Gossie Wax Ct h FniENDS.—Philadelphia
—Thanksgiving day. F have eaten:and I have
drunken to my fill, in spite of what hi vulgarly
called "a game leg." "atoms of turkey are be
tween my teeth, cranberry stigns are on my shirt
bosom, turkey fat oozes front my cheeks, sweet
potatoes lie heavy upon spy—conscience, the
flavor of oysters is upod my palate, the scent of
celery pervades my beard, old government Java
asserts its perfumed presence, and a snags of veg
etables, overpowered in essence by that famous
antiscorbutic, the onion, gives my breath the
Sweet savor that reminds one of the Moluccas or
Araby the Blest. Need I say that I am happy
and thankful to the Magnate who appointed the
seventh of December as a'day of thanksgiving,
eating and prayer. How was it with our Chain
. bersburg- gossips? Wsthout private advices I
can emagine many a score of turkeys and many
a hecatomb of chickens and ducks to have been
offered up upon the national altar; together u ith
many a mess of sour kraut and spec, to say noth
ing of strings of puddings and sausages enough
to have - girdled the town. The blood) fiddler Ne
ro wished for one neck to his people that one LIM,:
might satisfy his evil wishes, my philanthropy
makes me long that I, in common with all my
' countrymen, (north and south) might possess the
stomach and appetite of all the rest—dyspeptics
always excepted. My hu3t gasping wish, an hour
since, commenced: "many happy returns - -and
then became inaudible, either from a supera
bundance of sentiment or from a want of breath.
It was au advantage to eat by myself, as modesty
ever revolts at publicity. In goodearnest, we of
Chambersburg have much to be thankful for, our
circumstances are much better than they were a
year ago ; many of us now have homes who then,
had not; then we were in danger from a barba
roils enemy, now we can sit &m u, no—not under
our own vines and lindens—fur they are gone, but
on our own curb-stisties, no one daring to molest
us, or (we own the charge,) make us afraid.
Week before last, uaindfidot,the necessity that
Our gossiping become, I encl r oled a fat bundle of
it irtla go'dd sized envelope, directed (secant=
artesii,)",stainped as the law directs, cone m,
some moil-delectable matter carefully elabora
ted: now, mark me, I bring no charge against any
United States official, whither in or out of the
Postal Department, but that letter which looked
as though it contained-a package of Bank notes,
notwithstanding it was proply mailed by a care
ful and responsible person, never came to hand.—
We can all enjoy the joke in picturing to ourselves
the blank expression of the miserable scrub who
stole and opened the letter of an editor, thinking
it to be of_any value. Go to, poor wretch, thou
thoughtest in thy ignorance.,,l dar - tiot say inno
cence, to commit a crime; 'twas but a misdemea-
nor. Go to. we repeat, thou art pardoned, buzz
away, like ?tide Toby's fly, "the world is wide
enough for thee and me." Moral—mailS as well
as females are not to be trusted.

"My goose, she -." Excuse my recur
ring to what will ever be an epoch in my life.—
Five weeks after I received my wound, Preceived
a visit from Mr. James M. Shelley, of Keokuk,
lowa, on crutches. He was seated beside me on
that unfortunate day, and . the lust I had seen of
him was—his coat-Mil—as he • seemed to fly
through the air Aard the centre of the car, but
I will :et him tell his own story as near as I can
remember: " You -- may recollect that I was sea-
" ted alongside of you at the time of the accident,
" at the first shock I looked back, and saw the
" car immediately behind us raised up seine three
" feet, apparently ready to crush us: I made a
" spring to-get as far out of its wayas I could,
" and awaited its approach AA ifh avVe: for I well
" knew that if we became detached in front
"first, that . the momentum (as our front - yvheels
" were gone would drive the rear cars right
"through us. I received a blow upon my heel
" that I did not at the time think serious, and
" when the train was stopped (we fortunately
" did become detached in the rear first), I limped
" forward, and finding -the floor gone, where yotr
" had been seated;-I felt sure that you had gone
a through. I found you lying on the grass with
"your leg torn, and was glad;'_though surprised,
"to find you alive (I then recollected the fact,
" for the first time.--Gossir) " . Upon my arrival
" in the city, the same night. I tried in cain.tu get
" a room at the Continental and at the Girard,
" and finally my foot being very painful by this
"time went to the St. Lawrence, when to my
" importunities for a room, I was at last told
"that there was but one unoccupied room in the
" house, and that hod been rrserred for Mr. and
" Mrs. Bag. " nett'," mid I, " you' may give
" me the room, for MN. Barr was killed thin day
-by the same accident that injured me." A sad
'coincidence." I' need not say I was glad to

yet the testimony of the Irishman, in the steam-

A New CLOCK.—Every person tw grati
fied to learn that there is to be a new clock upon
the Court House. We have been informed that
the contract for it has been made, and that all
doubt about the matter is happily at rest. Th e
clock will be of the newest and most imptoved
style, with a transparent face which will be
ble by night in all parts of the town. For fear
that'our Ladies may not make the discovery ; we
will confidentially whisper in their ears, that by
simply looking out of their windows, they can
tell to the-very minute when their tardy and be
:- nighteeage lords return to the bosoms of their
I
families. We hope the ladies will not abuse their
power. If after a fair trial. it will be found that
they do, we will move fur an extinguishment of
the light. =
Our Commissioners decided sometime ago with
admirable judgment and good taste - to place the
figureufFranklin upon the Court House. With
- out the example of his staid and steady habits,
we fear the morals of our town would very soon
have gone out of print.
