Joseph LANSBEttRV. We see a para
graph in several of the Pittsburg papers an
nouncing the capture o the notorious -Joseph'
LansLerry, at Lake' City, Elk coun
ty, while purchasing a suit of clothes at
a store. "Wath'nk this is a mistake. A
man named James Price, who had been ar-ro.-t.od
for arson in Karthaus township, this
county, several weeks tynce, and fhot the
constable in the leg and macb his escape,
was arrested, we understand, at a clothing
store in Lake City, some ten or twelve days
as-o, and is now in our county jail. This ev
idently is the man to which reference is
made. Lan.slerry has not been heurd of for
a long time, and there is little doubt but
that he has made his way into Canada, or
some other Northern province.

COEEESPONDENCE Of THE J0UENAL,
Let'er from near Sichmoiid, Va.
Headquarters Light Battery A, 1st)
Penn'a Artillery, 24th Army Corps, r
Manchester, Va., May 3d, 18G5. ; )
DearKoav: Although, perhaps, some
what inopportune, on aojount of the time
which has elapsed, yet I propose, as briefly
as i can, to contiuue ruy narrative of the op
erations of this organization since I last ad
dressed you. . ; - .
On the 24th of March we were ordered
to have everything' in readiness for an im
mediate march, but after waiting for some
hourav the orders were countermanded, and
we have since learned that it was the inten
tion to have us sent to the left with Sheri
dan and Meade. But for the time being
we were allowed to remain unmolested- '
On April 3d however, by the successful
operations on the left on the 1st and 2d,- the
way for our advance was opened. Late in
the afternoon of the 2d 1 information was
brought in by- deserters,."and ronfirmed,by
our scouts, that the rebel works on our front
were being evacuated, 'andf orders were at
once issued for an early advance-on the fol
lowing" morning, and at the hour designated
we were on the New Market' road with faces
towards Bichmond. Fifteen minutes m.arch
brought us to the first line of rebel works;"
and these passed without the sign of a lreb'
we continued forward with that buoyancy of
spirit, which could only arise from the. self
evident fact thjrt we were about to realize
the full fruition of every hope indulged in
during the vicisitudes of three and a half
years of active, crujel aud relentless war -that
of entering in triumph the rebel capi
tal. At a. m. on that glorious mom,our
battery filed within the preci-icts of the cov
eted, city, being the second to enter the
post of honor being reserved by the Chief
of Artillery for his own battery, whose gui
dons were the first artillery colors Hung to
the breeze in that nest of treason. I need
not repeat- how very soon after the occupa
tion of the city, the old order of things were
reversed, nor with "what fiendish malevo
lence the most business ; part of the plaee
was fired by the retreating traitors, leaving
desolation and famine to greet our approach.
Every one is now familiar with all this, or
have been crowded from the memory by
rapidly occurring events. I could not but
think, at the time, that the day of our en
trance into Bichmond was the proudest pe
riod of my lite, but the glory of that hour
wassoon destined to be absorbed!y the more
resplendent lustre of the achievements of
the army -on the left, under the immediate
direecion of Grant, which, by the most in
defatigable exertions, succeeded in intercept
ing the "retreat of the army of Lee, and
forced that wily chief at last to succomb to
superior skill resulting in the surrender of
his whole army on the 9th.
Vet scarcely had the reverberations of the
cannon's notes of rejoicing ceased, and while
yet the exultant spirit oHmr army here was
at its bight for what had been done, and the
bright prospect the event had given us of
an early and honorable peace, the astound
ing intelligence of the assassination of the
President of the Unied Suites; burst upon
us like a clap of thunder from cloudless
sky, so incredituble did the report at first
appear ; but when the fearful reality was
verified by official despatches from the Sec
retary of war, astonishment gave way to "al
most uneontrolable indignation, and loud
an J deep were the execrations heaped upon
the assassin who could thus with fiendish
aud insatiate thirst imbue his polluted hands
in the blood of -the; Nation V beloved chief.
Iu an evil Iourvour great aiid good and
beloved President, the commander-in-chief
of the armj' and navy, was stricken down
by the violent and releut'ess hand of treason
and just as the country was emerging from
the toils of a rebellion unprecedented in his
tory ibr persistency in its unholy work, and
when our chief executive was just beginning
to witness with evident satisfaction the tri
umph of right over wrong, of freedom over
'Iavery, then thirty millions of people were
left t lie mourn the calamity as the greatest
single misfortune that ever befel any nat'ot
or any people. Not simply has Abraham
Lincoln passed from earth to Heaven., but
the recognized and adored head of a great
nation has boeu severed from the national
body, iu which was centered the hopes of
millions d" his admiring and confiding coun
trymen, and in whose wisdom was reposed
theimplicit faith and ability as an instru-.
ment in the hand 01 Uod, in whom he re
lied, to bring the country swiftly into a state
of tranquility and peace.
Tn the providence of 'that God, who con
trols and oirects the destinies of nations as
of men, the great and good man who has
lust , fallen at his post, was placed at the
heliu of the ship-of-state at a time when the
waves of sectional fanaticism threatened to
enculph her 'n the maelstrom of destruction,
and who, by his coolness in the hour of dan
ger, and by his foresight and his unexampled
integrity, was largely-instrumental, perhaps
more than any other man, in guiding that
ship through the stormy , billows of more
than four years of incessant war, and then,
just as the shore of peace was glooming tip
under the soft shadows of safety and repose
and promising a permanent relaxation from
the toils aud ares and dangers of his ardu
ous labors,' which bore him down with their
crushing weight,and against which he strug
gled with almost superhuman efforts, he is
smitten to the earth with the impious hand
of the assassin, ana the American people
overwhelmed with grief and indignation at
the heartlessness of such a damnable act.
