CoNKEtASYII.LE AND SOUTHERN' PENNSYL; VAN IA RAILROAD. —At the request of the stockholders, representing more than one. tenth iu interest, a special meeting of the stockholders of the Connellsville and South ern Pennsylvania Railroad Company will be held in Philadelphia-on the 10th proximo, for the purpose of taking into consideration, and accepting or refusing to accept, the act of the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, approved the fifth day of April, A. D. 1866, entitled an act authorizing the Connellsville and Southern Pennsylvania Railway Company to construct a railroad from Connellsville to Pittsburgh, with branches; extending the time for commencing and com pleting, and repealing the limitations as to the time of constructing the main line of said company ; authorizing connections with roads chartered by the State of Virginia or Western Virginia, and changing the time of the annual meetings of the stockholders of said company. This looks as if the Company had resolved upon making a show of doing something. But we cannot see the stockholders : all the world knows that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company holds about all the stock subscribed and has the entire say in the matter. We hope the Directors along the liue will attend and fully represent our wants, wlttt susu our advantages and disadvantages. It there should be a stockholder in Bedford county we hope he will not fail to attend. Within the last few days the surveys of the entire lino have been completed and the office work is progressing rapidly. In a short time we can e ect to hear what is to be "did." A NEW LAMP.— In no locality throughout the entire country. have the terrors of petro leum and kindred iHnminators been so keenly felt, as in our city and its neighborhood, and in no place should any invention tending to promote safety in the burning of petroleum, benzine, naphtha or anything else, be hailed with such a welcome as here. Among the recent inventions of this class, tlip Lightning Lamp, arranged upon an entirely new princi ple, is weli worthy of examination. A tube extending through the chamber separates the wick from the oil. and the draft is applied at the bottom of the chamber. Explosion seems to be impossible, since the light would be obliged to pass between a close fitting wick and the tube, into a second tube, before reaching the oil chamber. A gas is genera ted from the carbon before burning, thus se curing three-fold more light. The principle is applicable to all lightning uses to which car bon is applied, and the patentees claim that the lamp is not only non-explosive and safe, but cheap and beautiful. The lamp is now used in many of our lighthouses, having been adopted by the Uunited States Government. We clip the above notice of Dr. A. C. Vaughan's new lamp from the Pittsburgh Gazette. fair ''The Camp, the Battlefield and the Ifospital t " or Lights and Shadows of the Great Rebellion is the title of a handsome volume, just issued by the National Publish ing Company, s<>7 Minor Street, Philadelphia, Pa. The author, Dr. L. P. Brockett, has delved most industriously amongst the masses of curious incidents which have marked the late war, and has grouped and classmen tnem under appropriate heads, and in a very attrac tive form. ihere is a certain portion of the war that will never go into the regular histories, uor be embodied in romance or poetrj', which is a very real part of it. and will, ii preserved, convey to succeeding generations a better idea of the spiri- of the conflict than luanv dry reports or careful narratives of events, and this part may be called the gossip, the pathos of the war. This illustrates the char acter of the leaders, the humor of the sol diers, the devotion of women, the bravery of men, the pluck of our heroes, the romance and hardships of the service. From the be ginning of the war the author has been enga ged in collecting all the anecdotes connected with or illustrative of it. The volume is profusely illustrated with over 100 edgravings by the lirst artists, w iueb are really beautiful : worthy of examination as speeimeus of the art. The book's con sents include reminiscences of camp, picket, spy. s out, bivouac, siege aud battle-field ud veutures j thrilling feats of bravery, wit, Vi'lcry, comical and ludicrous adventures, etc., etc. Amusements as well as instruction may be found m every page, as graphic detail, brill jant wit, and authentic history, are skillfully interwoven in thh work of literary art. c '-just such a volume as will find numer ous purchasers, aud just such a one as per sons seeking to act as book agents should add > their list.* SAX PATCH TVNXKL.