are both urging aid to the contemplated new
Frederick and Pennsylvania Line Railroad.
A meeting was held at Taneytown, Md.,,on
the 6th inst., which was addressed by Capt.

.vere appointed to canvas subscriptions.
The rout proposed for the road will strike
the Maryland State line beyond Littlestown,
pass through Taneytown and Woodsbor
ough,and follow the Monocacy Valley down
to Frederick.
:re,'" HOD: EDWARD MCPHERSON, has been
honored with the appointmont of American
editor, for the present year, of the ..41ut
iiack de Gotha—a noted European publica
tion of high literary and scientific reputa
tion. Not a mean compliment. The Junior
feels somewhat proud of the Firm, embrac
ing as It does the "Nestor" of the Pennsyl
vania Press, an L L. D., and American edi
tor of standard European journals. ,The
only trouble is that the Junior may be lost
sight of under these growing and over
shadowing honors.
F 1 N ED .—On Saturday evening officer
WEUCEnT arrested several persons for fast
driving on Baltimore street, in violation of
the Borough Ordinance. The parties were
from the country and may have been ignorant
of the ordinance. They, however, payed the
required fine and went on their way. Glad
to notice evidence on the part of the authori
ties to enforce this ordinance. A few exam
ples will break up this thing of converting
our public streets into race courses, to exhibit
the speed of feet horses.
ELECTION.—The Pennsylvania Synod,
in session at Philadelphia, which holds the
nomination of the incumbent of the Frank
lin Professorship in Pennsylvania College,
has nominated Rev. REUBEN HILL to the
position made vacant by the resignation of
Prof. MuttLE:snuao.. Mu& was for
merly Pastor of St. lames Church in this
place. The nomination will be submitted to
the Board of Trustees of the College at its
next meeting for confirmation. Last year
the nomination of the Synpd, Rev. Mr. His,
was rejected and instruction in the depart
mentor Franklin Professor has 'been given
under temporary provision of the Board.
CONOWAGO PHOSPHATE.—We invite
the attention of farmers and others to the
advertisement of Messrs. BENSON ct Maus,
of Littlestown, who have commenced the
manufacture of a valuable fertilizer, called
"Conowago Phosphate." Both these gen
tlemen are favorably known as reliable bus
iness men—Dr. BENSON being an experienc
ed piactical chemist, and familiar with the
relations between Science and Agriculture.
A sample of the new fertilizer has been left
in our office, which can be examined by
parties interested. It is the intention of
Messrs. BENSON ct: Meus to enlarge their
works shortly, to enable them to meet the
demand for their Phosphate. We hope the
enterprise may prove a perfect sucoess, and
not only reward the enterprising firm, but
benefit the agricultural interests of the
county.
SCHOOL MATTERS.—The new• School

ing HIRAM WARREN President, T. F. W
OERA.I+A. Secretary, and E. G. FAH ENESTOCK

THE LOCUSTL L —Lnkwee)c ws, fared
to some 11604tdialithiellitie
abounding in Mir I,o odily and mu
sic is ringing in our ears as -we rltS. . We
notice that Dr. Gipsort P. &arm, of Balti
more, an eminent naturalist, some years
ago prepared an interesting account of these
insect" based ; on _close obpertatien during
their last vlsit,seventeenYearsaga. Among
her things he says "they commenotide
positing their eggs about the 15th of June.
You may see a locust attached to a limb or
twig, and it will not fly away as you ap
proach. Look closely, and you will see it
excavating a hole in the limb with its curl-.
ons ovipositor. Watch it closely, and as
soon as it has inserted the ovipositor com
pletely into the limb, take hold of theinsect,
and gently but quickly draw it forward, and
apply the point of the ovipositor to the palm
of the hand, when you will see two eggs
ejected into your hand in quick succession.
They deposit two eggs at each insertion of
the ovipositor, and generally five to ten pairs
in each place on'tbe limb. She then goes to
other places on the same limb, or to some
other limb, and repeats the operation, till
hhe has laid about 400 eggs. The eggs are
white, or pearl color, about the 12th of an
inch long, and about_one sixth as thick as
ahoy aro long. It is this operation that de
stroys the small limbs the excavations cut
ting off the sap vessels. The time of de
positing the eggs continues till ?Mont the 20th
or June, when they cease. All kinds of
tress and shrilly are selected by them for
their deposits except pines or other turpen
tine trees. They do not seem to select the
hardest nor the most soft wood, but that
which is about the size of their bodies or
less, seems to be chosen ; the operation re
quiring them to rasp the sides of the limb
with their claws, which they could not do so
well if the limbs were larger. By grasping
firmly with their claws, they are able to
make great pressure on the point of the ovi
positor, and thus effect their object. From
the Ist to the 20th of June, all shrubbinfe of
value should be protected, either by care
fully covering it with cheap gauze, or in the
case of pot plants, by keeping them in the
house. About the 25th of June, the eggs
will be ready to batch. Then take a limb
containing them, cut carefully till you ex
pose the eggs, and then take them out, place
them iu the palm of the hand, and they will
hatch in a few minutes. The little insect
frees himself from 'the egg precisely in the
same *ay that the lar g e one did in the spring,
by rupturing the shell on his back. As
s`eon as he is fairly out of the shell he starts
oil' bri.shly in search of foal. Let him gdt
to ground and you will see him work his
way into it, follow him and you will see him
attach himself to the tender roots of grass
and otherivegetables, and commence taking
up the liquid exudation from the surface
with his little rostrum or snout. These ob
servations can only be made with a good
magnifying glass. By the aid of the glass
you can see the young insect has every feath
er and member precisely the same as the
arge one had when he came from the ground
in the spring. You can sometimes see
great numbers falling from high trees.—
They are like little motes in the air, and
require sharp sight to see them. They are so
small, and their apparent specific gravity so
inferior, that they are not injured by the
fall. The advent of the locusts is a great
festival for the hogs. And as soon as the
insects appear above the ground, chickens,
turkeys, and all poultry, will also have the
feast. So fond are the fowls, birds, pigs,
c., of.these insects that they will scarcely
touch other food during the locust season.
This has a remarkable effect on all hen eggs
laid after the locusts appear—their yolks
are nearly while. The chickens -become
very fat, and of fine flavor. Even the little
wren will be seen flying off with a locust in
its mouth, and all the inseetiverous birds
then have a great festival."

