The counsel—Then we will send for the grand jury and let them state the facts. Judge—That cannot be done, for they are sworn to secrecy. The counsel said that if this action of the district attorney was unlawful, and yet it could not be proved, then the assertion that the grand jury ls the bulwark of our fiber. ties is all bosh. Judge—No grand juror, and no other persons, can be examined to prove what was said in that room.

From Washington WASITINGTON, Dec. 15.—The latest indi cations are that Caleb Cushing's mission will be found to have reference to the pead inn negotiations with the government of Colombia, about the concession of rights for a ship canal across the Isthmus of Da rien,similar to those recently obtained from Nicaragua. All that is, positively known of Cushing's doings before he left agree with this theory, and it is known that a short time ago our government was expect ing advices from South America on that subject. It is thought by some that an un expected hitchlin negotiations has induced Mr. Seward to employ Mr. Cushing. A bill is in course of preparation which will be introduced into the house in a few days, prohibiting banks from paying inter ests on their deposits. It is held that a large amount of money is kept out of cir culation, and in many sections of the coun try a stringency is produced by reason that the banks keep control of all the surplus currency, by paying small interests on the sums deposited with them. 'Fo prevent this is the object of the present bill. The Senate Committee on Foreign Rela tions at their meeting this morning decided to recommend the rejection of the nomina tion of H. A. Smythe as Minister to Russia. The Finance Committee took no action on the nomination of Alexander Cum. wings as Commissioner of Revenue. The Finance Committee spent two hours in hearing arguments of several delegations and numerous Congressmen on the bill in creasing the tariff on copper, and finally decided to lay it aside for further consider ation. The Retrenchment Committee will hold a meeting to-morrow to consider their re port, which is partly written and will be ready for presentation in a few days. It will chow some startling facts about the ad ministration of the revenue bureau and the relations of the Commissioner with the President and Secretary of the Treasury. Rollins hopes in a few days to make it appear that he was so hampered in matters of appointment as to cause serious injury to the revenue bureau. NASHVILLE, December 15. In Haywood county a few,days.since a desperado named James Johnson, the leader of a gang of horse thieves was hung, and the citizens were in hot pursuit of tile rest of the gang. In addition to the other crimes, the scoun drels outraged the persons of a number of negro girls in the neighborhood. About the same time and near the Same place a negro was lynched after attempting to commit a rape on an old lady. It is now pretty certain that the militia will not be called out. 'lhis arises in part from the desperate condition of the State finances. , The railroad omnibus bill, involving nearly $3,000,000 will come up to-day on its final reading, and it is expected there will be a lively time over it. Its passage is con sidered pretty certain, unless some extraor dinary influences are brought to bear against it.

The family knew nothing of the robbery until the next morning, they not haring heard the persons when they entered the house. The robbers entered by taking out a pane of glass in one of the windows of the lower story. They are doubtless the same parties who robbed the Misses Leeches a short time ago, an account of which has been publishe I. The citizens of the neighbor hood talk of offering a reward for the ap prehension.—lnquirer. POWDER EXPLOSION.—An almost serious accident occurred recently at the house of David Houston, in Bethania, this county. Mrs. Houston it seems had procured at the store an empty powder keg to use for hold ing lard. The keg had a quantity of papers and bits of bone in it which Mrs. H. con cluded would make excellent kindling for the oven, and she accordingly opened, the oven-door and threw in the contents of the keg. The oven had not been used from the day previous and no danger was apprehend. ed. Mrs. H., however, had barely got away when there was a loud explosion, throwing off the oven door, breaking several win dows in the house, and shaking quite a number of the adjoining houses. It is be lieved there was about one pound of powder in the keg.—lnquirer. BeROLARY.—The large Depot and Grain Warehouse belonging to John K. Malone, Penningtonville, Chester County, was entered on Wednesday night, the 9th inst., by cutting out the sash of a cellar window.

