ALMANAC FOR -1868.—We present seen
of our subscribers, with to-day's issue, ail
extra containing a convenient Connting
House Almanac for 1868. _
CIIIIRCH SERVICES.—We are reqoest
ed to announce that Prof. EHBEILILET, ok
this place, will preach in the Presbyterian
church, at Hunterstown, on Sunday next
at 101 o'clock, A. M.
CHRISTMAS.—We anticipate our usual
publication day, to enable . all hands to ob
serve Christmas, and send greetings to all
our patrons, with ;Slap compliments of the
season. A "merry dhristmas" to all, old
and. young.
• CARRIER'S ADDRESS.—By sutpry
tnystevous arrangements in progress be
tween our "devil" and the carrier, we infer
that the usual New Year's carol is in prepar
ation and that they will honor their friendi
with a call on New Year's morn. We give
this hint in advance, that the "dimes" and
"quarters" may be got in readiness.
NEW YEAR'S BALL.—The Gettysburg
Brass Band will give a grand Ball on New
Year's Night, in Agricultural Hall, the pro
ceeds to be devoted to the purchase of new
Instruments. One of the best Cotillion
Bands of Baltimore has been engaged for
the occa.-16h. 'Tickets, admitting a gentle
man and ladies, $l.
THE COLFAX LECTURE. - --We learn
that there is it surplus of about $45, from
proceeds of the Colfax Lecture in this place,
after payment of, expenses. The committee
who had charge of the' arrangements, have
determined to appropriate the surplus to the
relief of the poor, and Mr. McPzizasos,
chairman of the otnnmittee, has paid over to
R. G. MCCE.F.ARY, Esq., the surplus, to be
appropriated accordingly.
FAIR AT NEW OXFORD.—Tht Ladies
of New Oxford design to hold a Fair for the
benefit of the Brass Band of that plticea,om
mencing on Tuesday the 31st instant, and
closing on the'lli of January. The Fair will
be held in Dr. PFEIFFER'S College building.
A number of Fancy Articles have been pre
pared, and it is to be hoped these commend
able efforts of the Ladies of New Oxford
will meet with a liberal response. A supper
will be provided for New Year's night.: ;
NEW BUILDING:3.—A. R. FELSTEL is
putting upanother dwelling hotnie on Breck
enridge street.
JACOB BOLLINGER, Jr., has in course of
erection a dwelling on the same street.
JoHN Zia:A has nearly completed a dwel
ling on West Middle street.
Joan TAWN&Y has bought a lot from
FREDERICK. RIDOLY, in the same street, with
a view to building a house thereon before
spring.
Mrs. Merits WIROTZREY is about having
a dwelling put up, on West High street, op
posite the Fair Grounds.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN ?—By notice in
to-day's paper it will be observed that the
Annual Meeting of the Stockholders of the
"Gettysburg Railroad Company," and elec
tion of officers, is to be held "at the office of
the President, in Columbia," on the 13th of
January. We had supposed the office of the
Company was in Gettysburg. When and
why was it transferred to Columbia? By
the-way, several years ago a number of
the Stockholders made gratuitous assign
ments of their Stook, under representations
that a company of capitalists, on such assign
ment being completed, were prepared to
take charge of the road, meet the floating
debt, and extend the road. What has, be
come of this suck? If Mr. CAsE holds it—
on what conditions?
GETTYSBURG ASYLUM—In the House
of Representatives, at Washington, Mr.
