Will not the citizens of this place join together awl get up , demonstration of some kind for the day or even ing? We propose that a meeting be held at Logan Hall to-morrow (Friday) evening, to make ar rangements for a grand torch-light procession on Saturday evening. There are' many reasons why 'we favor a torch-tight procession, over any other r demonstration, one of which is that it is prettier than any Other, to our eye, and costa less. Every body can go into it. There are many who cannot go intoi an illumination, and those who do are necessarily debarred from the pleasures of the oc casion, as they must stay at home to watch their lights. Then let us arrange for agrand torch-light procession, accompanied by the Altoona Brass Band and ail the martial bands in the town, and let those who can secure them have fire works to set off as the procession moves. Let the patriotism of Altoona be exhibited, not in a reckless expend iture of money, hat in a manner in which all can participate. Bchool Statistic*. —We extract the following statistics, with reference to the schools of this county, from the report of the State Supeintcn dent:— Whole number of schools, 131 Number yet required, 4 Average number of months taught, 6 No, of male teachers, 113 “ “ female “ 20 Average salary of males per month, $2B 92 “ “ “ females “ “ 24 30 Number of male scholars, 4,0T>7 “ “female “ 3,380 “ learning German, 12 Average No. Scholars attending school, 4,098 Cost teaching each scholar per month, 53 Tax levied for school purposes, $25,783 05 “ “ " building “ 2,759 88 28,533 93 2,524 40 23,082 24 22,234 89 2,618 94 3,451 42 Total tax levied, State appropriation, Received from collectors......

Fatal Accident. —On Monday morning last, a freight engine, Joseph Kearney engineer, while descending die mountain, near Alagripa station, struck an unknown man, knocking him off the track and killing him instantly. There were two men in company, but one of them stepped to the aide of the track ami escaped unhurt. The Holli daysburg Branch coal train was passing up the mountain at the time and it is supposed that the unfortunate man, while endeavoring to got out of the way of it, did not observe the engine descend ing the track on which he was standing, and the engineer thinking that the men both observed his engine, did not try to stop, and did not know that he had struck the man nntil after he had passed. Be then ran back to the spot, had the man pnt on the engine and brought him to this place where an Inquest was held. Rejoicing. —We notice in our exchanges that there has been general rejoicing throughout the. country over the Roanoke, Fort Henry and Fort Donelson, victories. On Saturday and Monday evenings last, the proprietors of the little piece of artillery in this place, had it out in the *• streets and fired a number of rounds in honor of tire victories of the arms of the Union. The news is certainly enough to rejoice the heart of any patriot. On Tuesday afternoon the excitement ran quite high. Those who had flags unfurled them to the breeze, and by Arrangement all the bells tvere rung at the same time, while little “Union” did Ija best to add to the general rejoicing. The juveniles, dianiased for a tinie from the schools, paraded the streets, shouting at the top of their voices. Wants to Deop it —The editor of the dagtbarg Whig evidently wants to drop the Altoona P- 0. clerkship question, but Uke a littc boy. bscked oot in a fight, he wants to appear brave by having the “last word" if iyshould only be in ma hing facea. If any one can make head or tail out of his Ugt article on the subject, they con do more •ban we can. We understand that he intends to call one of ns sleepy, but we submit whether it is in place to pot to call kettle black. We believe *e can see as far as he can on a hot day. Withdraws. —Jos. P, Trout has withdrawn 1 from the field as a candidate to Justice of the Peace, leaving the contest between .Wm. H. Per efrat, independent, and Jonathan Conrad, nomi •tAtad *t the citizens* meeting. ®-“Variety Is the spice tod we have had variation to sufficient extent in theweather. — The weather all winter has been changeable Mid -uncertain—as uncertain almost w the verdict of a Jury. One day we have the balmy atmosphere of spring with the golden sunshine overhead, enticing many from the parlor to the broad open air, the next, old winter, with snow on his locks, driving them to their warm and comfortable firesides, while withont the widp and rugged wind knocks in vain. Qu Tuesday and Wednesday some 'BOO or 1000 troops passed west to man the boats of the flotilla now fitting ont at Cairo, to proceed down the Mississippi. They were detached from the variou-s Tcgiments now on the Potomac, and were selected on account of their knowledge of the busi ness for which they are intended, being princi pally sailors, coastmen and boatmen.; The; were a hardy, dare-devil looking body of men and will undoubtedly do their doty if they get an opportu nity. , Foe Cosstabix.—By reference to the candi dates’ cards in another column, it will be seen that OQ r. young friend, Pinckney J. Claris is a candi date for High Constable. Pinck is one of the light-weights, and would evidently make good time on a foot-race. Between the two candidates the race in this respect would be about “neck and neck," but how it will be otherwise, we can’t say. Both have their friends and there Will, no donbt be a pretty good vote polled. C&*Tbc lectures of Dr Bettleheim, on Sunday last, were well attended and well received. He is an able and interesting lecturer, although a little difficult to understand in his pronunciation. <3-The Lutheran congregation of Hoißdays burg, have chosen Rev. M.

