DEDICATION OF AN ODD FELLOWS' HALL.-A
hand.mme Odd Fellows' hall was dedicated at
Lykenstown, this county, last Saturday. The
fraternity was largely represented. A brass
band was present, and the ceremonies altogeth
er are described as being of a very interesting
nature. Col. A. J. Herr, of this city, delivered
an address on the occasion.
SERGEANT LOCKARD, Of the first Penna. artil
lery (Campbell's) regiment, who was arrested in
this city some time ago, charged with disobe
dience of orders, and taken lo Washington, was
tried by a court martial, found guilty, and re
duced to the ranks, in which capacity he
has been performing double guard duty for the
last two weeks.

MORE EVIDENCE.—Since the arrest and con
finement of the soldier Risue last Saturday,
charged with having purloined a box of coins
from Mr. Ettla's store in Second street, his
boarding house has been searched and a num
ber of articles found on the premises, which
Mr. Ettla has identified as his property. We
understand that he has confessed to the robbery
of the coins, and the person to whom they were
sold to, but it is hardly possible that they can
all be recovered.
MOVEMENTS OF COTTON.-11 is well known that
a large quantity of cotton has arrived in New
York from the Eastern States recently, for
shipment to Europe. It now appears that
the brokers have been engaged in sending our
fine staplcs abroad, receiving in return, for
manufacture into heavy goods, the India cot
ton from England. The steamship Persia, on
her recent trip brought two hundred and forty
bales of this cotton. The sample is much short
er than American cotton, but the fibres are said
to be quite as fine as ours.
TRIAL OF THE FRIENDSHIP STEAMER. —Au in
teresting trial of the Friendship company's
steam fire engine took place in Market Square
last Saturday afternoon, which was witnessed
by a large concourse of our citizens. The
steamer, on this occasion threw a one and one
eighth stream of water a distance of two hun
dred and nineteen feet, which is considerably
less than its previous performance at the canal.
This it is said is owing to the fact that the fire
plugs are inadequate to supply a sufficient vol
ume of water to meet the suction powers of the
steamer. The trial, however, gave general sat
isfaction, and impressed the spectators very fa
vorably with the superiority of steam over
muscle.
DEATH as ROBERT J. Ross, ESQ.—We deeply
regret to announce the death of R. J. Ross, Esq.,
which took place at his residence in this city
yesterday afternoon. Mr. Ross was well known
in financial circles throughout the State as the
cashier of the Dauphin Deposit Bank, and for a
long time as one of an eminent banking firm in
Philadelphia. His demise was the result of a
paralytic stroke experienced some time last
summer, while attending to his duties in the
bank. Since then he has been confined to his
bed, so powerless as to be almost unable to move
without assistance. Several timcs, indeed, he
seemed to be regaining in strength, and strong
hopes were entertained of his ultimate recovery,
at least so far as to enable him to move about
and attend to his official labors ; but these
proved delusive, and the spark which at these
times were only fanned by affection into a
brighter glow, has now, alas! been quenched
forever. In the death of Mr. Ross, we have
lost one of our most valued citizens—the needy
and destitute a generous friend ; and his family
a devoted husband and fond and indulgent
father.
THE RETORTED SHOOTING OF COL. KNIPE.—Bow
the Story Originated.—The friends of Col. Joseph
F. Knipe will be glad to learn that the telegraphic
dispatch from Washington published in last
Saturday's TELEGRAPH, relative to the murderous
attempt upon his life, turns out to be false.
His wife received a letter and a telegraph dis
patch from him yesterday, in both of
which allusion is made to the rumor as
prevailing even in the camp at Darns
town, but which he pronounces to be an entire
fabrication, and so far from being shot, he
is, on the contrary, in the enjoyment of most
excellent health, and anxious for a brush with
the enemy. The report of his shooting is said
to have originated from the arrest, in Baltimore
last Friday, of a girl in male attire, who repre
sented that she was the son of Col. Knipe, and
that he with herself had been shot by the half
brother of Lanham, who shot Major Lewis.
