I=Z==l
THANKssiivio DAY will be duly observed in
this city next Thursday by the closing of places
of public business, and the opening of churches
for divine service.
CC=
STATE EDUCATIONAL CONVENTION.—This body
will meet in the Senate Chamber, in this city,
at 9 o'clock to-morrow morning. A large
number of delegates have already arrived, and
there is every promise that the Convention will
be largely attended.
I=l=l
NAME CHANGED.—The name of the "Shamo
kin Bank" has been altered, by the County
Court, to that of "Bank of. Northumberland
County," but remains at Shamokin. To avoid
mistakes, people will do well to remember to
not confound this with the old "Bank of
Northumberland," at Northumberland.
COL. WYNKOOP' 9 REGIMENT.—The Seventh
Pennsylvania Cavalry Regiment, Colonel Wyn
koop, now stationed at Camp Cameron, near
this city, has been ordered to Kentucky, and
will leave for their destination in a few days.—
The regiment is full and completely equipped,
and will be armed with the improved carbine
and sabre.

THE SPECIAL COMMITTED appointe,l by the
House of Representatives of the last Congress,
to investigate alleged army frauds, which has
been in session at the Jones' House in this city,
since last Friday, terminated its labors this
morning. A number of witnesses were ex
amined, and a large mass of testimony gathered,
which, however, will'not be made public until
reported to Congress.
SPRING is lovely, with its flowers, its balmy
air, its singing birds, its verdure and its prom
ise. Summer is enchanting in its passionate
embrace, its full glow of glory and its luscious
gifts. Autumn is gorgeous with its multi-col
ored dies, and generous in its teeming plenty.
But winter is the Sabbath of the earth, when it
rests from its labors, and recuperates its strength
and affords us the opportunity for the enjoy
ment of all the gifts the former seasons have
prepared for us. Talk of the "soft Summer
night,"—give us the pleasant Winter night, be
fore a crackling, blazing fire, with the apples
hissing and sputtering on the hearth ; the foam
ing, steaming flp, unctions, sweet-flavored nut,
and fri:lnds to sit with us, and eat and laugh,
and drink and jest, and join in the mirth that
laughs to scorn the howling, baffled winds out
side.
SANFORD'S OPERA TROUPE.—Sanford certainly
deserves the thanks of oar amusement-loving
public for the untiring efforts he has made, and
is making, for their enjoyment. It is seldom
that an Ethiopian Troupe risks more than two
days stay in our community ; but the gay and
imcomparable Sanford has dashed into a success
with an energy that astonishes old managers.
A thorough going business man, he under
stands perfectly how a concert of this kind
should be conducted, and he appears to have a
perfect comprehension of what sort of enter
tainment the public desires. He has never dis
appointed expectations formed of him. He is,
moreover, a gentlemanas well as an accomplish
ed vocalist. We, therefore, say to those who
appreciate merit, and who would enjoy merit,
to visit Brent's Hall to-night.
CoarsmernmE.—lf there is Qne thing meaner
than another—or a person who is lower and
viler than another—it is the anonymous abuse
of a neighbor, and the person who indulges in
this despicable propensity. Straight forward,
outspoken abuse" looks as though it was honora
bly intended, and it can be met with silent con
tempt and some degree of allowance ; but the
serpent like slanderer, who spits venom in the
dark is worse than the depraved spirits who
congregate in the realms of the devil and re
joice over the downfall of christianity. Stich peo
ple are undeserving a place in society or in the
confidence of the lowest humanity, and thus
they are looked upon by all thinking people
who hear their tales and by all those who are
made the victims of their malice. We never
knew one of these people, who was not so wick
ed at heart that he or she would not hesitate
to stoop lower, dive deeper into the pool of in
famy and come up dirtier than the veriest skunk
and petty thief among humanity.
I=l
EXPRATION OF THE STAY LAW.—On the 21st of
May, 1861, says the Pittsburg Dispatch, the Le
gislature of Pennsylvania passed an act relating
to judgments and executions, in which it was
provided that upon all judgments then remain
ing unsatisfied, or which might be obtained
within six month from the passage of the act,
or upon which a sale of real estate had not been
confirmed, there should be a stay of execution
for one year from the date of the passage of the
act, as .regarded judgments then existing, and
from their date as regarded judgments obtained
within the ensuing six months, providing the
defendant should be possessed. of sufficient real
estate, and gave bail for payment of the judg
ment.
The passage of this act has had a very de
pressing influence upon the civil business of Al
dermen and Justices in the Commonwealth, and
its expiration on Thursday was greeted with no
little satisfaction by the entire body. A brisker
business will probably be transacted in the col
lection of debts, since the special provision of a
year's stay of execution has expired by limita
tion. Under this act the sale of collaterals was
also prohibited, within the year, and the party
selling them became responsible for double the
amount of the collaterals to the party;ov6ng
them. There were some exceptions to the gen
eral application of the act, as to the minimum
amount of the judgment on which stay could
be taken, those belonging to widows and or
phans, etc., etc.
DummotusmsuTou.—Gov. Randall, of
Wisconsin, is now in our city, the guest of his
excellency Gov. Curtin.
