Ma. Ehitoe : Dear Sik : I would have ap
pointed a day fiir each County in the District,
totuecl drafted perotis at their county towns
lor their convenience ; but each drafted per
son having ten days after he is notified of the
draft, to appear and claim his exemption be
lure the Provi st Marshal, and it being impos
lhle that all in any otie County should be no
tified on the same day, it was beyond my pow
rr to fix a certain time. Besides I am inform
al by the I'rovost Marshal, that all persons
(limine exemption, whether by receipt for the
payment of the $30O. or oMierwise, will have
to ieT and make the claim liefore htm ct
i'i riice. in Waterford Doroiigh, E:ie county.
My office in the City of Erie. is but a little dis
tance out ot the route to iVaieiford from oth-
r parts ol the District.
1 presume that thT would be no objection
on Hie part of the Trovost Marshal, if airy
number of ! raited persons should make sniiic
f of their tinmluT the bearwr of their receipts
for the comma tution money ($3()U) "and that
I'e wiiuM recogtiie. ti e claim so m.-idc as
valid. This would save a large aggregate of
rxpehsc and trouble, that must necessarily be
occfioned in travelling, &c.

CORRESPONDENCE OF THE "JOURNAL "
Philipmh-ro, July 18. 18G3.
Ptia Jot'RN4L: Since my lat letter to
vim. there has Ixseii stirring times in our good
M Stale. A clash of arms occurred on our
oil lor the first time since the days of '76, and
firttyshurg is now made classic along with
Valley Fcrge, Braddock's Field, Paoli and
Wyoming. But none of the la'ter were so
frrataa the battle field of Get'y sbnrg. It was
hard loiiglii, but gloriously victorious battle
tortlie brave soldiers wuo are fighting tor the
ttitor.itiun of the best government beneath
the Creator's eye. And I am proud to say,
tful the brave and gallant boys of Philipsburg
did their whole duty as the bloody record
1'l.iinly show. The wounded of Company D,
Vd IViura Volunteers, are Wm. Dolph, left

Uu, and leaves a wife and four small children
rooi;rn his death. He was as brave a sol
dier ai evtr shouldered a musket. His broth
vr Jackson was killed at the battle of An-'ii-tam,
and was the only brother. John de
'Titiined that he would take Jackson's place
"i the rank of Company D, 53d Penn'a Vol
onieers. and it possible, use the muxket that
brother did. He lelt all and repaired to

Hounded aud died as above stated.

u came, from Pbilipsburg, for it is in toto with
me coppernoaa piationu, as adopted by tbe
order in this community. That is the doc
trine preached ever since the first squad of
men left our place for the war; aud it is now
used to contradict the assertion. I made in
I ruy last, about discouraging men from enlist
ing. I lie poor dupe had not foresight to see
that he was telling publicly on his nest. That
is their language, and had he tried, he could
not have written it more plain. The truth of
the master is, that his tongue has got in such
a habit of abusing everything but Jeff Davis
and the south, that he can say Dothing else.
Time after time have thev asserted the low,
grovelling, cowardly, treacherous, traitorous
at"I ignorant, indecent words used in the said
,et . They. the poor cowardly dopes, can
stand in the ir aoors and tell their wives and
children that tbe men who go to war, are
robbers of hen roosts and consumers of Jersey
lightning; but when asked by young America,
"Fa, why don't you go and get some chick
ens' They reply "Oh ! Fa can buy them ;
he has lots of greenbacks." The wife blushes
at her husband's cowardice ; but he gets around
it by relating some horrible deed, or bovine
massacre, that some brother copperhead rela
ted to him. or he read it in the "World,"
'Patriot & Union'' or "Age."
The male, and female copperheads, of our
town are the most inconsistent set ol- snakes
ever read of in Gibon. They snarl, bite, and
hiss, at everything said against tbem. Until
my last letter appeared in yonr columns, I
had no idea that the den was so numerous.
.Many that 1 never dreamed of, put the shoe
on, it appeared to fit atlmirably. There are
1 uly copperheads ill our town, who arc of the
I most violet;'. I beard of a oung ladv who
found great fault wirh the Rev. Creighton.dll
ring last winter, fcr his devotion to the Union
The Kev. was a whole union man, and deliver
ed some impressive and eloquent prayers for
the preservation of the Union. liiia young
lady "dyed in the auburn hir" a coppei head,
remarked to a friend as they were coming
home f rom cliurch. one Sunday evening just
alter the Fredericksburg battle ol December
13th, 1S62, that she'did wish, Jir. Cieighfon
would quit praying for the union ; she often
thought she would not go to hear him any
more." Xow, this young lady mores among
the ee,but evidently is possessed of no small
amount of ignorance. I have seen copper
head men, and hive heard of copperhead wo
men, who have vi!ied our soldiers ni'gbt all

oc nuieu, wiai iney won ia llirow open Ilieir
houses to the rebels and treat them with all
the !i..pii.i!ity .it their command ; tmt a union
soldier, they would see him starve see him
with his tongue hanging out at its full
length, before they would give him a drink of
water. And yet, tiicy ale Ihia moment sul
sisiing on "green backs," paid their hushanas
for services in the army. Men who call our
soldiers roblcrs, thieves, drunkards, and iie
gro lovers ; men who say that our paper mon
ey is worthless ; every man that goes to war
is a bluck abUit ionist.and then quote that the
leaders of the soldiers say the Consiitntinn
is a covenant with death and an agreement
with bell,' that the union can never be re
stored by such soldiers. Wh it are they
Who is he that would make such an assertion f
Is he a fit companion for the devil 1 Is there
any place or condit ion ou this earth that is
suitable for him ? No! Th-Devil would not
trust hire with a piece of brimstone as large as
a pin's head. Nay more, he would not let
him be a --citizen" of his realm. And if he is
a "Citizen" ol this place. Company D should
find him out and bajiisu him to Rutherocks
Island,atid compel him to subsist ou the bones
of departed hor-es, who were mare f iiihful to
their master than he is to his country.

