Tbz.Cocrt House.— Blair County has now a
ftJt Room of which her citizens may well feel:
T 5 vl It is frescoed in elegant style, and is the
,ua! to any similar room in the State, not except-;
? the cities. We will not attempt a full descrip
of the ornamental work, other than to say:
s! the figure of justice in the rear of the Judges'
• si is admirable executed, as is also the coat oiT
of the State, ovpr the entrance. The col-'
jus around the room arc faultless in color and
lowing. The hall, on the ground floor, and.
different offices, have also been repaired and;
*l*rad, and wear an air of comfort and neat ness. ;

Home after Business : Horns-t-The road
along which the man of business; travels in pursuit
1 of competence or wealth is not; a ‘macadamized
; one, nor does it ordinarily lead tbrongh pleasant j
j scenes andjjy the well-sprihgs of;delight. On the-)
, contrary, it is a rough and nigged path, beset witli j
j “wait a bit” thorns, and pitfalls, which can only j
be evaded by the watchful care of circumspection.. ]
After every day’s journey over this worse than j
rough turnpike rood, the wayfarer needs some-!
thing more than rest; he requires solace; and he
deserves it. Heis weaty of the dull prose of life
and athirst for the poetry. Happy is the business
man who can find that solace and that poetry/
at home. Warm greetings from loving hearts,
fond glances from bright eyes* the welcome shouts
from children, the many thousand little arrange
ment* for our comfort and enjoyment that silently tell
of thoughtful and expectant love, the gentle minis
trations that disencumber ns into id> old and easy
seat before we arc aware of it—these, and like to
kens of affection and sympathy, constitute the poe
try which reconciles us to the prose of life. Think
of this, ye wives and danghtess of business men; ■
think of the toils, the anxieties, the mortifications
and ware that fathers undergo to secure for you
comfortable homes, and compensate them fur their
trials by making them happy by their own firesides.
Jut Cbamer.— While in Hollidaysburg, a few
days since, we called upon the “model conductor”
at his new place of business, and found him deal
ing out bnttcr, beans, potatoes, fish, fruit, etc., to
bis customers,. He takes to . the business just as
naturally as though be bad been at it alt his life,
and is just as kind and accommodating as he
used to be when on the Branch Train. By the
way, Jim has been sworn into the- County Treas
urer’s Office, and now fingers the “dear people's”
money, and we don’t know any one whom we
would rather have finger our share; of taxes. He
will make as popular a Treasurer. “ Bully for
Jim.” '

At last we have snow and sleighing in abun
dance. The fall on Tuesday night and
Wednesday last, was the heaviest we have hod in
thes region in the five years pest, being fully eigh
teen inches on the level. Those who can indulge
in the luxury of 2,40 nags, fhney sleighs; plenty of
of buffalo robes, lots of bells, and a belle, are happy
men. There is no fun in sleighing the girls un
less it is cold enough to require a gentleman's coat
sleeve, with an arm in it, to keep them warm.

Protracted Mretings.—Nightly meetings
are still kept up in the Methodist and United
Brethren churches, and by the Winehrenarians in
Logan Hall. If sinners are not converted from
the error of their ways, if is not the fault of the
churches or a want of opportunity or instruction.
A lio. I. —ln the list of corporations and com
panies in the State, with their standing, finan
cially, ithe Altoona Gas and Water Company is
put down as first class. . The old fogy doctrine
that a gas and water company would not pay in
Altoona, has been exploded completely.
Reb Prisoners.—One hundred and fifty rebel
prisoners, belonging to Morgan's cavalry, cap
tured in Tennessee. passcd through this place on
the Mail Train, op Friday last. They were a de
cidedly hard looking parly.
£9* The Standard learns that Maj. George Ray
mond, formerly of the Whig, has resigned his
position as Commercial Agent of the Government,
at Balize, Honduras, and has returned to Wash
ington.
Dedication.—-The new German Lutheran
Church, in this {dace, will be dedicated on Sunday,
March 15th. The ministers to be in attendance
will be announced hereafter.
XJ-We learn from the Register that O. E. Criss
man, of Sinking Valley, has been appointed
Steward of the House of Employment, in room
of X. McGraw, resigned. ;
Messrs Editors In passing through Har
risburg, we called at the“ United States Hotel.’’
This convenient and popular house .has just been
entirely renovated, refurnished ajtd beautified.
The reading. room has been refitted* and furnished
in elegant city style. The parlors and chambers
have bgen refurnished, and throughout the entire
establishment important changes have been made,
and the proprietor, seems determined not only to
make the “ United States Hotel” to rank among
the leading popular Hotels of the conntiy, bat also
to render it the home of the traveling public.
We cheerfully recommend this Hotel to the
travelling public, because it not only offers every
accommodation and is equal to any other similar
establishment, but because it has it decided ad
vantage of all others in location, situated only a
few steps from the two great depots; and perfectly
easy of access. C.
A Word to Mabbied J?eople.—-

