no doubt of the result, if the Union voters do
their duty.

THE NEW IRON MINES in DERRY. —We re
cently noticed the opening of new iron ore
mines in Derry township, but were not ad
vised of their extent. We have since been
informed that those on the land of Peter
Frantz and Widow Missimer yield fifty tons of
the best quality of Hemetite ore per day. On
David Plouse's land there are some five hun
dred acres of ore ; and fourteen different
leases have been granted. All are yielding
large quantities of first quality ore. These
new mines must prop very valuable, and of
great advantage to dilllfers in iron.

of a large number of our citizens, the man
ager of the Theatre has consented to have the
famous play of Ihicia, Tom's Cana performed
this evening. This thrilling exhibition of
life among the lowly is worthy of patronage,
and particularly so on this occasion, as there
is a line cast of characters. Miss Fanny Den
ham will appear in her favorite part, as Topsy,
and sing a number of songs; Mr. Fisher as
Uncle Tom; Mr. Meeker as Legree and Barris;
Mr. Rouse as the Kentuckian and the Yankee.
Let Brant's Hall be crowded to-night.

Passover..—This morning we were favored
with a call from Maj. Charles C. Davis, of the
Seventh Penna Cavalry. The Major has just
concluded a term of over three years service.
He has proven himself a gallant soldier,, who
never turned his back to the enemy.
Capt. John T. Efisminger, of the 201st
Penna. Reg., is in town. He represents his
company as being in fine condition, and de
nies the truth of the rumor that their camp,
at Bloody Run, is in an unhealthy condition.
Capt. George F. Ross, of the 194th Penna.
Reg., (one hundred days' men) was in town
yesterday, looking well, and giving a good re
port concerning the health, etc., of his com
pany.
TUE FiornrimMisszuo A FAvosrra. —George
H. Pendleton, one of the peace sneaks who
have been laboring for three years and more,
to bow this great nation into the dust before
the frowns and the swords of traitors, and the
candidate of the copperhead sympathizers
with treason for the Vice Presidency, passed
through this city on Saturday last, en route for
New York, without his dough-face followers
in Harrisburg beim) , b aware of the fact. Mr.
Pendleton goes to New York, doubtless, to
take counsel with Belmont, and will.of course
be more ready to take the bastard jew's mo
ney than his advice. The sneaking manner
in which Pendleton passed through Harris
burg, may be regarded as the best evidence
he has yet given of his fitness to be the cop
perhead candidate for the Vice Presidency.

BEV. Joss WALKEN JACKSON—A challenge
to Enter the Po/itica/ Arena.—The opposition
organ of Friday last contained a letter from a
gentleman named, Geo F. Hall, who is a stranger
to us, challenging Rev. J. Walker Jackson to
a discussion of the political issues at stake in
the contest for the Presidency. Of course
Rev. Jackson could not accept such a chal
lenge, however able we all know he is, and
ready as we believe he world be at all times
and in all places to defend his country in de
bate ; but it must be remembered that Rev.
J. is no politician, and in his speeches in behalf
of the country, never discusses the political
bearing of the issues. He is guided in his course
alone by the moral bearing of the issues at
stake. He does not defend men or advocate par
ticular measures of government. He merely oc
cupies a position as-a friend of his country,'
opposed to treason, opposed to rebellion, and
opposed to all the causes leading Ito both:
Hence, we assert, Rev. Jackson cannot, and
we have no doubt will not accept a challenge
to enter the political arena as a 'Wrangler.
He is for his country—doing it good service,
and has no time at this stage of the conflict to'
bandy words with any man, and particularly
with one not tutgalifiedly devoted to the cause
of the eocu2try. :i
THAI KSGlVlNG.—President Lincoln has is.
sued a proclamation. designating Thursday,
.the 24th . of
. November, as a . day of National
PrOvidenoe; 'ilifilhethe past
year, has protected us from "unfriendly de
signs abroad,".and vouchsafed us "many and
signal victories over the enemy, who of Our
household." Unusual health has been granted
to our armies and our sailors on the rivers and
seas. All our departments of industry have
been abundantly rewarded; our population
has been largely increased, and new re
sources of wealth have been opened up to our
people. Moreover, Almighty God has filled
the hearts and minds of the people with cour
age and resolution in the great hour of trial
to the republic; and the Chief 'Magistrate
urges upon our citizens to assemble on the
24th day of November, and return thanks to
the Ruler of all the Earth for his goodness
and mercies toward us in this the day of our
national peril.

