SUN BURY AMERICAN AND SHAM0K1N JOURNAL HOW THCOOOnS HOOK GOT A DIICVIJI. "Lounging up Soho Square in the after fioon with Terry the actor, thft, nostril of th promr-nadcr tvtre iuldenly whited tvith a concord of wrt odon from a spa ciout irea. They iloppcdyi inufled the grateful incenae, and ; pveping down per ceived through the kitchen window pre paration! for a handsome dinner, evidently on the point of being served. WWrfa feast! said Terry. 'Jelly dog!-l ihould like to make one of them.' 'I'll take any bet,' returned Hook, Hhat .1 do call Jot me at ten o'clock, and you will find that I shall be able to give a tol erable account of the worthy gentleman's champarne and venison." So saying, he marched up the steps, gave an authorative 'tap with the knocker, and was quickly lost 4o the light of his astonished companion. At a matter ol course he was immediately ; ushered by the servant as an expected guest, into the drawing-room, where a large party , bad already assembled. - The apartment be ing well nigh full, no notice was at first taken of his intrusion, and half a dozen ' people were laughing at his boa-tnois, be fore the host discovered the mistuke. Af- , fecting not to observe the visible embarrass ment of the latter, and ingeniously avoid ing any opportunity for explanation, Hook ! rattled on till he had ottracted the greater part of the company in a circle round him, and some considerable time had elapsed ere the old gentleman was able to catch the at tention of the agreeable stranger. . ' u I beg your pardon, sir,' he said, con triving at last to get in a word j but your name, sir I did not quite catch it-servants are so abominably incorrect and I am really a little at a loss , Don't apologize, I ber,T graciously re plied Theodore ; 'Smith my name is Smith and, as you justly observe, servants are always making some stupid blunder . or another. I remember a remarkable in- ; stance,' &c . , - " 'Cut really, my dear sir,' continued the host, at the termination of the story illustra tive ot itupidity in servants: I think the mistake on the present occasion does not originate in the source vou allude to ; I cer tainly did not anticipate the pleasure of Mr. Smith's company at dinner to-day. " 'No, I dare say not you said four in your note; I know, and it is now, I see, a quarter past five you ore a little fast by :h e way : but the fact is, I have been de tained in the city -as I was about to ex- plain when ' "Fray,' explained the other, as won as he could stay the volubility of his guest, 'whom, may I ask you, do you suppose you are addressing ?' "Whom Why Mr. Thompson, of course old friend of ray father. I have not the pleasure, indeed, of being personally known to you, but having received your kind invitation yesterday, on my arrival from Liverpool, Frith Street four o'clock Family party come in boots you see I have taken you at your word. I am only afraid I have kept you waiting." : 'No, no, not at all. But permit me to observe, my dear sir, my name is . not cx actly.Thompson, it is Jones, and ' "Jones !' repeated the soi-distant Smith, in admirably assumed consternation ; 'Jones why surely I cannot have yes, I must Tood heaven! I sou it all! My dear sir, what an unfortunate blunder wron house what must you think of such an in trusion! I am really at a loss for words in which to apologize you will permit me to retire at present, and to-morrow' Tray don't think of retiring,' exclaim ed the hospitable old gentleman, 'your friend's table must have been cleared long ago, if, as you say, four was the hour named, and I am only too happy to be able to offer you a seat at mine.' "Hook, of course, could not hear of such a thing could not think of trespassing upon the kiudness of a perfect stranger ; if too late for Thompson, there were plenty of chop-houses at hand ; the unfortunate part of the business was, he had mude an ap pointment with a gentleman to call at ten o'clock. The goo;l-;ialureJ Jones, how. .ever, positively refused to allow so enter taining a visitor to withdraw dinnerless. Mrs. Jones joined in solicitations, the Misses Jones smiled bewitchingly ; and, at last Mr. Smith, who soon recovered from his confu siorv, was prevailed upon to oiler hisarm to one of the ladies, and take his place at the 'well furnished board.' " 'In all probability the family of Jones never passed such an evening before. Hook naturally exerted himself to the utmost to keep the party in an unceasing roar of j laughter, and make good the first impres sion. Thi mirth grew last and furious, when, by way of a coup de grace, he seated himself at the piano-forte, and struck olF into one of those extemporaneous elTusious which had filled more critical judges than the Joneses with delight and astonishment. Ten o'clock struck, and on Mr. Terry be ing announced, his triumphant trienJ wound up the performance with the ex t p'.unalory stanza : ' 'I am very much pleased with )our fare, Your cellar' as prime as your cook ; - My fricnd'i Mr. Terry, the player, And I'm Mr. Theodore Hook!"

