We find the following notice of the deith of o
former resident of this county in the limion
(Iowa) Register. The deceased was a brother
of Col. ,A.Lmos Maims, of this place :
Died at his residence in - Marion, lows,--April
19, of paralysis, Brig.-Gen. Tsai. J. Malisat,
- Lie was horn in 1810, in Bradford 'county, Pa.
He Wpithe second of eight children, four of
whoinare still living—a brother and sister, in
Pennsylvania, another brother who resides In
Mt. Vernon, and Aluntaw J. of Marion.
After his father's death, 'his undo, Sawn
Mans, Governor of Pennsylvania, procured
for the subject of this notion a cadetship at West
Point.
and at the age of 17, he entered the Mili
tary Academy July 4, 1828, where be remained
until he graduated, June 8, Mel. In July fol
lowing, ho entered the services' Second Lieu
tenant in the Fourth Infantry. lie remained
in the army until March 31 18;M, when he re
signed and engaged in civil engineering until
the time of the Florida war in 1837, when be re
entered the army and served as volunteer
against tho Florida Indians as Lieutenant and
Adjutant of a regiment of ,Pennsylvania whin
tars, from October, 1837,40 Amal, 1838. While
in the field he was elected Major of the regi
ment to fill a vacaney, but the regiment was
disbanded on the expiration of its term. of ser
vice, before his commission was received. (In
somPof the records the stiriatian name is erro
noonsly entered as "Wat.r ; ind " Jcany'instead
of "THOME."
At the close of the Florida war he was engag
ed by a New Orleans Railway and Canal Com
pany, as civil engineer. While in their employ
among the swamps of Louisiana, his health be
came unpaired and he returned to his home in
Pennsylvania, where he was confined about
year with sickness.
On his recovery he came to Marion, in MO,
and was engaged in 'government s u rvey and
civil engineering until the time of the Mexican
war.
Early in the winter of 1846-7, when it was un
derstood that one regiment of volunteers was
apportioned to, or at least would be accepted
from lowa (then a Territoryl, ho cordmenced
raising'ntid drilling volunteers with a fair ex
pectation of being one of the field officers of the
regiment, but the ten (during war) U.S. regi
ments being substituted for State Volunteers,
these volunteer organizations were discontinued
and the appointment of Moors ' thrown nomi
nally into thehands of the President, but real
ly into the hands of the Congressional delega
tions instead of being loft to an election by the
men. •
Being of the wrong politics (s wing) to expect
a commission under such circumstances, in the
state of party feeling then existing in biers, ho
determined (through considerations readily an
predated by any one who has been zealously
engaged in rauung volunteers) to servo in the
war then Whig waged against a foreign nation.
In April, 1817, ho entered the ranks as a private
soldier in Company K, 15th Infantry, one of the
(during war) regiments of which Ozo. W. Mon-
GAX was Colonel. In May following ho was ap
pointed Sergeant Major of the regiment, and in
this capacity served in the battles of Contreras,
Churnbusco, Moline del Bay, and in the main
assaulting column on the castle of Chepultepec,
and the success of that undertaking, in the
opinion of many, was duo to his personal skill
and bravery more than to that of any other
man. For his meritorious conduct in the bat;
ties around the city of Mexico, ho received an
,appointment as Lieutenant in the Second Begi
meut U.S. Dragoons, , which was promptly de
cline& He remained in service until after peace .
was concluded, and the regiment disbanded Au
gust 7, 1848.•
At the close of the Mexican-car he returned
to Marios, and was united in marriage with
Miss SARAH GRAY. He resumed the practice of
civil engineering, until the recent rebellion,
when on the fi rst of Jane, 1861, having received
the appointment of Additional Paymaster, Mu
ted States Army, he proceeded to Washington,
D.C., and entered.upon duty..
November 27, 1861, ho received notice of his.
appointment as ,Brigadier-General U.B. Vols.,
and reported In hccerdmice with instructions to
Maj.-Gen. Kai roil, commanding the Depart
ment of Missouri.
In April, 1862, he reported to Major-General
Girsivr, was assigned to the command 'of the
/bath Division of the Army of Tennessee (vice
Brig.-Gen. Pnravriss, captured at the battle of
Shiloh), and remained in command of this di
vision durin g the ridge of Corinth, until the reb
.els under • 13/1&IIII,E0ABD evacuated . that place.
Ho was assigned to the command of the post
at Corinth, during the expedition to Inks, and
had erected, under the superintendence °leapt.
F. E. Puna, U.S. Engineers, the batteries,
which subsequently served such impertantpur
pose during the battle of Corinth. He continu
ed in the service, doing the duty of a Major-
General most of the time until the close of the
war, when be was honorably discharged from
the service (together with 114 other general
officers), announced in general orders No. 135,
from the War Department,. August 24, 1865.
