CLEARFIELD, FEB. 12, 1862.
p Washington, Feb. 5. The flag of truce
from rebeldom corered an impudent demand,
aach as should not be countenance in honor
able warfare. The message is said to hare
been from Jeff. Davis to President Lincoln,
announcing that, it the Federal Government
permit the rebel bridge burners to be hung,
under the order of Gen. llalleck, that tho
Federal prisoners Cols. Corcoran, Lee, Wil
cox and others, held as hostages for the safe
ty of the pirates, shall be immediately hung
in retaliation. A Cabinet meeting was called
to consider the subject, but I am roquested
not to announce the result. Jeff. Davis will
learn soon enough. It is probable that the
news of the recent order of tho War Depart-
, ment directing the pmateersmen to be re
garded as prisoners of war had not reached
rebeldom, when this last message was sent
from Richmond. The sentiment expressed
by those who know the purport of the message
is, that the officer who brought it, thereby dis-
, gracing the flag of truce, should have been
retained and hung with the bridge burners.
The Town of Romney Va. As Romney is
becoming a place of some notoriety as a
strategic point, a short description of the town
and its vicinity may prove interesting to many
: of our readers. The town itself is beautifully
located, resting upon the South Branch of the
Potomac, about eighteen miles ironi its junc
tion with the North Branch. It is surrounded
on all sides with diclivitous hills and moun
tains, and if well fortified would be almost im
pregnable to an advancing army. It has been
in a measure fortified by nature, and ouly
seeds the band of science to make it a power
ful post lor purpose of defence. It is forty
two miles from Winchester, on the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, and twenty-five miles south
of Cumberland, Md. It is the shire town of
Hampshire county, and contains about five
hundred inhabitants. The town was founded
by Lord Fairfax, and is one of the oldest in
that section of Virginia.
Stealing from Priso.neb9.-AU the restraints
'which keep men from plunging into the lowest
depths of meanness and depravity, seems to
bavo been thrown off by the rebels. It is now
well established that the supplies of clothing,
&c, sent from Fortress Monroe by Gen. Wool,
for the use of our imprisoned soldiers at Rich
rnond,nover reached them. Our returned pris
oners all testify to this tact. The New York
Time furthermore says that our prisoners in
Charleston jail never received the money sent
them by their friends. This the testimony of
returned prisoners from there t We hope the
Government will hasten, to exchange these
poor fellows, and get them out of the clutches
of these thieves. They live by stealing the
labor of their negroes, and the habit has grown
so strong upon them, that they stop at nothing
to gratify the proponsity.
Shot Dead by iibr Brother. On the 4th
instant a young woman by the name of Pye,
living midway between Shippensburg and
New burg, Cumberland county, was shot dead
by her brother, a lad of some ten or twelve
years of age. The boy took a gun which had
been standing in a lower room of his fathers
bouse and was conveying it up stairs when
he observed his sister engaged in making a
bed, and raising up told her he was "going to
shoot her." Pulling the trigger the gun went
off, the load lodging ia the head of the unfor
tunate girl killing her instantly. The boy
states that he was unconscious of there being
a load in- the gun, and had no intention of
committing the murderous act.
Good. Gen. llalleck has issued an order to
the effect that all unpaid telegrams to his head
quarters, on business not rjquiring immediate
answer, and which could have been transmit
ted through the mails in time for all needful
purposes, will bo charged on the pay-rolls of
tho officers thus telegraphing and the amount
collected out of their pay. The same order
would apply to other departments of the army,
and be productive of a like economy. In the
matter -of telegraphing, it will some day be
developed, existed an enormous expense to
the government, which could have been avoid
ed by tho exerciso of the simplest discretion.
Charleston, Feb. 3. A. S. Willington,
the senior editor and proprietor of the Charles
ton Courier, and probably the oldest editor on
this continent, died in Charleston yesterday.
Mr. W. connected himself with the Charles
ton Courier about the commejjeement of tho
present century, and for nearly sixty years
his name as editor and proprietor, has contin
ued at its head. He was abont 84 years of age.
