IM=CI
WEIL ATTENDF.D.--The meeting of young men
at the Exchange last night to concert measures
for the formation of a volunteer company, to
be composed exclusively of citizens of Harris
burg, was wed attended, and the right kind of
of spirit manifested. A large number of signa
tures were obtained to the roll, and everything
promised a complete success.
POL/CE - Before the Mayon—The city lock-up
last night was as lively as a bag of flees,
Martha Johnson and Bfargaret Denegan—two
ebony colored wenches of bad reputation—were
arraigned for vagrancy. Discharged by pro
mising to mend their ways.
(leo. G. Smith and Wm. Cann—both negroes
—stood charged with stealing a lot of segars
from a restaurant in Market street. Recom
mitted to the lock-up.
John Duwalt, a vagrant was discharged and
directed to leave the city forthwith.
Isaac Carr and John Preston—two volunteers
from Camp Cameron were up for drunkennes.
Recommitted to the lock-up.
Joseph Scott—a negro—plead guilty to drun
kenness. Fined $1 and costs.
Watson--also black—stood charged
with stealing an overcoat from a soldier named
Win. Sullen. The coat was found in Watson's
possession. Committed to prison to answer.
Before Alderman Kline.—Ellen M'Namera—
a genteely dressed feminine—was np for drun
kenness and disorderly conduct generally. She
indignantly denied the "soft impeachment,"
declaring that he was "soberer as.any other fel
low." A bottle half tilled with rifle whisky
was found in her possession, which the Alder
man seized as "contraband," and then made
out her papers for prison.
Gee. Boyer, John M'Carty, John W. Jenkins
and John Andrews also responded to the roll
call of "drunks," and were severally committed
to prison.
Peter F. Idlehuts was charged with threaten
ing Mr, Dean. Gave bail to answer.
MEWING OF THE BOARD OF MEDICAL ElCAMlN
ERS—lntermting Proceedings—"A Medical Board
for the examination of all Surgeons or assistant
Surgeons, now acting as such in any regiment
of volunteers raised in the State of Pennsylva
nia" convened in the chamber of the House of
Representatives, in this city, at 9 o'clock this
morning.
The Board consisted of Dr. WILMKR WORTH
INGTON, of West Chester, Dr. num GAM, of
Easton, and Dr. Wm. COBBON, of Norristown.
Surgeon General HISItY Si= presided
Shortly after the body convened, his Excel
lency Gov. Curtin entered the chamber, and
was conducted to the speaker's platform, when
he was introduced to the assemblage by Gen.
Smith in the following remarks :
Gov. emrrix—ln obedience to your orders, I
have convened a State Board of Surgeons, whom
I have now the pleasure of introducing to you
as distinguished members of the medical profes
sion—as citizens deeply interested in the wel
fare of Pennsylvania,—and as the warm advo
cates of the cause of the Union now threatened
by the traitors assembled around Washington.
[Gen. Smith here introduced the members of
the Board personally to the Governor.] I also
introduce to you the large body of candidates,
who have so energetically responded to the in
timation that our brethren in arms for the
maintenance of the Government, were likely to
require their professional services. Like the
combatants in the Isthmean games, these gen
tlemen have been engaged in a generous rivalry,
and hope to gain at the hands of your Excel
lency, that awardment that will give increased
honor to the laurels hereafter to be won on the
battle-field.
Gov. Curtin followed, and in greeting the
assembly remarked, that he was glad to see a
gethering so large in number and so respect
able in ability convened in response to the call
of the Surgeon General. The poste for which
they were about to be examined were of the
highest importance, and in responsibility ranked
with any in the service. The army surgeon
held in his hands the health of the soldier, and
when wounded and bleeding, it becomes his
duty to save hia life, if possible. Certainly such
a duty requires the highest skill, and therefore
the state has wisely provided for the selection to
be made from among the ablest of the medical
profession, and for this purpose this examination
was instituted. Gov. Curtin thanked the phy.
sicians present for their promptness in respond
ing to the call of duty and humanity, and th en
commended them to the imparthdity of the
medical commission before whom they were to
be examined.
