HARRISBURG, PA
Wednesday Afternoon, October 30, 1861
HALLOWEEN.- To-morrow night is Halloween,
an occasion generally commemorated by "rude,
uncultivated boys" by shelling windows with
corn, thumping doors with cabbage stocks, and
having a high old time generally, to the great
prejudice of the peace and quiet of the city.
SOLDIERS' FAMILIES, ATTENTION. —The pay
ments made heretofore at the Exchange will in
future be made at the Sheriff's office, in the
Court House (first floor,) on Friday evening of
each week, from half past five until half past
six. Persons interested will please notice the
change and be punctual.
PROMOTED. Second Lieutenant Thomas A.
Martin, of Rich Valley, Allegheny county, Pa.,
has been promoted to a First Lieutenancy in
the Fourth Infantry, U. S. A. Mr. Martin was
a page of the House of Representatives of this
State during the session of 1860, and was last
winter employed in the pasting and folding de
parsment of the same branch of the legisla
ture.
---,••-
A SUBSTITUTE FOR COFFEE.—An exchange gives
the following receipe for chestnut cobree : After
the chesnuts are thoroughly dried in an oven,
the shells are removed, and the kernels roasted
or "browned" like coffee. Then take equal
quantites (in measurement) of real coffee and
the chesnuts (some prefer more chestnuts than
coffee,) grind, mix together', and prepare in the
usual way.
WHILE PASSING ALONG TR& STREET the other
evening we overheard a gentleman (?) in regi
mentals declare that he would "sooner stab an
abolitionist or a damn black Republican, than
he would shoot a secessionist." He was of
course unknown to us, but who will not be in
spired with solicitude for a cause such as our
bleeding country's, when like traitors steal in
to our army ? Of course the man who thus ex
essed himself was a loyal Democrat.
I==l
['HE Mu ne COMPANIES.—Many of our ex
c.]: Anges noticing our allusion to the fact that a
Imposition has been made to organize a militia
.2engpany in each of the six wards of our city,
speak very favorable of the project and strongly
urge a similar movement in their own locali
ties. The idea is certainly a good one and
should be acted upon in every city and town in
the loyal States. They know the value of these
organizations down in "Dixie," and have long
since profited by them to make every man a
soldier. We repeat hurry up the militia.
DR. GEO. S. KEMBLM, a native of this city,
whose name appears in the list of surgeons re
cently appointed by the Governor of this State,
had been previously examined by a U. S. Medi
cal Commission at Washington, and appoint
ed by the President a brigade surgeon in the regu
lar service. Having accepted this commission, it
of course precludes him from serving under that
issued from the State authorities, and the va
cancy thus created will have to be filled by a
new appointment. Dr. Bemble accompanies
the great southern expedition.
I=l
"PAVING Tll5 WAY."—We are pleased to no
tice the fact that a number of property holders
are "paving the way" for the winter by relay
ing their sidewalks. The good example thus
set should be generally followed, as broken
pavements become a public nuisance when in
clement weather sets in. Those who have not
yet begun this good work should lose no time
in doing so. Now is the time also to see that
cellars, hydrants, etc., are properly protected
against the encroachments of Jack Frost. A
little forethought in this direction now may
save a great deal of trouble and expense in the
dead of winter.
ACKNOWIEMEMENT.—The Quartermaster Gen
eral of Pennsylvania acknowledges the follow
ing donations :
From Lewistown—F. J. Hoffman, 4 grey
blankets.
From Womelsdorf—John L. Fisher, 1 pair of
blankets ; Mrs. Shurtz, 1 quilt ; Isaac Groff, 1
blanket and 2 pair of stockings.
From blifaintown—Miss M. Sellers, 1 pair of
woolen socks ; Mrs. H. Oswald, 1 pair ; Mrs.
Mary Snyder, 1 pair ; Mrs. Irvin, 1 pair ; Miss
Hart, 1 pair ; Mrs. Wetmore, 1 pair ; Miss Mar
garet Sellers, Mrs. Parker, Mrs. Schoyer, Miss
Annie Sellers, Mrs. Leight Miss Sarah Sellers,
Mrs. Belford, Mrs. Pennebaker, Mrs. Stein and
Miss Martha Bell, each one pair stockings ; 3
pairs, unknown. R. C. HALE,
Oct. SO, 1861. Q. M. G.