The girl wore one of her hands in a sling, and
as she was known to have come from Darns
town, her story seems to have impressed the
police authorities with its plausibility, and they
were gulled into its belief. Of course, these
übiquitous gentlemen of the press, yclept re
porters, were on hand and made an item of the
particulars of the examination, which, in due
course of time, found its way to Washington,
and from there, curtailed in dimensions, was
transmitted over the telegraphic wires to the
associated press. In the mean time, the girl
who told the story in Baltimore was remanded
to prison for a further hearing, where her real
sex was accidentally revealed, and she herself
discovered to be a rebel spy, which of course
proved the falsity of her statements.
SUICIDE —A middle aged man named D. Wat
son, formerly a broker of New Castle, Lawrence
county, committed suicide at the Jones' House
in this city, about half past 11 o'clock yesterday
morning. Watson, as evidenced by the hotel
register, arrived here on the 23d of last month
for the purpose, it is said, of obtaining some po
sition in the army ; but not succeeding in this,
he unfortunately permitted a natural failing to
get the better of his good judgment, and sought
to forget his disappointment in the temporary
pleasures of the glass, This course of dissipa
tion resulted last Saturday night in an attack
of delirient tremens, which, however, does not ap
pear to have been very violent, as we did not
learn that any physician was summone I, and
he retired to bed as upon ordinary occasions
Yesterday morning he rose at the usual hour,
and excepting a visible tremor in his nervous
system, arrising from his previous excesses,
there was nothing in his general appearance to
indicate that his mental faculties were in the
least disturbed. To a remark made by him
"that he would like to have a drink of brandy"
an acquaintance replied that he "had better get
a prescription from a Doctor."
He shortly afterwards went to Williams' bar
ber shop, under the hotel, and got shavd, after
which he proceeded to Wyeth's drug store, and
what followed is fully detailed in the subjoined
testimony of Mr. Lewis Wyeth, before the cor
oners inquest, which we publish in full in or
der to correct some misstatements which inad
vertantly crept into the account of the affair,
published in this morning's Txxinnta.m.
LEWIS WYETH, sworn. I keep a drug
store on the corner cf Market square ; a
boy named Jeffries attends the store ; between
11 and 12 o'clock to-day (Sunday) I was out of
the store, and he called to me, and told me a
gentleman was in who wanted some strychnine;
I asked him whether he had an order from a
physician ; he said that he himself was a physi
cian, and that he wanted a drachm of strych
nine ; I told him that I had not that quantity
in the store ; I told him this because I did not
wish to give it to a stranger even if he was a
physician. To show him that I did not have
that quantity, I took down a bottle containing
probably the twelfth part of a drachm and
showed it to him ; while I was getting this bot
tle he stepped behind the counter and picked up
another bottle containing some strychnine and
stood it on the counter. He said, "I'll take
what is here but have no change with me, but
will pay you to-morrow," and then grabbed both
of the bottles containing about 16 grains, and
started out ; I thought his conduct very singu
lar, and called to him ; when I got to the door
he was going into the Jones' House ; I ran
across the street, and met Coverly in the hotel,
and stated the circumstances to him, describing
the man, and told him that be (Watson) had
told me that he was a physician ; Coverly re
plied that he was not a physician ; while I was
talking to Coverly, Watson came down stairs
and started down Second street; I follow
ed him and caught up to him at Kelker's
corner ; I told him that Coverly said that "you
are not a physician, and I must have
the strychnine back ; he said it was up
in his room, No. 33, in the Jones' House ;
told him he must go along with me and get it ;
and I caught him by the arm ; he threw my
arm off and drew back to strike me ; I jumped
aside and went down to the hotel for help,
when I met Mr. M'Calla and Mr. Duncan, and
told them to take care of the man while I went
and searched his room ; I then went and made
a thorough search of his room, but could find
neither strychnine or bottles ; Watson escaped
out of sight of those gentlemen, and we all
started in search of him ; Duncan and I started
in search of him down Mulberry street and up
Chestnut and Second, and found him lying one
the corner of the Square with a crowd around
him ; this was probably as much as twenty
minutes after I left him ; he was lying on the
pavement and was still living when I came up;
I sent for Dr. Reily ; he was removed to the
hotel at the request of Dr. 'Reny ; he died in a
few minutes after his body was removed to the
hotel.
