Axoraer Fies. —Last Sunday night, about ten o'clock, our citizens were alarmed by the ery of “fire !” and! on repairing to the spot, found the hogse of Jane Butler, an old colored woman, living in Bishop street, in flames. The conflagration is supposed to have originated tiough carelessness on the “part of the occupant of the house, in piacing a candle too neur her bed, when she retired for the night. = The house was burned to the ground, together with everything in it, save a few articles of trifling value. For some time considerable anxiety was felt for the house next above 1t, but as the building on fire was but a small- one, it seon burned «down, and thus relieved its neighbor of all danger. : As usual, there was nothing on hand t, put the fire out with, even had the building been worth saving We believe there is an engine in town some where, but we wunder- stand it is not in working order. Wo hear that there is now some talk of raising a fire This would be a good idea, but we suppose it will all end in talk, as is gen- erally the case after the excitement caused by the immediate danger of fire has abated. However, we hope the young men will go to work and raise a good “Fire Company,” and get the old engine in working order once more. o RerurNenp Hone. —Ira O. Mitchell, Esq., after an absence of nearly eight months, has returned to his office and resumed his pros fessional duties. Mr. Mitchell has been en gaged in the recruiting service, and during fast fall and winter was in charge of Camp Crossman, at Huntingdon, Penna, which was established by him. The 84th and 110th Regiments, that did such gallant work among the rebels at Winchester recently, were re «cruited and organized under his auspices. — “The numerous clients and friends of Mr, M, will be glad to welcome him again to our " mnidst, AE 077 We learn that there was quite a nice Gittle muss kicked up on the corner of Alle- gheny and Bishop street, (generally known as strychnige corner) the other night, be- tween a couple of ‘‘covies,”” both about “three sheets in the wind.” in which there was some fancy sparring and swearing done, to the infinite gratification of a small crowd of lookers on. These little exhibitions are becoming quite frequent of late, and are <egginly very illustrative of the pugnacious spirit of some of our society. Probably a night's lodging with Sheriff Alexander would be to their advantage. Q— — 077 From present appearances, business ids fair to be brisk in Bellefonte this Spring. Two new stores have been opened, and heavy stocks of goods brought on. One at the store room formerly occupied by the Wilson Brothers, by Mr. Abraham Sussman. and the other at the old Grafius stand, re- cently occupied by Martin Stone, by Cook & Brown, of Howard. We would remark to the gentlemen of both these new establish~ ‘ments that advertising is the soul of busi aiess, and that a resort to “printer's mk” would be highly advantageous to them. We hope to see them patronize the printer. ern) 157 Mr. John Hoffer, of the firm of ‘*Hof- for Brothers,” has returned from the city, where he has been purchasing one of the finest lots of goods ever brought to this town.

COUNTERFEIT SMALL Bivis. —The copious issues of small bills by our State banks has opened a wide field for the ingeruity of counterfeiters, who seem to be almost daily - adding to the s'ock of bogus paper money in circulation. Under the circumstances the public, especially those remote from large cities, who do not receive daily infore mation of new frauds, cannot be too cau- tious in receiving bank notes. It is of course the strictly conscientious who suffer most by the circulation of counterfeit bills, those, ‘who, having been victimized by one, prefer pocketing the loss {o passing it upon .a who profess honesty, make it a point to lose nothing by bad money and pass genuine and spurious notés indifferently, considering them ¢“ good as long as they pass,” paying them out if returned, and again and again, until they cannot be traced to them. This class is removed but slightly from the cqun- terfeiter in guilt, and some safeguard against them should be employed. If every person receiving a suspicious bill woald mark the name of the person from whom he receives it on the back, it would, in most cases, find its way back to the person who first passed it. The country is flooded with counterfeit small bills, and all with which the receiver is not thoroughly familiar, should be clese- ly scrutinized. — Exchange. 0 . Mg.

