fortunate habit ofgetting so themselves.
'foam FESTIVAL.—The Feast of Lights, or
the days of dedication, now being celebrated by

Laws Dsus.—A deer weighing four hundred
and two pounds, was recently shot near Big
pond Furnace, on the South Mountain, in
Cumberland county. The animal was supposed
to be about seventeen years old, and no doubt
its meat equalled in toughness some of the
beef sold in our market.
TO PREVENT COLD FNET.-If you have cold
feet, immerse them morning and evening in
cold water, and rub with a rough towel. In
one month you will he entirely relieved. All
the red pepper and mustard applications are

but leave you colder to-morrow.

ANOTHER WILD CAT SHOT.-A few days ago a
large wild cat was shot in the upper end of
Cumberland county, by a party of hunters. It
measured over three feet in length. These
" varmints" seem to be unusuilly plenty the
present season. Three or four have been shot
in this region lately.

KEN AND ANIMALS.—How superior are men in
intellect and moral (Dana: s to the animal
creation ! For example, let a bird discover a
store of seeds or fruit, and the foolish thing
goes and tells of his good fortune, and all the
birds in the neighborhood flock to enjoy it.
Even a little ant will bring his whole tribe to
feast upon a newly-discovered dainty. But let
a man discover a mine of gold, or any kind of
valuable treasure, and he will keep it to him
self as long as possible, and take the greatest
care to conceal it from others.

DANDY.-A specimen of the human family
that passes for a man among women, and for
a woman among men. His upper lip is tied on
with a moustache, while his whole accupation
consists in toting a little whale-bone cane up
and down Market street. Here is an old epi
gram on the dandy that is very good, consider,
leg the poverty of the subject :
Your boo's my friend, unlike to mine,
With polished lustre brightly shine ;
Had you bestowed such studious pains
To gloss the dui ness of your brains,
It would not then by ail be said,
How much his Met eclipse his head "
ASKING ALMS.—The presence of the cold
season has already increased the number of
beggars in our city. Now is the time when
the heart melts as it contemplates the wretch
edness and the suffering of the poor—and now,
too, brazen-faced imposition cheats alike the
giver and the needy. But let deception con
tinue rather than any human being in the city
should absolutely suffer from want. If charity
exhausts her means, or refuses them, who can
picture the unseen and unknown wants that in
temperance and idleness will inflict upon the in
nocent mother and helpless children ? The
winter is indeed a time to set people think
ing as well as acting for the poor ; and al
though year after year it goes on, and is still
the same, yet none who are blessed with an
abundance of the good gifts of Heaven should
refrain from giving, because they despair of any
change in the fortunes of this class of society
for the better. The poor are always with us,
and it is our duty to provide for them.
"SHINNY." —There are few Harrisburgers, we
imagine, who understand what is meant by
"shinny." We do, having in our boyhood
days—and ever since the days when our title to
Mr. has been indisputable—played more than
one game of "shinny." We do not allude to
the shinny necessary to meet the I. 0. U's.
that the banks always send a polite notice of,
but the game of "shinny" as played in olden
time, and which is one of the most healthful
and exciting games we ever engaged in. It is
played by any number of persons, from two to
one hundred. Each player being provided
with a stout stick, some three or four feet long,
the lower end heaviest and curved in shape
somewhat like an umbrella handle, forming
about one third of a circle. The players are
placed on each side of a line, and a base, or as
it is mostly called a "bounce," is selected for
each party, about a hundred yards apart.—
These preliminaries Betted, the parties toss for
the ball, and the winning side place it on their
bounce. One df their best players then starts
it by striking it with his "shinny stick." And
now commences the play in earnest, each play
er striving with all his might to keep the ball
from reaching the "bound" of his own party,
and if possible to send it to that of the oppo
site party. Sometimes a ball is kept in motion
ten or fifteen minutes before it reaches either
of the bounces, but when it is sent home to
either side the game is ended, and a victorious
shout is usually sent up by the successful side.
During the play each party must keep on his
own side of the ground, or else take the con
sequences of being hit on the shins by some
one of the other party, which, according to
the rules of the game, is allowable. At such
time the party dealing out the punishment
calls out, "shinny on your own side." We
presume that the danger to shins has given the
name of "shinny" to the game. We notice by
our exchange papers that this old-time game
has been revived in various places, and we can
say for it that the use of "shinny sticks" will
be found a far more effective medicine for dys
peptics than all the nostrums and "dumb bells"
that were ever gotten up. Let us have a
shinny club in Harrisburg. Who of our young
men will lead off in the movement? The
sticks can be procured in Philadelphia, or man
ufactured at home, and will cost but a trifle.

come off on Saturday evening of next week.
The members of the Band are now practising
a number of new and popular airs for the oc-

A Hoo-isu nuctr..—The other night some
person or persons stole a fresh-slaughtered hog,
the property of Mr. Samuel H. Ettla, from a
butcher shop somewhere in the upper section of
the city. The animal weight d over two hundred
pounds. The stealing of it was a very hog ish
trick, and we hope the thieves will be detected
and properly punished.

