TAKES CHARGH OW CAMP CUlLTlN.—Captain
Dodge has appointed Capt. W. A. Tarbntton,
to take charge of Camp Curtin and superintend
the drilling of troops as soon as they arrive.—
The Captain is a good officer and will discharge
his drity faithfully.
Erraeor from the minutes of the last meet
ing of the Hope Fire Company, No. 2. On
motion, it was
Resolved, That the thanks of this company
be tendered to Mr. H. C. Shaeffer for the very
beautiful gift of wall paper which now adorns
our hall, and that this company assures him
that it fully appreciates the generosity which
prompted the donation of so elegant a present.

as these change their appearance in head-gear

their threats and impudence to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Prsp.—On Saturday night, Mrs. Miles, who
was recently so severely burned by the ezplo
slop of a coal ,oil lamp, in a canal boat, near
Middletown. this county, died from the effects
of her injuries, after suffering the most intense
bodily pain, for a few weeks. The deceased is
the same la ly who—just previous to being
burned—narrowly escaped being drowned,
which we noticed at the time. Her remains
were conveyed to the Pennsylvania railroad on
Monday at noon, followed by a large number
pf Our citizens ; thence taken to her home,
near Pine Grove. Her child, which was also
horribly burned at the same,'.is on a fair way to
recover.
PIO-M0 FOR THE - BENEFIT OF THE FA/MIES OF
Vor.PMElDS.—gwing to the inauspicious State of
the weather, the picnic for the benefit of the
families of our gallant volunteers advertised
to come off to-day in Haehnlen's woods, has
been postponed until next Monday. This ex
tension of time will enable the enterprising
gentleman who have undertaken the manage
ment of affairs to make additional arrange.
ments for the accommodation of the large
crowd of citizens. expected to be present and
participate in the festivities of the occasion.
From what we know, the picnic promises to
be one of the most pleasant parties of the sea
son, and will be largely attended by the fair
sex, who are ever among the first to promote
any patriotic object. An excellent string band
of music will be present. _ There will liCclieme
edibh s and drinhablesi swings; ropes for Copen
hagen, foot-balls and other facilitit s to enable
the participants to pass a day of unalloyed
pleasure. Tickets twenty five cents.
GIROUX Eostoots.—Our Goinan Citizens and ,
their Relation to the Intelligence and Prosperity of this
City.—One of the boasts—if not the proudest=
of all Pennsylvanians, is our system of common
schools, so munificently supported at the public
expense, and so suecessfnlly conducted by men
of zeal, ability and character. The public
schools of Pennsylvania are among the strong
est bulwarks of the liberties of the people, as
their influence produces the most good, and
contributes largest to the prosperity of the state
in all its branches of intinstry and elements
pf enterprise. To writing this much of
our public school system, we are natur
ally brought in contact with the source
whence • they derive their support. And
while thus broug'ht in contact with that source,
we are led to the inquiry as to whether the ben
efits are equally distributed among those thus
equally contributing to the maintenance of the
common school system. In the English
branches of education, our public schools leave
no feature neglected. In this respect the
teaching is thorough and complete, so that a
pupil passing through all the grades of the pub
lic schools can graduate on an education in
the English branches, with mathematics and
composition added, as thoroughly accomplished
as if he derived his tutorage in the highest
academies of the land. Thisdact, then is our
boast, and may its glory never fade. But
'while we are thus expanding and extending the'
English education of our children, we should
not forget that there is some consideration due
to a large, wealthy and influential class of peo
ple who contribute equally to the support of
our public schools, and who therefore have
some right to their benefits. We allude to the
native and adopted Germans. The German
language will never be givenup—it is as much
the language of our business, our politico aril
our history in Pennsylvania, as Is the English,
so that whenever it is neglected, we neglect
also these important elements. What is
needed to encourage improvement in this re
spect, and to do justice to the German portion
of our population, is at once plain and practical.
If the different school hoards cannot establish
exclusive German schools, they can at least
connect tir study of German with the teaching
of the English. Thoie of our citizens who de
'ire to educate their children in the German
language, would thus be receiving in return for
the taxation so cheerfully paid in support of the
chool system, the benefits which are derived
from the same system by all other classes of
the people.
We understand that petitions are in circula
tion praying for the establishment 01 German
schools or the introduction of German studies
in the schools already established, and that this
subject will be properly brought before the
Board of Comptrollers. It has our hearty en
dorsement, and we trust that it will be con
sidered with the favor that its importance de-
AT TAB BALTIMORB HOSPITAL.—H. H. Len
Bart, company B, 87th Pennsylvania regiment,
is lying at the Military Hospital in BaHim° , e.
He had the typhoid fever, but recovered, and
is now suffering from some internal disease,
not stated. He resides in Susquebannab town
ship, in this county.
Wm. Bremer, of the same regiment, has re
cently been discharged from the same hospital
and the service, owing to disability. He is
from this city, and is reported on his way home.
I==
Tam Bou FlRM—Grand Vocal and Inslru
mental.—We understand that arrangements are
being made among a number of our musical
artists and amateurs, for a grand vocal and in.
strumental concert, the proceeds of which are
to be applied to the bounty fund for volunteers.
The affair will be gotten up on a monster scale,
and the performers will embrace the best musi
cal talent in the city, probably assisted by some
distinguished performers from a distance Due
notice will be given of the arrangements and
the place of the proposed concert.
Aartzsr OF A BOHOL AR. —A colored man
named Wm. Holmes, said to be a barber by
profession, was arrested in this city, yesterday,
by OfficerCtunpbell, charged with having par
ticipated in the robbery of a clothing store at
Carlisle last Sunday night. He was wearing a
suite of the stolen clothes at the time of his
arrest, and a pair of boots and pantaloons
stolen from an officer at the Carlisle barracks,
were found in his possession. He was confined
in the_ I._k-n. over night, and left this
- -
morning for Carlisle h the custott of o ice
officer Martin, of that borough.
=Cl=
Cm. Hoax.—We have been kindly furnish
ed with a copy of the following letter in rela
tion to Capt. Hons., of the "Kepner Fencibles"
of this city:
Hon. Wm. Ff. Kama, fs with plea
sure that I can inform you that my brother
Thomas David Rom is sill alive. He com
manded the Kepner Fencibles, of Harrisburg,
or the company now called company D,' 12th
regiment, P. B. V. C., Col. Taggart command
I seen a statement in the Inquirer, of Phila
delphia, sent to you by Lieutenant Weaver.
He stated that David Horn was from Burling
ton, New Jersey. His father and mother resi
ded there, but he lived with me at 783 Ger
mantown road, Nineteenth ward, Philadelphia.
I have received information of him from Brig
adier General Seymore, commanding Third
Brigade, P. R. F. C., McCall'a Division, and
he informed me that he was wounded in the
back and also is the leg, and carried of the bat
tle-field to the hospital on the 30th of June,
at the battle of White Oak swamps, and there
he was left. The Surgeon of the Division
said he did not think he would live. Still
later I received a letter from him dated July
13, 1862, a prisoner at Richmond, and still
later that he was released on the 18th inst., and
sent North, were he arrived at Baltimore. I
cannot tell if they they will be sent North.
The camp was not disgraced by their Captain
on the battle field of the 30th of June, or at
the battle of Draiosville, when he was ser
geant and led his company in the charge. He
is not a Jerseyman but a Philadelphian. He is
a carpenter by trade and was driven out of
Richmond just before the war broke out, and
had to leave his tools behind. You will see
by the list of wounded prisoners released from
Richmond, that he is paroled with them.
He says his wound is very painful. I may
give you more particulars when I hear from
ntm again.
Yours vers. reepectlally,

