DEATH OF. HENRY S. HAGRAW.—CoI.
Henry S. Magraw diedin Washington dtY,
on Friday morning last, at 8i o'clock. The
news of his death has caused a feeling of
profound sorrow to prevail throughout
Lancaster, whose whole population may be
counted among his friends.
A special despatch to the Press of Satur
day gives the following particulars of the
attack which has resulted in Mr. Magra;v's
death :
Hon. Henry S. Magraw.—On Tuesday
evening, about six o'clock, while Hon.
Henry S. Magravv, formerly of Pennsyl
vania, now of Maryland, was walking along
Pennsylvania avenue with a friend, he was
taken 11l and stepped into an adjoining.
house for the purpose of obtaining relief.
Shortly after be was prostrated by. a severe
stroke of apoplexy, from which, it is feared,
be cannot recover. He has lain insensible
during the whole of to-day—being unable
to recognize his most intimate friends.
Word was immediately despatched to his
personal friend, Senator Cromwell, of
Maryland, who, in company with Honore
hie John L. Dawson, of Pennsylvania,
and others, culled for the purpose
of rendering assistance to the un
fortunate man. They telegraphed for
Mrs. Magruw, who arrived this morning,
and is now attending upon her husband.
Mr. Magraw had ibeen in Washington for
several days; and although not looking very
well, appeared to be in excellent spirits.
He has been attended by Doctors Reilly,
Miller, Johnson, and Hull, and they have
very little hope. Mr. Magraw, has filled a
large place in public affairs, having been
three years Treasurer of the State of Penn
sylvania, and at the time ho was struck
down was deeply interested in several im
portant enterprises. He purchased and
lived upon his father's estate, near Port
Depoalt, Maryland, several years ago, and
ut the lust election was chosen a member of
the House of Delegates of that State. He
had been exceedingly fortunate in busi•
11014 N, and looked forward to the enjoyment
of many years of life. He Is about iifty
three years of age, Within a short period
he has lost two of his brothers, Hobert and
NN'llifurn, both haying died very suddenly.
Ile V 4 11 gentleman of culture and education,
and great energy and determination of

E LATE ItEmoviki.s.—The• Eraminer,
speaking of the removals made by the
County Commissioners, says:
Mr. liburman, the lute Clerk, is well and
favorably known to the people of the whole
county. He had tilled the office for a period
of over twenty-six years—having been first
elected In January 11141, and annually every
year thereafter. He was a prompt, faithful
and obliging officer, and his removal, at
this time, has caused considerable feeling
throughout the county.
The removal of Captain Baer, from the
Solicitorship, hue caused not a little specu
lation among people not politicians. Con
fessedly one of the best and ablest legal
advisers the county has ever had, the failure
of the Commissioners to re-elect him, has
provoked anything but kind or compli
mentary milk:bun.

FLICIIIT Or A ROCKET.-At the carnival
at the Philadelphia Skating Park, last Fri
day evening, a rocket was set off. It came
across thiPSchuylkill and struck upon the
slate roof of the house of Mr. McDermott,
2418 Pine street. It passed through the
roof into the third story room, knocked a
piece off the bureau, and came very near
striking a little girl who was saying her
prayers at the time. The stick is eight feet
long and an inch anda quarter in diameter.
The house belongs to Mr. Jacob Long of