A PREACHER TlME—Last evening informs

will have an opportunity of making Judge
Peason's acquaintance at the next term of Gault.
Should the charge against him be sustained, he
will be obliged to suspend preaching for some
months.
THE OLD CELLAR DOOR.—
How sweet to remember the pleatires gone by,
The time of our boyhood and glee ;
West bosom but swells with a half choking sigh,
When in manhood our old haunts we see?
But sweetest and dearest of all to the heart,
When "night throws her shadows before,"
Are the days which we spent with juvenile art,
Sliding down on the Old Cellar Door.
How brightly it shone in the gay Summer sun,
How sweetly it smi'es at our side ;
And the nails seem to laugh and encourage the fun,
As over their smooth beads we glide.
They, too, oft deceived us and stayed our career ;
Or our trowsers maliciously tore ;
Turned our joys to distress and our smile, to a tear
Those nails in that Old Cellar Door.
WENT TO PRISON.—At a late hour last night
Alfred Packer, son and Private Secretary of the
Governor, was found at a disreputable institu•
tion somewhere in the city, excessively inebri
ated and indulging in violent spirit-ual manifes
tations. He was arrested by officer Lewis, and
talc, n before Alderman Maglaughlin, who com
mitted him to.prison for twenty-four hours.—
This morning, however, the - Keeper or some of
the Directors of that institution, restored him
to liberty. This young man narrowly escaped
going before Judge Pearson at the late term of
Court, and he does not seem to have profited
by the lesson then learned. Rowdyism in our
city is not confined entirely to the lower cir
cles of society—we have rowdies in broadcloth
as well as rowdies in rags—and the former
class is more numerous than people dream of.
MAKE THE FIRESIDE PLEASANT.- Readefa of
the TELEGRAPIE, who are blessed with "house
hold idols;" do you want to make home de
lightful to them? Then don't come creeping
from your business, with all the day's cares
and trials hanging, like forty mill-stones,
about your necks! Leave them in their proper
place ! Come smiling to your fireside, as if
you expected to enjoy yourself, and wanted the
rest of "the folks" to do the same thing. If a
pleasant circumstance has come under your
observation, keep it for discussion at your fire
side ; if a smile-waking thought has occurred
to you, divide it with the home circle. Don't
shrug up your shoulders - and draw down your
mouth if a few young people "happen in" to
see your juveniles ! Don't complain about
the noise they make ! You were young your
self once, and if you go to work to help them
have a "good time," our word for it the noise
will soon cease to annoy you. The world has
a very rigidizing influence on its disciples, and
if you don't take the evenings to unbend in,
you will become an obsolete. Forget, once in
a while, that life is not all sunshine—forget
your cares, and they will diminish in propor
tion. There never was a day so dark but that
a happy home evening could gild its shadows I
Make your fireside something for all to look
forward to, and think about—make it a resting
place—and you may depend upon it, . life will
be a pleasanter affair to you!
A UNION MENTING ifa this city is talked of.—
As the people here are all Unionists, no neces
sity exists for such a demonstration. If there
be dough -faced politicians in our midst who
desire to crawl un their bellies and eat dirt, let
them hold a special meeting for that purpose.
The mass of our citizens have ever been, are
now, loyal to the Union and the Constitution,
and will indignantly frown upon every trea
sonable attempt to destroy the one or violate
the other. They have an abiding,faith in the
perpetuity of the Union, and are -not affected
by the "scare" gotten up by Southern fire-eat
ers and their Northern dough-faced allies, to
bully the Northern people into an abandonment
of principle, and force from them unjust and
humiliating concessions.
The Union's safel Ye neel not fear
That words from babbling tongues distilled
Will check her in her proud career,
Till her grand mission is fulfilled.
Most of the so-called Union demonstrations
in the North are Locofoco meetings in dis
guise ; and if our Republican friends are wise
they will keep their feet out of the trap set to
ensnare them. The whole movement is a cun
ningly devised trick to galvanize the defunct
carcass of Locofocoisru, and re-organize that
corrupt party for the campaign of 1864, with
a view to the recovery of the spoils in which
they rioted for so many years. The object of
these meetings is not so much to " save . the
Union," as to destroy the Republican party.—
The design of these " Union savers" is as pal
pably evident to every intelligent man who
notes the signs of the times, as if written upon
the heavens with a pencil of sunbeams :
"The painted hypocrites are known
Through the ditguise they wear."
"A FAmsn's"coruinunication was not "con
e )cted where it was published," but written by
an old and highly esteemed citizen, who is a
competent judge of literary obscenity, and
possesses the ability to wield the pen in self
defence, if so inclined.,
WINTER SPORTti..7.--SeVitai ponds in the vi
cinity of this city are now frozen over, affording
the juvei, i les plop y of amusement and exercise
in the way of skating. This forenoon we saw
a jolly crowd of them gliding swiftly and grace
fully over the glassy surface of one of these
ponds, and they seemed to enjoy the sport im
mensely. All boys, and girls too, should be
encouraged to indulge in this exhilarating and
healthful exercise.

