HAHRIBBURG
Tuesday Afternoon, February 25, 1862.
LEFF FOR TUE SEAT OF WAIL-Mr. Samuel
Davis, of the Harrisburg City Cavalry, att*ched
to the Seventh Pennsylvania Cavalry, Colonel
Wynkoop, left here at four o'clock this after
noon to join his company, now in service in
Kentucky.
LECIONS.—Rev. Robert J. Carson will deliver
a lecture on the subject of "Itinerancy," in the
Vine Street M. E. church, on Wednesday eve
ning, the 26th, at 7} o'clock, fur the benefit of
the Sabbath school. Tickets can be had at the
door on the evening of the lecture.
Onassiort.—ln our notice of citizens who il
luminated their residences on the evening of
the 22nd iust , we inadvertently omitted the
names of Messrs Kepple, Young, Glides, Pee
lor, Stroniinger, Reel, and the Miss. Lefeveres,
in State street, opposite the Brady House; Win.
Buehiers in Market street, Peter Bernheizel in
Second street, and David M'Cormick and Rev
Mr. Maher in State street. The residences of
these gentlemen and ladies were handsomely
illuminated, and attracted much attention
I=
BEAUTIFUL PAINTING —The "skating scene on
the Susquehanna" introduced in the popular
play of "New Year's calls," now performing at
Sanford's Opera House, was painted expressly
for the occasion by Mr. John Crukahank, of our
city, and as a work of art challenges the &dint
ration of every spectator. The coloring is ex
ceedingly natural, and the perspective faultless;
and, taking in connection with the merry tab
lauz vivant in front, forms altogether a view
which fairly mocks reality.
Da. JONES, or NEW YORK, who is practicing
at Herr's Hotel, in tills city, with such un
bounded success, will remain here until the 3d of
March, when be leaves for Lancaster city, where
be will practice at the City Hotel for a couple
of weeks before he returns home. Dr. Jones
has devoted his life and fortune to the study
and treatment of chronic diseases ; hence his
great success. Dr. J. has cured many old stand
ing diseases in this vi inity which had been pro
nounced incntable. It is not necessary for the
patient to see the Doctor more than once, in
order to have a cure effected, as chronic diseases
require a certain course of treatment, which
must be continued until a cure is effected.
THE TWENTY-BEOOND AT DAUPHIN. —The birth
day of the Father of his Country was celebrated
with more than usual display in the pleasant
little village of Dauphin. Both at sun-rise and
at noon a salute of thirty-four guns was fired.
At two o'clock there was a general meeting of
the citizens in the Presbyterian church, where
Washington's Farewell Address was read, and
brief addresses delivered by the pastors of the
place. In the evening many of the private
dwellings were brilliantly illuminated; a pro
cession, accompanied by martial music pro
ceeded through the streets of the village, and
the whole was celebrated by a beautiful display
of fire-works, under the directions of Messrs.
Rhodes and McCullough. All the citizens of
the place seemed to engage in the celebration
of the day with much enthusiasm, and mani
fested a commendable degree of patriotism and
public spirit.

SOLDIER SROT.-A soldier named Frank Van
Valburg, of York, Pa., quarter-master of Capt.
Dorshiemer's company, (A,) of Col. Seigles' reg
iment, was shot about 11 o'clock last night in
front of Sauter's lager beer saloon, in Rasberry
alley, this city, by another soldier who, it is
said, belongs to Col. Meredith's regiment, 56th
Pennsylvania.
From all the particulars of the affair that we
can gather, it seems that a squad of about a
dozen of men belonging to Capt. Dorshiemer's
company, in charge of a sergeant, came to the
city last evening for the purpose of hunting up
and arresting stragglers from the camp, and
while in the dis harge of this duty they visited
Sauter's lager beer saloon. They did not re
main here long until they were told that one
of the members of their company was engaged
fighting with another soldier in the alley out
side the saloon, when Van Valburg immediately
left for the scene, and throwing himself be
tween the combatants with the view of parting
them, he was shot by the strange soldier, the
ball piercing his breast, near the nipple, and
taking effect in his tight lung.
Immediately after the report of the pistol,
the soldier who fired it was knocked down by a
cousin of the wounded man, but he quickly
regained his feet and contrived to make his es
cape, leaving, however, his cap on the ground,
from which it was discovered that he belonged
to the 56th regiment.
Van Valburg, after receiving the ball, fell to
the ground, and it was at first supposed that he
was dead ; but a closer examination proved the
contrary, when he was lifted up and, carried by
his comrades to Herr's hotel, the proprietors of
which kindly furnished a bed for his accommo
dation. Drs. Seiler and Rutherford, Jr., were
called in, and they promptly proceeded to probe
the wound, but up to the lime of writing, they
have not succeeded in extracting the ball. The
wounded man suffered with severe pain until
this morning, when under the influence of the
proper restoratives, he rested somewhat easier,
yet his friends entertain very little hope of his
recovery.
