The quotp. of Huntingdon county
under the present draft is 459 ; Blair,
451; Cambria, 405 ; Mifflin 289 To
tal quota, or this district, 1,604.
—The streets and sidewalks du
ring balmy days present a
.disagreea
ble appearance, produced by the mel
ting MOW.. Look out for a flood, slush
and mud.
—Our readers and the public gener
ally, would do well to give Mr. S. H.
Shafer, at Jacobs old- stand a call, and
examine the_ stock of goods he keeps
constantly on hand. We are satisfied
that bir. Shafer will try to please all
with good goods at fair prices. Those
who have not already done so should
give him a call and make his acquain
tance by getting good, bargains. *
—We are pleased to see some of
our soldier friends in town, many of
whom aro wearing the "straps" dear
ly earned: but well deserved. The
-"straps" fit well on their shoulders,
aid the youthful officers have our best
wishes in securing their further pro
motion. Among those we noticed
were Lieuts.• Hugh Johnson and Rob
ert Davison.
—The Commissioner 01 Internal
Revenue is taking the necessary steps
to collect the tax of two dollars a gal
lon on all "spirits." We suppose that
whisky-drinkers will also take neces
sary steps to prepare their purses for
paying the enormous price of 20 cts
for a glass of their solace. We trust
that they will take the wiser step by
joining the "Good Templar" Society
and abstain from touching, tasting or
handling the "vile beverage of hell."
On a Rush.--4"rom the number of
notices of public sales that we are con
tinually receiving and printing, it
would appear that our farmers are
preparing for a rush to the west, or
some other "sea-port," as soon. as
Spring arrives. Those who do leave
will please not forget to advertise their
sales, and those of our subscribers
who design flitting will please notify
us as regards their paper.
The all-absorbing topics of the
day are the draft, substitutes and oil
shares and stocks—but the greatest of
them is the futt—substitutes being
the secondary consideration, and oil
the third; but yet they all turn on
greasy oil,—for, say some, "would
that we should make a lucrative oil
strike, therewith obtain the money to
biro a ‘substitute','and thereby evade
the drift." Oil will, eventually,
smooth all hard problems into run-
Ding order.
The Hew. Postage Systenz.—The in
difference and carelessness of somebody
connected with the postal affairs un
der the new system of management,
is becoming sadly apparent, and we
apprehend that there will be a general
outcry against it. In several instan
ces already we have experienced cha
grin from the fact that when we send
parcels by mail; r and'a're sure they left
-A
this postce, those parcels never
reaph, or until several days elapse, their
destination. The blame may rest up-.
on the route agent; but surely some
body should be responsible.. We ex
pect to hear of more cases of such
carelessness.
—The following is a statement con
cerning Shirleysburg and the war,
which we glean from the Herald
Number of men killed in battle and
died in hospitals, 3 ; deserters, 3 , per
manently removed from the district
3; in service in the' field, 42, remain
ing on the enrolment list, 10,—total
61. The whole number of men enlis

commutation has been 75. $3,600
were contributed by individual con
tribution and taxation, for substitutes
.and local bounties to volunteers. The
population of the village, according
to the census of 1860, was 361 of all

Shirleysburg is not loyal?

county, was fully organized at Camp
Curtin on Thursday last. The com
missioned officers are all from this
place, and aro as follows :—Captain,
Wm. F. Johnston; Ist Lieut., Thomas
Johnson ; Sd Lieut., Alfred Tyhurst.—
The company was recruited to above
the maximum number, there being
about 120 men in the ranks. • They
honored Judge Taylor by wishing to
be known as the "Taylor Guards.'
The boys left Harrisburg yesterday
(Monday) afternoon at two o'clock for

