ELLIS LEWIS.—The last number of he Printer, an excellent monthly periodi cal published in the City of New York, contains interesting extracts of "'Typo graphical Reminiscences" of the New York Typographical Society, written by Mr. Charles McDevitt, an old member, from which we extract the following sketch of former distinguished and esteemed fellow citizen, lion. Ellis Lewis, ex-Chief Justice of [lie Suprem6 Court of PennsyAnia. It will be read with much interest by his many friends: Judge Lewis became a member of the New York Typographical Society in the Year 1817, on the nomination of the late Thomas <•Snowden. Although separated from it by distance, he fondly clings to the pleasurable-associations of his youth. lle visited the Society some years ago, at one of our annual gatherings of the craft from all quarters of the Union, after an absence of thirty years. Although he met but few of his former associates, yet it was like the return of a first love to the object of his youthful devotion. Mr. Lewis was a com positor for some time on the " old" New York Courier, under Barent Gardenier, and afterward continued in the office of the New York Dail Advertiser, under Dwight & Walker. Ile was employed in the same offices with our late, lamented brother, Gen. Morris, Samuel Woodworth, oneof the Harpers, and many others of the oldschool. On leaving this city he returned to Pennsyl yania, edited a newspaper for a time, studi ed the legal profession, was elected to the Legislature, afterwards taken into Gov. Wolfe's Cabinet as Attorney-General ; then appointed Judge of the Eighth Judicial Dis trict, and a few years subsequently to the Second Judicial District, composed of Lan caster county, which is as populous as some of our small states. He pursued a life of unremitting industry and study, and, by improving, hours which many others devoted to amusement and recreation, he was enabled to produce his celebrated work on the "Criminal Law of the United States," and to do Ins share as one of the editors of the A Ineriean Law Journal. A number of years ago, when the best talent of our country was called into requisition to estab lish a system of Common Schools, Thad deus Stevens, a distinguished lawyer, made a masterly speech in the Pennsylvania Legislature in favor of education. Judge Lewis was then zealously engaged in pro moting the same cause, by delivering liter ary and scientific lectures. At this time a poem in favor of education made its ap pearance. The Judge made inquiry con cerning the author, who proved to be Lydia Jane Pierson, who had just then published her " Forest Leaves." He ascertained that the lady had been at one time in good cir cumstances, but owing to the illness of ner husband, and a sad train of misfortunes, the fair authoress was without a home, and in a state of great pecuniary end larrass ment. Mr. Stevens was then a rich bache lor. Judge Lewis met hint in the I louse of Representatives, and suggested the pro priety of raising something for the relief of so much talent. Mr. Stevens immediately authorized the Judge to purchase a suitable farm, such as the lady herself might select, without any limit to the price. The lady was overwhelmned with astonishment when she received a letter from Judge Lewis, who was only known to her by reputation, apprising her of his commis sion. She made the selection, and the Judge made the purchase, drew on Mr. Stevens for the money, and forwarded the deed, drawn in favor of Lydia Jane Pierson, her heirs and [assigns, forever. From this se • eluded retreat, situated in one of the north ern counties of Pennsylvania, she sent forth poems which never ilia to delight all who take pleasure in the reminiscences of rural scenery and of by-gone years. A short time ago Judge Lewis made a tour of observation through England, France, and Germany, during which he increased his knowledge and enlarged his mind by a careful study of the manners, customs and political systems of the Euro pean communities. He returned refreshed mentally and physically, and is now enjoy ing the Indian Summer of his days. A few years since I received a private letter from him, and I hope the present occasion may be considered an excuse for making a portion of it public. Here what the kind-hearted Judge says: "In the changes which I have experienced, my mind always looks back to the days of my youth, spent among the intelligent and noble-hearted members of the New York Typographical Society in New York. I have a diploma as doctor of medicine from the Philadelphia College of Medicine, and and another front the Transylvania Uni versity, at Lexington, Ky., as doctor of — laws, but the certificate of membership of the New York Typographical Society is pressed with more affectionate fondness to my heart than all the other honors I have ever received." THE TAX ON SEGARS AND TOBACCO.