Editorial Change.— The Holliday ebury Be

llollidaysburg, by whom it will hereafter be con
ducted- Mr. D. .is a- good writer, and we cor
dially welcome him-, into the editorialifintamity.
Messrs. Jones & Caldwell, the retiring editors and
proprietor also have our best wishes for their fu
inre success and prosperity.
■‘That’s What’s the Mattbb.” —The senior
editor of this paper has been rejuvenating in the
emmtry for the past week, and a continual run of
inli work has prevented us from giving that atten
tion to the paper which is necessary to make it
tit interesting and profitable to our patrons as we
desire; but, as they are, generally speaking, very
clever folks, we hope they will excuse jus for our
lark of original matter in this number—inasmuch
j- editors must have a little play, and job printing
must be done.
Catholic P Am. —Our Catholic friends have
another project on foot, in shape of a Fair, to aid
in liquidating the debt upon the new Chorcb.—
This time the ladies alone have the matter in hand,
and judging from the industiy and enterprise with
which they have gone to work, there is no qnestion
hut what the' Fair will prove an attractive and suc
cessful one. The time has not been fixed for
Having it, but when it is we shall t ake pleasure in
announcing the fact. In the meantime we hope
all who feel like aiding a good cause will lend a
helping hand to the kulies in their enterprise.
Seasonable. —Autumn, which in the country
means com husking, apple gathering, cider-making,
{uLito digging, fall plowing, and implies the de
lights of nut-gatheriqg, paring-bees, harvest dances,
and the like,’and in the city suggests woolen draw -
ers and the necessities of winter fuel,: is with tis.
Summer, the flowing maiden, has packed away
her etherial wardrobe and gone southward, and
her vacant lodgings are being pat in readiness for
the Winter, of the frosty beard, who is pot so
forbidding as he looks, especially when a little rosy
on good cider. He comes like Death, “ after the
fall,” and likethatgruzly monarch, prepares uni
versal nature to live again. We take it for granted,
vou see, (hat it will be “ all right in the Spring."

, Indications op a ; Severe Winter. —The
weather (irophets, says u coteinporary, predict n
severe winter, each one testing his prediction upon
certain supposed infallible signs. The principal
signs manifest this year are the movements of
Ashes and migratory birds early in the season, and
the unusual care; of the amphibious animals to pro
videagainstcold. It Is found that in Minnesota and
the northwestern States the brook trout are leav
ing the shallow streams and breaking to the deep
pools modi earlier than usual, and that the musk
rats are fortifying their hybemating habitations
against the intense celd weather by another thick
layer of rand. In the east it is discovered that
the wild fowl are streaming southward unusually
early this season. The husks on the com are
also thicker than us|ial. These are regarded as
almost; infallible: indications of a severe winter.
There have bfeen weather prophets since the days
of Jonas, each of whom had a particular sign by
which to foretell the seasons. Most of them have
been humbugs, only hitting the mark once in a
dozen attempts. These popular signs might have
worked well in former times, but “ all signs fail
now-a-days”—except lager beer signs. Yet it
is undoubtedly true, that an all-wise Providence
has gifted his irrational creatures with an instinct
which enables them to provide suitably against
seasons of unusual intensity, and this instinct may
extend even to the vegetable kingdom. And, al
though phenomena judicative of cold weather have
frequently been observed of some one species of
animal' or plants, yet not followed,by cold
weather, it has hardly ever been known that so
many (Concurrent signs of long and bitter cold
weather foiled or proved deceptive.
We am therefore inclined to occept the vatici
natjonsofthe weather prophets this time. If they
should prove true, the ignorant, confounding effect
with pause, will believe the cold weather was
caused, by the wild ducks and the muskrats juid
the corn husks, whereas their instinctive prepara
tions wept but the effect of the coming cold. If
proud than was but gifted with like unerring in
stincts, bow nicely could he compute the exact
amount of coal to lay m for the coming season !
John Minor ißotta and the Bebel
Seretary of War.
