A. MINISTER AND HIS SON CONSUMED IN THE
CARS AT THOMPSONTOWN.—The Reading Times
of yesterday says:
Among those who perished in the burning
railroad train at-Thompsontoivn, about 38
miles above Harrisburg, we are sorry to learn
was Rev. Mr. Rroetel, who formerly preached
in this city. His oldest son also perished in
the flames. There were more burned in that
disaster than the public have •any knowledge
of.
THE festival gotten up by the ladies of.: the
Free Baptist Church resulted in a handsome
profit. The proceeds of the two evenings
amounted to $260.18—a Sum that will be
nearly sufficient to furnish the new edifice.
Great credit is due those having the festival
in charge, for their efforts to render it attrac
tive and profitable. The church is nearly
completed, and promises to be one of the
most beautiful temples in the city.
•
VERY IMPORTANT TO ALLEN OOLDIERS.—The
31st section of the act of Congress, passed
July 17th, 1862, provides that an alien of the
age of twenty-one years, or upwards, enlisted
in either the regular or volunteer forces, and
who shall be honorably discharged, may upon
petition to the courts, become a citizen of the
United States, without a previous declaration
of intention, and further that he shall not be
required to prove more than one year's resi
dence within the United States previous to
his application to become a citizen.

and the enthusiasm exceeds that of any for

How different are the death throes of the
expiring copperhead party. There is no en
thusiasm in the ranks, and those who attend
their meetings do so after the most earnest
drumming of the slave-drivers, who, like their
friends in the South, are giving their lost kick
"to keep up appearances.!
OLD Dual- Anousno--Large - Meeting and
Pole Raising in Hummelstown. --The loyal citi
zens of Hummelstown united in raising a fine.
pole and flag on Tuesday, in front of Mr.
Christian Nialey's store. The pole does honor
to the patriotism of those who raised it there,
dedicated as it is to constitutional Vilion
and Freedom, and whilst the old flag was, un
furled to the breeze, wild shouts of applause;
rang through the air. In the evening a grand"
Union meeting was held, the largest and most
enthusiastic held in Hummelstown for many
years. - Mr. Richard Fox was chosen Presi
dent, and the usual vice presidents and secreta

following permanent officers elected : Pres,
ident, Dr. B. J. Wiestling ;Nice President,
E. J. Ramsey ; Secretary, W. H. Kendig. The
Club has rented the Hall for the Campaign. •
F#4, -::bp,' Niatutz:—A coxespoxideut
;who "saw that of which he speaks," writes us
as follows:
"Mr. David Garver, of Macon counts',
Illinois, has a cane, the head of which is a
correct likeness of Abraham Lincoln. It was
found by one of his neighbors by the name of
Pricer. It grew out of the bark of a tree, and
when,he.saw it he commenced to strip off the
bark, when 10, and behold!' there was the
correct picture of Abraham Lincoln's head, a
little smaller than a man's flat. This is per.
fectly natural, which is shown by the grains
of the wood taking such courses as to form
perfect eyes, nose, mouth, and also wrinkles
where the ears should be. Brit what is per
haps more singular is a perfect 2 on the back
of the head, and an A and an L on his fore
head. Mr. Garver's intention was to take it
to the President. Whether he has done so or
not we do not know. The 2is doubtless in
tended to show that Abraham Lineoln will be
the second liberator of America."

