Forney’s Press Stopped.

John YV. Forney, in a speech at Camden, Niew Jersey, on Oct. 27, made the following aunou ncement: “Now, gentlemen, I have a most melancholy announcement to make in this eonnection. It. is that the newspaper, the Press, is stopped—iny Press is stopped ! [Sensation.] I did not expect, ; n coming here, to be compelled to make this sorrowful announcement: but it is iieverth less the fact. Tlije I’ress has stepped— not tlie establishment, hut the single copy which the President of the United States takes—it is stopped. (Long continued shouts ol laughter.) I suspect 1 shall survive it. (R*> lU ‘,ved laughter.) I have no doubt I shall survive it. But it was a terrible blow. 1 do not think ever two cents created so much havoc before. But we shall recover; we shall get over it.
