IMIE
CHRISTMAA GOODS.—Messrs. Kunkel and
Bro. have opened an immense variety of holi
day goods, at their drug and variety store, on
Market street. The stock embraces thou
sands of articles, and persons wanting suita
ble presents for the approaching gift season
would do well to call at Kunkel & Bro's.
THE BUEHLER HOIJSE . —Attention is directed
to the card of this popular house. Mr. Bolton,
the proprietor, is determined, to render the
Buehler House one of the first-class hotels in
the city, and all who desire a home during
their sojourn in the city, will find it a most
admirable stopping place.
Irt Toww.—Our old friend, Richard Wildey,
formerly the Representative of the 12th Legis
lative District, Philadelphia, was in town this
morning, looking as pleasant and as hand
some as ever. But all this is accounted for
by his Republicanism—Richard being one of
the most ardent and unwavering Republicans
in the country.
MannLE ON THE Wino.—The folloiviug we
find in one of our Illinois exchanges. No
doubt many of our citizens will rejoice to
learn that Marble is yet alive :
Marble, the proprietor of a theatre which
has been performing in Dubuque, for the last
few weeks, left on the sly on the 24th ult.,
with the whole troupe, leaving his bill unpaid.
PRESIDENT PETROLEUM COMPANY. —J. W. Si

may wish to obtain information or invest.
Those who desire to unite in a company
about being formed by citizens of this place
and vicinity, can also obtain the necessary in
formation by calling on Mr. Simonton.
DAMON AND PYTHIAS. —This is a play that
should be witnessed by every patriot. In it
are enacted scenes not unlike those which
have transpired in our country since the
southern traitors conspired to destroy the
good old Union. In the play, traitors enter
into a conspiracy to overthrow a glorious re
public, but are ultimately defeated. This
great piece will be performed at Brant's Hall
this evening. Mr. J. B. Roberts will appear
as paasos , and Mr. Meeker as Prxrunts.---sup
potted by the whole star company. The en
tertainment will conclude with the protean
burletta, entitled In and Out of Place, in which
Miss Fanny Denham will appear in five chatac
tens, with songs, &c. The Presidential elect
ors who are in the city, will find the Theatre
an excellent place to pass the evening plea
santly.
ANOTHER FATAL SHOOTING CASE .--A Sol
dier Killed al /he Invalid Barracks.—We are
called upon to chronicle another fatal acci
dent resulting from the use of fire-arms. The
veterans' at the barracks ,on Second street
have, exchanged their old guns for Enfield
rifles, and yesterday the pieces received were
thoroughly cleaned. One of the men placed
a cap on the tube for the purpose of blowing
the dust out of - his gun, which happened to
be loaded. The contents were discharged, the
bullet passing through a bunk, entered the
thigh of Sergeant Fay, (who was near by,)
and passing upward through his body, came
out at his neck. Death ensued last night, and
Sergeant Fay is added to the long list of those
who have been killed "accidentally." The
fact that the gun was loaded is evidence of
grows carelessness on the part of the ordnance
depatment, where every piece should be kept
in gooLl order and ready for use. Had the
arms bey tt properly attended to, their con
tents woURI have been extracted, and Ser
geant Fay would not now be numbered with
the dead.

Sergeant Vtiy belonged to Co. A, 16th regi
ment, Invalid 'Corps. His home was in New
York State.
---~~•--
A AbENNONITE WEDDING took place at Lail?
caster, .on Sunday last. To those of the
audience who were never present at a wedding
of members of this denomination, the affair
was novel and interesting. The sermon was
appropriate s to the occasion. The preacher read
from the 3d to the 10th verses of the 19th chap
ter of Matthew, and from: the 22d verse to the
end of the sth chapter of Ephesians, basing his
remarks on these passages of scripture. The
whole discourse was devoted to the duties of
the candidates for matrimony to each other,
and their spiritual relations to "Christ, the
head of the Church." At the conclusion of
the regular exercises, the marriage rite was
performed in front of the pulpit. The bride
groom was asked whether he believed this
sister of his faith was allotted by Christ to be
his wife, and whether he was free form all
other women persons. Affirmative answers
being given, similar questions were put to the
bride and answered. The usual questions
were then put and answered, when the twain
were pronounced man and wife.. The manner
of bringing about marriages betweet the mem
bers of this denomination differs from that of
other Christians. What is called "courting"
is done by their preachers, the candidates for
matrimonial honors not being allowed to visit
the object of their affections. Wh en a broth
er wishes to take to himself one of the sisters
as a wife, the fact is communicated to the
pmeher, who makes known 'to the sister the
feelings of this brother, and if no objections
be made on her part, the bans are published
in church and the wedding takes place in due
tine.