Ten Thousand Rebels Ountwitted, Colonel Geary Makes a Stand in the Moun- tains—The Rebels Afraid to Follow Him. THoRroFARE GAP, Va., April 6, 1862, via Baltimore, April 6.—A Rebel force of seven regiments of infantry, two regiments of cav alry, and three batteries, were thrown across the Rappahannock to cat off Col. Geary’s command at White Plains. By = forced mrch they reached Salm. within five miles of the Union band, last evening with the intention of attacking Col. Gear'ys command in two columns. cutting off his retreat, and then seizing this formidable Gap to intercept the progress of reconstructing the Manassas Gap Railroad. The attack was to be made at daylight this morning. Their movements were made secretly, with the intention of making a dash and cutting the Union com- mand to pieces. Col. Geary became apprised of their pres: ence and designs, and moved his whole com mand off quietly during the night, and bat- tled with the mountain road-, wading streams and rivers of mud for five miles. and by daylight occupied this (fap. where he pre- pared for a resolute and determined stand in the mountain defiles. The movement was a most important one, frustrating a design to accomplish a victory by the destruction of a much dreaded command, to revive the droop ing feelings of the Rebels in Virginia. The calls were beaten m the evening, and the camp fires left burning as usual, after the command had marched. The chagrin of the frustrated Rebel force cn be better imagined than described, in finding themselves ont-maneeuyred. Al- though in such superior force. th: y had not the temerity to follow and aitempt an en~ trance into the rugged defiles here, Tt is supposed they returned at once to their or- iginal position, south of the Rappahan~ nock. One of the Union scouts was killed, and three of the Rebels were taken prisoners, Rebels Outflanked at Corinth. They are Obliged to Fall Back --Communi- cation with Memphis intercepted. New York, April 5. —The New York World, in an extra. says that private infor mation, derived from a reliable source. has reached here that Beauregard has been out- flanked in the position his Rebel army .oc~ cupied near Corinth, Miss. and was compel- led to fall back ; and also that a heavy bo dy of United States troops had got in be-~ tween the enemy and the city of Memphis’ not far from the Mississippi, thus cutting oft commuuication and’ retreat. ¢ Gilorious news," adds the World, “ may be expected from that quarterin a day or two.” Supposed Attack on Fort Pulaski. 2 New York, April 5. The storeship Supply from Warsaw Sound on the 29th ult., arrived here this afternoon and reports that the United States batteries on the shore were all ready to commence the attack on Fort Pulaski when she left, and from the fact that heavy fiiring was heard in that direction on the 30th, no doubt the work has commenced. Two Thousand Federal Troops Landed at Biloxi. MosiLg, April 4. On Wednesday a Yankee force, 2,000 strong landed at Biloxi from three vessels, and cut the telegraph line between Mobile and New Orleans. o* re eee - Corina, Mississippi.—This place is probably destined to become the theatre of great events. The village of Corinth was formerly called Farmington, and is so men tioned by the gazetteers. [tis a post vil lage of Tishemingo county, distant two hundred and sixty-two miles north-east from Jackson, the capital of the State. There are but three or four stores in the village, and of course its population must be rela tively small. Tishemingo county forms the north-east extremity of Mississippi, border ing on Tennessee and Alabama, and has an area of about fourteen handred square miles. The Tombigbee river rises in the county ; the Tennessee flows along the North-east border, and is drained by the Tuscumbia creek. The surface is diversified by small valleys, and generally has a substratum of sand. A large part of the county is cover- ed with forests of oak, hickory, walnut and pine. The head streams of the Tombigbee furnish valuable motive power. “The route | of the Mobile and Ohio railroad intersects the Memphis and Charleston railroad at Ja. | cinto, the capital. The county was organ- | lized in 1836. The population in 1850 | | amounted to 15,940, of which 13,529 were ifree, and 1,961 slaves. | a — neighbor, while the!cssscrupulous and some | moved his school room to the recruiting of | BY TELEGR.:H.
