Rtifus Thompson's orchard, can have the same

Socks ron the Soldiees. We would say to
"the friends of thes!dieis now in the army,
that if they desire to make a present of a pair
of socks to any one, and wish, ns to forward
them, that they will please prepare them at an
early day ; as we intend to put up and send on
those now on hand. Ladies, of Clearfield
county, it is for you to see the preparation of
these gills. We know that they will be highly
appreciated by those who have gone todeJend
our country Ironi destruction. Then piepare
them with as little delay as possible, for the
season is at hand, when they will add much to
th comfort and health of your friendd.
A Iic.x ofp. On last Frlday,vhilst a nu:ubi-r
of persons were driviug on the track on the
Fair ground, a buggy came in collision u ith a
sulky which was driven by T. J. M'Cullough,
Esq., and broke the axle of the sulky and
threw Mr. 31 'C. out. The horse being a
spirited one, immediately took oil at full speed
for town and befura he was captured completely
broke up the sulky and injured himself con
siderable. At Judge Barrett's the horse ran
on the pavement with a portion of the sulky
6ti!l attached. A Iittlo son of Mr. B's was
plaj ing with a "hobby-horse" on the pavement
at the time, and but for the timely interference
of .Mr. Etzweiler, no doubt, he would have
been severely injured, if not killed. Mr. E.
hucing the danger of the child, snatched him
&way just in time to save him from injury. The
"holby-horse" was brokwn to pieces.
Remedy for Fevivr a,nd Aci'ic. That most
disagreeable of all febril disorders, the lever
and ague, has been hitherto regarded as yield
ing only to quinine, which is held to be a spe
cific in the disease. The decoction of Peru
vian bark, however, is a costly medicine, and
as tho army is likely to make a large demand
for Mie aiticle, and raise its price, tha posses
ion ci anotfier remedy, if effectual, may be
considered as au important, acquisition. A
goiiilcaian, who has lately been among our
tumps on the Upper I'otonic, where tho
i. ague" is raito prevalent, says that an extract
! the common white p'aintaln, made by steep
ing tiie Ism'es iu whiskey, aud taken before
breakfast, a dozen mornLugs In succession, is
evcit niora certaia than qniuino in curing the
f-ivrr. We are not aLle to judge of the virtue
t. f this plant as a remedial agent in any disease
whatever, but If it is what it is described to be,
i: lus tiie merit of cheapness, as ifc is- sid to
be at every farm-holism door.
Coj teb, Sugar axd Tka. Our citizens are
aware that tho prices of these necessary arti
cles, have rapidly advanced of late. This is
not warranted by kcarcity, nor by the ntodjr
ite t.tx which will soon be laid by the Govern
ment upou them . but is caused by action on
tii- part of speculators, which journals every
where should expose. Tho New York corres
pondent of the Philadelphia Ledger in alluding
to tliis subject, &a3s : A very active hpocula
uve movement in coffee, sugar and tea, has
been in progress Urc for some time past, the
effect of which has been to run up the prices
of thess almost necessaries of 1 i to to a figure
which places them quite bwyond the reach of
those who have the most need of them the
poor. In anticipation of the increased duty
to which those commodities will soon be sub
ject, tho speculators have bought, or are buy
ing up and placing in store, tho surplus stock
on hand, in the expectation of commanding
their own prices for them. Even now, .the
commonest qualities of brown sugar cannot
lo purchased at retail at less tWan 1J cents
per pound, which is an increase of one hun
dred per cent, upou prices current for tho
sunie quality a mouth ago. Tha advance on
coff'eo and tea is not so enormous, but it is
sufficient to limit consumption to a very per
ceptible extent, and to make the working class
Tealiza the necessity of abandoning their use.
The ruoderalo tax imposed by the Government
upon tbess articles, will be borne iu the same
patriotic spirit of self-sacrifice whieh has
characterized our people 5 from the beginning
jf the war, but it. is questionable whether as
niuch can be said iu regard to the speculator
who are thus taking advantage of the necessi
ties f Government to add to tho burthens of
the public, for the pnrDoso of enriching fheni
selves. . '

C0KKE5P0NDENCE OF THE "JOURNAL."
Camp Crossmas, Oct. 8. 1861.
Ma. Kow : This camp is three miles from
Huntingdon, and very pleasantly situated, with
plenty of good water. We lodged five days
and nights in the Court House in Huntingdon,
and were treated very kindly by the citizens
of the town. Col. Murry is a good oflieer and
a clever man. Our election passed off pleas
antly. Three copies of the "Kaftsman 's Jour
nal" visited onr camp last week, and were
vety welcome isitors. Direct, Company K.
Col. Muny's Regiment, Camp Crossnian, Hun
tingdon, Ta. Yours, Bifle.
PRISONERS AT RICHMOND.
Lieutenant II. Goodcnough, Jr., and Pr.
Harris, the former of the Fourteenth X. Y.