The coroner's jury returned a verdict in ac
cordance with the above facts, and the remains
of the deceased were put in a coffin, and this
morning forwarded to his family at New Castle.
RETURN of HENRY S. Meonaw.—Henry S.
Magraw, formerly State Treasurer, but now a
resident of Lancaster city, who was arrested a
few days after the battle of Bull Run while on
an errand to Manassas to -rescue the body of
Col. Cameron, returned to his home last Friday.
The commission appointed to examine into the
character of the charges of the State prisoners
at Richmond reported favorably in Mr. Ma
graw's case some four or five weeks ago, but
through a misunderstanding the report was not
confirmed by the rebel cabinet until the latter
part of last week. Upon Mr. Magraw's release
he was taken to Norfolk, and from thence to
Fortress Monroe under a flag of truce, and from
thence came directly home. Mr. Harris who
was captured at the same time was also released,
but preferred remaining in Secessia. He is a
Kentuckian and his loyalty has been under sus
picion ever since the breaking out of the war.
Mr. Magraw, though closely confined, has been
kindly treated during his sojourn in Richmond.
The last three or four weeks of his captivity he
was confined in the Court House. His health
does not seem to have suffered much from his
confinement, as he looks as robust and hearty
as he did before leaving home.
COL. HAIO3IIIGHT'S REGIMENT.—Two companies
of Col. Hambright's regiment, Capt. Kendrick's
and Capt. Mcßride's from Lancaster, arrived
here yesterday, en route for the west. The re
mainder of the regiment will follow this
week. The Express says that the scene at the
depot in Lancaster when the companies took
the cars was of the most inspiring character.
The depot, the surrounding streets, the windows
and balconies of the adjoining hotels and houses
were filled with people, who congregated to bid
adieu to the brave fellows on their way to de
fend the glorious stars and stripes. The cars
pushed off amid the most enthusiastic applause
of the assembled throng, while the tears of
mothers, wives and sweethearts attested only
too truly how strong a hold many of them had
upon the affections of those remaining behind.
IN the item referring to the railroad acciden
at Kinzer's Station in last Saturday's TELEGRAPH
several errors occurred. The child killed was
a son of Mr. Edwin Hopton, aged two years,
and not a daughter of Mrs. Hopkins as reported.
We obtained the particulars from the Lancaster
Express, a subsequent issue of which makes the
above correction.
RELIGIOUS ItsvivAr..—A protracted meeting,
attended with very gratifying results, is now
progressing in the Yine street M. E. church.
The meetings will continue every evening this
week.
flturtspluanta nag ereltgrqh, alotthav ltfttntoon, October 7, 1861.
REV. J. C. Grum, of Bainbridge, will preach
this and to-morrow evening, in the west Harris
burg M. E. church, at 7-1 o'clock.
MUD. —An obituary notice in last Saturday's
Philadelphia papers, notices the death in that
city, of George P. Crap. The deceased was well
known in this city as the publisher of the Bor
ough Item.
Crrizsw ArrzsTroN.—A regular stated meet
ing of the Citizen fire company will be held at
their hall this (Monday) evening at 7 o'clock.
Every member is requested to be punctual in
attendance. By order.
THE Commori Comma. held a stated meeting in
their room at the Court Hausa last Saturday
evening.
A petition was received from Mr. Thompson,
keeper of the City Hotel, asking permission of
Council to build a vault under Market street,
near Meadow Lane. Refused on account of
want of power to give any such authority.
The Paxton Hose company petitioned Coun
cil to give them the old Friendship engine.—
The engine not having been given back by the
comp.iny, Council refused to act.
The following additional petitions were re
ceived :
From Chief of Police, asking for an increase
of salary. Referred.
From Mount Vernon Hook and Ladder Com
pany. for the erection of a house. Referred,
with instructions to report.
From Daniel Rhoads, former Clerk of Market,
requesting exoneration for sum of five dollars.
Granted.
From Friendship Fire company, asking for
260 feet 10-inch hose ; also, from Good Will
company, asking for same length of hose. Re
ferred.
