How the Veteran Editor Forgave His Old Knamy and had Htna Released from Prison. (Louisville Argus I read witle a good deal cf interest an article in your issue entitled "Reminiscence! of the Marshall and Pope Families." I would like to supplement it with an incident relative to James Birney Marshall's arrest. I knew him well. He had started from Memphis to come to Louisville during the war, and was arrested here or near here on suspicion of being a spy, which suspicion I might mention, was utterly unfounded. He was hard up. of coutss, and as toon as h9 could get word out he sent for a friend In the Journal office, and expressed very naturally a desire to be released. "Ihere's one man can get you out in an hour," said his friend. "Who is it?" he asked. "George D. Prentice. He has great influence with General Boyle and all the Union authorities," was the reply. I suppose so," said Birney, "but Mr. Prentice and I have been bitterly opposed to each other for more than twenty years. He would se me rot here fcefore he would aid me." "No. Mr. Prentice will befriend any man who will ask him. He Is a kind hearted man, aa I know yery well. If you will authorize me, I will go to him at once and ask his Influence in your behalf." " 'Go for Heaven'a sake. I will die if I itay in this prison. Bnt I dread a refusal from my old political enemy. Go ahead.' "Well, the gentleman went to the Journal cöice and found Mr. Prentice at work. He said to him abruptly: " 'Mr. Prentice, Birney Marshall is in the military prison at Fifth and Green. He waa

arrr sled on suspicion of belog a spy, which is absurd. He is desperately hard up and in absdway. Can't you get him oat?' "Mr. Prentice took off his epsctacles, looked up at the gentleman for a moment acd (aid : " 'So Birney Marshall is in prison, and herd up, is he?' " 'Yes, be is. And he says he'll die if he has to stay there.' " 'Did he tsk yoa to come to me?' asked the old man, eyeing hiui keenly. " 'Yes. I told bim yoa had influence witti the authorities, and he begged me to see yen.' "Ihe old man mused for a thils and then said: " 'Birney Marshall bas been the bitterest ecemy I have had in Kentucky lor twentyfiveytars. There has b sen no time that he wonld not have done anything to break me down, and I would have done anything to get lid of him. Bothels In prison now. Stay here until I return.' And Mr. Prsntice tcck up his hit and walked out. "Ha was gone lees than an hour and returned. Handing a folded psper to the gentlenan, he taid: " 'This is an order for Mr. Marshall's reksse.' 'Sta'l I bring him here to tea you, Mr. Prentice?' " 'Yes,' eaid the old man, 'bring him here. I would like to see him.' "In a few minutes Birney was at liberty. He was told all the circumstances, and what Mr. Prentice eaid, and was decidedly affected. "I'll go and thank him," he said. They went np to the Journal office, and aa they entered tne editorial room, Mr. Prentice rose and walked to rar d his old time ens my. In a moment these old veterans of many a wordy battle had their arms alout each other, and the tears were falling down their cheeks. " 'It was an affecting sc3ne,' remarked the gentleman, 'and I retired, going down into the counting room.' - "In a few minutes Mr. Prentice and Marshall came in, and Mr. Prentice eaid to the cashier: " Mnd.-re Lynch, have yoa any money la the drawer?' " Yes eir,' was the reply. "'Please give Mr. Marshall one 'hundred dollars.' "The money was counted out and the two frier d3 who were once Buch bitter enemies, went off arm in arm. "Mr. Prentice didn't show up for a week,' said the gentleman, smiling; 'he and Birney Mersballhada royal old time. After that Bircey went away for a while, and I never saw him after."

