FOUND. —The Copperhead flag which the Union men were accused with stealing last Fall, was found yesterday, under a sofa in the Parlor of the Bedford Hotel. It is needless to say who secreted it. have been requested to say that Mr. Howard's Dramatic and Musical Compa ny will exhibit at the Court House to-night. Mr. Howard is the lessee of the Cumberland Theatre where his Company has held forth for the last eight, months. Jjtfcfy-We had the pleasure of taking our young friend Capt. Josiah Hyssong, of Co. H, 55th Reg. P. V., by the band a few days since. He was severely w >unded some time ago but is rapidly recovering. We are confi dent he makes a good officer. fiSaT* Persons handing in advertisements will be charged with them, unless otnerwise directed. Professional gentlemen handing in Auditor's Notices wilW>e charged with them, and in no instance will we depart from this rule. When they collect their own fees they must also collect printers' fees, or do as we have done, time and again, loose them. #gy*An order has been issued by the War Department, placing the 186 th and 187 th Regiments of Pennsylvania Volunteers at this and other points along the border. One company of the 187 th has already arrived here and encamped above town in Mr. Sam uel Defibaugh's grove. This precaution is taken to prevent evil disposed persons from making sudden inroads across the border in to this and other counties of this State and Maryland. fifaT'We stated last week that Mrs. Imler who was arrested and incarcerated for the murder of her child is a soldier's widow. We were misinformed, and therefore take so much of our statement back. She was brought up on a writ of Habeas Corpus before His Hon or, Judge King, on last Tuesday, and we un derstand, remanded for further hearing. We have no opinion to express in regard to her guilt or innocence. '•THAT WHICH IS BRED IN THE BONE WILL APPEAR THROUGH THE FLESH." —We are in formed that a "secesh" woman in St. Claira vifle, Bedford county, displayed her breeding by tying crape upon her dog, when the news was received of the assassination of our la mented President. This female has certainly, through ignorance and political malice, ex ceeded all the Northern traitors who have so disgraced themselves by exhibiting their dis respect for the Nation's great martyr. The above we clip from the Hollidaysl/urg Register. We have made strict inquiry to as certain the truth of the averment, and it is with shame that we are compelled to admi its correctness. It is said that the dog even t-purns his mistress. But this i 9 only another instance of the barbarism of the Copperhead party in this county. By their works shall ye know them. THE CAPTURE ANO DISPOSAL OF JEFF— HE OF THE PETTICOAT. —A worthy friend hands nsthe following <diich we think highly practical. The idea if carried out, would be an immense source of revenue. All his Cop perhead friends in the country would feel in duty bound to pay their respects to the great fallen. And he having iniated the new order of the petticoat, it would be an additional at traction to seethe man who said after "all this destruction of life and property we will be compelled to acknowlede the Southern Confederacy," in company with his followers, robed in these "Garments of a mystical sublimity, No matter whether rnSset, silk, or dimity," wending their way with visages long and seedy to pay their respects to the mau who they have always claimed was a prodegy of chival ry and magnanimity. Oh ! wouldn't we en joy it. Editors generally get free tickets, but rather than any body's feelings should be hurt, we will pay the dollar and think it a good investment. But read our friends sug gestions: . MESSRS. EDITORS: I see by the papers that Jeff. Davis is captured. I infer that it is true as it is official, and don't doubt but that it will be confirmed by the Bedford Gazette of week after next. Without waiting for the above paper, we will concede that the chival ric "President" has been arrested and will be found guilty of treason, if not, of being accessary to the assassination of our late worthy President. If found guilty, the sen tence of the Court, and the sanction of the civilized world will be that he shall hang by the neck until dead." But is a man who has made so much mis chief to be let off so easy V A man who has starved thousands of our patriotic people, who has sacrificed thousands of human lives npon the battle field, and who has done our couu try incalculable mischief, only that he might gratify a treasonable ambition, deserves not to have his own private feelings consulted with regard to the manner of his "taking off' nor with regard to the use to which his body may l>e put before he. is called upon to doff his petticoat. I suggest that when he is a "tried and convicted traitor," and prior to the day appointed for his execution, that he be conveyed from one point to another over our great country and exhibited, just as cap tured, an admittance fee of —say one dollar — to be charged as reveifue to the government, to go toward paying off the great debt now hanging over, and brought upon it by this fiend upon earth and his followers. I would also suggest that the exhibition be accompan ied by a side show, charging an additional fee for revenue, in which the rope with which he is to be hung can be seen. The rope to be of cotton in order that the world may have an optical demonstration of Jeff's well known idea that Cotton is King. Knowing that your paper has an extensive circulation. I give these suggestions in order that they may reach the projier authorities, if yon consider them worthy a place in your columns. EPLOGV ON THE DEATH OF PRESIDENT LlX coi.