No. 783, Germantown Road, Philadelphia.
To His Honor, W. g. REPNEits of Harrisburg

POSTAGE &AWE' USED HOE SEAM, CHANGE.-
Many of our business men have purchased pos
tage stamps and are paying them out instead
of small change. This may answer the desired
purpose so long as they are kept clean and are
not pasted op other paper, but whenever they
are defaced or soiled they become at once
worthless; they cannot be exchanged, redeem
ed or even used on letters. Postmasters are
strictly forbidden to recognize defaced stamps
on mail letters with a stamp that from appear
ances has been need before. AU such letters
thrown in the Post Office are held for postage,
and the person for whom they are intended is
informed of the fact that a letter is in the of
fice for him, which wilt be forwarded on the
receipt of a regular stamp.
It Is very doubtful whether the Secretary of
the Treasury will avail himself of the power
vested in him to issue postage stamps as cur
rency; but if he does, the stamps will be entire
ly different from those used on letters. They
will be printed on different paper, and the Post
Office Department will have nothing to do with
their issue. We append a full official explana
tion of the law as recently passed, so that per
sons may not plead ignorance of the law itself,
which we published in full a few days since :
"Under the provisions of the act, the Sacra
-1 tary of the Treasury and not the Postmaster
General, is directed to furnish postage and
other stamps to the Assistant Treasttrers, and
such designated depositaries of the United
States as the former may select, to be exchang
ed by them on application for the United States
notes, and from and after the first day of Au
gust next, such stamps shall be received in pay
ment of all dues to the United States less than
five dollars and shall be received in exchange
for United States notes, when presented in
sums not less than five dollars, to any Assist
ant Treasurer or designated depositary selected
as aforesaid. Hence the law does not make
postage stamps a legal tender nor does it require
Postmasters to receive them in exchange for
United States motes. It is expected that the
Secretary of the Treasury will furnish postage
stamps to be used as a circulating medium un
der the law, in such form that they cannot be
attached to letters or other mailable matter.
Such stamps will be exchanged by Postmas
ters for the regular postage stamps, besides
being redeemable in treasury notes by the As
sistant Treasurers and such designated deposi
taries as the Secretary of the Treasury may
select. No postage stamps can be thus ex
changed at the poet offices or redeemed by the
Treasury Department unless furnished through
the agencies of that Department. Postage
stamps now sold by the Postmasters are not ex
changeable or redeemable bithem, and if such
stamps are gummed to pasteboard or other pa
per, which soils or renderti them unfit to be
used on the prepayment of postage, they will
be rejected for postage, because when so soiled
they cannot be distinguished from stamps
which have already been used for postage.
The postage stamp currency law does not
take effect till. the Ist of August. It is under
stood that the postage stamps will in no ameba
redeemed by the Post Of f ice Department or
Treasury Department, if so changed or altered
by pasting on other paper or otherwise, as to
render them unfit for postage uses. This is ab
solutely necessary to prevent frauds. Already
defaced postage stamps are being brought up
and passed at their nominal value, after having
had the defacing ink extracted and being past
ed on paper to conceal the loss of gum.

