MILITARY BUSINE4S,
Of all Linde attended to.
EUGENE SNYDER,
Attorney at Law.
Office : Ti.ird Street, Harrisburg, Pa. [0271y.
DONN DOWN. —The Patriot, this morning, ac
knowledges thst it misrepresented the facts in
the late stabhi g case, and hence spoils the
sensation which it imagined it started' for
si those of its cotemporaries who are always
ileady to gobble up anything horrible on the
nigger question.
Maw Faavn.—Five dollar bills, purporting to
be issued by the Clinton Bank of Pennsylvania,
are in circulation. The notes are altered from
the broken Clinton Bank of Maryland, are well
engraved and have a railroad train on upper
centre. There is no bank of that name In Penn
sylvania.
Srowitio POTATOES. —As many of our farmers
and gardeners are now stowing away their win-
ter supply of potatoes, the following hints on
the subject from a correspondent of the Scien- '
tific American may prove of use. The writer
says he has tried it four years and that it has
proved a sovereign remedy, not having lost a
bushel in that time after they were harvested,
though in sumo cases they were half diseased
when taken out of the ground. The receipt is
as follows : "Dust over the floor of the bin
with limn al d put about six or seven inches
deep of potatoes and dust with lime as before.
Put in six or seven inches more of potatoes, and
lime again ; repeatiug the operation till all are
stowed In that way. One bushel of lime will
do forty bushels of potatoes, though more will
not hurt them—tike limo rather improving the
flavor than otherwise."
A COURTING EXPEDMON.—Two young men
from the Denys, this county, started on a court
ing expedition to Lancaster county, last Sunday.
While returning home late in the night, in the
"wee small hours," they accidently drove their
blind horse into a cellar, which was in course of
construction, upsetting the carriage and throw
ing the lovers into the mud. They sustained
no personal injury, further than the damaging
of their " Sunday clothes," and a few slight
scratches. Considerable trouble, however, was
experienced in extricating the horse and buggy
from the cellar--they having to tear down a
portion of the wall before the object could be
effected. The next time the boys go a courting
they had better supply themselves with a
lantern, or a pair of bright damsel eyes to light
them on the road. A blind horse and a driver
"blind in love" are bad companions to travel
with on a dark night. We hope to bear a better
account from the " b'hoys" the next time.
I=
Tax TIME for furnishing substitutes expired
yesterday, and thus the market in that busi
ness is closed. Some of the sharp ones made
a profitable enterprise of the matter of fur-
nishing substitutes. We heard of a case
rather interesting, the names of the parties to
which we are not allowed to divulge It is to
this effect: Two young men both attached to
the same lady, and strange to relate, knew of
each other's failing and respected it like men.
One was drafted and the other escaped. They
both met at the house of their lady love, who
offered to arrange the difficulty of their love,
if they pledged themselves mutually to abide
by the decision. An agreement was promptly
and honestly made, when the young lady at:ring
ed to marry the man who had been drafted, provided
the other would offer himself as a substitute. The
agreement was accepted. The substitute offer
ed—and the marriage celebrated within twenty
four i.ours from the time the lady made the
proption.• The parties to this affair will not
object to this notice, while those who are not
cognizant of the romance,may at once commence
inquiry for the names of the heroes and hero
ine This incident is not the strangest which
ham been produced by the force of war, and
yet we must call it a freak of love.
Tim Orr. CHEEK Remsoao.—The history of this
road gives a remarkable specimen of enterprise
and "go-aheadativeness." The road was pro
jected and determined on by the owners of the
oil wells about the middle of the spring of this
year. No time was lost. The capital was at
once subscribed, and the work entrusted to Dr.
Streator, well known from his connection with
the Atlantic and Great Western Railway. Work
was commenced in May, and by the Ist of the
present month the road, twenty-seven miles
long, was completed and turned over to the pro
prietors. We doubt if a parallel to this in dis- ,
patch can be found in the history of railroads.'.
The road was commenced in the midst of a
wood, and none of the usual conveniences for
building railroads brandi fug from other lines
existed in this instance. It was a uew road, in
thomidat of a forest, with which connection
has since been made with other lines. The road
runs from Corry to Titusville, a distance of
twenty-seven miles, running to and along Oil
Creek, terminating at the above named town.
At Cony it connects with the Philadelphia and
Brie railroad for Erie and the west, and also
with the Atlantic and Great Western railroad
from New - York direct. One passenger and one
freight train will run daily at present, but from
present appearances the business of the road will
speedily demand an increase of freight trains.
The wells on 011 Creek are now producing and
preparing for market over five thousand barrels
of oil daily, and most or all this will probably
seek a market over the Oil Creek Railroad.
By menu of this road the great oil regions
can be reached without the difficulty and =-
plum:linen hitherto experienced.

