and are ornamental in the highest degree. Mr.

FIRE Msuswer..David . Mumma, Jr., was ap
pointed Chief Marshal of the fire department for
;be parade on the 22d, by Gen. Kelm, but not be
ing as active fireman, he declined the honor ten
dered him. On Saturday evening a committee
from each of the fire companies met at - the Hope
house, and elected I. B. Cox, of the Washington
Hon Company, as Chief Marshal, and also ap
pointed a committee to apprise the committee of
arrangements of their action, which duty was per
fumed yesterday afternoon, and the new arrange
ment was deemed satisfactory.
REMARKABLE CHAGNE.—The weather, which was
!old and blustering during the greater part of last
week, suddenly changed - , and yesterday, so far as
Temperature was concerned, was not much unlike
a spring day. Such sudden changes are terrible
on people who are not fortified with , cast - iron
gutta perch& constitutions, compelling them to
fall back on the by-laws. So far as we are indi
vidually concerned, we have been terribly under
the weather for some time past, and have been deci
dedly in pursuit of locals -under difficulties. We
have placed ourself under charge of Dr. Dock,
snd have strong hopes of recuperating.
SIPPERING Hi THE SIXTH WARD.—We learn in
iireetly through one of the up-town ministers of
e Gospel, that there is much suffering in the
sixth ward of this city. The preacher in wrestle°,
f!om his own slender income, has been dealing out
liberally among those who are in absolute want of
:be necessaries of life, and it strikes us that the
example he sets should serve as a lesson to those
who profess to be governed by the ruling princi
ple of the Bible, which so strongly urges charity
:Ilion the followers of the Lord. People who are
disposed to doubt the existence of want in our city,
would do well to take a stroll through the quarter
Indicated.
Oaten or Ott. Wxtte.—ln Venango and the
'trdering counties where the people live, talk and
MIL swear by their oil wells, the newspapers eon
ant themselves with discussing the origin of these
i:ngalar natural productions. The Spectator man,
rho is 'dwell up in his catechism," finally carries
cif the palm by establishing Job as the first man
tat ever sprung a well. He says :
"Joh xxxix, 6, the text reads—'The rock poured
me out rivers of oil.' This is the oldest record of
:be Petroleum business and more ancient than the
accounts gi the discovery of oil in Birmab, which
daterback some 400 years. Job was a rich
man, and probably owned a4O barrel well. He
Ras the first operator in Petroleum of whom we
lave any account, though oil is also mentioned in
Deuteronomy nail, 13."
SEVERAL Scotch Mountain Sheep have recently

liawspernas m Tonsisir.—ftin interesting let
ter from Constantinople has the following interest
log items :
There are now published in Constantinople more
than twenty newspapers; one in English—a well
er , ranoted weekly, with a daily bulletin, having a
large circulation; three in Frenoh—one daily
owned by the`government; one semi-weekly, with
a daily bulletin—an ably conducted paper, which
very apt to expose all the weak points of the
g o vernment; one monthly medical paper ; three in
T urkish—one_ official, one semi-official, and one al
together independent; one kin Greek, having a
'I ?go circulation representing -Greek influences; ten
Armenian, one owned by the American mission,
and edited by Rei. Dr.'Dwight, which is partially
religious and partly secular; one or two of the
Qbers are able papers, but most of them are of a
rather low order, and devote themselves especially
tr , slandering the American missionaries. There
are also two Bulgarian papers, which have a good
c
4reulation and much influence, especially at this
E xciting crisis of the Bulgarian church. There

MESSRS. EDITORS : I deem it necessary'in wind
cation of myself to ask you to insert in your pa
per the preamble and resolution which I offered on
the Eth inst., and which were passed by the Good
Will The Company, that the citizens of Harrisburg
may judge of their character.
It has always been a rule of my
life to pursue a
mild, conciliatory course in all my transaetions
with the world, and looking with horror. at the
prospect of revolution, of anarchy and fraternal
strife between brethren of one country, my motive
was to do whatever lay in my power, in the humble
sphere in which I was placed, to allay the animo
sity which so unfortunately exists, and refrain from
doing any act which might have the least semblance
of retaliation to the course pursued by the South.
According to the principle laid down, I shall
not reply to the Telegraph any futther than to ask
them to examine the natter fully and fairly, and
if they have done me any injustice, I trust, I know,
they will have the magnanimity and candor to do
me justice. I ask nothing aloe. . Those principles
laid down I shall stand by. I shall die, if it is
necessary, in their defence. W. K. VERDEICE.