There were one hundred and sixty-five can
didates present for examination, who, as they
were arraigned around the circular desks, busily
engaged writing out the answers to the printed
questions before them, presented a scene of
lively interest, and an array of talent seldom,
if ever, equaled in any one body of men.
The examinations this morning were confined
altogether to the proficiency of the candidates
in the general practice of medicine and mania
gie dicat while the afternoon session was devoted
a o irogyell to ezaw ita ti ns
surgery.
A Hananunrao Orricsa Darrsomsnas
Hnr
ssis.—The many personal friends and acquain
tances of Lieut. Alexander N. Shippley, for
merly of this city, will be gratified to learn that
he has recently distinguished himself against
the rebels in a manner that reflects the highest
credit upon his military skill and personal
bravery. Lieut. Shippley, belongs to the regu
lar United States Army, and is stationed with
his command at Fort Pickens near Pensacola,
Florida. Our readers are aware that this latter
place, with the navy yard and its surroundings,
are held by a considerable force of the rebels un
der the command of Gen. Bragg. The comman
dant at Fort Pickens, Col. Brown, has long been
endeavoring to force the rebels into a fight, but
it seems that their leader won't "nibble"
and lies as close behind his entrenchments
as a cat behind a warm stove in winter.
Recently, by way of provoking old "Little
more grape" into action, Lieut. Shippley
obtained leave to make as expedition against
the navy yard. He left the Fort, a few
minutes after tatto (9 o'clock P. M.) in a boat
with eleven picked men, rowing noiselessly for
the dry-dock. The boat reached the dock
without being challenged, was made fast, when
the men sprang up prepared to encounter and
overcome the sentries, who had often been seen
stationed upon it at night ; none were found,
however, and they proceeded to accomplish
their work. Combustible material of various
kinds had been prepared and brought along,
together with three large columbiad shells.—
These were placed in the boilers. The combus
tibles properly arranged, word was given for
the men to go aboard the boat, Lieut. Shipley
remaining to apply the match, which done, he
quickly followed in their wake. Scarcely had
a distance of twenty yards from the doomed
structure been gained by the gallant little band,
when the flames burst forth, followed almost
immediately by the explosion of the shells,
which filled the air with fragments, that fell in
a perfect shower around the retreating boat, but
fortunately injuring none of its crew. As the
first streak of flame mounted upwards the "long
roll sounded at the Navy Yard, the soldiers
stationed there turned out in haste, the engi -
veers ran to their guns, and everything was wild
confusion ; but not a shot was fired ; the boat
reached the shore in safety ; the crew disem
barked, and proceeded to the Fort to receive
the congratulations of their comrades. Mean
while the whole sky was illumined by the tall
spires of flame which shot upward from the
burning dock. All night long the fierce ele
ment sped on its work of destruction, and when
morning dawned, a shapeless mass of ruins
floating upon the water was all that remained
of the dry dock, which cost the Government
upwards of a million and a half of dollars, but
which the "mad demon of rebellion" had
wrested from its grasp.
Lieut. Shippley served with credit in the Mex
ican war, and subsequently enlisted in the
United States army, where by his efficiency and
meritorious conduct generally, he attracted the
attention of his superiors, which led to his pro
motion to a Second Lieutenancy. About a year
ago he was ordered to join his company in a
campaign against the Indians in Texas, and
was performing this duty when secessionism
developed itself, and the traitor Twiggs sought
to enveigle the United forces into its unholy
grasp. Lieut. Shippley, however, entertained
too much love and affection for the " stripes
and stars" to be caught In the trap, and with
his command, contrived to leave the State
without being restrained from future service by
subscribing to a parole. He landed at New York,
and was immediately directed to report himself
at Fort Pickins, where he is now doing noble
service in behalf of his country as the gallant
achievement described above fully testifies.
I=l
Tas PSNNSTLVANIL RtSWIOAD.—The Pennsyl
vania Railroad Companyhave recently advanced
the rate of freight on flour from Cincinnati to
Philadelphia, from $1 to $1 10 per bbl., and
wheat from 47c. to 65c. per 100 lbs. This
movement, it is alleged, has given much dissat
isfaction to the trade, and the subject was con
sidered at a meeting of the members of the Corn
Exchange Association, held last Monday. Mr.
