R. MufllY..We are aware that cautious capitalists are indis posed to invest in a species of stock in which there has'been so much deception practiced, but we can assure our citizens that the, com panies which Major Mallly represents are safe and reliable, and conducted by the most substantial and responsible businens indri of the city of Philadelphia. The lands of both com panies are situated in Venango county, Pa., and Wirt county, West Vitginiti; 'and . are not only extensive, but among the most valuable in those, localities., , Bath are now - yielding largely of oil of. a most superior ipiality, and in such quantities as warrant the aseprti on that there are no More valuable or desirable stocks in the market. The RATEBONE VETEOLEUd Om Opirpxsx has in working order five Wells, one of which—the "Mare well"—has produeed as much as .500 barrels per day, while .the SPRING COMPANY has in operation seven paying wells, and both are making rapid and 'further developments, which can scarcely fail to make. them the richest companies in the country. We would the all those desiring to invest, to call at the office of Robert Snod grass, Esq., urth Third street, cetidAlress box 120, Harrisburg, Pa., inasmuch as the amount of stock to be disposed of is ATTEMPT TO CARRY A FUGITIVE SL&VE BACK TO SLAVERY—Two Respectable Ladies of Har risburg Acting as Slave Banters.—We have just had communicated to us the facts of a.conspiracy to carry back to slavery a poor defenceless female, who had been honestly earning her living in this city for some time, and who is regarded by all who know her, as a decent and virtuous girl. It appears that two sisters reached this city, some time ago, as fugitive slaves from the State of Maryland. They sought service and found it in respecta ble families in the city. The gentleman with whom the girl lived, who was thus attempted to be abducted, has given us the main facts of this outrageous case. He writes that the girl, Martha Jones, was enticed by false pretences to the residence of one of the ladies engaged in this disgraceful affair, where she was locked up in a room until train time—the object being to carry her over the Cumberland Valley Rail mad, back to slavery, in Maryland. Her sis ter, in the meantime, found it out, when she called at the house where Martha was held as a captive, where she was informed by one of the aforesaid ladies that she had gone up street, but the truth was that Martha was con fined in a room in the house aforesaid. When these ladies imagined that the way was clear, they conducted the trembling fugitive through the alleys of Harrisburg, calculating to reach the railroad just as the Cumberland Valley train would start. In the meantime, however, Martha's sister, with a number of friends, had stationed themselves at the depot, waiting the approach of the party of negro stealers. When the ladies made their appearance with the poor girl, Martha discovered her sister, who at once interposed to prevent her from being forced into the cars. The ladies (God save the mark !) almost fought desperately to force Martha on the train, but the poor girl strug gled, her sister and her friends came gallantly to the rescue, and slavery to-day, in Martha Jones, is one less of its victims in this land of the free. We have barely given the facts of this case, and these can be relied upon as aubatantially true. If the proper officers are desirous of pushing this matter to its proper end, we are prepared to give the name of our informant, and that informant is ready and willing to _tes tify against the ladies who thus stand charged with having violated the fugitive slave law. The circumstances connected with this case are too outrageous—the parties who thus boldly attempted to abduct this poor girl too respectable not to have known what they were about—and therefore we demand,. in the name of Justice and the Right, Freedom and Religion, that they be at once proceeded ;gated by the proper legal officers. AN important "official' notice relative to' the death of_Benjamin F. Neff,., formerly of Williamsburg, Blair county, is published in our advertising columns. VICE PRESIDENT HAMLIN COING.—ViCe President Haudin is expected to speak in Harrisburg next week. Particulars will be given as early as possible.

A FREAK IN NATURE.—On the 12th ult., a son of Mr. Samuel Koehler, of Hanover, says the Allentown Democrat, killed a large rattle snake, about as thick as a man's arm, which on its dying throes brought forth twenty yOung ones, measuring seven inches in length, one of which had two distinct and well devel oped heads, forming a fork in the rear of the neck.

