'Fire wa s discovered in the base ment story of the Odd Fellow's Hall where it had been smouldering for some time. Some thoughtless person had emptied a bucket of hot embers in some portion of it which had ignited some combustible matter rind was slowly making headway. It was fortunately discovered in good time and a vast amount of property saved. Save "Voir Mosey. —lf our subscribers, who are in arrears for subscriptions to the Ikoi'iker, desire to save money, they can do so by paying up before or at the February Court, as we intend charging all who are in arrears after that time $2,00 and those who •do not pay within the year, $3.00 while all those who pay up at or before that time will be left off with $2,00. We are compell ed to this course because we are too heavily involved to lay out of our money two or three years, Wewauttodo every thing for our patrons we can consistently and in return they must pay up promptly.

GROWERS' CONVENTION. —We have received the following call for a Wool Grow ers' Convention, which is published below for the benefit of those of our readers who are in terested in the wool business. The subject is one of vast importance to the farmers of Pennsylvania, and measures should he taken at once to have every county represented. The following is the call: At a convention of Washington County Wool Growers, held on the 4th inst., the un dersigned were appointed to call a.State con vention. to organize a Pennsylvania State Wool Growers' Association. After due conference, we hereby invite del egates and representative men from every county in the State, to meet in the city of Pittsburg, at Hare's Hotel, on Thursday, the Bth of February next, at 11 o'clock, A. M., for the purpose above specified. If there is time, and the Convention is so inclined, there will bea discussion on the comparative merits of different breeds of sheep, and other topics ap propriate to the occasion. F. JULIUS LE MOYNE, ASA MANCHESTER, JOHN A. EWING, SAMUEL McFARLAND, WILLIAM GABBY, Committee.. WASHINGTON, PA., Jan. 18, 1866. SURPRISE PARTY. — A press of business last •week, prevented us from noticing a happy and successful surprise party, which came off at the M. E. Parsonage, on Wednesday eve ning the 16th inst.. under the auspices of the Mite Society of the M. E. Church, of this place. The absence of the Pastor, Rev. A. R. Miller, for several days, until noon on Wednesday, afforded the Society a delightful opportunity to successfully carry out its de sign. On Wednesday evening Mr. Millerwag invited to visit the Odd Fellows' Lodge, at an early hour in company with some friends. No sooner hail he started on his visit than the members of the Mite Society issued forth with baskets, buckets, freezers, and other articles innumerable and wended their way to the Parsonage, and with a key prepared for the occasion, opened the door and took pos session. In a very brief space of time a large table was prepared and groaned be neath the best that the village could afford. This done all set to speculating upon what would be the upshot of the matter. All man ner of conjectures, surmises, doubts and an ticipations were indulged in. In the mean time the Reverend gentleman could not, for the life of him, conjecture why so much at tention was shown to him. He was accom panied to the Lodge, from the Lodge and up the street. Then a gentleman suggested that he would with lighted lantern, light him in the direction of the Parsonage. When they approached the Parsonage be was not a little stu-prised to see light escaping from the crev ices. He certainly had not left any light there in the afternoon, and he was quite sure that the fire was low when he had gone out. Hark ! merry voices fall upon his ears; ah, ha! The door is thrown open and he finds himself thrust into a throng who laugh round ly while he quietly acknowledges the s— T-R- I'RISK. An excellent supper was then disposed of, and, an hour later, a splended table of re freshments were served. At the close the Reverend gentleman made a very neat and appropriate speech which closed the even ings entertainment, BEDFORD RAILROAD ROUTE.— Several weeks ago we published an elaborate letter, with ed itorial comments, from U. S. Railroad and Mining Register, in favor of a new railroad project to extend from the Lebanon Valley Railroad via the Cumberland Valley, Bloody Run, Bedford to Wills creek, in this coanty, or the Potomac river. In a late number we find the following in regard to the same sub ject: "In the Register, of Dee. 23, we publish ed a letter and comments on the strategic and Commercial importance of the ground between the Lebanon Valley railroad and the Potomac river, via the Cumberland valley to the vicinity of Shippensburg and thence via Bloody Run to Wills' creek or the Potomac river. Our matter, as we know, hat elicited inquiry and consideration; and a number of papers have come to us marked, showing that the article has been extensively copied. And that the idea in it is germinating, we have abundant proof. How soon it may take a more tangible form will measureably depend upon the action of the Cumberland Valley railroad company, which, undoubtedly, has it in its power, by a new policy of judicious ex pansion, to more fully satisfy the transports" tion necessities of the Cumberland valley than it does at present, and thereby forestall combinations which otherwise will inevitably take place. But, from what we hear of the management at the Cumberland Valley rail road, and of its procrastination by the year in matters which might be fixed in an hour, we incline to the opinion that the Oiscussiou of the new project will proceed uninterrupted, and that it will continue to add proselytes to its friends, till finally it will command num bers and influence sufficient to warrant its construction and assure its success." The idea so happily suggested by the cor respondent of the Register, and so heartily endorsed by its editor, may be "germinating," but, for the present, if we are not badly mis taken, the route from the Cumberland Valley railroad is