The fifth annual War Congress of the Salvatic n Army was held at the Academy ot Music in New York, March 1'.'. About GOO of the oücers and oldiers of the Salvation Army took part. The greatest excitement prevailed. A sarcastic clergyman in a ministers' meet ing at Springfield, 111., predicted that a tims was coming when eveiyl;dy who took active part in a prayer meeting could demand pay for his services. He meant to hit the professional revivalists. Profeessr William H. Thomson says the lives of 15,CCO,C0O people in Turkey hang by a thread, because Mohamedana think it a duty to kill every Christian who fails to pay an escape tax. He wishes England to hold Egypt, in order that the Mohamedaa power may be broken. Bays a correspondent from Scotland: "The Salvation Army is dying out in Sootland.and for this chief reason, I believe, -that the churches are being warmed at the heart, and are waking and reaching out the hands of brotherhood and Christ to those masses from whom for so long they had gathered np their Skirts." Although Cambridge University is neirly fifty miles from London, nearly fifty Cam bridge students recently attended a meeting In London to see some of their former com rades ordained as missionaries, and the un precedented circumstance is said to be a re suit of the influence of Mr. Moody, whose work produced a permanent impresMon upon the religious sentiment of the Uai versity. All our watching must have reference to the coming of the Lord. In all things we must be diligent and faithful.to the end that we may not be ashamed before Him at Uli appearing.

"Let us therefore not sleep as do others, but let us watch and he sober. uranam. A correspondent says: "The training f converts is, in its place, quite as important as their baptism and reception into tne cnurcn. It is not affirmed that we demand too mush of them before baptism, but it is certain that we demand too little from and do too little for them after baptism. No church can be strong except those who have professed Christare traicedin Christian knowledge and activity. In order that they may be so trained theie must be systematic effort in that direction." Daniel Webster's Fees. Worcester (Mas?.) Spy. In view of the protracted trial in our Superior Court last week it is of interest to note the fees which Daniel wehäter received for bis services. For many years he kept a regular account of his professional receipts, and for two of those years the accounts have been published, in the nrst oi tne two, when he was about thirty-seven years of age. his receipts, omitting "several small affairs," amounted to $15.181. The number ci items, mostly against different clients, was 129. The largest charge was $2.000. There were twenty-four retainers In the year, amounting in the aggregate to $1,310. The largest was a "retainer in patent cases" of $150; bnt the most of the retainers were of ?1C0 and 50. The tecond published account covered the years 1S32 33, when Webster was nfty years old. The amount of receipts for this year was $3,212. but out of this is to be deducted ts.r as "Congressional pay." This leaves for his professional receipts $7,220. The largest fee this year waa $500. There were only forty-four items, and of these eighteen were retainers, amounting to $2 330. One of them was for 100 for "Dr. Nott'e patent causes." "A very poor year'a work," eavs Webster.