STIMITING.—SoIdiers, just now, are a privil
eged class ; and so they should be. But all
good soldiers will admit that their profession is
frequently disgraced by men in uniforms, who
think that the wearing of a pair of blue pants
and a blouse is all that is necessary to allow
them every kind of unwarranted license. Such
will strut within an inch of their lives, and
when they happen to get to a place where they
are checked, will resort to violence and abuse.
All this is wrong. The moment a man puts on
the Union uniform he should consider that he
has dedicated his life to a holy cause, and his
behavior should square with the feelings pro•
duced by a proper estimate of the importance
placed upon him by his fellow citizens, wife,
children and friends at home.
-. 4, p----
NEW Parricoar.—A novelty in petticoats has
recently been adopted among fashionables.
For all but dress, the white petticoat has been
discarded for one of alapaca ; and these have a
great advantage over the linen or cotton ones,
inasmuch as they are lighter and do not lose
their stiffness. Of course, if the dress be grena
dine, barege or other clear texture, the petticoat
must be of the same color. They are made
very full and gored, and have a broad black
ribbon or velvet above the hem ; sometimes
there is a trimming of gathered ribbon put on
in vandykes. The dresses are invariably caught
up at the side to show this under petticoat.
Where it is-not necessary to match the tint of
the dress, a stone color is the best shade for
wear.
SHOEMAKERS WARTED.—Jonathan Cornman,
of Carlisle, advertises in this evening's TELE
GRAPH for three hundred shoemakers to work
on cavalry boots. Sons of St. Crispin out of
employment would do well to peg around that
way.
NEW Gux BOAT.—We understand. that Mr.
McCauslin, formerly civil engineer on the
Pennsylvania Railroad, has invented an iron
clad gun boat, which is said by competent au
thority to be far ahead, in every respect of any
thing yet discovered in that line. We learn
that drawings aLd specifications thereof have
been submitted to the Government for examin
ation, and there can be but little doubt of its
adoption, if"half that competent and disinter
ested parties say as to its merits be true.
SOOLDING. —lf laughter begets fat, it is no
less true that scolding is the parent of meager
ness. Who ever saw a fat termigant ? The
virago is scraggy—scragginess is the badge of
all her tribe. It would seem that the attrition
of a fierce exacting temper gives sharpness to
the human frame as inevitably as a gritty
grindstone puts:a wiry edge on a broad axe.
Artists understand this fact, and guide their
pencils accordingly. They invariably represent
ladies supposed to be given to "the rampage"
as remarkably high in bone. Shrews are thus
depicted in comic valentines, and all the illus
trators of "Curtain Lectures" have presented
the "rib" of Mr. Caudle without a particle of
fat. Lavater, referring to female firebrands,
says flatly to their faces that their noses are
sharp. We have a dim idea that he mentions
some exceptional cases of ladies with snub
noses who are given to snubbing their hus
bands ; but these form a mild variety, and only .
a small proportion of the genus 'scold.
0. EDWARDS, Sec'y
Ntrre To CRACK !—This season is remarkable
for the prolific yield of chestnuts, hickory and
walnuts. We have never known them to be so
abundant in many years. The squirrels have
in prospect a bountiful supply for winter and
these provident little denizens of the woods are
now as busy as bees in laying in a good winter
store. Our juveniles are also as busy "as mil
ers" in garnering up a stock for the long winter
evenings.. The scarcity of apples, which are
almost a total failure in our section, renders it
the more important to provide a plentiful sup
ply of nuts, the best substitute at hand, with
which to while away the tedium of a dreary
winter's evening. Chestnuts do not enter large
ly into the accumulations of the attic—being
less abundant and difficult to gather, and con
sequently too costly for the moderately filled
purse. The more humble, but not less delicious,
walnut, butternut and hickorynut, are the le
gitimate reprisals of the juvenile in his forays
a-field and in the wood. Thanks to bountiful
nature, her gifts in these highly valued wild
fruits are without stint or measure this fall.
