LFr0m the Buffalo Express ]
/ Curious Case.


The case of Colchester, the spiritual
medium, who is to be tried in this city for
practieinG as a juggler, without taking
ont a license, has been noticed by the
press from time to time, as it has been
brought into tue courts. The following
are the circumstances connected with the
case, as we have learned them: On the
23d Of May last, at Rochester, he was in
yited by the Government officials of the
twenty ghth district, to detray his
share OF the Government expenses by the
way Of taking out IA license. The pets
ton was presented to him by William IL
Rodgers, one Of the United states Asses
sors, requesting him to take out a license
as juggler, to which Colchester ex-
cepted, d!sclaimIng the profession Of Il jug
er. but offered t. take out license
rs a spiritual medium, which Rogers de
cIlncd to give him, insisting that he must
take GU. a license as jugsler. This Col
chester emphatlcaIly refused to DO, upon
which refusal warrant Of arrest was pro
cured, and upon such warrant Colchester
was taken before United States Commis-
siOuer Storrs, of Rochester, and held To bail
IN the sum of ! SEQ Tor his appearance at
the next term OF the United States Court
10 be held at Canandairua, to a ns,ver any
Indictment which might be preferred
against him for practicinE "a a iuggler
without license At Canandaigua the
Indictment was put cr to he tried at a
term Of the United States Court, TO be
held at Buffalo next Tuesday. We un~
jerstaui that AIr. Colchester claims the
right t. hold communication with spirits
without stamps or licenses, and does
NOS propose t. permit even the United
States Government to Interfere with what
he claims his right and religion. Mr.
Colchester saws that he has travelled
through Europe and on his return spent
five months in Wash iu-ton last winter,
where he was visited by all the heads Of
the departments. and is surprised TO know
that II has been lett to an Assistant As
SCISSOR at Rochester to designate name
for his religion, rs he claims the Constr
Jutiou Of the state Of New ! DIRK delegates
t. every person the right to tho tree eX-
ercl,c and enjoyment Of his religious pro-
tcs>ion and worship, and proposes to de
ienI the right at any expense. " e UNDER
stand that a large number Of wi nCsses
have been aud are TO lie suhp@naed on
the part of the defence, among them no
less personages than ex-Governor Gen.
McDnieIs, of Vermont; Senator Me-
/ Dougail, of California: Senator Howard,
Of Michigan; the Senators Lane; Col }.
M Forucy, Of y ashin4ton, and many
other prominent citizens. All The most
noted iuggIers and magicans Of the day
are to appear as witnesses on the part OF
the Goycrnment, and endeavor to prove
/ that be is no more nor less than a ju@-er
/ This case bids fair to be one of the most
interesting tried in our State for many
years.

Mrs. President johnson,

The new mistress of the White House
is thus described by Washington .etter-
writer
"The new lady Of the White House has
very quietly taken possession Of her quar-
ters- and as there has been no receptions
as yet, and will not be until Congress
meets in December, the public are not ia
milar with her style of appearance, and
we do not yet hear many criticisms or
much gossip. She need not hope To escape
these things, however, as the position is
too prominent for seclusion. Mrs. John
son, when the President was Governor of
Tennessee, before the war, never came to
Nash lille At all during her usband' 5 term
of Office, bat resided in the smaller conn
try town Of Greenville, preferring its quiet
and seclusion to the gayeties of the capital.
None of the Presidents family, believe,
Ii ed in Nashville during his term Of Of
ice. Mrs. johnson, from all accounts, Is
lady very much ike the late Mrs Henry
Clay caring nothing for city life or gay
society, bat finding peace and content in
calm unobtrusive measures of the domes
tic life of her own family circle. Mrs.
Patterson, the Presidents daughter, the
wife Of the senator from Tennessee, Jud e
Patterson, will, it is said, do the honors
Of the White House. She seems lady
every way capable Of appearing to adj
vantage IN his high and difficult sphere Of
life.
