ItIONDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 19. 1864.
TOWN AND COUN TRY
RECEIVED this afternoon at Keller's, a fine
assortment of French Confections.
1=1:11
POLICE AFFAIRS are dull. But two drunks
were before the Mayor yesterday, and none
this morning.
Con. SMALL, the celebrated Female Charac-
ter Dancer, at the National Hall, Wednesday
evening, December 21st.
Foe THE HOLlDAYS. —Attention is invited to
the advertisement of C. A. Boas, who has a
very extensive-assortment of clocks, watches
and jewelry, suite* for holiday presents.
AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.-Mr. J, W . Jen
nings, the popular actor, who performed here
with Rouse's troupe, last season, is now filling
an engagement at Orover's theatre, in Wash
ington.
=MOM
CELERY. —Mr. William E. Hargest sends us
a splendid bunch of celery, the best of the
season. All lovers of the article will find a
general supply of the same kind at his stall in
the lower market house.
==MI
CHRIST/NUS PaEsENTs.—M. H. Lee, Market
street, has just received a large stock of Gold
and Silver headed canes suitable for Christ
mas Presents. Also, a fine assortment of
Watches and Jewelry. Call and see them.
DIED IN Parson—Joseph M. Marsh, an old
soldier, died in prison yesterday where he had
been sent for drunkenness. It seems that he
formerly lived in Watsontown, Northumber
land county, where he said some of his friends
still reside.
THE greatest attraction in our city is caused
by the exhibition of a large and, varied assort
ment of fancy goods, adapted for Christmas
and New Year gifts, by Kunkel & Bro., 118,
Market street. We would advise all who de
sire anything in their line to give them a call
before purchasing elsewhere.
Joruzsces Atlas will be presented to the
citizens of Harrisburg by the agent, J. H. Lei
per, who will give a fair representation of the
work to those who will spend a few minutes
and be entertained by such an intellectual
feast. Mr. Leiper comes to us highly recom
mended as a true gentleman.
ARREST OF A SIISEICIOUS CHARACTER.-A sus
picious character who was lounging about the
depot for several days, has been arrested and
placed in prison. He gave the name of
Charles Parker. Parties who visited the jail
pronounce Parker to be a deserter from Car
lisle. He will probably be sent there by the
authorities.
OIL Is Siga.—The newspapers are full of
oil; and capitalists are investing in oil.—
wherover you go, oil, oil, OIL, is the topic of
conversation. We fear that many who have
"oil on the brain" will invest capital that will
never return. While ten make fortunes by
such investments, a hundred cast their money
to the wind, as it were, by the same process.
Conrisnrz LIST or Rums Gsoonarss.--
§hisler & Frazer have printed for general cir
culation, a neat pamphlet, containing a com
plete list of their stock of goods, which is
calculated to be very useful to families. This
pamphlet also contains several valuable re
cipes for preserving fruits, which can be had
gratuitously by calling at the store of the
firm, Market street, opposite the Court House.
Ray. Wu. H. H. SNYDER, who was recently
elected pastor of the First German Reformed
Church, in this city, has arrived, and yester
day he preached his introductory sermon, to
a very large congregation. Mr. Snyder is a
young minister, possessing great ability as a
writer, and is a pleasant speaker. Hii3 sermon
of yesterday is highly spoken of by those who
heard it.
DESEETIMS CAPTIIBED.-Six more deserters
have been captured by Captain Ensminger's
Company of the 201st regiment, and were
taken to the Provost Marshal's headquarters,
at Chambersburg. The men were captured
in the vicinity of Bloody run, Bedford coun
ty. Captain Ensminger's men are doing a
good work in the benighted region in which
the company is stationed. Numerous cap
- tuxes have been made, and the deserters in
all cases forwarded to headqharters without a
single escape being eiXeeted.
MAERIAGE IN THE OLDEN MMES. —An old
Connecticut paper contains the following an
nouncement:
•'Married--In the public highway at Green
Holland, in Voluntown, Ct., on Sunday, the
sth inst., about 1 o'clock P. 111., the rain pour
ing in torrents from the clouds, with high
winds from the southeast, by Elder Charles
Weaing,r, while on the way to attend the funeral
of Mrs. Amy R. Gallup, wife of Benjamin Gal
hip, 2d, Esq., of Voluntown, who died Novem
ber 3, aged 26 years, Mr. John Tanner of the
former place, to Xiss Mary Carter of Hopkin
ton, county of Washington and State of Rhode
Island."
THE " Swoan SWAISOWER " ARRESTED—Be
is Ordered to Leave the City within Twelve
Hours.—Several months ago a one-horse
show was opened on Third street,' opposite
the Tntaroaarn office, and a "happy family,"
composed of a large number of mice and a
noon, were exhibited. Shortly afterward a
sword-swallower" and other features were
added to the " attractions." An old wind
broken organ annoyed the citizens of the vi
cinity, by , its horrible screeching in murder
ing " Old llundred " and other tunes that it
attempted to play. The very limited patron
age bestowed upon the establishment were
certainly inadequate to pay the expenses of
rent and oil, to say nothing of a dividend
among the "stars." A case has at last been
brought to light which is sufficient to con
vince the public that other than lawful mea
sures have been resorted to to "raise the wind"
necessary to keep the concern in motion.
On Saturday evening E. W. Webb, the
"sword-swallower," was taken into custody on
a charge of arresting George Jenkins and an
otheryoung man, and locking them in a
room, for the alleged purpose of placing them
in the army as substitutes. Webb was taken
before the Mayor, and after a hearing was.
committed to prison until Sunday morning,
when he again appeared before His Honor,
who, after investigating the case, ordered the
defendant to leave the city within twelve
hours. The Mayor strongly hinted that the
establishment was not run for the purpose of
doing any good to the public, and our citizens
would rejoice to learn that thp whole concern,
"happy family" and all, including those in
charge of it, had determined to leave town.
The young men arrested by Webb are Vir
ginians, and somewhat ignorant, and had not
the chief of police learned of their arrest and
confinement, and rescued them, they would
doubtless have been placed in the service, and
and swindled out of their bounty.
BRADY; the Market street baker, advertises
an arrival of Whitman's celebrated confeetiOn
ery, from Philadelphia. Call at Brady's,
and examine the assortment. Mr. B. is also
prepared to furnish a splendid assortment of
cakes suitable tor the holidays. We have
been permitted to test the quality of a fine
cake, and would advise all who desire a good
article to give Brady's a trial.
NORTHERN CENTRAL RAILROAD.—We learn
that the work of laying the second track on
the line of this road is progressing rapidly,
notwithstanding the fact that winter is at
hand. A large number of men are . engaged
upon various sections of the road, and• at a
day not very distant the Northern Central
line will be supplied with a double track from
Baltimore to Sunbury. When this is com
pleted the traveling public will be relieved of
the most of the vexatious delays which are
unavoidable upon a single track line. The
constantly increasing business of the North
ern Central road rendered an additional track
necessary.
BUSINESS ITEMS.
A.trarron.—Mr. Barr will sell, on Wednesday
morning at market, (fair weather,) a large lot
of glass jars, candies, tin, wood and China
toys, fancy work-boxes, segars and tobacco,
apples, 25 bushels of chestnuts. peanuts, and
shellbarks, together with a variety of other
Christmas articles, from a firm in the city
closing out. Sale to commence at 7 o'clock.
decl9-2t
CHRISTMAS.—The celebration of Christmas
day, as one of merriment, feasting and pre
sents, runs far back into the misty periods of
Christian antiquity. The modes of enjoying
the festi,val have been various, not only in dif
ferent nations, but in different parts of . the
same country. In our city of Harrisburg,
Christmas is the peculiar holiday of the whole
year. In country villages, like New York, they
make a great ado on New Year's day; but
with us it is but the feeble fag-end of the fes
tival which opens with Christmas. The ap
proach of the season is heralded by seductive
advertisments of all sorts of things which en
terprise asserts are suitable for presents. The
stores are choked with customers, and as the
eve of the haPpy day approaches, parcels—
portentous of gifts—are in almost every pe
clestrian's hands; and the incessant peal of
front door bells, heralding the delivery of
them, takes the lace of
"The chimes which in olden times
Rang out npon•Christmas Eve."
In this connection lam authorized, by C.
L. Bowman, to say that for the purpose of in
creasing his business, and offering an addi
tional inducement to those disposed to obtain
Christmas presents at low prices, he will sell,
during this week, furs, cloth circulars, coats
and Chesterfield's for lathes, balmoral skirts,
brooha and plaid wool shawls, merino scarfs,
and fancy dress goods, at a very small profit.

