The accessions on the Republican side are from those who hold the most advanced opinions upon reconstruction, suffrage and kindred questions. lO"Saturday last was a day of great Interest at Wa'Ahington.

It would make • no difference. There is one matter that I might prop erly Speak of here, and that is the se lection of a Cabinet. I have always felt that it would be rather indelicate to announce or even to consult with the gentlemen whom I thought of in viting to positions in my Cabinet, be fore the official pecihration of the re• snit of the election was Made, although I presumed that there was no doubt about what that declaration-would be. But after consideration I have come to the conclusion that there• is not a man in thc country who could be invited to a place in the Cabinet without friends of some other gentleman making an effort to' secure the position ; not that there would be any objection to the party named, but that there would be others etvhom they had set their hearts upon having in the place. I can tell that from the great number of requests i come to me t - iuvriting and oth erwise, for this particular person or that one, front different sets and delegations. if announced in advance, efforts would be made to- change my determination„ and; therefore, 1 have come to •he Voil elusion not to announce who 1 and go ing to invite to seats in' the Cabinet . until I s send in their names tb . the Sen ate for confirmation. HI say anything, to theta about it, it will -certainly not be more than two or three days pre viouS-4o—sending- in their names: think it well to make a public declar ation of this to the Committee, so that my intentions may be known." In departing from the usual custom of making a mere- jbrnia/ response_ to the official notification of his election, Oen. (Irani has accomplished a mun her of purposes He has announced the cardinal principles of his incoming-ad: ministration, viz : economy. rctreneh mod jaitynt roileetion trf the ccrenue, and piument the public debt. This announcement should give satist'action to dm country, and it does to the mem bers of the Republican party all over the land, while none rcedve it with dissatisfiction except the gold-gamb • lees and the repudiating Democracy. Ll I der a vigorous enforcement of these principles our debt will soon begin to decrease, and within the next, thirty years every vestige of it will be wiped out.

This season of fasting is observed by the Roman Catholicand 'Episcopal churches— bx,,the latter less strictly' - than by the for-' mer, and by the former not so severely as' it used to be in earlier times lmthe Ro man-Catholic-church,the nature of thn fi , • is prescribed by rule. The Protestant de nominations which recognize the season leave the manner of observance to indi vidual judgment. Nominally, only one meal a day is allowed by the Catholic pro scription, Wough a slight refection may be taken morning and evening, the quantity of food not to exetfed two ounces in the morning and eight ounces at night. No flesh meat is permitted to be eaten. But I modifications of- these rules are made in some countries where the climate or the habits of the •people render their obser vance injurious to health, and dispensa-' tions az frequently granted. in favor of particular persons, such as the'aged and in mothers nursing infants, bard-work ing labOrers, &c.

