Death or Another Soldier. On the 20th
of November last, William H. M'Kee, died at
Carver Hospital, of typhoid fever, lie was a
memler of Capt. John Irvin's company, 149th
Regiment Penn'a Volunteers. He leaves a
wife and one child, as well as a large circle of
friends and acquaintance, to mourn his death.
His remains were sent home and interred in

Dk.strcvtive Fibe. We learn from the But
ler Herald, that the Orphans' Home, situate
near Zelienople, Butler connty, was entirely
consumed by fire on the 6th. At the time the
institution was burned, about fifty Orphans
were under the care of its benevolent mana
gers. The children h ive been distributed a
mong different families in the neighborhood.
Most of the clothing of the inmates was also
destroyed, together with the stores thit had
laid up for winter use. The fire is suppose'!
to have originated from a defect in one of the
chimneys. This institution was projected by
Kcv. W. A. I'ass ivant, a Lutheran minister of
Pittsburg, who has been its manager, and un
tiring friend and patron. The Home was es
tablished some ten or twelve ears since, was
sustained by contributions from benevolent
persons, and its inmates were gathered from
!l classes, without reference to their chris
tian antecedents. The building cost about
$2-1000, and was insured for a small amount

IXPOttTANT BRANCH BAIL-WAY.
An item which we find floating in our Penn
ylvania country exchanges (where, by the
w,y we often encounter a great many other
good things) announces that by the middle of
December the rails will be laid from Tyrone,
on the Pennsylvania Central railroad, to Belle
onte, the capital of Centre county, Pa., and
'hat cars are already running from Tyrone to
port Matilda. This work is on the Tyrone
nd Lnckbaven railroad, which traverses the
Bald Eagle Valley, and connects the Penn
sylvania Central railroad at Tyrone with the
f biladelphia and Erie at Lockhaven. Belle
fonie is about half the distance between the
two points.
Br the completion of this work a direct
ad will be opened from Pittsburgh to Elnii
r VV'illiapjsport, Cattawissa, Easton, and all
the northeastern part of Pennsylvania. The
Albany and Susquehanna railroad, which is
nov in course of construction to Binghamp
t0, on the 2Vw York and Erie railroad, will
connect Pittsburgh with Albany and Boston
the Bald Esgle Valley line. Ot this route
the Williamsport and Eltmra line constitutes
tbeessenti.il part, and thus the reader Will
appreciate the rumor which has recently ob
tained credence in the New York money mar
ket, to the effect that the Pennsylvania rail
road was considering a proposition to lease
the Etiuira road. . With that line in its pox
session, the Pennsylvania compauy would
have a direct road from Pittsburgh to Albany
and Boston, avoiding both Philadelphia and
New York.
Our Gotbamlte neighbors, who have been
busily engaged witti all sorts of projects to
go round Philadelphia, have overlooked the
fact that Boston is doing New York the same
favor. This Albany aud Binghampton road
once completed, New England would be able
to take its choice of railroads to and from
the west, the New York Central being not
more direct for them than this branch makes
the New York and Erie, or than the Bald
Eagle valley line, in connection with the Al
bany and Susquehanna road, will make the
Pennsylvania Railroad. Hitherto the Bald
Eagle valley work has been condemned only
as a local affair, built to satisfy the clamor of
a wayside population, but with the building
of the Albany and Susquehanna road it be
comes one of great importance.
It puts Bellefonte en rapport with the whole
railway system of the Northern States, and
must make the valley the highway of an in
creasing business. We observe, also that an
other branch railway is projected to run from
Lewistown to Bellefonte, which, if built,
would open a new and direct connection be
tween Bellefonte and Philadelphia, a matter
of interest to us in view of the prospects of
the former and of the valley. Both roads
would be useful as conjunctions of the two
great Pennsylvania main lines. Philadelphia

