He is untrammeled by time or circumstance, can let thoughts run free as air, and can prate of POMPEY or ?dui. just as it suits him. We, in addition to this advantage Maim the female privilege of chtmging our opinion as often as we please. Doth not the world turn round once a Cay are we not of and on and in the world? Of a suety Then will we turn and change and twist ad. lib. We assume the responsibility of disclosing what cannot always remain a secret—the • fact that a board 21 . 21 k is , in process of build ing on tho road leading from the north end of our lown'to Shippensburg, (not the walk, but the pike.) This same is a private enter prise for the public benefit, and is very con venient in wet weather, whici — we proved a feW days k i ince.. Having occasioit to, walk sortie distance out the road, we plodded 'along, "our thoughts on gossip fairly bent,"-with out-seeing the new walk. The mud and rain were trying son one's boots and temper. To mir surprise we were informed by a friend, who needed but-a glance at our lower' extre mities to appreciate our ignorance, that there was a board walk: We tried it on our re turn\ and are,prepared to report it a very good\ institution—for Charribershurg ; and with'alaudable desire that others May not miss it as 'OM did, We here mention the FACT. Philadelphia has her horse railroads, New York her ; North and ~asst Rivek and Cham .bersburg -her BOARD trALK. W©. must say we would have preferred the' walk a little wider, for now it is barely possible for two small boys to walk abreast upoir it, but as foi. two women; that is out of the question, or even one woman and her husband. The result will he the ) woman with her usual un selfishness will take the _ thirty inches of planning and leave all the rest of the road to the men. Should not the flourishing suburb,through which this rind passes have a name! Loeal politics have fastened upon two distinct names. The Dethoerlits upon CLAP.KEI3VIF.E, and the 'Rack Republicans LEwisro*N. We confess t(ti a penchant for the latter name. With regard to the first, we don't See why it might not as'well be dubbed SnEPI I ERSBURO, or et:i..a.ma U. tAnitsviLL*; but in the I.. , tt'st we nii, that ALiXANDER LEwl,, was the pioneer, We though youth ful (?) can well remember when his modest dwelling was the sole representative of the . now do urishin - g settlement , The day has `come when the children of darkness (a po etic term for the negrow.) shall have their just:dues. Stall the army and navy of these titate , be all engaged in righting them. and obi Inc, Lewis be deprived of Ms right? Forbid it GP.F.ELY ! To one who has -been al bent from C g, say ten years. what a wonderful sight would be pre sented in this locality ! A fine , large new steam , saw-mill, fine new houses on' a new street west of the railroad and on the Ship pensburg pike, a huge straw-board mill as long as a city block of houses near by; new fences, new - stables and a school house. Soon there will be a church, a hotel and two res . taurants ; then anotherchurch and two more hotels and some three or four additional res taurants'; and then the ungratefpl foster child, as did. the American • Colodes in '76, will declare her independence, and will through corrupt set up a separate municipality, and will possibly elect for her first Mayor a grandson of its. founder. By that time you and we, gentle reaiter, may be dead, but in• articulo mortis it will be pleas ant for us to know of the future greatness of Lrwterow.N. But in thus foreseeing the greatness of the embryo city, there are some sad feelings that force themselvesnpon us. The oId•GATE Housg, with its once carefully white-washed fence, its • homely walls all covered with ,roses and honeysuckles, its well kept yard a mass of flowers, the garden with its dilapidated out-houses a miracle . of order, the house itself internally the very perfec tion 'of neatness and contentment—all this must - disappear in the march of improVement --44 appear fromi3ight; but will ever be dear to memory, as long as life and memory.re main, God bless the old Gate House !" sax...we from our inmost heart and we know thatmany' others will respond, in kindness and synapatby,'" Amen!" - • THE ?00p..