TO BE READ AND REMEMBERED.— Since the oclu.olidation of the "STAa sl.to Se7rssr„" we have as much - as powilble refrained from annoying our friends with "duns,". and regret thatolirstmiteried finan- c'es require us to Oo so' now. The , truth 17% that with-the increased expenses incident to the enlsrgement of the paper, furnishing our riew office—the cost of piper; type, ink —the employment of hands, I:Sec.—all Of which re• quire cash payments, we are out of pocket at this date, with sundry heavy bills for pa per requiring immediate payment. , We - are, therefore, compelled to call on Our friends to help us out, and THAT AT ONCE. As ail kinds of business are raiiidly passing under the cash system, newspaper men, if they wish to live, will have to follow suit. Notwithatand- ing the enhanced price of paper and print ing materials, whieh.have compelled many of our editorial brethren to ran up their subscription to $2.50 and $3, we continue to furnish the "STAR AND SENTILREL" at the old price—s 2 per annum, cash in advance.— With our enlarged circulation we can afford to do so, if our subscribers will lint prompt ly too the mark. • While $2 may seem but a trifle to each subscriber, when multiplied by 2,000, it be comes a considerable, figure. Creeks and Rivers are made up of t'ny rain-drops, in significantin themselves.. If each rain-drop were to withhold its contribution, and refuse to leave its home in the rain-cloud by, rea- son of its insignificance, ere long the streams would cease tallow, and the mills to grind. J,ust so with subscriptions to neWspapers— each in itself a trifle, but in the aggregate: making a sum total that would make glad the Printer : is heart—take away his troubled dreams—and diffuse bright and cheering sunshine all through the office. Many of our friends have been thoughtful enough to send iu their sl, and they have our thanks. There are, however, a still larger number who have neglected to do so; doubtless be cause each thought his $2, like tho rain-drop but a trifle. Now, friends, suppose you signalize the New Year by starting in thi right direction. Before you lay aside this number of the Paper, take out s2—put it in a letter, directed to the "STAR AND SENTI NEL," and our word for it you will feel all the better for "remembering the 'Printer.'• Try it, friends—aud DON'T DELAY A SINGLE DAY. The truth is, WE WANT MONEY, and MUST HAVE IT! By the printed labels on the paper, each subscriber will at once see the . date to which his subscription has been paid. Distant sub- scribers can remit by mail at our risk, pro- curing Post Office Money Orders when prac- ticable THE NEW YEAR.—With to-day's issue we enter upon the new year, and, send the greetings of the season to our numerous sub scribers—many of whom have been added to our list during the last six months.— There are still a number of Republicans in the county, who do not take a newspaper, • but ought to signalize the' beginning of an othe'sr year by subscribing for the "STAR AND SENTINEL." There is nothing pays better in the family than the few dollars:e±pended ,:for a good newspaper. It will be read by old and young, when books will not be looked at, and thus becomes a valuable educator.: In addition to this, we are entering a year pregnant with important movements, which must largely determine the future of the country—the contest be tween the President and Congress—between the Executive and the Law-making depart ments of the Government—the development of the great problem of Re-construction, in volving in its determination the securing on the one hand, or the ignoring on the other, of the great Republican principle of fhe equality of all men before the law—the selec tion of a President and Vice President, to whom the administration of the Government is to be confided for the next four years—all of which must make the year 1868 one of the most important in the history of the Re public. No a man who respects himself or family, can afford to be without a paper .the coming year. To alk such we say=make a trial of the "STAR AND SENTINEL," at least for a few months, and if after such trial you think it will pay to save $2 a year and do without'A fiimily journal, well and good.— To our pre4ent subscribers, and, especially to those who have heretofore manifested their approval of our efforts to present a readable and instructive paper, we renew our thanks, and request a continuance of their kind offices. Every additional sub scriber thus procured, helps to that extent the circulation of sound Republican princi ples, and makes victory at the polls so much the easier. , ;;;i;is)w; PREMIUMS FOR NEW SUBSCRI BERS.