(Cl)t Centre Democrat Oct. 17T^86L LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. " Gov- Curtin. On last Friday evening our gallant Governor, arrived in our town, where he came for the purpose of recruiting his hoalth, which has been mnch impaired by the close attention he has paid to themany andarduous duties which devo've upon him iu his present responsible position No Govern or of any State has ever had more la bor to perform and more difficulties to contend with, than has Gov. Curtin during the short time he has oecupied the position of Chief Execu tive of the Keystone State. AVhen ho assumed the responsibilities of Governor and seized the reins of Government, he found the State on an admirable "peace footing," prepared only to en joy tho peace and happiness which had so long been our portion. And, when soon after, a call came for 15,000 men from Pennsylvania, to pro tect the city of Washington, ; then it was that our Governor was obliged to spend sleepless nights and days of labor, regardless of his personal wel fare and conifurt. How unceasingly he labored — bow zealously he toiled ; how he bent all his en ergies to raise tho men and means to respond to the call of ths Government. The call was an swered ! Another call came, and still another; They are all answered, with a readiness which speaks volumes in favor of the energy and ability of our noble Governor. Little do we know what amount of labor was required to raise and equip and feed the large number of soldiers which was required at the hands of Gov. Curtin. We can not form an idea of the amount of labor which he has porformed since his i nauguration. Yet not withstanding all his labor and all his untiring zeal, there were those found who were willing to charge upouhim sins of other men, and make him responsible for the frauds committed by greedy contractors. But he has came out of all these charges of corruption with clear skirts, and now stands high above his slanderers. We are proud of him ! We are proud that he is our fellow .citizm and at tho same time one of the first and greatest men of the nation. Upon his arrival in our town, Gov. Curtin stop, ped with Wm. P. Wilson, Esq , at whose residence he was visited by a large crowd of our citizcn g arid the Band, on Friday evening. Upon the ar. rival of the procession, tho Governor made his appearance, and was publicly welcomed, on be half of tho crowd, by 11. N. McAllister, Esq., in a most appropriate speech. The Governor then ascended tho stand, amid tho most vociferous cheering, and delivered such a speech as Govern or Curtiu only can make. We will not attempt to report it; for we could not do the speaker We wish ail our readers could have heard it. We visit all our readers could have .-een him. On Monday Gov. Curtin returned to the scene of his labor. The Coming Winter and the Poor. Winter is always a terror to the poor. By "the poor" we da not moan those who have comfortable homes and an abundance of the necessaries of life, a d who com plain and call themselves poor, because the times arc hard and they cannot speculate, and do busi ness on as grand a scale as they did when times wore good and money plenty. We have too many of this kind in our owu midst, and tbiy would do well to be thankful for what they have, lest a time come when they shall have reason to com plain. When we say the poor ire mean such as are really poor ; men who have to support them ee.ves and their families b, daily labor, and who are out of employment and can get none, and whose families are now suffering or are likely to suffer for want of food, and who from their ina bility to pay ent, shall bo turned out to contend with the biting frosts and the piercing winds oi Winter; such ere the really pour. God only knows what will become of such during the ap proaching Winter. With this Winter will come terrors to them never before known in this land. Never has so many been thrown out of employ ment by the stopping of manufactories of different kinds ; never before have the horrors of civil war visited us, throwing the whole country -into con vulsions and drawing the attention of the humane from the suffering poor to the condition of our ar my ; rever has the merchant been so unwilling to sell lis goods to the poor, who for want of the means with which to pay for them are obliged tc ask credit at his hands.; never has the employer of those who now have work, been so unwilling or so unable to pay his employees, promptly, and at fiiir rates. And all these things, now, are comparatively light to what they will he when Winter shall set in, in earnest--when the very fountains of nature shall appear to be frozen up. God eave the poor ! God save the rich ! Save the poor from wait and starvation! Save the rich from selfishness ! Help the poor to remember that God is the friend of those who trust in him ! Help the rich to remember that their riches were not given them to hoard away while fellow-beings are shivering with cold and dying of starvation ! God help us all to do our duty ; to alleviate as far as possible the sufferings of the unfoTtunate ! 