Circular from thk Cash Store I — The sub
scriber would respectfully announce to the public
that he has jus; returned from the East with his
stock of FALL AND WINTER GOODS,
which he will soil, as usual, at a vert 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. i
His stock is the heaviest and most complete ever
brought to the place, ami having • been purchased
at the very lowest'cash prices, will be sold at prices
which 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 anv
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. GOODS to be 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 Austine. Kelly & Co.’s Patent Hoop Skirts,
ranging from four to fifty springs, which will he
sell at least 25 per cent, under present market
price.
Our stock of GROCERIES is complete and
selling a few cents. l>elow other establishments.—
Oiir Synips range from 40 to 70 cents per gallon.
We would invite particular attention to our large
stock of Government coflai, bought before the late
heavy advance, which we | sell at 20 cents per lb.
It is far sti|ierior to any of the substitutes lately in
vented. \Vc have aUo a .heavy stock of TEAS,
ranging in price from GO cents per pound upwards.
Our stock of CHINA, GLASS and DELPH
WARE is the largest, most varied attd best ever
offered to the people of this section. It is rt-allv
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 Tee Sets tanging in price tioiti $l2 to
$2O. Flower Vases, Mugs and other ornaments;
The Glass Ware embraces everything and evorv
style of manufacture. Owing to the late advance
we cannot now sell the celebrated Wcdgcwood
Iron Stone Tea Sets for less than $4.75 per set,
which is $1.25 below the sell ng price elsewhere.
I am now fully convinced that the CASH SYS
TEM is the best for lioth seller and buyer, ena
bling me to sell cheaper, without loss, and giving
my customers a better article, and fnorc of it, for
the same money, than they get at auv other es
tablishment. lint argument on this point is su
perfluous. The reason why I' am sell cheaper
than credit establishments must be apparent to all
who give me a call.
A full stock of .boots and shoes.

A Word of Solemn Conscientious Advice to those
who will reflect.
A class of maladies prevail to,a fearful extent in the
community, dooming at least 10U.00U youth of both sexes
annually to an early grave. Tho?e diseases are very im
perlVctiy understood. Their external maul e»t«tloD, or
symptons are Nervous Debility, Relaxation and Exhaus
tion: Marasmus or wasting and consumption of the tissues
of the whole body; shortness cf breathing or hurried
breathing on ascending a hill or flight of stairs; great pal
pitation of thu Heart; Asthma, Bronchitis aud sore
Throat; shaking of the Hands and limbs ; aversion to so
ciety and to business or study: dimness of eye sight, loss
of Memory, dizziness of the Head; Neuralgia, Pain iu va
i ious parts of the body; Pains in the back or limbs. Lum
bago, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, irregularity of the bowels,
deranged secretions Of the Kidney* aud other glands of
the body, as Leucon bcea or Fleur Albas, Ac. Likewise
Epilepsy, Hysteria and Nervous Spasm*.
Now in ninety-nine coses out of every one hundred, all
of t!ie above imm- d disorders, and a boat of others uot
named, as Consumption of the Lungs aud that most in
sidious and wily form of cunsamptiuu of the Spinal
Nerves, known as Tabes Dorsales, messut riCa.
have their seat and origintu diseases of the Pelvic Viscera.
Hence the want of success on the pai t of old school prac
tice iu treating symptoms only.
Dr. Andrew Stone, »*hysiciau ta the Troy Lung and lly
gieiiic institution, is now engaged In treating- this class
of modern -maladies with the most astonishing success.
The treatment adopted by the Institution Is new; it is
h:i>*ed upon scientific principles, with new discov red rem
edies; without minerals or poisons. The facilities of cure
are such that imtients can be cured at their homes. In any

CASE OF DANIEL A. BOYD.
Pittsburgh, December 31.1861.
Os. G. FI. Ketsx*:—-I uk© pleasure in making this vol
untary statement in favor of a medicine prepared by yot
called Lixdikt’s Blood Scabchxb.” I had suffeted.fb
five years with Scrofula which broke out on my bead an
forehead so as to disfigure me very much, and off th
hair when the disease made it« appearance; it also broke on
on my arm above and below the elbow, and eat lute ih
akin and flesh so as to expose a fearful sor*. The disea*
on my head west so far th*t several small pieces of bon
came out. 1 was very we*k and low spirited, and ha
given up all hope of ever getting well, as I had tried se\
erai skillful physicians andthey did me no good. In Be| .
tember la*t, 1861.1 was iuduced to try ~ Lindsey’s |y
raovKD Blood Seaechxju” I must confess I had no faiti
in patent medicines, but after I bad used three bottles <•
Blood Searcher, the ulcers on my head end arm began t*
heal. 1 have now taken eight or ten bottles, and my bea
and arm are entirely well except the scars remaining froj
the sores. I will also state that 1 had the rheumatism
very bad in my arms and legs. The Blood Searcher als
cured the rheumatism. lam now a well man, over fort.'
years of age, and 1 feel as suple and young as I did whet
I was twenty, and have increased in weight twenty pound*
I would also state that the disease in my foreheanl was a*
bad that when I stooped and lifted anything heavy, th
blood run out of the sore. Dr. Keyset had a photograpl
uk--u oi me by Mr. Cargo, the artist, after 1 began to ge
well. It does not show my appearance as bad as it wa
before I commenced taking the medicine. You can se
the photograph, one of which is now In my possession
and also at Dr. Keyser’s 140 Wood street. I would in
state that 1 took the Blood Searcher which was made be
fore Dr. Keyser commenced making it. Although i
helped me some, ) did not recover fast until I got the kirn
made by Dr. Keyser himself. One bottle of his did m.
more gtx>d than .two of the old. I believe it is a great de«
stronger and better. I have recommended the Bluo<«
Searcher to a great many of my friends for various dl*
eases, and 1 believe it has helped the whole of them. Yoi
may publish this if you wish, and 1 am anxious that al
who are afflicted as 1 was may becured. I live icthiscit\
No. 4 Pine street, and am employed at Collville k Audei
sou’s Union Marble Works, 64 Wayne street.
A BLIND MAN CURED.

He told me that 1 n-.ed hot go to Philadelphia to get wel.
as he had medicine that would cure me, as be sail) uiy di**
ease was in the blood. I was treated for it two or ihre
times in the hospital in this city, and was relieved, bu
my disease always returned alter a mouth or two after )
came out of the hospital. 1 found my disease was r*
turning and 1 called, by the advice of a good friend i
mine, on Dr. Keyser, who has restored my sight, and nr
eyes are nearly as well as ever. The Doctor gave m<