THa FIGHT AT TOHIiKINSVILLI —Stalenteat of a
Berrisburger. —We previously announced the
arrival in this city of Mr. Geo.W. Leamy, of Ike
Lochiel Cavalry, who was captured by the re
beim at the fight at Tompkinsville, Bentucky,,
and parolled. Mr. Leamy has since called up
on us, and gave us a very graphic description
of that engagement.
He says that Major Jordan, of this city was.
in command of a battalion of the Lochiel cav
alry, consisting of companies E, 0, I and M,
encamped near Tompkinsville, Kentucky. At
half put five o'clock on the morning of the
9th July, the pickets were driven into camp,
by a rebel force under Colonels Morgan and
Hunt reported at 1,500 strong and two pieces.
of 'cannon.. Major erica . gave the
command to "saddle horses," and diew up his
men in line of battle. , A portion of the enemy
under Morgan,. consisting of fosr,yegiments of
mounted'intintrY, 'nemir ,. ., , epriciaiiii,eind after
dismounting, opened fire upon our men, aim
ing,,.however,' too low -to be effective. The
Lochiel boys returned the fire with pistols and
carbines,. but with what effect is not known.----
The firing between the parties continued with
much spirit for fifteen or twenty minutes, when
the enem v commenced - throling shell from
their cannon. At thisjuncture, seeing that his
force would be:vverposiered, Major Jordan
gave the command to retreat, which was
done in good order in the direction of a
rough piece of woods, where they were intercep
ted by another large force of rebel infantry. A
brief though spirited action ensued, our boys
-7, i timkat . CY !.
into the main road, where they were overtaken
by a body of Texan Rangers six hundred strong.
Nothing daunted, however, this 'additional force
was also engaged, and' running light of !ix or
seven miles ensued, resulting in the death, of a
number of the rebels and our own force, inclu
ding Lieut. Sullivan, of this city. It was during
this running fight that Maj. Jordan was made
prisoner, caused by his hottie stumbling. A num
ber of ethers, innludins Mr. Leamy, were also
captured by having. their horses shot under
them.
While in pursuit of our boys along this road,
a body of the rebels stopped at a house and
called for e,me water, when a young lady, a
Miss Stevens took water out to them. They
asked her if she had seen any Lincolnites pass
there. She told them no, but she bad seen some
Union men pass there. •The rebels then asked
where they were. She said she did not know,
and if she did, she would not tell them. One of
the party then shot her in the stomach with
seven buckshot, setting her apron on fire. She
lived until Sunday morning and expired.
The loss on the Union side in the fight was
four killed, six wounded, and nineteen
,prison
ers: Ike prisoners, - with the exception of Maj.
Jordan, were paroled. He was sent back to
Tennessee. The rebel loss, according to the best
information gained, was ten killed, and it is
not known how many wounded. gal. Hunt was
mortally wounded, it is thought. The rebels
burned all the wagons, tents, commissary stores,
&c., and left for Glasgow, Ky.
The rebels took all the good horses they
could get in the country, and broke open the
stores in Tompkinsville, taking the goods and
Bonding a great many of them to Tennessee.
Mr. lkeacey apeahe very highly of the energy
and bravery displayed by Major Jordan on the
occasion.
The following is a list of the contributions
made by the citizens of Harrisburg towards the
bounty fund for volunteers. We will add other
contributions to the list as they are received
