HARRISBURG PA
Thursday Afternoon, &fly 10, 1861,
PERSONAL.—The person who dropped several
letters, written at Key West, into the Harris
burg Post Office on Tuesday last, will oblige the
recipients of the same, if he will call at the
Post Office this evening.
GRATUYING INTILLIGENCE.—The health of our
city Is rapidly improving, the disease which
excited so much apprehension in our midst for
the last few months having dwindled down to
very few c.asesei."
Wortatatis are now engaged erecting a large
frame,structure on the public grounds in the
rear of the State arsenal, for the purpose of
stowing away the many field pieces now
exposediview in that locality.
Jonas seethe to have played his last card this
morning in the columns of the Patriot and
Union, but it was not of those which be is in
the habit of playing in a certain lager beer
saloon, on the corner of a certain alley, when
the quiet and peace of the Sabbath affords him
the opportunity of visiting that den of iniquity,
as he supposes, unobserved. When will he ask
u 3 to explain ?

M. C. Menem, Eso , of Towanda, visited our
sanctum this morning. Mr. Mercer is among
the meat active and energetic business men in
the comm.lnwealth, yet with all his pressing
engagements, he finds time to devote to the
public interests and further the general wel
fare in the present great crisis. He informs us
that the enthusiasm of the people in his re
gion is unabated, and that the enrolment of
men to fill up Pennsylvania quotas in the offer
of troops by the loyal Governors, is being
pushed forward with great success.
WE agree with an intelligent cotemporary
that to criticise the operations of Generals in
the field and in the face of the enemy has be
come fashionable, and of late many heated dis
cussions have taken place as to the relative
merits of certain high officers, the advocates
of each being stimulated in their appreciation
of their favorite by his being on the same side
in politics. The government wants more men,
and if some of these criticising gentlemen possess
the military qualifications which their language
in condemning certain Generals would indicate,
let them thckle on their swords, raise brigades
or regiments, take the field, and prosecute the
war as, in their judgment, it should be prose
cuted.

south of Baltimore. Rearing a large family,
living to a good old age, and having faithfully

