FIBS NEAR LIM/LIB/OWN. -Tho barn of Mr.
Joseph Mease, residing near the village of Lin
glestown, was entirely destroyed by fire on
Wednesday last, about 11 o'clock at night. A
gentleman in the neighborhood saw the light
when the flame was only small, and succeeded
in rescuing some property, but betore assistance
came the entire structure was enveloped in
flame. With the exception of the farm horses
the barn and all its contents were destroyed. ,
The Lingleston fire company were promptly on
the spot, and rendered efficient aid in rescuing
the adjoining property. The loss of Mr. Mean
is estimated at about $3,000 of which the most
part is covered by insurance. The fire was
evidently the work of an incendiary, strong
suspicion rests upon a,certain party wbo was
seen near the place . ' net as the fire was first seen.
We trust the wretch may be discovered.
Son or TM &GOLDER STRAPPRD gentlemen
who lounge in the saloons and live on sump
tuous dinners at our hotels, may yet have an
opportunity to slink back into obscurity, if
they are so certain that "they did not come out to
fight for the nigger." Some of these officers, and
the most of them who have never fairly stood
up to and fought a foe of the Union, are very
loud in their declarations that they do sotspp, ae
the last two proclamations of the President._
This being really so, let them resign, and it such
resignations can be clearly attributed to those
proclamations, we will consider their resignation
among the very best ends achieved by the bold
ness of the President. The man who cannot sus
tain the President in all be proclaims in his last
two proclamation s , is not dt, and should not be
trusted, to hold a command in the army or the
navy. The sooner this is proclaimed, too, by
the commander in -chief of the army and navy,
the better for the honor of both branches of
the service, and the glory and safety of the
Union.
MNIEMEMSIII=
Terrible Railroad Accident.
COLLISION ON THE OMER'
LAND VALLEY RAILROAD-
MGM KILLED AP6 OVER
FIFTY WOUNDED.
This morning, about seven o'clock, oUe of
the most terrible railroad acciderits.that has oc,-
curred for many years, took place on the Cum
berland Valley Railroad, just beyond the bridge
over the Susquehanna, and almost opposite the
city, . • •
It appears that a troop train, consisting of
some • twenty freight care, drawn by a single
engine, and having the 20th Regiment of Penn
sylvania Militia on board, was coming to this
city .from Greencastle, a email town near the
border, where the regiment had been encamp
ed for the past few days. The train was behind
time, and had been waiting for trains at Car•
lisle,' blot none coming, the train proceeded.
Die weather was very foggy, and it. was with
the utmost difficilty that objects could be di.3-
muted along the track ; but everything went on
safely until within about a half mile of the
bridge, when the train came suddenly in sight
of an engine standing on the track. The engi
neer of the troop train immediately reversed his
engine, but too late to prevent the collision,
and the engines came together with terrific
force. The result wte awful. The forw t ard
car, immediately behind the tender, was crushed ,
into fragments, and nearly all of Its occupants
either killed or wounded. The second car was
driven into the that and badly damaged, and a
numb_ei.of the Inmates eeverelyturt. The third
car was thrown on top of the second, the wheels
crushing through the top. The remaining cars
were not damaged. The engines are complete
wrecks.
Immediately after the accident two men were
Bent up the road to warn airapproaching trains
and prevent a second collision, which would
have proved far more disastrous than the first.
The same presented by the wreck was ouch
as almost beggars the description of a hastily
written local paragiaph. Inside the cam could
be seen brave men struggling in the last snap
of death—others writhing and imploring
Heaven to end their suffering—others again
dead, crushed, mangled, torn, without a single
warning of the cause which produced their end.
So sudden was the made, that the loud and
boisterous cheers of tbetikokdiers, just then ap
proaching as they ha& seeson to believe, the
last change of care width 'were to carry these
home, where, as it were, Instantly changed to
the groan, the stifled cry of pain, the yell nf
agony, and such demonstrations as men only
make who ate suddenly driven to despair and
terrible death.
