Thursday the 18th day of August, has been
designated as the time for meeting in Coun
ty Convention to nominate a ticket. A gen
eral attendance is requested.

A "Wild Cat Killed. Barclay lloyt,
living in Taylor township, Cambria county,
caught a catamount in a trap a few days ago.
The animal had become famous for its rava
ges and destructiveness, and Mr. Hoytseta
trap near the place, and soon caught the
varunnt. The

in proportion.
e learn that bauiuel fchope, a young
man who wan in our employ formerly, and
who went to the army Jast spring, was wound
ed in the head in a skirmish near Petersburg
suurg
, and
on July 2Sth. He died the same i
. 1 WW
was buried by nis comrades. Jle was in
the three-months service previously, and has
been with Gen. sheridan in all his campaigns
during the present summer. He was a
brave and efficient soldier, and at all times
ready to discharge the duties devolving on
him. Let him rest in peace.
To our Patrons. As the 10th volume
of the Journal will close on the 25th of
August, we would say to our patrons, and
especially to those who are one year and
over, in arrears, that we will receive 1,50 in
payment of their accounts up to the close
of the volume. After the 25th of August
we will charge all at the rate of $2 00 a
year. We" will be compelled to adopt this
course owing to the high price of all kinds
of printing materials, and everything else
wemse. If ourfrieuds will comeup prompt
ly We will be able to get'along without rais
ing the price of our subscription but oth
erwise we must do so. In fact, nearly ev
ery paper in the whole country has advanced
in price,, while we still adhere to the old
rates. Our friends should remember this,
and send the amount due us without fur
ther delay.
Col. W. E. Hartshorn. :.
Mr. Row : The many friends of Col. W
Ross I fart.hom will be gratified to learn,
that, immediately on his return to the army
of the Potomac, he was mustered in as Col
onel of the 1 90th Penn'a volunteers, (eom-
1osed of the re-enlisted men of. the Penn'a
leserves,) with commission dated June Cth,
1JSG4. lie is now senior Colonel, and acting
Brigadier in command of the 3d Brigade 3d
Division 5th Corps. Capt. J. Elliott Kratz
er and Lieut. John W. llazlett, both w ell
and favorably known in Clearfield county,
are on his staff. May success attend the
commander and staff of the gallant 3d Brig
ade composed, in part, of the true men of
the old Reserve Corjs of three years' fight
ing reputation. ours, Packer.
Col. Hartshorn (late Major) of the ist
Rifles had charge of the old Bucktails ever
since the battle of Gettysburg, at which time
Lol. lay lor was killed and Lieut. Lol iNiIes
so severely wounded that he had to leave
the service. Immediately after the nine
days' fight in the Wilderness, Gen. Meade
promoted Major II. to thu position of Colo
nel, with the request that Gov. Curtin issue
a commission in accordance which has been
done. No doubt, higher honors await the
pliant Colonel. Ed Journal.
To Enrolled Men.
Below we give several matters of informa
t;ou, which will be of interest to all persous
who are enrolled and liable to draft.
The Prove st Mashal Qeneral directs that
all men who maim themselves for the pur
pose of escaping the draft, be held by the
respective JJistre? Provost Marhals, and
their cases reported to him.
Men furnished under the call of July 18th,
whether enlisted for one, two, or three years,
aswell as all excess or deficiency of three years
men on calls heretofore male, will count as
ni'tn Jijrman.
The equalization of the amount of milita
f' sm-ice rendered by the differnt States
and parts of States will be effected hereafter.
. The President of the United States hav
ing issued a proclamation ordering a draft
for 5 H l.oo men, to take place within fifty
?ays from date of order, it is desirable that
u oruer to have a mst assignment oi nuotas
under this call, those of this Congressional
district who are enrolled as liable to milita
ry duty, and who have good claims for ex
rotion, should present thmselvei to the
-ooard of Enrollment at Wateford and have
lh6ir names stricken from the list. Many
Persona are probably enrolled who will be
exempt for manifest qermanen disability,
over age, &c, if they present their claims
n?w and be erased from the enrollment, it
uj lessen the quot of the sub-District to
Jw;h they belong. It b the privilege adn
duty of all interested to give this matter im
mediate attention.
..lhe quota assigned this Congressional
tnct under the President's call for 500,
men, dated July 18, 1864, is 3,126.