We have been told that the Commissioners, af
ter considering thepropriety of purchasing a clock
fur the Court House, had at last determined not
to do so. But at this juncture the matter was
taken hold of by our enterprising and public
spirited citizen, A. 11. M'Culloh, Eq. Arrange
ments weee 'consummated - by him for the pur
chase of a clock. To his efforts, therefore, the
community is greatly indebted fur this most ac
ceptable and necessary convenience. Had his
perseverance been Jess than it was, old Ben.
Franklin would have stood mute and silentupon
his watch-tower in the future, as he did in the
past. But now, thanks to Mr. M'Culloh, it is de
creed that. he shall have a voice in his lonely cu
pola. to speak to us and to the generations that
shall come after us. Hour by hour that warning
voice will proclaim to us the birth And death of
days and years. The bride will hear it with
gladness, promising the quick coining of the
bridegroom. The aged will hear it with sadness
heralding - the steady approach of the "King of
Terrors. li'will proclaim the birth day and fu
neral day of whole genis'rallons. Much morality
it will teach us too, if we but heed its lessons.
Whilst we are letting golden opportunities glide
away from us and squandering - precious hours
that will never more return, it will nut be silent,
but will speak out against our profligacy. Young
man, it you aspire to be great and good, to till
the ear of fame with the renown of your achieve
ments, listen to and prize the teachings that come
down trom the tower of Franklin. vocal with the
'coke of time.
We might moralize' further, bpt, have said
enough to'awaken our community to an appreci
ation of .the benefits conferred upon us, by the
enterprise of Mr. 11'eulloh.
We trust our friend Alex. will neter have oc
casion to be out so lute at night as to suffer any
inconvenience from the transparency of the clock's
dial, and thus enjoy the felicity of Caudle or any
other style of lectures.
Nottmm. SCHOOL.—It is desirable that every
School District :in the County be represented in
the Convention to meet in this Bore' on Friday,
the 29th inst. To this and the Board of School
Director's of each district should at phce call a
meeting of its citizens, and appoint three dele
gates, tuftbers-of the'-School Board or other cit
iZens, to represent it; these sh'ould be able to
speak authoritatively for their district as to the
probable amount of subscriptions of stock, or
contributions, that could be raised by it. A meet
ing of the citizens of Chambersburg will be held
in the Court-Room on Thubday evening, the 14th
inst. at 7 o'clock. We hope our citizens are duly
awake to their true interests,Mthis matter. No
trivial excuse should deter our educators, pro
fessional men, merchants and mechanics from be
ing present. A rare opportunity offers to secure
a great and perinanent benefit to ourselves and
succeeding generations. Every one will, at once.
see the importanee of making an effort to secure
a large and flourishing Institution in our midst,
and such the Normal School of the 7th District
will certainly be.
SuoT Himstii.r.—On Saturday, the 2d inst.,
Mr. Job Black, a young man of about twenty years
of age, and,a resident of Shippensburg met with
a andfhen and nielancholly death by the accidental
discharge of a pistol. It appears that after sew
oral unsuccessful efforts to discharge the pistol,
and believing that the eapZ . were worthless and
spent, he seized the piece by the barrel and viith
the muzzle pointing towards his body struck it
against a wall which produced ignition and sent
the ball through his body in .the region of.the
heart. After the discharge he walked several
rods to the house bf his brother-in-law, and report
ed that he was wounded, and before examination
vas made, fell dead. He leaves an aged father
and mother, who looked upon him as the princi
pal support of their declining years.

