?Our town was suddenly "aroused
from its warm aud peaceful slumbers at
three o'clock on -Saturday morning by the
terrifying -cry of "fire ! Gre !" and on
rushing isto the very cold out of doors,
the small house owned by Jas. U. Stroud
on Green 'street, and occupied by "Aunt
iPolly White," was found to be enveloped
in flames. The house was burned to the
grouud, and "Aunt Polly" aud her son
Carey lost everything they possessed, ex
ccpt what they had on their persons.
They were both away from home, she
on a visit to her daughters,
They arc fit objects of charity. A town
so noted as ours is for its charity and be
nevolence should see that Aunt Polly is
in the end none the worse off lor her loss.
A bill relative to the solomnizatiou of
marriages has passed the Legislature.
Magistrates, clergymen and persons au
thorized by religions societies uay per
form the marriage ceremony, and a penal
ty of $500 is imposed upon any other per
son who may officiate. A certificate, at
tested jy at least two witnesses, is to be
required in all cases. The law imposes a
penalty for marrying persons of uusound
mind, or who may be intoxicated, or ini
aors without the consent of parents. No
.marriage which has been cousumated is
io be held invalid.
-
Veto of the Freedman's Bureau Bill.
On Moudsy last, President Johnson re
turned to the Senate, with. his veto, the
bill passed by the two houses of Congress,
to extend the powers of the FrcedmcnV
Bureau. The. President expresses his re
gret at being compelled to dissent from
the views of Congress as it regards the
features of the bill, and deems it incon
sistent with the public welfare to give
the measure his approval, lie considers
that the power which is conferred upon
the Executive by the enactment "is such
as in times of peace, certainly, ought nev
er be entrusted to any man."
Again, in a hasty glance over the uics
age, at an hour too late to do it justice,
vrc conclude that the President considers
Vhc bill as too, expensive, that its legitla
tion is not required, and, finally, that it
is unconstitutional, lie argues tbc ques
tion, ancksubjects several sections to close
analysis, and thinks the bill, when exam
. ined in detail, open to weighty objections.
After the Message was read, Senator
Lane of Kansas, moved that it be printed
aud its reconsideration be postponed.
The Senate ordered its printing, and fi
nally the majority agreed to postpone
the question before the chamber until the
20th, wheu it will be taken up and acted
upon at once.
The Rinderpest An Alarm in Pennsyl
vaniaIt is Reported to the Legisla
ture as Now existing in Montgomery
County.
The Philadelpliia Inquirer of Saturday,
leb. 17, publishes the followohg as its
leading editorail article:
"This unpleasant question will force
itself upon the public notice from to-day.
In our report of the proceedings of the
Btate Legislature yesterday, will be notic
ed with ominous distinctness the semioffi
cial account from Montgomery County
recounting the ravages of a cattle plague,
uimilar in all appearances to the terrible
llinderpest now devastating Englaud.
This report sets forth that the diseased
meat has been sold in the markets of our
city. The official publicity given to the
prevalence of the disease" will check
this at once. Those whose duty it is to
inspect the meats offered lor sale to the
citizens of Philadelphia, will see the
necessity of exercising more than ordinary
Tigilance.
A special committee bus been appoint
ed by the State Senate to thoroughly in
vestigate the report from Montgomery
County. ISj proper precaution the dis
ease can be confined to the infected dis
tricts, as has been abundautly proved by
the experience of Euglish farmers and
8tock-raisrs. In this matter prompt and
decisive action is necessary. If the dis
ease does really exist among the cattle
of Montgomery County, a strict "bovine
quarantine" should at once beestablkhed,
and no diseased beast be allowed to cross
the borders of the infected district. In
this case an ounce of prevention is worth
any pounds of cure.
The debts of the nation and of individ
ual States and towns are enormous; and
yet do not come up to 20 per cent, of the
valuation of taxable property. We cal
culate to dig aud pump up wealth enough
to pay all off in a very few years
For the Jeffersonxan.
fcresto Change,
if r. W hackhammer has beeu xclaickiuy
at some of the prevailing errors of the
day. We wish to show up a local mis
take. Stroudjburg has attained a signif
icance now which should lead our men
of business whether that business be
great or small to limit themselves to one
particular business branch. We have too
much conglomeration aud a fair assort
ment of no one particular class of mer
chandize. If our merchants would limit
themselves to'this one branch system it
would be much better for them and their
customers. They could buy larger aud
consequently could sell cheaper, whilst
customers would kjiow just where to go
for the thing they want. We had a hat
store, but others kept hats and'so clothing
enters the same place. We had a cloth
ing store but now comes hats and calico.
