The refreshment will be under the immediate superin :-Dleace of a committee of the company, who , Il ,ee that the privileges are not improperly. tzed.

INP.ITA NT Bnit—The Afilitfa for nine and twelve —A bill passed Congress on the last day session, and has been signed by the Pres :it calling all the militia into the field to • •w u the rebellion. 11 is doubly import •ruul the fact that all slaves, after its pas who come within the 'lines of our army, made free forever. tirst section provides, that whenever the • • •i•nt shall call forth the militia of the ' he may specify in hie call the period for such service will be required, not ex ',lll.g nine months ; and the militia so mus ter,,tiu shall continue to serve for the term KPrkihox, „ bless sooner discharged.

Vicataircs Cowtorrsm.—We see by the Cin cinnati Ames, that a meeting of the merchants lof that city has been held, the object of which isto take into consideration the condition of the city, and the probable appointment of a Vigilance Committee. This is a movement in the right direction, and one that should be fol lowed by every city, county, town, and town ship in the loyal States. ..---....--. A NOM% WOlLUL—Morgan Barclay, son of Dr. J. B. Barclay, of Brownsville, Fayette county, a member of company 0, Eighth regi ment, Pennsylvania Reserves, was killed by a ball through the heart, in one of the late series of battles before Richmond. On receiving the sad tidings of his death, and learning that he died as only die the gallant and the brave, fighting for his country, the noble mother ex claimed, "It is well, and I only regret that I have not another to send in his place"—a senti ment worthy the matrons of the best days of Sparta and of Rome. A Snowx CROP OP Oars.—A NEW ENEMY.- It is feared that the growing oats in - York coun ty has been singled out, by an enemy which will commit incalculable damage. The Penn sylvanian of York borough says " a small red wevll finds its way up the stem, and assumes a position at the point where the grain connects with the straw. Frequently two or more of these' insects lodge upon a single grain of oats, Where they remain and suck the nourishment required to mature the crop, until they are transformed into diminutive flying insects.— The nourishment thus exhausted, in many in stances the green oats fall to the earth. We have seen a stalk of oats which contained from forty to fifty of these wevils, a few having changed to the fly state. Nearly every grain had one or two representatives ; and a number of seeds had fallen off. In looking over a field of this crop, an alarming sight is presented. If this insect proves injurious in proportion to its numbers, in a few years the cultivation of oats in this country will be limited." The Klemm Fssonnss--The Casualties . —First Lieutenant Wm. H. Weaver, at present in command of the "Kepner Fencible's," has sent to Mayor Kepner, of this city, the following let ter: CAMP NEAR HARBISON'S LANDING, 1 July 9, 1862. Hon. Wm. H.

GPM Us ALL THE INFORMATION YOU HAVE.— We shall be thankful to those of our readers and others in this and the adjoining counties, who have friends in the army, if they will com municate to us such information as they may receive in private letters from them, touching the killed, wounded, missing, and condition of those of their companions in arms whose fate may have come to their knowledge. Every surviving soldier has some "at home," to whom he is very apt to write his own ac count of the tattle in which he may have been engaged, and will be quite sure to speak of the casualties that occurred in his own company, and under his own eye. Hence, these accounts, if allowed to be published, will convey much valuable information to many who a'a deeply and intensely•interested in the fate of their friends in the army. We assure those who may entrust us with such letters, that no private or family matters will be either published or di vulged ; but such brief extracts taken from the war accounts they may contain, as will be likelp to prove of interest to others, and the letters returned, if requested. Nor ALL Loss.—While it is excessively an noying to have so much trouble in getting small change, it is by no means all loss to the general public. One begins to find out the truth of the old maxim, "Take care of the pence and the pounds (or dollars) will take care of themselves." In nine cases out of ten, it is prooeble that you cannot buy if you cannot pay the cash 'down; hence, while sellers refuse to' part with 'specie, a man may now a days walk the streets free from thetemptations to in vest quarters, dimes, or half dimes on candies, nuts, sods water, lager, and a host of similar indulgences. Yon are rich, you know; for there coiled np in your pocket book, is the "V" or the "X." Here is item number one. On the other hand, you are as poor as poverty ; for on going to purchase, you find yourself with " nary red," and obliged to economise nolens, So km Bo the paper remains -day after day, unless you are dunned for sums amounting to one dollar or more, in which case its new own• er will probably consent to part with a few shiners. We have little doubt that, owing to the spe cie panic, the great consuming public—the pat rons of restaurants and boot-blacks, the chew ers of peanuts and candies, the imbibers of whiskey, beer and soda water, have found themselves richer at Saturday night than they would otherwise have been. Their expendi ttures have diminished, and their net profile rather increased than fallen off. This may have been, it is true, at some self-denial, but what Of that ? The dollars have taken care of them selves, as the owners of the pence, afraid of never being able to see any more, have exude ed a strict vigilance over the silver and nickels. di we can at bast console ourselves with the totion that in this case, as in many others, INA* 100-ilthint En= WWI profit. Verntovliantit iteletraptr,'Zititrtroi Afternoon, Jule 19, 1662 BOUNTY TO Voranassas.—The council of the borough of York has appropriated the sum of $2,500, or so much of it as may be necessary, for the purpose of giving an extra oounty of twenty-five dollars to each man in the borough and vicinity who may volunteer, be accepted and mustered into the service of his country as a private or non commissioned officer. The council has also requested the County Commis sioners to adopt a similar course in the country. This action shows that the Yorkers are gov erned by a patriotic body of " fathers," who are fully up to the demands of the crisis. What will our city fathers do in the promisee.? THE SICK AND WOUNDED tiOLDIERN IN CHURCH. —We stated on Tiniedly last that a large num ber of the sick and wounded soldiers inthe hospitals:' at Casio IlurtiO'; able - to be moved had been conveyed to and from the Metho dist Episcopal Church, last sabbath by sev eral patriotic and benevolent members of that congregation, who had provided omnibuses for. the purpose. We learned this morning from ladies attached to the .Methodist congregation, that such was not the fact, the'soldiers having raised a collection among themselves and paid for their own conveyance to and from the ourch. It is due to the soldiers that we make this correction, as an evidence that while they have voluntary devoted their lives in , de fence of their country, they have not been un mindful of the duties they owe to the great Author of their existence. Entertaining these views, these gallant men should be encouraged by our religious community, and so far- from being compelled. lo bear the expensesTif trans portation between the camp and this city, while attending Divine worship, the several congregations should provide the necessary omnibuses. We have no doubt that under these circumstances our livery men would be willing to make a liberal. reduction from their usual charges for the 'vehicles needed for the occasion, STRAY= Awax.—Yesterday afternoon, about four o'clock, from the residence of his parents, in West Harrisburg, George W. Shultz, a boy of about eleven years of age. He had on when he left gray Kentucky jean pantaloons, white shirt, and slouch hat, and was barefooted. Any information relative to the boy. will be thank fully received by his parents. ito GEORGE SHULTZ. • A MODE Euranuerosierr.—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 Menges 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 under 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.
