Letter from Harrisburg.
[Correspondence of The Press.]
llariusberg, September 4, 18G1.
After an absence of some three weeks from
Camp Curtin, I to-day paid it a hasty visit. I
could hardly believe it possible that such a
change as presented itself could be effected in
so short a space of time.
Owing to the brief stay of previous com
manding oncers at the camp, the slovenlv
character of raw recruits, and the absence of
proper police regulations, it had been allowed
to assume an appearance highly discreditable
to its location near the capital of the State;
but, Governor Curtin having appointed Lieut.
Col. Thomas Welsh, of York, late of tlio
Second Regiment three-months volunteers, to
its command, with the rank of colonel, that
officer entered upon the duties of the camp
with an earnestness and success which gives
assurance that he wiU not be wanting in those
of the field.
Under his auspices and direction, ably as
sisted by Capt. D. J. Unger, the quartermaster
at the camp, a better state of affairs has been
inaugurated;, proper drainage has been at
tended to, all inequalities of the ground leveled,
strict cleanliness and discipline enforced, and
officers and men alike made to know and do
their duty. Camp Curtin, as it now appears,
with its long lines of tents arranged with the
utmost regularity, its clean and spacious streets,
its. hard-beaten and ample parade, and the
strict order prevailing among its three thou
sand occupants, is not only a credit to the
State, but a monument to the zeal and industry
of its commander. - *
Colonel Welsh has authority to raise a regi
ment under the last call upon Pennsylvania,
but so arduous have been his duties that he
has literally had no time to attend to his own
immediate interests. From what I saw of
him and heard of his conduct in the war with
Mexico, I should ask no better man nor more
gallant leader.
I also met Colonel Hartranft, of the niucli
abused « Fourth.” It is not generally known
that this brave officer (although his regiment
refused to do their duty) served on the staff
of Colonel Franklin during the day of our
disastrous defeat at Bull Run. He is going
back again for the war, and I know of no man
of whose regiment I would more willingly
form a part than his, or that of Colonel Welsh.
All hands here are hard at work. Outsiders
have not the slightest idea of the onerous na
ture of the duties of the different depart
ments. Hastily yours, Cheltenham.
We have received the following circular from
Clearfield county. It speaks for itself:
To the Democrats of Clearfield County -
We, the undersigned Democrats, believing that
the only way to gain an honorable peace, and to
preserve the Union, is to utterly cram this wicked
rebellion by the military and moral powers of the
Government; that it is the duty of all good citi
zens, without respect to party, in this hour of
peril, to rally to the support of the Government
against the assaults of traitors, whether armed or
in our midst giving aid and comfort, and that any
half-way policy or pretended scheme of compro
mise with the rebels at this time is only calcnla
ted to encourage rebellion, divide the Union, and
disgrace ns as a nation; and, believing further,
that the patriotic course of such Democrats as
Hon. Joseph Holt of Kentucky, Hon. Andrew
Johnson of Tennessee, Gen. Butler of Massachu
setts, Gen. Dix and Daniel S. Dickinson of New
York, aad the late Stephen A. Douglas of Illi
nois, in giving their powerful aid to the present
Administration in suppressing treason and rebel
lion, merits the approval and imitation of all true
Democrats.
Be, therefore, utterly repudiate and spit upon a
great portion of the platform laid down bv the late
Representative Convention held in the borough of
St. Mary’s, Elk county, by a few would-be leaders
of our party—who in their zeal to destroy the Re
publican party would risk the destruction of this
glorious Government, and call upon the Democrats
of Clearfield county who would not have fastened
upon them and their party the odium of disloyalty
and treason, and who agree in sentiment with us,
to unite in taking measures to have persons to re
present us in our Legislative assemblies wbo are in
favor of maintaining their Government and the Union
(no matter what party or person for the time being
administers that Government) at all hazards, ana
at every sacrifice, and who are opposed to treating
with armed rebels and traitors on any terms.
To effect this object, we invito allgood Democrats
to meet at Cqrwensville, on Tuesday evening, Sep
tember Sd, 1861, to take such action as may be
deemed best under the circumstances.

Seqaestration of Property in the Rebel
States.
