THE DAILY PATRIOT AND %HOE may be had at
Jack's Book Store, corner of Third and Market
streets.
One of the most thrilling incidents connected
with the military operations of the day took place
at Camp Curtin on Saturday afternoon. A number
of persons were engaged in raising the Stars and
Stripes over the main building, used as the head
quarters of the officers, and just as everything was
in readiness, and the men bad seized the halyard
to run up the flag, a large Eagle came from no one
knew where, HOVERED OVER THE FLAG, AND
SAILED MAJESTICALLY OVER THE EN
CAMPMENT WHILE THE FLAG WAS RUN
UP! Thousands of eyes were upturned in a mo
ment, and as the noble bird looked down, the
cheers of three thousand men rent the air ! Never
was such ovation paid , tb e "Imperial Bird of Jove."
It lingered for a few minutes, apparently not a
particle frightened at the terrific noise—then clea
ving the air with his pinions he disappeared in the
narmors AND SIJS4- R. R. horizon.

DEPARTURE OF Taoors.—Three regiments, armed,
equipped, uniformed and provided with ball cart
ridge left in the North Central for Baltimore be
tween 11 and 1 o'clock on Saturday night.
PATRIOTIC Pincus:R.—Twenty of the members of
the Hope Fire Company of this city have already
enlisted, and ten have signed the roll of a new
company now organizing. Harrisburg, notwith
standing the great want of military spirit in times
of peace, will furnish her quota - of men, probably
not less than three hundred, which, for the popu
lation, may be set down as pretty good.
WAR TERMS.-A casemate is a stone roof to a
fort, made sufficiently thick to resist the force of
cannon balls, and a casemate gun is one which is
placed under a casemate.' A barbette gun is one
which is placed on tie top of the fortification_ An
embrasure is the hole or opening through which
guns are fired from fortifications. Loop holes are
openings in walls to fire musketry through.
Ennou&—ln our report in Saturday's paper we
set down the Citizen's Guard, of Johnstown, at 65
men, when the fact is, they bad N.
We also stated that a collection was being taken
up for the purchase of revolvers for the Cameron
Guard. The design is also to purchase them for
the State Capital Guard.
Errors of this kind can scarcely be avoided in
times like these, when general excitement rules
the hour, and should be overlooked.
A FLAG ON THE DEpor.—CoL T. A. Scott has
had erected on one of the towers of the depot of
the Pennsylvania railroad a towering flag stair,
from which the stars and stripes will float just as
soon as the flag can be obtained. The Pennsylva
nia Railroad Company is both loyal and patriotic,
and by carrying troops and munitions of war over
their road free of expense are contributing an im
mense amount of money for the maintenance of the
Union—probably as much as the tonnage tax
would have amounted to for several years.
VIOLATION OP CITY ORDINA.NCE.—Warrants were
issued on Sahli/lay for William Brightbill, J. Haus,
William Rummel, Abram Bates, Jacob Misb, M.
Grisman and J. M'Cormick, for violation of city
ordinance, in leaving their horses stand unhitched
during market hours. The penalty is a dollar fine
and the costs of prosecution, which they will all
be compelled to psi, as the Mayor has determined
to show no more mercy to people after they have
been duly notified. That is perfectly right.—
Where in the wee of having ordinances if they are
to be violated with impunity whenever people feel
inclined to do so ?
A PUGNACIOUS DARNEL—A darkey from the
country, probably from Clearfield, or some other
county where darkies are few and "gassy," came
down the river on a raft, and being flush, he in
vested his spondulieks in Columbiad whisky. A
little after dinner he went to the depot to see the
soldiers come in, and while there he took it into
his head to whip somebody. Be pitched into a
couple of soldiers, who, like himself, were a little
limber in the knee joints, and being a stalwart
gumbo, be would have whipped them both but for
the interference of officer Fleck, who was obliged
to level Mr. Darkey in order to secure him, after
which he landed him in jail.
TRH Sawssan.—Yesterday was a Sabbath like
those they had daring the Revolution. Every
place of business was closed, but the tap of the
drum, the heavy tramp of the military, and the
music of brass bands were heard in the crowded
streets all day. It is something more than twenty
two years since we witnessed a similar scene in the
streets of Harrisburg. We have reference to the
"Buck Shot War." Then the troops were brought
here to aid in treating an election as if it had not
been held—now they are brought here to rendez
vous preparatory to chastising a people who are
endeavoring to treat a government as if it only ex
isted in a name.