By the use of gunpowder, and n large iron bar taken from the railroad used by the section hands, they broke into the safe and took therefrom about $5O in currency and pen nies. There was some 3500 in greenbacks In the safe at the time, which sum they for tunately failed to discover. A. pair of buck skin gauntlet gloves, marked John W. Rambo was taken. Some Certificates of Bank and Oil Stock, and other papers, were scattered around, but none of them were stolen. The other articles in the office were not disturbed. No clue to the burglars has as yet been obtained. NARROW ESCAPE OF A COW.-012 Friday night the 3d inst., a cow belonging to Hen ry Kahler in the village of Millersville, this county, fell into a well on the property of Frederick Rummel who keeps an eating house near the toll gate. The yard gate be ing open the cow entered and passing over the covering of the well, it gave away and she fell into it. The well is some 20 feet deep, but the lower part being caved in she did not reach the bottom by some five or six feet. She was taken out in the morn ing, by the neighbors digging away a por tion of the bank of the well. The cow was not seriously injured. FIRE IN SALISBURY TOWNSHIP.—The dwelling house of li. B. Skiles, at Mount Vernon, in Salisbury township, was dam aged by fire on Friday, the 4th inst. The carpet on a room through which the stove pipe passes, caught fire, burning some fur niture and wearing apparel, and destroying the window frames and bed. The children were not put to bed that night as usual, in that room, or they too would have been burned. The fire was finally extinguished without further injury. FoxEs.—Quite a number of foxes have been caught in the neighborhood of Steel vine, on the Sadabury forge hills, within the past two weeks. One bad on its neck a brass collar with a name (Goodman) mark ed on it. Another had a leather strap on it. They are quite numerous and are oper ating extensively on the poultry in that vicinity. THE U. S. MARSHALSECIP.-COL E. D. Roath, of Marietta, this county, is said to be a candidate for U. S. Marshall for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Posey J. Nichols and Caleb W. Pierce, of Chester county, are also said to be candidates for the same •osition. A Hrrrnim Excuusrow.—Wm. H. Shivery of Bart, and Wm. Ingram of Coler ain, have just returned from a gunning ex cursion in Clearfield county. They shot a large deer weighing over one hundred pounds. They report seeing quite a nttm• ber of these animals, but found them too fleet of foot to be captured. AFFRAY AT IsrrESCOURSE.-,21. Man's Ear Shot Off.—The Inquirer says a shooting af fair took place at the village of Intercourse on Tuesday evening last, which bah crea ted some sensation in that usually quiet place, and came well nigh proving fatal to one of the parties concerned. It appears that one Charles Allison, a resident of the place, and who does not po , sess a super abundant amount of this world's goods, became a short time since the fortunate possessor of a mink, which be proceeded at once to put to death and to disposess of its akin. Having secured this valuable trophy, Charles, after due reflection and a careful examination of the markets, forwarded it to Lancaster by the hands of a stage driver who disposed of it to the enterprising firm of Shultz & Bro., and carefully remitted to Mr. Allison the price—s 4 in greenbacks. Charles, after receiving the amount and carefully counting it several times over, in order to be sure that his eyes did not de ceive him, decided,-upon due reflection to retire from active business, and proceeded to the village hotel and engaged boarding for the coming winter.. The news of Mr. Allison's good fortune soon became noised abroad through the village, and the natural disposition of the human heart to rejoice in toe good fortune of others, prompted some of them to call upon him at his hotel, on Tuesday evening last, for the purpose of tendering their con gratulations. His suspicions were, how ever, aroused by some remarks that tell from the lips of those present, that they were disposed to make light of his recent mercantile transaction in the fur business, and becoming excessively indignant, be drew a pistol from his pocket and attempt ed to fire it at one of the party. The pistol. however, only snapped and " Charley" visited his wrath upon it, by whirling it round through the air preparatory to mak ing another trial. While doing this the pistol possibly frightened at theconsequen ces of b•iog refractory, went off unexpect edly, blowing off the entire ear of Jacob D. Warfel who was standing near. The pistol was loaded with buck shot, and it seems very fortunate that no one was other wise injured. The wound, though painful, is fortunately not dangerous. Charles will not likely be again troubled with a " sur prise party," of the same persons. FROM ELIZARETITTOWN.