S. Gunboat Alabama, on her passage from St.
Thomas to Havanna, Cuba, West Indies.jACfB
Haiss. marine, of Pbilipsburg, Centre county.
Pa. The deceased was one w hose heart beat
responsive to the supremacy of the Stars and
Stripes, fie loved his country and his flag
with all tbe ardor and enthusiasm that any
man did, that ever pulled a halyard beneath
its folds. He enlisted as a landsman on board
the Columbus, Capt. Wyman, Pacific squad
ron, commanded by Commodore Biddle, May
15th, 1316, for 3 years. He was on board that
vessel for three years and nine months, was
honorably discharged at Norfolk, Va , and
has since lived in this community. Ho had
often lesolvea to join tbe navy alter this war
broke out, but always gave way to the entrea
ties of his wife and family, to stay at heme.
Bnt w hen the depredations of tbe --290," alias
Alabama, reached bis ear, he lockeal up his
shop, leaving his wife and children, to tight
the battles for that flag which had ever waved
over him in triumph. He was as true Amer
ican tar as ever lore that name, that is honor
ed bv all the navies ot the world. The writer
of this brief tribute to. bis memory was so .it-
listed that he had every means oi Knowing
his friendship. He was generous and kind,
rfiv and willinz to do a good act. But
t.. h tr'ona ; eotie. I hope, to that world
where ill is peace. Farewell, then, departed,
and mav the biasing of God rest upon toy
wife and children. -Peace be to his ashes.

IIow the Rebels Treat Abolition Editors
The Editor of tne Fulton Republican pub
lished at McCotmelsburg says, that while the
rebels occupied that town his office was poin
ted out to tbem by the copperheads as an ab
olition concern. Several of the officers called
upon him and asked to see his files. After
examining tbem, the Lieutenant in command
said, "I see, sir, this is a Republican paper ;
you advocate a vigorous prosecution of tbe
war, and are in favor of sustaining your Gov
ernment in everything. - I like to see a man
one thing or the. other." Taking several copies
of tbe paper, they left without molesting any
thing in the office, to the great indignation of
tbe copperheads ot that place.
The telegraph reports that Thad Stephens'
iron mills at Gettysburg have been burned to
tbe ground, Mr. S. loosing at least $100,000,
nearly all his fortune. '
I don't remember having seen you before,

Patent Medicines in general, through distrust of
their m-rredients and effect : I t ,.r
sufficient reasons why a man may not testify to
the benefits he believes hiinselfjo have received
from any simple preparation in tbe hope that ho
may thus contribute to the benefit of others.
I do this the more readily in regard to Hoof
Jand s German Bitters, r.n'nnrcl h n- r- m
Jackson, of this city, because I was prejudiced a
gainst them for many years, under the impres
sion that they were chie3y an alcoholic mixture.
I am indebted to my friend Robert Shoemaker,
Lsq , for the removal of this prejudice by proper
tests, and for encouragement to trr l,n,
suffering from great and long continued debilitv.
J he use of three bottles of these Bitters, at the
beginning of the. present year, was followed by
evident relief, and restoration to a degree of bod
ily and menu! vigor which I had not felt for six i

For those who desire and will have a Liquor

ATTENTION, SOLDIERS X
AND) THE FRIENDS OF SOLDIERS.
We call the attention of all having relations or
friends in the army to the fact that -Hooplas n's
German Bitters' will cure nine tenths of the dis
eases induced by exposures and privations inci
dent to camp life, ln the lists, published almost
daily in the newspapers, on the arrival of the
sick, it will be noticed that a very large propor
tion are suffering from debility. Every case of
that kind can be readily cured by Hoofland's Gor
man Bitters. Diseases resulting from disorders
of the digestive organs are speedily removed. We
have no hesitation in stating that, if these Bitters
were freely used amnngour soldiers, hundreds of
lives uiiiit be saved that otherwise will be lost.
We call particular attention to the following re
markable and well authenticated cure of one the
nation's heroes, whose life, to use his own lan
guage, -has been saved by the Bitters :'

which I landed on the 2th of June. Since that
time 1 have been about as low as any one could
be and still retain a spark of vitality. For a
week or more I was scarcely able to swallow any
thing, and if I did force a morsel down, it was
immediately thrown up again.
1 could not even keep a glass of water on my
stomach. Life could not last under these circum
stances; and, accordingly, the physicians who
had been working faithfully, though unsuccess
fully, to rescue me from tbo grasp of the dread
Archer, frai,kly told uie they could do no more
for me. and advised ine to seo a clergyman, and
to make such disposition of my limited funds as
best suited me. An acquaintance who visited me
at the hospital, Mr. Frederick etc in born, of Sixth
below Arch Street, advised me, as a forlorn hope,
to try your Bitters, and kindly procured a bottle.
From the time I commenced taking them the
gloomy shadow of death receded, and I aiu now.
thank Ged for it. getting better. Though I have
tafcen but two bottles, I have gained ten pounds,
and Ifeel sanguine of being permitted to rejoin
my wife and daughter, from whom I have heard
nothing for eighteen months : for. gentlemen, I
am a loyal Virginian, from the vicinity of Front
Royal. To your invaluable Bitters I owe tbe cer
tainty of life which has taken place of vague fears
to your Bitters will 1 owe the glorious privi
lege of again clasping to my bosom those who are
dearest to me in life.
Very truly yours. Isaac Maloxe.
