OuNBEQUENOBS of such a rain storm as that of yesterday—muddy streets, filthy pavements, and puldli s everywhere—tell better than all clauplaluts the woes of the people who are com pelled to traverse the etre& s of the State Cap. ital. 0nama.ma1.,,...•...• I, FRANK IBAOH, Of Columbia, left a package of printed documents in charge of some friend (name not known) in Harrisburg, in the month of March last. Any person who will make it known at this (ace, where said package can be found, will be suitably rewarded. d3te, I=l GEN. CAMERON IS iri Washington city, the guest of the Secretary of the Treasury. He has had a highly satisfactory interview with the President, and was received by the Gov ernment in a manner to prove the high appre ciation of his worth and services. IT WAS RAPORTBD on the street to-day, that Capt. James Gowan had been elected Lieut. Col. of one of the newly organized Cavalry Regi mente now forming in Camp Curtin. We hope this is true, as the Captain hes the grit to win glory If he is only given a proper opportunity. SALE ON PRATT'S IRON WORKS.—The Iron works of Messrs. Pratt & Son, in the lower part of the city, have been sold to Messrs. Charles A. Bailey, & Bro. & Co., who will fit them up immediately and set them in motion. These works have been lying idle for years past, and been an eye sore to the business men in the city. We are glad, therefore, that these enterprising men have purchased this establishment. They will employ a large number of men. This firm has won, for itself an extensive and a splendid repu tation, not alone for the magnitude of its ope rations, but the liberality with which it con dusts all its business enterprises. With this extension of an already extensive business, we of course date the enlarged prosperity of Har risburg. Lam D W. CRAMBKEtS.—We had the plea sure, to-day, of shaking by the hand Lieut. D. W. Chambers, who is to be located in this city as the recruitiug officer of the Third Regiment Heavy Artillery. What rendered Lieut. Chain bars more welcome to our sanctum is the fact that he finished kis trade as a printer in our es tablishment, leaving us with credit as a faithful and industrious compositor. Since then, Lieut. C. devoted himself to the study and the prac tice of the law, which he renounced to take up arms to defence of his country. He has many friends in this city, and cannot fail to draw to the standard which he now raises among his old comrades, many excellent and effective re cruits. Both for his regiment and himself, we are ready to render any assistance that will se cure success - -•t -- CAPTURE OF &MEOWS , PICKPOCKETS AT TILE DEPOT.—Counterfeit Money Discovered.—No less than nine different individuals answering to the following names : Charles English, Wm. Rich ards, Oscar Church, James Richards, Wm, Walters, James Coppy, John Smith, Emanuel Christ and Henry Creamer, were arrested last evening in and around the depots, under the suspicion of being pickpockets. All the indi viduals above named, except Christ and Crea mer, gave their residence as Philadelphia, Bal timore, Washington and New York, and judging from their movements, we have no doubt that they congregate around the depot, for no other purpose than to relieve strangers and passengers of their money. Several pockets were picked last night. Among the unfortunate was a widow who had gone for the remains of her husband who died in the army and whose body she was taking home. She lost a pocket book containing some $6O, a doctor's certificate of her husband's death, and several other papers. Considerable money was found on all the arrest ed parties, pnd persons who have been victim ized, had better examine the prisoners in jail, where they were ( ommitted for a further bear ing. Emanuel Christ, one of the above, says that he belongs to Pinegrove, came here with his cap tain to go into camp ; that he is a drafted man and knows nothing of the others. If this is correct, he will no doubt be discharged. Henry Creamer, who locates himself also at Pinegrove, had thirty-two dollars of counterfeit money In his possession, consisting of one $2 counterfeit note on the Union Bank of Dela ware, and six $6 notes on the Farmers' and Mechanics' Bank of Kent county, at Chester town, Maryland. The notes seem to be tamed from the five dollar plate of the Farmers' and Mechanics' Bank of Philadelphia, and is a good imitation. The latter was committed to await his trial at the next court. Officer Campbell, through whose instrumen tality these arrests were made, deserves great credit for his industry in trying to rid the city of a set of pickpockets, counterfeiters and scoundrels, who infest this vicinity, and who are robbing citizens and soldiers 'almost daily. We hope he may be properly recognized and re warded by the railroad companies, whose duty it is to run these fellows from their depots.

