Thursday afternoon, September 25, 1862.
CORRECTION —A gentleman from Middleburg
informs us that FRANKLIN and not Samuel
Weirik is the editor of the Selinsgrove Times, and
that Franklin was therefore arrested for treason
and lodgrd in jail. Our informant also adds
that Samuel Weirik is one of the best and most
loyal citizens. We are glad to make the cor
rection.
-.0.---...
SAMUEL FREEBORN has been arrested and held
to bail for appearance at Court, to answer the
cha‘ge of keeping a common tippling and dis
orderly howls, on the corner of Third and Wal
nut itreets. The arrest was made by officer
Campbell, and the act was one of the best he
ever performed. The house kept by Freeburn
has long been a nuisance to the neighborhOod.
DIABOLICAL REVINGB.-A man applied to
the Drafting Commissioner to have the name
of another man placed on the roll of the mili
tia subject to draft. He said that the "fellow"
had got his girl away from him and married
her, and he " meant to get even," if it cost him
fifty dollars. If he could get his rival draftdd
and shot he would he contented and happy.
Ma. FELIX Hiram 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 home, and will
re-open his meat-shop, corner of Second and
South streets, on Friday, where he hopes to
merit a continuance of patronage. d2to.

Awn:Win—Mr. Levi Shaffer, employed in the
machine shop at Middletown, while endeavor
ing to extiact the powder from a percussion
shell, recently obtained from the battle field,
was so unfortunate as to cause its explosion.—
His fingers were very eeverely burned, and he
was slightly injured about the head. Thus the
rebels, although having failed to invade Penn-,
Sylvania, have nevertheless sent their destruc ,
five misssles far into our State.
THE ADVANTAGB OP ADVERTISING IN THE TETA
GRAPIL—Some few days since, an advertisement
appeared in the columns of the TELEGRAPH,
seeking the services of a copyist, to take charge
of and copy a certain amount of manuscripts.
In answer to this advertisement, letters have
been received from at least fifty individuals,
residing in double as many different localities.
This single fact illustrates the benefit of adver
tising in the TELEGRAPH. Business men and
those seeking help or employment, will do well
to remember this fact. We are now-publish
i. e . aucz - anTiVening - ecritiou„--.0 the
the advantage is increased by double the circu
lation of two editions.
WATER-PROOF CLOTH is produced by the simple
process of passing the cloth through a hot solu
tion of glue and alum. A weak solution of
glue is made, and while it is hot, two ounces of
alum to the gallon is added and dissolved.
Cloth mat then be wrung through the solution
and dried, wh• n it cannot be wet through by
rain, which trickles off without being absorbed.
Finer woolen goods may be sponged with the
hut solution, first on the inside, and then in the
direction of the nap, upon the out , ide. It
must be thoroughly dried, first in the air, and
then in a hot room. A small quantity of soap
added to the solution makes the cloth much
softer. Cloth made water-proof in this way
will resist the effects of water, even if it is some
what warm, but boiling removes the prepara
tion.
"A TaNANT," who says he occupies a store on
Market street, writes to us in complaint of
what he terms (and justly) an imposition, for
which, we are sorry to confess, we can offer
him no remedy. His imposition consists of the
fact, that his landlord raised his rent last, and
threatens to do so again this year, because, as
the aforesaid landlord alleges, "the taxes threat
en to be so high." The landlord will stoutly
insist, no doubt, that he is justified in shoving
a duty which he in justice, would discharge to
his government, on to the shoulders of his ten
ant ; and yet when he pays the taxes which he
has thus bled from another man, this same
landlord will boast how nobly he is sustaining
the government. There is something let all this
which is very mean. It is a small advantage
thus to shirk the payment of an honest debt,
and if the tenant in question will permit us to
make Public the name of his landlord, we will
cheerfully do so, that the slow, unerring finger
of scorn may be pointed at him, as a living,
avaricious and lustful shylock. What says our
correspondent? " Let justice be done, though
the heavens do fall."
T m DAUPHIN COUNTY REM/MT.—The follow
ing card from the chaplain of the Dauphin
county regiment will explain itself; =and of
course the appeal which it el hes will at once
be responded to by the people of the city
_and
county :"
An Appeal from the 127th Regiment P. V., to the
Friends at Some. —At the request of our excel
lent surgeon, Dr. James R. Reily, I would in
form the friends of the Dauphin_ county regi
ment that we have not received any assistance
from home for the use of the sick of this regi
ment, although we have been in camp for over
a month. The Doctor says that there are forty
five on the sick list at this time, and that they
need many articles to add to their comfort and
improvement in health. Therefore, in the
name of the Doctor and the sick of this regi
ment, I request the kind and patriotic ladies of
Harrisburg to send on soon a box of delicacies
for the sick men of this regiment. Direct them
to Dr James R. Reily, by Adams Express. If
the Express Company refuses to take them, the
Doctor says you will please send them as freight
on the ears. Hoping, ladies, that you will give
the above appeal a favorable consideration soon,
I remain, with great respect, yours truly,
JOHN C. GREGG,
, Chaplain 127th Regiment P. V.
NINETEEN PERSONS employed in . the Springfield .
armory, who refused to take the required oath
of allegiance, on the ground that they are for
eigners, were ordered by the Secretary of War to
be immediately dismissed.
If York county is bigger than both Cumber.
land and Perry in Democratic votes, as its con
ferees say, it does not send big numbers of sol
diers from . Democratic districts, as for example:
Codores with 347 enrolled for military dit
ty, sends 8 men; North Codorus, with 407 sends
22; Heidelburg; with 409; sends 30; Jackson,
with 230, sends 5; Dover, with 458, sends 23;
Paradise, with.l99, sends 2;Dellam, with 334,
sends 28; Shrewsbury, with 394, sends 33; Wind
sor, with 309, sends. 20; Conewago, with 208,
sends 6; Franklin, with 214, sends 10; Carroll,
with 158, sends s;lllanheim, with 197, sends 4;
This is a sample. Gen. Draft wants 2000 more
soldiers in York county. Hope he'll get them
si on.

