It is therefore the btit advertiting medium. It is a Paper, truly loyal, ably conducted, a first class Localist, and well worthy of the patronage of every 1dj1 citizen in the County. INTERNAL KENENLE ASSESSOR. A'c are pleased to notice the appoint ment of Cpt. Amos II. Martin as Inter- nal Revenue Assessor for the east end of U,a connty, -vice W. W. Davis, removed Captain Maitin is a gentleman well and favorably known to the citizens of Juniata connty. He was twice elected Prothona tary, and by the faithful discharge of Lis public duties, won hosts of friends in all parties. Mr. Kendig could not have made a better selection, or one that would have given more general satisfaction. We con gratulate the public on this appointment, especially as we have long entertained the opinion that loafing around bar-rooms, drinking whisky and playing cards, are not the essential qualifications for the prop er discharge of higt and responsible pub lic duties. i In another column we publish an extract from a private letter, to which we call the attention of the public. . Presi dent Johnson is daily in receipt of peti tions and applications from the aiders and abettors of treason, for the pardon and re lease of JefF. Davis. We do not thick that the loyal people of the country will acquiesce in these petitions. Let us then counteract their bad influence by petition ing the President to give the arch-traitor an early trial, and if guilty, let him re reive the just punishment of his crimes. Who will get np the petition ? BTbe New Orleans Timet, Nov. 5, says, in relation to the rnmors of naval and military preparations, and the stop page of the sales of Government stores : "We have information that we are not at full liberty to disclose, which gives post tive corroboration to these rumors. Un der the circumstances we hesitate not to predict that unless the French troops are removed from Mexico before Christmas there will be active intervention on behalf of the Liberals of that country, and the traditional policy of the United States will be vindicated." . Tknnessf.k is Favor op Death to Traitors. Mr. Trimble, in the Tennes see Senate, on the 13th inst., offered a se ries of resolutions against the Confederate leaders, closing with these words : "That for their bad eminence and great crimes against their fellow men and the United States, Jefferson Davis and his accompli ces have justly forfeited their livee, and deserve, and ought to suffer, the extrnie penalty of the law." Never Forget There is a class of men who would have us forgive and forget the enormities of the late rebellion. They would have us take Lee, and Davis, and Turner, and all the others whose cruelties made humanity shudder, to our hearts and our confidence and bury the past in oblivion. Forget the past, whils the graves of thirteen thousand starved and murdered men at Andersonville are a perpetual protest against the enormous crimes of the rebell ion ! Forget the past, while thousands of women and children are among us who have been widowed and orphaned by trea son t Forget the past, with a depot of three millions of dollars daily reminding us of the cost of preserving the Union against the foulest conspiracy ever hatch ed by men ! No ! the past must not be forgotten. While Liberty lives, the great rebellion must daily be made more odious, and the instruments of it, who murdered our friends and relatives must be consign ed to a memory of tJcdying infamy. Such crimes must not be glossed over, to break ont again at the first opportunity ; but let then be burried under such a load of reprobation that they thall know no rfsurre-jtiou. , JOHNSON AND THE LOYAL PEO PLE Johnson's plan of "reconstruction," as it becomes better understood by tht pub lie, recommends itself more favorably to the country. It is evident that the ex pectations tf the Democracy art not to be fulfilled. President Johnson is not goin to throw open wide the government armors, and invite the men from whose hands the blood of our brethren has bcarcely been washed, to enter in and oc cupy tbe places of power and dictate the policy of the nation. Johnson is not a man learned in the clasaica he ia not Talleyrand in diplomacy : but, bettet than all these for these times, he is a man of strong common sense and common sense revolts at the idea of bringing in men whose rebellious braict and hearts ate not yet cool from the passions that fired them, to shape the legislation of the country. Come what may, the men who strove to destroy our government, must not be en trusted with its admlslration This is. the first and greatest consideration. Rather than run such a frightful risk a risk that would be almost certain national ruin let us have the seceding States kept out for years. Oar perils may take any shape but that, and the patriotism and energy of the loyal American people might overcome of torn them aside i but with the Cobbs, the Brcckenhdges, the Wigfalls, and the Toombs in power, ' and the Seymours, Yallandighatns, Reeds, and Blacks, to inflame their bad convic tions, we might well giro up all as lost. The one great, overshadowing danger the country has now to guard against, is just