The Richmond Examiner gives an abstract of
a very important bill passed by Congress shortly
before the adjonrnment, for the sequestration of ail
Northern property found'in the South. The fol
lowing is the principal clause :
But enacted by the Congress of the Conftde‘
rate States, That all and every, the lands, tene
ments, hereditaments, goods and chattels, rights
and credits within these Confederate States, and
every right and interest therein held, owned, pos
sessed, or enjoyed, by or for any alien enemy, since
the 21st day of May, 1861, except such debts
due to an alien enemy as may have been paid into
the treasury of any of the Confederate States prior
to the passage of this law, be and the same are
hereby sequestrated by the Confederate States
of America, and shall be held for the full
indemnity of any true and loyal citizen, a resident
of these Confederate States, or other person
aiding said Confederate States in prosecution of
the present war between said Confederate States
and the United States of America, and for which
he may suffer any loss or injury under the aet
of the United States to which this act is re
taliatory, or nnder any othor act of the United
States, or of any State thereof, authorizing the sei
zure or confiscation of the property of citizens or
residents of the Confederate States, or other persons
aiding said Confederate States, and the same shall
be seized and disposed of as provided for in this
act: Provided, however , when the estate, proper
ty, or rights to be affected by this act were or are
within some State of this Confederacy, which has
become such since said twenty-first day of May,
then this act shall operate upon and as to such es
tate, property, or rights, and all persons claiming
the same from and after the day such State became
a member of this Confederacy, and not before: Pro
vided, further, that the provisions of this act shall
not extend to the stoclrs or other public securities
of the Confederate Government, or of any of
the States of this Confederacy, held or owned
by an alien enemy, or to any debt, obligation,
or sum due from the Confederate Govern
ment, or any of the States, to sneh alien enemy.
And [provided, also, That the provisions of this
act shall not embrace the property of citizens or
residents of either of the States of Delaware, Mary
land Missouri, or of the District of Co
lumbia, or the Territories of New Mexico, Arizona,
or the Indian Territory south of Kansas, except
such of said citizens or residents as shall commit
actual hostilities against the Confederate States, or
aid or assist the United States in the existing war
against the Confederate States.
Sections 2 lo 13 provide for the appointment of
receivers in each county, and impose a penalty of
$2,000 on all who may endeavor to conceal the
ownership of property belonging to alien enemies.
Section 14 provides for the appointment of three
commissioners to take charge of the sequestration
fund, and to hear and decide on ail claims against
it.
What a New York Business Man Says.
[From the Albany Evening Journal.]
There are many good speakers who are zealously
working to uphold the Government, who need no
thing more than a hint like that contained in the
following letter from one of the most observing
and thoughtful business men in the city of New
York, to set themselves at work in a manner that
would tell directly, and in an important degree,
upon enlistments. To their attention, particularly,
we commend the letter :
“ New Yoke, August 28,1861.
Respected Sib : Having returned from a trip
through a portion of our own and the Eastern
States, I thought possibly the result of my ob
servations and inquiry might give you some idea of
the cause of s» few men enlisting, compared With the
early stage of the war.
“ At that time every village and hamlet had its
speaker, depicting the necessity for immediate
action of our young men.
“Many who were brought to sea their young
friends off were imbued with the desire, and joined
their comrades; but during the three weeks I was
absent I saw no notice or heard of no public gather
ing to arouse the masses to further action.
“ If our public speakers would organize to stump
the State, or the committees of our different dis
tricts would arrange for mass or town meetings,
and have the young farmers and those outside of
the present beat of recruiting officers, and to see
how necessary it is for them to act, there would be
no difficulty in making up not only the twenty-five
thousand promised by this Stale, but double that
number.
“There is no reaction in feeling, but further
stimulants are required, which proper organization
would soon give.
“ Excuse this liberty, but I feel we have no
time to lose. Yours, Ac.”
Benzole On account of the high price or
turpentine, attempts are making to introduce ben
zole into general use as a substitute for the former.
There are some facts that should be known, for the
public safety, in regard to the subtle, etherial, and
explosive fluid which it is proposed to introduce.
Turpentine, when ignited, burns slowly, and goes
off cpiefly in smoke. Benzole is almost instantly in
flame, burns rapidly, and emits a gas of a decidedly
explosive character. Experiments have rendered it
probable that it wonld be highly dangerous to light
the gas in any part of a close room where a vessel
of benzole had been allowed to evaporate. The
quickness with which this fluid is incorporated into
the atmosphere, penetrating it with its powerful
gases, is quite remarkable. It is a very dangerous
element to be handled without due caution, and
mav be, in the future, a prolific causo, if care be net
taken, of large conflagrations and distressing less of
life. —Boston Transcript.

GENERAL NEWS.
Opinion of a Tennessee Member of Con
gress.—lton. Horace Maynard, member of Con
gress from Tennessee, has for the last few days been
on a visit to his father and mother and other rela
tives in his native town of Wcstboro. Mass. Last
Monday evening, by invitation of the leading citi
zens, ho addressed a crowded audience in the Town
Hall, which was packed to overflowing, and hun
dreds outside wore unable to. gain admittance.
Many- were present from the adjoining towns. Mr.
