'■trader this caption the Johnstown Democrat ex
poses and denounces' a fraud that was practiced
upon the people of that town by one Captain
Ryckiuan. in the disposal of recruits. Some fifty
five men were forwarded to Harrisburg in charge
of Rvckmap, with the understanding that they
•wcr* to be credited tip Johnstown, the people of
that place agreeing to pay. a local bounty of two
hundred and ten dollars to each man thus credit
ed. Robert H. Canan, Esq., was deputed by, the
citizens to follow Ryclunan.io Harrisburg and pre
vent the recruits from being sold and credited to
another county. This he endeavored to do, but
failed in the object of his mission. Soon af
ter the arrival of the recririte in Harrisburg they
were taken to Provost Marshal Clement's office,
mustered in and credited to Chester county. The
men received a cash bounty of only two hundred
and ten dollars, and Chester county paid three
hundred and fifty dollars! i The question is, who
got the one hundred and .forty dollars per head
which the men did not receive ? One hundred
and forty dollars apiece for about fifty-five men
will amount to nearly eight tboosanu dollars !
A snug little operation. The,outrage becomes the
greater, as it leaves the authorities no time
to secure enlistments between this and the appoin
ted time for the draft. The people of Johnstown
have a right to be incensed and to remonstrate
against this proceeding, and, if possible, prevent

Broken Promises.
Mssses McCrux & UF.EK Permit ns,
through your columns, to inquire of the committee
appointed to collect and distribute raonev to the
families of the men who enlisted for the emergency,
lust summer, why it is that the money then so
faithfully promised, by the influential men of the
town, has not yet been paid ? At the time that
we entered the service of the Stale we were in
formed that the money was ready to be [mid at the
proper time, whieh'iwe understood to be each week
until we returned.
The offer was made, without our solicitation,
but we accepted it and performed our part of the
contract lo the best of our ability, while those who
made the promise have neglected theirs, by pay
ing only a small part of the sum agreed upon to
some of the claimants, ' while Olliers received
nothing.
Mow. will the committee be so kind ns to ex
plain the matter to as, through the columns of the
Irihmie. If we are not to receive the amount
promised, we ought to know why it is withheld.—
If the committee lias done its part. >and the failure
Ims been on the part of those who promised the
money, justice demands that the names of the
persons who failed to make good their promises
should be published, so that the public may be able
to distinguish between ihe men who have the hon
esty to fulfil their promises, and those sordid crea
tures who are not possessed of that virtue.
Respectfully Yours.

Death of Hon. Gkoiu.k A. Coki i.v.—We
regret to announce the death, on Saturday last, at
ids residence in Philadelphia, of the Hon. G. A.
Coffey, United folates District Attorney for the
Eastern District of Penn'a. About a year ago
Mr. Coffey was struck by paralysis, but had some
what recovered from it and seemed to Tic improv
ing. His last illness was produced by a fresh
stroke of the same disease. Mr. Cofl'ev was form
erly a citizen of this place. He was educated at
Dickinson College for the ministry, but prefering
the law, changed his professing and became a
practising attorney. He took a very active part
in public affairs in Philadelphia since he lias resi
ded there, mostly as a Republican, though
for a short time be was connected with the Demo
cratic party. In all the election canvasses of the
last six years he was an active, energetic, earnest
speaker. Mr. Coffey also devoted some attention
to literary pursuits, and wrote for the newspaper
press at various times, writing with facility, spirit
and grace. Has demise will excite a deep regret
among a large circle of friends. He was forty
three years of age. for a number of years he
had been the law partner of the Hon. Wm. D.
Kelley. —HolUdayshurg Whuj.
Grand Concert.. —Two grand vocal and instru
mental concerts will be gived in the P K. R. caT
shed, in this place, on the evenings of the 13th
and 14th of April next, for the benefit of the
Ladies’ Soldiers’ Aid Society. Extensive prepar
ations have been and are still being made for the
occasion, and it will doubtless be one of the grand
est affairs of the kind ever gott en up in this sec
tion. The object is worthy of the patronage of
all, and we hope the expectation of the Indies who
have it in charge will be fully realized.
Religious.— Rev. J. H. Schmidt, Pastor of the
German Lutheran Church, East Altoona, will
hold a public examination, with his class of cate
chumens, on next Sunday, March 6th, at 2 o’clock
P. M., both in the English and German language
The public is respectfully invited to attend. Con
firmation will take on the Sunday following
March 31th.
A Fat Take Lost.— Austin B. Williams, a
highly respectable primer, for twelve years past an
employee of the New York Times, died of appo
plexy on the 21st inst. He weighed' four hundred
and twenty ;ponnds, and l it took seventeen yards
of broadcloth to make him an out-fit. He was
very temperate in his habits, neither drinking nor
using tobacco. His hnijipr and wit is said to nave
been of a superior order. Barnum often sought
him for hia popular resort, but his exceeding sen
sitiveness would never permit him to become an
object of popular curiosity.

GRAND VICTORY!
THE CASH SYSTEM Ttil UMPHANT!
Two years experience has convinced me that
when goods are sold fur Ctw/<, they can be sold at
a very small advance on first cost; therefore I
have determined to make another reduction in
my prices, to take effect
ON AND AFTER DECEMBER 4rh. 1863
In taking tins step. I have been actuated solclvi
by a desire to benefit the laboring classes. While
there has been but a small advance in wages, the
necessaries of life have advanced enormously, and
the prospects are that they will still go higher.
Believing that the additional amount of goods
which I can sell, at the reduced prices, will Justify
me in my undertaking, I respectfully invite the
attention of the public to the following figures.—
Almost even priM.n is aware of the prices at
which the goods .•*|»ceiried are now selling, hence
they will readily note the reduction, and can easily
figure up the saving to them in them in the course
of a year. My prices have heretofore been as low.
if not lower, than those of any other merchant in
the country. but 1 now make the following ivum-

I wish all to understand that these prices are
for CASH ONLY—that they are made tooeeom
modate persons of small means, to whom it is an
object to purchase where the can save a few cents
on each article—and that, they will be adhered to
strictly for the present, and so long, in the future,
as my sales will justify. After making the reduc
tion I must donblr my sales in order to make its
much money as I did at the old prices- The pub
lic can at once discover that it is to their advantage

HOSTETTpa’B CELEBRATED STOMACH BITTERS
is ope of the greatest strengthening preparations extant
If is especially adapted to those who are afflicted with the
Fever and Ague, or any other disease arising from a dis
ordered condition of the digestive organs. For the Fever
and Ague there is perhaps no medicine in the world e jual
iO it, or it enters, purities the blood, which is so Important
to bring about a healthy action in*diseases of this nature.
The Bitters are now among the most popular, and at the
same time, valuable specifics in the medical world; In re
commending it to the public, we are fully conscious of
doing them a great service, knowing, as we do, their many
excellent qualities, and sure and speedy action in all ca
ses where the disease is caused by irregularity of the dj,
gestive organs. A trial will suffice for the most skeptical.
