RAILROAD MEETING.—Another Rail
road meeting was held in Petersburg,
(Y. 5.,) on Saturday last. The Committee
appointed to collect funds for a survey of
the proposed road reported that over $l4OO
had been subscribed. Gen W. W. WRIGHT
was authorized to organize a company to
make a survey of the route from Petersburg
or York Springs, by way of Dillsburg, to
New Cumberland, on the Northern Central
Railroad. We understand that Gen. WEIGHT
expects to commence the survey about the
10th or 15th of September.
A CENTENNIAL SERMON.—We have
had upon our table for sometime a hand
some copy of the Proceedings in the North
Congregational Church, Newburyport,
Mass., on the occasion of its one hundredth
anniversary. The conspicuous feature in
the proceedings was the Discourse of
the Pastor, Rev. Virmias.ist ANDERSON
MCGINLEY, formerly of this county, and
now one of the leading ministers of the
Old Bay State. The great success which
has attended his labors in the important
sphere in which he moves, cannot but be
a souce of comfort and satisfaction to all
his friends.

PENNSYLVANIA STATE FAIR
The Penna. State Fair will be held at Har
risburg, commencing September 29th, 1868,
and will continue four days. It promises to
be one of the largest ever held in the State.
The loca?ity is very central, and accessible
from all parts of the State by railroads.
We are infromed by the Secretary that al
ready many inquiries are being -made by
exhibitors with great promises of an exhi
bition of their articles. The grounds con
tain sixty acres and are located on the
banks of the Susquehanna, within a con
venient distance of the City of Harrisburg,
and about one-half mile from the line of
the Penn. Railroad. The locality should
insure a largo and most interesting fair.
SEYMOUR MFETLNG.—The Demo
cracy held a public meeting in the Court
house on Wednesday evening. After pro
tracted drumming they succeeded in getting
together enough Democrats and Repub
licans (the latter drawn out by curiosity) to
make a respectable show, numbering in the
aggregate about the same as the Republican
meeting on Friday. Wm. A. DUNCItN, Esq.,
Democratic candidate for District Attorney,
onvned the ballin a fierce attack on Re pub
- lican extravagance, and was followed by
McCLEAN, Esq., who savagely attack
ed the Congressional policy of Reconstruc
tion. By this time the Republicans had
generally satisfied their curiosity and went
their way, with sundry Democrats who
seemed equally satisfied with the show,
leaving E. B. BCEIILEn, Esq., to conclude
the performance with a lengthy discus
sion of matters and things in general.
REPUBLICAN SENATORIAL CON
FERENCE.—The Senatorial Conferees of
this District met at Graeffenburg on Tuesday
last, August 25, Franklin county was re
presented by Col. James G. Elder, H. C.
Greenawalt, Esq., and W. S. Keefer, Esq ;

C. H. Buehler and Col. E. G. Falmestock.
"Col. J. G. Elder was called to the chair and

The name of Col. W. D. Duos having
been presented by Franklin County as a
candidate for State Senator, on motion of
Col. C. H. Buehler the nomination was
made unanimous.

