LOCAL AFFAIRS.
J6*arWe learn that the Farmers' Rank
of Schuylkill county has issued no two
dollar small notes, so that all of that class
on that bank are spurious. The Is can
easily be detected. The genuine has a
male portrait on left end, a male portrait
on lower right hand corner, and a fox chase
for a vignette. The counterfeit is nothing
like this. All the notes passed here came
from two parties from up the river, who
will consult their safety by not passing any
more, as the transaction has assumed asus
picious appearance, and the bank notified
of the source whence they came.
BOAT BUILDING. —This business, which
had been in a measure almost suspended
on the Juniata during the past few years,
gives some promise of a revival. A major
ity of the boats now in use are pretty well
worn out —others have beeu disposed of
—so that there will propahly be a consid
.rable demand for some years. We learn
•hat Messrs. Buskins and Alter, who have
an excellent reputation for building sub
stantial canal boats, have now orders for
four new ones, (as well as three or four to
repair) which will give them employment
for some time.
DEATH OF A SO.UUER.—Corporal Al
bert B. Strong, a member of Capt. Taylor's
company, First Pennsylvania Cavalry, was
taken sick with typhoid lever on Thursday,
and died on Monday morning last, much
regretted by his companions in arms. He
was a son of Juhn Strong, of Three Locks,
Oliver township, and between 19 and 20
years of age. His father had been tele
giaphed, but missed the connection at Bal
timore. and did not reach the camp until
some hours after he died. The company
provided a coffin for the young soldier, es
corted his remains to the Chain Bridge
with Capt. Taylor at their head, and thence
scut under charge of Mr. Coplin to his
home —all at their expense.
CANAL NAVIGATION' may now be said
to be at an end for this season, as the wa

THE NEW JUDGE.—The Mifflinburg
Tribune, in speaking of Judge Woods' first
appearance on the bench, says: 44 lie was
introduced to the audience by Judge Mid
dleswarth ; after reading of bis commission
by Mr. .Simpson, and other preliminary
proceedings, the Judge delivered one of
the most comprehensive and magnificent
charges to the grand jury, that we ever had
she pleasure of listening to. At the re
quest of in-ny, we asked the Judge for a
copy, for publication, which be kindly
promised to furnish us at his earliest con
venience. Every person seemed to be
pleased with the new Judge, and he has
- far made a very favorubjt impression
upon the public mind."

——A carriage broke down in the diamond
on Saturday, but without injury to those
in it. The second ball came off at the
Lewistown Hotel last Thursday, bqt with
a small attendance—probably owing to the
fact that too many dancing gentlemen hav§
holes in their pockets. Turkeys are un
usually abundant this year. Thus far they
-iavc been selling at 6 cents per lb., which
is more than can be obtained for them from
dealers in the city. What has become
of the temperance meetings ? Have the
topers all been reformed, or is Captain
Whiskey in the ascendant? A pro
tracted meeting was commenced in the
Lutheran Church last week, since which

Report of John L. Griffith, Agent for " The
Lewistown Colony"—Emigrants for Ha,li:
On the 15th of October, 1861, the expends
for moving eighty two colored persons from
Lewistown to Sjew York were <BO 00
Money collected by n Je in the Bor
ough of Lewistown, sls 00
Appropriation by county Commis'ns., 5 00
Clothing, jo
Ibis sum ($32) was considered a very ex
travagant collection. It can readily be seen
trom the above figures what kind of outfit
these colored people had, for a journey of
eighteen hundred miles. The emigrants
themselves collected, each for his or her in
dividual use alone, perhaps an aggregate of
§4O. This will compare favorably with the
emigration of the Children of Israel from the
land of Egypt. Withal they seem to be eon
tented with their new home, as we learn from
a letter received December 2, 1861, from Da
vid Walker, and Lewis Thomas. The emi
grants appear to think they have found the
land of promise. Also, a letter from Robert
Mills, who is now putting in his first crop in
Hayti, reports favorably, and tells us that he
will return in the spring and take his family
out. A number of other letters confirm this
good news of our colored friends. Besides,
those who have gone from this place, fifteen
started in the month of November from Belle
fonte, and this morning another party of twen
ty five passed through oqr town "from the
same p'ace on their way to enjoy with their
friends the sunny skies and genial climate of
this far off Island. In April there will be
thirty more ready to go from Lewistown.
Will not some kind person head a subscrip
tion for them with $lO, as Mr. F.J. HOFFMAN
did the first list.

