The Wsiteerl.
Work on the Gettysburg Railroad is
progressing quite satisfactorily. Paw
ing along the line from this place to
New Oxford, the other day, we were
struck with the amount of work done
since we had previously viewed it. The
rock-cut at New Oxford is nearly
through, and it is expected that the
track-layers may resume operations
sometime in April, or, latest, by the
first of May. The bridge across the
Conowago is finished—a substantial
piece of work, wcll put up, of first-rate
materials, and !alculated to lust very
many years. The grading is completed
frrnn the creek to neur Swift Ban,
where John Shultz has, say, a month's
work to do. Probably the heaviest
grading yet to be done is in the rock-cut
in the rear of John Miller's, west of the
Turnpike, but Mr. Conway is pushing
work with all due energy, and will
"'keep out of the way of the trneli-lay
ers." Dolan and Lane have little more
than " trimming up" to do—and thus
the entire grading and bridging of the
line will be finished.
So far as we are able to judge, the
work is well done, reflecting no little
credit upon the contractors, Messrs.
!swim and TAYLOR, with whom the
Company were fortunate in contract
ing. They ha-.-e shown themselves
ietiable and honorable men, always
ready to fulfil
, l every contract to the
letter.
The road from New Oxford to Han
over in in fair running order ; wherever,
by reason of frost, or other cause, bal
asting and dressing up are wantod, it
is now being done under the superin
tendence of Mr. Poland. The read is
a very smooth one, and cannot but
give satisfaction to all who ride on it.
It may not be out of place to urge up
on the attention of our friends the
Bonds now offered by the Company.
The investment is certainly a safe one,
and yielding as it does 71 per cent. per
annum, and free from taxation, it holds
out inducements such as can be found
in few securities.
The Ties* of ♦prll.
This notable periol of time, with
array of bonds, mortgages, notes, an'
all sorts of obligations to pay ; its piles
of money to lead, and big suins of mon
ey to borrow ; its " settlements" of
carious kinds—to say nothing of its
" inovings "—is treating closely upon
our heels; and those of us who are in
debt, will have to stir our stumps pret
ty briskly ; or it will find us unprepared
for the ordeal through which wo must
pass. The near approach of this 'day
of reckoning has aroused the poetic
frelings of a young Chester county bard,
who sends to the editor of the Republi
can, from his country home, the follow
ing verses, which indicate that be is
looking ahead Cur breakers. We hope
Ile may strngglo safely through them:
THE rigs? or A riu..
Dear me. dear me, I shudder,
Ar the thought runs through ray brain,
To think the first of April
Is about to come again.
The doings of the twelve mouths,
Which hasty time gives flight,
I roll o'er in my memory,
To see if all %eft right.
The crops'that Nature gate me,
I put them to good use,
And used the old man's caution
Against the labyrinths of youth!.
I rose as day's grey streaks
Jler morning visage bore,
To press the labors of the day
lty adding_to my store.
Bdt still. alas! with every care,
I fear l'iskrather'short;
Money matters make roe dull;
Mr pile's not as it ought.
A mortgaged farm bears interest,
And other debts•acerue ;
I—dread the first of April;
It approaches rather blue.
Low prices for my gathered grails
On every hand I greet;
I fear 11l have great trouble
)4y horrid debts to meet.
Dia still, I's, onward in my way,
An honest course purst,e,
And trust in Providence for help
To see me safely through.-
Sebes! Exlitbities.
By a card in another column, it will
be seen that the Free Schools of the
Borough intend giving a Union Exhi
tion, in the New School louse, on the
6th of April. From the efforts being
male by the Teachers and those con
cerned, it promises to be highly success
ful. The Blues' Band are engaged,
which will add greatly to the interest
Qf the Exhibition. •
Tickets can be had of the Scholars,
TeteWs, and at A. D. Buehler's Book
Store. The proceeds of the Exhibition,
above the incidental expenses, will be
appropriated to the purchase of maps and
other nesessary apparatus for the New
School Howse. The object is a very
commendable one, 4.n d we hope every
one will encoarag,e it.
-The last Lecture of the series,
before the Young Men's Christian As
sociation, was delivered in the German
&formed church, on Monday evening

