A MIDDLUTOWPER IN TILE PITTIIBUNG
George F. Ross, son of Rev. Joseph Boss,
e Middletown, and a brother of H. A. Boss, of
the firm of Gross & Co., druggists, of this city,
Igo: in the hottest of the battle fought at Pitts-
Lew, a few weeks since. The regiment to which
he is attached, the 13th lowa, was in both battles,
Seed iy and Monday, and was hterally out to
pi t cvs. We are happy to say that Mr. R. es
caped with two slight wounds.
Sumo in both the Pennsylvania and Union
canals, hoe been stopped, caused by several
b aka in the former, in the upper counties.
The river has ovetflowed it in some places and
it cannc.t be repaired until the water falls.
Boating in the Union bad been quite lively,
and the obliging collector, Mr. John Snavely,
informs the editor of the Middletown Journal
tha , the channel is in first rate order, and that
the preepeate for a good run this season is
quite flattering.
We neanuit stated ye,ter d ymorning that the
woman found drowned in the canal near the
" two mile lock," below this city, a notice of
which appeared in last Monday's Telegraph, was
identified as the wife of a mat living some
where below Middletown. She had been resi
ding in this city for several weeks, where she
antracted habits of drinking, and it is supposed
that while laboring under the influence of liquor
she wandered to the chnal, and either accident
ally fell, or voluntarily threw herself into the
water, and was drowned.
The COWMBtA Dent. —The obstruction to the
passage of fish in the Susquehanna, caused by
the darn at Columbia—after baying been egl
hied in every way but the right one for an in
definite length of time, by means of remon
strating with the company and stirring them
in the paper—is now about to be brought up
la something like a definite shape, and one of
which the law can and no doubt will take
cognisance. Complaint has been made before
..thlcrinan Van Camp, of Lancaster city, by
loaned Nagle, setting forth that the company
ara guilty of a nuisance in the premises. This
will be, returned to the present court of that
county, and a bill probably found.

Arum TO 808 AT MIDDIBITOWN.—It seems
that tie cittesns of our neighboring borough,
ittddletown, are not altogether exempt from
the vititatione of burglars. On Sunday night,
ss we lents from the Journal, an attempt was
made by some daring fellow to enter the store
room of Messrs. Melly. The scoundrel tried to
!farce an entrance through the °Moe attached
lathe rear of the building, and succeeded in
Plying open the shatter, when he was beard by
Doe of the clerks, who sleeps in the store.—
W hile attempting to force the window, the
clerk grasped a large duelling pistol, and dis
charged the contents, consisting of two bullets
sad about sixty buck shots, at the robber. It
be ing Jerk, he could not take aim, and there
fl)te did nut hit the intruder, but the shot took
elect within one foot of the place where the
14 0 was working, and had the load been dis
charged a little more to the right, the thief
would have received the contents in his heart.
Se heavy waathe charge, that the defender was
lujeted to BOitm eXterkt by the " kieking " of
the pistol. The thief has not yet been appre
hended, but we may state that the same
Weapon has been reloaded with about one hurl
buck shots, and woe be to the man who
dates to make a similar attempt.

IMPORTANT MiSEIAGLI 1 1 110/1 Tss MATOIL—At
special meeting of City Council Wednesday even
ing, the following 11113911140 was received and
read:
2b the President and Common Council of fhb city
of Harnsburg:
Cstrrunixx:— As I cannot, consistent with
my views of the charter of the city of Harris
burg, as I understood the opinion of the Su
preme Court thereon, and my genie of duty to
the tax payers of the mid city, approve of the
ordinance passed by the Common Council on
the 11th day of April, instant, making appropri
ations for the ordinary expenses and improvs
ments of the city for the year ending March
81st, 1888, I return the same to your body
with my objections thereto, as required by the
ninth section of the charter. .
The Supreme Court, construing the charter
of this city, say:- " The law that gives the
Mayor authority, as a functionary, in the pass•
age of ordinances, authorises and maims hen to
ascertain their propriety, and therefore to invite
into all (ha facts that are proper to influence his
judgment. He mew( properly approve any ordi
nance without such ineurry,"
One, and the principal objection to the said
proposed ordinance is, that it appropriates the
large now of nine thousand four hundred. and
sixty-nine dollars in seven brief How, as fa
lows, to wit•
For the water works
For city lamps and lights
For fire department...
For 'Arcot', fint'distriat..
fecund district
" third district
Miscellaneotio---prhiting, stationery
Frons these few words, and this loose, vague
and indelinite appropriation ' it is impossi ble
for the Mayor "to ascertain the propriety "of
this ordinance. The charter 'imperatively re
quires, (say the Supreme Court,) that the
Kayos shall ascertain the propriety of all ordi
nances submitted for his approval. Re is
bound "to inquire into all the ' facts that are
proper to influence his Judgment ; and indeed
without such inquiry he cannot properly ap
prove any ordinance."
