Polrt. An adjoruned court is now in ses
sion in this place, and a number of causes
have been disposed of. . The court is to con

Governor Curtio has issued a Proclamation
culling upon tho citizens of the State, to furn
1SU Fenusylvania's quota of volunteers under
,t,e recent call ol the President. Our quota
js 38,208, and it is to be hoped that the res
ponse may be so pronibt as to preclude the
necessity of another draft in this State.
For once, we take' pleasure in calling tho
attention of our readers to an advertisement
that of Howe & Stevens "Family Dyo Col
ors " in this day's paper. These Dyes have
hecomo a household necessity, and so general
in their use that many a well dressed lady
tinds that many an article once rejected as out
ot dale, is, by tliu aid ol these Dyes, made as
good as now.
Thanksgiving Proclamation. On our first
juge will be found the Proclamation of tho
president of tho United States, recommen
cing the observance of the last Thursday" in
November, as a day of praise and tlranks to
God for the manifold hlessings vouchsafed to

Distressing . Accident. On Thursday
morning the 15th ultimo, Samuel Sebring,
Esq., of New Washington in this county, was
threshing his grain. A youth named Wm.
Kattoo, about sixteen years of age, was in the
mow throwing the straw from tho machine.
He ascended the heap to tramp it down, leav
ing his fork slip from bis hand when ascend
ing. It lodged with the handle against th"e side
..f the mow, leaving the prongs with the con
vex side down, thus throwing the points up.
In descending.be jumped playfully, designing
to alight on his hands and knees, but forget
ting tho position of the fork, he jumped upon
it, one prong enteiing his right breast and
pissing through his lungs. The machine was
brought to quietness as soon as possible, and
be carried out of the barn. Every exertion,
which love could command, was made to save
his lifi, but in about ha' I an hour he breathed
his last. lie had been found by Mr. Sebring,
when a very little b'y, in a small log shanty,
clad in the garments of extreme poverty, and
na wretched condition. Me was brought to
the S'uires home, clothed aud cared for as a
son, and by his distress-ing death Mr. Sebring
und his kind hearted companion have been
deeply alliicted. D . . .
IMPORTANT DECISION RELATIVE TO THE
DRAFT.
Washington, Nov. 1. The following im
portant decision has just been madu by Pro
vost Marshal General Fry :
To Col. Robert NiuK r, A-. A. PovostMar
mial General. N. Y.
The representations made by Dean Ilich
moiid and Peter digger, in a printed circular
laud Oct. 27th, 18G3, in respect to the action
et the Provost Marshal General, are untrue.
ii is not true that the State of New York is
thaigt-d as with a deficiency for every citizen
li has paid the three hundred dollars oia
imitation money receiving no credit ttwsrelor.
u the contrary, the State receives the same
tredit for a man who has paid commutation,
as ii tho drafted citizen had gooe iri person
l-r furnished a substitute, and in like manner
t'mus which have raised the money to pay their
quotas recoive tho bauio credit as if acual sub
stitutes had been furnished ; and the Presi
dent has ordered that every citizen who has
paid the three hundred dollars commutation
shall receive the same credit therefor as if he
had furnished a substitute and was exonerated
from the military service for the time (or which
he was drafted, to wit -. for three years. As
'he misrepresentations of Dean Richmond and
i'etter Cagger have boon published and cireu
I'lid, therefore it is proper that you give
tlam immediate correction.

Provost Marshal General.

'oast to Prince Gortscbakoff was read at the
Russian banquet in New York, it was receiv

the Ambassador of the Czar, responded to it
s follows :
''1 can hardly express my feelings of grati
tude lor the sentiment ottered my illustrious

rnong the eminent statesmen of Europe the
American people have no stronger friend or

t conies trom a statesman who stands so high,
not only in Lis own country, but in the whole
political world, aud for whom Prince Gort-x-'hakoll
has the highest esteem and .consider
ation. During the last three years I had the
session to know and appreciate the. high po
litical qualities of your Secretary of State, as
eh" as his invariable" affability 10 his private

