EIARRISBURG, PA
Tuesday Al teruoon, May 6, 1862.
IN oua BEPOILT of the proceedings \of the
Cameron Banquet, under the sub-head of "The
Banquet Hall," reference is made to "William"
when it should have been David Hutchinson.
David has been connected with the Tones' Rouse
for several years, and certainly no man has
labored more assiduously for an employer than
he has for Col Coverly. To his industry he
adds a courtesy and a kindness becoming his
position, and always calculated to win and re
tain friends.
A POSITIVE NUISANCE. —Ol/r attention has
been called to a serious nuisance which bas
been suffered to exist for some time on the pub
lic ground, a short distance north of the State
arsenal, in the shape of a large pile of manure,
from which the most nauseous odor is constant
ly exhaled, to the great disgust of promenaders
and residents in that vicinity. They call the
pile of filth a "compost," and say that it is
intended to be applied as a fertilizing agent
over the grounds next fall. This is all very
well;',but we submit that the "compost" ought
to be prepared in some more suitable locality,
where it will not be offensive to our citizens.
===
SPA:B2 Tea Bran.—We have noticed several
boys lately going out on fine days into the
woods and meadows, with their guns, "with
dire intent to slay" apparently, and no doubt
actually. Now, if we had any secesh (kuown
to be such in our vicinity) this practice would
not be at all reprehensible ; but as we have
none who are bold enough to avow themselves,
we do not see the necessity for guns, especially
when some portions of our county have been
83 renowned for "peace meetings," and of
course have an utter aversion to all deadly
weapons except whisky bottles—which last, we
are sorry to say, are still doing their deadly
work among us. But to return to our subject:
Boys, we do hope you didn't go out to shoot
the poor little blue birds, that are not fit to
eat—nor to send the murderous shot through
the vitals of little robin red-breast, whose beau
tiful song awakes you in the morning. Spare
the birds—the robing, the larks and the blue
birds—their intrinsic value Is nothing—but we
wouldn't give the morning song of either of
them for all the bird pot pies ever made. You
may shoot bull frogs, who poke their ugly
snouts ont of the edges of ponds, and sing
"more rum," like human imbibers, never get
ting enough, but let the birds alone. It is not
only a sign of viciousness to wantonly kill the
birds we have mentioned, but the law inflicts
a penalty for so doing, and some of you before
you know what you are about, may find your
selves in trouble for setting the law at defiance.
It seems so cruel, so unnatural to destroy
these poor little creatures, whose beauty de
lights the eye, and whose morning song falls
so musically upon the ear. Spare the birds,
boys ; we are sure you will, and we hope that
some "children of a larger growth," who
ought to have better sense, but haven't, will
follow your example and let them alone.
THE COUNTY REz,cEF FUND.—We trust that the
county commissioners will loose no time in se
curing sufficient funds to renew the payment of
the small weekly allowances to the families of
volunteers who may be is need of assistance.—
If the war should cease, and the money should
not be needed, it could be applied for other
purposes. At all events, relief should be ex
tended to all who are in need, in consequence
of the absence of their husbands, fathers and
brothers in the army. It is due to them as a
right . and the expense should not be looked
upon as a burtion by those who are called upon
to meet it. This relief is not a charity, but a
debt which those in comfortable circumstances
at home owe to the families of those brave
men who are on the battle field. What is a
small additional tax compared with the hard
ship, the suffering, and the privations, which
many of our men are undergoing? The hos
pitals, the grave-covered battle fields, and the
wailing of widows and orphans, should be a
enficient answer to the money-grubs who croak
about not being able to pay the additional tax.
There are men in the country—men of wealth,
too—who would never pay a dollar to the war,
unless it were squeezed out of them by taxa
tion, while the noble and generous have sub
scribed upon all occasions.
What was the inducement held out to vol
unteers by those who could not, (or did not,)
go to the war ? "Go ! Never mind your fam
ilies We'll take care of them I" This was
the promise made by the people, and the faith
of every county in the State stands pledged for
the support of those families. The honor of
the Commonwealth is also at stake in this
matter, having given full power to every county
to levy and collect a tax for this purpose.—
These pledges so made by the people, were re
peated by Governor Curtin to every regiment
before they departed from their homes. They
were encouraged to march forth, by the as
surance that the Government and people in
whose behalf they battled, would never desert
the families made helpless and orphaned by the
absence of their natural protectors. These
pledges have been thus far redeemed by Dau
phin county, and it behooves her representa
tives at this juncture not to listen to the non
sense about the inability of the people to pay a
small additional tax for such a purpose.
A good deal has been said about persons get
ting relief who did not need it, and others suf
fering who would not apply. That some
worthy applicants are envied, is no argument
against fur ,ishing relief to those who are de
serving, and it is the business of the Relief-Com
mittee to see that they pay nothing to those
who are not entitled to it. On the other hand,
those who will not avail themselves of the
fund, have themselves to blame—but we ap
prehend this class is comparatively small.—
There are hundreds who need and deserve assist
ance, and for the wants of these immediate
provision should be made, as they are now
suffering from a stoppage of their customary
supplies.
DISTINOUNRED VIKTOR& —Maj. Gen. Sii.gel ,
of the U . S. Army, passed through here at noon
to-day, via the Pennsylvania and Northern
Central railroads for Washington City. The
distinguished hero attracted much attention.
SPRING Bokturs.—The new style of ladies'
head gear should be called the " battery bon
net." The six large artificial blush roses which
frown so imposingly from beneath the inner
edge, over the forehead, look like a mortar
battery—a perfect rebel killer.

