Postmasters iu the interior of the State are earnestly solicited to act as agents for us in procur ing subscribers. We will allow them the usual per centage in such cases. E. H. PUGHE, Proprietor and Publisher Do You Want a Goon Paper?— If you do, the Daily Press will suit yon. It contains the Telegraphic News from all parts of the world, furnished by Mr. D. H. Craig, the most experienced news agent in the couutry, and his agents at various points; also, the fullest legislative reports, market re ports, local news, general news, and editorials on subjects of public interest. And the price is only Frvs Dollars per annum, in advance 1 Who will do without a real good, live paper, when it can be got so cheap? Take the Daily Press. It is emphatically the People's Organ. Other dailies are $lO per year. The Daily Press is only $5. Its Tele graphic News is worth the price nlone. Sgk„TiiE City and Country subscribers of the Daily Press will confer a lavor on us, if they will notify us, immediate!y, when their paper fails to reach them. We have had a great deal of trouble in securing efficient carriers, but think now that the routes are carried promptly and correctly. If they have not time to notity as in person, they can easily drop us a line through tlie post-office. Do not allow a day to ' pass by without get ting your paper, but notify us at once and we will see that it is properly de- Jivererd. Change in the Calendar.—The Chronicle and Sentinel has attempted an improvement of the Calendar. Its issue of yesterday was everywhere dated "November 31st.” Perhaps the fact that they observed Thanksgiving Day, and that the Daily Press was the only City paper that did not observe it, has confused them tip there, and led them to believe that there was one day more in the Calendar than they knew any thing o£ We think likely, however, that our venerable cotemporary across the way has been sending too many “ pack ages" of corn, rye, or juniper, ta o-ur up town neighbor, which caused it to see more dates in the “ Conslitutionali.it Almanac ” than there really is in it. Send your cotemporary more almanacs, and fewer packages, in the future, neighbor. They will have a better effect. Recorder's Court.—The three Graces of the day previous were super ceded yesterday by three rather grace less fellows, that is to say, two of them were that way muchly, one having appropriated a pair of boots lrom the first and sold them to the second. Nos. 2 and 3 quarrelled about it, and No. 1 lost one of his hats in the fracas, but fortunately, had another. So the Re. corder dismissed No. 1, and gave No. 2 and 3 the privilege of paying $3 and costs each. Blobb’s Band.—Biobbs informs us that, having at a great outlay, come into possession of some new and elegant musical instruments —such as timbrel, triangle, violin, coronet, and the newest of all, comli-o net—his band is ready and willing to serenade all young mar ried persons who are not so lost in mat rimonial joys as to forget editors, when the cake and wine are being distri buted. Mr. Atkinson’s Office.—We have been requested to state that, for the present, Mr. 8. A. Atkinson, Agent of the United States and European News Association, can be found at Quinn s Literary Depot, on Broad street, oppo site the Daily Press Office. Obstructions of Streets.—There have been several complaints about obstructing the streets and sidewalks lately, with boxes and bales of inerehan. dize, awning signs, etc. The City authorities requests us to call the atten tion of merchants and others to the ordinances on the subject, and to suggest that they be strictly complied with, as it will save trouble to all parties. Tub Markbt.— Yesterday morning the attendance of country wagons upon the Lower Market was very general. Up to this time, comparing the otiier seasons, but few turkeys have been brought hither, and the prices demand ed are really exorbitant, as, for an or dinary gobler, one is expected to fork over the sum of three dollars aud a half. Wild ducks are plentiful aud command ready sale—“ English,” one dollar and twenty fire cent! per pair, and “Summer,” three for a dollar. Grown fowls sell at forty cents per Jicad. Sausages can be purchased at from twenty five to thirty cents per pound. Turnips are in abundance , aud as to fair beef there is no end, which latter remark applies with stun ning force to the largely increased num ber of hucksters, who, witli their carts, so hlocka e the and causeways adjacent to ihe Market,-that they may properly be regarded as nuisances.

Baker, desiring him to cash a note for sixty dollars, represented to have been given by the Hon. James T. Gardiner. Mr. B. thought the note a little doubtful in appearance, yet upon the assurance of the sharper that he was iu the employ of Mr. G., cashed ihe note to the extent of forty dollars, the forger promising to call on the morrow for the balance, which he failed to do. The note on presentation at the National Bank, was refused recognizance. The fellow’s name is Craft, and serni occasionally passes himself off as an attache of that sterling journal, the Charleston Courier. Hand him round. Robbery.—About nine o'clock, last evening, suspicion was aroused in the minds of certain parties by a noise heard in the store of Simon ,t Bros., near Washington street., on Broad, that a robbery was being committed. Meas ures were at once taken to capture the thief, who, however, managed to make good his escape, taking with him arti cles of clothing, etc. He had, doubt less, been locked up in the store. The old moral: Before you close your doors and retire, be sure that your stores are searched thoroughly.

He wag an aged and faithful soldier of the Cross, and has, we doubt not, gone to the •‘home in the skies.’’ County Court. —The semi-annual session of the County Court commences to-morrow (Monday) morning, at 10 o’clock. Barrow says that he does not pre tend to do Glazing with the speed of a dancing master; but having served his apprenticeship in a regular painting and glazing establishment, and followed the business twenty five years, can always perform any work entrusted to him, iu his line, in a perfect and satisfactory manner. He can still he found at No, 48 Jackson street, ready to serve cus tomers with any size glass the market can iurnish. 3teodf Scuooi, Books. —The series of school books published by John P. Morton & Cos., of Louisville, Ky., are highly com mended by Professor Lipscomb, of the University of Georgia, whose letters on the subject will be found in another column. The Professor has no little experience in education, and is cer tainly well qualified to judge of the merits Os school books. We commend his letters to the attention of ull inter ested.