— The work on SAUTL Patch Tunnel, on the Pittsburg and (. onne - ville Railroad is still being pushed forward by our fellow citizen. Mr. John Siurobml. who has the contract, and bn last week a hole was made. The length of the tunnel is 4,700 feet, being 1000 feet longer than the long tunnel | on the Pennsylvania Central Railroad through the Alleghauies, between Altoona and ('reason, and onty about 250 feet shorter than the great Kingwood tunnel on the Balti :nore and Ohio Railroad. It is intended for a double track, and is twenty-two feel wide by nineteen feet in height. As soon *as the legal questions concerning the Pittsburg ana Connellsville Railroad shall have been deci ded, the work on the road will be pushed rapidly forward to completion. No doubt exists as to those decisions being favorable to the road, inasmuch as the questions at issue, have already been carefully considered by two able Courts, with a favorable result. Ine people of this section of the country may congratulate themselves upon the present bright prospects of the road, and the proba bility of its eaty completion. — Cumberland Cieilian. tVe were surprised at the statement, when first made, that the Sand Patch 1 uunel was rapidly approaching completion and that the workmen had "cut through. Upon inquiry the tunnel does not appear to be in as advan ced stage of completion as would appear from the above. The hole is a mere air hole, and it is confidently asserted by those who know, that it wo6ld take 200 men two years to com plete it. The force upon it at present is a mere force of occupation and and does not exceed twenty-five or thirty men. The Connellsville Company appears to be carrying out the emuo policy on that line that the Southern Penn sylvania is on this. jpr,-; We deem it due to Jos. S. M. Gibson, recently a conductor on the Penn'a 11. R., to correct an item, going the rounds of the press, to the effect that he was committed to prison, in'Philadeiphia, in default of SIO,OOO bail, for embezzling the funds of the Company. The truth is, he was not arrested for embez zlement, but for threatening actions towards Pinkerton, the detective, and he was not in prison, but simply in charge of & police offi cer. — Altoona Tribune. PROSCRIPTION CONU-Nl LI). LETTER FROM I'ILGRIM. It was a mild sunny afternoon in the au tumn of 1866, whilst meandering all alone on the banks of a gracefully Rowing stream, that we met our old friend the antiijuary. Seat ing ourselves side by side en a moss-covered log, bcueath the over-shadowing branches of a majestic.oak, the loquacious gentleman pro ceeded. in his felicitous manner, to relate a very exciting tale of democratic proscription. The scene was laid in a narrow valley, west ofEvitt's mountain, called byway of pre-emi nence- ''little Berks. Mr B was a man of mark —one of nature's noble men. His abilities were above mediocrity. His ed ucational advantages were quite favorable. His qualities of mind and of heart were of such a character as to make him a leading spirit in the community. Mr. B in the good old days of yore, was associated with what was called the democratic party, when said organization had some principles over and above ' 'five barley loaves, and a few small fishes.' Mr. B -was made promi nent as Justice of the Peace, county Commis sioner, and general party director. No one man in the whole community exerted so 6* *•"* —— -. -. inllnaniv. llflwAVPr when tlic great hereby of States Rights and Secession culminated in open rebellion : when the "public Functionary" at the Metropolis of the nation "could find no power in the Constitution to coerce a sovereign State, though rushing headlong into treason, when Davis. Y'ancy. Rhett, Breckenridge, and oth er prominent leaders ot the old democratic party, raised their suicidal hands against the life of the nation, Mr. B could not con scientiously cross that Rubicon. The deeply inwrought feeling of patriotism, which had grown with his growth and strengthened with his strength, caused the hope of his soul aud the affections of his heart to turn tremblingly to the flag of his country, aud the principles of free government, as taught by the early founders of the Republic. When democrats rejoiced over rebel victories, Mr. B sigh ed and mourned in solitude ! When the vis sages of democrats were elongated by the idingsof federal triumphs Mr. B heart in common with the great patriotic heart of the nation, throbed with emotions of unspeaka able gratitude, and he devoutly thanked the God of Battles for the vindication of right principles. Owing to this essential difference of feeling many of Mr. B 's former political friends, whose intelligence was not much in advance of their patriotism, determined that he should be proscribed ! That his supplies should be cut oft'! That (so far as any effort of theirs could accomplish it) his business should be crushed! Although he was an honest miller, his mill should no longer grind their yellow grain. In violation of the gol den rule As you would that men should do unto you do ye ever, so unto them. Lose semi rebels goaded their laboring teams over rug ged roads, seeking accommodation at distant points ! And all because their conscientious neighbor had the manliness and independence to elevate patriotism above party, and boldly to vindicate the Right in