standing the severe freezings and frequent thaws

BALLS AND Pawrnts.—The time is fast drawing
to a elose when these juvenile and healthful amuse

to "trip it on the light fantastic toe" occurs on
the 10th inst.
Tax GIIABDS. We learn that a number of young
men of our city aro about joining the Cameron
Guards. The corps is one of the finest and best
drilled companies in the State, and it is a burning
shame that they cannot turn out at least one hun
dred men.
The salary of the Mayor of Reading has been

The coal shipments over the Lebanon Valley

For the week ending the 21st inst., 250 tons 12

This is exclusive of ' the coal• left at the way-sta
tions on the road.
Jos Pntirrrau.—We are at all times prepared to
execute twiny description of book, job and card
printing at this office, in the highest style of the
art, and at the cheapest living prices. Our office
is the most complete in the county, and the speci
mens of fine printing which we have sent out are
not to be excelled.
About a dozen hands were discharged at G. D.
Coleman's Lebanon Furnaces last week, and we are
informed that still more are to be discharged this
week. The intention of putting into blast the
other furnace has been given up for the present.
A further proof that the good flaw that were
to arrive after the election and the passage of the
Morrill tariff bill have arrived.
BAD Ilamtvzon.—On Wednesday night last a
number of young men, mostly from the country;
managed to get themselves ontsitbg of some chock
ing bad whisky, and conducted themselves in a
manner altogether creditable to the whisky, and
as such patriotic efforts on their part should not go
unnoticed, we shall give their names to notoriety
the next time they thus distinguish themselves.
A Nsw Ezrranraiss.—The citizens of Chesnut
HM have just received frbm the Legislature a
cha;ter for an academy in that beautiful suburb.
The plans for the building are already prepared,
and its erection is to be commenced at once. The
material will be the stem e found in abundance in
that vicinity, out of which are constructed so many
of the villas that stud the beautiful landscape in
that region.
Onourravarr Cont.—A Philadelphia paper of
yesterday says that &number of $2.50 gold pieces,
dated 1858, have been passed in that city within
the last few days. One which we examined last
evening was well executed, but was lighter than
the genuine coin. We noticed also that the piece
has a line above the female head, as if from a bro
ken die. Storekeepers should ba on their guard.
To FannEns.—An act is now before the Legis
lature, entitled "An act to secure to farmers cer
tain rights in the markets of the city of Philadel
phia." It ordains that any farmer may lawfully
sell at any stall or stand in the city, in any quan
tity, any meat of a Marketable quality slaughtered
on his farm, without regard to whether the same
be produced or fattened on his farm or elsewhere.
su A b il TR E Es.—We have heard of several °M
anta whn have had the shade trees in front of their
houses spoiled, the present season, by intinerant
trimmers who called at their doors and professed
their ability to trim the trees in a skillful and
satisfactory manner. When it was too late to
remedy the misetteif it was discovered that the
persons were pretenders, who knew nothing what
ever concerning she business they had undertaken.
The better plan is to have such work done only
by persons who are known to be practiced gar
deners.
FIINZIEUL OF MR. Wauort.—The remains of Prof.
Waugh ware yesterday interred in the Harrisburg
cemetery, and was largely attended by his former
friends and acquaintances. The clergy turned out
is full force, and the cortege consisted of twenty_
three carriages and seven omnibuses. The remains
of Mr. Waugh were followed to the grave by his
pupils, who showed their feelings toward their
former preceptor by an extreme ebulition of grief.
The funeral was one of the largest that ever took
place in this city, and shows the estimation of the
people of Harrisburg toward one they dearly
loved.
FORTUNE Ter.r.sus.—We are glad to see that the
law against fortune tellers victimizing the people
has passed the Legislature. Our city, at this time
contains several of these humbugs, and hopes are
now entertained that they will endeavor to And
some means by which they can make an honest
living. One of our exchanges truly remarks that
but little is known to the public of the tricks prac
tised upon the unsuspecting by the fortune tellers
who infest every city and town of any size. These
mountebanks claim that they can look into the
mysterious future and discover coming events, and
their victims are generally the weak and supersti
tions—pretty servant girls, who imagine that their
charms are for a higbersphere than the kitchen.
