefor 'au assignment of
