DROWNED, —The body ,of Patrick McCarty,
a resident of Millville bor.ougb, Cambria
county, was found in the First Dam, below
Johnstown, on Tuesday afternoon /wt. The
deceased has been missing for several days.
A NEW croasing has been laid from the Jones
House to liryeth's corner. It supplies a want
that has been felt by all of our citizens who
are in the habit of crossing Market street at
that point. There are other places in town
where the crossings have almost disappeared.

and an were delighted. The manager has
been very fortunate during the present season,
as the hall has been well filled every night.
The entertainment of this evening will be the

THE ladies engaged in getting up the
Thihnksgiving Dinner for the sick and wound
ed soLdiers at Camp Curtin Hospital, hereby
tender their sincere thanks to all those who
so kindly end liberally aided them in their
efforts to cheer and comfort those suffering
men, and made them • feel that though tar
from home and loved ones, they still had
friends who honored the brave defenders of
the "Dear old Flag."
PROTRACTED Marrrim.—A protracted meet
ing is in progress in the Ridge Avenue M. E.
Church. Rev. Mr. Hilinger is pester of the
congregation. He is a young man of great
ability, and his labors promise to be crowned
with success. A number of penitents have
presented themselves at the altar of prayer
since the meeting commenced, and there is
every indication that an extensive revival will
take place.
%toma GRAPES. —Some of the 2 ory Organs
an Ws vicinity are indulging themselves in
-advance, with flings at the approaching Legis
lature, boLdly declaring that for all the good
that is done by this body, "they (tories) would
not care if the session were postponed until
1966." Sour grapes The Legislature in
Loth its branches, is against the cops; hence,
of course, it can do no "good "-for Southern
treason or Northern sympathizers.

THE steam cracker bakery of Jacob P.
Haehnlen, at the corner . of Cherry and River
411eys, is well worth a visit. The work is
.done with a rapidity that is astonishing. The
machinery runs as regularly as clock-work.--
A large number of workmen are employed,
and business is conducted on an extensive
male. The attention of our readers is di
rected to Mr. Haehnlen's card in another
ncolumn.
VoLItriROAD ACCIDENTS.—On Thursday after
moon last, a man named Super, was killed at
White Hall. A car loaded with lumber pass
ed over hie breast, and nearly severed his
right arm from his body, killing him in
stantly.
Jonathan flare, a brakesman on a freight
train, was killed at the Gap, Lancaster coun
ty, on the same day. From some unknown
cause he fell from the bumper of his car, and
a portion et' the train passed over him.
OEN. BAETILea A. SZEAFEEE died at his
residence, in Lancaster, yesterday. Deceased
was well known here and throughout the
State. He was a prominent member of the
Whig party, And in 1851-2 was elected to the
State Legislature. In 1857 he was sent to the
State Senate. Daring the early part of the
rebellion he was on General Keim's stall, and
was with General Patterson's command in the
Shenandoah. During that campaign his
health suffered, and never fully recovered.

GIUMBEESBITECF. —Letters have been receiv
ed from some ladies in Chambersburg, who
have been looking into the wants of the col
ored population there, and they say their des
titution is "appalling," in view of the ap
proaching severe weather. We beg the in
habitants of this city to continue their kind
ness to Chambersburg, by sending to Dr.
DeWitt's, Front street, between Pine and
south, any old clothing or bedding which will
be suitable to the poor people, and it will be
forwarded immediately.
"CITY" PASSENGER RAILWAY fl WILLIAMS
POET.—The citizens of Williamsport, Pa., are
certainly an enterprising people. We learn
that railroad tracks are being laid through
the principal streets of the town, and oars,
similar to those used in Philadelphia and
elsewhere, are to be placed upon these tracks
as soon as completed. Williamsport is far in
advance of Harrisburg in this particular, and
bids fair to become a city at an early day.
Harrisburg should have street railroads, and
if they are not soon introduced the State
Capital will be added to the list of "old fogy",
TEE Secretary of War has fixed the mini
mum height far the liiihmteer service at five
feet, instead of five feet three inches, as here,
tofore established.
OF* THE Truck.:—The mail train from Pitts
burg, due here at noon to-day, had not ar
rived at the time we put our paper to press.
We are informed that it was off the track, but
would probably arrive here by six o'clock.
ALMOST A FATAL CASE OF POISONING.—The
family of A. J. Koller, an employee of the
Northern Central Railway, residing in Shrews
bury, Xprk- county, consisting of wife patd,th;ee
children, were poisoned froth eatingcheese at
tea on Sunday evening, the 20th ult. The
cases would have proved fatal in a very short
time had not medical aid been promptly ap
plied. They are now considered out of dan
ger. ,
A GOOD SUBSTITUTE FOP:BUCKWHEAT CAKES.
To three pints of warm water add a dessert
spoonful of salt, three table spoonfuls of good
yeast, and stir in middlings (course flour) to
the consistency of a thick batter: let it stand
over night, and if a little sour in the morning,
add a little soda dissolved in warm water, and
make as you would any other pan-cakes.'
They are a nice, healthy dish for breakfast
and not so' injurious as buckwheat. Give
them a trial and be convinced of it.
Tan LETTER N.—lt is to be wondered at,
after examining the list of the signers of the
Declaration of Independence and finding there
the names of Baldwin, Dayton, Dickinson,
Franklin, Gilman, Hamilton, Johnson, Lang
don, Livingston, Madison, Mifflin, Paterson and
Wilson; and then turning to the Constitution
and reading there the names of Braxton,
Franklin, Hopkinson, Huntington, Harrison;
Jefferson, Livingston, Morton, Middleton, Mc-
Kean, Nelson, Penn, Sherman, Stockton,
Thornton, Walton, Wilson and Witherspoon;
and then looking at the names of those who
have filled the Presidential 'chair, embracing
Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Van Buren,
Harrison, Buchanan and Lincoln, that the
contest should now have been between Lin
coln and Johnson on the one side, and M'Clel 7
hin and Pendleton on the other.
CONDENSED APPLE SuTcr.,—The juice of itP
ples, or sweet cider, before it has undergone
anyfiermentation, may be boiled down to one;
seventh of its original bulk, without losing
its flavor or any good quality. It has no taste
of boiled cider, but is a beautiful amber col
ored jelly, pleasant to eat in its simple state,
particularlY. ea a tart sauce, with poultry,
game, or other meek.. It makes excellent
pies and tarts, and may, in fact, he applied
to all those uses to which dried apples or
boiled cider are employed, and is much supe
rior. Beside this, by the addition of six times
its bulk of whter(the quantity originally with
drawn) wemay have sweet cider again, which
will undergo fermentation, as it would have.

