TUESDAY, JULY 7, 1863. fttgiwplM Campaign. griMwit of the hut few •PMb hMeanwd te ihoir not oaly to. the rest ot lankind, bt wren to omnrivaa. the latent energy la the breasts of the Aatericaa (Maple, which «rtK Mil sure* nur spy Miking csrestfi-pnt it imP Mtwtud fmnit it vtaOde to the world. Aieee*aaqde we need only to pint to the late (Ml ini aprwiag of the people of oar own town anil On Tanadar, the kfith of Jane, it wu announced that the labeit, haring made a raid into Pennsyl vania, eoatwaplated injuring the Pennsylvania Boil Band, and thaf in ail probability Altoona weald he one.pint of attack. J 0 noon the qnes tiiM.wan asked, what shall be done fln the even iog it wna aoewemd by the departure of 250 men beat on meetinc the enemy and driving him back. If indeed he was approaching—and on the morrow thaw worn followed hy fully as many, more, giving na a hattallion of over five hundred men, unde' caeaneand of Lieut. Col. Stink, of the late 125th Regiment. Tbe advance of these .were on the IMi to McGee’s Gap, where breast work' were already begun by workmen who had been sent in advance. On the 17th these men labored all day oo these troths, and at night started for a farther march, and were joined not only by the re mainder of their own hattallion, bat by an equal number from HolUdayabnrg, Tyrone jind othei parts, of the county, (another portion of the Holli dayabmg men having been sent to Pattonaville.) making one thousand strong, which nttfe joined.on the 18th by six hundred men from Johnstown, un der Col. McCartney. With these after throwing up some earthwork, at Ake’s Mills, in Bedford county—the march wa, resumed on the evening of the 19th for Bedford and Bloody Bon. The former place was rescued the same night, and on the morrow this hastily gotten up force joined Gen.Milroy at Bloody Run Hen, after a speech from Gen. Milfby, the Aitoon, BatptllTon left the array of Cambria and Blai and took op their line of march for McConnell burg in Pulton county, which place they reachet at now on tbe 22d, and immediately proceeded t< take pnmession of the mountain passes East oi that place, through which the Chambersbmg and Meicmahnrg pikes pass. Here, the - men having traveled so for and u yet having seen no rebs, began to feel ffiat all was a hoax, and ’ being un organised began to drop off for home, 1 singly and in squads, until not oyer one hundred and twenty of that “ proud army” remained. Here this hand fill lay holding these two 'points, three miles apart, null the evening of the 24th, when a rebel forct numbering not less than three thousand, consisting of cavaliy,lnfantty and artillery, advanced upon them. Being oatnorabereffand “our flanked,’ discretion was eonridAb tbe better part of valor,” and the militia retired, not in panic, but in good order, bringing off their wagons and substance, which was very nearly being captured by being in advance and taking the wrong road, having to return through tbe lower part of the town while tbe rebs were in the upper part. Thus the fore, whichHarted out, five hundred strong, returned by way of Mount Union, after ten days active ser vice-able to bear but one hundred muskets. Horvibla atoriaa have been told about the attacks made by this artgy upon hen-roosts and spring hnnatWi bat as a general thing they aw amine. It is a fact, that part of oar way seemed to lie hi an enemy’s land, and the boy* did capture some contraband chickens which they say with rebal ingiatitiide attempted to bite them. Perhaps aomefow Union men suffered, bat tot judge they mmsjffop. They'd forgive the militia. it would be but an act of justice to uy here tint an independent company, led by Captain Wallace of Huntingdon, and some 10 or 12 of the twelfth qtralry, led by Capt. Hartman of thisplace, did some efficient skirmishing a mile of two, above MeCoanebbotg where twoofthe twelfth and a vol tmtoer from Lewistown were wounded. AU honor to these men, and we ars glad to hear that all tmw affwfrh their lives. 00 Oiy Service. iMWffiattly on th» return of the militia, Got.

