BOY, named. Welker, narrowly escaped
lrowning, on Saturday evening, while bathing
in the river. He was seized with cramp, and
would have perished but for the timely as
sistance of a few companions.
SAD.—Among those killed before Peters
burg, on Monday, was the sergeant-major of
the Tenth Massachusetts, which regiment was
just marching out of the works, its time hav
ing expired... While in the act of saying, good
by to a friend, he was instantly killed.

YEsisranAv was extremely warm, the heat
being almost beyond endurance. The churches
were but slimly attended, and the streets were
almost deserted. In the evening the Capitol
Park was crowded with citizens, who were
seeking relief in the refreshing breezes of that
delightful retreat.
RES. SLMEL Parrxn , s, of Carlise, delivered
two very interesting discourses in the German
Reformed Church, yesterday. When the State
militia were called out, in 1862, the Rev. gen
tleman buckled on his sword, nud marched
forth to aid in the defence of the State, and
remained with his company until they were
relieved from duty
To-mounow Dan Rico's Great Show will
make its grand entree into this city, and will
exhibit in the afternoon and evening, near the
Cotton Factory. It is unnecessary to puff
Dan or his show. The simple announcement
that they are c omiug always warrants them a
crowded house. Who don't know Dan Rice
- -by reputation, if not personally? Go to
the Big Show. There is no circus with it.
Wa regret to learn of the death of Lient
William 11. Child, of Company F, 45th Pa.
Volunteers. He was killed on Tuesday even
ing last, by a rebel sharpshooter. Lieut. C.
had been promoted from Sergeant Major of
the regiment to a lieutenancy but a few days
previous to his death. Deceased was a brave
soldier, unassuming, and was beloved by a
large circle of friends and acquaintances. He
was a cousin to Mr. Sullivan S. Child, of this
oity, and was well known here.
Pie-NICS are uncommonly abundant this
season. Scarcely a day passes without its
pic-nic in some one of the beautiful groves in
this vicinity.
• Next Thursday, there Will be a Union pic
nic in Hoffman's woods. The gentlemen in
charge of the arrangements are determined to
render this pic-nic worthy of public patron
age.
On the same day the Vine Street M. E. Sun
day school will go to Derry woods by railroad,
and have a grand time. The profits of this
pie-nie will be devoted to th 3 benefit of the
school.
St. Peter's Verein will hold a, pic-nic in

Omnibuses will run from the Second Ward
House
Ou the 4th of July there will be an inde

will run from the depot. Fare for the round
trip, 25 cents.
WHEN WHEAT SHOULD BE CM —There is a
difference of opinion among farmers as to the
proper time for cutting wheat. Those who
have investigated the matter are convinced
that the grain should be taken off 'before the
heads are fully ripe, and the following reasons
are given:
Wheat is composed of gluten, starch and
bran. Gluten is the nourishing quality of
the grain, makes the flour stick together in
the hands of the baker, and gives weight to
the grain—and there is the greatest quantity
of gluten in the grain just when the straw is
yellow two or three joints from the grourid,
the head turns downward, and you. can.
squeeze a grain between
.your fingers with--
out getting any milk from it. Every day the
wheat stands after this stage of its ripeness,
the gluten decreases in quantity, and the
bran increases in thickness.

Sin: I have a package directed to your ad
dress, which I will forward free of cost on
receipt of 35 cents in stamps, and a three
cent stamp for this notice. _ •
Yours,
The above, dated in New Jersey, four months
ago, was mailed in New York, on last Satur
day. The gentleman to whom it was
addressed inferms us that he expects no pack
age from any quarter, and believes the author
to be a swindler on a small scale. lire would
caution the public against forwarding money
to the above or any other address, upon re
ceipt of such a letter. There is either no
paCkage in the hands of the advertiser, or he
has one of his own manufacture which he de
sires to dispose of in order to "raise the
wind."
ADVANCE r Day GOODS. —The unprecedent
ed advance in the price of dry goods has
induced C. L. Bowman, of the cheap dry goods
store, No. 1, corner of Front and Market
streets, to inform his patrons and the public
generally "that those goods on hand previous
to the late advance will be disposed of at less
than the present wholesale prices in Philadel
phia or New York. With the apparent disposi
tion to run gold up to a - very high figure of
premium, it would not be strange if the dif
ferent articles for consumption would sympa
thize in prices. With this view of the future,
would it not be well to repair at once to Bow
man's and supply Your wants in dry goods?

C. A. BANsvemr—Dear Sir: I have . used
Brown's Bronchial Troches, Wistar's Lozenges
and other preparations for hoarseness and
throat troubles, and in comparison with them
all, can cheerfully commend your own as a
most admirable specific for public speakers
and singers, in oases of hoarseness, coughs
and colds. I have found them serving in
time of need, most effectually.
Yours truly, T. H. ROBINSON,
Pastor of N. S. Presbyterian Church.
2I agree with Mr. Robinson as to the
value of Bannvart's Troches.
W. 0. OATTELL,
Late Pastor of 0. S. Presbyterian Church.
HARRISBMIG, Jan., 464.
To a A. RlailiVAMT—Dear Sir: In th habit
of speaking very frequently, and in places
where the vocal organs are very much taxed,
I have found the need of some gentle expecto
rant, and that want has been supplied in your
excellent Troches.
I consider them very far superior to any
Lozenges that I have ever used, in removing
speedily that huskiness of the voice arising
from its too frequent use, and impairing th
effectiveness of the delivery of public at-.
dresses. Yours, ,&43.
JNO. VALKER JACKSON.
Pastor of the Locust St. Methodist Church.
To C. A. Ruorveirr---Bear Sir: Having user..
your Troches, I am free to say they are
the best I have ever tried and take great
pleasure in recommending them to all persons
afflicted with sore throat or huskiness of
voice arising from public speaking or singing.
