NEW GROCERY. —Messrs. Wm. M. Gray &
Co. have opened a Grocery store at the old
stand of Houser & Lochman, on Market
Square.. A large stock of groceries of every
description will always be found on hand, and
at low prices. Give the new firm a call.
SUBSTITUTES. —A number of substitutes
have been placed in the service within a few
days past, by our citizens. Prices have
greatly declined since August, and, as the re
bellion is likely to close ere long, no doubt
the rates will yet be materially reduced.
HARRISBURG IN YMTOII.-1111'. j. W. Jones,
of this city, has invented a very simple and
apparently useful machine for backing books.
Mr. J. has had letters patent issued to him
from the 11. S. Patent Office for the invention,
which will no doubt be of great service to
book binders throughout the country.
Ho, FOR Etraors,---Mr. George Dress, having
disposed of his restaurant and property, on
Third street, is about to leave America, for
the purpose of visiting his fatherland. He
desires to return his sincere thanks to his
numerous friends for their patronage, and will
bear them in grateful remembrance during his
European tour, hoping that he may find them
prospering when he returns. He expects to
be absent until July next.
I=IMOZZI
THE ceremonies attending the installation
of Rev. Mr. Mitchell as pastor of the Old
School Presbyterian Church, which took place
on Tuesday evening, are reported as having
been very interesting and impressive. The
addresses on the occasion were highly edify
ing, as well as appropriate. Mr. Mitchell is
a minister of great ability, and, as pastor of
the congregation, cannot fail to accomplish a
great amount of good.
THE PRESIDENT PETROLEUM CODIPANY. --The
attention of our readers is called to the adver
tisement of this company, in our columns. J.
W. Simonton, Esq., of our city, after satisfy
ing himself that the company is what it claims
to be, has consented to receive subscriptions,
and will be pleased to exhibit maps showing
the location of the lands of the company, and
to furnish all other information to those who
may call upon him.
Da. ClLan,' AT THE JONES HOUSE.—QWIn to
the unexpected success attending the visit of
Dr. Crane to this city, and a large number of
persons being desirous to consult with him,
the Doctor hag consented to remain here until
Monday morning next. He invites the afflict
ed to call at his room, No. 27, Jones House,
at any time after 8 A. at., each day. Dr. Crane
has been drawing a constant crowd of visitors.
We would advise all who are afflicted to call
at his room. He can describe your disease
without asking any questions.
Om Fine CompANLEs.-The war has made
great havoc in our fire companies. Nearly all
the able-bodied men connected with them
have entered the service of their country, and
there are barely sufficient members left to
maintain the organizations. The other even
ing, when the alarm was sounded, we noticed
some of the firemen dragging the apparatus
along the streets at a slow rate, on account of
a scazeity of members. At this season of the
yetis it is highly necessary that the fire com
panies should be ready to do efficient ser
vice at a moment's notice. Autumn is the
season of fires, and a conflagration may break
out at any hour. Our able-bodied citizens
who enjoy the comforts of home, should in
terest themselves in behalf of the companies
organized for the protection of property.—
Let the places of our brave soldiers be sup
plied, and the ranks filled at once. Then,
when needed, our engines, hose. - etc., can be
brought into action immediately, . and pro
perty may be saved from destruction.
I=l
SPIES A CRESTED. —On Saturday morning
last, three suspicions characters entered the
Cumberland Valley cars at Oakville, and paid
their fare to Harrisburg. A soldier who was
on the train immediately "spotted" them, and
placed them under arrest. When near New
ville, as they were being transferred from one
car to another, one of the party jumped from
the train, which was running at fall speed.
The other two, believing that their companion
had been killed, confessed that they were
rebel spies, and belonged to Gilmore's com
mand. They were taken to Carlisle, handed
over to the military authorities, and placed
in confinement, to await trial. In the mean
time, several citizens of Newville went in
pursuit of the Johnny who had jumped from
the train. He was found in a field adjacent
to the 'jumping off place," and when ap
proached he drew a revolver, and threatened
to shoot any person who would advance. Fi
nally the pursuers closed in upon him, and
he was captured. He was severely injured
by his fall from the train. This rebel was
also taken to Carlisle, and on the route ac
knowledged that he, too,: was a spy. The au
thorities have him in charge, and the whole
party will be tried together. They now deny
that they were spies, or that they made any
confession to those who arrested them, but
claim that they are deserters. The latter story
is improbable, as they passed by the military
posts at Martinsburg, Hagerstown and Chem
bersburg, without attempting to give them
selves up. •
Had these spies not been captured, they
would have visited Harrisburg, and might have
accomplished a great amount of evil. There
is no doubt, however, that other parties have
visited our city frequently, and there may be
such here now. The Chambersbnrg papers
state that Franklin county is infested with
spies, and they are scattered over the State.