Emirs OF Prasouses Feast Ammtasosvuzz.,
GA.- Their Travels through the Southern
Steareps—Condition of. Affairs at. Anderson
vile, etc.—To-day we received a call from two
young men—Sergeants George Carus. and P.
Lichtenfels, of Co. 1), Fourth Penn'a Cavalry,
who, with Corporal L 'J". Robb, of the same
company, James Burden, of the Sixth Mis
souri Cavalry, and John M. Fargo, of ,the
One Hundred and Forty-fifth Penn'a Vols.,
have just reached here, having escaped from
the rebel prisons at Andersonville, on the
State line between Georgia and North Caro
lina, after having been confined there eleven
months. They, with many others, were cap
tured by the enemy at Sulphur Springs, Va.,
on the 22th of October, 1863. On the 9th of
last month, (September,) while being re
moved, by railroad, from Andersonville to
Charleston, South Carolina, thirteen of the
prisoners escaped from the train, by over
powering the guards of the rearcar, who were
boys of some fourteen years of age--rebel
conscripts. The train was passing - through
a woods at the time, and the thirteen prisoners
who escaped ran a distance of three miles be
fore they were pursued. Bloodhounds were
put upon their track, but the boys applied
pitch or turpentine to their feet, and , the
hounds were foiled. [The Men separatedinto
three squads, one of which was ; composed of
the five whose names are given above. Of the
others nothing definite has been heard, but it
is supposed they were re-captured.] Nineteen
days were passed in the swamps and fields of
rebeldom, during which time the only flood
obtained by the men consisted of corn, sweet
potatoes and melons, with the exception of
the last day, when a sheep was caught and
killed, and eaten without salt. In the course'
of their travels they reached Granville, on the
West Point railroad, and followed the line of
the road a distance of twenty miles, to New
land. Finding that Hood's army had fallen
back they left the railroad and traveled a bee
siderable distance along by-roads, and through
woodland thickets-Lfinaily reaching the rail
road at another point, making very narrow
escapes from capture. At the end of the nine
teen days our picket lines near Atlanta were
reached, and the men were once more free.
They confirm all preVious .- statements of the
suffering of our prisoners at Andersonville.
The rations consist of a .half pcirmd.ef corn
bread, the corn not half ground, two ounpes of
pork, and a small quantity of black :peas.
During the eleven months imprisonment of
these men, over eleven thousand deaths oc
curred. among the prisoners. The dead are
buried in rows, without any marks to indicate
who are the occupants of the narrow hOuses,
except in cases where rude boards are erected
byht friend among the prisoners.
Frequent attempts have been made by the
prisoners to escape, but traitors among them
always apprised the rebel authorities of their
intentions.
Thirty-six members of Co. D, Fourth Penna.
Cavalry, were captured and confined at Ander
sonville. Of that number fifteen had already
died when the subjects of our notice escaped.
For the information of thair friends in this
State, we publish the names of the deceased,.
together with. the date of. the death of each.
They are as follows: - '
Samuel Read, died March 13.
L T Fry, died April 24.

