The fRF.ss. Forney's Press appeared,
last week, in an entirely neW dress of beau
tiful type. The Press is one of the best daily
papers published, and is gaining a wide cir
culation. -
Ick-Cream Festival. The ladies of the
Baptist Church in this place, will give an
ice cream festival, at the house of Mrs. M.
A. Frank, on Friday evening, February
22d the proceeds to be applied to the pur
chaw of a Sunday-School Library. All are
invited to attend. .
The Weather. During the past week
the air was warm and pleasant in this region,
and under its genial influence the snow has
issrWeared very rapidly. The prospect for
ia early spring is now quite flattering ow
ing, no doubt, to the prognostications of the
ground-hoe, as some persons would have us
believe. - v
More Snow. Last night, (T iesday,) at
about 10 o'clock, snow commenced falling in
this region, and this morning, as we go to
press, has reached a depth of 10 inches, and
continues to fall rapidly. ' We do not, how
enr, anticipate that it will lie long, as the
air has been unusually mild for some ten
Jays past. Ahem! Can't we tell the re
sult better next week?
Advertising and Gratitude. A cele
Iralfd wholesale merchant in England, has
presented the proprietors of the London
Megrapk with a printing press which cost
$25,000 as a teten of appreciation. In do
ing so he accompanied the the gift by a let
ter which said : "In your paper, by jndicious
advertising, I first Wilt the foundation of a
fortune and in your parwr, by judicious ad
vertising, I have amassed the fortune which
enables me to offer this testimony of regard
and eood will." Business men should re
lueuiber this fact, and profit thereby.
A Break Up. On Thursday of last
week, the streams in this county commenced
t rise rapidly, caused by the molting of the
snow mi lor the warm rays of the sun, and
) Friday the ice broke up and run out. A
considerable q lanticy of timber, we are
told, went adrift in places. This loss will
ie sonsiMy felt by many. At present the
river is free from ice, except such portion
m was shoved on shore during the break-up.
Should the weather continue moderate for a
fVw days, we may expect to see our Rafts
men engage in constructing their "crafts"
preparatory to a trip down the river.
Scientific Lecture. Our readers will
not forget the correspondence, published in
our Ix-t paper, between a number of our
prominent citizens and II. B. Swoope, Esq.
Mr. Swoope's Lecture on "Chemical Force,"
comes off in the Court House, on Tuesday j
evening nest. It will, no doubt, be one of
ihe most interesting and entertaining Lec
tures ever delivered in this place. 31 r.
Swoope has a fine Chemical and Philosoph
ical apparatus i thoroughly acquainted
with the subject, and is an eloquent speak
er. The proceeds are to be divided between
the funds for the erection of the two new
churches in town, so that every citizen Is in
terested. Tickets 'are being sold at all the
places of business.
A Wonderful Cat. There is a centle
man in this city, we repress his name out of
respect for his modesty, who owns a most
wonderful cat. The animal came to his house
nearly two years ago, apparently astray,
without home or friends, and it first attract
ed his attention by its strange freaks when
ay one would play on the piano. It would
tun under the instrument the moment the
ttusic commenced, dance around apparently
in the greatest ecstacy, at the same time ut
tering a most peculiar and plaintive sound
ju.uch resembling the warbling of a certain
bird. The gentleman would sometimes play
an accompaniment to the piano on a flute,
and this at the first sound would almost set
the cat wild, causing it to increase the pecu
liar sound that it always made when the pi
ano was being performed on. And in a very
?ncrt time it seemed to have fully learned
the accompaniment, and now can imitate so
'ell that in the adjoining room it would de
ceive any one into the belief that a flute was
ctuHy being played upon. This wonder
ful animal ean laugh and sneeze as much
like a child as can a veritable child itself.
klere n mn7 other wonderful qualities
bot this canning little wonder, but we re
train from taxing the credulity of our read
ers. To the incredulous, we say, go and
we cat for yourselves. Cairo Democrat.

