The berries are red, and of an entire new species, bearing the second time this season. They are very finely flavored and in every respect Equal to those raised in the spring. Ile has a lot of plants of this species for sale. ROWDVISAI IN Tile Firm WARD —About mid night last Saturday a party of rowdies visited a house in the Fit th ward and endeavored to gain admittance. Not succeeding, however, they became enraged, and on the appearance of one of the male inmates at a window of the estab lishment a pistol shot was fired, the ball from which, just grazed Ids head, causing a severe bleeding. The rowdie,: then decamped. THAT RUMOR.—We are assured by a number of reliable officers and privates stationed at Camp Cameron that the report which has been current on our streets for several days, n re ference to the ill treatment of a man at that camp by order of Capt. Seymore, an allu sion to which was made in Tuesday evening's TELEGRAPH, is without the least shadow of truth. Nothing of the kind occurred at that camp. CUMBERLAND VALLEY It.—At the election for officers of the Cumberland Valley Railroad Company, held at the office of the Company in Carlisle on Monday, October 7th, the following was the result—most of the old officers being continued •: President—Hon Fred. Watts. Secretary and Treasurer Edward M. Biddle. Superintendent— 0. N. Lull. Managers—Henry J. Biddle, Josiah Bacon, W. M. Henderson, Thomas B. Kennedy, Dan iel Tyler, James McCormick, Thomas A. Scott, Thomas A. Biddle, John Hulme, D niel 0. Gehr, Wistar Monis and Edward C. Knight. =SEM A NEW MOVEMENT IN THE Auer.—A gentle man of this city has shown us two very inter esting letters from men in the army. They narrate the fact that our Christian young men iu the army are in some instances moving in the means of securing themselves against the vices and corruption of the camp.— They are doing this by forming Young Men's Christian Associations. They do this because they have no church organization or church ordinances, and this comes the near est to a church that they can have. One of these tatters, written by a captaih, states that already 160 men of the regiment have enrolled their names as members, and the work is just begun. =I EDUCATIONAL CONVENTION.- A convention of persons officially connected with the various ed ucational institutions of the State, has been cal led by the State Superintendent of Common Schools, at Harrisburg, to commence on Tues day, November 26, 1861, at 9 o'clock, A. M., and to continue four days. The County Super intendents tt representing the Common Schools, the Principals of the State Normal Schools and of other institutions for the training of Teach ers, the Principals of High Common Schools and of the prominent Academies and Female Seminaries, and the Presidents and other repre sentatives of the Colleges in the State, are cx- P cted to attend.. Other prominent and active fiiends of education, not officially connected with any of the above classes of institutions, have also been invited. The object is to pro mote harmony of feeling and unity of purpose amongst the educationists of every class and department of operation in the State ; and so far as expedient and possible, to combine the whole into one united system, sustained by a common effort. THE LOCAL PREACHERS ASSOCIATION.—The Local Preachers' Association convened at the Central Church, New York; at 81, o'clock on Monday morning. Presidentßreakley occupied the chair. After suitable religious services, the regular order of business was taken up, and the committee on finances was appointed. Ad dresses were then delivered by Bishop James, Dr. Stevens, Dr. Holdidge, of the American Bible Society, Dr. Roberts, of Baltimore, and others. Reports were presented by the Com mittee on the Methodist Historical Society, and the Committee on finding the grave of Straw bridge and Williams—founders of Methodism in New Jersey—and erecting suitable monu ments to their memory. The remaining time of the meeting was occupied in considering re ports and resolutions. At 3 p. m. a sermon' was preached in the same place by the Rev. Isaac P. Cook, of Balti more, who choose his text at II Corinthians, vi, Ist. The object of the sermon was to .how who were God's workmen, and what their coun sel should be, the argument being strictly con fined to the general subject, without special reference to the work in the army. About 100 local preachers, with delegates from New York, New York East, New Jersey, Newark Proper, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Troy, Baltimore, East Baltimore, and other places, numbering ten in all, and a large congregation of lay members were in attendance. At 7 o'clock in the even ing, the meeting assembled in the Green street Church, and transacted the closing business of the session. This conpisted of choosing the place of meeting for 1862, selecting the preacher of the Annual Sermon. and appointing the Com mittee necessary for