VAN WYCK, of New York, offered a resolu
tion directing the commissioner of internal
revenue to inform the House whether the
directors of the enterprise professing to be
for the relief of wounded soldiers, and
known as the Gettysburg Gift Enterprise,
had paid the revenue license for lotteties.—
Mr. VAN WYCK demiunced the scheme as
one of the most atroc'ous swindles of the
times, stating amrng other things, that the
`.l.Fariii" advertised as one of the prizes at
31; 1,000, is worth in reality hut $B,OOO. We
had thought Attorney General BEW.WSTEIL
bad "squelched" this enterprise last sum
flier by instituting legal proceedings against
it. It seems, however, the Managers have
started afresh, opening an office in ~New
York city, and announcing a drawing to
take place ou 'the Bth of Febtuary. Some
how or other they managed to get an en
dorsement of the "Gift Festival" as a "chari
able enterprise," and exempt froth revenue
licenSe, from Commissioner ROLLINS.—
Hence Mr. VAN Wzckcs resolution, which
was adopted by the House.
ADVERTISING SALES OF PROPER
TY.—A cotempory, in speaking of the im
portance and great advantage of advertising
sales of property in the newspapers, in ad
dition to having handbills printed, very
truthfully says : "A newspaper is read by
hundreds who never see the attractive bills
which are posted up in the taverns and store
rooms. Every subscriber to a eotuittnr pa
per reads all such advertisements carefully.
Ho knows who is selling out and exactly
what is offered for sale. The advertisenients
are a topic of conversation when friends
meet, and arrangements are made for at
'tending sales. The result is a large crowd
zpinted bidding, and a realization of ten,
twenty or fifty times of what it cost to ad
vertise. No money is so sure to return a
large profit as that spent on printer's ink.,
A single attlitional bidder on a single article
will pay all 4t costa to advertise a sale of per
sonal property in a newspaper." Is it not
strange, thO t s. that any one should fill to ad
vertide ? sale of Personal or Real Pro
pertyl advertised in the "STAR AND Storri-
NEL," pt a cost of a few dollers, will attract
the atbittion of over 2,000 Asubecribers, not
ono-tenth of whom will seethe hand-bills.—
Let our friends think of tbis matter.
LECTURES.—A Course of Lectures, un
der the auspices of the Pigenakosmian and
Philomathean Societies of Pennsylvania
,College, will be delivered, during the next
session, commencing on the 21st of January. .
It is expected that some of the leading Lee:
tuners of the country will be secured for the
course. The committee dimmed with the
arrangements, are in correapondence with
such distinguished lecturers and orators as.

AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITU
TION.—A 'meeting was held in Christ
Church, in this place, on Thursday evening
last, to further the movement to secure cer
tain religions amendments to the Constitu
tion of the United States, and was opened
with prayer by Rev. Dr. BROWN. R. G
MCCREARY, E.sq4 was called to the chair,
and D. A. BUEHLER, Esq., appointed Secre- .
terry. Rev. Dr. HAY, alter explaining the
object of tho meeting, introduced Rev. J J.
STEVENSON, of PhiLadelphia, who discussed
at considerable length the nature of civi
government—its dependence on the Divine"
will, and the importance of public and oh
vial acknowledginent of this dependence in
State and National Constitutions. After
some further remarks by Rev. Drs. HAY and
BnowN, the lollowing preamble and resolu
tioniswere unanimously adegted—being in
substance those adopted a' the last annual
meeting of the National Asiociation :
Wherca.s, It is a most certain truth, re
ceived by all denominations of Christians,
that Almighty God is the source of all au
thority and power in civil government, and
that His moral laws are of supremo author
ity in all national as well as individual life
And affairs, and,
Wherems, Nations, as such, are under Hi s
moral go . vernment, and are responsible to
Him, and are rewarded and punished ac
corilini, to their moral coudlict as nations,
and,
Whereas, In the character and profession
of the vast majority of our citizens, as well
as in maby elements of our governmental
organization, we are a Christian nation, and
therdfore have an Inaliony.bla right, and are
under the most sacred•obligations to govern
ourselves in a Christian manner, and,
Whereas, We, as a nation, have experi
enced throughout our whole history, and es
pecially during the late civil war, the most
signal manifestations of God's providential .
