A horse attached to a wagon solemnly trotted up Market street yesterday afternoon and halted in front of Russ' restaurant.

There was no driver in the wagon, and it was first thought that an accident had happened, but this suspicion was al layed by the appearance of the driver, who had allowed the horse to stand without being hitched, and ho ran off. Some day we will be called upon to chronicle an accident from this carelessness. Prof. Himes, of Dickinson College, delivered an illustrated lecture in the regulur course of the Y. M.

A jealous Husband Slashes His Wife Across the race With a Razor. Wm. Jones, a colored man, a laborer, who resides with his wife, Lizzie, iu Sible's row, in North Harrisburg, is a bad man and carries a razor. He became jealous of his wife, without cause, and frequently quarreled with her and threatened her life. Last evening while Mrs.

Jones, in company with another colored woman named Fanny Jackson, was on her way home, Jones came up to them on Eleventh street and began to abuse his wife shamefully, using vile language and striking her with his first. Near ing home Jones drew a razor from his pocket and made a desperate lunge at the throat of his wife, evidently with the intention of killing her, as he had threatened to do. The murderous blow was aimed too high and took effect on the left side of the unfortunate woman's face, at the cheek bone under the left eye and passing down to and below the nose, severing the lip, shaped its course again upward, ending near the cheek bone on the right side of the face, cutting through to the bone in several places, laying open the lip, producing a frightful wound six and a half inches in length. After the infuriated wretch had inflicted the fearful injury he fled like a coward and could not be found anywhere last evening. The suffering woman was placed in a carriage as soon as possible and conveyed to the offico of Dr.

C. A. Rahter where the wound was examined, washed' stitched in seven or eight places and carel fully bandaged, after which Mrs. Jones was taken back to her home of course suf fering severely. Had the desperate scoundrel aimed an inch or so lower, wo would, most likely, have been compelled to record a foul murder instead of a serious cutting affray.

He had not slept a wink for twenty four hours, coughing all the time. His sister bought a 25 cent bottle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup at the nearest drug store, gave him A dose, and the cough was broken at once and he slept quietly during the night. 'J) I 'Y A.RBISBTJRO, January 23, 1878. Mr.

Editor: As you kindly offered me an opportunity to correct the unfair statement made in your paper of the 20th of December last, in reference to myself, and as I preferred to test whether a constable can arrest a citizen when he is making no breach of the peace, and as the case has been decided against me, I desire to say that in my'opinion it is not safe for any citizen to indulge even in lager beer, as he may be at any time set upon by an officer and imprisoned. Failing in the prosecution to convict the party in the courts, I see no other alternative than to join the Murphy band and hereafter, by word and deed, do all in my power to preserve the peace, since the courts by their decision throw all the burdens on the people.

Resident Clerk of the House John A. Smull, has our thanks for a copy of Smull's Legislative Hand Book for 1878." Besides the matter usually contained in this interesting and usefnl publication, Mr. Smull has prepared a brief and accurate biography of each Senator and Representative, which is valuable for reference as a matter of political history. The contents, as a whole, have been thoroughly revised, and important additions made thereto. The book also contains the new list of county officers more complete and fuller election returns than given heretofore; a diagram of the entire floor of the Capitol, and separate diagrams of the Senate and House; a complete list of postoffices in the State, and a beautiful and accurate map of Pennsylvania.

The volume this yar possesses far more interest than any of its predecessors, for the reason that impi ovement has been made where it was thought perfection was attained. Mr. Smull is to be congratulated on his annual success. Court Proceedins Tuesday Afternoon. The following true bills were returned by the Grand Jury: Wm.

The Harrisburg: Junior Military Organization That Created a Furore in Philadelphia The itesult jof Skillful Training and Discipline Reminiscent by One of the Members.

The article in the Telegraph regarding the history of the common schools of Harrisburg has called forth interesting reminiscences from old citizens, one of whom gave a Telegraph reporter, this morning, an account of the trip of Capt. Jacob M. Eyster's military company of boys toJPhil adelphia. The company numbered about fifty members, and were thoroughly drilled and discipilined by Captain Eyster at the Lancasterian school house on Walnut street. The yard attached was the drill ground, and there in tlm boys drilled in the morning from 6 to 8 O'clock ani in 4 1, ft j.

Lr 4i mfoimant, who was one of the scholars, took part in the memorable trip to Philadelphia in May, 1846 and says that such a furore was neer created in the Quaker City as the visit of the boy military company made. So perfect was' their drill that it has never been sui passed by the military organizations of modern times, and army officers looked on and; wondered at the perfection and nia chiue like movements of this company of Harrisburg youths, pupils in the common schools; The company wore a groy uniform and carried knapsacks bearing the monagnan Junior Guards. The arms used were small "rifles furnished by the State. The boys drilled at the Arch, Walnut and Chestnut street theatres, and at the former were presented with a silk flag by Burton, the comedian, and the ladies of the theatre. They also drilled at the Philadelphia navy yard in the presence of the United States officers and marines; at Independence Hall in the presence of 20,000 people who crowded the house tops and trees in order to see them; at Fairmount Park in presence of even a greater number of people, and at Southwark Hall.

The Philadelphia papers were loud in their praises of the perfection of drill attained by the little fellows, and the people of Philadelphia lavished kindness on them, On their return home offers were made them from theatrical managers in New York, Baltimore, Boston and other cities to drill on the stage, but theso were declined. In conclusion we would state that every member of the company was in the Union army during the late rebellion, ft'l of them holdi ig commissions. These cjmmissions ranked from second lieutenant to major general. Many of them are dead now, but their comrades still preserve a green spot in their memories for the boys of Capt. Eyster's Junior Guards.