As an additiOrial 'item of interest, we reprint the following from the Baltimore Sun of the 13th inst. : The .9:enecke 029 e.— In the Or.: phone Court of this city, in the matter of the estate of Maria M. Stbneeke, deo'd, the executors of the will, •John R. Kelso, Jr., and Wm. A Stewart, lsgs., yester day filed the following sworn answer to the petition of Dr. Paul Se! unripe, of Pennsylvania, -praying the court to have what-purports'to be a later will of the de ceased, presented by himself, admitted to probate. The exechtohs. say.: "These re spondents admit that bitters testamentary were grantedlo them oil the estate of said Nfaridi[,Stenieke, deceased', but they deny . that said letters were grantiaLor or dered after the paper,-writings alluded to by the petitioner were presented itt' the Orphans' Court .of Baltimore, city. The facts of this case are are briefly these : The testatrix . departed this life in the city of Carlisle, on Thursday, January 28, 1809,. under circumstances whim], to say the least, were attended by grave doubt as to the cause of her death. She was in the enjoyment of her usual health on the even ing previohs„fanultry 27th., and had been in company. with the petitioner, who du :ring her residence in Carlisle, had been her.physiei an, and yetovithout a moment's warning, she is suddenly taken and in the coarse ~f a few hours departs this life, and this too at a time when, according to the testimony of =Lunt physicians, her brain, heart and lungs were in a healthy condition, and natural - causes of - immediz ate death could not be detected by a moat skillful post inorleln examihation of the body of deceased. After her : death, in the proserwe-of-witnessesra-lawyer-of-Carliil . (Mr. Miller,) whose name was proposed by the petitioner, was called in, and the papers of the deceased, found in her trunk were examined; the petitioner being prcs ent ail the while and expressing surprise at some of the legacies contained in said last will, which was found carefully wrapped, in her trynk, and- •which was committed to the care of Mr. John 11.. ltheem, a rerative of deceased; to he.de livered to your re , pondents in ,Baltimore. The petitioned accompanied Mr. Rheem, who also had charge of the body .of do censedi to .Baltimore, and knew that fir. Itheem would deliver the will to, your honorable ...court on Monday, Feb. Ist, 1869, and was also told that said wilt would be pi.oved on that day, and yet not one word. was said by petitniner at the Jlindine• of the will, carefully laid away in the truhk of deceased, Or to Mr. Rheem, who had it in his keeping until prdt'ed, about the existence of the paper writing, dated December 8, 1868, which the peti Lionel. now -sets up, and claims to lie the last will of said deceased. These respond ents .werV h both present in your honorable court when the will of November 17, 1868, was mrinitted to probate, and when your Hurlers fixed the penalty of the re spective bonds, and . approved their sure and,this respondent, William A Stew art, immediately signed and executed his bond. as executor ~f said deceased, his co executer, J: lielsp, 'Jr., having I , roviously left the court-room. This r , ...,pondelit, William A.-Stewart, on leav ing_ the court-room, met the petitioner and his counsel, Mr. Webster, ascending the steps, and saluted.Viern as he passed, and yet not one word Was. said about the paper-writing now offered as the I,,st will Of the deceased. - I,t, is true that your hon orable court appointed this respondent, William A. Stewart, collector of the es tate of the decenseil, bothering previous , ' ly granted letters testamentary to both of your respondents as executors of.said de ceased, On the following day your Hon ors very properly revoked the letters ad ,olligenduiaorid—a llowed—t-ho-laWs tamantary to stand as they„had been orig - lordly ordered. These respondents now aver that the paper writing exhibited by petitioner is not the last will of Maria M. Slonecke, deceased, nor is it her voluntary act. They object to admitting the same to probate: uFirst - --Because the 'signature - thereto appended is not the hand writing of said Maria M. Stenicke, deceased, IZZ "Second—Because said paper Is admit ted by the petitioner to be in his own handwriting, and:the names of the two subscribing witnesses thereto are admitted 'by him to be his own name and that of his father, and no others, be alleges, were present at tife making of said will. .Third.—Because if the signature . of said deceased, appended to said paper, was proved to be genuine, the same was tit). tained by fraud and by tho exercise of an undue - mfluenee over her by the petitioner who was her physician; and to whom ev• erything she possessed, was by said paper devised amtbcqueathed. ~F ourth.—Because, while memoranda can be found in the handwriting-of tho de ceased, showing that she may have con templated some slight changes or alters tions in her last will of .November 17 :613, nonelith 6o tountiwhich-L.Wiriff dicate any Such disposition of her proper ty as that contemplated by the said pipet , writing dated December 3, 1868. 'Fifth.—Because the raid petitioner presented a . check at a bank in Carlisle for llfty dollars and received payment of the same, and presented _ another check for one hundred and.eghty dollar at the National Mechanics' Bank of Baltimore, payment :of which was refused, both of said cheeks. being dated January 27; 1869, (the day be _fore hot. death,) and,both purporting to be. signed by deceased; and these respondents have reason to believe that both said cheeks and the paper-writing, dated comher 3,1868, were signed by the same person,. and simultaneously,. and that tho said signtitures wore not-those of the de ceased." =EI =SE ".91xth.—I3ecausi3 said petitioner, by: a paper called hy•him n contrabt for inar ring% has expressly - renonfieed the testatrix, if sho.were otherwise pVe., vented from doing so, the right,to dis pose of all her property as she saw pTopor WHIME Tii'BUY.—Carlishi has i3Oino. good atoros,afact that is well knoWn to lie peOplo froth the surrounding 'ciantry, who Visit our town to make their•pecessa ry purchases hero; We do not third:, n better soloetion-of 'gocids can bo found :dh Thiladolphia-or-New-Xork-upon.-the tail streets, or at more l'easbnable prices: WO wish to say' a word to, those of,,Our_ readers who visit Carlisle to buy goochq--- IYe' want thete •to ,make theirpurehasea julicicius way,, both,aa regards quality and•priee.'