WAR NEWS.
Despatches received at Cincinnati report
that a spirited fight occurred at Alleghany
Camp, Cheat Mountain, on Friday. It is
characterized as the hardest and best fought
fight of the campaign. It is not stated,
but we presume the fight commenced by an
attack on the Uuiou position. The battle
lasted from daylight to three in the after
noon. 1 lie rebeL were finally driven off
losing two hundred, including a Major,
other officers and about thirty prisoners.
Ihe rebels set fire to their tents and re
treated to Staunton. Their commander,
Gen. Johnson, of Georgia, was seriously
but not mortally injured. Our troops were
commanded by Gen. Milroy, who is we be
lieve a native of Mifflin county.
Twelve mortar boats attached totheMis
sissippi Union squadron left St. Louis for
Cairo on the morning of the 10th. There
are in all thirty eight of these boats to be
attached to the flo.illa. As a necessary
measure ol precaution the commerce of the
Mississippi and Missouri rivers has been
placed, by order of Gen. Halleck, under
military control. Another order issued,
quarters the Union families who have been
driven from their homes by the rebels upon
those wlio sympathize with the secession
movement, with sufficient pains and penal
ties in case of resistance. The latest news
from Price still leaves him at Osceola with
from ten to fifteen thousand men.
The news from Missouri, though not ex
citing, is of much importance. A few
days since Major Marshall routed a band
of rebels under Ji.c Shelby, and captured
four captains, two adjutants, one lieuteuant
and forty men, with arms, horses, wagons,
a mortar, and other articles. Gen. Pope,
who is in command of the district between
the Missousi and Osage rivers, is acting
very efficiently against the small marauding
parties of rebels scattered through the
country.
The steamer Constitution arrived at Old
Point on Sunday from Ship Island, Missis
sippi Sound, where she had landed two
regiments of Gen. Butler's brigade. The
troops were all landed in four hours, by
the aid of some small steamers captured
from the rebels. The Constitution will
probably take on board three more regi
ments and return immediately to the South.
Ship Island is about seventy-five miles from
New Orleans.
The Raleigh, North Carolina, Standard
announces that a Federal regiipent had ta
ken possession of Portsmouth, atOcracoke
Inlet, and that ten of our gunboats were in
Pamlico Sound.
Parson Rrownlow, the Louisville Cour
ier, printed at Bowling Green, says has
been arrested for treason at Knoxville,
Tennessee, and committed to jail.
The Secretary of War has declined to
furnish to Congress certain information
asked for in relation to the Ball's Bluffdis
aster, Gen. McClellan believing it would be
injurious to the public service to do so.
The official report received from Col.
Brown of the late battle at Pensacola makes
it evident that no very effective demonstra
tion can be made in that quarter bgfore
large reinforcements are sent there, and a
combined attack made by our fleet, Fort
Pickens, 3 a strong land force.
The Charleston Courier of Friday has a
report from Beaufort stating that the
Yankees advanced their positions to near
Port Royal fejry on Tuesday, and crossed the
ferry under cover of artillery to the mainland
and destroyed several confederate rifle pits.
The Govercnmentbas fairly commenced the
exchange cf prisoners. Two hundred and
forty four of those taken at Hatteras have
been released from Fort Warren and have
embarked on board a vessel for Fortress
Monroe, where they will await an equal aum
ber of released Federal prisoners. This news
Will rejoice all the friends of the Union pris
oners in the hands of the rebels, and, at the
same time, greatly tend to alleviate the hor
rors of the present war.
>tiny of a Deserter.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.— Gen. Franklin
was yesterday furnished with a copy of the
order for the execution of Wm. H. John
son, a private in the Lincoln Cavalry. Ac
cording to report, his offence was desertion,
supposing himself to be in the presence of
a party of the enemy, he expressed his joy
that he had made his escape. The officer
in command had a private conversation
with him, when he freely and anxiously
gave such information as would have been
of great importance to the Rebels. His
revelation being concluded, lie was arrested,
and much to hi.v surprise he discovered his
mistake when he was taken buck to his own
camp a prisoner !
The execution took place this afternoon
in the presence of about seven thousand
soldiers belonging to General Frauklin'3
Division. A detachment of twelve men
were detailed for the purpose. Fight of
them first fired, when Johnson fell on his
coffiu, but life not being extinct the other
four in reserve fired with the required ef
fect. This is the first execution in the ar
my of the Potomac since the commence
ment of the Rebellion.
A Storm in Camp.
Soldiers Struck by Lightning. —An ex
tract from a letter written by a member of
Col. Stambaugh's Regiment, encamped at
Camp Xevin, Kentucky, says :
4 Last evening about seven o'clock, a'ter
a beautiful warm day, the western sky be
came dark and lowering, with frequent
flashes of lightning and low mutteriugs of
distant thunder. At 8 o'clock the tattoo
sounded, and the inhabitants of our tented
city retired to rest. Slowly the heavy
clouds rolled towards the zenith, and at
midnight, with seeming ten fold darkness,
the storm, with unparalleled fury, burst
upon us; and peal after peal rent the spread
ing air with heaven's overcharged artil
lery. At this time a deafeuing explosion
took place in the next tent to my quarters,
and terrific yells from the sentinel brought
me to my feet. I soon found the tent to
be on fire, and Lieut. WChart, from Ful
ton county, Pa., and Lieut. West, from St.
Thomas, Franklin co., struck by lightning;
although badly burnt, the sides of their limbs
to a crisp, yet God's mercy interposed
and saved their lives by the very weapons
they had brought with them to protect
them from the rebel foe, little dreaming
that it would prove their safety in the
tempest and the storm; their swcrds by
their sides were melted by the subtle fluid,
and no doubt exhausted its fury and saved
their lives. At this writing, I have heard
of no other accidents resulting from the
storm. —J. L. (J., Brookville Republican.
I learn from the Bellefcnte papore
, that the trial of Lipton and Ilays for the raur
j der of Poorman in August last while return
ing from a Campnieeting in Pc.nr.s Valley,
Centre county, after occupying the time of
the Court for nearly a week, has resulted in
the acquittal of Ilays, and the conviction of
Lipton for manslaughter. Lipton had not
yet been sentenced. Messrs James T. Ilale
an.l 11. N. McAllister were counsel for De
fondants, Messrs. McManus, Wallace, and
Keuisli for the Commonwealth.