From citizens in Walnut street to widen the
pavement on the south side of said street, from
Second street to Jail alley, at the expense of
the owners of said property, was granted.
Alderman Kline sent in a complaint that his
sewer contained water, with a request that a
sewer would be made in Walnut street from
Third street, to Jail alley. Referred.
On motion, Daniel Carrichner was appointed
a special policeman, without salary.
On motion, the market ordinance regulating
the hours of market was so amended that from
the Ist of October to the let of May the market
opens at 6 o'clock and closes at 8 o'clock ; from
the let of May to the let of October, from 4}
o'clock to 8 o'clock—to go into immediate ef
fect.
A communication was read from the Mayor,
returning, with his objections, the ordinance in
reference to the manner of issuing the city
bonds. The - veto of the Mayor was sustained,
and a new ordinance was forthwith adopted.
Foot-walks were directed to be laid at Third
and North and at High and State streets ; also,
a pavement in front of the Good Will engine
house.
The council then adjourned.
Tug FASHIONS. —A fashion writer for a New
York paper says that this fall the " Garibaldi
Jacket" will assert itself a favorite with all
economical ladies, as it has the advantage of
being suitable to wear with skirts whose asso
ciate body has become a thing of the past. It
is made of red, white and blue flannel, and is
gathered full into a band at the neck as well
as at the waist, which will make it a redeeming
feature to many a lean form, while to plump
shoulders it will be de-trap. The neck is finish
ed with a small colar, and the sleeve closed in
to a band or left open with a reversed cuff.
About the waist or across the shoulders, at op
tion of the wearer, belongs a scarf one-eighth
of a yard in width and about two yards long
made of similar material with the jacket.
In bonnets the enlarged front is an accepta
ble change, but the masses of trimming piled
up within and above the arch is stupendous.
Plumes which once waved to the breeze only
upon the outer works and were considered no
company for many hued exotics, now fall gloom
ily over the brow of beauty, were not the
shadow brightened by saucy knots of gay blos
soms—all sorts of colors mixed up—for it seems
the "red, white and blue" has reconciled our
eyes to forbidden contrasts.
Cloaks will in all cases reach far down over
the dress skirt ; some will envelop the figure
entirely. The circular, in various modifica
tions, will prevail. The trimming will be vel
vet, in different widths, heavy box plating of
the same material, and embroidery in silk or
worsted.
Dzcasess rx Cants.--In conversation the other
day with our worthy chief of police, Mr. Rada
baugh, we asked the condition of business in his
department. Dull, very dull, no burglaries or
thefts, he remarked. We suggested that per
haps that kind of professionable men had aban
doned their evil ways on account of the strong
inducements to be honest, held out by 'Unica &
Bowmax in the very low prices at which they
are selling dry goods at the south-east corner of
Front and Market streets. oc7-2t
Notice.—Numerous complaints having been
made to the proper authorities, that a large
number of the stop-cocks extend several inches
above the level of the pavements throughout
the city, which is annoying and dangerous to
pedestrians, especially at night time.
Ten day's mita is therefore hereby given that
Section 15 of an ordinance passed by Council
March 22, 1841, will be rigidly enforced at the
expiration of that time against all persons who
fail to comply with said ordinance.

ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE,
RAl:lineßum}, Sept. 27, 1861.
My opinion is requested by the Governor on
the following questions, viz :
I. What volunteers will be entitled to vote
at the approaching general election in their
camps ?
11. Whether the volunteers so entitled to
vote, can vote for County officers ?
I. lam clearly of the opinion that no vol
unteers will be entitled to vote in their camps,
except such as are in actual military service in
conformity with law, viz : Such as are in ser
vice under the authority of the Governor on
the requisition of the President of the United
States. All the field officers of such regiments
will be commissioned by the Governor, and the
holding of such commissions by the field offi
cers will be a fair test of the right of the regi
ment to vote.
11. The Act of Assembly provides that the
volunteers may exercise the right of suffrage;
of course they have as much right to vote for
County officers es for any other.
W. M. MEREDITH,

tion has been propounded to me, viz : Where
men from several counties are in the same com

each county, of the voters entitled to vote in