SUDDEN DEATH. —Mrs. Westheffer, wife of Mr. John Westheffer, of Newville, Cumber land county, died very suddenly on Wednes day afternoon. She had been washing in the forenoon, ate ,her dinner in usual health, and ironed afterwards. She then went up stairs, as supposed, to do some chamber work, and shortly after, her daughter, hearing a slight noise, went up, and found her mother just ex piring. A physician was hastily summoned, but too late. Mrs. W. was dead before he arrived. The pronounced the disease appo plexy. GOOD progress is making by the Post-office authorities charged with putting into effect the railway postal system. Two cars are nearly completed by the Erie Company ; and four other cars will be made immediately.— Next month the benefits of the new system. will be extended from New York westward on that line, to Salamanca, near Erie, and thence over the Atlantic and Great Western Railioad. to Cincinnati. At an early day the Postoffice railway cars will run to St. Louis, giving the people of the West and of New York and the east respectively one day's earlier mail con nection with the region traversed by the cars. NATURALIZING DISCRARGED SOLDIERS. --It does not seem to be generally known that in the year 180 an important amendment was made to the naturalization laws of the United States, by which an alien of the age of twenty-one years and upwards, who had enlisted, or might thereafter enlist in the ar mies of the United States, either in the regu lar or volunteer forces, may become a citizen by virtue of his service. The act was passed July 17, 1862. It secures to any alien who has been a soldier and has been honorably dis charged, the right of citizenship upon - his own petition, without a previous declaration of intentions. tre. must prove thlt he has resided in the United States one year before his application, and also prove his good moral character in the ordinary manner, and must also producoproof that he has-been honora bly discharged. There are many aliens who have beeri in service and Whose time has ex pired, to whom this privilege will apply, and it is as well that the terms of the law should be generally understood. =l=lll FIFTY-SEVEN I—This evening the fifty-sev enth entertainment of the present season will be given at the theatre, and the at traction for the occasion. is immense.

CAPTAIN WAS CONYEETPX.-At a so cial gathering night before last, says the Chat tanooga Gazette of October 13, during the evening Capt. Sutherland, Assistant Adjutant General, formerly of Gen. Steedman's staff, captured daring Stoneman's raid, and recently exchanged, was present, and was toasted, and made a happy response. We regret that every soldier in the army, 'and every patriot in the land, could not have listened to his remarks. Captain Sutherland, before his capture, was well known as a warm and earnest 31'Clellan man. In the remarks alluded to, he men tioned this fact; said that he had changed base in this particular. He was now for Lin coln, because, during his imprisonment, his 'guards at Charleston, and every rebel he met, with one exception, learning that he was a Democrat, electioneered with him for if'Clel lan. That exception stole an opportunity to whisper in his ear that the South was only holding out in hopes of Lincoln's defeat, and assured hilt that if Lincoln was elected the war would instantly end and unconditionally cease, as the South would then see that re eistance was no longer practicable. CaPtaire Sutherland declares that he never could nor never would vote for any man at the requeft , of tamed traittom: • • Item The Last Act, and • the Words of General BUDA., One of the Philadelphia papers gives the following interesting account of the closing scenes in the life of Gen. D. B. Dirney, who died at his home is that city, a few days 11 ; 40 : TUE LAST ACT OF LOYALTY General Birney reached his home in this city on the 11th instant, the day of the State election ; and notwithstanding his extreme physical prostration, he insisted upon being taken to the polls and casting his vote in the contest. To this point he was conveyed in his carriage, and supported by two of his aids who had accompanied him from the army, he stepped up to the polls, and there deposited his vote for the country that he had so long and honorably served. How sublime the :et ! for even at that time the stamp of death wog impressed upon the brow of the warrior. =I During the progress of the insidious _ual ady which was th cause of the death of Gen. Birney, he was frequently delirious. During these moments, when reason was temporally unseated, he constantly was under the hallu cination that he was still in the field at the head of the proud legions that he had lee so often to 'victory. He was frequently heart to exclaim by the anxious watchers at his )ed side :—"Bring up the guns ;" "Advance on the left ;" and other military orders, the counterpart of those issued on the baLle field. His last words spoken in the delirium that preceded his death were, " Boys, lefep ;,amour eyes on the flag !" Thus the brave 301- dier "kept the bird in his bosom" to his dyng moment, and his final utterance will ring as a battle-cry in the coming fight by the scarred veterafts who loved their commander so wdl.

