[For the Intelligencer, f Cambridge, Pa., AprilSl, 1869. Messrs. Editors : Knowing your paper to have a wide circulation, I take pleasure in informing the public through your col umns, that literary interest is active, and that the people oi this neighborhood are awake to the importance of education and rejoice iu the progress of science. Wednesday and Thursday evenings, the 1-lth and 15th inst., were seasons of un snal interest to the citizens of Cambridge and vicinity. The main street was alive with the young, the middle-aged and the old, while the air was vocal with the sound of merry voices. Ladies attired in gor geous beauty and gentlemen with beuvy moustuches and side whiskers, all moving in one huge crowd to the Methodist Epis copal Church of Cambridge, where was be ing held a public school exhibition, formed a Beene of excitement. Under the wise and praiseworthy super intendence of Mr. Wm. Irwin, the teacher, the exhibition was made one of the greatest entertainments of the age. It was- an ab solute intellectual triumph and was well calculated to inspire the hearts of the peo ple with the highest appreciation of the scholars’ efforts. The’pupUs manifested a great interest, and in the disposal of different parts crowned their efforts with signal suooess, showing beautifully and conolnsively to the audience, that where there is a will thereiis a way. The exercises consisted of choioe decla mations, as well as an abundance of dia, logues, which were new, novel, humorous and instructive. u The Country Cousins," and the “ Scene in Court," were dialogues never before the public, afld they, in com bination with the other exercises, were superlatively grand and merited the highest esteem of the audience, and brought forth constant peals of applause. The presence of the Cambridge Cornet Band greatly im proved the exercises, and in their per formance of excellent music, they certainly merit the approval of the public and bid fair to become a band, such as the citizens of this place may feel glad to own as theirs. The house was densely crowded, good or der prevailed and all passed off commend ably and satisfactory. A vote of thanks being tendered to the Band for their choice music, the crowd dispersed much pleased ; with the entertainment. Sophocles, j Latest by Telegraph Contreulonal. Washington, April 20. Senate. —When the Senate met to-day Mr. Ross made a personal explanation re lative to the published accounts of bis in terview with the President, which he said were grossly incorrect. He entered at some length into his grievances in the matter of the Kansas appointments, claiming that good Republicans, who had been gallant soldiers, were removed for no other reason than that they were his friends. Mr. Pomeroy replied, saying that in his opinion, the President’s course with re gard to these appointments would be sus tained by the people of Kansas. He said the persons removed were unfriendly to the Republican party, and two of them hud run for office on the Democratic ticket. The adjournment resolution was called up by Mr. Edmunds and opposed by Mr. Sumner. It was announced that the Senators had information that the President would send in his last batch of appointments to-duy, and that they would be few and unimport ant. Tho resolution was finally atumended to read, that whon the Somite adjourns, on Thursday, it adjourn without day, which will allow the session, if necessary, to be prolonged to Friday noon, nnd was then passed.

Home time alter he mlssod his wutch and poekot-liook, but recovered his pocket-book two days alter from a Mr. (irabill. Shortly after Seltzer asked him if ho hud not otfored a reward for llio watch und chain, ami why ho did not do so. Mr. Drabenstudt notified the jewellers , and watchmakers of his loss,und was even tually informed by Hirsh Brothers liiut , Hellzor hud boon to tholr store with thu watch and chain.

A Curiosity in Coleratn Township. —A little boy named Henry Kessler, son of J. U. Kessler, of Colerain township, this county, has a turkey hen that a few days ago laid an egg having plainly marked upon it the letters W. A. R. These letters were not marked upon the fegg after it was laiu, but are produced by white lines clear of the usual spots on turkey eggs. Many of the neighbors have seen the egg and con sider it a genuine declaration of War from Turkey. Retired, —The friends of Brevet Major General Heint/.elman will be to learn that after many years of active mili tary service be bas been.placed by Congress on the retired list under the pay of a Major General, the President having approved the same.

