DuirkEssrtio. —On Saturday morning a most
distressing accident occurred at Williamsport.
A little girl, seventeen months old, was stand
ing on the railroad track, when a car passed
along, knocked her down, and out off both
her arms. She is likely to recover.
Tun Columbiana held a town meeting the
other evening, to make arrangements for
raising "hundred days' men." One of the
citizens offered to give one thousand dollars to
the first company that would be raised in the

was killed oh the Pennsylvania railroad, a
short distance below Tyrone station, on WO.-
nesday evening last.. He was walking on titte
west track, and, stepping out of the way of
the fast line, was caught by a freight train and
instantly killed. His body was frightfully
mangled. He resided somewhere in the Alle
gheny Mountains, had a wife (but no
dren) and was perhaps fifty years'of age.
THE Marie Can says, the refugees from
Maryland, Cumberland, Adams, Franklin and
York counties are crowding the ferries at
Marietta and at Columbia, to. get, with their
horses and live stock, on this side of the Sus
quelienna, bringing with them all kinds of
tales of the doings and number of the rebels.
The " Glatz ferry," opposite Marietta, was
worked double-handed during the whole of
Thursday night, and droves of horses were
hourly seen goingthrongh town.
AsarvAL or A Ryan. Pamosza.—A squad of
citizens brought one rebel prisoner and Fove
ral deserters and stragglers to this city on
Sunday morning. The rebel prisoner was tit:-
ken near Millerstown, Adams county, on hil3 ,
way, as he says, to Gettyiburg, where he dt!..-
signed to give himself up. He states that he
was at Hagerstown dnd lett there early oei
Wednesday morning; after riding some fifteen
miles he turned off into a by-road near Mid
dletown and made his escape from the rebel
ranks—that he had been in the Junta: since
the commencement of the war, and that lie
was perfectly tired of it. He had a sister liv
ing in , the State of Indiana, and that he ex
pected to go out there until the war was over,
(a letter from the sister was found on his per
son.) Before he was captured he attempted
to sell his horse, which he said was a very ft=
one, which belonged to him personally, and
with that money he intended to go west; ha
wore a slouch hat, and pair of pants which
the, Quartermaster had furnished to him front
the goods taken at Hagerstown. His coat wit.*
of course, home made goods, with two largo
brass buttons in front, all of which was fur
nished by himself when he entered the ser
vice.
He states that the rebel force now invading
the North is very large. The cavalry consist;
of three trigadei,. and that Breckinridge's„
Rhodes' and another division (the comman
der of which he did not remember) of in
fantry had also crossed the Potomac; that it
was the opinion of the men that they intended!
to go to Baltimore, although the privates and.
even all their officers up to the Colonels were'
kept ignorant of the army movements. Ho
estimated the rebel infantry force from thirty
seven to forty thousand strong. He further
says that he belonged to the same force which
'drove Gen. Hunter from Lynchb)urg, but that
they received reinforcements from Richmond
and entered upon the present expedition.
Liner. Wm. EL Hrszr. —The death of Lieut.
Hiney, announced to-day, hat; oast a gloom
over a large circle of friends. When our flag
was struck by the traitorous foe at Charles
ton he was among the first to respond to the
calls of his Country, serving .ais private in the
Fifth Pennsylvania regiment daring the three
months campaign. When the Fifth returned
he entered the Fiftieth (Cot B. C. Christ's)
reginient as sergeant in company C, re-volun
teering at the expiration of three years' ser
vice. He was never absent from his rogi
meat on furlough, or otherwise, for cone
hour during his three terms of service.
He was in every contest in which his regi
ment has been engaged—in Virginia, South
Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee and Mis
sissippi, (at Vicksburg,) always signalizing
himself for gallantry and indomitable bravery.
At the second Ball Run disaster his brother
was shot down by his aide. Shortly after the
battle of Antietam he was commfasion.ed a
Second Lieutenant , by Governor Curtin for'
gallant and meritorious conduct, and on the
re-enlistment of the regiment in February
last, he was promoted to a First Lieutenancy.
His sword was ever wielded with hoixor to his
country and himself. Amid all the dangers
and viciasitudes of the camp and tho field he
had escaped unscathed, until the battles at
the Chickahomipy befop Kichmond, 'when, on
the first of June. while engaged in a hand to
hand encounter with
that
forces, he
received the wound that proved fatal. Re

COAL On FOE WOIINDS.—An assistant BUT
geon writing from Gettysburg says that what
water is to a wound in an inflamed state, coal
oil is in a supperating state—it dispels flies,
expels vermin, sweetens the wound, and pro
motes a healthy granulation. He states that
he has seen two patients whose wounds have
bean dressed with it asleep before he was
through with the third. This is a remedy
easily applied in our hospitals. If it serves to
keep away flies, it will add materially to the
comfort of the wounded as well as their cure.

