Hosamts.—On last Sunday night, William
Hall, of Washington township, Indianacounty,
in a lit of insanity, seized an axe and inflicted
severe wounds on the heads of his wife and
daughter. The injuries ate so severe that it is
thought they will prove fatal in both cases.

Tna WOMEN DROVE HIE Our.—A schoolmas
ter went dodging about from one place to an
other to avoid volunteering until at length he
slipped into a school at Lionville, Chester
county, where he hoped to have a peaceful time
of it. Word got out that he had gone from
post to pillar to avoid fighting for his country,
when the women of Lionville drove him out of
the school house and compelled him to volun
teer. Good for the true women of :Lionville.

WOULDN'T HAva a Ta.airoa.—By hook or by
crook Hodgson, of the leffdaviscmian, the organ
of the Chester county Breckinridgers, got his
name on the list of one of the companies form
ing in Chester county to come to Harrisburg.
As soon as the members found it out they struck
it off, declaring that they would go with no one
who would more readily act as a spy for Jeff.
Davis than fight his thieving hoards. This was
right of coarse.
WE HAD HONED, and expected to hear again
the popular and eloquent Temperance Lecturer,
L. Leonidas Allen, before his return to the ar
my, where be has been engaged , river a year,
very successfully, in lecturing to our patriotic
and gallant troops on his favorite and impor
tant theme. His time has been occupied in
writing out his " Pencillings of a Temperance
Lecturer in the Grand Union Army," with de•
signs f, .r publication hereafter. He returns to
the army to-morrow.
Tns Loss or THE GOLDEN GATE.—In publish
ing a list of the passengers who were lost in
the wreck of the Golden Gate, one of the Cali
fornia steamers, the name of George W. Kinzer
appeared, a son-In-law of Deputy Sheriff Shell,
of this city. Mr. Shell this morning received a
letter from his son-in-law, announcing the fact
that he was safe, and that the Kinzer alluded
to was &George/I. Kinzer, son of Amos Kinzer, of
Lancaster county.

ABOLDHED. —All military titles each as "Gen
eral," " Major," "Colonel," "Captain," &c.,
which have nothing to rest upon but "corn
stalks and fuss and feather" parades are abol
ished. The former "highfalutin" General, is
now nothing more than plain "Mr." or perhaps
"Squire." All military titles not earned in
the late wars or the present, are perfectly ridicu
lous. There is too good a chance to earn titles
which the worthy soldier alone should wear.—
We put the question to the people, shall "corn
stalk" stand abolished? • • '

DUPZIIATB Amor AT SITIOIDS.-A great ex
citement was created at the foot of Chesnut
street. in the neighborhood of the Pennsylvania
Railroad depot, this morning, by the desperate
attempt of a soldier to commit suicide. He was
observed with a large knife in his hand, draw
ing it across his throat, inflicting severe wounds.
After be bad lacerated his neck in a dreadful
manner, he plunged the blade of his knife in
his abdomen, and with the most desperate ener
gy sought the ending of his life. He was taken
possession of by some of the people in the
neighborhood, and carried to Dr. Seller's office,
who dressed his wounds.
ARRIVAL or RRBBL Pam. NICHS.--Capt. Hughes
of the Second Penna. Militia, arrived from
Frederick this morning, in charge of ninety
Rebel prisoners, including twenty contrabands.
The Secesh were carried to Camp Curtin, where
they were added to those already held as priso
nets in that locality, all of whom are under the
strict surveillance of Capt Hunt, whois now in
command of Camp Curtin. The Rebel prison
ers in this camp are certainly a ragged crowd—
ragged not only in appearance, but in morals
and in spirit Among them we noticed Fits
hugh, the spy, who had been lurking in this
vidnity only a few weeks since, making obser
vations and taking notes of the situation of
affairs. We hope that an example will be made
of this scoundrel. Let him be fairly tried as a
Spy — condemned as a spy—and hong as a spy.
every loyal man now in arms demands this act
df justice.
Capt. F. ilabary Awl left for Fort Delaware
this afternoon with a detachment of fifty, io
charge of these rebel prisoners.
Jamas, who, it will be reinembered,
took charge of the Monitor when that gallant
craft had her great encounter with the rebel
ram Merriniac, arrived in this city this morning.
He is a brave and handsome looking officer,
who has earned more credit than he has yet
received, and who is destined to be of greet ser
vice to the Government. Lieut. Jeffers is In
charge of a battery, with which he is en route
for the locality of active cperations on the Po
tomac.

Ma. Amor. WATSON postponed his grand anni
versary meeting in honor, (as we were inform.
ed but don't believe) of the adoption of the Con
stitution of the United States. Were the Breck
inridged fearful that their mock celebration
would become the subject of the, ridicule and
contempt of the loyal men who are now in
Harrisburg, or have they abandoned that dodge
to attempt some other trick to deceive the
people ? These are grave questions, and should
be answered. This Constitutional celebration
was one of the schemes which Frank Hughes
adopted to ensure the success of some of his
games Its postponement compels us to wait
patiently for the new dodge that will certainly
be attempted by the same party.

