Ohio spoke on Tuesday. In auother

the result. Ohio says she will not sus

New York and Pennsylvania render

The republican candidates for Aud.
General and State Treasurer, Passmore
aud Hart, were on the Centre co. fair
ground on Friday, glad to shake hands
with any body. A second balloon might
very speedily have been inflated by the

The labor party in Philadelphia have
nominated Benjamin Harris Brewster
ns their cand ; date for district attorney.
Mr. Brewster will be remembered as a
distinguished member of the Philadel
phia bar, and a great light in the repub
lican party. His nomination is as an
anti-Cameron man, and will give the
regular republican nominee no little
trocbie to keep votes enough to elect
him.
Kx-congressman Gen.Negiey has been
indicted for defrauding the government.
Thus another republican light has flick
ered. A fraudulent timber claim of
120,000 is Negley's sin.
Patterson and half a dozen other car

Thursday while all seemel .-polled by the
rain. During the night ckar
weather set in, and Frida) morning was
bright though cool, and soon streams of
vehicles went pouring through Betlofunte
and to the fair, and at noon the ground
was literally JiiieJ with men, women aud
children, horses and wagons—the largest
turnout ever witnessed at any of our fair
—the receipts at the office were ?K*A> for

Prof, l'hillippi made his balloon ascen
sion at 4 o'clock, seated on a trapeze, on
which be cut bis twisting performances as
he sped through the aie. The air ship was
carried direcl'-y over Centre 11 nil, where
Pbillippi endeavored to land, bua the
strong current of wind carried him two
miles beyond, and he landed in a fold on
BrockerhotTs farm (occupied by Geo
Good heart on the pike leading to Milroy.
The balloon was spied by the people of
our town as soon as it appeared above the
mountain and all that were not absent
had a line opportunity to watch it in Us
course until it cainc near the earth and
was hidden by the woods. A number fol
lowed and soon reached the place where it
landeJ. Mr. Goodbart and Mr. Strohm
and others living near where it cauie down
found Pbillippi on the ground, somewhat
stunned from landing too suddenly and
perfectly numb with cold. The balloonist
when he ascended had on the usual show
man's tights, and it being rather cool on
terra druia it was much more so in the
cloud regions, and he soon became so
numb that he was unable to put on his oth
er clothing he had with him, and the ef
fects of the cold rendered him unable to
properly manage his balloon ; it was for
tunate his landing took place as toon as it
did, as he would undoubtedly have per
ished had he continued much longer and
landed where timely assistance could not
have reached him. The Professor was at
once brought to Centre Hall with bis bal
loon, and after getting himself thawed u;
and taking refreshments started on foot to
Bellefonle, leaving his balloon, which *a<
,badly torn in landing by swinging against
fences, in Spangler's shed.
Two of the republican candidate. Pass
more for Aud. General, and liart, fur
State Treasurer, were on the fair ground.
Friday, shaking bands with any one that
was presented.
The Centre Hall band was engaged to
play duing the entire fair; the music il
furnished was excellent and elicited praise
from all.
On Friday the Zion and DoiUbur;
bands also vitited the grounds arid treated
to fine music.
Our County Fair is among the things
that are past and gone, and it becomes our
task,of the peoples mouth-piece, to speak
er the things wc saw there, giving prais*
where deserved and censure where we
think it merited. It was without doubt
the finest agricultural Fair ever held in
the county and we heard it remarked by a
gentleman who had attended several thi
fall, both in this state and the stale of New
Jersey, that it far exceeded thorn alb
Among the many beautiful exhibits, wo
noticed nono that gave evider.ro of greater
taste in its design than the exhibit of our
druggist friend, F. P. Green. It was loca
ted at tho entrance of the mam building,
in form a pavillion, wreathed with sprui e
intermingled with thorn berries and au
tumn leaves; on one side a glass show case
filled with the productions of bis skill in
-tbe shape of pomades for tho hair, choice
tooth powders, colognes and toilet waters;
in the rear an uprigbtshow case filled with
his well known family Medicines, on the
side a show case filled with various
surgical appliances—while upon all sides,
suspended from biackets, hung gold fish
in globes and canaries in cages, making it
one of the most attractive places in the
building, especially to the ladies—it added
much to the beauty of the Fair and will
no doubt pay .him well at an advertisement
by bringing the various preparations of
his manufacture prominently before the
thousands who visited the place—we will
speak more at .length on this subject es
pecially of the extensive and beautiful ex- j
bibit of the Patrons of Husbandry.
The exhibit, at our county fair, Inst
week, of loo's, shoes, gaiters, Ac, by
Johnny Powers, in the main building,
was one of the gtoat points of attraction.
There was artistic skill in the arrange
ment for beaut)', and at the same time so
that bis goods would show to advantage,
and proved that Mr. Power's judgment for
arranging thing* is equal to his rare facul
ty for selecting boots and shoes, tt quality
so necessary for a man in that line of busi
ness, yet in which many are wanting. It
actually required two policemen at Mr.
Powers quarters to keep the crowd in
check that was so eager to tee hi* goods.
Many failed on account of the pressure
but tbey consoled themselves with the idea
that tbey could go and see at his store in
Bush's block, where is the fine-t selection
of boots and shoes, for fanners, mechanics,
laboring men, women and children, to
be found.

