CARLISLE PRESBYTERY.—The session of the Car
lisle Presbytery, which has been held in the Old
School Presbyterian chuich, in this city, for the
past few days' adjourned yesterday at noon.
Count , WEER—The next term of criminal court
commences on next Monday week. The trial list
is quite full, embracing crimes from murder to
surety of the peace. Persons having business will
please take notice.
BEM Our THE SPRINKLER.—The last few days
of warm sun has had the tendency to dry the mud
in our streets to such an extent as to render the
dust anything but agreeable. We suggest that the
street sprinkler be put in use immediately.
Fog THE WEST--For the past few days quite a
number of families passed through this city on
their way to the West. Lebanon county was lib
erally represented, as was also Lancaster. The
emigrants consisted mostly of substantial farmers,
who go to the West with a desire to better their
condition.
Mr. J. W. Deal, conductor on the Cumberland
Valley Railroad, between this city and Chambers
burg, has been appointed postmaster for Chambers
burg. We learn that Mr. D. was not an applicant,
but those who wanted the appointment said and
wrote such hard things about each other that a
third party was selected for the office.
Ractsurrs son C&RLISLE.—A body of thirty-five
recruits arrived in this city yerterday, from New
York, destined for Carlisle Barracks. They were
all fine looking young fellows, and looked to us as
if they might have been mechanics out of employ.
Recruiting is going on with much energy in New
York, as we were informed by the officer having
the recruits in charge.
PEnsoßAL.—Hon. John Sherman, of Ohio, and
Hon. J. K. Morehead, of Allegheny county, passed
through this city yesterday on their way to Wash
ington. The Hon. Alexander Ramsey, ex-Gov
ernor of Minnesota, formerly a resident of this
city, has been spending a few days here with his
friends. He took his departure yesterday for the
Mecca of offica hunters.
MORE barnovamstrrs.—We learn that Gen. Cam
eron will commence in a few days to remove the
frame structure on Second street above Walnut,
preparatory to building two fine brick houses. The
houses will adjoin the corner building and be three
stories high. A number of fine frame buildings
have already been erected in the First ward this
spring, and quite a number more are in the course
of construction.
AN OLD SOLDIED Gonz.—John Moore, Esq., of
Newville, Cumberland county, died at his resi
dence, in that plane, on Monday last. Mr. M.
served his country in the war of 1814, having been
a member of one of the companies that marched
from Cumberland county to the Canada frontier in
March of the year above named, and took part in
the battles of Bridgewater and Chippewa. The
deceased was highlyesteemed and respected by all
who knew him.
Cans or Svovus AND PisEs.--IThen the stoves
are no longer needed, they are quite frequently set
aside in an out-building, or other out of the way
place, with no further thought, until again wanted
for use. If neglected, the rust of the summer may
injure them more than the whole winter's wear,
particularly the parts of sheet iron. They should
be kept as free from dampness as possible, and oc
casionally cleaned if rust be observed. An ex
change recommends to apply a coating of linseed
oil to the pipes before putting them away. It
should be done while the pipes are warm (nothot)
and kept at a low temperature five or six hours.
This will impart a luster, and prevent rusting.
Su TO is a true and trite saying,that we
should 'cultivate the beautiful, for the usefull will
attend to itself; and in these early days of fickle
April, every one who owns - a foot of fertile soil, or
rood of heath, or rod of hillside, whereon to let a
floWerct trail or vine to clamber, should improve
the present opportunity, so that when summer
comes these frail and fair censors may fling their
fragrance to the air. No matter if you do not own
the house or yard which you inhabit—still plant
flowers and trailing vines, as well as to greet the
passer-by, as for your own heart's sake.
"Let the flowers look upward in every place,
Throughout this beautiful world of ours,
For dear as the smiles on an old friend's face,
is the loving gleam of bright-eyed flowers !"
