city, will be sold at publio sale at the Court

A GOOD APPOINTMENT.-Dr. Samuel D. Charl
ton, of this city, has been appointed one of the
Examining Surgeons for the decision of claims
to Pension. He is an able, accomplished and
faithful physician, whose reputation is not sec
ond to any man in his profession in this city.
In securing his services, the government has
gained an (,firer who will zealously discharge
his whole duty.

Bosansas in the different hotels of Boston
have a fund, and each hotel alternately invites
a certain number of the wounded soldiers in
the hospitals of that city, as are able to leave
their wards, to a Sunday dinner. By this
system the soldiers enjoy gond company
and a good dinner, once a week, at least. We
have not heard of any such movement among
the permanent boarders at any of the hotels la
this city When we do, we shall mike a note
of it.
SANFORD' B OPERA House WAS again crowded
last night with an audience whose loud ap
plause attests their appreciation of the perform •
ance, and the efforts of the energetic manager.
Mho Mollie Germon, the beautiful and accom
plished actress, appears every evening in a
variety of characters, and has won the esteem
of the playguiug public. The company appear
this and every evening during the week, and
we need nut longer urge our citizens to go, for
the Opera House has become an established
institution in our midst, and will attract crowds
of admiring and enthusiastic people so long as
it is under the present popular management.
A good bill is announced for to-night, and
another " j aria" may be expected.
IRON CARE FOR TIER PraNSYLVANLa RAILROAD.—
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company are haying
constructed several iron cars for the use of their
road. The inventor of this new vehicle claims
that it is many tons lighter than a wooden car,
and much stronger ; that it will last much
longer, and is almost entirely secure from acci
dent. If it came in collision with another, was
thrown off the track, or down an embankment,
or through a bridge, it might be badly dented,
but would remain whole. No loss of life could
occur from splinters, the breaking out of bot
tom, or top, or sides. There might be a jam
and a squeeze, I , ut nothing worse. Had iron
qkars been in use on the North Pennsylvania
Railroad, at the time of the terrible disaster
near Fort Washington, a few years since, one
of the moat horrible incidents of the calamity
would have been avoided. We allude to the
roasting to death of scores of poor creatures in
consequence of the wrecks of the cars taking
fire. There is nothing like iron.
THE DRATTED MEN AND THEIR ORGANDAIION.-
Some of our cotemporaries throughout the State
are filled with complaint, and express great ap
prehension lest the gallant and devoted men
who have so cheerfully submitted to the exac
tions of the draft, should be placed under the
command of incompetent and morally corrupt
leaders. The Reading Times is particularly se
vere on what it calls " a moderate sized army
of popinjays, dandies, squirts and loafers gen
orally," who infest this city, and who are en
gaged in all kinds of plots and plans to get po
sition as officers in the companies and regi
ments of drafted men. Our ootemporary is as
near right as he ever was, and we are humili
ated to make the confession. But we hope the'
drafted men will be on their guard, and refuse
to receive such " popinjays, dandies, squirts
and loafers" as their officers. So far as the ma
terial is concerned out of which these officers
are to be created, the judgment of the drafted
men themselves would revolt with horror at
going into battle under such leadership.—
Pruntards and gamblers are princes to some of
WI material thus retuned to, because the last
shakes of dissipation, lust and gaming, have
dieir illustration in the creatures thus aspiring
to the control of men. We write men, because
the drafted soldiers are mostly from a class of
the community that is not given to such ex
eesses—men whose confidence is easily gained,
because honest and unsuspecting themselves.
On the subject of this competition for com
mand, the Governor has the discretionary pow
er of rejecting whom he pleases and commis
sioning only such as are worthy and competent,
This descretion he is bound to exercise, if he is
true to his own sense of justice and that high
personal interest which he has taken in all that
concerns the private soldier. The soldier him
self must exercise, also, his own discretion.
What he knows concerning an aspirant for com
mand, before a commission has been issued, he
must lay before the Governor, and our word for
it, neither a drunkard, a loafer or an incompe
tantman will receive a recognition or command
front Andrew G. Curtin.
