, M . M’Catw 4 D*en No doubt a few
.. M from our eomptny would be agreeable to
nv resets of your paper, informing them of
„- hereabout*, what we are doing, and how the
Liion passed off yesterday. We «e st.ll en-
Lnoed in the pUce assigned us on our arrival, at
1 CMft House, and the boys am engaged
Irtimt up comfortable quarters and biuldmg forts
L earthworks. We are about finishing our line
, works, which extend from the Appomattox to
Les Biter, opposite Harrison’s Landing, a d.s
ofeleten miles. Fort Porter, in our imme
diate fronts splendid field fort, and reflects
ma ch credit on those who engineered it. It is
mounted with 32 pounders and a battery of Par
roll guns. If any of the young “ Jrimny Kcbs
louWtake it into their heads to pay us a visit
will find us on the alert and ready to revive
them with opened arms.
The election passed off very properly. The
companies were abundantly supplied with tickets
of both parties. The electioneering was chiefly
among the privates, the officers, of both parties,
being quiet spectators. The Republican majority
foots up 63 votes. When we consider the element
the greater portion of the regiment is composed of,
chitflv men from those counties that polled such
extraordinarily heavy majorities against the first
Amendment; such, for instance, as Berks, I think
we did well- -
The greater portion of honor is due Company
A, which polled 61 votes, and resulted in “Father
Abraham ” coming out in the lead with 37 ma
jority. There were only 12 Democratic votes
polled. When we were mustered into service, the
qualified electors of our company stood 31 Re
publican and SO Democratic ; but when Demo
crats came here and saw with their own eyes and
beard with their own ears, they changed base and
came for supplies to the Union side, and cast
iheir suffrage for the noble pilot who stands by the
helm .and will finally anchor the Ship of State in
a safe harbor. The “frosty Sons of Thunder,”
Irom Cambria, who are members of Co. A. were
for the Union.
The Rebels on our front were exceedingly quiet
yesterday, but this morning cannonading and
musketry appear to be the order of the day. The
westher'is quite warm, but the roads are very
muddy, in consequence of late rains.
Very Kccpectfully Yours,

Thanksgiving . —Thursday next has been set

Thanksgiving, and the Governor of this State has
•dopiei) it as a day of thanksgiving throughout the
commonwealth. We trust our people will observe
it in a becoming manner. Let all business ba
suspended and the churches opened for service be
well filled. Bev. W. U. Mills will deliver a dis
course, suited to the occasion, in the Methodist
Church, »! half-peiit 10 o'clock A. M. We have
not been iolui med of the arrangements for services
in the other churches, bat presume all will be open

looking as though Uncle Sam’s bill of fare had a
healthful influence upon them. Althongh the
Ixivs have not been to the front, and have not
been called upon to bear the brunt of bailie, they
deserve the credit due to all, who responded to the
calls of our noble Governor, in days of danger, and
we honor them and welcome them buck- The
following persons who were also mcmlters of the
company have re-enlisted for one year: Dave C,
i Eiirhart, John D. Askwith,- Adic A. Stevens,
Allison M. Sticknry, Wm. D, Beck, Thomas M.

Habii to Believe, —Within the jiasi week,
one of our citizens, whose name we forbear men
tioning at present, well known and remarked for
his correct deportment and quiet disposition,
whose temper no one has even seen amused suffi
ciently to engage iir the least quarrel, and much
less to lay him open to the charge of malice
aforethougiit in taking life, has been adjudged
gnilty of the latter crime. ' The bill of indictment
charges him with feloniously lying in wait and
stealthily stealing up behind Mr. Buck, a resident
of Clearfield county, and, with malice aforethought,
taking his life by shooting him with a rifle gun,
and afterwards cutting bis.throat with a knife.—
What the provocation was, is doubtless unknown
to the unfortunate victim, as he made no effort to
avoid the man who sought bis life.; We have not
‘learned whether Mr. B. had_ a : family. The
| whole afiair will be investigated, and we sltitll have
; more to say about it hereafter, should the circum
: stances, as related, prove true.
Smart Fellows.—On Election day two Irish
men attempted to vote in Allegheny township,
who had procured exemption from the draft on
the ground of alienage. To get exempted eacli
one of them had to swear that he had not been
naturalized, and that he had not voted. Yet
when challenged at the Election window ns aliens,
each one promptly produced certificates ot natu
ralization taken out two or three years ago. Three
of the Provost Guard happ< ned to be at hand, and
prumptlv arrested these American citizens. They
are now confined in jail, and will sutler the
penalty of false swearing. Ot course it is very
tyrannical and fraudulent, a great abuse of the
elective franchise, to tear these worthies from their
families, but nevertheless Ciipt. Lloyd is deter
mined to put them through. These are two of
the gentlemen who say the soldiers have no right
to vote, ■

We must refer in terms of eulogy to the high tond and
varied excellences ofliA&PEA’s Magazine—a journalvwitii
a monthly circulation of about 170 000 copies—in whose
page* ai e t«> be found some of the choicest light and general
reading of the day. We speak of this work as an evidence
of the American people; and the popularity it lias acquir
ed is merited. Each Number contains fully 144 pages of
reading matter, appropriately illustrated with good {wood
cuts ; and it combines in itself the racy monthly and the
more philosophical quarterly, blended with the fea
tures of the daily journal. It has great power in the dis-
Beminatii n of a love of pure literature.-Turner's Guide

The volumes, bound constitute of them selves a library