HOW TO PROSPER DE BUSINESS.--In the first
place make up your mind to accomplish whatever
you undertake; decide upon some particular em
ployment, and persevere in it. All difficulties are
overcome by diligence and assiduity. Be not afraid
to work with your bands, and diligently, too. "A
eat in gleves catches no mice." lie who remains
in the mill grinds; not be who goes and comes.—
Attend to your own business ; never trust to any
one else: "a pot that belongs to too many is ill
stirred, and worse boiled." Be frugal: "that
which will not make a pot will make a pot-lid ;"
"save the pence, and the pounds will take care of
themselves." Be abstemious: "who dainties love
shall beggars prove." Rise early : "the sleepy
foxes catch no poultry ; "plow deep while slug
gards sleep, and you will have corn to sell and
keep." Treat every one with respect and civility :
"everything is gained and nothing lost by cour
tesy "good manners insure success." Never
anticipate wealth from any other source than labor
--especiallynever place dependence upon becoming
the possessor of an inheritance : "he who waits for
dead men's shoes may have to go a long time bare
footed ;" "he who runs after a shadow bath a weari
some race." Above all things, never despair—God
is where be was: "He helps those who truly trust
in Him."

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.-At a meeting of the
Young Men's Christian Association, of this city,
held on Tuesday evening last, the following pre
amble and resolutions, offered by Rev. G. J. Marts,
were unanimously adopted:
%muss, It has pleased God, in the wisdom of
his inscrutable Providence, to remove from- the
scenes of earth our esteemed and beloved brother,
Rev. B. R. Waugh, late member of this associa
tion; therefore,
Resolved, That whilst we deplore and sincerely
mourn the early departure of our esteemed friend
and brother, and deeply sympathize with the be
reaved family of the deceased, in the loss which
they have sustained, we humbly bow in submission
to the will of that All-Wise Providence which has
removed him from our midst.
Resolved, That in the death of Rev. B. R.
Waugh our association has lost an active and faith
ful co-laborer, society an accomplished and amia
ble member, education a firm and intelligent sup
porter, the world a kind benefactor, and the Chris
tian Church one of her brightest ornaments.
Resolvell, That in the early and unexpected re
moval of our departed friend from an extensive
sphere of usefulness, we are reminded of the short
ness and uncertainty of life, the importance of dis
charging, with fidelity, its responsible duties, and
seeking to be, at all times, ready for the solemn
event of our departure from earth.
Resolved, That in the consistent Christian life,
and the peaceful and triumphant death, of our es
teemed fellow-member, we behold the renewing
and elevating influence of the religion of Christ,
and its power to afford consolation and peace in tee
trying and critical hour of death.
Resolved, That copies of these resolutions bo
forwarded to the bereaved family of the deceased,
to the papers of this city, and to the Advocate and
Journal of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
The foflowing resolution was 'also unanimously
adopted by the association :
Resolved, That we respectfully tender our thanks
to the Ron. Wm. 11.. Armstrong for the entertain
ing, chaste and eloquent lecture on Ecypt, recently
delivered by him in the ball of the House of Rep
resentatives, for the benefit of this association.

THE WHITEWASHING SEASON.—The season for
whitewashing having arrived, the following direc
tor making is-door whitewash, which we find in
an exchange, will just come in play. Those who
have used the mixture pronounce it the best ever
produced: For a moderate sized house, say eight
rooms, about thirty-three lbs. Paris white, and one
lb. best white glue are needed. Dissolve the glue
in hot water; also make a thick wash with the
Paris white and hot water, and add the dissolved
glue and sufficient water to make the wash of the
proper consistence. As the mass stiffens over
night, it is better to •mix each morning what is
wanted during the day. If left over night, warm
or add hot water to make it limpid. The Paris
white is chalk cleansed from its impurities, and is
only a very pure whiting—better than is ordina
rily used for making putty. Some else the Cooper
glue, which is considered the . best, but any good
white glue will answer. It costs about fifty cents
per lb. at retail, and the Paris white three cents
per lb. cloth articles can be obtained in almost
every city or village. The above makes an excel
lent whitewash, clean and white and not easily
rubbed off. Its first cost is more than lime wash,
but it is more durable, and for nice rooms it is far
preferable.
