The following anecdote of the late Mr.
Swain, from the Philadelphia Press, Is not
without its moral in other latitudes than
Pennsylvania:
Many years ago, Mr. Swain, then editor
of the Public Ledger, was hailed at-the
corner of Eighteenth and Chestnut streelß
by a very excited Ipdlvidnal, who inform- !
ed him in the most emphatic terms, “I ,
have Btopped your paper, sir,” and proceed
ed to explain the why and wherefore, all
the time gesticulating wildly. “My gra
cious, sir, you don’t say so., Obmo with me
to the office, and let us see if we cannot
remedy the matter. It grieves me thatany
one should stop my paper.” Down Chest
nut street to Third the two proceeded. Ar
riving at the offlpe, Mr. Swain said; “Why,
my dear Bir, every thing seemß to' be going
on here as usual ; I thought yon had stop
ped my paper.” Then and there the excit
ed whom the long walk, by,the
way, had partly cooled, said that he had
stopped taking the one copy of the Ledger.
Mr. Swain was profuse in his apologies
for having misunderstood the meaning of
his late subscriber’s words, and regretted
that be' had given- him the (ramp from
Eighteenth street to Third, down Chestnut.
The gentlemen' went on dlb way -home, a
wiser if not a better man, marvelling at the
Btubidify qfeditors in -general; £od.of.Mr.
’'Swain in partloplar. Before be; left, how
ever, he ordered that the Ledger be still
sent to his address.

Laughable Incident.
A laughable incident occurred at a certain
beer saloon in this city, yesterday, the pro
prietorof which had just received from Key
West a large turtle weighing four hundred
pounds. Lying on the Bidewalk it brought
a large crowd around it, among whom was
a fat man weighing as much as the turtle,
“ more or less.” Preparations were made
to cut off the head of the reptile, and the
crowd, including “ Fatty,” expressed ade
sireto see how it was done. The cook ap
peared with alarge cleaver, and placingthe
turtle on a large block, severed the head in
one blow, the blood squirting in all direc
tions on those who were gathered around
tbe turtle, causing.a stampede. The fat man
fell on the floor, rolled over, and the head of
the turtle fell upon his back, and the mouth,
gasping iirdeath, closed upon the seat ofthe
fat man’s pantaloons, nipping a small por
tion of the flesh. The man of fat was terribly
frightened, and when his unmentionables
were released from the grip of the turtle it
was discovered that he was more scared
than hurt. -Beer for the crowd aud a hearty
laugh. —Cincinnati Times .

Ihe Strlbe nt tbe Coni Bllncs.
Maucii Ciiunk, Pa., May 11. —But little
in addition to yesterday’s despatches has
been learned concerning the strike at the
coal mines. Tho-mlners in Wyoming re
gion at latest advices were still at work,
but considerable discussion as to the pro
priety of striking was going on. A com
mittee of Hazleton strikers left that place
yesterday afternoon for the Wyoming
mines, lor the purpose of inducing work
men engaged to stop work. Summit Hill,
Nesquehoning and Hazleton mines, with
the exception of those engaged in Shßrp,
Wess & Co’s mine, went out yesterday.
They are holding meetings for the purpose
of inducing or compelling other miners to
join in the strike. So far as can be ascer
tained nothing has been done by the com
panies towards effecting a compromise or
acceding to the demands of the disaffected
workmen. It is thought that they will hold
out for a long time, and accept nothing less
than thh increase now demanded, which is
about fifteen per cent. The strike will, no
doubt, become general.

The Old Guard. —The following contents
of this popular Monthly, for May, are of a
character : “Fifteenth Amend

groes.” Article 12, under the caption “ As'
tonnding Delusions and Falsehoods Em
ployed by Wilberforce to Turn Loose the
Negroes of the West Indies,” which places
that “ reformer” in his true light before tbe
world. The “Construction of the Bible,”
by a Hebrew Scholar, who has given years
of labor to this great subject, is worthy of
careful perusal. W. Gilmore Simms’ story,
“ The Cub of the Panther.” The balance of
the literary matter, including the poetical
department, is considerably above the late
average of merit. The “Book Table” and
the “ Editors Table,” are both fall of capi

for May makes a splendid number.