The following Resolution was then un
animously adopted :
Resolved, That in Col. Wm. D. DixoN,
we present to the voters of the 17th Sena
torial District, a candidate whose loyalty
and devotion to the country have been am
ply attested by honorable service as a true
and gallant soldier; whose unblemished
personal character and stern integrity give
a sure guarantee that in him our people
will have an honest, faithful public servant
—a true Represntative of the popular will—
and a legislator whose official action can
not be controlled by corrupt or other im
proper influences.
DAMAGE CLAIMS. —The Commis
sioners appointed to assess the damages
sustained in the border counties during
the war, have adjourned, after appraising
the damages in Perry, Bedford, Fulton
and part of Franklin. The following is
the list of claiins and the amount as far as
reeelVed up to the 13th of August:
Perry, 3 claimants, amounting to $ 683.85
Bedford, 44 o 3,613.17
igglion, 112 •• " 36,694.39
Franklin, 460 " '' 227,225.74
Total, 618 $278,417.15
Or about an average of $4.10.78 to each
claimant. There have been claims as low
as eight dollars and fifty cents ($8.50), and
as high as thirteen thousand four hundred
and forty-three dollars and fifty cents
($13,413A0) presented. The highest Is by
ex-Sheilff Taylor, of Franklin county,
who had a fine drove of fat cattle taken
from him by the rebels, near filcConnells
burg, in 1863.
A majority of the claims in Franklin
county have not yet been presented. The-
Commissioners will meet again at fifer
cersburg on the Bth of September, at
Waynesboro' on the 101 h, at Chambers•
burg on the 11th and at Shippensburg on
the 15th.
HORSES STOLEN.—This neighbor
hood seems to be infested with Horse
Thieves. A few weeks ago we announced
the stealing of two horses of JOTIN W AUGH
.of Hamiltonban township. On Sunday
night last, Estaxuat. WEIMER; of Cumber
land_township, lost two ; while several dis
appeared last week from the neighborhood
of Emmitsburg.
Detective Rouzer traced two men to Bal
timore, named Charles Messersmith and
, suspected of stealing
Mr. Waugh's horses, where they were ar
rested. The latter is also charged with
stealing horses in York county, and has
been taken to York for trial. The former
will be brought to this place.
It is supposed the, gang of thieves operat
ing in this county have their headquarters
in Baltimore.
Several men were seen going down the
pike on Sanhay night, towtuds Baltimore,
with two horses, supposed to be Mr. Welk
ert's.
and enthWidasdo Reirltdiesireneett ng was
held in the Court-house on -Friday eve-
Mpg list under the 'auspices of ttiefl3or
ough "Grant and Colfax Club." Capt. A.
M. HUNTER called the meeting to order,
when the following officers were chosen:
President—Hon. J. B. Danner.
Vice Presidents—Josiah Benner, George
B. Stover, John L. Tate, Henry Com
fort, James J. Wills, Michael Sprinkler,
Henry Garlach, E. H. Minnigh, WM. S.
Hamilton.
Secretaries—Capt. T. C. Norrlii,.Capt. John
F. McCreary, Lieut. Wm. R:Eyster.
D. McCoNAuonx, Esq., addressed the
meeting in an able and earnest speech,
in which he traced the origin and forma
tion of the Rupublican party, growing
out of the derrioralization of the Democ
ratic party in surrendering to the Slave
Power—the attempt to nationalize Slave
ry—the Kansas agitation—and its later
history, culminating in the election of
Lincoln in 1860 and his re-election in
1864; closing with an examination of the
character of the candidates presented by
the Chicago and New York Conventions
for National officers.
Hon. EDWARD MornEnsou followed
in an able and forcible discussion of the
issues involved in the Campaign, which
had been squarely presented by the Dem
ocratic Convention in its platform and
candidates. The New York Convention,
in its platform and through its candidates
had given fair notice that if the Democratic
party be successful this fall, the whole
work of Congressional reconstruction
would be ignored and the country subject
ed to renewed agitation, while Frank
Blair iu his Broadhead letter boldly pro
claims that it will be the duty of the Pres
ident to break up and disperse, by the
military power, the Southern State Gov
ernments. Hero is a direct Issue—the
election, of GRANT AND COLFAX involving
Peace and a speedy completion of the
work of Re-construction—that of SEY
moult AND BLAIR involving renewed agi
tation and Civil War. Mr. MernEnsoN
reviewed the work of Reconstruction— I
the importance of the 14th Amendent to
the Constitution—and the financial plank
of the New York platform, which de
mands equal taxation on all classes of
property, and closed with on eloquent
appeal to the friends of GRANT AND Cor,
FAX to organize and work for victory.
The meeting adjouned in fine spirits.
McPHERSON'S MANUAL.—We have
before us a copy of.the Political Manual
for 1565, prepared by our colleague, Hon.
EDWARD McP.a - Ensols; giving in compact

We are glad to learn that the work. is

Republican and Democratic National
Committees have ordered large numbers.
Its fullness and impartiality make it a
sine qua-non to every intelligent politician.
The Now York Tribune thus speaks of it
"No canvasser, no matter on which side,
can afford to be without this volume; and
any non-canvasser who attends meetings
addressed by Copperheads can, with this
book in his hand, detect and expose at
least six bouncing whoppers in each half

The Manual can be had by addressing
Mr. McPuEasoN, and is also fur sale in
Gettysburg at the Bookstore of A. D.

