FROM CAMP SCOTT.—Lieut. Charles A. Davis,
of the State Capital Guard, was in town last
evening. He reported everything going on
finely at Caw s.!.e.:^nr, and to the satisfaction
of men and officers. In anticipation of his
regiment leaving to-day en route for the South,
the Lieutenant returned to York this morning.

REOINENTAL PARADE.—The regimental parade
at Uniontown, on Sunday last, was participated
in by ell the companies in that section of the
county, and passed off with great "pomp and
circumstance." All the participants expressed
a willingness to march in defence of the "stars
and stripes," should their services be required.
The occar4on attracted an immense crowd of
"lads and rosy lasses" from the rural districts,
and the vendors of pea-nuts and ginger-bread
did a profitable business, while the delectable
beverage known as lager flowed in continuous
streams during the day. The annual military
muster at the " upper end " is a great institu
tion.
Peomortn. 7 -11r. Frank A. Davies, of this
city, who recently graduated at West Point, has
been commissioned as Second Lieutenant in the
United States Artillery. He is now in Wash
ington city, and for the present has been de
tailed to drill the LochielGreys. Lieut. Davies
graduated with the highest honors, and will
make a brave and accomplished officer. He
will serve his country faithfully, and in such a
way as to win honor for himself and do credit
to his native city, Lieut. Davies is a nephew
of Brigadier General E. C. Williams, of this
city, who was instrumental in procuring his ap
pointment to the national military school.
Seaman.* Waono„—The Lancaster Express
learns from private letters received from
members of companies stationed along the
Northern Central Railroad,guarding the bridges,
that a number of the men are indisposed, the
change of water not agreeing with them. They
had also been unable to procure straw, and an
officer was despatched to York to procure that
and other necessary supplies. We have heard
similar complaints made by members of the
Cameron Guard. It seems to us that our State
authorities are guilty of censurable negligence
in sending these men off without properly pro
viding for their comfort ; and if a little more
attention is not given in this direction somebody
will have to meet with a fearful reckoning at
last.
i=oz=
CITIZEN MILITARY COMPANY.—The members
of the Citizen Fire Company have organized a
military corps for drill exercise, and meet
nightly for that purpose. The commandant,
Dr. C. Seiler, is one of the best military tacti
cians and drill officers in the State, and the
"boys" will soon become perfect in the science
of war under his instruction. Should their
services be required during the progress of the
war, they will rally under the "flag of the
Union" and march in defence of their country.
The movement of the Citizen company is wor
thy of imitation by the entire fire department
of our city. In the present crisis it is the
duty of all citizens to familiarize themselves
with military tactics, for there is no knowing
how soon they may be called upon to take up
arms iu support of the Government.
COMMENDABLE AND PATRIOTIC.—A number of
ladies of this city to-day presented the compa
nies known as the " Buck Tails," with a large
quantity of pies and other delicacies. While
other companies in camp have received the
kindest attention from their friends here, and
"fared sumptuously every day," the rough
looking
hut gallant men from the " wild cat
district" have received indifferent treatment
from government as well as community. The
sympathizing la dies of Harrisburg who have
voluntarily undertaken to provide these brave
sons of the northern tier with supplies of deli
cacies to which they are unaccustomed in camp,
are deserving of the highest commendation.
Thu articles were forwarded to camp this
afternoon, and presented by the donors in
person. God Mess the women—their hearts
beat time to the music of the Union, and they
are always
"First in freedom's cause to stand,
The champions of their native land."
Wirer SUNDAY. —Last Sunday being what is
denominated " Whit Sunday," or the "Feast
of Pentecost," the occasion was duly observed
in the Catholic and Episcopal churches of this
city. The " Feast of Pentecost," under the
Jewish Economy, was one of their three great
yearly festivals, and was signalized by offering
the "first fruits" of the year in the Temple at
Jerusalem, as it was also in a measure com
memorative of the promulgation of the law
from Mount Sinai. The Pentecost now observ
ed by the churches--first established as a Chris
tian festival in the fourth century—commemo
rates the descent of the Holy Ghost, ten days
after the Ascension of our Lord, and the con
verts of that day, (three thousand, as we read in
Aets,) as the "first fruits" of the Spirit, cures
pond to the "first fruits " of the secured har
vest ander the Mosaic dispensation. The day
is called Whit Sunday and Whit-sunlide, from
the fact that on it white vestments are used in
many of the churches, by the neophites baptiz
ed on the previous day, whit being a contraction
of white. Tide is an old name for day or season.
The observance of this feast is mainly confined
to the Catholic, Episcopal, Moravian, and some
of the Lutheran churches, in many of which
the ceremonies for the day are peculiar and im
pressive. In the Catholic church, the vest
ments used on this day, by pontiffs, priests,
and ministers, are of red color, with the two
fold idea of symbolizing the "tongues like as
of fire," and teaching that by receiving the
Holy Ghost, and his sanctifying gifts, the re
cipients are to be ready to maintain their faith
to the death, the red color being for this same
reason chosen by the Catholic church in all her
stivale of martyrs.