No words of mine, no 'thoughts that I
con'd pen, can sufficiently express the deep
abhorrence and indignation that wells up
within my heart at the contemplation of so
sad and atrocious an event; and on its an
nouncement here among the soldiers of the
24th corps and, indeed, among all classes of
every distinction, was the signal for the
most universal outspoken condemnation
which lias ever been my fortune to witness.
It seemed tome that as if by magic, all
distinctions of caste, all animosities between
people of different sections of country spring
ing out of the rebellion were at once level
ed, and all, all partook of the solemn grief
of the nation.
Leading rebels here, those who: have an
eye single to their personal safety, and who
have been largely influential in directing the
blows of treason at the heart of the govern
ment, were earnest in their condemnation of
the inhuman deed,and regarded it as though
their bright star of hope of pardon for their
crimes was stricken from the constellation
of their angels of mercy. Well da this class
of people. realize that, in the great and mag
nanimous heart of Abraham Lincoln which
was so imbued with the spirit of mercy, and
so foreign to every impulse of resentment
towards those who had deluged the lard
with torrents of the best blood and caused
tears of grief and anguish to moisten every
hearth-stone throughout the length and
breadth of our vast domain these red-handed
traitors had.eterythmg to hope for which
Christian justice could accord them; and
with this faith they rested satisfied that
their enormous crimes would be cancelled
by their future good behavior towards au in
dulgent government, and which "they knew
was strong, enough in its inherent power to
nurse the adder that would strike it to the
heart, or punish it at will.
' But why should we murmur at the decrees
of God? If in His inscrutable wisdom He
has removed the honored head of the nation
froni among us, as an additional chastise
ment for our national sins, so He in His
wisdom will provide likewise for another ru
ler who will carry out the inflexible purpo
ses of His own will, and this, nation will
move on until the mission required of it is
entrreTy fulfilled. - ' "
And now, this daT, when-the remains of
the honored dead aTe being committed to
the silent tomb, let us swear anew our alle
giance to the nation he loved so well, and
died to preserve, that by no act of ours will
stern, inflexible justice be withheld from one
who dares to lift "the sacriligious hand of
treason against the fame, the honor, or the
life of the Republic , '
. I have learned through private sources,
that some there are in Clearfield county, who
gave open expressions of their joy at the e
vent I blush tor the memory of such, and
fain would I for the reputation of my adop
ted county, screen them from the obloquy
which will ever attach to names so degrad
ed, and souls so blackened by the blight of
treason, but I prefer to let them ;bear the
burthen of their impious aud . infamous
words and thoughts themselves, which will
reflect upon their memories the blackness of
darkness forever. .-..
Since our arrival here, I embraced an op
portunity offered, and accompanied a party
to the old battle-fields of Meehanicsville,
Gains' Mills, Fair Oaks, and Cold Harbor,
of 182 going by way of the former place
and returning by the Nine-mile road, cross
ing the Chickahominy at New Bridge. I
noticed many things connected with those
spots which were familiar to me, and which
brought to my mind a vivid recollection of
the scenes which were enacted there my
self being an humble actor. We returned
to the city weary from long riding, but am
ply repaid for all our fatigue. - '
'We are now pleasantly situated at Ches
terfield Park, in the suburbs sf 3Iancbester,
opposite the city of Richmond. We are be
ginning to get tired doing nothing, and now
that the war is virtually ended, we turn our
thoughts homeward, and long for the time
when we may return to the peaceful avoca
tions of life. Yours truly, w. It. B.

BROWNINGS
EXCELSIOR COFFEE
Whilst trvinff Coffee of all the various brands.
Remember -BKOWyiNG'S EXCELSIOR" at the
head it stands.
True, it's not like others that are "SOLD EVER. Y-
WJIEKK."
A little stretch, we all do know, good goods will
easily bear.
(But a stretch like this "sold everywhere" is
very apt to tear.)
Now, I can safely say, without any hesitation.
There's none like "BROWNING'S EXCELSIOR"
in this cnlishtened nation.
Skilled chemists have not found a Coffee from any
store . .
Possessing the same ingredients "ai "Browning's
Excelsior."
Nor is there any one, in or out of the Coffee trade.
H ho knows the , article from wnich .Browning s,
. Excelsior's made. :
I'm told its made from barley, rye, wheat, besns,
. and peas; - .
Name a thousand other things hut the RIGHT
ONE if you please. .
But with the coffee-men I will not hold contention
For the many, many things they say too numer
ous to mention.
Whilst they're engaged in running round from
store to store
To ltarn the current wholesale price of "Brown
ing's Excelsior." '
Some who know my Coffee gives perfect satisfao
tion.
Have formed a plan by which they hope to cause
a quick reaction.
The case 'tis with a few ; no doubt 'twill be more
To name their Coffee after mine, (BROWNING'S)
EXCELSIOR. .
Some Bay their's the only brand that will stand
a rtady test.
Now, try a little of them all see which you like
the best;
Three years have past away since first -1 soM a store;
Never have I in your paper advertised before;
Nor would I now, or ever consent to publish more,
If. like some used by "everybody," "sold every
where,'.' in '-every store."
A trade like this I do not wish; the orders I
oould not fill ;
The factory all Jersey's land would take leave
not a foot to till.
My trade is not so very large ; still I think I have
my snare ;
But, reader, you must rest assured, 'tis NOT
. :, "SOLD EVERYWHERE."
