town, while enwiged as a boatman, was drowned
near Havre de Grace, Md., on Monday last.

SALE OF STOC !3 AT BEAST'S HALL.—A large
amount of valuable stocks will be sold at Brant's
Hall to morrow evening. Those desiring to
Invest their money safely and profitably, should
not fail to attend this sale.
Tua Yomca LADIES of Lewistown are donning
main attire, and perambulating the st►eete of
that ancient borough in fan-tail coats and
fashionable breeches. This is all right, for,
judging from the dough face tone and spirit of
The True Democrat, men are wanted in Lewistown.
HUNAWAT.—Fifth and Market streets were
the scene of some excitement this morning,
caused by a hone, ettachtd to a light wagon,
dashing along at a speed at once dangerous to
the driver in the wagon, and the pedestriana on
the sidewalk. The only damage done was be
breaking of the shafts of the wagon.
SERGEANT Richard C. Dußois, of Susquehan
na county, and late of the 17th Regiment, has
been appointed Adjutant of the 158th regiment.
We I, ,vo no doubt Lieut. Dußois will prove
himself to be a worthy ••nd efficient officer, in
performing the very important duties of his
new position.
AN IMPORTANT ORDINANOR.-By an ordinance
in another column, it will be seen that all phy
sicians having in charge cases of infectious or
contagious diseaw s, must report the same to
the Mayor, in writing. This isrcalled for by a
sense and purpose of public protection, and of
course uut physicians will comply with it
strictly.
Carr. C C. DAVI4 arrived in this city at five
o'clock this morning. The bridge two miles from
Steubenville, Ohio, having been destroyed and
the trains detained in consequence, Cant. Davie
informs us that the body of Lieut. Lutz will
not reach this city until five o'clock this eve
ning. The Committee of Arrangements for
its reception are of course apprised of this fact,
and will act accordingly.
Junco PARSON.—The attack on this irre•
proacbable Judicial officer, by the Patriot and
Union, this morning, excited the disgust and
the contempt of decent men throughout the
city ; while the accusation of impartiality is not
sustained by the facts. In the case of Free
burn, palliating circumstances were given to
the Court by the confession of the party, and
the fact that in the transfer of interests in the
business of Freehurn, a misapprehension of
certain rights under the license to sell liquor
was had, which was so stated by the attorneys,
and on this ground the Judge abridged the
term of Imprisonment in the case of Freeburg.
In the case of Edwards, the circumstances were
all against the party arraigned—his guilt was
clear, and hence his sentence is just.
But let us stop here, as in this community,
Judge Pearson needs no vindication from the
assaults of the Patriot.
Quica Woes.—We learn from the Chambers
burg Repository that the Cumbetland Valley
Railroad Company have been quite expeditions
in rebuilding their structures destroyed a few
weeks since by the rebels. The walls of the
machine, blacksmith and carpenter shops are
severally finished, and the rafters and rough
roofing placed and almost in readiness to receive
the slate covering. The new buildings will be
an improvement upon the old. It is contem
plated to defer the erection of the main building,
or depot, until such time as the shops shllll be
ready to receive their customary workmen.
RICH TINS AMONG THI SCHOLARS OF THE SOUTH
WARD Mon 80nel:tr.—Stash Rampant among the
Girls—Southern Sympathy Triumphant, and Three
Cheers for Jeff Danis.—That which divides the
fathers of the land must be expected to divide
the children— that which is taught at the fire
side will show itself beyond the home thresh
hold, in the action and the words of the mem
bers of such households. Thus educated at
home, the scholars of the South Ward Female
High School have long been at issue. Secesh
was as of en there as it le in the Seminaries of
reheldom, while the Unit Ix attribute maintained
itself as defiantly and as sternly as is done in
the field, where the brothers and fathers of
these young ladies are periling life and limb
for the Union. This morning this feeling cul
minated in a collision. The overbearing con-.
duct of Secesh could no longer be borne by the
Union girls, so that an encounter ensued. But
Secesh was too strong for the Union force, which
suffered severely in torn aprons, dresses,bonnets
and dishevelled hair. In fact the Union girls
were roughly handled and driven from the field,
with streaming eyes and scratched faces. As
soon as the secession girls found them
selves victorious, they gave a cheer for Jeff
Davis which would have done credit to the cut
throats of Stonewall Jackson.
. .
We give these facts, as they were derived
by an eye witness, without any comment. We
leave the public to make their own comments.
The story points a moral to which we have often
directed the attention of the public.

