Tim CITY SURVEY.-At Court yesterday, in
the matter of the report of the Commissioners
appointed to survey and lay out streets, &c., in
the city of Harrisburg, on m otion of Juo. C.
Emilie], Esq.. the time for filing exceptions to
said report Was extended to the 3d day of Sep
tember next
=nzmi
Tits SECESSIONISTS, Carson, Kelly and Pegrem,
who were arrested in this city last Wednesday,
b a d a further hearing before United States Com
missioner Fleeslet in Philadelphia last Saturday,
and will, it is said, on taking the oath of alle
giane,-, be discharged. Carson owns and occu
pies Montpelier, the old residence of President
Madison in Virginia. Kelly is Carson's travel
in: agent, and the letters in his possession de
tailed private bank business.
Tea MAYOR is almost daily in the receipt of
annonymous communications referring to cer
tain violations of the law, the existence of nui
sances, or some other evils which the writers
desire to have remedied by magisterial inter
!acmes Of course the Mayor can pay no at
tention whatever to these appeals, however de
serving of attention some of teem may be. His
duties as a magistrate is plainly marked out by
the law, and he can only act in the premises
when the proper information is made to him
under the oath or affirmation of the party
agiieved.
EIGHT , OF BIRDS.—We refer sportsmen to the
following provisions of an Act passed for the
outection of the birds, on the 14th of April,
: Any person destroying or entrapping
any butte bird, swallow, martin, or insectiver
,ll, bird, at any season of the year, is liable to
a fine of two dollars in each case. Pheasants
tire protected from the Ist of January to the Ist
„! sltember. Woodcock from the date first
ta(t,tioned to the 4th of July, and partridges
and rabbits from the same date until the Ist of
tuober ; the penalty in the above cases being
tier dollars. Rail and Reed birds have been an
inintimity from June Ist to September Ist under
a pcnal sum of five dollars, and those guilty of
de-troyiog the nests or eggs of the birds men
tioned, will upon conviction be fined two dol-
Lui in each case.

A Nsw VEGETABLE.—There has lately been
exhibited at several meetings of the Royal Hor
ttAtural Society, a new vegetable, which
pi.udses to become a permament institution
smug kitchen garden crops. It is a cabbage
it, the form of Brussel's sprouts. The stem is
about a foot high, bearing on its summit a good
.dLed hearted cabbage of the ordinary character;
but the stem is covered with small cabbages
about the size of a small dessert apple, and
these when cooked form an excellent dish, par
take of the flavor of a nice summer cabbage,
and without the strong Savoy flavor which dis
tingnishes the Brussel's sprouts. The merit of
producing this varietyjs due to Mr. Wm. Mel
ville, Dalmenvy Park Gardens, near Edinburg,
and a very good name to distinguish it would
be to call it the Dalmeny sprout.
=a=
Poues—Before the Mayor. —John Dugle—a
rough-hewed vagram, whose dilapidated gar
ments looked for all the world as if they had
previously done duty as a " scare-crow in a
corn field—was arraigned for drunkenness and
disorderly conduct. John had evidently been
imbibing fighting whisky, and felt numerous
enough to lick all creation. He was sent across
the way for 48 hours.
James Snowdler --- another hard looking
"drunk"--answered the roll call. James was
mute reserved in his manners, and being on
his "first appearance," the Mayor discharged
him with an injunction to leave the city forth
with.
John Cole and Ben Smith were arrested on a
telegraphic dispatch from the authorities at
t'arlisle. The charge against them was of no
serious nature, and upon a conference with
tile plaintiff they were discharged.
THERE is something devilish in the curiosity
man has to gaze on accident and death. Let it
be known that somebody has been drowned, and
rowds will rush to the spot, breathless, lest
they should arrive too late to see the appalling
spectacle of death. They do not come there for
the sake of rendering assistance ; it is but for
the curiosity of seeing a drowned human being,
and that they may gossip about it to all their
friends. The declining or decaying politician
understands this principle, or weakness. He
does not stand up in his place and abuse and
traduce honest men because he believes he can
or may injure them. Nor does he conceal his
own shortcomings, by pointing to one of his
fellows, and insinuating that if the world only
knew what some people had done, how indig
nant that abused world night be. By no means.
Ue is in his last gasps. He finds the current is
too strong for him ; he must go down, and he
dreads to sink unless somebody is aware of his
fate, fearful that he may not be gazed upon
after the final throe. Whatever may be the
morbid appetite of folks to look upon death,
there are no well authenticated instances of po
litical tricksters causing such a sensation. TLey
wallow, and grovel, and mire, like the swine,
and around a defunct hog only birds of foul
appetites assemble. So, impudent, brazen place.
man, seek no longer to create the curiosity
which a drowned body excites. The crowds
who saw your name on the dead walls long ag o ,
remember you by your shuffling. The unso
phisticated whose aid gave you notoriety and
position, have had the film removed from their
eyes, and care not now to have it glozing over
your's forever. The fact that they were the
subject of deceit is painful enough, without the
additional disgust of witnessing the close of a
miserable and hypocritical career. Wherefore
have done with harangues, imputations and
specious declamation. Every effort Must fail.
Like every other time-server, you must, in the
course of things, becom e of no consequence
whatever. to crofter would hold his quest