QOBBESPOITPENOE OF TEE JOURNAL.
Letter from Philipsburg, Pa.
Pihlii'sblro, Pa. Aug. fcth, 18G4.
Dear Journal : lhe dav of redemp-
tion is past, ana nobly did old Hush town
ship, redeem herself on Tuesday last, by
giving the rirst Amendment, then voted
on, a majority of fifty-seven being a gain
ot iorty-two over Curtin s vote Jast tall
The vote stood 98 for, and 41 against, the
first Amendment; becond, 100 for, 40 a
gainst; lhird, 07 for, 40 against. Prom
these figures it appears, that the First A
menament was the one, on which a strict
i . ...
party vote was polled, the ultra cops going
dead against it to a man. so lar as thev vo
ted. A number of the members of this
"Castle" or ' 'sub-Division," making it a
nice point, to get down to the polls, to vote
aoout, ten minutes too iate. Uthers sua
denly had business that called them awav
from home, and they could not get back in
time. They regretted it very much, but
business before pleasure, you know, is the
old maxim. And those lellow citizens
who arrived at the polls a little too late
seemed to be very much chop-fallen, that
they were thus deprived of the right of suf
frage. Any port in a storm. There was
not much electioneering done against the
amendment, openly ; but the faithful were
all properly equipped behind the throne
No man that had any regard for himself and
his posterity, could be so mean, low, and de
graded, as to try to induce his neighbor, to
vote against giving the soldier in the field
an equal right with a qualified voter at home,
Yet there were some men mean enough to
do so and not only that, but there was not
a ticket "For the Amendments," to be had
at two of the hotels of our town, though
cart-loads of tickets reading "Against the
Amendment," were strewn over their bar
rooms, thick as "autumnal leaves of vallum
brosia." And these same landlords, make
the loudest external appearance of being
the soldier's friend. Acts speak louder than
words, and this last act of theirs caps the
climax.
V lth the hgurcs ot this vote, we car. ar
rive at a perfect conclusion, that we have
forty-one voters in this election district who
are not friends of the soldier, and who cast
the mightiest right they possess, to prove
them guilty, rorty-one citizens, enjoying
the lull and tree right to vote, voting against
allowing a citizen, enjoying the same ful.
and free right, because he is away from
home, lighting the battles ot his country
Tell me that such men are Democrats. No
far from it ! Talk office speech, free press.
and all the vocabulary of copperheads, but
this one act takes them all down and proves
to a perfect demonstration, what I have al
ways asserted, that they are disloyal to any
measure or action which genuine Union men
support. But with all their wire-pulling,
nasties, suo-i'ivisions, construing the
Amendment to the ignorant, that if it car
ried, it would give the colored soldier a right
to vote, the Old Keystone has nobly stood
by her gallant sons, who are defending our
country. Well done ! ever loyal, good and
true 1 ennsylvama.- jLonsr mav thv banners
wave on the side ot truth, justice and right
The drafted men, noticed in my last, left
on the morning of the 3d inst, to report at
Bellefonte. They reached Martha hurnace
Station, B. E. V. R. It.; where they receiv
ed a dispatch, that they might return home.
I have not learned the exact cause of the
dispatch, but think it is from some defect,
or mistake in our townshm not havin? re
ceived a full credit for the men previously
sent. J. hey came home in high glee. All
who were not certain of havincr some ill that
human flesh is heir . to, that would exempt
tnem, nad the rerruisite number ot rrreen-
backs, to commute them from the r.ttend
ance at the military ball, they were su Jden-
ly invitea to except three, oi tho Jackv
jh luers or ncxers. j nese tnrec i:ouir. c nv-
alnc, andtrallant follows, havimr more f-e
sight than is commonlv riven to man. con
eluded that they would report at a int
nearer tne iortn i'oie, and I ,s on hand to
act, in case the Canadians m.ulo a raid
They will of course, not take advantage of
the detect, and return to the bosoms of
their families. Poor fellows ! how indis
creet they were, to thus skedaddle from
their dear wives, fond little ones and haopy
homes, and all coming from the world-wide
fact, (they having left behind them, that
which will follow their posterity, down to
the latest period of time) that they are cow
ards, and unworthy the respect ot an Amer
ican citizen.
The expose of "our veritable William"
published in your last issue, taken from the
lloUnUiusbarn Kegixter, created quite an
excitement among the "faithful." The de
mand for the Journal on Thursday, the day
it comes to this 1. O., was without a prece
dent in the paper line. It was extensively
borrowed, and most especially bv the cons.
Subscribers had hard work to keep track of
their Journal, so numerous were its readers.
There is a great deal of sickness, of that
kind incident to this seasou of the year,
prevailing in our town and vicinity. Though
not ot such an epidemic nature, nor so fatal,
as the sickness of 1854 a period long to be
remembered by the citizens that lived here
at that time, as but few, if any, families es
caped its dreadful visit Leroi.
For some time past it has been known
that, large bands of well-armed and organiz
ed out-laws existed in Montgomery county.
Illinois, who meditated mischief. Recently
their movements have become so audacious
and threatening as to demand the attention
of the authorities. Last Saturday the Sher
iff of the county, with a posse, started after
the outlaws with the design of attacking and
dispersing them. While in pursuit, his
forces was suddenly fired upon from ambush
by the enemy. One of the Sheriff a men
was killed, one wounded and two missincr.
The man killed was shot with three bullets.
At the time the train passed Litchfield, at
six o'clock p. m., random fighting was still
going on. The guerrillas nuraber about 300,
and have their camp near Van Burenburg,
sixteen miles from the Terre Haute and Al
ton railroad, in a thick forest They, are
the same persons who attempted to rob a
paymaster on the road, a short time ago, by
throwing the train off the track. There is
a hich excitement in Montgomery and Bond
counties over the fight of Saturday, and six
hundred citizens had gathered to attack the
guerilla camp
The burning of Chambersburg, Pennsyl
vania, making some three thousand people
homeless, is one of the events for which the
Chicago Convention was probably postponed.
A few such events will probably supply a(
party with sufficient principles to last them
through the Presidential campaign. 1
