TEE bankers of Philadelphia have thrown
out the notes of the Farmers' and Mechanics'
bank of Milford, Delaware.
P/GEONS. —Wild pigeons have made their
appearance in this neighborhood, in conside
rable numbers. We notice our sportsmen
bringing them in daily.
NEWSPAPERS SUSPENDED.—The Conneaut
Reporter suspends because of the times and
high price of paper. The Lycoming Gazette,
published at Williamsport, has also sus
pended.
TEE last grand Union rally .previous to the
October election, will take place at the Court
House, on Monday night. Able speakers will
be present. Let the loyal citizens of Harris
burg turn out in their might.
CHESTNUTS were offered in market this
morning, at 25 to 30c per quart. The moun
taineers report them scarce. A few visits from
Jack Frost will cause a tremendous fall—of
chestnuts and prices.
A NUISANCE.—The dozens of dogs running
at large in the streets, after . every horse, snarl
ing, snapping and fighting among themselves,
are not averse to tasting human flesh, espe
cially in the evening. A good dog is frequently
valuable to its owner, but those many curs
that run yelping through the streets are of no
earthly account.
THE Theatre will be open this evening, on
which occasion wo may expect to see there
another of those fashionable audiences which
have filled the Hall during the past forty-lour
consecutive nights. A. splendid bill is pre
sented to the patrons of the Theatre. In
order to obtain comfortable seats, tickets
should be procured at Bannvart's drug store.
The curtain will rise at half-past seven o'clock.
FATAL ACCIDENT.—A horse, attached to a
light wagon containing three ladies and a boy,
took fright in Susquehanna Depot on the 9th
ult., and ran away. In turning a corner the
wagon tipped,and the three ladies were thrown
out. One of them—Mrs. Sarah B. Badly,
wife of Joseph Badly—was instantly killed.
Another was seriously hurt, but the other lady
and boy escaped uninjured.
SERIOUS ACCIDENt.—Jesse Poole, conductor
of one of the mail trains on the Northern Cen
tral railroad, was seriously injured, on Thurs
day morning, at the Baltimore depot. Ho was
attempting to couple two cars and was caught
between the bumpers. Two of his ribs were
fractured and injuries of an infernal character
inflicted. He was placed on the train and re
moved to his home at Bolton.
MARKET presented the usual busy appear
ance, this morning. It is amusing to witness
the collisions of baskets, buckets, and crino
line, etc., etc., as the people are passing to
and fro in quest of produce. A case or two of
pocket-picking occurred. Prices were gen
erally on the decline. Splendid butter was
sold as low us 30c per pound.
REV. GEORGE U. Ham.—This gentleman,
who entered the U. S. service as captain in
an Ohio regiment, (and who was also out in
the three months' service,) and was subse
quently reported to have been killed, is yet
alive. Eels a prisoner at Richmond. Rev,
H. resided at Wooster, Ohio, at the opening
of the rebellion, and with hundreds of other
patriots of that place, marched forth to de
fend the good old flag. He was severely
wounded and captured after the first Vicks
burg battle, and since then has been in
the hands of the rebels. As nothing was sub
sequently heard of him, it was supposed that
he was numbered with the dead. Two Wooster
soldiers, just exchanged, from Libby Prison,
state that they saw him there very recently.
it is believed that owing to his outspoken op
position to the rebels and his fierce denuncia
tion of their unholy cause, he is prevented
from writing to his friends.
Rev. Geo. U. Harn was at one timepastor
i
of the old Mulberry Street Bethel, n this
city, and has hundreds of personal friends
here, who will rejoice to learn that he is yet
alive.

A COPPERHEAD LANDLORD REDURVTI BY A
LOYAL LADr.—A certain copperhead landlord,
who is the possessor of at least one row of
houses in the upper part of the city, has
made himself, of late,
very obnoxious to
some of his tenants by his abuse of the Gov
ernment, and deploring that the laborers have
to pay so—much for the necessaries of life.—
In order to give a fair illustration, we will call
our landlord "D."
- -
D. talking a long time with several of his
lady tenants, was in a very desponding mood,
complaining that potatoes, coffee, sugar and
flour were so high, and that everything would
have to be taxed under this cruel war. Re re
marked if the Abolitionists would only be de
feated, everything would get cheaper.
After listening to this croaker, who had been
raising the rent nearly every year since the
houses were built, one of the bystanders re•
marked, "See here, Mr. D., do you pay your
taxes ?"
D. "Yes, Madam," was the reply."
Lady. "Well, I am tired of hearing your
complaints so constantly; you never say a
word against Jeff Davis and his traitors:"
D. •'Yes, I wish I could see the rebel Jeff
Davis and Lincoln both hung together."
Lady. "Yes, and I could see you hung on
the other side of Lincoln; it would then remind
me of our Savior, who was hung between two
thieves."
hir, the co, retired with a flea in
er. What does the reader think of the
honesty of such men? Do they deserve to
live in a land where the memory of gallant
heroes who perished in defence a the right,
now forms the richest heritage of a free peo
ple? No.
Daowaran.—A boy named Franklin Lewis;
of Middletown, this county, was drowned on
the 26th nit., in the canal at Wilkesbarre.--
He was in the act of taking water from the
canal with a rope and bucket, and fell over
board. His age was about seven years.