this thing of Southern traitors and Northern sympathizers getting into power. Let any loyal man stop for a moment, and reflect over the fulfillment of such a calamity. Yet it h a danger that is so eminent, as to acquire our most earnest attention and effort to avert it. The South re-admitted, would, we fear, come into Congress with a delegation almost unanimous for those measures which are felt by loyal men to be destructive to our government; and they would have the co-operation of erery modern Democrat that they could meet from the North in our halls of national legislation. President Johnson and the people of the North should see to it that this calam ity does not come upon ut. From the South, we should have the conqueror's unquestioned right security for the fu ture ; and from the North, we should have no more cringing, Coppeihead doughfaces, going to Congress to dishon or our section and endanger the best in terests of the country. This duty of the people should be kept before them, so that by next fall, when they choose their national representatives, they shall choose men whose devotion to the true interests of the Union is unquestioned. The Post Office Department. " No Department in the Government is more immediately connected with the pros perity of the country, than that which is engaged in the mail service. A prosper ous country exhibits itself in the opera tions of the Post-office Department as fully and as completely as the manage ment of those operations' establish the ability of the Postmaster General. Re ferring to this subject, the Washington Chronicle says that on the summing up the accounts of the Post Office Depart ment for the fiscal year ending June 30, 18C5, the excess of receipts over expen ditures is found to be more than $850,- 000. This is the first time in the history of that Department that so favorable a financial exhibit has been made, and though a portion of this retrenchment is due to the increased number of letters written and sent to and from the armies in the field a considerable share of the credit is due to the economical and busi ness-like manner in which the affaire of the Post Office Department have lately been conducted, and to the efficiency of the officers who have been engaged in the mail service. There is good reason to be lieve that after civil government is fully established in the Southern States, and that country is occupied by enterprising men from the North, the mail service of the whole country will be made self-sustaining. Under the system inaugurated by the present Postmaster General such a result is almost certain. Postmaster General Denison has given to his Department his entire and immedi ate supervision, lo tnis tact to tne economy whieh he has instituted in the bureaus of his Department, as well as to the devolving prosperity of the country, may we fairly attribute the unparalelled result of a surplus in the receipts over the expenditures of the Post Office Depart ment.

It may be considered a curious fact, ery surprising indeed, that the whole amount of losses in the United States Navy during the Rebellion do not sum np more than the record of mortality in one of the many skirmishes which took place between the outer lines of our ar mies during the war. It is stated that the causalities in the Navy for four years amount to but 1406 men killed, 1638 wounded. The prisoners were f ery few in number. We lost some in the opera tions against Charleston, in thn . attempt to take Sumter by assault, and a few in some cases where ships were blown np by torpedoes, but usually the enemy made little by captures of Federal prisoners upon Naval account. There were 75)000 men in the Navy, sailors and marines, and yet they went through the war, might almost be said, with impunity. When we remember the fierce actions in which those ships appeared, the terrible cannonades of New Orleans, Mobile, Fort Fisher and Charleston, the long and tedious operations at Vicksburg, "Island No. 10," and at variont ports, forts, and batteries upon the Mississippi and its affluents, upon tbe Atlantio coast and in the bays and streams emptying in to it, we may well be surprised at the ac tual return of the harm that was dose, and be thankful that our brave sailors were preserved from many miseries which were the portion of the combatants on land. For this result the Navy was par tially indebted to the efficiency of iron clad ships, which, whiie possessing the qualities of coats of mail to preserve the lives of the defenders, were the better fitted for audacious and bold operations against the enemy. Rut it must not be forgotten that a valuable portion of the Navy, and the largest in number, was composed of wooden vessels, and that those frail ships, under the command of Uuch officers as Fabragct, Dcpont, Dahloren, Foote, Davis and Pouter, were manoeuvred with bravery and skill, which seemed to be most successful where it was the most defiant of imminent dan ger. Wooden ships like those that were taken into action at Forts St. Philip and Jackson, and upon the Mississippi from the forts up to New Orleans, had never before been subjected to a furious fire equal to that