—The following is the rate of tax placed upon se gars and tobacco by the amended Internal Revenife' Bill: "On snuff, manufactured of tobacco or any substitute for tobacco, ground dry or damp, pickled, scented, or otherwise, of all descriptions, when prepared for use, forty cents per pound. "On cavendish, plug, twist, and all other kinds of manufactured tobacco, not herein otherwise provided for, forty cents per pound. " On tobacco twisted by band, or reduced from leaf into a condition to be consumed, without the use of any machine or instru ment, and without being pressed, sweeten ed, or otherwise prepared, thirty cents per pound. "On fine cut chewing tobacco, whether manufactured with the stems in or not, or however sold, whether loose, in bulk, or in rolls, packages, papers, wrappers, or boxes, forty cents per pound. "On smoking tobacco of all kinds, and imitations thereof, not otherwise herein provided For, thirty-five cents per"pound. "On smoking tobacco made exclusively of stems, and so sold, fifteen cents per pound. "On cigarettes made of tobacco, inclosed in a paper wrapper, and put up in packages containing not more than twenty-five ci garettes, and valued at not more than five dollars per hundred, packages, live cents per package. "On all cigars, cheroots and cigarettes, made wholly of tobacco, or of any substitute therefor,ten dollars per thousand. cigars ; by inserting in the paragraph relating to cigars, after the words imprisonment not exceed ing thirty days," the words, "And any per son furnished with such permit may apply to the assistant assessor or inspector of the district to have any cigars of their own manufacture counted; and on receiv ing a certificate of the number, for which such fee as may be prescribed by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue shall he paid by the owner thereof, may sell and deliver such .cigars to any pur _chaser, in the presence of said assistant as sessor or inspector, in bulk or unpakked, without payment of the duty. A copy of the certificate shall be retained by the as sistant assessor, or by the inspector, who shall return the same to the assistant asses sor of the district. The purchaser shall pack such cigars in boxes, and have the same inspected and marked or stamped according to the provisions of this act, and shall Make a return of the same as inspect ed to the assistant assessor of the district, and unless removed to a bonded warehouse shall pay the duties on such cigars within five days after purchasing them to the collec tor of the district wherein they were manu factured, and before the same have been re moved from the store or building of such purchasti, or from his possession ; and any such purchaser who shall neglect for more than rive days to pack and have such cigars duly inspected, and pay the duties thereon according to this act, or who shall purchase any cigars from -any person not holding such permit, the duties thereon not having been paid, shall be deemed guilty of a mis demeanor, and be fined not exceeding five hundred dollars, and be imprisoned not ex ceeding six months, at the discretion of the court, and the cigars shall be forfeited and sold, one-fourth ler the benefit of the infor mer'one-fourth for the officer who seized or had them condemned, and. one-halfshall paid to the Government." A PRINTER'S MATRIMONIAL ADVEN TORR.—The Philadelphia Daily News has the following " good one" on the matrimo nial adventures of a " typo" of the "City of Brotherly Love" : Advertising for a wife has become a pop ular and dangerous amusement. It is one of the adventures that ends like George Christy's experiment with the tempered horse-shoe—in badly burned fingers. Oc casionally, however, it ends in real hyme neal union. A month ago a well-known Philadelphia typo inserted a modest four 'lite personal in a daily journal. As the .tice enumerated certain very " solid" at tractions on the part of the candidate, it was responded to from far and near, and by about a hundred bidders. Some of the let ters were decidedly spicy. We were per mitted to peruse the tender epistles, but supposed the young typo was only in fun, and had no serious intentions of " setting up" a matrimonial "take"unless it should be " double leaded" and otherwise "fat." It seems, however, that the follower of Faust was not so stony-hearted as we sup posed, and that in his singular "chase" after a neatly-made-up" form he actually found a "copy" that suited him. The affair had not come to a "head," but he had re ceived several " proofs that his sighs were not considered as " dead matter." On Fri day night the enamored typo left his com rades at work in the news-room, and told them he would be back in a short time. He proceeded to the residence of his enslaver, where a number of young people were col lected, and the time passed oft quite pleas antly. When he arose to return to the office some one jocularly proposed that lots should lie drawn to decide whether he should go to work or get married. lie agreed to this, and the tates declared that he should be married. This brought matters to a crisis, and the result was that in half an hour he was transibrmed from a roving bachelor into a gay and festive husband. Taint - re ur ItEsiwcz.—At a meeting of the Gmthean Literary Society, held March 11, 1565, the following preamble and reso lutions were unanimously adopted: WiiEnexs, It bath pleased I qvine Provi dence to remove from among us our es teemed and well-beloved brother and fel low Gwthean, David Albert, M. 1).; and Wit ER EAS, Our brother, during his brief career in life, by his gentlemanly deport ment, his Christian bearing, and by the lively interest he manifested for the welfare of society, has endeared himself to his asso ciates and the community at large; there fore be it 1 eel 'l, Ilia in his early death we rec , ,gniz, the uncertainty of human life, and acknowledge it another warning to the living„ that they too must soon pass away. ilcsohwei, 'Mitt, as a society, we cheerfully bear testimony of his talents and integrity as a physician ; his virtues and usefulness as a citizen, anti the ability and fidelity with which he discharged his duties in the position he tilled during the period of his short lifi!.

