the incidents of the three days' battle around
Gettysburg. FroM all accounts, this lecture
will prove very instructive and entertaining,

no charge for admission.
ROBIIEBY.—Last night one of the thieving
fraternity entered the cedar ware shop of F.
Trace, on Second street, and went 'up stairs,
where he robbed one of the workmen of a
pocket book containing about ten dollars. The
entrance was effected by means of nippers, as
the key bears marks of the instrument used.
The _gentleman who was robbed, had, forth_
nately, taken fifty dollars from his pockei
book yesterday. He change(k a bill for some
one, and believes that the thief was present
and saw his money—hence the robbery.
THE 17mosr SABAATEC Sumo!, for colored
persons, will be held at the Masonic Hall, in

at 1 o'clock and closing at 3 o'clock in the
afternoon. Adults, men and women, are in
vited to attend the school, arrangements being
made to have its exercises and instructions
adapted to them. Also,.itt the seine place,
froni 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock in the afternoon of
every Sabbath, instruction will be given to
such adults, especially to those desirous of
learning to read. "
Loos otrr Fon Fnins.—The latter part of .
March and the beginning of April is the sea
son most prolific of fires. The action of the
sun and the winds upon the roofs of buildings
render them as inflammable as tinder ; and
consequently the utmost care is necessary to
prevent the destruction of property by fire.—
Persons should be very careful of the manner
in which they make fires in their houses. The
too free use of light wood may prove a calami
ty. Imperfect flues should be remedied, and
the practice of running stove-pipes through
ceilings, and even out of the roof,•should be
avoided. It will be well to look to this
matter.
TEE OLDEST ARMY Correacroa. DT THE
COUNTRY.—SciIm Noble, the present contractor
for furnishing Carlisle barracks with beef,
maybe regarded as the oldest army contractor
in the country, or as coming from a family
of men who have filled contracts with the
Government for many years. The father of
Ur. Noble supplied Carlisle •barracks 'with
beef as early as 1811—and was the Contractor
for making up that portion of the commissary
stores for the troops which went to the aid'of
the army then operating, on the Canada lx)r",
den John Noble suceeededhis father. and is'
new: es__we have mentioned, the beef Atm.'
tractor of the barracks. These facts indicate
that the Noble family have been faithful in
their dealings with the Government, or they-
would not thus long have remained in its em=`
ploy.

HrroacocK's NATIONAL 11-1 LI.; 011 Second
street, will open on Monday evening, with a
first-class company. This hall, which is en
tirely new, is fitted up with magnificent
scenery. No doubt this new place of amuse
ment will attract large crowds. See adver
tisement.
A SPLENDID OPENING FOR VETERAN VOELTN
TEERS. -,We direct attention to general orders
No. 20, issued from the headquarters of the
Department of the Susquehanna, as offering
superior inducements to veteran volunteers to
enter the ."First Battalion Three Years' Penn
sylvania Volunteers." It is an arm of the
service affording rare opportunities for men
who seek distinction and promotion.
"TAKE a Cean?"—Owing to the popularity
of that very beautiful, interesting and instruc
tive play, The Factory Girl, the management
of Rouse's Star Combination Troope have
concluded to repeat it once more, this season.
This evening it will be presented to our citi
zens for the last time. Miss Fanny Denham
will appear as Martha Gibbs; Mr. Jennings
as Stephen Plum; Mr. Rouse as Toby Twin
kle, &c. It is unnecessary for us to say any
thing in recommendation of the Star Troupe,
as it rcommends itself. Do not fail to go to
Brant's Hall to-night. - The season may soon
close, and you will regret missing a rich treat.