HORTIOULITTAL,—The regllle,r,MOlltkaA
meeting of the LancasieiCountyHortioull i
tuna Society, which was held at the Athe-
Mum Rooms on the 4th inst., proved itself
one of the moat interesting that has yet as
sembled, and augured well for the future
success of the organization. The meeting
opened with a decided improvement in the
attendance of members, and after the usual
reading and adoption of the minutes of the
last meeting, a large number of gentlemen
of the highest character in the county were
proposed by .their friends' and elected as
members, many of whom were present
signed the Constitution, and participated
in the business of the society.
The following named gentlemen were
elected: Dr. E. B. Herr, Benjamin ten
dig, Harvey Lightner, J. B. Kevinski, H.
L. Zahm, Brenneman U. Shuman, Andrew
M. Frantz, Esq , Peter Bailey, W. W.
Brown, Esq., Davis L. Brown, Esq., Chris
tian B. Herr, Henry B. Reist. J. R. Hoffer,
the editor Of the Mount Joy Herald, was
elected an honorary member of the society.
Prof. S. S. Rathvon entertained the so
ciety in his usual agreeable manner by
reading an admirable essay on the relations
existing between ornithology and onto.
mology, two topics with which Mr. Rath
von is compared with any other gentleman
of this section par excellence well acquaint
ed. Upon the subject of entomology, or
any of the corelativo branches, the views of
Mr. Rathvon can be regarded as reliable to
the fruit-grower; and it is not too much to
say that ho justly deserves what he has ac
quired abroad—the reputation of being the
Entomological Nestor of Pennsylvania.
Convinced Mille utility of disseminating cor
root information on the subject of Entomo
logy, the society asked of hint a copy of his
essay for publication. Some views in this
essay elicited a few practical remarks from
Casper Hiller, H. M. Engle, and 'other
practical and scientific fruit-growers.
• A matter of great importance—thatof the
distribution of choice varieties of fruit,—
was discussed; and it was determined that,
at the March and April meetings of the
Society, a number of gentlemen who have
extensive collections of fruit trees (apples,
peers, peachlrees, ilz.c.) would come prepared
to furnish grafts to any who might desire to
increase their collection of fruits, and in
this way enlarge the usefulness of the So•
clay. At one of these meetings an expert
will give instru lions in the art of grafting
fruit trees, and will practically illustrate in
the presence of the Society the manner In
Which this brunch of Horticulture is per
formed. Although In the midst of Whiter
there was a respectable exhibition of fruit,
viz : Apples and Pours. Casper 1111101., the
Prince of Lancaster Nursery Men, had on

eties : The Lady Apple. Pittsburg Pipln,

that our genial chairman mesenttM to the
Society a bottle of what he called Cider, but
which Wile pronounced by the inembers

disappeared its good qualities could not be
doubted. Indeed the Lancaster County
Horticultural Society is rapidly becoming
one of the fixed institutions of our county,
and, as all its !numbers can !arm, inifCh

At the next meeting of the Society, Casper
Hiller will read an essay upon an Horticul

promise themselves that they will hear
something or practical utility. Thu mubfeet,

M. E. Church, resulting vary favorably.
The church is crowded every night and
groat interest is manifested, not only by
those connected with the congregation, but
among outsiders and backsliders.
Sales of Stocks.—On Saturday evening last
A. Kauffman, Esq., purchased 50 shares
of First National Bank Stock, at 006 per
share, at public sale,
At the same time, W. G. Case purchased
8 shares of Columbia Water Stock at $19.50
per share, and 5 shares ut $16.72 per share.
A, 33runer, Jr., also purchased 5 shares at

Both of the above Institutions Illust be
in a flourishing condition. The First Na
tional Stock never gbh] above par, and us In
this case, immediately after a dividend was
declared, below par. We are glad to notice
such an evidence of prosperity.
The Water Company Stock, at the above
sale, nearly doubled its par value. This is
also good evidence that it is a paying con
cern, although no dividends are publicly
declared.
Our Chief burgess.—From present up•
poarances, Jacob Auwerter, our newly
elected Chief Burgess, is the right man in
the right place. He has already commenced
several suits for violations of the charter
and ordinances, and the prospects are that
law-breakers in future will be cmnpelled to
face the music and answer at the bar ofjus
tit* for their unlawful deeds.
Pocket Picked.—We understand that a
Mrs. Hogendobler had her pocket picked
on Friday evening last, while attending
services in the M. E. Church. We think
the person that did the deed had not the
fear of the Lord sufficiently impressed on
his or her mind, or else went In on the con
viction, the better the place, the better the
deed. she lost about twelve dollars,
Sen.vation.—On Monday afternoon, Front
street was the scene of " almost a tragedy:"
It appears that a Constable of York arrived
in this place id quest of an "American citi
zen of African descent" by the name. of
Isaac Davis. The "gemman" was soon
found and in company with the Constable
proceeded to the Bellevue llouse, and just
as they were to enter the Hotel, Davis
thought it would be the best policy to travel.
He made a leap and started down Front
street, with the Constable In full pursuit.
A " navy" was brought into requisition ;
; one shot was tired; "nig" would not stop;
Constable fell down; nigger turned the
corner at Locust, and was lost to "sight
and memory dear" of the Constable ; "