Friday Evening, Dec. 2, 1804.
EDITOR TELEGRAPH—I am pleased to find
in to-day's TELEGRAPH a denial of the charges
made by the minor, Martin, of Capt. Fenn's
company, in regard to the manner in which
the elections were held in the 201st, in No
vember last, at Manassas Junction. As one
of the judges of company I, it may not be
amiss to state that all persons voting on age,
or who did not produce a tax receipt for the
current year, were sworn,, or ailirnaed, regard.
less of party. Martin's article (or; rather, the
communication of which he assumed the re
sponsibility by lending his signature) was as
jibnoxious to every honorable politician of
'Bither party as it was unblushingly false and
uncalled for. Capt. Fenn's exposition of the
case is correct, and we would rather pity than
censure Martin for the part he has taken in
this lying affair, for he was made the dupe of
a pair of individuals who had neither the
courage nor the manhood to paternize the
falsehood they invented. Capt. Fenn's time
ly expose of the vile slanders prevents me
from contradicting this and similar copper
head inventions, traducing the victorious
Union wrty.
We received, per morning's mail, the re
mainder of the photographs representing
(truthfully) our Gainesville shebangs. The
pictures are correct, life-like and satisfactory,
in every respect. The fact of reprodncirtg a
hurried pencil-sketch, in the highest style of
the photographic art, places the firm of Bur
nite & Weldon in the front rank of the army
of American artists: May their efforts to re
flect nature on paper always prove as success
ful as in the'present instance, and, abundant
ly remunerate them for genius displayed in
this beautiful art.
Fred. Douglass, the celebrated colored lec
turer, held forth in Liberty Hall, Cameron
street, last evening. This was his second or
third lecture here; and the vast assemblage
was dismissed with shouts of 'applause. This,
too, in Alexandria, where slave-pens and auc
tion-blocks for the .disposal of negro slaves
are yet to be seen. "Whither are we drift
ing ?" inquired the copperhead journals be
fore the result of the Presidential election
was known. Whither ? To freedom and
greatness—the signs of the times prove it, be
yond the shadow of a doubt.
Last evening Sergeant Saul, of company B,
who has charge of the city patrol, made a de
scent upon a house of ill-fame, in Railroad
street. They captured three white and one
colored woman, and two men, and carried
them—the females—to the Provost Marshal's
office, and the men to the guard-house. This
morning the party had a hearing before Cap
tain Gwin, of the Court Martial Board.
What disposition was made of this depraved
party I could not learn up to the hour of
closing my letter.
Several steamers went down the river, at
12 at., filled with reinforcements for Grant,
it was alleged. They were a portion of the
6th Army Corps, and embarked at Washing
ton this forenoon. They were reported to be
Col. Gallope's regiment.
Express boxes from our friends at the North
are coming into camp, daily, and the men
" pitch into the good things to some pur
pose. The boys insist, that if
" There is no plriee like home,"
there is also nothing to compare with the deli
cacies and "fixings" that come from there.
In looking over my loose papers and notes
by-the-way, I found the following, "picked up"
a day or two before we left Manassas.
About one-fourth of a mile from camp'(l4la
nassas Junction) may be seen a square block
of marble, lying fiat on the ground, and on
which is the following inscription
This marble marks the spot where fell
George F. Stoval, of the Rome Light Guards,
Bth Regiment Georgia Volunteers, in the battle
of July- 21st, 1861. Born at Augusta, Georgia,
April 7th, 1835, his life he devoted to his God,
and sacrificed it in his country's defence. His
last words were, am going to Heaven "
We sincerely hope the words uttered by the
dying Georgian were realized in the consum
mation of his entrance into the realms of
bliss. Yet the delusion of sacrificing life and
limb, and honor and manhood, in the vain
effort to establish a Southern Confederacy,
was, nevertheless, a part of that creed, doc
trine and religion, from which many of his
people and kindred are fast dissenting, at this
stage of affairs in the South. The block of
marble referred to was pretty well "chipped,"
and broken by acts of vandalism, from visi
tors, who carried off the pieces for mementoes,
no doubt. •
Permit me to return my sincere thanks to
Mr. George L. Walters, of the News Depot,
Market street, for a supply of reading matter,
Prank Leslie's Magazine and Yankee Notions
were quite acceptable. So, also, the splendid
work entitled " History of Little'Mac.' The
latter work produced fits of laughter from
those who perused it. Thank you, friend
Walters.
There is a smart sprinkling of rain at this
writing—cold and disagreeable. Can't think
of running down town after news this even

BURNING SPRING OIL COMP,INP.—We would
invite attention to the prospectus of this com
pany, appearing in our advertising columns
for the first time to-day. The immense Value
of the Burning Spring Oil District M. which
the lands of this company are located, and the
large extent of boreable territory which it
controls, seem to warrant us in recommend
ing it to those seeking investment of the char
acter which it offers. We are well aware that
many fictitious organizations are flooding the
country with worthless stock, but from what
we have been able to learn of the resources
and objects of this company and the charac
ter of the men who control its operations, we
feel assured that we are not recommending a
'speculative concern," but a sound, substantial
oil company, which, if managed as we have
reason to believe it will be, cannot fail to pay
large dividends to its stockholders at a very
early day. See advertisement in another
column.

HARRISBURG, Feb. Bth, 1864.
C. A. Barmy Asfr—Dear Sir: I have used Brown's
Bronchial Troches, Wistar's Lozenges, and
other preparations for hoarseness and throat
troubles, and, in comparison with them all,
can cheerftilly commend your own as a most
admirable specific for public speakers and
singers, in cases of hoarseuees, coughs and
colds. I have found them serving in time of
need, most effectually.
Yours truly, T.R. ROBINSON,
Pastor of N. S. Presbyterian Church.
Or" I agree with Mr. Robinson as to the
value of Bannvart's Troches.
W. C. CATTELL,
Late Pastor of 0. S. Presbyterian Church.
Hsarnantran, Jan., 1864
To C. A. BA.teivaar--Dear' sir: In the habit
of speaking very frequently, and in places
where the vocal organs are very much taxed,
I ave 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 0. A- BANNVART—Dear Sir : Having used
your Troches, I am free to say they are the
best I 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 singing.
Yours, &c., G. G. RAKESTRAW,
Pastor of Ridge Avenue Methodist Church.

To C A. BANNVAET—Dear Sir: I have found

of the throat. ' They impart clearness to the