--.ItAIOUId 11 ever:be forgotten that, _'•the.Poor always ye have with you i" but espeaially•ahould we be mindful of this tauthz.when bleak Winter, with his inhos. pitable snows, lays telentless siege alike to tho'epulent and to y., Then, should those who are blesssd with Comfort and plenty re ! , member that every hoarse sound of Winter's lowest carries sorrow and suffering to the 'homeless, and we should spare no reasonable effigti or sacrifices to make glad the many children of want around us. ' Cherie is notra book of inspired-teaching that does not remind us of our duty to the Poor ; and in the' terrible 'judgment given as the . finaboondonnation of thewicked, is found the burning word.4.-- , ‘ I was hun gerecland ye gave me no meat ;'I was naked and Ye clothed rrte'noL' , ' It is taught as one of the highest"of Christian duties; and none will deny that it is one. of the 'holiest offices of humanity. I Let us 'all be watchfUlthat in this great duty we fail not. The coming winter will be one of unusual severity tothe..Poor. Labor will be scarce; and,pery article of necessity unprecedently high. -That ,there must - be an uncommon slegren of stiffering unless there shall be prompt and generous aid - rendered, eannot be doubted. ; , .And yet liever before within our — recollection, has a - 4 aneiourC i reat:Or so larishlp best'civied his, gifts' upon our peep's. 4 1 Our barns and storehousesteem' with plenty;' the producers are eommandirtg , extravagant prices for everything ; and t r hosti prices, , t. 6 basis of the prosperity of ihe wealthy, art the harbingers of sorrow to the Poor. Fuel is now sold at rates beyon ' the power of ; hundreds in our midst to each, and every art - idle of food is correspondingly costly ? while the enfeebled, the sickly, the suffering, as a rule, are unable to secure anything like a commensurate increase of compensation for their fitful labor. - Another class is added to the list of those who justly claim benevolent aid. These are scores of families in Ohamberiburg,- ant: more or less in every district in the county, whose head and sole reliance is either defend ing our Flag in the field, - languishing in tin hospital, or mourned by bereaVed loved ones - amongst our martyred dead. , For these, the legacies of fallen patriots to a Nation's grati tude, there should be nq needless sorrow ad • fled to their already stricken 'homes, and es pecially should want be astranger to their circles. It would be a blistering stain upon any community, blessed with our; boundless wealth, to allow. those who halve been widow ed and orphaned to defend our persons, out property and our Nationality, to feel the cruel pangs of poverty in onr ' midst. We may see them in our daily walks— " Bow,'d and bent, Wax grey and ghastly. witherin g ere their time." And th y deserve the care and 'kindness ol every lover of humanity afri of our coun try. Many. wives and mothers are deprived of their scanty support from the army by delay in payments and in. transmission, and only too many in bereavrnent and want mourn the sad sacrifices of war. - No man's abimdance is i l s own. It is the fruits of the beneficence_ of Him who tem , ,bets the winds and saves the bruised reed unbroken, and he who hears not the appeal of the stricken and suffering, is inhuman alike to hirriself and his fellows, and invites the just judgments of Heaven. ' This appeal is to all who are blessed with plenty. Those to whom - Much is given, let much be required, and let not the mite be withheld, for however humble the offering. , it will relieve some want and mingle some happiness with affliction: ' We notice in Bedford county that the far mers in the vicinity of theit town have agreed to bring their contributions of wood, flour, meal, meat, &c., to theinior on the day be fore Christmai. Why - Will not our people do likewise? Who will - I start in this good work ? -, ~.. . ILL-TEMPERED TINDEP4A MISTAX.R.