RETIRING BANE Norm now .CIRCULATION.-
The country members of Congress are quite
generally opposed to the plan of retiring btuik
notes from circulation and substituting therefor
government currency, and it will be found
very hard work to get it through Congress.
Like the original proposition to make govera
meut paper a legal tender, only an overwhelm •
-
ing necessity will carry the measure through,
but lf Mr. Chose can show that no other mea
sure will produce so little confuielon and die
tress as this one among the general community
it may pass.
BLACK COI/NM—Eagle Shot. —Henry Crawford,
of Frankstown township, one day recently, shot
a grey eagle measuring six feet six inches from
tip to tip of wings, and three feet two inches
from beak to the end of its tall. It was in the
act of devouring a turkey when shot. Its tal
ons, when expanded, measured seven inches.
Valiainsua Ad.—The Democratic Standard
sap that the palings enclosing the deer park of
Cul. Hays Hamilton, Huntingdon Furnace,
were torn off one night recently, and' all the
deer—some fifty or sixty—escaped to the woods.
Sixteen of them were recovered—the remainder
are still at large, or perhaps have been shot, for
which purpose they were no doubt left out,
Col. H. offers a reward of $5OO for the appre:

HEAVY . ROBBERY IN PITIEBITBO.—WO learn
from our Pittsburg exchanges, that a very
heavy robbery was perpetrated one night last
week at the "Monongahela House." It appears
that Mr. Mcßane, engaged as book-keeper at
the telegraph office, boards at the hotel, and
when retiring to rest the other night, placed a
roll of notes, amounting in the aggregate to
some $l,lOO, and two valuable gold watches,
which he happened to have with him at the
time, under his pillow for safe keeping. He
neglected, however, t 0 10.31 r. hia door, and
tng the alight some'tascal entered the alaiittnent
and succeeded in carrying off both money and
watches. No clue has yet been got of the bur
glars or the property, and it is our opinion that
the man who could dispose of so tench proper
ty so carelessly, almost deserves to lose it. By
this negligence on the part of lodgers, many a
good hotel is ruined in reputation and business.
BORNID TO DIATH.—Mrs. Amelia Davis, liv
ing in. the Second ward, Pittsburg, was burned
to death on Monday night last. Her clothing,
it is supposed, caught fire at the grate, before
undressing herself, and being unable to extin
guish the flames, she rushed to the bed and
threw herself upon it. The fire communicating
to the bedding, death soon ensued from suffo
cation, and that portion of the bed upon which
she lay being burned through, the body fell
to the floor the feet resting on the side rail as
stated.
Anornrat.—On Tuesday last, a little daughter
of Daniel and Elizabeth Mekvoy, living in
Nether Providence, Delaware county, while
engaged in making a fire in a stove, ignited
her clothes and l in a moment was enveloped in
flames. She ran to a creek near by and jumped
in, for the purpose of stopping the flames. The
little sufferer lingered in the most excruciating
agony until Tuesday, when death put an end to
her pains.
Tas funs.—A Deserted Convietionand a Just
,Sentence.—For the last year, the respectable
portion of the people in the vicinity of what
is commonly known as the " Gaieties," have
been outraged and disgraced by the manner in
which this establishment is maintained. The
nuisance became so insufferable, as a perfect
den of inebriation and dissipation, that the
District Attorney, who lives adjoining the es- .
tablishment, reminded officer Fleck of his duty,
and demanded that he return the proprietor of
the "Gaieties" for maintaining a nulsance,as well
as for selling liquor to common drunkards and
to minors. In the discharge of this duty, officer
Fleck acted faithfully, and since the conviction
and sentence of Edwards, those who frequent
the " Gaieties" have organised for the purpose.
of persecuting that officer, and threaten him all
aorta of injury for his faithfulness. But the
good people of the city will sustain officer Fleck.
He assisted in shutting up a nuisance, in rid
ding a respectable portion of the city of a per
fect den of iniquity, and for this he will be
sustained by the public, notwithstanding the
threats and resentments of those who had " a
good time at the Gaieties."
We might as well also inform the pnblic that
an effort is making to procure a pardon for Ed
wards. Of course this will fail, as it is not like
ly that Governor Curtin will let loose a man
convicted after a fair trial, on the grossest
charges of the most heinous offences. It would ,
be well enough, however, for the decent;
portion of the community to counteract any
influence which may possibly be brought so
bear on the Governor for this purpose, and
therefore we throw out the hint that an effort
to procure a pardon is being made. If such a'
petition is presented, it will undoubtedly be .
printed, with . the names of those who sign for
the pardon, when the community will have an
opportnnity of seeing who patronize the;
Gaieties.

