THE llvEa continues at flood beighth, and
still rising slowly. We have heard of no dam

upon a bearing before the Mayor this morning
were discharged with an injunction to sin no
more.
A 'SPECIAL MEETING of the City Council will
be held iu the Council chamber at the Court
House to-morrow evening. It is understood
the object of the meeting is to consider a veto
message of the Mayor.

THE FINE WEATHER today brought out the
building committee in full force at Eby &

The committee reported rapid progress and ob
tained leave to sit again the next fine day.

ON man SICK LIST.—John Wenrich, private
in the Verbeke Rifles, 46th Pennsylvania regi
ment, and L. D. Reed, fife major of the 110th
Pennsylvania regiment, both of this city, are
lying in the hospital at Winchester, Va., the
former laboring under an attack of epilepsy,
and the latter typhoid fever.
THE "KENTUCKY BOY," a volunteer in one of
the Ohio regiments, and wounded at the battle
of Bull Run, will deliver a lecture on Tempe
rance and the war, under the auspices of the
Good Templars, in Sanford's Opera House, next
Thursday evening. Seats will be free to the
public.
Tan ROBBERY CASE.—There have been no ad
ditional disclosures made in reference to the
robbery of the grocery store of Messrs. Dock &
Co. by the negro p)rter, Ward. The Govern
ment property found at the " old clos" shop of
the German Jew, Feltman, hasbeen taken charge
of by 11. S. Assistant Master Wilson.
FRUIT TREES AND SHRUBBERY.—Oar readers
should by no means forget the public sale of
fruit trees, evergreens, grape vines; shrubbery,
&c., which will take place at the lower market
house to-morrow morning at Elf o'clock, and in
the evening. The stock is from the nursery of
Mr. J. Mish, below the city, which fact alone is
a sufficient warrant that the articles are of
good quality.
FELL INTO THE RIVER. —A lad named Jacobs,
aged about ten years, while playing on a raft,
tied at the shore of the river below Petatou
street, this morning, accidentally fell headfore
most into the water, and was only saved from
drowning by the prompt action of a German
woman, who fortunately witnessed the disaster,
and had the presence of mind to wade into the
river and assist him to regain terra firma.
THE WEATHER to-day was splendid for all
who have good health, good consciences and
the wherewithal to purchase ordinary comforts.
The "spring fever," however, affects some—
making itself known in unwonted lassitude,
and a perceptible falling off in appetite. This
last is a wise provision of nature. After the
hearty beef, mutton, buckwheat cakes and that
sort of thing, that are freely indulged in du
ring the cold months, the blood is apt to be
come overcharged with humors, which a little
judicious dieting will enable the system to
throw oft. Don't dose yourself with medicine
though, as some people do with the advent of
the first warm day. The indiscriminate use of
cathartics, and the imbibition of abominable
messess called herb teas will only disarrange
the stomach and do no permanent good. If
you feel bilious try the vegetarian diet for a
while, and after a gentle purgation and mild
starvation of a few weeks all symptoms of
spring fever will disappear, your brain will be
clear, your spirits good, and you will be, to all
intents and purposes, a renovated man, and
prepared to endure, uncomplainingly, the
summer heats.
RAILROAD ACOLDENT.—Explosion of a Locomo
tive Boiler —Y ester day morning the local freight
which left Lancaster at 7.45 met with a terri
ble accident some three or four hundred yards
east of the Conestoga bridge. The train was
drawn by engine "No 179," formerly known
as "Old Fogy," being one of the first built at
the Lmeaster Locomotive Works. It was in
charge of engineer Isaac Finkenbine and fire
man George 0. Fisher, both of Columbia.—
When at the point named the boiler exploded,
blowing off the dome with terrific force, which
struck Mr. Finkinbine on the head, smashing
his skull and killing him instantly, and serious
ly injuring the fireman, Mr. Fisher.
The conductor of the train at once returned
to Lancaster and gave notice of the sad casualty,
when the unfortunate victims were brought up
to - the depot in that city, and placed in the
baggage room. Mr. Fisher was found on the
foot board of the engine, and is so seriously
Injured that his recovery is doubtful. One of
his arms is broken, and no doubt, his internal
injuries are severe. Dr. John Atlee, sen., was
Rent for, who rendered all the assistance possi
ble to the wounded man.
It is impossible to give an intelligent con
jecture as to the cause of the acedent. Mr.
Finkenbine was one of the best and most care
ful engineers on the road, and it cannot be
fairly attributed to any direliction oa his part.
He had recently recovered from an• attack of
typhoid fever, and leaves a wife and four chil
dren to mourn the loss of a kind and provident
father, the youngest having been born only on
Saturday last. The deceased has for years en
joyed the confidence of railroad men and the
respect of all who knew him.
AN EVENINO SALE of shade, evergreen and
ornamental trees will take place at the market
house on Wednesday evening. This will af
ford an opportunity to the laboring portion of
the community to attend. See advertisement
in another column.
Capt. A. Corm, of the 45th P. V., passed
through this city to-day, en route for his regi
ment. He had been engaged on a recruiting
tour through Centre and the adjoining counties,
and within a short period forwarded one hundred
men to be attached to the various companies of
the Forty-fifth. Capt. Curtin is one of the most
popular officers in the volunteer rauks, and per
haps better qualified for recruiting than any
man in the Commonwealth. He reports that
there is no difficulty in procuring recruits, and
is of the opinion that Pennsylvania could in a
short time fill another very large requisition.
STATM SABBATH SCHOOL CONVICITION.—We Un
derstand that several of our city Sabbath
Schools, and a number of others from the ad
joining districts, will be represented in the State
