THs Ermarinum or Mumma has been a source
of great annoyance to recruiting officers, who
are frequently imposed upon by parents and
those thus enlisting, Judge Grier, 11. S. Dis
trict Court, Pittsburg, has been rebuking some
of these, by compelling the service of an enlist
ed minor, where it was proven that a parent
had partly consented to the enlistment. The
Court insisted that the father of a tact nit, a
minor, who has been encouraged to enlist by the
partial consent of the father, can be held for
the full time.
FRIGHTFUL Ammer.— A frightful accident
transpired at the rope walk of Mr. Irwin, in the
First Ward, Allegheny, on Saturday afternoon
last, resulting in the aln3lat instant death of a
boy named George Campbell, employed in the
establishment. It appears that the deceased
was engaged in sweeping the floor in the vicini
ty of a large drum, when his clothing in some
way caught in the machinery, and he was
whirled around the drum some three times
before his rescue could be effected. His skull
was crushed, and his body so horribly mangled
that he died on the spot.

ONE OF THIS EXPLOITS OP THE PIOXPOIMITB.
A lady was recently accompanied to the depot
in this city, by a gentleman friend, and while
there she was cautioned to be vigilant and care
ful, as the locality was infested with pickpock
ets. She was satisfied when she was seated in
the cars, that her purse was safe, as she ima
gined that she had secreted it on her person in
a manner w defy the search or the manipula
tions of the most expert pickpocket. But lo !
when she reached the Elation on, the Lebanon
Valley Railroad, at which she was to leave the
cars, her purse was gone, with its contents of
$5O. This incident shows that those engaged
in pilfering on the different railroad lines and
at the different depots, are of the most expert
order of thieves. It is almost time that they
were ferretted out, arrested and punished.
TIM LIVING DEAD. —
We are surrounded by the living dead,
Men whose whole lives seem purposeless and
vain.
They're bubbles. In the air, husks 'mid the grain,
hitire walking flesh-piles, without heart or head.
They're dead as thoAeon whose graves we tread,
Long sears companioned with the flesh fat-
worm.
To 'bow they're men, they're nothing but the
form,
They are not worth their daily meat and bread,
The marvels of creation move them not;
As well preach Clod unto a fleshless skull.
Surrounded by the grand and beautiful,
They're cold as icy stone or mossy grot.
Their life's a dream, a festering in the sun,
Snatches from the working earth, who'd miss

Tna " POSTAL CURRENCY "—So called, we
suppose, because It IS receivable for postage
stamps—has become so abundant now that
there is no louger need for the sticky and incon
venient stamps which have grieved all neat and
cleanly persons since shortly after , the battlt s be
fore Richmond. In the shops they ate generally
refused, and in a short time they will disappear
altogether from circulation, to be remembered
only by the people as one of the inoonveniencies
resulting from the delay% and disasters of the
Peninsular campaign. That they were so im
mediately and generally taken into the cur
.reacy by the public, shows how readily an in
telligent people like the Americans adapt them
selves to sudden emergencies, and bow inge
niously they seize on the readiest means to ob
viate an unforseen inconvenience.
HORRIBLE ACCIDENT —The Waynesburg Mann
ger of the 12th inst. gives a description of a hor
rible accident which occurred in that county on
the 4th inst. Some nine persons, on the night
in question, started from the residence of Chris
topher Johns, near Newtown, Whiteley town
ship, for the purpose of taking a coon hunt.
They had not proceeded far before a coon was
treed. The boys began, by turns, to chop the
tree. part, as usual, were detailed to hold
the dogs. Some, too, were mere lookers-on.
All were standing diametrically opposite from
the direction they supposed the tree would fall.
At length the tree at which they were chopping
swayed and fell, carrying with it for some dis
tance, a dead poplar that stood near ; when,
becoming detached, in its rebound it broke off
near the ground ; and, horrible to relate, it
caught three of the boys beneath it, mangling
them in a dreadful manner, killing Franklin
Johns (son of Christopher Johns) instantly—
mortally wounding William Chalfant, (eon of
Ttitjah Chalfant,) so that he died while being
carried to the nearest house, and Injuring Marion
Calvert, (son of Marion Calvert) NO it tlittle
or no hope of a speedy recovery is eniertained.
Others of the party escaped very narrowly.