From the 201st Regiment.
Amnalaionp., VA., OCt. 4,- 1864.
Editor Ttlegraph—Companies A, B, C, D, I
and 1., the entire strength of our regiment, at
present, are • still lying here at Alexandria;
awaiting orders to go to our destination; which
I have every reason to believe will not be far
from this point—probably to guard along the
line of the Orange and Alexandria railroad,
while the construction corps put this line once
more in order to push supplies forward to
Sheridan in the valley—so, at least, I have
been informed by one of the "knowing ones."
The boys are constantly accosting me with,
"Corp oral, where is the TELEGRAPH? Why don't
she come along ?—would go without my din
ner to get a sight of one, to-day!" hold on,
lads! The
tg winter of our discontent,'
Shall presently be
"Made glorious sumnier, by"--
a copy of our staunch Harrisburg Union daily
the TRrYGBArn!
To drive away an hour or two of monotony,
I walked out to the wharf—saw and heard the
following: Fifty, or more, soldiers sitting on
the different wharves looking out for biles !
Observed, lying around ' , loose," piles of
white perch, catties and sun-fish.
Fine specimens of rock-fish are caught by
throwing a line, a few hundred feet in length,
baited with live-bait, (minnow or smelt,) out
into the river, where the water is probably
thirty-five or forty feet deep, at high tide.
The tide here flows and ebbs twice in twenty
four hours—five hours flow and seven hours
ebb in the morning, and the same at mid
night.
I managed to get aboard of .the hospital
steamer, fitting out with all dispatch here, for
a floating hospital, and found that she is the
same magnificent "Ben Deford," formerly
plying between Baltimore, New York and
Boston, taking an occasional trip to Trinidad
de Cuba. She is two hundred and twenty-five
feet long, and has accommodations complete
for about three, hundred and fifty sick and
wounded. Her engine is of nearly five hun
dred librse-poNier capacity, eleven feet stroke,
and. fifty-six inch cylinder. She is a side
wheel steamer, driven by a pair of wheels each
ninety feet in circumference. She was built
five years ago, at a cost of. $175,000, but
would now cost $300,000. The vessel is pla
ted to the second deck, with half-inch , iron,
and draws eleven.feet of water .when loaded
down. - She has been in GovernMent service
for the last three years. The "Deford" is to
be ready for service in a day or two to hasten
down the river, in anticipation of the 114-
pending battle„ between Grant and Lee, in
front of Richmond.
The health of the men, at .this writing, is
pretty good—a few cases of, diarrhoea, from
imprudent causes, are the only complaints I
heard mentioned.
I think if our mail matter don't soon come
to hand some of the boys will grow desperate.
On all sides your ears are assailed with the
words- 4 .91mi1e ! home ! —why don't we hear
from home ?"
I am under the impression that letters di
rected to "201st Reg't. (at or near) Alexail
dria, Va.," would coma to hand: Try it, Mr.
Editor, by forwarding a few copies of the
TELEGRAPH, containing " our correspondence
under difficulties." More anon,

EDITOR HARELSHITRG TELZGRAPH—Dear Sir:
—Believing a communication from us would
not be uninteresting to your many readers,
concluded to drop you a few lines. After our
arrival in the city of Brotherly Love, we were
marched , dowu to Washington street, to the
Volunteers' Refreshment Saloons, where we
partook.of a good and substantial • breakfast.
From thence we proceeded to camp, where We
are pretty comfortably quartered in tents.
Our rations are very good pork,bread, and
coffee for breakfast; excellent bean 'soup' and
fresh bread for dinner; and I tell you. yotir
humble servant proved a full grown hand at
the business. Bread, beef and good coffee for
supper.
For the benefit of our -Harrisburg friends,
who may feel disposed to pay
,us a visit, I
would state that Camps' Cadwalader is" pleas
antly located about one mile and a, half from
Ninth and Arch streets, where they - can take
the city passenger cars out Ridge Avenue to
within the width of a small field from camp.
Rumors were rife this morning that we would
be armed immediately and sent down to City
Point, but atter some enquiry on the subject,
I could not have the yarn confirmed, and,
doubtless was gotten up by some of the smart'
ones in camp for the purpose of a big skeer and,
having the laugh 'on us; but I can assure yoP
the boys would be ready and willing at a mo
ment's notice to march. , I
I will alio say that we have 'quite a sprinkle:
of Christians in our ranks, and having two'
preachers with us prayer meetings are held in
the evening. Aresoludon was also unanimous

Union Meeting in Lower Paxton
IirtiGLESTOWN, OCL 7.
Mn. Enrrou:—The true and loyal citizens
of Lower Paxten held a meeting in this place
last evening to counsel together for their
country's welfare. It was one of the largest
and most enthusiastic meetings ever held
here. On motion of Clement B Care, the
meeting was organized by electing Aihn Focht,
Esq., Chairman, with the usual number of
Vice Presidents and - Secretaries. The Presi
dent, ba taking the chair, briefly and clearly
recited the objects of the meeting. and the im
portant issues of the present campaign. 'Ad-
dresses were then made by Ralph L..Maclay,
A. C. Smith and L. N. Ott, Esqrs., Which
were listened to with the strictest attention,
the only interruptions being the bursts of ap
plause greeting the sentiments of patriotism,
and the words of encouragement for the vin
dication of our national honor, which fell from
the lips, of the speakers. My word for it, Mr.
Editor, there will be but few votes polled
among us for the Union on the white-feather,
ignominous peace platform.
Yours, &c., LOWER PAXTON.