EXPLOSION OP A LOOOMOITVP.-A locomotive
on the New Jersey Central Railroad exploded
on Wednesday morning, injuring the fireman
very severely, and making a complete wreck of
the machinery.
TEEN TAX &AXE'S ON CNIOSEI AND DRAWL
The Commissiener has made a decision relative
to tax stamps on checks, drafts, notes, ikc. It
is of interest to every business man, and is as
follows:
TREAFURT DEPARTMENT, OPIIO■ OF INTERNAL
REVENUE, WARELINGTON, October 23, 1862.-1
would may, that when a maker of a check,
draft, note, or any other document, shall neglect
to put on the required stamp, it will not do for
the party receiving the same to affix the stamp
and cancel it, but it must be returned to the
maker for him to do it.
Ciao. S. Bourwurs, Commissioner.
HALLOWRIN. —lf the spirits of the dead were
to revive and set themselves to writing locals
on the present theme, we might expect a very
curious melange from such a collection. Hallo
ween Is thought to be a time when witches,
devils, and other mischief making beings are
all abroad on their baneful midnight rounds.
Those aerial people, the fairies, in particular,
are said on that occasion to hold a solemn con
vocation, a grand anniversary. Burns has cele
brated in a style in which no other poet can
hope to do the inimitable fancies and freaks
which mark the period of hallowtide and dis
tinguish it from all other festivities.
However much it may have been observed
elsewhere and at other times, it is certain we
have gradually discontinued the merry-makings
which once made a wild carnival out of the oc
casion. Our modern orgies are limited to
family parties, or email companies ; chivalrous
old gentlemen no longer emulate each other in
exploits with the bottle, and Halloween, once
the night of so much uproarious merriment,
has now simmered down for the most part into
prim respectability. Still there is enough to
separate and distinguish it from all other even
ings of the year. It is the hour when street
boys club together and ring multitudinous door
bells, hiding up alleys and behind corners, and
exploding into shrieks of laughter at the ulti
mate success of their tintinabulations. Surely
Poe must have written his song of the bells on
such a night. It is the hour also when servants,
after waiting for the sixth summons of the clap
per or knocker, at length stealthily preparing
for answer, hide in ambush, and make a sudden
sally upon the impertinent foe.
Among some families where jollity is the
order of the day, and the reign of some Lord
of Misrule is sought for, the goodly custom of
celebrating Halloween yet survives, and is en
tered Into with zest by both old and young.
Fmaily gatherings, met for the sole purpose of
enjoyment, revive, at least for a while, the
spirit of the past. A very engaging device is
to suspend from the ceiling a rope, to which Is
attached a little scaffolding of candies or apples,
and require each of the company, the hands
being tied, to grasp the fruit with the teeth.
Such glaring and gleaming of shoulders, necks
and arms, such twinkling of saucy eyes, such
rows of glittering teeth, aad kiss-suggesting
lips, such beautiful distortions of feature, as
we have seen on these interesting occasions
Naming apple-seeds can be made entertaining.
"One I love, two I love, three I love, I say,"
is a very beautiful sentence when the one
within earshot happens to be the number allu
ded to. Walking down stairs backwards, with
a mirror held before one, is suitable for old
maids, and blowing petals from flowers Is very
attractive in young ones. The Philopena, if
taken in the German style, and not in our En
glish one, becomes excessively amusing, not
only to the parties immediately interested, but
also to all observers. One custom, however,
we strongly recommend—that which relates to
the arts employed by the lasses to discover the
persons and names of their buns. Surely, if
there is a time fitter than any other for a wo
man to look beautiful, It is such a time as that.
Young ladies, all look your prettiest to-night,
and amongst all your male acquaintance do
not fail to discover who's who. Bright lights
and judicious toilette can transform a plain
woman into a pretty one, a pretty woman' into
beautiful one, and a beautiful woman into per
fection itself.
