The returned Boldiors of Huntingdon county are requested to assemble in the Court House; at 'Huntingdon, on Friday, the 29th inst., at 1 o'clock, P. M. At the meeting then to bo held a variety of subjects, affecting the inter ests of the soldiers, are to bo consider ed, and important business transacted, in Accordance with the suggestions of the Pittsburg Convention. The name proposed for the national association should be adopted by the League, and action should also be taken in regard to the platform offered as a basis of organization. The sentiments therein expressed do not vary materially from those contained in the resolutions al ready 'passed by the League, and for the sake of uniformity tbrogghout the Commonwealth, they should be made the ground on which the campaign is to bo fought.. As was feared when General Geary was consulted in Pittsburg, other en gagements will prevent him from be ing present at our next meeting. Ho, however, promises to visit us at an early period in the campaign. Ar rangements should be made as to the time when it will be convenient for him to be here, and preparations made to receive him. MILTON S. LrrLE, Pre6ident .ZlTew Cumberland, Pa., June 21,'66 MILTON S. LYTLE, Esq.,—MY DEAR SIR :-I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 19th inst. And also of your previous letter of invitation to be present at a meet ing of the "Soldier's League" at Hun tingdon, on the 29th inst. I regret to state that owing to arrangements over which I have had no control, it will be impossible for me to be at Huntingdon at the time you indicate. Matters of the highest importance will take place r 'ember°, to which my attention must lie given, at the time of your meeting. I hope therefore you \ll do me the favor to place this matter right before our friends, for it it is not done, it will have the semblance, on my part, of want of punctuality, for which I always feel indi g nant towards others, and could.notblame others if they felt so to me. I expect most certainly to visit my friends in Huntingdon County, early in the campaign, and hope therefore that any disappointment in the pres ent case may thus be obviated. With my best wishes for the welfare of our fellow soldiers, both individually and collectively, I have the honor to be your devoted friend and obedient servant. JOUN W. GEARY. —Go and see Harry Leslie in Fa vorite Parts, at Castilian Garden.

The horse was about six years old, of a brown color, and in good condition. A reward of $230 is offered for the re. covery of the horse and arrest and con xiction of the thief, or $5O for the re. turn of the horse. alone.

A platform is being erected in Independence Square, which will accommodate fifteen hun dred children. They will be address ed by the Governor. The Confidence Game A ioung man named Bowers, be-. longing to Altoona, Blair co., Pa., ar rived in this city a few days ago and put up at the States' Union Hotel, in Market street. Tho day after his ar rival he formed the acquaintance of what ho supposed to be a very accom modating young manp who volunteer ed to show him around town. Yes terday morning they started out to gether and on reaching the custom house they met another person who approached the Altoonian and his companion, saying to the latter, "1 have that bill with me." "Oh, yes," replied the other man, "I will pay you now." The bill was handed to him and carefully examined. He felt in his pocket and discovered that he had nothing smaller than a $5OO note. Turning to the countryman, ho said, "Have you any loose money about you; I would like to have a loan of $2OO to settle this matter with, until we ra turn." The money was handed over and paid to the man who presented the bill, a receipt wag given, and the man and money left by the rear door of the building. Swindler No. 1, the Altooniau's supposed friend, had a sudden business call down the street, saying ho would return in a•few min utes. Tho countryman waited a long time, and finally concluded that he bad been swindled- out of his money, and was fully satisfied that a confi dence man had done the work.---Press. -- Prof. Stophany, tho Celebrated Pianist, at Castilian Garden. m:os The year 1866 is destined to bo a year of crime, if the past six months can be taken as a criterion for the bal ance. Murder, Rapine, Burglary, In cendiarism and Theft, are of almost daily occurrence, oven within the lim its of our own county. Scarcely an exchange reaches us that does not give an account of some brutal murder, the burning of some house or barn, some daring robbery, or the perpetra tion of some of the lesser crimes in the catalogue. In this couuty, within the past few days,men have been attacked and robbed on the public road, and stores and private houses broken into and robbed. Let every one be on their guard, as 'the country is alive with villains. Harry Wells, Violinist and gen oral performer at Castilian Garden. A Dastardly Act We understand that ono day last week, some two or three boys, who were prowling about the country with a gun, strolling on the farm of Mr. Ilamer, in Walk& township, and see ing a colt belonging to him, fired at it, shattering a bone in ono of its hind logs to splinters. Mr. Hamer was compelled to kill it, as there was no chance of it getting well. We aro in formed that ho lost a colt last season under similar circumstances. The only regret is, that the boys are not known, and they aro likely to escape a year or so in the penitentiary, which their wicked and malicious conduct richly deserves.—American, 20th. Don't forget Billy Chambers, the Champion Banjoist of the World, at Castilian Garden. , Robert McDivitt expects by his loud professions now,of love for the sol dier, to wipe out his opposition to the soldiers last fall, and his disgraceful denunciation of Judgo Beaver as a guerilla. Robert are you honestly a friend of the soldier ? If so, are you in favor of the nomination of either Baker or Gregg over Wharton, Swoopo and Judge Loas. Come, speak out, show your love for the soldier, if you are honestly his friend. —Don't fail to seo J. C. KOOl3O, the greatest Jig and Essence Dancer in the World, at Castilian Garden. The Base Ball Game. On Wednesday last nine of the mem bers of the Logan Club, Altoona, play ed a game with nine of the American Club of this place. The Altoona, boys have been in practice for a year, and did up their work well. The Young Americans have been organized but a few weeks and played lazily and were of course beaten. —Go see Harry Richmond, the IVorld Renowned Song and dar.eo man at Castilian Garden. What Everybody Says Must be True We have heard frequently of late, strangers say that the "ancient bor ough" is the liveliest town on the Pennsylvania Railroad. Ono thing is certain, we have a lively and industri ous people, and all could havo some thing to do if they wore not lazy. Base ball playing may change the habits of some young men.