—The Waynesboro - Record displays a discredittao degree of ill temper because its editor has been notified that the . .lIRPOSITORY claimed to be the newspaper withi the largest circu lation in the county. The proprietors of this journal had nothing whatever to dd. with the passage of the existing law;requiring all le gal notices to be advertised the f*a papers lumina the widest circulation in the county: but'it is the law here, ai it is in most • coun ties of the State, and we, simply proposed to establish legally that the REPOSITOXY has the largest circulation. s rln order to do this. it was due to all other; publishers to know that we made the claim rind,accordingly the publishers of the'Spirtt,l the the Rec. ord-aud - tite Journal were asked by rule to object to the claim if they . had good ground for doing so. This simple rule the Record construes into a selfish effort of the REPOSITORY to deprive it of advertising, although the sanie issue contains a large advo:tisement sent by the publishers of this Parier, at their own sugges tion. In, this unkine assumption the Rec ord is most grievously ? mistaken. The RE POSITORY does not seek to deprive, any co temporary of its legitimate patronage. When' it establishes the fact legally that it has the, largest circulation, it does not in any degree deprive any other jouinal 'of advertising.— Lega'l notices formerly could be published in one or more papers, ds in the judgment of parties was best. ikojw they must be pub, lished in the two having the widest eireula tion, arid in any other j s dictated by the 'oat tion of the business to be benefited 'thereby. 'Every legal notice .wising from Estates in Washington township should be published in the ReCord ; so of the" papers in Greencastle ant iercersblirg; and we have never sought to interfere with then,, and never shall. If the Record claims:to have a larger cir culation than the REPOSITORY, its editor should attend at next Court and make good its claim ; if it does not, the . rule needs no further attention, and its advertising will neither be itimeasedi or diminished thereby. Wp submit however that it should not do am injustice to impute selfishness-to us, Or ale ! sire to enlarge our business at the cost of the Record, when its !own advertising columns are living witnesses against its assumption. Will the Record recall its harsh and ill-con sidered language ? 1 311 E SANITABY.ICoIdbfIeaTOII.—We have been handed an article from the Sanitary Commission Buil4in, appealing to the -14a dies of the North to incr ease . their exertions to meet the want of soldiers in the hoipi tals, suffering prisoners, &c. The Commis sion say that their jmachinery is now 'in ad mirable order—their central reservoirs per fectly adapted is their • purpose; and, they assert with good reason that they can best use the contributions of the generous, and best guard against, imposition, as they have carefully covered the whole ground. • They know the necessities of soldiers and prison ers, and the safest °baronets of reaching them. They urge that with the opening winter, ev ery village Sewing Circle, Soldier's Relief Society; Church or Dorcas-Association, i3hould set about a systematic contribution of sup plies to the Central Associations at Boston, New York, Philtidelphia, Cincinnati, Cleve land,' Chicago and Louisville. They very justly observe that if there is a jealous and ering of these resources, a littleber and a „7- h e .fraultliwiltpositorp, iDttnnber 16, 1863. little there, the waste and abuse will be fear ful. The sanitary Commission Bulletin is sent to ;every association contributing sup plies; to such 'Clergymen and 'others who wish iVto guide their efforts, and its columns contain all necessary inforMation relative to bounties, furloughs, pensions, discharges, and also give the best method of communicating with prisoners in different sections. The headquarters of the Sanitary Commission at Philadelphia is 1307 Chehnut Street. Caleb Cope is Treasurer. Inns-mum—Our readers will remember the incident of a dead and unrecognized' Union soldier found on the Gettysburg bat tle-field with a photograph of three children by his side. Miss Shrivel, a daughter of the Post Master at Graeffenburg Springs, was :he first ono to observe the body, lying with the hands folded on his breast, and the pho tograph just fallen from his grasp. She took the picture home, and her father had the body interred and the grave marked; and publicity was given to the incident with the hope of g•ving the. family information of the and fate of the father. Photograph copies of the children were taken from the original md'offered for gale in the cities. ' A notice of the dear Land unknown soldier with a photograph of the childi'en reached ,he eye of a soldier's wife in Cuttarargus :ounty, New York She had sent her hus band such a picture and had not:heard from him since the sanguinary struggle of Get tysburg. I , \ ith - trembling anxiety she at once sent•for a , eopy of the photograph, and it contained the likeness of her own children and told the painful story at she Was wi lowed and her children orphaned by the murderous hand of Treaon. The name of the! soldier was Sergeant A. Hummiston, 184th N. Y. Volunteerk The widowed mother ikleft without means to support or educate her \children, and, it is proposed to sell photographs of the children md apply the profits to the: benefit of tht; They can be had at Shryocys, and we trust that they will have a liberal sale in this community. DEATH - OF GEN. JAMES ALLEN.