Dammam ral Tria Aamr.—He who is in
tractable to discipline, lacks the first element
of the true soldier's character. He is worthless,
and worse than worthless in an army, because
he cannot be made a consistent and organic
part of the army. He may be brave—he may
be a perfect fury in a fight ; but it will be only
by accident if his valor so conspires with that of
his comrades as to help them. The army is
better without him. For the integrity and re
liableness of the army, the sooner every such
man in it is discharged, or is killed, the better.
One of the worst dangers in our grand volun
teer army is, that the soldiers will not soon
enough be conscious of the value and necessity
of thorough discipline, and that the officers will
not have the nerve to enforce it. Courage, en
thusiasm, determination, every element of en
ergy, they have in abundance. But such energy
undisciplined is like that of an accidentally ex
ploding magazine, as likely, at least, to do
harm as to do good. Only by discipline can it
be like the powder beneath the bullet, in a well
aimed gun, sure to its appointed work irresista
bly.
Soldiers, be patient. Restrain your zeal.—
Hold yourselves obedient to the government
you mean to save. Trust the great commander
to whom you and your officers are subject.—
Improve all your time and all your opportuni
ties in acquiring the most perfect discipline.
Doubt not that you will thus, and thus only,
become the irresistable army that your country
needs, to overpower this gigantic rebellion.
Officers, while you set the example of prompt
obedience and complete subjection to your supe
riors, be fearless and strict in enforcing good
discipline upon all under your authority. The
soldiers themselves will, in the long run, be best
pleased with this. Whatever may appear to be
their preference in their hours of temporary res
tiveness, they will move to the battle most
fearlessly under the lead of officers whom they
know to be kind and fraternal in their feelings,
yet consciously r igid in discipline. School boys
best love those teachers, and soldiers beat love
those commanders, whom they would not dare
disobey. Wo to the enemy against whom such
officers lead such soldiers as their kind, firm dis
cipline forms. Happy the country whom such
an army Wads.

