HARRISBURG. PA
Friday Afternoon, December 20, 1861,
PROMOTID.—Gov. Curtin, commander-in-chief
of the militia of Pennsylvania, has appointed
Charles O'Neill, Corporal of company E, First
Pennsylvania Reserve Corps (Col. Roberts,) a
Second L4ntenant in company C, Eighty-fourth
regiment, Pennaylvania volunteers (Col. Wm.
Murray.)
Lieut. O'Neill is now on duty with his regi
ment in Virginia. He is a native of Lancaster,
Pa., and a printer by profession.
BULL RUN PRISONERS. —On Wednesday some
four or five soldiers, belonging to Minnessota
and Wisconsin regements, and wounded in the
battle at Bull Run, passed through the city, on
their way homeward. They came from Rich.
mond direct, but were unable to tell much
about matters there as their wounds were too
serious to permit of their going about. They
were all fine looking men, but are maimed for
life, all a c'tf them having either a leg or an arm
taken off.
Pimp. MCCOY AT CAMP CURTIN. —Prof. M'Coy,
the distinguished orator, has accepted an invi
tation, signed by the commissioned officers at
Cimp Curtin, to repeat his great oration "On
the London Times on the Rebellion and the
war for the Constitution," before the officers and
soldiers at that Camp at one o'clock to-morrow
afternoon. The oration will be delivered on the
parade ground, from a platform, to be erected
for that purpose, the troops occupying the
front, formed in a hollow square. The oc
casion promises to be one of great interest.
BROKE Jam —Two prisoners- the only ones
in the Lebanon county jail—escaped on Wed
nesday of last week, by cutting a hole through
the ceiling of their cell through which they got
on the roof of the prison, thence to the jail wall,
and thence to "freedom." Their names are
Jonas Hoffman and Jacob Zattazahn. The for
mer is about 30 years of age, 5 feet 8 inches
high, with black hair and sandy complexion ;
the latter is about 18 years of age, about 5 feet
four inches in height, with light hair. Sheriff
Bender offers twenty-five dollars each for their
recapture. The hole through which they es
caped must have made a tight squeeze for them.
Since writing the above we learn that Zatta
zahn was captured the next day in the barn of
Mr. Gerberich, in Union township; and was re
turned to prison.
ORATION ON TEMPERANCE. —Those of our citi
zens who had the good fortune to hear Prof.
iticCoy deliver his great oration "On the Lon
don Times on the Rebellion and tho war for the
Constitution," will be gratified to learn that
an opportunity will be afforded them next Mon
day night to hear the distinguished orator upon
another subject—that of Temperance. Prof.
M'Coy has for a number of years been a, zealous
laborer in tha cause of temperance, both in the
forum and through the press, and takes a live
ly interest in any measure that tends to the
advancement of this great reform. The title
of the proposed lecture is "A Historical Vindi
cation of Tempqrance Societies," and is repre
sented to be a beautiful production, abounding
with humorous, descriptions, thrilling incidents,
and unanswerable arguments. The oration will
be delivered in the Fourth Street Bethel next
Monday night, forlhe benefit of Advance Lodge,
No 39, I. 0. of Good Templets Admission
fifteen cents. Tickets to be had at the book
stores, and at the door on the evening of the
Lecture.
PoLim—Before the Mayor.—Chris. Bing was
arraigned for drunkenness and abusing his wife.
Committed for 30 days.
Richard Galshall and R. C. Tompkins, were
arraigned charged with stealing officer Camp
bell's cane. Re-committed to the lock-up.
Andrew Pilliar and Henry Simpson were up
for drunkenness. Re-committed to the lock-up.
James Berman and Wm. Sing were charged
with drunkenness and discharged.
John M. Dean and James Muskey were
charged with assault and battery on Alex. Rug
gles. By mutual consent the case was settled
by defendants paying costs.
Yesterday a woman named Catharine Hamil
ton made oath against Geo. Robinson, -charging
him with the larceny of a blanket. A search
warrant was issued to officer Campbell, who suc
ceeded in recovering the blanket at Robinson's
residence, but the defendant was non esf.
