LAWS ItacEnns.—The receipts of the New
York Central Railroad for September exceed a
saillion of dollars, and the gross earnings of the
road, for the year ending September, .are in the
neighborhood of $11,000,060, against $9,850,827
for 1862. The surplus or undivided earnings re
maining ever from last year amounts to :,01 0 , 205 ,
which, added to the earnings of the present year,
gives the company over $4,000,000 to disburse
among the steekholders_ The Central is a "big
thing," and appears to be after the great Pennsyl
vania Central "right mart."

place she bad been working ? ) and has not since
been heard of. The missing girl is about fourteen
years of age, has short a üburn hair, and blue eyes.
Her mysterious disappearance awl doubtful fate
have deeply affected the mind of her mother. Any
information in regard to her whereabouts or con

in Susquehanna street, and the informant liberally
rewarded.
PHILADELPHIA AND ERIE RAILBOAD.—Change of

elsewhere, it will be seen that the summer time
table en this road has been changed. Passenger
trains northward will hereafter leave this point as
follows Mail train, 1.15 p. m. Express train, 3-00
a. to.
This great line, tel►versing the northern and
northwestern portion of the &ate, is now under
the auspices of the Pennsylvania railroad com
pany, and is rapidly approaching completion. It
is now in use from Harrisburg to Emporium, a
distance of 195 miles, on the Eastern Dleision,
and from Sheffield to the terminus at Erie, a dis
tance of 78 miles, on the Wester Division. Pas
senger and freight trains run from Philadelphia
and Baltimore to Lock Haven, without change of
ears, and the express trains are provided with ele
gant sleeping ears.
AGGRZGAt& Vora or ilia STATE.—The total
number of votes cast for Governor at the late elec
tion in this State was 523,225, being an increase of
88,475 over 1262, when , the number east wee 434,
'5O. Of the entire number, 253,775 votes were
polled for Woodward, and 269,118 for Curtin. If
the Democrats are "foss" and traitors, as stigma.
tined by Stanton, Forney and other incorruptibles,
what a snug little band there is of them ! Two
hundred and fifty-three thousand seven hundred
and seventy-five "traitors" in the single State of
Pennsylvania! They would fill every bastile on
the continent, and still leave lit (margins larger
than Meade's army. It is alarming. Tice "gov
ernment" ought to do something for this thing.
The above figures are complete, with the excep
tion of Cameron county, the returns from which
bad not been received at last advices. It is inclu
ded in the Wok) at the figures of last year, viz:
Dem., 136; Rep., 196.
THEATRICAL.-A crowded house greeted the
Harrisburg Thespian Society on the oeeasion of
their second performance, at Brant's Hall, on Sat
urday night. The attendance of so large and
respectable an audience must have boon gratifying
to the gentlemen engaged in the enterprise, same
of whom entered into it not without misgivings as
to its success. But ail such fears may now be dis
missed, as the Thespian is safely launched upon
the tide of successful experiment, and, if properly
piloted, will weather through the coming season.
All the actors acquitted themselves well. Con
sidering the fact that the stage has heretofore been
terra incognita to most of them, the acting may
be pronounced as superior. In the "Golden Far
mer," Mr. Jester gave a fair rendering of that
unfortunate character. Mr. Taylor as "Jemmy
Twiteher" was "the right man in the right piano."
His personation of that roost-robbing and sadly
neglected rascal, who, like Dickens' "Magwitcb,"
had been "Melted and miffed and done everything
to, except hanged,' until he started with apprehen
sion at the rustle of every leaf, was rich and
laughable. He will excuse us for saying that he
is an excellent villain. Mr. Morton did full justice
to the ludicrous detainer of "Hammer," Whig
in it an excellent field for the disptay of his comic
powers, and "bringing the house down" fre
quently. In "Old Mob," Mr. Diffuff gave a good
specimen of the highwayman and desperado; his
voice, dress and manner were well suited to his
part, Miss Llewellyn as "Elizabeth," a n d alga in
her recitation of the poem, acquitted herself with
discrimination and skill, and was frequently ap
plauded. The parts of "Mrs. Hammer" and
"Harvey" were well sustained by Miss Howard
and Mr. Kimball respectively.
