THE DAUPHIN COMM REGMENT.-A corre
spondent of the Lebanon .2ourier, writing from
Camp Boas under date of Sept. 26th, says that
on Sunday, in accordance with the Colonel's
order several weeks ago, all drilling, &c., was
dispensed with, and the only duties we are re
quired to engage in are an inspection of knap
sacks, rifles and accoutrements, guard mount
ing and dress parade. The Chaplain preached
two sermons, the one in the forenoon and the
other in the evening, to quite a large audience.
He also, by invitation of the Colonel, made an
impressive appeal to the Throne of Grace at
dress parade. The general health of the regi
ment is represented to be excellent. ,
SHRAPNEILL. —Mr. Jacob L. Nisley, of. Middle
town, among other trophies from the battle
fields of Maryland, brought one of those de
structive missies home, with which he is grati
fying the curious in our neighboring village.
Shrapnell are used when the range is beyond
canister, being fired by a fuse. The 12 pound
shrapnell contains eighteen musket balls, which,
when the shell explodes, fly off in every direc
tion. One of these bursting in a column of
Mexicans at the battle of Palo Alto, made a gap
wide enough to drive a cart and oxen through.
After the battle was over, seventy-five men
were picked up where it had exploded.
Do on READERS REMEMBER the terrible stories
circulated by the locofocos in 1856, about the
robbing of spring houses, burning of barns, rav
ishing of women, &c., &c., which were attribu
ted to the negroes, said to be liberated by the
abolitionists, and fleeing North because Fre
mont was to be President. Well, the same old
tales have been started in this county again,
and are being busily circulated since the Presi
dent's Proclamation. 'They return at every
election, and if any of our readers have a file of
any "democratic" paper, they will find them
almost word for word, as they are now again
being circulated. The man fool enough to be
lieve such stories, would believe that Jonah
swallowed the whale.
SANFORD'S OPER& Hones —The large audi
ences nightly are sufficient to caution all in
want of good seats, to go eatly. One of the
features of this evening's entertainment, is the
following song, dedicated to His Excellency,
Gov. Curtin:
WR ABS CONING, lINGZB Atror, 50,000 Emma!
We are coming, Uncle Andy, with fifty thou
sand more,
From Philadelphia's winding stream, and Alle
gheny's shore ;
We leave our ploughs and work-shops, and
wives and children dear,
With hearts too fall for utterance, with but a
silent tear.
We will not look behind us, but steadfastly be-
fore ;
We are coming, Uncle Andy, with fifty thou
sand more ;
We are coming, Uncle Andy, we are coming
Uncle Andy, with fifty thousand more.
This song, together with a miscellaneous co
lection of Ethiopian Burlesques, Dances, &c.
onus quite a rich bill.

