p»a Sharp's MEDAL.—We were shown, a
days since, the medal got up for Paul (hereto
fore spelled Powell) Sharp, by the passengers in
ae min from Pittsburgh, on 'the night of the
ijfo November. In circumference it is aboutthe
~jmmon she of gold watches, and about the thick-
of a gold eagle. Around the outer edge on
acH side is a raised wreath. On one side is the
following inscription, -
Presented to
POWELL SHARP,
Engineer on the
Pennsylvania Rail Road,
Bt the Passengers on the train from Pittsburgh,
Nov. U, 1862,
la testimony of their admiration for his noble
and heroic conduct in saving their lives
at the risk of his own.
On the reverse is an engraving of a locomotive.

mJ will be highly prized by the recipient. The ,
aedai can be seen at the Motive Power Office of
the P. B. K
While heroes arc now daily rising from the
-jits of our armies, and are entitled to our respect
tad gratitude, yet .we venture to say that no
mater hero than Paul Sharp lives to-day, and his
..sine will be cherished with more warmth and
aatioued with more respect, in the homes of
those "hose lives lie saved, than will those of the
nglucit Generals of the' age. ‘ The children of
at of the Sunday Schools of Philadelphia were
,i highly pleased with his actions on that memora
night, that they at once contributed $25 to
.cake him a life member of their Missionary So
lely, i’ite certificate of membership was accora
jaiiled by a touching letter, expressing their ap
.rahation of his conduct.
Handsome Testimonial. —We were to-day

! the most improved mathematical instruments,
jnseuted to our late townsman, S. A.
Utxanilcr. more recently Foreman of the Kev

ftax a Patent Lock. —One day last week,

“ l* te ®t lock of his own invention, which we con

Valektixe’s Ha Awarding to. the Almanac
makers, Valentine’s mi the 14th of
kebrnaty, which wilftie two weeks from Saturday
next. From what we hare heretofore published
in, reference to the practice, once do largely in
dulged in, of sending vulgar carricatures to either
fodies or gentlemen, about this time, ohr readers
are aware that we most heartily condemn it. In
tact we believe any lady or gentleman who would
be guilty of so doing, compromises his ‘ or her
claim to that appellation. s Certainly there is
nothing . either smart or funny, in sending . a
friend or acquaintance one of the vulgar daubs got
tip by Fisher & Bro., merely to make money for
themselves, and fools of those who buy their publi
cations. A neat, handsome valentine thaf-mny
express friendship or love, and Will afford pleasure
or satisfaction to the recipient, yre approve. They
may be passed at any time, but for the sake of
common decency, do let these horrible carricatures
remain in the shops to be returned to the publish
ers. A few doses of this kind would stop their
issue.
: We may add to this, that Fettmger has just re
ceived a large invoice of handsome valentines,
large and small, high priced and cheap, with en
velopes to match. He thonght there might be
some people foolish enough to bny the ugly daubs
we have been speaking of„ and he brought a few,
buft we hope they ; may be all left on his bands.
Go and buy his pretty valentines, evety one of
them, but let him get bis fingers homed with the
vulgarones, and be will stop bringing them. We
may get a few of the detestable ones, (we generally
do,) for giving them such handsome pnffis, bat we
Have the consolation of knowing that the con
temptible scoundrels who forward them most pay
the pottage.
New Ticket t Office. —Having occasion to
call at the ticket Office, in this place, a few days
once, we found Mr. Dysnrt, the gentlemanly
agent, in a remarkably good humor, and on taking
a survey of his new apartments, we did not wonder
that he should feel good all over, as he now has
things fixed np in a very convenient and comfurt
able style. As we have heretofore noticed, the
Office has been enlarged, and very conveniently
arranged. ; On the ground floor are four rooms
Ladies' Saloon, Gents’ Saloon, Baggage Room and
Ticket Office. The ticket office is in the centre of
the building, enclosed in lattice work, with ap
pertnres into the saloons for ; Che sale of tickets.—
Entering the hall of the office, from Julia street,
you turn left into the Ladies'saloon,'and right
into the Gents’ saloon. The entrance to the bag
gage room is on Main street. This room, al
though rather small, is nevertheless comfortable
and is happily presided over by our young friend
Mnzaree. Baggage Agent at this station, who is
exceedingly accommodating, and a fit miin for the
position. Altoona has now a ticket office that
corresponds with the business of the station.
Remedy foe Dipxheria.—The following rem
edy for that dreadful scourge of the family circle,
JJiptheria, has been furnished to us, says The Har
risburg Teltjraph', by one who has frequently tried
its virtues aud never knew it to fail. We trvs:
that our cctemporaries will give this remedy a
wide circulation:
“Make two small bags that will reach from
ear to car, and fill them with ashes and salt; dip
them in hot water, and wring them out so they
will not drip, and apply them to the throat; cover
tip the whole with a flannel cloth, and change
them ns often as they heroine cool, until the throat
becomes irritated, never blistering. For children,
ft is necessary to put flannel cloths between the
ashes and the throat to prevent blistering. When
the ashes have keen on a sufiicient time, take a
wet flannel cloth and mb it with castile soap until
it is covered with a thick lather; dip it in hot
Water, and apply it to the- throat, and change as
they cool; at the same, time use a gargle made of
one teatpoonful of cayenne pepper, one of salt, one
of molasses, in a teacupful of hot water, and when
cool, add one-fourth as much - cider-vinegar, and
gargle every fifteen minutes until the patient re
quires sleep. A gargle made of castile soap is
good to be used part of the time.”
Man Killeo. —On Thursday jast, Robot Logan,
a breakman on the Emigranttrain between this
place and Harrisburg, was knocked down by a
bridge, at one of the road crossings below this
place, and so much injured that he died the same
evening No one can tell exactly where or how
the accident occurred, as it w(as riot knovfa that he
had been hurt until the train arrived in mis place,
when he was found lying,on the top of one of the
cars in an insensible condition. ; Ho was immedi
ately taken off and Dr. Gemmill was gammoned
tc examine his wounds. The Dr. found; an ugly
gash on the right side of the forehead and a severe
braise on the left temple, hot no fracture of the
skull. All bis efforts to restore the injured man
to consciousness were unavailing. He - never
moved or spoke after being taken from the cars.
His hat was found near the bridge below BelPs
Mills, and it is supposed it was at that point that
he received the injury. He was a married man
and resided in Harrisburg, where he leaves a wife
and several children to mourn his untimely death.

