HARRISBURG, PA
TiIURSDAI EVENING, OCTOBER 27, 1864.
!OWN AND COITNTUY.
ME. JOHN LIVINGSTON, an aged and respect
able citizen of Washington township, York
county, died at his residence, yesterday morn
ing. He was the father-in-law of Mr. Eli Hol
linger, of this city.
THE Springfield Republican—whose article on
"Gen. Wallace and Andy Johnson" is going
the rounds of the copperhead press—is not a
Union journal, but a rank copperhead sheet,
published at Springfield, Mass.
THERE was a sickly gathering at the court
house, last night, to hear some of the played
out copperhead politicians defafne the U. S.
Government, but who forgot to say a word
against their bosom friends in politics, Jeff
Davis and his followers. The only thing want
ing to render the meeting respectable in point
of numbers *as an audience. The furious
ringing of the bell for an hour and a half fail
ed to attract a crowd.
DISCHARGED.---Nathaniel Friedman, the
Philadelphia Jew who was arrested on a
charge of receiving the goods stolen from
D. Eppley A: Co., or this city, was up for a
final hearing yesterday. The Alderman stated
that the officers had not been able to obtain
any additional testimony, and that he did not
consider the evidence adduced sufficient to
justify the holding of the accused. He was,
therefore, discharged.
MURDER IN CHAMBERSBURG. -111:. Jacob Sweit
zer, a well-known engineer on the Cumberland
Valley Railroad, was killed, last night, at his
residence in Chambersburg. We learn that
several soldiers, who were intoxicated, went
to Mr. Sweitzer's house and demanded ad
mittance, which wa,§ refused. They then
left, informing Mr. S. that they would return
in thirty minutes, and if not admitted, the
house would be burned. During their absence
Mr. Sweitzer went to a neighbor's for assist
ance, and upon his return was met by the sol
diers, ono of whom struck him on the head
with a musket, killing him almost instantly.
Mr. Sweitzer was a harmless, quiet citizen,
and his murder can be added to the long cat
alogue of crime caused by bad women and
bad whisky. We are informed that the sol
diers have been arrested.
PEIMONAL. - Corporal James l(lcGowan ac
companied by six privates of Co G, 201st P. V.,
(Capt. Ensminger,) arrived here on Monday,
having in charge thirteen drafted men and.
deserters, en route for the Provost Marshal's
headquarters in Chambersburg, to which place
they were taken on Tuesday. The men had
been "gathered up" in Bedford county. Cor
poral McGowan and his squad returned from
Chambersburg yesterday, and left this city
to-day, to rejoin the company, at Bloody Run.
They report the boys to be in good condition,
generally well, and enjoying themselves finely.
Their camp is in an excellent location, and
very healthy.
Major John T. Morgan is in command of
the detachment at Bloody Run, and is almost
worshipped by all the officers and men in
camp. He has proven himself the right man
in the right place, and by his kindness to all
has won the respect of every person in his
command.
BRIG. GEN. Jos. F. KNIPE is in this city,
having just arrived from Sherman's army.--
He is looking well, and brings a good report
concerning the army of the South-west. The
General has on every occasion fought gallantly
for the good old - Union. His numerous friends
welcome him home.
"THE TODD Smosy"—The TVasking ion Re.
publican thus disposes of the outrageous assault
on the President of the United States in his
private relations,made by the opposition jour
nal in this city, some days since. After this
expose and explanation of a base libel, we
have, no comments to offer. The Republican
says:
First. That Mrs. Lincoln never had a bro
ther John.
Second. She has no deceased brother of any
name who left a widow.
Third. Mrs. Lincoln and her father were
born at and near Lexington, Ky., and none of
the family, so far as known, ever resided in
South Carolina, or North Carolina.
Fourth. No widow, by the name of Todd,
now living at Harrisburg, Pa., ever saw either
Mr. or Mrs. Lincoln to their knowledge, or is
in any manner related to them.
Fifth. The chivalric sister, whom General
Butler says did not "dare" him, or behave
unladylike, for the very good reason that she
did not even take the trouble to make herself
known, was named Martha, not "Julia."
So much for the Democratic mode of war
fare upon the President's family.
We leave the editor of the Harrisburg Pa
triot and Union—delightful names for so truth
ful a print--with the loyal people of this
country.
COPPERHEAD OUTRAGE - Murderous Assmit,
upon Unoffending Citizens. —The foul principles
of the peace copperheads which have been in
stilled in the minds of the young, are already
beginning to exhibit themselves in murderous
assaults upon unoffending • citizens, on our
streets. lost night, as the Republican Lavin
eibles were' marching through the streets, ac
companied by the drum corps, disturbing no
one, they were attacked by some of the, young
blackguards of the copperhead party, who
threw stones atthe procession, striking Mr.
Jens Frsums on the head, very seriously in
juring him, and breaking a number of lamps.
Mr. P. very narrowly escaped being instantly
killed. Stones were also thrown at the trans
parency in front of the Invincible Hall, and
it was damaged to some extent.
This is the most hellish outrage that has
been perpetrated here within several years,
and it is earnestly hoped that all law-abiding
citizens will assist to bring the scoundrels to
justice. They should be punished to the Hill
extent of the law. Their arrest and convic
tion may be the means of saving them from
the'gallows, which they will certainly reach if
permitted to run at large and continue to in
cite to riot, commit assaults, and perhaps
murder. The copperheads howl at the
thought of the country warring against an
open enemy, and cry peace, while at the same
time their young men are being trained to re
sist the laws, openly attack peaceable citizens,
defame the Government, sympathize with
traitors, and violate all rules of decency thus
placing themselves on a level with cut-throats
and assassins, whose presence will be an eye
sore to any community.
Mr. John Fisher, the unfortunate victim of
last .?/ight'u outrage, is a quietrlitoilbnaive
zen of Linglestown, where his family resides.
He is employed at the tin store of Mr. Geo.
Lailaek, in this city. .
DEATH OF AN -OLD.-Dzrannaa.--air. Jacob
Allgafer, a well known citizen of Reading,
Pa., died on Monday, in the 73d year of his
age, of apoplexy. He was a soldier of the
war of 1812, and marched to the defence of
Baltimore in the company of Capt. Lotz.