This morning o:pt. Dorsheimer appeared be
fore the Mayor, and made the necessary legal
information of the occurauce, when a warrant
was issued, and placed in the hands of officer
Campbell, who in company with officer Kline,
this afternoon proceeded to Camp Curtin and
succeeded in arresting Lieut. Samuel C. Konig
macher of the 56th Pennsylvania Regiment,
who has been identified by some of Van Val.
burgh's companions as the person who fired
the pistol. The Lieutenant was brought
to the Mayor's office in a hack, and after a
brief hearing committed to prison, the criti
cal condition of Van Valburg, not justify
ing his honor in taking bail for the prisoner's
app^.a►rance.
AN AFFLICTED FAMILY.—It . the family of Kr.
David Wagner, residing in East Hanover town
ship, there weie nine of its members prostoated
with the scarlet fever at the same time one
VMS a corpse, and several of the rest seemed to
be near the borders of the grave.
PA
CONCERT BY THE BLIND PUP/LB.—The pupils
of the Pennsylvania Institution for the 81i..d,
will give their annual grand concert in this
city at Brant's Hell this evening. A fine or
chestra and choir will be present, in charge of
the principal conductor, Carl Bents. The appara
tus used to instruct the pupils will be exhibited
to the audience. Altogether the concert pro
mises to be very interesting.
THE &cam of wind last night was unusually
severe, and played sad havoc with awnings,
tree branches, flags and window shutters
throughout the city. A large chimney over
one of the shops at the Round House, and a
partially finished tenement in the rear of the
Episcopal church, were levelled by the violence
of the storm. The wires of the magnetic tele
e,raph were also deranged by the same cause
which prevented us from getting our usual
amount of despatches last night. This morn
ing opened clear and cold, with every prospect
that the "changeable term" of the last six
weeks is ended, and that we are now to enjoy
an extended spell of clear weather.
THE PENNSYLVANIA TROOPS IN BORTH CARO
LINA.—We have previously noticed the arrival
here of Cul. Christ, of tae Fiftieth Pennsylva
nia regiment, at Beaufort, S. C. He left Hilton
Head on last Monday week, February 10. His
regiment was encamped with another, the
Pennsylvania Roundheads, under Col. Leasure,
and the New York Seventy-ninth. A recon
noissance the night before he left to the main
land, by one of his captains, disclosed the fact
that the enemy had not attempted to reoccupy
the fort commanding Port Royal ferry, out of
which they were driven on the first day of the
year by General Stevens' brigade, lying upon
the direct road leading from Port Royal ferry
to the Charleston and Savannah railroad. The
heaviest, force of the rebels lie in and around
Savannah. They were not sure whether
Charleston or Savannah would be the first point
of attack. Four hundred of the Massachusetts
cavalry had arrived, and were actively at work
relieving the infantry from some of their most
onerous and fatiguing duties. The United
States army there has been reinforced quietly
until it has reached twenty-two thousand. The
health of the troops is generally very good.
He.has no doubt that Savannah has fallen.
Neither hie nor Leasure's men were to accom
pany it, and great disappointment was felt on
this Account.
Ws UNDERSTAND that a certain landlord in
this city has threatened to turn the family of
one of our brave volunteers out of the house
they occupy, for the non-payment of a few
months' rent, caused, it seems, by the inability
of the husband, (wbo is in one of the Pennsyl
vania regiments in South Carolina,) to remit his
usual allowance, having himself failed to re
ceive any pay for the lastthree months' service,
We have something to say in this matter :
When the ear was startled by the news from
Baltimore, how the nation rose! From every
woodland cottage and mountain home, men
came to throw themselves on their country's
altar, and while the heart said, "I could fight
if I had a foe, ' the mind resolved to if the ene
my advanced, "It will be over my dead body."
Those who could not endure a soldier's life,
gave freely to the support of the families of
those who could, and what better way to help
our country in this darkest hour of her need
Many landlords said go, your family—my ten
ants shall pay no rent while you are fighting
for me, and the home of my children. How
much since then the soldier's heart has been
strengthened by knowing those at home cared
for his wife and little ones, and that while he
stood sentinel among strange scenes, in cold,
danger and darkness, his children slept at
HOME.
We have visited some of these houses—the
houses of the soldiers' wives—how thick they
Stand on Northern soil to-day—and we have
heard a sturdy little boy, who thought we had
news of his papa say, "I can fight, take me to
my papa." Worthy son of such a sire! Would
it not unnerve that father's arm, spread mutiny
in camp and desolation over the land, could he
imagine his children crying for bread, and his
wife knew not what roof, other than the winter
sky, would shelter her when the landlord turns
her from the house she calls her home.
