Ssoxr. The first snow' of the season fell on
Monday morning iast,but the quantity was so
..mall as merely to show on the ground. We
may however, soon expect "old Winter,"
with his "hoary locks," to pay us a regular
visit. Well, we expect the -"lads and lassies"
will welcome him, for with his annual re-appearance
conies "fun and frolic," and the et
ceteras.
GOV. CTRTIN AT HOME..
Our friends, in other parts of the State, are
conietimcs st a loss to understand how it comes
that Gov. Curtin, who is admitted 10 be per
sonally popular at home, was beaten in this
count v 314 votes at the recent election, al
though lie carried it in I860 by 311. The rea
Mn i obvious, and Is at once creditable both"
M Gov. Curtin and his friends. The town
ships which gave majorities for him in 1SG0,
have laS- .soldiers under arms, while those
which went against him have sent but 403,
although they poll more than half tho Demo
cratic vote of t he county. Our ranks are do
fiiimtcd at home only because they are so full
the lield, and we point w ith pride arid tri
umph t" the record. We should have blushed
it C.if"'s house h.id stood serene and flourished
in a civil war." Bcllefonle Press.

Bears. David Brown, Jacob Confer and
othei Nimrods living at Canoe Creek, killed
four bears on Thursday October 29th. They

I am iudebtttd to my friend Rohcrt Shoemaker.

The use of three lettles of these Liners, at the

evident relief, and restoration to a dtgree of bod

ATTENTION, SOLDIEJIS !
AND THE FRIENDS OF SOLDIERS.
We call the attention of all bavin? relations ..r-
friends in tho army to the fact that -HoofLANn's
German Litters" will cure nine tenths of the dis
eases induced by exposures and privations inci
dent to camp life. In the lists, published almo.-t
daily in the newspapers, on tho arrival of the
sick, it will be noticed that a very large propor
tion aro suffering from debility. Every case of
that kind can ho readily cured by IIooDand'sGer
ni an Litters. Diseases resulting from disorders
of the digestive orcans arc sncedilv removed. Wn
havo no hesitation in stating that, if these Litters
were freely used anion? our soldiers, hundreds of
lives mijrlit bo saved that otherwise will be lost.
We call particular attention to the following re
markable aud well authenticated cure of one the
nation's heroes, whose life, to uso his own lan
guage, ' has been saved by the Litters :'
Pailapelfuia, August 2'ird, 1S02.
Mxsr. Jo tut ir JZciim. Well, rrcntlemen.vonr
Hooflands German Bitters has saved my life.
There is no mistake in this. It is vouched for
by numbers of my comrades, some of whose names
arc appended, and who were fully cognizant of
all the circumstances of my case. I am, and
have been lor the last four years, a member of
Sherman's celebrated battery, and nnder the im
mediate command ofCapt. 11 L. Ayros. Through
the expo sure attendant upon mv duties. I wa
attacked in November last with inflammation of
tho lungs, and was for scventv-two days in tho
hospital. This was followed by great debility,
heightened by an attack of dyscnicry. I was then
removed from the Whito House, and sent to this
city on board tho Steaiacr State of Maine,"froui
which 1 landed on the 2nth of dune. Since that
time 1 have been about as low as any one could
be and still retain a spark of vitality. F'or a
week or more I was scarcely ablo to swallow anv-
thing, and if I did force a morsel down, it was
mmcdiatcly thrown up aain.
1 1 could not even keep a class of water on mv
stomach. Life could not last under these circum
stances; aud, according! v. the physicians who.
had been working faithfully, though unsuccess
fully, to rescue me from the grasp of the dread
Archer, frankly told mc thev could do no more
for mc, and advised me to see a clergyman, and
to make such disposition of my limited funds as
best suited me. An acquaintance who visited mo
lit tho hospital, Mr. Frederick Steinborn. of Sixth
below Arch Street, advised me, as a forlorn hope.
te try your Litters, and kindly procured a bottle.
From the time I commenced taking them tho
gloomy shadow of death receded, and I urn now
thank God for it. eettinz better. Thou'rh 1 have
taken but two bottles, I have gained ten pounds,
and I feel sanguine of being permittod to rejoin
my no ana uaughter, Irom whom 1 have heard
nothing for eighteen months: for. eentlcmen. I
am a loyal Virginian, from the vicinity of Front
Royal. To your invaluable Litters I owe the cer
tainty of life which has taken place of vajrue fears
to your Litters will 1 owe the glorious privi
lege of again clasping to my bosom thoso who aro
dearest to me in life.
Very truly yours, Isaac Maloxb.
We fully concur in the truth of the above state