Dry goods, groceries, boots and shoes are
all tumbled in together and then cement
ed'' with quack medicine. Now if we
want hardware we must run around to a
dozen stores and hunt among all sorts o!
things for wh.it we want. If wo had a
hardware store everybody would know
where to expect to find the thing uccded;
and so of all other classified stores.
If this system were adopted, our stores
would appear to much better advantage
and would thereby be a great improve
ment to the town as well as benefit to our
mcrchaulS; and their customers. Now
why can't all join hands for the coming
spring aud plant ourselves on the one
branch basis 7 Other towns have done
this thing, why can't w ? Who seconds

"General" George Cool hi ugh, ncently
arrested in St Louis, on a charge of having
defrauded Mr. Slebbin-, proprietor of the
Courtland-t. IT-mse. in tins city, was brought
before Justice Dowlin, yesterday. The af
fidavits against the General developed sine
items of interest, as showing the credulity
of hotel-keener.s and the opperation of gen
tlemen who have strong inclinations foi
high living, regardless of expense.
AFFIDAVIT OF HENRY M'QUOID.
On bein placed at the bur, the Clerk, Mr.
Thomas J. Jourdan, read the affidavit of Mr.
Henry McQuoid against him.
The affidavit stated that Mr. McQuoid
had called on Charles Jenkins, E?q.. the
President of the Eusl River Bank, in this
city ana inquired oi mm it tne clciendant r
his son had an account there ; that afier the
examination of the books it was found he had
no account there; and that no such name as
George Coolbaugh was lound recorded on
the books; that Mr. Jenkins informed him
that no person by the name of George Cool-
bangh had then or ever had an account in
the bank.
AFFIDAVIT OF JOSEPH S. STEBBINS
The next affidavit read was that of Mr.
Joseph S. Stebbins, the proprietor of the
Courtland Street House The following is
a summary of the charges it set forth:
On the 4th of March, last George Cool
baugh and his wife, or a lady who passed for
his wife, came and took rooms at hi house:
he did not know him previously, but the pri
soner represented that he was we'll thy and
worth at least $100,000, he speaking fre
qucntiy of wanting to invest moneys, and
nuking inquiry of deponent how he could
best invest his funds; deponent told him in
Government securities; Coolbaugh then re
marked that he had ahead' invented largely
in Government securitiesall he wanted to
invest in that way, and that lie lud a large
amount of momy lying id'e ; he also stated
that he hsd a eposit m the East River Na
tional Bank in the city of New-York, $30,
OttO or .$40,000 in gold ; he made quite a dis
play of his wealth, and lived rather expen
sively; bin wife purchased expensive Bilk
dresses aud other costly articles of clothing ;
and he invited his friends to the house and
dined and wined therein ; he also represen
ted that beside his own property, his wife's
father, who resided atbt. L-uis,wa6 immense
ly wealth v, and oec-sioually sent his wife mo
ney for her expenses; th t at one tme he had
sen; his wife $4,000. The aifMavit further
charged tnat by such means, he induced de
ponent to believe he was a man of we.-.llh:
that on one occasion he invited some friends
to a supper party, among whom were May
or Gunther, Judge J. II. AlcCunn, Chauncy
Burr, Ex-Governor Price of New Jersey, and
others, and run a bill of about S as de
ponent charged and made out the bill, exclu
sivelv of wine; that said Coolbaugh exam
ined the bill aud remarked that it was not
high enough ; I hat deponent ought to make
it more ; that it did not come out of him, but
ojt of the Mexican Government, in whose
employ he was; he claimed to bo, and rep
resented himself to be, a Mexican General,
and was here in New-York on the busintss
of the Mexican Government ; the deponent
wishing some money, presented Coolbaugh's
bills from time to time, and he looked them
over, and said they were all right ; but from
time to time asked a little delay, saying he
did not want to draw out any ol his gold
from the bank till he drw out the whole,
which he was not yet ready to do, and depo
nent as often gave him time ; that he, with
out paying anything, applied to borrow mo
ney of deponent, making as in excuse that
he was not ready to draw out his gold ; aud
,that he had loaned out so much of his cur
rency that he was a little shorl ; he said,
however, that he had plenty of means, and
would soon realize large amounts; he also
represented to deponent that he owned a
large farm in New Jersey, well stocked,
worth at least 0,000; that he paid ihat
for it; he further stated that he hud drafts
and commercial paper to a large amouni, on
i t fi I r t .. ..