SINGULAR Comeimmes.—On the 19th day of
April, Mb, there was organized a company in the
town of Acton, Massachusetts, that took part in
the battle of Lexington, and thus commenced the
War of the Revolution.
That organization has been kept up since that
time to the present. The company were in the
Brigade that arrived in Philadelphia from Massa
chusetts, on Thursday evening, and proceeded to
Washington. It was attacked in Baltimore by a
mob. Three of the Massachusetts soldiers were
killed and many wounded.
Thus American loyal blood has been shed on
the 19th of April, 1861, on the anniversy of the
organization of the Company, attacked by a cow
ardly mob.
Canamtrurr Norns.—A good deal of counterfeit
money—both coins and notes—is now in circula
tion, and in these times of general settlement, it
passes rapidly from hand to hand without detec
tion. Bogus gold dollars, and silver quarters and
dimes are most common, but the loss on them is
proportionately small. A very dangerous counter
feit is that of the $5 bill of the Western Bank of
Philadelphia. Scarcely any one but a profes
sional dealer in money can detect them. These
notes were put in circulation by Minnie Price and
his gang. They resemble the genuine in every
particular, and the safest plan is to refuse them
entirely. Counterfeit $2 bills, with a vignette of
a forest scene, man chopping wood, female on the
right ens, and coat of arms on the left, purporting
to be on the Farmer's Batik of New Jelsey, at Mt.
Holly, were put in circulation in Philadelphia last
week. This bank bas never issued $2 notes. The
Nalionat Bank Note Reporter says that the plate
above described has been altered to !several banks,
is well engraved, and is likely to deceive tolerable
good judges of paper money.
A THRILLING INCIDENT AT CAMP
CURT IN I
AN AMERICAN EAGLE SURVEYS THE CAMP?
In the days of the Roman Republic this would
have been looked upon as a glorious omen, and we
do not see why we should not look upon it as such
now.
Never was an incident looked upon with more
favor. It sent a patriotic thrill through every
heart that witnessed it, and every man seemed to
be animated with the deepest feeling of patriotism
and devotion to the flag of our Union.
ARRIVAL OF Thoors.—Sinco our last the arrival
of troops has been large—and they are so scat
tered, and• the confusion is of such a nature, as to
render it impossible for us at this time to get any
thing like an accurate list.
A company from Scranton, and another from
Wilkesbarre, numbering 175 men, arrived on Sat
urday. Also, a company from Sunbury, and an
other full company from Carlisle.
In the afternoon of Saturday nearly a full regi
ment arrived from Montgomery county : under the
command of Col. Ilartranft, of Norristown. They
are all fine looking men, and made a most impo_
sing appearance. -
Late at night the Reading train, which was two
hours behind time, arrived, having on board up_
wards of a thousand men—companies from North
ampton, Lehigh, Berks and Lebanon. It was im
possible to get the names of the companies, or the
number of each, yesterday.
A company from M'Veytown, two from Centre
county, one from Huntingdon, and several from
Pittsburg or vicinity, also arrived in the course
of the night, making, exclusive -of the Ohio com
panies, and not counting those that left, about four
thousand at Camp Curtin. This number, of course,
was largely increased last evening and this morn
ing.
MAYOR'S OFFICE,
HARRISBURG, April 20, 1861. I t
As Mayor of the city of Harrisburg, I feel it to
be my duty, in the present critical condition of
public events, to impress upon all loyal citizens
the importance of observing moderation in their
speech and'actions. In the inflammatory state of
the popular mind, all exciting topics should be sup
pressed as far as practicable. An ill-advised word
may prove the unfortunate cause of much trouble
to our community. The baleful cloud which now
hangs over us ought not to be blackened by any
rashness on the part of any class of our people.
Let quietness prevail, and let every effort be wade
to restrain and direct into a proper channel the
enthusiasm which glows in every patriotic heart.