THE ROME of the drafted men in Camp Howe,
near Pittsburg, show that between five and six
hundred men are absent as deserters. Such

THB SHOOTING OF MAJOR PHSLIG.-01IF readers
will remember the alleged elopement of Major
Phelps, of the Fifth Virginia, and a married
man, with a Miss Dayton, and the pursuit of
the couple by her brother, who, when he came
up with the fugitives, shot the Major, produc•
ing injuries which at one time threatened his life.
The following card from Miss Dayton shows
that the lady is not over thankful to her broth
er for his inteference in her behalf. She says:
"I have been acquainted with Major thelpri;
of the Fifth Virginia regiment, since the 10th
of last January. At that time he took board
ing at my father's house, near New Creek,
Maryland. While at my father's house, be
never mid he was a preacher, or made any pre
tensions of the kind. He never deceived me
with relation to his being married, for within a
week from the time he came there to board he
informed me birds& that he had a wife and
two children at Burlington, Ohio. He never
induced me to leave my father's house, but I
left because my father was attempting to force
me to marry a man I did not love. I left home
of my own free will and accord, without any
compulsion or inducements whatever, except
as above stated I expect to earn my living by
the labor of my own hands, as I always have
done. lam able to take care of myself, being
twenty-three years of age, and I thank no , one
to either write or shoot for me. I learn that
Major Phelps is lying very low from wounds
received from my brother Major Dayton. The
assault of my brother, upon Major Phelps, was
positively unjust and uncalled for, upon any
principle whatever. I wish you to give, this a
place in your paper, injustice to Major Phelps."

The 17th Pennsylvania Cavalry and
its Commander.
One of the wise appointments of our ex
Genera and patriotic Governor, was that of
Captain Kellogg, recently, to the command of
the 17th Pennsylvania cavalry. It will be I
known to many of our readers, that the gal
lent Colonel is Scots-Irish in descent, and a
relative of the celebrated . Canadian, Sir Allen
MoNab. The Colonel is, by nativity, a patri
oticson of our own beloved Pennsylvania, having
been born at Erie, a quarter of a century ago.
The college of Geneva, N. Y., sent him out at
the age of "sweet seventeen" to West Point, I
where he gained many friends by an amiable
and truthful disposition, and made such pro
'grass in the then five years curriculum, now re
duced to four, that in a class of forty-two, be
graduated the thirteenth, in 1860. HO was
breveted second lieutenant in the First Eire=
goons, and remained for three months at Can
at the expiration of which he was dis
patched with some recruits to Washington
Territory, where he saw some brisk practice
with the Indians, and met with many roman
tic and spirit stirring adventures. Fort Walla
Walla was his immediate destination, but in
July, 1861, Gen. Sumner sent him to take com
mand of Fort Crook, and relieve an officer who
has since resigned and joined his friends in the
bogus Confederacy. In command of Fort Crook,
Kellogg had the honor to unfurl the glorious
banner of our country, where it had never
streamed before, and the occasion was at
tended with an incident that proved at once'
'his patriotism and illustrated the ascendant he
had gained over the brave spirits he comman
ded. After a time he was ordered east. The
Republic required his efficient services, and he
became Adjutant of the regiment in January,,
1862, and Captain in the June following. Nor
did he act an undistinguished role among the
immortal heroes, dead and living, whose un
sullied glory has adorned the great struggle to
annihilate high handed rebellion, and will,
more lasting than brass, or the regal pyramid,
sublimely stand engraven in the temple of
fame forever. He was in the bloody battle of
Williamsburg, the eangninary strife of Gaines'
Heights, where one third of his squadron offer
ed their lives a sacrifice on the altar of their
country, and died for the Union. Nearly every.
officer was killed, and the brave Kellogg sur ;
vived unhurt —like the three Hebrew children,
'mid the hottest fire, when his warlike steed
was killed under his rider by a death bringing
bolt, and the ranks of the, brave were thinned.
In the battle of White oak,Swatirp, freshlaur
refs were added his yafttliful brow, and,
nearly all the battles of .the seven days' "fight
before Richmond he acted a gallant part, .ani
mating the brave men of his command. He
was in the great battle of. Antietam, but his
force was not actively :engaged in that well
fought field. On the-17th of October ha was
appointed colonel of the Seventeenth Penns)*
vania Cavalry, and joined this fine regiment on
the 16th of November. The appointment
seems to be a most, fortunate one, and, the
Colonel is becoming very popular with the-offi
cers and men of his command, who will follow
him to every field with the confidence which
such a gallant leader never fails to inspire: ,The
Colonel is twenty-five years of age, five;feet
eight inches in height, .fair complexion, . dark
hair, eyes hazel, and he wears a well becoming
moustache. His forehead is expansive, andthe
cerebral developments inditate great inteltec=
tual activity. The general outline of features
is regular and very handsome, anc4 Aottpled
with the fact that he is unmarried, may be in
teresting to our lady friends to know, for, -
"Not his the form,nor his the eye
That youthful maidens want to fly." •
More of the
.indlant Colonel hereafter. At
present - hie Mat in In thi -inteiniant, anus a
patriot and a hero, our worthy Governor has
fitly amigued him an important command.
DR. Burrow, the celebrated En:11)&14)er, will