themselves :is the 195th, Col. Fisher

have not yet received; but it will be
forwarded as soon as they reach their
Regimenfr. We hope the brave boys
will not suffer through disappointment.
Bishop Matthew Simpson
This Reverend gentleman, according
to announcement, spoke in the M. E.
Church of this place, on Friday evening
last. The audience that greeted hiMwe.s
large, and all who listened to • his re
marks were edified and delighted. In
deed, it would be difficult to find a
speaker who talks so practically as
does Rev. Simpson.. His ideas are well
defined, and the numerous illustrations
of every day observation with which
he intersperses his language shod rays
of attractive interest upon every stage
of his discourse. Dispensing, to a great
extent, with the more studied display
of rhetorical flourishes he.gives force
to his expression by the weight of pa—
thos and interest that he exhibits. All
his hearers, we know, were loth to
have his sermon close, and many man
ifest the desire that he should speak
here again at the first opportunity.
An Interesting Spectacle
We were seldom more pleased than
on the evening of Bishop Simpson's
lecture last week. To some the idea
of raising $l,OOO in a single evening
for the most important cause would
seem altogether impossible; but it is a
well known truth that 'we know not
what to believe until we see it demon
strated. After the Reverend Bishop
bad finished his sermon he addressed
himself to the audience upon the sub
ject of the Church's indebtedness and
the most practicable mode of liquida
ting the debt. Ho suggested that
small sums in commencing to reach a
large sum should be dispeused...wah,,
and immediately acted upon his sug
gestion by asking how many there
were present who would be willing to
contribute $5O each. After a lapse of
a few seconds Mr. David Black re
sponded,followed by lir. James L. Gla
zier and Rev. Wesley Black. Not—
withstanding the frequent appeals of
the Bishop for a few more "50's" no
more were forthcoming, and be passed
on to a smaller sum, gratified,however,
that three out of the five that. he de—
sired so nobly responded. The next
sum required was $25, when the Rev—
erend gentleman was greeted with_
about fifteen individual's -names, all of
which ho eagerly noted, at each name,
given kindly thanking the donor for
his or her liberality. Dwelling upon
the"2s's" for a few moments, the Bish
op took up the sums of -$lO and $5,
each of which were filled with the same
success, although, as a consequence,
(these sums approaching nearer the
capacity of some mon's purses) there
wore more individuals to subscribe,
but it was not until the sum of $5O
had dwindled down to $1 that the
greatest interest was evinced upon the
floor of the room.. In every quarter
ccaeli $1" was hearcl,and the calls wore
at times so repeated that it kept the
Bishop, who was recording the sums
subscribed, busily employed with pen.
cil and in calculation, telfers were mov
ing front point to point and front au
ditor to auditor soliciting some sum,
each anxious to receive most (and, per
haps, to scream the oftenest;) and the
entire audience eagerly listening to
hear whom' the last dollar would roll
up to make the thousand. The Bishop
found the calls of "cash $1" too numer
ous to thank the respective donors,
but whore the interval permitted, it
Was generally occupied by congratula
tory remarks from his lips. At the
close of about an hour the Reverend
announced that over $lOOO had been
contributed; a sum which, we conjec
tore, would nut have been raised in the
usual way in the course of a year.
The church's debt was between $7OO
and sBoo—a *debt that accumulated
during and since the. building of the
edifice. This, of course, has now been
removed, while tho remaining Sum is.

nishing the Church. Since the mein—
bars have thus thrown off this weight
of embarrassment they will move much
more smoothly and increase in num
bers more rapidly than heretofore.
Rev. Simpson receives the Church's con
gratulations for condescending to help
lit out of its difficulty.

