UARRISBURG, PA
Tuesday Afternoon, October 29, 1861.
Is TOWN.—Capt. E. 11. Routh, of Mauch
Chunk, late Clerk of the House of Rep
resentatives, was in town this morning in
full regimentals. The Captain makes a fine
looking officer, and has evidently "gone in to
win."
I==l
SWORN IN.—Several companies of volunteers
from Bradford and surrounding counties were
sworn into the United States service in Market
Square this morning. We understand that
within the last few days about twelve hundred
volunteers have arrived in this city from north
eastern parts of the State.
PoticE.—Before Justice Braden—Two negro
women named Mary Reynolds and Frances
Cook, were arraigned for drunkenness and dis
orderly conduct. Sent to prison.
Before Alderman Kline.—Wm. Bake, Jno.
M.'Dermont, Thos. Burns, James Simpson, Law
rence Micher and Mary his wife, and the re

THE DUTIES OF A. LOCAL EDITOIt.-A facetious
individual who conducts the "city" column of
a New Haven paper was called as a witness in a
libel suit last week, and is defending his posi
tion gave this account of the duties of a "local
editor :"
"To pick up news, write out news, get to
gether news and publish news about everybody
that lives in town, about everybody that has
ever lived in town, about everybody that ever
will live in town, or is ever expected to be in
town."
THE FIRST Show.—They had three inches of
snow up in Warren last Thursday, whereupon
the editor of the Nail went into extacies, and
through the greasing process ; and though he
didn't individually take to the sled and mit
tens, he had a squint at a pair of young Cowans
that did—and the six year old baby sitting at
the window wishing that she too was a boy, so
she " could ride down hill so slick !" The edi
tor adds :
" Verily, who wouldn't be a jolly hearted, rol
licking boy, with bounding spirits and a steel
shod sled in the - first snow ? Great institution,
that boyhood ! Guess we shall never leave it!"

GOT DRUNK AND LOST HIS HONEY.— A young
man, whose name we forbear publishing out of
respect-to his family, a few days ago collected
a sum of money for his employer in this city,
and shortly afterwards met some friends who
asked him take a "smile " In the goodness of
his heart he "smiled" until the smile on his
face became changed into a snore, and he lay
with his head on a table in a bar-romn until he
was awakened by the landlord, who desired to
shut up shop. The young mau had forgot all
about the money, but the next day his employer
asked him about the bill, and he couldn't re
member that he had collected it until his signa
ture to a receipt was shown him. He says he
is i tit .1 v ignorant of how the money went, but
no loom, i&is kind friends who "smiled" with
hiss co,ild enlighten him. As he had always
provio sly borne a good character his employer
was nu wi li lug to prosecute him, and agreed to
let him old on his promise to refund the money.
I=l
How TO GET A SMOKE UNDER DIPFICULTIES.-
The Experience of an Editor.—A good natured edi
torial friend of ours from the western part of
the State was a passenger in the smoking car of
a train on the Pennsylvania railroad, from Phil
adelphia to this city, a few mornings since.
Previous to leaving his hotel—the Continen
tal "—in the Quaker city, he provided himself
with a high flavored "Havanner" at the bar of
that establishment at the rate of ten shillings a
dozen, which, when he entered the car, he illu
minated, and then looking up a comfortable
seat he "came to anchor," and commenced
puffing away with all the easy assurance of a
New York alderman, or the stoical indifference
of a genuine follower of the Prophet. In
the course of ten or fifteen minutes, while he
was fast verging into a state of obliviousness to
all surrounding objects, he was suddenly aroused
from his reveries by the appearance of a jolly
looking Irishman, who touching his hat, and
producing the stump of a clay pipe black as
a crow's wing, solicited the smallest possible
'bit o' fire."
Our editorial friend at once complied with
his request and handed him his " Havan
ner," which the Irishman took, and, placing
its ignited end into the bowl of his pipe, he
commenced puffing away for dear life. A min
ute or 8) was thus occupied, but the Murphy
somehow or other inhaled no smoke, when sud
denly, as it the fault lay in the sugar, he very
deliberately placed it in his mouth, and by a
few vigorous whiffs, renewed the brightness of
the coal at its end, which he again applied to
the bowl of his pipe, and recommenced puffing
and blowing like a full grown grampus after a
thunder storm. Still no smoke was inhaled;
when, apparently struck with a sudden thought,
he removed the segar, and after lookinginto the
bowl, turned around to our friend, and with a
face ilk( the frontespiece of a comic almanac,
exclaimed :
"Look at thot, now ; be me sowl, zur,
I bela ye there isn't as much tabacca in me pipe
as would filltlZC a Ballyshannon muskata 1" .
And with this he offered to restore the bor
rowed segar ; but, of course, our friend bad no
idea od again taking into his mouth that which
had been glibed over by the whisky-scented
saliva of the Irishman, and therefore informed
him that he might retain it; whereupon Hi
bernia's face became radiant with :grilles, and
making a low bow, accompanied with a strongly
accented " thank yea, zur," he, r•;;ieil to an
adjoining seat, and the next moment he was
busily engaged filling his anti i Yhuden
with our friend's highly flavored " Havr ruler"
purchased at the " Continental" at the rate of
only ten shillings a dozen.
See Professor Wood's advertisement in another
olumn.