militia or 1562 and 1863.
In the militia called into service fur
the protection of the State in I>"2, at the
time of I.ee's invasion of Maryland, the
county sent the following companies in
to the field; Company D, 12th Regi
ment; Company C, 23d Regiment;
Company F, 23d Regiment; and in the
emergency of 1813, when Pennsylvania
was invaifcd and the battle of 'ietty.--
burg fought, four companies w r fur
nished, as follows: Company A. 46tli
Regiment; Company (', loth Regiment
Company C. Independent Battallion;
Company I), Independent Battallion.To
give a history of the services of these or
ganizations would be to icpeat the events
of the war in almost every locality west
of the Mississippi that wal trod by the
footsteps of a soldier. It would be to tell
ngain the story of Patterson in the She
nandoah Valley; of T. W. Sherman at
Hilton Ilea l and the sea islands; of
{ Burnsideat Roanoake Island ntul New
born ; of McCleliau on the Peninsula,
land again at Crampton's trap, South
Mountain and AntieUm ; of Pope on the
Rapidan, the Rappahaniiock and Bull
Run; of Burntudo in 1862, at Fredericks
burg anil later at Knoxville ; of Ilooker
at Cbancellorßville; of Meade at Gettys
burg, Bristoe and Mine Run ; of those
who went to Vicksburg and faced John
ston on the Big Black and at Jackson :
of Thomas at Nashville, and of that long
bloody and toilsome campaign from the
Rapidan to the James, thence to Peters
burg with its trying days, and finally on
to the surrender at Appomatox. It would
be far too much for the occasion, and I
can therefore only attempt a rapid sketch
of the 148th—the regiment with
which I was in a humble way identifi
ed.
the 14Sth.
Early in tlio month of August, 1862,
and partly with a view to save Centre
county from the operations of the draft
then pending, it was thought that a regi
ment of volunteers might Ikj raised in
addition to the numerous companies al
ready in the field from the county. Un
der the inspiration and influence of
many prominent citizens, public meet
ings were held in various portions of the
county, and earnest appeals were made
to the young men to enlist, especially to
those of some of the townships which up
that time bad not given as many men to
the army as it was thought they might.
By energetic and unceasing efforts, be
fore the end of the month came, seven
companies, numbering over 600 men,
were recruited, and taken to Camp Cur
tin, at Harrisburg. For the time being
it was thought this about exhausted the
material of the county. These seven
companies were composed entirely of
Centre county men, except a sturdy lit
tle band from the wilds of Cameron
co inly, who joined Company Fat Har
risburg. Three other companies—two
from Jefferson and Indiana and one
from Clarion—were united to the seven,
and formed the regiment known as the
I4Bth. The regiment was organized on
the Sth day of September, 1862. The
Centre county companies were A, 15, C,
D, F,Gand II; the Jefferson and Indiana
and Clarion companies, E, I and K. The
regiment marched from Camp Curt in on
the evening of the Bth of September,
and immediately began its career ofscr- i
vice. i