Downey, of this city, graduated with honor at the Annual Commencement of the Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, on Friday last. The subject of Mr. Barr's Thesis was "Puer peral Convulsions," and that of Mr. Dow ney, "Gunshot Wounds." Both these young gentlemen read medicine with Br. 11. E. Carpenter, and both have been in the military service--Mr. Barr as a surgeon in one of the regiments of the Army of the Potomac, and Mr. Downey as a Brigade Surgeon in the Army of the Cumberland. Mr. George 1.. Boinl,erger, of this city, also graduated witli honor at the Annual Commencement of the IThiversity of Phila deldhia, on Saturday. The subject of his Thesis was Lithotomy. Mr. 13. has also been in the military service. Ile read medicine with Dr. John L. Atlee, Jr., and is a young gentlelnan of much promise. DESPERATE LEA P, AND AN UNSUCCESS FUL ATTEMPT ro ESCAPE..—On Saturday morning Provost Marshal Stevens sent to Camp Cadwalader, Philadelphia, seventeen "bounty- . junipers," under special guard, consisting of Police Oilicers Huber, Baker, Shroad, and Messrs. Thomas Dinan, Fred erick Heizelman and John C. I arden.— Twelve of the seventeen were handcuffed, and five were not. When the train had ar rived within half a mile of West Philadel phia, and proceeding at the rate of thirty miles an hour, one of the number who was not handcuffed, made a desperate leap through one of the windows, and rolled down an embankment of 15 feet. He got up, and it is supposed was not hurt in the least, for on rising he made a most polite bow to the astonished officers and passen gers, and left for parts unknown. After the prisoners had arrived in Phila delphia, and were proceeding along Girard Avenue, another one attempted to escape from Officer Shroad, by suddenly starting across the street, and running oil at full speed. Officer S. immediately drew his pistol and tired, wounding him in the ankle, and stopping his further progress.

ASSA T. 7 ;,T .A.ND BATT ERA", —Oll Wednes day evening last, as Mr. Wm. A. Seltzer, of Womelsdorf, Berks county, and at pres ent a studentLof Franklin and Marshall College, this city, accompanied by two or three fellow students, was walking down Chestnut street, they were assaulted by a party of boys standing on the corner of Mulberry and Chestnut streets, with a vol ley of stones and mud. Mr. S. turned around to see W here the ,issault came from, when the largest boy of the party, named Fred. Diffenbach, ran into the street, and picking up a stone, immediately assaulted Mr. S., striking hint with the stone on the nose, and breaking the bone of the same. Complaint was made by Mr. S. at the Mayor's office, when Diffenbach was ar rested. A hearing took place on Saturday morning before the Mayor, and the lad was held to bail in $lOO for his appearance at court. WHY THREAD Is DEAR.—In the good old times, before the days of prohibitory tariffs, the price of spool cotton was as low in this country as in England. "Coats" were sold at four cents a spool. Notwithstanding the advance in cotton, the retail price in Eng land is still two pence (2d.) a_spool for the best threads for only four cenUln American coin. Making due allowaiA for therise in exchange, a spool of thread would not cost us more than nine cents, if it were not for the excessive tariff The other six cents which we pay when we give fifteen for an American thread, is the profit of our spin ners. .JOHN J. COCHRAN, Esq., has been re-ap pointed and confirmed as Postmaster of this city. I .Ve congratulate our old editorial brother on his good luck. He his made a courteous and efficient officer, and his ap pointment for a second time shows that he has performed his duties satisfactorily to "the powers that be,- GO IN, LEMONS!—At a vendue recently held in Lehigh county a lemon tree was sold for $l4. It was a regular and prolific bearer, and at the time had near three hun dred lemons on it, of various sizes, in all stages of maturity. It presented a most beautiful appearance, and had been cultur ed by the same family for over forty years. A RIISECER.-A calf only sixteen weeks old was slaughtered by Owen Horne, of Delaware county, a few days ago, which, when dresse&weighed 330 pounds—and one hind quarter was sold for $4O. They claim to be very loyal down there ; but the above does not indicate any devotion to the com mon veal. LeimearrEn HORSE Mermsr—Monday, March 13, 1865.

