TUAT excellent journal, the M'Eean Miner,
plpealit follows of our paper;
We'get our latest news now from the Har
i:liking DAILY TSLEGBAPH. It always con
tains the important news, and is received
along the line of the P. and E. R R. 24 hours
ahead of the Philadelphia and. New York dai
lies. It is really one of the best and most re
liable daily papers published in the interior of
the State, and deserves the liberal patri.mage
which we understand it receives.
017TEIGEOLS—On Saturday night s some
miscreant who does not possess the least re
gard for God or man, and who has lost the
last vestige of decency, disfigured the now
and beautiful fence that surrounds the Free
Baptist Church, by tearing down a number of
the palings, and breaking some Of them. The
reprobate, who went to the trouble of turning
iron the pavement and walking through the
'tallow, to accomplish his purpose, deserves
,waging, and the scaffold will lose one of its
proper subjects if he escapes punishment.—
Should the officers of the eliurdi obtain any
clue to the individual, we have no doubt that
he will serve a term at "bard labor" within
c'e walls of a public hotel.
c o „ Nar SALOOTTNGof . Doo.—Some of oar

hearing was had before one of otif Aldermen,
which resulted in a verdict in favor of the
plaintiff, compelling the farmer to pay $9O,
the value of the dog. to " the owner, besides
the costs, which amounted to over $l9. • This

caused numerous disputes.

From the 201st Regiment.
CAI? SLOUGH,
WEST ALEXANDRIA, VA.
Thursday Aiternoon, Dee. 8, 1864.
EDITOR. TELEGRAPH—Dear Sin—lßAs agree
ably surprised to receive an "official docu
ment "trom the Harrisbnrg.Post Master, thiA
morning. Thanks, many thanks for the sub
stantial favor, so opportune and acceptable at
this time. •
We have a sudden change of weather since
yesterday evening. From a steady, drizzling,
warm rain, the clerk has treated us to a blast
from Norway or Spitzbergen—with the sun
doing his best (in vain) to make us comfort
able. It is decidedly cold, but by the hardy,
robust and quick-tempered Northerns, this is
only termed healthy, bracing weather. The
Disleites say "cold, disagreeable, unpleasant,"
and open their eyes with astonishment when
you tell them "the weather is fine to-day !"
The force of habit, however, is great—the
indolent, spiritless and labor-despising portion
of Dixie enjoy themselves with the thermome
ter high up in the nineties, and shrug their
shoulders at the sight of a trifling hair-frost
or a slight sprinkling of snow.
As beforeintimated, quite a number of our
warm-hearted Northern ladies have made their
appearance in camp to visit their husbands.
Now, it happens, that.a respectable boarding
house cannot; at all times, be found near the'
camp. Consequently our Mon friends are
obliged to patronize old C—s' Hotel, (quite
a respectable place, by the way,) a caravansa
de which has the - reputation of being Secesh,
in the fullest sense of the word. Old C---,
the proprietor, 'undertook to exhibit some of
his wit at the expense of a Northern lady and
her pretty, interesting child. Said he :
"Madame, would you . take $5OO for your
pretty little girl'?"
"By no means, sir. I would not part with
my child for twice file amount."
I should hate to offer you $lOOO. Why,
Madame, I would undertake to buy a cargo
of little ones for $5OO a piece."
"Sir," said the Northern mother, her face
flushing with indignation—"we do not traffic
in human souls, et the North! We under
stand life and its true objects better than that.
What is common and fashionable in Southern
society, is revolting and obnoxious to a free
Christian people !" Old C— "dried up" in
stanter, and has not since annoyed our noble
Northern lady visitor.
Down the valley of the Occoquan, some 15
or 20 miles from Alexandria, resided a Scotch
farmer, by the name of McClaire, (I think.)
Being an uncompromising Union man, Secesh,
in that locality, forced him to leave his farm,
consisting of 400 acres, stealing his stock and
destroying whatever they could. During the
whole of last winter, however, he temained at
home assisting some of the Michigan cavalry
in picket duty, close to his premises. When
the Michiganders left, however,itie was obliged
to leave also, and return to some of his friends
in Alexandria. It was not safe to remain
there, he says, for the guerrillas would have
winged him, on the first opportunity, while at
work, in the fields. .
"It makes nee difference," quoth he. "The
time will surely come when the dim/8 will be
chased out of that, and the followers of auld
Jaff will be obliged to flee the coonntry ! It
canna last forever." "Slavery," he said, "is
the curse of curses! A thrifty, respectable
white man has nae business-where slavery is
in vogue. The planter extorts from the slave
all he can—uses and works him to death--
with scarcely a dollar of expense. He en
riches himself, inflates his pocket-book, turns
up his aristocratic nose, and considers him
self a "lord of creation." While, on the other
hand, he despises the honest, humble me
chanic, and shuns the "white trash" as he
would a felon. These are not the worst fea
tures of the institution. I could relate cir
cumstances to you, sir, too revolting for the
ear—too damnable in their nature to publish
to the world. Slavery is an unmitigated evil.
What we want to clear the evil away is more
Northern influence. We want farmers from
the North to tear up worn-out fields and to
plant them with the hands of free labor. We
want mechanics, workingmen, free schools
and all else pprt*ning to civilization. These
we must have, and will have, eventually, sir,
to make us a prosperous and happy people,
once more."
The cannie old Scotolunan is sincere, and
apparently well known here in Alexandria.
His friends pronounce him a tip-top Union
man a martyr to the cause of freedom—and
as spunky as a mastiff. It would afford you
treat to be present some evening to witness
Professor Wm. A. Bush, of the drum corps,
and his ten assistants ''rattling the music out
of their drums, in front of QQL Awl's quar
ters, at reveille. Bush, Kreider and Felix, of
Harrisburg, Entick, of Middletown, Ehler, of
Goldsboro', and others, make the sticks rattle
on the parchment to some purpose, while our
old friend Draine, of Harrisburg, and Win.
Snyder, of Shippeneburg, handle themselves
on the shrill fife to some purpose. In fact,
both the Kegirnental Band and Drum Corps
have improved wOnderfully. They will sat
isfy their friends when we return to our
homes again, the Lord willing :
Ford's theatre, King street, is doing a heavy
business: For the past three nights they pro

