in a few minutes afterwards the vital spark
took its flight. The deceased was recently

THE UNION MEN CYF ATJEDDLETOWN AWAKE
ANT) AT WOEE. -A. splendid meeting was held
at Middletown last evening. It was decidedly
the largest and most enthusiastic gathering
held in that borough for several years, and
may be accepted as the evidence that the peo
ple in that portion of the county are deter
mined to do good service at the coming No
vember election.
Dr. Benjamin Wiestling presided, and Col.
A. J. Herr, of this city, addressed the meet
ing. CoL Herr spoke fur more than an hour,
rehearsing the causes • which led to the open
defiance of the Southern people for the laws
of the land—their armed efforts to subvert
the Government—their long preparation to
change our system of free institutions, and
introduoe slavery as the true condition of la
bor—and the straggles of the great free masses
of the loyal States to resist treason and main
tain the national authority. The speech was
a master effort. It had the true ring in all its
utterances, and produced effects which will
show themselves at the ballot-box in.Novern
ber next.
Lutheran College COUVentiOrr.
A convention, composed of both ministers
and laymen of the Evangelical Lutheran.
Church, was held yesterday, October 18th, in

ment of A. F. Ockerhansen, Esq., of the city of

ter, of Philadelphia, as Secretary. Prayer hav
ing been offered by Rev. H. L. Baugher,.D. D.,
the Rev. Dr. Hay stated the objectef the con
vention, viz: to effect the better endowment
of Pennsylvania College, located at Gettys
burg, Pa. Letters were read from Hon.
Moses M'Lean, Professors F. H. Mnhlenberg,
Jr., and M. Jacobs, communicating their ina
bility to be present, but expressing the liveli
est. sympathy in tie laudable object of the
convention.
By request, Prof. H. L. Baugher D. D.,
President of the college, addressed the con
vention, stating its prospects, deficiencies,
and wants. Numerous other addresses were
delivered, when, on motion of Rev. J. A.
Brown,. D. D., by a rising vote, it was unani
mously
Resolved, That one hundred thousand dol
lars be raised, as soon as possible, for the
better endowment of Pennsylvania College

taking of subscriptions to this object, with
the following most gratifying results :

munificent subscription of $20,000, himself
endows the Professorship of English lLttn
gunge and Literature, reserving to him iself
the privilege of nominating the incumber It.

tional $6,000.
The Convention adjourned to meet again. 4
7 o'clock in the evening.
EVENING SESSION
An able and eloquent address was delve: red
by Rev. F. W. Conrad, D. D., after which the
following additional subscriptions were re
ceived, viz:
From Martin Buehler, Esq., of St. Mat
thew's church, Philadelphia, $l,OOO.

ershansen ' professorships,
A communication was handed in from Atm
S. K. Brobst, Rev. William Rath, and Jona
than Reichard, Esq., of Allentown, Lehigh
county, Pa., raising the inquiry whether it
would not comport with the interests of Penn
sylvania College to change its location from
Gettysburg to EaStern .Pennsylvania, and; if
so, whether the Convention would not; re
commend Allentown, provided suitable build
ings were offered. On leave given, Rev.
Btobst made additional statements. The
Convention resolved that it had heard these
statements with pleasure, but as the bodyiwas
convened for a specific purpose, viz: the en
dowment of Pennsylvania College, it deemed
the 'agitation of the question of its renieval
foreign to its purpose% and hence inexpedi
ent.
Adjourned to meet to-morrow mornin.4, at
o'clock.

SALE or' CANNON, &c.—By an act of Assent.
bly the Quartermaster General of PenrisylVania
was authorized to dispose of, at puha., sale,,A
number of brass and iron cannon and other
implements of warfare belonging to the Steele:
which had accumulated in the arsenal hese,
and which the rusty hand of age had rendemsd
unfit for further service. Some of the bras.s
pieces were of French manufacture, and dated
during the reign of Louis XVL They formed
a portion of the purchases from That govern
ment by our colonial fathers, and for aught
we know, ma ave followed the Perainylva
nia Line into ore than one bloody 'battle
field of the Revolution. The iron pieces
were cast in this country, and doubtlecs were
among the very first productions of art that fol
lowed the discovery of those ineshartatf ble beds
of iron ore which still distinguish our /Nate.
The French,pieces are highly finished, b tier
ing upon their polished - surfaces evidences: of
very superior workmanship; and form a sia
ing contrast in this respect to the iron piec see,
which are of rode patterns, but withal, o a
solidity and size,sholimithat they werce me ant
for active service, and not to add, like tl ieir
polished compeers, to the pomp and pane ply
Of royalty. ' _
The rattiindaxice wasnot very largq, riots, gl- -