Sudden Death.— Dr. John Ream, an old and respected physician, residing at Roh rerstown, this county, died very suddenly* at 4 o’clock on Saturday, from an attack of apoplexy. An Elegant Party,— The complimen tary soiree, to be given by Brittan’s dancing class on May eve, promises to be one of the most elegant parties of that kind which ever came off in Lancaster. We ex pect to see a great array of beauty present; “ Auburn hair and raven tresses, Sparkling eyes and smiling faces.” All aglow with the exhilaration of the dance. The arrangements being aade are of the most perfect order. A Bucks County paper, speaking of old houses, says that there is a house in South-* ampton township, in that county, that was built In 1718. Lancaster county can beat that easy. There is a stone house standing at Sharpless’ mill in Sadsbury township that was built in 1714. It has been repair ed several times but the original walls are still standing. Appointed Notary Public,— On Satur day Governor Geary appointed H. S. Gara, of this city a notary public. Resumed Practice.— Octavus J, Norris, Esq., formerly of this city, has resumed the practice of law in Philadelphia. More Hydrophobia — Two Mad Doga I Shot*-- Yesterday afternoon oertain parties residing in the Second Ward, this city, re ported at police headquarters that a dog manifesting all the symptoms peculiar to rabies was in an alley between Lime and Shippen streets. Offloers Gandaker and , Flatter at once repaired to the place dealg-1 nated, and found the dog exhibiting very I decided signs of madness—the dog was Im mediately dispatched by them.' ' This morning a large strange dog, sup- : posed to be from the country, effected an entrance into the baok yard of the residence of Mr. John Wilhelm, which Is on the north aide of East Chestnut street, between Lime and Shippen street, in the Sixth Ward— The alley gate having been left ajar the dog entered through it, and being attacked by ! a fit of madness in bis paroxyew he tore a chicken coop to pieces, killing one of the chickens which it contained. In the inter val following the convulsion, the dog pro ceeded toward the P. R. R. depot; when he reached the smith shop immediately east of the depot he was again seized with convul sions, and commenced grinding bis teeth and snapping, a frothy saliva in the mean while exuding from his mouth. The rabid animal was soon, however, shot by Mr. ! Owen Hopple, and the city relieved from a j most deadly pest [ Wo have heard of several other dogs be ing shot by their owners in different parts of the city on account of their manifesting symptoms of hydrophobia. But the above cases are the only ones we have yet learned I of in which the dogs were at large, and the symptoms of such a decided character as to leave no doubt of the animals beiDg attack ed with hydrophobia. The City Police have been enforcing with commendable zeal the appropriate and timely proclamation of the .Mayor, issued on the 12th inst. A number of unmnzzled dogs running at large in the different Wards have been shot, and in this way doubtless most fatal consequences have been avoided. The city authorities are deserving of greut praise for their prompt action in endeavor ing to prevent the spread of hydrophobia in the city by a determined enforcement of the law.

The deceased was a prominent and successful railroad con tractor for many years, and, in company with bis brother Richard McGrann, lately deceased, was engaged in the constructor of the Pennsylvania Central and other prominent railroads in this State and else where. John McGrann was an honest, modest and retiring citizen, and enjoyed the esteem aud full confidence of a very large circle of friends. He leaves a family to mourn his deceased. A Bad Bov.—On Tuesday, the 12th inst. a pocket book containing $l4O was stolen from the store of Seldomridgeund Blank in Salisbury township. It appears that a boy named Hervey Gallagher was noticed about the store in the afternoon, and as his provi-S ous character was bad, suspicion at once rested upou him, and Mr. Seldomridge | procured a warrant and the services of I Constable Bowman and took Gullagber I into custody. At first he denied all know!- I edge of the affair, but on promise of not I beiug prosecuted, acknowledged that he I had stolen the money and buried it in his I father’s garden, In searching at the spot pointed out by him tho money was found, excepting $2O which he had spent, Gulla gber is about sixteen years oj age, aud has been several times detected in stealing from the storos in the vicinity. That Riot. —The Local MarictUan says that the newspapers {have beeu imposed upou respecting the magnitude of the re cent riot in Marietta. The statement of the Mariettian is that “ three or four Iriahtown rowdies did attack several up-rivermen and bad quite a free fight just about car time on Wednesday evening, but no body vras dangerously hurt. It is true, never theless, that about half a dozen fellows at the upper end of town—who are constantly “ spiling for a-fight”—should bo prosecuted and taught a lessou.” Sheriff’s Sale.— The following Real Estate of Miller Eckman, of this city, was sold, Thursday, by the SherilT: No. 1.