*.—'The following eulogy on the life and public services of Abraham Lincoln delivered by Col. Stover, of the 184 th Regiment, Pa. Vols., was reported by Adjt. Wm. H. H. Ralston, of South Wpodberry township, this county. There is a company of Bedford county boys in this Regiment. We commend the eulogy to the perusal of our many readers : Eulogy on the death of Abraham lAneoln, Late President of the United States, de livered to the With Pa. Vols., April the 19th, the day of his funeral, by Col. John H. Stover .- This day is our land stricken with sadness, and the people who so lately rejoiced over the triumph of our arms are mourning like chil dren mourning the death of their parent. Houses lately illuminated now wear the black shroud of mourning. Strong men weep, and all bow in humiliation and sorrow. Gloom, Use the thick mists of the morning, hangs over the whole country ; for "Know ye not there is a prince and a great man fallen this day in Israel ?" All that is earthly, all that is mortal of Abraham Lincoln, late our be loved President, will this day be consigned to the tomb. Struck by the assassin's'hand op Friday the 14th inst., he lingered until Satur day when his soul took its flight to the God that gave it. It is just and meet that on this day of our national calamity the plough should stand idle in the furrow—the anvil should not resound to the busy stroke of industry— aud the musket should remain untouched on the stack —while all pause to think of him that has fallen, and drop a tear of tribute to his memory. Death in a household is a severe affliction. The great enemy of time always sails over seas of tears, and his path is strewn with sorrows, troubles and broken hearts. But what are individual afflictions compared with National calamities ? It is true a wife is widowed, and children are made orphans, but the soldier has lost his best friend, the peo ple have lost their chief ruler, and the coun try its main hope. The life as well as the death of Abraham Lincoln is a fruitful theme for thought. Born of humble and obscure parents, with scarcely more than the rudiments of an education, his approach to manhood found him in the humble though hon est capacity of manual labor. Tempest-tos sed on the sea of time, he nobly battled against the elements, until fortune relaxed her iron grasp, and he arose in position and esteem. If he had not the advantages of classical care, he was well versed in the great book of human nature, and what was lost in the theoretical was fully supplied in the prac tical. In his early years little did he dream what a mighty influence he was destined to bear on the history of his country. How strange are fate's decrees. The youth whose chief ambition was to address a jury of his neighbors, in later years spoke to the nations of the earth, and one of his last acts was a proclamation that will startle old Europe. As a citizen he was honest, charitable and right. But how shall we rank him as a states man ? His simplicity was almost childlike, amiable and conciliatory in deportment, his firmness was that of everlasting hills; courting no favors, honor sought him ; not ambitious in power, he shrunk from no responsibility. One of the people, he was identified with their interests. They placed him in position, and they retained hira there. As a legislator, he foreshadowed eveuts which in his own days almost amounted to prophecy. As a ruler, leniency was coupled with firmness, justice was tempered with forgiveness ; but the in terests of bis country were always uppermost in his heart. How many of us who differed with hiin four years ago, now uphold the doctrines which he then advocated ? If he had honest enemies it was because his ideas were years in advance of his age. Those loved him most who knew him berst. As President the peo ple testified their approbation of his course bv his triumphant re-election. So enshrined had he become in their hearts, that if a na tions tears were pearls, this day a monument of jewels would rise over his grave to the very heavens. Assuming the reins of Gov ernment when strong men's lips quivered, cheeks were blanched, and men looked into each other's eyes only to read distrust, he gave form to chaos, and brought order out of confusiou. His practical common sense grasp ed shattered truths, and like the lightning flash they assumed shape. Believing that all men should be free, he made them Jree ! and the day is not far distant when emancipation shall be considered the crowning |ict of Amer ican legislation. We waged war to construct, not to subjugate. The repentant rebels al ways found pardon at his hands. He inau