0, how we wish for a fortune, without the pr'de, sel fishness, and miserly spirit, which usually come with it. But we can all do something for the poor. We have them in ourjn idst ; every neighborhood hag them. Lei us do our duty ! Death by Fire. On Monday evening the 7th instant, an accid nt happened in this place which has oaused the death of an old female resident, named Mrs. Nancy Higgftis. The old lady was almost helpless, from age. Her supper was carried to her room and while she was eating, her attendant repaired to another part of the house. When she returned she found tho old lady with the candle upon her knee, her clothes in a flame and portions of her body burned to a crisp. She lived in sgony until Thursday morning, when death put an end to her sufferings. Rev. Odillo Vondergreen- The above named Reverend Gentlemen, has keen induced, in consequence of ill health, to leave Bellefonte and accept a call from Covington, Ky. By this the Catholic eon gregation in this town, loses a worthy and effi eieut pastor, and the community agood and loyal member. Since the breaking out of the rebellion Rev Vondergreen has been among the most active of cur citizens, in rendering aid to the govern ment, not only by encouraging others to go into the service of their country, but by offering to go himself. A Splendid Revolver. One of the finest specimens of "homo manufacture" we have ever seen was shown us the other day, by F. P. Green, of this town. It is a Colt's Improved Revolver, manu factured by Joseph Reed, a machinest, in Miles burg. The barrel is of the finest steel, the iron used was taken from the mines of old Centre. It is most handsomely finished, and throws a ball with great force and accuracy. Would it not be a fine present for Gen. McClellan ? Our Knitting Association. We are glad that the Knitting Association in our town is in active op eration. We hope that societies will be formed in every place where they do not already exist, and that a good report may be madeof Centre county. There seems to be a misunderstanding in regard to who recoives the money for the socks. The money is paid to the Treasurer of the Society, to be applied to the Soldiers' Relief Fund. The general impression appears te be that the money was to be paid to the County Treasurer. This is a mistake, howet er. Some person who pretends to know all about knitting has written a communication for the Philadelphia Press, which may be interesting to our lady readers. The following is the communi cation : "How TO KNIT SOLDIERS' STOCKINGS. Mr. Editor : As our patriotic ladies are at pres ent busily engaged in knittiDg socks for our vol teers, and, as very many more would gladly do the same, but are prevented from want of proper knowledge, will yon oblige an experienced knit ter by giving insertion to the accompanying di rections, and thus ading in the good work ? Set up twenty-eightor thirty stitches on a needle; rib two inches ; knit plain seven inches before setting tho heel ; form the heel by knitting twen ty-three inches each side of the seam, taking off the first stitch without knitting; length of heel, before narrowing, three inches ; narrow the heel by knittiDg ten inches plain knit two together; knit plain to within three of tha ssum ; knit two together ; one plain, and turn the seam ; knit one plain, slip and bind one stitch ; knit plain to within twelve of the end of the needle, slip and bind ; knit ten plain; knit back plain ; knit thus until tha narrowings meet ; knit back on wrong side to seam; then double together on the wroDg side ; knit two together and bind off to one stitch; take up the loops to the lef; hand, and knit five stitches off the instep needle cn to that one ; knit eff the instep needle, and take five off the other end, to add to the other side of the heel, and then take up the loops ; knit one round all plain ; knit three stitches and widen, by taking up a loop between all across, to within seven, of the end of the nocdie ; then narrow on the first side, by knitting two together, and knit off five plain ; kuit instep neeuie plain ; knit five, and narrow on the last needle by slipping and bind ing one stitch ; ihcn widen as before, but only this one round. Now narrow ev ry other round as before, until you have twenty-four stitches on a needle ; knit plain for four inches ; narrow the toe on the needle to the left of instep needle, by knifing one plain slip and bind ; then knit plain to within three stitches of the end of the needle ; knit two together and one plain : knit thus on each needle ; knit three rounus plain, then nar row as before, knitting three plain rounds between each narrowjng ; then knit two rounds between, to twelve stitches on each ncedlo ; narrow every other round to the close." Perhaps tho ladies will he able to understand tho above ; to us it is very clear, indeed. Ail Axe Contract. Mr. Harvey Man has taken a Government contract for furnishing a large num ber of aimy axes. This is right. Centre county has sent a great number of her sous into tho ar my, and it is right that she .