Gossip WITH OUR FRIENDS.-Llt has long been, and is yet, - tt great wonder to reflective minds that some one has 'not written an essay upon " Wait ing for the train." Peycologically speaking, "waiting for the train" superinduces a state of mind that has striven in vain to com prehend, so far as medical treatment goes. Un der delirium tremens, for instance, the nervesbe -come so sensitive that the buzzing of a fly may sound, like a hurricane, and the whisper of a ten der nurse cause the blood to congeal in one's veins. But "waiting on the train," however, is totally different in its nature. To establish my medical' opinion I will give an account of a desperate at tack ofhe abovoihentioned disease, from which. I suffered last Saturday night- Line, Camden and Amboy ; waiting point, foot of Barclay street: time, 7P. M.; weather, juicy. Walked upon the dock, where-there are ticraccommodations at all for passengers, and asked a Jersey Irishman when the boat would lie in. He informed MO that no boat had qatthat day on account of the fog, hilt that a freight boat would probably bring in the paisengers at Pier No. I (a mile furtherdown.) The Irishman was clever, communicative and af fable; offered to take me into the Hoboken ferry house alongside,. where I could wain myself without paying the usual three cents, and adviiMil me not to depend upon the boats " at all, at all." I thanked him for his kindness and mentally re solved to use my influence with the company to have him sent to the U. S. Senate in place of Gee. B. M'Clellan, deceased. Walked through four inches of mud to the railroad office, foot of Courtland street, and enquired how the passen gers would be likely to come Was there in formed that the boat had gun' out. " Why," said I, " she has not, for I saw her at the wharf." " Well, then," said the Jersey official, "the pas senge-ra will come in by the six o'clock train via, Jersey City." "It is after six. now," I ventured to remark.• "So it le," was the answer. _ "Now that I come to think of it, they'll most likely come by the' eight o'clock train." Hurried over to Jersey City, and made enquiries of the ticket agent there. " Maybe they will, and then again they mayn't," was his answer. I waited in tho'cold till eight, no train—till nine, no 'Crain. 'Went to the agent again. who told me " that they hadn't been ou time lately,, and that the ten o'clock came in generally ahead of the eight o'clock train." TWA . was some comfort. Trittar up and down to keep from freezing till ten and a-half, when the train came iu with the friend I was looking for —eight hours from Philadelphia to New York. I can not say that the hours were wasted, for I saw much, heard much and thmight much during this, time. I saw a fight, a real knock 'clown. Some one in the ferry house put a string of fish in a gentleman's lap. The gentleman remon strated, unreasonably of course,—so the fish owner thought—and words followed, then blOws. Need not describe;• the fight minutely, but I tilist my readers will be as Much pleased as I was to know that it proved a dear string of fish to the fellow. .I heard any amount of swearing, steam Whistles, complaints and growls; listened with at tention to the refined conversation of a score of hotel runners and hacknien; and learned many valuable statistics of *ew York, in slices, from sundry dirty-work men. I thought of my wet clothes, damp feet and cramped limbs; and like the man who wrote the burial of Sir John Moore, "bitterly thought of the morrow." In some of the churches, members are admitted on probation. Wouldn't it be a good idea to prove them at the C. &A. It. R.,.Depot, in Jersey City. and my word for it if they can stand that, they can easily resist the devil and all his works. . Need I say that I regret, that every citizen of Chambersburg regrets, the departure of General Conch and staff from the old town. There is a tinge of sadness about any change, but especially so in this case. We. had grown to know and to respect one another. We looked upon the Gen .eral 1a friend and protector, and many of us had formed such acquaintance and intimaci with his staff, is will last our lifetime. May health, suqless and happiness attend the gentlemen vvher tii eve.k they 0! IVe have ad our second snow, and the little boys hat ad a merry, time of it. The horses and the women. who must be out in all weathers, have not had a merry time of it. The sleighs were out in considerable force, but dear me! the tar and omnibus horses htive bad a terrible time. Broadway is as slippery as glass. In a short promenade, about dusk, I saw horses,- men u boytil add one lady fall, each one according to his or her instincts. A horse goes dow;n after a little effort, and when down, lies quietly, as much as to lay "come and pick me up, somebody, please." A man,kicka - up one foot and then the other, grabs at the moon, tries to kick off his own bat and then, falls. A boy goes down as though be liked it; but ii lady wriggles into a heap like a bungle of old cloths to be picked up by the first member of the - human-e society that comes along. NEW YORE, Dee.l9, 1564. , ' . . , '4 MI LITARY CHANGES.—Headquarters of the ipepartment of the Susquehana—now the Depart. Meat of Pennsylvania—were removed to Philadel phia sever;ti weeks ago, and Maj. Gen. Cadwak i ader, ending the Department, has been there since tkie o der of removal was issued. Maj. John S. Shultge, .A. G. and Capt. F. B. Swerengen A. D. C. remained here until Thursday last to close up the business, When they also left for the new bead-quarters. For nearly.a year and a half Maj. Shultze bas been . the Asst. Adjutant General of the Tiepartment and on duty at this place, and. in-all his intercourse with our people- official and social, be has won the highest measure of respect for hii , courtesy, promptness and eminent soldii;irly qualities. Capt. Swerengen has been less prom inent in his official relations with the people ; but t he leaves us as widely respected as he was known. Both have gained distinction in the field and bear honorable v ounds in vindication of their gallant ry. We are glad to know that they vvill'remain ' connected with the.4ead-quarters of the Depart ment at Philadelphia. Gen. Ferry is now on duty here as commander of the -Juniata District. He in an experienced and well tented military• commander, and the members of his'staff are well known DI : .our midst. Capt-Jahnston and Lieut. Ripley have been on duty here before when Gen. Ferry was engaged on mart martial, and we doubt not that they will prove an aeceptible to our people as tuey are effi cient in the discharge of thir important trusts on th 3 e border..