Statu .Militia, of Brooklyn ; the latter of the
Second regiment of Rhode Island, and both
lately doing medical duty at Richmond, have
been released with five others on surgeon's
parole, and have just arrived iu Xew York.
They report that they were captured while
attending their wounded comrades alter the
battle of. Stone Bridge ; and with the others
taken prisoners, were stripped of evtry arti
cle but those ultimately required by decency,
and in this condition were sent to Richmond,
consuming forty-eight hours on the way. pack
ed into biggage cars wilh other prisoners as
full as they could stand.
At Richmond they were put into the tobac
co factory or prison hospital. There the Con
federate surgeons, as might be expected, at
tended to the rebel wounded first, ;ind after
wards to our own men, who were not, howev
er, treated with any undue severity of prac
tice. The rebel surgeons in general, as may
unfortunately bo remarked of many who at
tended our own regiments, are singularly in
competent, and display, to a degree propor
tionately increased, the same reckless love of
carving for carving's sake, which is to often
manifested in onr own municipal ho-pitals.
Many limbs were sacrificed by the knile, sim
ply on account of comminuted fractures, where
they might easily h ive been saved, and many
niOi? were allowed to remain up tmputated
which should have eoin? oil, because the shell
fra;;iio!itj they had received had not broken
bones. Ol these latter cases the great num
ber died sinking into a slow typhoid state
from the wide destruction of tissues the shells
had produced without implicating the bone.
Singularly enough, neither in the general
nor the prison hospitals did any cases occur
after the Stone Bridge battle of high inflam
matory 'affections supervening upon wounds.
There was no erysipelas no hospital gan
grene. All the deaths occurred rather from
low than high inflammation.
It was a common practice for the rebel sen
tries to fire at the w indows of the prison con
taining the loyal captives. One man, already
mentioned in our despatches, was killed in
this way another was seriously wounded
through tho leg, without even putting his
head out of the window.
The climax of barbaritj' was, however,
reached when the sentry fired into the window
of the hospital. Fortunately no one was kil
led, but the ball passed three feet over tho
head of tho dying bed of one of our wounded,
and went out at tiie ward door behind him.
After these little escapades of tho sentries, an
officer generally came over from Beauregard
to tell the surgeons it was a mistake.
Ia one ward a single physician was left to
take care (without assistance) of more than
one hundred and fifty patients.' Lint, banda
ges, sponges ; all hospital appliances were very
scant, but in general were shared between the
rebel and Union wounded with more generos
ity than might have been expected.
Elegant Extract. A correspondent of the
Memphis (Tenn.) Appeal uses tho following
elegant language. It would disgrace the Hot
tentots :
"If hell does not break loose under the feet
of every Federal soldier and every Federal ad
herent Union man in Missouri, Kentucky
and Maryland, it will be because there is no
auch place as hell, or those Slates are unwor
thy to join our glorious Confederacy. We
know what vast pyramids of human bones
they are in imagination erecting all over our
Southern plains. And every Southern man,
with even apiece of sou) in him, should brace
himself like steel for the rush of the Scythian
hordes thatLincoln is preparing hurl upon us.
JIo ! every. Southern man ; ho! every man on
this side of tho border fling yourself from
this day forward, heart and soul into the con
flict, each iu hts appropriate sphere of action.
Let the brutal minions of a beastly despotism
come on ! The slaughter pens are ready, and
Yankee blood shall flow as free as festal wine."
A Terrible Boat. The gunboat New Era,
a terrible engine of destruction, left St. Louis
last week, for Missouri river, drawing three
and a half feet of water, and will navigate the
Missouri with ease. It has 3C0 men on board,
all prepared with rifles for deadly conflict, ev
ery man being a splendid marksman. Tho
vessel is shct and shell proof, and has speed
enough to select her own position with celer
ity and precision. The engines, boilers and
wheels are all protected Leyond anv' perad-
Tenture by heavy kerns,' aud tho sharp-ahbol-.
ers and gunners, and all others on board, will
be in no danger whatever from bullets from
shore. Her fine Dahlsrreen guns eighty-four
pouuders are all in place, under bomb-prcof
decks, and, being directed by experienced
gunners, will destroy, with the greatest ease,
any obstacle within a distance of three miles.
The Xew Era will prove an invaluable institu
tion on the Missouri. She cant be sunk, per
forated, burned, nor blown up. Her crew are
eager lor the fray.
John Ross. It appears that the report that
Ross, the Cherokee Chief, had joined the Se
cessionists, is not true. There has been a re
volt among the Indiana, but Ross is fighting
for the Union. The leader of the rebel In
dians is said to be a halt-breed, which we can
readly credit, for it is well-known that these'
hybrids are the most treacherous and heartless
creatures on the earth. They appear to have
all the worst qualities of both tho races from
which they are derived, without any of" the
good ones. The most atrocious cruelties
which have brought odium upon the Ameri
can Indians, have been instigated or perpetra
ted by half-breeds.
