LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
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. ,

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. See
advertisement. "".

MESSRS. EDITORS :—My loyally to the
township in which I teach has induced me
to correct a mistake which occurred in a late
"STAR AND SENTINEL " Tyrone was re
ported as being one of the townships, the
teachers of which were not granted any
time to attend the late Convention.* ° I , O al
low such a mistake to pass unnoticed would
he doing injustice to our Directors, who have
promised not to "require us to teach more
than two, and possi,bly not more than one, of
the days spent there.
A TYRONE TEACHER.
*lt is proper to say that in the Official Re
port furnished to us by the Secretary of the
Convention, Tyrone was in.the list of dis
tricts which had not granted any time to
reachers.—E privies.
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. Co., bankers, 33 South
Third Street, Philadelphia, are receivers of
all the funds, and their name is an assurance
of the integrity and reliability of the Com
pany, which is organized fur a goo 4 purpose
which should not be confounded with the
bogus concerns that infest the country.—

Sheller as the beet in America," and at the request
of J. C. Derby, U. S. Agent, a machine has been.
shinned to Parls for exhibitins. .one important
feature in this machine is that It willlshell earn