Effective measures should be adopted to pre
ventd rebels from running at large in
our d ni b ir e Although all the information
they might obtain here would not benefit the
bogus confederacy, which is on its last legs,
let a concentration of fiends in our city might
revolt in the destruction of property which
could not replaced in many years. Every
Mau arriving by the Cumberland Valley route,
usable ie, give a good account of himself,
itnlld Pe PreintAKl frout running at large.
Anniversaries In thimmelstoliii.
The citizens of Hammelstown have been en
joying a sort of religious festival during the pre
sent week. The anniversaries of the Dauphin
County Sunday School Teachers' Association,
and i of the Dauphin County Bible Society, at
tracted a large crowd of visitors, who were
hospitably entertained by the citizens of all
religious denominations. Both these associa
tions have determined to publish their pro
ceedings in pamphlet form, for distribution
among their members, and the numerous
friends of the causes they represent. But as
many of your readers would like to know, at
once, something of what was done at these
meetings, the secretaries have agreed to fur
nishyou with an abstract of the proceedings.
The anniversary of the Dauphin County
Bible Society was held on Tuesday afternoon
and evening. Delegates were present from
fifteen auxiliary societies, viz: Berrysburg,
Halifax, Powel's Valley, Dauphin, Coxestown,
Harrisburg, Linglestown, Highspire, Hum
melstown, Middletown, Lower Swatara, Con
ewago, Londonderry, Union Deposit and
East Hanover.
The officers elected were :
President—Hoar. A. 0. BIESTEB.
Vice Presidents—D. W. Gross, Rev. J. Hai&
leigh, Rev. A. D. Moore, Henry Shammo,
Sol. L. Swartz, Benj. S. Kauffman, Jno. S.
Foltz, H. L. Tegtmeier, Rev. C. A. Fetzer,
David Longenecker, Curtis Biely, Philip
Hoffman, Henry L. Hummel, J. P. Ruther
ford, B. J. Wiestling and George M. Bruba
ker.
Secretary—Cliarles A. Hay.
Treasurer—A. A. Fahnestoek
Executive Committee—A. K. Fahnestock,
T. H. Robinson, John A. Weir, D. A. L.
Laverty, C. J. Ehrehart, Charles A. Hay,
Jacob Houser, James Colder, and D. W.
Gross.
The Executive Committee reported that in
accordance with the instructions of the socie
ty at its hist anniversary, they had appointed
committees of ministers and laymen to visit the
various townships in the county, to meet
with and stimulate into increased activity the
existing auxiliaries, and to establish others
at points where they seemed to be needed.
The reports of some of these committees
were highly interesting and encouraging ;
and their presentation, together with the dis
cussions suggested by them, constituted an
attractive and profitable part of the exercises
of the anniversary. Some of the committees
had not properly appreciated the nature of
the work assigned them, and and were there
fore re-appointed and more fully instructed,
so that by the time ofour next meeting we may
expect to have our county as thoroughly or
ganized as possible for the prosecution of
this good work. The Society is now com
posed of twenty-three auxiliaries, five of which
were established' within the last month, viz :
Conewago, Londonderry, Lower Swatara,
Powel's Valley, and East Hanover Union.
To the great delight of all present, the re
ports of these auxiliaries soon revealed the
tact that we never heretofore have been en
abled to accomplish so much in this good
cause as during the past year. Most of these
societies had more than doubled their contribu
tions The oldest of them, the Harrisburg
Bible Society, which during
the past year cel
ebrated its semi-centennial jubilee, and made
an extra effort to present a thank offering me
morial to the Lord, reported $l,OOO. Then
follows Millersburg, with $175, in which we
recognize the hand of our noble brother,
Geo. a. Brubaker, who .does not grow weary
in well-doing; Middletown, $B9 50; Coxestown,
$64 44; Ef.akfax, $55; Hummelstown, $5O; East
Hanover,s37- Powel's Valley, $3O 50; Dau
phin. $0; Highspire, $2l 55; - Berrysburg,
4;20 05; Union Deposit, $2O; Londonderry,
$16,95; Lower Swatara, $ll 75; Conewago,
$1015; Linglestown, $lO.
These are the direct contributions of these
auxiliaries to the County Society, and do not
include the amounts collected by those socie
ties and expended for Bibles and Testaments
for distribution in their immediate neighbor
hoods. A full account of these operations
will be given in the minutes as printed in
pamphlet form.
The Treasurer of the County Society re
ported upwards of $2,200 on hand, of which
sum it was resolved that $2,000 should be at
once forwarded .to the Pennsylvania Bible
Society; a contribution which will be timely
and truly welcome, inasmuch as the parent
society has been called upon to distribute the
scriptures to our bfave soldiers, and to the
rebel prisoners in our hands. "There is that
scattereth and yet increaseth."
