A MEMBER OF THE ALLESIAN FENCIDLES KILL
ED.—We learn that during an engagement on
Thursday last, a shell from the enemy entered
a bomb-proof of Capt. Detwiler's company, in
Fort Sedgwick (Front of Petersburg,) and ex
ploded, killing Mr. Wm, Chapman. Deceased
was from New Cumberland. No others were
injured.
Ix Cambria, Sommet, and the adjoining
counties of Pennsylvania, a good
,quality of
tar is manufactured from the knots of the pitch
pine. The manufacture of this substitute 4or
North Carolina tar is carried on extenaiirely
and has already, it is stated, considerably de
preciated the price of the latter article. The
tar thus produced, answers • nearly all the re
quisites as a substitute fdr the Original article.
THEATRE!—The citizens of Harrisburg will
be gratified to learn that Mr. Sam Hemple
has been engaged for six nights more, and
will appear at the Theatre every evening this
week. To-night will be presented, for the
first time in this city, the thrilling two-act
drama of THE MOR.DER AT THE ROADSIDE INN,
with the celebrated four room scene. There
is an excellent cast in this piece, all the mem
bers of the Star Combination Coinpany par
ticipating. The entertainment will conclude
with the burletta, of MR. AND MRS. 'PETER
Warn. A number of new plays will be pro+ ,
duced this week, and Mr. Hemple will sus
tain the leading characters, supported by
Rouse's whole company. •
Tax PRESIDENT PETROLEUM COMPANY%
There is one feature connected with the
above company that is well worthy of tie at
tention of those who are about to invest in
property of this kind. We allude to the im
mense extent of oil-boring territory owned by
the company, when compared with that owned
by other companies. A reference to the ad
vertiSement in our columns, will show that
this company owns eight thousand four hun
dred acres of laud, furnishing an oil-boring
territory of over ten and one-half miles in
extent—fronting on the Allegheny river, and
on Hemlock, Porcupine and Mcßea creeks.
The immense advantage of investing in a
company of this kind is at once apparent.
There is space for a vast number of wells.
Should all of them succeed, the value of the
investment could hardly be calculated, while
if hilt a moderate proportion of them . shoUld
do so, it would pay sufficiently to satisfy the
utmost desires of any reasonable man: • J. W.
Simonton, 'Esq., the agent of ;the company at
this place, states that this feature of the case
is—as we think deservedly—attracting icon
siderable attention.
ACCIDENT ON THE LEBANON VAI2 I I"EY RAIL
solD.—On Saturday night twit) -triene.4-a 'coal
and a freight—collided, somewhere in the
ricinity'of,Reading. We' are intormed, 4;4'
a numbei of cars were smashed, but no
person was killed. Three Harrisburgers were -
teriensly 'wounded, among whom were Albert
Cade:* and Jeremiah Burch. It is reportied
that all three. had limbs broken. We have
been unable to learn any further particulars
at the time of this writing.
Laras.--We have since learned that. the
accident was caused by the coal' train htf4ing
behind time, and as it was 'shifting to a siding
the freight and stock train e'' ."dashing
along at the rate of mile an
hour, and ran into its rear. , The . night was
very dark, and it is said no light was cIisPIPY O4
in the rear of the coal train. Wo : are bi
formed that Oadow was very seriously wound
ed, one of his limbs being broken at the
thigh, and his head bruised. Bora bad both
lags broken. A car belenging to 3.14,, Cottrell,
of Chestnut street, was_ aterneashed, as were
several belonging to other persons. A num.:
her of ears containing live stock were wrecked,:
and their contents ;badly damaged.'We are
inforMed that several were destroyed by fire,
but cannot vouch for the truth of the rumor.
It is exceedingly difficult to obtain a reliable
ccousittof a railroad accident, andliva are corn-
Polled to publish .the factrii as we hear them.
The leading" times of to-day gives the fol
lowing notice of . the accident, It says, that
tarty cars were destroyed :
On Saturday evening; while the freight train
on the Lebanon Valley. Branch 'was shifting
cars at Heidelberg Station, one mile above
Wernersville, the down freight, drawn by the
Vicksburg, ran into it, destroying 40,1cM,
wounding three men, one severely , and intro-.+
mg up a large number of cattle. We have
no Mar'd 19110, if any body;' was to blame.

we could not advocate a blind adherence to
fashion, we also deprecate a studied intention
Of oddity in dress. Beauty, we fancy, consists
in the selection of colors that harmonize with

C.A. BANNverm-Dear Sir: I have used Brown's

other preparations for hoarseness and throat
troubles, and, in comparison with them all,
can cheerfully commend your own as a most
admirable specific for public speakers and

of speaking very frequently, and in places
where the vocal organs are very much taxed,
I have found the need of some gentle expec
lorant, and that want has been supplied in
your excellent Troches.
I consider them very far superior 16 any

!speedily that huskiness'of the voice arising
,from its too frequent use, and impairing the
effectiveness of the delivery of public addres

Fire brick, meters, rosin, &c., have advanced more than
two hundred per cent. ' • :

after the above mentioned day. In addition to the above
enormous increase of materials and labor, the company
pays a tax of SD enters on every 1,000 feet of Gas menu.
