John Biu.on Secession. —A Now York jour nal publishes a report from Tennessee to the effeotithat John Bell has prepared an elaborate address to tbe American people pn the crisis, taking strong grounds against the right of se cession and the expediency of it, and demon strating tbe ruin, to the border States which must follow from the Gulf States going out. Mr Bell, it is understood, advises conciliatory meas ures, and shows how strong tbe united South will be against any Republican foray and bow Lincoln will be, compelled to be conservative. Congress met on Monday last. There was a ijuorom in both {louses. The President's Message was read on Tuesday. It is not so lengthy as we anticipated. We have not yet bad time to read it, consequently cannot speak of its merits. LOCAL ITEMS. Sl&ioos AcCIDMT.— On Friday afteTnoon last an accident occurred in the yard in this place, by which Mr. John Cramer, of Tyrone, who runs a market ear on the road, was severely, if not fatally injured. It is customary to run the Local Freight Train to the head of the yard, when coming in from the East, and drop the cars down the different tracks on which they are. wan ted. On Friday afternoon Mr. C’a car jras the lost on the train, and after being ran to the bead of the yard, it and several box cars were dropped down a track on which a number of coal tracks were standing By some means the oars which were -being dropped down became unmanageable and ran down the yard at con siderable speed, driving Mr, C’s car with great force against the trucks Mr. C. was"standing 'on the .front end pf his car, consequently did not see his danger. After-the concussion and, as he thinks, when the cars were springing back, bis. head was caught between the top of his car and the one following it and received a squeeze sufficiently hard to fracture bis skull for several : inches, extending from his forehead, and over his to the base of the skull. Otherwise he was not inured in the least He was taken to the office pf Dre. Good & Oemroill, where his wound was dressed, after which he was removed to Bowman’s Exchange, where he now lies.— Everything that medical skill can suggest febe ing applied W bis relief and he now Appears to rpst easy, although he is n it out ,of danger. A Tuesday evening Inst, at the invitation of Ur. IK B. Miller, of the Logan House, we jumped on n sled and rode up to the of Mr. Runyan, to ace a pig obui. the Utter bad just slaughtered for .the former. It waa a eight worth aeeing—a beauty in fact a It weighed, when dressed, . the nine little pile of 620 pound* It was not as long as the' common breed of lings in this port of the country, but, as aduitehinan would aay, It was ‘‘ wide out ” It measured, as near ly, m ere could ascertain, a footand a half sereas the shoulders and nearly tiro feet across the kMnejs. The fat on its back bone measured sevep ?p"bp« and the flitches between six and' eight inches in thickness. The pig was of the gqfltolk breed—full blooded-f-and vras ftyout 8 yearsold. It was -brought here and? wised by Mr. Miller who has the reputation pride* himself in, getting a good breed of whatever Vifod of he raises, and the yield of pork above noticed, proves that 'all w-hb .jwvse hogs wpaldbjjthe gainers if they fpUowedhts ex ample.

Under the impression that he was too much injured to travel, and as night had set in, Qrif went to Mifflin, intending to return and have the fun out the next day. Accordingly, on Friday morning, ho, in com pany with another man, ;both armed, and a dog, went in searob of the bear, bnl when they come to the spot Irhere be was fast seen, it was found be bad awam the river, crippled as be was, and made foA the mountain. They followed bis track and finally overtook him, when he immediately showed fight against-the dog, wbonl he pinioned back of the neck and would not release his hold nntil despatched by a rifle ball- He was taken to Mifflin, and after being dressed weighed 284 pounds. One of bis .daws shown us, would leave a track in the snow about seven inches long by 4} inches brood. Impobtavt Suits. —At the adjourned Court held in Hollidaysbnrg last week, tbe case of Charles Hughes against the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company was tried. -The plaintiff's claim amounted to. $lO,OOO, and was for 100 tona of railroad iron taken from the 'Portage Road, and damages. Tbe dft claimed to own it under a purchase made from the State, or the Agent of tbe State, before the ante of the Public Works, while the Company lay cla.m to it under their purchase of the Main Line in 1857. We hap pened to be in Court while it was being tried and bad the pleasure of hearing the argument of Col. Hall, of this place, on the part of the defence. It was one of his best efforts—a clear and logical argument. The jury rendered a verdict for the dft. for $575. the value, we un derstand, of ten tons of iron. It is said tbe Company will take tho case to the Supreme Court. A suit, in which considerable interest wai manifested, and which involved a principle of great importance to all citizens, and especially to collectors of taxes, was tried on Friday last It was an actipn of trespass brought by James Hutchison against Abraham Miirkey, collector of taxes for Logan township, for 1859. It seems that iMarkey levied on the plff’s horse, in Oc tober last, and sold it for taxes, the plff having refused to pay. The plff alleged that the deft, did not demand the taxes from him thirty days before be seized the horse, and bis counsel in sisted that he must show that he did. On tbe other band, deft’s counsel took tbe position that Markey was a public officer and that the law pro? suraed that be discharged his duty —that it was for the other side to show be di 1 not make the demand, even though it did involve a negative. Tbe Court agreed with the deft, and so instruc tpd (he jury, who, notwithstanding the charge (and much contrary to general expectation) found a verdict for the plff, for a part of bis claim. We learn a motion has been mads for ; a new trial. Advent of Winter r—The genial Summer is past, glorious Autumn has departed, and the aged and stern old Winter King has made his advent, with icy breath and lowering brow.— With all his rudeness and coldness and wailings, who don't like-jfrim, frosty wold Winter—jolly, roystering old Winter—happy, healthy, blus tering old Winter—the time for fun and frolic, song and sentiment, social dancing parties, jolly home circles, sparkling fires, long evenings and favorite authors? Now does the keen wind buoy up the drooping spirits and impart a frui tion that no Summer day’s languor can impart —now does tbs glowing skater skim gracefully over the smooth blue ice—and Soon will tinkle the merry sleigh bells over hill and dale.

And though iby hair be frosty and whitp, Old Winter, and thy face pinched and blue, t&y lieart is right .and trad and sincere, and thy hands are open, as thou treadat this good old earth.

The writer of this, with a number of gentlemen, were invited to a sup per on Thanksgiving evening, with “mine host” of the above named hotel, and I but speak the unanimous sentiment of the party in saying that a tnciie luxuriant table we never set down to.— It was coveted with everything inviting to the palate, and the variety so great os to allow each taste to be satisfied.

Conductor Killed. - -Mr Herman Updegraff, a citizen of Johnstown, and for several years past Conductor on tue Pennsylvania Railroad, was killed on Wednesday afternoon, near La trobe, by falling from his train, which passed over and mangled him in a most horrible man ner. We did not learn the cause of the acci dent. Mr. Updegraff was a married man, and the father of several small children, all depen dent on him for. support His remains were taken to Johnstown, on the Acoommo lation, for interment. Thanksgiving wa» generally observed by the business portion of the community in this place. Work was suspended in the Fail Road Shops and all the stores were closed. A sermon suitable to the occasion was delivered in the Presbyterian Church, at half past 10 o'clock in the morning, by Rev. A. B Clark. In the afternoon the scholars connected with the pub lie schools, convened in the Methodist Church, where they were addressed by Revs, bhrenfrld, Creighton, Clark and others.
