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.

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

Robbery.—About nine o'clock, last
evening, suspicion was aroused in the

thief, who, however, managed to make

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.
