sances, or some other evils which the writers

A NEW VEO MOLE .—There has lately been
at several meetings of the Royal Hor
ti Society, a new vegetable, which
to become a permanent institution
;eninig kitchen garden crops. It is a cabbage
hi the form of Brussel's sprouts. The stem is
;11 , .a1t a foot high, bearing on its summit a good
heatted 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
tinguishes the Brussel's sprouts. The merit of
producing this variety is due to Mr. Wm. Mel
ville, Dahnenvy Park Gardens, near Edinburg,
and a very good name to distinguish it would
be to call it the Dalmeny sprout.
I=l
Pinau—Before the Mayor. —John Dugle----
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. Ho was sent across
the way for 48 hours.
James Suomiler another hard looking
".Trunk"—auswered the roll call. James was
tame reserved in his manners, and being on
Lk "first appearance," the Mayor discharged
him with an injunction to leave the city forth
with.
John Cole and Ben Smith were arrested on a
J•'egraphic dispatch from the authorities at
carlisle. The charge against them was of no
lions nature, and upon a conference with
ti . plaintiff they were discharged.
Turas is something devilish in the curiosity
haul has to gaze on accident and death. Let it
U e known that somebody has been drowned, and
frowds will rush to the spot, breathless, lest
I hey should arrive too late to see the appalling
si , ectaele of death. They do not come there for
the sake of rendering assistance ; it is but for
I he curiosity of seeing a drowned human being,
snd that they may gossip about it to all their
mends. The declining or decaying politician
understands this principle, or weakness. Ile
does not stand up in his place and abuse and
traduce honest men because he believes he can
may injure them. Nor does he conceal his
”wri short•coluing,s, by pointing to one of his
fellows, awl insinuating that if the world only
knew what some people had done, how indig
lat that abused world might be. By no means.
lie is in his last gasps. Ile finds the current is '
too strung for him ; he must go down, and he
dreads to sink sinless somebody is aware of his
fate, fearful that lie may not be gazed upon
after the final throe. hatever 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. They
wallo w , and grovel, and h&c, 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. Th e um ,
phisticated whose aid gave you notoriety and
position, have had the Sint removed from their
eyes, and care not now to have it giozing 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 tail-

DISCIPLINS IN nut Aaisy.—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
ho 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.
Officen, 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 INA
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 tbey
know to be kind and fraternal in their feelings,
yet consciously rigid in discipline. School boys
best love those teachers, and soldiers best love
those commanders, whom they would not dare
disobey. Wo to the enemy against whom such
4=B lead such soldiers as their kind, firm dis
cipline Wrist Happy the country whom such
an army deirinds.
prunovluania Wait (Irelegrapft, tUebnesbctp 91uguet-28,-
WHEN you see a young man not ashamed to
carry a parcel along the streets, you can make
up your mind that, with half a chance, he will
come to something.
MILLS STARTING Ur.—The Narragansel 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 he 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 atm, 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.
CAPT. WATERBURY'S COMPANY.—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 yesterday 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 this morning.
SEASON .BU REClPE.—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 tub.
HA 1311ISBURG FEMALE SEMINARY. 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 COLLVION.—The other day two
freight trains, drawn by engines No. 1 and 32,
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.
"Tug OLD Womax." —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 com
rades to the effect that he did not " care any
thing about the old woman."
Occasionally we have heard such remarks,
and without professing more than ordinary ven
eration for sacred things, we protestin the name
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 ? "
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 sorrtw over it. Don't do that again.
Peosrzerrx Is COMING.—We are going to be
prosperous yet, in spite of the war. The prey
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 np 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
graduglly awake from its lethargy. A national
bankrupt law, to be passed next winter, will
let lease. 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 ?
Mu. CH EM will serve up at the Buehler
House Restaurant this evening the following
bill of fare : Deviled Crabs, Boiled Crabs, Tur
tle Soup, Barbacued Chicken, Oysters in every
style, together with all the delicacies of the
season.
Daerritto SOLDILBS.-It is rumored this morn
ing that the government has commenced draft
ing. This will be of great advantage to that
portion of our community who have not been
able to make up their minds to go to war,
while we feel convinced that our friends may
be persuaded to let us go. We fear that some
might suffer in our absence; to all those we say
come at once to the cheap dry goods store of
Urich & Bowman, corner of Front and Market
streets.
HAVING returned from the city I now have on
hand a full assortment of all kinds of Dry
Goods : 200 pieces of new Calicos ; 200 dozen
of Stockings ; a splendid lot of Black Alapacha;

DAUPHIN COUNTY BIBLE SOCIETY.
The secretaries of the several town and town
ship societies, auxiliary to the coutty 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 mince our last meeting,
calls fur 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. HISETKR,