Washington, Oct. 23.—A friend just returned
with the army on its backward march, gives
me an interesting account of his vistit to John
Minor’Botts. :He found that gentleman enjoying
his beautiful farm of 2,100 acres, which he’has
recently purchased for $lOO,OOO in Confederate
currency. Mr. Botts had just met with the rebel Sec
retary of State, and gave the following account of
Judah P. Benjamin ’send of the war ;
In the course of the conversation,: Mr. Benja
min asked Mr. Botts bow long he thought the
war would last. The latter replied tjpt he could
tell if he only new how long the South could raise
men. When they could no longer fill np their
ranks the war would stop. In bis turn Mr. Boots
asked the Secretary if he still adhered to his opin
ion expressed at the; commencement of the rebel
lion, that the War should be continued till thev
had every part of slave soil, including Maryland,
Kentucky, Missouri, &c.
Mr, Benjamin said that he did. Mr. Botts
who happened to liitve an apple in his hand, cat
ting of} a slice, said;: “ That represents Kentucky,
which iyon.hare lost.” Another still represented
Tennessee, arid a third Louaiana. Vicksburg and
the' Mississippi ‘ were shown by a cut of the apple
that penetrated.to its very cote. Finally, when
Mr. Batts had cut away more than half the apple,
be saip: “Now, Mr. Benjamin, when you can
put the seven* pieces of apple together again as
nature joined I them, you may hope to reconqner
every foot of slave soil, and not till then.” j
proclamation of the President calling
for three hundred thousand volunteers, and order
ing a draft if they are not raised in abont three
months, is approved by the great majority of the
people. It isnot established that volunteering is
a failure. The present; experiment will test the
matter. If fee men needed will volunteer, so
much the bettor. If they will not, the draft comes.
The President makes his appeal to the people di
rectly : “I address myself,” he says, “not only to
the Governors of the several States, bat also to the
good and loyal people thereof, invoking them to
lend their willing, cheerful and effective aid, with
a view to strengthen our victorious armies now in
the field, and bring our needful militaiy operations
to a prosperous end,; thus closing forever the foun
tains of sedition and civil war.”
Seven Rebel Mementoes. —Edgar L. Morse,
of Middleboro, of fee Fourth Massachusetts (nine
months’) Regiment, has abundant reason to re
member the rebels, as we learn by a paragraph in
the Taunton Gazette. In the first assault npon
Port Hudson he was wounded in seven places, and
was taken and held prisoner until the surrender of
the tonifications to Gen. Banks. His right arm
was shattered ln two places and amputated below
the elbow; a hall passed along his. scalp, and a
buckshot across hia forehead, and still another
ball through his thigh, has left his leg weakly.
The seventh wound was a musket ball in the right
breast. After all, he says his health is better now
than When he enlisted; ; but be will not very soon
forget the rebels. He has just arrived home, hay
ing been left behind in hospital when bis regiment
returned home.
Fbom York Rivee.— The Richmond Whig of
October 20th; says;—A-gentleman from the im
mediate vicinity of Yorktown says that a large
number of transports were gathered near the mouth
of York riv'ferSLOar informant had not learned the
destination of, the troops, but it was rumored that
it was the intention of the Federals ,to land troops
in the yicitiiity of West Point. Gunboats had
been actively engaged in sweeping the channel of
the river near the latter place, looking for torpe
does, which toey feared had been sunk there by
the Confederates. As yet there has been no gen
eral movement of Yankee troojw from that direc
tion. 1
Ccwtrabakd Milk.—The following extract
from igeneral order No. 2 of Lienti Col. King, of
the Massachusetts 35th, who is military command
ant of Lexington, Ky., is original and decidedly
l>ointed ; “ Frequent complaintshaving been made
that (he milch cows of citizens have been milked,
and oftentimes detained for days by persons con
nected with the army, if such practices are contin
ued pud can bo brought home to any one, the of
fender will be dealt with in a manner to make him
wish that earlier in life he had been weaned from
a love for milk.”
Repeal Urged.—An early repeal of. the $3OO
section of the Conscription Act ~by Congress will
be urged in December, and it is - probable that in
tile next draft, exemption by money will be im
possible. . Some persons advocate a new law, fix
ing the exemption price as high as $6OO, or even
$1,500, and providing that the drafted men who
go tOjthe anny shall receive the money so raised
in their district. This scheme is said to have origi
nated with Mr. Chase.