EEPOKT OF THE SECY OF THE NAVY.
Next in in interest to reports of the opera
tions of the Treasury and the War Depart
ments, is that of the Navy, and it France
should chose to carry out her intimated inter
ference, tbe capabilities of our iron clads and
the number o' our effective vessels will be
carefully studied by every one interested in
our success in defending our institutions
and our honor. From the very long and mi
nute report ol Secretary Welles, (which is i
history of all the naval engagements of the
war, as well as a statistical document,) we
gather the following snmniary of what has been
accomplished :
When Mr. Welles assumed charge of the
Navy Department in March, 1861, there were
but 42 vessels then in commission, and most
of them abroad. There were only 7.600 sea
men then in the pay of the Government, and
on the 1 0th of March, only 207 in all the ports
and receiving ships of the Atlantic coast, to
man our ships and protect tbe Navy-yards
and depots, and in suppressing the rising in
surrection. At the present time, by purchase
and by construction, the Government has
afloat, or progressing to completion, a naval
force of 427 vessels, and carrying 3,268 guns
So sudden and so vast a naval armament has
not been witnessed iu modern times. Of tbe
427 vessels, in service, 104 only are sailing
vessels, 323 are steam vessels, and 123 of these
latter have been added by construction. This
speaks more than almost any other fact of the
great energy and prodigious achievements of
the Navy Department. These new vessels of
war are of no mean capacity and calibre, as
lb. following description of them will show :
Description. No. of Ves. Guns. Tons.
Second class screw
aluopa-of wa. 13 16 16.396
Screw gunboats, 27 116 14.033
Side whel gunboits, 39 296 36.377
Armored wooden ves'Is 12 6-5 20,893
Armored iron vessels, 32 74 32,631
Total, 123 659 120,290
Mr. Welles points to the work of his im
mense improvised navy, and claims practical
success in its blockading service tbe most
prodigious ever undertaken by any Govern
ment. The high price of cotton in our own
and foreign countries, when the South has
millions of bales of . it, and the exorbitant
price in tho South of all articles of foreign
manufacture, is conclusive proof of the effi
ciency of the blockade. Mr. Welles thinks
all the Southern ports will be in our posses
sion at an early day, when he suggests, a part
of tbe blockading force may be spared to
chase rebel pirates from the high seas a not
very consoling prospect to American com
merce, it must be said.
Tbe Secretary of the Navy speaks with evi
deut disgust of the action of Eugland in per
mitting the rebel privateer, the Alabma, to
leave ber ports to harrass American commerce,
and suggests that the British Government
might justly be called on to make up to Amer
ican shippers and ship owners the losses in
flicted on them by the Alabama. With regard
to the future of American (Southern) com
merce, the Secretary suggests that when all
the Southern coast and ports are safely in our
possession, tbe blockade should be dissolved
and tbe ports opened to general commerce,
under such limit ations,couditions and restric
tion as it would clearly be within province of
the Government to impose, and without of
fense to the laws of nations.
A child, belonging to a family named Rog
ers, residing in Huntingdon, Pa., was burned
so badly, on the 10th Dec., that it died soon
after. It had been left alone, and the accident
occurred by its attempting to play with fire in
a wood stove.
Tbe store of Wm, Bell, Jr., in Erie, Pa.,
was burglariously entered on the night of the
4th Dec, and silk goods, valued at $2:000,
stolen therefrom.
The President has fixed Friday the 19th in

AYER'S PITjTjS Are yon sick, feeble and
complaning ? Are you out ot order with your
system deranged and your feelings uncomfor
table 1 These symptoms are often the prelude
to serious illness, borne nt of sickness is
creeping upon you, and should be averted by
timely use of the right remedy. Take
Ayer's Pills,, and cleanse ont the disordered
humors purity the blood, and let thi fluids
move on unobstructed in health again. They
stimulate tbe functions of the body into vig
orous activity, purity the system from the
obstructions which make disease. A cold set
tles somewhere in the body, and obstructs its
natural functions. These if not relieved, react
upon themselves and the snrronnding organs,
producing general aggravation, suffering and
disease. While in this condition, oppressed
by the derangements, take Ayer's Fills, and
see bow directly they restore tbe natural action
of health again. What is true and so apparent
In this trivial and common complaint, is also
in many of tt:e deep-seated and dangerous
distempers. The same purgative effect expels
them. Caused by similar obstructions and
derangements of the natural functions of the
body, they are rapidly and many ot them
surely, cured by tbe same means. None who
know the virtues of these Pills will neglect to
employ them when suffering from tbe disorder
they enre, such as Headache, Foul Stomach,
Dysentery, Bilious Complatnts, Indigestion,
Derangement of the Liver, Costiveness or
Constipation. As a Dinner Pill tbey are both
agreeable and effectual. ,