It is true teat the proposed ordinance states
that the aforesaid sum of money, or so much
thereof as may be necessary, is hereby appro
priated for the ordinary expenses and improve
ments of the several departments of the said
city, for the year ending Much 81st, 1868—
the sans gobs upended at such 'Mtn& as may be
directed by Council." But, in no part of the
same are any particular improvements sped
lied ; nor are the main items of exp-nditures
for the Water works, " for.o4f larlaprfrind other
lights," stated therein: with regard to the ap
propriation of three thoLitid rdos hundred dollars
" for Weds," the ordinance is still more indefi
nite. What fad or items aro furnished by the
ordinance to the . Mayor from which he can as
certain the propriety of the sum P How is he
" to inquire into all the facts that are proper to
' influence his judgment r wittiout which in
quiry, say the Supreme Court, 'he-cannot prop
erly approve of any ordioame." In these re
spects the ordinance is radically defective.
By the 10th section of tiff charter, all oidi-
Dances,. sto., are required to be published in two
of the public newspapers published in the city,
within fifteen days from and after the same
have been pleased. The chatter declares that
these publications shall be made "in order that
a knewledge of the saute may.at all times be
had and obtained" by the citizens, tax-payers
and other persontrinterestedr therebi. This
proposed ordinance gvonld let vo the t .oitizens,
tax payers and' all other Perstitii tiiitidde of the
Coencii,Chamher, it! total ignoraette of itheprin
eipal Weis intended to, be accomplished by this
large approprititituf":iihc4fiti' Tettldinying to
teem all proper informatien. of
.what admits
are to be aocompliShed by the large sum of
money, which must be drawn from their o
industry, and the triiits of tbeft fattier labor,i
prudence and economy. And herein this pro
posed ordinance will be essentially derogatory
to the rights of laid eitisene Sad tax-payers,
and cannot,. therefore, meet my approval. Be
sides those matters, it seems to me that this
action of the Council, in making this large ap
propriation beforo it is known what amount ou
revenue the city can draw from taxation, foun
ded, as it must be, upon the amount of the as
aessment made by the commissioners for county
rates and levies, is premature. Prudence would
seem to dictate that the Council should with
hold this and all other ordinances making ap
propriations to bepaid out of the city revenues,
until the amount of those assessments are as
certained ; otherwise an amount of taxation
may have to be levied, which, in diva of rebel
lion, and consequent stagnation of business,
with scarcity of money and increased State and
United States taxes, may greviouely burdenthe
industry and resources of our fellow citizens.
The actual permanent funded debt of the
city is now $162,800, exclusive of any. floating
and unfunded debt, which on the 81st March,
1861, amounted to $25,000. What the actual
floating debt of the city amounts to at this
time I have no actual knowledge of, nor have
I the means within my power to precisely as
certain. The annual interest upon the funded
debt, which must bet paid sedil-Manually on
the first days of July and January, amounts
to the sum of 89,766, to which id to be added
the Stets tax on a great portion of this amount
and to be paid by the city.
The proposed ordinance appropriates $9,469,
making the demands upon the rexem*,of the
city from those two objects alone, the large
sum of about $20,000. This presents, In nay
judgment, a very grave matter for the con
sideration of the Council, in authorizing ex
penditures which must weigh heavily upon the
resources of the city, ant would seem to
indicate the exercise of great caution on the
part of the city authorities. And I think your
body will agree with me in saying that all
appropriations for the expenditure of money
arising from whatever cause they may, short of
absolute and imperious necessity, ehould be
withheld until the present bigamous rebellion
be finally suppressed, and peace and prosperity
be once again restored to our common country.
For myself, actiunder the above view, I
here most respeetMly but distinctly say to he
Council, that I will do anything within my
power to lessen the expenditures of the city, and
for this purpose will not give my sanction to
any ordinance for the expenditure of money
unless satisfied that the same is imprimis( re
quired to promote the peace, good order and comfort of
our fellow Mittens.
Among the items reported by the water com
mittee to the Council upon which the appro
priation of $2,11b is I Suppose founded, I do
not see that the salary of the engineer employed
by the city at the water works is included. If
this salary is to be paid, as I have no doubt it
is intended that it shall be paid out of the city
treasury, and not out of the sum named in the
ordinance, it will Swell the expenditure, "for
the water works" to about $2,800, a sum ex
ceeding that which prudence, in these perilous
days, would regard as necessary or absolutely
required for the welfare of the city or the com
fort of its citizens.
