TERRIBLE WINTER :DISASTER By a passenger who arrived hero on the Central Railroad last night, from the West, we learn of one of the most fearful and hear , - rending affairs that has ever occurred in rois section of the country, viz : that r. family of seven persons were frozen to death during the cold weather on Friday last Abnut thirty miles from the boundary line between Michi gan and Indiana. in the latter State, about midway between Centreville and Crown Point, lived a German, with his wife and five child ren, named Krutzer. The oldest was a boy of seven years of age, the next a boy of five, and three girls, all less than the boys, the young est but an infant. The country where the family resided is very rolling, and the snow had drifted into the hollows, making the road almost, if not wholly, impassable for even pedestrians. The driver of the stage coach coming from Crown Point to Lake. via Centreville, found that Krutzer'e dwelling had been burned to the ground, it is supposed the night previous, but none of the family were to be seen. About a mile father on, howccsr, he was horrified to find the father and two boys frozen to death. The boys were in the fmher's arms, and it is supposed that he had fallen with them after having been so far affected with the frost as not to be able to proceed. The three corpses were placed in the stage, hut before it had proceeded more than a mile on its destination, the body of the oldest girl, was found in a snow-drift, with a shawl wrapped closely around it, where it hod doubtless been de posited by ita_weary mother, while yet alive, in the hope that s QUO chance traveler might rescue it from an impending fate. This corpse, too, was placed in the coach, and again it started on its way, only to find, after travelling a short distance, the lifeless remains of the mother, with the two youngest children. The body of the mother was stand ing erect in a snow drift, with the children in her arms, the youngest being at the breast. The seven lifeless bodies were conveyed to Centreville by the driver of the stage, at which place they were decently interred by the in habitants.—Detroit Tribune. THREE BOYS FROZEN TO DEATH IN ILLINOIS. —A most distressing case lof suffering from the late terrible snow storm occurred at Whitley's Point, Moultrie county, about seven miles from this place, on Thursday night last. Three boys, sons of Mr. W. B. Hendricks, in attempting to return home from school, about one mile from their father's house, were frozen, the two youngest, aged nine and eleven years, to death, and the oldest, fifteen years of age, so badly that we understand, he has since died. When school was dismissed the three started for home, but, becoming blin ded and benumbed by the intense cold of the stinging wind and snow, soon returned to the school house, where they remained until two or three o'clock, in the morning, when they again attempted to make their aay home. When within sight of the light at home, made by the family, who were up by four o'clock, the two smallest boys were no longer able to walk, and leaned up against a corn shock to keep off the wind, while the eldest wont home for assistance. When he reached the house his face was badly frozen, and his limbs so thoroughly frozen that he could scarcely move. As soon as he could make known the where shouts of the brothers, assistance was sent them. But, alas lit was too late. They were both dead—frozen stiff—and that, too, in sight of home.—hfaUon, Illinois Gazette. THE SMALL Pox.—Tile opinion has obtained among some medical authorities that the plague of Athens, so graphically described by Thucydides, was identical with small-pox. But the first appearance of this terribly de— structive disease is usually assigned to the year 569. At this time ttie Abys , inian army was laying siege to Mecca, when it broke out in the camps, and made such fearful havoc that the siege was raised. The conquests of Mohammed, which soon followed, hastened greatly its spread thr )ugh-lit the world, and it has now for more than a thousand years prevailed in Europe With it went conster nation and death. Neither the prescriptions of medical knowledge nor the devices of su perstition seemed to retard its progress or les sen its fatality.

The Governor elect was here received by a committee of the two }louses and en Jrted to the platf .rm erected in fr,rit of the capitol, which was gaily decorated with the flags of the veteran trn - ps from Pennsylvania. On the oath of office being administered, the G wernor made his inaugural address. In his Inaugural, the Governor says : " I need hardly renew my pledge, that during the term of office, in which I am about to enter, I will give my whole moral and official power to the prosecuti 'n of this war, and in raiding the National Government in every effort to.:cure early a complete success over our malignant foes.

