LOCAL ITEMS.
GOSSIP *ITO OUR FRIENDS.—When our dear
gossips read this, Christmas will be past ; the
cakes, candies, turkeys and mince pies eaten ; the
toys broken ; the presents all made, and the
Christmas of 1865 buried with`the ghosts of hun
dreds of , Christmases that have preceded. When
Clement: C. Moore wrote " The Night before
Christrnis;!' why did he not cap the climax by
giving as "The Day after Christmas." He might
have " held the mirror up to nature," in describ
ing the-agocies of overfed children ; aye, too, of
adults—sick head and stomach aches. How
solemn he might have made the line,
"In hopes that the Doctor soon would be there I"
Methinks I hear the old Doctor parodying the
words of the still older St. Nicholas—
" Now, ginger I now, Jalap I now, camphor I and squills,
tool
On, mustard ! on, croton l and down with these pills, tool"
Mark this, children. •
" lie 'poke not a word, but went straight to hie work
And filled all the bottles, his face all a smirk
And putting his cane to the tip of his nose,
And giving a nod, down the stairway he goes.
But I beard him ' ha-ha l' ere he drove out of sight,
'Merry Christmas I ha-ha! a sick child's my delight!
Well, it's a mercy we have a whole week to ta
per off in, and then comes "New Year," when
the old 'un is led out to execution with all• the
boarcsof war, and the new one is ushered in by
silly - men and boys with many a salvo from!, shot
guns and pistols. Of all the New Year customs
in our part of the country, that of the colored
people's marching in grand procession and singing
hymns, is the pleasantest and most sensible.-
- There is some poetry.in it too, notwithstanding a
few white scoundrels usually molest the harmless
trovatorea. I hope the custom will be kept up,
and that no one will be mean enough to interfere
with these poor people in their simple amuse
ments this year. Remember, tee hare allowed
them to fight for us, shoulder to shoulder.
- Important to electricians. A scientific friend
informs me that the very best " non-conductor"
he knows of, are to be found on the passenger
trains of the Camden and AM — By railroad.
I thud evil" , voter in Franklin county has read
the Thanksgiving Sermon of the Rev. John
,Chambers. It is about as flue a specimen of bla
tant disloyalty as was ever spoken. God protect
the human being he prays for ! J. C. aims at_ a
short cut to notoriety. Like the knave who'burut
the temple of Diana, or the tool who jumped into

