Boatman. Housz.—The enterprising proprietor
of the Buehler House has commenced running a
COath to the depots on the arrival of trains ] for the
accommodation of passengers. Such commenda
ble liberality must largely increase the business
of this admirably kept hotel. See advertisement.
FRESH MsextraEL.—ln order to have mackerel
fit to eat, there is no other way than the following:
get them dripping from the brine the evening pre
vious, put them into fresh water and let soak over
night. Many storekeepers unthinkingly make Ha
practice to keep them out of the brine, exposed to
the weather. By this they are rendered hard and
insipid, and scarcely worth eating.
WHAT 15 THE Marran 2—The politiciansof Dau
phin county appear to be behind this year. 'While
the various papers throughout the State are pub
lishing accounts of the tremendous outpouring's of
the people belonging to both parties, Dauphin ap
pears to be reluctant to have any meetings at all.
We have our candidates nilkainated, and why not
bring them before their constituents.
"Then on to the just and glorious strife !
With your swords your freedom shielding.
And resign, if it must be so, even life,
Bat at least die unyielding."
Damemortruc Boays.—During the boating sea
son many of the canal boats receive such damage
that they are condemned, and generally floated
into the different basins, where they remain until
winter, er just before the season for boating open%
when they are out np by persona who remove them
from those places, by converting them into fire
wood and for the iron that is about them. As they
have often been allowed to fill op the basins sea
son after season, we might state that there is a
penalty for allowing them to remain in a basin
longer than yia mouthy.
RARITY OF A TRIM GENTLEMAN—Perhaps a
gentleman is a rarer thing than some of us think
for. Which of us can point Out many such in his
circle; men whose aims are generous, whose truth
is constant, and not only constant in its kind, but
elevated in its degree; whose want of meanness
makes them simple ; who can look the world in the
face with an equal manly sympathy for the great
and the small. We all know now a hundred whose
coats are very well made, and a score who have
eteellent manners, and one at two happy beings,
who are what they call in the inner circle, and
have shot into the very centre of the bull's eye of
fashion ; but of gentlemen how many ?
Tax FRANKLIN RAILROAD.—The reconstruction
of that portion of this road destroyed by the rebels
during their recent friendly visit, has at length
been completed, and on Wednesday last the trains
commenced running as formerly. The importance
of this road was not fully appreciated until its use
was obstructed, and the familiar countenances of
our Greencastle and Hagerstown friends missed
from our streets. The amount of freight carried
over the road is very large ; running through one
of the richest agricultural portions of the county,
immense quantities of grain and other products
are passed over it to the eastern cities, and in re
turn coal, lumber, dry goods and merchandise
generally, are imported by the merchants and
farmers along the line_ The number of passen
gers travelling over it is largely on the increase,
and is now equal to the number passing over any
road in the State. We hope it may be long era
the rebels again interfere with ite operations.
CHAPTER OF Aeon:num.—A little son of James
VCleaky, of Johnstown, was killed on Saturday
last by coal falling on him from a vein that his fa
ther was digging.
Wm. Coulter, of Galitzen, was killed at Dornick
Point by being run over by the train on which he
was supposed to be brakeman. He was mutilated
in such a shocking manner as to kill him almost
instantly.
Michael M'Mahon, a coal miner, who resides in
Cambria City, was badly injured last week by the
premature discharge of a blast in one of the coin.
pany's coal mines.
Daniel Lysott, of Cambria City, met with rather
a severe accident on Thursday last. He was de
ving a horse, attached to a wagon, along the bill
at RhelVurnace, when, getting too near the edge
of the embankment, horse, wagon and driver fell
over. Lysott received a Mete but not dangerous
contusion on the back of the head, which com
pletely loosened the stall).