~,,,.....,....
COL. SDOIONS.-Mr. William Garrett, grocer,
corner of State and Second streets, and antler of
the Fifth Pennsylvania Reserve, arrived in
town last evening, direct from the army of
the Potomac. He was present at the first and
second day's fight with the rebels in front of
Richmond, of which he gives a very gra
phic and interesting account. Mr. Garret
brought with him two horses belonging to Col.
Simmons, but can give no intelligence respee
ting the fate of that gallant officer further
than that he was seen to fall from his horse
wounded on one of the two last days of the
battle, and was carried to one of the hospitals
where he most probably fell Into the hands of
the rebels. There is reason to believe, there
fore, that he is yet living.
Mr. Garrett fortunately lqst none of his stores
during the retreat of the right wing of our army
to the James River,and will ratan- Shortly to the
seat of war. Col. [Simmons' horses are for the
present quartered in Colder's stables, River
alley, and attract many visitors. One of them
is a full blooded animal purchased ia Ken—
tucky at a cost of $250, and made a present
to the Colonel by the men of his regiment.
Since writing the above account, we have
received by Lieutenant Bogle, of Milton, Ps.,
the most cheering news of the safety of
Colonel Simmons and Captain Taggart, of the
Fifth Reserve, who have both been reported
dead. Lieutenant Bogie's statement Is to the
following effect: He was at %treed Monroe
yesterday afternoon, and while there met Dr.
McKennan, of the Pennsylvania Sanitary Com
mission, who informed him that Colonel Sim
mons and CUpgain Ibex/art were alive and in the
hands of the enemy.
Tae "Siouan" on Ridge Road, previously
noticed in , the TELEasern, grows no better very
fast. A wagon got stunk in the rand yesterday
and for ought we know is there yet. Why
can't the place be put in order?
TEE KEPNILIt Fationass.—We learn by a pri
vate letter that the Kepner Fencibles of our
city distinguished themselves in the recent
bloody battles before Richmond. So far as we
can learn, only one of the company, private
Robert Simpson, was killed. The Captain,
however, and a number of privates were seri
ously wounded.
ACCEDE:VT.-00 last Monday, Mr. Joseph
Randels, of Middletown, had one of his legs
broken by being thrown off a horse. It ap
pears that he was driving Mr. Jas. Young's
team, in a hay field ; the horses by some means
become frightened, and ran off, when Mr. R.
was thrown op the ground and tramped upon
by the saddle horse, breaking one of his legs
and otherwise injuring him.
Navel, Ina&.—The American Tract Society of
Boston have adopted a novel way of putting
Scripture truth before the wounded and sick
soldiers. A large number of handkerchiefs
having been sent to the Tract House, they have
caused to be printed upon them such texts as
the following : "Come unto me all ye that la
bor and are heavy laden, and I will give you
rest."
-,..----
Tae &moans and teachers of the Methodist
Episcopal Sunday-school left town in a special
train on the Lebanon Valley railroad at eight
o'clock this morning, on a pie nic excursion to
Derry Church, near Hummelstown. The party
numbered about one hundred and fifty, and as
the gay and happy lads and lasses marched in
procession from the church, in Locust street,
to the depot, they attracted much attention.—
The excursionists will return about 7 o'clock
this evening
=I
NUMERICAL RATIO OF COMMON Naas.—What
the numerical ratio of the most common names
is to each other and to the whole lot has never
been settled in this country. English statis
tics, however, are more complete, and give the
following facts : Of the entire populatiun,
they have onelmith in 73 ; one Jones in 76 ;
one Williams in a 117 ; one Taylor 148 ; one
Davy in 162 ; one Brown 174. If Brown don't
like that, we can inform him that his initial B,
commences more names than any other letter
in the alphabet.
LOOK TO Yona Cmans.—ln building a house,
have a single fine in each chimney running to
the cellar, so that every time a door or window
is opened a draft of air will be always passing
from the cellar floor, and left open at all times ;
this will continuously change the air of the
cellar, and' secure better conditions for health.
It is useless to recommend the frequent white
washing of cellars, cleaning, etc. Cleanly per
sons will attend to this as to every other
part of the house. Let all at least secure the
draft in the manner we have suggested, and
much will be done to secure dry and clean cel
lars.
I=
_SOLICITY OF CHANGE.-WO observe by our ex
changes that the want of change for the fraction=
al part of a dollar is as severely felt in other
cities as here. The retail dealers find it a source
of great annoyance, as nearly every customer
has a bill to change. They are thus compel led
to forgo many sales, or purchase silver at a
premium of eight per cent. Serious as the dif
ficulty is, our business men are bearing with it,
In hopes of better times hereafter. No person
should unnecessarily hard his silver change,
thus adding to the general scarcity, but all
should pay out what they receive and thus add
to the general amount in circulation.
lisiarrY has three stages—the coy, the digni
fled and the intellectual. The first exists until
about twenty, the second until twenty-five, and
the last until beauty has made itself wings and
flown away. It is in this last stage that women
wear spectacles. The symptoms of spectacles
begin at an early age. The young Miss has a
primness, a staidness and a miniature severity
of aspect at variance from her years. They
never seem young ; there is a freshness of
heart in them: they become women faster than
other girls, and become 'old hudeirAan other
women ; they are remarkable for thin lips,
sharp noses, and white, artificial teeth. They
are walking strictures upon human life—bleak
visions of philosophy is petticoats—daughters,
not it would seem of love, but of Fellows of
the Royal Society I They are fond of phrenol
ogy and meetings of scientific associations.—
They like a good pew in church, and write
long letters to their unfortunate " friends in
the country." They are generally spinsters,'
or, if married, motherless. No young wife
with "six small children" ever wore specta
cles. They go a good deal into company,
where they are seen seated on sofas talking to
ladies older than themselves, or turning over
the leaves of a book, and with interesting ab
straction poring over it. They dance quadrilles,
but never waltz. Heaven and earth! think of
a pair of spectacles whirling in a waltz. They
have a genius for the "scholastic profession,"
and frequently exercise it as amateurs ; "never
eat suppers," and are, many of them, members
of a Horticultural Society.
The lady with the spectacles! Half a cen
tury ago this would have been understood to
refer to some one stricken in years, but now-a
days infirmity of sight has been raised to the
rank of a charm. The moment spectacles be;
come really useful they are abandoned ; it is
the harmonious combination of youth and
short-sightedness which gives beauty to the
guise. Intense interest is expected to be felt
towards her who, still young and lovely, aban
dons the frivolities of her sex for the calm se
cluded pleasures of intellect. This is the point
our heroines aim it. But we have done with
them. They may be very good in their way,
but their ways are not as our ways. Flirts, co
quettes, prudes and a host of other orders into
which the sex are classified, have their failings,
but they, at least, are women ; while the "lady
with the spectacles" seems hardly a daughtts.

