FIREMAN'S PAIZADF::—OR Monday last, notwithstanding the inclement weather, the parade, consequent upon the recep tion of the Union Hook and Ladder, came off. The truck and fixtures, manu factured by Messrs. Thompson, R us h ig & Grove, are really a credit to the work manship of those men and the mechan ism of our town. It was the intention of the principle getters up of this demon. atration, to postpone it on account of the weather, but the arrival of our neigh bors from Columbia settled to the con trary, and the parade cent on regardless 'of the pouring rain, which was; all things considered, quite a creditable display,—. In the evening a ball was given to the Columbia visitors, which, we are told, passed off finally. Mr. Folks, who has been the chief in this Hook and Ladder movement, has furnished us with the result of the operations of the ball, by 'which it will be seen that $27,08 has thus been placed in the hands of the.

JAmr.s WlLsort, Treasurer. wir A strolling fellow, with mnsket-in invnil, was arrested on the river shore, on Wednesday afternoon and taken before Esquire A user, where he. told several stories—that he was from Baltimore— being a Union man—had to escape from the city—that he went torChambetsburg and enlisted, but afterward was discharg ed—but finally acknowledged That, while en-guard at Cutup Scott, York, being nearly starved, fled. Edward P. McEl roy having been the first to suspect and -arrest 'him, had gratis, quarters provided for him fur the night, in the basement r the Town Hall and on Thursdayxrior rang took him back to' York and deliv ered bim over to the Camp officers. Fla is from Pittsburg. Mac says he was im mediately ironed and put in the guard house on bread and water. ear It will be gratifying to the numer ous friends of Major F. Hambright, to learn that be has been unanimously e lected captain of the Allegheny Rifles. Speaking of the gallant captain the Pittsburg Gazette says: Thoroughly imbued with the military spirit, a strict disciplinarian and correct tactiuien,Major Hambright re-enters the service of his country at his advanced age with all the spirit and animation, and with much more experience, than most of the officers who remain with us. With the advantage of such a thorough drill, , we shall be surprised if the Rifles do not render a good account of them selves. Cr It is said that Mr. Buchanan has contributed $5,000 to sustain the coun try. He had better have contributed a few dallars' worth of patriotism and energy when he was F'resident.—Louis ville Journal. We learned on Monday last, from a gentleman from Lancaster, that Mr. Buchanan's contribution was . ffty dol lars,—just two 00's less than the above. Alariettian. Cr A new chime of eight bells has been placed in the belfry of Trinity,Lu theran Church, Duke street, Lancaster which rung its first merry peal on Sun day moring last on the occasion of the Centennial anniversary of Old Trinity. The chime is said to be much sweeter in its tone than the old bells, gar The Pittsburg Dispatch says a new counterfeit of the Farmers' Bank of Lancaster made its appearance in that city on M onday. It is decribed as fol lows: The bill has no centre vignette— oval male portrait; 10 above on right end —two Indians, one kneeling, 10 above on left end—female bathing betwen signa tures—name of bank in semi• circle at the top of note."

They ask, at present, only one third of each amount subscribed. Some have paid in full—others have paid one half—others one-third or more ; but the greater part have not yet paid any ; prob ably because they have not been called on. But as the duties of the Visitors have been pretty arduous without ma king collections, the Committee hope that most (if not all) of the subscribers will lessen these labors by calling on the Visitors and making payment, without waiting to be called upon. lIIIME The Committee wonld also very re spectfully state that all subscriptions made thus far must be paid in .cash, as fairness to all requires ; and especially as the Committee cannot give their at tention to auditing bills and dispensing . orders. The families to be relieved should, also, be treated alike as far as possible, as well as subscribers ; and cash payments., will best enable us thus to treat all parties. This, however, is not to exclude any donations in produce which may be offer ed hereafter—all such will be received at the stores already named, and will be faithfully dispensed as directed by the doners. But cash subscriptions will al ways be preferred- by the Committee. By order of theßelief Committee. A. B: Seey. Marietta, May 24, 1861.

In addition to the above, permantly organised "Home Guards" have been formed in various sections of the county, who, should occasion require, whould have no hesitation in entering the regu lar service for the defence of their coun try and rights. In concluding this brief mention of military matters at home, we cannot refrain from expressing our ad miration of spirit that now actuates the loyal, men of .Lancaster county. Party ties are ignored, and with here and there a miserable exception. all men of all par ties and creeds, are united in their deter mination to uphold and defend the con stitution and the laws.—Express. $46.75 *I'M 1.20 '27 OS frirThe M an heiM Sentinat of last week, says that operations on the Reading and Columbia Railroad have commenced.— The sub-contractors on the section from that place southward commenced work with a goodly force about a week since, on the hillock along the Chitlins, about three-quarters of a nide southwest of town. Once this is graded, and the several bridges built in that neighbor hood, the work all along from Chestnut Hill to Litiz is light, and will require but a short time to get ready for the rails. We expect to hear the " iron horse" snorting in that neighborhood befor the close of the year. LW Dr. J. (4.

By per verting the noblest gifts of God to the vilest purposes it degrades the majesty of manhood to the level of the brute; it traces its source to the depraved affection of a prurient imagination its appetite is whetted by the contaginated con fluents of indiscriminate companionship at schools and seminaties;it bears within its womb the tortures of its own chastisement, and the germ of speedy destruction in the fearful retri bution of loss of memory,bankrupt constitution swift decay, imbecility and insanity.

WILKIE COLLINS' NEW BOOK The Crossed Path; A Story of Modern Life and Manners. Br Wilkie Collins, author of " Woman in White," The Dead Secret," etc., and far superior to either of them. One vol., 12m0., cloth, $1.25; or in ttvo vols., paper cover, for one Allier. Read what the Editor of the New York Daily News says of it : " T. B. Peterson Sr. Brothers have given to the public, in an acceptable form, one of the most remarkable works of fiction that .'has ever been issued from the press. The Cross ed Path, a Story of Modern bile and Manners,' exhibits in' a pre , eminent degree, the power possessed by Mr. Wilkie Collins, of sustairfing the interest of a story which in other hands would probably prove tedious. The two - con trolling agencies of the plot are loVe and re venge, which are Made in turn to work upon each other. The hero has the misfortune to have a father who is very tenacious of ances tral honors, and who is desirous that he shotild ally himself by marriage to a. family equally as ancient as his own. As is often the case in such instances, the young man hills in love with a woman who is inferior in social posi tion, • a tradesman's daughter, and to escape the consequences of his father's wrath, marries her secreus . Here the revengeful iedividuaL appears upon the scene, in the shape of the linen-draper's confidential clerk, who has been deprived by the hero, of the woman he was desirous of marrying. In addition to this ground for hatred, his father was hung for for gery through the evidence of thehero's father. "To avert all suspicion, the hero agrees not to claim his wife, or demand any of the rivil eges of a husband her the space of a year.— This interval is improved by Mannion, who gains the affections of his wife find consum mates his disgrace on the night. before the ex piration of the year. To this the hero is a witness, and proceeds to wreck his vengeance upon the head of Mannion, leaving, him ap parently lifeless in the street. He, however, Survives, and after having unconsciously caus ed the death of the unfortunate woman, still pursues the hero with his hate". Having alienated him from his father, he persecutes him in various ways, until be ar last falls a victim to his own impetuosity and is dashed to pieces over a precipice. The persecuted victim is then restored to his family a wiser, though perhaps, not happier man. The story is told very skillfully, and the more objection able features of the plot are handled with grear . delicacy. We would advise, all our readers to get the book and read it, Mr it is the most remarkahle work of the day." The Dead Z•ecret.