While WA Neighing to sesame the °Mee of arida
or censor, we would suggest to some of the actors
—two of them, at least—that the effect of their
efforts would be greatly enhanced by a more ease
ful regard to pronunciation. Some of the beat
passages in the plays were quite lost upon the
audience by reason of the indistinct articulation
of the speakers, and those in the back part of the
house were deprived of whole sentences by the
low tone in which they were uttered. We hope
that an improvement in this regard will be mani
fest at the next performance, which will be given
some evening this week.
INDICATIONS or A SIIIIESE WINTMR. The
weather prophets prediet a severe winter; each one
resting his prediction upon certain supposed infal
lible signs. The principal signs manifest this
year are the movements of Sahel and migratory
birds early in the season, end the unusual care of
amphibious animals to provide against cold. It ie
found that in Minnesota and the northwestern
States the brook trout are /slaving the shallow
itreams and breaking to the deep pools much ear
lier than usual, and that the muskrats are fortify
ing their hybernating habitations against the in
tense cold weather by another thick layer of mad.
In the east it is discovered that the wild fowl are
streaming southward unusually early this season.
The husks on the corn are alto thicker t h an 1181 / 81
These are regarded as almost infallible indications
of a severe winter. •
There have been weather prophets since the
days of Jonas, each one of whom bade particular
sign by which to foretell the seasons. Most of
them have been humbugs, only bitting the mark
once in a dozen attempts. These popular signs
might have worked well in former times, but "all
signs fail now-a.days"—exeept lager beer signs.
Yet it is undoubtedly true that as all-wise Provi
dence has gifted his irrational creatures with an
instinct which enables them to provide suitably
against seasons of unusual intensity, and this in
stint may extend even to the vegetable kingdom.
And, although phenomena indicative of cold
weather have frequently been •observed of some
one species of animal or plants, yet not followed
by cold weather, It has hardly ever been known
that so many concurrent signs of long and bitter
cold weather failed or proved deceptive.
We are therefore inclined to accept the vatic!.
nations of the weather prophets this time. If
they eboubi prove true r the ignorant, confound.
lug effect with cause, will believe the cold weather
was caused by the wild ducks and the musk-rats
and the corn husks, whereto their instinctive pre
parations were but the effect of the coming cold.
If proud man was but gifted with like unerring
instincts, how nicely could he compute the met,
amount of coal to lay in for the coming season
Ti $3OO EXEMPTION.—I; is said on good au
thority that there is talk in military circles of an
early repeal of one of the sections of the con
scription act—that which provides for temporary
exemption by the payment of three hundred dol
lars. This will be urged in December, and it is
not improbable that when the next draft is made,
should the quotas not be made up by volunteering,
exemption by the payment of money will be im
possible.
There has been a great misoonoeption in regard
tb the money raised by the operation of the late
draft, which has led to so general a belief that
volunteering would exclusively be resorted to. It
is supposed that the Government will have a large
fund from the exemption fees, and that it can dis
pose of it in no other way than in offering bone
pee to voluntecers. This money, however, is said
to be already disposed of. Part of it is used
. in
buying up able-bodied negroes in Maryland, and
the same scheme it in said will be brought into
play in other States wherever else it can be ap
plied. This will soon Wim np the eight or tea mil
lions which it is supposed the draft will realize.
The other use for the fared is in the offer of boun
ties to veterans to re-enlist. The Government is
naturally anxious to secure all the old soldiers
whose term of service expires during the present
year. It will thus be seen that no surplus fund is
created by the late draft which can be available
for volunteering purposes.
