A Smasu Ur.— Two or three cars at the rear

was caused by the breaking of a rail.

r Just after candle light recently,
an immense number of large flies made their
appearance around the gas lights in and about
the Gas Woihs at E istow, and after flying near,
the lights for a short time they fell dead.. Next
morning bu,htits of them were found dead on
the ground at the places named, and the smell
from them, we are told was sickening.

THE Scow REGIMENT Coin , Awr.—The company
which is being formed in this city for the
..'llomas A. Scott Regiment," is rapidly filling
up, and the Captain wishes about thirty men
to make the requisite number: The duties of
this regiment are such as to offer great induce:-
wilts to young men. We would refer such as
wish to attach themselves to call at the office,
No, 92 Market street, near Fourth, in this city.
The nice are requested to meet at the rendez
runs, at ten o'clock this morning, to prer
pare for going into camp.
LTOTUILE ON - ThIiIPERANCIL—L. L. Allen, of
Ohio, a popular and eloquent speaker, will de
liver an address on the evils of intemperance
next Sunday evening, at 71 o'clock, in the Me
thodist church, Locust street. "far. Allen comes
among us highly recommended, and his lecture
will no doubt be very entertaining and instruc
tive. We hope to see a general attendance of
our citizens present on the occasion.
=MEI
STOCK—The quantity of stock which has pas
sed through York, says the Republican, during the
week has been exceedingly large, every day
bringing several trains freighted with cattle,
horses, sheep and hogs of the finest kind. Most
of this stock is intended to supply the army,
and the quantity which weekly passes over the
Northern Central road gives some faint idea of
the immense expenses attending the war now
in progress in the land.
BILL FRIDT AT TILE "UPPER END."—A COTTCS
pondent of the Lyken's Journal, notices a peach
raised by Mr. Geo. J. Kampbell of Millersburg,
which measured about nine inches in circum
ference ; also a pear, raised by Mr. G. W. Bru
baker measuring over t.ti inches in circumfer
ence, and a cucumber cn a vine in the garden
of Dr. B. G. Weaver, measuring seventeen in
ches in length and eleven inches and a half in
circumference. Bully for Millersburg.
BEES BOILED FOR THEIR &MAR.—Certain sugar
refiners on the banks of the Oder, being troubled
by bees, who sought their capital for honey
making in the refineries, hit upon a plan for
ridding themselves of the nuisance, which
proved quite profitable. The visitors were de
coyed into one apartment, where they were
subject to a hot bath, by which means thou
sands were killed at once, and their bodies be
' lug afterward thrown into a boiler the stolen
property was extracted from them. It is esti
mated lira, as many as eleven millions were
destroyed within a year, and about twelve hun
dred francs worth of sugar extracted fron t them.
Thor REAL VALUE OF INDIAN 0011 N.—By those
who do not know, or who are too scientific to
profit by the experience of nations of men and
herds of fat cattle, Indian corn, rice, buckwheat,
etc., are only considered good fodder. Leibig
stales that if we were subject to the same degree
of cold as the Someides, we sit:add be able to
consume the half of a calf and a dozen candles
at a single meal. During sxcessive fatigue in
I.wtemperature, wheat flour fails to sustain
tem. This is owing to a deficiency in
the elements necessary to supply animal heat,
and the strong desire for oleaginous substances,
under these circumstances, hat led to thebeliet
that animal food is necessary to the human sup
port. lint late scientific experiments have led
to better acquaintance with the habits of the
North American Indians, and show that vege
table oil answers the same purpose as animal
food ; that one pound of parched Indian corn,
or an equal quantity of corn meal made into
bread is more than equivalent to two pounds of
fat meat.
Meal from Indian corn, contains more than
four times as much oleaginous matter as wheat
Hour ; more starch, and is consequently capable
of producing more sugar though less glubn ;
in other important compounds it contains near
ly as much nitrogenous material. Th e combi
nation of alimentary compounds in Indian corn
renders it alone the mixed diet capable of sus
taining man under the more extraordinary cir
cumstances. In it there is a natural coalescence
of elementary principles which constitute the
basis of organic life, that exist in no other vege
table production. In ultimate composition, in
nutritious properties, in digestibility, and in its
adaptation to the various necessities of animal
life in the different climates of the earth, corn
meal is capable of supplying more .ofthe abso
lute want of the adult human systernisthan any
other single eialatanee in nature.
JUST OPENED.-J. Wise has just opened a
room in Stehley's buildings, adjoining our
office, for the sale of all kinds of friiit, confer
tioneries, &c., and invites all his old patrons to
give him a call.
Perms—Before the Mayor.—James M' Donnel—
a jolly son of the "Emerald Isle" with a rubi
cond face as broad as his brogue—was arraigned
for drunkenness. James was remanded for a
further hearing.
Three other Irishmen—voluntary inmates of
the lock-up—presented themselves, and were
discharged.
Pat Galavaw was arraigned for stealing a
pistol from Alex. Wells, who, we be'ieve, keeps
a tavern at the other end of the bridge. Dis
charged for non-appearance of the prosecutor.