The editor of the German Reformed Mes
senger, In narrating his experience in the way
of ministers' perquisites, says : "In our ex
perience wo have married persons for thirty
seven and a half cents, wo have married on
trust, and we have married for a counterfeit
bill!"
Before her marriage, the Queen of England
was a wayward and fitful young woman sub
ject to the most variable caprices, and entire
ly nncontrolable by her ministers. Shrewd
politicians have always ascribed the calm and
equable course of British policy to the influ
ence of Prince Albert who was one of the
most shrewd and accomplished diplomatists.
When Dr. Franklin was making his first ex
periments in electricity, he wished to try its
effect on a hen, and while holding the wire to
the bird, it strnggled and he received the
whole charge himself. On recovering from
the shock, he good natnredly remarked that
instead of killing a hen by electricity he had
nearly killed a goose."
When the furious Orson saw his own image
reflected from his brother's shield he started
back and stayed his blow; and many of our
own attacks on our brothers' faults might be
arrested, if there were a mirror on bis bosom,
to show us our own likeness there.

VULCANITE BASE FOIl
ARTIFICIAL TEETH.
Attention is especially called to this article, as' a
substitute for gold in inserting teeth. Many per
sons who have tr rd all kinds of metalic bases pre
fer this, and in those cases where it is applicable,
it will in a great measure become a substitute for
gold, silver or platina. Its chief advantages are,
cheapness, lightness and perfect adoption to the
mouth ; it having a soft fleshy feel to the parts of
tne moutn witn wtiicn it comes in contact.
A.M. Hills is prepared to nut up teeth on tho
Vulcanite Base, with Goodyear's Patent Gum,
which is the only reliable preperation, and can
only &? had through their regular agents.
Dr. Hills will always be found in his office on
Friday and Saturday, unless notice appears to the
contrary, in tne town papers, the previous week.
1VTEW-YORK TRIBUNE NEW VOLUME
11 On the seventh of September, 18(51, THE
NEW-YORK WEEKLY TRIBUNE commenced the
twenty-first year of its existence; the THE DAI
LY TRIBUNE being some months older and T LIE
SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE somewhat younger.
For more than twenty years, this journal has la
bored in what its conductors have felt to be tho
cause of Humanity, Justice and Freedom, endeav
oring to meliorate the condition of the oppressed
and unfortunate, to honor and encourage useful
exertion in whatever sphere, and, to promote by
all means the inorat, intellectual and material ad
vancement of our country. It has aimed to be
right rather than popular, and to espouse and
commend to-day the truth that others may not be
willing to accept till to-morrow. In pursuing
this, course, mistakes have doubtless been made
and faults committed ; but, having in all things
incited our readers to think and judge for them
selves rather than adopt blindly our own or oth
ers' conclusions, we believe we may fairly clp.im
for this journal the credit of having qualified its
readers to detect and expose even its own errors.
To develop the minds of the young by the most
general, thorough and practical Education, and to
encourage and stimulate Productive Industry,
through free grants of Public Lauds to actual set
tlers and cultivators, as also through the protec
tion of immature or peculiarly exposed branches
from too powerful foreign competition, are among
the aims to which this journal ha3 adhered
through good and evil report, and which it stead
fastly commends to American patriotism and
philanthropy.
