RAILROAD ACCIDINTS,—Henry Newcomer, of
Bnu bury, employed on the gravel train of the
Philadelphia & Erie Railroad, was killed on the
bth lust., near Lewisburg, by being crushed be
tween the cars
Assourr or DesturrEss.—A considerable num
ber of Union and Rebel deserters were arrested
in and near Yo.k borough during the last three
days. The Federals were duly committed to
prison until they can be sent back to their reg
iments, and the others, after taking the oath
of allegiance, were permitted to go on their way
rejoicing.
LIM. COL. ROBERT A. LAMBERTON, at the
head of the Harrisburg companies comprising
in part his regiment, marched through the
principal streets of the ( ity, this morning, and
attracted for " the boys" the attention and ap
plause of the people. In fact, though not uni
formed, the men looked and marched like vete
rans. We feel proud of our militia.
Boys, Do You HEAR THAT f—The young la
dies say that the young men must make good
use of their time now and consider themselves
of great consequence, for when the war is over
and the brave soldier boy returns to his home,
they intend to have soldier beaux. They think
the defenders of the country will make the best
defenders of the fair. Some of the ladies say
that those men who are so conscientious as to
take the oath not to defend their country, would
not defend their wives If attacked, and there
fore will not have anything to do with them.
Tus TH/ILD REGIIItINT P. V. M., Col. Dores, of
Huntington, and composed of men from North
umberland, Union, Lycoming, and Juniata
counties, arrived in the city last evening, and
were forwarded to their respective localities
during the day. This regiment occupied a po
sition between Hagerstown and Williamsport,
where they composed the advance of the militia
force on the border. They werein line of battle
forty hours, and made a forced march of forty
five miles. For raw men, the regiment won
great credit.
Houses STOLEN—TILIEVIIS ARRBSTED.—Two
young men who gave their names as William
and Henry lianyon, and bailing from Rhode
island, came to the residence of Mr. Jacob Eber
sole, at Eib's Landing, Manchester township,
in York comity, on Sunday evening the 14th
inst., and asked for employment. Ou Monday
and Tuesday following they worked, and on
the night of the 16th they left, taking two of
Mr.Ebersole's horses with them, and two saddles
and two bridles. Next morning the 17th, Mr.
E went in pursuit of them and found them at
Wrightsville, where they had been arrested on
suspicion and committed to prison.

A ROMANCE, which seems like a page from a
fashionable novel, has recently been enacted in
Williamsburg, New York. It appears that
*owe ten years ago a poor widow named Lake
started for California, first giving her infant for
adoption to Mrs. Walsh, living in Brooklyn.
California proved El Dorado indeed to Mrs.
Lake, for she there married a very wealthy gen
tleman, and a few weeks since returned with
him to this city. She claimed her chill, but
Mts. Walsh refused to give it up, and after con
siderable litigation the Court decreed that the
adopted, and not the real mother, should re
tain the little one.
IMPORTANT TO LATTIIIR WRITNREL—The U. S.
Mail, a paper published by an ex-11. S. Mail
agent, in describing the immense work done at
the poet office at Washington, D. C., says that
the work of the office is rendered very difficult
from the ignorance or carelessness of persons
directing their lettere. The Mail says :
" Many letters come with the envelope cov
ered over with everything that is needless, and
nothing esseutiil, like the following, actually
copied from a letter received :—"Gleo. F. Ar
moles, care Brig. Clen 'Limes Naglee, comman
didg, let Brigade, 2nd Division, 9th Army
Corps, camp near "Rapidan river, 6 miles from
Culpepper Court 'amulet Culpeppr county, Va.,
Burnside's Division."
"Now, if instead of the above long, nonsen
aical address, he bad written thus,—George F.
Armorea, Co. B. 128th Beg. Penna. Vols.,—we
should have known just where to send it.--. T he
largest number of letters mailed (at the Wash.
iggton office) in one day has reached 70,000.
number of free letters and packages re
ceived during the last quarter was 910,000, or
more than three and a half millions during the
year."
The Postmaster wishes all persons directing
letters to soldiers In the army, to know that a
simple and short direction is all that is neces
sary, and is much more likely to quickly reach
its destination. All that is necessary is the
mime of the pereon, number or letter of his
Company, and the number and State of his Regi
ment.
Ma. Fat.ix HUBEI having closed his place of
business, in order to go With the militia, for the
protection of our border, takes this mode of in
forming his old patrons and the public gener
ally, that he has now returned honiel and will
re-open hie meat-shop, corner of Second and
South streets, on Friday, where he hopes to
merit a continuance of patronage. d2to.
Samoan's OPERA Houss.—Notwithstanding
the star attraction of Sanford himself, he pre
sents the famous Sam Sharpley, as the hero of
the evening. Sam, since his last visit to this
place, some six or seven years ago, has been in
every country and clime, and is now ranked a
No. 1 performer, or as the bills says, the best
in the world. For genuine wit and humor, we
can endorse him, and with our own great Sam,
we may look for some rich and rare fun. The
two Sam's are a bully team and should draw
big houses, notwithstanding the extra expense
Mr. S. assumes, as he has not raised the price
of admission. So be in time if you wish a seat
at the cosy Opera House to-night