WAR IN INDIA..
England is again threatened with war in In
dia. The Punjaub, or north-western portion
of British India, has beeu invaded by 7,000
men, beaded by the sous of Dost Mohammed,
one of the' most renowned chieftains of Cen
tral Asia, who died at the beginning ot the
present year. It was feared that this force
was only the van-guard of a larger army ; and,
consequently, British troops were hastened to
the seat of hostilities, and other precautions
taken for repulsing the invaders and what in
India must be dreaded in case of any foreign
invasion the outbreak of an insurrection.
The news of these troubles has, of course,
attracted in England considerable attention,
tor it w well and generally known by the En
glish peoplo that among all the loreign depen
dencies ot England there is none whose loyal
ty can be less depended upon than India.
There are now living in India, under British
rule, nearly 190,000.000 of the people,goveru
ed and kept in Check by a small tody of Eu
ropean troops and officers.
Outside of the native Europeans, there are
only small portions of the native population
on whose loyalty England can depend; these
are the native Christians, the Parsees.the East
Indians, or descendants of Europeans and na
tives; but together they number not more than
tour or five million inhabitants. The re
mainder are all doubtful. Large portions of
the native population, especially among the
Mohammedans, are fanatically opposed to the
continuance of British rule, and only waiting
for a favorable opportunity to rise in insurrec
tion. The memory of the horrors of the Sepoy
rebellion is still trunk in the minds of every
Englishman ; and tbe breaking out of a new
Indian war will jeopard not only English rule,
but endanger the lives of all his countrymen
iu India. Neua Sahib, the bloodthirsty chief
ot tbe Sepoys, is still at large lor the recent
report ot bis capture turns out to be errone
ous. He meditates vengeance, and may be
expected to avail himself of tbe first opportu
uiiy to raise again the standard of revolt.
The English, therefore, wait with intense
anxiety for further news from their Indian
possessions aod their countrymen in tbe East.
The late Stephen A. Douglas, whose memory
is warmly cherished by alt loyal Democrats,
once remarked that "patriotism emanates
from the heart, fills the soul, infuses itself in
to the whole man, and speaks and acts the
same language. A friend ot bis country in
war will feel, speak and act for bis country,
revere his country's cause and bate bis coun
try's enemies. America wants no friend,
acknowledges the fidelity of no citizen who.
after war is declared, condemns the justice of
her causa and sympathizes with the enemy.
All such are traitors in their hearts." These
noble sentiments are a fiat rebuke of the so
called Democracy of the day, who, now that
their country is at war with that most bitter
of all enemies, a domestic foe, not only do
not "feel and act and speak" agaiutl tho Gov
ernment, and do all that lies in their power to
embarrass Its eflorts to put down its enemies.
Alas! that tbe name of Democrat, in which
the great Democratic leader of Illinois took
so much pride .aud delight, should bo thus
disgraced by being prostituted to tho service
of rebellion. How are the aiighty fallen J
A TKEASONABLE PLOT IN OHIO.
PLANS OF THE CONSPIRATORS.
Particulars of their detection and arrest
Cincinnati, Nov. 2. Considerable stir was
made in this city, on Saturday night, by the
arrest of Samuel P. Thomas, his wife ; James
P. Patton, of Covington, Ky. ; Ruth McDon
ald, of Newport, Ky., aud a Mrs. Parmenter,
charged, on tbe affidavit of Malor lieany, of
General Cox's staff, with conspiring to release
five thousand rebel prisoners in Camp Chase,
two hundred rebel officers in tbe Ohio peni
tentiary, and as many more in M'Lean Bar
racks, in this city,,
The arrests were made' by detachments ot
United States troops, under tbe direction of
United States Marshal Sands, and the parties
were held in $10,000 each, for a hearing on
Wednesday before UnitedStates Commissioner
llolliday. Geo. E. Pugh is counsel for the
accused.
On Sunday the Marshal went to Columbus
on a special train and arrested the late State
Commissioner, Cathcart ; J. D. Crisop, former
partner of Thomas; a Mr. Slade, formerly a
rebel prisoner, and a Dr. Lazele, who stands
high. among the Copperheads. Lazele was put
in the pen itentiary,and the others were brought
in irons to this city, and transferred to the
county jail.
Mrs. Parmenter was a washerwoman at the
United Strtes barracks in Newport, and a go
between of tho prisoners and outside emissa
ries. Tho detectives gained her confidence
and that of Mrs. McDonald and became par
ties to their plans. They all met frequently
at Thomas's house.- Thomas furnished money
to buy axes and chloroform to release tho
prisoners, and furnished a disguise to tho de
tective who traveled between the Columbus
and Cincinnati confederates. He visited Co
lumbus frequently and conferred with Cath
cart and others there, and was in conference
with bim when arrested.
The plan of release at Camp Chase was as
follows : When the prisoners saw a beacon
light at a certain point, they should be ready.
The guard would be shot by their outside
friends, and axes thrown over to them.
Once'out, with axes and arras provided, they
were to storm the penitentiary, release Mor
gan and the other officers, and start for the
Ohio river and cross near Maysville. Cathcart
was to go along, receiving a commission in
the rebel army for his reward.
Cathcart was arrested at Rev. Sabiu Hough's
bouse. Hough is the secessionist to whom
Vallandigham wrote in 1801 that "the Union
was hopelessly divided. ". Cathcart was from
Dayton and one of Vallandigham's particular
friends and admirers.
Wild as the scheme is, there seems to be
abundant evidence that it was to have been
tried a week ago, but tbe plans miscarried
then. Other-arrests are to be made. It is not
known bow xtensive the organization for
this infernal business was.
Wb learn that Mr. John N. Buck has been
hung by guerrillas in Holmes county. Miss.
He has always been a strong Union man, and
formerly took refuge in Memphis. He had
been instrumental in aiding the Union troops
in Central Mississippi, and for this cause bo
met his cruel fate.