had began his movement north which cul
minated ' Getty,burg. i' J early in June,
' with the-nd Corp*, we started in the uuw
: direction, march t g byway of Stafford,
: Dumfrit at 1 OCCBXJ iin to Centrcville,
j and from Csttrvvills ■ Thoroughfare
j Gap, where we remained a number •>(
! d*ys Hero wo found tome of tho cavalry
of the en- mv ? overing • n our rear flank*.
They were ne>t in sufficient fore-o to do
much damage but c -uld caue annoyance,
delay inovcnunU, occacioually kill or
wound a kirmhber and pick up the ttrag
ler*. Thu* it "happened wrhen we
started from the Gap, we were obliged to
make the march with tome circum.pec
tion, and, in c ming ut, the, head and
flank* ot the column were coveted by a
portion of the 11-th deployed a* akitmUh
er* and flankir*. There wat little or no
delay in the march, though a battery in
pos.lion near llaymaikel for a .h<-rt time
made it slightly unpbn.ant for the rear.
Thence wo moved ly gum Spring* to the
Potomac, which wa* crossed at Edward •
Perry, and wo reached the Monocacy,
near Frederick, in Maryland, on tho '-Sili
day of June. On the '.*.'l:l we tuarcii-d
to Uniontown, and it will long be remem
bered, by thoic who made it as the big
march. Tbe di.lar.ee was thirty-five
tuile* and tho time twelve hour* It was
an exhausting day's work, and many oere
the straggler* left by the wayiidc. NVc
rested on tho UOth, and on tho first day of
July went to Gettysburg by tho way cf
Taneytown. It it a singular fact that
while approaching Gettysburg not a sound
of the 1 mflict then raging be tween the ad*
vancu pillions of tho two armies reached
our ears, and not until about dark when
an ambulance with tho body of the la
mented General Heynuld* passed u, did
we kn->w that there had boon a fight thai
day. During the night of the Ist wc biv
ouacked t<> the right of the Taneytown
road, within two mile* of tho battlefield.!
On the morning of tho 'Jr.d wo advanced
to the front, after an inspection of nrnn
prvparcd to bear our purl in tbe great bat
tle of the war. The action of the Ist bad
not been favorable, though it probably
secured to the army of the Potomac the
strong position held on the 2d and :id
against which Lee hurled hi* forces in!
The 1 IMth went through the actions of hr
2 dnys with much credit, nnd si;(ftred so
verely in killed and wounded. The heav
iest loss occurred in the evening of the 2d,
while the regiment wu engaged in front
of It'iunJ To|>, Capt. Robert M. Forstcr,
of Company C, -wm hilled und Lieut.
John A. Bayard, of Company 11, mortally
wounded. Cupl. Forster wu* an able of
ficer and his death was a great lor*. A* a
disciplinarian lie had no *uperior in the
regiment, and took great pride in itlwny*
having hi* company in good condition for
duty. Lieut, liayard was a fine drill m.is
ler, and the eae and grace with which lie
handled a company on parade wa* often
the subject ol remark.
After tho b.sttlo wo remained on the
field over the 4th, and then moved around
lo the Baltimore turnpike, at Two Tavern*
From there we marched by vrayof Taney
towr. and Middletown back to Frederick,
byway of Crampton's Gap to the Poto
mac, near Williamsporl, where wo w-r<-
again in the presence of Lee's army, the
position of the 14H:li being directly in front
of St. James' College. Leo withdrew
actoss the river und we then marched t>
Ilnrper's Ferry, passing over the old bat
tle field ot Arilictam, and in a very few
day* we were again upon the "acr< d soil"
of Virginia. We marched down Louden
Valley, stopping at Snicker's, A shby's and
Manassas Gap without encountering the
enemy. Then wo reached Wnrrenton,
and from there moved aero** Ilia Grange
and Aletnn Irla railroad to MorrUville, a
short distance from Kelley's F'ord on the
Rappahannock.
The summer campaign now ended, and
wu went into camp to remain a number of
weeks. It was here that the boys bud a
story about the Colonel being lost one
night while on picket duty, At the story