Tan Nonox.—We take the following extract from a letter from-our Washington corespondent. Let those who have friends in the Potomac afmr read it, and be careful of all sharks. j6f course our correspondent is booked up in the matter; In your last week’s paper I notice the adver tisement of a certain indieidnai in this' city .who proposes to give to friend* at homeinformafion by letter, of their friends or relatives in the Army of the Potomac or in anyof the army Hospitals, by enclosing! him one dollar. Let me kindly caution your readers against all each gyli-tra/u. I made special inquiry in reference to this matter at the office of the Sanitary Commission here, land they.kindly informed me that they knew nothing of this party, and that this is intended to be a swindling operation, to d-ceive the ignorant, and if he answers letters at all he wonld be likely to go to the Books of the Sanitary Commission for information. If yon want information in re gard to any sick or wounded soldier in any Hos pital in this Department yon will get it gratui tously (without even enclosing a stamp): by addressing “ office Sanitaty Commission, ’’ Wash ington, D. C. The Draft.— From numerous correspondents of tbe press in Washington, we leSm (hat it has been determined that, whjle all persons coming within the provisions of the act of enrollment for calling out tbe national forces are to be enrolled, nevertheless, under the first enrollment,!those Who were in the militaiy service at tbe time the aci went into effect, namely, the 3d of March last, are not to be included in that class which is subject to the first draft. Those of, the second class are not to be included ih that class which is snhjcct to the first draft. Those of the second class-are not to be called out until those of the first class shall have been exliaustcd. This .second class will in clude the returned nine months volunteers, who were in service on the third of March last, and, consequently, will not be called on until thfrjfirst class shall have been reduced to that minimum which will require another draft by this national authorities. The Situation. The absence of the*emire force of printers, with one exception, rendered it impossible for us to issue a paper within the past three weeks. The loss, however, is to ourselves and not to our sub scribers, as we have to make up all the lost Uum iers. Considering the circumstances which called >ur hands into the military ranks, we feel; sure hat our subscribers will freely forgive us. To attempt to give^ i faithful account of the scenes enacted and the universal excitement of the last three weeks, is ont of the question at this time. They would fill a book. With them, our readers are generally as well acquainted as our selves, therefore we will not repeat them, but con fine our reports to the latest news from the grand armies of the Union and rebellion, lately, and prohably at this time, engaged in a dreadful con flict on Pennsylvania and Maryland roil. The following vye take form the papers .of .this (Mon day) morning: ~ GLORIOUS NEWS FROM GEN. MEADE. Gettysburg, Friday, Jnly S, 1868. The third day’s battle began this morning at ,4 o'clock. The fight was commenced by the rebels on our right. The fight there has beennnqeasing, mil the irregularity of the fire—slack and scatter ing for awhile, and then heavy and continuous— indicates reinforcements on both sides. Sixteen hundred prisoners thus far during the engagement have been sent to the rear, and more are here. Important dispatches have been captured by Capt. Dahlgren and Kline, the gallant scout, from Jeff Davis and Cooper to Gen. Lee. They indi cate anxiqty for the safety of Richmond. Both decline to send Lee the reinforcements from Beau regard which be asked for. Hamoveb, Friday, Julyfi, 18fi3. The most terrific fights of the war has taken place. Our men stood np heroically. To-day was the mart awful of all. The lota on both rides has been tremendous. The rebel Generals Longstreet and Barksdale were mortally wounded and have since died. The fight raged furiously till ten o’clock last night. We took Gettysburg, occupying: two-thiids of the field—the rebels the other third. Gen. Sickles was wounded about 5 o’clock, in the right leg, which was subsequently amputated. He is doing well. Gen. Meade says that the ttoops are in excellent spirits and eager for the battle. On Wednesday’s battle, Gen. Meade says, the enemy far out-numbered os on tbs; field, but that onr men behaved admirably, and that ;the battle was one of the hardest fought actions of the war. The authorities have the names; as we are in formed, of ten citizens of Carlisle, Fa., who out traitored traitors in abasing themselves before the Rebel Gen. Jenkins. They assured him that they were friends to the Southern Confederacy, and begged, him to parole them, that they might not be drafted to fight against it. Gen. Jenkins wel comed them to his bosom, but remarked that, since they were such friends to the Southern cause, tiny were of course willing to fight for it, and actually put some of them into his ranks! I Before the joke was played fhrougn they began to repent of their truculent cowardice, and beg off; when the rebel General informed them that such men in the South would be shot, without judge or jury. Akwt OF THE Potomac, > July 8.8.85 P. The enemy opened at one o’clock P. M. with one hundred and fifty guns concentrated on our left and centre, and fought three hours. Hethen assaulted our entire lines bnt was handsomely re pulsed, with a very severe loss in deadend wounded, and leaving 3,000 prisoners in our hands. Brigadier General Armstead and many ptber officers were killed and captured. Tim enemy left many dead and wounded in our bauds. Our losses are considerable.' : Major General Hancock and Brigadier General Gibbons are wounded. : Gen. Meade pursued theenemy and found them in force on bis left. ■. All is quiet now. !

