The ORIGINAL PoLYoRAMA.-This fine
exhibition, which opens at Crescent City
Hall on Tuesday next, has been doing
an immense business wherever exhibited.
We clip the following from the Cincin-
natl Enquirer:
Goodwin & Wilder's gigantic Polyo-
rama of the War opens at Smith 4 Nix
on's Hall on Thursday evening. 1t is
now doing an immense business in Cleve-
land, and the following article in the
Cleveland Herald speaks well for the
liberality of the proprietors:
The Polyorama of the War, now eX-
hibiting to crowded houses at the Acad-
envy of Music, is certainly the finest en-
tertainment we ever had in Cleveland.
| This exhibition has Just finished most
successful engagement in Pittsburgh,
where for three weeks the excitement
was so intense that hundreds were
nightly turned from the doors. While
in that city, the proprietors rendered a
benefit to the Subsistence Committee,
and the following card of acknowledge
ment we clip from the Pittsburg ChrOni-
Gle:
- SUBSISTENCE COMMITTEE AND THE
PoLYoRAMA.
GO PITTSBURGH, Jan. %, 1868.
"' MesSrS GoOdlcin d Wilder:
90 GENTLEMEN,-It is with the great
est pleasure that we acknowledge the
receipt of one hundred and FIVE dollars,
the proceeds of the exhibition of your
grand historical paintings, entitled The
Polyorama of the War for the benefit
of the sick and wounded soldiers of the
Union army. Neither would we forget
to acknowledge the valuable services of
the whole corps attached to the POlyo-
rama, so cheerfully and kindly offered.
"'We are more sensible of our pleas
ant obligations to you from rhe fact that
you are only temporary residents of our
city, and not personally interested in
any of its benevolent operations, but
contributing to the comfort and happi
ness of the patriotic sons of the Repub
lie.
" 1t may net be improper for US tc
soy that the -artiets of the painting have
reflected great credit upon themselves
and done justice to the noble and i'm.
portant subject which they have, with SC
much beauty and fidelity, portrayed Oh
the canvas.
1--WE would most cheerfully recon-
mend the Polyorama to the universal
patronage of all who love the cause o.
our country and desire to witness g
beautiful portrayal of the heroic deeds
of its defenders
"' Yours truly,
JOSEPH ALBREE.
GO HENRY NJ. ATWOOD.

George W. Black, Of Mercer county, has got
himself into difficulty, BY attempting to com
nit rape upon a daughter Of Mr.. Fowler,
living in the lower end Of this county, in the
township Of Drurysa Ths reverend scoundrel
went to Mr.. Fowler's house. when all their
mates were absent except this daughter, and
attempted to commit . rape. The girl got
away from, him and ran into the garden, and.
several persons approaching, she was rescued
from the libertine. ri He was arrested and
brought before Messrs;i eury and Simpson,
Justices Of the Peace, who bound him over
in the sum of $3.50 to appear at the next
term Of our Court, in. September. Much
complaint is manifested on account of the
smailness of the bond. The Rev. Mr.. Black
is one Of those ransing Coppsrheads who
have denounced the Government, and every
thing IL has done, ds Unconstitutional from

EThe Judge Advocate! General has been
making some rulings in regard to exceptions
under the CONSUMPTION law. First. The 'only
son Of an aged or infrn parent" must actu.
ally support them by his labor and not BY his
property merely to be exempt. The fourth
son of widow, whose three other sons are
in service, is exempt, if he be needed FOR her
support. The son Of widow whose other
son is in the army is exempt. The selection
Of son to stay at home where two sons are
= liable to military duty must b made before
the draft. Quakers and others opposed to
bearing arms can, escape service on-y by
paying $500 or procuring substitutes if able
bodied. No provision has been made for the
exemption Of man who has small children
or an insane wife. The children cannot be
considered motherless, though the case is .
hard one and would probably have been pro
vided for if foreseen. When two sons have
died in military service, one only Of two sur
vivors can be exempted, and that by the Sc
lection Of the parents. q o u

An INCIDENT OF TIE NEW York R1or-
g Mother e they may kill thebody, but they.
cannot touch the soul p was the language
used BY poor Abraham Franklin, a. he was
borne from the presence Of his mother by the
barbarous mob on the morning Of the 18th
ult. This young man, aged twenty-three,
had been an invalid for about two years and
was confirmed consumptive. When the mob
broke into the house they found him in bed.
They bore him into the street, and there, al-
though he had not raised finger against
them-indeed, was not able to do so-they
beat him to death, hanged him to lamp
post, cut his pantaloons off at the knees, cut
bits of flesh ont of his legs and afterwards
set fire to hint All this wasdone beneath
the eyes Of his widowed mother. ID Such an
exhibition Of lbloodthirstyness is, without q,

war document, being pamphlet Of thiry-two
pages, on the powers Of the President in time
Of war. It Il the joint production Of Hon, D.
G, Cloud and Rev. J. H. Power, Of this city,
and sets forth, not only BY . strong chain Of
reasoning, but BY reference to and quotations
from decisions Of the courts, that the tory
hue and cry about violations Of the Constitu-
ton in conducting the war have no founda-
ton in truth-that the President has exercised
as yet no powers forbidden by the Constitu
tion-and that, in fact, the war power is lin
tied only by the laws and usages Of nations.
It is Just such document rs should be ex-
tsnsively circulated at this time, when many