gurated anew system in American politics, as a ruler his type was essentially his own; careful study and anxious thought marked his every public act. Convinced that startling changes must be made, he did not spring them sud denly upon the people, but as if by a silken cord he led the public masses to think his own thoughts. Nor did he claim infallibility in anything. His language when submitting a certain great act was, "This is my plan, I do not know that it is best, and shall certainly change it when a better one is submitted.'' But who of us, who of all the land, can im prove his public policy ? Peaceful relations were sustained with foreign powers, when they but wished for an opportunity to declare war. An exhausted treasury was replenished and while a most desperate war was waged in suppression of a rebellion, agriculture was sustained, industry was stimulated, and the re sources of our country were more fully devel oped. Manufactories flourished and the sails of our commerce yet whiten every sea. Though unskillful Generals lost battles, the public did not lose confidence. The ship of State was safely steered through all her per ils. The old broad penant of universal eman cipation yet proudly unfurled to the breeze at the mainmast, while just as she entered port her captain was struck by au assassin, and those starry emblems are this day at halt mast. Killed by traitor's plot they destroyed the hand that was inditing their pardon. Treason so diabolical has its fitting conclusion in assination. The minions of the rebellion, North and South, have erased and forgotten the name of Washington, and substituted that of Gntaline and Charlotte Corday. In Vice President Johnson they have a sterner man to deal with; he will audit a fearful account of which the last item shall not be the least. The American people will now exclaim with the Psalmist, "0 Daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed, happy shall he be that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones." Weep, then, this day, widows and orphans, for he comforted the husbandless and ministered to the fatherless ! Weep, men of the North and South, for he was your true friend! Weep, statesmen, for the pillar of the land has fallen 1 Weep, soldiers, for he loved you as David did Jonathan 1 Sons and daughters of bondage, let your lamenta tions be loud, for the cold dews of death rests on the form, and motionless is the arm that broke youi shackels ! He lived just long enough to see his efforts crowned with success—he died the death of a christian —and his end was peace. Well might he say, "1 have fought the good fight —I have finished my course—l have kept the faith—henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord the righteous judge shall give me that day ; and not to me only but unto all them that love his appearing/' DEATH OF GEN. A. P. HILL. —The following letter in regard to the death of Gen. A. P. Hill, from onr mutual friend, Lieut. C. P. Calhoun, will be read with pride by many of our patriotic citizens. Bedford county truly has turned out as brave and daring soldiers as ever carried a musket or drew a sabre : DANVILLE, Va., May 5, 1865. EDITORS INQUIRER: —The following taken from the Norristotcn Herald and Free Press, of April 27th, I hope you will publish, that your readers may know that Bedford county can boast as brave patriots as ever fired a gun in defence of their country. "Just after the assault upon the rebel works, April 2d, some of our men penetrated the country as far as the Southside Railroad, and two men of Co. "F," named Corp. John W. Mauk and private Daniel Wolford were among the number. They tore up two rails of the track, and when returning to the command, they encountered two rebel mounted officers, who at once demanded their surrender. It was, however, refused, aud Corp. Mauk shot one of them dead. Private Wolford shot at the other, but he escaped apparently unhurt. The men returned to their regiment and re ported their adventure. It appears that in formation gained from rebel prisoners gives the circumstances of Gen. A. P. Hill's death as similar to that of the officer shot by Corp. Mauk, and it is officially believed by our Bri gade, Division and Corps commanders that the noted rebel officer above named met his well deserved death at the hands of a soldier of the 138 th. The names of these men have been forwar ded in the commanding officer's report, and they are recommended for a suitable reward for their meritorious services." Since the above was written additional evi dence has established without doubt the cor rectness of the statement . It however appears that it was only an Orderly that accompanied A. P. Hill and he was severely though not mortally wounded. Corp. Mauk is from Cumberland Valley and private Daniel Wol ford from Londonderry township. May a grateful country reward them, as well as all their brave comrades who participated in the crowning successes of the war, and the final overthrow of the rebellion. Yours, C. P. CALHOUN, Ist Lieutenant Co. "F." BSL>The new Fee Bill. Justices and Con stables can't do without it. FECS increased a hundred per cent.