Maynard, notwithstanding his Southern residence,
is a true Union man, and his speech abounded iu
patriotic, Union-loving sentiments, and it is for the
expression of such sentiments in his adopted State,
where he has a wife and children, that he was
obliged to leave it.
Mr. Maynard spoke of the causes, from the time
of John C. Calhoun, which had led to this deplora
ble state of affairs, of the energy and determina
tion of the rebels and conspirators in their efforts to
destroy the Government, and of the more vigorous
and earnest measures which must be used to com
pel them to lay down their arms. During bis speech
bo was loudly applauded, and the Audience ten
dered to him a cordial vote of thanks at its close.
Saved by a Fish-hook and Killed by
Quackery.—At Poughkeepsie recently, a colored
man named Calder, while fishing fell overboard,
and not being ablo to swim, would have drowned
but for a fish line, the hook of which catching fast
in his clothes enabled his companions to pull him
out. When first taken out bo showed signs of life,
but was speechless until they commenced rolling
him, when he s* far rovived as to be able to speak.
He begged them *o desist, which they did. Soon
after they conveyed him to a house bear by, where
they gave him salt water and ipecac to vomit him.
and so they continued doctoring him up to Friday
forenoon, when they became alarmed and sent for
a doctor, wbo. informed them he was too far gone
for medical aid. He continued to fail until about
3 o’clock that afternoon, when he expired.
A Fheak of Lightning.—ln Wakefield,
N. H., on the 23th nit., during a storm, the light
ning struck in a field about sixty yards back of the
bouse of Nahum Nason, and bounding towards the
house, struck by the side of a window, shivering
it to atoms; Mr. Nason’s daughter was in the mid
dle of the room, and the fluid passed around her
hoops, which were of steel, breaking a round out of
the chair in which she was' sitting, killing a dog at
her feet, passing out of the window, taking a fur
row across the road to the pump, demolishing it,
returned across the road to a shed, killing a pig,
and did other damage. It then returned to the
cellaT, and broke a lot of crockery ware, and broke
the heads out of a barrel of vinegar; it then passed
out of a drain, and was seen no more, and, strange
to say, no one of the family was injured.
The Effect of Repudiation. —Our South
ern “friends” have found repudiation a very easy,
but not a very effective, method of wreaking their
revenge. A gentleman on Market street yesterday
informed ns that his house had lost, in repudiated
debt, about 8450,000. A prominent family medi
cine maker is a loser to the extent of $500,060, and
other repudiations amount to scarcely less sums.
All of these losers are firmly enlisted for the car
rying on of the war. Money has not absorbed their
patriotism, and losses and poverty cannot swerve
them. But when the contest is over, and the Union
restored, the credit of the South will be “ some
what” unpaired.
Oub advices from Kingston, Jamaica, arc to
the 21st ult., but the news is unimportant. South
ern accounts of the Bull Run battle had been re
ceived, and were apparently credited. The ques
tion of procuring from this country liberated slaves
as emigrants was beginning to be agitated. The
census returns showed, unexpectedly, a large in
crease of population since 1844, notwithstanding
the terrible ravages of cholera and small-pox in the
interim. The diocese of Jamaica is to be divided,
by detaching the Bahamas therefrom.
Mining in Michigan.— A letter from Onto
nagon, Michigan, says: “ This Lake Superior coun
try is a great mining region, where we dig copper
from the earth in its pure state, and excavate the
best iron in the world from onr mountains. After
only twelve years of development, our copper mines
already produce eight thousand tons annually, or
one half as much as England produces after two
hundred and fifty years of working.”
The colonel of a volunteer regiment tells
the following authentic story; While his regiment
was foiming, several preachers applied for the situ
ation of chaplain. He left the choice altogether to
the regiment. One candidate preached without the
desired success, a colleague having outdone him.
To secure bis election, he said', “ Boys, I am not
only a preacher, lam a fighting man; I fought
■ Yankee Sullivan .” He was elected by acclama
tion.
A “ Union ” Convention assembled at
Chambersburg, Fa., on the 2d inst., and nominated
the following ticket: For president judge, James
Nil! (Dem.); associate judge, James 0. Carson
(Rep.); assembly, Major John Reeve (Dem.);
county treasurer, George J. Balsley (Rep.); county
commissioner, John Nitterhouse (Dem.); director
of the poor. Wm. Harris (Rep.) i county auditor,
D. K. Wunderlich, (Dem); coroner, John A. Hys
song (Rep.)
Bitten by a Savage Horse.—At Cincin
nati, recently, a little son of Mr. Joseph Fancoast
was bitten in the cheek by a savage horse attached
to a butcher’s wagon, and the beast did not let go
bis hold until a piece of flesh as large as a dollar
was torn out, actually leaving bare the jaw and
teeth. The animal actually swallowed the human
morsel, while the poor boy fell fainting to the
ground.