`HE language of nature and experience de
monstrates, that whoever would enjoy the
pleasures of food—the beauties of landscapes—
the joys of companionship—the richness of lit
erature—or the honors of station and renown—
must preserve their health.
The stomach is the receptacle of all nourish
ment, and the fountain from which all parts of
the body, derive sustenance. The effect of foul
injurious food entering the stomach, is to de
range the digestive organs, and produce headache,
loss of appetite, unrefreshed sleep, fcetid breath, low
spirits, feverish buratugs, constipation, incapacity to
perform any mental or physical duty, SfC., and are
the symptoms of that horrid disease
DYSPEPSIA,
Which assumes a thousand shapes, and points
towards a miserable life and premature decay. The
Medical Faculty has labored for generations to
discover reliable appetizers and the proper
means of overcoming stomachic derangements.
Certain ingredients have been long known as
partially effective. Among these were
CALISAYA BARK & St CROIX RUM
An invalid physician, sojourning in the tro

of the natives, gathered the recipe for the final
accomplishment of this most important end.
The article was first used as a private medicine,

I SIPORTA.NT CERTIFICATE.
Messrs. P. H. Duero.— Gentlemen :—I have
suffered terribly with Dyspepsia for three or
four years, and tried many remedies without
effrot. I had to abandon my profession, and
suffered greatly from everything I ate. I have
now tried the Plantation Bitters—they helped
me-•I continued their use, and am now nearly
a well man. I know of several similar cases.

Intelligent persons and physicians can judge
of the efficacy of the Plantation Bitters from
the following partial formula.

article as an Antido:e to Fever and Ague, In

wife of the Viceroy of Peru, having experienced
the beneficial effects of this Bark, sent it to
Europe in 1640. It was sold by the Jesuits for
the enormous sum of its own weight in silver, and
was thus called Jzscris' Fewness. In 16ii, Sir
John Talbot employed it with great success in
France, in the treatment of Fever and Ague,
Dyspepsia, Nervous Affections, Loss of Appetite,
Weakness and Debility, Palpitation of the
Heart, Diarrhoea, &c., under the name of Eng
lish Powders ; and in 1679, he sold the secret
of its origin to Louis XIV, by whom it was di
vulged. It is now a standard remedy in all
Pharmacopoeia, and is employed in preparing
the Plantation Bitters.

Another ingredient of remarkable and won-
derful virtue used in the preparation of these
Bitters, is a native of Brazil, and as yet un
known to the commerce of the world. A Span
ish writer says :
* a * o " administered with St.
Croix Rum, never fails to relieve nervous tre
mor, wakefulness, disturbed sleep, ix., and that
it is used with great effect by the Brazilians,
Spanish and Peruvian Ladies to heighten their
color and beauty. It imparts cheerfulness to
the disposition, vigor to the appetite, and bril
liancy to the complexion."
We withhold its name from the public for the
present.

The tonic properties of St. Croix Rum, and
its powerful invigorating effects, have been long
known to the physicians of the world.
Bilious, Intermittent and Chill Fevers, en
gendered by the change of water and diet of
travelers, particularly upon western rivers, are
prevented and cured by the Plantation Bitters.
They are also reliable to prevent sea sickness.
" &TUMID FRIEND.- Wilt thou send me
another dozen of thy Bitters? Nothing has
proven so beneficial to my invalid wife or my
self, as the Plantation Bitters.
Thy friend, ham, HOWLAND."
N.B.—The secret of the immense sale of the
Plantation Bitters, is their guaranteed purity.
The St. Croix Rum, and every article used, is
warranted perfectly pore, and the money will
. be returned if not as represented. . .
The Plantation Bitters are put up in unique
quart bottles; and sold by all respectable Darg
gists, Grocers, Hotels and Restaurants through
out the world. Be particular that every bottle
bears the fac simile of the Proprietor's signature.

ANDREW G. CURTI ff,
GOVERNOR OF THE SAID COMMONWEALTH,
A PROCLAMATION
Winnisss, It is a good thing to reader thanks
unto God for all His mercy and loving kind
ness :
Therefore, I, ANDREW G. CURTIN, Governor
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, do re
commend that THURSDAY, THE 271 h DAY OF
NOVEMBER NEXT, be set apart by the people
of this Commonwe a lth, 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 earnera are
choked with the harvest—and to look so favor
ably on the toil oi His children, that industry
has thriven among us and labor had its reward;
and also that He has delivered us front the
hands of our enemies—and filled our officers
and men in the field with a loyal and intrepid
spirit, and Liven 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 ear 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 aril-
titan churches grace to hate the thing which is
evil, and to utter the teachings of truth and
righteousness, declaring openly the whole
counsel of God :
And tte , st heartily entreating Him to bestow
upon our civil rulers, wisdom and earnestness
in council, and upon our military leaders, zeal
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 groat 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.'