When such poor, deluded girls visit one of these
professors of second sights, he can 'easily discern
the condition of the simpletons, and, at once hold
out the lure of higher social rank and unbounded
connubial love and felicity. These professors are
almost always in league with the roues of the town,
who employ them to procure for them introduc
tions, which almost always result in ruin to the
unfortunate girls.
One method of exciting the curiosity of the mis
guided females is to place a daguerreotype of the
future husband in a vessel of water, from which
the veil is drawn for an instant, revealing to the
victim's eyes her lover. She is so bewildered with
the mystery that she does not detect the cheat, and
finally believes in the illusion. She is delighted,
and accepts the procuress' statement that if she
will walk in a particular place, at some defined
hour, she will meet with her lover. The roue is
informed that this poor dupe will be ready, and he
meets her. The sequel will be to ruin her, almost
to a certainty. This is only one of the tricks of
these detestable swindlers, but the most frequently
practiced upon silly girls.
THE LATE RAILROAD ACCID&NT—The Burned
ilaile.—The postmaster of the city has politely
furnished the following letter for publication in re
lation to the mails burned on the Pennsylvania
Railroad on the 20th instant :
POST OFFICIO" PS/LAT/L.lj
March 27, 1861.
In addition to the information unofficially pub
lished, in papers of the 22d instant, relative to the
burning of the mail car on the Pennsylvania Cen
tral Railroad, on the night of the 20th inst., it has
been ascertained to have contained one pouch for
New York. five for Washington, D. C., four for
Baltimore, Md., six for Harrisburg, and sixteen for
Philadelphia delivery and digtribution. Of those
intended for Philadelphia, twelve pouches were re
ceived at Pittsburg, and, by the way, one from
Johnstown, one from Hollidaysburg, one from Al
toona, and one from Tyrone.
The Southern and Western mail for Philadelphia,
via Pittsburg, appears to have embraced pouches
from the following named places, v%iz New Or
leans, 14th inat.; Mobile, 17th inst.; Nashville,
18th inst.; Louisville, 19th inst.; St. Louis, 19th
inst., a. m. ; Chicago, 19th inst., p. m.; Pittsburg,
Port Wayne and Chicago, Route Agent, 20th inst.;
Toledo, 20th inst. (supposed;) Cleveland, 20th host;
Cincinnati, 19th inst., p. m.; Columbus, Ohio, 20th
inst.; Pittsburg, 20th inst., p. m.
So far as return registered letter bills received,
there appears to have been eighteen registered
letters from the following places, viz: Slaystown,
Pa.; Pittsburg, Pa.; Columbus, Ohio; Cleveland,
Ohio; Toledo, Ohio; Cincinnati, Ohio; Chicago,
Altoona, Pa. The parties in interest have
been notified. N. B. Baowsx, P. M.
Efroorarrowa ITEMS.—From the Journal of yes
terday :
Exploded.—The boiler on the engine of the first
freight train down, on Tuesday, exploded at Ifurst's
station, below town. The top of the engine was
shattered to pieces and otherwite damaged. The
track was also torn up. Strange to say, no person
was injured.
Look Out.—Tbe newly elected burgess of this
borough, Mr. Ramsay, is determined that the bo
rough ordinances shall be carried out, and par
ticularly will he see that the ordinance in reference
to "disorderly assemblages" is rigidly enforced.—
Those young men and boys who make a practice
of collecting in front of churches, store-rooms, Ike,
blocking the pavements and annoying our peacea
ble citizens by indulging in loud and sometimes
profane language, are advised to abandon these
practices at once, or they will certainly suffer the
full penalty of the law.
Wood tt: Sterling's Furnases.—These extensive
works have been leased by Messrs. H. J. Miley &
C 0.,. under whose management both furnaces will
be put into operation—but one has been in blast
for some time past; the other, under the new ar
rangement, will be ready for operation in a few
weeks, when a large number of additional' hands
will be employed. Mr. H. Miley, the principal
gentleman composing the firm, is one of our most
influential, enterprising and clever citizens, and we
are pleased that he has taken hold of these works.
Success to him.