Hett says when you meet with profossional Glaziers, you will find that most of them can do more or less bragging. For instance, each will say that he call do rooro than another. Mr. Hett says that he has put in at Mr. Goodrich’s Sash Factory as many as fourteen hun dred lights in ten hours, with a little boy as an assistant. Every and any one who has glazing to be done—and done well and quickly—send for him at once. Any one doubting his ability to put in as many lights in the time above mentioned, can gat such a bet as they may wish. Give him a call at 117 Uoynolds street, between Jackson and Campbell. * iio2s-12| 8)i (Ectcgrnpl). [A’rom the United Stale e and European Telegraphic Metre Aceociation.] Rtipomu m THE DAILY PRESS. ■> ' v icy iz FBOM WASHINGTON. Wa*hinoton, Dec. 1. The Congressional Committee, to in vestigate cotton aud sugar frauds in New York and other Custom Houses, will, on Monday, ask to have the seal of the secrecy removed. It is said that high ofticials wilt be involved in plun dering the South. The Baltimore American of this morning says : “ We Rave full confi dence that the United States and Eu ropean News Association will be able to furnish fuller, more varied, aud more satisfactory reports of new3, foreign, domestic, and commercial, than the As sociated Press has ever attempted." Judge Advocate Holt publishes, this morning, his defence against the charges of corrupting and suborning wit nesses in the trial of parties charged with complicity in the assassination of Mr. Lincoln. Washington, Dec. I—P.M. Great preparations are making for a Radical demonstration on Monday. Southern loyalists are jubilant over it. General Walbridge, of New York, pre sides. Hamilton, of Texas, makes a speech of welcome; also,Judge Carter, of the Supreme Court. At a formal meeting to-day, the entire press of Washington Bevered their connection with the New York Associated Press, and ioined the United States and European News As sociation. The President’s Message and reports were mailed to-day to all agents of the United States and European News Association throughout the country. The War Department has just re ceived the report of Gen. Sheridan, who was sent to investigate charges of in humanity against officers at the Dry Tortugas. He says the conduct of the officers have been grossly and malicious ly misrepresented. The charges ema nated from prisoner Grenfel for selfish purposes, and to secure release. Gen. Sheridan visited the cells and found all the prisoners clean and orderly, showing that care and vigilance had been exercised by the commanding officers for the comfoit and well being of the prisoners, who receive the same rations as enlisted men, and are neatly and comfortably clothed. The work on the islands is light. Two checks, given to West Point Cadets before, were presented to-day at the Treasury lor payment. The Secre tary of War stopped the payment, and ordered the checks cancelled, as the Cadets joined the Confederate forces. The public expenditures for the last fiscal year were $150,000,000 less than the year preceding. FROM CANADA.” Tin; Fenian I’risoners. Toronto, Dec. I—P.M. Judgment was delivered this afternoon in the case* of Col. Lynch, Father Mc- Mahon, and Messrs. Slavin and School. There were not many persons in Court, and no unusual interest in the cases ot the prisoners yvas manifested. In the case of McMahon, the Chief Justice ex pounded at length under which the pris oner was tried. After disposing of the objections raised by the prisoner’s counsels on the indictment, his Lordship read the evi dence given at the trial, showing the prisoners connection with Fenians, and stated after careful and deliberate con sideration, he agreed with the learned Judge, who tried the case, that although the prisoner's came over with Fenians ostensibly for the purpose of administer ing spiritual consolation to wounded, he was aiding and assisting raiders, and was equally guilty with them. The affidavits put in by the prisoner were then read and a neyv trial dwelt on. In conclnsion, his lordship stated that he was of the opinion that all the grounds taken by the prisoner’s counsel for granting the rule had failed, and that had it been granted, it would merely have been wasting time and words to no purpose, as the Court would not have made it absolute, and, alter the most careful consideration, he could arrive at no other decision than refuse the rule. Mr. Justice Hagerty then delivered judgment in the case of the Queen vs- Lynch, having recapitulated the objec tions of the prisoner’s counsel seriatim. He stated that he perfectly concurred in the views which had been expressed by the Chief Justice, and having devoted much care to tbe study of all the differ ent points involved and objections raised, he had come to the decision that no sufficient.grounds had been made out to warrant the Court granting the rule nisi. Mr. Justice Morrison delivered judg. ment in the case of the Queen vs. School. He stated that he perfectly concurred with the learned Chief Justice and Jus tice Hogarty, and that he had no doubt on the subject, and must, therefore, refuse the rule. Mr. McKenzie, Queen’s counsel, then moved for leave to appeal. The Chief Justice said that the Court had anticipated such motion, and, having refused the rule, they did not consider that they would be warranted in granting tbe application. Chief Justice Richardson delivered a judgment in the Court of Common Pleas iu the case of the Queen vs. Stephens—to grant the role nisi on the grounds as those urged by tho learned brethren in the Queen's Bench.

A Happy Issue.— We are rejoiced to know that the Western and Southern press have determined, with probably entire unanimity, to relieve themselves of the tyranny and thraldom of the New York Associated Press and set up in business for themselves. It is surprising that they have borne the imposition so long, and we congratulate them upon ceasing to be “hewers of wood and drawers of water” for the New York Press It *ll take a little time to get things to working smoothly, hut we confidently promise a great and speedy improvement in our telegraphic reports. —Louisville Courier, Nov. 29.
