to the United States Hotel in this city, by the
invitation of Judge Leonard, to see a sick
friend, and upon leaving the house, was at
tacked in the hall by the landlord and a man
named John Mitchell ; but the person hap
pened to be too much for both and made
them skedaddle with bloody noses. The at
tacked party then leftior the Buehler House.
As the matter will be brought before the Quar

A Winn SNABB.—The Gettysburg Star and
Banner says that a white snake was recently dis
covered in Adams county. It was about six
feet in length and was moving northward. But
what seems the more remarkable, the snake was
in imparts, not being connected in any way,
but evidently belonging to each other, in order
to make his snakesttip complete. The one half
moved after the other and appeared in every
movement to be iu sympathy with each other.
The Star can take the credit of printing the
last and the best snake story extant.

WHAT A Samos we have had, and what a
havest is crowning it I The orchards are al
most crushed to the ground by the superabun
dance of fruit, and the field' are yellow with
their bounty. No epidewic has touched the
North or swept over the South. The whole coun
try, except where the war Ins brought desola
tion, has been rejoicing in growth and marvel
lous fertility. What a glorious consummation
to such a season it would be to rescue the na
tion from the assaults of rebellion and give
peace to the republic in all its integrity. Away
with the . doubt whether a land like this can be
kept free from the progress and prosperity of a
free people.
C. H. Erma, (and not George, as was reported
in theletter of the Proprietor,) is the name of the
soldier attached to company I, 46th Reg., who
was reported as killed in the late battles in Ma
ryland. Young Etter was a most estimable
and exemplary mita, inspired with a noble
ambition to do what was right, and always
prompted in his actions by what waa honorable
and just. Many will mourn his untimely death,
though he died while battling for the noblest
cause that ever invoked a sacrifice in its de
fence. Since the above was written, letters
have been received from Col. Knipe confirming
he death of young Etter, and stating that his
body was buried, and the grave marked. We
also learn that Mr. George Trullinger and Geo.
Dunn went to visit the late battle field, and
have his body removed to this city for burial.
HONISDALI Rui —The' only three demo
crats in the Rifles, are the three mentioned by
the Patriot and Units.
In the Rifles and the Rescue Co., now in
camp from Honesdale, less than ten are demo
crats.
Of the Wayne Calvary, arrived at (lamp Our
tin yesterday, nut one•siath are democrats.
Of the Hawley militia, to arrive to-day, no
to exceed six are democrats.
Of the Damascus three years infantry, to ar
rive on Monday, not one -sixth are democrats.
Of 1,800 men which Wayne will have in the
field—as militia or volunteers—on Monday
next, not four hundred are democrats.
The above statement was furnished to ns by
a gentleman belonging to Honesdale, and who
understands the military organisation of that
county thoroughly. We print this statement
in reply to lite sickly bravado of the tory organ
this morning, which claims that because three
locofocos have gone to the war, all patriotic
men should at ones go into convulsions of de
light. The statement of our Honesdale friend
completely takes the wind out of the tory .
organ..
Two Fall Meeting and exhibition of the Cum
berland County Agricultural Society will be held

Thursday and Friday, the 16th, 16th and 17th

-...,•1
Mon Pam OF WOOL.-WOOl is now higher
than it has been for forty-four years. This is
owing to the large demand for army goods, and
to the advanced price of cotton. It will not
soon fall so low again as it has been of late
years. It would pay our Dauphin county
farmers to give more atteutton to the raising
of sheep for the fleece.
A Somas's Fanaul.—Dr. Hall says " When
you write to a soldier put cayenne in the ea•
velope—a teaspoonfull will do more good than
a bottle of rum. It will invigorate the system,
gently warm and stimulate, without the depres
sion that follows after alcoholic liquors. Is
good against chills, diarrhoea, dysentery, flux,
&u. A teaspoonful taken—a pinch at ,a time
throughout the day in your victuals and drink
—will counteract the bad effect of poor water
and give vigor and strength. Bay your pepper
at the druggists ; they have the pure article
under the name of firs.
SANTORD'EI OPERA Home, Tnran Sriumr.—A
crowd may always be found there, as the enter
tainment provided by the great Sanford is one
that cannot be equalled in minstrelsy. His
long association as manager and proprietor of
his Philadelphia Opera House, is a guarantee of
the respectability of the performers and per
formance. A great Saturday night bill is up
for this evening. On Monday evening a new
piece of a laughable character will be presented.
We learn that Mr. Hall is engaged and will ap
pear in his Bass Solo, &0., &c. To spend an
evening, go to Sanfoid's.

