Gossip WITII OUR FRIENDS.—How I spent
Christmas, and what came of it.
We are all to a certain degree interested in
each other, and selfish at; we may be there_ is a
vein of genial gossip coursing hrough every one's
heart that sympathizes with the doings• of his
neighbors. - Let your gossip giie his experietee,'
and some day you in return can give him yoaia.
It is Christmas times, friends, and we can afford
to be more open and more communicative now
than at any other time. Last Saturday was a
highly clear day, and at 2 o'clock I walked to the
- Camden and Amboy boat to take passage for
Philadelphia. On the way I met many, a woman
laden With the inevitable market-basket filled to
overflowing with all manner of cheer for the
coming Christmas dinner. Every one seemed
cheerful, and even jubilant, iind'with the excep
tion-of having sundry turkeys, geese and chickens
rubbed greasily against my preciOus overcoat, I
got along very well. Found the boat crowded to
excess. Managed to purchase two tickets, one
for dinner, and in a half hour sat down to a steam
boat dinner. Do you know that there is some
thing about such a meal that out-tope poetry, and
raises one to the seventh heaven of satisfaction.
The dinner costs one dollar, and a conscientious
man feels of course that it is his duty to get the
worth of his money. Then the idea of travelling,
to be getting on while he is eating. None of your
"twenty minutes for dinner," and the locomotive
whistle blowing before you have time to gobble
down one-fourth of-what you have paid for. To
know that yea' have plenty of time—indeed that
yon can wile away your time, while the huge
`boat goes puff, pall', puffing along over the salt
water wherein the very oysters were born and
bred that you are .then eating: that your boat's
keel is almost scraping the very beds upon which
the delicious bivalves have lain but an hour
- before, still warm perhaps. Who undeP' such
circumstances could eat the poor things raw,
could see them look with mute submission mto
their captors' remorseless faces, and give a sad
l-f-flap as they are—not gulphed, but inhaled
adown the gustatory canal. I always like oyster
pie under such circumstances. The rich brown
crust conceals the luscious anfmaJs beneath—they
are dead, unconscious of their:fate. 80011 to be
buried. are they in the stomach of the highest or
der of creation; man claims them as his own,.
man, the only creaturr i that has a soul—for oysters.
Yes, an oystepine fitst, then roast beef and all
manner of vegetables to keep it down, then rice
pudding and mince pie, and last of all some ap
ples. _ I take my time, crack up an acquaintance
with a New York bookseller, make a trade, talk , :
enough to promote digestion, eating all the time
stoutly until I am the last man left, all but two,
and then rise sloWly, and walk off with dignity
and a full stomach. It is glorious. When we
reached Amboy every one was ready to rash out
,the boat for the cars, as we, the most of us,
being old eoldiere, knew that the Camden and
Amboy Railroad company only provide six seats
for every seven passengers. As the plank was
hauled in, a rush was made, men, women and
children joining in the scramble. The captain
'remonstrated with terrific oaths, one lady near
me seemed to be about fainting. Somebody's
carpet-bag gut wedged into the calf of my leg, a
little boy's head became incorporated with my coat
tail, a stout passenger's elbow was imbedded in
the small of my back, my 'Vest was pressed into
the bust of tt motherly old lady with a travelling ,
basket as large as an ordinary trunk (the basket;
not the old lady); and my stomach, oysters. and
all, was-squeezed tight against the gangway rail
until I momentarily expected to become an item
fur some newspaper reporter. _Panting • and
breathless; I found a seat in the train, and reach
ed CaMden about an hour behind time, thankful
for-small favors. Ran the usual gauntlet of hack
drivers, with their -melodious invitations to the
" Grard Rouse," " Lapeer House;! " Corutnen
tie Ho-tell,' , etc., took a car at Second and Wal-
nut, hung on by the eye-lids by the side of a sol-
dier whom I suspected of the crime of being a
Yankee; asked him if he wasn't, received for
answer, " Well, ibe!" treed on a little dog to
the indignation of the corpulent owner, squeezed
out, got an exchange-ticket. couldn't find another
car and walked home.
" If there is anything in contrast, it is a good idea
to travel on the Camden and Amboy Railroad on
the way to a Christmas meeting. The re-action
from the homeless crowd to the bright warm par
lor is delightful. Well I had _my Christmas, in:
eluding a Bible, the only Bible I have, since the
memorable 30th. 1 fear that under the excite
ment I may have eaten too much, pcissibly too
much candy; perhaps it was the cake; or was it
:the raisons; now that I come to think of it. it
mast have been the pie; no—well it maid have been
the mixture—yes, it was the mixture, for I feel
Very much like an ; ambulatory slop bucket. I
met several Chambersburg friends at "The Mer
chants," and my heart fairly leaped to see them.
Our old friend, Daniel London, loomed up bright
and pleasat as ever, with an enormous label on
his breast, inscribed "Boot Black." The label
made Daniel look like a resuscitated mummy, bat
the old pleasant smile of Welcome assured-me that
there was nothings& the Egyptian about Daniel.