iSTEW BUILDINGS.—In our travels about town We
notice a great many new buildings being put up.
On the corner of Front and State streets Dr.
Bailey is putting up a fine stonq house, About a
square below, between South and Pine, Mr. Cox
and Mr. Jones, almost adjoining each other, are
about finishing two very handsome dwellings of
brick; between Walnut and Market Mr. Briggs is
finishing another, and the old "Harris Mansion,"
situated between Mary alley and Washington av
enue, recently bought by Gen. Cameron, is going
through a complete remodeling. These buildings
when completed will add considerably to the
already fine appearance of Front street, In Sec
ond street, petween* Pine and Locust, Mr. Snavely
is about finishing a three story brick, in which he
intends opening, shortly after its completion, an
extensive chair and carpet establishment. This
kind of an establishment is much needed here, and
the only wonder is, it was not in existence before.
In Walnut street, Mr. Donner has in progression
a fine three story brick residence. It is the inten
tion of Mr. Donner to open,, some time in the
future, a summer garden in the large yard sur
rounding the building. The event will no doubt
be hailed with joy by the lovers of lager.
In Locust Street, Intwocn Second and Third,
Mr. Knox is putting up a two story frame building.
The market house in Verbeketown, which will
hardly be finished before next summer, is being
built entirely of stone, with the addition of doors
and windows.
These improvements will stand in opposition to
its being made a public sleeping place for beggars
and drunken itragglere_
Verbeketown and West Harrisburg, in 1857,
there was scarcely a house to be seen, but ever
since they have been springing up with such
astonishing rapidity as to claim for them an im
portant share in the affairs of the city.
ARK You ASSESSED ?—Every Democrat should
ittiliiediat6l.7 eta that his name is upon the assess
ment list of his ward, township or election dis
trict.
Neglect of this important matter may deprive
him of Ms vote on the day of the election.
It has been and will be the game of Abolition
assessors, where such have been elected through
out the country, to• neglect to assess Democrats
even when asked to do so, and when they have
promised to do it. With such officials, who have
such ideas of their sworn duty, there is no safety
for a Democratic voter but in seeing leis name en
rolled.
If you can get assessed to-day, do not wait until
to-morrow. When you meet the assessor, close up
the business at once, and if he belongs to the Abs.,
follow him tip and see that your name is rooerdtd.
Let every Democratic voter attend to this mat
ter, and make sure that his own name and that of
his brethren is upon the list. Then on election
day we will have a fair field, no drawbacks and no
gouging.
And that's all we want in order to win. A fair
field and no favor is all the old party has ever
asked of its piebald enemies daring the last forty
years.

To Horse Owners.
Dr. Sweet's Infallible Liniment for Horse
is unrivaled by any, and in all cases of Lameness, ari
sing from Sprains, Bruises or Wrenching, its effect is
magical and certain. Harness or Saddle Galls, Scratch
es, Mange, kc., it will also cure speedily. Spavin and
Ringbone may be easily prevented and cured in their
incipient stages, bit confirmed cases are beyond the
possibility of a radical cure. No case of the kind, how
ever, is so desperate or hopeless but it may be alleviated
by this Liniment, and its faithful application will al
ways remove the Lameness, and enable the horse to
travel with comparative ease.
Every horse owner should have this remedy at band,
for its timely use at the first appearance of Lameness
will effectually prevent those formidable diseases men
tioned, to which all horses are liable, and which render
so many otherwise valuable horses nearly worthless.

There are many preparations sold under the name or
Bitters, put up in quart bottles, compounded of the cheap

per gallon, the taste disguised by Anise or Coriander Seed.
This class of Bitters has caused, and will continue lo

death of The drunkard. By their are the system is kept
continually under the influence of Pacohoiic Stimulants of
the worst kind, the desire for Liquor is created and kept

drunkard's life and death.

AND THE FRIENDS OF SOLDIERS.
We call the attention of all having relations or friends
in the army to the fact that "HOOFL AND'S German Bit
tors " will cure nine-tenths of the diseases induced by ex
posures and privations incident to camp life. In the lists,
Iputilothed almost daily in the newspapers, on the arrival
of the ilck, it wi I he noticed that a very large proportion
are suffering from debility. Every case of that kind can
be readhy cured by Hootland•s German Bitters. We have
no hesitation in stating that if these Bitters were freely
used among our soldiers. hundreds of 4y might be eeneil
that otherwise would be lost.
The proprietors are daily receiving thankful letters from
suff , rers in the army and hospitals, who have been restored
to health by the use of these Bitters, sent to them by their
friends.