—Our friends will bear in mind tba any one of our present subscribers sending in the names of four new subscribeks, with the , czsh in advance (11,2 per annum), will re- ceive * a credit of one year's subscription on their own account—in other words, for each new subscriber sent In, accOmpanied by the cash, a PREMIUM OF FIFTYPCENTS is allowed as a credit on present subscriptions Some of our subscribers have thus paid their own paper for two and three years in ad vance. The same opportunity is offered to all. Who willi signalize the new year by doing likewise' We again anticipate our usual publi cation day, to enable the hands to observe New Year's day. INSURED.—We learn that 111 r. MAE SHALL, whose barn in Franklin township was burned a few weeks ago, was insured in the Mummasbnrg Company. AGRICULTURAL.—F o r 4gricultural column see fourth page. We have been fa vored with another ititeresting article on Dairy Stock by our friend, D. P. F.; which will appear next week. 1=1;;ZI KlLLED.—Rrcasnn NORRIS, engineer on the Putersourg Railroad, in Virginia, was recently killed by the explosion of a loco motive. He was a son-in-law ofJoas Seff- DEris, formerlk of this Oahe, now of Har risburg. LETTER FRO J 1 EUROiE - .—We give to day on our first page another letter from Europe (Saxony) ; which will be read with interest by the many personal friends 'of T. D. C. Next week we axpeeti to furnish another leiter from Rev. IL L.!Bsumixa, Jr. written from Rome. REDUCED.—The Gettysburg , Gas Com pany has•declired a dividend of 5 per cent. for the last six months. The Dikectors have determined to reduce the price of Gas from 4,5 to, VIM Per 1,000 feet. We hope to see it red uoed ere long to the old pricti, CHRISTMAS.—Cluistmas day 'was duly observed in Gettysburg, all business be ing suspended, while old and young seemed to enter heartily into the enjoyments of the festival. The toyshops had been thronged for days previous antevidently did a thriv ing business. The weather moderated con siderably during the night before Christmas, and the day opened cheerily, with a bright, sun, and comparatively balmy atmosphere. The consequenoe was that the streets, during the morning, presented a lively Appearance, ladies and gentlemen exchanging . calls, while the little folks could be seen hurryipg hither and thither, with bright faces, to re ceive and exhibit the numberless "Christ mas Gilts" by irhich their little -hearts had been made glad. The Brass Band appeared on the streets during the morning, discoursing fine MEMO and attract* mach attention. The "Print era," as constituting the most important personages in the town, we're honored with special serenades, for which, on behalf of the "STAB AND SENTINEL" corps, they have our thanks. , By the way, don't forget the Grand Ball to be given by the Band on New- Year's Night, at Agricnitiiral Hall, the pro ceeds to be devoted to the purchase of new instruments. • In the afternoon a. number of- young men and boys enjoyed themselves in the diamond, by wheeling barrow; blind-folded, the ob jective point - being the flag pole. Much merriment was occasioned by the contesting parties "bringing up" at almoot every con ceivable point but the right one. Towards evening rain set in, driving. most of persons in doors, to finish up the Christ mas festivities amid the home circle. On therwhole, the day passed off pleasantly, no case of drunkeness, or other impropriety, to mar the general good feeling, oocuring under our observation.' DEAD LETTERS.—An absurd paragraph has been going the rounds of the papers, to the effect that the Postmaster General has instructed Postmasters to treat all letters di rected with a lead pencil the same as dead letters, to be forwarded at once to. the Dead Letter office, at IN ashingtou. No such in structions have been issued. While it is de sirable that.all letters be distinctly and legi bly directed, with ink if possible, all letters legibly directed, (whether with pen or pen cil,) and properly stamped, are sent to their destination. By the way, the importance of carefully endorsing and stamping letters is well illustrated in the following paragraph, based on facts submitted by the Postmaster General in his late official Report to Con- MEI 3116DIIIECTED LETTERS.—Ac cording to the Postmaster General's report, not less than a million letters were mailed last year without :signatures, and misdirected, or so badly direc ted, that the address was totally unintelligi ble—these were destroyed. More than a mil lion and a-half others-I,6ll,6BG—wererestor ed to their writers by the care of the dead letter office. Thus it seems that at least two and a-half Millions of mistakes were made in an operation which one would think likely to enlist the sufficient care of the writer, the ad dressing of a letter. These letters contained nearly $150,000 in money ; bills of exchange, deeds, checks, &c., to the value of over $5,- 000,000, and over 49,000 contained photo graphs, jewelry, &c. AN IMPOSTOR.—An impostor has been :ar t ;ely advertising in the eastern papers, over the signature of "S. Johnston, Box 227, Urbana, Ohio," offering to send by mail a book, with engraving of Military Heroes, &c., on receipt of 50 cents and two stamps.