RAILROAD ITEMS.—At a meeting of
the stockholders of the Frederick .prid
Pennsylvania Line Railroad Company,
held at Woodsboro', on the 10t1. inst., the
following officsrs were elected to manage
the affairs of the company for the ensuing
year:—President, John Loats; Directors,
John Reifsnidor, David J. Markey, J.
Alfred Ritter, Lewis Bruner, John Sifford,
W. H. Falconer, of Frederick, and Capt.
A. W. Eichelberge , and William Rine
dollar, of Pennsylvania. The Frederick
Examiner says that when the result of the
election was announced several of the
stockholders withdrew their subscriptions.
We presume that the dissatisfaction pro
ceeds from an apprehension that the offi
cers elect may prefer one of the several
routes which divide the public.
The Hagerstown Mai/ says that arrange
ments have been made between the offi
cers of the Western Maryland railr,pad
and the County Commissioners of Wash
ington county, for the immediate comple
tion of their line to Afechanicstown, which
will remain for the present its western
terminus. Negotiations for the necessary
rolling stock are also in progress.
The Frederick Examiner says that t
project of building's branch railroad from
Emmittsburg to the Western Maryland
Railroad, at Rocky Ridge, west of the
Monocacy, is engrossing much attention
at the hands of the citizens of that place,
Capt. Irwin's corps of engineers under
the direction of Col. Glenn, has just com
pleted the preliminary surveys, and their
report, with maps and profiles, together
with an estimate of the cost of the road,
will be ready shortly for the considera
tion of the company. Col. Glenn reports
the route as extremely favorable for a
railroad. It will be about seven miles in
length, passing over, for the greater part,
a level country and almost a straight line,
with lights grades. It is comtemplated
to have the work completed by next win
ter. Many advantages will accrue from
the building of this road. It will not only
accommodate Emmittsburg and vicinity,
but also the Millerstown Valley in Penn
sylvania, and a rich agricultural region
and the surrounding populous country,
which will add largely to the business and
receipts of the Western Mayrland Rail
road.
pr - " The war between the States, its
Causes, Character, Conduct and Besults,"
by ALEXANDER H. STEPHENS, i s
the title of a valuable work just issued by
THE NATIONAL PUBLISHING CO., Phila
delphia, Pa.
The title indicates the character of this
elaborate Discussion which is by the late
Vice President of the Confederacy ; and
very fully and ably presents the views of
the political school in which he has long
been eminent. His analys is clear; his re
search extensive; and reasoning ingen
ious. We do not concur in the gonersl scope
of his opinions, but are glad to find them So
fully stated that they may be sure of fair
consideration before the final verdict of
' history shall be rendered.
The publishers sell the book only by
subscription, and an agent is wanted in
every county. It is well printed, and is
illustrated with portraits of Jackson, Clay,
and others.
BARGAINS.—A fine ohanoe tbi Bar
gains is now presented at the store of Dtip
sow( & HOFFMAN, In this place, who are
selling off their stock of Dry Goods at cost.
Beo Overtisement.
On Monday evening, the 23rd-inst., a
number of the colored citizens of Gettys
burg assembled at the Colored Methodist
Church, to give an expression of their feel
ings and sentiments at the loss of their great
friend and advocate, the Hon.,, THADDEUS
Sxsyssrs. The meeting was organized - by
appointing /AEON RUSSELL. President,
HENRY limns Vice-President, and k litssz
listao's Secretary. Addresses were de
livered by Messrs. Watts, Nelson and Rus
sell upon the life and services of the deceas
ed, after which the following Resolutions
were unanimously adopted :
Whereas, God, the supreme ruler of the
universe, has seen fit to remove from our
midst, by death, the incorruptible patriot,
THADDEUS STEVILIS ; *
And Whereas, We, the colored citizens of