FATAL RAILROAD AO OIDRNT —Two Men Killed
and Several Wounded—An accident occurred
yesterday afternoon on the Northern Central
Railway, which resulted in the death of two
passengers, and the serious wounding of several
others. It appears that the express train for
Baltimore was detained at this city to enable
some other trains to connect, and when it start
ed it ran at full speed. When it had got a short
distance below Howard's tunnel, about eight
miles south of York, the engineer discovered a
cow on the track, but before he could reverse
the engine or give the warning to put down
the brakes, the train ran on the animal, and
was thrown from the track. The engine, bag—
gage car and two passenger cars were broken,
the last named slightly, and the others more
seriously. An examination of the wreck dis
covered that two of the passengers were killed
and several others wounded. One of the killed
was Hr. Valentine, of Baltimore, and the other
an unknown man about 35 years of age, with
the innitials E. V. on his watch. He also had
in his possession a Perham's excursion ticket
fiorn New York to Baltimore and back. He was
fair complexioned, with blue eyes, light hair,
and mustache and goatee of the same color,
and was dressed in cassimere, with satin vest.
We have not been able to ascertain the names
of the wounded.
The fact of the accident was immediately
telegraphed to James C. Clark, Esq., superin
tendent of the road, who ordered the wounded
to be taken back to York, where they could re
ceive proper attention. The train did not reach
Baltimore until some time this morning.
Wasox FLAGG, in a recent number of the At
lantic Monthly, published a readable article on
dress, in which he stated, as a fact well known
to scientific men, but not generally believed,
that frost is not the cause of the brilliant col
ors of our autumnal forests. The beautiful
tints are caused by other agencies the "white
frost" proving highly prejudicial to them, and
if it makes an early appearance it seldom does
more than to injure the capacity of the leaves
to receive a fine tint when they become mature.
The coloration of the leaves is not to be ac
counted for in any particular way, any more
than the white hair that was given to Marie
Antoinette in one night. But that Jack Frost
is the painter who has been dealing in the gold
and crimson effects this season are entirely dis
proved, for in most parts of the West that
blighting visitor has not made his appearance
since last spring. An artist who revels in more
vivid hues is responsible for the hundred shades
of yellow, and red, and green, and purple, that
are now presenting with a pomp unusual the
visible song of a summer that is dead.
Those who make a practice of collecting and
preserving the best leaves every fall, have had
no difficulty in getting as many perfect speci
mens as they desire, this season. The colors
are also brighter. The forests of maple and
oak seem to be conscious that this is a year of
battles, and defiantly they lift up their banners
of red and bronze ; from every river and lake
flash out thejeafy banners of anrarmy of firey
shrubs and vines ; the red October goes down
behind a battery of a hundred guns ; and over
head "clouds grander than the' forests, mightier
than the rivers, gentler than the zephyrs,
changed from gloom to glory, from leaden unto
gold, as the passing of a soul." This beauti
ful pageant, with all its warmth of glow and
color, and its happy period of bright repose, is
hastening to atrend.

THE RECONNOISANCE OF THE SUSQUEHANNA .-
A portion of the Commission selected by the
Committee on Defense and Safety of Philadel
phia to make a topographical survey of the Sus
quehanna river, have returned• to that city.
The Engineer, after reaching the mouth of the
Susquehanna, made a survey across the country
to Delaware city. A portion of the party are
surveying the interior along the route, so that
a map may be made of all the fording places
along the Susquehanna and the approaches
thereto. In case an army should ever attempt
to invade Pennsylvania from the south, the ob
nervations made will become of great value, as
the reconnoisance has been thorough and com
plete in every particular.
ANOTHER GREAT WELL. —Another extraordi
nary vein of oil was tapped on Oil Creek last
week. The oil was forced into the air a height
of several feet, and the gas igniting from the
engine house the well was soon in a blaze.