A CANDID ADMISSION The loss of East Tennessee to the rebels, is regarded as a very severe blow to them. The Richmond Enquirer says "Our lisses by the enemy gaining p session of East Tennessee are incalculable. We are not only deprived of the vast flour mills of that country which previously supplied the army, but of vast machine shops exten sively organized at Knoxville Besides this we are cut oft from the coal and copper mines which were worth millions. "The copper rolling mills at Cleveland, superintended by Col. Peet, Government agent, which were burned by the enemy, formerly turned out 6,000 pounds of copper per day. Over 3,000,000 pounds have been delivered to the government. This was the only copper-rolling mill in the country, and which kept us supplied in copper for iior caps and cannon. " This is among our losses of the battle of Chattanooga which i spoken of as merely re sulting in the lose of a few thousand men and thirty-eight cannon." MAmmoim lloc.—We have chronicled the kilbng of some fine and heavy porkers in this County this season, but they have a hog in New York city just now that " takes down " anything in the pork line that we have ever heard of. The hog was raised by J. W . Copoman, in Cayuga county, New York, and fatted to its present enormous size, by A. B. Benham, of Dryden, Tompkins county, same State. In May, 1863, it weighed 1,120 pounds, in Septemb r, 1,249 pounds, in Octo ber, 1,276 pounds, and in December, 1,340. It has been growing rapidly since, and is now supposed to weigh 1,400 pounds. Its breed is a cross of the Leicester and Suffolk, with a slight cross of the Berkshire. This monster pig is soon to be killed. SIOUX CAUSING TROUBLE IN CANADA About 1,000 rebellious Sioux, fleeing from the Union army in Minnesota, have crossed the Canada line, and are causing much trou— ble in the vicinity of Selkirk. Some time ago permission was asked of the British Govern— ment to cross the line with our troops in or der to prevent such outrages as are now tak. ing place. After consultation with the home govern ment, Lord Lyons replied that such permis— sion could not be granted. Efforts have been made to persuade the Sioux to return to our territory, but the Indians reply that if they come back they will be killed, and they might as well die there.—N. Y Tribune. HORRIBLE AFFAIR.—Jacob Schriner and Adam Snowberger, both married men, lived near neighbors, and it is said that Schriner had been living in criminal intimacy with Snowberger's wife, Agnes. About three weeks ago, Snowberger suddenly'aisappeared, and, on inquiries being made as to his where abouts, Schriner replied that he supposed he had gone to the army or to Ohio to visit his father. On Tuesday of last week, Scbriner's wife, Elizabeth, died very suddenly, and was buried the next day. Suspicions of foul play were aroused among the neighbors, and Schriner was arrested. Search was made and Snowberger's body was found in a brush heap twenty or thirty rods from Schriuer's house, his head split open with the sharp edge of an axe. Schriner confessed that he killed Snowber ger while working together, without any quarrel or provocation whatever. He says that he was put up to it by Snowberger's wile ; that he was to kill Snowberger, and she to kill his (Schriner's) wife. Mrs. Snowber ger has been arrested on the charge of poison ing Schriner's wife, and both she and Sohriner UIUBLIC SALE.--On SATURDAY, the were brought here on Tuesday evening, and I - 13th day of FEBRUARY, 1864, the undersigned ad. lodged in the county jail.

S . 5- 2 0 s. - The Secretary of the Treasury has not yet given notice of any intention to withdraw this popular Loan from Sale at Par, and until ten days notice is given, the undersigned, as " General Subscription Agent," will continue to supply the public. The whole amount of the Loan authorised le Five Hum dred Millions of Dollars. Nearly Your Hundred Millions have been already subscribed for and paid into the Treas ury, mostly within the last seven months. The large de mand from abroad, and the rapidly increasing home demand forme as the basis for circulation by National Banking Associations now organizing in all parts of the country, will, in a very short period, absorb the balance. Sales have lately ranged from ten to fifteen millions week ly, frequently exceeding three millions daily, and as it is well known that the Secretary of the Treasury has ample and unfailing resources in the Duties on Imports and In ternal Revenues, and in the issue of the Interest bearing Legal Tender Treasury Notes, it is almost a certainty that he will not find it necessary, fur a long time to come, to seek a market for any other long or permanent Loans, THE INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL OF WHICH ARE PAYABLE IN GOLD. Prudence and self interest must force the minds of those contemplating the formation of National Banking Associ ations, as well as the minds of all who have idle money on their hands, to the prompt conclusion that they should lose no time in subscribing to this most popular Loan. It will soon be beyond their reach, and advance to a hand- some premium, as was the result with the "Seven Thirty" Loan, when it was all sold and could to longer be sub scribed for at par. It M a Six per Cent. Loan, the Interest and Principal payable In Coin, thus yielding over Nine per Cent. per an num at the present rate of premium on coin. The Government requires all duties on imports to be paid In Coln ; these duties have for a long time past amounted to over a Quarter of a Million of Dollars daily, a sum near ly three times greater than that required in the payment of the interest on all the 5-20's and other permanent Loans. So that it is hoped that the surplus Coln in the Treasury, at no distant day, will enable the United States to resume specie payments upon all liabilities. The Loan Is called 5-20 from the fact that whilst the Bonds may ran for 20 years, yet the Government has a right to pay them off in Gold at par, at any time after 5 years. . . The Interest is paid half yearly, viz on the first days of November and May. Subscribers can have Coupon Bonds, which are payable to bearer, and are $6O, $lOO $5OO, and 81000; or Registered Bonds of same denominations, and In addition, $5,000 and $lO,OOO. For Banking purposes and for Investment of Trust monies the Registered Bonds are preferable. These 6 2Q's .nnot be taxed by States, cities, towns or counties, and the Government tax on them is only one and a half per cent, on the amount of income, when the in come of the holder exceeds Six Hundred dollars per annum; all other investments, such as income from Mortgages, Railroad Stock and Bonds, etc, must pay from three to five per cent. tax on the Income. Hanks and Bankers throughout the Country will eon. tinue to dispose of the Bonds; and all orders by mail, or otherwise, promptly attended to. - . The inconvenience of a few days' delay in the delivery of the Bonds is unavoidable, the demand being so groat; but as interest commenced from the day of subscription, no loss is occasioned, and every effort is being made to diminish the delay.

Yours respectfully, ALTOONA, Pa., May 1, 18433. Dr. WhiOtekl-Bir : This is to certify that I have been afflicted with the Rheumatism for many years, and have tried many things said to be cures without any relief. I am employed drying sand for the P. R. R., and having to be in the damp and steam nearly all the. time, I was afraid that I never would get well again. One of my some has been so bad that I was afraid I would lose the use of it altogether; it was so weak and painful that I had to raise it with my other hand whenever I wished to change its position. The bottle of klialder's Herb Bitters I got from you the other day, has so much relieved me that I can now raise my arm without difficulty and it is getting as strong as ever. Prom the wonderful improvement it has made In my health, I can recommend rffishler's Herb Bitters with the greatest confidence to all those afflicted with the Rheuma tism.
