ww e notice that the City authorities are
making some much needed repairs ou the old
City Hull. It is a pity the building could not
be removed, so that we could have one good
public square in the city.
ET~Ry the advertisement in our columns
tills morning, it will be noticed that the Alle
glianians will give one of their unique con
certs at Lancaster Hull oil Friday eveuing

with popular favor.
Robbing an Orchard.—Yesterday balf a
dozen boys from this city, of the ages ol from
ten to twelve vears. went into the nrcliarH nf
John Heed, Esq., in Westbrook, and began to
plunder the trees. The boys were provided
with bags to hold their spoils. Information of
the transaction was sent to the police of this
city, and three of the young scamps were ar
rested, and the others soon will be.
cy We understand that Col. X. J. Jack
son, of the 5th Maine regiment, has received
an appointment as Brigadier General. This
promotion i9 well deserved. Col. Jackson
went out with the 1st Maine regiment, and on
his return was appointed to the 5th. He was
wounded in the arm at the battle of Malvern
Hill. After a very brief furlough he rejoined
his regiment, and was with it in the recent
battles near Ceutervilic.
Steamer Daniel Webster back again.
We congratulate the merchants and travelling
public on the return of this favorite steamer.
The Webster has been gone some over six
months, and returns in very excellent condi
tion. She stopped in Xew Vork ten days, aud
received a thorough overhauling, such as fix
ing up, cleansing and painting state rooms and
berths, in fact giving her a complete renovat
ing. The Webster will leave on her first trip
this evening.

cases of hospital stores will be forwarded to

quite eighteen years of age, who had run away
and intended to enlist as soldiers. The city
marshal received a dispatch from the father of
one of them, Mr. McXeal, requesting him to
•top his sou, which Mr. Huse did. The other
young fellow, named Burnham, said he would
not enlist unless McXeal did, and therefore he
will return with him to Eastport to-night.—
Burnham has been a drummer, we believe, in
tbe 6th regiment.

$250 each. The quota for the nine months’

and to them a bounty of $200 was paid.
Twenty-live of these went into old regiments,
and the balance are now at Camp Abraham
Lincoln near this city. The money to pay
the bounties was all raised in the town,
without resort to banks, individual citizens fur

taking town scrip in exchange. When it is re
membered that about sixty men from this town

LocibvilLe, Oct. 5.
The Louisville special despatch of the 2d,
Concerning the taking of 500 rebels by Kosc
cranz's division, was incorrect. It doubtless
was based on the fact that an entire regiment
of cavalry, 300 strong, was captured in the
early part of last week by Lieut. Seward, of
the 2d Indiana, commanding bis own and the.
2d and 3d Kentucky, which surrounded and
completely surprised the rebels at breakfast,
surrendering without the slightest resistence.
Col. Crawford, commanding the captured reg
iment, is ex-Congressman, and one of the Con
federate Peace Commissioners to Washington.

A rumor lias been prevalent here that Gen.

citizens of this good city of Frederick, anx
ious to hear something from me. I cau only
say us I did live minutes ago, it is not proper

service they have rendered, for the energy
they have show n, the hardships they have en
dured, and the blood they have shed for this
dear Union of ours. 1 also return thanks not
only to the soldiers but to the good citizens of
Maryland,and to all the good men and women
in this land, for their devotion to our glorious
cause. I say this without any malice in my
heart to those who may have done otherwise.
May our children and our children’s children toa
thousand generations continue to enjoy the
benefits conferred upon us by a united coun
try, and have cause yet to rejoice under those
glorious institutions bequeathed us by Wash