SEILDR GUARDS, ATTENTION !--Poll are re
quested to meet for drill to-worrow (Wedrics
day) evening at 7 o'clock, at the usual place.
I=l
ANOTHER COMPANY. —An effort is now being
made to form an Infantry company in this city,
to serve for three years or during the war
Those who desire to enroll themselves as mew
hers of this new corps can do so by calling on
Mr. John J. Ball, one of the originators of the
movement, and a gentleman of considerable
military experience. It is understood that
this company will be accepted as soon as the
ranks are filled and a tender of services made.
Loox OUT FOR THEM.—I❑ these times of
" wars and rumors of wars" there are scores
of persons afloat with an eye to business, some
of whom peddle badges and Union devices, fed
eral emblems, &c., and others who play upon
the charity of the public by stating that they
hare lately made their escape from the South,
barely with their lives, on account of their
Union sentiments, and being without homes or
money are in need of public charity. Fellows
of this description have visited various com
munities, and drawn support largely from the
generous; and we wish to caution the public
against a:too liberal use of their means for the
benefit of this class, most of whom are - mere
speculators, getting a subsistence, or making a
"big thing" out of public sympathy. Look out
for the swindlers.
=MEI
FIREMEN-SOLDIERS.—No men in community
are more patriotic and chivalrous than the
members of our fire department. Every com
pany in our city Las more or less represcinta.
fives in the military companies organized here
and now in service. Twenty-five of the "Friend
ship boys" are now serving under the flag
of their country, and we have every confidence
that they will acquit themselves honorably,
and if their lives are spared, return from the
conflict with "brows bound with victorious
wreaths." At a meeting of the Friendship
Company, held at their hall on Monday eve
ning, the following preamble and resolutions
were unanimously adopted :
WHEREAS, Twenty-five members of the
Friendship Fire Company, No. 1, have joined
different military companies,' and are now in
the service of our country, ready and willing
to risk their lives in upholding the best gov
ernment in the world : And whereas, Such true
patriotism on the part of our fellow members
deserves a fitting recognition at our hands;
therefore, be it
Resolved, That our fellow-members who have
left us for the war carry with them our highest
regard and esteem ; that we wish them every
prosperity and hope the God of battles will
watch over and protect them.
Resolved, that the absent members who have
gone to war be exempt from the payment of
all dues, and those who return shall maintain
the same position they did in the company at
the time they left
By order of the Company.
A CARD ON THANKS.—The few ladies who pot
forth their efforts to procure the flag, which
they presented to the Lochiel Greys previous to
their departure from this city, tender their
sincere thanks to Mr. Herr, for his kindness in
addressing the company, and presenting to
them the national ensign in the name of their
lady friends. The sorrow felt by the ladies at
parting with their relatives and friends, wholly
unfitted them to give this communication
sooner :
Ma. EDITOR :—lt was the intention of those
who obtained the flag for the Lochiel Grays, to
make a handsome silk one, of which we believe
they are worthy ; and the ladies were evencall
ed together for that purpose, but from the
latest report that reached them from Camp
Curtin, that the company was going to leave
on the next day at one o'clock, rather than
they should go away without receiving such a
testimonial of their regard and esteem, in the
hurry of the moment, they could do nothing
more tt an procure the best one that could be
obtained in our city, and that one was of bun
ting which is considered the only proper ma
terial of which our national flags are made. It
was a disappointment to the ladies that they
could not purchase a finer quality even of that
material. These remarks were suggested by
some observations which were overheard from
some who were not engaged in the undertaking.
Believing that the members of the Lochiel
Greys appreciate the motive more than the
value of the article, and knowing that that
Star Spangled Banner, however uncostly its
texture, did and will awaken as much patriotic
enthusiasm and devotion to the cause, as the
costliest fabric that is made, they wish them a
God's speed in their noble acts to restore the
Union, and a safe return to their homes, rela
tives and friends. Already they have won
laurels in this the commencement of their
military career, and doubtless during its con
tinuation, they will add newly gained laurels
to those already won.
Tun CAMERON Gunn. —An item appeared in
some of the papers recently, to the effect that
a squad of the Cameron Guard, commanded by
Lieut. Davis, "had a brush with the secession
ists" at the St. James bridge. The statement
was incorrect; as will be seen by the following
extract from a letter isrittea by a member of
the squad to hie father in this city. Those of
our citizens who have friends in the company
will be glad to learn that they are treated with
the utmost kindness and hospitality by the la
dies in that vicinity, most of whom are "for
the Union," and feel grateful for the protection
afforded them by the gallant soldiers of the old
Keystone. The extract from the letter referred
to reads as follows :
DAMP DAVIS,
Near Philopolis, May 20, 1801.
a 00 In my last I believe I told you that I had
been detailed along with Lieut. Davis, Sergt.
Hummel and fourteen privates, to go about
five miles from our company, and take charge
of a bridge that had been overlooked. I read
yesterday, in a last week's paper, that Lieut.
Davis' command had "a brush with the Se
cessionists " Now, I suppose you read the
same, and were a little anxious to hear the
truth of it. But it is not correct, as it is very
hard to find any Secessionists around here—
only some four or five families, and they keep
very quiet. We appear to be very well liked
by the people living around here, and they are
very kind to us, giving us everything w e need.