The Philharmonic Club To Night. The celebrated Boston Philharmonic Club, a musical organization having few equals and no superiors, appears at the Opera House to night. An exchange says of this club: This famous instrumental organization, which Includes six of the most accomplished musicians ever hard in America, is now making a Western tour. It was a happy thought in bringing together these talented artists. Mr.

Beruhard Listcmann's superior, as a violinist, has nevar been heard in America. Mr. Adolt Hartdegen, the violoncellist, studied under Servais, and is one of the mostfinished players in the world. Mr. Fritz Listemann, violinist, and Mr.

Eugene Weiner, flutist, were formerly soloists in the Thomas orchestra. Mr. Alexander Freygang, the harpist, is a European celebrity. For a series of years he was attached to the Imperial Court of St. Petersburg.

Mr. Adolf Belz, the French horn soloist, is another celebrated artist. He was formerly a member of the Koyal Orchestra of the King of Wnrtem burg. Miss Zilla Louise M'Questen, the vocalist of the party, is a great vorite, and sings with much beauty and sweetness of expression. Miss Davenport's Versatility.

However the cities may differ as to Miss Davenport's success in some special parts, there seems to be a most unanimous ad mission that for versatility she has no equal on the American stage. There appears to be no character in the English drama, iu which a lady can be cast, which is beyond her range. The characters of Lady Gay Spanker and Nancy Sykes are as wide apart in their construction and correct delineation as the poles; yet she is probably unequalled in both. Once only she appeared in Bulwer's creation of the "Lady of Lyon's," when her portriature of this character at once ranked her among the few great Pauline's of the American stage. No one artist has done more than Miss Davenport to bring the comedy stage of New York to that point of excellence to which it has attained.

Her crowning triumphs are Mabel, in Mr. Daly's great play of "Pique," and Rosalind in Shakespeare's most delicious comedy of "As You Like It." Miss Davenport appears in "As You Like It" on Friday evening at the Opera House, supported by Augustin Daly's New York company. Diagram at Dr. Markley's.

Stkvbns: Dear Sir: A few days after the Fourth of July last I got my leg hurt by a fellow workman letting a plank fall, which struck mo on the knee. For four months following I was under the treatment of the physicians at the Dispensary, at the end of which time they told me they could do nothing more for me, and that I must go to the hospital and have my leg amputated above the knee. I was removed to the haspital. and lay there ten weeks under the treatment of the best skill the hospital afforded, and no pen can desoribe the great suffering I endured. My leg was swollen to nearly the size of my body, and all the surface of my knee turned black, and I was told that my knee was so diseased as to render it impossible to save my leg, and unless it was amputated soon I would die.

Whnn I first went to the hospital, I raised such an objection to the amputation of my leg, they consented to try one alternative, which was to cut out all the diseased flesh and replace it with sound flesh from the other leg. They did cut six pieces from my well leg, and place it where the diseased flesh had been removed; but the bone was so much diseased that this experiment proved a failure, and I was removed to my home in a hopeless condition. Other physicians were then em ployed, until all the money which I had saved from my earnings had been expended, and one thing afteranother disposedof to pay doctors' bills until my family was in a destitute condition, with no hope for myself except relief by death. At this time Mr. Hill, the police officer in my street, called into see me, and, after rendering pecuniary assistance to my family, brought some Vegetine for me, urging me to give it a faithful trial, saying when those two bottles were gone he would see that I had some more.

After I had been taking the Vegetine three days the ulcers in my knee commenced to discharge, and I cannot begin to describe the frightful quantity that was discharged during the following eight days: and though previously I had suffered indescribable pain, rendering sleep impossible, after taking the Vsgetinb three days the pain all left me, and my whole complaint seemed to be pouring out of me with this corrupted matter. The Vegetine was not only forcing disease from me, but it gave mestrength from day to day. When I commenced on the fourth bottle of Vegetine the swelling had all left my leg, and the soro which covered the whole surface of my knee commenced to heal next to the bone. I am now on the sixth bottle, the sore is entirely heal and my health so impr ved as to enablo me to walk over town. The Vegetine has saved my life.

It has cured my leg, and restored me to health; my knee bears the marks of my great suffering, and it will always afford me pleasure to show the proof of what this good medicine has done for me. I am, dear sir, very gratefully, JOHN WELCH, 03 Knoeland Street. The Policeman's Statement. The above statement is true. I procurod the Vegetine for him, and carefully observed his condition from the time he commenced to use it until he was cured.

WILLIAM B. HILL, Police Officer, Station 4, Boston, Mass. VEGETINE SAFE AND SURE. Mr. B.

H. Stevens In 1872 your Vegetine was recommended to me, and, yielding to the persuasions of a friend, I consented to try. it. At the time I was suffering from general debility and nervous prostration, superinduced by overwork and irregular habits. Its wonderful strengthening and curative properties seemed to affect my debilitated system from the first dose, and under its persistent use I rapidly recovered, gaining more than usual health and good feeling.

Since then I have not hesitated to give Vegetine my most unqualified indorsement as medicine I use, and as long as I live I never expect to find a better. Yours truly. i W.H.CLAIIK, 120 Montorey street, Alleghony, Fenn. VEGETINE. Prepared by H.