MILITARY FUNRRALS.—There were two or
three military funerals from Camp Curtin yes
terday, but we could not learn the names of
the deceased. The bodies were intered in the
cemetery with appropriate military honors.
GEN. ANDERSON'S BODY GUARD. —This corps,
comprising one hundred and three picked men,
have received their uniform, horses and equip
ments, and expect to leave their present quar
ters at the Carlisle barracks next Friday or Sat
urday for Kentucky. They will be review
ed at the barracks next Wednesday by General
Anderson. The men composing the corps were
all selected with special references to their
qualifications, and are fitted out in a very supe
rior manner. They are uniformed in dark blue
clpth,'tritruited with red, blue overcoats, and a
black felt hat with the innitial letters R. A. in
brass on the front. Messrs. Valentine Hummel
and Wm. H. Armstrong, both of whom were in
the three months' service, represent this city in
the "Guard."
I=l=l
THE Locann, CAVALRY. —This fine regiment,
twelve hundred strong, was made the recipient
of one of the beautiful stand of colors, author
ized by the last Legislature, about 12 o'clock
noon to-day. The presentation ceremonies
took place in front of the Executive mansion in
2nd st., and were witnessed by a large concourse
of our citizens. The Governor presented the colors
in a speech replete with patriotic allusions,
which were enthusiastically cheered by the as
sembled multitude. In response, Major Jordan
assured his excellency that he fully apprecia
ted his flattering remarks in reference to the
regiment, and pledged his Colonel and men
that the flag presented to them by their native
State should never be disgraced by deser
tion or cowardice in the hour of battle.
The Governor then introduced his guest, Gov.
Randall, of Wisconsin, to the assemblage, who
delivered an eloquent and thrilling speech,
which was received with the most enthusiastic
cheers. After the speeches the band played a
patriotic air, when three cheers were pro
posed for the flag and three for the Governor,
which were all given with a hearty will. The
following are the officers of the regiment :
Col. E. C. Williams, of Harrisburg ; Lieut. Col.
Thomas 0. James, of Philadelphia ; Majors
Thos. J. Jordan, of Harrisburg, Geo, Blight
Browne, of Philadelphia, and R. W. Russell of
Bedford county.
The regiment is fortunate in having men of
decided military experience in chief command.
Col. Williams was through the Mexican war as
captain of the Cameron Guard of this city, and
was in command of a brigade in Patterson's di
vision during the three months' service. Lieut.
Col. James is an old officer of the First City
Troop of Philadelphia —one of the best drilled
cavalry companies in the country. Major Jordan
served in Gen. Keim's staff, in the three
months' service. Majors Broome and Russell
are also both good soldiers, and bring with them
peculiar fitness for their position. Upon the
whole we venture the assertion that there is not
a bettered officered regiment in the service than
the Lochiel Cavalry. The regiment was to have
loft this afternoon for Newport, Ky., where
it will remain for a few days, "'As" ' 4- um - loin the
division of the army under Gen. Hunter tt 5 ‘.a...,4
the rebels in the southern part of Kentucky.
THEE Ammucor Coxsurtrriorr.—lf there is
any one subject, says a cotemporary on which
our American youths should be thoroughly in
structed beyond all others, it is in relation to
the fundamental principles of our government,
as set forth in the Constitution of the United
States, and of the several States of the Union.
A friend who has given this matter many years
attention states that there are few subjects of
such general interest on which there is such a
degree of ignorance apparent. We have always
regarded it as one of the chief duties of instruc
tors to instil in their pupils a comprehensive
'knowledge of the laws of our country, and the
general principles to 'hich they are expected to
conform. The constitutions are seldom pub
lished in a form to place them in the hands of
pupils, and there are thousands and tens of
thousands of youths, between the ages of ten
and twenty years, who have no more knowledge
of the American Constitutions than they have
of the Koran, or of Joe Smith's Bible ; there are
thousands, indeed, who pass from boyhood to ,
the grave without having once read through
the compendium of the laws by which they . are
governed ; who have shouted for, and quadreni
ally voted to save, the "Palladium of our Liber
ties" without the slightest knowledge of its
tenure, or its terms.
This subject is recommended to the grave
consideration of the Convention of Instructors
which will assemble in our city to-morrow, and
unlike many others who discover and point out
defects in social laws or anything else—suggests
also a simple and practicable remedy. It is
simply to insert in all the new editions of
"Readers" and "Speakers,"—of which there'
are a hundred series in our public and private
schools—an appendix containing the Constitu
tion of the United States and that of the State
of Pennsylvania, as a part of the reading mat
ter of the book. Such an addition would cer
tainly be equal, in style and brevity of compo
sition, to any of the random and threadbare
"selections" with which such books are gener
ally filled. If teachers as a body insisted upon
the introduction of such a • subject into text
books, there would soon be such a wholesome
rivalry among publishers as would supply to
the advanced classes, as a portion of their read
ing books, a complete compendium of the con
stitutions referred to, with such a comparative
analysis as would indicate the leading points of
difference between the constitution of our own
and the different States. Such reading as that
referred to is not generally sought after sponta
neously by youth, but when presented to them
in this form it cannot fail to leave a permanent
impression—to "become as familiar as house
hold worlds" It needs no argument to demon
strate how desirable such an end would be, and
we trust the matter will be brought forward
and urged before the Convention in such a
manner as to secure the attention of publishers
I to it.
