HARRISBURG, PA
Monday Afternoon, January 20, 1862.
THE LEGISTATURE,—Both Hquses of the Leg
islature reassembled at 11 o'clock this morn
ing, having adjourned over last Friday. A
synopsis of to-day's proceedings will be found
in another column All the officers have been
appointed, and the standing committees an
nounced, so that we may now expect to see
the business of the session c ,rumenced in
earnest.
ME "SEVEN SISTERS." — This popular, thrill
ing and patriotic drama is to be presented at
Sanford's Opera House this evening, with all
the original dressrs, scenery and other appoint
ments which rendered the piece so highly at
tractive in Philadelphia. The play abounds
in patriotic allusions, fine tableaux, and local
incidents, and is bound to create a sensation in
our play-going circles. We anticipate a "full
house" at Sanford's tonight.
ANOTHER DULL DAY. —The present winter
seems to run in the direction of wet and muck
rather than in the way of ice and snow. The
cold "snaps" are generally of short &nation,
and they are succeeded by wretched, foggy and
misty weather; the snow storms have thus far
proved failures, and they generally end in sleet
or rain. Last evening the clouds seemed to
portend a snow storm, but to-day we had rain,
mist and muck in its stead.
A PROFESSIONAL PARTY. —Judge Pearson Of
this city presided at the Chester county court
last week in place of Judge Butler, in order to
try cases in which the latter was interested•
The West Chester Times noticing the fact says
that Judge Pearson was handsomely entertained
at the residence of Judge Butler on Thursday
evening last, a large number of professional
gentlemen were present. It was an occasion of
wit, edification and social enjoyment—festive
in more than one sense.
I=l
JOT SIDEWALKS. —We continue to hear of ac
cidents on the icy sidewalks. A stranger pro
ceeding to the depot this morning experienced
a severe fall in Foutth street, spraining his
ankle to such an extent that he was compelled
to forego his contemplated departure in the
cars, and returned to his hotel, where he is now
receiving medical attention. We alluded
briefly, some time ago, to the criminal negli
gence of householders in not removing the ice
remaining on the sidewalks, and even failing to
take the cheap and ordinary precaution of
sprinkling ashes on the slippery surface. Per
haps a smart remauder from the police, in ac
cordance with the ordinance on the subject,
'would do something towards effecting a reform
in this matter.
MADAM:II ANDIA. BISHOP'S CONCERT. —Our read
ers should bear the .fact.in mind that Madame
Anna Bishop's concert at Brant's Hall comes off
on Wednesday evening. We need not say any
thing dn . praise of the lady's abilities. No one
ever heard her exquisite voice without receiving
a new ecstatic sensation, and the echoes of her
pure notes vibrate on the recollection, haunting
us like pleasant dreams with their sunny influ
ences. Her method is a model of excellence,
and her voice is as sweet in its cadence as a lute
or a harp. We bespeak for her a crowded
house and a warm welcome. To the pleasure
of Madame Bishop is that of the debut in our
city of Mr. Edward Seguin, the son of a cele
brated and most popular vocalist. He is said
to have Inherited the fine voice of his father,
and his musical education has been completed
with great care at the imperial conservator at
Paris. Tickets for the concert are now far sale
at Knoche's music store, 93 Market street,
where seats may also be procured.
Thrive "cold" is not necessarily
says the Scientific American, the result of law or
high temperature. A person may go directly
from a hot bath into a cold one, or into snow,
even, and not take cold as he would by pouring
a couple of table spoonsfull of water upon some
part of his dress, or by standing in a door, or
by opening another, where one part of the body.
is colder than another. Let it be kept in mind
that unifoi mity of temperature over the whole
body is the first thing to be looked after. It is
the uniform circulation of some part. If you
must keep a partially wet garment on, it would
be well, perhaps, to wet the whole of it uni
formily. The feet are a great wince of colds,
on account of the variable temperature they
are subjected to. Keep them alirays dry and
warm, and avoid drafts of air, hot or cold, wet
spots on the garments and other direct causes
of unequal temperature, and keep the system
braced up by plenty of sleep, and the eschew
ing of debiltiating food and drinks,and you will
be proof against a cold and its results.
A Ban Paecrice.—We observe that it is
quite customary among the denizens of the
smaller dwellings of our city, to shut the win
dow shutters all around the lower story, as soon
as the gas is lignted. This is done partly with
a view of economizing fuel, partly in imitation
of many of the aristocracy. A cotemporary re
marks that is for the latter to hermetically
seal their lower story thus when the rooms are
extremely large, or when the walls are furnish
ed with vents ators, but even when these reme
dies are present, the furnace heat and the con
sumption of oxygen by a large numberlA gas
burners, make the parlors rather smothery
places. " One who knows," involuntarily takes
a long breathing, whenever he passes over a
large parlor, the wooden shutters of which are
tightly closed. while yet the sound of a piano
-proclaims that it is still tenanted by human be
ings. So long as the shutters are open, we can
hope that the warping of the unseasoned wood
so commonly used in our houses, and the im
perfection of the carpenter work will permit of
the ingress of some fresh air. But the double
barrier is nearly impervious to this invigorating
cordial. What shall we, say then of those of
the poorer classes who, though they have a
hone:: of half a dozen rooms, usually keep up
but one fire—so that in the " snuggest" room
of the house ; and after the whole family has
spent the day in that room, seal it up as above
at night P .
Gaon° Music Herm.— We advise all who
