"Thou shalt be hidden from the scourge of the
ton gne."—Job qr. It.
Forget not, Lord, Thy promises
To those who trust in Thee,
Close not Thy ears unto their cries,
- Nor from their presence flee.
'For,Thou art mighty in Thy strength,
And we are weak and frail;
' To combat evil without Thee
What would our powers avail?
'0 Lord ! how long must we endure—
How long the scourge abide,
Before Thy arms shall fold us round,
Thy love our sorrows hide ?
We plead the promises of old, •
Weary and faint we cry,
Withhold not, Lord, Thy sheltering grace
When unto Thee we fly!
And lo S the still, small voice is heard—
" Abide in hope and trust,
Thy Saviour bore for thee this scourge,
And what art thou but dust?
'wile thorns that pierce shall weave a crown,
Which one day thou shalt wear,
When hidden from this fiery scourge
His presence thou shalt share.
"But hope not, while on earth you walk,
God's chastening rod to flee;
Jtather,lift up thy heart in praise
That thus He ohasteneth thee:
"Not with fierce trials born of chance,
Nor sorrows steeped in sin,
Mast thou to walk thy pilgrimagq,
His courts to enter in.
- "He gives to thee thy every wish,
Reserving only one,
`To draw thee always near to Him,
And to His Saviour Son."
The still, small voice was heard no more ;
But round me and above
God's holy angels seemed to float,
And all was peace and love.

CARD
The Executive Committee of the National
-Orphans' Homestead Association take the
opportunity of a special meeting, convened
November 23d, 1866, to express their grate
ful sense of the kind and efficient co-opera
lion of the Associate Board of Ladies and
'Gentlemen of Gettysburg, in completing the
Homestead, in arranging for the inaugura
tion ceremonies of the 20th, and in provid
ing> for the entertainment of the guests
among the hospitable families of the town.
Our relations t 6 the Associate Board have
been so eminently pleasant and - satisfactory,
that we look with sincere pleasure tO their
continuance in the future.

TH. DAILY EVENING BULLETIN
Important Alcoholic Decision.
The annexed correspondence of Collector
Slnanaker and Deputy Commissioner Har
land explains. itself:
COLLECTOR'S OFFICE, UNITED STATES
INTERNAL REVENUE, FIRST DISTRICT, PA.,
247 South Third street, PHILADELPHIA,
November 19th, 1866.—50n,.R. •A.
Rollins,
Commissioner of Internal Rev
enue, Washington, D. C:—Six, : Many of
the first-class wholesale druggists of. this
city, who are large purchasers and con
sumers of the of alcohol, have Applied
to this office to know what mark or stencil,
lien*, of the United States, should be placed
upon the barrels containing this article as
security for them in its purchase. On ex
amination I find in the latter part of para
graph 142,0 f the new compiled law, the follow
ing: "And,all spirits. after being removed
from the - original package in which they
were inspected and gauged, into another
package for the purpose of rectification, re
distillation, or change of proof, shall again
be inspected, and gauged and properly
branded, and the absence of an inspector's
brand shall be taken and held as sufficient
cause of evidence upon which any spirits so
found may be forfeited." While alcohol is
not a rectified spirit, strictly so speaking, it
is nevertheless a redistilled spirit, and under
the strict interpretation of the above quoted
law, I am clearly of the opinion that it
should be marked by a United States general
inspector, as a medium of protection to those
who go into the open market at first pur
chase, for without this the Government and
the public would necessarily be put to much
inconvenience independent of the fact that
its unmarking is subject- to much fraud.
Therefore, will you please decide the follow
ing question of law at your earliest conve
nience:
Does alcohol, being a distilled spirit, but
not a rectified article, require a general in
spector of spirit's brand and gauge thereon
to prevent it from being subject to forfeiture
when open to sale in the usual course of
market?
Trusting to hear from you at an early day
on the subject,
I remain yours, truly,
" A. B. SLoANAKEM, Collector.
REPLY.
TREASURY DEPARTMENT, OFFICE OF IN
TERNAL REVENUE, WASHINGTON, Nov. 20,
1866.—A. B. Slocazaker, Esq., Collector of the
First District, .Pa.—SIB: In reply to your
letter of the 19th instant, I would state that
when the character of spirits is changed, by
being made into alcohol, the law requires
that it should be inspected and the packages
containing it, after its character has been
thus changed, properly branded by a. united
States general inspector of spirits. But
there may be circumstances when a pack
age of alcohol need not have upon it the
inspector's mark, as when it has been
removed from a package which has been
inspected for the purpose merely of being
placed in another package or vessel for
use or for immediate sale to customers,
without the additional change in character.
The absence of the Inspector's mark on
packages containing alcohol, will be e_vjoi- • ce
sufficientto justify a seizure by the collet..
unless he is satisfied the requirem'ents
of the law have been complied with. In
order to save such packages from forfeiture,
the party in whose possession they are
must be able.to show that the tat has been
paid. Very respectfully,
THOMAS HARLAND,
Deputy Commissioner.
Facts and Fancies.
There are people , who would. "botanize
on their grandmother's grave," and in the
midst of the scene last night, while Brignoli
and Ferranti were floundering helplessly
through the "Quando anpus," and Parepa
was tugging them along, with her, "Para.
disi Paradisi,"— an infuriate
punster growled out, "They 're a pair o'dizzy
blockheads!"
The cholera is racing in the oil regions of
West Virginia. A number of the oil-com

