-GOSSIP WITII OUR FRIENDS. We have a
word to say about 'one of our friends, and trust
he will.not take offence. Ms name is- 7 --,
-and he can be readily recognized by his having
a little dug thr erer
_ trotting after his heels. Our
friend is amiable and high minded, but his dog
is not. He would not intentionally' tread upon
• a worm, still less offend a 'friend, but his dog
has no scruples whatever on that score. He
`accosts every one he meets with a kindly smile
or a cheery laugh, but his dog is supereilous ;
and snappish. It is a supreme pleasure - to en- .
eonnter kin, but quite 'a risk to approach his
_
dog.' flc can be trusted with untold gold, and
any &Welts amount of clothing, while his dog
will coniteticendlo steal a piece out of one's,,
pants. ' To shake,hands with him is expediogly
risky, as his dog always considers it a personal
affront. To iostle him is as much as one's coat
tail is worth ;t and to play leap frog with him
;would cost it least an ounce •of flesh nearest
the centr'ei,`Ol the tihea. , Call upon him at . .,s
'- tome, ring; the door bell, and you hear thi lit
tle cur yelping in the entry as though yo ad
ii ii
trodden on his tail; you open the door, he pies
at you fariothily,, tail in air, with his mouth
opened to its utmost, as if to swalloW you boots
and all; into the parlor he bounds, and dances
the Trantelld, about you circiunferically; you
have been incautious enough to place your hat
;beside your chair, 'which, when you come to
look for you find torn into hits,'and as you are
not like Sir Isaac - Newton, you cannot say or
feel like saying, "Diamond, DiaMond," etc.,
etc,, It is possible your friend may comfort
you by taking the= pesty animal in his lap and
' fondling it for thrb balance-of the visit; and
then when you rise to leave, du cape. It is
pleitiant when yeti p'ass your frienir,!,a house,
with the lady of your heart before, and with
'whom _you'ever wish to appear dignified. We
cannot imagine dignity in a more trying' posi:i
Kim than with a little dog nibbling angrily at
his heels. Try IL You are talking with, your.,
adored of the lastiparty, or ball, or- sermon, or
lecture, or ever of the weather, and out rushes
the
,Prr like a hotrse-a-fire, ventre A terre,
frightens your idol, causes one of those chill to
passs through you that always commence at the
end of the big toe nail atutleaves one only at the
terminus of the longtist hair in the highest point
of the head. (Dr;Jones would say "on the
apex of the cranium"); and then (the dog, not
the chill) bounds back as though he had ren
dered his master tome 'signal service, and was
entitled henceforth and fOrever to a pensicin
frorrithe grateful family he has just saved from
destructioa. The temper _of this little dog, it
is true, has not been improved by the bad boys
of the,mighborhood ; neither is he entirely re
sponsible for his neglected training on the part
of his master ;, but then we who have our feel
ings and our trowsers lacerated by his insane
attacks are not apt to reason the matter as to
'his canine education, and when we kick - (at)-:
the offender, are mostlikely guilty of blessing (1) -
the proprietor of said quadruped. Atrimes too
an ambitious animal of this species will leap
higher ihan• the calf of the leg ; and then, 0 Mo
res! (a distinguished 'clothing man in Chatham
street) fancy one's feelings with a little dog
hanging to the seat of one's pantaloons, that cost
(war prices) twelve or fifteen dollariii—consider
the cost, estimate the shuck to one's delicacy as
well as nerves. Moreover, a lady, though la
dies are all, all sweet and amiable, and all that
you know—a lady, we say, don't like tohave 'a
little dog hagging to her skirts, clawing, and
,
biting and scraping, and scratching. :becasion
ally this little dog is diniably inclined, and then
favors roc- with attentions in the - shape of dirty
slobbers, pokes hi* nose and tail in your face,
draws sundry tiausie staffs adown your inexpres-
Aibles. To show you how thoroughly dead to
all decency the possession of such little dogs

inmost recesses of our bosom. One day When

REV. F. W. CONRAIL—This eminent Divine
assumed his new charge in this place on Sun
day last. His valedictory_ sermon in Lancas
ter, the field of, his former labors, was preached
on the 343 inst., from the text—" Finally breth
ren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort,
be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of
Love and Peace shall -be with you." The Lan
caster Daily E,zpress,-'speaking of his labors
there, says :
" His ministrations in Trinity have been marked
and decided. Being eminently a preaelaer for the
heart, instead of simply for the head, he hasarouSed
the careless to thoughtfulness, the sluggard to action,
the formalist to apirituality, l the humble disciple to
greater fidelity, and many: to consider • the one
thing laeedlitl.' has carefully avoided the eat_
mistake of contending for purity in doctrine without
insisting ut the same time also upon purity o: life.
