Albert Coxtner.—l lie unfortunate
occurrence of young Contner shooting a
soldier named John Br 'inline, a few weeks
since in Washington city, must be fresh in
the minds of the readers of the Gazette.
The trial came off on Tuesday last. Hon.
J.i 111 es 'I. Hale and Surgeon T. A. Worrall
wore brought into court, und testified as to
the character of the prisoner. The court
was addressed by Mr. King fur the de
fence, and the District Attorney for the
prosecution, when the case was submitted
to the jury, who after an absence of sever
al hours returned with a verdict of tnan
slaughter. lie has not yet received his
sentence. Hrigadc Surgeon, T. A. Wor
rall lias been assigned to duty at Alexan
dria, 1). C. He requests us to refer all
persons having business with him to Dav
id Candor, Esq.
GROUND Hon DAV. —There will be a
fair opportunity this year to test the moot
ed question whether the ground hog is a
better weather prophet than bipeds gener
ally, as last Sunday was a clear dav through
out, and he could not fail to see his shad
ow. If therefore the winter continues six
weeks longer, it may be inferred that Mr.
Ground Hog does know a thing or two;
if spring openj before that, lie must be
like others a mere guesser. an 1 placed in
the same category with other wisehcads.
A NEW DEN. —Joseph l)C Young, 505
Jayne street, Philadelphia, has lately got
up a very superior pen, which, after a
week's use, we find rather superior to any
thing of the kind we have had hold of for
some time. It is India rubber coated, plu
tin a pointed (same as gold pen,) is elastic,
and quite smooth over even rough paper.
We advise our readers to give them a trial,
we think even bad writers will find their
chirography improved by using them.—
The price by the gross is 81.5), including
six holders; or 25 cents per dozen, with
one holder. F. J. Hoffman is sole agent
for their sale in this County.
EguJanies Printz of this place lias been
appointed to a temporary clerkship in the
Treasury Department at Washington (to
sign treasury notes for the Secretary) at a
salary of §>loo per month.
G. W. Siegrist, of the Ist
Pennsylvania Cavalry, J Stewart M'Kwen,
Joseph Grey, and several others whom we
cannot at present recall to mind, have been
or are now on a visit home. Lieut. S.
looks well, and we have no doubt is an effi
cient officer.
Among the recent inventions now

Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
The anual meeting of the stockholders
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company was
held at Philadelphia on the 3d, Mayor
Henry presiding. The report of the di
rectors showed a uet earning for 1861 of
83,646,938, being an increase of 81.350,-
535 over 1800. Nearly the whole increase
on revenue of the Com pany during the year
was derived from the transportation of eas
tern bound freight to meet European de
mand for breadstuff*. The large increase
iu the business of* the Company occurring
subsequently to the declaration of the last
dividend, it was not deemed advisable to
advance the rate. The financial position of
the company, however, is now such, that it
is believed a semiannual dividend of four
per cent, may be paid in May next, and its
continuance thereafter at the same rate is
confidently expected. The committee to
investigate the condition and management
of the company, made majority report
through their Chairman, Hon. Joaeph R.
Ingeraol, approving the management, while
Mr. Page submitted his usual report disap
proving of it

The Best Toilet Article and HairGnrig*
orator in the market,
IS THE
FLORAL HAIR TOHIC,
"PREPARED by the Philadelphia Eclectic
_l7 Company. In cases of baldness, where
the roots are not absolutely dead, it is sure to
bring forth a beautiful crop of hair in from
six to twelve Weeks, and no remedy in the
world can do more. When the hair is inclin
ed to turn gray, or fall out, this tonic will
speedily restore it to vigor and preserve its
original color; at the same time remove all
dandruff, scurf, Ac., and keep the head de
lightfully cool. It is a purely vegetable pre
paration, richly i'xrfcmed, eminently healthy
to the scalp, (which can be said of very few
hair stuffs offered) and most delightful in ef
fect. Price 25 cents.
