RAILROAD ACCIDENTS —The past
week has again been an unfortunate
one to the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany in this neighborhood, several ac
cidents having occurred, disarranging
almost every train on the road. • Four
ears containing coal oil, grain, &c.,
were burnt about five miles west of
this, caused by a break down or colli
sion ; some others we hear were wreck
ed at or near Anderson's Station ; a
break down in the Narrows; and an
other train injured by running off,
caused by the displacement of a switch.
Several accidents have also occurred
on other parts of the road. The pas
senger trains, although entirely disar
ranged. got along pretty well, though
quite a serious accident occurred to the
Philadelphia Express train on Friday,
west of Altoona, caused by a broken
rail, which precipitated three cars
over a steep embankment. Two pas
sengers, named Wright and Kohn, of
Philadelphia, were killed, and several
wounded. The weather this winter
has been very severe on the road, the
hard freezing raising the bed and ren
dering rails, axletrees, &c\, brittle.
SMALL. POX. —Some cases of this dis
ease still prevail in town, but we can
assure our readers that the reports of
cases by the dozen are erroneous.
Wherever there is sickness or ailing of
any kind foolish people at once trans
form rheumatism, fevers, colds, bruises,
&c., into the dreaded disease, as if
nothing else could exist with it. So
far as it has rpread was altogether ow
ing to thy carelessness of families
where it existed. We hear there is a
report in the conntry that among oth
ers there is a case in C. C. Burkhold
er s laniily. This is false, and we have
the authority of Mr. B. to say that
should any one in his house be affected
with it, his Photographic Gallery will
be closed.
i he weather has moderated con
h.derabh and melted some of the snow,
but yesterday morning about three in
ch(.s had again fallen. Some geese have
been winging their way northward,
and several spring birds made their
all betokening that they
*ider it time for fair weather, but

li. I HO LOAN.
f|\V authority of the Secretary of the Treasury, the
undersigned has assumed the General Subscrip
tion Agency for the sale of United States Treasury
| Notes, bearing seven and three tenths per cent, inter
est per annum, known as the
SEVEN-THIRTY LOAN.
These notes are issued under date ot August 15th, 1864,
and are payable three years from that time, in currency
or are convertible at the option of the holder into
l/ T . S, 3-20 *ix per cenl.
GOLD BEARING BONDS.
These bonds are now worth a premium of nine per
cent., including gold interest from Nov., which makes
the actual profit on the 7-30 loan, at current rates, in
cluding iuterest, about ten per cent, per annum, be
sides its cxemptiijn from State and •municipal taxation,
which adds from one to three per cent, more, according to
the rate levied on other property. The interest is pay
able semi-annually by coupons attached to each note,
which may be cut otf and sold to any bank or banker.
The interest amounts to

now offered by the Government, and it is confidently
expected that its superior advantages will m ike it the
GRFAT POITLAR LOAM OF THE PEOPLE.
Less than $200,000,000 remain unsold, which will
probably be disposed of within the next Go or9odays,
when the notes will undoubtedly command a premium
as has uniformly been the case on closing the sub
scriptions to other Loans.
In order that citizens of every town and section of
the country may be afforded facilities for taking the
loan, the National Hanks. State Banks, and Private
Bankers throughout the country have generally
agreed to receive subreriptions at par. Subscribers
will select their own agents, in whom they have con
fidence. and who only are to be responsible for the
delivery of the notes for which they receive orders.