—A corrogpond ent in Elizabethtown writes to us as iol lows :• - - Tuesday last, the Bth of December, being the feast of the Immaculate Conception, the patroness of the 'United States, we had the pleasure of attending Mass in St. Pe ter's Catholic Church, Elizabethtown, this county. The grand altar, and also the side I altars, on this occasion, were decorated very beautifully with flowers, evergreens and lights. Lights and flowers, lam told, are emb.ematic ot Faith and Purity,—lit emblems, certainly, around the altar of God. The interior of the church being re- I cently renovated, presents a very hand some and rich appearance. This is one of ! oldest churches in Lancaster county, being built on lot No. 1, in Elizabethtown. It was enlarged in 1799, and renovated sever al times since For many years this church was attended from Lancaster by the Rev. Father Keenan, who even yet lives to see Gloss whom he baptized, as children now grown grey with age. Close by, in the cemetery, ono can read the names of some old pioneers of Lancaster county, and not a few tombs evince that their tenants were soldiers of the Revolutionary War. One mile eastward from Elizabethtown stands the ruins of an old church, where the Catholics of the upper end of Lancaster county assembid for worship more than a hundred years ago. There are some wonderful stories told ot those good old times when Daniel Webster and Henry Clay, on their way to Washing ton, use to jump oh the,stage at Elizabeth town, and thought it tine beneath the genius of the Goddess of Liberty to indulge for live minutes in aqua vine, gingerbread and spruce beer. Elizabethtown, per se, is as old as the aged woods around, but the spirit of pro gress has not as yet come upon it._ Several attempts were made to make it a county seat, but there slvvays appeared too much opposition from Lancaster on one side and Harrisburg on the other. A more healthy place, and a nicer site for a town, there is not in Pennsylvania. The time may come though, as the most enterprising part of the inhabitants expect, when Elizabethtown will yet be a county seat. This is an agent material progress and improvements as well us of a tendency to Catholic Unity. FOX. CHASE.—On Saturday last agreeably to a public announcement, a large number of persons attracted hither from venous sections of the county met at Silver Spring to witness a fox chase: After partaking of a sumPtous repast, given by Mr. E. Hopton, mine host of the Silver Spring Hotel, it was announced that Raynard would be set free, the crowd retired to a field iu the rear of the hotel, foxy started North at a very rapid rate turning several somersaults over the cornstalks protruding through the snow, causing the spectators to shout, which elic ited a response from the hounds confined in the barn,bearing which Raynard concluded to change his course and wheeled around and came back almost over his own tracks and wont through the crowd from whence be startedffle passed East after getting away several hundred yards he deliberately sat down combed his whiskers with his front and hind feet, then rolled himself several times in the snow, and started in a zig-zag course which baffled the dogs very much when on his trail, and turned in the direc tion of Salunga, in about twenty minutes the hounds were let loose, they soon got the scent and gave tongue, when a hunter from Columbia exclaimed, "do you hear the I heavenly music" when a ,amateur sports man from Lancaster responded that " the hounds made so much noise that he could not hear it." Raynard after being run about three miles took refuge under a barn near Salunga, he was unearthed and taken to Lancaster by the sports from that place. The " pot" was divided between those from Columbia and Chesnut bill. We learn that there will be another fox chase at Isaac Evans' hotel, in Petersburg, on Wednes day, the 23d inst.—Columbia Spy. RAILROAD CONNECTIONS.—The Colum bia and Port Deposit and Baltimore Cen tral Railroads have each finished the grad ing and laid the rails to the junction of their roads on the Susquehanna river at the mouth of the Octoraro creek, and freight is already being carried from along the line of the Philadelphia and Baltimore Central over the Columbia and Port De posit railroad, by way of Port Deposit and Perryville, to Baltimore.

Gunny's LADY'S BOOR FOR 1869,—Tbe January number of this excellent ladies' magazine is out. and foreshadows what it is to be through the year 1569. Godey, being the oldest magazine in America, is therefore familiar to almost every house hold in the land, and has long enjoyed the reputation of being the best of its kind ever published. ~The number for January is in fact a prize one, and, judging from the superiority of its literary contents and em bellishments which appear to be the crown ing features, warrants us id saying that it furnishes abundant proof of its enterprise and ability to preserve the well merited encouragement and popularity it has earn ed. It opens with the very impressive steel engraving of "A King's Daughter" —being a copy of a painting of an event in the French Revolution, representing the eldest daughter of Louis XVI. a prisoner in the Temple, followed by a presentation title. page, another fine steel engraving in which are deliwated the sports of winter in a tableau plate, the centre picture of which is particularly beautiful. The lash ion plate, tinted cut—" Will it Bear?"— Jewel box in colors, large extension sheet of thirty-two novelties, " The Flight of Time"—a seasonable engraving, comprise its other attractions, while an additional feature is presented in a large sheet of em broideries of fifty patterns, which will be continued occasionally during the year.