mercy, £1.9 well as of His just displeasure for
our national sins, therefore, Resolved,
1. That our duty and gratitude to God as
national Governor, Protector, and Preserver,
and our need of securin,r His favor, and of
averting His displeasure, require that we
distinctly and explicitly acknowleflge Him :
His Son as the Ruler among the nations, and
the authority of His Word, in the great
charter of our national existence and pow
ers—the fundamental and organic law of the
land. •
2. That such an amendment of our Na
tional Constitution implies no more than the
exercise of the inalienable right of a Christ
ian people to acknowledge their .God and
Preserver; and would do no injustice to
those few individuals among us who are the
enemies of the Christian -religion, and who
claim the right to prohibit the nation, as
such, from all Ibligions worship, and whose
claims cannot be satisfied without abolish
ing all laws for the observance of the Sab
bath, and banishing all religious worship
and all chaplains from the army and navy
of the United States.
On motion of Dr. Hex, the Chair appoint
ed an Execulive Coininittae. to take charge
of the movement in this county, In co-oper
ation, with the National Association, with
authority , to cal , future public meetings,
when deemed desirable. Committee—Rev.
H. L. Baugher, D. D., -Rev. C. A: Hay, D.
D., Rev...E. Breidenbangh, Rev. W.' R. H.
Deatrich, and Rev. G. W. House.
Adjourned with prayer by Rev. Mr
B*EIDZIfBAI7O4.
"HOW CAN YE BLOOM SO FRESH

the confidence and affections of the people.;
The reason is obvious. The design is worthy,
and. creditable to the patriotic, hearts who are
labOring to benefit a too much neglected'
chnis. The funds go into responsible hands
and the public have no fears, that they will!
be mis-directed. The plan adopted satisfies
the scruplei of the' most conscientious, and
has the endorsement of eminent legal au-,
thority. It is by its distinctive features en-',
tirely removed from the taint of catch-penny
schemes which have so often been the means
of imposing on the public. It gives to pur
chasers ot,its stock a full equivalent for the
consideration, paid, besides equal and impar-::
tial participation in a great distribution of
presents, worth in, the aggregate $300,000.
All its transaotlone, are open and above':
board. It has no concealments, and the rep
utation of the managers is such that they
cannot afford to be dishonest in this trans
action. Read advertisement. It

525 MILES
OF THE
UNION PACIPIC RAILROAD,
I?.U.NNING WEST FROM: 0.3.1.4111 A
ACROSS THE CONTINENT,
ARE NOW COMPLETED
This brings the line to the eastern base of the Rocky
Mountains, and it ((expected that the track will be laid
thirty miles fUrther, to Evans paes, the.highest point on
the road, by January. The maximum grade from the
foot of the mountains to the summit is but eight,' feet to
the mile, while that of many eastern roads is over one
hundred. Weak in the rock-cuttings on the western
slope will continue through the winter, and there !s now
no reason to doubt that the entire grand line to the Pa
rifle will be open for business
The means provided for the construction of this Crust
Nati-nal Wora are ample. The United Statea grants its
Six Per Cent. Bundratt the rate of from 316,000 to 348,000
per mile, ;or which it takes a setand lien as /security, and
receives naytnent'to a large if not to the full extent uf its
claim in services. These Bonds aro issued as each twen
ty Mile section is finished, and after it has been examin ,

in all reenacts a first-class road, thoroughly supplied
with depots, repair-shops, stations, and all the necessary
rollinc stock and other equipments.
The United States also makes a donation of 12,800 acres
of land to the mile, which will bee source of large revs,-
nue to the Company. Much of this land in the Platte
Valley is among the most fertile In the world, and other
large portions are covered with heavy Mu( turrets end
abound in coal of the best quality.
The Company is also authorised to issue its own first
Mortgage Bonds to an amount equal to the issue of the
Oiove'?ninent and no more. Hon. E. D. Morgan and lion.
'lakes Ames are Trustees for the Ikmdholders, and deliver
to, Bonds to the I ompany only as the work progresses,
so that they always represent an actual and productive