This proportional decrease was doubtless caused by the decrease of exports in 1864. Drawing it Very Mild Forney and Andy Johnson are great cronies, and the immaculate John thus smooths over the late disgraceful de bauch of his friend. Says the Wash ington Chronicle of Saturday : " Vice President Johnson appeared in the Senate yesterday, in company with his friend, the Hon. Preston King, of New York, who is staying with him at the residence of our hospitable fel low-citizen, Francis P. Blair, Sr. His health is entirely restored. He was as cheerful as any man could be after having recovered from so severe an in disposition. We have no doubt he will fully justify the warmest anticipations of his countrymen. During his stay in the Vice President's room a large num ber of Senators called to pay their respects, and we observed with much satisfaction that they were pleased to see him well." We are glad to be able to agree with the Express for once. It says : "We suppose the plain English of that means that the Vice President has got sober." Military Trial and Conviction of a The editor of the Warren county, Ohio, paper, has just been tried by court mar tial and sentenced to imprisonment for copying some time ago several articles from the New York Metropolitan Re cord. The New York Gazette states the charges and the finding of the Court as follows : " He was found guilty of the first charge and the specifications under it, viz : Discouraging volunteer enlist ments,' by the publication of three news paper articles. Of the second charge Counseling resistance to the draft,' not guilty. His sentence is six months im prisonment, at hard labor, at such place as the commanding general may direct. Gen. Hooker has named Fort Delaware as the place, and thence Mr. Flanagan will be escorted immediately."

H'DQR'S, MILITARY DIY. OF THE MISS'I, IN Tax, FIELD, Feb. 24. Lieutenant-General Wade Hampton, Com- mending Cavalry Forces, C. S. A.: GENERAL: It is officially reported to me that our foraging parties are mur dered after capture and labelled, "death to all foragers." Oneinstance'.of a lieu tenant and seven men, near Chester field, and another of twenty " near a ra vine, eighty rods from the main road," about three miles from Feasterville. I have ordered a similar number of pris oners in our hands to be disposed of in a like manner. I hold about one thousand prisoners captured in various ways, and can stand it as long as you ; but I hardly think these murders are committed with your knowledge; and would suggest that you give notice to the people at large that every life taken by them simply results in the death of one of your Con federates. Of course you cannot question my right to forage on the country. It is a war right as old as history. The man ner of exercising it varies with circum stances, and if the civil authorities will supply my requisitions I will forbid all foraging. But I find no civil authori ties who can respond to calls for forage or provisions, and therefore must collect directly of the people. I have no doubt this is the occasion of much misbeha vior on the part of our men; but I can not permit an enemy to judge or pun ish with wholesale murder. Personally I regret the bitter feelings engendered by this war ; but they were to be expected, and I simply allege that those who struck the first blow and made war inevitable ought not in fair ness to reproach us for the natural con sequence. I merely assert our war right to forage, and my resolve to pro tect my foragers to the extent of life for life. 1 am, with respect, your obedient servant, W. T. SHERMAN, Major-General U. S. A. GENERAL HAMPTON'S REPLY. HEADQUARTERS IN THE FIELD, 1 February 27th, 186.5. Major (General W. ,Sherman, U. 8. Army: General—Your communication of the 24th inst., reached me to-day. In it you state that it has been officially re ported that your foraging parties were " murdered" after capture, and you go on to say that you had " ordered a similar number of prisoners in your hands to be disposed of in like manner." That is to say, you have ordered a num ber of Confederate soldiers to be " mur dered." You characterize your order in proper terms, for the public voice, even in your own country, where it seldom dares to express itself in vindication of truth, honor or justice, will surely agree with you in pronouncing you guilty of mur der, if your order is carried out. Before dismissing this portion of your letter, I beg to assure you for every soldier of mine " murdered" by you I shall have executed at once two of yours, giving, in all cases, preference to any officers who may be in my hands. In reference to the statement you make regarding the death of your foragers, 1 have only to say that I know nothing of it; that no orders given by me authorize the killing of prisoners after capture, and that I do not believe that my men killed any of yours, except under circumstances in which it was perfectly legitimate and proper they should kill them.

