The Weather and Rafting. On Wed
nesday and Thursday of last week, the at-raosphe'-e
was cold enouch to freeze the
ground quite hard, which bad the effect to
reduce tne water in the streams below a
good rafting stage and hence, no rafts have
left this region since Thursday. On Friday
a little snow fell, but not sufficient to make
hauling. The ground is still hard frozen
and it will require considerable rain to raise
the streams to a rafting stage.
Treatment of Croup.
IJ'ilVt Journal of Health says : Croup is
an inflamation of the inner surface of the
windpipe. Inflammation implies heat, and
that lieat must be subdued, or the patient
will inevitably die. If prompt efforts are
made to cool the parts in case of an attack
of croup, relief will be as prompt as it is sur
prising and delightful. AH know that cold
applied to a hot .skin cools it, but all do not
well know and understand that hot water
applied fo an in6amed &kin will as certainly
cool it off. Hence the application of ice
cold water with linen cloths, or almost boil
ing water with woolen flannel, is very effi
cient in ;the cure of croup. Take two or
three pieces of woolen flannel or two folds,
lare enough to cover the whole throat and
linger part of the chest, put these in a pan
of water as hot as the hand can bear, and
keep it thus hot, by adding water from a
boiling teakettle at hand ; let two or three
f the flannels bo in hot water all the time ;
and one on the throat all the time, with a
dry flannel covering the wet one, so as to
keep the heat to some extent ; the flannels
hould not be so wot when put On as to drib
ble the water, for it is important to keep the
clothing as dry as possible, aud keep up the
process until the phlem is loose, the child is
easier, and begins to fall asleep ; then gen
tly wrap a dry flannel over the wet one which
ii on, so as to cover it up entirely, and the
child is saved. When it wakes up both flan
nels will be dry.

Camp near Suawsville, Mar 19,1S04.
Mr. Editor. I was informed by a young
man, of undoubted veracity, thathw school
master had f'pent a whole week in writing a
communication for the "Republican," that
was to crush, with its ponderous weight, all
the veterans in, Clearfield county, and grind
to powder certain "three great big men. "
It has been said that the above mention
ed pedagogugc, while writing his communi
cation, swelled out his diminitive carcas
uoarly as larire as when he swore "he would
go to Philipsburg and give a certain deceas
ed soldier an honorable funeral, if it cost
Lim four thousand dollars out of his own
pocket." But he was saved from so de
htiufiva an explosion by being returned to
Lis bereaved pupils, after a weeks boiourn
iu. an establishment "down east." After
reading his communication, I should not be
Kurprised if he had collapsed so much that
iie coukl be conveniently hid in a knot hole
If it is true that the devil is the father of
lies he had better resign in favor of "Cop
perhead, " for there is not a word of truth
in his communication. It is false in every
r".peet. The "three great big men," re
ferred to, have not seen a Provost Marshal
kinee leaving Culpepper, Va. were not in
;-uticii of deserters entered the school
Louse quietly and took a seat without saying
anything about "Copperheads" or "desert
ers." when suddenly and "majestic in his
ftrength" rose the tall and lank form of
"Bill." His pondrous jaws began to move,
and straightway there issued forth a stream
of eloquence after this manner : "You have
come here to arrest a deserter, and you will
lisve to wade through cold lead aud gunpow
i'li , for we will defend him to the last by
these means." The ladies present retired
to their home?. The veterans replied to
''Dili' g' ' patriotic remarks. Pedagogue called
tho hou.se to order and announced "spelling
has commenced." The storm of "Bill's'''
wrath having subsided, "two great big men"
also retired. Not one word was used that
t)ulu be understood to mean "liar or "cow
ard." We are not the kiud of men that go
to church or spelling-school to manifest bra
ury, but we should not have received the
language said to have beeimsed without re
futing It. much less have been "backed
lown by a mere toy of nineteen."
I reside one mile east of Shawsville and
11 pedagogue is aggrieved by this,and wishes
to resent it. he is at libertv to call. Jobn-
w-na medicine is an excellent article, and
well calculated to make a spaniel curl his
narrative" and cry peace.
One of them, and a Veteran.
A gentleman who had the honor of pre
siding at a Sunday School celebration not
since, being a little inclined to put on
a, informed the audience, in a rather os
tentatious manner, that they would "now
we some vocal music on the brass band."
A drunken fellow, sitting on the steps
y cnurcn in Boston, the cold wind blow
"g chillingly around the corner, said : "if
ieven(hic) tempers the wind to the (hie)
uwn lamb,l wish the lamb (hie) was on this
corner."

