ALTOONA, August 3d, 1864. ■J/ ssrs. M ('amant, Guyer and London: I GENTLEMEN —The Congressional Con Hference having balloted through three Heuc-essive days without any result before I deem it proper t j relieve ■you of any embarrassment so far as I am ■ personally concerned. I need not say to ! 'iHßyou. gentlemen, my personal friends, and B who are familiar with the history of the events wnich resulted in placing me in my B present attitude, that I am not now. and have not been, anx.ous to he the Union IB Candidate for Congress in this District. I To the National Union party of the B County of Blair which, in the Cotiven B tion of its delegates, by a vote so decided B and flattering, designated me as its candi date, and to you, gentlemen, representing the semiment of that ptrty and its con vention, for the zeal and earnestness with which you have aimed to carry out that preference, 1 return my most profound acknowledgement. 1 would, however, be unworthy of the confidence reposed in me by my friends at home, if, with a selfish ness incapable of looking beyond personal cLims or aspirations, I should ask you to do more than you have already done, to effect ■my nomination. 1 have personally no ■ claim or merit, which does not dwindle to ■ nothing in view of the CAUSE which it is. B or should be, the aim of all of us to fur ■ ther. in this trying hour i f the republic ■ A pertinacious adherence ta local claims or personal preferences, in times like these. ■ would, as we must all feel, be unpardonable. m At any time the expressed preference of a i County Convention, must commit some ■ tiling to the discretion ol its delegated ■ agents. That discretion, lam free to say. I should now be exercised by you, in ■ your best judgment and most devoted ■ patriotism. It was in this spirit and in I good faith, that I absolved you on the sec I ond day of your bailotting, from any obli ■ gations you might feel to me personally; SB and I now say more explicitly, that I do H not desire you to insist lurther upon my I nomination, in any future bailotting by the Conference. I am, gentlemen. Faithfully your friend, LOUIS W. HALL. On motion the Conference proceeded to ■ the 393 d ballot, when Air Barker received I 9, being the votes of Cambria, Mifflin and j Blair, and was therefore declared duly ■I nominated On motion of Mr. Henderson, seconded ■ by Mr McVitty, the nomination of Mr I Barker was uii.de unanimous. On motion the Chair appointed Messrs ■ McCamant, Nulter, and McKce a commit I tee to inform Mr. Barker of his nomina- S tion The committee retired and after a brief I absence returned with Mr Barker, who, I after being introduced, accepted the notu I ination in a few appropriate remarks. On motion Messrs. McKee, McCamant j and Nulter were appointed a committee I to invite Messrs. Hall and Dorris to appear [ before the Conference. After a brief absence, the committee i returned, with Messrs. Hall and Dorris, who, alter being introduced, respectively addressed the Conference. ■ On motion adjourned sine die. A. C. MULLIN,) 0 , S. M'CAMANT, j 8 IBSk- Some movements have been made towards filling the quota of the borough, which it is to he hoped will prove successful. The commissioners having declined to offer a bounty, the Burgess and Tcwn Council appropria ted §SO to each volunteer, and laid a special tax of mills to meet it, which is now in course of collection. The outside subscriptions amount to near ly §9UUO, so that §2OO local bounty is offered. Lieut. VVm. Willis has been appointed a mustering officer, and opened an office in West Market street, where recruits are now enlisted, sworn in and subsisted. 1. nion, Armagh and Brown are also offering liberal boun ties to volunteers. Bfiaf A meeting was held in the Town Hall on Thursday evening last, for the purpose of aiding the Chambersburg sufferers, which was addressed by Rev. Messrs. MeClean and Barnes. The at tendance was rather small, but few molded men being there. Committees were appointed to make collections; Mr. Russell ottered to be one of ten to give §IOO each, but thus far has not been seconded. These committees made reports at an adjourned meeting held on Monday evening, in the Pres- byterian lecture room, when it was found that an aggregate sum of §176.- 75 had been subscribed, of which §135.