He was taken to Sunbury where - .the limb was amputated. THE BEDFORD Inquirer says; A Prospectus tiof the Harrisburg TELEGRAPIa is given in another column. The TELEGRAPH is an en terprising and wide awake paper, and usually contains news a day later than the city papers. It is getting a very large circulation in the in terior of the State. A HANDSOME PEESENT.—Tho clerks 0111- ageyed in the office of Adjutant Leidtke, pre- Sented that gentleman with a magnificent sil ver fruit basket, and four beautiful silver gob/efs, as a token of their regard for him. Adjutant Leidtke is a faithful officer, and a perfect gentleman, and the valuable presents were bestowed upon one worthy of them. I=l Dren ix Itsaur,Dom.—We regret to learn that Captain James E. Wenrick, Company E, Nineteenth Pennsylvania Cavalry, died at Columbia, South Carolina, on the 13th of October last. Deceased was from Philadel phia, but formerly resided in Harrisburg, where he has numerous relatives and friends. He was captured by the rebels and, sent to their prisons, to die, far from home and friends. =I Posy YOUR Boois.—As the end of the year :approaches, everybody who has any open ac ,counts, should be posting tip his books and getting ready for a general settlement. The man who attends to his duty regularly and thoroughly, at periods not more than a year apart, will do well in the world, let him en oage in what business he will, nine oases in ten-. You might as well attempt to fling a oat f ro m o T window so as not to fall upon her feet, as to bteak a man who keeps his accounts posted area holds to frequent settlements.— "Short settiements make long friends," and what is stronger argument even, in these sor did days, they make long purses too. Post your books, then, friend, draw off your bills, settle disputable matters with your neighbors, on the liberal spirit of men resolved not to go to law, and resolved to know where you are when another New Year comes in, so you may welcome it in peace and quietness. The 11. S. Assessors will call upon you to make re turns of your annual income, and you should have your books posted up. Tram) Warm IN MAyrion.-1 meeting of the citizens of the Third ward was held at the Franklin House, on Friday evening, Dec. 23, when, on motion, W. K. Yerbeke was called to the chair, and Messrs. Chayne and Ander son were appointed Secretaries. On motion of J. M. Wiestling, Esq., it was agreed that the officers of the meeting be instructed to call upon the Provost Marshal and ascertain the probable quota of the ward, and how many credits the ward is entitled to;. and that they be further authorized to call a meeting as soon as the information has been obtained. ,On motion of James Fitzgerald, it was agr eod that a committee of three be appointed t - Z t ' s elhot a Collecting Committee for the dif ferent ~locks of the ward; and that no sub scription be received for a less amount than 525 from sup person subject to the draft. ' The committee appointed were Messrs. Fitz cerald, Stine and Keller. On motion of Dr. Keller, the meeting adjourned. - Attest, W. K. YERBEKE, Pres% A. L. enema, Seely. Tau following is a copy of an address is sued to the people of Pennsylvania, by Major Dodge, A. A. Provost Marshal General. Our readers should give it a careful perusal, and net accordingly. Every man is interested in the matter, and should assist in filling quotas in the manner mentioned: &manor; !—The President has called for 300,000 troops, to be raised by 'volunteering or draft. The 15th of February, 1805, has been fixed upon as the day of draft. If your quotas are not filled by volunteers by that time the deficiency will most certainly be 'made up by draft. Ward and Township Committees are earn estly invited to commence work at one. The longer you delay the more difficult will be your task. The attention of these Committees is also Invited to the necessity and propriety of de ii:fering. up to the District Provost Marshals c al Winquatts from former drafts. It :Is impossible for the 'United State author• ities to' find these men, secreted as they are by their friends and by persons hostile to the GovernueNlL Committees, United States, state and County officers, and all good oitixens are re quested to arret these men, and deliver them to the Provost liatishals. Every man so arrek,ted and put into service by the Board of Enrollment counts one to wards filling your quota. Information by letter or otherwise, fur nished to District Provost Marshals of the Whereabouts of these delinquents will be thankfully received and promptly acted upon._ Provost Marshals will cause lists of delin quents from all former WO to be made and distributed, to the end that all so disposed buy understandingly assist in forcing these delinquents to perform their duty to their country and to their own people. 104 in all your delinquents; exert your • to put in volunteers • end the necessity s o elveb% will be avoided: f a drag . 4 and navies are everywhere tido- Our omit- of pea c e is at band.