The appropriation " for city , huliPB and other
lights"
to entirely too general, vague and in
definite to enable any citizen, much lase my
self, bound by my racial oath, to judge of the
propriety of this appropriation. Nor does the
report of the gas committee, that there will be
required " oghta $1,279, posts and lamps
sl6o', repairing, &c., $26, the amount of each
appropriation give me any additional light. It
way be that the "In of $1,279, if it includes
all that to be paid to the gas company and
those employed to light the /maps is not too much.
But to the item " for posts and hunpa" rosirh

fitunolgvania nail!) etitgraphoiribav filming, 'April 25, 1862
ject, as being in direct opposition to the opinion
of the Supreme Court, and to my duties and
authority as Mayor of the city.
The appropiiadation for the fine deeartmeot
is not two high, and if the items which com
pose thenurn of :$l6OO, were spetsifics.lly given
in the ordinance, it would meet with my nu
qalified approbation. The appropriation of
$B9OO, merely saying ".Fbr 'streets, Fast dastrief,"
and in the same words for the other districts,
is most objectionable, Inasmuch as it does not
provide that the several supervisors shall be
paid out of those sums, all of which sums too
might, in my judgment, be expended to the
exclusion of supervisors salaries upon objects,
or for objects not specified in the ordinance,
not now absolutely necessary, or required to be
attended to, such as sewers, and improvementsi
of like nature, the ordinance appropriating the
monies - to l'impiovernents," as well as "ordi
nary expenses." And thus the Council might
and themselves called upon to pars an ad
ditional ordinance providing for the pay of au •
pervisors, and the necessaay repairs, and clean
ing of streets, &o.
For the reasons above submitted I decline to
approve of said proposed ordinance, and
hereby respectfully return the same to the
Common council for their action thereon, ire,
provided in the 9th section of the charter of
the city.

On Puma Sestoora.—Our citizens should feel
the highest degree of gratification for the ad
vantage they possess in the system of public'
schools now in operation in this place. Under
the careful supervision of the board of direct
ors, the utmost caution is manifested in the,
selection of teachers, and we venture to say
that there is not a city in the State of Pennsyl
vania blest with more competent teachers in
their public schools. Fully realizing, the great
responsibility devolving upon individuals, our .
Instructors, both male and female, appear to
devote their entire tithe and attention in di
directing the interests of the schools over which
they exercise authority. As a general thing,
also, the pupils are very much attached to their
teachers, and thereforefore a mutual intercourse
Is maintained eminently Conductive to devel-'
opment of the scholars and the advancement
of thetti in all branches Of study taught.—
Where ouch a condition °Mange exists in pub
lic schools failure of success is an impossibility.
Our public institutions of learning have grad
ually advanced into popularity, and are now
held in universal esteem by our citizens. We
are exceeding rejoiced at the Indications, and
feel quite sure that there will be no diminution
of exertion on the part of the directors to in
crease the edvantages our schools afford the
public, and to make thorn, as. attractive as in
atitutiptutingAgher..prrnogatives.
Tam Wart llerver,ops.—The rage for envelops
decorated with patriotic or other
tti 4AI
without the protection of a flag, and 'portraits
of 'distinguished personages cease to mum; the
corner opposite to the physlognOmt of Trish
ington. Curious speculators, says the U. S.
kail,bave accumulated a great variety of speci
mens of these illustrated 'envelops; and' the
time will doubtless come when such collections
will be examined with'the utmost interest byl
Antiquarians desirous of getting a glimpse of
the feelings and himors of our times, as they
were displayed during the
. great . civil war of
the Western Continent. What• a remarkable
I jumble of patriotism, sentiment, humor and
animosity does Erich a collection present I Old
letters:areillned, not only for the nieintiiy of
their writers; but for the historical and bio
grspical matter which they contain. And even
envelops, their dry husks, which enclosed a
precious kernel, become themselves fresh with
vitality when they bear upon their faces marks
of the feelings of a groat nation. The modem
writers of 'history, with more comprehensive
views than many of their predecessors, do not
regard the life of a nation as consisting entirely
in the intrigues of its rulers and their struggles
for power, bat consider th e doings pt '.the. peo
ple in their valions' relations; domestic, com
mercial, and the like,,as of equal importance
to the completion of the record.
To Tux Pustao.—The junior . partner: of our
firm,' Mr. O. B. Bowman, has just retarded from
New York and Philadelphia, with a carefully
selected stick of spring and summer dry goods,
embracing all the new sVles, to which We re
spectfully call the attention of the public, at
the cheap dry goods house, south-east corner of
Front and Market streets.
