that he- may occasionally• say something , good
'Eirtouth - for the pulpit, and like - bur friend Cow
per, we.namethe same with "awe." We have
. ...ventured" before to mention the similarity - of our
:army to the heroes of Flanders. I.'fow We
" are not certain by any- means that the army of
• FLlnden; swore so terribly upon their return
Lotne. We are generous enough to those dead.
'add gone patriots to hope that when they re-
turned to their wives and mothers and sisters
and sweethearts'that they at least made an at
terefit to' remodel their language upon the usa
ges of/decent society. Our arroy, and brave
boys they-are too, have come - among us, their
'frietida and fellows, "full, of strange oaths, and
!sin; and' quick in quarrel." We don't" mind
"bearded like the pard," ox "seek
ing thAubble reputation" even in the cannon's
.Mouth," but we do wish they would keep their
own mouths swabbed like the cannon's. is it
ahselntely necessary for one friend 'to meet an

:tOnine to be "an unruly member." There now,
,vdttyrou WO care, and we'll promise not to
again. As for fighting we don't care so much
:for that, for yon - punish each other. A sort of i
:!favriftnitribution" goes with it. 'A word,- a
blow, a bloody nose, a soiled uniform—all right, I
try it { again, but dozi't stmar. If your horse
throwti yini, get up and catch him, but don't
smear. - Sometimes we think- that whisky has a
good dead to, do with your bad conduct. We
don't intendito &liver a temperance 'lecture,
tut will tell you an old story. A little boy once
spent-into the shop ea blacksmith, and. picking
ttp a piece 'of iron, and finding it hot he dropped
,it at once, whimpering, "I did not knOw that
black iron was hot." It is to be presumed that

but alasit is ".black," and you think it-won't

to make it jn our • humble opinion' a wtiuderful

represent, never trust us again..
Ve'stivi a fearful sight for a pro-slivery man
the other day-one of our most beantifOl young
ladies_prdinenalling the public streets With a

We heard one lady say of another that site

Tin: FITE OF A TRAITOR.—Isaac
a citizen of York county, was drafted in 1862,
and mustered into the service of the United
States' as a member of the 166th regiment.-
-
Snots thereafter he. deserted, and never returned
tF the -mill:neut. In the latter part of June
Ittst, won the-rebels occupied the counties south
4r.4 the=B4sVehantia, he joiued,thein as a leader
for guide,"and openly declared his purpose to aid
thew in robbing and killing the "d —d Lin
' eofei Abolitionists." He;:coritinuea with . them
iseverat dziyi;—probably until the defeat at Get
-tysliturg admonished him that he had made a
wish* in espousing the rebel cause so openly
'and .eafrnestlY - . 1 He was soon afterwards arres
'tedianil arraigned . fin- bin! in this Plare on the
,20th, of Nevember . last, before a military. court,
liver which Gen. Ferry presided. Two -clam
.
es:vrest* preferred against him,—first Desertion;
tint eicoild t giving intelligence to the enmity.
Wifitition following the second. charge
. •
Alleges , !th4t the aaid Isaac Fishel, Co. —l66th
Regiment Pennsylvania Militia, aid intelli-
lent* to the enemy by showing them the roads
- nral#ring information as to the places of resi
tlie*rs of citizens, to wit: Rebel 'soldiers in
agninst the authority of the Government
ei the United States, and did say that he was
going along with' the rebels, and 'was going to
;fighf for them; and that the said Isaac Pishel