- 50 was already paid in. Assurances were given to the meeting, also, that other subscriptions would be made which would probably swell the amount of relief up to §2OO, or more. Wm. Russell, Esq., was appointed Treasurer, and Rev. O. O. McClean to forward the funds to the proper hands in Chambersburg. Our inhabitants generally, and those in Water street especially, were startled on Monday last by the shrill whistle of a locomotive passing over the M. & C. C. R R.. which is being rap idly completed towards Milrov, as these operations show. This road runs through a very romantic region, and by next summer crowds of visitors may take the numerous advantages offered of "riding on a rail," and re fresh themselves in the pure air of the mountain's height, bag the speckled beauties in the streams, or explore the dark caverns of the mammoth cave near that place, all of which charms are presented to dictative fancy. The enterprising citizens of those numer ous romantic spots along the line should make these places attractive by converting them into desirable resorts, thus inducing a large portion of the intelligent population in this and other States to come here and enjoy them selves outside of the bustle and busi ness of our large cities. Since the cars run through town, ocr "special" fails to report accident No. 1, but from the numerous youngsters constantly congregating at the track and on the cars, we fear we will not issue many editions before chronicling among our locle "Sad Accident." Parents should look to children more closely now than ever. ACCIDENTS, &C.—A man heavily ironed jumped from a railroad train somewhere above this place one night last week, but thus far we believe nothing has been heard whether he was killed or escaped He was we believe one of a gang of counterfeiters arrested in the west. A Mr. Boyle, a returned soldier from the Army, was killed near Burnt Cab ins a few weeks ago, by- the ball from a pistol in the hands of one Forbis, from Franklin county, who alleges the shooting accidental. The fast mail train east killed a man nan ed Peter Swangcr on Saturday morning a week. lie was walking on the track, and observing a freight train coming toward him, he stepped on the other track to allow it to pass, when the fast mail struck him from behind, killing him instantly. Swanger has been for some time employed as a teamster at Rockville Furnace, about five miles from Shirleysburg. lie was about fifty years of age, and leaves a wife and four children. The accident took place near Huntingdon. AN • INFALLIBLE CURE FOR DYSEN TERY. —Dr. Page, of Washington, com municates to the Republican of that city the following simple remedy, long known in family practice, and which was recently tried in the camp of the 22d New York regiment, where there were from eighty to one hundred cases daily, and with rapid cures in every case: Receipt: in a tea-cup half full of vinegar, dissolve as much salt as it will take up, leaving a little excess of salt at the bottom of the cup. Pour boil ing water upon the solution, till the cup is two thirds or three quarters full. A scum will rise to the surface, which must be removed and the solution al lowed to cool. Dote Tablespoonful three times a day until relieved. The rationale of the operation of this simple medicine will readily occur to the pathologist, and in many hun dred triftls I have never known it to fail in dysentery and protracted diar rhoea. Three pieces of music, viz: "Last of the Alabama," "This Harp is Mute." and the "Drummer Boy of Vicksburg," are on our table. The first is handsomely embellished with a colored frontispiece, and is one of those songs which will become popular with all who give it one trial of either in strument or voice. Tie second is more sentimental, but is published as "a beautiful song." The title of the Vicks burg song is enough. All are aware of the reputable popularity which those numerous "drummer boy songs" have gained. This is one of the latest out. and will commend itself wherever sung. They are all published, with everything else in the same line by J Marsh, 1102 Chestnut street, Philadel phia. Send for them. India Prices. —Prices are higher by a hundred per eent in India than they ever were before. The silver rupee, worth about fifty cents, will not buy as much as twenty five cents will in England. Arti cles of ladies' dress there cost five times as much they do at home. And yet India is draining Europe of specie and keeps it all. A plethora of gold appears to be as bad as a plethora of paper. B£*L We shall continue to publish the Gazette at its present terms, but to do so will be compelled to prune our list of all who do not pay promptly. There are many on it to whom it would af ford us pleasure to furnish the paper without remuneration further than its cost, but at present prices of printing pap#r, with a prospect that it will still continue to advance, we cannot do so without prompt payment.