SANFORD'S OPERA HousE.—Notwithstanding
the great success Sanford is meeting with, he
stops at nothing, but is continually producing
novelties. To-night another new member ap
pears, and to-morrow (Saturday) the great
show pantomime of Mother Goose, which will
surpass anything ever gotten up in this city.
Monday night a Mr. Fredericks, a gentleman
of this city, appears in several of his songs,
&c. This combination of Sanford will cer
tainly meet with great success. -He isdeter
-
mined that as his place is the pioneer of
amusements, it shall be the head and front in
attraction.
CLOSING SF.ItSION.—The Middletown .Thurnal
says: Rev. D. A. L. Laverty, pastor of the
Bethel Church of this place, will preach his
farewell sermon on next Sunday evening. He
has been connected with this chnrch, as its
pastor, for three years; during which time he
labored zealously and faithfully in the minis
try, and was instrumental in leading many
souls to Christ. He is a warm, extempora
neous speaker, possessed of many winning
virtues,. and has made hosts of friends in this
place. He has been appointed to take charge
of the Bethel congregation at Harrisburg,
where he will no doubt soon become as pop
ular and as highly esteemed as he is here.
ARTIST Gossip.—Madame Elena D'Angri,
who sings here next week,at Gottschalk's con
cert, has amassed a fortune of $150,080, in
an operatic career of twenty years. She has
another fortune yet %in her throat. Gott
schalk himself must be now "very wealthy.
He has given in America atleast one thousand
concerts, and cannot have made less than
550,000. Besides this, he has been very for
tunate in Wall Street, between which and Des
combo's, he alternates his time while in New
York.
His marriage with that beautiful and 'rich
heiress in the Fifth Avenue, which we an
nounced a short time ago, has, we learn, been
indefinitely postponed. Gottschalk is too shy;
he has been frightened by the premature an
nouncement, and fears that the world will
accuse him of marrying „for money. He
would thus nobly sacrifice his feelings, rather
than the world should misjudge them.
ARREST 01/ "BOUNTY JIINPERE "—Quite a stir
has been created in certain circles, by the ar
rest of a party of bounty jumpers—or, in
other words, men who enlisted apparently to
serve their country, while their--only object
was to obtain the bounty money and then de
sert. The following persons have been taken
in charge by the military authorities here, and
will be properly dealt with, viz:
John Smith,. of New York; John Billings,
Philadelphia; James Chute, New Jersey; Wm.
Green, New Jersey; James Sloven, New York;
Joseph rmg, Pennsylvania; John Cass, Phil
adelphia; Charles Wiley, New Jersey; James
Wiley, Philadelphia; Alex. Gildersleve, Phila
delphia; Henry Keller, Pennsylvania; Alex.
M'Shokey, Philadelphia ' • Richard Brown,
Philadelphia; Hones Woodruff, Philadelphia.
The manner in which these men operate, is
to enlist, be mustered in, uniformed, and re
ceive the goverameat tuld local bounties; then
at the fust opportunity throw off the uniform
and skedaddle, for the purpose of repating
the game elsewhere. It is hoped that they
may all receive their just deserts.
GorrsciteDr's, Commers. --It is hardly neces
sary to remind our lovers of music , that this
great American pianist will give two concerts,
on Monday and Wednesday evenings next, at
the Court House. He is the genius of the
piano, one of the very small number of those
who possess all the divers elements which
confer on the professor the sovereignty of that
instrument; and we sincerely express the opin
ion given by Fiorintino, one of the most re
nowned French critics, that "after Gottschalk
nothingremained to be desired." His composi
tions have a great charm in their high and pos
itive originality. Every conceit given by him
to crowded houses only seems to enhance the
value of his performances, and serves to kin
dle anew the enthusiasm of the dilletanti for
his brilliant and inimitable entertainments.
There has never been in this country a better
sustained reputation 'than that of Mr. Gott
schalk, as the master of the piano-forte; and
yet it has been made by no pompous an
nouncements, or well puffed charlatanism of
any sort whatever. llfr, Gottschalk will be
assisted on both nights Ithe great contralto,
Madam D'Angri, anal tke highly successful
and young violinist, Garlo• Patti. The sale of
reserved seats commences this morning, at
Knoche's music store, and we expect to see
the house as full as at his last cobcarts.
Deficiency of our Fire Depart
ment--Its Wants.
Eorroa :—n is Very important for the
protection of our property, that we should
have a well organized and efficient fire depart
ment, fully supplied with the best appFatus'
that modern improvements have furnished.
One of theca is the steam fire-engine. It is
true we have one already located in this . city,
(Friendship,) which rendered great and most
efficient service at the late fire. During that
conflagration it was fully manifested that the
