the Vicna. Last week we noticed the sad occur
rence of the shooting of Michael Meixell, early on
Thursday morning of last week, by Samuel Irwin,
boy about seventeen years old, indicting a serious
wound tn the breast of Meixell, who was discovered
in the act of taking some apples from the premises
of the boy's mother. We regret to say that Mr.
Meixell died in the aftornoon of the same day. The
decerned, it is said, bore the character of a peaceable
end orderly citizen. This sad affair has involved In
affliction both families. After the deuth of Mcixoll
young Irwin was committed to jail, but on Monday
last was released on a writ of habeas corpus, and
entered into bonds in the sum of f 10,000 for bis ap
pearance at the November session of Court.
Tkk Middle CnEEK IUn.noAn Compasv.
On Tuesday last a meeting was held by the Com
missioners, named in the Act incorporating a Com
pany to construct a railroad from Lewistown to
Selinsgrove, and thence to this place or Northumber
land. The Company was organised by the election
of a President and twelve Directors, as follows :
President Abner Thompson ; Directors Jos. Alex
ander, E. L. Benedict, Aaron K. Gift, John Hayes,
jr., John A. McKeo, Thomas B. Reese, John D.
Bomig, Moses Specht, Qcorgo Schnure, John B.
mith, William II. Weber, and Henry Zerbe.
The distance from LewUtewn to Selinsgroro is
bout 45 miles. The route will be through a fine
agricultural and mineral district, abounding in iron
ore, limestone, lumber, Ac. The ground is highly
favorable. At the meeting we observed a number
of the most prominent citizens of Lewistown, Selins
grovn, 4c., who informed us that the prospects of an
early completion of the road is encouraging.
We are pleased to learn that F. C. Arms, Esq., of
this place, has been appointed Chief Engineer of the
road, and will commence a preliminary survey in a
few days.
ty I Fisii-way Cumfleted. We are grati.
fed to learn, from the Wrightsville Slur, that there
is a fair prospect of a free passage of shad and other
fun us the Susquehanna, during the next season.
The Star says :
"The (chute or Mi-way In the dam, below this
place, has been comploteil by Iho Susquehnnna canal
company, and is now ready for the purpose for which
it was designed. We suppose the shnd will give it a
trial on their next annual migratory fresh water tour
up our stream ihe ensuing spring. If there wore any
young shad to decern! this lull as they were wont to
lo before dmus were built in the Susquehanna, they
rould notify their old folks when thoy arrive at home
in shad-doin, that tho track is clear.''
J5' Milton ArrAim. We take the following
items from the Miltonian, of last week : The Mil
ton Car Factory employs eighty workmen. Last
week vote was taken on the candidates for Gov
ernor. The vote stood as follows :
Oeary, 49
Clyiner, 13
Eighteen were either absent or not entitled to
vote at the coining election. The above is rather
decided majority for the General.
The fates, or perhaps the weather more particu
larly, has been against the arrangements made for
our Couuty Fair. The wsather was so unfavorable
that the Committee of Arrnngemeuts were compelled
to postpone the matter. The Fair will now be bcld
on the 17th, 18th and 19th of October. This una
voidable postponement on tho part of the Committee
will, we trust, cot detract from the interest of the
Fair. Let all still take the same interest.
John S. Peterman, the Postmaster at this place,
not willing to sacrifice bis principles for the sake of
retaining bis position, ha; been removed, and Cnrle
ton, son of Capt. I. B. Davis, appointed in bis place.
We are pleased to be able to chronicle the fuol that
not Judas could be found in the Republican party
to accept the office by betraying his principles in
endorsing Johnson and supporting Clymer for Gov
ernor. We experience feeling of satisfaction that,
since change has been made, the office should go
over into the care of the political party it has. This
is better than to have it in the bands of renegade
Republican. The Union party will gain votes by
the change.
t76BAUOKi!i Items. Our Shamokiu coteinpo
rary says that the Street Commissioner of that place
lias ooumenoed to cut out the new channel for the
creek. It ii to bo 110 feet in width, and is to run in
the same direction as the small channel that was cut
some time ago. The work will be continued as lorg
as money can be raised from the sale of the lots that
have been donated for that purpose. It is to be
hoped that this new cut can be completed, so that
improvements can be extended over the old channel.
The ladies of the Presbyterian congregation are
preparing for fuir and festival during the coming

that he was crushed beneath it. Men at once set

over the bridge to the meeting.
The stand erected in Market Square was a model
structure, oorered over head, and handsomely deco
rated with evergreens and wreaths of flowers, e.
The decoration of the stand was the work of the
ladies of Sunbury, whose good taste and judgment in
these matters cannot he excelled by those of any
town or city in Pennsylvania.