Irish merchants of New York have offered
any number of ships to the Fenians. Tnis
anxiety of the New Yorkers to get rid of

highly praiseworthy.
Mr. Ehrlicher has invented a sance . Ett his

Several gentlemen in New York have

They are at work in North Carolina un
earthing the remains of a monster,probably
of the saurian species, which surpasses in
size any relic of the primitive era swhich has
yet been discovered. They began - disen
gaging the monster from the bank in which
it is imbedded several weeks ago, and have
already unearthed eighty-five feet without
coming to either extremity ! Phew ! Eighty
five feet and no extremities? How many
do they expect?
At Danville, Va., the 15th inst.,three silver

SENATOR WRIGHT'S WILL.—The will of
the late Senator William Wright of this
city, was admitted to probate last week in
the Surrogate's office of this county. The
entire valuation of the estate was sworn at
one million dollars, of which $600,000 are in
real estate and $400,000 in personal property.
All of this is devised to the family except
$l,OOO, which is given to the House of Prayer.
The homestead, outbuildings and adjoining
property on Park Place,running through to
River street, is given to the widow for her
use during her lifetime, and after her death
goes to her children.
The sum of $15,000 is given to his grandson,
and $lO,OOO to his grand-daughter, children
of Mrs. (lavers, his daughter in Russia, and
a like sum respectively to the son and
daughter of his only son, Colonel E. H.
Wright. The rest of the property is to be
equally divided between the widow, son and
daughters—the latter's portion being secared
to her for her sole use. Provision is made
in case of the death of any one of the lega
tees for dividing their share among the sur
vivors of the legal representatives. The
will is dated Feb. 17, 1866. United States
revenue stamps to the value of five hundred
dollars were attached to the will, when it
was admitted to probate.:—Newark Adver

THE RuTLArqu QuAnams.—The Rutland

constant employ at the quarries about two
hundred and sixty-five men, four steam
cutting machines, two -steam dericks and
three other mechanical appliances for the

Horrattmr. AocrmErrr.—The tTtica (N.Y.)
papers give the particulars of a runadvay
accident that`occurred at Holland Patent, 11
miles north of Utica, last Saturd iv after
noon. Mrs. Ward, wife of Nathaniel Wird,
Jr., a most estimable woman, and the cen
tre of an affectionate family circle t started
with her little boy to attend the meeting of
the Baptist Church at the Patent, whereshe .
was to meet her husband and daughter.
After going a little way the horse became
restive, when the little boy became fright
ened and returned home. Soon afterward
the vicious beast became unmanageable and
started to run. Mrs. Ward, in attempting
to jump, caught ' her hoop-skirt on the
springs, and was thus dragged a mile and a
balf over a rough. and stony road. She fi
nally became disentangled, and was found
moat horribly torn and lacerated, and life
nearly extinct. Her clothing was scattered
along the road, and even her shoes and
stockings were torn from her feet. One arm
and one limb broken, her head nearly
scalped, and the flesh in several places torn
to the bones, tell how great must have been
the sufferings of the unfortunate victim.
'Death soon relieved her of her sufferings.
BURNED TO DEATH.—On Thursday night
last, at Warren, Pa., a fire broke out in a
temporary cabin on a fiat boat that had
come down the river from Allegheny, Cata
raugus county, New York, loaded with pro
visions, and which was tied up in the War
ren Eddy for the night. As soon as the fire
was discovered, a large number rushed
down there only to find that a boy of twelve
years Phillip Hicks, a son of Jefferson
Hick; who owns the St. Charles Hotel at
Oil City, was burned to death, and Joel
Truesdell, the mon who owns the boat, se
verely burned about the face, head and
other parts of his person. There was a quan
tity of straw in the cabin at the time the
conflagration took place, and it therefore
supposed that the boy was so suffocated by
the smoke as to be rendered unconscious of
his danger. The fire was quickly put oat,
but not before the arms and face of the un
fortunate boy were badly charred. Mr.
Truesdell was terribly burned, bat there
are hopes that he will recover.