Renovo and Emporium TOWN LOTS FOR, SAL THE PHILADELPHIA AND ERIE LAND CORPANY, chartered by an act of the Legialature of Pennsylvania, otters for sale choice lots for dwellings and business purposes In the above new towns on the line of the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad. RENOVO has been selected as the site for the exten sive shops for building and repairing the rolling stock of the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad,•of which the Penna. Railroad Company are now lessees. It is 92 miles west of Sunbury, and 190 miles east of Erie. The town is beau tifully situated on the margin of the west branch of the Susquehanna river, in the county of Clinton, and. A sur rounded by romantic and attractive scenery. The Rail road Company are erecting an immense Locomotive Round House, Repair Shops for Cars and Engines, Car Building shop, Iron and Brass Furnaces, and Dwellings for the Superintendent and other officers. A splendid Rotel, with which are connected arrangements for feeding passengers on the most extensive scale, has been com menced. All these buildings are of the most permanent and substantial character, of brick and iron, and are in accordance with the immense business anticipated on the completion of this great Railroad, so long anxiously looked for, and now an accomplished fact—the last rait connecting the Susquehanna river with Lake Erie having been laid on Saturday, July 2d, 1804. A Company has been chartered by the Legislature for supplying the town with gas and water, and the scat r werks are nearly completed. Churches will be erected immediately. The situation of RENOVO is entirely healthy, and as the dimensions of the town are limited by nature, the value of the lots muse appreciate greatly in the course of a few years. EMPORICII will certainly bi the most important cow. mercial point 'between Lock Haven and Warren, a ffis lance of 158 miles. It is near the centre of the tunnel, 47 miles west of Rruovo; 139 miles from Sunbury and 149 miles from Erie It is near the Junction of the Drift wood Branch of the Sinnemahoning, with West Creek, Portage Creek and North Creek, the Valleys of which streams make it the most accessible point on the Phila delphia and Erie railroad to a very extensive district of country. The moment the projected railroad connecting it with the city of Rochester, N. Y., shall be completed, few interior towns in the State will surpass it in business capabilities. An excellent graded road now connects it with Coudersport, thereat a Juatice of Patter county. It !s alsa connected with Smethport, the seat of Justice of McKean county. .'Emporium is the County Seat of Cam eron county; it has a handsome Court Rouse, and the Land Company have just completed a large and commo dious Hotel, which will immediately be opened to the public. The Railroad Company are about to enct alum& some and permanent Passsenger Station at a central point near the Rotel and Court Brame. The place is healthy, and excellent water is abundant. It is in the midst of one oh the finest White Pine regions in Pennsylvania. As a manufacturing town it has great advantages; coal, lumber, stone, bark for tannerier am abundant, and its railroad communications with the great lakes and all points of importance in the seaboard are unsurpassed. This place -was selected thirty years ago as a point of im portance, and a town laid out with the prophetic name of EMPORIUM, but the difficulty of access has prevented Its development so entirely that it is mainly known for the excellence Of hunting and trout fishing in the vicinity. The completion of the. Philadephia and . Erie railroad must soon make it a place of great importance as a distri buting point for goods of all kinds, and it offers great advantages for persons of moderate capital who desire to identify theruseitres with the early history of a thriv ing town. Lithographic Maps of bath -towns are now ready, and Mr. GIDEON J. BALL, General Supei intendent, will furnish all necessary information on the promises, or by letter.

The his tory of the world scarcely affords an example of the rapid rise of any article into general and commercial im portance, as has been that of Petroleum. From a com paratively limited homy traffic, it has sprung Into a vast foreign trade, amounting percaps to $50,000,000 per an num, and is only yet in its infancy. From twenty-five cents per barrel, as it was a few years since, when thero was little home consumption, and no export trade, it has advanced to twenty doirars per barrel, with a foreign de mand that cannot be supplied. That vast region presents inexhaustible fountains of wealth that have so long been hidden deep in the earth. I am prepared to dispose of a limited number of shares of Stack in the celebrated "BURNING SPRING OIL COMPANY OF PENNSYLVANIA, with a capital stock of $1,000,C001 vast territory of more than one thousand two hundred acres of land, situated in the midst of the most valuable and most productive oil regions of Venango county, Pennsylvania, and the great Kana wha Valley in West Virginia. Two (2) wells aro now yielding largely and four others are being rapidly sunk. I am also prepared to offer a certain number cf shares in the .4 Rathbone Petroleum OR Company of.Pennviownia, for sale. Capital Stock $500,000, par value $lO. 1 can assure my friends that these are reliable companies, and will rank first among the safest and best paying companies in the country, opening, as they certainly will, a vast field for substantial and permanent investment. This stock will only be offered for a rew weeks, as I ex pect to leave very soon for "Oil Dorado," to superintend the operations of the company lu person. • Descriptions of the land, together with full particulars and all the information desired, will be given on applica tion either in person or through the mails.