It is amusing to recall the thousand and one
oddities which once marked the incoming and
outgoing of Halloween. The holiday annals
of our country, and consequently city, are not
so full in this respect as those of others. In
olden times, maids and matrons, bachelors and
boys, all acted in concert ; but alas,
"Golden lade and girls all malt,
Like chimney-sweepers, come to dust !"
and so their customs have come to dust like
wise. Then they used to dive with their
months for apples in tubs of water ; they crack
ed nuts, and drew cabbages ; they took pills
compounded of butter and sugar, mixed with
grated hazel-note and nutmegs ; they haunted
church doors at midnight, and exercised visions
with versicles ; they mounted on poles biasing
faggots of heath and broom and flax-dressings;
they made immense bonfire' among the furze,
with swimming beakers and flowing cups of
ale; they invoked the sea-god, standing in the
surf at twilight ; they gave alms, they jingled
bells, and they sprinkled water ; they drank
white wine, and they drank ale and milk min
gled with apples roasted and brand ; they told
fortunes from the tracks of snails among ashes,
they supped off parsnips, and made dumb
somas, seed and oat cakes, which they kept
like the show-bread in the Bible. Pastries and
pancakes, apple-parings and lemon-peels, hemp
seed and green peascods, sprigs of ash and lady
birds, and a hundred other things formed the
sum of their entertainments. The devices of
the maidens for finding out their own true loves
loves were infinite. Nowadays,' however, true
are either very scarce or they are past finding
out. Mammas genera* settle this thing, and
who shall say that, after all, this is not the
most genteel method !
The gentle judgment of mamma entirely su
percedes all solicitude on the part of the daugh
ter. If, indeed, there were any troth in the
prescribed forms of old by which the spirits of
the absent or departed were invoked, how ,
many of those who met their doom, either in
the camp, in the hospital, or in the field,
would be conjured to-night to render back a
voice of the past ! We sincerely hope that this
could be done, and so brighten with dear mem
ories the fleeting hours' of Halloween.

FRAUDS AT CAMP Cuirmi.—The following
statement hom the Cambria Tribune of today,
seems to corroborate certain charges brought
against an examining surgeon at Camp Curtin,
who was promptly discharged from the service,
when the facts were brought to the notice of
Surgeon General King. The Mane alleges
that returned conscripts from Harrisburg report
that discharges are obtained for much less than
substitutes can be hired. The endue operandi
is said to be thus : d bargain is made with a
lawyer for whatever the conscript or his friends
can spare,- from twenty-tive to one hundred dol
lars. The lawyer then consults the examining
Surgeon, the conscript is brought in, and no
difficulty is met with in obtaining a disability
certificate. The inference, of course, is, that
the lawyer divides his fee with the Surgeon,
which enables him to see defects in the con
script not visible to other eyes, and the man is
discharged, The arrest and dismiessil of an ex
amining Surgeon named Whitely, on Wednes
day, charged with receiving fees for examining
conscripts and substitutes, gives color to the
many stories we have heard to this effect.
We are sorry that the legal fraternity should
be connected with this business, for in the pr -
fession of the law, Harrisburg boasts of as hon
orable attorneys as there are in the Union.

GOVERNOR OF THE SIB COMMONWEALTH.
A PROCLAMATION.
Wilma., It is a good thing to render thanks
unto God for all His mercy and loving kind-
Therefore, I, A2iDaliif G. Cuarts, Governor
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, do re
commend that THURSDAY, THE 27th DAY OF
NOVEMBER NEXT, be set 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 our garners are
choked with the harvest—and to look so favor
ably on the toll of His 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 officers
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 fear and love, and to put into our
minds good desires, so that by His continual
help we may have a right judgment in all
things : •
And especially praying Him to give to Chris
tian churches grace to hate the thing which is
evil, and to utter the teachings of truth and
righteolumess, declaring openly the whole
counsel of God :
And most heartily eatreating 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 our Lord one thousand
eight hundred and sixty-tw ), and of the
Commonwealth the eighty-seventh.
