the first of February to the first of October;

that the species are propagated, and to:destxoy

EIPOILTAI%.7T TO REbßUTTS. — Adtiantages of
Entering the Regular Service.—The public are
not generally aware of the fact that the Gov
ernment pays a bounty of four hundred .dol
tars to all persons who enlist for the regular
service. The bounty to volunteers is $4OO for
veterans, and $3OO to new recruits, but for the
regular army the new recruit will receive $4OO
—thus ho will gain $lOO. Those persons who
think of entering the army would do well to
give this matter their attention. There are
many advantages attending the regular sertee
which are not possessed by volunteers, in ad
dition to the difference in bounties offered,- all
of which can be fully explained by recruiting
officers. No doubt many who vOluntedred
would have enlisted in the regular army had
they been informed of the additional bounty
paid new recruits for the latter service.

MIDDLETOWN ITEMS. —The Standing ,
Com
mittee of the East Pennsylvania Eldership 'of
the Church of God, held a meeting last week,
and appointed Rev. J. S. Stamm, of Elizabeth
town, to take charge of the Bethel congrega
tion of Middletown, from the Ist of April
next, at which time Rev. D. A. L. Levert+, their
present pastor, will assume the pastoiship of
the Harrisburg Bethel. --A few members of
company G, Sixth Pennsylvania Reieries,
have returned home on furlough, and the bal
ance of the company are expected this week.
—A. few men are still needed to fill the
quota of the borough. —A boy mimed John
Zimmerman, while skating on Saturclay,last,
broke through the ice; and narrowly esokied
drowning. B. F. Smith, a merabef )of
company C, Seventh Pennsylvania Reserves,
died in a Baltimore hospital a few days ago.
His remains reached home on Tuesday, and
were interred in the Middletown cemetery.
The funeral sermon will be preached in the
Lutheran Church, of that place, on Sunday
morning. On Monday last, Mr. Jacob
Strickler, residing in the vicinity of Middle
town, was seriously injured by being thrown
from a wagon. The accident Was caused by
his horse running off. The Journal has a
lengthy account' of a rat-murder, cOmniitted
by Mr. 3. L. Nissley, a. few nights ago., It was
horrible.
A SUBSTITUTE BROKER 001EpTiTT.7 . 1") , :TO ' Br
im:sp.—An interesting Casa was' tried rt' few
days since, in our court, connected with the
first draft in this county, and the participator
was compelled to refund the ill gotten funds..
It appears that Daniel E. Wilt represented to
Daniel Shoop, a drafted man, that he tvOuld
obtain a substitute for him, and on this rep
resentation Shoop paid him $325; but gg atter
operating for a week or ten. days, Wi
Shoop that he Could not obtain' a - sUbsi z itute,
but that he would have him exempted by the
surgeons at Camp Curtin—and it seems that
by some means or other two Surgeons, named
Hays and Pollock, gave Shoop sornething like
an exemption paper, and Shoop was -permit
ted to escape service. Pollock was afterwards
arrested on the charge of dishoneSt-pik4eS
in that capacity, but was permitted to escape
punishment. Shoe') brought suit.against.Wilt
for the recovery of the amount ($325) - paid -
to him, alleging that be had not furnished l the
substitute as agreed upon, and admitting that
he was illegally exempted by the surgeons.
The court held that Wilt had not fulfdled• his
part of the contract, and the jury returned a
verdict in favor of the plaintiff for the suit_of
$325 claimed. A suit of a similar nature
against Wilt is still 'on the docket, but :his
, •
attorney alleging that, the one tried would de
cide the other, it was postponed, and we pre
sume it will lie settled.
'We hope that all pers9ns who were thus
Posed upon will institute similar suits, and
compel every substitute broker to disgorge.
Men who will operate upon the ignoraniontl
timid in this manlier should certainly be oci'm
pelled to refund every cent -receivek tcOts
original owner, and receive a proper purrish
ment. The Government has in this'manner
been defrauded of enough soldiers to 'have
ended the war, and we hope the stron g 'irn
of the law will reach theguilty.

specimen of thejnice, and find it to resemble
genuine Port wine in quality and flavor. It
is a very superior wine. No doubt there will
be a great demand for . the Oporto vines.

affecting. The entire strength of the Com
pany appears in the Ticket-of-Leave Man, all
having very good parts but the principal
features are Bob Brier, Hawkshaw, Dalton,
Mose and. Mary Edwards. The usual min
strel performance is .given, and, the greatest
amount of acts are done up in the shortest
time, `as no 'interinission is T - given throUghout
the -entire performance. We ~see Mr. E. W.
Haas, the Pianist, has been added to the or,

best music ever heard here.
A SENSATION—Itu-sionsp MURDER, &C.—
Quite a sensation was produced in our city
yesterday, by a rumor that a soldier who had
received his bounty money, had been murdered,
and his body thrown into the reservoir, from
which our citizens receive their supply of
water. The facts of the case are about as-fol
lows: On Wednesday night abont twelve
o'clock, as two of the workmen employed in
the rolling mill were going to work, and when
in the vicinity of the reservoir, they saw two
or more men proceed to the basin and throw
over the fence, into the water, what they pup
-posed to be-the bocly.of. a Man or woman. Last
night the workmen, who are named Demoss
and Smith, appeared before Alderman Kline,
when Demoss made a statement Ofi oath to
the above effect, and naming the precise point
at ticfiielcthe object was" thrown: over 'the
fence. This afternoon the -water is be'ing
drawn - from the reservoir, with a view of insti
tuting a search to discover the body, if any is
there. We will give further particulars here
after, if any light is thrown on the subject.