Lan der has been received at headquarters; PaW Paw, Februaty 14, 8 o’clock, P. s. ■ To Majok-General G. B. M’Clellan : The railroad was opened to Hancock this morn ing; also, the telegraph., Wo had an important forced reconnoissance last night, which was completed to-day. We broke up the rebel nest at Bloomeiy Gap. We run down and captured seventeen commissioned officers, among them Colonels, Lieut. Colonels, captains, &c. We engaged them with 400 caval ry. Our infantry were not near enough to sup port the cavalry, and the enemy were retiring.— We have in aTI 75 prisoners and kilied 13 of the enemy. We lost two men and six horses at their 'first lire. , I led the charge in person. It was a complete surprise. Col. Camfil commanding the Fifth or. Eighth Ohio regiment, made a very daring and successful reconnoissance immediately afterwards to Unger's store. Maj. Frothinghain. is entitled to great credit for building under my- direction, in four hours, in the dead of night, a bridge across the Great Cacasson, at an unfrequented mountain road. Two columns, of two thousand men each, have marched thirty-two miles, and one column forty-three miles, since four o’clock; yesterday af ternoon, besides bridging rivers. The papers that were taken from our prisoners, and my own re connoisanees to the South prove that the country is clear, and Jackson and Luring are in Win chester. We occupied the Bloomery Gap and Point Mills on the belief, by information from deserters, that Gen. Cassons brigade was there. Gen. Dunning bus just arrived at New Creek and Moorfield, forty miles south of Romney. He has captured 225 beef cattle, and ; broke up the guerilla haunt there.. Two of his men were badly wounded, and we killed several of the rebels. — The enemy has been driven out of this depart ment. (Signed,) F. W. LANDER, ling. Gen. A Rebel Officer’s Account. Capt. Taylor, chief of the rebel artillery at Fort ; Henrv, is a vomig Tennesseean, formerly of the of the U. S. Navy. He says that the first intiraa- . tion they had of any design to attack Fort Henry 1 was given by the appearance of : our gunboats, os they came to sight on Tuesday, and threw in a few experimental shots.' After that, learning that our troops had landed four miles below, he was in hourly expectation of bombardment, and kept his men on duty all that night. When the attack be gan, ho directed his guns principally at the flag ship, as he con’.d easily distinguish Commodore Foote’s ensign flying from her. This accounts for the great number of shots which struck the Cincin nati. After firing the sixth round Capt. Taylor’s rifled 24-poundcr exploded, stunning and disabling every man near her. Shortly after, one of our shots struck the parapet and exploded near his 10- inch columbiad, the only large gun he had, filling her with mud, and rendering it impossible to work her. Next a shot cut through the wheel of a 32- j pounder, and silenced her, as she could: not after ward be brought forward in position.. Then a j shell burst in the erabraznre of another 32 pounder I shattering and tearing off her muzzle, and killing 1 and wounding all the men who were serving her. j Captain Taylor was standing beside her, and a fragment of a shell struck him in the back, bjjfc' without serious injury. “ One of my he, “was at my side when the sflislL-exjSloded.— That was the last I saw of him; put as soon as I could look again, the jiarapat and embrasure were stained with blood, and strewed with fragments of his body.” Thus, early in the fight, four of his eleven guns which bore upon bur boats were disa bled. Capt. Taylor wished to report to General Tilghman, and they sat down for a moment’s con versation on the banquette, when a shell struck the parapet, and exploded, burying; them under two ' feet of earth and hurdles. Several of the other gnus became dismantled, and it was evident that the fort could not hold out much longer. The men, weak from recent attacks of the measles which had gone through the garrison, and. wo'm . by their vigils of the previous night, wore greatly exhausted, and to prolong the defence further would only sacrifice more of them. By order of Gen. Tilgham a white flag was raised, but it did not seem to attract the notice of these onboard the gunboats, and their firing continued vigorously.-- The great flag of the fort was then hauled down, and the attack was ended. The Famine in Iceland.—The returns of sev enty-five. Protestant clergymen in reply to acifcn lar from Bishop Plunkett, of Tuatn, show that in their opinion the potato crop is less than half of what it was last year. But the oat crop is up to the average. Of fuel, a large proportion would be useless. There was an increase in the number in the poorhouscs. Lord Plunkett; concludes that, while there cart be no doubt that distress will pre vail, no actual famine-need be apprehended. Mr. James D. Mcldon, of the county of Galway, has purchased one hundred tons of Indian meal to distribution among the poor on his estates at Bel mont, Coolame and Tnrlohmore.' Dead Bodies Pound.—No less than nineteen dead bodies have been exhumed in Port Henry, which had been hurriedly buried in ond heap after the fight, and before we reached the fort. The ap parent slight Ices of the rebels has been a matter of great surprise, but this recent discovery puts rather a new light on the matter, and'it would not be surprising if still more were found. It will be re membered that only four dead men were found in the fort when we took possession. This will mil* at tost twenty-three who fell beneath the unerring shots of our sailors- ; AF*w Worn* toCxshßcm*.—The “?•»- ic Store” being the only one in this section Of the State that sells exclusively for cash, arid at cash prices, the proprietor wishes to impress a few facts and figures upon the minds of cash buyers; Ist, That he lias but one price on his goods, and that price only five pot cent, advance on cost. 2d, That by doing a strictly cash business he can and does sell cheaper than any house which does a credit, because, Ist, parties buying at a credit store, even though they pay cash for their purchases, pay credit: prices, for the reason that the proprietors of credit stores are afraid to sell to cash customers at lower figures than they do to their credit customers, lest their credit customers should find it out and withdraw their patronage; and, because 2d, by selling for cash only he gets no bad accounts on his books and loses no money, consequently ho is not compelled to tax paying customers to make up his losses on non-paying ones. 3d.
