AN ENGINEER CORPS.-II is understood that
General Banks has signified to Governor Curtin,
of Pennsylvania, his approval of the plan to
raise an engineer corps under Captain Collis,
and requesting his co operation in the matter.
The plan has also been approved by General
McClellan and General Alexander, the chief of
the Engineer Department.
WE AGAIN call attention to the advertise
ment headed Old Books, Letters, &c., as they
are wanted for a patrio is purpose. We hope
that any of our readers who have a collection of
such old matter and are willing to dispose of
the same at a high price, will immediately ad
dress a line to Mr. R. SWing, at the Post Office
of this city.
FOI,DLER PRINTERS are abundant in the Feder
al army. Several newspapers have been started
at points in the enemy's country, of which our
troops have taken possession, and the last spec
imeu is the Zouave Gazette, published by the
Nineteenth Illinois Volunteers at Elizabeth
town, Kentucky. The rebels were driven pell
mell out of that city the other day, and the
Illinois boys made a decent upon a secession
newspaper office, tipped over the rebellious ar
ticles, purged the concern of treason, and sent
out the Gazette. The editors are Wm. B. Red•
-
field, of the Chicago Journal, wily acifmpanies
the Nineteenth as a correspondent, and Lieut.
L. Bridges. Six soldiers, among whom is W.
J. Ramage, a Philadelphia typo, are the com
positors.
A BRAVE Boy.—On almost every vessel after
the fight at Beaufort, the men were called aft
and publicly thanked by their respective Cap
tains. On the ship Bienville, particular men
tion was made and special thanks retirned, in
presence of the ship's company, to William
Henry Steele, a boy not fourteen years old,
who conducted himself with distinguished
bravery. He is a powder-boy, and not only
never flinched or dodged a shot, but when two
men were killed at his gun he did not turn pale
or cease for an instant his duties, but handed
the cartride he had in his hand to the gunner,
stepped carefully over the bodies, and hastened
below for more ammunition. Young Steele
cannot fail to make such a sailor as his country
will yet be very proud of.
POLlCE—Before the Mayor.—Two soldiers, one
belonging to Capt. Gaylor's company and the
other to Capt. Lapsley's company were arraign
ed for threatening Mr. F. P. klaehnlen. - The
matter was amicably adjusted.
John Mitchell and Sol. Mocherman were ar
raigned for lying around loose at an unreason
able hour last. Saturday night. Mitchell's head
was in a shocking bad condition, the result of
several severe cuts, whichbled profusely. Moch
erman was discharged and Mitchell sent to
a physician.
Denis Carter—a "bould soger boy" from one
of the camps was up for drunkenness. Put
under marching orders for camp.
Jacob Carpenter and David Lessig—both
"drunks"—were each fined $l, which they paid
and were discharged.
Caroline Boon was up for drunkenness. She
was only bailed out of prison last Saturday
morning, where she had been put for keeping a
disorderly house. Sent back to prison. ,
GIVEN THE MITTEN.-011r cotemporary of the
Lancaster Express says that this is certainly a
very delicate matter, yet as ordinary rules are
modified by the exigencies of war, ladies need
have no compunction now in " giving the mit
ten," and a pair of them at that. This cold
morning with its biting air, reminds us of our
soldiers, who perhaps were last night on picket
duty, and obliged with hands stiff with cold.
to carry their iron weapon through all the long
hours of night. The gift of a pair of good
warm mittens would be a generous present to
our faithful soldiers. A regular army officer
suggests that woolen mittens are best, and
should be knit with one finger, so as to allow
the separate use of the forefinger and thumb.
The Crimean war is said to have shown a great
amount of suffering from frost bitten fingers.—
The yarn should be of the best kind of wool.
Half a million pairs of mittens are wanted.
What family fireside circle in city or country
will delay in contributing a quota for this hu
mane and patriotic purpose ?
THEHISTORY OF HAIL COLUMMA.—In the sum
of 1798, a young man connected with the thea
tre at Philadelphia as a singer, was about to
receive a benefit on a certain Monday evening.
On the Saturday afternoon previous he called
on Joseph Hopkins, a rising young lawyer,
twenty-eight years of age, with whom he had
gone to school when both were boys. The actor
said he had but twenty boxes taken, and his
"benefit" would be a loss unless he could get a
patriotic song written to the " President's
March," then a popular air. The poets of the
theatrical corps had tried their hand, but were
satisfied that no words could be made to suit
that air. Hopkins promised to make the at
tempt. At that time there was a great discus
sion in the country as to the policy of America
joining either France or England in the war
.then waged between those two nations, and
party spirit ran very high. Hopkins endeav
ored to write a song that should be independent
of and above the interests, passions and policy
of both belligerents, and look and feel exclu
sively for American honor and rights. He wrote
Hail Columbia. It was announced on Monday
morning, and the theatre was crowded to excess,
and so continued during the season, the song
being encored and repeated many times each
night, the audience joining in the chorus. It
was also sung at nights, in the streets, by large
assemblies of citizens, including members of
Congress, and has now become a national song.
