The effect of the in peasant chewing large 'quids; is its to enlarge the lips considerably, to dye them a sort of black red, and entirely to alter the Ithapo of the lower part of the face.

FATAL ItIILROAD AcetnENT.—On Friday afternoon of last week, John Graves, a col ored man, conductor on a train of coal cars, was fatally hurt, on the Pennsylvania Rail road, near this place. In attempting to jump from a car, while the train was in mo , Lion, his overhauls caught on the brake, ' and he was thrown with his legs tinder the cars. Before he could be rescued a portion of the train had passed over both legs crush ing them badly. The right kg was frac tured end the left fractured and terribly la cerated. The injured man had the profes sional care of Drs. Mirror and John.

The ac cident occurred nt the switches below the locomotive depot. Tur.Oatcrx or TUE FIRE LtST WEEK.— There is some dispute about the origin of fire of Friday of last week. We stated in our notice of it, on S.tturday last, that it broke out in Mr. Barr's House, which in formation we obtained from Mr. Daniel Ifeisley, who was burned out of the adjoin ing dwelling. Mr. Wien, who occupied Mr. Barr's building requests us to positively deny that it broke out in the house tenanted by him, and declares that the fire was first discovered in the roof of Mr. Ileisley's house. :ire here have opposing statements from the two raoht directly interested par• ties. We do not pretend to attach much public importance to the question. The houses were burned; and what does it mat ter, as long as the fire was accidental, in which building it origino.ted.? As a point of veracity between the two gentlemen, of course it is of interest to them; therefore we are content to leave the settlement of the little difference to the parties concerned. and the formation of en opinion on the mer its of the CCU.' to the public at large. Tr.vrEa.vsca MEETEVC.,-On Mondm , after noon The Cadets of -Temperance „visited Wrightsville to-atfend ,the temperance lec tureAelivered in that Borough by Gen. Ri ley. The Cadets turned Ent some GO mem bers in regalia with banners, &c., and marched across the bridge, at the west end of which they were met by the Susquehan na -Brass Band and escorted Armlet the borough. They then attended the lecture in a body. The address was delivered in the Lutheran- .Church. where a large au dience assemb/cd. The speaker gave gener al satisfaction. In the evening of the Ritmo day Qen. Ri ley spoke in the E. Church of Colain bin, to s erowaed house. His address was forcible and impressive, meeting with the general approbation of the whole audience. The liquor dealers and tavern keepers re ceived a full share of the special denuncia tion meeted out on such occasions to*this suffering class of the community; and far be it from us to say that they got more than their deserts; "if a' things be true" that are asserted of the quality of their beverages. THE MATTOWN PARADEr—On Friday of last week the Lancaster Fencibles arrived at this place by the Atlas Swift Sure Ex press, at 3% o'clock P. M., on their way to Maytown to attend the regimental parade at that place on Saturday. They were re ceived by the Columbia military and es corted by him through the borough, by several of the main streetsi to the Washing ton House, where they were refreshed with drinks all round. From this point the company proceeded by canal- boat to Mariet ta, where they paraded through die borough, and, it is fair to presume, took another "snifter." They were here met lry the Mnytown Infantry and escorted to the place of their destination. in the evening iiiey attended a dramatic entertainment sad ball given by the Infantry, the proCeeds going to defray the expenses incurred 9a erecting their new Armory, a neat and substantial structure: • On Saturday the Jones Artillerists, Capt. Geo. If. If"ss, arrived ile•re from Safe Har bor, via the Susquehanna and Tidewater Canal, and were escorted to the Washington House, where Cul. Herr entertained them with breakfast. After sundry airs from the band of the company, and possibly a drink or so, the Artillerists again took ship and sailed fur the port of Marietta, much to the relief of the parties who were engagod in the destreetion of the famous fish-reeks at Harbor ! which so nearly led to an oathreak of hostilities between the piscators of umbia and the former place. The parade at Maytown was well attend ed, a large majority of the companies com posing the regiment being in the field. The military was under command of Cul. Herr, of our borough, and was by him put through a course of manoeuvres, promptly and creditably executed. The men, con sidering their rawnes in battillion drill ac quitted themselves admirably. The Col. being an old soldier, of course exercised his command with his accustomed ability: He is a popular officer with his regiment, and if his will has influence, will perfect it in its dutict. The Armory of the Infantry was formally dedicated, and the military paraded through the town during a portion of the afternoon. A large concourse of spectators from the neighboring towns and surrounding coun try enjoyed Om unwonted spectacle, and Maytown was gay to its entire satisfaction. The different companies were much pleased with their reception and treatment by the Infantry and the citizens of the town. When are we to be represented by a corn pan.t in these military gatherings? IVe have good material in our town for one or two first-rate Companies, but the spirit seems to be lacking. There is a desire cm the part of many of our citizens to form themselves into a military corps, and were some reliable person to take the lend, some thing might doubtless be accomplished,— The trouble heretofore has been a superflu ity of otkers i every man feeling himself entitled to command, and none disposed to he subordinate. The officers are generally instrumental in organizing a company, and their rivalry has eventuated, on most men- I sions, in a row. We propose that some pa triotic individual who feels in his bosom a military ardor, and has confidence in his capacity to make a good private, shall head a list, and form a company entirely of Fri rates; then, when officers are needed ; let the men elect them :rum the thousands of eager applicants. Thus there will he no malcontents in the ranks, and the disap pointed candidates can get up a company of their own—all officers. New Books, Periodicals, &c T. B. PETERSON & BROTHERS have, this day issued the second volume of their 'new and cheap edition of Charles Dickens' Works for the Million, to be completed in 28 co:dump& one to be issued on each and every Saturd:ty, fur twenty-five cents a vol ume. The cheap literature of former years did not tend much to elevate its readers, but the reading that Peterson now gives, at prices which scarcely cover the cos!.; of printing, is of the very best character, and must exercise a wholesome influence over the public taste, by making all readers Re acquainted with the works of the best fic tion writers in the English language. A reader in the country fur one dollar can have the first four of these volumes trans mitted to him, or the whole twenty-eight volumes will be sent for five dollars. The second volume, issued to-day, contains the conclusion of Oliver Twist and the com mencement of the Pickwick Papers. We have received from the same pub lishers two more volumes, THE HEART OF MID LoTHIAN, and THE FORTUNES or NI GEL, being the 11th and 12th volumes of the cheap edition of the Waverly Novels.