RAILROAD Acorns:pr.—As the express train on
the Northern Central Railroad was entering
York shortly after 4 o'clock Thusday morning,
one of the switches happened to be misplaced,
and the engine, Zenus Barnum, which was
drawing the train, ran into a aiding and struck
a gondola car which was standing there. The
head light of the engine was knocked off by
the concussion and the cast-iron front broken
to pieces, besides other alga' damages. An
other engine had to be gottenteady to early the
train, which caused a delay of one hour.
B AND SEIM. —We -have anthori
for s fiat any quantity of army blankets
are wanted by the Quartermaster General of
Pennsylvania, and we commend the subject to
persons who have idle milk Shoes are also
wanted, and by a number of shoemakers com
bining together, each having a private mark, so
as to'make the delivery in suitable lots, a large
contract can be readily secured. We can give
some further information as to prices, &c., and
although not so remunerative as custom work,
yet there is ample room for setting every fuller
and shoemaker in the State at work. Union
county alone, we understand, is now supplying
that department with about 400 blankets,
weighing four pounds each, per week, equal
if not superior to any hitherto furnished.
MKOICARY ASPIRANTS.A.Vird . deaI of misap
piehemdon exists among those who`are looking
forward to receive the second lieutenancies ih
the army. By a decision of the War DePart_
meat, all the vacant second lieutenancies of
'the new regiments added to the regular service
are to be taken from the ranks, so as to en-`
courage the privates to be worthy of promotion.
These regiments are, we believe,' eleven in
number. When it is remembered that the
regiments enlisted for the war amount now to
over two hundred, the justice of confining the
appointment of second lieutenants in the army
to the meritorious privates in that service will
be admitted. The man in the volunteer army
for the war have many more chances than those
who propose making the military their life pro
fession. Those who object to this will have
only to enlist in the regular service to entitle
themselves to promotion in that service. Should
the whole army force be hereafter consolidated
into one body, as advocated by many, the
equality of the arrangement alluded to will be
still more obvious.
THE BEATS AT Hone.—Let it not be suppos
ed that those whO remain at home cannot serve
their country just as effectually as those who
go to war. There are a thousand things which
can be done to add to the comfort of our brave
men and urge them on to Victory. The ladies,
especially, can do much -they have done much
already—in mitigating the severities of camp
life. And when the news of a reverse to our
arms reaches them they suffer just as Acutely
as the soldier on the battle field. The following
charming little poem, entitled the "Brave at
Home," is from the pen of J. Buchanan, Read,
and may be appropriately placed in the local
department
The maid who binds her warrior's sash,
With smile that well her pain dissembles,
The while beneath her drooping lash
One starry tear-drop hangs and trembles,
Tho' heaven alone records the tear,
And Fame shalt never know her story,
Her heart has shed a drop as. dear
As ever dewed the field of glory.
The wife who girds her husband's sword,
'Mid little ones who weep and wonder,
And bravely speaks the cheering word,
What tho' her heart be rent asunder—
Doomed nightly in her dretuns to hear
The bolts of war around him rattle,
Rath shed as sacred blood as e'er
Was poured upon the plain of battle !
The mother who conceals her grief,
While to her breast her son she presses,
Then breathes a few brave words and brief,
Kissing the patriot brow she blesses,
With no one but her secret God,
To know the pain that weighs upon her,
Sheds holy blood as e'er the sod
Received on Freedom's field of honor?
DIFFICULTY ON TER RAILROAD.—A feW days
ago a difficulty occurred on the accommodation
train on the Northern Central Railroad, : going
soutlArom York, 'between an officer of the 20th
Indiana regiment, How stationed along the
road guarding the bridges, and some of the
officers in charge of the train. The Republican,
of York, says that the officer was riding on the
train, and just before arriving at Parkton Mr.
Young, the conductor, demanded his ticket or
pass, which he was unable to produce.' The
conductor informed him that he must either
pay his fare or leave the train, onwhich he made
use of the most insulting language, and I tlefied
any one to put him off. The brakeman of the
train, on arriving at Parkton, ordesed hiM off,
and on his refusal to go pushed him froM the
train, when he drew a revolver and threatened
to shoot if he was not permitted to ride on the
train.
An altercation ensued, during which tie pie
tol was'taken from him and placed in the bag
gage car. Several of his comrades who! were
on the train then came up, and on the produc
tion of a pass by one of them he was showed
to get on the train again and proceeded tckock
qsville• The soldiers then left the train and
approached the baggage car demanding toe pis
tol, and threatening to stop the train if it was
not restored to them. After some parley the
pistol was given to one of the party, .. the
tram proceeded on its way. The, affair eated
considerable excitement on the. train, •• •y of
the passengers epprebendingli'.. • ..:`•
which at onetime seemed imminent.

