EbenFburg, the criunty seat of Cambria county, a thriving borough con taining some 2.000 souls, is, or should be, entitled to the same mail facilities as other ther towns of like importance. Yet, under the management, or wn's-management of the "powers that be" our rights have not uu frequently been disregarded. There is a point on the Pa. R. Tl. known as Cresson, and at this point there is a post- (lice, and Mr. Brown, an agent of the Pa. It. It., is post-master. The Ebcnsburg Branch is sometimes snow ed up. That was the ca?e during the pres ent December storms. Still there was a con tract for delivering the mails at Ebensbwg. ami that contract should have been complied with, as Ebcnsburg is the point at which the mails for thirty miles north-east, north and north-west, are made up. On Tuesday the Sth of December, the Ebcnsburg Branch was blockaded by enow, and continued so for ten days. 2"o mails appeared from the point of departuie (Cres son) on the P. P. K..and Northern Cambria, so far as ordinary mail facilities were con cerned, was frozen in. Our energetic post master. Pees J Lloyd. Esq., appreciating the position, procured a party to carry the mail through. That party breasted the lljitll lllIUUII. lll'll . 7 Welled the mi.

This cours-e of action was a"l the mere strange as the .vtrne difficulties had occurred fur several years previous, anl ha.l always been relieve.! only through the enterpi ir-e at the Ebeusburg end of the route. Then, probably.nospeci.il iutercst prevaileJ. Xotc it s"ems that the point is everything the jif'j'Ie nothing.

THE IiJSTITCTH. I am afraid I am crowding on 3 0unibow, as the Institute will require a large local notice. I hope the Institute well, and trust it will constitute an era in education. Let no destitute teacher neglect to go cr, at least, send a substitute ; and when there let unn not prostitute his talents in idle discus sions. Ttie State should restitute the loss the teacher's sustain, by attending, if intend ing to do right, but not for contending. The subttnding of angles and the extending of lines may do, but the dtstendiig ol nobtrils jp mak'.njj hideous speeches is wroDg and Useless, while pretmiding to be somebody when one is nobody, is portending of disas trous results, both to the individual and to the Institute. MacShane, Jb. JcHSbTOWN, Dec. 21, 1863. Death of Mrs. Johs G. Milfs. Tha subjoined obituary notice we take from the Presbyterian. We were acquainted with the deceased lady, and, like all who enjoyed that pleasure, we admired her sprightly intelli gence and her Christian vir'ues. Mrs. Miles resided in Cambria county at an caily day, and married her now afflicted husband while re.-iding in the Glen Gmnell house, in 1S24 Her sorrowing partner has our Mticero sym pathy. Died, at Huntingdon, Pa., on the 2d inst.int, Mrs. Jtlia M. Mili-s, wile of John (.

Her mother, Ruth Hall, resided at rhiladel phia during the Revo Itition, where she an j );er sister, afterwards wife of Aicxiinder Fullerton, (the first,) so distin guished tliemselvcs in their exertions to relieve our suffering soldiers, that they received the! tli:l,t,kd of .the Couti,,enUl Oougre.

Our observations as to the merits of this lntiers warrants u in recommending it to all. It will strengthen and invigorate the en tile system, giving toee and healthy action to all its part?, liut more epeei illy would we re commend it to all persons nftlictetl with Dyspep sia, most cases of which we believe it wi 1 speed ily cure, if the directions accompanying the bot tle be complied with.

Use MISIILER'S HERB BIT TERS, the most potent remedy ever discovered for Colds and Coughs, and a certain protectiou against the danger of taking them, il it is used two or three times a d iv as a tonic. CONSTITUTIONAL DIFFERENCES There are mauv constitutions so inherently de fective in energy as to derive great benefit from a moderate use of pure liquor combined with such vegetable medicines and extracts as enter into the composition of Roback's Stomach Bit ters, and there are many situations in which even the healthiest derive additional security from their occasioual use. If healthy persons are exposed to unusual and continued exertion in c jn fined air, or under the heat of the sun, or to the influence ot de pressing watchluliness of traveling, ond change of diet and water, or if rc3ideuts ot malarious districts or the rank river bottoms of the Wtst and South, there can be no doubt but a careful use of Roback's Stomach Bittfrs widi the food would surely be the means of warding off actual disease and enabling thein to bear unaffected, where, without the Bitters, hey would likely have to succumb to disease. They strengthen, tone and invigorate, aid digestion and increase the appetite. OUR. jftTlV FAMIliY SEWING MACHINE!!