Aiaarebed,from York county up in the direction I
cif and to Carlisle, Cumberland county, Penn-
Asylvonia." A patient investigation wan had of,
liscase, stud the court &tug him guilty. of both
4chirges'and the material specifications therein.
He
,was therefore sentenced to "be shot to
ileathat such time and place as the General
.commanding this Department shall direct"—
°esti Conehtstade the following order upon the
isiroceedings—"Of .the Ist charge (desertion)
there were extenuating Circumstances connect
;4sd with it; but of the 2nd charge, the records
of the Court show it to have been committed iu
York county, Pa., at the time invaded by our
'*enemies, and within sound of their artillery kil
ling his countrymen at Gettysburg. The pro-
at.dings,-findings and sentence are approved.
Theprisoner, Isaac Fishel, will be shot to death
,
- with uiusketry, between the hours of 11 A. M.,
iind 1 st. on Friday the 18th day of March
next. The commander of the Post at Carlisle
is charged with' the execution of this order."
•
The eXteunating circumstances to which Gen.,
Ana ; rcfered relative to Fishei's desertion,
were doubtless based upon the information that
'he bad been poisoned against the government
by
,ablet men than himself and thereby probably
induced to desert. : In :York county several
prominent, Men whose party prejudices are
stronger than their love of country, openly ae,.
d are d that the draft of
. 1862 was'uncenstitu-'
tional, and that the men could not be compelled
to serve; and it mild be reasonable to excuse
a man of mo d era te 'intelligence for being influ
enced thereby. Sow. far such teachings con
tributed to make him opetily espouse the cause
of the enemy, is not known; but however much
others may be responsible for his actions, there
can be nothing short of insanity plead in exten
uation-of such condact, and he willjustly stiffer
the extreme penalty of the law for aiding the,
enemy to plunder, mid desolate his own people:
He will be executed
,on the 18th inst.—Friday
of next week, at Carlisle, and even the cow
ardly andtreachetons taught him to hate
the government that protected him, must admit'
the justice of the Traitor's fate.
LIFE INsettAns„—The subject of Life In
surance has never been properly considered or
appreciated by, the Peifple,and especially in the
ry
struggle earnestly and as
siduouslycount Dien from ail
to year to earn a compe
tence for their farglies, and, their lifes are
burdened with ausiciies as to the fate of their
families should they be called away, before they
have realized their uncertain dreams of hale
pendence ; yet but few- ever lake the certain
and easy method 'of gUarding their loved ones
against want by life-insurance, Every man,
Who is dependent upon his labor for the sup- ,
port of himself and fUnaiTy; should invest partof
his earnings in a safe life itiguraiee company,
and he could then feel - that however soon the
;inexorable summing - might come—howeier it
might interfere with well matured but unexe
cuted plans for worldly 'gain, there would be a
certain provision fur hig,family against want.
We know of a number of instances wherein
policies of life insurance alone saved families
from the hardest necessities if not absolute
want, and in the cities; where life insurance
is well appreciated, such instances occur almost
daily. . _
All you needed
. _
7 Tie late 31r. Camp, of this count,, had taken
'an insurance on his life `but a fay months before
his death. He had justmarried and started out
in tie world to rough4hew his way to fortuneif
possible; but appreciating the' uncertainty of
all humari enterprises, he effected an insurance
on his life for $5,000. But a few weeks there
after-he was called to the. "City of the Silent," ,
but he `had the .coristilittion that he did not
kayo his stricken wife dependent.- An instance
has come under Our observation recently that" .
illustrated the necessity of lift. , insurance. A
lady in Philadelphia took out .a policy for $5,000
in the American Life Insurance Company of
Philadelphia on the sth of December last. On
the 15th she was taken- ill: on the 25th she died,
and on the 31st her family was paid the amount
of the policy by the company; and but for her
timely insurance, her family would hake been
- comparatively if not absolutely dependent. -
We regard life insurance as a legitimate in
vestment;-and we invest in It just ns we do 'in
any business eriterPrise that promises future .
remuneration. , 'Whether mit invest profits in
lands, stocks, bonds, or insurance policies, the
-result is the sume il for..what is , saved is raved
for those who come after us. Should we live
very many years, other investments might do
better than insurance policies; but While death
often defeats the beet schemes,for theaccumu
lation of property, it brings insurance on life tos
substantial results to, those whom itls' ; desired
- to benefit. We base given the subject much
reflection, and would - earnestly adVise all to
invest in accordance with their meanie in life
insurance. We believe that the American,
advertised in our columns, is a'solyerit and safe
institution, and hive preferred it for our own
investments in that line. Information can be
had on the subject by application to . Mr.
-Wm.
G. Reed at the REWSITORY office.
THE SANITARY Commiss!oN..—We have in -
fore us a statement of the
. 0; ect and methods
of .the Sanitary Commission, which has been
ne t ting under the direct sanction of the goiern,
, ment since June, 1861. The statement before
us says that the demands upon the Treasury
have recently been unexpectedly great. Within
one week, in addition to the usual contributlons,
ten thousand dollars were expended through
the Louisville branch, to meet wants,,arising
. from the late battles at Chattanooga. and Knox - -: ;
vine, and a like sum in, the East to meet impel: :
alive demands for Hospital supplies. Nearly .
$lOO,OOO have been sent since December last,
to the relief of our forces at New Orleans; Mid
it is stated that the vastly= increasing wants of
the armies have depleted the Treasury' of, - the
Commission "to a point of danger and distress."
We have heretofore urged upon our
_charita
ble citizens the wisdom of •contributing,to the
comfort of our 'Sick - and wounded through the
channel of the Sanitary Commisiion. It has
its vast Libor of love completely systematized,
And it is ever advised of all the pressing wants
of soldiers in different see : io ns o f• t h e emit ,. / . 3 ,.,
They can contribute ,just at the proper time and
just the necessary ‘ article's, and at a much chea
per rate than it can -be doge in any other way
Private contributions sent direett- to the sol
Biers are often lost; oftener not needed, and al
ways needlessly expelisive; and if all would con
centrate their generous efforts into this one reli
able and systematized channel, there would-be
nn abandance of everything always on hand.
We appeal to every generous and philanthro
pic citizen to contribute - to this fund, and to
give it directly to the Commission, which has
its authorized agents—a - cotninittee of Ladies
of this place. We have good reason to know
that the Sanitary Comthission has done wonders
in diminishing the cruel.suffering! of war. Ali,
intelligent agent of Pennsylvania who had been
looking after the sick and wounded of Pennsyl
vania in the South-west, recently assured us -
thatisiiherever event he found the Sanitary
Commission ever busy in its errand of mercy
and meeting the wants of all classes and condi
tions of our suffering heroes. Do-not wait to
be Called upon, but give promptly and liberally
to assuage the sorrows of our brave bat unfor
tunate defenders.

THE T ErmiDED,—Now that.the period
of recruiting has been-extended. fill f.4.pril Ist,
the work should. be pushed forward as vigor
ously as ever, in order that the State quota may
be,complofely - and unquestionably-filled andvve
escape the draft. By a late Order all Goi'ern.-
Ment Bounties -will continue to be paid up to
the time above mentioned, and we have no
doubt liberal local bounties will be offered in
addition. '
Capt. R. B. Ward, of the Ilth Penna. Car.,
General Recruiting Officer is autliorizetito con
tinue his station, and will receive recruits for
any old Pennsylvania Regimentin either branch
of the service,—Cavalry, Artillery or Infantry.
The Captain is thoroughly posted relative to
the business, and is enabled to pay the largest
local bounties and give any desired
in regard to Milan!) , organizations from this
_State. He has met with Most surprising suc
cess in obtaining, new recruits, and - from his
well known energy' will 'mike many ninre ad
ditions to our forces in the field before the ex
piration of the designated time. 'The Captuin's
Office is on East Market Street, opposite the
Court House.
Let all use their best efforts to increase our
gallant armies to such numbers as to leave no
doubt of our power to crush the Rebellion and
bring a glorious pence with the close of the ap
preaching campaigns, -
