CORBESPONDENCE OF THE JOUENAL.
Letter from Philipsburg, Pa.
Philipsburg, Pa., Aug. 2i, 1804.
Dear Journal : Feeling somewhat out
of sorts last week, I did not "come to time,"
but by the blessing of the Great Disposer
of all good, I am again permitted to resume
the 'mighty weapon'' and wield it, though
weakly it may be.
Our citizens are all astir this morning,
this being the first day of our August Term
of the Court of Quarter Sessions for the
county of Centre. '"Going to Court," is a
bout the last of the old landmarks, that
have not been usurped, by the advent of
the rail road. '"Going to the City," or
going a trip of a hundred miles or less, that
formerly was attended with weeks of prep
aration, is now a common place occurrence.
It used to be, that w hen our merchants
were making ready to go to the city to pur
chase their goods, everybody in town was
aware of the tact, and when the day of de
parture came, relatives and fiiends bid him
good bye, with as much solemnity as if be
were going on a perilous journey, and they
would never '"look on his like again." But
now he picks up a small carpet bag, takes
the cars, goes to the city, buys his goods,
and is back again, often, none but his own
household knowing of his being away from
town. Not so in "going to Court," though.
It is still attended with some bustle. A
trip of twenty-eight miles across the Alle
gheny, is yet among the things that were,
and he who has any litigation on hand, is
necessitated to '"get a chance" to ride over
land, though thanks to the Rail road, there
is always a public conveyance to get there ;
but if he is a juryman, or must appear at
the opening of the court on the first day,
to go !y rail, he must start on Saturday
and travel some sixty miles of a round.
There are several criminal cases from our
town to be tried this court, one of which, is
the skirmish between the handy hued scout,
and the "Reserve" of the oth'P. V. R. C,
noticed in this correspondence a few weeks
ago. Justice having tied "this neck of tim
ber," the scout wended his way across the
mountain to Bald Eagle Ridge, in search of
the Goddess. He found her, perched, in her
solitude, on this side ot the romantic Raid
Eagle Ridge, and there at her shrine, pour
ed forth his wrongs, in such a sympathetic
style, that Lycurgus might have envied, and
the Goddess gi anted him a warrant, on the
c' arge of assault and battery. The gallant
boy of the old 5th, got wind of the writ,
and promptly appeared before justice Bra
din, of oltr town, with a host of backers,
and Altered bail for his appearance at court.
The teout was now outflanked. lie male
the brilii.int manouvre away across the
mountain-, to get the warrant, thinking that
the constable would be compelled to deliver
the "Reserve," before the justice who is
sued the warrant, the justice of course must
hold him to bail or commit. The "Re
serve," he (the scout.) knew had no friend
there that would go his bail, and by this
splendid piece of stratciry, he hoped to see
him placed ' in durance vile."' But the
scout failed, ingloriously failed, to carry his
point. Had it been a success, the "Re
serve"' would not have remained, looking
through the "tei'Jof diamonds," longer than
a bail-piece could be executed, and sent to
the jailer. It is to he hoped that the court
may have a little light thrown on the sub
ject of disunion language, that has time and
again been uttered bv this scout, and which
will develop itself in the examination of
witnesses on this trial ot assault and battery.
The '"Reserve," we must all admit, violated
the law of the land, and is amenable to the
law, but got d may come of it, and a "Dan
iel come to judgment" be the winding up
of the scout. And we will ever pray.
The examination of the draft made some
weeks ago, and which I noticed in my last
as postponed, went oil" on the 8th and 19th
insL, at Bellefonte. The men, who were
the holders of prizes, are all at borne again.
Those who were not exempted, socked the
greenbacks. Xot a man, as far as I can
learn, out of the forty-two drafted, went in
to the service.
We have had several showers of rain du
ring the the hist ten days, which has had
the effect of reviving vegetation, and the
crops of corn and potatoes. Leroi.
President Lincoln evidently has struck the
golden mean in his general policy. It isob
jected to alike by extreme conservatives and
extreme radicals, on the one hand because
he requires "the abondment of slavery,"
and on the other because be evinces a deter
mination not to disregard proper guardsand
checks in the exercise of his vast powers; but
the Union men endorse and approve his
course and will sustain him alike by furnish
ing recruits to the army, and by giving him
their suffrages for re-election.
Late news f rom the front dist loses the
fact that the rebels are mining exclusively
along the lines of our fortifications, bo tar,
all attempts to repeat on us the Petersburg
earthquake have been rendered abortive by
. . . i i i .-,
the vigilance or our commanuers, w no nave
' - . t
successfully tapped the rebel adits.
Fonr trims cantured bv the rebels from
Carlin's and the Maryland batteries, on the
l:i to, reltftl raid towards Linchburg and recap
tured by General Averill at Moorfield, have
arrived in Wheeling. They are to be sent
to the Pittsburg Arsenal for repair.