the transaction of business throughout the war. After this addresses were delivered by numerous delegates, and the in teresting annual exercises closed at a late hour with the relation, of religious experience by in dividuals present. See Professor Wood's advertisement in another olumn. A Bonus COLONEL EXPLODED. —A man of rather fine physique, dressed in the uniform of a United States officer, bss been distributing family souvenirs, and creating somewhat of a sensation in Cincinnati. He left Louisville about the 8 h inst., simultaneously with the following notice in the Louisville Journal : "Col. George Washington, the only living relative of Gen. George Washington, is now at the Louisville Hotel, and is to leave in the mail boat to-day for Cincinnati." Toe Cincinnati papers are jovial about the "distingue looking personage." On the 9th inst.. he reviewed Col. Taylor's regiment, and succeeded in obtaining a commission to pur chase his entertainer a very fine sword for $25, the model of his own elegant weapon ; also a pair of boots do., $25, and in borrowing a very fine navy pistol and a horse—with none of which he returned until unfortunately lie found him self tangled in the meshes of certain officious policemen. He is locked up. There are seve ral individuals in this city who occasionally "splurge" in officer's uniform, under false pre tences, having no command, and so chicken hearted that the meremention of "fight" would snake them tremble all over like expiring kittens. PATRIOTIC RESOLUTIONS. —The following reso lutions were introduced into the Synod of Phi ladelphia (0. S.), which has just ended its ses sions at Easton, by Rev. D. V. M'Lean, D. D., who accompanied them with a brief and patrio tic address. The resolutions were adopted un animously, the members of Synod in taken their vote expressing their earnestness by rising to their feet. In view of the continuance of the deplorable civil war, brought upon our country by the in fatuation and wickedness of a portion of our fellow citizens, with the avowed determination to destroy this government, which is the noblest monument of statesmanship and patriotism the world has ever seen, or is ever like to see, the Synod of Philadelphia feel constrained as they stand in their lot, to place on their records and publish the following resolutions, viz : Resolved, That we cordially concur in the sen timents of the resolutions adopted by the late General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, on the state of the country. Resolved, That we express our abiding and un wavering attachment to the Constitution and Government of our country as bequeathed to us by our fathers, and our determination to labor and pray for the speedy, effectual and uncondi tional suppression of the present most ground less, cruel and wicked rebellion in the history of any people ; and for the integrity and perpe tuity of the Union of the States, under which, as a nation and a church, we have so greatly prospered. I=l RECRUITING FOR THE REGULAR ARMY. —We learn that Colonel Carrington's regiment, the 18th U. S Infantry, is now far in advance in point of numbers of any of the new regiments authorized by the late act of Congress for the enlargement of the Regular Army, numbering already upwards of 1,200 men, and will, no doubt, be the first completed and in active ser vice. The plan of organization is one without 'precedent in the United States, having been adopted from the French military school. The regiment is to consist of three battalions of some 800 men each, and forming a regiment of 2,452 men, commanded by one Colonel, one Lieutenant Colonel, and three Majors—one to each battalion ; thus having all the advantages, power and efficiency of a brigade, with a less number of field officers. Col. Carrington, Gov ernor Dennison's law partner, of Ohio, has a West Point education ; has been Adjutant Gen eral of the State of Ohio for the past four years; organized and put into service all the three months troops of that State with remarkable celerity, and has been a student of military tactics all his life. Ile is also a graduate of Yale College, a ripe schollar and prominent lawyer, which, in addition to his high military qualifications, renders him entirely competent to command the corps to which he has been assigned. The Ohio State Journal, of a recent date, pays the following tribute to his moral worth : "Col. Carrington is himself tin elder in the Presbyterian Church, and the course he has taken to enforce the rules and articles of war, respecting profanity, indicate his resolution, that the camp shall be a school where the reli gious character will not suffer taint, but they will, like Havelock's noble band, be better sol diers for reverencing the God of battles, who holds the issues of war as well as peace." Capt. J. M. Eyster holds a commission in this regiment, and is now actively engaged recruit ing for it at the Exchange, in this city. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE RAILROAD. —A man was forcibly put out of the cars by the conduc tor of the mail train, on Friday afternoon last, this side of Patterson, while in an almost help less state of intoxication—he being without the means of paying his fare. He was seen to take his seat on the side of the railroad, where he remained until the fast train came up, when he was struck by the locomotive and precipitated down the bank. The train stopped and taking him up, took him to the Lewistown station, Doctor Worral attended him, but all in vain. He lingered in an insensible state until Saturday morning, when he expired. He could not be identified by any person who saw him ; he appeared to be about forty-five years of age, light complexion, nearly six feet in height, had a bundle of clothes with him containing a shirt, pants, and a summer coat ; also, a pair of extra boots. He wore the ap pearance of a working man, a forgeman or a miner. He was taken in charge by Joseph Brower, Steward of the Poor House, and de cently interred on Sunday in the Poor House burying ground. Considerable censure is at tached to the conductor for putting off this man in a lonely situation while intoxicated, and we are told a passenger on the train re marked at the time, either to the conductor or in his hearing, that it ought not to be done as he would be killed by the next train. We are aware that there is much imposition practiced in this way, but still there are bounds within which the company ought to restrict conductors in putting off any person, and especially those under the influence of the demon alcohol. The road below Lewiston to the vicinity of Patter son, a distance of some eight • miles, is almost unfrequented except by a few railroad hands— the trains run at a high speed—and the double track, cut through rocks and thickets at the foot of the mountain, with the river below, leaves but little space for a sober, much less a drunken man, to make his way towards a habi tation or shelter of any kind. latunopluania Malin eel egr ap h, 014urribap Afternoon, October 24, 186 L Tna Nur CROP. —Shellbarks and chestnuts were never more abundant in this section of the country than at the present time. The country stores in the "shellbat k region" are fairly groan ing under the weight of nuts stored aw=y on the story next to the roof. At some stores bushels upon bushels of them have been re ceived. The price paid for . sbellbarks has been from 80 cents to $1 25 a bushel, and chestnuts from 5 cents to 8 cents a quart. The ruling price up country last week, for shellbarks, was 80 cents, and chestnuts $1 50 Some store keepers in this city bought them at equally low rates, though they have been retailing chestnuts at 12 to 18 cents a quart. REMEMBER THE S OLDIER.- Mothers, wives, sis ters and daughters of Dauphin county, are you responding as you ought to the appeal which has been mode to you, for a share of surplus household bounties for the comfort and health of the gallant men in arms upon the Potomac, and have now in your midst, who will soon march in defence of our national honor, and the stars and stripes. '1 here is scarcely a house hold in our country, from the palace of the millionaire to the humble cabin of the laborer, that cannot spare something from its store, without impoverishment or inconvenience.— One warm blanket, or a good pair of woolen socks, might save the life of as brave a fellow as ever shouldered a musket. The resources of the Government will be taxed to the utmost ; let there be no withholding of private bounty which will add to the health and comfort of the men who have taken their lives in their hands, and gone from homes of plenty to endure the fatigues, hardships and perils of a warf ire waged for us and for constitutional liberty. In obedi ence to the call of our National and State au thorities, hundreds of your husbands; brothers and sons have been summoned from the com forts of home, to the exposure and rough expe rience of the camp. They have obeyed the call of your National and State authorities with alacrity, as affecting as it is noble. It can scarcely be expected that the sacrifices made by them will not be severely felt, if that Provi dence which has so signally favored them in the past should continne to shield them in the hour of battle. We are sure that every arrangement which ordinary prudence can suggest will be made by the Government for their comfort and welfare. Yet, we are equally sure a great deal should be done, and can be done by the women of our county to promote the comfort of our soldiers. We make no appeal to you to come up earnestly and unitedly to this good work.— Such an appeal would be unnecessary. Many noble hearts are now engaged in the cause. It has the approval of the President, the sanction of the Governor, and the eyes of the whole Christian world are upon you, and heaven's choicest bl, ssings will crown your efforts.
