Tall Timotht. Mr. Jacob Hoover of Law
rence township, left at our office several dtiya
since, one of the tallest stalks of timothy we
have seen this season. It measures 6 feet 3
inches ; and, we presume, will bo bard to beat.
Snake Bittkn. We have been informed
that on Sunday last, a little boy 5 or 6 years
old, son of George VVelser of Boggs township,
was bitten by a copper-head snake on the an
kle. Remedies were immediately applied and
the boy is doing well.
The Weather. During the past month the
weather has been exceedingly dry. In fact,
the grass was drying on the stalk, and the
corn and buckwheat were suffering much. On
Sunday last, however, we had a fine rain,
which has revived all the growing crops ;: and
with a favorable season wo way yet have
a good yield.
Wanted. Fifty men to enlist in, the- West
Branch Greys, to rendevous at Clearfield on
short notice. This company has been accept
ed by the Governor under a requisition from
the President for ten additional regiments
.Now is the time. Bo quick. The country
calls to arms. All desirous of enlisting will
please report themselves immediately at Clear
field, to Z. C. M'Cu.llougb.,.Capt.,
orL. R. MerrH. Jst LieU.
Pkrsonal. We hereby tender emi thanks
to several gentlemen at a neighboring Post-
office, for their unceasing eflorts to get non
paying subscribers to return the- Journal. If
there are "more of tho samo sort left" in tho
we-ighborhood, we ask you gentlemen, to con
tinue your ettoits in our behalf, as we save
money by having all such subscriptions stop
ped. Privalt. (in a corner, and thumb in
button hole.) Wouldn't they, however, be
acting like honest men if they would pay the
amount they owe ns 1
A 'Skrimmi3u." Wo learn that a small
9krimmishM came off on Chestnut Hill, one
- day last week, between a female and male bi
ped. The first we shall name Union and the
other .Secesh." Seccsh entered the culinary
department of Union, and made use of some
language that was not palatable to the latter.
Words passed, Unioa seized a stick of stove
wood and hit Secesh. on the top-knot. Se
cesh springs to the door, but before he could
make his exit, the store wood hit again."
Out he goes, down the yard, into the road, on
the way singing "hurrah for Union!" Once
on the road, Secesh thought he was safe, but
Union was not satisfied and let the stove
wood fly, which struck Secesh oi the neck
and cut him. Secesh now retreated in the
best ortfer possible; and no doubt concluding
that the 'Unlon was still safe." So ended
the "skrimmish" of Chestnut Hill.