Persons anxious to avoid the draft will see by the following sp, cial notice that the act of pro curing a substitute frees the latter, but leaves the principal still subject to the draft: WAR DIPARTHINT, WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 1, 1862. "Hon. Silas Livermore, Guthrieville, Pa.: "Sim:—ln reply to yours of the 27th ult., desiring to be informed of certain questions appertaining to the draft, the Secretary of War directs me to say that, when a drafted man furnishes a substitute that is accepted, the two change places. The principal is liable to an• other draft, if made, just as he would be if he had not been drafted at first, and the substitute is bound by the first draft of the principal 'wit as if he had been drafted himself. Very respectfully, C. P. BUCKINGHAM, Brig. Gen. and A. A. G." The War Department wiltalso hereafter insist that drafted men, when procuring substitutes, shall obtain the consent of the substitutes to join the old regiments. This is the method adopted by the Department te bridge the diffi culty of filling up the old regiments. Hence forth all substitutes will be compelled to enter the old regiments, to remain for nine months. With this understanding the government will prefer substitutes to the original drafted men. GILT Fins.—Duiraction of ago Second Largest Eaw-Mill in the World, and about Four Hundred Thousand fed of Lumber.—About half-past twelve o'clock on Saturday night the immense saw-mill of Langdon, Divia & Co., at the west end of this borough, oommonly known as the " Big Water Mill," was discovered to be on fire, and before the flames could be checked it was burned to the water's edge, together with about four hundred thousand feet of sawed lumber. The night was excessively cold, and it was only by' the utmost exertions that our firemen and citi zens could prevent the flames from extending further into the millions of feet of boards piled upon the acres adjacent. The flames spread over the mill and consumed it re rapidly that an attempt to save any part of it or its contents was not to be thought of. The effort was made to save the sawed lumber on •hand, and it was remarkably successful. So great was the light 'caused by the conflagration that the streets of the town were illuminated in every part, and at Sunbury—forty miles distant—the light was plainly visible upon the °loads. The mill ex tended from the north bank of the river town island, and contained about one hundred and fifty saws. In size it was probably the largest saw-mill in the world, and its number of saws the second largest in the world. The loss is estimated at $50,000. The property destroyed was partly insured. All parties present agree that the fire was the work of au incendiary.— . .Lys:ming Gazette. LTP.IOB OF MI CAKE—Besides the stories of suffering and the deacriptions of deadly strife, that reach us from the army, we occasionally receive the evidence that our boys are not for getful of what is beautiful and animating in music and song. The following really stirring lines from Camp Dauphin; written by F. C. Schut, of Co. 0, 127th Regiment, P.

GEORGE BERGNER, Pres. °Liven EDWARDS, Sect'y. IT is PROPER to explain to the people that cop per, cents, nickel cents and, three -Cent pieces are all of them of much less intrinsic. value than the snm they represent, and that, consequently, the hoarding of them is unwise and injudicious. There mud, be an erroneous idea on this point prevalent in the community, or this currency would not have been withdrawn from circula tion ; and unless this idea can be correctcd, the free supply of the new postal currency will not entirely do away with the use of the old postage stamps, as change of smaller denomination than five cents must still be had and be used to con siderable extent. WHINEY AN] NRWSPAIPERS.-A glagS of whisky is manufactured from perhaps a dozen grains Of corn, the value of which is too aMall to be esti mated. A pint of this mixture sells for one shilling, and if, of a goodttand, is considered well worth the money. It is drank in a min uto or, two—it fires the brain, sharpens the ap petite, deranges and weakens the physical sys tem. Oa the same sideboard upon which this delicious beverage is served lies a newspaper. It is covered with half a. million of types—it brings intelligence from the four quarters of the globe. The newspaper wets less than the glass of grogLthe juice of a few grains of corn ; but it is no less strange than , true that there is a large portion of the community who think corn juice cheasi*id this zie*qiiiper! !• ;', 'reran PENNSYLVANIA HEAVY ARTILLERY.—We notice that Maj.

CONTEINTION. —At thesuggestion of the Pastoral Association of Harrisburg,, a number of Sunday School Superintendents and other friends of Sunday Schools who were in attendance at the annual meeting of the Dau phin county Bible Society,' assembled in the Presbyterian church at Dauphin, on the 18th of November, 1862, and organized a Sunday School Conveittitin, by calling to the chair Rev.