Sabbath School convention, which meets in the
First Independent church, Philadelphia, on the
28th of next month. The object of the conven
tion is to obtain an accurate view and survey of
the State in its Sabbath School aspect, with a
view of devising ways and means by which to
impart vigor and efficiency to the cause, and
insure the general interest among the friends.
A general and earnest invitation is extended to
all the friends of the Sabbath School cause to
attend ; but it is especially desired and expected
that each Sabbath School will be represented
by at least one delegate. Excurnii tickets at
half fare will be issued on the Pennsylvania
Central, Lebanon Valley, and Northern Central
railroads to persons wishing to attend the con
vention.
A WOMAN'S THOUGHTS ON BONNETS.—The
bonnet is the frame to the picture. A pretty
face wants the setting to add lustre to its lovli-
Dees. A homely one hopes, by a happy com•
bination of tints, to soften its ugliness, or to
suggest a beauty which it does not possess.
The present bonnets look like coal-scuttles,
and will hardly succeed in making any one
look handsomer. In their anxiety to grow all
of a sudden, they have burst out behind as
before. They may be decidedly stylish but
are not graceful. A high-pointed shelf, pro
tudiug over the forehead, and a bag of lace
hanging out of the crown, large enough for a
work pocket, is anything but artistic. Still, it
is refreshing to see heads crowned with flowers
instead of feathers. To us there was always
an incongruity in the thought of robbing poor
ostriches and smaller birds of their pretty
tails, in order to trick out feminine heads. But
flowers are a natural ornament. Doubtless
one of the first things which Eve did was to
knot flowers in her hair, and to this day flow
ers and rare imitation of flowers make the most
simple and beautiful adorning of her multi
plied daughters. The most gtaceful spring
hat worn Is the simple straw, (void of the silk
or lace crown,) trimmed with budded green
or violet tints, and clusters of spring flowers.
A Foresza HAxmzatraana PROMOTZD.—Dr.
Wm. A. Hammond, of the army, has been
nominated by the President as Surgeon-General,
under the new law reorganizing the Medical
Department of the army. Dr. Hammond is a
eon of Dr. J. W. Hammond, for a number of
years the chief clerk in the State Treasury De
partment in this city, and a brother to pay
master Chas. E. Hammond, who was recently
killed while serving his country on board of
the United States ship Sciota, at Ship Island, in
the gulf of Mexico. He studied medicine with
Dr. E. W. Roberts of this city, and entered the
army as Assistant Surgeon in 1849, being sta
tioned at or near Santa Fee, New Mexico.—
After serving for some years with great distinc
tion, he resigned and resided for some time in
Europe, where, besides devoting himself to
professional studies, he examined with great
care the medical organizations of the various
European armies, and has a thorough knowl
edge of the subject. On his return, he was ap
pointed Professor of Anatomy in the University
of Maryland, which position he held on the
breaking out of the rebellion, when he again
entered the army. Dr. Hammond's appoint
ment receives the endorsement of the profession
throughout the country, and is an evidence
that the Secretary of War intends the reorgan
ization of the Medical Department shall be a
reality. The Doctor has a number of warm
friends in this city, who will read this announce
ment with pleasure.
THE BATTU AT PITTSBUIta LANDING—A Harris
burger's Experience.—We have been kindly per
mitted to publish the following copy of a pri
vate letter, written by Mr. Wm. W. Armstrong,
a private in the "Anderson" or "Buell's Body
Guard," to his father, a resident of this city.—
We have previously stated that the "Guard"
participated in the battle, but it seems that
this is correct with reference to only three of
the troop, the remainder being some fifteen
miles distant, having been detained by the
wagons. The letter, however, details some
facts relative to the battle, that we have not
before seen published :
BATTLE FIELD, NEAR PITTSBURG LANDING,
April 10, 1862.
DEAR Ferrara :—We arrived on Sunday
within fifteen miles of the battle ground at
Pittsburg Landing, having been kept back on
account of our wagons, which had stuck in the
mud. Gen. Buell, however, hastened forward
and reached in time to tarn the tide of battle.
The battle field is eight miles from Savannah.
They were bringing in the wounded all day
on Sunday and Monday into this place. Theta
were three of s our troop with Buell in the
thickest of the fight, but they came out unhurt.
The General had a horse shot under him. The
dead are thickly strewn around our camp for
miles. The rebels fi ught desperately. Genj
S. Johnson, as you may have learned, was
killed. Some of the wounded lay for two days
on the field before they could be removed. I
saw some dead bodies this morning,, that were
partly burned up from the weeds where they
lay, having been set on fire by the shells from
the cannon.
I have never beheld such a ghastly sight be
fore, nor ever wish to do so again.
One of the troop died at Savannah of ty
phoid fever. Two or three others in bad health
have been sent to Louisville.
We are expecting another battle daily.

BEAUTIFYING THE BANK ALONG TAN RIVER,
While it has not up to this time impressed our
city fathers with the importance that some of
our citizens feel in beautifying the river bank,
to make a special appropriation, we notice in
this connection, during the last week, our pub
lic spirited neighbors, George W. and Valentine
Hummel, Jr., busy in having additional trees
planted . , fences repaired, and improvements
made generally ; and we feel safe in saying that
heat oppressed old age, in after years, who finds
shelter under the grateful and cooling shade of
these trees, will bless the public benefactors who
planted thew, and feel kindly towards the
cheap dry goods house of Urich & Bowman for
calling your attention to their new spring
goods.