age price of 44.23 cents, per pound, and the
iron 2 cents per pound.
Beside the sale of cannon there were a num
ber of other articles disposed of. James

chased 875 gun barrel§ at 62.56 per cwt., and
various other parties lots of scrap brass, iron
scraps and iron castings.
THE BIDS FOR ERECTING THE EXTENSION
TO TEE CAPT/OL.—lsToon yesterday was the
time fixed for opening the proposals • for
erecting the extension to the State capi
-01, authorized by an act of the last Leg
islature. The commissioners to superin
tend the matter consist of tha Gover
nor of the Commonwealth, State Treasurer,
Surveyor General and Auditor General, but
owing to the continued indisposition of the
latter, tlie three first named officers only were
present. But two or three bids were pre
sented, and these were from builders in Har
risburg and Philadelphia. Owing to some
deficiency in the details of the lowest bid, no
definite allotment was made, and the matter,
for the present, is had under advisement.
We flatter ourselves with the hope that this
delay will be of brief duration, and that the
contract, will be away led at as early a day as
possible. Owing to the lateness of the sea
son, it is not expected that much of the pro
posed work can be accomplished this year,
but the allotment will show that the Commis
sioners, at all events, have performed their
duty, and by doing this preclude any future
legislative interference in the matter. The
want of more room for legislative purposes
has been sadly experienced for some years,
yet it was not until last winter that this defi
ciency interfered to any great extent with a
proper performance of the public business.
If we mistake not, this want of room was one
of the principal arguments made for the re
moval of the Capitol to Philadelphia,and while
we never for a moment entertained a belief
that the friends of that measure would be suc
cessful then, or at any subsequent time, yet
we must confess that we should like to see
this cause for complaint removed as quick as
possible, and not again made the hobby of
capital-removal agitators, as it most undoubt
edly will be if this matter of finally awarding
the contract is not done before the meeting of
the next Legislature.
. lIITETTNG FUNDS TO CONDIXT THE COPPER
HEAD CANTAiox.—Our Copperhead opponents
have been put to many strange straits to raise
funds to pay their expenses while conducting
a crusade against the country—one of the
most disgraceful of which may be related as
follows:
Two well-known Copperheads, one a bla
tant orator in the pay of that party, and the
other a milllionare, who has made thousands
of dollars out of the proceeds of that free labor
which he affects to despise—were out this
morning, with a subscription paper, 'purport
ing to be for money to build a church at Tre
verton, while to some it was represented as
being an effort to raise money for the relief of
a soldier's widow. We heard of two Repub
licans who were approached by this commit
tee, one of whom contributed a small sum,
believing that hewas giving to charitable
purposes, but the other was too sharp, and
could not be caught. He discovered the
cheat, and almost compelled the committee
to confess that they were seeking money for
political purposes, and assist in plunging the
con ntry into still further trouble. Surely our
political opponents are all honorable men.
This' is the only comment we have for this
trans fiction.
A. OtitlßT KLUTIAL is now in session iu this
city, i'or the trial of the Columbia county in
surgeirts, who organized to resist the enroll
ment :in that region, and who are charged
With very grave offences against the laws and
the peace of the Commonwealth. While one
of the vrituesses was on the stand yesterday,
he plainly testified that leading and well
known Democrats had visited his neigh
borhood, to, urge thepeople to resist
the Federal officers, giving as a reason
that Illinois had left the Union—that Ohio,
New York and New dereey Were ready to
range themselves with the Confederate Gov
ernment, and that the time had come for
Pennsylvania to follow in the same track by
casting off the Lincoln misrule. The man
who was charged with uttering these words of
encouragement to, rebellion in Pennsylvania is one
of the lawyers in attendance on this court martial
ems the dttorney for the prisoners. This fact has
n volume of meaning in it. It needs no com
ment to exhibit its criminality. It is but the
corroboration of what has been so often
charged on the Democratic leaders, that they,
and not their blind followers, are the secret
alders and abettors of treason.
Goirrarsinuric Music HALL has been entirely
re-fitted, re-painted, and rejuvenated,. and

SHOIILD 31E REPAIRED. —There is a hole in
