The last number of the London Spectator remarks as follows, in a long review of Pres ident Lincoln's life and Services: "To oar minds no funeral oration eter ex ceeded in pathos that spoken by the Presi dent, in dedicating as a national cemetery part of the battle-field of Gettysburg. — Nor can the message in which, before the issue of the emancipation proclamation, he entreat ed the border States to sacrifice slavery, not at their own expense, but at the expense of the nation; be easily surpassed in the depth and earnestness of its entreaty." And, again, Speaking of his religions char acter, it flays: 'Werhaps Mr. Lincoln's religions faith and simplicity aro the only traits which still remain unappreciated by the American peo ple at large. For ourselves, we cannot read his lest inaugural address, dolivereci only five weeks before his assassination, without a renewed conviction that ft it; the noblest political document known to histerT, and should have for thq, nation and statesmen he left behind him something of a sacred and Jtlmost prophetic authority.

R. E. S fIOSCiRiPTIOI4.4.—;As the w.ork of confessing for Railroad Stock has been com menced we Would urge upon citigens of both awn and country-the importance of deciding at Owe what they intend to do, so that when called upon ; they will be ready to subscribe without putting the canvassers off from time to time with the plea that-they-have - not - yet . made up their Minds in regard to the matter. Indecision—tit-reform ce-to-nit,enterptise — o so much importance, after years of agitation, is inescusable. We would Suppose that there was not a Mon in the town 9i.• neigh borhooti,.who was not fully prepared; if lie intended to do anything at all, -to put--down the amount when called on. If men must be t waited upon half a dozen of times, for their subscriptions, one month would scarce ly spfSee to finish the work in the Borough that might be done in two days. If citizens are in earnest and' really desire a railroad they should act as becomes men and nut old women. They have just as much interest at stake as those who are operating for the sue. eess of the great work and should not thus seek' to retard it. There is such a thing as being in earnest, half in earnest, and not—in earnest at all, awl we fear butfew of these "wait a while" individuals are of the first i ri 7 - g - - - 1 s, evoryt soription for the stock o. Railroa'd Extension to thia place have been opened and-that agents have been appointed to canvass generally in behalf of this enter • rise. Being an old friend ,of this project, the public will excuse me if I speak with the zeal its importance demands. Is if a de batable point that this road 8411 be made.? That our fertile and beautiful valley should remain longer isolated from the business and commercial world, at such vast expense and ineonvenience,-to-all-elasses-afour-comm uni ty. That a railroad ought to be made that would materially advance the price of real property—give the farmer a speedy cash market for his products,—stimulate the me chanical, mercantile interests,—build up new • departments of business—and increase in every way general prosperity is surely to be conceded. • I need 01 - point out the special advantages occurring to each class thereby, —forinstitnee in the ready sale of our pro ducts,—as grain, flour, lime, fruit, Sr,c.—in th3 - luote - favorable-pu rah ase-of-coal r l umber,- salt,.plaster, dry goods, hardware, &c., by the convenient transportation and reduction Ffreigh -t= - It - itiimpossibleito enumerate all the details or to imagine the general benefit resulting from this road. Can it be made is the next question? There is no doubt as to the ability of this region of country if every •man will do his duty. Ought not every owner of real prop erty, who knows that such property will cer tainly advance twenty five per eent, be will ing to pay one fourth of that increase to gain the other three fourths.• In all other busi ness matters, such would be a 'good invest ment, and this duty should be discharged . by every man, with referene to his own gain, without guessing how much mote it will help his neighbor. If property , holders be per suaded of their profit in this thing, is it morally right to expect a few to build the road for the gain of the many. Look over our township, calculate the value of our real props, ti (of the splendid farms especially,) and seliThow easy to make the road if every owner paid in subscription--one fourth of the increased value arising therefrom. 'Let it be plainly underst3od that selfishness and unmanly shirking will defeat the project.— The road will not be built as some think in spite of us—if we were mean enough to de ny giving a little to benefit ourselves a great deal. These are other localities besides our own looking out ,for their own interests in this very matter. Leethe moneyed, influ ential mon;—let everybody do their Whole duty and the time of making the road will be the obly question. If there are good rea sons why we should net have a railroad let us hear then]. Let the opponents of a rail road have a meeting and let the reasons be given, if sueh there be. Then if they are right we should have no road—if we are right we should have one. One or the other is right and If it turns out that toe are, let us all pull together; in one direction. The con ditions of subscription are fair, [giving good guarantees, the longest possible time of pay : meats by installtueuts and no risk in any e vent. No other road is now attainable for us and if we miss this chance, good-bye LOCOMOTIVE. Ding.— Outrage in Leesburg, Va. A gentleman from Leesburg informs us that last Monday week an emcute occured in that city, which, though trifling, is one of the signs of the times. Six or seven men of Mosby's old command entered Leesburg on horseback, and rode through the city, gesticulating, cursing and threatening in the true chivalric style. They came from the northern part of London county, and seem ed to think that the rebellion wad not end ed,for they galloped about the city in the most reckless manner, and when the civil author ities undertook to arrest them, resisted.. Captain Mattison', of the 193 d New York Regiments who is in eommand of that post; was thou called Upon to help. He immedi ately detailecUsome men, who, by a flank movement through some of the cross streets, succeeded in capturing four out of 'the six men. One of theui, named Davis, was sent to Winchester, where he had before been held to answer to the charge of shooting a negro. The remainder were, after the dis turance was quelled, turned over to the civil authorities, by whom they were im mediately released. While pursued by the Federal soldiers, and before they were cap• tured they fired upon their captors, bat for tunately tr o one was • hurt. Mosby is at present at Leesburg, and is toasted and fet ed as a hero, as much as during the . rebel. lion. To BE RELEASED —An order has been received by General Hooker; from the Sec retary of War, for the discharge Of all- en listed men in the volunteer service imprison ed for desertion.