.LETTER F30M CALIP. EIDDLEJ . :
1 ; ' Gkefscasti-k Pa.; July 17,' 18G1.
ITd. "Journal," Sir: Just in proportion
a the Army increases m number, so do news
papercirrespondeuts also increase in number;
and as I have not as yet seen any correspond
ence from our quarters to your paper I thought
proper to drop you' a few lines.
We left Camp Curtin on Friday last, at
noon, and passed, over the Cumberland Valley
II. It. tottvis- place a. distance of, 61 miles,
where we arrived at 7 in the evening. We at
once proceeded to the place of encampment
which is situated one half mile south of town
in a splendid grove. Ilero we pitched our
tents. The place is a delightful one, and pre
sents a striking contrast to the monotonous,
cheerless Camn Curtin. The sturdv oaks un
der which our tents are planted afford us shel
ter from the sweeping tempest and pelting
rain; and when the sun pours down upon us
ins rays of blazing splendor, these same mon
archs of the forest servo as a canopy to shield
us from his melting powers. A,nd. surroundf
ing the camp you, are greeted with scenery
of the most delightful that eve charmed, the
eye. The beautiful fields of golden grain, the
verdant fields of corn, the lofty towering Al
leghenjea. in. the distant, with their beauteous
crest amid, the clouds, all render our camp
pleasing and agreeable. Again, we are sur
rounded by friends the most kind and gener
ons, who take every opportunity to make us
comfortable. Provisions of the best are
brought into camp by the basket full, and
lreely distributed, among the men.
Our oUlcers are also kind, agreeable and
gentlemanly. Col. W. Yf . Rickets, the com
mander of the Regiment, is worthy of the
greatest praise for the obliging manner in
which he treats his inferiors in the ranks, and
the character and qualification of other supe
rior officers, are also worthy of commenda
tionl But as it is contrarj' to general orders
for privates to extol or dispraise the oflicers,
I shall refrain from doing so, and shall con
tent myself by silently appreciating their con
duct.
Nothing of any particularly exciting na
tiiio has occurred since our debut here. We
have been out several times on scouting ex-
cui'sions throughout the country, with the ex
pectation ol meeting some friends, of Jeff. Da
vis, but were unsuccessful in our enterprise
Once or twice the guards on th railroad
and telegraph line have been fired upon ; and
on ono instance, a shot was actually fired into
our camp, hut on no occasion has any fatal in
jury been done, yet it shows that we are not
altogether cleansed of secessionists from our
midst.
Our situation is 10 miles south of Cham
bersburg, 10 north of Ilagerstown, and 4 from
the Maryland line. How long we shall re
main, bere I am unable to say, but not long,
as we are under marching orders now, and are
only awaiting the arrival of improved mus
kets, which will reach here in a few days.
The most cheering news greets us from ev
ery portion of the U. S. Army, and the men
here express every anxiety to share in the
good work that is going on, and the glories
which crown the results of their labors. The
men here are with five 0 six exceptions all
well ana in gooa spirits, anM "ready to march
at a moments notice'
With the above I must close for the pres
ent, with the promise of giving you a more
interesting letter on another occasion.
You, &c a. w. c.
We thank our corespondent for his letter,
and hope- be wiH not forget us in the future.
We are at all times glad to receive informa
tion from ojir volunteers. Will not others
follow the example of our friend G. W. C, and
write us a letter? Weekly if possible. Ed.
Westerxtort, Md., July 24, 1861.
Friend Row : I reached this place on the
evening of the 122d. At Hopewell I met Col.
McCalmot'slOth Regiment Pa. R. V. C,
which was about to return to Hopewell. Xte
ColoueMiad been ordered to Cumberland, but
had just received orders to return and pro
ceed to Ilagerstown. The peple of Cumber
land were much cUsap,po,irUed wbeH I told
them of the return of the 10th, as they had
been anxiously waiting for it. At C. I found
but one company of the 5th, the balance hav
ing been ordered to Xew Creek, but on arri
ving there I found that they had left just half
an hour previous for this place. Katie's Ri
fle Regiment was at .New Creek, but I did not
see Capt. Irvin, as he and his company were
out on a scout. I however, saw II. I). Patton,
R. F. Ward (now hospital steward), John W.
Uaslett and several other persons from Clear
field. On arriving at this place, I found some
changes Lieut. Larrimcr is now Captain of
company E. (Centre Guards); Lieut. Bigler,
Quarter-master of the oth ; W.M. Bahan Ass't
Quarter-master; and David lietts, Clerk.
Capt. Lorraine had been left without an of
ficer. Private A- M." Smith, is no.w 1st Lieu
tenant of the Cadets. Lieut. Rigler still holds
his position in the company, as the other is
considered only a special duty. Westernport
is in Maryland and Piedmont in Virginia.
The stream being very narrow here most per
sons take the two towns for the same place.
They are situated in the mountains, and con
tain but few good buildings. The troops aro
all quartered in houses, lhe Cadets occupy
Union Hall, a brick building belonging to tho
Masons and Odd-Fellows. I write this letter
in the anti-room. The building is good. We
sleep in the Hall, the furniture being careful
ly put away, and use the lower story to cat
in, &c. The rest of the 5th ar,e quartered in
the machine shops, round houses, &c, of the
t, ., i mi i- .1- a ..
nauroau company, ine reueis imriii num
ber of bridges near here, the bridge in this
place and some cars and locomotives. All
has been quiet here since mv arrival. On
Wed.nes.dav some of Kane's scouts discovered
a rebel force of 700, but before reinforcements
could be got they had fled. When I can get
some ink I will write again a pencil not be
ing quite the article for writing.
lours truly, M.
How Col. Siegel's Mes Fought. A Seces
sion letter, by one who ays he was an eye
witness, after giving a brief account of the
Carthage fight, and making out a Secession
victory, of course, ia.s this paragraph : "Af
ter our boys had cut off the wing of the enemy
with their four cannon, the best they had,
they were compelled to put them down before
they would give up the guns. The cavalry,
in winch our jQnnston boys played a conspic
uous part, charged on them, and in many cases
they would not surrender until they were cut
down. The boys had to ride up and cut their
heads off. Thev got all their principal officers,
one of whom refused to surrender, shooting
two our men after being surroqnded. They of
course riddled him."
Patriotism of the Sailors Over fifteen
hundred United States sailors, stationed in our
men of war abroad, (haye sent to their flag
ships a request to be drafted "in some strips
serving against the rebels."" One corvette,
having only three hundred and thirty men all
told, records the names of three hundred and
ten who want to fight. A petition from one
vessel's crew ends thus: "Surely among the
ten thousand blue jackets serving Qn, the coast,
there must be a few hundred that cannot burn
for the fray as we do." .'It is said that the cap
tain of this ship told his men that they were
ordered to the States, and. wcld soon have
"hot, work enough to do." '