Tan Erraur ON TEI News UPON TEI Son- 1 1
nrees.—The moment the TELEGRAPH reached
the public last evening, the news of the recent
victories in Maryland produced some strange
effects upon the thousands of soldiers now
awaiting marching orders ha this city. Some
shouted until their throats were hoarse ; others
leaped and laughed with wild joy, which be
tokened the desperate spirit within, that only
needed prompting to undertake any enter
prise, however bloody, for the defence of a good
cause; vine devoured the news as the tears
rolled down their cheeks, blessing the vic
torious heroes between sentences, and stamp
ing their feet, as if thus to give vent to
their deep emotion ; others calmly read the
accounts, their eyes the. while flashing with a
fire which only burns in true men's souls.—
From
the capital grounds, along Third and
Market streets, the crowd ebbed and flowed and
swayed like a mighty wave. Shoutarent the air.
Strong men clasped each other in their arms,
embracing so if to make their loyalty the bond of
a friendship which was to endure for life. Anon
the name of M'Olellan was mingled with their
shouts—again Gov. Curtin was cheered—then
the Union, followed by such encomiums in the
way of boisterous applause for all who have been
OT are in any way connected prominently with
the war, just as the impulse of the moment or
the peference of the crowd suggested. Last
night will be an occasion long remembered by
all who witnessed its scenes or heard its pro
ceedings.
Ten Fulmar, or Calm Baomm.—The remain,
of Capt. Brooks were buried last evening, in
the family lot at Mt. Salm Cemetery.
At the request of the relations of the de
ceased, the funeral was entirely private, or
at least it was divested of all military pageantry
and display. He was buried from the residence of
his father•in-law, Theodore F. Schaffer, in Lo
cust street, below Front. The military escort
that accompanied the body from the battle
field to this city, followed it to the grave, and
this was all that distinguished the funeral from
that of the burial of a civilian.
By the time the funeral procession reached
the cemetery, the dark clouds of night had
gathered over the earth, thus rendering the
scene and the occasion, solemn, impressive and ,
even melancholy. Bev. Dr. Hay officiated, and
with the most touching and pathetic eloquence,
alluded to the virtues of the deemed, the
noble cause in which he had died, and the
reward which was surely his, in that Hea
ven where battles do not rage, nor death
enter to disturb its peace. He spoke to
those who mourned a hero, and reminded
them that he who was now in the grave, had
won other victories than those which crimson
the garments with blood in their achievement.
The hero of war, had also been the hero of
peace. He who hid Covered himself with lau
rels in the defence of his country, and laid
down his life that freedom might live, had
also crowned himself with laurels that would
bloom in other bones, and shed their fragrance
to perfume the atmosphere of the divine. He
spoke to her who mourned a husband, and re
minded her of the presence of Him who had
promised to be a husband to the widowed.—
Tears could not call back the dead. Lamenta
tion would not break the chain of his Bleep. Let
him rest, then, in his grave and his glory.
Such at least, were Dr. Hay's thoughts on the
occasion, but far more eloquently expressed
than we can attempt to sketch. From our pen,
no tribute would be too glowing in memory of
Capt. Brooke. We honored him while he liv
ed, because he Wall brave, courteous and frank.
We now deplore his death, because had he
lived, he might have risen to that" eminence
which his noble qualities ever indicated that
he should occupy. And yet we bow to-the in
scrutible decrees of Providence, and beseech in
torrent sincerity, for plan to ths ashes of Gam
4. limb.
Ilemutvlecmia teltartiO, Saturbap 'Afternoon September 20, 1682
W. 0. 1110KOK, Fes., President of the Com
mon Council desires us to say that he wishes
all the citizens of the Fourth Ward, who design
joining:the city patrol or guard, to meet at the
Mayor's office, between 7 and 9 o'clock this
evening, to be sworn in office.
0178 CONTAB Comm friends who harried to
the defence of the border under Capt. EL N.
McAllister, will not aihnit that they arexll ex.
empt from military duty by age, meaning,
thereby, of course, that they still peewits the
bloom and vigor of youth. We make this ex
planation with pleasure, particularly after we
had an opportunity of seeing some of those who
compose this company, the very flower of the
handsome young men of Bellefonte. And yet we
were led into the error of the first statement of
the exemption by age, after meeting some of
our oldest friends and best men of that borough
who have volunteered to do duty, and are lowly
to die rather than that the soil of Pettssyl.
verde should be polluted with a rebel heel. Let
it be understood, then, that Capt. McAllister's
company is a blendingof youth and manhood—
the one handsome and ardent, the other
mature and vigorous, in the good cause.
Tamura or EssPscr.—At a Special Meeting of
the Good Will Fire Co„ it was announced that
Henry H. Hopple was killed at the battle fought
near Harper's Ferry, when a committee of three,
consisting of the following members, W. S.
Walters, Geo. A. •Derstine, and W. K. l'erbeke,
were appointed to draft a series of resolutions,
who made the following report :
WassitAs, It has pleased Divine Providence
to take from among our absent members, who
are battling for our glorious cause, our worthy
and much esteemed fellow member, Henry
Hopple ; and whereas, he, like many more Of
our fellow members, went forth at their coun
try's call to show its traitors that the Constitu•
tion and the laws shall and will be enforced,
even at the sacrifice of precious lives ; there
fore, be it
Resolved, That, while we mourn the loss of
one so dear to us, we cannot but express our
feelings in relation to our late fellow member,
Henry H. Hopple, who has been taken away
from us in the prime of life and vigor of man
hood.
Resolved, That we deeply and sincerely regret
the loss of one who was endeared to us by his
many virtues as well as the unbounded interest
he always manifested in the affairs of the com-
PRIV.
Resolved, That by the death of Henry H. Hop
pie this company has lost one, who; from its
organization to the time he was stricken down
by the band of some ruthless traitor to our
country, manifested a seal as untiring and an
energy as unflagging as it was possible for hu
man nature to sustain.
Resolved, That we tender to the wife of the
deceased the warmest expressions of our sym
pathy in this the hoar of her deep bereave
ment.
Miami, That as a mark of respect for our
late fellow member, the hall and apparatus of
tuis company be draped in mourning for the
space of thirty days, and that a copy of the
above resolutioos be sent to the wife of the de
ceased.
Ma. EDITOR : —As a near relative of Captain
Winniam H. Aztrasws, of the 128th Regiment,
P. V., who w .6 killed in the recent battle near
Bharpsburg, Md., permit me publicly to express,
through your columns, my deep sense of grati
tude to Joan W. BROWN, Bsci , of Harrisburg,
for the recovery of the body from the battle
field, and for his personal care under great dif
ficulties, in delivering it to me In this city.
Mr. Brown also took charge of the bodies of
Col. CrtossnerA, of the 10th Regiment, and
Capt. BROOKS, of Harrisburg, which were de
livered by him to their relatives. It is proper
to add, as repents Capt. Annum, that he re
fused any compensation whatever, asserting by
way of excuse for such refusal, that all expenses
of boxing, transportation, &c., were borne by
the Government. J. Ii.NAI3B,