I dreamed a dream. I thought I stood at the
Northern end of the public square, (so called from
its being an oc tagon,)
. Chambersburg, comihnia--
ly called the' Diamond, my face to the South. On
my rightstood a two story stone house, on my left a
twostory brick: the name of Miller upon the former,
of Hoke upon the latter, advancing; ou the right
I saw the name of 11rttson upon a brick_ house,
and that of Gelwicks upon another, both of two
Aeries ; and then a large three storied stone build
ing, devoted, apparently, to boots - , 'shoes and clo
thing, though-it hail the air of having formerly
been a hotel. Then wyes fell upon a large
Hotel, brick, of three stories, and containing a
- 'soothing store and a barber shop. The name of
Hoskinson was affixed to the store, that of Monks
to the shop, next door was a pleasing looking white
plastered building, of two lofty stories, with col-
MOB extending along the entire front and reach
ing to the full height of the building, which arose
in two lofty stories, there was nothing about it
to denote its .charticter, bat I looked in the open
window and seeing heaps of gold and silver, and
piles of Bank notes, I concluded it must be a
Bank: Further.on I came upon a third house in
which clothing was sold; large two storied and
filming fatback, along side of the monied insti
tution. I had now reached the southern extrem
ity of the square, at which point I turned about;
and to the right stood a two-story rough-cast
building, and the name of Hamilton aratCo. upon
a sign, setting forth that stoves and tin ware were
there for Sale. Near by arose a large Wickthree
story mansion, with a dry-goodi store in the first
corner, a bindery and printing office overhead, a
telegraph office in the middle, and a book store
at the northern corner. I paused involuntarily in
front of the book store, and experienced a kind
of choking sensation similar that one would
im
agine to be produced by attemptingi\VhTioW
hard-boiled egg, whole. A step broug tmeto a
small office like building that had the air of a to
bacco store, which unlike good wine, seemed to
need a Bash: Another step, and I stood front.
ing a portrait of Dr. Franklin. Intuitively I felt
Myself on sacred ground, even before I read the
gilded lettering on the glass door, I reverently
bowed my head and proceeded "with melancholy
steps and slow" passing a law office in a corner
of the same building. I now found myself in a
beautiful grove of lindens, fronting an immense
public building, with greeian pillars on its two
fronta i - anda cupoTo on top, crowned with an effi
gy of the patron saint of the count(r)y, on the
front was emblazoned a coat of arms, together
with a legend stating, with-the ingenuous frank
ness pertaining to the golden age, the exact cost
of the erection. Thence I came to where anoth
er huge pile of tripple storied brick reared its
vast front, within its extended compass were
law offices, a billiard. saloon, a restaurant, the
remnants of a ten-pin alley, two stores, a public
Hall, and some societyseoms. I had now reach
ed my starting point, and had turned again, with
an innate dread of coming evil, to gaze once
more; when, on a sudden I heard the tramp of
armed men, a mighty flame shot up from every
house, and in a moment I saw naught but shape
less masses of blackened bricks. Trembling I
awoke; and even yet as I write=-for my life, it
seems to methat "it is not all a dream."
GEN. Wm: J. PALMER—Oar readers Will re
member the daring exploits of Capt. Palmer here
wen Lee occupied Hagerstown end threatened
to invade Pennsylvania in 1862. Since then Capt.
Palmerhas commanded 17th Pa. Cavalry, and
returned from the servicejustly brevetted a Brig
adier. In the reports of the Secretary of War
and the Lieut. General, we notice_with gratifica
tion the - honorable mention given Ito Col. Witt. J.
Palmer and his command. The Secretary says
that to Col. Palmer belongs• the credit of giving
the "last blow to the rebellion in the southwest,"
and that blow giv en 200 miles away from the
main body, which hal sent Hood, bleediniktand
crippled, on the back trt.k. Col. Palmer's per
sonal command was the 17ut Pennsylvania (An
derson) cavalry, which compoo portion of the
- .famous division commanded by ta u , , To this di
vision belongs also the credit of havog made the
, longest continuous march of the war—
•ver 2,000
miles. This march was made in the cloehl cam
paign, and was productive of great resulta,,,,,A
attested by Gen. Grant, fit his report. Whe,
Jeff. Davis began his retreat, Col. Palmer was
, ordered to follow him to the " ends of the earth,"
and it was his command that captured Jeff's
Body Guard, cut off the trans-Mieshilippi region
. from the " stern statesman," and drove him into
the-hands of the 4th Michigan foraging party who
•captured him.
• The 17th Pennsylvania cavalry,
in which was as fine Pennsylvania blood as flows,
was the nucleus of the division, and its history
forms a prominent part of the histOry of the suc
cess of the WeeternAnnies : It is very gratify
ing toss,, as Pennsylvanians, that the name of
Palmer appears among the very few picked out
•by Mr. Stanton and Gen. Grant for special men
tion in their reports to Congress. It is an evi
dence that where deeds warrant it our Govern.
ment commends valor, and that fame does not
•depend upon fulsome puff* of sensational repor.

TuE FESTIVAL.—Vre had the pleasure of at
tending the Chriatmastival given by the Lu
theran Sabbath School this place on Christmas
night, and believe we can safely say that it was
the finest affair of the kind ever gotten up in our
town, and do not believe that the decorations
were ever excelled-this side of Philadelphia.
We shall not attempt to describe the beauty of
the scene that met our eyes as we entered the
church. The large seirikircular stage, surmount
ed by a ilome supported by stately evergreen col
umns with their evergreen brackets &c., the whole
surmounted by a burning cross, a right and left
wing on which stood large tieea beautifully ,dec.
()rated with gifts prepared - for the Infant school.
The whole forming a scene which will not soon
be forgotten, and which must be seen to be enjoy
ed. The church was densely packed, and many
no doubt were compelled to go milli) , unsatisfied.
For the benefit of the latter class, and all others,
we are glad to hear that another perfoirmance
will be given on Monday evening, Jan. Ist / when
a Musical Programnie r may be expected, and also
many additions to the already handsome decora
tions. We advise all our fenders to attend. See