Jesus said, "Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the king dom of Heaven." April 20th, at Chesapeake Hospital. Fortress Monroe, Va., Sergeant DANIEL A. HESS, of Co. H, 55th Rig't I'. V., aged 27 years, 9 months and 7 days. Sergeant lless entered the army in August, 1861, was with his regiment in South f arolina about two years and a half. In Feb., 1864, he re-enlist ed, and having been granted a short furlough, visited his friends. Notwithstanding the strongest attachments, which render life pleasant, he would not forsake his country in her hour of need; and, bidding his loved ones adieu, he hastened again to the scenes of danger and death. He was ever at his post; when duty called he was always ready. Ho was wounded severely at the battle of Cold Harbor, June 3d, 1564-, but returned to the regi ment as soon a3 his wounds would permit. He received his death-wound at the battle of High Bridge, near Ilurkeville, Va., April 7th, by a uiinie ball, which, passed through his left arm, entered the side and lodged in the lungs. Ha was taken to the Chesapeake Hospital on the 15th ult., where every attention was paid to his wants, both spir itual and temporal, that earthly aid could render. Though he fell, by a traitor's hand, on the very eve of promotion, and when his prospects, for the speedy consummation of his fondest hopes, were the brightest, yet his friends have the assurance, from those who attended hiin, that: "he has been infinitely advanced from earthly ranks." His remains were embalmed,brought home, and deposited beneath the very sod over which he so often trod, in early years. And though no sculp tured"urn nor costly monument marks "the spot, yet his memory icill ever be fresh in the hearts of thoso who knew him best. M. In Buffalo, N. Y., on the lath iust., Capt. JOHN BOWLES, formerly of this place,—in the 34th year of his age. Burftoo, N. Y., May 15, 1865. At a meeting of the associates in business, of the late Capt. John C. Bowles, at the Wes tern Union Telegraph Office, in this city, J. It. Drake, Esq., was called to the chair, and Mr. James H. Barker was appointed Secre tary. After a few appropriate remarks by Mr. Drake, a committee of three was appointed to draft resolutions expressive of the feeling of the meeting, who on deliberation reported the following resolutions which were unani mously adopted; Whereas , It has pleased the Almighty Ru ler of the Universe to remove from our midst our much esteemed brother operator, John C. Bowles, in the prime of his manhood and strength, and with the prospect of a long and useful life before him, thus giving us another warning of the uncertainty of human life and expectations ; and as we wish to testify our respect and esteem for one whom we have all so well known and highly respected— There fare Resolved, That we sincerely condole with the bereaved parents of our departed friend, and while we sympathize with their loss, we trust that he has gone to that better world "where the wicked cease from troubling and and the weary are at rest," and that they may have faith to look up to our Heavenly Father and say "The Lord gave and the Lord hath r taken away; Blessed be bis Holy name." , Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be engrossed, signed by the employees in this office and tendered to his afflicted parents ; 1 also that a copy be furnished to the daily pa . pers, also to the Bedford papers for publiea tion. Resolved, That we attend the funeral in t body. I HEADQUARTERS, "D" CO., 1 74th Reg't. N. G. S. N.

Resolved. As individual members we shall i miss his cheerful countenance —his hearty good will for the success of all our undertak ings, and the generous impulses of his nature which attiacted all of his command towards him as a man and a brother in whom we found a generous friend and a confiding officer. Resolved, That the intercourse of the sev eral years with which Capt. Bowles has been identified with this company has endeared him to us by many recollections. Now he is called to swell the ranks of his noble com rades for which he has mourned with us, we drop the silent tear to his memory, and sub mit to the ruling of that kind Providence who afflicts but for our good. Resolved, To the friends vho are called to mourn the loss of an only soi, we feel how in adequate are the use of wo'ds to express a litt'e of the sympathy we would offer them in their affliction. By our oss we measure theirs and can only point them to the true source of consolation in the presence of him who has said '-those whom he loveth he chaa teneth.'"

