All of a sudden, Mrs. tEilen Wood an
English norefot, has followed" the example
of Lord Byron, who woke up one morning,
and found himself famous." This was alter
the publication of ' Cnilda Harold." at3d
Mrs. Wood's celebrity dates from the ap
pearance of a novel called " East Lynne,"
which we noticed, with high commendation
a few months ago. The book got read. spo
ken abont, praibed, and purchased in En
gland, pnd just when public excitement
about it had somewhat subsided, out came
the TtmeJ with a long and laudatory' cri
tique, which, ve learn -without purprise,
immediately caused a demand for a new
edition, so completely, does' thnt newspaper
influence the mind . of Englandi - The read
ing world knows nothing to this hoorof Mrs.
Wood except that ehe had written " East
Lynne.". Mrs. Wood has jast completed
another story, called " The Earl's Heirs ; ' a
Tale of Domestic Life," not yet published,
in England, , which .T. :B.r Peterson and
Brothers, of this city, have just published,
and we must confess that, for many years
we have not snen o much evidence ol con
strucuve power, the want of which consti- j
lutes the-leading 'deficiency of 'nearly -ail
our modern novelists, Dickens.: and Tback
ery not excepfed. The story is essentinlly
dramatic, with character well develop-ed, i
j but its perfect construction constitutes its -,
gteatest merit- In f'East Ly tine," one ot-l
the leading incidents (an adulterous wife !
watching in disguise over her own legiti
mate off-pringf - was evidently suggested
by something similar in The Admiral's
Daughter," by Mrs. Marsh; but in 4The
Earl's Heirs" the reader is reminded of
nothing that he has ever read before. The
story is as probable as ' most of the narra
tives in the newspapers, but the' romantic
element is also thrown in. We are confi
dent that novel readers, a very large clas,
will take tjiis story to their heart. It ha no
ordinary merit, and though the denouement
is Tery natural, the reader wiii be sharp in
deed who can anticipate it until quite close
to the last pages. If Messrs Peterson have
any other novefs by Mrs. Wood, or by any
one else, even half as good as this, we re.
commend their early publication, for good
novels are scarce.of late. The price of "1 he
Earl's Heirs," is but fifty cents a copy, and
is sent free of postage by the publishers to
anyone on receipt of that amount. Phila
delphia Pre$.
Tbain's Union Speeches have j'ist been
published by T. B. Peterson & Brothers,
Philadelphia, and were delivered byGeorze
Francis Train, in England, during the pres
ent American War, where he has been do
ing good service to the Union cause ever
since the outbreak of the rebellion. These
speeches should be read-by hi countrymen
with as great interest and profit, as they
were listened to by the English ol all class .
es, who crowded the places of public as
sembly whenever he was announced for a
speech. They will be loond to be patrioti?,
truthtelling; and amusing The wit, iuvec
tive, argument, and general ' .iiamnsM of
Mr. Train, have all been aroused in !e'eiice
of the Union. In England he h nct lj
confronted exile Secession ist & prejudiced
Englishmen, who hated our Republican in-
stitutions. His speeches are lull ot fire and i
pure Union sentiments, and a perusal of
therh will be enjoyed by every true a-.d '
loyal American." VVe may eafely predict
their success in a collected and cheap form.
Mr. Train's eloquenee is entirely wi ctneiii
he is the founder of the spread eagle
school of oratory and it may truly be siid,
V none bit himself can be his parallel He
has done good service to the Union cause
by his ability, loyalty, and boldness, and
these speeches should be read by every per
son in the land Price Twenty-five cenis a
copy only; or five copies for one dollar, and
sent to any one to any place, free of post

we would respectfully invite him lo com

probably, by the time he gets through with
ours and we with his, Toodles may be here

for Toodles' antecedents long as he writes
a truthful ;and reliable communica ion He
cannot say anyliing too harsh of the swin
dlers aud Abolitionists who. ban to the
coat Jail of this Republican party. But there
is the rub; Toodles is too well acquainted
with their fraud and corruptiou and has the
coutage to expose them, and we have the
independence to print 'em. We would in-'
vite the'attention of Palemon as well as his
negro worshipping friends to the la'ter part of
a communication published on the first page

resist a charge that the rebel infantry now
threatened to make. The" rebels still kept
gaining ground, to our right, andgot within
bix' hundred yards of our ftae, with three
pieces of artillery, from which paint they
opened upon us with grape, canister, shot,
shell and sharpnell. The fight ' was now
becoming desperate ; each and every one
fell that something desperate and decisive
would soon transpire. The firing was now
terrific.and of snch'a character that it seem

one mortar on our right, with 8 rebel pieces

killing (our men, and causing them to retire.

the loe, killing lare numbers of them, and
following them a distance ol two miles,
when night put a stop to their further dis
comfiture ; and the 84th completely ex
hauste.l and almost annihilated was reliev
es t-v oiher regiment, and they went to
looking atiei their killed and wounded.
To part cularize certain ones wonl 1 seem
like'doir.g injustice to the rest, but there are
some that need more than a passsing notice.
Co, Murray fell at the head of his men gal
lantly leading them on: he was a brave and
gallant nffi.-er. His remains were forwarded
to Harri-t'ii'g where his mother resides. It

Lieut Ent. than whom a braver man
does not exist, borrowed a gun from one ot
the boys whose knees were weak, and was

loading and firing his piece with as much
coolness as though on parade.

lamented by all his comrades But he fell
in - a good cause : peace to his ashes.