Doss SMOKING CAUSE CANOSES?-It has been
industriously circulated lately that tbeereat in
crease of cancers, especially upon the lips, is
caused by the habit of smoking tobacco. But
scientific medical men, who have investigated
the matter, dispute this theory, and although
they consider smoking pernicious, they are of
the opinion that it does not produce cancerous
affections of any kind.
-...__-.
PAY Our Yourt. CHANGE.—SiIver change is be
coming somewhat scarce in this community, and
business operations are frequently embarrassed
for the want of it. "Scary" people are evi
dently sinking it in their long stockings and
strong boxes, and offering five dollar bills in
payment of every little quarter or half dollar
purchase they make. There is an abundance
of specie in the country, if people would only
fairy and freely pay it out in their business
transactions with each other, and this they will
eventually be obliged to do, or inaugurate a
shin-plaster era, should the suspension conL
tinue for any length of time.
i=r=ci
FOREIGN Music.—A writer, for one of our
exchange papers, in a very sensible article
deprecating the popular appreciation for opera
music, says the following, which will be very
generally recognized as a valuable home truth :
"Alaking allowance for peculiar tempera
ments, and for the power of fashion, and for
the force of an acquired taste, we unhesitatingly
declare our belief that a great part of the ap
parent popularity of foreign music abides in
affectation. Italian music is not the music of
the American heart, and has no ministry to the
American heart. We hear it, and if it be well
sung, we admire it—possibly wonder at it—but
no more, or rarely more ; yet we have not
beard a lady voluntarily sing a good old En
glish or a Scotch ballad, or an American song,
for a year. Ask for a song, and they pitch in
to something that bears no more relation to the
Anglo Saxon race than "Old Dan Tucker" does
to the Hebrew.
A Hosts PICTURE.—How many readers of the
TELEGRAPH have realized the truth of the old
familiar song, "let home be e'er so homely,
there's no place like home." In the hope of
turning some of our old bachelor friends from
the error of their ways, we publish the follow
ing pretty picture of a married man going home
to his wife and family. It is enough to entice
any one into the matrimonial noose. All that
is necessary is to be careful who holds it. Look
upon the pleasant picture :
"Passing a neat little martin box of a house,
last evening, we happened to see a man waiting
at the door for admittance. At the instant, a
green blind above just opened a little way, and
by the gas light we caught a glimpse of a pair
of brilliant eyes, and a flutter of something
white, and a bird-toned voice softly
"Who's there ?" "It's me,"
was the brief re•
spouse. The eyes and the flutter disappeared
from the window, like stars in a cloud, and we
almost fancied, as we passed on, we could hear
the pattering of two little feet upon the stairs,
winged with welcome. It was a trifle ; it all
happened in an instant, but it haunted us for
an hour. "It's me !". Amid the jar of the city
those words fell upon the quick ear aloft, and
met a glad response. "It's me !" And who
was "me ?" The pride of a heart's life, no
doubt ; the tree a vine was clinging to ; the
"Defender of the Faithful," in the best sense
of the word. "It's me !" Many are there who
would give half their hearts, and more than
half the hope in them, for one such recognition
in this "wide, wide world." On 'Change, in
the Directory, at the Pcst Office,he was known
as A. B. C , Esq.; but on that threshold, and
within those walls, "it's me," and nothing
more ; and what more is there one would love
to be? Few of all the hearts that beat so
wildly, warmly, sadly, slowly, can recognize a
a true soul amid the din and darkness of the
world, in that simple but eloquent "it's me."
As if he had said,
Now I am nothing to all the world,
For I am all ihe world to thee.
The Oil Regions of Pennsylvania
The oil regions of Pennsylvania seem to be
rather more extensive than was at first supps
ed. Wells have been sunk in Venango, War
ren, Mercer, and many other western counties,
and there are no less than four famous points
known as Mecca, Oil Creek, Titusville, and Ti
deout. Of the three latter a great deal has
been published, but Mecca, which is less known
appears to be hardly less important. From a
statement in the Pittsturg Evening Chronicle
we learn that since the first well was sunk
there, in February last, between six and seven
hundred wells have been put down at an ag
gregate cost of $48,750, and two weeks ago
there were seventy-five engines in operation
pumping oil. Each well involves an outlay of
from $lOOO to $l2OO for engine, pump and
vats. They produce from three to twelve bar
rels of oil a day each, except those of Hoxie &
Wilson, and Skeele & Co.. which yield from
fifty to one hundred barrels a day, the average
being for these two about seventy-five barrels
a day. The oil sells at twenty-five cents a gal
lon. During the past summer about one hun
dred and fifty buildings have been erected
there, including hotels, boarding houses, dwel
lings and stores. Land which in January last
could have been bought at from twenty-fivet o
thirty dollars an acre, is now selling at three
hundred per acre. In fact the oil discoveries
have been already of immense value to West
ern Pennsylvania, and are peopleing the forests
and rearing up towns and villages.
HAS SEEN BRIGHTER DAYS.—Poor Tom Mar
shall ! We heard of Tom, a few weeks ago, he
was " down East," having turned over a new
leaf, and was delivering temperance lectures.
He had announced his determination to cheat
the lunatic asylum out of at least one victim.
In a late number of the Cincinnati Enquirer
we find the name of poor Tom in the police
records of that city, alluded to as a "red-faced,
blotch-nosed, dilapidated individual, accused
of drunkenness." When asked what he had
to say for himself, he made an attempt to pal
liate the offence, attributing it to an attack of
rheumatism, and making an eloquent appeal to
the Court for clemency. Poor Tom, a descendant
of one of the most talented families in Ken
tucky, the time was when, as a Senator from
that State, the walls of legislative halls rung
with his eloquence ; but that time is passed,
and we find him now a poor degraded vaga
bond. How hath the mighty fallen ?