CARD OF THANKS. —At a special meeting of
the Marion Guards of Harrisburg, the follow
ing resolutions were unanimously adopted :
Resolved, That we tender our heartfelt thanks
to Mr. Wm. H. Verbeke, for his kind attention
to our company during the stay in camp. We
shall always cherish in our memory one, whose
noble deeds have contributed so much to our
country's cause.
Resolved, That we tender our sincere thanks
to Mrs Verbeke for her kind attention to our
company. CHAS. A. SMITH,
PATRICK BURNS,
WM. EVANS,
Committee.
The company elected the following gentle
men as officers :
Captain—E. B. Sanno.
First Lientenant—John' Raymond.
Second Lientenant —Raphael Flowers
=I
PERSONAL—The officer of the day, at Camp
Curtin on Saturday, the 23rd day of August last,
will please leave that small amount of money
placed in his hands by a private, at this office,
so that it can be handed over to the wife of the
soldier. Proper authority for its reception will
be produced.
In our notice of the above, yesterday, it would
appear as though Captains Hunt or Tarbutton
were the persons alluded to. We should have
made it read the ofiracer of the day, and not the offi
cer In command. The money was placed in that
officer's hands for safe keeping and the sol
dier was ordered to join his regiment, and left
in such haste that he was unable to see the
officer before his departure. No blame is at
tached to the officer who received the funds,
and If left at this office, we will deliver the
money to the family of the soldier, or direct
the officer to their residence.
ARRIVAL OF THIII DAUPHIN COUNTY MILITIA.-
Their Reception and Appearance. —Last evening
the Dauphin county regiment, or such com
panies as belonged to Harrisburg, arrived at
the depot, and were received by a large con
course of people. The appearance of the boys
after a campaign of a week, was of course not
as neat and as trim as
_when they started for
the border, and yet we venture the assertion
that the experience they had of a soldier's
life will induce a large number to enter the
service for the war.
The different companies were marched to
heir respective headquarters and dismissed.
After the arrival of the Dauphin County
Cavalry, and after they had paraded through
the principal streets, the company was hand
somely entertained by the host of the Bom
gardner House, Mr. Joseph Stone.
In addition to the companies belonging to
this county, a largo number of men belonging
to other localities also arrived in the city at
different hours during the night. Others will
continue to arrive during the day, and as feet
as transportation is furnished the men will be
brought to this city, mustered out, and then
forwarded to the different localities in which
their companies were organised.
WE HAVE received a large assortment of hoop
skirts, from 75c. up to $2 50. A large assort
ment of linen and needlework collars, and col
lars and sleeves, at all prices. White cambrics,
jacametts, nantucks, brilliants, and plain and
figured Swiss muslin, at all prices. The finest
lot of embroidered French cambric brands ever
brought to Harrisburg—of infant's waists we
keep a large assortment. Ladies' and gentle
men's linen pocket handkerchiefs, ladies' stock
ings, gentlemen's one half hose, and children's
stockings of all descriptions and prices. Twenty
pieces of carpet to be sold cheap. Kentucky
jeans, sattinetts and cassimeres for men and
boy's wear. We received 50 dozen suspenders,
at all prices. 50 dozen cotton handkerchiefs,
with borders, and a great many other notions
and small wear. S. LINT.

The undersigned would respectfully in
form those who' are afflicted with Rheuma
tism, Dyspepsia, Consumption of Liver and
Kidney, Coughs, Fevers, and all diseases
arising from impurity of the blood, that she is
prepared to furnish Mrs. Westhoven's German
Vegetable Medicines at very moderate rates.
I have also en hand a quantity of invaluable
Salves for Sore Eyes, Frozen Feet and Piles .
References can be furnished as to their won
derful efficacy, whenever called upon. There
need be no apprehension in regard to my com
petency in administering it, as I have had it
on hand for the past six years. As they are
now sold at reduced prices, no family should be
without them over night. They can be had at
any time at my residence, in Pine street, be
tween Second and Front.

Mae. BALL :—I take this method of testifying
to the efficacy of your valuable medicine. My
child had Convulsion of the Bowels, and I heard
of your curing children of that disease. I then
gave it a trial, and my child was restored to

Was three weeks old. I then used your Infant

My husband and I believe that your medicine
was th e means of saving our child's life. I live