INTERESTING SPATIGIES THIS Evzsuso.—The
Carlisle Presbytery (Old School) will meet this
evening in the Presbyterian church, corner
Third and Pine ; for the' purpose of ordaining
Mr. Ferriday to the gospel ministry. Dr. Har
per, of Shippensburg, is ezpebted to preach the
sermon, while the moderator, Rev. Mr. Hays,
and the pastor of the church, Rev. Mr. Cattell,
will conduct the other exercises. Mr. Ferriday
has received the appointment of chaplain to
the 121st regiment P. V. (Col. Biddle,) and will
at once enter upon his duties, the regiment
being now in the field. Mr. F-'e talents as an
earnest and eloquent preacher, are fully appre
ciated by our citizens, while his courteous man
ners have won for him a host of personal friends.
There will doubtless be a large audience this
evening to witness his'ordination. The services
commence at half past seven o'clock, and will
be held in the church, the lecture room being
occupied by the soldiers.
ACCIDWiT.- As the afternoon passenger train
from the west, on the Penna. Central Railroad
was passing in the neighborhood of Henderson's
store, Radnor township, Chester county, on
Saturday last, at about half past five o'clock, it
came in contact with a large stone-wagon drawn
by four horses, which at the moment was in
transit over the track. The concussion, al
though not sufficient to throw the train off the
track, was severe enough to dash the wagon to
atoms, scattering the huge blocks of stone with
which it was laden, to the right and leit like
chaff, and tearing off in the process a large por
tion of the frame work of the engine fortunate
ly, however, not crippling it. No personal in
jury, except so far as a terrible fright to the
passangers, was sustained, and the train, not
withstanding the occurrence, reached Phila
delphia in due season. _
A conesspostorter of the London Athermum
writes on August 9th last that on that day a
baker's house in Pompeii was excavated, in ose
corner of which was found a heap of silver and
copper coins, to the number of about five hun
dred, which had seemingly been tied up in a
little bag. At the same time and near the same
spot were found two large shears, and soon
afterwards a house mill of the ordinary descrip
tion, together with a little heap of corn, the
grains of which were blackened and somewhat
shrivelled, but yet fully preserving their shape
and very little diminished in size. In the next
apartment was found the metal shovel with
which the loaves were placed in the oven ; the
oven itself, the mouth of which was closed with
a large iron door, not on hinges, but cemented
at the edges to the face of the four large slabs
which formed the mouth of the oven. The
door was soon removed, and we were rewarded
with the sight of the entire batch of loaves,
such as they were deposited in the oven seven
teen hundred and eighty-three years ago. They
are eighty-two in number, and are all, so far
as regards•form, size, indeed every characteris
tic except weight and color, precisely as they
came from the baker's hand. When it is recol
lected that up to the present time but two such
loaves have been discovered, one of them im
perfect, the interest of the discoveries will be
fully appreciated.
Tmsertv Norss.--Thompson's Bank Note
Reporter accounts for the fact that 11. S. Trea
sury notes are seen so little in the general cir
culation of the country, by supposing that they
are held in individual hands, as a consequence
of the broadcast diffusion of money by means
of the bounties and pay of the soldiers, and
other incidents of the war. It has been here
tofore said that these Treasury notes were piled
away in bank vaults, as - a basis of bank Issues,
-but we are not sure that the conjecture of
Thompson's Reporter is not nearer the truth.
The public kriow that the Treasury notes are
as good as the best bank notes, which are
themselves redeemable only in Treasury notes.
The public also know that the Treasury notes
are far superior in point of security to the bulk
of the bank notes in circulation. It is proba
ble, therefore, that a majority of persons, hav
ing small sums on hand, prefer to keep them in
the form of the Goverment paper, as the best
to be had ; and that, in this way, a large
amount of such paper is absorbed and kept out
of circulation. That it is absorbing in some
way, is most certain ; as, except , at points
where Government disbursements are large
and constant, Treasury notes axe rarely seen.
Thompson's Reporter is of the opinion that
a further Wane of Treasury notes should be au
thorized, in order to supply•the public demand
for currency. We do not see the necessity for
that, as the demand for currency can be other
wise supplied ; but, at the same time, we see
no objection to a further issue of Treasury
notes, and upon a considerable scale, as a
means of borrowing money for the use of
the Government. The capacity of the coun
try to absorb these notes, without producing'
a redundancy of money and an imitation of
ow has proved far greater than anfoody
anticipated,

MB. EDITOR :-I perceive that the Breckiu
ridge organ, miscalled "Patriot and Union,"
censures our ,ble and patriotic State Treasurer
for the exercise of a commendable discretion fn
removing to a place of safety valuable at chives,
&c., to prevent their drstruction by the ruthless
followers and dupes of that paper's late candi
date for the presidency, in case of their sudden
visit to this place. The editor infers from the
steps taken by the Treasurer, that all the em
ployees on the hill were frightened out of their
wits and would, ignominously, flee. Now I
must do the " Patriot" the jus ice to sqy, that
I don't believe any one connected with their
establishment would have reason to &Bert his
post. They ate serving Jeff. Davis and John
C. Breckinridge so ably and zealously that none
of their hordes would disturb them, exercifiug,
as they no doubt would, the timely precaution
to hang out the "stars and bars' and thus
avoid all molestation from their "southern
brethren." Bat woe to the "Telegraph" in
such an emergency ; it would share the fate of
the " Examiner' at Frederick. 8.