PROF. WOOD'S HAIR PERTORATIVE.—This Re

out, and restoring gray hair to its original color, is be

way before it. Three fourths of the mixtures for re

good. They burn it up—destroy the life of its roots—
make the hair fall off, and produce premature baldness.
But Prof. Wood's Restorative may be relied upon as con

the hair, while-Its sucfiess in accomplishing what it pre

says "I will stake my reputt.tion as IL man, coy stand

of New York, that all the 13PANDY and Wisys which I

No. 832 Market t ,Phi adriplrfa <;:
Eole Agent for Philadelphia
Read the following from the Ni w York Courier :
ENOILIS01:3 REMIXESS POE ONE NEW YORK MERCHANT.—
Vire are happy to inform our fel ow-citizens that there la
one place In our city where the physician, apothecary,
and country merchant, can go and purchase pure Wines
and Liquors, as pure as imported, and of the best quality;
We do not intend to give an elaborate description of thls
merchant's extensive business, although it will well re
pay any stranger or citizen to visit Udolpho Wolfeik ex
tensive Warehouse, NM. 10. 10 and 2l Beaver street,
and Nos. 17, 19 and 21, Mari etileld street His stock of
Schnapps on hand ready for shipment could not have
been less than thirty thousand cases; the Brandy, some
ten thousand cases—Vintages of 1816 to 1856 ; and ten
thousand cases of Madeira, Sherry and Port Wine,
Scotch and Irish Whisky, Jamaica and St. Croix RAM,
some very old and equal to any iu this country. He also
had three large cellars, fated with Brandy, Wine, iso., iu
casks, under Customhouse key, ready for bottling.
Wolfe's sales of Schnapps last year amounted to one
bestir.. d and eighty thousand dozen, and we hope iu
than two years he may be equally ~successful with Ms
Brrndies and Wines.
- • • - .
His business merits the patronage of every lover of hlit
species. Private families who Nish pure Winos and
Liquors for medical use should send - their orders direct
to Mr. Wolfe, until every Apothecary in the land make
up their minds to discard the poisonous stuff from their
shelves, and replace it with Wolfe's pure WISES and
LIQUOR:3.
We understand Mr. Wolfe, for the accommodation of
small dealers in the country, puts up assorted cases of
Wines and Liquors. Such a man, an sash a merchant,
should be sustained against his tens of thousands of ori•
ponents in the United states, who sell nothing but Imita
tions, ruinous alike to health and human happiness.