A committee was appointed to suggest
themes for the discussion at the evening meet
ing, who reported the following:
L The Bible, the light of the Christian
home.
2. The Bible, the safeguard of youth.
3. The Bible, the hope of the oppressed
4. The Bible, the pillar of free government
and free institutions.
These subjects were accordingly taken up
and discussed at length by the President,
Hon. A. 0. Mester, and Bev. Messrs. John
son, Laverty, Keller, Hay, Huber, Lehr,
Moore, Ehrehart, Barnhill, Long, Smith and
Emery, and Mr. Barton, one of the Secreta
ries of the American Sunday School Union.
These debates were listened to with eager
interest on the part of the numerous audience,
and the meeting was entertained with fine
spirit until a late hour in the evening.
The anniversary, upon the whole, was truly
delightful and profitable, and it was not easy
to decide who were the most gratified, the, en
tertainers or the entertained. It will ;be a
season long remembered by both. May these
annual re-unions continue to increase in in
terest and the society's efficiency keep pace
therewith ! CHARLES A. HAY,

MiNwasort.—The curtain that shuts oat an
incident which occurred twenty-five years
since, in our old Court House, at Harrisburg,
was lifted this morning, in our memory, by
observing our old townsman, Alexander Ram
sey, Esq., who is making a flying visit to oar
city. The event to which we refer was his
nomination for Congress by the workingmen
belonging to the old Whig party, (notwith
standing a protest, written on Sunday, by a
prominent legal gentleman, a member of the
convention.) The Senator's consistent political
course and untiring zeal in advocating the
workingmen's interest, will go far in account

HARRISBURG, Feb. Bth, 1864.
C.A. Rumvear-Dear Sir: I have used Brown's
Bronchial Troches, Wistaz's Lozenges, and
other preparations for hoarseness and throat
troubles, and, in comparisen with them all,
can cheerfully commend your own as a most
admirable specific for public speakers and
singers, in cases of hoarseness, coughs and
colds. I have found them serving in time of
need, most effectually.
Yours truly, T. H. ROBINSON,
Pastor of N. S. Presbyterian Church.
re - I agree with Mr. Robinson as to the
value of Bannvart's Troches.
W. C. CATTELL,
Late Pastor of 0. S. Presbyterian Church.
TrAmmatußG, Jan., 1861.
To C. A. Berisveur—Dear Sir: In the habit
of speaking very frequently, and in places
where the vocal organs are very much taxed,
I have found the need of some gentle expec
torant, and that want has been supplied in
your 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 the
effectiveness of the delivery of public addres
ses. Yours, &c.,
JNO. WALKER JACKSON,
Pastor of the Locust St. Methodist Church.
To C. A. Berovsar—Dear Sir : Having used
your Troches, I am free to say they are the
best.l have ever tried, and take great pleasure
in recommending them to all persons afflicted
with sore throat or huskiness of voice, arising
from public speaking or singes

TOWN LOTS FOl 5A.T....V.
THE PHILADELPHIA AND ERIE LAND
COMPANY, chartered by an, act of die Legislature
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.
REEDY° has been selected as the site for the exten
sive shops for building and repairing the rolling stock of
the Philadelphia and Avie 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
Rpnnd 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 arrangementsd'or 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 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 REEDY° 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 Lock Haven and Warren, a dis
tance of 158 miles. It is near the eentre of toe railroad,
47 miles west of Renovo; 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 s 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, the seat of Justice of Potter county.
It is also connected with Smethport, the seat of Justice of
McKean county. Emporium is the County Seat of Cam
eron county; it has a handsome Court House, and the
Land Company have just completed a large and commo
diens Hotel, which will immediately be opened to the
public. The Railroad Company are about to erect a hand
some and permanent Passsenger Station at a central point
near the Hotel and Court House. The place is healthy,
and excellent water is abundant. It is inthe midst of
one of the finest White Pine regions in Pennsylvania.
As a manufacturing town it has great advantages; coal,
lumber, stone, bark for tanneries are abundant, and lie
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 Philadelphia and Erie railroad
must eoon make it a place of great importance as a distri
buting point for goods of all kinds, and it offers great
advantages for persons or moderate capital who desire
to identify themselves with the early history of a thriv
ing town.
Lithographic Maps of both towns are now ready, and
Mr. GIDEON J. BALL, General Superintendent, will
furnish all necessary information on the premises, or by
letter.
He may be addressed to the care of B. P. RU TER,
Secretary and Treasurer, Philadelphia and Erie Land Com
pany, No. 2135% Walnut street Philadelphia, or at Renovo,
Clinton county, Pennsylvania.