Tan Cnops. ---A Union county paper says:
"Farmers have commenced making hay.
The grass crop in Union county is very good.
Wheat is poor generally, and will not yield
more than a half crop. The severe winter
killed it in many places, while fields which
recently promised to yield abundantly are now
found to be defective, having been drowned
during the wet weather in May. Oats looks
promising, but is suffering for the want of rain.
Corn is very late. Hay and harvest hands
are very scarce."
Sunszrrurzs.—The question has been fre
quently asked whether the Provost Marshal
would accept'as representatives for parties not
liable to do military duty such citizens as are
themselves enrolled. and liable. A reply to
the query is given in the following correspond
ence between a prominent merchant of Phila
delphia, who is himself free from the draft,
but desires to furnish three substitutes, and
the Provost Marshal General. The corres
pondence exiains itself:

—General: lam past forty-five, and not liable
in any way to do military duty, but I desire
to furnish a man or two to the Government,
(under your late order permitting such men
as I am to do so,) to serve in the Army of the
Potomac. A citizen has presented himself to
me who is enrolled and liable to draft. I de
sire to know whether your order contemplates
that such a person may be put into the ser
vice by me as my representative. It has oc
curred to me that you may have overlooked
that point in the preparation of the order. I
deilre to add to the power and means of the
Government, and shall do so by furnishing
three representatives. Can Idi so? and will
your order' permit me to do it in any other
way than by _furnishing men who are, by rea

from military duty? I should be pleased to
have your reply at yoZir earliest convenience.

consideration, and it is natural and important
for every one to seek the best avenues through
which they can be obtained at reasonable

Address of Gov. Curtin.
The following address to the people of
Pennsylvania, by Gov. Curtin, was read by the
different pastors in their respective churches
yesterday evening. We commend its patri
otic sentiments to every lover of his country.
Read it carefully and act accordingly:
PaNssia.veme ExEctrrrvE CniarnEn,
HARRISBURG, Pa., July 10, 18E4.
ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE OF FFeNNSYLVA.NIA.
I refer to my recent Proclamation calling
for troops on the requisition of the President.
You are , not responding freely. The enemies
of our Government are active in deterring
you, and efforts have been made to dissuade
you from the belief that any considerable force
is in your vicinity. and many of our most
loyal and patriotic citizens have been thus
deceived. •
Similar efforts were too successfully made
last year, at the moment when Lee's army. was
actually on your border.
Dispatches have been this morning received
establishing the fact that Gen. Wallace, with
10,000 men was-yesterday compelled to fall
back from Frederick; he is believed to be in
retreat towards Baltimore
The communication between this point and
Baltimore was cut this !nor-ding by the rebels,
below Cockeysville. The authorities of the
United States at Washington are so impressed
with the necessity of immediate effort, that
they have, this morning, rby telegraph, au
thorized men to be mustered in by compa
nies, which they had yesterday peremptorily
refused.
It is my duty to state to you the fact that
your country requires your immediate service,
and the safety of your own soil and of our
good neighbors in Maryland, may depend on
your promptness.
Recollect that the mode of enlisting men is
at the discretion of the Government and it is
the duty of all to obey its requisitions. It
would be disgraceful to you to waste time in
objecting to matters of form and detail, or to
profess that yon would go if called in some
different way.
Those who want an excuse for skulking
may do so, but all who desire to do their duty
to their country will scorn such subterfuges.
Turn, therefore, a deaf ear to all mischiev
ous suggestions from any quarter. Do not
lend yourselves to a betrayal of your country.
Come forward, like men, to aid her.
The rebel force will be easily defeated and
driven away, if you do your duty; and I pray
God so to enlighten you that the honor of the
Commonwealth may be maintained.

Inland Telegraph Company.
We have heretofore alluded to the fact that
the vindication of the Managers of the Inland
Telegraph Company had been most complete,
and that the Secretary of War was satisfied
not only of the superior advantages of this
corporation, but of the faithfulness and loy
alty of those in its charge. The following
order, issued from the War Department early
in June, was promulgated in all the armies of.
the Union. We now take special pleasure of
laying this order before our readers: .
:WAR DEPARTMENT,

ing the transmission of military business over

Lozenges that . l 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 w. -
dresses. Youis,
JNO. WALRAII JACKSON.
Pastor of the Locust St. Methodist Church.
To C. A. Barrnviz—Deor &r: Having abet
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.