Com COMIECTION OF ENROL3IENTB.—It would be well for the people of every enrolment district to see at once to the correction of their lists. It is difficult to do it in the little time that can be al lowed when a draft is ordered' and shoot to he made; but now the officers have more time and can give it that attention its importance demands. Besides if not corrected before the quotas are fixed it is always difficult to get a correction, as it must - be made by the Provost Mansbal General at Washington, while the District Provost Marshal is competent to correct enrolments under the in structions of the authorities at Washington. We doubt lot that the enrolment in every district in ithis i torinty is very imperfect, and the errors are generally of such a character as count against the people in in up quotas. Every mairwho has moved from file district since the enrolment was made; every one since dead; everyone since en listed in the service ; together With those over or under age, and aliens—all should be ascertained by a competent and energetic committee, and the proper proofs procured and presented to Capt. Eyster, who will at once strike their names from the list, and thus lessen the quotas. Any one en rolled also who suffer from " manifest, physical disability" may be stricken off; but wh4n at all possible such claimants-for exemption should ap pear before the board-t 7 as they can now dO at any time—and be examined and discharged. Per sons claiming exemption on the grounds of alien age, over or under age, or having been two years in service, should also appear before the board in person. True they can be exempted after they are drafted; but their names remaining on the lists when the quota is ascertained imposes un just burdens upon their districts. The localcom mittees should see that all such eases appear be fore. Capt. Eyster at an early day. A copy of the enrollment of any district will be furnished by Capt. Eyster to any authorized committee of the citizens—not to individuals. The Board will short ly viA the several counties and sit at the county seafflo correct the enrolments;, but committees from any county need not wait for the appearance of the Board in their midst. The Board is making an earnest and faithful effort to do justice to all the districts in this matter, and if they are but seconded properly by the people, who have the greatest interest in the matter—no injustice will be done any district when the quotas for'anf fu ture call - are awarded. • "_ WAR INSURANCE.—A new feature is about to be•introducfld in the border counties, in the shape of insurances against depredations by the enemy. This is common in marine insurances.. Scitredly a merchant vessel goes to sea that is not insured by the owners against the rebel cruisers; but the insurance of_buildings, &c., against the enemy bas not been widely adopted. In our advertising columns to-day will be found the card of the FMB nix Fire Insurance Company of Brooklyn, prof fering war risks through Mum. H. Tailor, Esq., the agent in this place. and we eomniend it to public favor'. We made very careful inquiry into the character of the company, and wine so fully satisfied of its integrity and solvency that we had a war risk issued covering the REPOSITORY office, so if our particular friend Gen. M'Causland calls this way again and concludes to clean out or burn up the REPOSITORY, he may as well understand in advance that his vengeance will fall elsewhere' than upon its, proprietors. This character of in surance is necessarily costly ; brit tss the war is not likely to last very long, owners of valuable property wciuld do well to take such:A - As by the year. The usual price is about ten per cent. per ANOTHER SOLDIER . GONE.-Mr: John 14. ,Ross, of 'Co. B. - 190th Reg. P. ler, died in Way nesboro,' on the 12th inst., of Chronic Diarrhea, aged 22 years, 7 months and 17 days. - The de ceased was taken prisoner in Nut of Petersburg on the-12th of August and was paroled in Octo ber. He served three years with the Pennsylva nia Reserves and afterward re-enlisted. He was a good soldier. REV. SAMUEL J. NiccoLLs preached his fare well sermon to the Presbyterian congregation of this place ou Sunday a week, and on Thursday last left for his new charge in St. Louis.. It was an address of touching pathos and eloquence, and his hearers manifested the liveliest regret at his parting words. There have at yet been no candi dates named for the succession. GM'iIIROUS MovEmerr.,-, We learn that M. Samuel Gsell, and other citizens of the southern portion of the county, are making arrangements to furnish a quantity of world at Greencastle for the sufferers of Chamhersburg, free of charge, and the Railroad will transport it at actual cost. -We can assure all who mean to participate in this generosity, that there is here a wide field for theit beneficence. THE PENNSYLVANIA IMPERIAL OIL COMPANY is one of the most substantially organized Oil corporations now in tho market. It has energetic, competent and rell able business men managing it, and it is their purpose to proseroute the development of the vast wealth of the Com• pany's lands promptly and thoroughly. It is organized on a certain basis to pay dividends from the start. Its revenues from the Oil alone are more than Weirs per cent. per annum on the entire capital; and new wells are alma to be sank on lease, without cost to the Company, and one-half the proceeds will belong to the Company. In addition the valuable seal Estate owned by the Com• pony immediately opposite Oil City will be pat in market at once, reserving the Oil right, and a revenue of $lOO,OOO will be derived front that source the first year—ten per cent on the entire Capital stock. The Company has 5250,000 of its own capital In reserve belonging to the Stockholder's, and addax it altogether its resources for certain dividends are floc approached by any other Oil stock now in the market at even double the origi nal coat.

Ersiza & Dao., who are down among the ruins in their warehouse, immediately bark of their old store room, are doing a rushing business; crux& are constantly cumin` and going from the Store.
