A VRISBURG, PA
Saturday Afternoon, October 26,
l'Asspn Tanouou.--Brig. Gem Tyler, of the
three months service, who had the command
0f the centre of the army, in the first a
upon Ball Run, on the 18th of July, passed
through town yesterday eastward.
Flio3l OCEAN TO Ocmot.—A telegraph dispatch
in oir morning edition, announced the comple
tion of the great overland line of telegraph to
Calitoruia yesterday, and we are informed by
t h e o perator in title city that since then 'hun
dreds of messages have passed over the wires
between New - Volk, Philadelphia and other
p o ints direct to San Francisco, Sacramento and
other principal towns in the golden state. Any
of our citizens having friends in " them dig
oig,s" tan now have an opportunity of confer
ring with them telegraphically.
Dues— Be fore the ilayor.—Wm. Baker, Wm.
Black, Jno, 11' Dermott, John Rees and Wm.
the three latter Soldiers, were arraigned
cliaNed with drunkeuess. Put under marching
•
Orden; for Camp Cameron.
Benj Wilson -a very nervous individual—
begged the Mayor to commit him for five days.
His Honor acceded to his request.
Ja w e sley-- one of the aborigines of the
country -
claimed the hospitalities of the lock
up Ism night, having no means to pay for his
lodgiup elsewhere. The poor fellow was labor
ing under some disease of the eyes, and he sta-
ted that he was on his way to Philadelphia to
consult some oculist. The Mayor very kindly
iur❑ished him with some money and a letter to
Mr Young, the Superintendent of the railroad,
who passed him to Philadelphia.
Sam. %V. Freeburn—the keeper, of Military
Hall -was charged with having committed an
aggravated assault on quite an old man named
David Gardner, by striking him over the lice
with a club "without cause or provocation."
_I warrant was issued for his arrest, and in the
absence of the Mayor a hearing of the case will
take place before Justice Beader at 7 o'clock
this evening.
Befoie Alderman Kline. —An intelligent look
ing German aged about forty years, who gave
hisname as W. C. Maine, was arraigned, charged
with attempting to pass a forged check at the
Middletown Bank fer $57, purporting to have
been signed by Eby et Kunkle, merchants of
this city. Sent to prison to answer.
SOCKB NOR THE SOLDINRS, AND HOW TO SATS
HALF TUN Cost.—The call for knit socks for sol
diers is meeting with a cheerful and energetic
response from all the ladies in this vicinity.—
Notable mothers, sisters, and grandmothers,
habituated to such labors, ply their needles
more industriously than ever, and dainty fin
gers which never before manipulated anything
harsher than Berlin wool, are bravely toiling
over the heavy blue yarn, anxious to contribute
something for the comfort of their brothers in
the distant camp. The need of these labors is
apparent, and they must be continued fora long
time—all through the coming winter at least.
A great many socks must be knit, to furnish
each soldier with two pairs ; and the long
marches and constant exposure will soon create
need of replenishing. Now the leg of a sock
will last three or four times as long as the foot.
lon not a pity that BO much knitting should be
wasted, as would be the case if the socks should
be thrown away when the heels are worn out?
Might there not be some organized plan for col
lecting the cast-off socks which have good legs,
cutting off the feet, washing them nicely, and
issuing them from some of the army working
rooms in the cities and elsewhere, to be re-footed
those who continue the pleasant labor ? Such
a plan would save nearly one-half the expense
and time devoted to the second instalment of
socks for the winter, and the aggregate result
would be an item of economy, by no means
contemptible.