THE DAYS OP QUEEN ELIZABETH.-TO England,
in the days of "Good Old Queen Bess," education
was chiefly confined to nobles and priests ; the ce m
forts and luxuries of life were scarcely enjoyed
even by the rich; commerce was small; wood was
exported to Flanders; the coin was debased; the
roads were nearly impassible except to horsemen;
trade was in the hands of monopolists; the streets
were infected with vagabonds; great public func
tionaries were venial; the clergy were too ignorant
to write sermons; there was nothing imposing in
art; the kingdom numbered only about four mil
lions, and these four millions of people were gen
erally attired in garments which were vastly infe
rior to the splendid suits produced now-a-days at
the Brown Stone Clothing Hail, of Rockhill &
Wilson, Nos. 603 and 605 Chestnut street, above
Sixth, Philadelphia.
THIL 'EXTRAVAGANCE OF FASHION.-811100 the
rage, says the London Review, for dress and finery
set in ; since the extravagance is a womanly
beauty, and to live beyond one's means a social re
quirement; since the loom and the workshop have
taken the place of birth and refinement, and the
moneyed vulgarian is counted higher than the pen
niless aristocrat; since women have been ranked
by what they wear and not by what they are, and
a becoming toilet is counted equal to a personal
grace; since none but a chosen few dare to be sim
ple, none but a remnant of the faithful dare to
bold themselves aloof from luxury and fashion—
more families have been ruined than has ever been
known before, and the boasted happiness of the
English home is fast becoming a fable and a myth.
OFFICE SEEKERS.—We find the following special
dispatch from Washington in the Philadelphia In
pirer of the 26th inst. :
Mr. Lincoln is besieged by members of the Penn
sylvania Legislature, who are rendered keen by
the success of the Speakers of both Houses in ob
taining lucrative positions. Every one desires
something for himself and his relatives. It is ru
mored to-day that the President will require them,
on filing their applications, to subscribe under oath
as follows : "I, A. 8., solemnly declare that I have
not, as member of the Pennsylvania Legislature,
received any consideration for voting for any bill,
and that I am not interested in any passenger rail
way or other corporation, obartered during the
present session." It Is expected that this will rem
duce the number of applicants considerably, and a
general scatter is expected.
FACTORY Brynnen.—A few nights since the large
factory of Mr. James Buckley, in Sadsbury town
ship, Chester county, was destroyed by fire. The
.fire was discovered in the garret, and rapidly
spreading, soon destroyed the whole building and
contents. This factory was formerly eng age d i n
the manufacture of satinetts, the necessary ma
chinery for which was still in the building. About
two years since, the manufacture of jeans wag earn
menced, which continued up to week before last,
when the stock was all used up and the factory
stopped. There were no goods or stook in the
building when it was burned, except a small bun
dle of cotton and two bundles of waste or inferior
cotton. The building was of stone, about 70 by
50 feet, and was full of valuable machinery.
[Communicated.]
TUN HALL OF INIMPENEENCE, IN THE CITY OF
ParLADELPnia.—Members of the Legislature, save
it from ruin—take it under your protection. The
Councils of Philadelphia, at all times, have
dese
craked it, and in making use of it as a business
house have exposed it to all the accidents of fire
and light. Royal palaces, if destroyed by.fire, can
be rebuilt; but not so with this gem of our na
tional independence. If burned down, it is gone
forever. Does not our national honor command us
to protect it from such a fearful calamity ? Order,
by law, that courts of justice and their offices
should no longer be kept in it; let it be made fire
proof outside, and let light and fire be forbidden
inside; forbid it to be used, as it is now, as a com
mon thoroughfare ; let it be (surrounded by a gilt
iron railing) the only building on Independence
Square, and let „ all the others be removed; let all
the rooms inside be used as a museum for our great
men. If the Square belongs to the city, pass a
law to purchase it, and have it adorned in a suit
able manner, corresponding with the sacred edifice
that is the birth-place of our national independence
An Old Citizen.

who intend removing their places of residence
about the Ist of April, and desiring the place of
sending their paper changed, will please give us
notice to that effect. Early attention to this mat

PROF. WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE.
READ WHAT A DISTINGUISHED PHYSICIAN
OF ST. LOUIS SAYS OF IT.