To this end, I urge upon ail who are engaged in
the sale of liquors to be exceedingly cautions to
whom they sell. Whilst it is at all times against
the law to furnish intoxicating drink to a minor
or to any one who may already be under its influ
ence, it would be now doubly criminal, because of
the serious and disastrous consequences it might
lead to. Let those concerned in this traffic exer
cise a proper care in this particular, in- order to
preserve this community from fiat, bloodshed and
confusion.
The citizens may feel assured that more than
ordinary vigilance shall be exerted to prevent any
encroachments upon the public during the present
exciting period.
WM . . K. KEPNER, Mayor. '
DEATH OF De.vm SMITH.—On Saturday morning
David Smith departed this life at his residence in
Fourth street. Few men in this community were
better known to every man, woman and child, than
Mr. Smith. He has been a clerk in the Post Office
for upwards of a quarter of a century, and although
a Democrat, he would have been retained by Mr.
Bergner. In consequence of Mr. Smith's long ex
perience, and as ability which amounted almost to
instinct, to tell at a glance who a letter was inten
ded for, he has for some years acted in the capa
city of delivery clerk. As age, sickness and infir
mity crept upon him, he beeama petulant, and very
crusty, to the terror of children and the annoyance
of strangers. Those who knew him, however, were
disposed to overlook these infirmities. He was re
garded as a good citizen, and an honest man, and
has no doubt gone where a crown is laid up for all
who do their whole duty to God and man in this
world.
Hie funeral is to take place this aftegnoon.
Tun Onro MooPs.--About 500 soldiers from
Ohio arrived on Saturday morning and were quar
tered at Brant's Hall. About 2,000 more arrived
a little after 12 o'clock yesterday morning, and are
quartered at the Capitol. Among the last are the
Rover Guards, the Lafayette Guards and the
Zouaves—the crack companies of Cincinnati—and
two fine companies trom Cleveland and Dayton.—
The Buckeye boys, take them all in all, are as fine
a body of men as will he in the army, The Ports
mouth company is under command of Captain
Bailey, a graduate of West Point, and Lieutenants
Raynor and Kinney. They look like men emi
nently fit for service, and they will not belie their
looks if occasion offers. The Columbus Vedettes,
Captain Thrall, is also a fine company. But there
is no use in making invidiqns distinctions—they
are all our fancy painted them—and that is be
cause they arc nearly all the descendants of Penn
sylvanians.
Finn Amass.—An alarm of fire' was caused on
Saturday afternoon by the burning of a chimney
somewhere in the vicinity of Third and Pine
streets.
An alarm was raised on Saturday night about
ten o'clock, the cause of which we could not trace.
As we have quite enough food for excitement at
present, it is to be hoped that no person will be
guilty of the miserable business of raising false fire
alarms. The police on duty should take pains to
watch close, and arrest any one gaily of such stu
pid folly_
At a meeting of Council, held on Saturday eve
ning last, the following resolutions were unani
mously adopted: •
Resolved, That the Common Council of the oity
of Harrisburg appropriate the sum o f fi ve th ousan d
dollars to be used for the support of those vol
unteering to sustain the honor of our flag.
Roolved, That the Ordinance Committee be in
structed to memorialize the Legislature for autho
rity to levy an additional tax of two mills on the
dollar, to meet the above appropriation.
A FAITHFUL Don.—There is a dog at Camp Cur
tin who followed his master from Pottsville, tra
veling after the ears. His master left last eve
ning, placing his faithful friend in charge of a
man to take him home.
Mons TBOOPB.—Yesterday afternoon there was
another arrival of troops by the Reading Railroad,
numbering nearly a thousand. Four companies
were from Schuylkill county alone,
For the Patriot and Union.
" NEHENIIAII” ON THE STATE OF
TUE COUNTRY.
When inflammation violent
With pain our bodies rack,
Phlebotomy is the only cure
That saves from the attack.
So with our body politic;
The fever's raging flood
Will soon now be abated
By a copious flow of blood.
And if all secession traitors,
With the Abolition crew,
Could be left alone together
To put each other through
Until the fight was ended,
Like the famed Kilkenny oats,
And nothing left of either.
Except some tails and hats,
Then this national phlebotomy
Would relieve us all from pain,
And a sound and healthy Government.
We non should have again.