Tm CRICKET is IfEarl. I—We have the plea
sure of announcing th.at Miss Fanny B. Pride,
the celebrated actress whose grand perform
ances were so greatly admired during a recent
engagement, has returned to our city, and will
this evening commence an engagement at
Rouse's Theatre. The mere announcement of
the fact is sufficient to draw a full house, as Miss
Price is the favorite of our citizens. This even
ing she will appear in the beautiful play enti
tled FANCHON, THE CRICKET. This piece is one
of the grandest ever produced here, and all who
witnessed it during Miss Price's former en
gagement will be sure to attend. There is a
great demand for secured seats, the sale of
which commenced at an early hour, and if we
are not mistaken, the hall will be crowded to
its utmost capacity. Faxcriox is one of the
most popular plays now performed. We no
tice that it is having an immense run in the
large cities. In this play Miss Price is said
to be unequalled by any actress on the stage.
Hanchett, the tragedian, has also arrived, and
will appear at the theatre during the week.

OUR IMPRESSIONS AND INTENTIONS.--11l our
generous moods we haye at times fancied.our
selves in possession of tha means and the
disposition to relieve, by wholesale, the wants
and distress growing out of the disproportion
in the remuneration for labor, as 'compared
with the cost of the necessary sustenance of
life; and we here say, while we could not
practically do more, we have always, through
the conception we have of business.generally,
(and our interest, as we understand it,) con
tributed in every way to make the interest of
those who patronize us mutual. Our daily
study is to obtain goods cheap, and dispose of
them at a lower price than our honest com
petitors, so as to convince the public that our
object is not to make large profits, but for the
purpose of increasing the amount of business
done; which enables us to sell goods at
smaller profits. Under the foregoing consid
erations, we ask the attention of buyers to a
L. Bowman's large stock of staple and fancy
dry goods, at the cheap store, No. 1, southeast
corner of Front and Market streets, Harris

Ilemosinnio, Feb. Bth, 1864.
C. A. BaiNvAirr-Dear Si: I have used Brown's
Bronchial Troches, Wistar'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.
I agree with Mr. Robinson as to the
value of Bannvart's Troches.
W. O. CATTELL,
Late PaStor of 0. S. Presbyterian Church.
HAnanmuno, Jan., 1864.
To C. A. BArmvarr—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
o
To C. A. Runtysam—Dear sir : Raving 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. RAXESTRAW,
Pastor of Ridge Avenue Methodist Church.
DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE,
ElAsiussurio,-Feb, 29, 1864.
To C A. Runivarr—Dear Sir: I have found
your Troches to be invaluable in relieving
hoarseness and in strengthening the muscles
of the throat. They impart clearness to the
voice, and are certainly of great benefit to all
public speakers. A. J. HERR.