Melo-dramatic.—A young, hot-blooded
European recently became enamored of a young
lady of Buffalo, while at Niagara, and forthwith
proposed. She refused, whereupon it is reported
that he took poison, and also tried to throw himself
over the Falls, but in each of these very foolish at
tempts he was promptly met by his friends, so that
he is still in “ the land of the living.”
Emancipation of Russian Serfs.—A Rus
sian gentleman, owner of two thousand serfs, who
has just made arrangements for their emancipation,
in obedience to the orders of the Emperor, writes
that “ the peasants in the interior are lazy, hut well
disposed; if met in a rational way, the transition
from serfdom to freedom can be accomplished with
out excesses, and eventually the productiveness of
the land will be considerably increased.”
An accident of an unusually painful character
occurred at the farm of Ezra L. Sherman, Esq.,
two and a half miles west of Glencoe, on the Chi
cago and Milwaukee Road, on Saturday night last.
Sirs. Sherman heard one of her children, in a room
adjoining her own, cry out, and left her bed to at
tend to its wants. In going across a short hall be
tween the two apartments, she made a false step
and fell down stairs, instantly breaking her neck.
Suicide of a Grandson of John J. Critten
den.—A young man named Coleman, a grandson of
Hon. John J. Crittenden, and a private in one of
the companies of the First Florida Regiment, sta
tioned near Pensacola, committed suicide, on the
25th ult., by cutting his throat, while suffering frqm
mental derangement.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company have
made a contract for the repair of the Western divi

HAIR RESTORATIVE.
The only preparation
THAT HAS
STOOD THE TEST OF YEARS,
AND GROWS MORE AND MORE POPULAR EVERT OAT,
And testimonials, new, and almost without number,
might be given, from Indies and gentlemen in all grades
of society, whose united testimony none could resist,
that Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative will restore tho bald
and gray, and preserve the hair of tho youth to old age,
in all its youthful beauty !
Battle Creek, Mich., Dec. 21, 1858.
Prof. Wood: Thee wilt pleas* accept a line to in
form thee that the hair on my head all fell off over
twenty years ago, caused by a complicatMi chronic dia
eape, attended with nn eruption oh the head. A con
tinual course of suffering through life having reduced
me to a state of dependence. I have not been able to
obtain stuff for eaps, neither have I been able to do
them up, iu consequence of which my head has suffered
extremely from cold. This induced mo to pay Briggs A
Hodges almost the last cent I had on earth for a two
doll ar bottle of thy Hair Restorativo about the first of
August last. I have faithfully followed the directions,
and the bald spot is now covered with hair, thick aud
black, though short; it is also coming in all over ray
bend. Feeling confident that another large bottle would
restore it entirely and permanently, I feel anxious to
persevero iu its use, and being destitute of menus to pnr
clmse any more, I would ask thee if thee wouldst not be
willing to scud me an order on thine agents for a bottle,
and receive to thyself the Scripture declaration—“ The
reward is to those that are kiud to the widow and the
fatherless,”
Thy friend, SUSANNAH KIRBY.
Ligokiek, Noble Co., Indiana, Feb, 5,1859.
Prop. O. J. Wood : Dear Sir: In tho latter part of tit*
year 1852, while attending tho Stato and National Law
School of tho State of New l T ork, my hair, from a cause
unknown to me, commenced fulling off very rapidly, a»
that in the short space of six months, the whole upper
part of niy scalp was almost entirely bereft of its cover
ing, and much of llio remaining portion upon the sido
and back part of my head shortly after became gray; se>
that you will not bo surprised when I it'll yon that, upon
my return to the Stato of ludinnu, my moro casual ac
quaintances were not so much at a loss to discover the
cause of the change in my appearance, as my more inti
mate acquaintances were to recognize mo at all.
I at once made application to tue most skilful physi
cians in the country, but, receiving no assurance from
them that my h»lr conld again bo restored, 1 was forced
to become reconciled to my fate, until, fortunately, in
the latter part of tlie year 1857, your Restorative woe
recommended to me by a druggist, as being tho most
reliable Hair Restorativo in use. I tried one bottle, and
found to my great satisfaction that it was producing tho
det-ircil effect. Since that time I havo used seven dol
lars’ worth of your Restorative, and as a result, have a
rich coat of very soft black hair, which no money can
buy *
As a mark of my gratitudo for your labor and Bklll in
the production of so wonderful an article, I have recom
mended its use to ninny of my friends and acquaint
ances, who, 1 am happ.v to inform yon, are using it with
like effriM. Very respectfully yours, j
A. M. L.YTTA, f
Attorney and Counsellor at Law.