McPHERSON'S POLITICAL MANUAL
FOR 1863--We are gratified to learn that
Hon. Edward McPherson, Clerk of the
House of Representatives, has in press a
Political Manual for 1868, in continuation of
his valuable manuals for 1866 and 1867.
These publications hafe become standard
in this country, and have had a favorable
reception in Europe._ They are, practically,
an analytical compilation of the political
facts of the , period they embrace, and they
include everything important to a clear and
accurate understanding of the events to
which they relate. They are prepared with
great care, and are marked by exact impar
tiality, and, viewed as a contribution to our
political literature, They are of the highest
value.
A similar work done for our pagt political
history would be an infinite aid to every
student, statesman, scholar, and politician;
but we know of no one who proposes to
himself so herculean an undertaking. '=
The political events which have trans
pired from April, 1868, to July, 1868, have
been of the most important character,
including, asthey do, the:complete develop
ment of the Congressional policy of recon
struction, the adoption by the people and
acceptance by Congress of constitutions in
most of the Rebel States, the attempted im
peachment of President Johnson, and the
preliminary movements in and out of Con
gress bearing upon the pending Presiden
tial election. The volume will contain this
entire record, as well as much more, for we
obierve in the table of contents such refer
ences as the following :
Orders, Letters, Papers, and Votes in the
Senate respecing-Secretary Stanton's HUB-
pension, attempted removal, and final re
tirement, and the confirmation of his suc
cessor.
Articles of Impeachment, with the Votes in
the House, the Reply of the President and
the Judgment of Senate.
Correspondence between General Grant and
President Johnson growing out of. his
with drawaltrom the War oft*.
Grant's Politico-Military Orders in the Field,
and his Political Letters and Record from
1863 to 1868.
The various State Platforms of 1868,. with
the National Platforms of the Repabl
. -
can, and Democratic Parties, and the ?Let
ters of Acceptance of the Candidates.
Votes in Congress upon all. Political Dills
and Resolution.
Abstracts of the New Constitutions of Ma
ryland and New York, and of Alabama,
Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana,
,
' Mississippi, North Carolina, South Caroli
na, and 'Virginia.
Tabular - Statements on Imports and Ex
ports, Debt and Taxation, Revenue and
Expenditures, Estimates and A.ppropria
tions, Banks, 'Registration and Votes in
the South, and Election Returns from 1860
to the present time.
General Political Miscellany, &c.
It is not difioult to see that a book with
so rich contents, carefully prepared, accu
rately stated, and copiously indexed, will
meet a great public want, and naturally
have a large demand.

This action on tbt, part of the Company has

marks, so essential to commercial success,as
well as for the invalid public. Such has be
come the demand for this water in all parts of
the country, thatany trick, however unfair,
is resorted to in order to procure it at a re

way entitled to special favors ; and the gen

ments of this species of smuggling.
To accommodate all classes of consumers
of this water, the Company has decided to

cases of quart bottles, at a corresponding re

LIGHTNING RODS.-The season having
arrived in which di; asters by lightning oc
cur, and as such events are not unfrequent,
the necessity of good lightning conductors
is now generally acknowledged. Yet it is
evident, in many instances, the provision
usually made for the escape of lightning is
so inefficient as to fail to prevent disaster.
11eluxsoN's Copper Rod, however, is a per
fect protection and is pronounced by scien
tific men to be the very best in use, being
made entirely of Copper. Copper being
eight times better conducting .metal than
Iron, and having four inches surface, it fol
lows that it is equal to 20 Iron rods of the or-
dinary size.
The price is so trival, (being put up at 30
cents per foot,) compared with the advant
ages of a certain protection against the ter
rific effects of lightning, that it is certainly
to the interest of all persons to have them.
Why tthen delay so important a iratter,
when a few dollars invested In AlurisoN's
Copper Rod will place you and your prop
erty and family out of danger as long as the
building stands ; or will you delay until the
crash of broken thunderbolts and the vivid
burning of fierce lightning awakes you to
the necessity of this certain protection ?
Samples of.aftrzosox's Copper Rod can be
seen at CoOx's Stove, Tin-ware and House.