modern science, and patronise the house of

LARGE YIELD OF . HONEY. —The Journal of
Middletown says that a few days since Mr. J.
Rohrer, of that borough, took forty pounds of
honey from one of his bee hives.
MYILk PARIUNTER, a young girl of thirteen,
fell into the water near New Haven, a few days
ago, and was drowned, while engaged in the
loving work of pulling flowers to decorate ner
father's grave! Poor girl !—a sad fate and a
singular coincidence.
Party Wwar , lansam.—lt mast be very hot

negrO- bny injudiciously! leaned •Up'against the
sunny side of a house, and fall asleep. In a
few minutes he began to'soffin, and in three,
quarter's of an hour he all over. the yard.
His mother dipped him up and put him bra
wash tub, and he has been greasy ever since.
Fax.—The alarm of fire about 6 o'clock last
evening, was occasioned by, the burning of.s'
bed at the residence of Mr. Freiley, 'corner of
State and Sixth streets, set on fire,it is said by
by the careless use of matchesin the hands of
children. The fire apperatus were in motion,
but the flames were extinguished before they'
were put in service. There was no damage
done to the building.
Box RAN Ovsa..—Daring the alarm of fire
last evening, a son of Mr. Thomas Berry resid
ing in Liberty street, west of Second, while
crossing Third street above Walnut; 'Jives • ran
over by an approaching wagon drawn by two
horses, and had one of his jaws broken, besides
receiving some internal injuries, the nature of
which is not stated. The lad was immediately
carried to the residence of his parentis, where
he received prOmpt medical attentiOn'and is
now doing well.
FAST Darma.—Notwithstanding the*umer
ous instances of parties being arreitedT and
fined by the Mayor for'fast and reckless dtiving
in our streets, there are still a number of the
b'hoys, owners of fast nage, who continue .'to
indulge in the reprehensible practice, apparent
ly regardless of all consequences. There is one
individual, in particular, a business man In
Market Square, who seems to be particularly
fond of driving a fast team, and never fails to
whip his animal up to the required scratch
when-on the road, to the great prejudice•of the
lives and limbs of unwary predestrians. He
should be looked after.
HaayssT Rpm —During the latter part of
July 1861, theAtmers of Dauphin county, in
connection:Or of the citizens of
Middletown.‘and -- Harrisburg, • held a grand
"Harvest HO : Me" pic-nic, at Derry Church. It
was then resolved, that the next annual
celebration be held in Fisher's woods at Mid
dletown. There is not a more pleasant place
to be found for holding a celebration of this'
kind, than the one selected, and we trust far
mers and others, will make the necessary ar
arrangemen's for the occasion, and designate
the day,so that it maybe made known through
out the county.
THA SICK AND WOUNDID SOLDIERS. —We wish
to call the attention of our readers to the im
mense numbes of sick and wounded soldiers in
o , °spite* and tti the increased necessity ar
, .from for hospital stores to supply
•
Since the recent bloody battles
be . Vo, mond the number has become so
greit . I ,:% . the Government, though doing all
it can, ~nut necessarily depend upon private
enterprise for assistance. We are sure that
nothing more is necessary than simply to make
the fact known fo' call- birth the liberality of
the people. Our county has already done much,
but when almost every family in it has some
relative or friend lying sick or wo nded, we
are sure they will at once respond liberally to
the petition of the sick and suffering. If each
township would form a committee to go among
their neighbors, large supplies could speedily
be sent. Quite a variety of necessaries, in the
way of hospital clothing, pillows, sheets &c.,
together with delicacies, are wanted, so that
there is scarcely any one who cannot furnish
something, even though he is not prepared to
give money. We hope an effort will be made
at once, and that it be not neglected. Let every
one feel that ha is petsonally interested, and
not depend on some one who way be supposed
to havp more interest or be better suited in
time or circumstances to attend to it.
A MODia. Esramasnxtorr —Among the many
improvements lately made in our city, to which
we can point with pride as an evidence of pros
perity and as a determination on the part of
our business men, no longer to remain behind
the " light house," is the completion of Eby
& Kunkle's large brick building at the corner
of Market and Fifth streets, which is alike
creditable to the owners and ornamental to that
part of our city.
The building is not only one of the largest,
devoted to the grocery business, outside of New
York, but the stock ch dlenges competion.—
Without going into detail, we may safely say
that the firm keep on hand everything usually
kept in a grocery store, (liquors excepted,) and
that they sell at very small profits. Their
clerks are civil and accommodating, and have
strict instructions timid no, circumstances what
ever to misrepresent or take advantage of any
customer. A general invitation is extended to
the public to visit the new building and exam
ine the extensive stock, whether they purchase
or not.