At about 8 o'clock last night the Florida Bri gade of General Longstreet’s division, with a Brigadier General in command, advanced to within onr lines and give themselves np with their colon. A bearer of dispatches from Jeff. Dayjs to Gen. Lee" has been captured. The dripatches order General Lee particularly to repeat to Richmond; he states the movement into Pennsylvania was totally against bis wishes. The following were among the officers killed and wonnded in yesterday V engagement: Col. Taylor, of the Bnckuil regiment, a brother to Bayard Taylor. Lieut. Col. Miles, of the same regiment. Lieut. Metier, of Philadelphia is wounded. Major Kenedy of the Eleventh New Jersy regi ment was wounded in the knee. We have captured at least eight thousand priso ners. Philadelphia. July 6, 1863. The following dispatch has been received at the War Department. Frederick. Md., July 4th— B p. k. To Gkn. Halleck, General-in-Chief •, An expedition sentout by me has just returned, baring entirely destroyed the enemy’s pontoon pridge over the Potomac at Williamsport, captur ing the guard, consisting of a lieutenant and thir teen men. (Signed,) W. H. FRENCH, Maj. Gen. GLORIOUS HEWS. VICKSBURG SURRENDERED. We have just received intelligence, purporting to be official, that Vicksburg surrendered to our forces on the 4th day of Joly. The Braider. The Braider is used for laying cord or narrow braid upon any fabric. The work resembles em brodiety and is popular for ornamenting children’s clothes, morning dresses, slippers, caps, ect. How are oob Dresses to be Maße ? — A contemporary answers the foregoing question in the following lively manner:—“ By a sewing machine, of coarse. We trust that the day is over in which needle drudgery sets a feeble op position to the musical click of tbe Wheeler & Wilson machine. A lady who says she docs not know how to use a sewing machine, is looked upon with as much distrust as a lady who says she .don’t like babies? Side by side, in every home, we see the piano amt sowing machine.—■ Of cou/se. i>eople have a right to their perforenccs, but give us the merry little musician whose crys tal eye ana silver tongue not only fill the ear with melody, but set the pulses of life and health throb bing anew in the weary beans of a million women. Is it not better than all the pianos ever turned ? Some of the newest improvements to the Wheeler & Wilson. machine, are the Binder, Braider and Corder, all of which ' ladies find in dispensable. The Braider is particularly appro priate to the present mania for decorating every thing with braid “Ido not know what we should da without the Wheeler & Wilson Braider,” said the director of one of our fashionable man tilla establishments, when we inquire how those tasteful labyrinths of braid were laid on, and his words are echoed in event home in the land.— Really, we scarcely know which blessing to wish our young lady friends—a Wheeler & Wilson machine or a husband Wc rather incline to the former, for they can exist minus the matrimonial alliance, bat can't do without a sewing machine. What do yon say, girls?” R. O. A. Kerr, Agent. How the Rebels are Taxed in the South If any one in the North is dissatisfied with his taxes, he should go to die South, the country which is called “ the only remaining home of liberty on this continent.” The Richmond .Senti nel of the 25th of May publishes in full the tax act of the rebel Congress. The various parts are condensed below : “The first section levies a tax of eight per cent, on the ‘ value of all naval stores, salt, wines, spirituous liquors, tobacco manufac tured or unmanufactured, cotton, wool, flour, sugar, molasses, syrups, rice and other agricul tural productions.’ Bankers are- taxed $500; auctioneers $5O, and 2} per cent, on their gross amount of their sales; wholesale liquor dealers are tailed $2OO and 6 per cent, on their gross sales; retail liquor dealers pay $lOO and 10 per cent, of gross sales; distillers pay $2OO and 20 per cent, of gross sti^s; hotels and eating-houses pay according to the yearly rental of their pro perty, from $€OJ a year down to $3O; theatres pay $5OO and 6 per cent, of gross receipts ; tobac conists pay $5O andj> per cent, of gross sales; billiard rooms pay $lO for each table; bmchers and bakers pay sso and 2} per cent, of sales; photographers, lawyers, apothecaries, doctors and confectioners pay $5O each, with a tax on all but lawyers and doctors of per cent, of sales. In comes are taxed as follows: over $5OO and un der $l,OOO a year; 5 percent.; over $1,500 and less than $3,000 a year, 5 percent, on the first $1,500 and 10 per cent, on the rest; over $3,000 and less than $5,000, 10 per cent; over $5,000 and less than $1(),000, 12j percent.; over 10,000, 15 per cent." Farmers are taxed savagely. We copy the provision verbntnm: “Sxc. 11." Each farmer and planter in the Confederate States, after reserving for his own use fiftv bushels of sweet potatoes and fifty bushels of Irish potatoes, one hundred bushels*of corn and fifty bushels of wheat produced in the present year, shill pay and deliver to the Confederate government* of the products of the present year, one tenth Ofthe wheat, corn, oats, rye, buckwheat, or rice, sweet and Irish potatoes, . and of the ’enred hay and fodder; also one tenth of the sugar molasses made of cane, cotton, wool and tobacco; the dotton ginned and pocked in some secure manner, and tobacco shipped and packed in boxes,, to be delivered by him on or before the first day of March in the next year.