How IX is DOBIL-All who have traveled at
night in the cars of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
and many who have not, know that they are
lighted with gas, but few are familiar with the
manner of its introduction into the different ears
on the trains. With a view to enlighten our rea
ders on this subject, we may state that the com
pany have a building adjoining their shops in Al
toona, and convenient to the depot, in which are
twenty receivers, each ten feet long, which will
sustain a pressure of 600 pounds to the square
inch. By the aid of a gas pump, the gas received
from the gas works, in that place, is forced into
the receivers to a pressure of 600 pounds. By
means of pipes it is conducted from these receivers
to the receiver on each ear, which is seven feet six
inches high, fourteen inches in diameter, and
which, with a pressure of from 500 to 600 pounds,
contains sufficient to supply two six-fOot burners,
and one three-foot burner, from sixteen to eigh
teen hours, or ono round trip.
WHAT BECOMES OF THE BUTTER.-A correspon
dent inquires of us, "what becomes of the butter
taken as light in weight by the Clerk of our Mar
ket?" As we have never seen a statement of that
pa-lt of the duties of the Clerk of the Market, we
made inquiries of him, and are informed that the
quantity taken during the past year was quite
small. The clerk retained the buster himself, and.
paid into the City Treasury its equivalent, at the
regular market rates. The ordinance on the sub
ject does not require that the clerk shalt dispose of
the butter, or other articles forfeited as light
weight, in any particular manner, only that its
equivalent in value shall be returned to the City
Treasury. This the Clerk of the Market has done
satisfactorily to the City Council
INVENTION FOR POTTING CABS ON THE TRACK.-
Mr. Williams, master mechanic at the New York
Central railroad shop, in Syracuse, has invented a
simple contrivance, to be carried upon an engine,
by which a locomotive or car can be got on the
track when displaced by a switch or otherwise.—
It is something like what is called a frog, an.] was
used the other day with so much success as to com
mend it to the favor of all who saw it in operation.
The Syracuse Journal states that an engine badly
off the track was got en in twenty minutes by the
application of this machine, while it would have
otherwise required the services of fifteen men four
hours to replace it.
The French are practicing a new method of graft
ing, a knowledge of which may prove valuable to
'American horticulturists, inasmuch as it can be
performed at any season of the year when the
sound matured buds can be bad, whether the sap
is in a flowing state or not. It is peformed by re
moving a small piece of bark and wood, leaving a
smooth and flat surface, to which a similar piece,
containing the bud which is to form the future tree
is fitted, which is sealed over immediately with
collodion. This forms a strong, impervious cuti
cle, which secures a free circulation cf the sap on
the approach of warm weather, an a perfect
union of the peas
DISPOSED TO SECEDE.—The editor of the Lykens
Journal is out this week in an article urging the
residents of the "upper end" to secede. The editor
seems to think that because they have a lawyer in
each of the villages in that end of the county, they
can with safety make the move for secession. From
the tone of the Journal's article we are inclined to
think that his motive for secession lies entirely in
the tomAstone built in our splendid new court house.
That stone and its appurtenances appear to trouble
the Journal man. We would. recommend to him a
dose of Wister's balsam; it might have the effect
to purge him of his irritable complaint.
MURDER Hi READING.—Last Wednesday a col
ored man residing at Reading, in a fit of insanity,
murdered his wife while she was in the act of pre
paring their breakfast. It appears that the man,
Israel Bishop, has for several months past been
afflicted with insanity, and has been confined in
the Barks county almshouse. On Tuesday mor
ning be returned home apparently -in restored
health; but twenty-four hours after, without a
word of warning, he raised a hatchet, and with the
butt end struck his wife, Eliza Bishop, several
blows on the head, sufficient in severity to cause
bar death. The murderer was arrested.