former glory of the hand engine is "played
out." Human muscle cannot compete with
that mighty agent, steam, and that the useful
ness and efficiency of the old hand engines
are reduced far below the modern improve
ment, and our immediate urgent necessities.
The fact is well -known by you, Mr. Editor,
as well as to every other citizen, that the
working firemen in this city are generally men
who own no property. They were ever ready
and willing, heretofore, to leave their work
shops or homes at any hour in the day or
night, cheerfully yielding up their time, and
to endanger if not to sacrifice their health for
the sole purpose of saving or rescuing from
danger the property of their fellow-citizens
from the devouring element, and this, too,
without the "expectation of fee or hope LI re
ward." But since the introduction of the
steam engine, that class of men will not man
the brakes of the hand engines, as they for
merly did. They say let the citizens who own
the property procure steamers in this city, as
is done elsewhere. There is.no longer any
necessity for us to pull and tug at the brakes,
and to beconie, as is generally the case, unfit
ted for work for several days after
wards. This fact was fully demon
strated at the late fire in Strawberry
alley, for with all tEe personal iipplications,
pleading and - intercessions of our citizens and
officers of the several fire companies to the by
standers at that fire, the hand engines could
not be sufficiently manned to render them as
effective as they should havif been, although
there were great numbers of able bodied men
there present. lam creditably informed that
a committee from the Hope fire company No.
2, is now in Philadelphia, with the view of ex
amining and purchasing a first class steamer
for this city. I am also informed that peti
tions are in circulation and being rapidly sign
ed by our leading citizens, asking our Common
Council to make an appropriation of money to
cover the cost, or if not in funds, to issue
city bonds for the amount required. I am
satisfied that his Honor the Mayor, would at
once approve of such an ordinance. The
emergency requires it. There should be im
mediate, united and energetic efforts to meet
such emergency. None of ns know or can
tell what property may be next put in jeopardy,
nor how soon the torch of the incendiary may
be applied to our own or neighbor's property;
and therefore the neeessity for immediate ac
tion. Ido not believe that it is expedient to
raise the money to pay for the steamer by pri
vate subscription—although 'I have no doubt
that it couldbe - done, as many of. our citizens
are
. proverbial for theil liberality for all worthy
projects, and thiS is -certainly such - an one,
none more so. By an appropriation of the
necessary min by the City Council this money
will come out of the City Treasury, and thus
each property holder will pay his just and
equal proportions of this absolutely necessary
expenditure.
I am (as you, Mr. Editor, well know) a
pretty large tax payer, and go in, earnestly,
anxiously go in, for -the purchase of at least
one more steam fire engine, as being abso
lutely indispensable for the protection of our
property, if not the lives of our citizens. I
believe all unnecessary delay or procrastina
tion on this subject to be unwise. Delays, it
is said, are always dangerous, and nowhere
can they be more so tlninneglecting sufficient
and suitable apparatus to meet the recurrence
of the repeated incendiary fires with which
we have been So recently scourged. Whilst
we axe hesitating about the propriety of mitr
ing, discussing its cost, &c., the incendiary
torch may be applied, and in half an hour or
an hour property may be consumed to the
extent in value of at least ten foldthe amount
of the cost of an efficient steam engine, which
a
loss might, to great extent,have been guarded
against and prevented by timely, necessary
and prudent action. Who that witnessed the
late fire in Strawberry alley will deny, that if
the night had been windy, property to a very
large amount would have been destroyed?
Calm, as the night fortunately happened to
be, all unbiassed, impartial men will admit,
that a much, greater destruction of property
would have ensued but for . the efficient ser
vice of the only steam fire engine within tho
limits of the city. •
Another reason why the steamer should at
once be procured may be also properly re
ferred to. That is the well known fact that a
very large proportion of our gallant firemen
are now serving under the flag of the Union,
and consequently unable to render to us that
efficient service they have hitherto so cheer
fully done. At this time, owing to the cause
just mentioned, many of the companies have
not the men necessary to work their hand en
gines. And that their places cannot be sup
plied when the danger is present, was most
abundantly manifested at thelast incendiary
conflagration. Let all of us, fellow citizens,
be warned in time. TAX PAYER.