Pertnovlvattiet .elegraph, illontrav - afternoon, November 25, 1861
A SpEciAr. MaaTING of the Friendship fire
company will be held in their hirll this (Monday)
evening, the 25th inst., at 7 o'clock. All the
honorary, contributing and active members are

IN Towx.—Hon. Joseph Ritner, of Cumber
land county, was in town this morning. The
ex-Governor is iu his eighty-second year, but
still continues remarkably healthy and active.
Re is at present residing on his farm, near
Carlisle, the cultivation of which he personally
superintends, performing himself much of the
rough labor incident to that occupation.
STOCKING KNITTING SOCIETY IN MECHANICS
ECECL—The patriotic work of preparing stock
ings and mittens for our soldiers is going bravely
on. News reaches us from all parts of our
country that the ladies are at work earnestly in
the noble cause.
A short time ago, a society was formed at
Mechanicsburg, with Rev: J. W. Early as Presi
dent, and Mrs. D. Bard, Mrs. J Vandersool,
Mrs. R. S. Gates, Miss Kate Lebkichler, and
Miss Kate Vandersool, a committee to solicit
and receive funds, for the purchase of material.
The good citizens of that neighborhood will no
doubt contribute liberally of their means, and
give the ladies abundant work at knitting. No
good citizen who has to spare will, for a mo
ment, withhold aid to our brave volunteers,
who are so highly worthy of every attention we
can give, to make them comfortable.
SENTENCES.—The following sentences were
pronounced by his honor Judge Pearson at the
Court this afternoon :
James Davis, convicted of exhibiting obscene
pictures. Fined $2O, costs of prosecution, and
two months Imprisonment..

'TEACHING THE YOUNG IDEA. How TO SHOOT. ' '—
The Pittsburg Dispatch says it is a settled maxim
of all governments, especially of Republics, that
each citizen owes military service to the State,
and upon this principle our government places
its reliance for defence against external and in
ternal foes. The prompt response which fol
lowed the call of the government, this year, for
volunteers, has shown to the world that this
trust was well founded, but how much more
effective would this response have been, had the
requis" ,, military training of our people been of
a more general ctiaraw...., ;,,..t. sc l of being con -
fined to a few score of volunteer companies;,:_
each State ! While the people of the north
have been fostering the system of common
schools, and securing to every youth the ad
vantages of an education which would fit him
for the pursuit of any branch of civil business,
the military training of our people has received
no attention whatever, though upon it we rely
for that very security which has made the pur
suit of peaceful employment so profitable. It
is not improbable that the termination of the
present national troubles will be followed by a
reorganization of our military system, and one
of the leading features of such a remodelling
should be the introduction of military training
into our schools.
It does not follow that the introduction of
such a branch into our public school system
should involve auy additional outlay, and yet
it might be made of essential service to the
State—of as much service„probably, as the sup
port of volunteer companies at considerable
cost, not only to the State, but to the individu
al members of such organizations. The real
benefits derived from the system of volunteer
training are the instruction of the members in
the simple movements of the squad or company.
The facings, wheelings, flank movements, and
habits of attention and prompt obedience to
command. Beyond this, the training of the
volunteer seldom extends in time of peace, and
in the evolutions of the regiment or brigade he
receives no practical instruction until called in
to actual service in time of war. °Yet this sim
ple training has made the drilled volunteer a
veteran in comparison with the raw recruit.
All these movements could be as readily
taught in our common schools, and, if neces
sary, by the regular corps of teachers, as in the
armories of the volunteer companies, with the
additional advantages of the habit of the obedi
ence and attention to the instructors, instilled
into pupils, and of regular attendance. There
would be but little difficulty in securing com
petent instructors, as the necessary qualifica
tions could be acquired by a few weeks of pre
paratory study. The military training thus
received would never be entirely effaced from
the memory of the pupil. If called upon to
shoulder his musket in the ranks or to take
command, it would not require months of drill
to teach him the meaning of a flank move
ment, or how to face at the word of command.
We would have the military talent which now
lies dormant in the masses cultivated and
brought forward, and have proper men to take
I command in time of trouble.
It is to be hoped that this matter will receive
the attention of the Educational authorities of
, the State, and that its introduction may be in
sured at the present time, while the public feel
ing is strongly enlisted in favor of such a move
ment.

Board Reduced to $2 per Day
SINCE the opening of this vast and corn
modiou Hotel, in 1854, it has been the single en
deavor of the proprietors to make it the most sumptuous,
convenient and comfortable home for the citizen and
stranger on this siae the Atlantic.
And whatever has seemed likely to administer to the
Comfort of its guests they have endeavored, without re
gard to cost, 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
ronage 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
quired to practice the most rigid economy, the under
signed
Rave Reduced the Price of Board to
Two Dollars berlDat
at the same abating none of the luxuries with ;which
their table has hitherto been supplied.