ort:NiNts,;cENts IN CONGRESS
The Wash} - Won correspondent of the New
York Tribune writes us follows concerning the
opening scenes in Congress:
All the interest attending the opening id Con
gress centered in the House. The action of the
caucus, and the known determination of Mr. Mc-
Pherson in regard to the roll, made* the result a
foregone conclusion: At the Manic time, the will
of the minority had not transpired. and it was not
known whether we should escape the fillibustiT
ing scenes of the note-rebellion Congresses.
The Senate organized very quietly. The'beau
tiful weather, soft and warm as Spring, attracted
thousands to the Capitol, and long before the
hour of 1 . 2 the galleries of both houses overflow.
The floor is covered with a busy and merry
throng, as becomes the atrst Congress after the
war. As the Clerk quietly trips up the side aisle
a buzz of curiosity rnns through the multitude,
for this middle-sized, smooth-faced, young man,
with'hlue eyes, high forehead, and light sunny
hair, has a responsibility that may change the
destinies of America. It seems to rest easily as
he rolls over his,taper iu - a business-like way and
quickly raps mrthe desk as the-spinute hand
touches 12. - The busy audience separates, and,
its we have the opinion of Mr.,oolfiix Mr believ
ing- it to - be the ablest House 111 Many years, we
look at it with seine interest.
Thaddeus Stevens. who bears his 70 t ears as
though they were do, looks stern, grim and im
passive. Schenck, of Ohio, bends over him, and
considenng he vi as it Yankee monitor in Balti
more, looks quite amiable and harmless to-day.
As John Sherman's competitor fi,r the Senate he
excites Some attention John Sherman seems
quite easy, however, a 4 he stands near by return
ing the salutations of Senator Minis, who looks
as though he were low on a wool-sack, grave,
earnest, majestical, and Henry S. Lane, of Indi
ana, who carries his never absent cane, and seems,
like a Methodist exhorter, anxious to improve-the
occasion. Banks quietly takes a back seat, look
ing fresh and natty, rather graver and more
marked than when lie led the stiuggling party of
Freedom to a Congressional victory nearly ten
years ago. Mr. Boutwell, his colleague, with it
thoughtful, angular face, ridged forehead, and a
. generally keen Boston manner- enters into con
versation with him.
Slr. Coll az, the prospective Speaker, is the cen
ter of a group, and err one ple.lnut AAQ kopeful,
while Mr. Washburne, the father of the House,
as they call him, smiles grimly upon his children.
Bingham of Ohio, who looks like a fanatic, is
conversing with Kelly of Pennsylvania, who does
not ; • While Roscoe Col:Wing, with a crowd of
New-Yorkers, is discussing the late election in
that State.
The - -Cleek quietly begins to call the roll, and as
he passes Tennessee Mr. Maynard arises and en
deavors to interrupt him, that Tennessee may be
heard. The request makes a bum, but nothing
more, for the Clerk declines to hear him.- The
call finished, and again Maynard strives to gain a
hearing, but Mr. Morrill quickly trips him up by
moving to pio ceed to the election of Speaker.—
Again Maynard beseeches, but the majority, un
der the head of the resolute Stevens, insist upon
order rather sternly. -
Brooks arises to his feet, and, In a speech that
reQds like an editorial of The Express, informs
the House that unless it changes its. course and
throws open the doors to the, 90 paisting, unre
constructed brethren in gray, we might as. well
not hate a country - ; which the crowd listened to
rather impatiently. although Brooks becomes wild
and declamatory. After a tilt with Stevens,
which creates a shout of laughter, and a remon
strance that makes Long John Wentworth so an
gry that he continues his indignation to Mr. Orth
of Indiana, Brooks yields, and Stevens, in his
slow, caustic, halt-sardonic way, quietly forces
his motion. assisted by the snappy, peisistant,
nervous Mr. Farnsworth. Mr. Johnson, a Penn
sylvania Dutchman, tries to stop the tide, but it
rolls over him.
Maynard takes his hat and dissolves in the
crowd, and Mr. 31orrill nominates Mr. Colfax.
Mr. Wiufieldnoininates James Brooks, amid much
'good humor, not malicious, but rather commiser
ating the New-Yorker's immense minority. All
this has just 'taken - thirty-three minutes. The
call begins, and John B. Alley answers, " SellUy
ler Colfax." In this halt' hour a resolute majori
ty, calmly, without anger, with rare good humor,
indeed, quietly presents the disintegrations of the
Republican party, and informs the unreconstruc
ted in gray that the way to enter Congress is not
to kick open the doors.