THE Isms Oats.—Heaven bless the little
ones—the joy of our hearts and the light of
Our homes! Well might the Man of Nazareth,
with his warm and appreciative heart, exclaim:
"Suffer little children to come unto me and for
bid them not, fur of such is the kingdom of
God." What better definition could we want
of Heaven ; a place good enough enough for
children, and inhabited by childred and the
childlike ! And what a refutation is this of the
slander of the innate depravity of the human
nature ! The little child is yet uncorrupted by
contact with the world's wickedness, he is fresh
from the hand of the Maker, he is yet true to
his Godigiven nature—ergo, "of such is the
kingdom of Heaven." If the Saviour does not
refute it, is not the little one himself. prattling
innocency, a living refutation'? Bless, then, we
say, the early trudgers in life's pathway! No
home is complete where the patter of little feet
is not heard and the lisping cadence of half_
spoken household words is not breathed. A
little silken-haired fairy, we wot of nieete her
father adown the walk whenever his footsteps,
at nightfall, approach the household hearth.—
That father, homeward bound, we well believe,
is rather proud of his juvenile escort.
suns of two summers have kissed the dimple Thed
cheek of the baby-girl. She plays "horsey" at
knee
her father's expense, clamors at the paternal
, takes liberty with the paternal whiskers,
and occupies an elevated seat at the table.--
She manages a few pet words, but for the most
part can express her "thoughts, affections and
desires" equally well in English, Greek, Ger
man and Hebrew. Of her individual value her
parents are known to have made very liber a l
%titaates, She is believed to combine pretty
much all the virtues to which babies ever at
tain. From a casual acquaintance with the
little one, we are able to endorse the very beat
thing that can be said of her. And it is because
we assume her to be a representative of her
c lass that we are so heartily in favor of minia
-
tasay humanity generally. Blessings, then again,

will serve up in excellent style to-morrow (Sun
day) evening, at the Philadelphia Restaurant,
under Hen's Hotel, together with oysters in
every style, chicken, and all the delicacies of
the season. Call and luxuriate.
BacErna) TRIM UNIFORMS.—The Union In
fantry, Capt. Dorsheimer, attached to Col. Sei
gle's 76th, Pa., regiment, stationed at Camp
Cameron, have received their uniforms, and
make a fine appearance. We believe the com
pany hails from "old mother Cumberland,"
and in point of drill and physique of the men,
it will compare favorable with any other corn
pAny in the service.
Ax limos= ox RIB TRAVNLS.-ik young man,
calling himself "Col. Alexander H. Nelson, of
Lancaster, Pa., 'son of Judge Nelson," has re
cently been in Con. ord, N. H., where, by his
false representations, he managed to receive
many civilities and attentions from the leading
citizens, including the Governor of the State,
and several officers of the United States army.
He claimed to be the Colonel of the 26th Penn
sylvania Regiment, which he commanded in
person at the battle of Bull Run. In return
for some favor, he made a gentleman the offer
of Ist Surgeon of his Regiment, stating that
the gentleman at present holding that post was
going to resign in November. Altogether, the
fellow seems to have played his cards remark
ably well, and created a very favorable impres
sion among the citizens. He left Concord on
the 15th inst., and directly after his departure
a telegraphic despatch was received by the au
thorities of that place, from Mr. Kennedy, Su
perintendent of the New York City Police, ask
ing for a description of the " bogus " Colonel ,
intimating, at the same time, that his presence
would be very desirable in that city. The de
scription was promptly forwarded, together
with a " counterfeit presentment " of the "Col
onel's" physiognomy, a number of which he
, had fortunately left behind him, in the shape
of small photographs, which he had distributed
among his friends as souvenirs. A copy of one
of these has also been sent to the authorities in
this city, and it was from the letter accompany
ing it, that we were enabled to glean the above
particulars. The 'Colonel," we believe, is still
on his travels.
Tax Vormerent AND Rsaindia—Puride Insolence
Promptly Punished.—There are a certain class of
men belonging to the regular service, brain
less, valorless and insignificant braggarts, who
would disgrace any cause, however mean, and
who presume in the position to which favor and
not merit elevated them, that they are superior
to all men, and accountable to no authority.