Now is the time for merchants, mechanics and others to adver tise. Yearly advertisements, with the nriviledze of changing frequently, is the best and cheapest plan. Cold Weather. The weather on Saturday, Sunday and Monday last, was unusually cold and windv. So much so, that cloaks and over coats were every where put into requisition. Had there been snow on the ground the temperature would have done credit to the coldest days of January. As it was, ice a half inch thick was formed during the day. Fortu nately, a high dry wind prevailed during the whole time, or we should have a sorry account to give of our fruit crop. Ky" S.vow Storm. Wednesday last was one of those days, not only out of season, but exceedingly unpleasant. During the forenoon it rained slowly, but toward eve ning it blew up a furious snow storm, whicn continued all night. The ground was covered, to the extent of three or four inches with snow, and there was some ap prehension that the gardens and fruit trees would suffer. The wind and the sun on Thursday, soon dissipated the snow, and things look again like spring. Gideon M. Shoop has been appoint ed Post Master ot Danville. Mr. Shoop will make a good and an obliging officer. It is a singular fact that every fifth Governor of Pennsylvania has been whig or federalist. This is another evidence, that there is "luck in odd numbers." 07 The late act exempting property to the value of three hundred dollars from levy and tale on execution, or distress for rent, received the Executive sanction. It goes into operation on or after the 4lh of July next, and applies to all debts con tracted after that date. U Militia Trainings. Frequent at tempts have been made by the legislature to abolish Militia Trainings, but without effect until the last session. On Monday, the day before the adjournment, an act was passed abolishing Militia Trainings in this state. Volunteer companies are encouraged and are to receive fifty dollars when organized, and a'.l able bodied nvn between the ages of 21 and 45 years, who do not uniform and equip themselves and join a volunteer company, are to pay a fine of 50 cents annu ally. Each county is to form a brigade. Training day was a great day, for politi cians and office hunters, and although thou sands will rejoice, there are many who will regret that these Battallion frolics will be uumbcred among the things that have been nCYEMX FROM TAVKKX LICENSES. Under the late act of Assembly, regula ting tavern licenses in Philadelphia City and county, it is estimated that the reve nue will bo one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars. Last year, under the old law, it amounted to only five thousand dol lars. There are said to be about COO licen sed taverns in the City and County, and about 1S00 beer shops, oyster cellars, &c, where liquor is sold without license. -These under the new act must all pay li cense, none less than fifty dollars and the highest 350. Admitting that nine hun dred will be discontinued by the act, the re maining fifteen hundred, will, at an average of $75, make up the sum of $125,000. It is surprising that the legislature did not long since, when enacting laws to tax the farmer, mechanic and merchant, think oP'beer shops an I tipling houses.