Market streets. Yours, &c., .
HABBISBURG, Dec. 5, 1864.
I consider " Johnson's New Illustrated
Family Atlas" decidedly superior to any . other
work of the kind with which I am acquainted.
The maps are sufficiently large for conveni
ence, and they are 77b9St admirably executed; and
the work contains a greater amount of valu
able information than Pave ever before seen
compressed into so small a compass. An
other feature of the Atlas is, that it is so ar
ranged that other maps can be fastened into
the volume wherever desired. If in, the pro
gress of the war, or in consequence df the for
mation of-a new Territory or State, new maps
become necessary, they can be put into the
work just where they are required. The pub
lishers give to each subscriber a document in
which they obligate themselves to furnish all
such maps as may be published, at the cost
of only the postage.
No private or public library can be consid
ered complete without a copy of the work.

of Mr. Coburn.

HADMISIMIG, Dee. 17, 1864
Having purchased Johnson's Family Atlas
in 1860, I lately availed myself of the privi
lege extended by the new house of Johnson &
Ward, of obtaining such new maps as they
have issued since 1860, to the number of four
teen, and received them in good order, and
shall have them entered in their proper
places. T. H. ROBINSON.
P. S.—They also furnish over one hundred
pages of additional printed matter, including
the record of the war down to January 1864.
T. H. R.
A GENTLEMAN from a neighboring town,
seeing a lady in the street inn very fine dress,
as he thought, begged, her to be pleased to
tell him where she purchased it. The lady, a
little surprised at the question, called him an
impudent fellow.
"Nay, I hope no offence, madam," cried he;
"I am a man, just going out of town, and my
vice generally expects I should bring her
something, and as it is near Christmas, I
thought a fine dress like that, would not fail
to please a gude house wife, which occasioned
my. inquiry."
"Sir, it was purchased at A. F. Brandt's
new cheap store on the southeast oorner of
Walnut and Second streets," where the gen
tleman called after relating his story,[and had
his wishes amply gratified. deel7-2t