Franklin and Marshall College.— A recent number of the Philadelphia Press contains the following articlo on Frankliu and Marshall College: With summer come the college catalogues, al ways an interesting ludex of the progress of the educational interests of the country. Franklin and Marshall College, Lancaster, Pa., have jußt Issued their annual register, showingan attendance of seventy-three stu dents in the college proper, with some fifty in the grammar school. This Is an exhibit which revonls encouraging prosperity, par ticularly when we Consider the especial character of this institution. Created origi nally in tho service of purely clerical ami liberal education, It still bolds Itself exclu sively true to this original object. A wide, popular demand, it 1b known, prevails at this time fqr education In more practical forms, and It has become tho fashion largely to shape collegiate training In conformity with It, by combining in various ways Mel on ll lie or technic studies with liberal studios, strictly so called. Hitch business discipline is of course highly Important, and It Is welj til tit different colleges, which fmvult in tholr power to do so, are testing thu quosllon how far I lean bo successfully joined with culture In tho other view. Franklin und Marshall College disclaims, however, falling In with this policy, und does not usk public attention or favor on uny such grounds. Thu ambition of tho institution is to be a college In the old American senso of the term. Thoro are, therefore, no optional courses of study Iu Franklin and Mumhall College, In which tho learner Is allowed to choose for himself what ho shall learn. It receives no i'W/m -lav students, as they are called, und hah no provisional or mixed clauses, Tills may bo with huujo un objection lo the Institution, but to others it will be u recommendation ; uud tho fact of tho very roHpoctable number of students who have sought tho bails of this institution proves that it supplies a real want. ’ Eyes and Spectacles.— We had tho pleasure of attending, ou Saturday evening, , lu tho Court House, au excellent lecture ou I the auatouiy and physiology of the human oye, und use und abuse of spectacles, de I livered by Prof. E. S. Franks, tho talentod ! optician of New York, who is now in this i ct»y on a profesioual visi: for u few days. 1 There wus assembled u numerous und re spectable audience, who seemed to iisten i with much interest and marked attention Ito the lecturer’s scientific remarks. Wo j were not awure of tbo vital Importance ll is | to the oye sight lo have good glasses and I accurately applied, or the Injury we sustain by bad lenses, or improperly adjustedones. , The lecturer left no doubt in our mind of his perfect knowledge of the subject he dis cussed. *He commenced by clearly de scribing the laws of optics aud principles of light, then the formation, functions, physi ology, aud capabilities of the humuu eye anu action of spectacles, perfect and im perfect, on that organ. He was materially aided by some of the best models and dia grams in the States, of which Dr. Franks was tbo author. He exhibited ou some very ingeniously contrived workiug me chanical models of the eye, in a very mas terly manner, the action ofspectacles, which proved to uaveiy satisfactorily that spec tacles are often (even by the medical facul ty) recommended where they ought not to be used, and that the mere vender of spec tacles is oftener in the habit of offering his deleterious counsel, and seriously injures the eve by maltreatmeut for want of under standing its forms and functlous, and the action of spectacles thereon. The Professor is a good speaker, gentlemanly In his man ner and a thorough optician. Iu fact we earnestly recommend our friends using spectacles to have their eyes examiued and supplied with glasses during bis limited stay here, as this is an opportunity of ob staining hie spectacles and advice that mhy-never occur again. He is the sole patentee. His office for the short time be ; remains in Lancaster, is at Mrs. Mason’s, No. 108 East King street, where wo under stand he has a lnrge stock of patent spec- j tacles for sale. j Local Legislation*. The following legislation has recently been had relative to Lancaster county: An act to exolude certain farm land from the borough of Washington, Lancaster county. Ruled out of order by the Speak er, the Courts having jurisdiction. An act to incorporate the Intercourse As sociation of Lancaster county, ;or the re covery of stolen horses and other stolen property and detection of thieves ; also, a supplement to an