fortune. Afterwards ho secured the servi

bird was soon overhauled, and his arms
pinoned behind his back and a free sleigh
ride furnished him to York. The Consta
ble informed us that he was arrested for
obtaining goods under false pretences.

none stood any chance unless they could
perform the war dance of the Winnebago
tribe. The last crumbhas been giveu to those
who.were selected by Cameron, and Geary
Is no longer dogged by the greedy crew.
There has been a marked difference in the
style of living of some of the colons since
the Senatorial election. Several who came
here determined to live economically and
who awl{ lodgings akelleap boarding houses,
have moved into luxurious apartments at
the Loctnel and now dine and wine sump
tuously every day. It is more than sus
pected that they have found legislutlou u
profitable business.
To all appearances this promises not to bo
a proiltablosession for the lobby thieves and
mercenary members. The " diveys" up to
this time have been wonderful small,except
on the Senatorial question, find the conse
quence is that the legislative market is much
depressed, and prices rouge very low.
The deteirminutlon of the Pennsylvania
Central Railroad to cut down dead heads to
the narrowest possible margin has caused
some grumbling among new members.
Some of them promised to secure passes for
friends, and now find themselves utterly
unable to do so. Some of the old members
of the House and Senate are glad to bo rid
of the bore. The system was a wrong one
from the beginning, and the public will be
glad to know that the managers of the road
have determined to out it up by the roots.
Hundreds of men have heretofore held an
nual passes, who were not entitled to any
such privilege. The Directors of the road
have not begun the reform a bit too soon.
As I said, some of the new members would
like to secure pusses for friends. Now and
then the subject is discussed. I heard one
declare, rather jocularly, to be sure, that if
the road did not "come down" he would
introduce a bill compelling the company to
fence in the line. The proposition was re
garded us a brilliant suggestion, but I
rather guess it will not pass into a law.
Large us the Radical majority is lu both
houses, the Democrats are more than a
match for their opponents in talent. This
bus been proven whenever there has beat
room for display in debate. Somehow the
average of ability in the Radical ranks is
lower this session than usual. They have
only a single man of marked strength in
the Senate, Mr. Landon, of Bradford. In
the House Mr. Quay, of Beaver, is their best
man, and there are at least half a dozen
Democrats there who are his superior in
every respect.
To-day the debate was concluded in the
Senate on the unmanly resolution of the
Radicals protesting against the confirma
tion by the United States Senate of Edgar
Cowan an Minister to Austria. After a short,
earnest and manly protest against the reso
lution by Senator Burnett, from Alonrov,