the niidstof a crook ed and ofa perverse generation. The storm has blown over —the white-robed angel of peace has been wooed back to our land, Ihe envenomed shafts of" malice fell harmlessly at the feet of the noble patriot. A merciful Providence secured his defenceless head ! While the peaceful shades of life's even tide close in around him. he rejoices in the pleas ing consciousness that he was true to his flag and to his country in the dark days of trial aud sorrow. Antiquary having finished his touching historical sketch, Pilgrim's heart was stirred with indignation, and the convic tion was indelibly impressed upon his mind that proscription, for opinion's sake, isa£in of tho first magnitude, and that tile political proscriptionists of the rebel type, unless thor oughly washed in the laver of regeneration, according to the teaching of ancient and of modern theology, will ultimately find beyond the "dark rolling river" a clime./'ar warmer than the "sunny South" —distinguished from every ol her locality in the vast universe by its exhaustless supplies of fire aud brimstone 1 Let graceless political tricksters take warn ing —justice is on their hack ! PIUJKIM. BEAN'S COVE, (which is in the "State of Southampton,") December ad, 1566, N. B. Pilgrim is pained to learn by the lust Gazette that the emaciated invalid of Cba neysville, "Homespun," hasbeeu seized with a violent literary spasm ! His insane ravings are terrible. Poor creature, he gives indica tions of hopeless collapse ! Not being able at this time, in view of more urgent and im portant practice to pay "Humespnu" a pro fessional visit, allow Pilgrim to prescribe in bis (almost hopeless) case, as follow-s : viz. 5 Conservative pills daily until nausea is produced. Ten drops hourly of the wine labeled "My Policy." His caput should be well rubbed occasionally with "Mongrel" oil. The preckmt ingredients may all be found in a literary drug shop in the Borough of Bed ford. l\ofeasor M s had better pay some attention to his case. Should he expire, let a suitable box be provided— well lined with Gazettes—a large bundle forming his pillow. Then let his "aimable" friend, "Un cle Toby," read the burial service over him, consign his remains to their last resting place beneath the sacred soil of Southamp ton. The following Epitaph, or something like it, should be inscribed upon his tombstone : Here lies poor Tim. Homespun, Oh! reader do not fret, His work on earth WAS DONE : He wrote for the Gazette.

JpOPULAR SCIENCE. The Scientific American to be Greatly Enlarged. This widely circulated and Popular Journal of tho Industrial Arts and Sciences enters its twen ty-second year on the Ist of January next, and the publishers propose to sigoalize the occasion by Enlarging it to the size of the most costly Scientific Journals of Great Britain, without, increasing the subscription price. It is almost superfluous to speak of the great value of this Popular and Useful Journal to all classes, and especially to Mechanics, Manufactu rers, Inventors, Engineers, Chemists, Agricultur ists, and all who love to read of the wondrous pro gress which now marks every department of Me chanical Engineering and tho Industrial Arts and Sciences generally. The Editorial department is very ably conduc ted, and many of the best Scientific writers in this country and Europe are contributors to its pages. Many of the articles have the charm of romance about them, and inspire the mind with noble ideas. Tke Scientific American has the largest circu lation of any similar journal in existence, but it j ought to have a million of readers in this growing country. The engravings of New Inventions, Tools, Im plements fir the Farm, Workshop and Household arc very numerous, and arc splendidly executed by the best artists in the world. This feature of the paper is very striking, and has won the praise of the united press of the couutry and Europe. Another feature of the Scientific American is the official publication of every Patent granted by the Government Patent Office. Each number contains the weekly issue of Patent Claims, with copious notices of new inventions, together with Reviews of Foreign Inventions and Discoveries in every department of Science. Whoever reads tho Scientific American is in strutted and entertained, without being bothered with hard words and dry details. The American and European Patent Offices, in connection with the Scientific American, form an immense Museum of Mechanical Novelties which furni.-h constant employment to a largo corps of Scientific Examiners who prepare drawings and specifications for Patents. This firm is no doubt the most extensive in the world. Now is the time to sand in subscriptions to the Scientifi' American, so as to begin with the new volume. The numbers for a year make up a splendidly illustrated volume of 832 pages. Terms. $3 per annum; fl 50 for six months; $1 for four months: Clubs of ten aud upwards, $2 50 each, Canadian subscribes, $3 25 per annum, always in advance.