interest to them. The popular orators of
the day ure'tbose who speak not only/or

referred to the present oondition of the
South. How its fertile plains had been
devastated,and Its fields laid waste by-war.
He mentioned the great fortuity of its soli,
its climatic advantages, and its wonderful
mineral resources. He assured his hearers
that tbe South was desirous of peace, and
that to emigrants a cordial ffelcome would
be extended. Labor aqdjcapitat'ia what It
needs. While it asks for bread do not give
it a stone. At the conclusion of his address
Mr. S. was greeted with great applause,
and wks the recipient of d large number of
beaoUful bopqnets from the ladles present.
“Patrick Henry” was the subject of an
eulogy by Mr, S. A. Baer, Maxalawny,
Pa. The address was well written and well
delivered; the great orator of ’76 found an
eloquent eulogist In the speaker.
Mr. A E. Truxal, Pleasant Unity, Pa;,
with the abstruse subject, “The Mysterious
Nature of Life,” made an interesting ora
tion. The fine voice of the speaker and his
graceful gestures won tbe close attention of
the audience.
Mr. O. L. Ashenfolter, Philadelphia, Pa.,
read a Poem entitled “The DelVtge.” Mr.
A. acquitted himself wonderfully well in
this difficult department of literature, and
on every side we heard commendations
from persons in th9audience of the excel
lence of tbe production. Tbe poem was
read in fine style, with fitting gestures and
audible voice.
The Goethean Oration—subject “ Man’s
Destiny,” was delivered bv Mr. W. N.
Kremer, of this city. This honorary posi
tion given Mr. Kremer-on the programme
exhibited on the part of the society a proper
appreciation of his merits as a public
speaker. Mr. K„not only writes remark
ably well, but so writes that his orations
are capable of being delivered with telling
effect. No synopsis of his oration, would
convey an adequate idea of its roeritfr--U

The audience was dismissed with tho

and the. Committee of Arrangements;
Messrs M. J. Hess, N. H; Fisher, D. R.

The Harris Dbntal Association.—
The second annual stated meeting of the
Harris Dental Association of the’County of
Lancaster was held at the office of Dr. John
G. Moore, at New Holland, on tho .after
noon of Thursday, the oth Inst. *.
The eleotlon of officers for the ensuing
year resulted as follows :
President—Dr. Sam’l Welehens, of Lan
caster.
Vice President—Dr. P. W. Hiestand, Mil
lersyille.
Secretary—Dr. Wm, Niohols Amer, Lan
caster.
Treasurer—Dr. J. G. Moore, Now Hol
land.
Executive Committee—Drs. John Mc-
Calla, Lancaster; J. F. Hoffer, Columbia;
M. H. Webb, Lancaster.
Delegates to Btate Society—Drs. P. W.
Hiestand, J. G. Moore, M. H. Webb.
Delegates to American Dental Assocla
tion-Drs. Wm. Nichols Amer, J. F. Hoffer,
John McCalla.
This Association though young in years,
has already become an institution of more
than ordinary importance in onr midst. It
is composed of men of energy and character
both in a moral and scientific point of view;
and we are told by those who are well in
formed in the premises, that it displays a
working capacity of a first-class character.
It has been mainly instrumental in found
ing the “ State Dental Association which
was organized in December last in the City
of Philadelphia, and which bida fair to be
one of the best working societies In the
country.
We find also that the Harris has been
duly honored by the State Society, in giving
it a larger proportion of its officers than fell
to the lot of any other local society. Among
the officers whose names appear in the
Charter of the State Dental Association, we
find Dr. Sam’l Welcbens, as one of the Vice
Presidents, Dr. John SJcCalla, as Treasurer,
and Dr. Wm. N. America a member of one
of the leading Standing Committees.
The object of these Associations is to raise
the standard of the Dental Profession to a
proper equality with other professions, by
developing a higher scientific status, and
lurging it of quackery, by obtaining legis
ation for such purpose, aud leading public
sentiment to appreciate more fully the great
benefit of some such action.
The local Associations, in connection with
the State Society, have already established
such a prestige in favor of a systematic
movement of this character, as to be rapidly
drawing the very best practitioners of tbe
State into them, as a proper and comforta
ble professional home.
Post Office Officials.— The following
persons have been appointed by the new
Postmaster Mr. H. W. Hager;
Clerks, Andrew Leibley, Scott P. Lytle,
Samuel Etchells. Letter Carriers, James
H. Marshall, Sam’l M. Hambright, Henry