Gov. CURTLN AT THE LANCASTER FAIR.—The
Lancaster Express thus notices the presence of
Gov. Curtin at the fair of the Patriotic Daugh
ters, on Wednesday night: , '
A few minutes after Mr. Murcloc,k had com
menced his lecture, Gov. Curtin, who had ar
rived in the evening train, entered' the room.
His appearance was the signal for an outburst
of enthusiasm, which shows the hold he has
upon the popular heart. At the conclusion of
the lecture, the audience called earnestly for a
speech from hiin, but as another immense, au
dience was:impatiently awaiting his arrival at
Fulton Hall, this general desire Could not be
complied with.
Union Cornet Band, whose fine music
formed'a pleasant feattu•e al the evening's en
tertainment, escorted the Governor to Fulton
Hall, where one of the most brilliant scenes we
-ever witnessed was presented. The large hall
was so densely packed, that it was with dffi
culty that the Governor could make his way
'to the platform. His reception was a grand
ovation the whole audience joining in enthu
siastic cheers, waving of handkerchiefs, etc , .
A large number . failed to get in the hill, being
unable to secure tickets owing to the crowd• at
the ticket window. The scene throughout was
one worthy the occasion and the ovation justly
due one who, by his ; earnest ;labors for their
welfare; well deserves the sobriquet of "the
Soldiers' Friend,"
Once upon the platform, the Governor was
introduced in a few felicitous remarks by the
venerable• Dr. Muhleuberg. Gov.. Curtin, as
he always is on such occasions, was exceed
ingly happy in his response, thanking; the la
dies, as Governor of the State, for their noble
labors in this good cause, and expressing his
astonishment that in an issue in which the
great problem of human freedom and self
government is being solved, , that all should
not be of one mind, and standing. shoulder' to
shoulder in this noble work. He paid a just
and eloquent tribute to the women of Penn
sylvania—God bless them I with, whom there
had been no faltering in their devotion to
their country . and its brave defenders—no
bounds to their liberality—no weariness in
labors of love—the' women, God bless them
again! had stood true by the old flag from the
sound of the first gun of treason. And, said
he, the man who is not for his country in this
hour of her peril, who has stood aloof from
such noble enterprises as this in behalf of our
soldiers, should come and look at this specta
cle and here learn of his duty.
The. Governor's remarks were received with
hearty.applause, andloud calls were made for
Mr. Dickey, who replied that the ladies did
not get up this fair to hear speeches from him,
but to sell their articles, and he recommended
all to buy, as there would be no 'more
speeches. - -
During the, Governoes stay in the hall he
was compelled to go through a severe ordeal
of hand-shaking, and was relieved of the pres
sure only when it was announced that he would
remain in Lancaster next day, and - visit all
the departments of the Fair.
After leaving the hall, the Governor pro
ceeded to the residence of Judge Champneys,
where he and a number of his friends were
pleasantly entertained. The Governor was
also serenaded by the Union Cornet Band.
Wroar nes Wan is -Ovita.4-Arches of spruce
and flowers met the view at all corners of the
streets. The military in gayest colors matched
to the tune of Yankee Doodle, and "See, the
Conquerer Comes." Sable humanity seemed
a shade lighter in color from very joy and hap
pineis, and general rejoicing with its million
voices echoed from the South, East, West
and North, and praised God for the success
ful progress of liberty and civilization.:. The
minds of tyrants were seriously exercised in
English and French localities. All .these
things are supposed to have taken place
when the war is over. At present the minds

Tab. PATENT DOUBLE TUBE PIPE.
MIMS very popular Pipe has now been in
troduced into this community. Its peculiar merit
consists in the use of two tubes, one for the smoke alone, and
the other for the passage of the saliva and nicotine to the cup
at thebostow, whence it as discharged. The smoke being
thus kept clear of contact with saliva is always delicious
and pure in its odor, and the collected matter which ren
ders all other Pipes offensive being entirely removed, the
Pipe will always continue sweet and agreeable. In the
cities of Baltimore and Washington where thousands have
tested its merits, amongst the Editorial notices are the
following:
The Baltimore American sayr—This Pipe has many of
the qualities of the costly Turkish "chibouk," giving to
the smoker thelmre exhalation of the tobacco, free from
its noxious nicotine.
The Daily Gazette ,says :—lta economy and the greater
usury it imparts while smoking, recommend it favorably
o all lovers of the weed.
The Daily Clippei sarja:—lt posses= merits never be
fore obtained in Pipes. There is no doubt but that in a
short time it will be the only Pipe used.
For sale by the dealers generally In this city, and whole
sale at liberal rates, by "The Tobacco Pipe Company," at
their manufactory, No. 1 Granby street, opposite Pratt
Street Bridge, Baltimore,
P. S—'rfie attention of Sutlers and others is called
to this Pipe, now so popular throughout the army.