Tut School Exhibitions given in the
Court House on Friday and Saturday eve
nings were a derided success.drew crowded
houses both evenings..' The exercises were
of an Interesting character and executed in
such a manner as tp do credit both to schol
ars and teacher The whole affair was on
der the immediate'snpervision of the Princi
pal .D. A. BecstxT ol our uradea cnooi.
Upon.the, whole, the Declamation, compo

very satisfactory tQ.both parents ,and , in

Remarks of Col. t. L.jTate, of -Columbia,
DeHofrcl in (he House of Representative, 6n the 1
J3,'A nf March, 1862. on the repeil tf i bill,
entitled 'lAn Act fur the commutation 0 Jon-
nage Unties " ' : ; J
' Mr. TATE rose and said:
Mr. Speaker, when 1 toon my seat upon
this floor, in the halls of legislation, over
two months finse, it was not for the pur
pose. of consuming precious tim,e. 'he
discussion ofevery subject that might come
before the House, but with' the rietermina
tion of attending to the wants of my con
stituents, and carefully guarding the inter
ests of the rommonwealih Gentlemen
here will bear me honorable testimony,
thai in the diweharge of my official duiies
as a member of this House,! have at least
endeavored to attend closely to the public
bu siness, and have avoided all encroach
menl upon their patience in speech-making.
Looking to the paramount obligation
of treating my fellow members with cour
tesy and respect,a consideration which has,
and I hope ever will, largely influence my
actions, I have been content to leave the
public discussion mainly for abler hands
and moreexperienced legislators.
The -subject-matter now under discussion
Is one which deeply interests every citizen
of this great Commonwealth. It is the
question of ihe rights of the people against
the wrongs of legislation. I refer to the en
ormity ol the act of the last Legislature in
the palace of the bill entitled "An Act for
the commutation of tonnaae duties. "
Sir, by the passage of that act it appears
that, in a financial view of the subject, at
one ell swoop the sum of eight hundred
and fifty thousand dollars' was extracted
from the coffers of the Commonwealth, and
legislated into the pockets of the grent cor
poraiion known a the Pennsylvania rail
road company. And that was only the ini-
tiative in the gigantic swindle upon the tax
payers of Pennsylvania, over eiln thous-
nnd dollars of which sum is paid annually
by Columbia comity Millions njion mill-
I ions more of the people's money, now and
i. . .... . . .

those, I am happv to class my immediate t

.constituents, the people of Columbia and
Montour. And my colleague, f Mr.' Tntton)
has the ability, and I doobt not will prompt
ly vindicate the honor of the people ol Wy
oming and Sullivan.
Sir, I shall not s'op here to arsue the con-

View.
ing ii from the tand-point of common sense
i and act'insr in accordan pr with the rtnmU-
takeable tone of pnblic Ofi"ion at home
and abroal I am a: a loss to conceive
hw any gentleman here can for a moment
hesita'e giving this act. which is intended
to repeal ihe act o! la-t session, his uncon
diti'inal support. Legal gentlemen here
: who have labored so assiduously to clog
its passage, by conritn:ional technicalities,
: with an ingenuity deserving a belter cause,
, had bett'T.iri the lodgment of charitv. divest
J . Jt
i it of its verbiage, and cease the attempt to
; further thwart public sentiment and defeat
, .
I cornmo-i j istice. Early in the session, my
estimable friend from Philadelphia: (Mr,
j Denni) inquired who demanded tfi9 re-
I peal ofthU bill Where wa? the exprei
j sion of the peopje on the subject ? and what
was the evidence of their desires for the re
peal? He addd; have the people petition
ed for it? I answer yes! They have peti
tioned in thunder tones through 'he ballot
box. and we are here to honor their pe'.i
tiops And in the language of Gen. Mc
Clellan, when, the day of retribmiori arrived
which was on the eighth of October last
'thunder was heard all around the. sky.'
This fact is known and will be long remem
bered by many nnfaiihtul rppre-entatives
of a confiding and generous people. Ter
rible and emphatic was the ve rdict of con
demnation given by many an injured com
munity. May I not admonish gentlemen
on the other side, to stand from under the
crushing wheels of this modern Juzccrr.aut,
if they would avoid the moral burial that
knows no political resurrection. The peo
ple are ever jealous of iheir rights ; let then
j iheir servants practice honesty and fidelity
mat tliey may avoid tne usual imputation
ol the maxim, which says :
"lie who dishonest is in little things,
Would be a villain in the court of kings.''
Mr Speaker, 1 am here for the first, and
I expect for ihe last time in the capacity of
a legislator. Elected by my loyal fellow
citizens, for the purpose of representing
their wi-hes and interests, among which
are the agreeable duties of maintaining the
Government, upholding the Constitution,
and suppressing rebellion. That duty once
performed, and it shall not fail tor want ol
my humble influence, I -will in the good
providence ot God, retire to my home and
resign the delegated trust with which I
have ben honored, into the hands of my
constituents- And, in after days, I trust, I
shall be able to refer with nride to ihe rec
ord ol my every vo e here, for the substan
tial evidences of my devotion to the cause
of justice and the dearest interests ol my
beloved country, as among the loved remin
iscences of my life.
Mr. Speaker, here in the halls of legisla
tion, in front of that chair hallowed by the
once occupancy of John Hancock, in which
he was seated when he appended his name
to the imperishable Declaration of Indepen
dence, overshadowed by the wings of the
American Ea;Ie, a:id around which circles
tne hallowed Star; ' and Stripes. f now
pledge the renewal of my fidelity in supjiort
of my constitutional obligations "This: can
only be do .e by fairly meeting every ques
tion and assnming a portion of its legitimate
responsibilities. I fhall ; therefore, record
my voto in favor of the bill entitled. ' An
act to repeal m! act lor the comrnutalioi. ol
tonnage duties.'' ' : '
