dark curtain covers the heavens, while
the earth reflects back the ' same lugubrious
hues, with a sameness that: savors of a ludi

His face, when Mr. B. looked at
,him, was
the very picture of solemn studiousness; and
the - very- epitomC of roguery at alt other
timer; He used to bore holes through the
benches, and had an ingenious apparatus
formes or'a crooked pin and a string, by
_which, at any distance along the bench, all
ho had to do was to pull the string, and up
would go the pin into that part of the unfor
tunate boy's body where the learning was,
in our school, supposed to be pituated, " reno

yell, and shake his fist; at the studious Ed.,

to receive a ferruling. I was as fond of ma

Mr. B:s attention to it, and procured for me
a trimming. I shall never forget the time I
asked permission to go down with Ed. an

hearing were solemnly marched off to jail-,
accompanied by the Borough Constable and

houses were then searched, in which were
found several suits of new clothes, about SO

A GALLgT SOLDIER.--On Thursday last
&week, Ist L dohn S. Hatch, second in
- ceminand of the Invalid . Company recently
this place, received a commission as Cap
tain. It was an agreeable surprise from the
fact that ho had never solicited it, nor is he
aware of any parties interesting themselves
for him.. Capt. Hatch has displayed quali
ties truly deserving of credit, .and though
young in years, has passed through scenes of
peril and strife sufriciept to shake the firm
ness of the bravest of veterans. He enlisted
as a private in the First Michigan Infantry'
to July, 1861, at Ann Arbor, and passing
through all the grades of a non-commission-
ed officers, was commissioned 2nd Lienti in
May, 1862. 'He Was With McClellan throfigh
the4nlire Peninsi3la "canipaign", and for
al
lent service at Gainei' Hill, where he bad
command of, the company; he was pronioted,
tiilst Lieutenant. In the memorable fights
of, Bull Run, August 20th an - d - 36,th, 1862,
he was.an active participant, and when the
last terrible effort was made to carry, j the
enemy's batteries by a charge 'of Infantry;
on the evening of the_3oth, he Was wounded
five times—first his left hand - Was torn' to
pieces by a musket shot; it was bandaged on
the field, and in ten Minutes he was again at
the head of his command.' He then received
a musket ball in his 'right hip,land
minutes after was struck by a musket ball in
the left breast, which passed nut through his
shoulder blade. He still conatted with his
command, and it was only when - the frag
ments of a shell, which had burst alniost' in
his face, and tore the flesh from_ 'his right arm
below the elbow and terribly mangling his
already shattered left arm;did he fall to the
ground fromrexhaustien and loss of blood.
He was conveyed to Alexandria and suffered
amputation of the left arm near the elbow.
In January he rejoined his regiment, but
his wounds breaking out afresh- - he , was
again sent to the hospital. * Obtaining thirty
days leave of abseneehe visited his home in
Michigan and while there received a comis
sion as Captain. He again rejoined his com
mand in' March and - was with it in all the
subsequent movements of the army of the
Potomac and was among the gallant spirits
nt Cliancelorville and Gettysburg. Such a
record of bravery and endurance is seldom
presented. While in Washington under:
Medical treatment he vos appointed Ist Lient. e ;
in the Invalid Corps, yielding reluetant,
to a separation from his old comrades. 110
came to this place temporarily iii command
of the Invalid Conipany and as stated has
received a commission as a Captain. He;is
subject to assigning orders,frorn the Provost
Marshal General. •
made
in the
record we have made has proved himself one
of the bravest of soldiers, but we must add
that he h as . exhibited qualities since sojourning
aniongns, not only indicating the gallant
soldier but the true gentleman and the most
genial of companions.
NEW RECBITITING STATION.-L• \ qapt. R.
B. Ward has opened a new recruiting station
in the office formerly •ccupied by snively
Strickler, Esq., on East Market street. Cap
tain Ward is the popular and gallant,co'
mender of Company "D," llth Pen - nsyl2
vania Cavalry, now near Suffolk, Virginia,
and-whieh 'is considered one of the best Regi-
Meats 'in the service. The Captain's com
pany is composed of young:rn.en almost ex
clusively from this town and neighborhood,
and the• flue, gentlemanly appearance :of * a
number recently home on- - furlough bespoke
the 'excellent- discipline - prevailing among
them. TO those desiring to enter the Cavalry
service no better opportunity could be offered
than: to enlist with Captain Ward. Veter
ans who have seen nine menths or more ser
vice, receive aßounty of $402 from the United
States and . sloo from.the Borough' of dam
beriburg All others receive $402, which
includes the Borough Bounty.