have the " blues" to drop in at the "Grotto,"
and, if the performances fail to bring imme
diate relief, we will be compelled to prononnce
the case hopeless.
POLICE.—The city lock-up contained six
tenants last night—four "drunks" and two
colored "wags"—all of whom upon a hearing
before his honor, the Mayor, this morning, were
properly disposed, of. The consolidated police
made no arrests on - Saturday or Sunday.
THE "BUCKTAIL" BRASS BAND.—Since the re
cent battle at Drainesville, the "Bucktails"
have taken an unusual interest in Capt. Eas
ton's battery. It is ref orted that two men
from each company are daily taking lessons in
the artillery drill, so that, should it ever be
become necessary, they may render Capt. E.
more efficient service. They have dubbed the
battery ''The Bucktail Brass Band," and say
that there is no mistake in its music, and that
they will stick to it to the last.
COURT. —The regular term of the c )urt of
quarter ses.ions commenced in our city at ten
o'clock this morning. There was but a slim
attendance of countrymen, owing, we presume,
to the bad condition of the roads. A number
of the constables of the several wards and
townships submitted their reports, and some
business of an unimportant nature transacted,
when in consequence of the absence of the as
sociate judges, and a large number of grand
jury-men, the court adjourned until 2 o'clock
P. M. The business of the afternoon session
was chiefly devoted to the reception of the
reports of those constables who were not in
attendance at the morning session, and the de
livery of the Judge's charge to the grand
jury.
=I
DEATH OF Gro. A. C. SEILER ) Mg. —Meeting of
the Bar.—At a meeting of the members of the
Dauphin county Bar, held in the Court room,
.this morning, the following preamble and reso
lutions were unanimously adopted:
WnEnzes, It hath pleased God to remove
from our midst our fellow member of the Bar,
George A. C. Seiler ;
And Whereas, It is right and proper that a
fit expression of our sentiments should be giv
en of this affliction ; therefore,
Resolved, That in the loss of Geo. A. C. Seiler,
Esq., we feel that one has been taken from us,
whose kindness of heart, geniality of manners,
and genuine friendship, recommended and en
deared him to all his associates.
Resolved, That we sincerely condole with his
stricken family in this their hour of affliction,
and extend to them our earnest sympathy.
Resolved, That this Bar attend the funeral of
our late Mend and brother Geo. A. C. Seiler,
and that these resolutions be entered upon the
minutes of the Court, and published.
SUNDAY SUMS. —Every Sabbath this winter,
since the existence of ice, the river shore and
ponds in the vicinity of our city have been
swarming with young men and boys amusing
themselves with skates. Now this is all wrong.
A man or boy who has no more respect for the
Sabbath and himself than to engage in such
pursuits on Sunday, will, in our opinion, never
amount to much. Parents should know where
to find their children at least one day in the
week, and that day, above all others, should
be Sunday. Parents in a great measure ure re
sponsible for the actions of their children, and
if they do not see that their early training is
of such a nature as to make them respect the
laws of God, how can they be expected to obey
the laws of men. "Remember the Sabbath
day to keep it holy," says the Fourth Com
mandment, and that is God's law, and " the
way of the transgressor is hard," and it would
be cold too, if they should happen to break
through the ice.
Artoryr Dunians.—What is a bad dinner?'ls
it a plain one ? That, in a country like ours,
where the viands are, or ought to be, in their
primitive condition, first rate, is the best you
can sit down to. The French and Germans are
much more scientific in their cookery than we
are, but that arises from the fact that they have
worse raw material to deal with. Their art has
its origin in poverty. Their meat is stringy
and lean—their fish poor and tasteless ; but
these they can dregs up with sauce of rare
poignancy and merit, and from their ovens
miserable veal and flaccid carp emerge as posi
tivedainties. All honor to them for their in
genuity ! They are attempting, through culi
nary and almost chemical science, to make pal
atable and digestible food out of substances
which rank low in the natural scale ; and that
they do succeed, what traveled gastronome can
deny ? But here, wherethe beef and and mut
ton, the flesh and game, poultry and vegeta
bles can be had, not only in exceeding variety
of kind, but of the primest quality--why
should people make a desperate but really un
availing effort to introduce foreign appliances
which only serve to spoil that which, reasona
bly treated, would furnish forth the finest ban
quet that the broad universe can display.

SHAEFFERS RESEAURAD.T.—Attention is direct

another column. He has fitted up in excellent
style the building opposite this office, where he
is prepared to receive his friends in good style,

Dn. JONES, the! successful Oculist and Aurist,
will practice at Herr's hotel, Harrisburg, from
from the 20th of January to the 10th February.
Dr. Jones is considered by those who know him
best to be the most skillful eye and ear doctor
in this country. He straightens cross eyes, in
serts artificial eyes, introduces artificial ear
drums, operates for cateracts, and treats all
kinds of difficult diseases.
HE Costa ow floasz BACK.—The susceptibility
of the American people, to run wild in their
homage to human nature in the shape of things
called Princes, Lords, Actresses and English
Poets, who have visited these United States,
called forth the gratitude in pamphlet form a
few years since, of Dickens and Fanny Kemble,
but all that folly can be safely passed, compar
ed with a fifty cent tide some of our citizens
had with the Fakir of Avast Brant's Hall, a few
nights since. Our sable friend, Gen. Fleming
Mitchell says it glorifies him so, he has bad to
laugh at your ignorance, the gentleman, who
failed to get a ticket, can invest his little 25 or