— A note from the Postmaster at 'Urbana, to a 4entleinan in this place, who had forwarded the requisite money and stamps, says that "Sam. lgartin,.atiai'S. Johnston, is a swind ler," that he left iJroita a few weeks ago to escape arrest--degetes being on his track. He will doubtlesiiturn up somewhere, and the public would do well to keep on thtOr guard. In Ohio, he has been operating as an assumes agent for Greeley's History of the War, collecting half the money in ad vance. CAN'T AFFORD IT. —We notice that a number of our , exchanges suspend their publications-fora week during the Christ was holidays, to enable all hands to have a .00d time generally. We don't understand it. Either our brethern who indulge in such luxuries, have a very indulgent set. of subscribers, or their papersare not duly ap preciated. We can't afford such luxuries.- -- Pie "STAB AND SENTINEL," in its weekly visitations, has become not only a conven ience, but a necessity, and to suspend its publication for an entire week would pro duce quite as much commotion as blotting out the sun for the time being. So we have to suffer the per alty of turning out a reada ble paper and having subscribers who can appreciate and value a good thing. THE ASYLUM PROJECT.—We notice by the Philadelphia papers that Attorney General BREWSTER persists in his determi nation to arrest the "Gettysburg Asylum" scheme by legal process, on the grounds of its alleged illegality. His application to the Supreme Court for the issue of a writ of quo warranto to restrain the managers from fur ther proceedings under the Act, made last summer, is to be argued at the January ses sion of the Supreme Court in Philadelphia. PROPERTY SALES.—Hon. D. Ziegler has sold to Samuel Wolf a lot of five acres on the Railroad, at $125 peracre. Samuel Wolf has sold to Edward Menchy a lot of 31 acres, in Cumberland township, near the borough line, at $125 per sere. Mr. Menchy has also purchased 41 acres of woodland in Highland township, from Benjamin Johnson, at $5O per acre. MASONIC.—The Masonic Fraternity of this place celebrated "St. John's Night" last Friday evening, by a social re-union in the Lodge room. P. W. M., it. G. ELtitnta and other brethren responded to calls, giving some interesting reminiscences _of the Or der, after which the , Lodge partook , of. s handsome entertainmi3nt, which had been prepared in Agricultural Hall—over 60 per sons being present. The following gentlemen have been elected officer's of "Good Samaritan Lodge" for the ensuing year : W. IL, Dr. J. W. C.)o'Netl; W., Capt. J. F. M'Creary ; J. W., D. A. Bueh ler; Treasurer, John Rupp; Secretary, Maj. H. S. Benner. COBREPTIO N.—Our "Carrier" and "Devil" advise tes that we made a--serious lstake last week in suggesting to the as . one of the "STAR AND SENTINEL" to get th'eir "dimert and quarters" In readiness for the New Year's oej,l of Name interesting and important personageri, Ind Insist , that the phrase should have been—"uussnute and HALVES." We stand corrected, and our readers will govern themselvesaccordingly. FIRE.—The exterusive. establishment of Mr. F.'R.urrss, manufacturer of-the "Zinged Bttters," in Harrisburg, was Windy, de stroyed by Bre on Thursday night last. 'Loss about $25,000, of which $17,000 are covered by insurance. Mr. Rennin - formerly resided in Littlestown. WRITI N Q.—Justus HAI at the We;shington House; - proposes to open a Writing School in this plus, and has "bib_ ited to us handsome specimens of his pen manship, with creditable testimonials.

NATIVE WINES —Some time since we stopped at Passaic, and were really surpris ed to see the old store houses there all filled with wine on storage. The amount of Mr. Speer's stock of Port Grape Wine on hand is almost fabulous.— Four storehouses are filled, and tiers upon tiers of casks up and down stairs, and in some cases huge vats, occupy every availa ble spot, leaving only little alley ways through which to walk. It is an illimitless quantity of wine. None is sold until it has acquired the age of four years, and the build ings, 1,2, 3 and 4, are of the first, second, third and fourth years vintage. Our drug gists have some of the olde- t of the above wine direct from Mr. Speer.—Patersonian. THE SHARES of the Washington Libra ry Company of Philadelphia are being dis posed of with unexampled rapidity. The absence of all concealment, the honesty of purpose manifested by those who first in augurated the enterprise, the fairness with which the proposed final distribution is to be conducted, and the patriotic purpose to which the entire surplus is to be applied, have taken ,firm bola' upon publ confi dence. Every share of sthck will beacCom partied by a present at the great distribution of $300,000 worth of presents. Geo. A. Cooke dr.