am not a Beecher abolitionist, but I respect a,
man for what he is worth, be ho whitit or black,
and as for Daniel London, if he gets to Heaven, I
hope I'll get there too. I had the pleasure of
meeting some of tithe staff." It was Jolly. - But
Christmas,like all other eublinary things; came
to an end, and on Monday I - had to return to
my Babel sojourning place, and at 10i A. M. took
aid Street car for the Kensington Depot. Dis
comfort commenced at once. Had to stand all
the way, and after having' ticket pitched at me
in the old way, I took my seat in a cold car. The
seat behind me had no back, indication of age or
collission, I could not decide which. We start
id; and the stove began to , smoke, notwithstand

no smoking in this car." We had to open the
windows and the ventilato r ts, sll neeless,Tor the

over this Herald editorials. Reached New York
at 3 P. /51.„in a heavy, damp, foggy rail', and,

Crowded eating saloon to ruler some .mAk toast
and a pot of coffee, price, fifty cents. Sat down
and thought over the happy day I had had in Phil
adelphia, of my Chambersbrirg home, of . thutter
loneliness of a stranger in New York, and ended
by burying my face in my hands and * well,
the waiters looked at me as though I was drunk,
and I am now thankful that I was not put out,
the only thing that saved me being that I had not
yet paid my bill. I waded to my lonely home in
the fifth story and sunk to sleep oppressed with
a rebellious heart‘s i tornach. The neat day I
had dyspepsia—this €4 came of my Christmas.

I received a copy of "The Burning of Chain
bersburg" from Rev. Dr. Schnebk, the only ac
knowledgement of my existence from friends in
Chambersbnrg. I felt grateful, for it showed me
that I was not entirely forgotten. I would praise
the book were it not that I have a place in it.
We should be under great obligations to the Dr.
for the care he has taken to preserve a memorial
of that terrible event to thil , citizens of Chambers
burg.
Bye the bye we take the opportunity "to
im
prove the occasion" by advising any friends who
visit us, not to bring along black traveling bags.
Two much respected Chambersburgers almost
"came to grief" here last, week, in consequence
of their suspicious looking valises, and I don't
wish .my friends to figure in the police court.
Verba Lap. Next week will see what we can
communicate with regard to New Year's day.

WE gave the last evening of the old year to
calm review and quiet meditation. We posted
the account of '64 with the world, and our own
private account with '64. It appeared that the
world was largely in debt togfil, and that '64 was
considerably indebted to us. Our figures will
show it: So when we retired that night we wer9,
not troubled with harrassing thoughts, but with :
out effort, gave ourself up to sleep, and saw no
visions, save of men anxiously crowding our sanc
tum to renew their subscription to our invaluable
weekly.
The new year was waiting to come in, but be
fore the last hour of the old had 'been struck, a
triumphant shout broke in upon our sleep. We
rubbed our eyes, sat upright inbed and wondered
what '64 was about. Conjecture did not satisfy
and we proceeded to the window, when, oh Shade
of Pious, Respectable and Peculiar Institution ! a
sight was presented which would have caused thine
eyes to blink and made thy soul wroth hadst thou
beheld It. A hundred black free men and women
were shouting an io triamphe over thy demise.
They stood in a line, which seemed to us to
stretch out to the crack of doom, and with their
voices blending in harmony, sang a welcome to
the first anniversary of emancipation. They se
lected the ground in front of our dwelling, we
suppose, for the reason that they did not. wish
to disturb with unpleasant reflections the friends
of the great departed. They knew that we were
not among the mourners and that our eyes at
least were dry. Among the crowd were men
and women who had borne the yoke andgfelt the
lash, but who now breathe the air of freedom,
never more to be deprived of their God-given
rights. To them and their posterity the first day
of each new year will be sacred, became it will
be the anniversary of 'the day which witnessed
the overthrow of their great oppressor, while all
will hail it as the anniversary of the day which
witnessed the grandest act of the century, the lib
eration of millions of human beings from a degra
ding bondage.
Our heart responded that night to the joyous
song. and as the crowd Iftspersed we thought that
iu posting the account of '64 with the world, we
had not charged the world enough. The old year
has been a great benefactor, but
"Ring out wild bells and let him die.'
"Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring happy bells across the snow.
,The year is iving, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring iu the true.
"Ring out [l. slowly dying muse,
And ancient forms of party strife
Ring in the nobler modes of life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws.
THE Fcatmazter at Chambershurg advertises a letter
" For the first goodlookrig girl that comes to the office..
Handsome girls must be scarce in that section, or the let.
ter would not be permitted to remain in 'the poet office a
month, and then have to be advertised.—Harrisburg Tel•
eBraPh.
THE Telegraph makes two mistakes in the
above paragraph. The trouble was not that
" handsome girls " were " scarce," but that they-
Were so plenty that our Postmaster was puzzled
as to whom to give - it to, and to help himself out
of a scrape concluded to advertise it, and then
give it to the first applicant. uncalled-for letters
do not remain in our office "a month," but are
advertised weekly. By.referring_to the list in
today's paper the Telegraph will find one for the
"The Prettiest Girl in Chambecsburg."
HEARD FEtoat.—After the battle of Gettys
burg, two- young men, James and Gracey,
of Orratown, members of Capt. Thompson's com
pany, 107th Penn's: Vols., were reported as mis.
sing, but no definite information could be givtn
as to their fate. As time elapsed and no tidings
came as to their whereabouts, all hope was given:
up by their friends, the supposition being that
they had been either killed or captured and died
in some southern prison, until a few week since,
whet'" letter was received by a friend from
James, stating that they were prisoners of war at
Andersonville, Ga., and were both in good health.
Two MORE SOLDIERS GONE.—We are called
upon this week to chronicle the death of two
more brave defenders of our Flag. Mr. David
Miller, was killed in battle near Petersburg, Va.,
on the 30th of September, 1864, aged 24 years, 10
months and 3 days.
Mr. John Mehaffey, Company, F 16th Penna.
Cavalry, died of Chronic Diarrhea, near Ander
sonville, Ga., in September last, aged 30 years
and 10 months. The deceased enlisted in 1562
and was taken prisoner March, 1e164..
RECORD 1 . 0,L1R DEEDS.-The attention of par
ties bolding unrecorded Deeds is directed to the
provirious of the Act of Assembly, which requires
that—
" All deeds and conveyances for real estate in this Coin
rnorivrealtb, shall be recorded in the office for Recording
Deeds in the County where the lands lie, within sit
months after the execution of such deeds and conveyance,
and every each deed and conveyance not recorded as
aforesaid, shall be adjudged FRAVI.ULENT AND von>
against any subsequent purchaser fora valuable consider
ation, unless such deeds be recorded before the recording
of die deed or conveyance under which oath subsequent
purchaser or mortgage shall claim." '
GAS. —The gas company has their works
again in operation and many of our citizens again
ehjoy the-benefit ofit. We would urge upon our
Town Fathers the propriety of having the street
lamps repaired without delay. The condition of
our streets and pavements, particularly' is the
burnt portion of the town, make it dangerous for
pedestrians on dark nights, and if our street lamps
were lit it would be a source of safety to citizens
and strangers.
DR. G. W. BURR, well known to many of our
readers, bas been appointed Modica/ Inspector of
the Ist Division, 20th Army Corps. Dr. Bark