PHONOGB.APHY.—We cheerfully call attention.
to Prof. Topham's advertisement concerning
phonography. The advantages:of phonography
may be &lefty stated as follows :
lat. It affords a means of writing thought,
memoranda, sietches of travel, briefs and letters
in one-sixth the time required by the ordinary
long hand.
2d. It provides for the visuliration of the
pronunciation of,foreign languages.
3d. It improves thetpronunciation.
4th. It acquaints the' pupil with the elemen
tary sounds and the structure of the . English
language. , •
Prof. Topham brings with' him the very best
teatimonials as to moral, character, ability and
scholarship, and the citizens of Harrisburg will
find it to their advantage to learn the art which
he teaches.
Besides its great practical utility phonography
is an accomplishment which every young lady
should court. If it could be generally intro
duced in the schools, we thick it would result
beneficially to the scholars, and in cases of
emergency would proVide any person with an
honorable means of support.
Paatn: s. DIIPARTMENT Of .CfommoN SOHOOLS,

Sue :—I have no hesitation in saying that
the system of phonographic short hand, as die
tingo ished from the old stenography or short

Tribute of Bayed to Lieut. Lodz.—At a stated
meeting of the Friendship Fire company held
in their hall on Monday evening, December
let, 1862, the following preamble and resolu-:
tions were unanimously adopted:
Wass, It has pleased Almighty God, iq
His supreme wisdom and over-ruling Providence,
to remove from earth toHeaven, our late fellow
member, H. H. Lutz; . And . whereas, > ln this
dispensation we feel that it is our duty as well
to bow with humiliatioq and submission, as to
pay some fitting and honorable tribute to
the memory of the dead; therefore
Rocived, That the members of this Company
have heard with , deep regret of the death of
Henry 11. Lutz. He was one of the first to re
sign his duties as a fireman to assume the dani
gerons and noble , services of a soldier, in which
capacity he bore himself as a true man and
hero, until death ended his career.
Re:wiped, That we deeply sympathize with
the bereaved father and asters of the gallant
dead. His memory to them was made dear by
the recollection of his obedience and affection,
while to us it is equally dear by the recollection
of his virtues and his frankness, his unselfish
devotion to the public good, and his generous
espousal of every cruise which possessed either
truth or justice as its merit.
Resolved, That as a mark of respect for the
dead, a committee be appointed to receive the
remains of Lieut. Lutz, when they arrive in this
city, and as a mark of further respect, that the
company attend the funeral in a body, and in
vite the Fire Department and Military of the
city to participate in those ceremonies.
Resolved, That the Rouse be draped in mourn-i
lug for thirty days, and that the flag be hung
at half mast until, after the funeral of Lieut.
Lutz.
Resolved, ,That the above be.. printed in the
EVENING Tkitossis and Patriot and Union, and

HALL.—We stepped in last night to witness the
entertainment at Brant's Hall, and we must
say we were very much pleased and highly
amused. The first piece, "Still Waters Bun
Deep," was beautifully done. Mr. Johnston's'
John Mildmay was all that could be desired. In,
fact, we have never seen the character better
enacted. Mr. Stout as Rawksiy, although out
of hie line, was very good. Miss Hermon as .
Mrs. Mildewy, looked pretty and acted well.
Miss. Wayland, in the character of Mrs.. &ern

good representation. Stephens as Paler, was . as'
funny and stupid as Potter should be. We.

