lacks a few men of being full, and we commend
all who desire to serve under a dashing and
brave officer to enlist at once in this command.

We had the pleasure of meeting Daniel S.
Dougherty, Esq., today, halhe capitol grounds.
Among the bold and eloquent defenders of the
Government, he is the equal of the most emi

swer to the call of the Governor for troops to
resist the late threatened invasion. He is con
nected with the U. S. Quartermasrer Depart
ment in Philadelphia, bat could not resist the
appeal of the Executive for men to defend the
State.
Tim PIIMMULPIIIa. Home GUARD, fifteen hun
dred strong, reached this city to-day, and after
marching through our principal streets, halted
in the capitol grounds where their presence cre
ated the greatest enthuslaem. They are a splen
did body of men, fully armed and equipped for
immediate active service. They will reflect
credit on the State wherever they are detailed
for duty.

Oaz Of UM unmans of the camp in the
Capitol Grounds, was related to us by a soldier
yesterday. When the newsboys reached the
ground with the morning papers, and began to
cry "Moasnto Tersomon," the soldiers eagerly
purchased the paper ; but when the other news
boys called with the "Patriot and Union," the
soldiers shouted "away with the tory organ"—
"get out with the Jar Davie organ"—"send
the paper down south," &c., &c. until the in
nocent boy who was attempting the sale of the
tory organ was actually compelled to leave the
camp. We give the incident for what it is
worth, as being related to us by a gentleman
and a soldier of veracity.
Panning, as usual, are prominent in the pre
sent great uprising of the people of Pennsylva
nia. Yesterday we had a call from Samuel
Biddle, of the Pittsburg Gaulle, who brought a
splendid company to the State Capital in an
swer to the summons of the Governor. He Is
as brave as he is accomplished, and will lead
his men only where honor and: 'victory are to
be found. Charles Wight, of the Pittsburg
Chronicle, is a high private in the same company,
a position as open to honorable service as the
highest grade is the army. We congratulate
our cotemporaries, and trust that they may bear
with them back to their more peaceful pursuits,
when the war is over, honor and fame in the
largest sense.
Tan GERMANTOWN GRAMM—We noticed a
splendid company at the Penna. Depot last eve
ning, and upon inquiry learned that it was the
Germantown Guards. The following is a list of
its officers :
Captain—Marks J Biddle.
Ist Lieut.—S. P. Grata.
2nd Lieut. —J . C. Jones, Jr
The Guards come to Harrisburg prepared for
immediate service. They were fully equipped
In dark blue blouses, pants, caps and overcoats ;
knapsacks, wool and gum blankets, haver
sacks, &0., fio., and with five thousand rounds
of cartridge. The company is composed of some
splendid looking men, and altogether, it came
to the State Capital more completely fitted for
duty in the field than any of the new levies
which have yet arrived .

TM OATH ADMINISTERED TO NON-IMEWITANTS.
—Persons who are conscientious against bearing
arms are exempted by the Constitution of this
State, but must pay an equivalent for such ser
vice. The oath, or affirmation however, which
they are compelled to take, is of a searching
character. This is it :
STATE OF PENN'A, County es:
Before me, Commissioner to superintend
Drafting for raid county, personally appeared
—, who being duly —, did depose and
say, that he conscientiously scruples to bear
arms, believes it unlawful to do so, whether in
leaf -defence or in defence of his country, or oth
erwise howsoever ; that the scruples and belief
above stated, have not been formed lightly,
but carefully, deliberately, and conscientiously,
and are now declared and professed not for the
purpose of evading the military service of his
country in the present exigency, but because he
solemnly and religiously maintains them, and
In his conFeleace believes that it to his bounden
duty to act in accordance with them on all °c
essions, and under all circumstances.
Tim SIQNB or UNION.—The following extract
from a business letter addressed to Messrs. C.
8. Bailey & Brother of this city, is from one of
the heaviest business houses in New York city.
Su* tenders of aid, speak volumes in an hour
like this, and it is on such feeling that we must
rely for the strength that is to render the Union
hereafter endurable
"It makes us sick at heart to realize that
rivers of the first blood on the continent has
already flowed ; and now the rebel invaders are
at our own doors.
"But by the grace of God there are yet un
called two millions of men, and untold wealth
ready to unite with Pennsylvania for her de
fines and preservation.
"There is a movement here to offer at once
to Goy. Curtin, 10,000 returned militia, who are
well drilled, armed and equipped for immediate
service."
We can answer our kind friends that Gov.
Curtin now has in the field some fifty thousand
armed minds, and therefore not until the dan
ger Is greater will we require the aid of New
York to delve our borders. Nevertheless we
are gadded for the present tender.