The entire period, of his service in the U.S. Mili
tary, including regular army and folanteer, was
about thirteen years.
Two years ago hist Juno he received a par
alytic stroke, which very much impaired both
mind and body. In July last he received a sec
ond, which con fi ned him to the house, and much
of the. time to his bed. Monday previous to his
death be received a third stroke, and en Tees;
(lay about 6, p.m., he expired.
Thus paned away one who had done g wl
service for our country in her hour of nee,
bravo soldier and skillful general on the fide '
battle. As a man and a soldier he reminds us
of Gen. Geo. H. Tuowas (whose decease preced
ed his own only a few days) more than any oth
er army officer. He was an esteemed citizen,
I a.kind husband, and an affectionate father.
Of unassuming and retired &position, ho
bht seldom referred either to the stirring scenes
!or army life through which be hil t dassed, or to
his own views arid feelings hire to personal
religion, beyond the privacy of is own family.
He was always armfuls to have his children
observe the Sabbath, attend church and Sab
bath-school. And ho bad when in health ex
pressed to his companion the wish that he was •
a christian. But towards the close of his life,
the state of his mind was such as to unfit him
for any satisfactory conversation:
Ho was buried in the Marion Cemetery, April
21. The funeral services were conducted by
the Rev. Amet. B. Mszensu., and were attend
ed by many of those who bad been his corn
panions.hi arms, and &large number of e ibize nil.
He leaves a wife and three children and many'
friends to mourn his loss.
Emoi OF THE BR&D
FORD Itzronzza : I was much pleased with the
Rev. Mr. Mares sketch, lately published in
your paper, of the Moravian Missions in old=
time, and especially of those located in airs
county, as well as those of .11ethlehem and Naza
reth. I much hope the proposed plan of a
monthly or semi-monthly publication to contain
gleanings of the past, both in regard to men
and things in Northern Pennsylvania, and else
where in the State, will be carried out by our
now Historical Society. We think nothing of
paying two dollars for a new novel at any time ;
now take the monthly parts of such a publica
tion as the " Olden Time" [I am improvising a
title for instance], might easily , be made, for
two dollars per annum, and we Weald place up•
on our book-shelves volumes growing in value
every hour, and which would in fact become
heir-looms in every family. in Northern Penn
sylvania. Besides contributing matter for its
pages freely, let any one whomay undertake it,
put ma down for ten copies per annum, payable
in advance. " • •
Mr. Cairr has exhausted all the important
features of our local Moravian history, but I
beg to add a memorandum deriifed from my
own Note-Boot, containing facts not wholly
Without interest to the careful student of our
hisfory :
There never was any settled affiliation between
the Moravian, when in Georgia, and Warr:-
new; but in the year ,1741, on his return to
Pennsylvinis from &Murrill', he was desirous
of forming'a settlement of free blacks in the in
tenor of Pennsylvania, and accordingly pur
chased two tracts of land, each containing four
thousand acres; but after having made the
purchase, finding the white population unfriend
ly to his views, ho disposed of the land and Im.
provementii to the "United Brethren," who, in
the year 1748, held worship in a MULE erected
by Warrarremn, and from that circumstance
called the place Bethlehem. This tract is about
one-quarter of a mile wide on each side of the
clear white waters of the " Leehai." On the
Aber tract they built a town called Nazareth,
nine miles distant. •
The European settlers were in those days w
and thinly scattered around them.

Towanda, Apr? 28,.1870.
RIM& • EDITOR—Sir: As you are
aware, we have been doing a Merchant Tailor
ing business in Towanda for four months, and
did not advertise for two reasons. First,
,we
had more business than we could attend to
with the amount of assistance we had, (but
now we have enlarged our establishment and
added to our force to meet the demand).
Secondly,
.wo thought . the best advertisement
was Clothinfrby us and worn by our cus
tomers, but ' •everY day told by some ono
that be-did not know until to-day there was
such a firm, we concluded that for the benefit
of those we are still unknown to, of calling your
press to aid us in informing them who we are,
where we and wluit we are doing. Our ,
risme is EL & Co., we do business in
No. 4 Griffiths and Pollens block, Bridge street.
We keep for sale *large stock of Cloths, Cassi
merest, and Vestings (and trimmings to make
them up with) both foreign and domestic. We
nuinufacture clothing for men and boys wear
to order only, in any and every style desired
by our patrons, and at living rates. We keep
ourselves posted in "the styles," and are pre
pared, it you wish it, to eve you the ultra of
fashions. For farther putculars call at " The
Merchant Tailoring Store, " No. 4 Griffiths and
Fattens Block, Midge Stviet, Towanda, Pa.