men who escaped haire been mustered out of

to receive the hearty greetings of loved ones.
BUSINESS ITEMS.
Pau osoray.—The philosophy of life, in our
opinion, matures from the experience of a long
life, assisted and made comprehensive through
the struggles incident to the man who honestly
discharges his moral obligations, and provides,
from this world's goods, or accumulates pecu
niary resources for this life's comforts, and dis
seminates all the good in his power. Our phi
losophy teaches us to tap all the avenues at our
command to keep posted up with all the daily
changes occurring in the commercial world.
The ups and downs in prices tax all our inge
nuity. The unsettled condition of our coun
try, and , the fear of commercial disaster, have
presented such ghostly forebodings to the
minds of some merchants in our Atlantic
cities, that institutions, called panic auctions,
h ave sp r ung up, which hold out peculiar in
ducements. C. L. Bownian, No. 1, corner of

the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad, of which the Penna.
Railroad Company are now lessees. It is 92 miles west of
Sunbury, and 196 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 is sur
rounded by romantic and attractive scenery. The Rail-
road Company are erecting an immense Locomotive
Round House, Repair Shops for Cars and Engin es , Gar
Building shop. Iron and Brass Furnaces, and Dwellings
for tbe Superintendent and other officers. A splendid
Hotel, 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 prick and iron, and are In
accordance with the immense business anticipated on the
completion of this great Railroad, se long anxiously
looked for, and now an accomplished fact—the last rail
connecting the Susquehanna river with Lake Erie having
been laid on Saturday, July 2d, 1864.
A Company has been chartered by the Legislature for
supplying the town with. gas and water, and the water
works 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 must appreciate greatly
in the course of a few years.
. .
EMPORIUM will certainly be the most important com
mercial point between LOCkHaven and Warren, a dis
tance of 198 miles. It is near the eentre of tae railroad,
47 miles west of Renovo; 198 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 snake it the most accessible point on the Phila
delphia and Erie railroad - le, a_very extensive district of
country. The moment the'projected railroad sentieeting
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, the seat of Justice of Potter county.
It is also connected with Smethr.ort, the seater Jestice of
McKean county. - Emporium is the County Seat of Cam
arm county; it has a handsome Court Rouse, and the
Land Company have just completed a large and 'commo
dious Hotel, which wilt immediately be opened to the
public. The Railroad Company are about to erect a hand-
some and permanent Passienger Station at a central point
near the Hotel and Court House. The place is healthy,
and excellent water is abundant. It is in the midst of
one of the finest White Pine regions in Pennsylvania.
As a manufanturing town it has
.great advantages; coal,
lumber, stone, bark for tanneries are 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 Ina point of im
portance, and a town laid ont 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 treat fishing in the vicinity.
The completion of the Philadelphia and Erie railroad
must soon make it a place or 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 them Selves with the early history of a thriv
ing town.
Lithographic Maps of bath towns are now ready, and
Mr. GIDEON . J. IsALL, General Superintendent, will
furnish all necessary Information on the premises, or by
letter.
He may be addressed to the care of H. P. RUTTER,
Secretary and Treasurer, Philadelphia and Erie Land Com
pany, No. 205,14 Walnut street Philadelphia, or at Renrivo,

A RARE CHANCE TO MAKE MONEY !
Valuable Oil StoCks for Sale!
TO capitalists and others who wish a good,
safe and reliable paying investment : lam now of
faring a limited number of shares of the most valuable
Oil Stocks over offered for rale in this country. 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. Frdm a com
paratively limited home traffic, it has sprung into a vast
foreign trade, imounting perhaps to $50,000,000 per an
num, and is only yet in its infancy. From twcaty.flve
cents per barrel, as it was a. few years since, when there
was little home consumption, and no export trade, it has
advanced to twenty dollars 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 Stock in the celebrated "BURNIIVG SPRING OIL
COMPANY OF PENNSYLVANIA, with a capital
stock of $l,OOO 000! A vast territory of more than one
thousand two iundred acres of land,. situated in the
midst of the most valuable and most productive oil regions
of Penang° county, Pennsylvania, and the great Kana
wha Valley in West Virginia. Two (2) wells are now
yielding largely and four others are being rapidly sunk.
lam also prepared to offer a certain number of shares
in the "RaMbene Peirokum Oil Company of Pennsylvania,
for sale. Capital Stock $500,000, par value $lO. I can
assure my friends that thesetwe reliable companies, and
will rank first among the safest and bestpaylng 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 few weeks, as I ex
pect to leave very soon for "Oil Dorado," to superintend
-the operatiorit of the company in person.
Deacriptions 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.