PARIS Lammas describe the freshest "stun
ning" costume of the Empress as of white tulle
trimmed and clouded with diamonds half way
up the skirt ; a waist of sky-blue velvet, blue
velvet bows on the shoulders, ornamented with
agraiffes of diamonds ; a necklace of diamonds
on blue velvet ; a coiffure of blue velvet, with
diamond wheat-ears and back hair fastened
with a diamond comb. Altogether, the effect
is described as dazzling, and we can readily be•
lieve the statement. Eugenie seems to know
only two things—how to be good and how to
dispose of dry-goods and diamonds.
I=l
WEARERS OF LONG BEARDS may take warn
ing by a late accident at the Holyoke Machine
Works', Massachusetts, that the indulgence in
such a luxury may sometimes expose them to
serious danger. Charles Buttrick, an employee
there, had a very long and luxurious beard,
and while grinding spindles for spinning-frames,
a few days ago, had the beard caught by a
swiftly revolving spindle, and his instant death
was only prevented by the whole mass coming
out by the roots I Poor Buttrick, he may "tarry
at Jericho" a long while before his beard grows
again
EIRE LAN NIGHT. —About 12 o'clock last
night, flames were discovered, issuing from a
two-story frame building in Broad street, Sixth
ward, occupied as a school house. The alarm
was quickly given, but owing to the lateness of
the hour and distance, it was some lime before
the fire apparatus of the city were brought to
the ground, and still longer before they could
be of any service, owing to the scarcity of wa
ter, the nearest fire plug being several hundred
yards distant. Under these circumstances, the
fire spread with alatinieg rapidity, and the
building was soon enveloped in flames. When
water was secured, the fireman went to work
with a will and made short work of the flames,
not, however, until the building was burned
almost to a shell.
The building was erected by Wm.K. Verbeke,
Esq., when he laid out that portion of the city,
but was recently sold by him with the lot, up-
on which it was situated for, the sum of $1,200
to Mrs. Mary Bricker, who intended shortly to
have the structure converted into two dwelling
houses. She is secured by insurance. The fire
was evidently the work of an incendiary.
=:=::
ONE'S PLEASURI, after all, is much affected by
the quality of our'a neighbors, even though one
may not be on speaking terms with them. A
pleasant bright face at a window is surely Let
ter than a discontented, cross one ; and a house
that has the air of being inhabited is preferable
to closed shutters and unsocial blinds, excluding
every ray of sunlight and sympathy. We like
to see the glancing, cheerful lights through the
windows of a cold night, or watch them, as
evening deepens, gradually creeping from the
parlor to the upper stories of the houses near
us. We like to watch the little children go in
and out the door, to play, or to school. We
like to see a white-robed baby dancing up and
down at the window in its mother's arms, or
the father reading his newspaper there at eve
ning, or any of these cheerful, impromptu
home glimpses, which, though we are no Paul
Pry, we will assert go to make a pleasant
neighborhood to those who live for comfort,
instead of show. Sad, indeed, some morning,
on walking, it is to see the blinds down and
the shutters closed, and know that death's
agent, while it spared our threshold, has cross
ed that of our cheerful neighbor. Sad to mis■
the white-robed baby from the window, and
see the little coffin at nightfall borne into the
house. Sad to see innocent little faces pressed
at eventide against the window-pane, watching
for the "dear papa" who has gone to his long
home.
Txs Moms or Irrnsausur.—An opinion was de
livered by Judge Bead, of Philadelphia, on the
21st inst., upon a case of unusual novelty. Col.
Francis M. Wynkoop, of Pottsville, who bad
served with distinction in the Pennsylvania re
giments during the Mexican war, accidentally
shot himself in September, 1857, and was bu
ried that same week at Pottsville by his mother,
who resided there, according to his express
wish before marriage. It seems, however, that
after his marriage, he desired his wife, in case
of his decease, to bury him in Mount Laurel
Cemetery, within the limits of Philadelphia.
His wife, at lis death, understanding that
his burial at Pottsville would be but a tempo
rary matter, agreed to his interment there, in
tending subsequently to remove the body to
Laurel Hill, near her place of residence, where
she could frequently visit the grave.
On desiring to do so, permission was refused
by the mother of the deceased, who argued
that he was buried according to his expressed
wish before marriage, that it would be inexpe
dient at that late day to remove his remains,
and that their proper locality was precisely
where they were, in the family burial lot.—
She denied, moreover, having promised to de
liver up the body when required, as asserted by
the wife.
A suit ensued in the Court of Common Pleas
of Schuylkill county. &Inch sympathy was
expressed for the widow of deceased, whose
grief had been lasting and profound, and a de
cision was given is her favor. The mother,
however,considering that the claim of the wife
terminated with death, was persistent in re
taining the body of her son, and carried the
case to the Supreme Coutt, where Judge Read
decided in her favor, as mother and next of kin,
especially as the deceased was buried in cense
consecrated ground, with the ceremonies of the
church,and with the honors of war. The mat
ter is thus settled. The case was knotty, and
much difference of opinion, and much argu
ment, both in and out of court, have long
taken place upon it.
Pettnopluanta Malin elegraph, Cntotiag afternoon, Slap 6, 1862,
Ice CREAM.—Mrs. Sarah Davis, at her old
stand in Walnut street, next door to Dr.
Fager's, will emu up, this evening, a finp
quality of ice cream, and invites her old friends
and patrons to give her a call. v. rs. Davis has
four eons in the war, and deserves the patron
age of the public.
A Naw DISOOVEZY.—The inventor or
.disoov
ertr of any public advantage or convenience, is
a public bene'actor, and deserves well of his
fellow citizens. Mr. W. 11 Amey, of the firm
of Amey & Lemer, daguerrotypist, stated to us
the other day that he had discovered. in the
taking of .likenesses, that no dress goods took
so well as mohair and silk, a new style of dress
goods that is now much in vogue, and can be
purchased at the cheap dry goods house of
Usuca & BOWMAN.