As to the Civil War now devastating our coun
try, we hold it to have originated in a Rebellion
more wanton, wicked, inexcusable, then was ev
er before known a Rebellion in the interest of
the tew against the many a Rebellion designed
to raise higher the walls of caste and tighten the
chains of oppression. Having done all we could
without a surrender of vital principle to avoid
this War. and witnessed the lorbearanco, meek
ncss, and long-suflering with which the Federal
Government sought to avert its horrors, we hold
it our clear duty, with that of every other citizen
to stand by the nation and its fairly chosen ru
lers, and to second with nil our energies their cf
forts to uphold the Union, the Constitution, and
the supremacy of the laws. And, though the Re
bellion has become, through usurpation, deception,
terroism. and spoilation, fearfully strong, we be
lieve the American Republic far stronger, and
that the unanimous, earnest efforts of loyal hearts
and hands will insure its overthrow. But on all
questions affecting the objects, the scope, and du
ration of this most extraordinary contest, we de
fer to those whom the American Peoplo have
clothed with authority, holding unity of purpose
and of action indispensable in so grave an emer
gency In a crisis like the present, our columns must
be largely engrossed with the current history of
tho War for the Union, and with elucidations of
its more striking incidents. We shall not, how
ever, remit that attention to Literature, to For
eign Affairs, to Agricultural Progress, to Crops,
Markets, Ac. which has already, we trust, won for
THE TRIBUNE an honorable position amon its
cotemporaries. Our main object is and shafi be
to produce a comprehensive newspaper, from
which a careful reader may glean a vivid and
faithful history of tho times, not merely in the do
main of Action but in that of Opinion also. As
our facilities for acquiring information increase
with years, wo trust that an improvement in the
contents or our journal is perceptible, and that,
in mo variety ana iuiness oi intelligence afford
ed, we may still hope to ' make each day a critic
on the last." In this hope, we solicit a continu
ance of the generous measure of patronage hith
erto accorded to our journal.

(From Okfioial. IIpital Km-ort )
May 19, IStiO. Ellen S.. a-t. 2. single, cue
was very strong. Two years ago she had an it",
tack of acute rheumatism, from which she wa con
fined to her bed for two weeks, and ub-cqut,tW
from a relapse for four more. She has been weii
since then till la?t Saturday; while engcj ia
house cleaning, she took cold, had pa in feer bark
felt cold, but had no decided chill. Two divs
later her ankles began toiwell which was follow",
ed by swelling of the knee joints and of the ban i.
She has dull pain in her shoulders, and her knuck
les are very tender, red and painful ; both Lan U
are affected, but the rightisthe moat to. Thi.
then, is a case of acute rneuniHti.-m. or, as it U now
fashionably called, rheumatic fever. It in a eil
marked typical disc. Vie will carefully watch :k
case, and from time to time call your attention ta
tho various symptoms which present themcW...
My chief object iu bringing her before you now is
to call your attention to a remedy which his r
cently beon recommended in the trca tmnt of rheu
matism. I mean propylamine. Dr. A wenarius of
St. Petersburg, recommends it in the highest term,
having derived great benefit from its use in
cases w hich came under his care. Various com
mendatory testimonial!! respecting it have appear
ed iu our journals, and I propose giving it another
trial. I must confess 1 am always incredulous n.
to the worth of new remedies, which are vaunted
as specifics ; but this comes to us recommended o
highly, that we arc bound to give it a trial.
SAME CASE FOUR DAYS LATER
May 23, 1300. I wid now exhibit to yow the pa
tient for whom I preshribed Propylamine, icl
who was then laboring under an attack of acure
rheumatism. She has steadily taken it in do
of three grains, every two hour, (intenultti: it
at night). The day after you saw her, I found her
much more comfortable, butter than sho expected
to be for a week or more, judging from her o:h-r
attack. (The patient now walked into tbe room.)
The improvement has steadily progressed, aud
you cannot fail to notice a marked change in tLe
appearance of her joints, which are now nearly nt
their natural site. Thus far our experiment would
have seemed very Miccesstul : but gentlemen w
must wait a little while before we can give a de
cided opinion as to what is to bo the result.
THREE DAYS LATER!!
May 26, lhfiO. This is tbe case of arote rheuma
tism treated with propylamine, the first of thoe to
which I called your attention atourhott elinu
She is still very comfortable, and is now takiL;;
three griitns thrice daily.
In this case it has seemed to be followed by verr
satisiactory results. The second case to whKb
your attention was called at our last lecture, ha-
also continued to do well. I wiil now bring -fore
you a very characteristic case of acute a
mat ism. and if the result b e satisfactory.