—The 'Vines, published at Washoe city, Nevada Territory, comes to us in mourning for the loath of Gen. James Allen. its chief Editor. lie was born in Chambersburg in the year 1800, but emigrated to Ohio 'when quite young. and became'one of the Editors of the Columbus Journal. He subsequently went to Texas and participated in the war for the independence of that State serving, under Gen.' Sum Houston, and subsequently served under-Scott in the Mexican war. He next followed the-stream of adventurers to Cali fornia. He was'connectedwith - the Sacra, mento Tribune, the Marysville-- Herald and the Marysville News.-in that, State, and was chosen State Printer on the American ticket in 1855. Within a few years he located in Nevada Territory, where he founded the Nevada Transcript, - and at the time of his ".,,death he was the principal Editor of ,the Washoe - Times. He was justly called The Nestor of the Pacific Presi. He leaves a c' wife San Juan, California:, and a sonrand zwo daughters. ACQUITTED.—Capt. Clarence Clayton, an employee in the Quarter Master's Depart ment here, has been tried by a Court Mar t dal, of which Gen. 0. S. Ferry was Presi dent, on the charge of " unlawfully selling and disposing of property belonging to the United States" on various specifications, and I found not guilty - on every one involving . criminality. He was therefore_ honorably acquitted by the Court, and the proceedings and findings have been approved by Major. Gen. Couch. ; Capt. Clayton was ever cour teous and - prompt in the discharge of his du ' ties, and we are gratified that a patient and impartial investigation of, his case has re sulted in his acquital on the merit•, and not :! upon any technisal defence. John Stewart, ! Esq.,, conducted the trial on part•o£ the goy ; •rnment; and Geo. W. Broiler and F. M. Kimmell, Esqs., were counsel for,the Defen dant. Fitom-Rtcumora.—A letter was received 'rom J. Porter Brown by his sister last week, lated Castle Thunder, Richmond, Noiretn .)er 24th. In it be says—" Our names have .ust been called to go to Salisbury, N. C. I have had a letter from Culbertson. They 'are all well and getting along very well. If tnytbing comes here for me, it will be for warded.. Keep' in good spirits -- ; every day brings it one day nearer to my release." A postscript to`the- same letter states that they are to start for Salisbury ! at 2 P. M. • - on 'that day. Our citizen prisimers are all now in North Carolina, and all the' advices re cowed from them represent the condition of prisoners - in Salisbury as much more corn fortablo than in Richmond., BY reference to our advertising coluthns, it will be seen that the Directors of the Poor of Franklin county have passed a resolution not to pay any physicians' or other bills con tracted with the poor of the county, unless said poor are in law paupers. It seemri that some physidians, undertakers and oth ers, upon orders•from Justiaoi of the Peace, frequently presented bills to the Directors which had no other merit than the fact that the persons for whom the aorvice was ren dered were unable to foot the bill. We en-. dorse the action of the Directors, believing .they have done right in the premises. - MELANCHOLY DEATH.-,-Mr. Josiah Bea!, sore, one of the most respectable citizens and leading business men of Waynesboro, Com , witted suicide on Sunday last. He shot him self while standhig. before a mirror, that he had put up intim stable s the ball lodging in the brain. He Was doubtless laboring under' a flt of temporary insanity. It has cast a wide-spread groom , over the werneuility in 'which he resided. ' THE Fulton Re - pub/icon gives its prospec tue for the new volume, inns hits off the e.- travagant - pretensioni of city fll:sh journals in exquisite style.
