soldiers in the hospitals of Philadelphia, may
always be had by application to Jos. Parker,
Chief of the Hospital Commission, at the
rooms of the Young Men's Christian Associa

THE Harrisburg branch of the Christian
Commission urgently call for contributions,
in view of the fearful destruction of the past
few days, in the Army of the Potomac.' Let
not our wounded heroes be forgotten.
Contributions may be sent to R. A. Lam
berton, treasurer.
DIEM; is a fine programme for to-night's
entertainment at Hitchcock's National Hall.
The new company attracts large audiences,
and the 'plays, songs,_dances, &c., are pre
sented in fine style. Mr. Hall, the stage man
ager, has an eye to pleasing the public, and
thus far has succeeded admirably. Go to the
National, and drive the blues away.
LET THERE BE LIGHT. —A. number of persons
who are compelled to go home Fria Third
street, late at night, have requested us to call
the attention of the city authorities to the fact
that there a no lamps along the above street,
between Walnut and North. Measures should
be taken at once to accommodate those of our
citizens who frequent that portion of the town.

DISTRESSMG ACCEDET.—On Monday hist, as
a boy; aged nine years, sou of Henry Shettrer,
of Orrstown, was returning from mill with a.
two-horse wagon, the horses became fright

wagon, the wheels of which passed over him,
breaking both arms, and injuring him inter
nally to such a degree that he died on Monday.

THERE, is scarcely anything occurring here
worthy of note, the war news absorbing the
attention of our citizens generally. Conse
quently it is exceedingly difficult to present,
in this department of our paper, the usual
variety of local news, and we give up as much
space as possible to the reports from the seat
of war.
SINFORD ' S TROIIPE.-If good singing is at
tractive then you can find it at Sanford's Op
era House. The first part of the performance
introduces fen male and female performers,
giving the best vocal music that has ever been
presented by any minstrel troupe that has
visited this city—after which an olio of songs,
dances, &c.; also the EXEMPTS, by three ladies
and three gentlemen—concluding with San
ford's Bone Squash. As M.r. S. is proprietciri
of this opera and the only man who performs
it, you can have no better opportunity than
to see him to-night.

A Box of such articles as wounded soldiers
require, is about to be made np here by the
Ladies' Union Relief Association. Presum
ing that all members will desire to contribute,
they can do so by sending such 'articles as
will carry safely, to the house of John H.
Briggs, 'Esq., so that they may be packed to
morrow. At this season it is well known that
nobody has a large supply on hand, but one
cup of jelly or one can of tomatoes or pickles
from each person, or some dried rusk, sugar,
lemons, tamarinds, Vic., will soon fill a box.
Let us do what we can. M. S. BEATTY, -

MOH AVPHECIATION OF A. WOIRiDED SOLD=
BY THE COUANDANT AT THIS POST.—We:
were called on this morning by a highly in
telligent young man, who had lost an arm in
the struggle to crush the slaveholders' rebel
lion. It seems that he had been induced. to
leave a temporary situation in Mile delphi a?and
was encouraged to come to Harrisburg, with
the intimation that he could get employment
in the office of Colonel Bamford. He ac
cordingly made application to that officer for
a clerkship, his papers recommending him
being of the best ever put on file for a similar
purpose; but his application was rejected, and
a civilian appointed in his stead, who had
never seen a day's service in the army. We
make this statement entirely on the represent
ation of the soldier thus shabbily treated.
The whole transaction is very Itomfordieh,
and is another fact added to the already accu
mulated evidence in favor of a change of
com
manders at this post. The wounded menof
the army are entitled to all places in the mili
tary service; of a clerical character. 'T. fey,
should be preferred, at least, when making
application for such places, to civilian appli
cants.
Tux, Lanams OF HAHRISBURG would do well

THE only topic of conversation in our city
is the great struggle now progressing in Vir
ginia. Our office is continually besieged by
crowds of individuals in search of news. The
extras issued are greedily '=gobbled" up, and
hurriedly perused. Even the midnight hour
witnesses the inquiry, "What is the latest ?"
'Riose who have friends in the gallant army
of the Union are doubly anxious to hear the
news, and sleepless nights are passed in anx
iety in regard to those brave men who are
facing the death-dealing missiles of the ene
my. When the list of the slain is made pub
lic, thousands of wives and children, who are
now in suspense, will mourn the loss of hus
bands and fathers, - who have fallen in the field
of battle. The instigator's of this wicked re
bellion will have to atone for the murder of
the loyal hosts whose lives have been and will
be lost, and the wails of countless
_widows
and orphans will_ cry for vengeance! There
is a terrible end in store for the rebels in the
North as well as the South.
A FIGHTING REPORTER.—The Philadelphia
North American, of yesterday, contained the
following concerning one of its reporters :
A former attache of the North American,
Mr. John E. Norcross, was drafted in the first
Congressional district. He jammed the points
of his steel pen into his table, threw his ink
stand at a cat upon the shed, and instantly
reported himself for duty. He was the first
white conscript in the district to do so. Asa
Utember of Col. Thomas' regiment, he had
twice gone to the frontier. He read of the
lasi invasion while in Parii. He packed up
his 'wardrobe, consisting of a pair of drawers
and three dickeys, and returned by the fast
steamer to Philadelphia. He joined his regi
ment at Carlisle. He did his duty as adju
tant's clerk in the camp for drafted men, and
is now appointed a lieutenant in the 25th
S. colored troops. • He will leave to-morrow
for New Orleans.
,
Bolorrirs.—The May magazines give the
following descriptions of Spring bonnets.—
Upon reading them we suppose the ladies un
derstand what they . mean—we don't. We can
answer for it that they are all beautifub-when
filled out with a pretty face:
1. Bonnet of drawn-cuir-colored crepe,
trimmed in front with a fanchon of white lace,
loops of green ribbon, and Scotch feathers.
The inside trimming , is of bright flowers, of

white lace, mixed with searlet berries 'lliad
fancy grasses. A black lace barb is tied in

They render the Gums hard and healthy; neutralize the

In fact they are THE BEST ARTICLES in use for the pur

as has been abundantly proved by their extensive sale in
this community during the last 14 years; and which will
be readily testified to by many who have repeatedly