DEATH, FACQI THE KICK OF A Hossz.--Mr.
Samuel Hotick, one of the old and respected
citizens of Cornwall township, Lebanon
county, was kicked by one of his horses
while entering the stable, on Saturday last,
and ilijured so badly that he died on Monday
evening.
MASS MEETING IN LEBANON.-A Union mass
meeting will be held in Lebanon on Tuesday
next. Gov. Curtin, Hon. John Cessna and
Col. Taylor (of Tennessee) are announced as
the speakers. In the evening a grand torch
light procession will take ,place., Extensive
arrangements have been made to render the
meeting immense.
ROBBERY IN TRE,BRIDGE.-At an early hour
last night two men were knocked down in the
river bridge, robbed, and stripped of a por
tion of their clothing. We have been unable
to learn their names. It is hoped that the
plunderers may be arrested and punished.—
They were seen running out of the western
end of the bridge, and may yet be identified.
STOCK SUBSCIIIEIXD. —The books of the Con
nellsville and Southern Pennsylvania Railroad
Company were °pealed in Bedford last week,
when the Board of Commissioners was organ

appointment of 5: L: Russell, Chairman. One
hundred and two thousand and two shares of
stocks were taken, amounting to five millions
one hundred and ten thousand dollars. •
DEATH FROM FALL! No EROBT a TREE.—An
accident occurred on the 19th, at 9 o'clock,
resulting in the almost instant death of Mr.
John Martz, residin g in- Walker township,
Juniata county. He fell" rom a chestnut tree,
a height of about forty feet, breaking his
neck. This is still another warning to men
and boys. Mr. Martz leaves a widow and
numerous children..