INI ; ERESTING CEREMONY—Presentation of a Sword
to Capt. R. L Dodge, U. S. A., by the Chimers on
Recruiting Service for Pennsylvania Volunteers.—The
fact that Capt. R. I. Dodge has been relieved
from duty in this State, as Supetinteadent of
the Recruiting Service, and mustering and dis
bursing officer, has caused great regret among
those who come closely in contact with him,
and elicits also the regret of those who had a
social and personal intercourse and'acquain
'tance with the man. When the fact of this
change became known to the officers on recruit
ing service for volunteers throughout the State,
a movement was at once made to show to Capt.
Dodge their high esteem, and to present him
eome substantial token of their respect and ad
miration. Accordingly a committee was ap
pointed to purchase a handsome sword, for
presentation to this officer, and last evening the
:ceremony was performed in Brant's Hall, in the
presence of a large number of recruiting officers
and a few of Capt. Dodge's personal Mends.
Capt. Moore, of the One hundred and Seventh
P. V., introduced Col. Bowman, of the Eighty
fourth P. V., who then proceeded to Make the
presentation speech as follows :
SIR : —The officers in the employ of the gov
ernment now on recruiting service in the State
of Pennsylvania, whose names will be furnished
,you, have delegated me to present you a sword
as a token of their appreciation of you as, au
officer and a gentleman. I a happy, sir, to
be made the medium of this expression of their
regard. Your friends admire jon for your
faithful attention to business—for your patience
—for your courteous bearing in the discharge
of your difficult and perplexing duties, and for
all those qualities which men are so pleased to
find in their fellows.
This sword, sir, chased and elegant as it is
of itself, and as a mere article of cutlery, is of
no material value. There are plenty of swords
in the world which a little money will buy, but
the sentiment of regard it represents, is above
the price of gold. Accept it, sir, (it is a sterl
ing blade,) and wear it, salon know full well
how to do. Wear it like a true soldier, and if
duty calls upon you to take the field in defence
of your country, make the'enemy feel its power.
I need not remind you, sit, that our beloved
country is engaged in a momentous struggle
for existence. You know it better than I can
tell you. Would to God that "recruits" were
not wanted, and that we could all return to the
peaceful pursuits of life. if this could be done
with safety to our country, we would all plant
our swords in the earth, where they might rust
till "crack of doom; but the cry is still "to
arms," and it is the duty of you and I and all
of us to help conquer, that peace necessary to
our country's safety, our domestic peace and
national honor. Accept it, sir, and I feel as
sured it will be in the hands of a true soldier.
Captain Dodge, after receiving the sword from
the hands of Col. Bowman, replied as follows :
GENTLEMSN :—The Bible tells us that "it is
more blessed to give than to receive." Cowing
from this source, this statement is entitled to
the greatest credence. I most sincerely trust it
is so in this case, for if you feel more comforta
ble and better satisfied on this occasion than I
do, then indeed you already 4ve your reward.
I am deeply gratified, gentlemen, at the re
ception of your most beautiful gift, and the
kind words with which you have been pleased
to accompany it. In every view of it, this oc-
Casion into me most gratifying, and is peculiarly
so coming at this time, when I am about to
leave you.
You have remarked, Colonel, that this sword
is presented by my personal friends here assem
bled.
I am proud to recognize each man in
this room as a personal friend ; but the highest
value I place on this your beautiful present, is
derived from the knowledge that our inter
course heretofore has been purely official. Had
you all been intimate personal friends,.l might
well have doubted that the prejudices of friend
ship had biased your opinion of my official con
duct and capacity.
Eighteen years of service has convinced me
that there is nothing more difficult than for a
commanding officer to do his duty faithfully,
strictly and impartially, and retain, not only
the official respect, but the personal esteem and
good will of those under his command. If I
have succeeded in this, as you would lead me
to believe, the fact speaks well not only tor the
commander, but the commanded.
Gentlemen, I thank you again for this mag
nificent sword, and the very flattering manner
in. which you have spoken of me officially and
personally. - I shall transmit this sword to my
son, and I trust when delivering it to him I
shall be able to say : "My boy, this sword was
presented to me by the great and good ."
leave it to your own swords, gentlerrien, to
carve the name. .
At the conclusion of the remarks of Captain
Dodge, Captain Moore, of the 107th, P. V., en
tertained the company with a patriotic song.
Lieut. Leidtke, the Adjutant of this post,
then made a few remarks, in which he said he
had sought this country to fight for freedom,
and that while he was in the army he intended
to do his duty.
Capt. Dodge paid a high compliment to
Lieut.' Leidtke, in the course of which he
spoke of him as being one of the most, efficient
men in the fiervice.
,Speeches were Made by :pm" a Bartholomew
and Capt. Boynton, who both bore testimony
to the efficiency and popularity of Capt. Dodge.
;At the conclusion of the presentation, .the
cdmpany retired to discuss a collation, to which
ample justice was done.
:The sword is a handsome specimen of work
manship, and was gotten up expressly for pre
sentation to Capt. Dadge. The• scabbard is of
silver, tastefully chased and gold mounted,
with the following inscription :

DR. 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
ties.
'lle 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 upon your arms
night and day around the limits
of that capital, are you ready to
vote for a man who so lightly 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 F'ennayliania
to aid their overthrow and its
suppression. This man is again
before you, and again solicits
your vote - that he may againdis
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 coin
tionwealtn 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.Heek.
Mrs. K H. CORNYN,
Secretory Committee Arr
ON Puxsp GUARD.-It is night ; half of our
citizens are hushed in curtained sleep. The
whistling wind howls as it marches through the
soldiers' camp. The distant picket guard
moves slowly and cautiou-1y over his allotted
beat, and ever and anon his watchful fancy seems
to hear the footfall of the approaching foe.
Who goes there? a friend ; the word airs well;
end thus the faithful sentinel marches to and
fro amid the howling storm and drenching
rain, a watchman of his country's honor. What
untold gratitude, then, do those brave hears
and willing hands deserve, who have quitted
home to peril lis• fur their country. The cheap
dry good house of Urich & Bowm ru always
ferl like giving good Lupins in dry goods to
those men and their families. 2t
A Morin Essmaxasumerr —Among the many
improvements lately made in our city, to which
we can point with pride as an evidence of pros
perity and as a determination on the part of
our business men,. no longer to remain behind
the ' light house," is the completion of Eby
& Kunkle's large brick building at the corner
of Maiket and Fifth struetl. which is alike
creditable to the owners and ornamental to that
part of our city.
The building is not only one of the largest,
devoted to the grocery business, outside of New
York, but the stock ch Menges competion.—
Without going into detail, we may , safely say
that the firm keep on hand everything usually
kept in a grocery store, (liquors excepted,) and
that they sell at very, small profits. Their
clerks are civil and accommodating, and have
strict instructions under no circumstances what
ever to misrepresent or take advantage of any
'customer. A general invitation is extended to
the public to visit the new building and exam
ine the extensive stock, whether they purchase
or not.

PENNSYLVANIA SS :
In the Name and by the Authority
OF THE
COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA,
ANDREW G. CI7RTIN,
GOVERNOR OF THE SAID COAINONWEALTH.
A PROCLAMATION.
Wanases, 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 by Gen. 31'Clellan's army on the An
tietam.
And whereas, The alabrity 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
merits, 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 upon William&
port until troops in the United States 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, ANDREW G. CIIRTLN 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 as 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 acknowledgments 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
organizations, 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 betted 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 organized
men 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.
BY THZ GOVERNOR.