MRSS/OE FROM THE PRESIDENT.
Prelided Johnson has sent the following spec-
ial medsagt to the Senate in answer to a resole
tionofteredby Senator Cowan. It was accom
panied witt a report from Gen. Grant on the same
subject, aceirding with the tone of the message :
To tAe Senate (the United States:
In reply b the resolution adopted by the Sen
ate ou the lth instant, I have the honor to state
that the rebellion waged by a portion of the peo
ple against to properly constituted authorities of
the Gevernarnt of the United States hits been
suppressed; tat the United States are in posses
sion of every State in which the insurrection ex
isted ; and the, as far as could be done, the courts
of the United gates have been restored, post offi
ces re-establielnd, abd steps taken to put.into ef
fective operatic the revenue laws of the coun
try.
As the result' of the measures instituted by the
Executive, wittthe view of including a resump.
tion Ab e funetans of the States comprehended
in the inquiry °She Senate, the people in North
Carolina,South (mobilo, Georgia, Alabama, Mis
sissippi, ouisiars, Arkansas, and Tennessee, have
recognized their respective State governments,
and " are yieldinAobedience to the laws and Gov
ernment of the 'Med States" with more willing
ness and greater promptitude than under the
circumstances cold reasonably have been antici
pated.
The proposed asendment of -the Constitution
')roviding for theatolition of slavery forever with
al* limits of theCountlY has been ratified by
ea"Ne of those totes with the exception of
MiBßlSlftwi, from ibich no official information
has been e i ve d , l ad in nearly all of them meas•
urea have n adofed or are now pending to
confer upon dm° the privileges which are
essential to thei nfort,protection, and securi
ty. In Florida anolsxas the people are making
commendable progTq in restoring their State
governments, and a aoubt is entertained that
they will at an early it* be in a condition to
resume all of their pittical relations with.the
Federal Government.
In "that portion of he Enion lately in rebel
lion" the aspect of affirs is elore premising than
itiliew of all the cirmststances mum well have
been expected. The Ipple , throaghoti the en
tire South evince , a lauthle desire to rennv their
allegiance to the 6,5;01-lent, and to mpg , the
devastations of war by
'Prompt and cheerful re
turn to peaceful pursuit'. Au abiding faith ' 4
entertained that their Jone will conform to their
Ptffessions, and that in acknowledging the snpre
llicY of the Constitution and the laws of the Uni
tel States their loyalty will be unreservedly given
ttf!he Government, whose leniency . they cannot
ref to appreciate, and whose fostering care will
ma restore them ' tio a condition of prosperity.
I€ l l true that in-some of the States the demoral
ixilt effects of the War are to be seen in occasion
al Iliorders ; but these are local in character, not
frolent in occurrence, and are rapidly disappear
in; as the civil authority is extended and sustain
ed Perplexing qbestions were naturally to be
ettted from the_ great and sudden change in
thttelations between the two races ; but systems
aregradually developing themselves under which
thefreedman will receive the protection,to which
hes justly entitled, and, by_means of hls labor,
mac himself a useful and independent member
of be community in which he has his home.
Irem all the information in my possession, and
fret that which I have recently derived from the
mot tenable authority, I am induced to cherish
thomelief that sectional animosity is surely and
mirky merging itself into a spirit of nationality,
andthat representation, connected with a proper
ly ;tasted system of taxation, will result in a
harsonious restoration of the relations of the States
to te National Union.
Te.report of Carl Shurz le - herewith transmit
ted riquested by the Senate. No re portsfrom
the ion. John Cuvode have been received by the
Preident. The attention of the Senate is invited
to 03 accomp - anying report of Lieutenant Gene
ral Out, who recently made a tour of inspection
throgi several of the States whose inhabitants
partipated in the rebellion.
ANDREW JOHNSON
WAItsGTON, D. C., Dec. 16. 1865..
TEEPteSS is one gethcrwirmest supporters of
conciiition and peace on , the bases suggested by
the President ; but its temper iloften sorely tried,
as will be judged from the following " Occasion
al" nob from its Editor, Col. Forney, in Wash
ington:
" I Rex this morning, a gallant Southerner
from Alabama, who ran for Congress in one of the
mountain districts., and was defeated by a Rebel
General, whose sole claim to the votes was the ,
fact that be had lost a limb in the rebel service,
and also because the people knew that he , never
would tale this same oath. 1 The Unionist receiv
ed 2,100 rotes, and the Rebel 3,200, and the lat
ter openly declared he never would take the Con-
Aressionat obligation. Of the six members and
two Seuators elected from Alabama, but one can
take the oath. Now, it may be called a hard
ship to leave the people of such districts without
representation; hut would 'it 'not be a greater
hardship to allow them to believe that their rebel
-11,,111 was in fact creditable, by admitting the men
wntAtd them into battle, to seats in the Congress
of a stv,,„
ethened and restored Union! This in
fact, woi,A ,
be tomake loyalty infamous instead
of treason."
Tim following resolutions were offered and
adopted unanimously at the late meeting of the
"Loyal Pennsylvanians" in Washington :
Resoled, That the just, fearless and lawful
positionissumed by Hon. Edward McPherson,
at theyoganization of the Thirty-ninth Congress
of the' Wed States, in omitting from the roll of
the Hots the names of those who claimed to be
represedttives from the States so recently in
Rabelliot 'meets with the unqualified approbation
of the Nil Pennsylvanians of this city, and as a
much einetned ana honored member of our As
socialimsve heartily thank him for his action.
Resold, That we are gratified to know that
he has len re-elected Clerk of the House of
Represeatives, a position the duties of which
he dischrrd with so mneh ability and accep
tance thug the past two years, as evinced by
the mann,of his re-election, and that we are
proud of to as the representative of the great
State of kinsylvania in the organization of the
present Cgress.

three times a day, and away goes at once all the pain re

ness in the hack or legs, rub the spinal (*lama well, In the
manner mentioned, and you may depend upon a certain
and speedy cure. Some prefer to rub with Ready 'Relief
