SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1864
Union Mass -Meetings!
A grand Union Mass Meeting will be
held in Hollidaysburg, on Tuesday, the 4th|
of October, and in the evening of the same
.day in Altoona. A number of distinguish
ed speakers will address the meetings, and
we have no'doubt, from present indica
tions, that there will be the most impos-|
itog demonstrations, in favor of the Union,
that ',our county has ever witnessed. —*
Those who desire to hear those great
measures which conduce to the welfare and
happiness of our country, ably discussed
aud illustrated, will do well to attend.
Another immense meeting will be held
in Bellefonle, Centre co., on Thursday, the
Oth pf October. The people of Centre
county are thoroughly aroused, and will
evince their devotion to the good cause hy
such a demonstration as will strike terror
to the hearts of traitors. A Brass Band
will be in attendance. We hope a deler
gatioit of our citizens will go to this
meeting-
General Couch has created a new
military district in this Department, com
prising the territory lying between the
Lnurpl' Hill Mountains, on the west, and
the Williamsport and Elmira railroad;
the Susquehanna river from Williams
port to the intersection of Blue Mountain,
and' that range of mountains to the Mary
land line on the east, to be known as the
Juniata District. Brg. Gen. O. S. Ferry
has been assigned to the command of the
distract, with headquarters temporarily at
Bedford.

decided that all who have paid the §3OO

is certain and it will relieve many of our
citizens.
From Mobile Bay.
The following private letter has been
handed us for publication:
H U. S. S. S. Lackawaxa,
Mobile Bay', Sept. 2d, 1834
'Friend Blair Yours, of the 7th ult.,
was received on Wednesday evening, help
ing: tp swell my share of the mail, also
helping y* drive away ihe Blues which a
fellow wiH get sometimes. 1 toll you we
ha tie had fo* be careful when on the Block
ade, and now since we are inside the bay,
welare just the reverse, and are as care
less as we can be. • Then we were all ex
pecting a good time alter we had, licked
the Johnnies out of their forts and run
into the ram, and although our bow is
terriUv used up below water line, and the
ship leaks pretty badly, we are still lying
here with the prospect of getting away.—
Besides all that, we expected if we did get
used up in any wav, we would be sent
North or to New Orleans to repair, so we
were building on having a gay time: but
that bps all been dampened by the whis
pers which I have heard of oitr going to
PennsacolaNuvy Yard -some day.” They
might as well consign us to the Dry Tor
tugas or some other place as to send us
therefor two,months, for a fellow can only
be;ashure till 9 P. M., and the only amuse
ment .is io get drunk °r roll in the sand;
for which I have'no great prefer. Don’t
yop think that is.sufficient to give a fellow
the blues? f
Tou will begin to think “that is an aw
fullong catalogue of growl George is let
ling out of him,” and so do I and am sur
prisedhowl let that much out. How I
would like to he in Altoona for a short
period of time. Let me see, Chestnuts
and so forth will soon be ripe, could'nt 1
have a bully old time. Go up to Wopso

imitate so much.
i There is no news here in particular ex
cept that it is very warm, and blood-thirs
ty mosquitoes ore duntinually making
mills on u a , we managing to come oft" vic
tors, but generally pretty badly used up. —
i For the last week We have bad art antidote
: for'lieut in the shape.of a lot of good ice
i from the North, which the good fathers
1 were kind enough tosemfus, as soimasthey
heard of our victory here, but that is
nearly gone, and I suppose; some morning
there will be nothing left of us but a grease
spot or a pool of perspiration —-awful to
think of. -y.
Perhaps you would like; mo to' tell you
| something about the Haiti “Tennessee.” 1
j can give you some little information as re
j gards her, as -1 was stationed on her for
eleven days after she was taken by us:
Site carries six rifles, two 8-inch and four
7-inch— altogether a rather formidable ar
mament. Beside that she '.lnis five inches
of plating on the sides of her casemate
and six inches on the two; ends iand pilot
house, but Yankee shot ;soon fixed that
for them. She also had qne-inch plating
on her decks, fore and aft. The upper
part of her casemate was co\ered with
grating tirade of 2-inch iron ; oil her bow
was a large, shary prow of iron, two feet
below the water jine. which was calcula
ted to make a large hole wherever it struck,
hut jc did nof strike any where. Did’nt
1 have an awful “hot time jin her; all the
officer’s quartersare below water line, and
whenever we ate our meals we used to pull
off our coats and wade in, staying in the
mess room no longer than was necessary
to finish our meals, which we made very
short. The temperature iof her engine
room was generally 125 and 130 degrees
and unden steam 149. In rainy weather
' it was difficult to find a dry place, unless
you offered up your body ti sacrifice to the
heat. She was, a safe old thing to fisrht
in. We went close under the gunsof Fort
Morgan, heaved their own shell at them,
and-received their complitnents in return,
getting struck nine times in various places,
but nobody hurt; but I saw several who
were badly scared. I have some of her
plating and would send you a piece, but
have no way 5 it;to you, lor they
won’t take j Iron through the
Post office.
1 Was glad was ordered back
to my own good hid Wooden ship. 'I he
ram has gone to New Orleans, where slm
ts undergoing some repairs. She leaks
very badly, having to keep the pump go
ing nearly all the time loikeep her free of
wafer. I thought she qras going to do
something one night when the wind blew
pretty hard.
We are having a raflnjr poor time at
present but are hanging tin in hope of the
good lime coming, and are extremely 1-de
sirous of its arriving very soon, if not
sooner. *
Talk about your summer residence at
the South, by the seaside ; I don't believe
in theiiTm the shape we ha\;e them, and
some parts of this bay are noted watering
places, though there is not much show of
it at present. The pr'ccs in this section
for hoarding at such places, are extremely
moderate for the present stage of things,
only 870 per week. Yours truly,