A STATED MEETING of the Friendship fire com
pany will be held in their hall this (Monday)
evening, the 18th inst., at the usual hour. All
the honorary, contributing and active members
are requested to be present, as business concern
ing all will be transacted By order.
CITIZEN, ATTENTION.-A special meeting of the
Citizen Fire CempanS , will be held at their hall
this (Monday) evening, Nov. 18, at 7 o'clock
Every member is requested to be punctual in
attendance, as business of importance will be

GOOD WILL BAIL —The ball of the Good Will
Fire Company comes off at Brant's Hall to-night .
We paid a hasty visit to the saloon to-day, and
found it handsomely decorated, and otherwise
arranged to the extreme point of nicety. The
Good Will boys know how to get up such mat
ters, and never stop at trifles when anything
great is to be accomplished. We advise all who
are fond of "tripping on the light fantastic
toe," and enjoying a good time generally, to be
on hand to-night.
FLAG PRESENTATION.—His excelleW Gov.
Curtin presented State flags to Col. Whites and
Powers' regiments at 4 o'clock this afternoon.
The presentation ceremonies took place in the
Capital Park, in the rear of the State Depart
ment, and were witnessed by a large concourse
of our 'Citizens. The regiments made a fine ap
pearance, and they evidently appreciated the
high honor paid them. The Governor made
spirited speeches on the occasion, which were
ably. responded to by. Cols. Power and White.
The regiment of Col. Power, was to have left
for Washington at six o'clock this afternoon.

PROPOSALS you BEET Carus.—The proposals
for supplying the Government with beef cattle
on the hoof were opened at Washington
last Friday. Three lots of cattle were called
by an advertisement of four thousand each,
to be delivered by the 30th of November,
or as soon after as Government directs at
Harrisburg, Washington, Chambersburg or
York. The Harrisburg lot bids ranged from
$3 39 to s6—s3 55 was the lowest sum sent
in. Twenty bids were below $4.
Washington bids veiled from $3 30 to $5 01,
and only three bidders were below $4 00. The
lowest prices which bidders sent in were $3 70
and $3 90. Those delivered at Chambersburg
or York ran from $3 25 to $4 95, the lowest
bid responding $3 38. In one instance a bidder
offered to deliver cattleat Washington at $3 37,
but wanted $6 00 to deliver them at Harrisburg.
THE Lang CROP.—This very valuable crop is
often entirely overlooked. Multitudes of farm
ers have yet to gather the first leaf harvest.—
Gardeners very generally appreciate the value
of this article, and where it is accessible, it en
ters into their moat valuable composts. Most
farmers are so situated that they can gather
leaves in large quantities, and would readily do
it, if they knew how well it would pay. Chem
ical analysis shows that the leaves of plants are
rich in fertilizing matter, much richer than the
wood. Eleven per cent. of the leaves of the
elm are ashes, while the wood only gives -two
per cent. Other trees show a still greater dif
ference. The constant growth of forests, even
upon poor land, is doubtless owing to the an
nual deposit of leaves upon the surface of the
earth. These, having drawn fertilizing matter
from the subsoil through the roots, deposit on
the surface, where it is available. Every one
has noticed the rank growth of grass where
leaves have been burned or permitted to decay.
They are valuable to the farmer as bedding be
fore they go into the compost heap. Nothing
is better for the sty or stable than a good leaf
bed. The time of rustling leaves has come in
the garden, upon the lawn, in the orchard, and
in the forest. Let them be gathered as the last
of the harvest.
THE YOUNG aux with the billions complexion
and scanty moustache, whose occupation since
attaining his majority has consisted chiefly
standing on one leg at a bar-room door puffing
a four cent cigar—occasionally varied by standing
on the other leg at another bar-room door and
aiding the digestion of his brandy and water by
the mild influence of the seductive Cornish—
has suddenly disappeared. We all know that
youth. He is a type of his class, and it would
be mere superfluity to localize him. Well he
is gone. Hisancient haunts know him no more.
He pours no more libations on the shrine of
Bachus. The mustache is seen no more, and
the four cent weed no longer distils its va
pours. The last we saw of him he was in close
confab with a recruiting Seargeant. Recently,
however, happening to be at Camp Cameron
we recognized a familiar face which rose before
our astonished vision like the armed head in
Macbeth. The head was surmounted by a
pyramidal mass of shinning oil-cloth, while his
other garments were extremely, excessively,
frantically military. But though he had suffr
ed a sea change into something rich and strange
we knew him—despite all foreign integuments
we knew him—it was the billious youth of our
hotel steps. He looked better, manlier, for the
transmogrification. He was doing something
for his country, and he knew it, and the con
.sciousness sparkled in his eye, made his mous
tache sprout,. nerved his dexter member, and
pervaded even his cerulisn hued legs.—
Listless loafer, who still remain'st inglorious
while Uncle Sam summons thee to the field,
go thou and do likewise ! And if, perchance,
the spirit of curiosity still lingers in thy bosom
—the only spirit that survives there mayhap,
besides the extract of juniper—and prompts
these to inquire too closely to whom we allude
in this little sketch; we may fitly answer as
Nathan said unto David--" Thou art the man?"