This poetical outburst, delivered as it was
In Mr. Fisher's most sensational style,
brought dowu the house. The Democrats
roared and the Radicals could not help
chiming In. This reception of what he re
garded as sublime, caused your Senator to
subside without the utterance of another
word.
General MeA. land ilh/414, of Philadelphia, and
Senator Soaright, of Fayette, took occasion
to administer a sharp rebuke to the toplofti
oal representative from Lancaster. Wu
could see him writhe older the keen sar
casm of his op onents, which was couched
In gentleman! , language. Senator Davis,
of Berks, made a short and most excellent
speech, In which he doalt the Radicals some
very severe blows. A speech from a weak
and pompous diameter, who hulls from
Adams county, brought Senator Wallace to
his feet, Mr. Wallace is rightly recognized
as the leader on the Democratic side of the
Senate. ills speech was short, but exceed
ingly well conceived,
Ile told the Radicals that they had re
ceived the Government from the hands of
the Democrats at a time when there was
peam, prosperity and freedom from debt;
that after precipitating the most terrible
civil war, and causing the whole land to
run red with blood, they had as yet failed
to bring back peace to the country; that
they had plunged the nation into debt and
burthened the people with the most op
pressive taxation on the plea of preserving
the Union, and yet, with all their pretences,
they stood before the world In an attitude
of hostility to the Union. He demanded to
know what their policy was, declared they
had none, and asserted boldlyi that all the
talk which ho had heard on the opposite
side of the Senate only convinced him that
the dominant party was dreaming of an
Utopian tiovernment,'V. Wel) should rest on
the shoulders of nogroes, while it afforded
unllinited political plunder to those in
power.
Mr. \Valium's speech brought Senator
Landon to Ids feet. Thla Radical gentleman

honestly, and acknowledged squarely that
he and his party were in favor of negro
suffrage and negro equality. He eulogized
Simon Cameron for declaring himself in
favor of striking the word white from the
Constitution of Pennsylvania, and declared
his belief that it would be done speedily.
With the speech of Senator Landon the de
bate closed, and the resolutions of censure
were passed by a strict party vote.
In the House a little affair occurred this
afternooff, showing how unscrupulous the
Radicals are, and how little to be trusted.
A few weeks since in the town of Highspire,
Dauphin county, a borough election was
held, and the whole Democratic ticket was
elected. The town had only been incorpor
ated into a borough a short time before.
The defeated Radicals have now appealed
to the legislature for the purpose of getting
the charter annulled. A bill was
brought up in the House this afternoon,
providing that anielectiou shall beheld next
month to determine whether Highspire
shall continue to be ranked in the catalogue
of boroughs; and if a majority of votes are
cast against continuing it ns a borough, then
any or the Democratic officers recently
elected, are to be lined and imprisoned if
they attempt to exercise any olftcial fluty.
That looks like partisan legislation, but
the most singular feature of the bill was
that it was couched in such terms as to allow
white men, woimn and negroes to vote. Mr.
Boyle, of Fayette, who has made his mark
as a leading man in the House, called at
tention to this singular generality and had
it amended. But for his watchfulness the
thing would have been snaked through as
it was, it being private calendar day.
My letter has strung out ,to an almost

Dead Man Eaten twllls.
A most shocking sight was presented in
the river in front of Cairo on the 21st. The
dead body of a man had become frozen fast
in the floating ice, and when it passed Cairo
there had gathered an immense flock of
sea gulls around the corpse, and they were
feeding off of It, and fighting over it. Some
were perched upon the body gorging them
selves as they tore the frozen tiesh from the
bones; others flapped around in the cold
air, and still others were hopping about on
the floating fields of ice, awaiting their turn
at the repast, The awful spectacle floated
by with the current of the river, and undis
turbed passed from view,
The Contraction that is Going On.
The financial editor of the Chicago
Republican writes as follows; " Capi
talists and bankers all over the country
are pursuing the same policy of con
traction which Secretary McCulloch
has inaugurated. So far as the banks
are concerned, this is a matter of neces
sity, and outside capitalists are governed
by the same policy. Of course, all this
reverts on trade and commerce; and in
the West, were the banking capital is
limited, the pressure is unusually severe.
At the same time the stocks of bread-
Btu& are much lighter than usual, and
that of provisions, though heavier than
last year, is not considered beyond the
capacity of the country. In this way,
the chief sufferers by the present stagna
tion in trade are the merchants and the
manufacturers. The farmers, as a gen
eral thing, are in easy circumstances,
but they are unwilling to sell their
government securities to pay their debts,
and collections are therefore slow, and
will probably continue - so till a better
financial policy is inaugurated. "