E. G. James, of the firm of T. Richardson &
Co., was called to the chair, who stated that
this advance in the rates caused an unjust dis
crimination against Philadelphia. A commit
tee of six was appointed to investigate the
matter.
Coix Tom.—Some malicious scoundrel, re
cently, taking advantage of the temporary ab
sence of Mr. Etla from his variety store in North
Second street, succeeding in purloining from
that establishment a small box filled with rare
silver coins of all denominations and nationali
ties, being the result of Mr. Etla's numismatic
collection for a period of ten or fifteen years,
and highly valued by him for its perfection.
The instrinsic value of the coins is estimated at
$5O, but they would bring a much larger sum if
disposed of to the regular coin collectors.
FATAL RAILROAD Aooi T. —The remains of
a private, whose name we could not learn, be
longing to Col. Christ'sregiment of Penn'a. vol
unteers, which left here yesterday morning for
Washington, were brought to this city last
night. It appears that the deceased attempted
to get on the train while it was in motion at
some station this side of Baltimore, when his
foot slipped, and he fell under the wheels, which
passed over his body killing him instantly.

Wow n THE XIX CENTEMY.—Many women
who are to-day moving quietly and gracefully
through the light and shadow of fireside life,
are to ke known hereafter. Their names will
be gracious words to the nineteenth century,
which among other inventions and discoveries,
has discovered women ! It was not enough that
she was placed in the garden of Eden for us.—
We were blind for many thousand years.—
When the world was young, we made her fetch
our wood, cook our food, and play the menial.
In our days of chivalry we taught her to be a
pretty Amazon, to dress our wounds, to bind
our scarf around our helmet, to receive a fan
tastic and insincere adoration. Then, as if
there were never to be an end to our nonsense,
we fancied that she was an Arcadian shepherd
ess, or a lovely wood-nymph, with confused
ideas of virtue. Then did she tap us on the
cheek with her fan, and, smirk and smile, and
paint and powder, and wear her hair four stories
high, that was the courtly age. But by and by
she wearied of these follies. We began to
treat her with more sense ; then little by little
she began to assert herself, and the better we
treated her the more she asserted, until at last
we cried out like Frankenstein : ' , What mons
ter is this we have created!" But it was not
a monster—it was only a woman ! Great in her
weakness, noble in her charity, beautiful in her
patience. We found her out ! She was never
so recognized as now ; we have discovered that
she has brain as well as heart ; that she can
write verses like Mrs. Browning, paint pictures
like Rosa Bonheur, and still be all that is gen
tle and lovable, like Florence Nightingale, or
our own benevolent Miss Dix.
WOOLEN Socks sox Am - v.—The following
directions, which have been furnished by a lady
of much experience, may prove useful to those
who will engage in knitting woolen socks for
the army. The yarn should be bluish gray,
I No. 22, and the needles, No. 14 or No. 16.
Set up twenty-seven stitches on each needle ;
knit two plain and two seam rows alternately,
until the ribbing is three inches long ; then
knit plain seven inches for the leg, remember
ing to seam one stitch at the end of one needle.
To form the heel, put twenty stitches on two
of the needles, and forty-one on the other—the
seam stitch being in the middle. Snit the first
row plain, the next row seam, and so alternate
ly until the heel is three inches long ; then
narrow on the plain row each side of the seam
stitch for five plain rows, which will leave
thirty-one stiches. To close the heel, knit the
last seam row to the middle of the needle, knit
the seam stitch plain, then fold the two needles
together, and with another needle take off the
seam stitch. Then knit a stitch from both
needles at once, and bind the seam stitch over
it. Continue kitting in this manner until but
one one is left and the heel closed. Take up as
many stitches as there are rows around the
heel ; knit one round plain ; then widen every
fifth stitch on the heel needles. Narrow once
on every round at each side of the foot until
there are twenty-seven stitches on each needle ;
knit plain six inches, narrow at the beginning
and end of each needle on every third round,
till you have seventeen stitches on each ; then
narrow every second round till yon have seven
—then every round until the foot is closed.—
One pound of yarn costing from seventy
five cents to one dollar, will furnish four
pairs of socks.
