Hundred thousand well-trained rebels are entrenched
there. Thousands of reinforcements are daily arriving
Tin Richmond. Generals Lee, Masruder. Johnston* and
Jeff Davis, stimulate their toiling troops to desporate ex*
crtiona in defence of their capital and lives. Oar brave
JdcClellin tud his fearless band are now investing their
Stronghold. Myriads of Pennsylvania troops are in the
Union army, and nobly will they sustain the honor of
their banner and the State in the impending deadly strife.
Soon will the ominous long-roll beat \ the bugta’s fibrill

-whilst shouts from battalions of impnUive infantry* the
Tearful flash and heavy boom of the artillery* and the
?ftverbuaiifis earth itself attest that the battle has
begun!
Have we prepared enough supplies for those that ehalt
be brought here wounded, with nought beside the torn
•and saturated clothes they wear when carried to the a<n

) The sanitary Commission has done much in tending
additional surgeons pear to the scene of conflict: and all

We notice great firmness and activity in Government
Mcnritiei, and decided dullness in railway shares, espe
cially the Western stocks, which were heavy and ne
glected. The three NewfYork stocks—Centra!, Erie old,
and Erie preferred—have also lost the animation which
liag characterized them for several days past and the
only department of the market that show# any marks of
speculation on the part of the public is the list or Govern*
being dealt in to an enormous extent, chiefly
outside of the Brokers* Board. . t . .