senger, William Wright.
Jacob Martin, Clerk, and C. F. Eberman,
Letter Carrier, haye resigned to take posi
tions in the Assessor’s office, the former as
Clerk and the latter as Assistant Assessor.
We take this opportunity of extending
our thanks to the retiring officials for the
many courtesies shown ns by them,and we
are glad to notice that a portion of the old
force are retained at the office, as their fami
liar faces will in part make up for the;ab
senco of the others.
Oats.—lt is not only dogs that seem to
have* this year, a periodical visitation of
madness, but several -cats have exhibited
similar signs this spring; in conse
quence of which several have been killed.
Their bite when in a rabid state is very
poisonous and persons have been known to
be obliged to suffer amputation of a finger
tbat has been bitten by them whilst in a
rabid state, to prevent the poison effecting
the arm and even the whole system, which
has been known to cause death to children
from symptoms similar to hydrophobia.
It is only a few weeks back that Mr.
Genslichter, of this city, was badly bitten
in his fingers by a cat, which, from the poi
sonous natore of the bite, so inflamed his
: whole hand and caused him such excruci
ating pain, that he coaid not work for near
two weeks, and feels the effect of it up his
whole arm to the present day.
Bounty Claims.— lnstructions have
been given from the Treasury Department,
under the late bounty law, tbat hereafter,
in paying soldiers’ claims, two checks shall
be given—one to the agent or attorney, for
the fee allowed by law, and the other sent
direct to the soldier for the remainder due.
The fees allowed in olaims. of white sol
diers are ten per cent, on any additional
amount less than $BOO, and $6O on claims in
excess of $BOO. In colored cases the fees are
$5, $7.60 and $lO, according as the amount
due is less than $5O, between $5O and $lOO,
or over $BOO. In the colored cases, but not
the white ones, advances and notarial ex
penses are Included In the amount paid to
the agent.
New Letter Box.—A patent hak'been
secured fora new letter bpx greatly superior
to that now in use. It will no 1 doubt soon
be used in allthe cities in the United-States.
In Washington it is alreadysupplafitingthe
old one. The dimensions arq considerably
greater than the box now used, and it has a
lid opening lust far enough to admit a thick
letter, which, on being inserted, slips in a
Bllde and falls into a receptacle. The letter
once in, no Ingenuity can abstract it,’unless
tbe box is opened with tbe regular key.
Aw Old Stoye.—ln the friends’ meeting
house at Enterprise, this county, is a ptove
still in use bearing date 1761, which origin