Trta VOLUNTEER FUND.-At an informal meeting
of the subscribers to the military fund, authorized
to be raised at the meeting of the 16th of April,
1861, held on Saturday, April 20, it was
Reeolved, That owing to the resignations in the
original committee, all of whom have volunteered
to serve their country, the following organization
shall take its place :
I. That William R. Kepner, Mayor 'of the city,
Leander N. Ott,, Chat'les C. Rawn, Rudolph F.
Kelker, William Bostick and Frederick Trace be
acommittee to have a general superintendence of
the fund to be raised in this city for the use of the
families of those who volunteered, and that they
have authority to receive and disburse funds con
tributed from any other part of the county, and also
to have a thorough superintendence of the whole
receipt and expense, which are to be published
quarterly in the newspapers, for public informa
tion.
11. That Jacob C. Bomberger, Cashier of the
Mechanic's Bank, be Treasurer of the fund, and
that he be authorized to receive subscriptions to it.
111. That committees of collectors from each
ward be appointed to visit the citizens and request
contributions: to consist of
Ward 1. David Crawford, C. 0. Zimmerman.
Ward 2. Weidner W: Boyer, William R. Bell.
Ward 3. John L. Speel, Robert L. Muench.
Ward 4. Daniel D. Boas, Richard IL Adams.
Wards 5 and 6. Ald. J. L. 'Hutchinson, Joseph
Strominger.
IV. That the committees be furnished with pro
perly authenticated books of subscription, and
that they proceed at ones to discharge their duty.
V. That the Commissioners of Dauphin county
be requested to make subscription to this fund of a
liberal amount, so that they may assist, by their
official action, to make the contributions for this
patriotic object fully equal on all classes of citizens,
as representations from all classes are in the levy
already enrolled for the defence of this glorious
Union.
VI. That all those who desire to contribute be
requested to do so at once, without putting the
collecting committee to the loss of time involved
in making two calls where one should answer
when it is "for our country."
VII. That all the newspapers in the county, En
glish and German, be requested to publish these
proceedings. A. BOYD liouturost, Chairman.
The following gentlemen have eubecribed to the
fund :
A. B. Hamilton, $5O Jno. Haldeman, $5O
George Bergner, 50 J. C. Kunkel, 50

James WOornstick 50 Rud. F, Fielder, 50
Val. Hummel, 50 Wm. Doak, 50
As further subscriptions are made they will be
noticed.
POLTCE.—The lock-np has been well filled for the
last few nights—as well as during the day—very
few, however, were committed to jail.
On Saturday, Jackson S. Smith, Anthony Wil
liams, Jacob Jones, Wrn. Casey and James Vogan,
(all colored) Were arrested and brought before the
Mayor, for "corner lounging." They were all fined
the usual penalty. Two of the number were short
of funds and were committed to jail. In a very
short time their friends came to the rescue, and
paid the coca imposed, when they were discharged
from custody.
Yesterday morning a colored man named Sam
Williams was arrested on complaint of George
Bell for stealing a pair of boots out of a carpet
bag at one of our hotels. Ball is also a colored
man and servant of Col. Stambaugh, who has left
the city with his company. The boots were found
on defendant's feet. Ho was committed to answer.
TosnuTztawKnco.—Two fellows named John
Bates and Nelson Malson, at an early hour on
Saturday morning effected an entrance into the
domicile of John Minnich, in the Third ward,
by battering in the door. Malson was armed
with a tommyhawk, with which he threatened
to lay open Minnich's skull. The latter being
opposed to this uncivilized mode of warfare in
these days of Minnie rifles and patent carbines,
swore ouk a warrant against the offenders.—
Malson was taken yesterday, and lodged in
quod.
llovEmravr of TROOPS.—Last evening one
thousand of the troops from Camp Portia left
for Philadelphia. It was expected that the
Ohio troops would move in the same direction
in the course of the night. At the time we go
to press fifty car loads of troops from Illinois
and Indiana are momentarily expected.
All the available resources of the Pennsylva
nia railroad company, which are second to
none in the world, have been placed at the dis
posal of the Government.
VACANCIES.—There will be a number of vacan
cies in the extra session of the Legislature. Len.
Bartholomew, General Wilson and J. J. Patterson
bold commissions in the army, and Mr. Palmer
had intended taking his departure for Buenos
Ayres this week.