wnicn ue could toon realize lunus; tnat by
said representations, and his display and ap
pearance ol wealth, ije euececdedin borrow
irii'V.ttrti
ing from deponent from time to time to the
amount of $337 87 ; jio part of which has
ever been paid, nor has he paid to deponent
any part of his indebtedness before mention
ed. Deponent further states that from appear
ances and the many excuses made by Cool
baugh for desiring delay of payment, he be
came suspicious that everything was not a.
represented, and deponent presented the bill
io Ccolbaugh for his board, rooms, wines,
etc., nd for borrowed money, and insisted
on immediate payment or security, and for
two or three days deponent continued to
press the matter, asking him personally, and
through his couns 1, to secure the said claim.
But out of all his fundi?, drafts and commer
cial paper and other property", said Coolbaugh
did not exhibit or discover property other
than the wearing apparel of himself and wife,
and jewelry, to a value for which deponent
would be willing to pay $100. Deponent
further said that on the morning of the 3rd
of May, the wife of said Coolbaugh stepped
out of the house under pretense of soon re
tiuning. and has not sin :e been bid; ; that
.die left in a sly and clandestine manner, let
ting no one in the house know she, was going
to leave. As. far as deponent can ascertain,
and on a search made a ftei wards, deponent
has found that alt the anich-s of her ward
robe of any considerable value, except a few
dresses were taken away c'andeatinely, and
as deponent believes, through the cellar or
basement while the guets were at breakfast.
Deponent further said that an officer with
an attachment against the property of Cool
baugh wa. at deponent's house on the 3d
and 4th of May, wanting to find and attach
said Coolhaugh'a baggage. The. amount of
said attachment whs between $300 and
.400. The affidavit then recites that Mr.
Stebbins was informed by his counsel thai
Mr. Co dbaugh nevvr had an account at the
Etst River Bank the fact having been de
cided by an examination of lhe books.
The affidavit next stated: Deponent fur
ther says that he had reason to believe that
the said George Coolbaugh is a common
swindler, and never intended to pay depo
ncnt ; that deponent was informed that said
Coolbaugh borrowed money of other persons;
that be got about $300 from J. A. Comstock,
.x boarder in deponent's house ; and as near
ss deponent could assertam, said Coolbauh
used it and spent it, nd lives m that way.
The affidavit concluded bv charging the
prisoner with defrauding Mr. btobbins to
the extent of $1,900, for board, wiiies and
money borrowed.
In reply to the usual questions, the pris
oner stated that his name was Geore Cool
baugh, and that he had served in the Armv
during the last four years, on the staff of
Majoi -General McPherson, Superintendent
of Military Railroads. lie was then com
mitted for an examination, and the case as
signed to be heard on Saturday.

The Trout.
This is the only fish that comes in and
goes out of season with the-deer. He grows
Vapidly, and dies after reaching his full
growth. The female spawns in October
at a differcot time from nearly all oth
er fish ; after which both male and female
become lean, week, and unwholesome eat
ing, and, if examined closely, will be
found covered with a species of cloveshap
ed insects, which appear to suck their
substance from them, aud they continue
sick until warm weather, when they rub
the insects off on tbc gravel, and im
mediately grow strong. The female is
the best for the table. She may be
known by her small head and deep body.
Fish are always in season wheu their
heads are so small as to bo disproportion
od to the size of their body. The trout
is less oily and rich than the salmon ; the
female is much brighter and more beauti
ful than the male j they swim rapidly, and
often leap, like-the salmon, to a great
height when ascending streams. Iu a
trout pond they may be fed with angle
worms, rose bugs, crickets, grass hoppers,
&c., which they attack with great voraci
ty. They grow much more rapidly in
ponds than in their native streams, from
the fact that, they are better fed, and not
compelled to exercise. Trout are the on
ly fish known that possess a voice, which
is perceived by pressing them, when they
emit a murmuring sound, aud tremble all
over.