Gen. Joseph W. Fisher, of Lancaster county, was
then introduced. The General commenced by say
ing uini ne leu a more man ordinary Interest in
speaking to the people of his native county. Besides
he recognized among them soldiers who belonged to
two companies, (from Northumberland and Milton,)
which formed part of his regiment. The General's
speech was addressed principally to the "Boys in
Blue," and was well reeeived.
Prof. Horry W. Adams, formerly of New York,
but now a resident ot Chilisquaque township, in this
county, next addressed the meeting. II is speech was
an able one, and was well received by the audience.
During the speech of Mr. Adams, second stand was
erected, from which Judge Uelfcustein was iutro-
uucea uy j. is. i-acaer, tfq. a snort ttme alter a
third stand was organized, from which A. R. Fiske,
Esq., the Uuiou candidate for Assembly, made an
able and telling speech. He was followed at the same
stand by the Hon. George F. Miller, the Union can
didate for Congress, in a spirited speech.
After Mr. Adams bad concluded bis speech from
the main stand, Hon. Wm. Ii. Armstrong, of Wil
linmsport, made an able argument in favor of the
Congressional policy.

gations left for home. About this time the mail train
arrived, ucd with it came Hon. Edward McPheison,
of Gettysburg, Dr. Doane, of the State of New York,
aud Protestor Leo Milltr, of Rochester, N. Y.
Dr. Doane immediately mounted the platform,
and in a short time had a I urge audience. He com
menced by congratulating us on the large and spiri
ted meeting assembled, and remarked that, notwith
standing moat of the delegations bad left, and the
meeiing wua dispersed, he bad assembled before him,
in less than three minutes, over thousand persons.
This, he said, was the spirit all over the Slate, and
he confidently believed Gen. Ueary would be elected
by a majority of fifty thousand.
The meeting theu adjourned to 71 o'clock in the
evening.
In the evening grand Torchlight Parade was
gotten up, under the auspioesof the Union League
and Boys in Blue. At least live hundred persons
were in the procession, and as it moved through our
principal streets with the banners, flags, transparent
oies, bands and drum corps, the appearance was
grand aud imposing. After marching through
ral of the streets, the boys, with their torches lit,
assembled in front of the Court House, where a large
crowd had already collected.
Hon. Edward Mcl'berson was then introduced, and
was listened to with marked attention for more than
an heur. He showed most conclusively that every
good eitjsen and patriot, who loved his country, was
bound to autain the Congreastoaal polioy. in oppo
sition to the one-man policy of the President.
Professor Leo Miller was then introduced, who
spoke until nearly It o'elock in a very able and
effective manner. His speech was listened to with
marked attention by the largest assemblage we ever
saw at a night mooting, outside the oi ties.

delved no tndustriotaal sunonist the messes of
eurioua Inoidenls wbioh bare marked the late war,
and Has grouped and alasiBed them tinaer kpprs
prlate heads, and la very ttraotlve form.
There la certain portion of the war that will
never go into the regular histories, nor be embodied
in romance or poetry, which is very real part of it,
and it will, If preserved, convey to the aucoeeding
generations better idea of the spirit of the eonOiot
than many dry reports or careful norratives of
events, and this part may be called the gossip, the
fun, the pathos of the war. These illustrate the
character of the leaders, the humor of the soldiers,
the devotion of women, the bravery of men, the
pluck of our heroes, the romance and hardehif s of
Ihe service. From the beginning of the war the au
thor ha been engaged in collecting all the anecdotes
eonneoted with or illustrative to it.
Tho volume is profusely Illustrated with over 300
engravings by the first artists, which are roy
beautiful ; worthy of examination as specimens ol
the art. Many of them are set into the body of the
text, after the popular style of Lossing's Piotoriul
Field Book of the Revolution. The book's contents
irclude reminiscences of narop, picket, spy, scout,
bivouac, siege and battle-field adventures; thrilling
fents of braver, wit, drollery, comical and ludi
crous aaveniures, etc, etc.
Amusement as well as instruction may be round
in every page, as graphio detail, brilliant wit, and
authentic history, are skillfully intorwover in Ibis
work of literary art.
The book is compiled by Fraier Kirkland, the
well known author of the "Cyclopedia of Commer
cial and Business Anecdotes," who has brought large
experience end great talent to the work. It is the
product of vast labor, in travel, correspondence and
personal observation, and is in everyway complete.
Geo. W. Snyder, of Sunbury, is the authorized
agent for this work, in tblsoounty. He will call on
the citizens of this place, with a sample of tbe book

Lira Inspraxci. " I ean make a better invest

the objection made to life insurance. But there is
no way in wbioh a small sua of money ean be so
profitably and socurely invested, fur such a purpose,
as in a polioy on your life ; because tbe payment of
a tingle prtmium secure!, and at once, a very much
larger sum than the investment of tbe same amount
could possibly do in the ordinary operations of trade,
Besides, securing a sum in this way does not, in the
least, interfere with your endeavors to aecumulate
in smv other way you may desire.

tasted none to excel the Sambucl vintage of America.
In our opinion, this wine cannot fail of success. It