Attempt to lob a Rank
The Hollidaysburg Register of last
week gives the following accountof an
attempt to rob the First Nationn I Bank_
at that la - at Friday night
an attempt was made to rob the first
National Bank of this place. The
watchman of the Bank, Mr. George
I.l.c.Donough, having died very sud,
denly a day or two before, the villains
no doubt considered the time propi—
tious and probably hoped they would
not be disturbed in their labors by the
presence of any one in the building.—
They seem to have been two in num—
ber, and succeeded in . gaining the roar
of tbe Bank building through a nar
row alley which separates it from the
adjoining house. They commenced
operations as nearly as can be aseer
mined between eleven and twelve
o'clock at night by digging a hole
through the wall about three feet
from the•ground into the back room.
In about half an hour or an hour they
had the hole through and commenced
enlarging it to sufficient size, - when Mr.
K. Baldrigo, clerk, who was sleeping
in the Bank, heard them and gave the
alarm. .They then beat a preeipitate
retreat leaving a number of tools con
sisting of brace and bits, drill &c., al
so two old bags and a cover lid. The
robbery was well planned, and the
scoundrels might •have succeeded in
securing 801110 plunder had their cal
culations not missed in one point; as
to the watchman. Commencing at
that early hour they intended to give
a full night to the job. Had they
succeeded in getting into the back
room, they would then have had to
dig through another brick wall sur•
rounding the vault, then drill through
a lining of double boiler iron securely
rivited, and then before getting to tue
deposits and money of the Bank,
would have to get into a strong iron
safe. Without getting into this last,
however they might have secured
some valuables in the vault placed
there by persons for safe keeping.
This last allowing them all possible
skill was about all they could have
.accomplished before day light. On
the same day Mr. George W. Russ who
bad been employed for the purpose
arrested two persons as the burglars
in Altoona who profhes to hail .from
Harrisburg. There is quite a strong
chain of circumstantial evidence a
gainst themi which it would be im—
proper to state at present. We did
not learn their names."

CAMP OP 205th REGT., P. V.,
February 901,1805,
DEAR GLOBE :—Many months have
passed since last I contributed to itbe
columns of that good Union. friend—
the Globe. It may' be interesting to
some of your readers to know that
the 205th P. V. belongs to :the 2nd
Brigade, 3d Division, 9th A. 6: ' , This
division is composed entirely of Penn
sylvanians. There aro six Regiments
formed into two Brigades, all one year
Regiments.
I served three years in the Pa. Res.
Vol. Corps,, but must confess I never
saw a more splendid body of troops
than this division.
This division is now on the extreme
left, participating in the campaign
commenced on Sunday the sth. So far
as heard from, the "Jonnie's" have•
-been-rougniy teit,;_jung _ -
the number of prisoners captured, the
contest must have been severe. Your
unworthy writer was left in charge of
camp and extra baggage, a .position
envied by many on the march, as . the
weather has been extremely disagree
able since the movement commenced.
The move took us like "thunder took
the toad," unawares, as the prevailing
sentiment was peace. But when the
orders came that delusion warcheer
fully dispelled, and all wont off with
an tale willingness—shout-.
ing "this is Blair's armistice." What
ever his (Blair's) mission South was,
it has not created a very "formidable"
opinion sihmeng the soldiers that a ces
sation of hostilities will result there
from.
It'is very apparent that the .rebels
were determined to profit by the flag
of truce permitting the commissioners
within our lines, RA they moved large
bodies'of troops to their right; -with
the intention, doubtless, to flank our
left, but the poor deluded lidscreants
were discovered from our signal sta
tions and: their movement has been
checked with a blow that, I fear, laid
low many a hero of the 'Southern
chivalry, who had better been born a
dog than cause our wrath."
It is the prevailing opinion that the
Spring campaign has cominenced, but
I do not believe it, as the weather is
very disagreeable 'end will be unsettled
for two months to come; unless poiv
erful events should make it necessary,
when all the efforts of this mighty ar
my
will be put forth to crush and con
quer every rebel in arms, till not a
vestige will be left. of the grand rebel.
army of :Northern Virginia. But, j
while wo are doing our part
,in, the
field, we would appeal to, tliose .at
home for encouragement by wny.. of
rashing "enstanter, en propria persona"
to the scene of strife, and not stand in
the back-ground of this grand military .
stage, but swell our decimated ranks,
and do not make cowardice a pretext
upon which to palliate your derelic
tion of duty. While Sherman's victori
ous army is traversing the sunnyfielde
of South Carolina, and Thomas' killing
columns are sweeping like avalanches
all before it, let tile Grand Army of
the Potomac tell in tones of thunder,
that to provoke its power is certain
death; then will come that long fought
for • messenger—peace, a victorious
peace.
The health of the entire Regiment
is good. The inflexible will of our
Major, (M. B. Morrow, from nollidays
burg) to make his Regiment efficient
in drill, and discipline, is telling with
wonderful effect, Our good Colonel
(J. A. Mathews of Lewistown) is com
manding our brigade, and now home
on leave of fifteen days.