-hould come in for a share of tho gorernm'nt patronage. Better axes than those manufactured by Mr. Mann, cannotbo found AA'e are informed thero is a largo force of workmen engaged ou these axes, in order to fill the contra-t as socn as pogsible. Attempt at Robbery. On Monday night, two color ed boys effected an entrance into the cellar of the store of May A Leoh, by cutting the bars of the window. They then a-cendeil the inside cellar way and bored several holes in the doer, with a view to remove the fastening, and get into the principal room. In this they wera unsuccessful. The next commenced operabous upon thecontents of the cellar and succeeded in getting out some sugar, when they wore discovered, arrested and confined in jail. Burnsiaes' Emporium Uur readers will be glad to lear t that notwithstanding the hard times, Thus. Burn sides still keeps on hand a large supply of Leath er, Boots and shoes, bats and caps, t unks, gloves and, indeed so many things that we cannot stop to cnum- rate them. He recceived, this week, from the city a most splended .stock of the above articles. Call and examine. Bankets for Our Army Mr. Kendall of the Spring Creek AA'oolen Factory, has received from the Gov ernment a sample of tho army blanket, with the notice that he wuu.d receive, from tho Govern ment, S6,AO per pair for all the blankets ho can make, coming up to the sample. This is a good factory and Mr. Kendall is just the man to make blankets for the sohliers, for ho is honest, and will make them right. Let the wool growers bring iu the material. Robbery- Some person or persous entered the cellar of Mrs. Lipton of Milesburg, on last Saturday night, and took therefrom every thing eatable. If we are not misinformed, the articles taken are twelve bushels of potatoes, five bushels of apples, •five loaves of bread, five pies, a basket of cakes thirtoen cans of fruit and all the milk and cream in the cellar. If one man got all this it is not particular whether he has employment this AVin ter, or not- Narrow Escape. AA'e aro informed that our friend Spear Gillilanri made a very narrow escape, while on a hunting expedition, a few days since. His gun was accidentally discharged, contents passing through his hat rim, in close proximity with his head. AVe consider that close shooting; but a " miss is as good as a mile" in this case, surely. Removed to New Orleans. AVe are informed that among a number ef the Richmond prisoners, who were recently removed from that place to New Orleans, is Lieut. Hutchinson of this county, a member of Capt. Hess' unfortunate comp any. Blankets and Socks. AA'e are informed that the Gov ernment has advanced the price of army blankets and socks.

THE Balsamic Cordial is entirely a Vegetable prhduction, combining the healing proper lies of the Balsam, with the invigorating quali ties of a Cordial, producing a combination so well adapted to the purpose intendedf that there are but few cases of diseases which will not, at an early period, succumb to its healing and life giv ing proj erties. For ages, has the treatment of pnlmonatv dis eases occupied the greater portion of the attentios of the scientific of the medical world, but none acquiied more eminence in his treatment of these diseases, than the celebratsd Prussian Dr. Hoof land, the originator of the Balsamic Cordial. His life was devoted to the production of remedies that would stand udrivalled. How well he has suc ceeded, the American people are able to judge : and we positively assert, that no preparations that have ever been placed before theui, have confer red the samo amount of benefits on suffering hu manity, or have elicited so many commendations from all classes of society, as the remedies of Dr. Hoofland, prepared by Dr. C. M. Jockson <fc Co., of Philadelphia. The Cordial is designed for a class of diseases more general and more fatal than any other to which the people of this country are subject— those springihg from a " slight cold " That emi nent authority, Dr. Bell, says: " I will not say that Colds are to our inhabitants what the Plague and Yellow Fever are to those of other countries ; but I can aver confidently that they usher in dis ease of greoter complicity and mortality than these latter."