KF'Onedaj recently, tfc,e, wcakmen in cleap

air burst out into flame. It has been over
eight months since the fire took place which
destroyed the premises, and still the moulder

The Result of the Battle at Manassas.
The result of the battle of Sunday, by clearly
revealing the strength of the Rebels' forces
concentrated at Manassas and tho uature of
their fortifications, has at least served to show
how inadequate were the number en,t, to dis
lodge them. Armed with cani;ou of small
calibre, and weakly supported by cavalry, the
national troops were ill-prepared to cope with
superior numbers entrenched behind heavy
field pieces, stationed in masked batteries,
constructed with the best engineering skill,
in a region which, by its topographical fea
tures, singulaily lends itself to purposes of
military defense. A system of fortifications
constructed and arranged as those at and near
the Manassas Jnnction are now disclosed to be,
could not be expected to fall except before the
cautious approaches of an army appointed
with siege trains necessary for such heavy
work. Batteries which are evi,dertly the re
sult of patient labor, extending through many
weeks, are not to be reduced in a day by the
dash of light flying artillery, however effi
ciently served, or to be taken by storm, how
ever impetuous and yet cool may be the valor
of the national troops.
And under this latter head tho events of
Sunday speak none the less eloquently be
cause success failed in the end to crown the
efforts of the few regiments which heroically
essayed an unequal task. The desperation of
their courage is sufficiently shown hy the very
enterprise which they undertook in the face
of such odds, as well as by the losses which
they are known to have suffered in making
the attempt to carry works so formidable.
Succeeding for a time in the object proposed
to themselves, and (as all unite in testifying)
every where driving the secession forces oacK
to their entrenchments when they appeared
the open field, these brave voluutecrs were
called offby their commander only when fur
ther effort was seen to be 'futile. Veterans
could not have shown a more determined spir
it of hardy daring. If in effecting their re
treat a portion of the national troops were
thrown into disarray, by a panic which took
its origin among the non-combatants accom
panying the expeditjou, it is, now proven that
the withdrawal failed to. assume to propor
tions of a rout, except for an inconsiderable
part of Gen. McDowell's army, as that officer
continued to hold undisturbed possscssiou of
his camp at Centreville, the most advanced
position yet held by the national forces in,
their late forward movement.
B.d Prospects ; for Borrowisq.A late
letter from London states that there is no at
tention now paid to the rebel Commissioner
in England, and that the people at large dread
the idea of a war with the United States. He
assorts that Mr. Yancey has as much chance
of negotiating the rebel loan in that country
as be would have of selling a mortgage on "an
uncaught whale in the Arctic Ocean."
Vote on the "Constitution" in Georgia.
The Macon (GaM) Telegraph, of the 13th,

been polled in them.. "Ratification" ia about
400 votes ahead.- The result is considered
doubtful, though probably the Constitution