occupied, or it not exactly occupied, at least covered, by the charter of the Southern Pennsylvania and Connellsville company. The Register will recollect that at the session of 1804, this company was chartered with the following provision in sec tion 2: " Provided, however, That the Southern Pennsylvania Railroad Company shall perfect the organization of their company within three months after the passage of this act, and proceed immediately to locate and con struct said road, and complete their main line, within three years." This bill was submitted to the Governor a few days before the adjournmeut of the Leg islature, and held over by him until the spe cial session in August efthe same year, when, not having been returned within the time specified by the Constitution, it became a law. The incorporators met in Pniladelphia on the 10th of November following and elected a full board of officers, thus perfecting its or ganization within the time specified in the act of incorporation. On the very day of its organization a corps of Engineers arrived here, and a few days afterwards, commenced operations upon the route. Two corps of Engineers have been constantly employed from that time until the present. The road has been located from Mt. Dallas to the Foot of Dry Ridge west, and from Connellsville to a point in Somerset county east. Of course the Company cannot "complete their main line within three years," this is simply im possible. It will be compelled to aak the Legislature for an extension, wihch we are emphatically apposed to grauting until the road is put under contract, and then we will only be willing to give them a brief space, because we desire the road in as short a period as it can be made. The thorough survey of the route has de monstrated the fact that it is the best railroad route between the east and the west, but, at present, it appears to be pretty well tied up. In fact so liberal was the Legislature at the passage of the act that it lost sight of a Free Railway system for Pennsylvania and granted this great privilege to the Southern Pennsyl vania Company. The Register will please read the following quotation from the act. After setting out the incorporators in section first, it says, they are hereby authorized to '•Organize a company, by the name, style anu title of the Connellsville and Southern Penn sylvania Railway Company, with power to construct a railroad from Connellsville to the Maryland state line, at such point, and by such route, as to the directors may seem ad visable; and to connect the same with any road, or roads, authorized by the State of Ma ryland, and to connect the same with the Pittsburg and Connellsville railroad, or any other road at, or near, Connellsville, now constructed, or that may hereafter be con structed; and to construct a road from any point, on said line, to connect with any road, or roads, in the Susquehanna valley, or west thereof, and with power to make such branch es as the directors may deem expedient and necessary, in the southern tier ef counties of Pennsylvania, with power to extend any, or all, of said branches to such point, or points, as to the said directors may seem advisable, and connect all, or either of them with any road, or roads, now constructed, or that may hereafter be constructed, west of rhe Susque hanna river; and that the said company shall have authority to cross any railroad, or rail roads, at grade, with its main roads, branches and extensions." The eard of Col. Jordan was handed in for publication last week, and should have appeared, but was delayed by circumstances beyond our control. Lewistown Gazette has changed hands again.

Administrator. American Wool Interest. Deputations from the National wool grow ers, and also from the Woolen Manufactur ers Association are now in New York char ged with the duty of conferring, and, if prac ticable, concurring as to sdch modifications of our present Tariff on Wool and Woolens as they may deem just and benificent. Firm ly believing that the road to enduring cheap ness for the consumer lies through protec tion to the home producer, thus bunging producer and consumer closer together, and reducing the otherwise heavy cost of inter changing their products, we hold that the VV oolen Manufacturers of our country have a direct and positive interest in the rapid and steady extension of sheep Husbandry u DUSI - ao P oun d of foreign wool had been imported for the last twenty years we are confident that our Woolen Manufac turers would now procure their new materi al cheaper than they do; It is a shame that this great agricultural nation does not pro duce nearly all the wool which clothes it ; it would be better for every American interest if our number of sheep were to-day double what it is. We trust the manufacturers see the matter in this light, and will readily ac cede to whatever modification of the wool duty shall be deemed expedient by the wool growers. Referring to the prospects and prices of wool, the Ohio Farmer says : A very intel ligent, well-posted gentleman, who has had long and large experience in w< >ol producing and wool-buying, writes as follows from York—and we call the special attention of our wool-growers to his facts and sugges tions; —"The fact that foreign wool, of a class averaging as fine or finer than the av erage of the wools of this country, is im ported and sold in this market under the present tariff at 24 to 30 cents per pound, is what keeps wool (domestic wool) down to a price as low as we have frequently had it on a gold basis; and when this is coupled with the fact that, when the grower goes to buy a yard of cassimere, he has to pay $2.