As Mr. Alley begins the roll, the scene is his
torical. The galleries are crowded. The vacant
spaces around the members' seats are crammed
with Senators, and Judges, and Generals, and all
manner of people, silent and dense. The spell
does not last long, for the yeas roll tip so rapidly
that Mr. Colfax gets tired marking his roll, and
leans over to converse with Mr. Garfield. We
improve the time to glance over the scene, and
feel that if there can be anything in phrenology
the present house is a remarkablettody of men.
How the-types of nationality mingle and blend.
The Eastern delegations represent mentality ; the
Western, strength; the Middle, discipline. Mr.
Stevens has a most obedient majority, and it votes
and acts as one man. The spirit of anxiety slow
ly passes away, and by the time Mr. Colfax takes
the oath and makes his brief, earnest speech, and
proceeds to the practical business of presiding, a
business that suggests in its monotony and glib
ness the profession of an auctioneer, the scene is
over ; the corespondents bustle away; the galle
ries become hungry ; the ladies take wing, and
the House goes oir with the slowly-moving gabby
business, called legislation.

Blue Mass, and other preparations of Mercury, actual.

which they profess to cure. And yet this corrosive mine
ral so denounced by the allopathic doctors, is .prescribed
by them almost universally iu Liver Complaint. Con
sumptioCtif Lungs, &e.
. THE MANDRAKE PILLS
are composed entirely of roots and herbs, obtained front
the great storehouse of Nature, and their salutary effects
will•appear as soon as thknedichne is brosht to the test
of a fair experiment. ' SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE
PILLS do nhOproduct any nausea or sickness of the atom
ash ; but wheri given for Dyspepsia, it may be proper to
lase them in connection with SCHENCK'S SEAWEED
TONIC. By this judicious treatment the digestive facul
ties are speedily restored to their full vigor, and the worst
cases of indigestion may be cured.
When we reflect that the liver is the hugest internal or
gan of the body, that to it is assigned - the important duty
of filtering the blood and preparing the bile, that it is
subject to many disorders, and that when it is diseased or
-Inactive the whole body suffers sympathetically, it is not
surprising that a medicine which can restore the healthy
operations of the Liver shoulifprisluce wonderful chan
ges in the general health, and effect cures which may ap:
peer to h.. almost miniculens. Headache of long contin
uance, severe paint In the aide, breast and shoulders, ach
ing of tht limbs, a feeling of general weakness and
wretchedness, and other alarming and distressing
toms, indicative of imperfect or disordered notion of the
liver, are speedily removed by the We rd SCIIEN , OK'S
MANDRAKE PILLS.
Costiveness, piles, bitter or sour eructations, and that in
describable feeling of oppression, mental anziet)/, langnor,
lethargy, and depression of spirits whiclq unfit a man for
the management of business and the enjoyment of life, are
all relieved by the use of SCIIENCICS MANDRAKE
PILLS.
S( ISENCli.—Drar Sir • I take pleasure iu sending
3 on a certificate in 'addition to many you have already re
ceived from suffering humanity. I can scarcely find lan
guage suflicientlystrong to express my heartfelt gratifien:
lion of the wonderfol cures your MANDRAKE PILLS
and SEAWEED TONIC have effected in the entire mire
of one of the most stubborn cases of the affection of the li
ver. For thrte years I suffered beyond description; all
my friends, as well as myself, came to the eonelusion that
my time in this life wan short. Such was the terrible con
dition to whirl, I was reduced that life to me had become
a burthen; my whole systetn was id a state of intiammatiou;
I could not eat, I could not sleep; my whole body was till
ed with pain, swelling would arise in my wrists and an
kles, rendering them totally useless. On several occasion
I Nan attacked with a rush of blued to the bead,'which
would fell tne to the ground, and f would be carried away
for dead. I applied to several eminent physicians of our
eity, a Ito administered all the medicines that they thought
would reach my ease, but of no avail.
Ono of them said he mold do no more for me, and url•
•ised me, as a last resort, to drink cud thee oil. Not isle
ishing tla , horrid trash, I declined to take It. Accident
put your ails ertisesuent in 4 ray heeds. I called on you;
you examined me and told me the nature of my disease.
You then ordered motile and Mt& with an observ
ance of diet, pleaging_your word that In one week I would
find myself another men. I followed your advice, and, as
you predicted: mt astonishing cure was effected. I con
booed your Pills and Tonic fur some time, and now thank
Dud fur his goodness, and your valuable medicine. I our
liner more restored to perfeut health. I most earnestly re
commend these who are suffering . from affection of the