It is rumored in Congressional circles, that tho
President is ready to meet Congress h:ilf-way on
the reconstruction question. A few intra tarns of
the impeachment screw, may induce him to eorae
over entirely. Although not deeply impressed as
to the Sincerity and reliability of Mr. Johnscm,
yet wetfanntfthelp but look upon thisofTjrto moet
Congress half-way as indicative of fatfin 4 eourago
on his part, and a better prospeot for the settle
ment of the -reconstruction question at aa early
day. .- ! ... ; . ,
A reward of $5,500 is offered by the Treasury
department for the .arrest .of W. A. Lee, alias
George Parker, an alleged defaulter: '
Sanford Conoyer, the detective, who fabricated
toe testimony implicating Jeff. Da, is with the
Lincoln assassination, has been found guilty of
perjury. ' - -
The Supreme Court of the District of Columbia
in the case of the application of Col. Magruder
for admission te the bar, decided that the test
oath of 1863 was constitutional, proper and ne
cessary. Only a doubt has been raised by a ma
jority of the Supreme Court of the United States
deciding against it, but in opposition to what has
been said, namely, that it was an ex post facto
law, and the opinidn of the Court was mmiito-
ry. Judge Carter said the questions before that
and this Court were different. In the ease before
the Snpreme Court of the United States, the ques
tion was as to an existing member of the bar ; in
the case before this court, the question w n as to
original admission to the bar. The opinion of
the Supreme Court of (he United States was not
analagous or applicable to this case. It is a com
mon law rule that courts shall determine who
may become members of the bar. It was an in
herent right for them to regulate their rules of
practice. Congress had not only affirmed the com
mon law power, but made it the duty of courts to
enforce it. The majority of the Supreme Court
of the United States condemned the rule, while a
minority, or less than a majority, counselled its
support, leaving the court of this District to form
its own opinion. In fact, the jndgment of the Su
preme Court is reduced to an opinion of justices.
The question was tie involved in political contro
versy that it should be referred to the political
power of the nation. It was a question of legis
lation, and not for adjudication. The motion for
admission and resoinding of the rule Was there
fore denied.
While it is denied that Grant is for the Presi
dent's plan, it is asserted with great positiveness
that he favofs Ho plan that does not recognize
the rebellion as treason, and provide fur punish-.
ing leading traitors. It is also said that he does
not faver the proposed military governments, and
that he stands oa the ground that nothing less
than the Amendment should bo adopted.
It has been ascertained Nebraska has about
100,000 inhabitants, and this number incrsasing
rapidly. Gen. Thayor. one of the Senators elect,
was on the floor when the House pas-ed the bill
for the admission of the new State over the veto,
and received the congratulation of its friends.
The Senate Committee on Foreigh Rotations re
ported adversely to the nomination of Senatot
Cowan as Minister to Austria
The contract to supply he Government print
ing office with paper was awarded to J. Davis, of
York, Pa. It covers eight hundred thousand dol
lars. Bids were reoeived from Boston, New York
and leading western firms.
The League Island Nary Yard bill has been fi
nally passed by the Senate, and now goes to the
President for signature. A groat effort was made
to defeat it.
The bill relating to the funding of the Com
pound Interest notes was passed after a short ex
planation ftora Mr. Sherman, its originator. As
amended it provides for the funding of the com
pound interest notes on three per cent, certifi
cates, not more than one hundred millions of
which shall be outstanding at one time.
The larga.and daily increasing number of lead
ing rebels in Washington, is exciting some atten
tion. If they have been drawn hither by the
President's new plan of reconstruction, and ia
the hope of seeing it succeed, they have -boen
doomed to disappointment for it is evidoot that
neither Congress nor the Northern people favor
it; and, if the action of the North Carolina Leg
islature is to be an indication, the South will also
rejeot it. It is a truly disgusting exhibition, to
eAery loyal mind, to see the leaders of au unsuc
cessful rebellion swarming at tho capitol of the
nation they sought to destroy, for the purpose of
dictating the terms upon which they shall be rep
resented in Congress.
The House passed a bill to equalize bounties of
soldiers and sailors. It is a substitute for the law
of last session, and gives each soldier who has
served any time eight and one-third dollars per
month, with a deduction of all Federal, State and
local bounties which he may have received. All
of the Eastern men voted against the bill on the
ground that soldiers from their States would re
ceive nothing, as they had been paid already
such large bounties by those States. The westorn
men voted for the bill for the contrary reason.
A Prize-Winner's Sensation. A Nw
York contemporary, in course of a descrip
tion of the payment of prizes drawn at the
late Union Home School lottery, says that
the winner of the prize of $10,000 in green
backs, an old man, named John F. M'Laugh
lin, presented himself and informed the man
agement that he was "frightfully poor" and
had been working for the United States Gov
ernment for forty years as a journeyman sad
dler, and that he bought the lucky ticket in
acordance with his wife's wishes. Mrs. Mc
Laughlin had a dream some time ago, in
which she saw her better half a rich man,
dwelling in marble halls with vassiis and
serfs at his side, and from this posture she
argued, that her better half would do well to
purchase a ticket in the lottery, although
Mr. McLaughlin, like all the rest of the
ticket buyers, had very strict religious scru-
Eles stubborn facts which were overcome
y the strenuous exertions of Mrs. M. The
aged McLaughlin received the check for the
$10,000 with a tremor of delirious joy, and
to the beholders his excitement seemed to
verge on the unnatural.
A down-east editor in describing a coun
try dance, says : "The gorgeous strings of
glass beads glistened on the heaving bosoms
of the village belles, like polished rubies
resting on the delicate surface of warm apple-dumplings."
The Legislature of Arkansas has made an
appropriation to replace the funds of the
United States deposited in that State, at the
time and stolen when secession cook place.
This looks like genuine reconstruction.
The appointment of Cowan, as Minister
to Austria, was rejected by the Senate.