For the Patriot and Union
A VERY FUNNY SENATOR.
MESSRS. EDITORS :—The preconceived idea men
have of death is that it casts a melancholy gloom
over the victim; but such is not the case with my
friend, Senator Yardley. Although in the throes
of political dissolution, each day he becomes more
outrageously funny, until I fear there will be no
such thing as controlling him if the session does
not soon end. I have no fear fer anybody but
himself, since no one but Mr. Yardley laughs at
Mr. Yardley'sjokes ; but think of the terrible con
sequence if one of these double-barreled jokes was
to strike in upon him ! Only Wednesday he got uff
no less than two. One was that the sooner the
Legislature would adjourn the better it would be
for the tax-payers. Some of the Sena tors could
not see the point of this, but Mr. Yardley could,
and he laughed immoderately.
.Later in the day,
I happened in the lobby when a bill was under
consideration, the exact purport of which I could
not understand, but which bad for its object a con
nection of gas-pipe with the Capitol grounds and
a Lutheran church. One of the Senators asked if
provision was made for the congregation to pay
for the gas.
"Certainly not," said the funny Yardley. "You
would not expect the people of Harrisburg to get
anything except at the expense of the State."
This might be a cruel joke, but it lacks an im
portant element—that of truth. It is an open
question, and one that admits of debate, who has
the best bargain—the State or Harrisburg. Cer
tainly, so far as Senators are concerned, and espe
cially such as Mr. Yardley, we do not know who
of the Harrisburgers are especially benefited by
their presence, except it be the dealers in molasses
candy.
So far as patronage is concerned, the coal-oil
patriots of Harrisburg fared indifferently. Mr.
Yardley succeeded in getting a Bucks county man
into office as an assistant doorkeeper, when there
were already four or five more than there were any
use for, and he brought his nephew here from the
same county and crowded him in as a page. So that
Bucks county really gets more at the expense of the
State than 'Harrisburg, through the Senate. lex •
cept the scrubbing women—none of whom could
be imported from Bucks advantageously.
Mr. Y. has an exceedingly keen thirst for office,
but fearing to risk the chances before the people
of Bucks at the ballet-box, he has been several
times at Washington to secure a naval post at Phil
adelphia. If he succeeds, there is not much dan
ger that any of the Philadelphians will live at the
expense of the Government, so far as his office is
concerned, unless his friends and relatives have
not sufficient numerical strength to carry all.
UPrax Esti Pmts.—We clip the following items
from the Lykens Journal, published in the upper
end of this county :
Mr. Thos. Harper has been appointed post mas
ter at Wieon iseo. The office had, for many years,
been kept by Henry Shaefer's family.
The coal business here is becoming much more
brisk. Mr. Thomas has been busily putting the
Lykens Valley mines into first-rate condition, and
is now, or will soon be, prepared to produce a
largely increased amount of coal from them. He
expects, we understand, to produce not less than
200,000 tons from the collieries this season.
The curious have been exercised by the disco
very of the petrified remains of a large snake im
bedded in a large rock, which was sp lit open the
other day at the railroad bridge. From the frag
ments seen, the snake is supposed to have been a
rattlesnake, seven or eight feet in length, and the
puzzling question, of. course, is, bow did he get
there? We have not seen the stone, and are n3t
sure but that we doubt its being a rattlesnake.—
At all events, if it is, be must have had his last
rattle long before the "cold sarpint" cajoled Mo
ther Eve into eating the apple. Col. Foster has
several feet of the snake in his possession.
JUST arrived and for sale, 50 barrels Apples; 50
tubs Prime Lard; 1,000 lbs. Hams, Shoulders and
Dried Beef; 40 dozen Brooms; 100 bushels Pota
toes. Enquire at Boas do Foster's wharf, foot of

PROF. WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIVE
READ WHAT A DISTINGUISHED PHYSICIAN
OF ST. LOUIS SAYS OF IT.