As we got full view of the interior of the
cars and were able completely to comprehend
the extent,Of the disaster, the beirt fairly sick
ened at the sight. We never desire to look en
such a scene again. The cried of those wound
ed men stilt ring in our ears ; while the sight,
of the mangled and torn dead will be a specta
cle which it will be ImpOsslble to dispel from
our view for some time to come. The wounded
were all carried to hotutes'close by, and Bur
geons sent for from Harrisburg. One of the
privatei In the first Company of . Revenue
Guards, a surgeos, rendered material assistance
to some of the wounded, and made them as
comfortable as possible, until more medical aid
could arrive.
The results of the accident are tight killed
outright, and over fifty won nded, some of
them so severely that they will most probably
die.
The Whole cause' of the accident was careless
ness on the •part of an engineer of the Cumber
land Valley railroad. The Pennsylvania rail
road, which has the entire charge of the trans
portation of troops, exercised all flue caution.
The shifting engine of the Cumberland Valley
railroad, instead' of stopping at the bridge - and
inquiring the whereabouts of the troop train,
passed on, and the collision was the result.
A 00117114141 D EUMARELY INJUUD
Among the most severely wounded,is a col
ored cook of Jackson's rebel army. He left
Jackson after Wednesday's battle, with a full
expectation, that if the battle was renewed on
Thursday, Jackson would be, obliged .to sur
render. He says that his ammunition and
provisions were exhausted. The men who
came with him, on the train, were much pleas
ed with his deportment whilst with our army.
His wounds are so severe that be cannot recov
er. His sufferings seemed to be most excrucia
ting, and yet amid his groans he mingled an
appeal to his Great blaster, which showed that
even the poor contraband knew where to look
for aid in the extremity of his condition.
The crowd from this city and immediate neigh.
borhood was large. All the houses and barns near
the ground were need for the wounded and dead.
Everything was done to relieve their suffering.
The destruction of life and property is awful,
and those, by whosercareleasness it was brought
about cannot be too severely punished. We
demand a full and . fair investigation. The
public will not be entailed without it, and the
guilty must be punished. Let juetioe be done,
TIN WOWIDID COTTWIIID TO HAIRIPETTRO.
As moon as can could be procured and the
wounded rescued from the wreak, they were con
veyed to Harrisburg, where every attention in
the power of our peoplikand the skill of some
of the most eminent surgeons, was freely and
kindly bestowed upon the suffering. soldiers.
They are now as comfortable as their cases will
admit, located in the hospitals, where we pledge
the humanity of our generous., people, that
nothing will be wanting for their comfort and

Comrnr.—The Lehigh Coal and
Navigation Co., have co ,cluded to construct a
new Breach , Railroad into Lucerne county,
from the head of their inclinedprainfin Silo
man's Gap. Thbs branch will serve : the double
purpose of a "back track" for their empty cars,
and for a locomotive passenger rosd, connecting
this valley with Philadelphia, New York, &c.,
via the Lehigh. This will then be Much the
shortest road for the people in that locality to
the great cities '
FIST/VAL.—The Jewish Festival of
ilosh Hashonah, or the New Year, commenced
on Wednesday evening. . I This festival is one
peculiarly sacred to the lerrellies, and is obsetv
ed with great solemnity. It is the commence
ment of-the time set apart by Sacred Scriptures,
when the :Israelltew are summoned to make
atonement for their sine committed during the
past year. The Rosh Hashoneh commenced:on
Wedaeaday evening at sunset, and terminates
on this evening. During those two days no
business is transacted by the Jewe. And all
smilax attars We banished from the mind. One
of the peculiar ceremonies attached to this-festi
val is the blowing of the ShOphar or tromp/
in the Synagogue. This trumpet is formed of
a ram's horn, and each sound has a peculiar
symbolical and allegorical allusion connected
with the history of the Jews.
Tss 80/4)11111/1 RATFANI FROM TIM WAIL—The
history of ancient or modern times, does not
perhaps record an instance, in which an army
of fifty or sixty thousand free people assem
bled in eo short . a time, as have the Volunteer
Minds of Pennsylvania. And after having ac
complished their mission returned quietly and
in good ordor to their several homes, occupa
tions and professions. We notice in this con
nection, the cheerful faces of Doctor Martin,
Wm. H. Amey, Montgomory Forster and J. T.
Van Horn, at their several plsces of business,
and our junior partner, Q. L. Bowman, is at
home, and will be pleased to see his friends at
the cheap dry good House of Urich St Bow
man, Southall* corner of Front and Market Ste.