St. Louis, July 10th, 1860.
0. J. WOOD, Egg.: Dear Sir—Allow me the pleasure
and satisfaction to transmit to you the beneficial effects
of your Hair Restorative after a trial of five years. I
commenced using your Restorative in January. 1855,
since which time I have.not been without a bottle on
hand. When I commenced the use, my hair was quite
thin, and at least one-third gray. A few applications
stopped its felling, and in three weeks time there was
not a gray hair to be found, neither has there been up to
this time.
After my hair was completely restored, I continued its
use by applying two or three times per month. My hair
has ever continued healthy, soft and glossy, and my scalp
perfectly free from dandruff. I do not imagine the facts
above mentioned will be of any particular advantage to
you, or even flatter your vanity at this late day, as I am
well aware they are all well known already, and even
more wonderful ones throughout the Union. I have oc
cupied my time in traveling the greater part of the time
the past three years, and have taken pride and pleasure
in recommending your Restorative and exhibiting its
effects in my own case. In several instances I have met
with people that have pronounced it a humbug ; saying
they had used it, and without effect. In every instance
however, it proved by probing the matter, thatthey had
not used the article at all, bat had used some new arti
cle, said to be as good as yours, and selling at about half
the price. I have noticed two or three articles myself
advertised as above, which I have no doubt are humongs.
It is astonishing that people will patronize an article of
no reputation, when there is one at hand that has been
proved beyond a doubt.
Apparently, some of those charlatans havenot brains
enough to write an advertisement, as I notice they have
copied yours, word for word in several instances, merely
inserting some other name in place of yours.
I have, within the past five years, seen and talked with
more than two thousand persons that have used your
preparation with perfect success—some for baldness,
gray hair, scald head, dandruff, and every disease the
scalp and head are subject to.
I called to see you, personally, at your original place
of business here, but learned you were now liviug in New
York.
You are at liberty to publish this or to refer parties to
rule. Any communication addressed to me, care box
1920, will be promptly answered. Yours trul
M y,

PROF. WOOD; Dear Sir—l was induced more than a
year ago to try your valuable Hair Restorative, for the
purpose of cleansing my head of dandruff I had suf
fered with it upon my head for years, and had never been
able to get anything to do me any good in removing it,
although I had tried many preparations, until I saw
your advertisement in a Harrisburgpaper. Being there
at the time, I called at Gross & Ross's Drug Store
and bought a bottle, and now am prepared to recommend
it to universal use, for it has completely removed all dand
ruff from my head, and an application once in two weeks
keeps it free from any itching or other unpleasantness.—
I must also state that my hair had become quite white
in places, and, by the use of your preparation, has been
restored to its original color. lam now bOyears of age,
and although I have used two bottles of the Restora-
tive, no one has any knowledge of it, as I allow a few
gray hairs to remain in order to have my appearance
comport with my age. My head is now of less trouble
to me, in keeping it clean, &c., than at any time since
I have been &child. I consider your preparationofgreat
value. and although I do not like to expose myself, I
consider it my duty to say so. You can use this, or any
part of it, in any shape yen think proper, if it is worth
anything to you. Yours, &c.,
H. H. ETTER.
Bloomington, Ind., July 30th, 1859.
Dear Sir :—I here send you a statement that I think
yen are entitled to the benefit of. I am a resident of
Bloomington and have been for over thirtyyears. Ism
now over 50 years of age. For about twenty years past
my hair has been turning considerably gray, and was
almost entirely white, and very stiff and nnpliant. I
had seen a number of certificates of the very wonderful
effect of your Hair Restorative, but supposed there was
more fiction than truth in them ; but entertaining a
strong desire to have my hair, if possible, restored to its
original color and fineness, as it was in my younger day s
a beautiful black, I concluded I would make the experi
ment, commencing in a small way. I purchased one of
your small bottles, at one dollar, and commenced using,
following directions as nearly as I could. I soon discov
ered the dandruff removed, and my hair, that was fall
ing off in large quantities, was consithrably tightened,
and a radical change taking place in the eolor. I have
continued to use it till I have used three of your stna , l
bottles, and just begun on the fourth. I have now as
pretty a head of dark brown, or light black hair, as any
man, or as f had in in, youthful days when a boy in the
hills of Western 'Virginia. My head is entirely clear of
dandruff, and the hair ceased entirely falling off, and is
as soft and fine, and feels as oily, as though it was just
from under the hands of a French shampooer. Many
of my acquaintances frequently say to me, "Butler, where
did you get that line wig?" 1 tell them it was the ef
fects of your Restorative. It is almost impossible to
convince them that it is the original hair of the same
old gray head. Yours, truly,
FREDERICK T. BUTLER,
Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana.