THE COAL TltADE The coal operators in Schuylkill county have still further extended ihe time for a re sumption of shipments, and will, we are as sured by the Milters' Journal, continue the suspension until the middle of the season, if it shall be uecesnary to secure and maintain fair iind reasonable priet'S. The quantity at Port Richmond is now reduced lo about 16, 000 Ions, while ihe quantity sent lo market from the Schuylkill region ihis season, falls short of Ihe supply to the same period last year full 98.000 tons Including this defici ency, after allowing the other regions all they claim, it will require an increase in the ship ments from tho Schuylkill region of at least 300,000 Ions, to supply the msirkct. There is, thcrefoie, every prospect lhal prices be fore the close of thf! season, will rule hi-jh, and while we sincerely hope that Ihe opera tors may secure what they with so tnurh jus tice demand, we look anxiously for an early resumption of trade. The shipments by non-subcribers continue on a small scale, but there is an uimsunl de cree of unanimity ami deleiminalinu anions those who have suspended as well as those engaprcd in other business dependent on the coal trade. The total shipments from the Schuylkill mines last week were 1 1.4 17 Ions ; for the correspondini week last year, they were 34,187 tons. Daily S'eics. THE VERDICT I.M THE lllNCimAK CASE.

All etToits used by the Government of France and Gieal Britain lo renew ihe arm istice between Sardinia and Austria had fail ed, and Inutilities would therefore be recom menced and carried on with great vigor on both sides. The latest accounts from Hungary state lhat the Impel iali.sts were not making much headway against ihe Magyars, as success had latterly crowned Ihe arms of iho latter, and the Austrinns had several times been beaten, with considerable loss. The proposal lo appoint the King of Prussia Empeiiorof Germany was tejectcd by the Frankfort Parliament. This unexpected de cision caused great excitement, and would, it was feared, lead to unpleasant consequen ces between Prussia and Austiia. The Republic of Palermo had rejected the constitution and proposals made by the King of Naples. The French and Biitish fleets were about lo withdraw, and the Sicilians were preparing for hostilities which would immediately ensue. The King of Naples would wi'h great diffi culty keep his throne, as a formidable insur rection was about breaking out in Calabiia, anil Iho Neapolitans were themselves un quiet. A French expedition of 12,000 men was ready to sail immediately should thu Aits trians set their foot on the Pontifical Stales- Elopement Extuaoiidinary.

Edwards returned last week with a consid erable mm of money. Mr. French lovins Mr. E. more than Mrs. F., and Mrs. E. thinking moie jicibaps of French than Ed wards, they conceived a plan of eloping, which was put in execution on Monday last, and both parlies came to Pot'sville, ns man and wife, obtained passage in Ihe morning train of cars, and started tor arls unknown. Mr. E., missing his wife, was immediately upon the nlerl, anil suspecting something of the kind had occurred, as they had been seen wending their way lo the Depot, took the ne cessary precaution by which to arrest the party. A telegraphic dispatch was sent to Reading and Philadelphia, pulling the police of those place upon the watch for the runua ways. They escupej detection.

We learn from the Scientific American, lhat Mr. W. Fru-hlich engineer in the navy-yard, nt Washington, has invented an upiaratns, w hich is railicidly sclf-actinv, to prevent railroad collisions. He lias executed an operative model, which de monslratcs that even in the event of two trains meeting at full speed, it will opeiate without thu help of engineer und firemen, and prevent a dangerous collision.

Only a week since, there wn an arrival at this city, of three hundred citizens of France, w ho wete seeking that repose in the quiet of our own well-regulated Government, which they could not enjoy amid the stormy and proscriptive spiril which has so long agitated heir own country. This band of emigrants, struck with the picturesque beauty of ihe place, and impressed with tho fertility of iho surrounding country and the healthfulness of the locality, have come to the conclusion lhat no place can be belter adapted lo I heir wants than Nauvoo. This company of emigrants is headed by the distinguished Cubel, who is detei mined to make this place a nucleus for emigration. It said I hut seven hundred, who belong lo the same association, are expected lo meet their fiieud here in a short time, and that thirty thousand, who are still in France, and w ho are said lo belong lo tin same brotherly fraternity, will emigrate and settle with iheir b,rethicu w ho arc already iu the United States, muter the flatleiing Expec tations that Nauvoo w ill be made the nucleus of Ihis emigration.