IIOSTETTER'S CELEBRATED STOMACH BIT
TERS is one of the greatest strengthening pre
parations extant. It ia especially adapted to
those who are afflicted with the Fever ana Ague,
or any other disease arising from a disordered
condition of the digestive organs. For the Fe
ver and Ague there is perhaps no medioine in the
world equal to it. as it enters, purifies and replen
ishes the blood, which is so important to bring
about a heavy action in diseases o'" this nature.
The Bitters are now among the most popular, and
at the same time, valuable specifics in the medi
cal World. In recommending it to the public, we
are fully concious of doing them a great service,
knowing, as we do their many excellent qualities,
And sure and speedy action in all cases where the
disease is caused by irregularity of the digestive
organs. A trial will suffice for the most skeptical.

Although not disposed to favor or recommend
Patent Medicines in general, through distrust of
their ingredients and effects ; I yet know of no
sufficient reasons why a man may not testify to
the benefits he believes himself to have reoeived
from any simple preparation in the hope that he
may thus contribute to' the benefit of others.
1 do this the more readily in regard to Hoof
land's German Bitters, prepared oy Dr. C. M.
Jackson, of this city, because I was prejudiced a
gainst them for many years, under the impres
sion that tbey were chiefly an alcoholic mixture.
I am indebted to my friend Robert Shoemaker,
Esq., for the removal of this prejudice by proper
tests, and fer enoouragement to try them, whin
suffering from great and long continued debility.
The use of three bettles 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 1 had not felt for six
months" befure, and had almost despaired of re
gaining. I therefore thank God and my friend
for directing me to the nse of them.

ATTENTION, SOLDIERS
AND THE FRIENDS OF SOLDI ER3.
We Call the attention of all having relations or
friends in the army to the fact that '-HoorxAND's
German Bitters'1' will cure nine tenths of the dis
eases induced by exposures and privations inci
dent to camp life. In 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 ot
that kind can be readily cured by Hoofland's Ger
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 among our soldiers, hundreds of
lives might be saved that otherwise will be lost.
We call particular attention to the following re
markable and well authenticated eure pf one the
nation's heroes, whose life, to nse bis own lan
guage, "has been saved by the Bitters ;' -
PAiLXDELPnu. August 23rd, 1682- .
Messrs. Jones Sr Evans. Weil, gentlemen,your
Hoofland's German Bitters has saved my life.
There is no mistake in this. It is vouched for
by numbers of niy comrades, some of whose names
arc appended, and who were fully cognisant of
a!! 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 of Capt. K B. Ayres. Through
the expo sure attendant upon my duties, I was
attacked in November last with inflammation of
the longs, and was for seventy-two days in the
hospital. This was followed ty great debility,
heightened by an attack of dysentery. I was then
removed from the White House, and sent to this
city on board the Steamer 4lState of Maine,"from
which I landed on the 29th of Jhne. Sinoe 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 rot even keep a glass cf water cn my
stomach. Life conld not last under these circum
stances; and, accordingly, the physicians wh4
had been working faithfully, though unsuccess
fully, to rescue me from the grasp of the dread
Archer, fra-tkly told me they could do no more
for me. and advised rne to see 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 Stisbnrn. of Sixth
below Arch Street, advised me, as a forlorn hone.
to try your Elttfert, and kindly procured a bottle.
From the time I commenced takimr them the
gloomy shadow of death receded, and I am now
thank God for it. rettinc better. Though I have
taken but two bottles, I have gained ten pounds,
and I feel sacghlne Of being permitted to rejoin
my wife and daughter, from whom I have beard
nothing for eighteen months: for. gentlemen, I
am a loyal Virginian, from the vioinity of Front
Royal. To your invaluable Bitters I owe the cer
tainty of life which has taken place of vagne fears
to yonr Bitters will 1 owe" the glorious privi
lege ot again clasping to my nosom tnose who are
dearest to me ia life. .
Very truly yours, Isaac Malohb.
We fully concur in the truth of the above state
ment, as we bad despaired of seeing onr oomrade,
Mr. Maione, restored to health.