At a meeting of the Good Will Fire Company,
held on the evening of the Bth inst., the following
preamble and resolutions were adopted:
Witanzas, The Legislature of Pennsylvania have
determined to raise the American flag on the dome
of the State Capitol on the 22d inst., and having
received an invitation to participate in the cere
monies, the Good Will Fire Company desiring to
express their love and veneration for the flag of
their country, of their true devotion to it, and of
their willingness, if necessary, to die in its de
fence; yet, considering the unfortunate condition
of the country, when conciliation and mutual for
bearance should be cultivated and exercised by
every one to the fullest extent, and as some might
view the act as a retaliatory measure against their
brethren of the South, for raising the Palmetto
flag; therefore be it
Rsecaved by the Good Wits Fire Company, That,
while they love their country's flag, and pledge
themselves with their lives to uphold it whenever
and wherever it may be in peril; but desiring
their country's peace, prosperity and welfare, and
that concord and fraternal feeling may be revived
among their fellow-countrymen, and fearing that
the act of raising the flag at the present time would
have a tendency to aggravate, rather than soothe
the unkind feelings unhappily existing between
the North and the South. They therefore deem it
proper and expedient not to take part in the cere
monies, which, under other circumstances, they
might enter into with pleasure, and consider it an
honor to participate therein.
Attest: G. B. EGLE, Secretary.
Tita ADAMS EXPRBBB.—According to the corres
pondent of the Philadelphia Sunday Dispatch, the
bill for chartering the "Guarantee Express Com
pany" is merely a bill to "pinch" the Adams Ex
press Company, and may be regarded as one of the
tricks of legislation. The correspondent say!:
"There is a bill pending in the . House to charter
the "Guarantee Express Company." After due
examination, I have come to the conclusion that it
is a "pinch bill," and its object is to make the Ad
ams Express Company "come down." • I hope the
company will adopt the motto, "Millions for defence,
but not one cent for tribute." I know that the
company is looked upon as. a laige money-making
monopoly, but it is only by those_ who do not un
derstand its vast ramifications. I hal e sometimes
myself profaned at what I considered an exhorbi
tent charge for freight on a small Package, but it
was owing to ignorance.
'The Adams Express Company is an organization
under the limited co-partnership laws of the State
of New York, and does business under an entire
and absolite individual liability principle. If they
agree to carry a thousand dollars or a grind-stone
for you, they are responsible for its safe delivery.
They have lost thousands upon thousands of dol
lars by robbery, fire and accident, and yet they
have never failed to reimburse any man who has
had a claim against them. This has established a
confidence in them as common carriers which no
cry of monopoly can ever shake. The enormous
amount of money they pay to railroad companies,
and their own agents and employees, together with
the losses they sustain, renders it doubtful aboWt
their profits being so enormous as they are geneially
computed. If, however, a charter was asked for by
a company in good faith to establish a healthy com
petition, I should wish them success; but. such a
transparent humbug as the euarantee arrangetnent
deserves the oondemnation of every' honest man
opposed to black-mailing. Col. Bingham has been
here, and has so far enlightened some of the mem
bers of the object contained in the bill, that I am
pretty well satisfied that it will go overboard."
Since the above was in type, we have received
the Philadelphia Inquirer, which makes allusion
to the matter, and states that the limited co-part
nership law of this State and New York are alike
—based upon a law of rrance, which makes . the
co-partners liable only to the amount they each
invest in the co-partnership. This is a legal in
terpretation to the law not justified by equity or
reasonable sound sense. If snob an assumption
were tenable, the laws of co-partnership would re
lieve men from the necessity of going to the Legis
lature to procure charters for corporations, which
is always done with an eye single to getting rid of
the individual liability clause, over and above the
amount of stock subscribed.
THE INFLUENCE OF A Goon WOHAN.—I some
times think, says a modern essayist, the influence
of a good woman is greater than that of a good
man; there are so many avenues to the heart left
open to her gentle approach, which would be in
stantly barred -up at the sound of rougher foot
steps. One may tell anything to a good woman.
