was on his way to tho "West to invest it

package, which he was carrying in his
coat side pocket. He fell asleep between
Philadelphia and Lancaster, and when
he awoke near the latter place, he fouud
he was robbed of all of his money.

Bortre, and one which, perhaps, can on

E-ST'The dialogue purporting to have
taken place between President Johnson
and Senator Sumner, published in the
Pcmocratic popers, is a fancy sketch en
tirtly. No such a conversation was ever
lield. Mr. Sumner has not been in
Washington since President Johnson took
the cath of office. This fact conclusively
xefutes the whole story. But the fabri
cation hardly needed so direct a proof of
its groundlessness. It bore on its face
the marks of falsehood. Sumner is not a
Ijcorish simpleton nor is'Johnson wont to
ape the deportment of a surly hack dri
ver and none but a thick-skulled cop-j-erhead
would pin his faith to a story
which presented these gentlemen in a
manner so foreign to their real character
istics.

Our Democratic friends who are for sup

Hard on Sneaks.
No small nuuiber of able bodied men
have left the limits of the United States,
or have dogged about from town to town
and state to state to avoid . the dreaded
conscription. Many of these left family
and property behin'd them with some in
definate idea that they would return and
enjoy both as soon as "the storm blew o
ver." In every case these men were sneaks
and cowards, who were willing to live
under the forfeiture of that respect from
others which they could not feel for them
selves A man who is not willing to dare
for the country he lives in and the gov
ernment that protects him, is unworthy of
any of the rights of citizenship and ought
to be tabooed m all decent society.
This was the opinion of Congress. On
the 3d of March, 1865, Congress passed
the following :
"All persons who have deserted the
military or naval service of the United
States, who shall not return to said ser-
Tice or report
themsclves to a Provost
Marshal within sixty days atter the pro

relinquished and forfeited their rights to
become citizens : and such deserters shall
be forever incapable of holding any office
of trust or profit under the United btates
0r of exercising any rights of citizens
thereof j and all persons who shall desert
e mi itary or naval service, and all per

Taming Fish.
A little girl residing near a pond
Massachusetts has succeeded in
taming
some of the fish bv throwing crumbs of
bread, crackers, &c, into the water. The
species called perch seem to be the most
tractable and docile. One ot them olten
takes the end of her finger in his mouth,
while another will glide gentily into her
hand and turn on one side, aud so re
raised
mam
apparently reposing, till
quite
tn the surface. The little trirl
walks out on a plank sustained a few inch-
cs above the water, and before she reach-
es the end of the plank the fish may be
seen darting rapidly toward their feeding
crround. The larger ones, especially, are
disposed to drive off the smaller ones, but
she keeps order among them by means of
a stick with a sewing needle attached

Acquittal of Miss Harris.
Miss Harris, whose trial for the mur
der of Burroughs, clerk in the Treasury
Department, has been going on at nasb
ington for the last twelve days, was ac
quitted on the 19th irist., after the Jury
had been absent about ten minutes. The
evidence of the murder was conclusive,
and the verdict was grounded ostensibly
on a plea of insanity, but really on a maw
kish sympathy for a beautiful woman, who
claimed that she was only seeking re
venge for a breach of promise of mariage.
The scene in the Courtroom on tho. re
ception of the verdict was disgraceful.
The announcement was received with
loud applause, the waving .of handker
chiefs, aud the throwing up of hats.
Miss Harris fainted, and was carried from
the Court-room in the arms of her coun
sel. Hereafter gentlemen must be care
ful in their manner of paying attentions
to ladies, or they will be liable to be shot
at any momcut. Northern Eagle
It is understood that proceedings are

Good so ! We admit the plausibility
of this. It sounds well. Now try it this