week. The construction train, Major Jacob Gir

Circular from the Cash -Store !—The sub
scriber would respectfully announce to the public
that he has just returned from the East with his
stock of FALL AND WINTER GOODS,
which he will sell, as usual, at a very small ad
vance on cost, FOR CASH ONLY. He is un
able to give a price list owing to the daily fluctua
tions in the market.
His stock is the heaviest and most complete ever
brought to the place, - and having been purchased
at the very lowest cash prices, will be sold at prices
winch make it to the interest of cash buyers to
call and examine his stock and be convinced that
he can and does sell a little cheaper than any
credit establishment.
He would call particular attention to his large
stock of DRY GOODS, embracing all the latest
and MOST DESIRABLE STYLES OF LA
DIES’ DRESS GOGDS to bo found in the East
ern market. A full assortment of fancy and plain
Flannels -and Shirting; large and excellent supply
of Linen and Muslins, dozens of patterns of Ladies’
and Gent's Gloves, all styles of Hosiery, with the
most complete selection of Shawls ever exhibited
in this market; any amount of Nubias, Opera
Hoods; Ladies’ Patent Vests, and a tremendous
pile of Anstinc, Kelly & Co.’s Patent Hoop Skirts,
ranging from four to fifty springs, which will be
sold at least 2ii per cent, under present market
price;
Our Mock ot* GROCERIES is complete and
selling a few cents below other establishments.-
Our Syrups range from 40 to 70 cents per gallon.
We would invite particular attention to our large
stock of Government coffee, bought before the late
heavy advance, which we sell at 20 cents per lb.
It is far superior to any of the substitutes lately in
vented. We have also a heavy stock of TEAS,
ranging-in price from 60 cents per pound upwards.
Onr stock of CHINA, GLASS and DELFH
W ARE is the largest, most varied and best ever
offered to the people of this section. It is really
beautiful. An examination of our “ Show Win
dow” must convince all who stop to view it that
we are not “ puffing', our ware. The China Ware
embraces Tea Sets tanging in price from $l2 to
$2O. Flower Vases, .Mugs and other ornaments.
| The Glass Ware embraces everything and every
I style of manufacture. Owing to the late advance
; we cannot now sell the celebrated Wcdgewood
i Iron Stone Tea Sets for less than $4.75 per set,
which is $1.25 below the scll mg price elsewhere.
I am now fully convinced that the CASH SYS
TEM is the best for both seller and buyer, ena
bling me to sell cheaper, without loss, and giving
my customers a belter article, and more of it, for
the same money, than they get at any other es
tablishment. But argument on this point is su
perfluous. The reason why I can sell cheaper
than credit establishments must be apparent to all
who give me a call.