Have you ev er read John Wiltion's "City of the Plague." Ifyoulave, the following_passage must have struck you as vividly depicting the dreadful -cenes-in-the-path-of-a-pestilence: • "-- = ---Stand aloof, . , And let the Pest's triumphal charriot Have open way advancing to the tomb, See how he mocks the.pomp and pageantry Of earthly kings! 'A miserable cart, Heap'd up with human bodies; dragged along, . By shrunk steeds, skeleton anatomies; And onward urged by a wan, meagre wretch. Doom'd never to return from the foul pit Whither, with oaths he drives his load of horror. Would you look in? Grey hairs and gollen tresses, Wan, shrivell'd cheeks that have not smiled Or • years; And many a rosy visage smiling still; Bodies in the noisome weeds-of-beggary wrapt, With age decrepid and wasted to the bone; And youthful frame's august and beautiful, In spite of mortal pangs—there lie they all Embraced in,ghast Laces!.

One of the greatest drawbacks to the pros perity of ,the great City it the present time, is the feet that it is almost impossible to se cure a habitable residence at anything. like a reasonable price. Matters have really, come to a serious pitch with many families, whose leases are expiring, and who cannot find a house to rent anywhere, for love or money. The consequence is that Philadelphia is be -ing-Gotham i zed—iato-a—board ing--house-co munity. It is . high time that capitalists should begin, as of old, to invest their mon ey buildings. T6o much of •it is employ ed a speculation, speculators having become as plenty as toads after a shower. SKATING. Already the note of preparation for the inauguration of the great winter sport of the Northern cities is heard, and we have no doubt that the furor for the invigorating sport of skating will be as great the coming -win ter-as-i t-was-last-year ment of attraction attached to skating is the _patronage bestowed-upon-it : by-the - fair - sex: The ladies_ have become so -accustomed to the eojornent of eur-well-ordered-ekating ponds, that they .look forw_ard to the ap• preach of winter with fond anticipations of a resumption of the gay and festive times they have evjoyed at carnivals and other ap propriate entertainments which mark the skating season each year. Where the•la dies go, the gentlemen will follow, and we may rest assured that the various public and private skating parks_ of this city will be thronged this coming season. • LADLE'S FASHIONS.' Your correspondent has not observed any considerable changes in the fashions within the last month, or two. The inevitable "wa terfall" is still worn, and there's no use say ing anything more against the abominable thing, for • "Whatever's by woman desired, She'll wear until she gets tired." Perhaps the latest fashion is the wearing of long ends of narrow ribbon around. the neck. It is said that when they wear the ends lunging in front, it means that the lady is married; over the right shoulder, that she is engaged; down the back, that she has a "feller" coining to see her, but she isn't en gaged; over the left shoulder, it means "fel lers, come follow me." If she does not wear any it means that ohs is engaged, and don't wish to have anything to do with "any oth er feller." So much towards enlightening the uninitiated. What will the .dear crea tures take to next? Time will tell. Thus eudeth tho trashy sayings of your friend RALPH. Oregon's Wonderful Sunken Lake Several of our citizens returned last week from a Visit to the Great Sunken Lake„"sit uated in the Cascade mountains, about sev enty five miles northeast from Jacksonville. This lake rivals the famous valley of Sinbad the sailor. it is thought to average two thousand feet down to the water all round.— The walls are almost perpendicular s running down into the water and leaving no beach The depth of the water is unknown, and its surface is smooth and unruffled, as it lies so far below the surface of the mountain that the air currents do not affect it. Its length is estimated at twelve miles, and ifs width at ten. Thep is an island in the centre, hay sag trees upon it. No living man- ever has, and probably never will, be able to reach the water's edge. It lies silent, still, and mys terious in the bosom of the "everlasting hills," like a huge well scooped out by the hands of giant genii of the mountains in the unknown ages gone by and around it the primeval forests watch and ward aro keep. ing. The 'Visiting party fired a rifle several times into the water at an angle of forty-five degrees, and were able to note several sec onds of time from the report of the gun un til the ball struct the water. Such seems impossible, bat it is vouched for by some of our most reliablecitizens. The lake is cer tainly a most remarkably curiosity.—Jack sort:rills Sentinel..