A dashing specimen of the "frail sisterhood,"
attired in silks and satins, was arrested last
night by officer Campbell for drunkenness and
disorderly conduct on the streets. The officer
placed her in the city lock-up, but when he
went there this morning to take her before the
"Mayor, it was discovered that she was non est.—
Subsequent investigation proved that during
the temporary absence of the watchman from
the Mayor's office, ono of her pals obtained the
keys of the lock-up, and released her from du
mace. She has doubtless left the city.
By the Consolidated Police. —"Whisky Jim"—
an Irishman—arrested for drunkenneis and dis
orderly conduct. Committed by Alderman
Caldwell.

PROBABLE FATAL OCCIDENT. —Mr. Jacob Hal
bach, residing a few miles above the city, was
shot this morning by the accidental discharge
of a pistol,which he 'was examining. lho ball
entered his body in the neighborhood of the
heart, inflicting a wound that will most proba
bly prove fatal.
BATAILION PARADE. —A battalion of Col.
Campbell's regiment from Camp Curtin, favor
ed our citizens with a street parade this after
noon. The battallion was preceeded by an ex
cellent brass band, and the fine appearance of
the men attracted much attention. The com
panies marched with the precision of regulars.
I=l
GOOD ADVIOE.—A volunteer who prides him
self on the domestic arts he has learned during
camp life, writes home to advise the girls not
to be in a hurry to marry, for the boys will be
home in a short time, and they can get good
husbands that can cook, wash and iron, and do
general housework, or work in the garden, or
run errands for their wives.
Lima. SMPPLEY. —The many personal friends
of Lieut. Ales. Shippley will be gratified to
learn that he rendered distinguished services at
Fort Pickens during the recent bombardment
of the rebel batteries at and around Pensacola.
Major Arnold, commanding the batteries on
Fort Pickens, in his official despatch of the en
gagement, published in this evening's TELE
oftepa, in alluding to a marvelous escape of
Lieut. S. and his command, adds that he " ob
served with admiration the gallant and efficient
manner that Lieut: Shippley commanded his
Battery during the two days of the bombard
ment.'
• WIRE WALKING. —Prof. Donaldson, who has
opened Brant's Hall for a series of entertain
ments in magic and ventriloquism, astonished
the natives " hereabouts" yesterday afternoon
by walking a rope attached from the roof of
Breitinger's restaurant to the roof of Braftt's
Hall—an average heighth of probably sixty
feet. Long before the time announced for this
performance a large crowd had assembled in
Market and Third streets, anxious to witness
the perilous feat. Shortly after four o'clock
Prof. Donaldson in all the pomp of " tights "
and spangles appeared on the roof of Breiting
er's restaurant, where he was greeted with a
rousing shout of applause from the assembled
multitude. After quiet was restored the Pro
fessor with ballancing pole in hand stepped on
the rope, and with the air of a French dancing
master, proceeded -on his hazardous journey,
performing several gymnastic feats as he went
along. When he reached Brant's Hall, he
blindfolded himself and started on a slow but
successful walk to the other end of the rope
from whence he started, and which completed
the performance. The feat was performed with
great courage, and was highly appreciated by
those who witnessed it.
Bums. STATISTICS.—Few people have any
idea of the immense quantity of butter that is
daily shipped from the several stations alethg
the line of the Pennsylvania Railroad in the in
terior of the State, to the eastern market. The .
Johnstown Tribune gives the following state
ment of butter shipped from that town during
the months of September, October, November
and December up to Saturday last, the 14th
inst., to wit :
September 1,157 kegs.
Octuber
November .6,988 "
December, (to the 14th inet.,)..1,568 "
Total butter shipped in 3} m0nth5..13,995 kegs.
This amount of butter, when viewed in-the
aggregated number of kegs, will at once strike
the • reader as enormous—especially to be
handled at a single station in so short a time as
three months,and a half. But when the amount
of butter contained in these fourteen thousand
kegs is reduced to pounds, the immensity of the
quantity becomes more apparent.
We estimate that each keg contains upon an
average fifty-six pounds of butter, (each keg
and contents is manifested at sixty-two pounds.)
This, by simple multiplication, gives us a pro
duct of seven hundred and eighty-three thousand, seven
hundred and twenty (783,720 !) pounds as the net
amount of the butter thus shipped A huge
pile of this table-essential, surely--enough, one
would think, to spread the "pieces" of the non
producers of half the realm.