Gough on Ci London by Night.” —On Mon
day evening. Map Mb, Mr. John B. Goiast, the world
renowned temperance lecturer, is announced to deliver,
at the Academy of Music, his celebrated lecture, entitled
*• London by Night.” Mr. Gough has given a lecture on
thifc theme before* bnt it has been rewritten &uA so varied,
as it naturally would be in the hand of Its genins-author,
as to render it essentially a new lecture. From present
indications, the house will be filled to its utmost capacity.
The sale of reserved seat; for the occasion has already
commenced at the Academy, and at Martien’a, 606
Chestnut street, and tbe rush for them is said to oe un
precedented. Those wishing desirable seats will do
wisely, therefore, to apply for tbem early to-day. The
advertisement -vs-ill be found in WUQYhCV COUUUQ*
Cabd Portrait op Parson Brownlow.—
Among the large number of cartes de visite of distin
guished men, now being bought by nearly everybody for
ibe popular “ Album,” the odd of Parson Brownlow*
advertised by the Messrs. Martien* in another column,
this morning, will have a great sale. It is finely engraved,
in the usual excellent Btyle of tbe series published by this
bouse* and is copied from tho only accurate picture ex
tant of this martyr hero of Tennessee. We may state,
in this connection, that these neatly-engraved caries of
Martien's have tbe celebrity of being absolutely Correct
lifcenetstß, and being sold at a lower price than the pho
tograph, tbeir sale is enonnona, a single customer having
ordered as many as forty thousand in a month. The
Photograph Albums of this bouse also are very popular,
bring made In great variety, in superior Style, and BOld
very cheaply. With their extensive facilities for manu
facturing these albums, they find it almost impossible to
supply the demand at their counter, which, we take it, is
sufficient proof of their being Appreciated.
A New Enterprise*— A special effort in
tbe production of Fine Felt Hats is now being made in
this c»ty, 1 y Warburton, the Hatter, of Chestnnt street,
wild, bit lieln« any longer f|*f jljg OTtp
plies of these articles upon the overgrown manufactories
of tbe Eastern States, (whose cheap l&oor and indefinable
compositions now flood every State and city*) has deter
mined to rriynpOD bis own resources and facilities. His aim
is evidently to make his Undress Felt Hats -worthy of the
same universal favor which, is now accorded to his inimi
table Silk Press Hats, which we take leave here to say,
from expeilmental knowledge, ia the greatest hat of
age For comfort and every other merit. With this view,
Mr. Warburton has made such arrangements as will in
sore the greatest possible excellence in workmanship and
materialß—^using only furs of tbs utmost purity, entirely
free from adulterations of any kind. H2s Bands and
Bindings will be of the best French manufacture, and
the interior linings vrill be chaste, rich* and of a quality
corresponding in excellence to the rest of {lft bftti Hid
models are to be fashioned agreeably to the wants and
tastes of this community, so that the merchant, the pro
fessional man* the young man of fashion, the plain gen
tleman, the artist, the traveller, and the mechanic will
And tbe article for their respective requirements.
A passing dance at tbe display in his show windows,
of these Soft Hats, will satisfy any observer, (at least, if
be be a connoisseur of hats,) that great superiority has
already been Attained in their production while a closer
inspection inside hia elegantly-stocked wareroonn, and
tbe luxury of making a practical trial of one of his hats,
wi 1 establish, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that War
bnrtou’fl Frit Hatfl arc all that tba most elooueat
could Tcpre&ctat them to be, or that the most f&stidoous
taste could desire, in points of quality, style, finish, and
price. We really regard this hat as an indispensable
article to ev«ry gentleman’s dreßs, whether from consi
derations of comfort, appearance, or economy.
Clark’s New Refrigerator, “Dr.
Hayes’.” As the season is now opening, when house
keepers and otters will be in want of Refrigerators, we
have token a glance at the Refrigerator market. In this
department, Mr. J. S. Clark, Kd. 1008 Market street, will
this mason carry off the palm. He has not only had a
large force at work, for months in getting up an A
No. litoek of tliew inflispßDßame household articles, hut
he has brought out an entirely new refrigerator, which,
will Btrike every intelligent purchaser as the best thing
of the kind yet given to the public in this department of
the mechanic arts j we allude to lus splendid new “ Dr.
Hayes’ Befrigerator,” the superiority of which consists
in its economical consumption of ice , and its uodoubted
excellence in preserving meats and other provisions the
longest period of time with the least exaense. The prin
ciple upon which it is constructed will be readily under
stood and appreciated upon examination. Besides, as
Mr. Clark is one of the largest manufacturers of these
Oiltetefe in this oouutoy, ho hA6 f&6lllU®a tor Bailing them
far lelow the ordinary prices. Go to headquarters to
make your purchases is a good rule. Mr. Clark, more
over, being himself a skilful mechanic, and superintend
ing the manufacture of his stock personally! has advan
tages which enable him to furnish a better article for the
money than any of his competitors, and, whatis more,
in view of tbe unsettled state of affairs, he has deter
mined, during the coming season, to retail his refrigera
tors at wholesale prices. We m»y state, in conclusion,
that these refrigerators are manufactured in all sizes, for
all purposes, and at prices varyiag from the low figure of
$4 to $2O each.

ROHttSBDIUJ, Columbia co., Pa„ April 18,1862.
Messrs. Evans <£ Watson, Philadelphia ;
Gentlemen— At my earliest opportunity, I hasten to
inform you of one of the mpst destructive fires that has
occurred in our town. On the morning of March 26 la*t
our three*and-a*half-£tory brick and frame store and
dwelling was entirely destroyed by fire, It burned with'
such violence and inhujgjfy of beat that it was ton or
twelve hours before we could reach the Safe. In the
meantime, it could be seen gtowing.with a red heat, but,
after securing tho Safe from tbe ruins, on opening it, in
the presence of a groat fflftny people, all our boohs, bank
notes, and valuable papers, with which it was closely
filled, were discovered in a perfect condition , and, con
sidering tbe long and severe exposure, every one admit
ted, with glad surprise, the value and triumph of your
improved Salamander. This evidence fkgaiu of tfcC Qlo*
tit of your Safes will secure for you thousands of friends
In our Bfcction. I shall very soon require another of your
Safes, as my confidence in them Is stronger than ever.
I remain, very truly, yours, WILBON ACER;