On the 22d inst., by Rev. C. L. Ehrenfeld, Mr. BKNJ.
FIQAKT, of Altoona, to Miss CAROLINE C. JACOBS, of’
Spruce Creek, Ph.
DIED:
In Altoona, on the 17th ot January. 1863, of Consump
tion, alter an illneaa of eighteen months, Mrs. ANNA
\ EACH, wife of Mr. 0. D. Veacb, and daughter of John
aud Anna Mary Isenberg.
The deceased was bora Oct. 23, 1829, and at the time of
her death was 33 years, 2 months and 20 da s old.
She leaves u husband, an aged father, a sister and two
brothers, besides numerous friends and relatives to mourn
her untimely death. Mrs. Veach was a consistent and de
voted member of the German Reformed Church, and hail
ed with joy the prospect of the estoblMhment of the
church of her fathers at Altoona.although she felt "hat she
herself would never be able to attend aud take part in its
public services and worship.
Bho seamed anxious to depart and be with Christ, which
is far better, and assured her sorrowing friend* tliat she
was |«*rfectly at peace, aud willing to leave the sorrows
and troubles of earth, for the better laud beyond the
tomb.
Shortly before her departure, she took har husband's
hand aud said. ’‘Farewell dearhuduuid, 1 must have you
but hope to meet you in a better laud.” M thi* dying
hope be realized, a »d may h*r pious walk and Godly con
versation t>« imitated by all her sorrowing fiiends. so that
in the. consumation of ail things, they may meet her when*
death and parting never mars the blessedness of the saints
In light.
“Thou art gone to the grave but we will not deplore thee
Since God was thy ransom, thv guardian and guide;
Ue gave thee and took thee, and soon will restore thee
Where death has no sting, since the Saviour has died.”

CASE OF DANIEL A. BOYD.
Pittsburgh, December 31,1861.
Da. 0. n. Kktbks I take pleasure In making (Ids vol
antary statement in favor of a medicine prepared by yon
called w Lixdset’s Blood Seabcher.” I had snffeied foi
five years with Scrofula which broke out on my head and
forehead so as to disfigure me very much..and took off the
hair when the disease made it* appearance; it alto broke oul
on my arm above aud below the elbow, and eat into the
skin and flesh so as to expose a fearful sore. The disease
on my bead .went so far tb it several small pieces of bone
came* out. 1 was very week and low spirited, and had
given up all hope of ever getting well, aa I had tried sev
eral skillful physicians and they did me uo good. In Sep
tember last, 1861.1 was iudneed to tryLiXDSlf’a Ist
proved Blood Searcher.” I must confess I had no faith
in patent medicines, but after I had used three bottles ol
Blood Searcher, the ulcers on my head arid arm began to
heal. I have now taken eight or ten bottles, .and my head
and arm ore entirely well except the scars remaining from
the sores. I will also state that 1 had (he rheumatism
very bad in my arms and legs. The Blood Searcher als*
cured the rheumatism. lam now a well man, over forty
years of age, and I feel as suple and young as I did when
I was twenty, and have increased In weight twenty pound* .
I would also state tliat the disease in my forebear*) whs so
bad that when I etoojied and lifted anything heavy, ih<
blood run out of the aure. Dr. Keyser had a photograph
taken ot me by Mr. Cargo, the ortixt, after 1 began to get
well. It doe* not show my appearance as bad as It wh>
before I commenced taking the medicine. You can see
the photograph, one of which is now in my possession,
and also at Dr. Keyser'e 140 Wood street. I would also
Matt that 1 took the Blood Searcher which was ma<le be
fore Dr. Keyser commence*] making it. Although It
helped me some, I did not recover fast until I gut the kind
made by Dr. Keyser himself. One bottle of his dld im
more good than two of the old. I believe it is a great Uem
stronger nod better. 1 have recommended the Bluot.
Searcher to a great many of my friends for various dif
fuses, and 1 believe it has beljied the whole of tUero. You
may publish tills if you wish, aud 1 am anxious that nil
who are afflicted as I was may be cured. I live ic this city.
No. 4 Fine street, and am employed at Collvtllc k Audei
sou’s Union Marble Works, 54 Wayne street.
A BLIND MAN CURED.
I live in Sligo, nt Clinton Mill and have been nearly
blind in bo til eyes for nearly four years. I called on Ur.
Keyaer ah- ut three months ago and asked him to give ’me
directions to the Institution for tbe Btin4 in Philadelphia
lie told me that I need not go to Philadelphia to get well
aa be had medicine that would cure me, as he said toy di»
ease was in the blood. I was treated for it two or threi
times in the hospital in this city, and - was relieved, bui
my disease always returned alter a month or two after 1
came ont of the hoepital, 1 found my disease was re
turning and I called, by the advice of a good friend ot
mine, on Dr. Keyser, who has restored my sight, and my
eyes are nearly as well as ever. Tbs Doctor gave uu
‘ Lindsey Searcher" aud a waait.:

A BAD SORE LEG CUBED.
Piiztbceoh, September 18,1861;—I hereby certify that
I have hada sore leg for over a yean It was covered
with nlcers and sores so that 1 conld not work fur nearly
ayear. My leg swelled eo that I was. unable to do any
thing for a: long time, for at least six pint, the. 1 tried
several of the best doctors in the city, but without Any
benefit; finally 1 called on Dr. Keyser, at No. 140 Wood
street, who only attended me about two" weeks, and gavt
me bnt two bottles of medicine, and I am now entirely
well and have contined so for six months, lam employed
at thu Eagle Engine Uonte on Fourth afreet, where any
one can see me.