From Kev. J. Neintou IlrowH, D. D. Editor of

Although not disposed to favor or recommend
Patent Medicines in general, through distrust of
their ingredienu and effects ; I yet know of no
sufficient reasons why a man may not testify to
the benefits he believes himself to have received
from any simple preparation in the hope that be
may thus contribute to the benefit of others.
I do this the more readily in regard to Hoof
land's German Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M.
Jackson, of this city, because I was prejudiced a
gainst them for many years, under the impres
sion that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture.
I am indebted to my friend Robert Shoemaker,
Esq., for the removal of this prejudice by proper
tests, and for encouragement to try them, when
suffering from great and long continued debility.
The 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 mental vigor which I had not felt for six
months before, and had almost despaired of re
gaining. I therefore thank Jod aud my friend
for directing me to the use of them.

ATTENTION, SOLDIERS !
AND THE FRIENDS OF SOLDIERS.
We call the attention of all baring relations or
friends in the army to the fact that -Hooplano's
Oernian Bitters" will cure nine tenths of the dis
eases induced by exposures and privations inci
dent to enmp life, in the lists, published almost
dailv in tbe newspapers, on the arrival of the
sick, it will be noticed that a very largo propor
tion are fullering Iroin debility. Every case of
that kind can he readily eared by J toofland s Ger
man Bitters. Diseases resulting from disorders
of the digestive organs ara speedily removed. We
Lave no hesitation in stating that, if these Bitters
were freely used among our soldiers, hundreds of
lives might be saved that otherwise will be lost.
Wo call particular attention to the following re
markablo and well authenticated cure of one the
nation's heroes, whose life, to use his own lan
guage, '-has been saved by the Bitters :''
Pailaoeli'hia, August 23rd. 1882.
Messrs. Jones Evans. Well , gentlemen. your
Hootland's German Bitters has saved my life.
There is no mistake in this. It is vouehed for
by numbers of mjr comrades, soma of whose names
are appended, aud who were fully cognisant of
all the circumstances of my case. I am, and
have been tor the last four years, a member of
Sherman's celebrated battery, and under the im
mediate command of Capt. R. B. Ayres. Through
the expo sure attendant upon my duties, I was
attacked in November last with inflammation of
the lungs, and was for soventy-two days in tbe
hospital. Ibis was followed by great debility,
heightened by an attack of dysentery. I was then
removed from the White House and seut to this
city on board the Steanscr '-State of Maine,"from
which I landed on tke 28th of June. Since that
time 1 have been about as low as any one could
be and still retain a cpark of vitality. For a
week or more I wa scarcely able to swallow any
thing, and if I did force a morsel down, it was
iinuiodUtely thrown up again.
1 could not even keep a glass of water on xaj
stomach. Life could not last under the.oo circum
stances; and, accordingly, the physicians who
had been working faithfully, though unsuccess
fully, to rescue me from the grasp of the dread
Archer, frankly told me they could do no more
for me, and advised me to see u clergyman, and
to make such disposition of my limited funds as
best suited me. An acquaintance who visited me
at the hospital. Mr. Frederick Steinborn. of Sixth
below Arch Street, advised me, as a forlorn hopo,
to try your Litters, and kindly procured a bottle.
From the time I commenced taking them the
gloomy shadow of death receded, and I am now,
thank God for it. getting better. Though 1 have
taken but two bottles, f have gained ten pounds,
and I feel 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
Hoyal. To your invaluable Bitters I owe the cer
tainl.7 of life which has taken ptaee of vague fears
to your Bitters will 1 owe the glorious privi
lege of again clasping to my bosom those who arc
dearest to me in life.
Very truly yours, Isaac Malose.
We fully concur in tho truth of the above state
ment.as we had despaired of seeing our comrade,
Jlr. Malone. restored to health.