Goon TEIEPLARS.-A stated meeting of Wash
ington Lodge I. 0. of Good Templars will be
held at their hall at 74- o'clock this evening,
for the purpose of selecting officers for the ensu
ing term. We are pleased to learn that this
Lodge is in a flourishing condition, and doing
much in a quiet and unostentious way to
wards the promotion of the temperance cause
in our city.
TEMPERANCE IN THE ARMY.—It is said that a
strong temperance feeling has lately evinced it
self among our troops on the Potomac, especial
ly in Gen. Banks' division, in which temperance
societies have been organized, and the soldiers
frequently entertained with temperance speech
es. Gen. Banks himself is said to be an active
member of a Lodge of Good Templars in Massa
chusetts, and warmly encourages the reform
movement.

A NEW . AND DANGEROUS COUNTERFEIT, was ex
tensively shoved in Philadelphia on Friday and
Saturday last. It purports to be a five on the
Bank of Syracuse N. Y., and is thus described:
(It is a new adaptation of a well known coun
terfeit plate, and may be altered to suit any
bank in New York.) It has on its left end at
the top the figure 5 in a circular Medallion, the
coat of-arms of New York below, and the word
"five" below- The vignette is a group of three
female figures, the center one seated within a
large figure 5, and that on the left hand hold
ing a tablet, and the one on the right a sickle,
with train of cars, barrels, &c., in the distance.
On the right end is a medallion head, poorly
executed, with a figure 5 above and the word
"five" below.

SERIOUS ILLNESS OF A HARRISBURG VOLUNTEER.
—We some time since announced the fact that
Mr. Henry Chayne, a native of this city had
been severely wounded while gallantly serving
as a volunteer with one of the Ohio regiments
in an action against the rebels in Western Vir
ginia. Since then Mr. Chayne has been con
fined to the military hospital at Bethany, Va.,
where he experienced every attention that the
necessities of his case required, and his friends
were led to believe that he would ultimately
recover. A letter was received here yesterday
morning, however, from the surgeon, announc
ing that Mr. Chayne had suffered a relapse, and
was now lying in a very critical condition. The
announcement in -the Patriot and Union this
morning that he was dead is altogether prema
ture, no such information having been received
by his relatives in this city. His brother, Au
gustus, left here yesterday for Bethany.
COUNTY CONVENTION or Smoot. DIRECTORS.—
Pursuant to a call of the State Superintendent
of Common Schools, a Convention of the School
Directors of Dauphin county convened at the
Court House in this city at o'clock this af
ternoon for the purpose of taking into consid
eration the propriety of increasing the salary of
the County School Superintendent.
Mr. Wilson, of Lower Swatara presided, and
Rev. C. A. Hay, of this city officiated as Secre
tary.
The President read the call under which the
Cony - cation assew bled.
Mr. Hamilton, Harrisburg, moved to adjourn,
which, after some explanation, was finally
seconded by Dr. Seiler, Harrisburg.
Upon the question the yeas and nays were
ordered by John T. Wilson and A. Boyd Hamil
ton and were yeas, 18—nays, 31.
So the question was determined in the nega
tive.
Mr. James Elder, of Upper Swatara, moved
that the salary of the County Superintendent
beincreased to eight hundred dollars per annum.
After some debate, the motion was withdrawn
for the purpose of enabling a Director to offer a
motion to invite the State Superintendent to
appear before the Convention to explain certain
provisions of the school law.
This motion was debated, and agreed to,
when Dr. Eager, and Mr. Elder were appointed
a committee to inform the State Superinten
dent of the resolves of the the Convention.
After some time the State Superintendent ap
peared, and gave a brief explanation of the
law, when
Mr. Elder resumed his motion to increase the
salary of the County Superintendent to $BOO.
Mr. A. B. Hamilton moved to amend by sub
stituting $551.
The amendment was disagreed to ; and
The motion of Mr. Elder was then agreed to,
by a vote of 33 to 18.
The Convention then adjourned.
WINTER.—We had this morning strong indi
cations that stern winter is fast approaching,
and while the fortunate in this world's goods
are enjoying all the comforts that money will
provide, let us not be unmindful in lending a
helping hand to those where poverty is more
distressing than even winter's cold. Irma &