Battle Creek, Mich., Dec. 21st, 1858. PROF. WOOD:—Thee wilt please accept a line to inform thee that the hair on my head all fell off over twenty years ago, caused by a complicated chronic disease, attended with an eruption on the head. A continual course of suffering through life having reduced me to a state of dependence, I have not been able to abtain stuff for caps, neither have I been able to do them up, in conse quence of which my head has suffered extremely from cold. This induced me to pay Briggs <fc Hodges almost the last cer.t I had on earth for a two dollar botile of thy Hair Restorative about tbe first of August last. I have faithfully follow ed the directions and the ba'dspot is now covered with hair thick and black, though short, it is also coming in all over my head. Feeling confident tl at another large bottle would restore it. entirely and permanently, I feel anxious to persevere in its use, and being destitute of mejns te purchase any more, I would ask thee if thee wouldst not be willing to send me an order on thine agents 'or a bottle, and receive to thyself the scripture decla ration —" tbe reward i; to those that ore kind to the widow and the fatherless." Thy friend, SUSANNAH KIIIBY. Ligonier, Noble Co., Ind., Feb. sth, 1859. PROF. 0. J. WOOD : Dear Sir:—ln the latter part of the year 1852, while attending the Stats and National Law School of the State of New York, my hair, frcin a causo unknown to me, com menced falling off very rapidly, so that in the short space of six months, the whole upper part of my scalp was almost entirely bereft of its cover ing, ami much of the remaining portion upon the side and back part of my bead short'y after be came gray, so that you will not be surprised when I tell you that upon my return to the State of In diana, my more casual acquaintances were not so much at a loss to discover the cause of tbe change in my appearance, as my more intimate acquain ces were to recognize me at all. I at once made application to the most skillful physicians in the country, but, receiving no as surance from them that my hair could again bo restored. I was forced to become reconciled to my fate, until, fortunately, in tbe latter part of tho year 1557, your Restorative was recommended to me by a druggist, as being tha most reliable Hair Restorative in use. I tried one bottle, and found fo my great satisfaction that it was producing the desired effect. Since that time, I have used seven dollars' worth of your Restorative, and as a re sult, have a rich coat of very soft black hair, which no money can buy. As a mark of my gratitude for your labor and skill in tbe production of so wonderful an article, I have recommended its use to many of my friends and acquaintances, who, I am happy to inform you, are using it with like effect. Very respect fully. yours, A. M. LATTA, Attorney and Counsellor at Law. Depot, 44 4 Broadway, and sold by all dealers throughout. tbe world.

Scrofulaaud Scrofulous Afrcctious,sucU j an Tumors, Ulcers, Sores, Eruptions, Pimples, Pustules, Hlotclics, Boils, Blaius, and all Sit in Diseases. OAKLAND, Iml., 6th June, 1859. J. C. Aykti & Co. Gents: I feel it eiy duty to ae. knowledge what your Sarsaparilla has done for me. Having inherited a Scrofulous infection, I have suffered lroin it in various ways for years. Sometimes it burs I out in Ulcers ou my hands and arms; sometimes it turned Inward and distressed me at the stomach. Two years ago it broke out on my head and covered my scalp and earn with one sore, which WHS painful and loathsome beyond description. 1 tried many medicines ami several physicians, but without much relief from any thing. In ! fact, the disorder grew worse. At length I was rejoiced J to read in the Gospel .Messenger that you had prepared An alterative (SarsupariiJn), for 1 knew from your reputa- j \iou that any thing you made must be good. 1 sent to j Cincinnati and got it, and used it till it cured me. 1 took it, as you advise, in small doses of a teaspoonful over a month, ami used almost three bottles. New and healthy i skin soon began to form under the scab, which altera i while fell off. My skill is now clear, and I know by my feelings that the disease has gone from my system. You j can well believe that I feel what I am saying when I toll you, that 1 hold you to be one of the ayostloa of the age, and remain ever gratefully. Yours, A I, bit ED 15. T ALLEY.