fruitful field to sow and garner a large harvest
in the economy of man's happiness and well

PINE TREE
TAR CORDIAL
IS THE VITAL PRINCIPLE OF THE PINE TREE,
Obtained by a peculiar process in the dis
tillation of the tar, by which its highest mal
ice] properties are retained.
Have you a Cough ? Have you Sore Throat
Have you any of the premonitory symptoms
of that most fatal disease, Consumption?
- Those who should be warned* by these
symptoms generally think lightly of them
until it is too late, From this fact, perhaps
more than any other, arises the sad preva
lence and fatality of lisease which sweeps to
the grave at least "one-sixth" of death's
victims.
Consumption has destroyed more of the
human family than any other disease, and the
best physicians for many years have despaired
of a cure, or a remedy that would heal the
lungs, but for more than two hundred years
the whole medical world has been impressed
that there was a mysterious power and effi
ciency in the Pine Tree Tar to heal the lungs;
therefore they have recommended the use of
Tar Water, which in many cases had a good
effect; but how to combine the medical pro
perties so as to heal the lungs, has ever been
a mystery until it was discovered by Dr. L.
Q. C. WISHART, of Philadelphia, Pa., the
proprietor of "Wishart's Pine Tree Tar Cor
diaL"
Many, not only of the people, but physi
cians of every school and practice, are daily
asking me, "What is the principle or cause of
your success in the treatment of l'ubmortary
Consumption ?" My answer is this:
The invigoration of the digestive organs—
the strengthening of the debilitated system—
the purification and enrichment of the blood,
must expel from the system the corruption
which scrofula breeds. While this is effected
by the powerful alterative (changing from
disease to health) properties of the Tar Cor
dial, its healing and renovating principle is
also acting upon the irritated surfaces of the
lungs and throat, penetrating to each dis
eased part, relieving pain, subduing inflamma
tion, and restoring a healthful tendency. Let
this two-fold power, the healing and the
strengthening, continue to act in conjunction
with Nature's constant recuperative tendency,
and the patient is saved, it he has not too
long delayed a resort to the means of cure.
I ask all to read the following certificates.
They are from men and women of unques
tionable worth and reputation: -
Da. Wismor—Dear had a very
dreadful cough and sore throat for one year,
and my whole system was fast giving way, and
I was prostrated on my bed with but little
hope of recovering. My disease baffled the
power of all medicines, and in a short time I
must have gone to my grave, but thank God,
my daughter-in-law would not rest until she
went to your store, No. 10 N. Second street,
and related my case to you, purchased one
bottle of your Pine Tree Tar Cordial and I
commenced to use it, and in one week I was
much better, and after using three bottles I
'am perfectly well, and a wonder to all my
friends, for they all pronounced me past cure.
Publish my case if you think proper.
REBECCA 14 - AInLTON,

Dr. Wishart'sPiue Tree Tar' Cordial is an
infnlliahle cure for. Bronchitis, Bleeding of
the Lungs, Sore Throat and Breast, Inflamma
tion of the Lungs.
Mr. WABD says:
WrsaLux—Sir:---I had Bronchitis, In
ation of the Lungs, Sh'ortness of Breath,
and Palpitation of the Heart in their worst
forms; I had been treated by several of the
most eminent physicians in Philadelphia, but
they could not stop the rapid course of my
disease, and I had despaired of ever being re
stored to health. I was truly on the verge of
the grave. Your Pine Tree Tar Cordial was
highly recommended to me by a friend; I
triedit, and am thankful to say that, after
using four large, and one small, bottles, I - was
restored to perfect health. You can give re
ference to my house, No. 968 N. Second street,
or at my office of Receiver of Taxes, from 9
A. 3!. to 2 - 1.. AT., corner of Chestnut and Sixth
streets. JOHN WARD.
Read the following from Utica:
Da. Wismar—Dear Sir:—l take pleasure
in informing you through this source that
your Pine f ree Tar Cordial, which was recom
mended for my daughter by Dr. J. A. Hail, of
this city, has cured her of a cough of more
than five monthe• standing. I bad thought
her beyond cure, and had employed the best
of medical aid without any benefit. I can
cheerfully recommend it to the public as a safe
and sure remedy for those similarly afflicted,
as I know of many other cases besides that of
my daughter thatit has entirely cured of long
standing coughs. Yours respectfully,
JOHN V. PARKER, Daguerrean Artist
126 Genessee street, Utica, N. Y.
* * * :—I have used Dr. Wishart's
Pine Tree Tar Cordial in my family, and can
cordially recommend it as a valuable and safe
medicine for colds, coughs and to those pre
disposed to consumption.
Dr. G. A. FOSTER, 160 Genessee street,
Utica, New York.
The above are a few among the thousands
which this great remedy has saved from an
untimely grave.
We have thousands of letters from physi
cians and druggists who have prescribed and
sold the Tar Cordial, saying that they have
never used or sold a medicine which gave
such universal: satisfaction.
The Tar Cordial, when taken in connection
with Dr. Wishart's Dyspepsia Pills, is an in
fallible cure for Dyspepsia.
The PE NE Tans TAD CORDIAL, will cure
Coughs, Sore Throat and Breast, Bronchitis,
Asthma, Whooping Cough, Diptheria, and is
also an excellent remedy for diseases of the
kidneys andfemale complaints. -
