one o'clock the Friendship Fire Company ex

manufactured expressly for them by the Man

shire. The occasion is to be celebrated by a
grand procession of .the firemen of the city, of
which the following is

The different fire companies of our city will

In the evening a grand ball will be given at
Bmnt's City Hall. It is expected that the
military and citizens generally will be present
at this ball, and from an examination of the
list of invitations we. are confident that in point
of youth and beauty, it will far excell any simi
lar assemblage convened in this city for many
years.
The Friendship "boys" deserve the confidence
and encouragement of the people of Harrisburg
for their enterprise in this business. As a fire
company they will rank with any in the com
monwealth, and as an organization of young
men they cannot be excelled for devotion to the
interests of their fellow citizens, and attach
ment to the cause of the Union They deserve
a bumper.
FER.E.—The alarm of fire about 7 o'clock last
evening NVEIB caused by the burning of a barrel
of naptha, in the cellar of Kelker's Hardware
store, Marked Square. It appears that one of
the clerks of the establishment went to draw a
quantity of the fluid for a customer, when a
few sprinkles from the spigot communicated
with the light he carried and in an instant the
entire barrel was enveloped in flames. The
alarm was quickly raised, and the fire subdued
.before any material damage was done.

From Pooch, Sept. 7, Bel
Mr. John Bull to the ' United States,
On being Invited to Contribute to the American Loan
Did you ever imagine me lending you money
Well, of all Yankee notions that's far the most
funny ;
Lend you money I—for what when the loan you
have gotten ?
Why to throw it away In withholding my
cotton !
Fortune favors the brave, and your courage I
own,
Notwithstanding Bull's Rim : but rare fortune
alone
Can afford you success in this maddest of wars.
You've no visible chance to regain your lost
stars. s.
You '1 spend all you borrow in powder and ball,
And then have to show for it—nothing at all.
What dividends, pray, are you like to declare
On the debt you'll have sunk and blown into
the air I
Why, you know that you'd not stand the
slightest taxation
That you could get rid of by Repudiation,
Though of value received in the fullest fruition,
Not paying for that which has gone to perdition.
The cost of your war you expect to defray
By an Income Tax, do you, and that who will
pay?
So keen and so smart in all matters of pelf,
To think of a Yankee assessing himself
I know I am rather a sordid old screw,
Lending money I care not what for or whom to,
So the party is solvent, but that is, with Joss,
A point indispensable—sine qua 11071.
But, hang it, though cash I may lend to the
deuce,
If secure of investment, regardles of use,
When the object is evil, and hopeless the gain,
I should be, if I so misemployed it, insane.
Last of all, to abuse me, malign, and decry,
And threaten to, whip and to rob by-and-by,
Is not quite the right way, not the language
and tone,
To got out of me an American Loan.
Answer.
LWritten for the Telegraph.]
Why John ! you fat, greasy, conceited old cuss
Do you think therii's no money but What's in
• your puss?
And wherever a dollar is wanted for war
We must go to Threadneedle street , no odds
how far.
You seem interested in this little fight,
But with hands in your pockets forget which is
right.
Other folks heretofore for their war loans have
tax' d you,
Bat " this load of poles" I'm sure nobody ax'd
you.
You've whin'd and youv'e whimper'd from
Exeter Hall,
About morals and ethics and slav'ry and all,
Till people are sick of your nonsense and
twaddle,
And some folks have thought you quite turned
in the noddle.
But the minit a screw turns that presses on
cotton,
We And all your moral professions are rotten,
And you load with self-seeking advice folks of
age,
To take care of themselves, be you never so sage
Who asked for your counsel, your pounds or
your pence?
My quar'l is my own, and whatever pretence
You set up fora Mentor, rdbave you to lam
For your wisdom or lucre I don't care a darn.
Lay low and keep dark, uncle John, and I'll
show ye
The gaul darnedest scrimmage yet mentioned
in story,
And as for your money,• just keep what you've
got,
And my cotton shall go where I choose it, or
rot,
You know I was always a singular cretur,
One half I'm a hoes tother half aligator.
This last part is restive just now it is true,
But I'll cure him of that, John, and no thanks
to you.
The spunk and endtmance--the wisdom and
Pelf,
I have and can git just as well as yourself.
I'm young and I'm hearty—can do my own
rightin,
Be my wrongs what they may they need none
of your rightin.
So now keep your pounds and your prate till I
ask
Your advice or your gold in my difficult task,
And my own good strong arm if it fail me at
length,
From a Source mighty dill' rent from you I'll
seek strength.

apply the same " dicipline" to the people of that
state that has beenfound so effective in Tennessee.
Peaceable citizens are arrested and thrust into
prison for no other offence than that of refusing
to be traitors. 'A. few days since he sent a company
of his soldiers to Mayfield, who seized Mr. Ku

as if he were a common felon. The tame band

Particulars of the Shooting of Major
Lewis
A BODY OF REBEL CAVALRY SCATTERED.
DARNESTOWN, Sept. 24
A tragical occurrence was witnessed near this
village yesterday in the Pennsylvania Forty
sixth, Col. Knipe, on their way to join Gen'L
Bank's column. In the regiment is a company
compceed principally of Irishmen, who have
given the commander much trouble. When
near Muddy Run, two of the men got engaged
in a fight, and one of them, named Linehan,
of company ; a very bad character, was, by
order of Major Arnold C. Lewis, tied to the rear
of a baggage wagon. After proceeding about
a mile it was reported to Major Lewis that
Lanahan was at large with a loaded gun in his
hand. The Major, accompanied. by Assistant
Surgeon W. Charles Rogers, rode towards Lana
ban and ordered him to give up the gun.
Lanahan refused; and while the Major was in
the act of getting off his horse to enforce his
order, Lanahan retreated a few steps, took de