To mi FUBUO.—My attention was called to
au article in the Weal columns of the Pairiog
and Union of this morning. It censures the
Judge for passing a heavier sentence on Bub
Edwards than upon Samuel Freeburn, and then
makes a fling at the prosecutor of Bob Edwards
It would hardly be worth while to say a word
in reply, when it is burns in mind that William
Coulter is the getter up of the locals, for every
body knows how ready he is to throw dirt at
other people whether they have been friendsor
foes of his. The insinuation that I ever received
hush money from the proprietor of a gambling
house, is , just es fake as the other insinuation,
that I prosecuted Bob Edwards for the sake of
making money. I sued him because many re
spectable citizens said the establishment was
nuisance, and the strong•Apaech made bf Dis
trict ,Attorney Herr,. satisfied every fair man
that it was a nuisance. But things have come
to a nice pass when fellows like this local editor
set themselves up to teach the Judge and others
what ought or ought not to be done. I can;
only say that if the defender of Bob Edwards,
as well as the individual who tried to defend
'him in court, don't stop assailing me on the
street, and through the pspers,l will show both
that there is law enough left to send them to
keep company with Bob Edwards.

IMPORTANT CERTIFICATE.
Messrs. P. H. D.RAKE.—Ventlemen :—I have
suffered terribly with Dyspepsia for three or
four years, and tried many remedies without
effect. I had to abandon my profession, arid
suffered greatly from everything I ate. I have
now tried the Plantation Bitters—they helped
me—l continued their use, and am now nearly
a well man. I know of several similar rases.
Respectfully yours, Bev. J. S CATHORN."
Intelligent prisons and physicians can judge
of the tfficacy of the Plantation Bittete from
the following partial formula.
CASCARILLA BARK
Was known and used-in Germany for Dyspep
sia, Chronic. Diarrhoea °hobo, Dysentery, and
diseases of the Stoma ch. nd Bowels, as early as
1690. •

Dropsical Affections and Biliary Secretions, or
Obstructions of the Abdominal Viscera.
CALISAYA, OR KING'S, BARK,
Was unknown to civilization until the middle
of the 17th century. Humboldt makes favora
ble mention of the febrifuge qualities of this
article as an Antidote to Fever and Ague, In
termittent and Malarious Fevers, in his exten
sive South American travels. The Countess,
wife of the Viceroy of Peru, having experienced
the beueficial effects of this Bark, sent it to
Europe in 1640. It was sold by the Jesuits for
the enormous sum of its own weight in silver, and
VMS thus called JESUITS' POWDER. ID 1658, Sir
John Talbot employed it with great success in '
Prance, iu the treatment of Fever and Ague,
Dyspepsia, Nervous Affections, Loss of Appetite,
Weakness and - Debility, Palpitation of the
Heart, Diarrhosa, &c., under the name of Eng
fish Powders ; and lu 1679, he sold the secreti
of its origin to Louis XIV, by whom it was di-I
vulged. It is now a standard remedy iu all;

STERLING'S AMBROSIA
FOR THE HAIR
AHANDSOME HEAD OF HAIR is a crown
of glory. With proper care and culture
it will last as a protection to the head as long
as the nails do to the fingers, or the eyelashes
to the eyes. STERLING'S AMBROSIA is the only
article yet discovered that will bring about the
desired resn' is. It is a preparation the result
of science and experiment ; the science point
ing out what was needed, and experiment find
ing the required properties in certain roots, barks,
and herbs. It has consumed a long time in ifs
preparation, has been tested by persons of most
undoubted reliability in this city, and is by them
pronounced perfect, and the only itatisfactrvy
article, and is now offered to the public. The
proprietors, deterwiued to give it the most
thorough tests, practicti and chemical, and now
certain that it will make the hair grow luxuri
antly on Bald Heads, Preventing Grayness and
Baldness, Reinvigorating and Beuutifyiug the
Hair, rendering it soft and glossy.
Da. STERLIAG'S AMBROSIA i 8 a stimulating,
oily extract of roots, barks, and herbs, and,
aside from its neatness, permanency, and gloss,
it is medically adapted to preserve and add to
the beauty of the hair. The only article yet dis
covered that will Cure the Disease of the Scalp, and
cause the Bair to Grow.
CERTIFICATES
This is to certify that about eighteen months
ago, 1 commenced using STERLING'S AMBROSIA.
My hair was short, thin and rapidly falling out.
I had tried many Hair Tonics, Invigorators, &c.,
without receiving any benefit. Soon after using
the Ambrosia, my hair cea,ed falling out, and
commenced growing so rapidly as to astonish
me. Now my hair is thick, soft, and glosy,
and is five feet four inches in length—when let
down, reaching to the floor. This wonderful
result I attribute solely to the use of STBRLING'S
Aimee's., as since I commenced using it I have
applied nothing else to my hair.
