TALES OF AN OLD SEXTON,
A MIDNIGHT APPARITION.


And teeming mischief thrives beneath thy shade
AARON HILL.
Mr. Colebrook was dead. He was rich
man, yet slight acquaintance with him
would have convinced even a superficial OBJ
server that he was not happy man. He
was misanthropic in his views, though ht
had the reputation in the streets of being a
very kind hearted and benevolent man.
Every day seemed to usher him into the arena
Of new strife with the powers Of misery.
apparently Ae was tired Of life, and impa-
tiently waited for the hour that had now
come, and which would put him beyond the
trials and woes of this sublunary existence.
And yet many could remember when he
was gay and cheerful person. Before his
marriage with II poor but beautiful girl some
seven years before bis death, be had won a
sunny smile, and his life seemed TO him a
pleasant dream.
Though only thirty-fve when he married,
people said there was too much difference be-
tween his own age and that Of his wife who
was, believe, about twenty-five She had
been poor, and forced to content herself with
but few of the Injuries and gayeties Of life
but now she was rich, and her indulgent hus-
band gave her free acces to bis Golfers.
Wealth fostered pride, and Mrs. Colebrook
became a leader Of fashionable gayeSt Of
the gay. Her beauty and influential position
in society made her queen and her smile was
courted by the brilliant and dissolute. The
house when she w'S at home, was always
illed with the gallants and lordly ladies.
All the world could see this and the next
thing IL saw, was, that Mr COlebrook grew
sad and melancholy; that bis wife was cold
to him and there was little, II any SYM
pathy between them. Then people said the
poor man had married badly, and the croak-
ers all'" knew that 1t would be So"

How Gov. Harris and General Price
were Caught in the Rain.-A n
Amusing Incident.
We find in one Of our exthan ges an
extract from a letter written in the
city of Mexico, and giving an amusing
description of the manner in which
Gen. Price, ex.Gov. Harris and sew
eral other Confederates wero caught
in rain storm. They were dining at
restaurant when the fain began
suddenly to fall. They made them
selves quite merry over the matter,
expecting the shower soon to pass
over; but hours passed and the rain
continued without intermission. Pre-
sently the sidewalk was uveraowed
and the water found it's way into the
restaurant, where IL continued to rise.
Chairs and tables werc appropriated
to new use. In one corner was seen
the stalwart form Of " Pap Price,"
mounted upon little roun d table,
while his vis-a.vis was Gov. Harris,
carefully balancing himself upon the
back ofa decidedly rickety char, and
the rest of the Confeds were disposed
of to the best advantage upon other
articles of furniture. Here they re-
mained cogitating upon the fallen for
tunes of the Confederacy, the power
of Uncle Sam, and the instability of
the Mexican climate until the storm
subsidized. How to get to their hotel
was the next question. There were
no canoes to be had, and carriages
would not venture out iu such times.
At length the General settled the
knotty point by taking off his boots
and divesting himself Of his neither
garments; his example was followed
by his comrades, and carefully rolling
lp their boots and clothing, the party
allied forth. "Old Pap" taking tho
cad. Such procession was never
before seen in the streets Of Mexico,
Ind the costume of the party would

My method of filing the felloes with

Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.

Man wants tonic-no uncommon want
And every year and month brings forth a
new one,
Which, after examining the gazettes with
cant.
The age discovers to be not the true one.
Of such as these let their concoctors vaunt,
I'll sing the bitters that have credit due
won
The worlds great Tonic. which no skill can
better
I mean the matchless BITTERS Of HOS
TETTER.
Doctors were living long before old Galen,
And since, exceeding learned, grave and
sere;
But the stomachics they were bound to fail
in;
Success came not until this later age,
Now is the era sick folks are made hale in.
And dread dyspepsia driven from the
stage,
Agues, remittents, headaches-real head
spliters-
Vanish like smoke before HOSTETTER'S
BITTERS.
Herbs, barks and roots compose the rare in
fusion;
Ne mineral poison mars their juices pure.
And Rye's mild essence holds them in So
luton.
The taste is pleasant, the effect is sure.
Ne'er have the bitters proved delusion;
Try them in time, and health and strength
secure.
The dragon-slayer figures on the label,
And they, like him, to save the weak are
able.

Gearv,s Speeches,

The Radicals are greatly distressed at
the humiliating spectacle presented by
General Geary as an orator. They feel
that every time he makes a speech, he
makes Democratic votes. In order
to break the force of theblow which
his recent effort in Baumgardners
woods, near York, is giving the dis
union cause, the Press, on Friday last,
offered this apology and excuse for it. In
publishing his Doylestown speech, it said:
General Geary's speech, taken down al
most literally as it fell from his lips. shows
that some of his other addresses have either
been badly reported or Daisrepresented.
This is simply absurd. Geary's ad-
dress in Baumgardner's woods as well as
his oratorical performances at Reading,
were copied literally from Radical jour
mails. The report of the first appeared in
the daily Press, and some days afterwards
was published in the weekly issue of that
newspaper Ample time was given the
statesman of New Cumberland to revise
it, and omit the Objectionable and ludi-
crous passages. But this was not done,
and the Press report stands as official and
uncontradicted. In that speech he de-
nounced all the soldiers and sailors who
composed tie great Harrisburg Con-
ventiOn as g shysters, towards, skulkers,
and hospital -bummers Does the Press
now deny that shameful utterance He
also announced, with magnificent en-
phasis, that ''he was soldier-that he
had set squadrons in the feld-that lie
had never met defeat" Did the Press
misrepresent him in that bravado, also =?

Thad-poles /!

The Ihad poles are trying to WOO the
soldiers to an endorsement of their trea-
son by pointing triumphantly to the act
passed by the last Congress to give sol
dnrs an additional bounty. Has any
soldier got that bounty? We guess not.
In the same bill which gave the sol
liers bounty was provision given to each
member Of Congress $500, extra pay.
Have the Congressman got their $28-
%? Yes, every one of them except the
conservative members who drew and re-
turned it TO the treasury. Why are they
able to get their money and the soldiers
unable to get any? Because they took
care to provide n fund tc pay Themselves
and were equally careful to provide moth
ing to pay the soldiers. Ask Senator
krkwood about this, while he is stump
Ing. Ask him if he, who went to the
Senate late in January, drew his pay for
whole session including the $2800! Ask
lin if he is so much better than the sol
diers that he must be provided for, and
they left out in the cold?