Ladles Union Belief Association is requested on
Wednesday, Sept. 17th, at four o'clock ?. st., in
their room at Dr. Bally's.
TITS MIDDLITOWN CAVALRY, Captain James
Y ming, arrived in this city at B o'clock last eve
ning. They are a fine body of men. After re
porting themselves at headquarters, they were
ordered to return to Middletown to await fur
ther orders. Our neighbors in Middletown are
awake to the emergency and deserve great credit
for their prompt response to the Governor's call.
Tax Ray. EDWARD MoKaa, late Catholic pas
tor of the united wishes of Chambersburg and
Carlisle, bail been appointed by his Excellency,
Governor Curtin, Chaplain to the 118th Regi
ment. Penn'a Volunteers, attached to General
Corcordin's Brigade. We congratulate Colonel
Heenan and his command on this appointment,
as the Rev. gentleman is highly qualifird for
the position both by literary endowments and
patriotic devotion to the great cause which has
enlisted the sympathies of every friend and
well-wisher of the Constitution.
&PORTANT AJUIEST.—One of the guard com
poeed of the First City Zouaves, :lade a very im
portant arrest last evening. Just after sun
down a resident in the neighborhood of Oyster
Point noticed five suspicious looking individu
als making what he supposed a reconnoissance
amost too careful for mere casual sight hunters
and suspecting that all was not right, he has
tened to the camp of the Zouaves and gave in
formation of the fact. The guard immediately
started on a double quick, keeping it up until
they reached the point, (5 miles) when they
succeeded in arresting two of the party of five,
the other three having fled. The prisoners
were brought to this city and confined. It le
suspected that they belong to Stonewall Jack
son's forces. They will of course be properly
disposed of after a fair examination.
Annan To Sormass.—A correspondent w rites
to the Middleburg &lista, to give to inexpert
enceksoldiers some hints for the preservation
of health, from what he has learned in the field.
After warning the new recruit that the enthu
siasm of the first week will soon tone down to
stanch realities, which he must meet and face
as a man—that be cannot live as carelessly
about his health as he can at home, where warm
rooms and comfortable beds and well-cooked
meals are at his service from day to day, and
that he must act the physician for himself, to a
great degree, and be watchful against any pre
disposition to disease, he prcceeds to give some
special directions as follows :
"They consist of a programme of articles to
be taken by the recruit when he goes into camp,
or to be sent to him by his friends, when he
shall have reached a point where he can be ad
dressed.
"Let him have with him two pairs of well
knit socks, two Arm woollen shirts, a large
crash towel, a piece of Castile soap, to be used
as often as possible in bathing the entire body ;
a woollen cap, sometimes called a smoking
cap ; two large old-faahloned silk pocket band
kercetefs, which may be used to hang from the
neck, as a protection against a biasing sun, or
as a bandage for wounds. He should also have
constantly with him a supply of Cayenne pep
per, such as Is obtained from the drug stores
under the name of 'capsicum.'
" The benefits arising from the use of this
latter article are incalculable. A single pinch
in a glass of fiat warmish water will nullify
the effects and the uncomfortable sensation
from having drunk too much water during the
day, will help the sentinel keep awake at his
post at night, by warming and invigorating
the whole system. A good pinch eat en at each
meal, or when a cup of tea or coffee is drunk,
will add digestion, assist in preventing acidity
of stomach, and is besides a great antagonist
of the diarrhoea, dysentery, Aux, and "
loose
ness," which are the great ecourgesof the army.
A level teaspoonful of the capsicum, taken dai
ly in eating or drinking, or both, or two fla
gon' full taken two or three times a day, will
do more toward warding off the fever and ague
than ten times the cost in rum and quinine.
There should always be carried in the knapsack
a large piece of gate perdu cloth, to spread
upon the ground at night for the soldier to
spread hie blanket on when be goes to bed. TO
these suggestions may be added the injuntioni
to eat, as far as possible, regularly, to shun
'tattlers' tents, with their detestable pies and
cakes, and their poisonous preserved meats, as
one would shun a contact with the leprosy ; to
maintain, in short, a perfect system of living
just as far as duty in camp will allow.
" If my friend who may read this, and who
has buckled on his armor for the cause of his
country, will treasure the hints I have thrown
out, and act upon them, be will add a hundred
per cent. to the probabilities of his returning
to his father's house, that knew such keen an
guish and bitter mourning when he was called
to leave it."

whom he came in contact.

THS cm still presents a warlike appearance.
Notwithstanding fora week past troops have been
constantly pouring ever the river, the greets were
crowded with them to day. Since yesterday
morning the arrival of sharp-shooters from the
Interior of the State has been incessant. Great
trains were constantly arriving to-day, filled
with those eager riflemen from the country.
Upon arrival, they are fed organised into regi
ments and sent to the various points on the
line. The citizens not on military duty are do
ing all they can to make the defenders of the
city comfortable. The ladies are very active
in preparing provisions, lint, bandages, &c.
They are fully as zealous and spirited as the
men.

of your curing children of that disease. I then
gave it a trial, sud my child was restored to

was three weeks old. I then used your Infant