We are living as well here now as any of us
ever did at home. Yesterday there was at
least a hundred ladies to see us, and nearly all
of them brought something for the Pennsylva
nia soldiers that were going to protect their
property.
It is not known yet how long we will stay
here. I think we will put in the best part of
our three mouths here, although we may leave
in an hour, for I have found out they give us
very short notice when they want to move us.
We are all enjoying good health, and, I think,
improving in flesh a little. W.

A TRAITOR Hut% IN EFFIGY —The patalotie
citizens of Gratztown and vicinity assembled is
that village a few days ago and hung Jeff. Davis
in effigy. The figure intended to represent the
arch-traitor, after remaining suspended for some
time, was taken down and burned in the public
square.
COUNTERFEIT NOTE. —A new ten dollar note
on the Merchants' and Mechanics' Bank 01
Wheeling has made its appearance. Look out
for it. It is a dangerous counterfeit, and well
calculated to deceive. The red of the bill in
the counterfeit is deeper than that of the gen
uine, and the former is more imperfectly exe
cuted, but it would nevertheless be readily re
ceived by the best judges of money, unless
warned of its existence.
KEPNER FENCIBLES. —The ranks of this new
company, called after our worthy Mayor and
public-spirited fellow-citizen, Win. 11. Kepner,
Esq., are rapidly filling up. It is composed of
intelligent and gallant young men, and when
fully organized and equipped will be one of the
tinest,military corps in the interior of the State.
A meeting of the company will be held at Ex
change Hall to-morrow evening, fur the trans
aetion of important business, and every mem
ber is desired to be punctual in attendance.
ARRIVAL 01' MILITARY.—This afternoon the
Honesdale Guards, Capt. Wright, arrived in
this city, with a view of tendering their services
to the Governor under the three years' requisi
tion. The company numbers about eighty
men, fully armed, handsomely equipped with
blue shirts, and pr vided with haversacks.—
Few finer looking companies have reached
here since the establishment of the camp. The
men look like soldiers, and march with theac
curacy and precision of military veterans. Of
course they will be accepted.
TBNDSR OF &mums The Lykens Valley
Cavalry have tendered their services to the
Governor and been accepted under the last re
quisition for three years. The company is offi
cered as follows: Captain—Jonas Louden-
Schlager. First Lieut.—lsaiah S. Schminkey
Second Lieutenant—John Scheffir. Second 2d
Lieut.—Adolphe Wolf We learn that Colonel
Baker's whole regiment are willing to march
whenever their services shall be Eequired, and
Brigade Inspector Loudenschlagsr has ordered
the Captains of the various companies to hold
them in readiness for marching at any moment.
It is evident that the sturdy yeomanry of the
" upper end " do not lack patriotism or valor.
THE LIFE OF MAJOR ANDRE, jUSt published, is
timely. The general government had better
instruct each of its officers, military and civil,
to purchase a copy. It shows him to be a man
of culture, and of tender and noble sentiments,
but engaged in a bad cause, and a just victim
to the government he sought to overthrow.
Had they not betler follow it up with a life of
Benedict Arnold, to be distributed gratuitously
in the Confederate States?
The above is published as a passing notice;
and we will also state that owing to detention
on the railroad, over which we had no control,
we dal not receive our large stock of Summer

The Government Sustained.
Interesting Incidents—Singing of the
Star Spangled Banner.
The General Assembly met at the First Pres
byterian Church, in Syracuse, Thursday morn
ing, 16th inst., at 11 o'clock, and was opened
with a sermon by the Rev. Thornton A. Mills,
the last Moderator. Two hundred and fifty
Commissioners were present.
The Rev. J. B. Condit, D. D., Professor iu
the Auburn Theological University, was chosen
Moderator, his principal competitor being the
Rev. Asa D. Smith, D. D., of New York city.
For some reason the Assembly took up the
question of the place of the next meeting at
this early period, when Cincinnati, Ohio, was
chosen.
Both on Thursday and Friday evenings
meetings were held on the State of the coun
try. The church, which is a very large one,
was filled with members of the Assembly and
citizens and ladies of Syracuse. Addresses were
delivered, interspersed with singing and pray
er. Among others who spoke were Dr. Cox,
Peter Fisch, Drs. Johnson and Darling, of
Philadelphia ; Mr. Emerson, of Delaware, and
others. Rey. Mr. Waldo, over ninety years of
age, who enlisted in the Revolutionary war at
sixteen years of age, made an interesting ad
dress. The spirit of patriotism mounted very
high. The exercises on Friday evening were
concluded by singing, amidst great enthusiasm,
the Star Spangled Banner. The General As
trimbly are to a man in favor of the Union,
Strong resolutions sustaining the Government
were adopted.
The Assembly adopted a resolution urging
the ministers and churches to a faithful effort
against the temptations of intemperance which
beset young men in camp life.
The trustees of the church erection fund re
ported the whole amount of the fund at $114,-
000, and thirty-two churches have been aided in
building during the past year.
The evening was once more devoted to pray
er for the nation.