In her presence pride sleeps or is disarmed. The
old child-feeling comes back upon the world-weary
man, and he knows not why he has reposed the
unsought confidence which has so lightened his
heart; why ,he goes forth ashamed that one so
feeble is so much mightier ; why he could fly from
the foe for whose approach he so conrageonely
tarries; why he thinks of the dagger, or pistol, or
poison cup, while she, accepting the fierce blast of
misfortune, meekly bows her head till the whirl
wind be overpast---believing, hoping, knowing,
that Heaven's bright smile of sunshine will break
through at last.
The world-Weary man looks on with wonder, re-
Verencing, yet not comprehending. How can he
comprehend—he who stands in his pride, with his
panting soul uncovered,in the scorching Sahara of
reason, and then complains that no dew falls, no
shower descends, no buds, blossoms, nor, fruit cheer
him? How can he who faces with folded arms
and defiant attitude comprehend the twining love
clasp and satisfied heart-reet which eemes only to
love? Thank God, woman is not too proud to take
what she so needs; that she does not plant her
foot, and refuse to stir, till her Guide tells her why
He is leading her by this -path instead of that; and
though every footprint be marked with her heart's
blood, she does not relax her grasp,or doubt Bit
faith! Well may her glance; her touch, the rue tle
of her garments even, have power to soothe and
bless; well may the soft touch of such upon brows
knotted with the werld's strife bring coolness and
peace. Oh, woman ! with your arms akimbo, leave
it to profane Denial:Ls to hold Samson by shearing
his locks ! Be strong-minded as you will, if only
yon be pure and gentle-hearted!
A Manchester paper says that a new article of
commerce introduced by the late French treaty iff
the "bois duree." This "bois dune," or hardened
wood, which has been improperly described as
wood softened and then hardened, is made from
sawdust, which, under the influence of a high tem
perature and the enormous pressure of six hundred
tons, acquires a hardness a good deal exceeding
that of wood. It is of a very fine grain, and fears
no atmospherical variation ; but its principal merit
is its adaptation to moulding, and by the most eco
nomical processes forms and impressions are given
which would require, in any way, considerable
labor and workmanship.
SITICIDE.—A man by the name of Krause, com
mitted suicide inAllentown on Wednesday eight,
by hanging himself in a stable belonging to one of
the botels in that place. Cause temporary insanity
or more properly, mental dejection produced by
destitution and want. He was about eighty years
of age, and was, at one time, in good circumstances,
and a respected citizen of Allentown.
At a Tocutiug of the Good Will Fire Congiany,
the following ryolution was adopted : •
Resolved, That the members of the Good Will
Engine Company , unite with the members of the
different fire companies of this city in the ceremo
nies attendant upon the hoisting of the Ameliican
- flag on the dome of the Capitol of Pennsylvania,
ordered by the Legislature, now in session, to take
place on the 22d day of the present month—that
being the anniversary of the birthday of Washing
ton, the , founder of our glorious Union.
STEEL PENS AND PARALYLIS.-At the examina
tion of the • Framingham Normal School recently,
President Felton spoke in, strong terms of the
serious effects of steel pens and of their tendency
to injure or paralyse the norm of the arm. The
proof of the pudding Is in the eating of it, and we
are consequently prepared to say that steel pens
have never hurt our right arm, after a constant
practice of twenty years. To be sure, much of our
long experience has been gained in the agreeable
duty of writing notices of the elegant garments far
gentlemen and youths, made at tho Brown Stone
Clothing Hall of Rookhill do Wilsen, Nos. 603 end
605 Chesnut street, above Sixth, Philadelphia.
Pex's PATENT PARAGON UMBRELLAE.---IE the
manufacture of an umbrella (an article equally in
dispensable in this climate to health .as well as
comfort,) weight is a most important consideration.
Numerous as have been the improvements made
in them since their first introduction into this
country, about the year nso, until the Paragon
frame was invented. by Mr. Pox, of London, and
patented by him, it was considered impossible
combine extreme lightness with requisite strength.
The novel principle adopted by. Mr. Fox in its
construction, that in a recent trial in the Court of
Queen's Bench, in connection with this inttent, the
Paragon frame was proved. to be the lightest ever
made, being less than half, the *eight of whale
bone, although considerably stronger. -
Messrs:Yea & Co. have made arrangements to
supply the American trade, and at low cash prices.
It is well to state that they can be had in silk and
gingham, and can be bought at Mr. F. Lee's
brella and cane manufactory. Se has also a large
assortment of gold, silver and fancy headed canes,
which he will sell at lower prices than can be bad