which the Union fleet then encountered. Wooden ships never before ran such risks as were dared in Mobile bay when the whole fleet steamed in, de fying the cross-fires of Form Morgan, Gaines, and Powell. In our record of naval affairs we have mnch eause to be thankful for the goodness of that Great Being who preserved and protected us, and gave us the victory. Letter from General Sherman. At a Union meeting in New Jersey, during the late campaign, Gen. Kilpat- rick read the following characteristic let ter from Gen. Sherman. As quite a num ber of Copperheads in this locality have been harping about Gen. Sherman going to be their next candidate for President, we publish it for their especial benefit. It will be seen that he has no amnity with the Democracy : Gen. Judson Kilpatrick. Dear Sir : I have observed with interest your political conflict in New Jersey. It is re ally provoking, hardly worthy of a serious thought, but rather of satire and ridicule, tbe squirming of the politicians called Copperheads, who opposed the war from every conceivable motive. Some from sheer cowardice ; others to oppose a poli tical party, borne because they thought we could not whip the South, and, now that is reduced to a demonstration, have hard work to explain their conduct, even to themselves. 1 have no patience with that class of men, and believe the people of the South have more respect for us who belabored them soundly, than the Copper heads, who, nominally their friends, led them deeper and deeper into trouble. W. T. SHERMAN, Maj. Gen. No Mork Pardons for Leading Traitors. It is a fact that the great majority of those pardoned by the Presi dent are a class who, while they were iden tified with the movements against the Gov ernment, were not leading traitors were not in a potation to control the tendencies of treason. The President har now de clined to pardon any more military or civil leaders of treason. This is an important fact. The spirit which first prompted the pardon of some of the leading men in the South, was alike patriotic and generously manly;' but the spirit in which Executive clemency has been appreciated by many of those who were the first to enjoy its ad vantages, has doubtless induced the Pres ident to prove to this class that he is not unconscious of their low ingratitude. J9The official aggregate rote for Auditor General, including the army vote, is as follows : Hartranft, Union- 237,816 Davis, Dem 215,292 Ilartrsmit's majority-. ..'..I. 22,521 Correspondence of the Sentinel. Mr Editor, Dear Sir .wTour corres pondent has anxiously looked for some popular response, from the loyal States, to tbe memorials- ana petitions lor me release or pardon of Jefferson Davis, presented to and pressed upon tne attention of our President, by those who were his (Davis) associates and abettors i& rebellion, against the best and most magnanimous of govenneutf. It u surprising that no eecnteraetion has been taken by the loyal women and men of the country, that no petitions for bringing that man to trial, and condemnation, if guilty, have rolled np from the people, giving expression to their feelings and sentiments. Unless these applications, emenating from the South ire considered an insult, only fit to be met by silent contempt Would it not, however, Mr. Editor, be proper to call the attention of the com munity to this matter, lest our silence be construed into acquiescence, With the pur port and spirit of those pleas for mercy from those whose handb are still red with the best blood of the nation they sought to destroy.

It is not nnfrequently that swine sud den!y sicken end refuse to eat This may result from a variety of causes. Sows, after litering, are frequently averse to all kinds of food, exhibit symptoms of great debility, and unles speedily relieved of the malady will die. We hare known many valuable animals lost in this way, when a very slight knowledge on the part of the owners would have enabled them jo obviate all unpleasant results. When an animal refuses to eat, becomes indolent and emaciated, and manifests the usual symptoms of disease peculiar to the swinish herd, bleed the animal freely, by drawing a sharp knife across two or three of the bars in the roof of the mouth. Should recoveiy not immediately succeed the operation, let it be repeated. Should the effusion of blood be thought too copi aus, rye meal, or soot from the stove fun nel, or back of the chimney, may be put into the mouth. These substances, when moistened by the blood and salva, form a sort of viscid and tenacious paste, which gathers naturally over the lips of the wound, and consequently prevents all furthur efflux of blood.

The Cum berland county Almshouse, situated two miles east of this town, was burned this morning. The furniture was mostly saved, and the inmates all escaped. The fire is supposed to have originated from the heat ers. The loss is partially covered by in surance in the Franklin Insurance Com pany of Philadelphia. The fire compa nies from Carlisle did efficient service in preserving the out-buildings of the insti tution. ' JiL. news Items. The Republican majority in New Tork State is estimated at 27,090.