Bedford, July 13. 1867 ™3S?" 1867 CHICAGO TRIBUNE. Otuly, lri-Weekly and Weekly Edition a, devoted Tsews, Commerce, Politic*, Agriculture, Manu factures, Literature and Science. The best News reaper, the best Political paper, the best Commer cial paper, the most valuable Family paper, the Largest paper in the Northwest. It publishes more Telegraphic News, better Market Report*, more Interesting News, and a Greater Variety of Leliaole and Useful Information than any other paper in A meriea. The Chicago TriLunt, now approaching its twenty-first year, is recognized a* the leading or gan and exponent of the great, patriotic, domi nant Republican party of the Northwest. The Tribune is no ephemeral toncem of donbtfol du ration, but a permanently established institution, known and respected throughout the United States. Its circulation exceeds the combined is sues of other Chicago dailies. Its past record and career may be pointed to with pride and pleasure by its conductors. Since the Republican party was organised, the Chicago Tribune has stood by it, through evil as well as good report; never in the rear, bat always in the front, beckoning ii on ward and upward; never faltering or weary, but always hopeful, earnest, fearless. Its blows have fallen incessantly on slavery, oligarchy and trea son. During the entire period of thc'rebellion it (dew no uncertain bleats, but sounded the charge s-nd cheered on the defenders of freedom to renew ed efforts, assuring them of a glorious triumph for the right as the reward of perseverance and sacrifice. And now, when the wicked rebellion is crushed, the oligarchy cunqucrred, ar d slavery abolished, the Chicago Tribune insists that the legitimate fruit* of our victory shall not be yielded back to vanquished rebels by an apostate Executive, who has basely and wickedly betrayed the loyal peo ple who intrusted him with Presidential powers. The Tribune opens a new campaign to secure to the Union an enduring peace, and a reconstruc tion based on the principles of EtiUAT. RIGHTS AND EXACT JUSTICE TO ALL MEN! It therefore advocates Impartial Suffrage, irrespec tive of color or birthplace. Right wrongs no man, and no man's rights arc abridged or endangered by giving to every law-abiding citizen all his rights. And no scheme of reconstruction will prove satisfactory or enduring that denies equal civil and political rights and privileges to any class of iyl citizens. No Democrat cat. oppose impartial suffrage and equal rights without shame ful inconsistency and stultification. And the South can never be truly free, prosperous or hap py until all its citizens are recognized as equal before the law, and equal in making the laws, which they mu-t obey, regardless of color or po sition. The Chicago Tribune sincerely believes in the principles of the Declaration 6f Independence, and is therefore Radical in its aims, impulses and endeavors, and is confident of witnessing, at an early day, the acceptance and adoption of the be- ( neficent doctrines of Republicanism in every sec tion and subdivision of our common country. The readers of the Tribune will bear testimony that the policies it has oppose! have generally been discarded; the measures it has supported have nearly all been adopted, and that its predic tions have'been singularly verified. The secretof its influence on public affairs is, that it espouses what is right, earnestly, and combats what is wrong, boldly: and the glass with which it sees into the future is implicit faith in the power "Of Truth and the ultimate Triumph of Right. A F/RST CLASS KEWSPAI-UR.—The Chicago Tribune, while fearless in the expression of its opinions, and patriotic in its endeavors, aims at being a First-Class Newspaper. It brings the news to the people of the Northwest several days sooner than the piapers of the seaboard, and sur passes all Us contemporaries in the Northwest in every department of news enterprise. It discusses every subject ofinterest to Western men—moral, political literary, commercial and financial. No Western merchant, banker, farmer, mechanic, drover or manufacturer, can study his own interest and do without it. No farmer should sell a bushel of wheat, corn, oats, or a pound of beef or pork, without reading the Tribune : no manufacturer bis wares: no mechanic the product of his hands, without first consulting its well-fill ed. accurate and reliable commercial columns. The contents of each edition of the Tribune em brace. Ist. A complete current history of the progress of events, with general news of the day. 2d.
