watching HIM closely until short time ago when
she commenced suit against him IN Buchanan

THE swEENIANs.
Curious Claims.

An old Kentuckian, who says that he fought
in the war of 1872, has memorialized Congress
for compensation for eleven emancipated slaves
who were formerly his property" Here is his
bin:-
"Your petitioner thinks that the Government
should not take mans property from him without
compensation, (See Constitution United states
Before the war he could have obtained the following
amount Ior hs slaves indeed, he was offered mole
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1866-03-23

Your petitioner believes that Congress should re-
munerate him for his property taken nom him,
which the Constitution of the United States, we'll
as the Constitution of the Commonwealth Oh Ken
lucky, guaranteed TO him"
The name of this man is j. Harding Magruder;
but there is another claimant before Congress
whose petition Is still more curious. The second
was also soldier in the war of 1872. His name
is Ephram Hunt. He confesses that he de-
serted from the service in September, 1915, but
now applies for bounty and back pay, on the
grounds that he had right to desert at the close
Of the war, and that he has recently frozen his
fingers and ls now a cripple

THE FENIANS.
Arrival of AN Envoy from stephens HIS
Escape from Ireland C0nEradicted-
MCabtnet Session at Union Square.

The latest ana most important event in the
Fcnlan circles is the arrival on Wednesday of
an envoy from James Stephens to Colonel O'Ma-
hony. 1t is said that this gentleman, who was
an officer in the late American Rebellion, is the
bearer of very important dispatches, the con-
tents of which have been communicated to the
principal Fenian leaders for some days past in
session at Union Square. The ''powers that be"
do not choose to communicate to an eXpectant
public the smallest item of information relative
to the future movements of the Brotherhood.
However, the Union Square authorities contra
dict the statement that stephens has escaped
from Ireland. The Fenian Sisterhood are en-
gagged in making extensive preparations for a
fair, to be held in Germania Hall on the 10th of
next month.
THE swEEEIANs.
The Sweenian authorities and officials are
usually very reticent, and report very little of
importance, except the receipt OF large sums of
money, which is perhaps as important as any
thing else. 1t is stated that large numbers of
men are rallying to the Irish standard, soon to
be unfurled 'over the border" that depots of
arms and ammunitons of war are being esta-
bllshed, and that the blow will soon be struck.
Both wings of the Brotherhood appear to pros
per, and each is sanguine of success.-M Y.

SHARON.

The Episcopal parish have just complet- ed a new parsonage, which is to be occu- pied by the Rector, the Rev. Mir. Howard this week. It is located under the very shadow ot the sanctuary, and its being built, shows the interest of the parish in the comfort and convenience of their pas tor. When the parsonage of the Congre- gational Society is completed, all the par ishes in the town, including Ellsworth will be furnished with that very important ap- bondage.
 The writer lately paid visit to Samuel Everitt Esq of Ellsworth, who is now well advanced in his Seth year, and it was very pleasant to observe the extraordinary de- gree of mental and physical yigor that re- main to him. Major Everitt was for many years, prominent citizen of Sharon, hay ing been for forty years one of its magis- trates and one of it's representatives in the legislature at eight sessions. He was also a member of the convention which formed the constitution of this State, and is the only survivor of the members of that body from this county. It is believed that he and William Hungerford Esq, of Hartford are all of that body who remain among the living. .~.- t