on the Vib. In the action of the 10th the
regiment was roughly handled and met
with n-vere losses In kitted, wounded and
m.B-.jg. thcaggtcgalu being about two
hundred. On the I2tb, in the fatnout and
brilliant charge of the 2nd corp, tho rcg
tnent wat prominent and distinguished.
Tin action trgan at early dawn, continu
ed throughout inml the day, ani co-tut
another largo li.l of killed and wounded.
The Lieutenant Colonel wat among the
wounded, and wa- *J unfortunate at to be
taken prisoner. With that bravery and
impctuooaity J cbarac T r.lic of him, he
win la.t aecn going over the captured
breast w,.rk of the enemy. Waiving hi*
the air and *houling, "Come on
bov. t tbi* i> the la.t day cf the rebel-
! liou !" and it night have been nearly so
had proper preparation! been made to fol
!.>w up the morning'* work of the 2nd
. - pi. Aui<<ng the killed of the Hath, in
t!.<- e i: cr-lions, were CapL Thompson
Core, of company K, Lieut. John A lie-
Guiro, of company 1. and Lieut. James 11.
iiook. of company H. The latter waawell
known in Bellefonte, where he bad many
friends, a- ho also had in the regiment.
Lieutenant McGulre was a brave Irish
tnan. who einbodiid all the inspirations of
tho JroluitJ ro d or. He was uncultivated
and yet an excellent drill master, seeming
to know by instinct, as it were, all that
was in the book and how to use it. It was a
rare and enjoyable sight to see hitn exer
citing a company in the skirmish drill.'
The loss of Capl. Core was a greTious onej
' and came unexpectedly from a wound in
the arm. The wound was severe, though,
not nl the liruo considered dangerous !
Erysipelas supervened and caused bis
death. He was a large man, big hearted!
and good nalured, and by his unfailing
kindness had endeared every one tobim.j
He was also known in the regiment as a
model of devotion to duly, always to be
relied upon, under any circumstances, and
never disappointing any expectations. An
instance of this may bo given. One night
while we were bivouacked on the banks
of the Rappahannock, CapL Core was on
picket duly in charge of a detail from the
regiment. In the morning we crossed the
river and by an oversight the pickets were
not relieved and were thus left behind.
After wo had proceeded a mile or more
the oversight was discovered, and a dis
cussion arose as t<> whethor it was worth
while to send back after them, somo think
ing they might relieve themselves and fol
low of tlieir own accord. The Colonel de
sired to know who was in command, and
was informed that it was Captain Core.
"Tben go back immediately and relieve
him. Core will not leave without orders,
if he slays there till doomsday."
From the linr* around SpotUylvania
another flank movement waa begun on the
night ol the 'Ah.ii oi May, and on the ld
w reached the north bank of North An
na river only to find the enemy in poiilion
! on the opposite side. On the "4th the 2nd
corps cro*od over and took up a poaitiou
for n*i-null. No general attack wa* made
however, and during the night of tho 2t>tb
we withdrew. The movement back com
menced at dark, but the skirmishers were
not withdrawn until day began lodawn on
the morning of the 27th. They woroclose
ly followed and sutne of tho 148 th made a
narrow escapo fromenpturo. Ihc turning
movement was continued to tho letl and
nLor crossing the Paniunky river near
llunovertown, the enemy wa* again en
counter* d in position at Chid Harbor, in
front of the Chickabominy. Thi* wa* on
the ad ot Juno. An assault wu* gallantly
mado, but in tho end it was not successful.
Our diviiion entered the enemy'* works at
one point, but being unsupported could
not hold them, and wu* forced back a *hort
distance. Hero Lieut. Jacob S. Lander,
of company C, wu* killed. Ho wa* a gen
tle, amiable officer and was much lament
ed. The line* remained for ome|days in

for siege operations, but tboy were soon
abandoned. It was then determined to,,

ry. On the night of the 2?lh of October *

suuli upon a furl in the enemy'* line, and
carried it, rapturing part of a Virginia
regiment The prisoners were lent to the
rear, but as the assaulting parly was not
supported the fori could not long be held,
and in tailing hack a considerable number
were killed and wounded. It was a bril
liant feat ot arms, a id added to the repu
tation of the regiment, hut it may be con
fide I'D doubtful whether the gain com
pel rated for the loss Following this, the
regiment did garrison dhty in Fort Famp*