0. J. WooD, Esq.: 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 tilling, and in three weeks time there was
not a gray hair to be found, neither has there been np to
this time*.
After my hair was completely restored, I continuedits
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 Resterative and exhibiting its
effects in my own case. in several Instances I have met
with people that have pronounced it a humbug I 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, but had used some new arti
cle. said to be as good as yours, and selling at abouthalf
the price. I have noticed two or three articles myself
advertised as above, which I have no doubt are humbugs.
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 havepot brains
enough to write an advertisement, as I notic?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 living in New
York.
You are at liberty to publish this or to refer parties to
me. Any communication addressed to me, care box
1920, will be promptly answered. Yours, truly,
JAMES WRITE, M. D.
Warren Springs, Perry Co., Pa., June 7th, 1850.
Prow. Woon : 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 bad 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 Harrisburg paper. 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.—
'" 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 50 years 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 aehild. I consider your preparationagreat
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 you think proper, if it is worth
anything to you. Yours, & e.,
H. H. ETTER.
Bloomington, Ind., July 30th, 1859.
Dear Sir:—l here send you a statement that I think
yea are entitled to the benefit of. I am a resident of
Bloomington and have been for over thirty years. lam
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 unpliant. 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 days
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,
.followin g directfons as nearly as I could. I soon discov
ered the dandruff removed, and my hair : that was fall
ing off in large quantities, was consid.-rahly tightened.
and a radical change taking place in the color. I have
continued to use it till I have used three of your sma'l
bottles, and just begun on the fourth. I have now as
pretty a head of dark brown, or light black hair, as any
Mari e Or as I had in 111 V youthful days when a boy in tue
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 I requen tly say to me, "Butler, wh tre
did you get that line wig?" I 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,
Blocmington, Monroe County, Indiana.
PROF. WOOD'S BAIR RESTORATIVR.—In 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 falling 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 mnst re
liable character. Don't dye till you have tried this Re
storative.—Boston Olive Branch.
Woon's Hain RESTORATIVE. are not in the habit
of puffing every new discovery, for nine cases of ten
they are quack nostrums, but we take great pleasure in
recommending Professor Wood's article to all whose hair
is falling off, or turning gray. Our well-known contri
butor, Finley Johnson, Esq., has. experbatced the bene
fits of its application, andjoins with us in speaking of its
virtues. Let all try it, and bald beads will be as rare as
snow in Summer.—Baltimore Patriot.
WOOD'S HAIR RESTORATIYN.—UnIike most specifies,
this is proved, by unimpeachable evAsnee, 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 artirle 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 u 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, April 22, '59.
A GENUINE 80015.—1 n our capacity as conductor of a
public journal we are called upon to advertise the cure
ails 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 flair
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 hair IS universally known I o
be magical; like lime or guano on exhans , ed land, 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 NOSTRUM —The majority of hair washes, hair
dyes, hair tonics, hair oils, and the nutnberlessprepara
-dons which are now before the public under such ex
travagant,•hyrerbolical and fantastic titles as we see
paraded in show windows and new: paper headings, as
hair preparations, are all humbugs of the first w:,ter;
their real merit, when they possess any, is, that they do
no harm. Ilog's lard, whale oil, lard oil, sweet oil,
scented and colored, make up, when in beautiful wrap
pers, and white flint glass bottles, the costlie4 character
or tonics. and when thus costly, are baptised with some
tri-syllablo 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 comes before
the world without any "highfalutin" Xilophloforium or
any other astoundin: and startling catcb-penny term ; he
simply advertises a Hair Restorative—whatit expr. sees,
precisely—and as a Restorative it acts. Buy Professor
Wood's Hair Restorative, and as you value your scalp,
aye, your very brains, arply nothing else; for it may be
that you will get some worse substance than pertutne3
lard oil on your cranium. bemem6er. Wood'. Re•tura