Can there be such a landlord—does he rally
haunt this home and tease the family, by desir
ing them to leave while the husband is at this
moment, perhaps, in the battle field, and in
stead of cheering her who sorrows over her
natural protector, add to her distress in the
most heartless manner. What if he does wish
his house for another person? What if the law
of Blackstone, Smith, Itawle or Coke upon Lit
tleton, gives him a landlord's title over a widow
less tenement, does he not know that there is a
law or humanity, of necessity and of justice,
which holds superior sway in every loyal citi
zen's soul at this peculiar time. Is it not due
to every soldier who is protecting the houses of
kind as well as unkind landlords, to have his
temporary home and helpless wife and children.
Let us ask this landlord where his houses
would have been before this, if the soldier had
not stood between him and the desolating foe.
As the let of April approaches, let landlords re.
member the 19th of bust April—the mob in Bal
timore, and Small'soverpowered men retreating
into loyal Pennsylvania. Did you not wish
for soldiers then, and did they not come and
form a living wall from then till now, between
you and danger Now, when you think you
are safe—protected by these patriotsvisit the
homes of their families and tell them, though
the absent father does not write that he will
send money to pay the rent as soon as the cir
cumstances of war will permit, you will throw
the family into the street ? Will you ? Echo
answers will you P Let the miscreant who would
do so, hide his head in shame ; or, if be would
be worthy of the light and sunshine, let him go
to the soldier's family and say this house is still
your home, rest contented, and I will not shrink
in guilty fear from the summons : ''This night
shall thy soul be required of thee."

plause " The skating:scene in play is

THE ROBBERY ON THE BRlDGE.—Arrested on
Suzpicipn. —A colored man named Owen Blim,
was arrested yesterday in the sixth ward by
officer Campbell, on suspicion of having been
interested in the robbery and attempted' murder
of the drover Elwood, in the Harrisburg Bridge
last Sunday night, a full account of which ap
peared in last evening's TELEGRAPH. Blue was
taken before the Mayor, but there being no tes
timony to warrant his detention, he was dis
charged. The robber is still at large.
" THE RED, WHITE AND Ikus."--When the
North rushed to arms last Spring, to avenge
the insult to our flag at Fort Sumter, and the
most intense enthusiasm prevaded the commu
nity, a perfect eruption of flags took place all
over the Northern States. Some of these
signals of our loyalty, says the Pittsburg Ga
zette, were gotten up in strict accordance with
the statutory " Army Regulations" on the sub
ject, but by far the largest portion were vile
slanders on that "standard sheet," which has
been recently "floating" with so much effect
through Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri and
sundry other States of this Union. Constantly
recurring political conventions and fete days
had corrupted popular ideas on this subject to
a most shocking extent, and nine-tenths of the
striped bunting hung out on such occasions,
bore about as much resemblance to the real
flag, as a cotton hankerchief to a genuine silk
bandanna. There was a quantity of red, white
and blue in each, but the proportionate quan-
tity varied with the taste . of the maker in each
instance. Any number of stripes, from five to
to fifteen were introduced ; In some cases the
blue field was a mere spot, thrown in for ef
fect, while in others, the azure predominated
to the almost utter exclusion of stripes. Ev
ery shade approaching red, from a dirty coffee
colored brown, to the palest lake were used in
differently, and the proportion of length and
breadth were fixed to suit the convenience, or
the character of the materials, of the maker.
The outbreak of •the rebellion, however fol
lowed by a demand for troops by hundreds of
thousands,and flags by thousands,had the effect,
in some measure, of correcting the evil. It was
necessary to provide the "three month's men,"
"three year's men" and "Home Guards" with
flags that would bear inspection, and authori
ties were consulted in making, that the donors
might not be mortified by a rejection of their
gifts. We were led to hope that a better taste
pervaded the community, from the fact that
the caricatures, which had been so plentiful at
first, were gradually disappearing, as the own
era became convinced that they were not the
"genuine thing." The recurrence of the
Twenty.second of February, however, leading
to another patriotic display of the Stars and
Stripes, has convinced us that they were only
withdrawn for the time being. The same cart.
acture of the "flag of the free" can be seen on
every street, floating from every description of
tenement. Why not hang out a flag made in
accordance with the a regulations, when it will
cost no more than a miserable apology for ene.
STABILITY or HABIT. —" There is no funeral
so sad to follow as the funeral of our youth,
which we have been pampering , with fond de
sires, ambitious hope, and all the bright ber
ries that hang in poisonous clusters over the
path of life." The importance of contracting
correct habits will apply in every action of our
lives ; for instance it is a duty society demands
of us to dress genteel, but we are not required
to throw our money away on worthless goods ;
hence, it is important to purchase where we
can get good goods for the least money. That
place is Unica Sr. Bownates, corner Front and