BIG APPLE.-Mr. Jonathan Spayd, of Jefferson
township, this county, laid upon our desk this
morning an apple raised this fall upon his farm,
which measured fourteen inches in circumference,'
and weighed eighteen ounces.
Trre REGULAR November term of Court com
menced in our city this morning. The morn
ing session was principally devoted to the re
ception of the constables returns, calling the
list of Jurors, and the delivery of the Judge's
charge to the grand Jury. The trial of prison
ers commenced this afternoon; but no cases
were disposed of at the time of closing our re
port.
SACILILEGIL—Last F.riday some rascal threw
a stone into one of the windows of the Old
School Presbyterian church fronting on Third
street, and broke two or three panes of' the
costly stained glass of that establishment.
New glass was put in on Saturday by Mr.
Cruickshank, and this morning one of these was
discovered to be shattered, which leads to the
belief that the act was dor e maliciously. We
understand that the Trustees are about offering
a reward for the discovery of the perpatrators.
"CANVASS BACKS."—These delicious species of
the wild duck are said to be unusually plenty
this season on the lower Susquehamia and
Chesapeake Bay, and hundreds are daily bagged
by sportsmen who flock thither from all sec
tions of the country. Our townsman, Mr.
Samuel Knox, is the owner of a "shooting box"
in that region, and has just returned home with
a bountiful supply of the acquatic game, a large
portion of which he has distributed among his
personal friends, including, of course, "ye
local" of the. TELEGRAPH, for which we tender
him our thanks.
AN EFFEbTUAL CURE FOR THE EAR ACHE.
Take a small piece of cotton batting, cotton
wool, make a depression in the centre with the
end of the finger, and fill it with as much ground
pepper as will rest on a five cent piece, gather
it into a ball and tie it up, dip the ball into
sweet oil and insert it in the ear, covering the
latter with cotton wool, and use a bandage or
cap to retain it in its place. Almost instant re
lief will be experienced, and the application is
so gentle that an infant will not be injured by
it, but experience relief as well as adults.
ARREST OF DESERTERS-Iliyh, hand Proceedings
of a city Policeman.—A short time ago a lieutenant
of one of the Pennsylvania Volunteer compan
ies stationed with the army on the Potomac,
arrived in this city in search of two deserters
named John Walls and Edward Cronister. Af
ter a conference with the police authorities, he
secured the services of officer Campbell, and
went to Mechanicsburg, Cumberland county,
where they succeeded in arresting John Walls,
a notice of which appeared in the TELEGRAPH
at the time. Walls was brought to this city and
confined in the Lock-up. The lieutenant
then proceeded to Danville, leaving word with
officer Campbell, that he would return to this
city, either on the following Saturday or Sun
day night, and taketthe deserters on to Wash
ington. The next day officer Campbell succeed
ed in arresting the other deserter, Cronster,
and placed him also in the lock-up to await the
return of his commanding officer. Thus matters
returned from Danville, and after paying officer
stood until last night, when the lieutenant
Campbell for his services, and the expense of
keeping the deserters in the lock-up, he was met
by officer Radabaugh, in full regimentals, °who
refused to deliver over the prisoners until he re
ceived the sum of twenty-five dollars ! This
the lieutenant, of course, refused to pay,
asserting that he had already settled for the
capture of the deserters, and the expense of
keeping them in the lock-up, and would pay no
more. The Chief replied that he would take
the deserters to Washington himself, and left
with the view of making his arrangements to go
to that city in the train leaving at 3.20 o'clock
this morning. The lieutenant, with officer
Campbell, then repaired to the residence of tit,
Mayor, whom they aroused from his slumbers
and made acquainted with the position of affairs,
when his honor at once wrote a note directing
that the deserters should be given up to the mili
tary officer. This was taken to officer Radabaugh,
Who still, however, persisted in his refusal to sur
render the prisoners, who by this time he
had hand-cuffed, and was about proceeding with
them to the depot to await the departure of the
train. The lieutenant with officer Camp
bell again repaired to the Mayor's residence,
"when his honor becoming acquainted with the
refusal of his chief officer to recognize his order,
at once dressed himself and proceeded with the
officers to a restaurant near the depot where
they found Radabaugh with the two deserters
hand-cuffed, awaiting the departure of the
train to Washington. The Mayor at once con
fronted Radabaugh and demanded to know why
he had disregarded his order. The crest-fallen
chief made some incoherent reply, but was quick
ly interrupted by an order from the Mayor to
remove the hand-cuffs from the prisoners ) to
which he sullenly complied. The Mayor then
directed him to surrender his badge of office, to
which the Chief responded, " I submit to my
superior officer," and handed over the silver
" Malt ese." The deserters were then placed in
the custody of the military officer, who left
with them in the morning train for Washington,
after which the Mayor - returned to his resi
dence, while the Chief, in all the pomp of gold
laced cap, military coat and pantaloons, was
left alone to mourn over his departed greatness.
We understand that this is not the first time the
ex-Chief has disobeyed the order of the Mayor,
and uprin one or two occasions was detected in
assuming extra official jurisdictions, which was
severely commented upon by the press at the
time, and which caused his temporary suspen
sion.