PROF. WOOD'S HAIR RESTORLTIVE.-111 another col
umn will be found an advertisement of this well-known
and excellent preparation for restoring gray hair to its
original color. The flair Restorative also cures cuta
neous eruptions, and prevents the hair falline off. We
have seen many authentic testimonials in proof of these
assertions, some of which are from gentlemen whom we
have known for many years as persons of the most re
liable character. Don't dye till you have tried this Re
storative.—Boston ()Zhu Branch.
WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVB.—We are not in the habit
of puffing every new oiscovery, for nine cases of ten
they are quack nostrums : but we take great pleasure in
recommending Professor W nod's article, to all whose hair
is falling off, or turning gray. Our well-known contri
butor, Finley Johnson, Esq., has experienc , rl the bene
fits of its application, and joins with us in speaking of its
virtues. Let all try it, and bald heads will be as rare as
snow in Summer.—Baltinfore Patriot.
WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE .—Unlike most specifics,
this is proved, by unimpeachable ev.dence, to possess
great efficacy as a restorer of the hair to its pristine
vigor. Where the head had become almost bald because
of sickness, the use of this article has produced a beau
tiful growth of thick, glossy hair. It is therefore a val
uable preparation for all classes. Its ingredients are
such as to effectually eradicate, dandruff and other im
purities, which operate so injuriously to the hair. It
also has curative properties of another descripti n In
many cases pimples and other disfigurements of the skin
disappear wherever it is used. There is no hazard at
taching to the trial of this remedy, and its effects can
only be beneficial, as the compound_ if it does not cause
a manifest improvement, is incapable of doing harm, as
its component elements are perfectly innoxious.—Bos
ton Transcript, Aprtl22, ;19.
A GENII= 1300 X .—ln our capacity as conductor of a
public journal we are called upon to advertise the cure
alls of the day, each of which claims to be unadultera
ted in its composition and infallible in its curative ef
fects—with what justice we leave our readers to deter
mine. In one instance, however—Prof. 'Wood's Hair
Restorative—we are so well assured of the notable
qualities of the article that we give it our endorsement
as all that its inventor and vender claims it to be. Its
effect upon a falling head of harts universally known to
be magical; like lime or guano on exhausted laud, it
brings its crop wherever applied. Our own thatch is
fortunately healthy, but we advise our friends with
sparsely growing hair to trythe Restorative.—Columbia
Spy.
QUACK Nowraust —The majority of hair washes, hair
dyes, hair tonics, hair oils, and the numberlessprepara
tions which are now before the public under such ex
travagant, hyperbolical and fantastic titles as we see
paraded in show windows and newspaper headings; as
hair preparations, are all humbugs of the first wster
their real merit, when they possess any, is, that they do
no harm. Hog's lard, whale oil, lard oil, sweet oil,
scented and colored, make up, when in beautiful wrap
pers, and white flint glassbottles, the costliest character
of tonics. and when thus costly, are baptisedwith some
tri-syllable term, and caught at by verdant young and
old of both sexes. Such is not the character of Prof.
Wood's Hair Restorative. This gentleman comea before
the world without any "h ighfalut tt:l a q
eh
y Xo f t o e r r i m u mi
he any other astounding and startling o
simply advertises a Hair Restorative—what it expresses,
precisely—and as a Restorative it acts. Buy Professor
Wood's Hair Restorative, and as you value your scalp,
aye, your very brains, apply nothing else ; for St may be
that you will get some worse substance than perfumed
lard oil on your cranium. 'Remember. Wood's Restora
tive for the Hair is the best article extant. —New York