The following "Assignment has been
made:
Henry S. MuaselmaD, Assignor, Clement
K. Bixfer, Asalgne^
DBS. Nevin amd Sohaf.—The New
York Independent speaking of these distin
guished theologians saya: “ Rev. John W.
Nevin stands foremost among American
theologians. More than a quarter ota cen
tury ago he left the commouion ,of the
Presbyterian Church, in wbioh he wa® rear
ed, and in which he had already attained
eminence, to identify himself with the Ger
man Reformed Church, which is u mere
provincial body hardly known out of Penn
sylvania, though it has' some strength in
Maryland and Ohio. Professor Scbaf was
for years obscured in the same ohurch, and
was a fellow professor in Mercersbarg with
Dr. Novln, and a contributor to its Beview.
But fortunately for himselfand the country
Dr. Scbaf has emerged from the mountains
oi Pennsylvania,, has taken up his real'
dence in the real metropolis of the nation,
and is actively and honorably connected, bb
a scholar and a clergyman, with the general
movement of religious thought and action
in the land. But, distinguished and able
as Dr. Schaf is, according to the testimony
of Dr. C. Houge, Dr. Nevin is much the
* stronger man.’ But Dr. Nevin remalnaat
Lancaster, immersed in the small quarrels
of denominational interests of the German
Reformed. Church, and is chiefly known to
the American public through the misrepr o '
sentations of rival, theologians and their
partisans.”.
A Handsome Certificate. —Wo were
shown recently by Dr. Samuel Welcliens a
copy of a very handsome certificate of
membership, which is given to all those
who are members of “The Harris Dental
Association”; of this county. The certificate
is printed in an admirable manner ai id the
names of the members are inserted by Al
derman Cbas. R. Frailey in the very best
style of that famous obirographer. T 1 leseal
adopted by the Association has repree tented
upon {it tbe“pen, candle, and forceps, the
words " Instituted 1867,” and the motto
Post Tenebras Lux. 1 ' The certificate was
printed at the Intelligencer Job Offloo, and
wo can say, without incurring the (iharge
of egotism, that a finer piece of workman
ship cannot be produced. All, who have
seen the certificates, have admired the
beauty of their design and finish.
Delegate EeiEOTTons.—The Radical
County Committee met this morningin the
Orphans’ Court Room, in the Court House,
to adopt for .the future election of
delegatee to the State . Convention. After
considerable-wind had been, expended be
tween the factions it was decided that every
candidate for delegate should announce bis
choice for Governor that be intended to
support, and that the Chairman of the
County Committee should call a general
throughout the county, for the pur
pose of electing such delegates upon the
Crawford County System. This is con
sidered a Dickey faction victory.
Incendiarism.— A fireoccurred near the
Compass tavern, in West Clan township,
Chester county, a few rods from the Lan
caster county line, on Tuesday night last,
which consumed a carriage house and hog
pen on the property of Susan Skiles. The
property is occupied by George W. Wagoq
or who farms it. The fire was first discov
ered, about mid-night, and was doubtless
the work of an incendiary. A grain sepa
rator in the carriage house was Darned np.
Several hogs that were In the pen at the
time it was fired were burned to death. It
was doubtle&s the intenQon of the vllllans
who did the act to commit 'robbery, as at
the time the fire was in progress, a man
was discovered on the porch roof at the
Compass tavern, trying to enter the house
through a window. He was seen by a wo
man who rang a bell loudly, which fright
ened him away. There is no clue to the
perpetrators ot the act.— lnquirer.
ANew Paper,— Wm. B. Wiley, esq.,
proposes shortly to commence the publica
tion in this oity of a paper called the Lan
caster Bar % which will be devoted exclu
sively to legal advertisements, Court pro
ceedings, and business transacted in the
offices iu the Court House.
Geobge Brubaker, Esq., one of the
firm of Stejiman, Clarkson <fe Co., of the
Mechanics’ 1 Bank, of this city, has with
drawn from that establishment.
Fire.— At half past ten o’clock las t night
a fire occurred in the stable of Mr. H. N.
Landis, tavernkeeper, at Petersburg, this
county, by which the stable and some out
buildings and two buggies were consumed
and. a horse burned to death. A board was
fpdnd torn off the lower part of the barn,
and it is, therefore, supposed that the fire
was the work of an incendiary, especially
as no light bad been near the building for
some time previous. The flames were seen
plainly from this city and the fire bells rang
the alarm.
Office Entered by Burglars.— Snpt,
Allison, of St. Charles’ 'Furnace, this place,
informs us that the office of said furnace
was entered, through a window, by burg
lars, on Friday night, last week, who were
apparently in quest of nothing but stamps;
there being a new suit ofclothing and other
valuable articles in the room, ’which were
not disturbed. There was no money in the
office, consequently the scamps got noting
for their trouble.
On the same evening, the offices of James
Cook and Hostetter A Smith, Wrightsville,
were brokeniuto, and fifty doiL its abstract
ed from the safe of the former. Twoisus
picious characters were arrested on Satur
day morning and,taken to York.—Colum

Re elected.— PioC S. G. Boyd, formerly
a teacher in this city, but now a resident of
York borough, has been re-elected Super
intendent of the Public Schools of York
county without opposition. Prof. Boyd is
an. ardent Democrat,, and is in every re
spect qualified for the responsible position
to which he has been re-elected.
Eagle Shot. —Mr. John M. Martin, of
Manor twp., recently shota very large gray
eagle in David Martin’s woods, two miles
from Millersville. The eagle measured 7