The descriptions of the towns are full and doubtleis in . the • mein correct Slight inaccuracies in focal information or statistics are comparatively aniMportant, but errors relating to the fond which the book is designed to deseribe and illustrate are less pardonable. The author sets Col umbia down as 82 miles from Philadelphia, whereas it is the 80 to the .point where the road enters the borough. The 81st mile carries you alttrost through the town. The following, from the descril tion of,Colembia, will be regarded by our friends over the water as worse than a venial error: "At the other fired of the bridge is the town of Wrightsville, but regarded an en viron of Columbia." In the list crt officers of the road the "Guide" mistakes in naming E.. 1. Speeder, instead of 11. 11. Houston, General Freight Agent. Apart from these little inaccuracies, Mr. Ayres appears to have collected a vast deal of information which will be of interest to travelers, and which be presents in accept able form. - Valuable tables of distances on roads leading from Harrisbttrg, Pittsbarg, and through the states of Ohio and Indiana, are also given. Altogether Mr, Ayres' book will agreeably vary the monotony of a long railroad .iourney, and supply just the local items naturally inquired for by travelers.

It was about six inches square, and by dexterous and delicate manipulation, he formed it into a very good imitation of a butterfly, the wings being extended, and at the most each was one inch across. llold ing the butterfly out in the palm of his hand, to show what it was, he placed two ermdle's which were beside hint, in such a position as to allow him to wave a fan rapidly, with out affecting the flame, and then, by a gen tle motion of his fan ever the paper insect, he proceeded to set it in motion. A coun ter-draught of air from some quarter inter• fered with his efforts, and made the butter fly truant to ids will, and the screen had to he removed a little to remedy this. He then threw the paper butterfly in the air and gradually it seemed to acquire life from the nation of his fan—now wheeling and clipping toward it, now tripping along its edge, now hovering over it, as we may see a butterfly do over a flower on a fine summer's day, then in wantonness wheeling away, and again returning to alight, the wings quivering with nervous restlessness. One could have declared it was a living creature. Now it flew off to the light, then the conjurer recalled it, and presently sup• plied a mate in the shape of another butter fly, and together they rose and played about the old man's fan, varying their attention between flirting with one another and flut tering around the edges of the fan. We re peatedly saw one on each aide of it as he held it nearly vertically, and gave the fan a short quick motion; then one butterfly would pass over to the other, both would wheel as if in play and again return. A plant with some flowers stood in a pot near at hand, by gentle movements of the fan, the pretty little creatures were led np to it, and then their delight! how they played about the leaves, sipped the flowers, kissed each other, and whisked off again with the airs and graces of real butterflies! the audience were in ecstasies, and young and old clapped their hands with delight.— The exhibition ended, when the old man ad vanced to the front of the stage, within arms length of us all, accompanied by his magic butterflies, that even in the open air continued to play round the magician and fan.