late battles in Maryland, and who were killed
in these,encounters, can receive any intelligence

by writing to Mr. GSORGH 3. Snowmarr, Fairfax
P. 0., Washington county, Md. Mr. Showman
has kept a record of a large number of soldiers
whom he buried, marking their graves, and in
all things preserving the facts relating to their
identity, so that he Might be able to give any
information in reference to their burial which
may be sought by their friends. This is most
important. The notice should be copied by all
our cotemporaries—and every one interested
should not fail to write at once to Mr. Show-

SANFORD' OPERA Efouss.—The public are alive
to attraction, and at Sanford's they find the
magnet. Last evening it area impossible to get
a seat, the private bald: orchestra chairs and
parquette where crowded. ;.The fair sex were
out in numbers, and a More fashionable audi
ence never graced this ''temple of amusement
than that of last evening. , We learn this is a
nightly occurrence. In fact Sanford has learned
the wants , of his patrons. and in furnishing the
varied programme, each night excelling the
other, is agnarantee of his Management, knowl
edge; and while we have such acting as was done
last evening, we have , no hesitation in saying
that an Operailmu.....-m., S ..s]..imilic — fiient.
4 , ..L.h, t riupported the season throughout. Tile
banjo solo or mr.- emarpley was - the gem of the
evening, and showed hiS individual talents off
to a great advantage, but the climax of the
evening was ivhen the tiro Sam's had the stage
to themselves in a extemporaneous performance
entitled Taking the Draft, wit was in abun
dand. The talent of Sharpley . and Sanford then
showed itself . Such laughing, screaming and
bursting of buttons, we have never heard or
seen in a minstrel performer, take It all and
all. The Serenaders are an institution. Long
may we have a.Sanford.
J. D. CAMERON INFiNTaY—Kitled and Wound
ed.—The Dauphin journal . of this morning says
that on receipt of the news of the battles at
Middletown'and SbarPsburg, In which ft was
known that Capt. Reher's Company, from this
place, attached - to the Sixth Pennsylvania Re
serve regiment, participated, great anxiety was
felt for the safety , of our brave men. Although
the company did not suffer as severely as some
others, 'a few of our bravest young Men spilled
their blood in defence of their country, and
now repose in a soldier's grave.;.We are in
debted to JacOb 1,. Nieley, Rag , tide place,
who visited the battle-field, for the appended

Those ho were killed were decently interred,
and a fence was erected around their remains.

OR, HECK'S RECORD!
His Liberality to the Soldiers !
At a period when the hot shot
and bombs were falling thick and
fast around the gallant band who
were defending Their country's
honor in Fort Sumter, Gov. Cur
tin had sent into the Legislature
of the State, then in session, a
message suggesting the better or
ganization of the militia, and ask
ing for an appropriation of five
hundred thousand dollars to place
the state on a war footing. When
the bill proposing to make this
appropriation came before the
Legislature, Dr. Heck voted
against it, and thus practically
declared his disregard of all that
aimed at the defence of our homes
and the preservation of our liber-
ies. o-
The bill as it passed, can be
found in the last year's volume of
the laws of the state, page 229
and the proceedings attending its
passage in the House, in the
Journal of 1861, page 957. We

Freemen of Dauphin county !
Soldiers! who marched at the first
call of danger to the defence of
the capital of your country, and
who still rest upse- a irm. l ms
•
of that capital, are you ready to
vote for a man who so ilghtly es=
timated the honor of your country
and the lives of its defenders? Dr.
Heck is one of the old Breckin
ridge Democrats who sympathi
zed and still sympathize with and
confide in the course of the traitor
Breckinridge, and showed his at
tachment for those who are at the
head of this rebellion by refnsing
to make an appropriation to arm
the great state of Pennsylvania
to aid their overthrow and its
suppression. This man is again
before you, and again solicits
your vote that he may again , dis
grace the halls of legislation with
his presence and his conduct.—
He desires to be returned that he
may aid in embarrassing the fu
ture. efforts of our noble old com
monwealth in assisting to redeem
the land from rebellion by en
forcing the laws and vindicating
the federal authority. No patriot,
no brave, loyal lover'of his coun
try can vote for. Dr. Heck.