A (loon Movw—The Councils of Philadelphia
have passed a resolution to give each man that
volunteers under the President's last call a bounty
of $lOO. This, in addition so the liberal bounty
and pay of the government, will make a very cow
furtable little sum ? and will no doubt stimulate en
listments to such a degree as to exonerate the city
from another draft. The example is worthy of
imitation. Few men feel like leaving their fami
lies with the prospect of a bard winter before them,
but thousands would cheerfully go if they could
first see floe° of their own household comfortably
provided for before enlisting. The necessity of
fighting want from their own door being removed,
they could then enter the lists against the foes of
their country, untrammeled by anxiety and care.
If our citizens would avoid the calamity of ano
ther draft, it would bo well for them to take some
measures toward increasing the bounty of volun
teers. The next draft will be full as large in our
city as the last one. It would, therefore, even in
a pecuniary point of view, be a stroke of good finan
cial policy for our city an horities to adopt liberal
measures for stimulating enlistments. We trust
they will take some action in the matter at an
tarty day.
PRESBYTERIAN SYNODS —Synods of both branch
es of the Presbyterian Church met in Washington,
D. C., last week. That of the New School—the Sy
nod of Pennsylvania—embraces the Presbyteries
of Wilmington, the Third and Fourth of Philadel
phia, and those of Harrisburg and the District of
Columbia. The number of churches represented
is between eighty and ninety, containing probably
fifteen thousand communicants. The Rev. E. F.
Adams, of Philadelphia, preached the opening ser
mon, and the Rev. William A ikman,of Wilmington,
Del., was elected Moderator. The members of this
Synod called at the White House in a body on
Thursday last, and paid their respects to the Pre
sident, and tin 'visitors retired well pleased.
The other body is the Synod of Baltimore, of the
Old School persuasion. This Synod represents
five Presbyteries, viz; Paltimore, Carlisle, Win
chester, Lewes (Eastern Shore of Elarylar), and
Presbytery of the Potomac. These contain an ag
gregate of one hundred and twenty ministers, one
hundred and thirty-five churches, and twelve thou

Tag BOUNTIES OF VETERANS AND RAW Rm..
caurre.—A misunderstanding seems to exist in
reference to the amount of bounty paid to veterans
and raw recruits respectively. A recent order from
the Provost Marshal General provides that vete
rans re-enlisting shell receive $402 bounty, while
raw recruits shall receive $302. It would - appear,
however, that this order bee reference only to the
volunteer service, and not to the regular service
as we see that Capt. Stetson, recruiting officer at
this post for the 15th U. S. Infantry, is authorized
to pay a bounty of $402 to ALL recruits enlisting
into that regiment. The 15th is in the Army of
the Cumberland, and was formerly a part of Gen.
Rosecrans' body guard. All persons enlisted at
Capt. Stetson's rendezvous, first floor of the Bueh
ler House (fronting Second street,) are sent to
comfortable quarters at Fort Adams, Rhode Island.
Lunen BY FLUID EXPLOSION.—Mrs. Weaver,
of Lancaster, was seriously injured on Thursday
evening last by the explosion of a fluid lamp.
She had lit the lamp, and for the purpose of in
creasing the brilliancy of the flame, turned it
bottom upwards, when the tube dropped out, ig
niting the fluid, exploding the lamp, sad envelop
ing the lady in flames. Her screams brought neigh
bors to her assistance,who succeeded in extinguish
ing the Homes. She wag badly burned about the
hands and arms. The use of this fluid is bath
dangerous and foolish, now that carbon oil, a safer
and better illuminator, is cheap and plenty.
WONDeRFUL WII&THER IN Mt Wasv.—A dispatch
from St. Louis, dated on Friday last, states that
one of the beeriest storms 6Voll , known in that re.
gion prevailed there on Thursday, ending with a
elrar freezing night. The mercury on Friday
morning at 9 o'clock stood at twenty-four degrees,
and remained below the. freezing point all day !
This is a degree of temperature seldom reached iQ
mid-winter. The storm extended over a large por
tion of Missouri and Illinois, and over six inches
of snow fell. Ne such remarkable change bee
heretofore been known in "that latitude.
M 05103 ARO , DURYSIDE.—On the nonagon of a
magic lantern exhibition recently, the scene of the
Children of Israel crossing the Red Sea was given,
and the small children were asked if they could