A Cmuces.—A lady correspondent of a Provi
dence paper computes thatlf the ladies would
cut their dresses to escape the ground one
inch, instead of trailing two inches, as is now
the fashion, a saving of one million dollars
would be annually effected. Here is a chance
for "dress reform," as well as for improvement
in neatness:
NOTlCE.—Parties still having guns in their
possession belonging to Capt. Gibson's com
pany of Minute men, are hereby notified that

ENROLLING• OFFICER SHOT ax.—The M'Con
uellsburg Republican has the following notice
of an occurrence in Fulton county:
Enrolling officer Amos Hixon, of Bethel
township, whilst serving notices on drafted
men, on Sunday last, was fired upon in Whip's
Cove, by a gang of Fulton county traitors who
were lying in ambush for him. When the
shot was fired, he was riding in company
with Mr. Isaac Hull. Mr. Hull's horse was
shot through the nose.
BURGLARY. —The warehouse of Wunderlich
Nead, in Chambersburg, was burglariously
entered on Wednesday evening last by a false
key, the safe blown open and three United
States bonds for $5OO each and some papers
stolen. There were several hundred dollars
of money in one of the drawers of the safe,
but they overlooked that, and did not get it.
Payment has been stopped on the bonds. No
clue has been had as to the guilty party or
parties; but it is evident that they are sci
enced burglars.
CHAPTER. OF ACCIDENTS.—The following fa
tal accidents occurred in Cambria county, this
week:
John Clinger, of Yoder township, was
killed by a wagon passing over him—caused
by his horses running off.

town, was thrown from a horse and dragged
several hundred yards, and his brains dashed
out.
A little son of Conrad Apple, of Perkins
ville, fell'into the canal, and was drowned.
A little German boy, of Johnstown, was run
over by a.coal train, and killed.

CorrsourAn CONCLAVE.----Por the last week
everybody in Harrisburg bas been talking
about the eloquent Dan. Dougherty, and ex
pressing an anxiety to hear that able champion
of his country's rights and defender ot his
country's honor. True Democrats who are
yet true to their country and their country's
flag, were loudest in their expressed desire to
hear a patriotic Democrat. The leading cop
perheads of the city dreaded I.lie consequences
and feared the result of Dougherty's con
vincing arguments, his patriotic earnestness
and his burning and thrilling eloquence. They
accordingly. concocted the scheme to counter
balance its withering influent*. One Of their
shining lights was telegraphiad to come with
out fail, and make a speech upon the same
evening, and within a stone's throw of the
same place. That man was Governor Horatio
Seymour, of New York, the Grand Sachem
ot the copperhead party, and the late Presi
dent of the traitor's Convention at Chicago.
Well, the Governor came and the meeting was
held in front of the Buehler House, composed
of boys, and men who were unable to get into
the crotded Court House. •
The Governor was indisposed at dinner—a
little too much so for the .dignity of the once
he fills—and a carriage ride to "Haldeman's
villa," in Cumberland county, during the af
ternoon increased his indisposition to an alarm
ing extent—thickening his tongue—weaken
ing his knees, but strengthening his treason
able faculties. The Governor made an oily
speech, mistifying his audience,
and covering
up his treason in good English and plausible
arguments, calculated to deceive the unsus
pecting and aid the cause of treason. He well
knew he Could accomplish nothing by the
expression of open treason; he therefore re
sorted to delusion, sophistry and chicanery.
He made an unfair speech, and misrepresented
both himself and his party. lie pretends to
be a "war man," while lus•very soul is burn
ing with treason. He preaches up M'Clel
lan's letter of acceptance as indicative of the
feelings of the General and the great and
only principle of the party. GOvernor Sey
mour is playing his card for the Secretary
ship of State, and if M'Clellan should be
elected, he would succeed in his ambitious
aspirations, and the cabinet would be filled
with just such peace men, such dangerous
demagogues and traitors as Horatio Seymour.
The meeting was also addressed by a Mr. Mc-
Gee, of New York, who informed the audience
that he had been to the army, and "fixed"
the New York vote to his own pleasement.
When we remember that the New York
soldiers vote by proxy, and that this unscru
pulous wretch has been appointed by Governor
Seymour a commissioner to take affidavits,
we may well tremble to think of the wilful
frauds which will be perpetrated on the soldier
by such infamous copperheads as this McGee.
He bo fisted of what he had done; and was
giving a description of his infamies, when his
party friends trundled him off the balcony,
tearing the consequences of his reckless ex
posures. This man McGee was so beastly
drunk that he was unable to stand without
holding on to the iron railing—a beautiful
specimen of a New York copperhead, a de
bauchee, and a ballot-box stuffier. A few more
such. men and such speeches throughout the
country nzll make a solid vote for the Union
ticket.
Lawyer Ham Alricks—the Geographer of
Chicago--also spoke,.but the poor fellow is
perfectly harmless, and we are not disposed
to speak harshly of his infirmities. He Made
up his mind that McClellan would be elected,
and then for his successor he wanted Vail an
digham for the twenty-second President of
the. United States. Poor Ham! will never
realize the bright imaginations of his mind,
or the fond. hope of being the Post Master of
Harrisburg.
Paper Colonel Richard J. Haldeman also
spoke, but as he-. announced that he would
make a "set speech" 'between the elections,
we will defer any comment upon his remarks,
but pay particular attention to Sir Richard
after we hear; "set speech." '
Senator Clymer was the decentestlooking
speaker, and certainly made the best; speech
of the evening. • He was careful in bits senti
ments and geUtieiManly in, his maw" r.
"Tramsoikain Horse has been selected as
the new name for Herr's Hotel, at Harrisburg,
under its new proprietor. The name suggests
night sweats from "composition tea," "No.