Beucorrhoea or White*, Ovarian Tumor, Uterine Ulceration, Female Discuses. j Dr. J B. S. Outlining, of New York City, writes ; " I most cheerfully comply with the request of your agent in ! saying I have found your Sarsaparilla a most excellent alterative in the numerous complaints for which w< employ such a remedy, hut especially in Fbnale Disease: of the Scrofulous diathesis. I have cured many inveter ate cases of Leucorrhoea by it, and some whore the com plaint was caused by ulceration of the uterus . The ulcer ation iteelf was soon cured. Nothing within my kuowl edge oquals it for these feuiule derangements." Edward S. Marrow, of Newbury, Ala., writes, "A dun gerous ovarian tumor on one of the females In my family, which had deffed all the remedies we could employ, hat at length been completely cured by your Extract of Sar. eaparilla.

After faking your remedy eight weeks no symptom of tho disease remains." Syphilis and Mercurial Disease. % KEW ORLEANS, 25th August, 1859. DR. J. C. ATBR : Fir, I cheerfully comply with the re quest of your agent, and report to you some of the effects I have realized with your Sarsaparilla. 1 have cured with it, in my practice, most of the com plaints for which it is recommended, and have found its effects truly wonderful in the cure of Venereal and Mer curial Disease . One of my patients had Syphilitic ulcers in his throat, which were consuming his palate and tho top of his month. Your Sarsaparilla, steadily taken, 1 cured him in five weeks. Another was attacked by sec ondary symptoms in his nose, and the ulceration had eaten away a considerable part of it, so that I believe tho disorder would soon reach his brain and kill him. But it yielded to my administration of your Sartmporilla; the ulcers healed, and he is well again, not of course without some disfiguration to his face. A woman who had been treated for the same disorder by mercury was suffering from this poison in her hones. They had become so sen sitive to the weather that on a damp day she suffered ex cruciating pain in her joints and bones, fche, tco, wus 1 cured entirely by your Sarsaparilla in a few weeks. I know from its formula, which your agent gave me, that | this Preparation from your laboratory must be a great j remedy; consequently, these truly remarkable results with it have not surprised me. Fraternally yours, G. V. LARIMER, 51. D. Rheumatism, Gout, Liver Complaint. INDEPENDENCE, Preston Co., Vn.. 6th July, 1859. Da. J. C. AVER: Sir, 1 have been afflicted with a pain- j hil chronic Rheumatism for a long time, which baffled the ! skill of physicians, and stuck to me in spite of all the remedioa I could find, until I tried your Sarsaparilla. One j bottle cured me in two weeks, and restored my general j health so much that 1 am far better than before 1 was attacked. 1 think it a wonderful medicine. J. FKLAM. Jules Y. Getchell, of St. Louis, writes: "I have been afflicted for years with an affection of the Liver , which destroyed my health. I tried every thing, and every thing failed to relieve me; and I have been a broken-down man for some years from no other cause than derangement of the Liver. My beloved pastor, the Rev. Mr. Espy, advised me to try your Sarsaparilla, because he said lie knew you, Riid any thing you made was worth trying. By the bless ing of God it has cured me, and has so purified my blood as to make a now man of me. I feel young again. Tho beet that can be said of you is not half good enough."

A great variety of rages have been reported to us where cures of those formidable complaints have resulted from the use of this remedy, but our space here will not admit them.

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, FOR THE EAFID CURB OP Congha, Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness, Croup, Bronchitis, Incipient Con sumption, and for the Relief of Consumptive Patients /.. iu advanced Stages of the Disease. Thl 1 a remedy so universally known to surpass any other for the cure of throat mid lung complaints, that it is useless here to publish the evidence of its virtues. Its ' unrivalled excellence for coughs and colds, and its truly wonderful cures of pulmonary disease, have made it known throughout the civilized nations of the earth. Few are the communities, or eveu families, among tin w who have not some personal experience of its etfec ts some living trophy in their midst of its victory over tho subtle and dangerous disorders of the throat and lungs. As all know the dreadful fatality of these, disorders, and ss they know, too,-the effects of this remedy, we need not do more than to assure them that it lias now all tho vir tues that it did have when making the cures which have won so strongly upon the confidence of mankind.