B-The Baton Rouge Advocate says a
merchant of that city was astonished lately
at receiving a bill of lading,in which, among
other articles, was the item, "ten boxes torn
cats." It proved to be a Cincinnati abbre
viation for "tomato catsuD." Did he "rel

BuConcerning Barnum" and his Con
gressional aspirations a Connecticut paper
says that sewing a monkey's head and a

performance well calculated to make a man

statesmanship. Rather severe on the great
showman.
6TThe New York World scolds the
Connecticut Democrats for endorsing the
eight-hour movement at their recent State
Convention. It says this isn't Democracy.
The Democratic practice used to be, fifteen

payment. Does the World want to return

the proprietor, of Pulmonary Consumption, whm
it had assumed its most formidable aspect, and
t 1 . , . . . ..
wucu sueeuy ueam appeared to be inevitable.
His physicians pronounced his case incurable,
when be commenced the use of this simil but
powerful remedy. His health was restored in a
very short time, and no return of the disease has
been apprehended, for all the svmntoms nuiVklv
disappeared, and bis present weight is more than
two hundred pounds.
Since his recovery. he has devoted hi attention
exclusively to the cure of nonnumntinn mil thm
diseases which are usually complicated with it.
bbu tne cures enectea by bis medicines have been
very nuraerousand truly wonderful. Dr. ScbencH
makes professional visits to several of the larrer
cities weekly, where he has a large concoarse of
patients, and it is truly astonishing to see Door
consumptives that have to be lifted out of their
carriages, and in a few months healthy, cobust
persons, ur. ecnencK s f ulmooro Syrup,- Sea
Weed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills are generally
all required in curing consumption. Full direc
tions accompany eacb, so that any one can take
them without seeing Dr. Schenck. but when it is
convenient it is best to see him. He gives advice
free, but for a thorough examination with his
Respirometer bis fee is three dollars.
Please observe, when purchasing, that the two
likenesses of the Doctor one when in the last
stage of consumption, and the other as he now is.
in perfect health are on the Gouernment stamp.
Sold by all druggists and dealers. Price $1 50
