Eastingdon Ahead. -
Though Huntingdon is far behind
W its neighbors in a few important cases,
'oyettNil-ave - pleased to note wherein it
i.-
snrpesses them. .In reading our (m
-,changes that interest.themselves in re
lation to the draft, and how to avoid
it, we diecoVer that very little interest
but great read is manifested by the
people that they represent. The in.
ducements offered in thisplace to those
• who desire to volunteer not only sur
pass those offered by our neighbors,
!but they are en a par with those prof
fered in the cities. This is a fact that
:our people should bear in mind, and
,should be a preventive to those who
the city, and receive
As-bounty. Another great inducement
•yis that the famLies . of our soldiers are
cared fora during their absence,, while
the city authoritieshave not-the time,
convenience or inclination to attend to
,t4)1 3 jinportant consideration.
The bounty offered is 8-00., and a
favorable opportunity is presented of
receiving thisbounty, by enlisting' in
the • company of Captain William F.
Yohnsten,,of this place. There is no
.time for delay, as the day upon whieb
the draft is 'most - assuredly to. come
pit, is on the 15th of this month,
The Last Chance.
While the day for• 'draft - comes on
apace, wo are surprised that so few of
the yoting men of the county, and es
pecially those liable to draft, avail
themselves of the opportunities offered
to enlist, and thereby effectually save
themselves from the fear of being draf
ter, and of the stilt worse position of
being drafted. It is needless to
cite the difference between a volun
teer's and a conscript's position, at
least with respect to the pecuniary
consideration- Thu lact that a dratted
man receives neither Government or
local bounty in well known to every
one. Wo.cannot see, therefore, why a
man refused all bounty, and remains
iri dread of the daft, while ho could
receive the money. and "save his ba
con".(so far as dread is concerned,) by
volunteering. We appeal to the coin.
mon sense of every individual, and on•
treat each one to consider wherein he
loses and wherein he gains. Captain
Johnston will. continue to receive re
cruits but for a few days longer, and
we advise all who intend to volunteer•
to call on him at the Court House,
without delay.

The Temporahco meeting held in
this place, on 'Thursday evening, last,
lectured by, Revs. McMurray u'id Mc-
Clain, and Onarles Stratford; E+q., was
productive of some good. Alter the
meeting adjourned,several names were
received as members of the Good Tem-
Oars, to be forthwith organized. On
Saturday evening last a deputation ar•
rived from Lewistown under Mr..
Stratford, and the necessary arrange
ments were completed for the organi
zation of the new society of "Good
Te.mplars." There are about twenty
members in the association, comprking
ladies and gentlemen, and there are
fair prospects for a vast increase in
numbers.
We learn that an organization of the,
same nature has been started at Mc-
Alavy's Fort, in this county. About
twenty members have been initiated,
and the society is under full headway.
An Agreeable Surprise
Some month's ago we announced,
upon what we considered the best au•
thority that.Sergt: Alfred W. Kenyan;
of Barre', Co. C, 13th P. V. Cavalry,
in front of Petersburg, had been kill
ed by the rebels. We never heard
anything to the contrary until last
Tuesday morning, whoa Alf. entered
our office, looking the very praiireOf
a live soldier. Of course we were re
joiced to see him, and to learn from
"documents" in his possession that ho
wan not only alive but had been coin
missioned by-Gov. Curtin as Ist Lieut.
of- his company. There is no better
soStLer in the field than Lieut. Ken.
"Where Shall I Go V,
A 6 the first of April draws near,
the question forces itself upon the ma
ny non property holders: "Whore

the streets" in search of "To lets
they are no where to be found, sod in
many instances the telizraents they
now occupy have increased in rent to
such an extent that they cannot, afford

to them ono of serious import. All
over the country the same state of

The Broad Top Coal Region.
..Tlio U. S. Rail. and Mining Journal
says: The Broad Top Semi-Bituminous
Coal Region, notwithstanding, the hin
drances consequent from the inability
of the Pennsylvania Railroad to fur
c-ttn-ti-n ensure -4.41-o tl4

the trunk road hetngwholly inadequate
to the movement of the traffic offered
at its many Sources of business supply
—in the year 18(54 increased its prod
tie:: over the preceding year, 80,06G$
tons.
The Broad Top coal region was
opened to the market in 1856, and,
consequently, 1864 was its ninth year
of trade; from 42.000 tons of coal in
1826, it increased its product in 1861
to 386,645.
The Cumbetland, Maryland, coal
region was opened to market in 1812,
and in' its eleventh year, to wit, 1852,
its tonnage was 334,178, being 52,467
taus less than the Broad Top in its
ninth yea'',
This comparison 18 made, not in dis
paragement of the Cumberland region,
which in 1860, the year before the
war, forwarded to market 788,909 tons
of coal; but simply to show that the
growth of the trade of the Broad Top
region has been more rapid than was
the trade of its neighbor iii Maryland.

years of its development is herein giv

created with reference to the redemp
tion of mutilate I postal currency, or
notes so much tort) and defaced as to
render it next to impossilile to-decide'
whether they are genuine orcounter

copied into the' papers, stating that,
postmasters were bound to redeem
mutilated currency; provided no
doubt of its gentiliwness existed,
and provided that net: more than one
tenth of the mutilated note was mis
sing. Such notes ofcerreney undoubt
edly genuine, arid not more than one
tenth of currency notes, or t‘N en

only because such notes are United
States money„Ondouhtedly gen nine.—
Postmasters . have.no. means of using

the mirairneesor expecting an officer
of the Government to become the re•
eeiving, agent of dirty, defiaced or mu
tilated fraetional currency, the genu
ineness of which cannot be detected by
the most expert.
The Government has provided for
the redemption of till mutilated gov
ernmental currency; the rule is that
all such shall be returned to the Treas
ury Department through a government
depository—such as the Custom House,
or a National Brink--in stuns not less

It is, therefore, the duty of the hold

any innocent party to bear the risks
of others. All mutilated notes should
be deposited witll, a government du

constantly plied between this city and
his home on the Juniata. About
twenty years ago, ho went home from
Philadelphia, sold his lot and went to
Illinois. He settled about ten miles
from the Mississppi river, and soon be
came a provident and wealthy far
mer. With him was a young girl
about twenty years old, whom he rais