Gentlemen.—Having stated it verbally to yon, I have no hesitation, in writing the fact, that I ex perienced marked benefit from your Hoofland'i German Bitters. During a long and tedious session of Congress, pressing and onerous duties nearly prostrated me. A kind friend suggested the nse of the preparation I have named. I took his ad vice, and the result was improvement of health, renewed energy, and that particular relief I so much needed and obtained. Others may be sim ilarly advantaged if they desire to be. Truly your friend, THOMAS B. FLORENCE. From John B. Wiokersham, Esq., firm of Wick ersham A Hutchison, the celebrated Manufac turers of Fancy-Iron Works, 259 Canal St I am the recipient from you of one of the great est favors that can be conferred upon man, vis: that of health. For many years have I suffered from one of the most annoying and debilitating complaints that the human family can be afflicted with, Chronic Diarrhea. During the long time I was suffering from this disease, I was attended by regular physicians, giv ing me but temporary relief. The cause seemed to remain until I was induced to try Hoofland's Ger man Bitters. After the use of a few bottles of that valuable medicine, the complaint appeared to be completely eradicated. I often inwardly thank you for such a valuable specific and, whenever I have an opportunity, cheerfully recommend it, with full confidence in its reliability. Truly yours, JOHN B. WICKERSHAM. New York, Feb. 2, 1884. From Julius Lee, Esq., firm of Lee A Walker, the mostextensive Music Publishers in the United States, No. 722 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia. February Bth, 1804. Messrs. Jones A Evans—Gentleman: —My mother-in-law has been so greatiy benefitted by your Hoofland's 34rman Bitters that I concluded to try it myself. I find it to be an invaluable tonic, and unhesitatingly recommend i to all who are suffering from dyspepsia. I have had that disease in its most obstinate form—flatulence—for many " years, and your Bitters has given me ease when everything else had failed. Yours truly, JULIUS LEE. From the Hon. JACOB BROOM, Philadelphia, Oct. 7th, 1803. Gentlemen: In reply to your inquiry at to the effect produced by the use of Hoofland's German Bitters, in my family, I have no hesitation in say. ing that it has Men highly beneficial. In one in stance, a case of dyspepsiaof thirteen years'stand ing, and which had become very distressing, the use of one bottle gave decided relief, the second effecting a cure, and the third, it teems, has con firmed the cure, for there has been no symptoms of its return for the last six years. In my individ ual use of it 1 find it to be an unequalled tonic, and sincerely recommend its use to the sufferers. Truly yours, JACOB BKOOM, 1707 Spruce St. Rev. W. D. Seigfried, Pastor of 12th Baptist Church Philadelphia, December 26th, 1863. Messrs. Jones A Evans—Gentlemen:—l have recently been laboring under the distressing effects of indigestion, accompanied by a prostration of the nervus system. Numerous removes were recommended by friends, and some of them tested, but without relief. Your Hoofland's German Bit ters were recommended by persons who had tried them, and whose favorable mention of the Bit ters induced me also to try them. I must confess that I had an aversion to Patent Medicines, from the "thousand and one" quack "Bitters" whose only aim seems to be to palm off sweetened and drugged liquor upon the community, in a sly way; and the tendenoy of which, I fear, is to make many a confirmed drunkard. Upon learn ing that yours was really a medicine preparation, I took it with happy effect. Its action was not upon only the stomach, but upon the nervous sys tem, was prompt and gratifying. I feel that I have derivedj;reat and permanent benefit from the use of a few bottles. Very respectfully yous, W. D. SEIGFRIED, No. 264 Shackamaxon St, From the Rev. Thos. Winter, D D., Pastor of Rorough Baptist Church Dr. Jackson: —Dear Sirl feel it due to your excellent preparation, lioofland German Bitters, to add my testimony to the deserved reputation it has obtained. I have for years, at times, been troubled with great disorder in my head and ner vous system. I was advised by a friend to try a bottle of your German Bitters, I did so, and have exprieneed great and unexpected relief]; my health has been every materially benefited. I confidently recommend the article where I meet with cases similar to my own, and have been assured by many of their good effects. Respectfully yours, T. WISTKB, Roxborough, Pa. From Rev. J. 8. llrrman, of the German Reformed Church, Kutxtown, Berks County, Pa. Dr. C. Jackson; —Respected Sir : —I have been troubled with Dyspepsia nearly twenty years, and have never used any medicine that did meas much, good as Hoofland's Bitters. I am very much improved in health, after having taken e bottles. Yours with respect, J. 8. Haniux. BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS. See that the signature of M C. M.