MILITARY RELIEF FUND.—A meeting of the

MILLS STARTING UP.—The NalTagatiSet Valley
has heard of preparations making to start up
several of the cotton mills in that vicinity which
have been standing still for a time past. The
manufacture of cloth for the army is to be the
immediate business.
The Lehigh Valley Times says that a wild ani
mal—a panther, wild cat or something of the
kind, has been seen on Lehigh Mountain. It
has scared the people of the neighborhood con
siderably, and expeditions of hunters have been
fitted out to capture it, but unsuccessful thus
far.
WE usu. attention to the request of the
President of the Dauphin County Bible Society,
auxiliary to the State Society, to be found in our
issue of to-day, and trust his efforts to make
Dauphin the banner county may be realized. We
understand the next annual meeting will be held
at Halifax in the month of November.
GOOD Thairrans.— A regular stated meeting
of Washington Lodge No. 1, I. 0. of Good
Templars, will be held at their Lodge, Sons of
Temperance Hall, at 7i o'clock this evening.
Every member of the order is requested to be
present, as business of importance will be trans
acted. The first number of the Lodge newspa
per will be published this evening.
CAPT. WATERBURY'S COUPANY.—The roll of
Capt. Isaac S. Waterbury's company now con
tains 85 names, fifty-five of whom answered to
their names at roll-call this morning. the
company are pleasantly quartered at Camp
Cameron, and seem to take on to camp life like
old "campaigners." The Captain desires all
his men to be at the camp at 8 o'clock pre
cisely to-morrow morning.
SzAsosentz Rears.—Fricaseed corn is an ex
cellent dish, and just now in season. To make
it, cut green corn off the the cobb ; put it in a
pot, and just cover it with water ; let it boil
one-half hour ; mix a spoonful of flour with
one-half pint of rich milk, pepper, salt, parsely,
thyme, and a piece of butter ; let it boil a few
minutes, and take it up in a deep dish. Corn
will do to cook in this way when too old to boil
on the cob.
Hasarsernta Faiian. SENINARt. The fall
term of this popular institution will commence
on Wednesday September 4. Under the able ad
ministration of Miss S. E. Dixon, the Semina
ry has attained the reputation of being among
the very best institution in the State for the
education of young ladies. For the coming
fall term the services of the most talented and ca
pable teachers have been secured who will spare
no pains in promoting the welfare of the pupils
in their charge. The Seminary deserves an ex
tended patronage.
RAILROAD CoausloN.—The other day two
freight trains, drawn by engines No. 1 and 82,
came in collision near Emigsville, four miles
north of York. Both engines were considera
bly injured, besides a number of cars. The
wreck completely blocked up the road, and
passengers were obliged to change cars at York
in order to proceed on their journey. The
road was not cleared until the following day.
We understand that the smash up was the re
sult of carelessness on the part of one of the
conductors, who was running his train out of
time when the collision occurred.
" Tax OLD WOMAN." —We heard a young
man who has turned his second corner in life—
as he was smoking a cheap cigar on the street
the other night, speaking to some noisy corn
rules to the effect that he did not " care any
thing about the old woman."
Occasionally we have beard such remarks,
and without professing more than ordinary ven
eration for sacred things, we protest in thename
of manhood or boyhood against the intolerable
nuisance.
Young man, it might have seemed a brave
assertion to you, and the phrase might have
sounded "smart" to those who heard it ; but
do you not know that, in point of worldly wis
dom, even, you are still a child, beside the sa
cred character you so flippantly denominate
"The old woman P "
When life is shorn of the cares and curses
that rests lightly, perhaps, around your path
way now, and you are called to half realize the
tone of such a thought, you will shrink from
it, and sorrow over it. Don't do that again.
PROSPERITY is Commo.—We are going to be
prosperous yet, in spite of the war. The pres
ent stagnation of trade and enterprise is owing
to a panic among business men ; and that panic
arises from an exaggerated apprehension.of the
disasterous effects of a national conflict upon
the money market. But, as the enormous sums
of money expended in the war are distributed
among our own citizens ; as the gold and silver
still remain in the country ; as millions of dol
lars in United States treasury notes are about
to find their way into the channels of trade—
inflating the currency, and stirring up the dor
mant spirit of enterprise into activity—this
panic will soon cease. There will be no excuse
for it. Money will be too abundant to permit
us to feel an unusual alarm. Business will
grads .lly awake from its lethargy. A national
bankrupt law, to be passed next winter, will
let loose thousands of stirring and original
minds into the walks of life, which, hitherto,
have been manacled to indolence by ancient
misfortunes. Who can over-estimate the won
derful effect upon a "nation of shopkeepers" of
three such inspiring events, viz : a restoration
of confidence, a judicious inflation of the mone
tary field, and a discreet removal of the bonds
that now tie up the energies of the unfortunate ?

DAUPHIN COUNTY BIBLE SOCIETY
The secretaries of the several town and town
ship societies, auxiliary to the county society,
are respectfully reminded that the period has
arrived when it was recommended, at the last
annual meeting, collections in aid of its funds
should be made.
It is earnestly desired that Dauphin should
be the banner county of the State in this good
cause—a result nearly attained last year with
out extraordinary effort. The great demand
on the parent society for Bibles to supply the
soldiers of the army since our last meeting,
calls for more than ordinary effort on the part
of auxiliaries at this time. It has been found
that the appointment of a committee of ladies
in each district to call upon every citizen to
contribute their mite, has in the past proved
very successful, and that course is now recom
mended. A. 0. Rama,

My ego Is about 50 years ; the color 01 nit hair auburn,

of these oisagrseabillties Increased WHO time, and about
four months since a fourth was added to them, by bair
falling oft the top of my bead and threatuniug to make
me bald.
In this unpleasaut predicament, I Iftlo Induced to try
Wood'., Hair Restorative, mainly to arrest the Calling
off of my hair, for I had realty no expectation that gray
hair could over be restored to its °nipped color erce_p
from dyes. I was, however, greatly eurpris A. to find
after the use of two bottles only, that not only was the
falling oh arrested, but the color was restored to the gray
hairs and sensibility to the scalp, and dandruff ceased to
form on my head, very much to the gratification of my
wife, at weoee solicitation I was induced to try it.
For this, among the many obligations I owe to her sex,
strongly recommend all husbands who value the d
mlration of tbeir w.v s to profit by my example, and
use t it growing gray or getting bald.
Very retpeethrily, BKN A. LAVENDER.