IstvoßmarT TO EVERY ONE.—The citizens of
Franklin county ought now, if they never were
before, to be wide awake to the necessity of cor- .
reefing the enrollment lists inthe various districts.
Much can be done by individual effort that does

ficers. Let every man give notice of persons he
knows to have left his ward, borough or township,
and of those who have recently removed therein.
WE are indebted to ,our " friend W. S., Mesa

Piles, that he has been troubled fur eight years with an
aggravated case of Piles, and his brother was diseburged
from the army as incurable, (he being quite paralyzed
with the Piles.) Both these distressing rows were cured
with one bottle •of Dr. Strickland's Pile Remedy. The
recommendation of these gentlemen. besides the dully

- FINANCE AND TRADE.
It is as yet uncertain what measures will be
adopted by Congress to provide means fur the'
prosecution of the war. It seems settled, how
ever, that no more specie paying bonds will be
issued. •Experience has demonstrated that it
was a grave error ever to issue any indebtedness
payable in gold. It has made, by the act of the
government, the most material distinction be
tween the currency and specie, and - has , loaded
the government .with needless burdens. A new
loan bearing ten per cent interest is is now talked
of, and it is possible that it will be adopted. It
will be purely a currency loan—principal and
interest - payable in greenbacks, and it cannot be
converted into gold air per cent bonds, as eau the
seven-thirties. Considering that the 5-20's and
10-40's are payable in gold, and that the 7-30's
are convertible into gold bonds, it is doubtful
whether a new currency limn could be kept at
par with any less rate of interest than ten per
cent. It would be infinitely better, therefore, to
pay ten per cent interest than to pay 0 and 7-30
and have the securities sell below par. We
look, therefore, for a new currency loan bear
ing a very high rate of interest.
An official notification has just beeit issued by
the Secretary of the Treasury to the effect that no
subscriptions will be received to the ten-forty loan
after the 7th of January next, the loan then being
withdrawn. So important a financial movement
as this demands the attention of bankers and capi
talists who desire to secure gold bonds while they
are to be had. We believe the movement a good
one, and likely to be productive of beneficial re
sults. Public sentiment bus pointed in this direc
tion of late, and Mr. Fessenden has responded to it.
The statement of the finances of Pennsylvania
shows an.available balance of about $2,000,000.
This is un extraordinary condition of prosperity
for this state, which has been of all others most
bountiful in caring for its suffering soldiers and
their families. The balance would have been
over $700,000 larger but for the failure of the
general government to pay that suer} justly due to
the State for raking and equipping troops in
.1563.
A number, of the shares of the Bank of Chem
bersburg were sold in this place last week at from