The Indian War—Three United States
Forts In a State of Soho.
The tbllowing is the substance of a letter
just received from an officer at Fort Phillip
Kearney to as gentlemen in this city:
The three post torts, Phil Kearney, Reno
and Smith, are in a state of siege. All the
Sioux Indians, including those who com
mitted the atrocities in Minnesota, are in
the neighborhood. The garrison of Fort
Reno consists of three cowponies of infan
try not full, and one piece of artillery.
Phil Kearney has four pieces of artillery
and five companies of infantry, one half ef
fective and a few mounted men. Fort
Smith has two pieces of artillery, two com
panies of infantry, and 28 mounted men—
amounting in the aggregate to 400 men; so
you can perceive that these posts are In
state of Beige. The mass of the Indians are
on the river about 50 miles from this post.
Our communication with Fort Smith Is
entirely cut off. Some 1,500 lodges of In
dians are located at that point, including
the Bluckfeet, the Cheyennes, and Arrapa
hoes, the whole number amounting to be
tween tour andffive thousand.
ThtSy are well mounted and armed. They
have several times attacked the wood trains,
and were upon one occasion badly whipped.
On Friday, Dec. 21, they made their ap
pearance in a small number, near the fort,
and challenged us to tight. (Jul. Carrington
shelled them, killing a pony, and driving
out thirty Indians from their covert. Capt.
and Brevet Col. Fitterman, Capt. Brown
and Lieutenant Drumond were ordered out
to protect the wood train, which had been
attacked. Capt. Fittermau commanded the
infantry, Lieut. Druunnond the cavalry,
numbering 27 men, and Capt. Brown some
mounted teamsters and citizens, the whole
force amounting to SI men. About 50 of
these were armed with Spencer Hiles and
the remainder with Springfield muskets.
The officers, instead of obeying orders, al
lowed themselves to be decoyed from the
position they had been ordered to take, and
consequently fell Into un ambush and were
Ali cruelly murdered. The writer, who is
on duty at Fort Kearney, was ordered by
Col. Carrington to proceed to a point five
miles off, and ascertain If the wood train
was safe and then join tho command. After
proceeding about three miles he found the
train safe, and then attempted to join Capt.
Fah - imam but it being impossible he im
mediately sent to the fort for reiffibroements.
Forty men, under u captain, were sent out
and we reached the scene of action just in
time to witness the murder the last vic
tim. The poor fellows who had thus been
wantonly murdered were found piled up in
a heap. About fifty of the bodies were
brought into the fort.
Lieut. Ames, with :10 soldiers from Fort
Sedgewick, overtook the Indians on tile
22d inst., and recaptured Code and Donald
son's cattib, on' Pole Creek. The Indians
were going southward, and were certainly
the Cheyennes, who were all reckoned at
peace. The Lieutenant and his command
were badly frost-bitten.
The Chicago Times says : That the public
mind Is not at rest concerning the deter
mination of the late Opera House drawing
is apparent on all hands. The dissatisfac
tion arises-froai the singular circumstances
of the sale of the Opera House by Mr. Lee
to Mr. Crosby, and the very low price
which the former is said to have demanded
and received for it.

44. Sehenek'n Seaweed Tonle
This medicine, invented by Dr. J. H. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, Ls intended to dissolve the food and
make It into chyme, the first proctyls of digestion. Hy
cleansing the stomach with lichenck's Mandrake
Pills, the Tonic soon restores the appetite, and food
that could not be eaten before using It will beeasily
digested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Schenck.'s Pub
monic Syrup unless the stomach and liver is made
healthy and the appetite restored, hence the Tonic
and Pills are required in nearly every case aeon
gumption. A half dozen bottles of the Seaweed Tunic
and three or four boxes of the Mandrake Pills will
cure any ordinary case of Dyspepsia.
Dr. Schenck makes professional visits In Hew York,
Boston, anti at his principal °dice in Philadelphia
every week. See daily papers of each place, or his
pamphlet on consumption for his days for visitation
Please observe, when pUrCLIBBiIIg, that the two like
!leases of the Doctor, one when In the last stage of Con
sumption, and the other as he now la In perfect health,
are on the Government stamps.

Sold by all druggists and dealers, price $1.50 per bob