THE WEATHEEL,-The weather has mod ' erated considerably since yesterday ( Mon day) morning, and instead of the snow storm which many fully expected we were favored with a bright sun and not unpieas antly cold atmosphere on to day. Our ex. changes state that the coldness of thpi weather for the past few days has been re markable, particularly in the West. The mercury, on Friday and Saturday last, in the Western States, even as far South as Kansas City, Missouri, was some degrees below zero; the Mississippi fiver was frozen over at many places, and the Missouri river is stated to have been blocked with ice. In oar own section of the country the ther umnaeterindicated in some localities, about twelve degrees above zero during the cold mornings of Saturday and Sunday, and in this city ice formed rapidly on the Cones top' and the City Reservoirs. In the Southern States the: cold is represented to have been quite severe; and even in the latitude of Savannah, Georgia, it is state[. that it was freezing hard all day Saturday The severity of the weather therefore ap pears to have been general, and its effects will consequently be widely felt in trade and in travel as well as in the increased suf fering of the indigent who failed, either through indolence or inability, to provide against its severity. NARROW ESCAPFL—We are informed that a young lady, a school teacher, named Fanny E. James, made quite a narrow es cape from drowning, on Monday evening. While skating on the Chiques creek near Settings, this county. The ice, not being sufficiently strong to support her weight, broke and she was barely able to sustain her head above the water, which was quite deep, by bearing on the ice which remained Urn with her arms. She was finally res cued, after considerable difficulty, from her perilous position by some persons who for tunately were not far distant when the. ac cident occurred. COLT:3IEIA AND PORT DEPOSIT RAIL - ROAD.-The Cecil Democrat states that,on the Sth inst., a train of cars ran up the Columbia and Port Deposit railroad to the Junction. and then down the Philadelphia and Balti more Central Railroad to Rowlandsville thus completing the connection. The Dent ocrat states that the Columbia and Port Deposit Railroad is a splendid piece of workmanship and skill throughout, con trasting very forcibly with the Philadelphia and Baltimore Central Railroad, which is laid with much lighter iron, and embanked much less durably. The Columbia and Port Deposit railroad have put up a tight board fence about 6 feet high. from the Log Pond to the toll house of the Old Maryland Canal. This is at the point of the road where the railroad edges too closely on the highway, for public safety, and is put up to lessen danger to travellers with horses. NEW PATENT.—Antlaony Isk col' this city, having assigned nil his right and interest to Benjamin Mishler, in this invention ; has just received Letters Patent, dated t)ecetn• ber nth, Ibti9, for an Improved Burglar Alarm and Table Bell. This is a neat and convenient pocket alarm, and can be laid on a table or hung on the wall like a Watch, near the Bed, and by means of common thread connected with every door and window in the room no matter how many, in such a manner that to open or move any one will be sure to sound the alarm. As a Table Bell it is quite as neat and desirable as any other bell used for that purpose. Messrs. Reed at Co., proprietors of Reed's Rupture Oint ment, have this capital Alarm Bell attached to the front door o. their office, No. 2 South Queen street, directly opposite the INTEL LIGENCER Office, and we can say that it works admirably, for we have seen it. Obtained through the Agency of J. Stouf fer of this city. A SAD A FI'AIR.—A number of our read ers will doubtless remember the two Italian boys who, a few weeks ago, played with violin and harp in our streets and saloons for the amusement of our citizens. They will be sorry to learn that these boys, on Tuesday last, met with an accident in NV .- lotnisport, while crossing the railroad track at that place, which resulted in the death of the larger, and the serious injury of the smaller boy. The dead boy had two ribs and built legs broken; the physicians have hopes of the recovery of the youngest boy. A considerable amount of money was:found in their possession. CALFSKIN.—The editor of the Oxford Press was recently presented by Mr. Henry Kurtz, proprietor of the large tannery at Mount Joy, this county, with a sample calfskin. Mr. Kurtz also announces that he leas presented General Grant with one of his best callskins. These calfskins were finished by Mr. James B. McVey, who is in the employ of Mr. Kurtz, and who is said to bee master hand at the business. The Press adds that it will publish a description of the extensive tannery of Mr. Kurtz, and ot the process of making leather, in a future number. Fox Husvisii.—Our sporting friends of Salisbury, in the neighborhood of the White Horse, are now enjoying themselves with the chase, line day lust week, a grand fox chase came off, at the residence of Mr. Isaac Diller, where a large number of the sport ing gentry had met, among the number was Jake Rutter, of Williamstown, and John Hess, who each caught one large fox alive, and thebounds killed one more, all the seine day. In the afternoon the whole company was entertained by Mr. Diller and partook of the abundance of his well tilled table. Fas - r.—There is a man, says the York True Democrat, residing in the lower end of that county who says there is a horse in that neighborhood who can trot a mile in 1.191•. Ile saw him tried and he timed him himself on an old brass watch that never failed. Dexter's star evidently has set, and Bonner must come to York county for an improvement of his stock. Rise TO-DAY.—'Tis madness to neg lect a cough or cold, however slight. Con sumption may follow, and though Dr. IVl.sfar's Belson of Wild Cherry has fre quently cured this much dreadful disease, for the primary diseases of the throat, lunge and chest, it always cures where other remedies fail.—Cumnuoticafcd.