act establishing the Fite’s Eauy ferry; also, an act to incorporate the Manheim Slate Company passed both House and Senute. Senate bill to increase the number of terms of the several Courts in this J udieiul District, and to expedite business therein, passed the House with an uinondrneut, ex cepting from its provisions writs of execu tion. An act allowing parties to place iish bask ets iu the Susquehanna river, in the conn ties of York'aud Lancaster, was amended to include the county of Perry. The whole upper Susquehanna delegation opposed the bill, on the ground that it would destroy young shad and other flab. The bill was strongly advocated by Messrs. Peters, of Lancaster, and Porter, of York, but with out success. It was defeated—yeas, :10 ; nays 40. An act relative to the President, Managers und Company of the Lancaster, Elizabethtown and Middletown Turnpike Hoad Company: also an act to extend an act to prevent horses, cattle, sheep and swine from running at lurge to the town ships of Burt, Salisbury and Colerain, havo passed the House. The following introduced by Mr. Hop kins, also passed the House : An act for the taxing of dogs in the coun ty of Lancaster, for the benefit of the lioine for Friendless Children of tho ouunty of Lancaster. It provides that the Commis sioners shall have all dogs owned by citi zens of the county returned by the Asses sors. on wbioh a tax of one dollar per bead shall be collected, of which the treasurer shall keep a separate account for the use of the Home for Friendless Children. Any dog, not so returned and taxed, is liable to be killed wherever found. Items. —We find the following Items of local interest in the Oxford Ptcm : Michael Davis, of New York, visiting Oxford last week, was arrested on the oharge of stealing §lOO from Patrick Flaher ty. He was taken before Justice Fulton, but the prosecutor refused to testify against him ana Michael was released. Our farmers have improved the opportu nity afforded by the fine weather of the past two weeks to sow tbeir oats, plant po tatoes and plow for corn. Owing to the failure of the oats crop the last few years, farmers are not sowing so grsat a breadth of this grain as formerly. . Prof. James H. Kerr, of Cape Girardeau, Missouri, (formerly of East Nottingham, Chester county,) has recently been appoint ed Curator of the Missouri State University. Professor K. is also Superintendent of Pu b • lie Schools of his county, and the Cape Gi rardeau Weekly News speaks in flattering terms of him. The werld moves! somebody in Oxford has a conscience! A letter was received by the Secretary of the Treasury at Washing ton from a citizen of Oxford, Pa., contain ing $1.50, sent in payment for revenue stamps to that amount which the writer had found and used. Although this honest person missed the mark by sending tbe money to Washington instead of llndingan owner nearer home, still bis or her honesty is to be commended. Who in Oxford can be guilty of conscience. Hod. Walter B. Dance, a native of Ches ter county, 1b now a member of the Mon tana Legislature—chairman of the -Com mittee or Ways and Means in the House. He served an apprenticeship of four years (from 1842 to ’4B) at wheelwrighting with a citizen of Penn twp., Chester county, who then carried on that business. His former employer Informs ns that he was an indus trious and energetic young mail. He went West where he was successful in accumu lating considerable property, and this last winter he tnrns up in the Legislature of tbe rich and progressive territory of Montana. Truly time works wondrous changes. The apprentice boys ofto-day should remember that they may be the legislators of our oountry a few years hence—if they improve tbeir opportunities. Appointed Oil Inspector.— Governor Geary has appointed Mr. John W. Bruner oil inspector for Columbia and Lancaster counties. Bryan’s great Menagerie and circus will be In Lancaster onthe26thinst—nextMon day. People never get tired of these shows, I and flock to them on every occasion of their , appearance.

The menagerie of Mr. Bryau is unlike any precedent, and contains more varieties ana rarer specimens of beasts and birds J than have ever been presented to the people of this continent. A veritable Abyssinian . Zebra, white camel, silken lamas, the mas- J todon royal tiger, the smallest elephant ever seen, elks, an Alpine Ibis, blaokman ! ed African lions and cubs, are.among the raro specimens advertised.

Should tho weather cootinue mild, the market will be stocked in a few days. A few of the finny tribe buve been caught at Safe Harbor. Mr. Win. P.