Thomsonian doctors.—Berks and Schuylkill
Journal.
Not so fast, Mr. Journal. The child has not
been christened finally. It is now suggested
to have it called Dow Drop Inn (do drop in.)
A lam shocking murder was committed
on Saturday last, between Shamokin and Sun
bury. A highly respected lady Of 60 years,
wife of Louis Chamberlin, was left alone in
the morning, and in the afternoon was found,
about forty rods from the house, apparently
killed by their own gun, which was by her
side. Mr. C. had held a large sum of money,
but on Friday deposited it in the Shamokin
Bank. It is supposed the unknown murderer
was in search- of this money, as the house
was pillaged, and that he then drove her out
and shot her to prevent her becoming a. wit

EXCITEMENT AT NEWPOT. --Copperheads Dis
turb a Union Meeting.---Last night a grand
Union meeting was held at Newport, r.erry
county, and was progressing finely when a
shower of rain fell, causing a temporary check
to the exercises. During this time the cop
perheads of the town made an effort to tear
down a Lincoln flag which had been flung to
the breeze, but the "Iron Boys" of Duncan
non happened to be at Newport, and •they
thoroughly routed the cops, who were glad to
retreat, and crawl into their holes. Newport
will send a good report at the close of election
day. ,
BOLD ROBBERL—Last night a robbery oc
curred in Landisburg, Perry county, by which
Wm. B. Divan's store was entered and about
$250 belonging to him, besides a sum of
money (amount not known,) the property of
the Widow Snyder--,placed there for safe
keeping—was stolen. The proprietor was
absent at a politicalmeeting, leaving Mr. John
A. Linn in charge of the store. Mr. L.
closed the place of businese at the usual time,
taking the keys home, to his own house. Dur
ing the night his residence was.entered by the
burglar, who proceeded to •his (Linn's) bed
room and took from. his pockets the keys of
the store as well as that belonging to the safe;
then proceeding to the latter place, an en
trance to the inner apartments of the safe was
effected by means of iron implements pro
cured elsewhere. All the money in the safe
was taken. Fortunately, a number of Gov
ernment bonds were overlooked, and remain
ed untouched.

DRY GOODS have fallen as a natural conse
quence of the fall of gold, but at the same
time, did it not affect domestic goods as much
as imported goods? For the rise of domestic
goods was caused by scarcity of raw material,
as well as stock on hand, while foreign goods
rose on account of exchange, and yet, domestic
goods have fallen some 25 per cent. To con
vince you that goods have come down, call at
Brownold's cheap corner, Second street,oppo
site Jones', who laid in a beautiful stock of
goods at last week's decline, and is therefore
able to sell goods 25 to 50. per cent. less than
'any one in this town. All wool French meri

and other preparations for hoarseness and

all, can cheerfully commend your own as a
most admirable specific for public speakers

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 ac -