' Major 12th Infantry, A. A. P. _ l4l ' Harrisburg, Dew. 22, 1864. SWORD PRESENTATION.—A sword, sash, belt and revolver, costing some two hundred dol lars, have been presented to Captain A. Wilson Decker, of company K, 202 d Pa. Vols., by the members of his command. The presenta tion speech was made.by Rev. A. R. Miller, Chaplain of the regiment, and the reverend Captain replied. Both addresses were highly interesting and patriotic. OYSTERS AND Elm—Our readers should not forget that Mr. Evy, Second street, near Mulberry, has a splendid lot of oysters and fish, fresh from the Baltimore and Philadel phia markets, which he brought to Harrisburg expressly for the holidays. A turkey stuffed with oysters will make a dinner fit for the Lieutenant General or,. the Vice Admiral. Evy has the oysters, and those who have the turkeys should not fail to call upon him for the, oysters. • =I ST. PAUL'S EPISCOPAL CIDDICR, COINER OF RIDGE ROAD AND RESERVOES.—DiTine service on Sunday (Christmas) morning, at 10i o'clock, and in the afternoon the annual Christmas celebration of the Sunday School, the exer cises commencing at half-past two o'clock. In consequence of the celebration there will be no evening 'service. This church has been neatly decorated in commemoration of the present festive season. PERSONAL.—We notice in our midst Major James Woodal, Assistant Chiet Quartermaster at Headquarters of the Fifth Army Corps.— At the opening of the rebellion he marched to the field as a private in the Kepner Fenci bles (12th Pa. Reserves,) andwas subsequently promoted .to a lieutenantcy, and afterwards to Quartermaster of the regiment to which he belonged. Now he fills a position worthy of the man, and one that will receive his whole attention. Maj. W. is looking well. He will remain in our midst a few days, and then re turn to his post. ELLTbIGER & FOOTE continue to attract large crowds to Brant's Hall, Everybody is anxious to see the Commodore and his little compan ions, whose iferformances on the stage are as wonderful as they are amusing. They appear in so many different characters as to present a new programme at each exhibition. These little folk] are not deformed in any respect, and although they are no larger than children of two or three summers, they are as intelli gent and have minds as fully, developed in all respects as persons of mature age. The old Continentals also appear at each entertain ment, and sing some of their good old songs that have been listened to by thousands in all quarters of our Union; Miss Ellinger, (now Mrs: Russell,) and Profs. Brooks and Woodall add to the attractions by their fine music, and Col. Ellinger gives an interesting account of the "little ones." The whole troupe will ap pear at Brant's Hall this evening; also on. 'Monday afternoon and evening. We hope to see the Hall crowded on each occasion. The entertainment of Monday night will be the last of the season. This afternoon the hall was crowded in every nook and corner, with ladies and children, and all were delighted. Look out for a terrible jam on Monday afternoon and evening. Crattmus is at hand, and with all that hap piness and merriment which we have all here tofore experienced on so many similar occa sions. It is a day of enjoyment to the aged and infirm, to the middle aged, and especi ally to children, as their eyes are centered on the many nice things they've received from tha•visit,of St. Niok. The following lines will give our young readers some idea of the man ner in which this benevolent friend of the "little folks" makes his appearance on Christ mas eve, after the stockings have been hung in the chimney in anticipation of his annual visit: 'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar-plums danced thro' their heads ; And Mamma in her 'kerchief and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap— When out on the lawn there arose such a clat ter, I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I dew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash; The moon, on the breast of the new-fallen snow, Gave the lustre of midnight to objects below— When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, But a miniature sleigh with eight tiny rein deer, With a little old driver so lively and quick,N. I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick. . • - More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, And he whistled and shouted, and called them by name; "Now Dasher! now Dancer! now Prancer! now Vixen! On Comet! on Cupid! on Donder and Blixen! To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall! Now desh away, dash away, dash away, all?" As leaves that before the wild huricane fly, When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky. So up to the house-top the coursers they flew, With a sleigh full of toys—and St. Nicholas too; And then in a twinkling, I heard on the roof The prancing and pawing of each little hoof; As I drew in my head and was turning around, Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound. He was dressed - all in fur from his head to leis foot, And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot; A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, And he looked like a pedler just opening his pack, His eyes, how they twinkled! his dimples how merry! His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry; His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow. The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth, And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath; He had a broad face and a little round belly, Vat shock, when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly; He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself. A wink of his eye, and a twist of his head, Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread, He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk, And laying his finger aside of his nose, And giving a nod, p.p the chimney he rose. He sprang to his eleigh, to his team gave a whistle, And away they all gew like the down of a thistle -3314 I beard him exclaim, ere he drove gut of 6 4 "Happy o Oh lt, ristrees to all, and to all a good „ BUSINESS ITEMS.