INTERNAL REVENVE DECISION.—The Com.:
inissioners of Internal Revenue have decided
that "Deeds of partition between tenants in
common, are not deeds of conveyance by
which title to re al estate is conveyed, nor does
a consideration pass between the parties, but
the object of file deed is simply to limit and
define the rig'ats of the respective parties ;
therefore, they' are not chargeable with stamp
duties. "
PEruu Mn rns, _Esq., of this city, and one of
our most intelligent and respectable German
Union men, is: doing good service in the
cause of his country, by delivering German
speeches at various points in Northumberland
county. On Saturday afternoon he is to
speak at Gem' getown, and in the evening at
Scranton. 31 ir. Meyer is an able and a sincere
man, deservii ig of the respectable attention of
any audience of intelligence. We commend
him to our • friends in Northumberland and
wherever he appears to address the people on
the vital ism] .es of the campaign.
THE STATI ; CAPITOL IN A BLAZE OF GLOEY.-
The Largest and most Enthusiastic Local Meet
ing of the Cat npaign—The Hall of the House of
Representatives Crammed to Suffocation—Great
Speech by the. Vice President of the United States.
—Every candid man, whether friend or foe,
must'admit that %very Union meeting held in
this city fluting the great political campaign
which is just; drawing to a close, is an enlarge
ment on 'that which preceded it, each meeting
increasin g in numbers and enthusiasm, until
the gathering last evening became really a
monster local demonstration, filling every
available sps.ce within the hall of the - House
of Representatives, crowding the rotunda,
blooking up the windows, and attracting
on the outside of the building an immense
number of patient and enthusiastic listenerd.
Among the audience inside were a great many
ladies of the highest respectability, beauty
and iutelligence, whose presence is ever the
security of order, and whose recognition of
their country's cause is: the best evidence of
its purity.
While the concourse ..;iust described was
assembling in and around the Capitol, the
Republican Invincibles were gathering at their
headquarters, whence they proceeded to escort
the distinguished orators of the evening, Hort.
Hannibal Hamlin and Maj. Harry White, to
the hall of the House. The appearance of
the Invincibles, becuing their colored lamps,
and preceded by a splendid drum corps,
escorting the speakers, creatod much enthu
siasm.
On motion of George Bergn er, His Excel
lency, Governor Andrew G. Curtin, was ap
pointed President of the meeting.
A committee consisting of Gen. A. L. Rus
sell, George W. Knox und John J. Shoemaker,
was appointed to watt on the Governor and
conduct him to the m eating. On the appear
ance of the Governor,. the meeting was organ
ized by the following officers:

Vice President Hamlin was introduced to the
meeting amid much enthusiasm, and after
order had been motored, proceeded to the de
livery of a very able speech. He related the
causes of the WaT, and traced them all directly
to the institutio , a of slavory and the arristoc
racy which exists on slave labor. He recounted
the encouragement to treason, and proved con
clusively that fit originated with the leaders of
the Democratic party. He laid bare the horrors
of rebellion, and fixed its bloodshed and or
phanage on the brow. of James Buchanan.
The speaker then reviewed the Chicago plat
form, and proved the falsity of its professed
adhesion to the Union, "in the past as in the
present," by shfrwing from history that the
Democraidc - party was always false to the. Gov
ernment. He proved that James Buchanan
winked. • at . The stealing of guns to arm the
rebeln, and allowed the sending away of our
navy, to render the Government powerless in
crushing insurrection. In this.manner, Mr.
Hamlin discussed the homes of the campaign
for about two hours, eliciting the frequent
hearty cheers of his audience.
At the close of the Vice President's speech,
loud calls were made for: Maj. Harry White,
who delivered a speech'of great power and
telling effect;: during which he narrated the
story of, his suirfrist,g . while a pri son e r
mond and otherpqtynis of the. South.