Deak Tkibuxe: —I liiive thought some
time since that your many readers would
be pleased to: hear from lids locality of
Umli Samuel's conquered possessions. In
the first place as to the beauties of the
country, this place (Huntsville) is one of
the most lovely spots in the' South, the
valley is some' ten miles in width and
fi>rty in length diversified with many
little copses of wood, the water is fine and
sufficient in quantity for any manufactu
ring purposes, and the mountains abound
in Iron ore and coal, (Fossil ore of the
j best quality); the manufacturing of Iron
I lias been carried on to a very limited
extent in this State from the many advan
tages ottered here to enterprise, but that
lack of enterprise you see in every State
that has liecn cursed with slavery. Thank
-God” that evil is fast playing out, the
soil here is excellent mid well adapted for
the growing of all kinds of cereals, the
corn crops here will be a heavy one wher
ever cultivated ; there is considerable of
cotton also being grown, mostly by Union
men, from the confiscated lands of the
Keliels, Parties are here now from the
North offering as the cotton stands in the
field $250 per acre. One man will attend
to ten acres, and the average yield per
acre will be about a bale of 400 lbs, so
you may judge of the profit.' There is oac
I 'man from the State of New York near
Decatur Junction, some thirty miles from
here, has Eleven hhpdred acres planted in
cotton and corn, and all along the line of
the Nashville, Decatur and Stevenson
Rail Road, are many fields of cotton
being raised by northern men with paid
labor. I consider the growing of cotton
from the present arrangement with the
U. S. Gov’t., one of the didst profitable
enterprises now being engaged in in-this
locality, as the growers themselves are
Ike only parties that have permission to
ship cotton over the Hites of the VV. S M.
R. R.; the lints are all heavily guarded all
the way from Nashville to this point, and
good Illock Houses at every bridge and
trcssel, so there is no danger of any cap
ture of the shipment of cotton. There hits

fifteen pieces of artillery, and from two to three
him. red prisoners.
Gen. ord was wounded in the leg, though not
dangerously. Gen.'Birney advanced at the same
time from’ Deep Bottom, and carried the New

enemy in every direction, though he captured hut
few. ■ ...

Another Version of Morgan’s Death
On Saturday, the 3d instant, says the
Richmond Enquirer , accompanied by the
brigades of Giltner, Hodges and Smith,
and a detachment of Vaughan’s with four
pieces of artillery, General Morgan and
his staff approached the Green
ville, Tennessee. Scouts had brought the
information that the enemy were not
nearer than Bull's Gap, sixteen miles dis
tant ; and, in addition, a guard had been
sent into the village to reconnoitre. Upon
the report of the entire absence of the
enemy, Cassell’s battallion, commanded
by Captain J. M. Clarke, together with
the lour guns, were posted some three or
four hundred yards from iht; Court House,
when General Morgan entered and estab
lished headquarters at the residence of
Mrs. Dr. Williams, near the-centre of the
town. Shortly after the advent of the
guard in town, young Mrs. Williams
(daughter in-law of the lady at whose
house General Morgan had his headquar
ters) disappeared ; a scout was sent for
but conld not find her, and as she returned
with the. enemy next morning, it appears
she had ridden all the way to Bull’s Gap,
and had given information of Morgan's
whereabouts, and the strength of the
guard.
Precautions Imd been taken to prevent
the egress of persons who-might convey
information to the enemy, and all the
roads and avenues Were picketed. After
visiting the camps amlsdßng that pickets
had been duly posted, Gen. Morgan, and
his staff, at a late hour of the night, re
tired to rest. Being greatly fatigued, they
slept very soundly, and were startled from
their slumbers at six o’clock on £ unday
morning by'the elder Mrs. Williams, who
informed them that the Yankees had sur
rounded’the house. The General and his
staff at once sprang from their beds, armed
themselves, and rushed out at the opposite
door to that at which the Yankees were
thundering.
On the side of the house where they es
caped is a Very large yard arid garden
with a great deal of foliage and a vine
yard. These, together with the basement
of the old hotel at the southwestern ex
tremity ofthe grounds, enabled them to
conceal thehiselves for a time, but the
Yankees by this time began to appear so
thick and fast around them that conceal
ment became hopeless, and they rushed
out to attempt to fight their way through,
Ex pouts and Isii-OKTo. —A Wiishlng
ton ittfin states tlmt since July Ist, only
two months, the exports from New York
have exceeded the imports some twenty
six millions of dollars, in comparison with
the amount sent abroad during the same
lime lust year. The same condition of
things is remarked at other ports. Those
exportations are, in a considerable degree,
composed of foreign goods, which are sent
back because the demand for them, at the
high prices which have been maintained
in sympathy with the increase in the
value of gold, are beginning to tell upon
consumption. Economy is becoming the
order of the day. and every succeeding
[ hour increases its necessity. We have
: been hitherto running riot in extrava
■ gance. and have encouraged foreign opera
: tors to send us their most costly and most
j useless goods. IJy doing so we have in
j creased prices upon ourselves until, upon
I the most ordinary commodities, we have
i piled up values to fearful rates. Diinin*
! ished consumption must lollow, and
although (he heartless gamblers in gold
may occasionally pul up the price of that
commodity for a few days, the result must
be, upon the average, a gradual and
steady decline. Let it come—the sooner