cider, go ti.l.r,quel all the changes, until it
ultimately becomes 49. F 4 eider.
AGRIMILMIIILAL STATISTICS. —From the cen
sus returns for 1860, which have just bean
printed, it appears that the State of Illinois
produced the largest quantity of wheat and
Indian corn of any State in the Union, viz:
23,837,023 bushels of wheat, and 115,174,777
busJo)e of Indian corn.

CORNER LOUNGING.—We are pleased to
learn that the police have determined to break
up the crowds which every evening congregate
on some of the street corners of our city.
The practice has become intolerable, and
should be abated. Persons doing busines in
the vicinity of these assemblages, are greatly
annoyed by them. Their windows are bid
from view, and the entrance to their stores
crowded so much as to prevent the free ingress
and egress of customers. Every man who has
a wife, a daughter, or sister, is interested in
having these crowds broken np. Insulting
remarks are frequently made within the hear
ing of persons going by, and women, and chil
dren cannot' pass without being offended by
blasphemy end obscenity. Some of the men
who are in the habit of standing on the cor
ners make pretensions to respectability, and
would be ashamed to be arrested for nuisance.
All such are informed that if they persist in
their course, they will be made examples of.
Every lover of order and decency will be
pleased to learn that the police are about to
disperse these crowds of blackguards which
nightly occupy the street corners to the annoy
ance and inconvenience of business persons
and pedestrians.—Lancaster Repress.
We hope our Mayor will give similar in
struction to his police. The corner lounging
nuisance is just as bad here as it is-MLitt:mas
ter, and the Mayor has it in his power to
abolish the same. If the Mayoi knew how
troublesome these corner loafers are he would
not hesitate to abolish it at once.
PROFESSOR SIBBET. —We understand that
Professor Sibbet has already recoiled a large
number of calls for WHair Restorative.. The
Professor's method Of9feating the hair is, in
our judgment, founded.upon scientific princi
ples. Mr. S. has been in our State,for more
than a year, during which time he has visited
most of our large towns and cities, and has treat
ed thousands of cases; and he claims to have
been successful in every case. We see no reason
why the scalp ca of be treated as successfully
as any other part of the body; and it is fo,the
scalp that the Professor direpts his efforts, for
if the scalp can be made heality, a vigorous
growth of hair must bathe result: This Ile- .
storative can be obtained from no one but*.
S., as his mode of practice makes it necessary.
for him to see the party. He can be found
for a short time at the Jones House.

operations upon the bowels from taking any

medicinal virtues are expended entirely upon

.I±lAumsaurta, Feb. Bth, 1864.
C. A. BAnivAnr—Dear Sir: I have used Brown's
Bronchial Troches, Wistar's I f ozenges, and
other preparations for hoarseness and throat
troubles, and, in comparison with them all,
can cheerfully commend your own as a most
admirable specific for public speakers and
singers, in cases of hoarseness, coughs and
colds. I have found them serving in time of
need, most effectually.
Yours truly, T.•a ROBINSON,
Pastor of N. S. Presbyterian Church.

value of Banuvart's Troches.

To 0. A. Bzourvnar--.Dear Sir: .rn the habit
of speaking very frequently, and in places
where the vocal organs are very much taxed,
I have found the need of some gentle expec
torant, and that want has been supplied in
your excellent Troches.
I consider them very far superior to any
Lozenges that I have ever used, in removing
speedily that huskiness of the voice arising
from its too frequent use, and impairing the
effectiveness of the delivery of public addres
ses, Yours, &c.,
JNO. WALKER JACKSON,
Pastor of the Locust St. Methodist Church
To C. A. EANNVAET—Dear : Having used
your Troches, I am free to say they are the
best I have ever tried, and take great pleasure
in recommending them to all persons afflioted
with sore throat or huskiness of voice, arising
from public speaking or singing.
