NW Forney's Press, in speaking of the
recent decision of the Supreme Court of
Pennsylvania, in relation to the disfran
chisement Of deserters; says it does not
invalidate the act of Congress or the re
cent act of the State Legislature, pro
hibiting men who abandoned the nation
al flag in the hour of peril from exercis
ing the right of suffrage. It throws an
obstacle in the way of the prompt and
rigid enforcement of those laws, howev
er, which can probably be overcome, to
a large extent, by increased vigilance
and by a prosecution of all who attempt
in defiance of existing statues, to parti
cipate in the affairs of a Government
they were unwilling to defend.
gip On Saturday the 2d inst,, a man
named Nicholas Firesinger, residing at
Codorus Foundry, Codorus township,
York county, accepted a proposition to
drink ten glasses of lager beer in ten
minutes if a comrade paid for thetn. l
The lager beer was produced and drank
within the time specified, but immediate
ly thereafter he complained of illness,
when he was carried into a building at•
tached to the foundry, and left lie until
the following morning, when he was
found dead.
tar It is said that Gov. Curtin will
Boon issue a proclamation convening
an extra session of the State Legislature
at an early day, for the purpose of acting
upon the Constitutional amendment
proposed by the Reconstruction Com•
mittee and adopted by Congress. Gov.
Curtin has issued a circular letter to the
Governors of other loyal States, request
ing similar action on their part, and it
is quite probable that' the amendment
Rill be ratified by a large number of the
States during the summer. .
Vallandigham proposes to con
tinue on the stump until victory perches
on the copperhead banners. If he holds
to his purpose, and life is vouchsafed to
him, he will excel Methuselah as much
in longevity as he now does Ananias in
falsity. What a pretty Wandering Jew
he will make! Imagine him a hundred
or two years hence, making his appear
ance like another Rip Van Winkle, at
political meetings, and in his impudent
manner shouting, " I glory in the name
of copperhead."
Sr It is no longer fashionable "at
court " to speak of the late troubles in
this country as a rebellion. Mr. Secre
tary Seward, in his .official announce
ment of the death of General Cass,
speaks of his "exalted patriotism at a
recent period of political disorder." The
Baltimore American expects next to
hear the most terrible and groundless
rebellion on record spoken of as " an
unfortunate family quarrel," or, as Mrs.
Partington would express it, "a slight
constipation of our internal relations."
SW Col. John W. Forney. at present
the most prominent candidate for Unit
ed States Senator to succeed Cowan,
made an eloquent and masterly speech
of two hours' duration on Thursday last
in the Court House at Lebanon, Pa.,
which was crowded with ladies and gen
tlemen. This oration may be regarded
as the opening of the campaign in Penn
sylvania, and will add much to his intel
lectual fame.
fir The - President reports, by a
special message,.that the Secretary of
State has transmitted a copy of the
amendment to each State Governor;
but he takes care to state that it was
simply a ministerial act, and is,. not to
be construed as an approval of: the
amendment by the executive. As the
President was not asked to approve of
it, it was quite unnecessary for him to
mention that he disapproved of it.
er The Supreme Court of Pennsyl
vania, decided on the 20th, three to two,
that the judge of elections could not re
fuse a man's vote until he had been tried
and convicted of desertion. Justices
Read and Agnew thought that the
judges of election could determine the
whole question.

'The Eastern newspapers are dis
cussing the question of salaries, and
have generally come to the conclusion
that the highest salary paid to any one
man in New England is that received by
the agent of the Salisbury Woollen Mills,
at Newburyport—i 3 L 5,000 a year. The
lowest salary in New England is gener
ally believed to be that received by a
clergyman, who stated at a recent relig
ious convention in Boston that his pay
for last year's preaching consisted of a
new hat and a bushel of apples, but now
ho was more fortunate, as he was getting
825 a year.
