The Recent Excitement at Charlestown.

HARPER'S FERRY, Nov. lS.--Evening.-
The excitement here last night was caused
by the burning of wheat stack about three
miles from CIarlestown The military and
populace were called to arms, and the widest
terror prevailed among the people, the sup
position being that Col. Davis had sent IN
formation of approaching danger. The pan
ic Of the people extended 10 Col Davis, and
messenger was sent by him TO the Ferry
with IL dispatch for the Governor, calling for
two companies of cavalry. This morning
the fire was found to have been the work OF
an unknown incendiary, but no one person
could be found in the county on whom suS-
picion could rest
There are now one thousand men under
arms, and no enemy to be found further to
encounter. The troops from Alexandria
arrived at CharlestOwn this afternoon, and
those sent by the way of Winchester are cx-
pected tomorrow morning.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Cumpa-
ny have sent Col. \. =. Shut, with an
armed posse. to Ilarpcrs Ferry, toGuard the
bridge and the property of the company at
that point
There is much dissatisfaction expressed
both here and at Charlestown, at the precl-
plate action of Col. Davis in sending dis
patches for troops, instead of first sending
out posse 10 inquire into the cause OF the
fire. They think they have been made to
appear in ridiculous light before the coun-
try, and they are more than half right OF
that point
WASHINGTON, Nov. lS.-Thc government
to-day ordered two thousand pounds OF pow
der to be sent 10 llarper'S Ferry, with Il
large number of Minnie rifle balls, AID
seven hundred shells from the Washington
arsenal
HARrER'S FERRY, Nov. Is, 10 p. M.-pS,
patches Just received from Charlestown say
that there is no cause for alarm, and there
has been no evidence Of any kind otan attempt
10 rescue the prisoners. Some four or five
suspicious characters were traced and driven
of. The whole alarm is perfectly ridiculous
and without foundation.

The Approaching Wing Convention.

The proceedings of Opposition meetings in
the various counties, held for the purpose of
appointing delegates to the approaching
18th of December Convention, have been
pouring upon rs. with gratifying rapidity.
during the past few days. We take it for
granted that all the counties will act in this
matter in the course Of the present month.
The day for the Convention is only three and
a half weeks distant, and, in not single coun-
ty, should our friends omit to discharge the
duty incumbent upon them. From present
indications, we entertain no doubt whatever,
in regard TO the large size and imposing
character VI the Convention. We think it is
now evident that an overwhelming majority Of
the counties will be fully and ably represent
ed, and we trust that the deliberations Of the
body may be characterised by moderation,
wisdom, r-sightedness, and elevated and
disinterestcd patriotism.-Rch ljhy.

Statistics Of Headache.

The Medical Times and Gazette contains
some interesting medical data, obtained by
Inquiries m ade in the usual course of pro,
fesscsional experience, con corning the cause
of headache. Of ninety cases cited, seventy
six were females-a number which establish
es pretty strongly the fact testified to by most
of the old writers, that females are more
frequent sufferers. OF the seventy six fe-
males forty were single. The predisposition
in the case Of females is believed to originate
in the nervous system->usceptihility OF ner-
vous disorder being much oltencr found in
the female than i'll the male subject 1t is
likely to exist in organisms which evidence
a capability of SO much iineneSs and delica-
CIV of perception, united with SO much prone
ness to emotional excitement and in which
the functions of organic life are observed to
be 50 readily wrought by passing states of
thought, sensation and emotion.
OF the exciting causes, emotional disturb
ance has the highest number. Out of nine
ty cases, tifty-three declared this to be the
cause of their attacks, forty-eight also con-
sidered that atmospheric states were to be
blamed and twenty-five specified thunder
In regard to inheritance of the liability, in
nineteen cases the mother is mentioned. in
nine the father, and in twelve both parents:
in all, forty gave explicit evidence OF heredi-
tary predisposition, and few others men
toned cases in collateral branches. Out of
the ninety cases only nineteen blamed their
diet. As to the influence of climate, TWEEN.
ty nine seem very clear that they are at
least liable to attacks of headache in places
where the air is dry and bracing six COM
mend cold atmosphere, and six condemn il:
eight praise warm atmosphere and three dis
like it; six are in favor of sea air and four
are averse to it. Fatigue is mentioned Gs
an exciting cause by thirty-two.

A Tragedy in the Wilderness.

Under the above head, the Detroit Free
Press narrates Il curious affair tlrlt lately oc
CURED at trapper's camp on Lake Huron.
While on u hunting excursion, young man
named Bard, shot, by accident, his compan-
ion. named Montour. The Free Press says:
Finding that death was approaching. h.
carried him to the canoe again, aud padded
M the bayou TO the camp. where he took
HIM ashore, and with intense anxiety await
ed the result. The old man was strong and
robust. and rendered up life by slow degrees
only. although rackcd with torture ut every
breath Unable to render any assistance,
his companion determined 10 20 down t. tie
lake shore in the hope that some passing
vessel might proyidentially be near. The
diving man at first besought him not 10 leave
him. but finally consented TO his departure.
He accordingly got into the canoe, 9nd pad
died down the lake, but found no consolation
there. With sad forebodings he returned to
the camp, and was greeted only by the CLASSY
ewes Of a dead man. His companion had
rendered up his existence, and he spent the
night alone with tie corpse IN the midst
of an mpenetrable and bowling wilderness.
The tcrrurs Of such situation can only

horrors. What questions would be asked by
the family Of his dead companion? What
proofs had he 70 sGhstantiate his statements:
There was nothing but gloom and forcbod-
ing-nut even the little consolation oi silent
and cloudless night, for the elements warred
furiouslv without the trail tent, and the
wolves, seeming the dead from afar Oft, came
bowling up to the very door, and were only

mite relief, prepared - 20 for assistance and

all day ON the lake shore, and camped at
night, and on the next day succeeded ~

down. Having got aboard, he told his story,
and obtained the assistance Of the mate and
two men, who returned with him to the camp.
and helped to bury his dead companion.
Stones were piled over the grave, 10 prevent
the wolves from digging him up, and after
collecting all the camp eqnipage, ne lett the

CIpER-MAKISG WITHOUT PRESsiNG.-1t is
stated that man at Parkersburg Va, is
successful in making cider by the following
process: lie grinds the apples, and fills casks
with one end open, the bottom having some
sticks and straw. like leech-tub for ashes
On the pomice he pours rs much water as it
would yield juice by pressure, and that dis
places the juice and sends it to the bottom,
from which. after two days, it is drawn by
opening the faucet, and as the cider is hea-
yier than water, it runs off at first pure.
The pomace, too, having IN affinity for wa
ter. absorbs that, which displaces the natu-
raj juice, and leaves the pomace quite taste
less. This process may be useful TO persons
who have few apples and no cider press.