GettyFburg deplore his loss, and recognize
in his death a great calamity to our race
and to the country, yet we bow in humble
submission to the inscrutable will of an all
wise Providence.
Resolved, That we deplore with inex
pressible sorrow and anguish this great loss,
which has at the same time robbed the
country of one of the wisest and purest
statesmen, the oppressed of one of their best
friends, the poor of a great benefactor,
liberty one of Its ablest champions, the
world one of its brightest advocates of
humanity—an ornament of the age, to
whose memory, virtues and great qualities,
eulogies can never do full justice.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolu
tions be published in the Star and Senti
nel of Gettysburg. After which the meet
ing adjourned.
FATAL ACCIDENT.—A terrible ac
cident occurred at Mclienrick's Saw Mill,
in Buchanan Valley, on the 14th inst.—
JACOB BUCKIEASTEE, colored, was employ
ed at the mill to bear off the slabs. Whilst
thus engaged, he was caught in the strap
which runs the circular saw, and carried
over a large wheel, nine feet in diameter,
crushing his body in a most shocking man
ner. He died about an hour after. His age
was probably sixty years. He leaves a
wife, but no children.— Compiler.
HINT TO LADIES.—It is a distin
guishing characteristic of a cultivated
woman to adorn and beautify her person.
In proportion as she besomes refined or
debased, she pays more or less regard to
her personal appearance. Tho love of ad
miration is, as it ought to be, strong in
every woman's nature, and hence it is that
the decoration of her person is always
l i regarded as of paramount importance.
The three most beautiful things on earth
are women, children and flowers—each
equally by nature pure and attractive.
Woman knows she is beautiful, she loves
to be admired by man.; endeavors to ren
der herself as attractive as posible to man's
eyes, and therefore it is that she avails
herself of all the benefits of dress and
ornaments. Woman is gifted by nature
with great natural attractions. Her com
plexion is, if not ruined by paint and
powder, fair and delicate, her hair abund
ant and lustrous, and her form the very
perfection of grace and loveliness. Wo
man's chief ornament is her hair. No
matter how regular the contour of the fea
tures may be—how lustrous the eye—how
sweet the voice or graceful the form, it the
hair be not soft, glossy and beautiful, the
chief attraction is wanting. A lady re
markable for the beauty of her hair, re
marked in our hearing, the other day, that
she owed to the moderato and constant
use of "Barrett's Hair Restorative" a deep
obligation, for by it she had become local
ly fainous for the abundance and lustre of
her hair. Using it constantly ourselves
we can add our testimony that as a dress
ing and restorative combined Barrett'a is
superior to any Hair Preparation we have
ever used. It is reasonable in price too,
costing only one dollar for a large bottle
full of the mixture.—Cincirmati .Yrinday
Globe. lt-
BUILDING LUMBER, &c.—The atten
tion of Farmers, Builders, Contractors,
and others, is invited to the large assort
ment of LUMBER of all kinds suitable
for building purposes, to be found at
Col. C. H. BuEnr,Ett's Lumber Yard, at
corner of Carlisle street and Railroad depot,
including Boards, Planks, Flooring, Si
ding, Laths, Pickets, Shingles, &c.—Also

is a well-known fact that the Cir

heads of hair. If its possession can lend

by the use of "Barrett's. Vegetable Hair

Having tried ono myself, I know exactly what it will
do. I could refer yon to score. of (armors who ha, e
purchased machines of me, wboare highly pleased 3.1
say this is the only tnacbhwthey would use.
Extras always on hand, and repairing done here at
my place. This is a great considerat ion—themach ine

Another great paring Is the BINDER which Is at.

been thoroughly tried, and given entire satisfaction—
requiting to harvest hand except a drivbr. This
Binder can also be attached to the Reapers a hich