NEW STORE.—Good News for the Ladies,—This
morning will be opened at the corner of Walnut
and Second streets, in Shoemaker's row, a largo
assortment of fancy and staple dry goods, which
will be sold at prices to suit purchasers. As the
stock must be reduced, in view of the stringency
of the times, the subscriber offers Traveling Dress
Goods at 61 cents per yard, which are really worth
10 gents; also, excellent quality Muffling, Bleached
and Unbleached, at 5 and 6 cents a yard; first-rate
white and black Stockings, at 61 cents a pair.—
The ladies had best call, examine, and convince
themselves. Delaines and Challies for 12 cents—
worth 18 cents. Carpets of every style and qual

THE TAVERNS OPENER.-A consultation was held
yesterday by Gov. Curtin, Mayor Kepner and Judge
Pearson, who decided to permit the taverns and
lager shops to sell to soldiers not intoxicated. The
reason of this is obvious. It will not do to cut off
men short who have been in the habit of taking
liquor daily for any considerable time. Notwith
standing the permission to open, we are pleased
to notice the fact that there was little or no drunk
enness.
HAVERSACKS.—NearIy all the ladies of Harris
burg were engaged yesterday in the manufacture
of haversacks far the army. several thousands
were made at the cotton mill alone, where a large
number of sewing machines were at work. One
haversack goes to war manufactured by a little
son of ours not yet seven years of age, who ac
quired the art of sewing without instruction.
REGULARS EN ROUTE.—Yesterday afternoon six
car loads of regulars, from Fort Ridgely, Minne
rota, arrived from the West. They remained in the
oars, and left for Philadelphia in the night, from
which place they will be shipped to Annapolis in
tt vessel already prepared for them.
A Snanow ox THE Mtgs.—Rev. Mr. Cookman
preached a sermon last evening in the Locust
Street Methodist Church on the Union. The
church was crowded to its utmost capacity, and
the sermon was. one which will long, be remem
bered by all who heard it.
STRE.VGTEf OF IfIE CoMPANICS.—YearIy every
company that boa arrived here has had more than
the requisite number of men. From this excess
alone, four companies have been formed, besides
filling the companies that lacked the compliment.

ONLY ONE DOLLAR EACH !
10,000 BEAUTIFUL STEEL PLATE ENGRAVING
OP THE LORD'S PRA vER FOR SALE I
VALUABLE PROPERTY GIVEN AWAY!
The idea of representing the LORD'S PRAYER by an
engraving, and of ornamenting and arranging it in such
a manner as to produce at once a model of neatness and
taste, was conceived and carried out by ORMSBY, the
celebrated Bank-note Engraver of New York city. It
commences with exquisitely executed words of "Oua
PATnatt.n and then follow in succession the other parts
of the Prayer, every phrase of which is engraved in the
most elegant and tasteful manner. Near the bottom of
the picture is a superbly executed head of OUR SAVIOUR,
and encircling the upper part of the engraving are ten
angels, each bearing one of the TEN COMMANDMENTS.
The engraving has received the most unqualified praise
from the religious community, as there is nothing of a
sectarian character about it, having been recommended
by clergymen of all denominations. As an ornament it
is one of the most splendid ever published in this country,
and is destined to take the place of a poorer class of
engravings. The size of the plate is 20x28 inches, and
is unquestionably the cheapest engraving ever offeredin
this country.
Who that loves Art—who that delights to study& fine
engraving—who that would possess a beautiful Picture
—who that would receive the impressions which such a
work is calculated to impart, would fail to secure a copy
when the price is only ONE DOLLAR, with the chance of
securing for that sum in addition a permanent home or
another valuable Gift?
As a work of art this valuable and beautiful engraving
is worth more than the dollar asked fot it, as will readiily
be acknowledged on an inspection of it; but the
subscribers intend to make a Gift Distribution to
purchasers of the engraving of valuable presents, as
follows :

A Gift worth from 50 cents to $500.00 with each En

When the Engravings are all sold, a meeting of the

when the Gifts named above will be distributed in such
manner as the purchasers may determine—the purchasers
selecting a committee of disinterested persons to make
the awards in such manner as they may designate.