— Each fanner or planter, after reserving ’twenty bushels of peas or beans, bnt not more than twenty bushels of both, for their own use, shall deliver to the Confederate government, foctits use, one tenth of the peas oeans,and ground peas p>ro duced and gathered, by him during the present year.” Enrolling Officer Shot.— David Cathcart, enrolling officer for Knox township, Clearfield county, was shot the other day, and dangerously wounded. It seems as he' was riding along the road, andharing just passed a thicket of pines, ' some concealed and cowardly wretch shot him, the ball taking effifot in the heel and lodging in the from part of the foot, where it still remains. This quickly followed by another, which struck the horse on the front leg, cutting it severely. Ihe horse on being shot. Jumped ilnd threw Mr. Cath-, cart off, and he remained iytng on the road until some of the neighbors came along, who caught the horse and assisted Mr. C. in reaching his home. The wound inflicted on Mr. Cathcart is a severe , one, and, it is (hid, the old man is in rather a" critical condition, and may loss his foot if not his ! life. C IRC I*l-Alt TO THOSE WIDE- AWAKE TO THKIB own Interest*. —The snbscriber would respect fully announce to the public that he has returned from the East with his large and well assorted stock of goods, bought at the lowest cash prices, which he will dispose of at his usual small advance. OUR MOTTO. “ The nimble dime better than the slow dollar.'* ... Come one, cOmC all and be convinced that the cash system is to your advantage, and you will go away with the resolve that my establishment is the place to save money. No charge for showing goods. Call and examine. I would respectfully invite your attention to my well selected assortment of Ladies and Misses' Dry Goods, containing all the late and most de sirable styles of dresses* to be found in the Eastern markets, among which may be had, Mozambiqnes, Celliques, Killamay Checks, Union Checks, Shepertls Plads, Linen Lustres, Silk Poplins, a 'full and complete stock of fancy and plain Flannels and Shirtings, Linen, Muslin, Ladies and Gents Gloves and Hosiery, and a tremendous stock of Austin Kelly & Co’s Patent Hoop Sfirts, from four to fifty springs, which I Can sell at least 25 per cent, below Philadelphia retail prices. Also a great variety of Cloaking Cloths, varying in price fom 75 cts to $2,26 per yard, and the largest as sortment of Casaimers Sattinetts Tweeds, Jeans, ect., that is to be found in the country. Carpeting and oil cloths in great variety at lowest prices. LOOK.—My stock of groceries are selling a few cents below my would-be-rivals, who “can’t see it.” The cash system syhips still range from 40 to 70 cts. per gallon. Government coffee, bought before the late late heavy advances, I am selling at 22 cts per ponnd. It is superior to all the new fangled substitutes now selling. BEHOLD.—Our teas range from the low price of 60 eta. per pound, upwards. EXCELSIOR.—Our would-be-competitors stand aghast when they know we have the heaviest' and best assorted stock of crockery, china, glass and dclph ware to be found in any establishment between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, and that wc sell cheaper than-they can buy. “ They are superb,” is the common exclamation on examin ing our China Tea Sets, ranging in price from $l2 to $2O, which is lower than they can be pur chased in Pittsburgh. We are selling to people from all the surrounding counties, because wc keep a large stock from which to select, and sell > h.'ap. One examination will suffice to convince any one that we are not puffing our goods. All kinds of ornamental dower vases, mugs, glassware, and in fact all kinds of crockery ever imagined, we keep on hand. We arc still selling the celebrated Wcdgewood Iron Stone Sets for $5.00, which is 25 cts. cheaper than they can be bought for in Philadelphia or Pittsburg retail market. '' l cant see how it is done?” is the querv. Well, wo will tell you the secret—it is cash onty. By this means I am enabled to increase rav busi ness and stock steadily, while other establishments are glad to decrease theirs. We are not com lielled to add large profits to make np for losses by bad d jbts, and we save by paying cash for goods instead of buying on time and paying a higher figure. FATHERS & MOTHERS.—Our stock of children's carriages and coaches are just the thing for those who value the health of their children more than the small amount we charge for them. Those who use a carriage once will never go back to the old-fashioned way of dragging children around in their arms. Call and see our stock of infant carnages and cabs. Wheeler & Wilson’s Sewing Machine, of which I am the .sole Agent for Blair and Huntingdon counties, are the best machines ever used. They are perfect and warranted for two years. Ido not ask you to buy unless you are satisfied you are sa ving money by so doing. . R. A. O. KERB. Altoona May, 9th, 1863. A JOINT RESOLUTION PROPO SING CEETAIN AMENDMENTS TO THE CONSTITUTION.