THE CHRISTMAS HOLlDAYS.—NOtWithStallding
our political disturbances, the approach of the
holidays fills us with the same joyous anticipa
tions as in by-gone years of peace. Our politi
cal troubles will not for a moment be suffered to
come in contact wilh our social enjoyments, and
must give way before the hallowed memories
of "merry Christmas," and the time-honored
associations of the "happy New Year." Old
and young, rich and poor, are alike counting
the few long-tarrying days which intervene be
tween happy re-unions, the merry . greetings,
the gifts, the feasts, and the thousand bless
ings which good Santa Claus showers upon poor
mortals.
The shop-keepers, as usual, give evidence
that they are awake to the near approach of
the holiday harvest, and many of them are
availing themselves of our columns, and our
nice display type, to let the public know what
they have. See the displays of goods, the very
mention of which in type creates an unappeasea
ble appetite in the female heart till it is grati
fied; see how careful another is in providing
some new fashioned articles of wearing apparel
which will secure the body against the changes
of the weather. One has books for the mind,
another blankets for the body. One has am
brotypes and photographs for remembrance,
another has trinkets and jewelry for adornment.
One has work baskets for stowing away the
knick-knacks of the ladies, another sewing ma
chines to render them more free from the sla
very of labor. Everywhere thertiare evidences
of mind actively employed to add - to the com
forts of life, and of shrewd, sharp business
sense, making the facts known in the most
public way in the newspapers to the multitudes
readers who now peruse those brief records
of politics and of business with greater avidity
than ever, filled as they are with the history of
the world of to-day, and left, as they are, at
their doors daily, for the smallest coin that the
Government condescends .to embellish with
the likeness of its- representative bird the
eagle. .
peunepluania Oak) telegraph, frittav 'Afternoon, ll:lumber 20, 1861
ATTENTION Goon WILL —A special meeting of
the Good Will Fire Company will be held in
their hall this (Friday) evening, at 8 o'clock.
By order.
SLIPPERS FOR THE SICK SOLDIERS ,--Among
those articles indispensible for hospital use, are
slippers. They may be made of Brussels or
three ply carpet, and almost every house
keeper has peicea of one or the other lying by,
there need be no difficulty in procuring the ma
terial at least. Five hundred pairs of such
slippers might be made here within a month i
our wives and daughters would but try to get
them up. ,
AItRIVAII OF MILITARY. —A fine looking volun
teer company, numbering some eighty odd men,
from Bellefonte and vicinity, commanded by
Capt. W. W. Brown, arrived here at noon to
day, and went into quarters at Camp Curtin.—
Capt. Brown is associate editor of the Centre
Democrat, and although we believe he never had
much experience in the art militaire, he neverthe
less wears the sword with all the grace and digni
ty of a veteran, and we have no doubt that when
an occasion presents itself the gallant Captain
will show himself an adept in its use against the
enemies of his country. In this connection we
might notice that the proprietor of the Centre De
mocrat is the Second Lieutenant of the company,
and that among the privates, are three or four
printers who formerly worked in the same of
fice Bully for the Centre Democrat. •
PROMOTED.—By Special Order No. 33, of the
commander-in-chief, published in another col
umn of this evening's TELEGRAPH, it will be
seen that Mr. 0. W. Sees has been appointed
Chief of the Transportation and Telegraph De
partment in the State military service, and will
assume the duties of that position next Monday.
Lieut. Col. St es—we believe that is the title of
the rank which goes with the post—was for
merly chief telegrapher in the office of the At
lantic and Ohio Telegraph Company in this city,
but since the commencement of the rebellion he
has had charge of the telegraph apparatus in
the Executive Department, in which position he
has given general satisfaction. He is a young
gentleman of considerabh3 intelligence, polite
deportment, and correct business habits, and
will . faithfully serve the interests of the State in
his new and responsible position. •
FOUND. —A new pocket, book containing a
railroad ticket from Williamsport to Philadel
phia, was found id Judge Murray's lumber yard.
The owner can have the same by- calling on B.
G. Peters' Farmers' Hotel. 2t.