While matters were in this state a spectator
procured a barrel, which he cut in two, and one
half of which he filled with incombustible mat
ter. Wrapping himself closely in wet blankets
he rushed to the blazing well, and setting the
half barrel over the pipe succeeded in driving a
plug into the tube through which the oil flow
ed, thereby extinguishing the fire. He received
four hundred barrels of oil for his trouble, so
that both the owners of the well and himself
were handsome gainers by the operation.
"Love is LIKE A DIZZLNEBB."—Sir Walter
Scott, in one of his songs, gives the following
rather pathetic description of his "feelinks"
once, when in love. The old gentleman must
have had rather a serious time of it, and we
hope his sad fate will be a warning to all inju
dicious young men, whose hearts are not steel
coated against the darts of Cupid, We never
had any experience in that line, but should
judge, from the effects upon some of our ac
quaintances, that it must be "awful." Just
read what Sir Walter says, and take warning,
young men :
"I tried to sing, I tried to pray,
I tried to drown't wi' . drinkin' on't,
I tried wi' toil to drive't away,
But ne'er can sleep for thinkin' on't
"Oh, love ! love ! laddie,
Love's like a dizziness,
It wanna let a puir bodily
Gang about his business."
THE Nemo TELEGRAPH.—We have already
announced the fact that the Atlantic speaks to
the Pacific by the unheard voice of the light
ing—"deep calleth unto deep." We under
stand that the line is now in fine working order,
and messages are constantly passing to and
from the golden State. The cost of sending a
despatch of ten words from Harrisburg to San
Francisco has been fixed at five aollare and ninety
cents, and forty-eight cents for each additional
word. We believe, however, that none of our
citizens have yet availed themselves of the op
portunity to confer thus with their far off west •
em friends.
Many of our readers are not perhaps aware
that by the completion of this line Cape Race,
on the New Foundland coast, and the Golden
Horn in the harbor of San Francisco, a distance
of nearly five thousand miles, is brought within
two hour's telegraphic time of each other. The
next westward extension of the line will be, via
Behring's Straits to the month of the Amoor
river, in Asia, to which point the Russian Gov
ernment is already constructing a line, com
mencing at Moscow. Moscow being now in
telegraphic connection with Liverpool, when
the lines to the Amoor are finished from both
sides, the whole world will be in telegraphic connec
tion,—from the western extremity of the East
ern Continent to the eastern extremity of the
Western,—with but forty miles of submarine
cable, across Behring's Straits.
There is something refreshing in the thought
that the California morning papers will hence
forth lay before their readers the operations of
the army on the Potomac, in Missouri, and
elsewhere, of the previous day—as soon and as
fully as the newspapers of Philadelphia or New
York. If we could longer wonder at anything,
says the Philadelphia Inquirer, at what could we
wonder more than that thought should thus
fly, instantaneous as the light, without change
and without diminution, across the breadth of
this mighty Continent ? Science has now made
the winds her steeds ; has linked the lightnings
to her wings ; and has harnessed the waters to
her chariot. And now messages of love, or sor
row, or politics, or commerce, or ordinary busi
ness, shall thrill through the air, devouring
space and annihilating time, around one-eighth
of the surface of this globe, upon those doleful
wires. Oh, it is marvelous beyond all prose,
beyond all poetry, beyond all fairy tales, beyond
all dreams of opium or of fever. And soon the
voiceful wires will talk, tingling around the
whole circumference of the world, literally fill
ing the grand figure of the Psalmist, " Day
unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night
showeth knowledge."

Board Reduced to $2 per Day,
SINCE the opening of this vast and com
modious Hotel, in 1854, it has been the single en
deavor of the proprietors to make it the most sumptuous,
convenient and comfortable homo for the citizen and
stranger on this side the Atlantic,
And whatever has seemed likely to administer to the
comfort of its guests they have endeavored, without re
gard to coat, to provide, and to combine all the elements
of individual and social enjoyment which modern art
has invented, and modern taste approved ; and the pat
ronag e which it has commanded during the past six years
is a gratifying proof that their efforts have been appre
ciated
To meet the exigencies of the times, when all are re