This would be with words to'advance the trutu, but
with deeds to oppose it; it would he with one hand
to build up but with the other to tear doWn. For if
Satan rule the life how can Christ rule the heart;
or how can Christ's doctrine remain where he him
self and his life are expelled? Hence, Mr. Conrad
has consistently adhered to the Diviue injunction:
What God has joined together, let, not man put
'asunder.' •
We • deeply regret losing him from this place.
Few men have made a more decided impression
upon any communiity than Mr. C. has done upon
this for the short time• he has been here. 11 ith
intellectual abilities of no ordinary grade and an
independence of character that regarded neither
the smiles nor the frowns of men, and with convic
tions deep and strong which made him necessarily
a positive man. he could not hut command a con -=
trolling influence, among our people. His trumpet
never gave an uncertain sound, but unmistakably
indicated where ho stood. unlike many other
clergyman , who are, severe in denouncing sins ,corn
'flitted before the flood, and grow eloquent in deple
ting the oppressions of the Egyptiahe towards the
Israelites, but who have never a word to say abbot
the crimes of the day. and especially - of that • sum
of all' chattle slavery. as existed right
'at our doom, dr Conrad. employed the tio*Pel ok a
tieing force to living quextions. and living men,
ifonee he Woulchaut only create a breeze, but occa
sionally a storm around him.: Yet none of these
things moved him. Be failed not 'on that account
to declare the whole counsel of God whether men
would hear or whether they would forbear.
'Nobly and consistently has he boihe testimony
for Truth. Right and Humanity. And though hated
b..• mealy mouthed politicians, and denounced as a
. political preacher' by those whose parte prodi lee
tions were disturbed, because he warned them faith
fully against the atheistic and infidel directions
given to great moral questions which demagogues
hini , taken under their special protection. he'learss
to-day es-en with the respect of his opponents and
the warm love of his numerous and daily increas
ing friends. His place may be ;oippried, but will
not easily be jiticat. Our best wishes go with. him to
his new field of labor at Chambersburg."
MILITARY A FFAIR S—The 20th and 22d
Regiments i ) a.Cay., recently encamped here
are now at Martinsburg, Va. Col. Boyd's
Regiment, the 21st=of the 'same Brigade have
not as yet been ordered off.
Lieuts. 'Munich and Sample of the 11th Pa.
.Cay. arc now at their homes in this place on a
short leave of absence. They report our boys
in the Regiment in good health and ready to
move on the enemy at short notice.
The gallant 'lo7th Regt ,—the term gallant
has been richly earned by them—arrived in
Harilshurg on last SUnday aweelt. When this
Regiment left Harrisburg March 18th 1862 it
numbered 37 officers and 921 milisled men: It
was then uuder the command of Col. Zeigle
splendid officer anslabrave man. Col. Zeigle's
death at Warrenton. Va., was greatly regretted
by his command. Lieut. Col. McAllen sue
deeded him. Subsequently Col. Thos. A. M' Coy
was appointed and is now the commanding of
ficer. Did space permit we would he glad to.
give full details of the services of the corageous
body of nien.4 They have -been constantly in
the front and were in the engagements of
('edar Mountain, 'Rappahannock Station, See:
mid Hall Run, Chantilly, South Mountain, An
tietam, FrederickShurg, Chancellorsvilie. Get
tysburg, and Mine Run. The Regiment belong
ed toothe Ist Army Corps, 'and returns to the
State tti recruit its strength which now num
bers but 24 officers and 226 men. Capt Brand's
original company - 100 strong from this place
.which belonged to this Regiment, has returued
without an officer and less than 20 men fit fin
duty. All honor to the 107th. May the memory
'of its dead be always cherished, and its living
members receive, the highest rewards of a
grateful country.
Col. S. P. Spear of the 11th Pa... Car. and
commanding the Cavalry Brigade in General
Butler's Department, was on a short visit to
Philadelphia and Harrisburg last week. - Col.
Spear served twenty-three years in the Regular
Army and from a Lieutenant in the Volunteer
service was rapidly promoted' to ibis present
position. His long service and gallant deeds
fully entitle him to a Brigadier Generalship and
we trust the claims of so deserving an officer
will not be long disregarded:
