LAST evening the Provost Marshal of this
post took possession of the Inland Telegraph
office in this city, and placed the operators
under arrest. A guard was placed in charge
of the office, which still remains closed. We
learn that the offices along the entire line of
the Inland Company were seized by the mili
tary authorities - . It is supposed that this
course was adopted for the purpose of discov
ering whether the bogus proclamation pub
lished in the New York papers of yesterday,
had passed over the line.
REV. J. WAIAKER JAMISON AT DICKIXSpN
Coramox.' We understand that one of the so
cieties composed of the students of Dickin.-
son College, has invited the Rev. 3. Walker
Jackson,' of this city, to deliver an address at
the commencement of that college. We are
not advised as to the subject upon which our
Reverend friend will discourse, but we '-can
assure our friends of the Dickinson; that he
will make their lecture room resound with an
eloquence never excelled within those classic
precincts. The commencement will take
place on the 29th of June ensuing.
THE NINETY-THIRD REGIMENT. We learn

and their friends will be in Suspense-until the

ARREST OF TZLEGnamErts.—Yesterda.y after
noon, Col. Ingralum's detectives arrested
eleven telegraph operators at the raincipal and
branch offices of the Independent. CoropfirLy,,
in Washington, and committed them-'to the
Old Capitol Prison. The offices are giiitided
by the Veteran Reserve Corps and theitolipOrs
taken possession of by the military authoriL
ties. The cause of these arrests is the fur
nishing of contraband, news froni tune`to
time, and especially the transmission to New
York of the bogus proclamation, purporting
to.b.ave been issued by the President, cal r ling
for four hundred thousand more men, which,
was published by the New York World yest:er
day morning.

PROCLAMATION BY THE GOVERNOR. —ln the

tion by Governor Curtin, calling upon the mi
litia of Pennsylvania to organize into compa
nies at once, and prepare themselves to an
swer any call that may beinade by the Gov
ernment for their services. It would be well
for the people of the State to give the matter the
attention it deserves. Organization and prac

event of their services being needed by the
Government.

THE PARIS Fesraoss.—" It is a little singu
lar that the only articles imported from France
which have not risen in proportion to the rise
in gold, or the depreciation of paper money,
are cloaks, id&litillftS and bonnets. These in
dispensable articles of ladies' wear, although
made of .fmer and more costly material than
ever, cost but - a trifle more than they did three
years ago, so thafthere is no excuse on the
score of economy for any lady to wear an un
fashionable bonnet, or a worn-out sack or
mantilla."—Ladies' Gazette of Fashion.
In Paris lives the devil, the Frenchmen say,
Hence there the devil _often is to pay;
He originates all fashions' in the twinkling of
an eye,
And puts up bonnets to a fabulous "high."
But this is one of the ills that husbands must
bear,
In pity for-those who have "nothing to wear."
But, reader, let me ask you, good lack,
Do you fancy an ancient bonnet or sack ?
Can you corapacently look 'upon Fashion's
outraged-laws,
Without any just or unreasonable cause?
Or can you abide anything of slatternly wear,
By those who have plenty, and money to spare?'
Never! Hence America the gauntlet of-fashion_
has hurled
At London, at Paris, and the whole fashiona--
ble world!

TEE PENNSYLVANIA AGENCY AT W,;SF.I.-1:-
TON CITY.
Important Letter from Goy. Curtin Enlarging
its Duties
The Interests of the Soldiers In the Field
to be Cared For at the Expense of the
133=
EXECUTIVE CHAMBER,
HARBISBUBG, May 18, 1864.
COLONEL:—Having commissioned you as
colonel, and Major. Gillala,nd as lieutenant
colonel, I beg leave to call your attention to
the first section of the act of 4th of May, 186 4 0
einrging the military agency , at Washing
ton : "That the agency heretofore established
at Washington by the Governor be' enlarged
so that the agent and assistant agent shall
have the rank, pay'and allowances of colonel
and lieutenant-colonel respectively, to be paid
by the Adjutant-General, and that the duties
of the said agency be enlarged so as to incluCe
the collection of pay, pensions and bounties
due to Pennsylvania volunteers, without
charge or expense to such volunteers—and
such other duties as the Governor may from
time to time direct."
In thus reorganizing and enlarging the pow
ers of the agency heretofore established by
me, the Legislature intended that all the pay,
bounties, pensions and gratuities of the gov
ernment should be collected for the Pennsyl
vania volunteer or his family, without charge
or expense to him or them. You will imme
diately prepare the agency for the perform
ance of theSe additional duties and on your
requisition,ibe necessary
,_blacks and books
will be provided by the Quartermaster Gen
eral of the State. As heretofore, Dr. J. A.
Phillips, Assistant Surgeon General of the
State, will remain on duty at the city of Wash
ington, and you will continue so far as possi
ble to provide in every way for the comfort
and efficiency of our volunteers, the care of
the sick and the wounded, for sending home
the bodies of those who may die in the service,
and to perform all other services that in your
judgment may be proper and necessary for
the benefit of the citizens of Pennsylvania
now in the military:service Of the Govern
ment.
The act of Assembly to which I have refer
,
red authorizes me to appoint two clerks when
deemed necessary to be employed in the
agency. Of such necessity you must be the
judge, and
. I will appoint clerks on your nom
ination.
The success of the important work thus en
trusted you will depend mainly upon yourself,
and I feel aSso.red that you will conduct it in
such a manner as will give satisfaction to the
people of the State, and fulfill all the expecta
tions of the Legislature in the passage of this
most benevolent act.
Very respectfully,
Your ob't serv't,
A. G. CURTIN.