It is stated that rebels intend planting bat

Uncle Sam Paving his Wat. This army is
paying damages for the land it occupies as it
passes along. An assessment of damages in
the neighborhood o Alexandria, was made by
the Hoard or examiners, ana toe amounts as
sessed were paid. One man, whose house was
occupied as the headquarters of the comraan
der of one of the divisions which was bivou
acked upon his land, received three hundred
and fifteen dollars. A neighbor, whose wheat
field and house was similarly occupied, receiv
ed one hundred, and another one hundred and
nity collars, an in goia. one of them was
heard to say be had, c.ot for a long time seen
so much real mQncy, and that hp would willing
ly give all he had received to be allowed to go
back of Manassas and tell his friends how much
th,ey were deceived about the Union army, and
that it was not coming among them to ravish
their women, and destroy their property, and
carry off their negroes, but to protect the peo
ple and pay their way in gold. His only fear
was that it he went back to Manassas he would
be impressed into the service of the rebel ar
my, and either hung for having received fed
eral gold, or prevented from returning to bis
family. Army Letter. . - ,
As an evidence of the desperate fighting at
Cull's Run,, a. rn.as.ked, battery vas tak.en and
lost seven times by (he federal forces. Qn
the eighth assault, the battery was carried and
destroyed, with immense loss to the rebels.
Mr. Kussell, ol the JAndon limes, who was
with the army of Gen. McDowell, declared
that the assault of our troops exceeded those
of any he had ever witnessed by the best train
ed soldiers of Europe. There was coolness and
precision in all their actions, and as long as
they were left alone to deal with the enemy,
they fought like heroes. The trouble came,
however, when they w,ere confused by the
panmofj thos.a wo, 'ivere o.aiy le witnesses
of the fight.
The attack on Bull's Run is said to have
been premature, and contrary to the program
me laid down by General Scott. It was not
intended that any engagement should take
place until General Patterson had come up
with his forces, but it was no doubt supposed
by General McDowell that Patterson would
make his junction at the time expected, and
he having failed to do so, the plans of Gener
al Scott and General McDowell were thus frus
trated, and the column of General McDowell
being unsupported, by a body of men which
he had a right to expect wouhl haye been pres
ent to sustain it was outnumbered by an over
whelming force.
Prize Vessels. A telegram from Washing
ton on Saturday says : The propeller Reliance
arrived t the Navy Yard to-day, having in
tow a couple of prize schooners, the Brunette
and the Ringdove, captured a short time since
near City Point, by the stealer Yankee.
Th,eir cargoes consisted or pig-iron, nails and
vitriol, and were yaluable. The Brunette was
loaded at Philadelphia, the Ringdove at Balti
more. The cargo of the former consigned to
Richmond, that of the latter to Norfolk and
Petersburg.
' Water Hors.es. French bojse doctors
have, discovered that a horse can live longer
without solid food than without water. He
can live twenty-five days without the former,
and but 3ve without the latter, though eating
solid food. A horse which had been deprived
of water for three days drank eleyen gallons,
in the space pf three minutes.

He was. struck in the back ot tle neck by a

Every Summer thedemand for Hostcttcr's Cclo

be the only certain preservation of bodily strength
daring a period when the atmosphere ia calcula

give way to its potent influence. Innumerable
persons, viho aro now alive and well, must thank
the discoverer of this preparation that they have
not been swept away in the. harvest of death. The
Bitters is. recommended by the boat physicians in
the land. This is the hpst evidence of its real