Tae WOUNDED AND THA SD* APPEAL FOR AID.
- - the Sta.e Capital is fast becoming one great
hospital-, • crowded with sick and wounded
soldiers, hurried hither from the battle fields
of Maryland, for succor and relief. These he
mei, our fathers and brothers and eons, appeal
1 0 U 6 all—appeal to the people for aid—not the
mere cold and formal aid of a military hospital
—but the generous, lavish and giest response,
and support of a people who are grateful to
such as these f o r the immense service thy have
rendered the nation.
Let it be spread far and wide, then, through
out all the State, that the hospitals of the State
Capital need +he prompt and liberal contribu
tions of all the people. We want hospital sup
plies—substantial, comfortable and necessary
supp Lies, such as every woman knows how to
make up for the sick, and such as every man in
the Commonwealth has the means of contrib
sting. It is not mere perishing delicacies that
are requited. It is not acuplllll of nourishment
or a spoon-full of relief—but large, bountiful
gifts, such as a wealthy and a prosperous people
can afford to contribute.
We want linen for lint, or the lint itself-we
want gcod sheeting, pillow cases, blankets and
clothes for beds—domestic wine—healthy fruit,
well preserved—the material for delicacies
which can be prepared at the hospital—in fact,
the elcit and wounded want all that the people
can and must give.
Let - the response then, be generous and prompt.
To the Afflicted.
The undersigned would respectfully in
form those who are afflicted - with Rheuma
tism, Dyspepsia, Consumption of Liver and
Kidney, Cough s, 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 quantity of invaluable
Salves for Sore Byes, Frosen Feet and Piles.
References can be furnished as to their wou
derful ef f icacy, whenever called: , upon. There
need be no apprehension in regard to my com
petency in administering it, as . I have had it
on band Ace' , the past iris yearn). 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. • • '
ArlB dlm MRS. L. BALL.
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 .ffisease. I then
gave it a trial, and my child was restored to
health. When I commencedlnuse it my child
was three weeks old. I then used your Infant'
Cordial until my child was six months old, and
my husband and I believe lb •t your medicine
was the means of Nevi= our child's life. I live
two miles below the city.

PENNSYLVANIA SS
ht the Name and by the authority
OF THE
COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA,
ANDREW G. CURTIN,
GOVERNOR OF THE MID COMMONWEALTH.
A PROCLAMATION.
Winans, The threatened invasion of Penn
sylvania by the rebel army has been arrested
by the prompt and patriotic response of loyal
men of the State, and the signal victory
achieved byQen. M'Ciellan's army on the An
tietam.
And whereas, The alacrity with which the
people in every section of the Commonwealth
rushed to the rescue of their brethren on the
Cumberland Valley border, is worthy of the
highest measure of praise. Although not re
quired by the terms of the call to pass the bor
ders of the State, our brave men, unused to the
rigors of war and untrained in military move.,
meats, not only entered Maryland, but held
Hagerstown against an advancing foe, pressed
forward to the Potomac, and resisted the threat
ened movement of the rebels *port Williams
port until troops in the United Staies service
arrived and relieved them. Their timely and
heroic action has saved the state from the tread
of an invading enemy, whose necessities made
even military strategy subordinate to plunder.
Now Therefore; I, ANDRIW G. CURTIN Gov
ernor of the Commonwealth do hereby order
that the troops called Into the service of the
State by General Order No. 36, be discharged,
and that they be sent to their homes a rapidly
as transportation can be furnished, and in
the name of our mighty State, and in behalf
of our threatened people on the border, I ten
der them the grateful acknowledgmente of
.a'
rescued Commonwealth.
And I recommend, that, the companies here
by discharged from active service, should take
prompt measures to preserve and perfect their
organiestiona, and that new ones should be
formed in every county, so that they may at all
times be ready to answer the call of the State
should their services again be required. Arms
will be issued to them as soon as they can make
regular requisitions in accordance with law,
and the companies lately in the service of the
State, will be preferred to others, should the
supply not be equal to the demand. It is confi
dently expected, however, that all the organised
MOO of the State can be promptly and properly
armed.
Given under my hand and the Great Seal of
the State at Harrisburg, this Twenty-fourth
day of September in the year of our Lord one
thousand eight hundred and sixty-two, and
of the Commonwealth the Eighty seventh.
