l. Hnding on IN Sing Sing FFlS9n.-
The New York Tines has the following
account of the initiation Of Huntingdon
ii e Wall street forger, INTO the mysteries
of Sing Sing prison:
Huntington reached the prison last Fri
day evening after the convicis were lock-
ed up. and was shown 10 cell Tor the
nighl without any change in his toilet
On The following morning an officer rap
ped at his door and signiied that his P'e'-
ence was desired in the physician apart
mpnt, where he was provided with the
usual strip ID wardrobe. lie was then
conducted 20 the barbers shop, and he
submitted to the loss of his beard. This
occupied till ii o'clock, 4. NJ, and wheh
the usual dinner hour arrived he was ready
to Join his cOnfreres IN the dining room.
/, will be remembered that the Clerk
of the Conrt asked Huntington, after
Judge Capron had pronounced his SEN
tence, the usual question if he had any
mechanical trade, and was answered IN
the negalive. 1t seems that he was for
merly engaged, for three years, III the
furniture business, somewhere In Hudson
street, and on the strength of this he has
been assigned to The cabinet shop at the
prison, under the contract OF Mr.. Z. II.
( Woodruff. He is engaged in the simple
operation CT saving and planning boards,
which is a less intellectual employment
than dealing in notes in v oil street. Bat
there Is this about the will now have
the benefit Of the shavlngs.
When Huntington first arrived at the
prison he remarked, in the presence ct
the Deputy Sheriff and some of~the OIL
GERS, that ne knew what the prison regu-
IlalIons were, and intended to obey them.
One luxury he will be deprived of, and
that is tobacco; he has been III the habit
Of smoking fabulous number OF cigars
per diem, but the change will be likely to
prove beneficial Ia his health. His con
sttuion is said TO be much run down ana
his countenance looks careworn and bag
gard.

/ he who invented Brussels CarPeling or
| Gold Brocade. whom the masses have
reason to hold III regard. but he who fur
|nishes something useful to every body
! One of our government officials lately re-
turned from his mission in Brazil, tells a.
an anecdote that among the first enquiries
made OF him about his acquaintance with
our public men, was whether he knew
the American Chemist, Or. ]. G.. AVER,
WHO invented the Cherry PectorGl and
CafhartiC Pills. AS these articles more
particularly the Cherry Pectora ale in
general use in the cities Of South AmerI-
ca, they are the most prevalent represent
,atons of American products, and as many
thousands there as well as here, owe TO
them the recovery Of their health from
malignant diseases, it is not strange they
should hold the inventor in esteem, but 1t
is rather simple in them to suppose that
tie Doctor is the only man Of mark we
