What a pity that a young man, the hope of .his coun ts?, the darling of his parents, should be snatched from all prospects and enjoyments or lifb, by the cOnsequence of deviating from the path of nature and indulging in a certain secret habit. Such persons Nun, before contem plating reflect that a sound mind and be y are the most neces sary requisites to promote connubial happiness.

Frairni , through their Chairnisn, repotted the following preamble and resolutions which were linani monsly adopted : : WHEBRAII, Our country le,riow engaged in a mighty struggle to preserve their very Oc tanes as a nation ; and whereas, It Womes all loyal citizens to meet together and declare their sentiments of ,devotion tai the Govern ment under which they live and thrbugh which they receive so many benefits'and blessings, and oppose that treason_ which is now seeking, with satanic majesty, to match from us the priceless inheritance of our *ors and whereas, The Governor 'of the - Commonwealth has issued- his prochtamtiont upon the citizens of our State to rill/ to . ' the support of the Government, and aid in Itir- Dishing men and means to carry on the , war ; therefore be it Resolved, That we the citizens of the beronxii of Dauphin and Middle Paxton townshiti, in mass meeting assembled, do, hereby. de lire our unalterable attachment to the •Tlnicin of these States, framed by the wisdom of 'our fathers, under which we as a peopleXave risen togreat nem and glory, challenging' tlfe admiratkin of the world, and that while we love our State and desire her honor and advancement, and are jealous of all her rights undertheenestithtion, yet far above all these coniparatively trifling considerations, towers our lave for our country. —our undivided country ; and to it, and it alone, we swear eternal allegiance. - Resolved, That we will .. slipprirt the , gover n-. meat in the prosecution of this ,War agalitsit armed treason, with all the ineandirour power,, even with our life's blood if necessary ; bellev-, ing that if our national fabric is &Skived; all the bright visions of happiness and prospuity, which we have been tiring up for ourBelves and our children in tin future, will -be iititia lesaly dispelled, and the sun of the, word'fifreL dom will forever set in clouds of anarchy and ruin. Rasokvd, That now I the, tnne o,t mit!, icKnuk., .try's greatest need, andlbat our people respond promptly to her call and her brave ar mies are speedily reinforced, we may soon ex= pent to hear the tramp of advancing rebel hordes on northern soil, and see our fertile fields laid waste, our cities and towns destroyed, our wives and children maltreated and all the horrors and miseries of a bloody War, brought to our very, doors. Readved, That we will contribute of oar means as far as we are able, to swell the amount of funds which are now being raised throughout the State, for the purpose of furnishing our quota of troops, so that the hands of our gov ernment may be strengthened and the war pros ecuted with vigor, until all our enemies are subdued and the flagi of the Union once more floats over every foot of soil that rightfully.be longs to her. Resolved, That to carry out these purposes and resolves, a committee of, six be appointed to draw up a psper to be prisented to every citizen of the borough and township for his signature, so that all may have an opportunity to contribute, and may not be behind our neigh hors in our zeal for the welfare of our councry. Six hundred and sixty-five dollars was sub scribed on the spot, and a committee appointed to canvass the township for contributions. The following resolution was adopted Resolved, That in the opinion of this meeting, the commissioners of Dauphin county should appropriate twenty-five thousand dollars, to pay the bounty offered to recruits. After several addresses by gentlemen present, and some patriotic songs by the ladies, the meeting adjourned. From oar Williamsport Correspondent. W=CEIPORT, August 1, 1862 ENTHUSIAf3IIO WAR IiREn4G.

Speeches were made by our pro minent citizens ' and Col. Campbell, of the b7th P. V., and Rev. Mr. Mann. The greatest unity ever known here pre vailed. All party questions or issues appeared to be forgotten, in the infinitely vital question of life or death of the nation.ll "Let us fight the rebels first, and each other afterwards,' would, in brief, express the feeling of the meeting. I herewith enclose a copy of the resolutions passed. Resolved, That the county commissioners be requested to issue immediately the bonds of the county for the sum of $15,000, and such furthersum,as may be necessary, and that out of the money thus raised they shall pay , to each citizen of Lycoming county who shall en list for three years or during the war the sum of $5O, and who enlist for nine or twelve months, s2s—and if the war shall end in nine. or twelve months the farther sum of s2s.shall be paid for those enlisting for the shorter period. x.

About twelve o'clock last night the rebels opened from the opposite side of the river with two batteries of light artillery. Their fire was principally directed to the mail boat landing at the headquarters of Col Ingalls, and the shipping and encampments at Pestover. Their pieces were handled well and tired with great rapidity. Few men were killed and some five :or six wounded; Several horses- also were killed. The enemy , had it all their own way for some time as our troops were not anticipating an at tack, but the thirty-two pounders stationed close to Col. Ingall's head-quarters soon silenced their guns. After they opened, a few of the vessels were struck, but no serious damage was sustained by any- of them. With this exception nothing has occurred worth mentioning. BAIIMORX, Aug. 1. A private letter received this morning ,from Fortress Monroe, written last evening, says: An attack or a move is hourly expected by Gen. M'Clellan's army, and considerable excite ment prevails.there, as they are hourly expect ing the "New gerrimao" down the river with her satelities, and our gunboats have gone up the river beyond and out of sight of Harrison's Landing. They are also expecting an attack may be made on , their front at the sane time.

This is a good movement, miriade hoped t ," a thorough compliauce will be observed, so as to insure the health of the place. .rwrym . a.mortar Fleet, which has 're stiergised service on the Lower Missis sippi, arrived here last evening. The rebels last eveuiug attempted to capture another another schooner which was anchored above Harrison's Landing, but they were toiled in their attempt. They came over in two boats from the opposite shore and being discovered were fired upon, when they beat a hasty retreat, tiring some half dozen shots at the schooner. What effect was bad upon the rebels by our tiring is not known. • The rebel gunboat New Merrimac is daily ex pected down the river from Richmond. A Mr. Dolan, recently returned from Rich mond, gives the following account of the new Merrimac, building at that place : Sunday three weeks I was on board the Mer rimac, being anxious to get a look at her be fore I came away. She is a very forMidable vessel, constructed with much skill.• Her woodwork was then finished. On the follow ing day slue was taken across the river to the 'Predegar Works to have her plating put on. The plates are about ten feet long, and ten inches in width. They are punched entirely through with holes for the insertion of the bolts, and will overlap one another when in position. Like Merrimac No. 1 she is a formidable ram, but is somewhat smaller than the great original, which, in every other , respect, she greatly resembles. Her roof runs up to a peak; of such a height that the sides rise at a sharp angle. When roofed, and her machinery put in, her guards will probably not be over one foot above the water. Being much smaller, she will be far more manageable than Merri mac the First. Her guards were about six feet above the water's edge. The rrm was well beaked, reaching about four feet above the deck, and extending out six or eight feet. Although her armament was of course not yet on board, its character was no secret. The entire public have access to the vessel, it was easy to be seen what number of guns she was to carry, as well as their approximate charac ter. From other information, however, I can state that she will carry one bow, the stern, and three side guns. They are to be of the same description as those which are mounted at Fort Darling, their ability to pierce our iron armored vessels, having, in the attack upon that fortress, been exemplified—at least to the satisfaction of Secesh. The balls to be used are steel pointed, and were being made on the day of our departure, as well as previously.