A Nsw COUNIIIRMT.-A counterfeit five
dollar note on the Farmer's and Mechanic's
Bank of Kent county, Md., has been recently
put in circulation, and is so well executed that
it may deceive the unwary. The centre cut
represents the interior of a blacksmith -hop,
with the smith workii gat the anvil Two
horses are being led into the door In the
right corner there is'a vignette of a female, and
in the left a representation of a sailor holding
a sextant. Quite a number of them, we under
stand, have been circulated.
I=l
Daarres Comma Bottom. Tzkortans.—The
Governor has received authority from the
War Department to discharge County Superin
tendents and teachers from the draft, and has
authorized the State Superintendent . f Common
Schools to give notice that if any teachers have
been drafted they will be discharged on for
warding to the Department of Common Schools
a certificate Figned by the president and secre
tary, or a majority of the members of the board
of directors, stating the fact that their with
drawal from their schools at the present time
would be injurious to the cause of education.
An advertisement, in another column of to
day's paper, contains full instructions how to
proceed to obtain a discharge, to which we ril
-1 fer all who may be interested.
Tam UMBRILLL.—This article, which has been
allowed to slumber in quiet nooks for a long
time, was brought out Sunday and displayed
on our streets in profusion. Speaking of the
umbrella, being in search of an item for a dull
day, we have been led to investigate the history
of this strange article, and find that it has been
used from a very remote antiquity, as is evi
dent from carvings and representations found
among ancient ruins of Persia, Arabia and
China. Nevertheless it was not used by men
in England until during the last century, and
it is said that Jonas Hanaway, who died in
1786, was the first person who used an umbrel
la in the streets of London. Even at that late
period, a man carrying an umbrella was an ob
ject of ridicule, and excited the jeers of the
people by his "effeminacy." Previous to the
introduction of umbrellas, the hackney-coach
was the shelter of unfortunate pedestrians who
happened to be caught in a shower ; but it was
customary, after their introduction, to keep
a single umbrella at each of the coffee-houses,
which, in cases of emergency, was lent, together
with a boy to carry it.
Tao JEWELRY BIIEINESE.-It may seem strange
to some of our readers that a few of those em
ployments whose success would seem to depend
rather upon luxury than comfort or necessity
should at present be flourishing. Among these
employments may be mentioned the jewelry
business. To be sure, some of the artisans in
this branch have turned their attention to
other pursuits, and workmen who once manu
factured jewel cases and other articles of a like
type, have modified their trades to something
more suitable to this war-like era. Still, jew
elers, some of them at least, are doing a babi
nem, and the fact may in part be accounted for
as follows : The government work has employ
ed a very great number of poor people, most of
whom are women or young girls. These belong
to a class which proverbially spends as fast as it
gets. They are more fond of show than of
humble and homely comforts, and think, fool
ishly, it is true, that a glittering bauble is
worth intrinsically more than a thick shawl or
stout shoes. Consequently, with their wual
improvidence, they have made a rush for trin
kets. Rings, brooches, ear-rings, have been in
demand, and, we presume, nose jewels would
also be in the market were uncivilised fashions
permissible. We would not have it inferred,
however, that the poorer classes have been the
only patrons of gold and gems. Another class
exists, which would bemoan the dearth of pearls
and rubies as much as its menials would miss
cast-off clothes and other perquisites. The
beauty has no thought of foregoing the bracelet
or the necklace, the diamond ring or the tur
quoise clasp. All classes thus influence and
interwork with each other. It is necessary
that this should be so, and though extravagance
is to be deprecated equally, in both rich and
poor, still there is in these expenditurea, as in
all human actions, a certain law, which must
and will obtain, and which, in the end, equal
izes the actions of each individual with those
of every other.

A Moon Eureausinssur.—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 Market and Fifth streets, 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 challenges 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
I the public. to visit the new building and exam
' Ins the extensive stock, whether they purchase
I or not.
Tllll BOUNTY FUND.—The following reports
the Auditing Committee on the part of the pen
pie, and of the Commissioners on the pelt of
the county, present the evidence of the Idthful
disbursement of the amount of mono placed in
the hands of Rudolph F. Kelker, Treasurer of
the Bounty Relief Fnod. The amount disbursed
was very large, while the character of the re
ceipts and disbursements at once required that
care and attention which must accompany all
financial operations to secure their success In
this Mr. Kelker has been eminently successful.
The adjustment of his account corroborates the
high character he has ever borne as a man of
integrity and business. In the name of the
people of this city and county, therefore, we
tender him the honorable acknowledgments
which his patriotic and laborious services so
justly deserve :

PENNSYLVANIA SS :
In the Name and by the Authority
OF THE
COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA,
ANDRI3 W G. CURTIN,
GOVERNOR OF THE MID COMMONWEALTH,
A PROCLAMATION.
Winausss, It is a good thing to render thanks
unto God for all His mercy and loving kind-
E=l
Therefore, I, ANDREW G. CURTIN, Governor
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, do re
commend that THURSDAY, THE 27th DAY OF
NOVEMBER NEXT, beset apart by the people
of this Commonwealth, as a day of solemn Prayer
and Thanksgiving to the Almighty :—Giving
Him humble thanks that He has been gracious
ly pleased to protect our free Institutions and
Government, and to keep us from sickness and
pestilence—and to cause the earth to bring
forth her increase, so that tar garners are
choked with the harvest—and to look so favor
ably on the toil of Hid children, that industry
has thriven among us and labor had its reward;
and also that He has delivered us from the
hands of our enemies—and tilled our °facers
and men in the field with a loyal and intrepid
spirit, and given them victory—and that He
has poured out upon us (albeit unworthy) other
great and manifold blessings :
.Beseeching Him to help and govern us in His
steadfast tear and love, and to put into our
minds good desires, so that by His continual
help we may havti a right judgment in all
things :
W. RENKY
♦nd especially praying Him to give to Obria-
Ilan chUrches grace to hate the thing which, is
evil, and to utter the teachings of truth 'Sad
righteousness, declaring openly the. whole
counsel of God :
And mist heartily entreating Him to bestow
upon our civil rulers, wisdom and earnestness
in council, and upon our military leaders, seal
and vigor in action, that the fires of rebellion
may be quenched—that we, being armed with
His defence, may be preserved from all perils,
and that hereafter our people, living in peace
and quietness, may, from generation to genera
tion, reap the abundant fruits of His mercy,
and with joy and thankfulness praise and mag
nify His holy name.
Given under my hand and the great seal of the
State, at Harrisburg, this Twentieth day of
October, in the year of oor Lord one thoneand
eight hundred and aisty-two, and of the
Commonwealth the eighty-seventh. _