The Washington Critic of the 15th, reca'lirg the ftct that last n:ght was the twentieth anniversary of the shooting of Mr. Lincoln, gives tbe following interview with J. Harry Fotd, 6till in town here, who was in the boxeffice cf Ford's Theater the night ot the ascatenation: "Eooth, yon eee, as an actor and frienl of the house, had the full run of the place. Ha could go anywhere be wanted to. Is was the easiest thing in the world for him to find his way without hindrance and without difficulty to the President's box. Hs cime in once duricg the day. I told him that wa expected President Lincoln aud Gsneral Grant at the p!sy that night. I also told him that we were going to have these two distinguished men on one sids and General Lse on the other. Booth broke into a denunciation of Lee for having given up ths svord cf Virginia, wh'.ch he bad promised nevar to surrender. He, however, showed no unusual excitement." Did you see him whan he cams to the theater in the evening" ' Yee, be came in about s o'cloik. He steppfd at the box-office and chitted a few minutes. He laid a cigar stump on the lede in front cf him saying, with a laugh as he did so: 'He who would this stump displace, must meet J. Booth face to face.' " "When did you rext see him?" "After the shooting. We heard the shot in tte box oS;e, but paid no attention to it at first If you recollect, there ia a scans in 'Oer American Cousin in which 'Sir Elward Trer chard' puts a pistol to his head with snicidel intent. The pistol is wrenchel from his hand. We in the box otli:e thought that the pistol had cone crt accidentally, but the coise acd confusion which followed, and the remembrance that the attempted suicide did ret take place until the third act, made cs change our mind. I threw open the wicket looking from tne box office upon the stage. Booth was crouched on the stage with a knife in his hand. He was crouched upon his side. I sa him get cpacd run across tte stage, from the rear of which he made his escape. No, I did not hear the words, 'Sic semper tyrannij" They were used by Booth in the box. I do not think there is any doubt that Booth injured himself whtn he jumped from the box. I bal, in the absence of tbe man who tua&lly atter ded to such matters, arranged the box uiii:g the day. I had procured the loan o Hags from the Treasury Department and had fan eg in iront of the box a picture of Washii gton. Booth's spur caught in that picture. It was ripped down several inches." "When yea saw Booth crouched on the etsge did jou suspect what had ojcarrei?" "No, we thought there had been a fiht and that Booth was in it. We thought sone one had shot at him aud that he had drawn bis knife in self defense. As sooa as we learned the facts, acd we were bat a short tirce doiDg so, I came to the conclusion that 1 have evtr since held that Booth intended that knife for General Grant." "In rushing from the building, did not Eooth injure some one else?" "Yes, he struck at Withers, the lsader of the orchestra, who had gone under the stage attheclcse of the act, and who encountered Booth. The latter had the knife in his hand when he etrnck Withers, but be did not intend to stab him. He held the blade of tbe knife latterallyor perpendicularly. Withers' clothes were cut throujh, end an incision was also made in the skin. When Booth got t3 the loise be with the but end of the pistol knocked the man down who had the animal. The man who brought the horse to the appointed place was Spangler, our stage carpenter, fccangler was a great admirer of Booth, and wc Id do anything for him. That he knew nothing of Booth's intention was evident rem the fact that he gave the horse to another man. h'pangler, however, had to spsnd three years in the Dry Tortugas." "How long after the shooting was it before the President was removed?" "About ten minutes. He wa3 taken to 51G Tenth street. The house was the home of the Peterson family. It is now occupied by the Washington SentineL" "Were yea suspected of complicity in the crime? ' "Ye?, there was tome talk of itatCrjt; but the examination showed that it was unfounded. We were held only as witoesjes." "Yes," continued Mr. Fjrd, "there was the greatest excite meat in the city, and it seemed as thoagh it would never qiiet down. The attack on Seward and Johnson, tbe latter at the old Kirkwood House, on the corner cf Pennsylvania avenue and Twelfth street, added to the crazs of the peip'e. It was the wildest time lever saw or ever expect to tie." Tlie President's Proclamation Regarding the Winuebego, Sioux or Crow Creek Reservation. Washington, April 17.

At a diFcussion by homoeopathic physicians in ew York upon the cholera, one speaker said that rigid adherence to sanitary laws would lessen the dangers of ail contagious diseases.

This gives yon the pulp only.A Good Appetite always accompanies good health, and an absence of appetite is an indication of something wrong. The loss of a rational desire for food ia soon followed by a lack ot strength, for when the supply of fael is cut crT, the fire burns low. At this season marly every one needs something to revive and sharpen the appetite, which is lost in the debilitating effects of changing weather. If it is neglected tbe system gets into a low state, and is especially liable io severe attacks of disease. The universal testimony given oy those who have ued Hood's Sarsaparilla, aa to its great merits in restoring and sharpening the appetite, in promoting healthy action of tbe digestive organs, and as a purifier of tbe blood, constitutes the strongest recommendation that can be urged for any medicine. Thoee who have never used Hood's Sanaparilla should surely do eo this season. It will certainly benefit you. "During the spring and summer I was troubled with biliousness and loss of appetite. I was advised to try Hood's Sarsaparill a, and did so with the best results. I have recommended it to a great many of my customers, to whom it bas given entire satisfaction." E, R. Nowi-axd.

Dr. D. Kennedy. Rondout, sr. : Deat. Sir Until recently I have been f or tar? years a sufferer from Salt Rheum.

Oaa thiuz i sure, however, 1 was none the better for all the medicine they gsve me. The piiutulan l unsightly d'u-eae mude eont.aual progress, ua.il I began to fear I should neverget rid of it. By means of one of tuoe accidents that often result in bomuth b!e -imr I had ray auentlou called to your FAYOP.ITE XKMEUY, whi. h I wa. told wou.d surely do me good.
