DINNER AT THE SICK SOLDIERS' REST.—To day the ladies prepared a magnificent dinner, which was served up at the Sick Soldiers' Rest, (near the depot,) and tendered the mem bers of Captain B. 0. Cook's company of the Second Battalion, Veteran Reserve Corps. Everything that could add to the elegance of the dinner, was found upon the table, and the brave veterans prounounced it the most sumptuous meal prepared for them since they left their homes. About thirty members of Captain Cook's company (including the gal lant captain) and a few invited guests were present. All had a pleasant time, and enjoy ed the occasion to the fullest extent. 1=02:111 BEAUTIFUL PBESHNT TO A SABBATH SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT.—The Superintendent of the Presbyterian Sunday School at Alexandria, Huntingdon county, was the recipient of a valuable Christmas present, in the shape of a magnificent gold headed cane, of the finest ebony, elaborately chased, the cost of which was $36. It was purchased by the leachers in the school, and presented to the faithful superintendent as a token of their re gard' for him. The following inscription was engraved upon the head: .p r es, -, rited by the Teachers of the Alexan dria Presbyterian Sunday School, . to John Porter, its within' Superintendent for thirty six years. December 25, 1864." The cane was manufactured by M. H. Lee, No. 69 Market sireet, in this city. Mr. M. has on hand, and manufactures to order, all kinds of canes, and persons desiring to pre sent a handsome gift tO their friends, should give him a call. DONATIONS TO A MINISTES.—Last evening a pleasant surprise took place at the First Free Baptist Church in this city. A meeting was held for the annual election of officers, at which Rev. W. G. Coulter was present. At the close of the exercises, Rev. James Colder, in behalf of his congregation, presented the visiting minister, Mr. Coulter, with a well filled purse, and a large quantity of groceries and provisions. The recipient of the dona tion is pastor of the Free Baptist Mission at Manheim, Lancaster county, and as the mission cannot yet pay a salary adequate to the support of their minister, Mr. Colder's congregation took advantage of the presence of Mr. coulter, in this city, and gave him a substantial evidence of their regard for him as a minister of the gospel. The presentation address of Mr. Colder was one of his happiest efforts, and no doubt caused Mr. Coulter to feel that he was in the midst of friends whose benevolence was not confined to their own congregation. Mr. Coulter was completely overcome by the unexpected liberality of his friends here, but finally replied in a few re marks, expressing his gratitude for the very acceptable free-will offering. Tax Locrisix—Fbrmer/y Herr's We direct attention to the advertisement in another column, of William W. Reed & Co., proprietors of the Lochiel, announc ing the opening of that splendid estab lishment. The building has been entirely overhauled, every room having been repaint ed and repapered, and the whole house re furnished with suits of entirely new and mod ern style furniture, so that the Lochiel can new safely claim a place among the first class houses in the country. The office for the reception of guests, is actually one of the finest of any hotel in the State; while the read ing room adjacent is ample and well calcula ted for the purpose to which it has -been de voted. The dining room has also been great ly improved, and the access to it is of the: most private character for ladies, and conve nient for gentlemen. In fact, without at tempting to go into particulars, we must f ran kly concede to the Lochiel all the attractioils and all the accommodations of a modern hoii.`3,. while we are confident the proprietors will spare no effort calculated to make this hotel thi - ; resort of the traveling public doing business at - the State Capital.— The senior member of this firm, Mr. Charles H. Mann, has had great experience in this line of business, while the junior, Mr. W. W. Reed, is Well known as having beenlong con nected with one of the best hotels in Harris burg.

DEATH OF A FORMER CITIZEN.—We learn from the Erie Gazette that Mr. George S. Whitehill, for many years a citizen of Harris burg, was run over by a locomotive, last week, in the city of Erie, and instantly killed. The deceased stepped upon the track as the en gine was approaching, and being very hard of hearing, was not aware of his danger until too late to avert it. He had been in the em ploy of the Cleveland and Erie railroad com pany, as a book-keeper, and was highly es teemed. His funeral took place on Thursday, the 22d inst., from the residence of his brother4n-law. Mr. David Shirk. CCM WHO IS THE LEEKS' FATHER ?—The Fulton Republican contains the following, from which it would appear_ that a soldier in Capt. Malo ney's companyhas been uncommonly fortu nate: One of the soldiers of Company G, 201st P. V., stationed at this place, receind word on Monday last that his wife had, aAw days previous, given birth to three children. He immediately stated the facts to Capt. Malo ney, commandant of the post, and asked for, a furlough, that he might visit the new In fantry brigade. The Captain, being an ex tremely modest man, came near fainting on hearing the facts above narrated, but speedily recovering, granted the request. We think the soldier should not only have a furlough, but that he should receive a full discharge and pension. We would suggest for the trio the names of Sherman, Grant and Thomas. PENNSYLVANIA, SS.