To check this inhuman system, which is justly execrated by every civilized nation, I have directed my men to shoot down all your men who are caught burning houses. This order shall re main in force as long as you disgrace the profession of arms by allowing your men to destroy private dwellings. You say that I cannot of course ques tion your right to forage on the country. "Itis a right as old as history." Ido not,sir,question this right. But there is a right older even than this, and one more inalienable—the right that every man has to defend his home and to pro tect those who are dependent upon him; and from my heart I wish that every old man and boy in my country who can fire a gun, would shoot down, as he would a wild beast, the men who are desolating their land, burning their houses and insulting their women. You are particular in defining and claiming " war rights." May I ask if you enumerate among them the right to fire upon a defenceless city without notice, to burn that city to the ground after it had been surrendered by the authorities, who claimed, though in vain, that protection which is always accorded in civilized warfare to non combatants ; to fire the dwelling houses of citizens after robbing them, and to perpetrate even darker crimes than these—crimes too dark to be mentioned. 527,715,13.5 1)4,31, 11 ) 1 075 013 You have permitted, if you have not ordered, the commission of these offen ses against humanity and the rules of war. You fired into the city of Colum bia without a word of warning. After its surrender by the Major who demanded protection to private proper ty, you laid the whole city in ashes leaving amid its ruins thousands of old men and helpless women and children, who are likely to perish of starvation and exposure. Your line of march can be traced by the lurid light of burning houses, and in more than one household there is an agony far more bitter than that of death. 11=1 1, 40 1 5 The Indian scalped his victim re gardless of sex or age, but with all his barbarity he always respected the per sons of his female captives. Your sol diers, more savage than the Indian, in sult those whose natural. protectors are absent. In conclusion, I have only to request that whenever you have any of my men " disposed of," or " murdered," tor the terms appear to be synonymous with you, you will let me hear of it, in order that I may know whataction to take in the matter. In the meantime I shall hold fifty-six of your men as hostages for those whom you have ordered to be executed. lam yours, Sc., Wade Hampton Thanked for his Reply [From the Richmond Sentinel, ➢larch 9.] The correspondence between Geus. Sherman and Hampton in to-day's pa per will arouse the manliness of every one who reads it. Gen. Hampton will receive the thanks of every Confederate for his spirited and appropriate answer to the Yankee brute. This correspondence reveals the fate of the beautiful city of Columbia. Fired into without warning,•and laid in ashes after surrender. Sherman has earned for himself the hate of mankind, and the treatment clue to a wild beast. His barbarity will have an effect opposite to that which he designed, and will arouse even the old men and boys to shoot down him and his so-called-for agers at every opportunity. In the Senate, Mr. - Wigan submitted the following joint resolution, which was agreed to: Resolved, By the Congress of the Con federate States of America, That the thanks of Congress and the whole country are due, and are hereby ten dered, to Lieut.-Gen. Wade Hampton, for his manly letter of Feb. 27, 1865, addressed to Gen. W. T. Sherman ; and that, in the opinion of Congress, the Executive Department should sustain Gen. Hampton in carrying out the policy indicated in his letter. The Changes in the Interior Depart It has been determined by the Presi dent to place ex-Senator Morton S. Wilkinson, of Minnesota, at the head of the Indian bureau as the successor of Mr. Dole. The change will take place early this week. The Secretary of the Interior will probably also assume the duties of his position at an earlier date than was anticipated. The cause as signed for hastening these changes is the maladministration of Indian affairs. All sorts of rumors are afloat with refer ence to corrupt transactions connected with the purchase of goods for distribu tion among the various Indian tribes, and the names of the Secretary and Com missioner of Indian Affairs are freely used as being interested in this matter as well as in that of the scrip of the Fox.