Written for the TILICIAPII.]
This distinguished officer • has been tendered
a high position by the Philadelphia Home
Guards, but it seems, prefers to remain in com
mand of his own regiment, which though
greatly reduced in effective force is one
of the oldest and most distinguished in the
service. The 84th will be remembered as the
regiment originklly commanded by Col. W. G.
Murray, formerly of Harrisburg, who was killed
at the battle of Winchester, in which the regi
ment won immortal honors.
Col. Bowman was originally Major of Cavalry
in the 4th Illinois—was at the battles of Fort
Donaldson, Shiloh and Coiinth, and was subse
quently breveted Colonel of Cavalry for " dis
tinguished and meritorious services." Subse
quently he was tendered the command of the
84th, which he accepted is time to participate
in the marches, battles and disasters of the re
cent campaign of Gen. Pope.
We are informed that this regiment is fast
being recruited, two full companies having
elected to join 15,-within the past few days. It
is a distinguished honor to belong to•the 84th, a
regiment by "all oar country's wishes blest."

Ma. Marro* Tuesday's issue of the Pa
triot and Union, I find a brief notice of "A Com
pany from Millersburg," and, as there is fla
grant error committed in the main statements,
I beg leave to correct them, and give a brief
history of its organisation.
The. citizens of Millersburg assembled Sept.
7th for the purpose of forming•&military com
pany for the defence of the state. Twenty-four
names were subscriOed, and the organization
duly completed by electing Bev. C. W. Ayara
Captain, W. H. Moore First Lieutenant, and S.
P. Auchmnty Second Lieutenant. The muster
roll soon numbered sixty names, and it will ex
pected that the full number would be raised
immediately. Transportation was sent for—
when it came the whole organisation was de
stroyed by certain dissatisfied office-seekers, car
rying out a preconcerted plan causing confusion
in the ranks. These, with certain "mesh" who
had joined the company for the purpose of pre
venting the Governor's order being carried out
in Milleraburg, succeeded la their purpose—they
accomplished their mean and treasonable pur
pose. The Captain then called upon all who
were desirous of rendering assistance to their
country in this, the time of her great exigency,
to follow him to Halifax and there form a new
organisation. Millersburg furuished thirty-six
men, Halifax and Matamorasfifdy four. 0. W.

Our country—land that God hath blessed,
From North to South, from Suit to West,
How art thou torn by natal strife;
Intnnal war, contentions rife.
We almost weep to see thee bleed,
Alas, it is foul treason's deed 1
But God will lay the traitors low,
Avenge, ere the invading foe,
May strike sgdo at freedom's heart,
Or bid sweet liberty depart.
Our country, unto thee we cling
With all the fervor soul can bring ;
Nor d,re we from thee tarn away,
Lest hope should wither, faith decay.
Our sun of life would quickly set,
Should we our country's cause forget ;
Then while we live we'll faithful prove,
And more than life, sweet freedom love.