TliE FIN/US—Messrs. Canon, Pegram and
Kelley, of Baltimore, lately arrested in this city,
on the charge of being inimical to the govent
ment, were discharged at Philadelphia ou
Wednesday, by order of Jndge Cadwallader,

Coas.—After our report closed
on Thursday, the Grand Jury submitted their
usual report, and were dismissed for • the term.
' porn. vs. Johnathan Swab, Wm. ' Swab and
Joilia Blystone. Assault and battery on oath
of Dr. G. B. Hoover. Jury out.
Com. vs. Adam Iloffinan, assault and battery
on oath of Jno. W. Fdrney, of Millersburg.—
Jury out at 3i o'clock.
The court then proceeded to the trial of the
i k
cabs of the Corn. vs. W. Starry, indicted
for the in4er 9f.1 ' ' Asi. , l-.Harrisburg about
three We* ago, th ' iticulars of which were
published in the TELBORAPII at the time. A. full
report of the testimony in the case will be found
on our first page.
WOMEN NOT ANGEIB.-It is usual for men in
love to fancy that their cheres conies are angels,
though sometimes they pron Ounce them, after
marriage, exactly the other thing. Goddesses
are scarce articles in these days, and we are
afraid would be, even if abundant, scarcely the
kind of creatures out of whom we would hope
to manufacture good wives. Angels would be
still less likely to please any man out of the
love-making stage .of his existence. Angels
might suit us to fall down on our kneeshefore,
to worship, to dream about, to exalt our chiv
alry, and elevate our amour proprie ; but after
wedlock an angel would be Out of place even in
a parlor. An angel in hoop-skirts would be in
a droll costume. An angel sitting down to beef
steak or mutton-chops would be abominably
unpicturesque. And yet a costume such as be
fits an angel would not be ,called Modest ; and
ambrosia, the " food of gods," is not disposed
of in our markets.
It is women—solid, substantial, Bettye, in-,
dustrious women—and not angels or goddesses,
that men want for "help-mates" in ordinary
life. A woman with a 'good bust and good ap
petite—a woman with a good digestion and a
good temper—is worth, as a domestic company
ion, all the angels we read about in ' sacred
books, and all the goddesses we meet in profane
ones. For, 'let us whisper into inexperienced
ears that, foolish as It may seem to overlook
good looks and dwell upon a good appetite, the
best woman in the world will soon hecome
homely when her appetite forsakes hei • and the
moat loving wife becomes, of necessity, morose
when shelsses her.digestion. It would snrprise
us all, if we could only know exactly hob much
a woman's comeliness, amiability, correct judg
ment, and a proper deportment, depends on her
capacity to eat, drink, and digest • the " good
things" of life with satisfaction and healthful
ness. Men are, to a great extent, just what
their physical condition makes them. Women
are still more the creatures of their physique;
and were they not, they might be "angels
but they would not be sufficiently human to
awaken all our affection, or elicit all our indear
ments.
HAMILTON'S HUNTINGDON REGLICSNT or r LIGHT

ing up his regiment. Men enlisting will receive
rations on signing the muster roll, and be uni

of these nisagreeabilittes increased with acme, and about
four manilla since a fourth was added to them, by hat
falling off the top of my head and threateniug to mai&

In this unpleasant predicament, I was iodaced to try
Wood't Hair Routh attar, Mini). to arrest the fat tog
oil of my hair, for 1 bad realiy no expectation (List gray
hair could ever be restored to its origival color excep
from dtmi. I was, however, greatly surprised to find
After the use of two bo tles only, that not only WA+ the
rallies oft arrested, but the color was restored to ihe gray
hairs and seosibilty to ihe scalp, and dandroll ceased to
form on my head very much to the gratilicipion of my
mite, at whom solicitattoo I was tuduoed to try It.
For this, among the many obligations I dine to her sex,
I strongly recommend all hatbands who vane the d

use tit growing gray or getting bald.