MTiiRAL HISTORY,
Crows Can Count But Three.
A few months since v/e were riding in a
i stage coach with several gentlemen, when
I the conversation turned upon crows, and
j many anecdotes were related. One gentle
man said that he knew that crows could
; count—at least as far as three—for he had
often proved it. Being troubled with crows
iu the field, he had often to shoot them.—
i But they knew what a gun was as well as
he did, and therefore kept out of his reach.
He then concluded to put a small booth in
the field, and placed some carrion—a dead
horse —within gun-shot. From this place
i he supposed he could fire at them when
they alighted to eat. Whenever he enter
ed the booth, the crows would all sit upon
the distant trees, and not one would come
near till he was gone, when all would alight
; except the sentinel, who remained to give
warning if danger approached.
The gentleman finding his plan to fail,
thought he would deceive them. So he
took his son with him to the booth, conclu
ing that when they had seen one go away,
the crows would think the coast clear, and
descend to the bait, But when the son
left the booth, a crow sung out caw, caw,
caw (there goes one), but not a crow would
leave bis place. The next day the gentle
man took two persons with hipj to the booth,
and left them depart one at a time. The
crows on the trees saw the first, and cried
out 4 there goes one,' in their own peculiar
dialect, then when the other went 4 there
goes two,' but they would not alight, for
they had counted three when they entered. ■
The day following the gentleman took
three others with him. When they went
out one by one, the crows cried 4 there goes
one,' ' there goes two,' 4 there goes three,' j
and when these men were out of sight, they
all alighted, and the gun of the fourth man
did its work.
The gentleman stated that this thing had
been tried repeatedly, and it was evident
that crows could count as far as three, but
there their arithmetic ended. When they
will ascend to the higher branches of math
ematics is yet to be ascertained. In the
meantime others can bring on the incidents
of crow nology.— Olive Branch.

And add to her comfort through life.

And'll call at the Coffee Pot Sign.

Should your wife need one, don't teaze her.