There is still another class of men belonging to
the regular service, who are distinguished as
much for their skill in arms as they are by their
gentlemanly deportment, forbearing demeanor
to those beneath them in command, and their
willingness ever to acknowledge ability and re
spect individuals. To this latter class the
American army owes its reputation of glory and
renown—to the other and former class, the
service is endebted for its gasconade and ridicu
lous assumptions of pride, pomp and pitiful
meanness. To this class, also, can be traced
that other claim which asserts a superiority for
the regular over the volunteer service, and who
manage occasionally , to create bitter feeling
among men otherwise desirous of being on
courteous terms with each other. Bat these
braggarts occasionally find their match in a
volunteer officer, who with superior force of
character, intellect and education, to write
nothing of courage, never fails to teach the
"regular" that there is a limit even to pomp
and pride, and that among men of real honor
and dignity, the distinctions and grades of the
army are as worthless as the silly assumptions no
ticed in society, and utterly beneath the recogni
tion of brave men whose character is the issue or
whose courage is the object to be established.—
We had an opportunity of seeing this tested the
other evening in one of our popular restaurants.
A company of plain gentlemen and gallant vol
unteer officers were enjoying themselves, when
to their number was added a Major, not a vol
unteer but a regular, veritable, stripped, button
ed and bombastic Major, swelling with his own
conceit and self-estimation. His presence was
the signal for change in the company and the
courtesy of the occasion. True to his characteris
tics, he at once commenced to assail and im
pugn the volunteer soldiery—they were vulgar
cowards, they needed the whip to make them
fight—and when they did move it was for bread
and meat, not glory, as we regulars. Of comae
such speeches—and we give the spirit, not the
language of the Major, because that other spir
it peculiar to some bipeds had rendered him in
capable of intelligible speech invoked the
resentment of a gallant volunteer captain, phy
sically the inferior of the Major, (being no more
than four feet and a hand,) who not only called
Our regular hero and arbiter of the true merits
of men to account, but he administered a re
buke and a lesson which we trust will be of
service to more regulars than this Major. Firet,
he slapped the face of the Major, who in return
threatened to "shoot with fey Derringer." Sec
ond, he defied the "shoot" from the said
Derringer. Third, when the Major failed to
" s hoot" our gallant captain,only four feet and a
hand in his stockings, stretched his arm towards
tthikeMajor'sshoulder, tore off his passanta, dashed
em in his face, spurned his adversary, and
then tur ned courteously to the company of his
friends, who all the while had been quiet con
templators of the Beene which we have thus
briefly described.

CAMP Cuarw.—lt will be gratifying to all
lovers of Christianity to know that the Sabbath
is religiously regarded in Camp Curtin. It was
suggested to Col. Meridith that some improve
ment might be made in the camp in respectjo
the religious observance of the day, when Be
at once made arrangements to have the rations
of the Sabbath given out on Satuday, and that
every kind of work should be dispensed with
that is not absolutely necessary to the comfort
and good order of the camp. The Colonel
could not have done anything more agreeable
to his best friends and to the feelings of his
best men. This is an example worthy of imi
tation, giving us the encouragement to hope
that the careful observance of God's command
ments will secure , us his blessing.
I may relate two or three incidents,
which, occurred on Thursday afternoon when I
was doing my duties, that will give }our read
ers an illustration of the state of things in the
camp.
I gave tracts to sixty or seventy persons—and
at the same time asked each one questions like
this, to bring out their religious feelings: Are
you a obviation? Have you made a profession
of your faith in Jesus Christ? Have you found
the pardon of your sins? I found more than
one half of those I conversed with at that time
I
I are members of the church—three seriously in
quiring about the way of salvation, and two
backsliders who had determined to come back
to their duty and secure their salvation.
At ono time a nnmberof men gathered around
me to solicit tracts when one of them noticed a
tract in my hand on profane swearing. He said
to me, will you please give me that tract. I
vie& to give it to the only man in our company
who swears.
A very staid sober man about forty years old
told me that one half or two thirds of the men
in the company to which he belonged were
christians, or members of the church.
An intelligent young man about thirty years
old told me that when he was spending his last
Sabbath at home he supposed that he was about
ending his religious privileges until he returned..
But when I came to this camp, he added, I was
surprised to see so much religions interest. It
raised me right up, and you don't knew how
happy it makes me. I hail little thought of
seeing such a state of things among soldiers.
When such men go into the field to protect our
rights and our national blessings, who can doubt
the success of our arms.