MOOR'S LIFE OaF HON. SCHUYLER
COFFAX.—T. B. Peterson, it Brothers, No.
306 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, have in
press and will publish in a few nays, "The
Life of Hon. Schuyler Colfax," written by
Rev. A. Y. Moore, of South Bend, Indiana,
who was for twelve years, as pastor and
friend, in the entire confidence of Mr. Colfax,
and bad access to the files of the paper pub
lished by Mr. Colfax for twenty years, and to
the Congressional Globe; knows all his past
history and all who have known him from
boyhood. He began this biography two or
three years ago, so that it is not one of the
hurried and ephemeral publications so com
mon in election years. Mr. Moore is a gen
tleman of fine talent and culture, and there
is no doubt but that his biography of NI r. Col
fax will be worthy of its distinguished sub-
The following letter from Mr. Colfax to
Rev. A.Y. Moore will explain itself:—
WasnuseTos, D C., May 30.1;3.
"My Dear Mr. Moore:— ,
"As your prediction of a year ago has been
realized, I have no further objection to your
publishing my sketch, more or less full, of
my life, you may have prepared. As you
were for a dozen.years a fellow-townsman of
mine, and a valued friend, I suppose you
know as much about my history as the pub
lic would care about knowing ; and although
my engrossing 0 uties here leave me no time
torevise the manuscript, I have no fear that
your will not be a faitbfu 1 one.
"Yours very truly,
SCIIIJYLER COLFAX.
"Rev. A. Y. Moore, South Bend, Indiana."
It will be published in a lace duodecimo
volumn of five hundred pages, printed from
large type, and on the finest and best of white
papeT, with a portrait, on steel, of Mr. Colfax
executed by one of the first artists in the
country, from photographs taken of Mr.
Colfax within the last week ; the whole
bound in cloth in the most substantial =tu
rner. Price, $1.50 a copy. Canvassers want
ed everywhere. Large discounts given.—
Copies will be sent to any one, at once, post
paid, on receipt of price, by the Publishers.
DEMING'S LIFE OF GRANT.—We have
received from the Publisher, Prailtsit.ze d; Co.
738 Stumm street, Philadelphia, a copy of the
life of Gen. Gassy, by Hon. HENRY C. Dem-
Ixo. Col. Demote's intimacy with Gen.
GRANT and his position as a' member of the
Military Committee in Congress, give him spe
cial facilities for getting up a reliable and in
teresting work, which he has done. The
publishers have brought it out in creditable
style, and it cannot fail to command a ready
sale.
ANOTHER.—The Anterkim- Publishing
Company, Hartford, Connecticut, are about
bringing out a life of Gen GRANT, by ALBERT
D. RICHARDSON, the authorid "yield, Dun
geon and Escape," and "Beyond the Missis 7
aippi." Mr. B. was one of the War cones
pondents of the N. Y. Tribune, is a racy

THE GREAT .
CONOWAGO PHOSPHATE,
TUECeinowago Phosphate I. destined to stand at the
head ofnuteridin Fertilisers. It ham already proved
its SUPERIOR QUALITIES, and ample certificates of
Its high merits will soon be furnished to the public. The
proprietors will spare no weans or pains to make It a
reliable and uniform article. It is superior to Peruvian
Guano, because It is 1101111 Lerma - IN ITS EFFECT
and EQUAL TO IT ON THE FIRST CROP. It does not
over-stimulate the soil, u most of the fertilisers in the
maatot do, and leave the land alter gathering the first
crop In a worse condition than before using it, but it re
main. an active fertilizer in the soll,and continues year
alter year to abovr itself on every crop that is pet to the'
Land.
The Conowago Phosphate contains a large percentage
of Ammonia and Phosphoric acid, which are essential
elements to vegetable food. They either enter dirersty
Into the plant or prepare the a►kalls in tbs sue to do so.
The belie of the Conowago Phosphate Is PURE kali
BONE, completely and thoroughly dissolvedwithout the
use of any volatile agent.
Oneof the great advantages of the Conowago Pb.,
plate is that it will dissolve the sand In the son and . set
the silica tree to be adsorbed by the 'Towles plant,
which ts a very lurportaLt ingredient In giving inenem
and 'strength to the stalk and grain. will preeoet Me
falling and lodging of crops that are forcec up by a wet
and warm 110141100. 1011 w4l greatly incilitatethe ripening
of Me grain and secure iragainat the roe.
Agaucate are being established throughout tbe coun
try wherever fertilisers are sold. We are not afraid to
place it beside the beet In the country.
Let all the farmers and planter, make up their minds
that they will try the drat Conowago Phosphate this
fall.
Price fifty Dollars per ton.
BENSON .k MAUS, Proprietors.