THE SEA or ICE, OE, TEE PRATER OF THE
WEECEEM—Determined to maintain the good
reputation of the Theatre, and to render that
establishment the best place of amusement
in the State, out of Philadelphia, Mr. Rouse
has, at a cost of one thousand dollars, made
the necessary arrangements to place before
our people the greatest drama ever performed
in America, entitled Tun. SEA OF ICE, on, A
TEInET FOB Gus). The scenery is entirely
new, and of the most costly character, and
has been made expressly for this grand play.
An immense sea of ice occupies the entire stage;
upon it, cast adrift, by mutineers, are a captain,
his wife and child ; a storm arises, causing
the icebergs to disappear, and give way to a
tossing, raging body of water. With the te
nacity of death, the fated Captain and his
wife cling to a fragment of ice, from which
they gradually sink and are engulfed in the
furious waters ; but, with the divinity of a
parent's affection, first placing their infant
upon a massive block of ice and instructing
her to appeal to the Omnipotent Power for
succor. The mist rises, as if symbolizing
Heaven's acceptance of the orphan's prayer.
A gorgeously beautiful AURORA BOREALIS
resplendent with its sun-tinted variegated
hues; illumines the firmament ; barely dis
coverable in the distance, a welcome barque
appears, gradually enlarging in size ; as with
the speed of wind, as if impelled by mercy's
breath, it comes to the orphan's rescue.—
Here follow many interesting scenes of the
most thrilling character, followed by a most
magnificent gallery, terrace and park of the
palace of Del Monte in Paris. Woman's will ;
the hour of retribution! concluding with a
superb tableau of the REALIZATION OF
THE MOTHER'S PRAYER. Let no one
fail to witness this grand drama-the most
magnificent ever presented to our people.

[For the T2LSGR4PH:]
An Improvement:
Thanks to some clever genius, in the name
of all Post Office clerks and sensible people
generally, for the new style of addressing
letters! According to the common custom,
the face of the envelope is often scribbled
over with specifications of various kinds that
are of no manner of use until the letter
shall have reached its destination, i. e. the
Post Office at which it is to be delivered.
And yet the name of this office is usually
stuck away down in one corner, crowded and
cramped, in many cases, so es to be hardly
legible.
How much more sensible to place it, in
large, fair letters, right in the midst of the
envelope, so as to have it strike the eye of
the Postmaster at once, and make sure of
having it sent to the right office. Once safely
received there, the special delivery will soon
bring it into the proper hands. Thus:

THE PHILADELPHIA. AND ERIE LAND
COMPANY, chartered by an act of the Legislatu re
of Pennsylvania, oilers for sate choice lots for dwelli ngs
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
thoThiladelphia 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 Ls 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 Engines, Car
Building shop. Iron and Brass Furnaces, and Dwellings
for the 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 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 au accomplished fact—the last rail
connecting the Susquehanna river with Lake Erie having
been laid on Saturday, July 24, 1864.
A Company has been chartered by the Legislature for
supplying the town with gas and. water, and the wet , r
works are nearly completed. Churches will be erected
immediately. The situation ...at RENOVO is entirely
healthy, and as the dimensions of the town are limited
by nature, the value of the iota must appreciate greatly
in the course of a few years.
EMPORIUM will certainly be the most important com
mercial point between Lock Haven and Warren, a idis
tepee of 158 miles. It is near the centre of the railroad,
47 miles west of Repovo,• im miles from Sunbury and
149 miles from Erie. It le near the of the Drift
wood Branch of the Sinnemahoeing, with West Creek,
Portage Creek and North Creek, the Valleys of which
streams ate gibe 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 Rooliester, I. Y., shall be completed.,
few 'atelier towns in the State will surpass it in business
capabilities. An exeellent graded road now connects it
with Coudersport, theseat of Justice of Potter county.
It is also connected with Smothport, the seat of Justice of
McKean county. Eitiorium 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 erect Et hand
some and permanent Passsenger Station ate central point
near the Hotel and Court House. The place is healthy,
and excellent water is abundant. It is is the midst of
one qf the 'blest White Pipe regions in Pennsylvania.
As a manufacturing town it has great advantages; coal,
lumber, stone, bark for tanneries are abundant, and
railroad communications with the great lakes and all
points of invariance in the seaboard are uus9rpassed.
This place was selected thirty years ago as a point of im
portance, and a town laid oat with the prophetic name of
E.We ORIUM, 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 Philadelphia and Erie railroad
must soon makallit a place of great importance as a distri
buting point for goods of all kinds, and it edam great
advantages for persons of moderate capital wltio desire
to identify themselves with the early histpry of a thriv
ing town.
Lithographic Maps of both towns are now ready, and
air. GIDEON T. BALL, General Superintendent, will
furnish all necessary information on the premises, or by
letter.
He may be addressed to the care or H. P. RUTTER,
