Now that tbe exi gencies of the times demand a military cduca riuii fur our youth, it woull be a great daitkra hivi to have suck an institution located in our midst. Addresses upon the subject of the meat ',till be delivered. The public arc invited and urged to attend (iao.-W. Patton, das. S. Mann. , l/iiiis IV. Hall, i>. j.

That such an.institu i !i It demanded in this Section of the country, :/! will admit—that this is the proper time to senate the rptestion, and .Altoona, s the proper '■.cation for such' a school, appeals evident to a,. It is intended to establish a school in ninth the pupil will .obtain a thorough academi cal education in all the English branches, mathe matics and the languages, together with perfect ii:ilitary;disciplinc us now taught at West Point and other national military schools. Should -ach a school’be cstablislrvd here, our citizens would he enabled to educate tbeir children with out the expense of sending thorn abroad, and they would also obtain in it a military educa tion, the importance of which is now apparent, * bet which they would not receive in other acad emics. Altoona, in point of location, means of access, and hcalthfulncss of climate, seems to be the proper place for such a school, and we hope our citizens will evince their interest iu the matter by turning ont to the meeting on Saturday evening, when they will be more fully | instructed in reference to the institution On.. Anuessos at Aiioosa. — On iWctlnes day evening last, the gallant Col. (late Mnjorl ! Anderson, the hero of Fort Sumter,' passed | through this place on tbc Fast Line, on his way \ to Kentucky, his native State, to take charge of j the United States troops now being mustered in ! that ,State. Long previous to the hour for the 1 arrival of the train our citizens began to flock ‘ to the depot, and by tbc time the train arrived, i between, one thousand amltwo thousand persona I had collected. So denseyas the crowd that it : was deemed advisable to call out a guard to keep a passage-way open from the cars to the dining- i room in the Logan House. A detachment- from ■ Company B, Capt. Turner, marched do the dc- ; pot, succeeded ip opening a passago-wny, I but it was with difficulty they could keep it • open, so heavily did the spectators press upon ' them. Van Trios’ Cornet Baud, of Hollidays- . !>urg, and the Altoona Brass Baud were on the . ground, ami enlivened the occasion by discour- ' sing excellent music*. When the tiaiu arrived, ' the jam was tremendous—every person trying to look over the heai tof his neighbor to get a sight of the illustrious hero. N H,e succeeded iu getting into the diningroom without much diffi culty; While he flat at table those who*were fortunate enough to get a window had a fair, glimpse of him. He is a small man, not me dium height, hair lightly tinged with gray, and a pleasant, but determined, countenance. When he stepped from the cars, and again when he stepped upon them, the crowd "gave cheer after cheer, and a swivel -.in the vicinity of the way ■•cales made the hills and dales re-echo at each explosion. The Colonel stood upon the rear i platform of the car and bowed politely to tbc \ crowd as the train moved off. : I Bi r.Gcsi-’ Proclamation. —ln another column will be fouud the Proclamation recently issued by\he Chief Burgess of this place, from which it will be learned that the night patrol furnished by the “Home Guard” have been constituted a “special police," with full powers to make ar rests of all disorderly or suspicious characters. The law conferring this authority is very cxpli cit and rather severe,- and it would -be well for those who have set the authority of the Guard at defiance, and taken opportunities to interfere with and insult them, to read the law ere they “gam attempt anything of the kind. We are that there are any persons in our town who would he guilty of insulting and interfering with men who, without compensation, volunteer t« act as night watches, in order that our citi zens may sleep more securely. All good citi zens desire this guard and will respect it. The guard docs not interfere with the rights and lib erties of any citizen. All. that is required by a Rnsrd, when he hails a person, is for that per son to give his name, when, if he is known to be * c *tizcn of the town, he posses on unmolested. Certainly it is a Very small matter for a man to Eire his name, when ho is caught out after ten o clock- at night. If a citizen of the'town be observed lurking around in a suspicious manner, , no more right to go unchallenged than a granger, and the Guard will keep an eye on "* hope we shall hear Of no more tliffi growing out of this matter.

He also' receives, a large sufply of (Jaily papers, together with a number of the popular weeklies. - The boys have been making a nice thing of it, during the last-three days, catching stray hogs about town, and chucking them info the town pound. When once in’ the pound, it re quires the sum of 2i cents to be paid down in cash, ere their owners can get them out. This brings upon the head of Constable Ely any amount of curses,, but thoy, like entreaties, avail not, and the Owner must Shell out the tin ere Joe will open the pound. The consequence has been that our streets aye now rid of swine, as they should be. \ ’ Attention 1 Ladies I—lVc neglected, last week, to note that; Miss Jennie Scott, the fash ionable milliner up street, has associated with her Miss Sneath, who enjoys a wide repu tation as one of the best mnntaumnkcrs in the country; consequently the Misses S. are now prepared to trim out ; the ladies in the best and most fashionable stylo.

To this reduction we presume our peo ple will find no objection. It is the opinion of the Board, that with proper economy, the five mill tax will-yield a revenue sufficient to keep the schools open nine months in the ycafr. The schools will open and close at the sain£ time in the year, and one month’s vaoatiuli will bo given during holidays; gar* The laying of the .corner-stone for the esleution to the Catholic Church in this place, which took place oh Tuesday afternoon of last \ycek, was aii interesting occasion.
