The need of Blackberry- Brandy, for use in all

are losing lives valuable to home and to country
•or the want of this remedial agent. We call oa
all our Aid Societies to exert themselves to their
utmost in meeting thus demand.; It will-be well -
to invest a part of their funds, if necessary, m the
ureoarmtion of this articles. We append a recipe,
fhin no one may be at a loss as to the mode of
urcnaring it. What is done must bodone quickly.
Delay brings death, desolates homes, weakens the
armv’s stengih. . ' . ,
did linen and muslin and bandages are also
needed in large quantity. Hospitals crowded
with wounded men arc suffering for want_of thpm.

tf 'in several boroughs and townships in the dis-j

shaj’s Office, in Hollidaysburg. for the purpose of
paving bounty to volunteers to fill their
cairie to the conclusion, at the opening of the re.
enuring business, that they wonhl not be interfered
with bv interlopers and bounty sharks from other
districts, and When and) characters have
ihey have been quickly sent adrift with a very
large flea in their ear. As soon as they were
known to be about they were waited upon and the
length of their stay in town assigned—the same
not being over ten minutes. On* of these gentry
appealed to Capt. Lloyd, Provost Marshal, for
protection and was informed that the latter had
is. much business in bis office as he could attend
to, »nd if the former got into a scrape he would
have to help himself out of it. The best way to
keep out of a scrape,was to get out. of town, and he
adopted that plan. •
I ueoaiAitT, nt Tbdb.—The Harrisburg Tele
graph of Monday gives the following special dispatch
iV.iiii Washington“lt is understood to-day that
*f:ejr mature reflection Provost Marshal Genera)
Fry has concluded to reverse a former decision in
relation to the $BOO commutation paid by parties
who were drafted during the last conscription.-
The decision shortly to be promulgated will ex
empt all those whopaid the commutation of three
hundred dollars for three years. This is an im
portant decision, alike just in its character and in
fluential it its tendency." The above wo give for
what it is worth, but in case it should prove cor
rect* it might be pertinent to enquire whether those
men who paid $3OO commutation on the last draft,
and: have since put in a substitute to get alcar of
the Impending draft, will get their money hack
There are hundreds such; and, as in doing so they
acted under a former decision of Mr. Pry, it would
seem only fair, if this decision is to be revoked,
that they should have their money returned.
llbuqnatiok asd Appoistmknt.— J araes H.
Hyewt, Esq., has resigned the office of Ticket and
Freight Agent of the Fenn’a B. R. Co., at this
•lation, and John Shoemaker, Esq., has been ap
pointed to All the vacancy. Mr. Dysart was an
accommodating and competent officer, and his
resignation will be regretted hy ail who had hush
ne*s relations with him. His successor is fullv
f
competent for the position. The change took ef
fect, on the Ipt inst.
Leo Smashed.— -On Thursday evening last, a
hoy about 16 years of age, son of Henry W. Sny
der,: of this place, attempted to jump on the Fast
Line, as it was polling up through the yard, anti
missing his fooling, felt npon the track, with otic
foot on the rail. A car wheel ran over it, crush
ing,the foot and ankle in,such a manner that am
putation was rendered necessary.
Opesiso of the Schools.— The public schools
of this place will open on Monday next, Septem
ber: sth, and be kept open for the term of nine
months. John Rutherford, selected as principal
of the Primary Department, in West Ward, has
enlisted in the one year’s service. His successor
has not yet been appointed. .■
Peaches.—Notwithstanding the reports of the
pafien that peaches am a drug in the Philadelphia
and Baltimore markets, they scarcely come down
to a purchaseable pice in this market. They have
heen sold as low as $1.25 per basket—equal to
about about $2 50 per bushel. This, considering
the present price of sngar ,and cans, make them
rather an expensive luxury, |

SHERIFF
Kds. Thiuusk :—We desire to announce to the
people in your paper, that Mi Martin: Bechtel, of
Hollidaysburg, will bea candidate for Sheriff of
Bhiir County at the coming election. Mr. Bechtel
is en honest, intelligentman, and would make a
very competent officer. Besides, he has claims
upon thsVpters oTlhisCoanty which should noi be
lightly passed over. In the Ball of 1861 he volun
teered to fight the battles of his conn try, and re
mained in the service until after the battle of Get:
lyshurg, where he lost an arm, and became thereby
incapacitated for further active duty. He is now
at home, crippled for life, anti is unable to secure a
livelihood by labor, Kvery principle of gratitude,
honor and patriotism demands that we should take
care to reward, our crippled herpes for their sacri
iioesand bravery. To save our State fmni invasion,
and our homes from desecration, he periled Ins lltc,
and lost a limb, and we rcty much mistuku the
patriotism of the people of Blair county if they per
mit his noble services to go Ujirewnixh d. now that
they have an opportunity of' testifying their grat
itude. We.also ask yon to publidi the following
card ofMr. Bechtel, containing his writ ll n consent
to become a candidate. •
At the solicitation of numerous citizens, w:tliout
distinction of Party, I hereby consent m become

duty's of the office to the bestof mv ability.

SPECIAL OE
THIS LOAN.
It is a National Rank, ofluring a higher rate
of Interest than .any other, and the best security. Any sav-
ings bank which pays Us deposits in U. N. Not***, consider*
tliat it is paying in the best circulating medium of tin
country, and it cannot pay in anything hotter. f«*r ii- own
assets are either in government securities nr in not#-?* nr
bonds payable in government paper.
It U equally convenient as a temporary or permanent
investment. The notes can always be sold fur within a
fraction of their fkcc and accumulated interest, and are
the best security vVDh bunks as collaterals for discounts.
Costtrtible into a Su per ceat. 5-2 t) fioid Bold
In addition to the very libera) interest ou the notes for

three per cent, per annum, for the currant rate lor *>-20
Honda is not lem than nine-per, cent, premium, and before

twenty per cent. It will be seen that the actual profit on
this loan, the presen! market rate, i* not less than ten
per cent, per annum.

But aside from all tbe juivantages We have enumerated,
a * pedal Act of Congress exempts all botuh- ami Trr<j(nry

U worth about’two p•- emit. per annum, according to the
rate of taxation in vn. i«.us parts of the country,
It j* believed that no securities'offer so great induce-

all other forms'of in lebb.-dnesd, the fnith or ability of pri

guard.
In district* infected with liver and Ague, it baa been
onud infallible as a preventive aud irresistible as a reme

an attack, escape the scourge; and thousands who neglect
to avail themselves of its protective qualities in advance,
are cured by a very brief course of this marvelous medi

that dangerous alkaloid, are not nnfrequdntly restored to

Is most conclusive, aud from both sexes.
Tlie agony of Bituoce Couc is immediately assuaged by
a single dose of the stimulant, and by occasionally resort

As a General Tonic, HOSTETTEU’S BITTEKS produce

Last, but uot least, it is The only Safe Stimulant, bfeitis
manufactured from bound and innocuous materials, 'and
entirely free from the acid elements present more oMess
in all tho ordinary tonics and stomachics pf the day.
No family medicine has been so universally, and, it tuay