As this is the season of the year when
people begin to clean up and make
things look fresh for the approaching
summer, the following receipes for the
best and cheapest whitewashes, both
for the outside and inside of houses,
from the Scientific American, will no doubt
be raccived with pleasure, by all who
study comfort and cleanliness:
Take half a bushel of fresh-burned
white limo, and slack it either with hot
or cold water in a tub or barrel. When
thoroughly slacked, dissolve in the wa
ter required to thin the lime, two quarts
of common salt, stir it thoroughly, add
one quart of sweet milk, and it is ready
fur use to put ou with a brush.
This wash is for the outside of build
ings, tenets, Sc. , and is very durable.
Some put glue in whitewash, and others
flour and rice paste; but these render
it liable to scale off in very dry weather.
It may be made a cream color by the
addition of ochre.
The above whitewash is all that can
be desired for the interior of houses,
excepting the salt, it must be omitted,
as it tends to imbibe moisture. French
white is superior to lime washes for the
ceilings of rooms, as it is not so liable
to turn yellowish in color, but it rubs
off so easily that it cannot be used for
side walls.
Accident.
Grottos WILDASIS, m the employ of
Mr. M. Iliodbcck, in West Manheim
township, this county, met with a sad
and fatal accident on last Monday. Mr.
Wildasin was driving a team from this
place homewards, and by some cause
or other the line broke, the horses be
ing in full speed, and in tho act of dis
mounting from the saddle horse, he got
entangled in the line and was dragged
on the ground for some distance, bruis
ing him so much as to cause his death
on the following day. Mr. Wildasin

A "Slippery Customer."
This is the designation which the
Washington Union applies to Senator
DoUglas. In alluding to the speech be
proposed to make (and has since made)
in the Senate upon the Kansas squab
ble, the Union says
As Judge Douglas cannot reasona
bly be expected to say anything new on
the subject, the anxiety everywhere
manifested by the Black Republican
leaders, that he shall have an oppor
tunity of making , e another speech against
the LecomptonConstitution, can only
be satisfactorily accounted for upon the
supposition that they doubt his fidelity,
and desire to have him more thorough
ly committed to their doctrines. Hav
ing ourselves found him a tolerably
slippery customer, we cannot blame
his old enemies and new-made allies for
entertaining fears of his sincerity, and
for wishing to get the political noose
well drawn about his neck. Oar expe- j
rience is, however, that the knot can
never be so tied that he will . not slip it,
whenever he thinks it necessary for his!,
own political advancement to do so.
We thought we had him tight and fast
on the Nebraska bill, and that he was so
openly and thoroughly committed to
its principles as to render a retreat
from them utterly impossible ; but we
were mistakeh. - He has Blipped thro'
our fingers without the slightest die
culty, and assatfied, with the moat un
blushing assurance, a position directly
the opposite to that which he occupied
less than six months ago. The Black
Republicans may gather wisdom and
learn # lesson from our experience,
which may prove profitable to them
in the future." •

For your loss to her is gala ;

Yoa will meet her soon again.
She has only gone to Ilearen,
She is only resting there,
Now a crown to her is given,
Now she rests from toil and care
Though a gentle wife, and mother,
From al iS world of sin has gone,
She is happy in another,
singing there an endless song—
Think of her with holy pleasure,
As among the shining throng,
Who bare laid above their treasure,
And bad served their Saviour long.
There she ices the loving Sari ,
Who for her salvation died,

Though he reigns above in Glory,
Yet he listens to the soup,
To the oft-repeated story,
Of those holy happy throngs.
Though your child was "mild and lovely,
Gentle as the summer breeze,
Pleasant as the air of evening,
As it floats among the trees;"
Though your daughter dear has left you,
Though her loss you deeply feel,
Yet God that bath bereft you ;
Re can wound and He can heal.

tract. A solution is requested.

Buried Alive.—A Distreming Case.—
A letter dated Holland, Erie bounty,
March 15, says :
A very afflictive dispensation of Pro
vidence has taken place within twenty
miles of this place. A Presbyterian
minister named Reed was going to at
tend a meeting of the presbytery. He
stopped over night with another minis
ter at a private houmb. Mr. Reed was
taken with a fit in the night and it was
supposed he had died. The other min
ister being in a hurry to got to the
meeting in season bad him buriedi tho
next day. On his return from meeting
he left word at Oxford, that their min
ister was dead and buried. His friends
went' immediately to get his -remains
and bring them to Oxford,when to their
great sorrow they discovered that,.he
had been buried alive. The cover of
the coffin was split., And his shroud was
completely torn offend lie turned nearly
on his face. He was a bachelor, and a
very worthy man. his dreadful death
is much lamented.