- 75 to 93.50 for the same Quantity, though really not so heavy and good as he used to buy for $1 to $1.50, is quite sufficient of it self to show that the tariff is not properly adjusted at present. But when we consid er the other fact that skillful manufacturers are making from 50150 per cent, clear profits, it shows the palpably outrageous in justice and inequality of the present sched ule. The wool-growers will never remedy this state of things by simply grumbling and submitting to it. They must pour the peti tions into Congress for an increased duty on imported wool, giving their representa tives to understand that if they do not see to it that a change is made before the pres ent Congress adjourns, they will combine, regardless of politics, and send men to Con gress who will represent them. Again, let them give manufacturers to understand plainly that if they oppose an increase of the duty on wool in some degree correspon ding to present duty on manufactured goods, they will go in for a reduction ot the duty on manufactured goods. If wool growers will go to work jn earnest and get every man in every township they can to sign petitions and flood Congress with them, they can change the whole aspect of the wool mark et in six weeks. Meeting of the Union State Centra! Committee—Time fixed lor holding the Union Slate Convention. The members of the Onion State Central Committee assembled in the city of Harris burg, to-day, at 3 o'clock. Hon. .John Cessna, Chairman, called tho Committee to order, and on the leading of the roll by A. _ W. Benedict, Secretary, a large number of gentlemen appeared as substitutes for the regular members of the Committee, which substitutions were unani mously accepted. On motion of the Hon. It. W. Hall of Blair county, it was Resolved, That the time for holding the Union State Convention be fixed for the 7th day of March, 1866, at 12 o'clock, noon, in the oity of Harrisburg. Several amendment were offered to this motion, one by Col. S. B. thomas. of l)ela> ware county, that the time be fixed for the 4th day of July; another by Gen. Ekin, of Allegheny county, that the Convention as semble on the 7th day of June. These amendments were severally voted down, when, On motion of Hon. George Connell, of Philadelphia, the original resolution, fixing the day for holding the State Convention on the ith day of March, was unanimously adopted. A series of resolutions were then introdu ced, proposing to change the ratio of rep resentation in Union State Conventions. Hon. George Conn- .1 <>; posed these reso lutions, on the ground that the State appor tionment entirely controlled such represen tation ; when On motion of John A. Ileistand, of Lan caster city, the resolutions were laid on the table. On motion, the Convention adjourned to meet at the call ef the Chairman. The Convenience of it. A man "on a bender" has a certain sort of advantage over his sober neighbor—he can prove he was on the inside or outside of the walk as may best serve his purpose. Some public journals are conducted very much after this model. First and last they manage to be on all sides of every question; and can quote themselves, chapter and verse as holding any position, on any subject, just as may suit the convenience ot the hour. This is called "enterprising journalism.'' It was invented in New York. Bennett's Herald claims pre-eminence in it; but Ray mond's Times is making a brave dash for the palm. Plenty of imitations are spring ing up all over the country.— Pittsburgh Gazette. MARRIED. At the Logan House, Altoona, by the Rev. Mr. Mills, Mr. J. C.

Our most Momentous, arduous struggle hariag resulted in the triumph of A serious Nationality, the utter disoomfiture and overthrow of Secession and Slavery, Tn TRIBUBB, profoundly rejoicing in this result, will labor to oonaerve the legitimate fruits of this grand, benignant victory by render ing Liberty end Opportunity the common heri tage of the whole American People now and ever more. Discountenancing all unmanly exaltation over or needless infliction of pain or privation on the upholders of the lost ceuse, it will insist on the , earliest possible restoration of the Southern States V their former power end influence in onr Union Fon the basis of Ali Rights for All their People. It will labor in hope to prove that the substitn | tion of free for Slave Labor must inevitably and universally conduce to the increase of Industry, Thrift, Prosperity and Wealth, se that the South, within the next ten years, must loek back amazed on her long persistence in a practice so baleful as the chatteliaing cf Man. It will labor for the diffusion of Cemmoa School Education, Manufactures, the Useful Arts, Ae., Ac., throughout every portion of our oountry, but especially throughout the sections hitherto devoid of them, believing that every good end will there by be subeerved and the interest of every useful and worthy class promoted. It will urge the Protection of Home Industry by discriminating duties on Foreign Products im ported, with a view to drawing hither the most capable and skillful artificers and artisans of Eu rope, and the naturalising on oar soil of many branches of production hitherto sdl but confined to the Old World, while it would strengthen and extend those which hare already a foothold among us. It will give careful attention to progress and improvement in Agriculture, doing its best at once to bring markets to the doors of our farmers and teach them how to make the most of the op portunities thus afforded them. It will devote constant attention to Markets, es pecially for Agricultural Products, with intent to save both producer and consumer from being vie tiinized by the speculator and forestaller. And, giving fair scope to Current Literature, to the proceedings of Congress, and to the general News of the Day, it hopes to retain its old patrons and attract many new to bear them company. We rarely employ traveling agents, as so many impostors are habitually prowling in the astumed capacity of solicitors for journals. We prefer that our subscribers shall pay their money to persons they know and of whose integrity they are assur ed. Any friend who believes he will do good by increasing the circulation of the Tribune is author ized to solicit and receive subscriptions. Speci men coyies will he promptly sent without charge to those requiring them, and we trust many friends will be moved to ask their neighbors and acquain tances to join in making up their clubs.
