notlicr regiment -vras organized here
ca Tuesday, out of tlie remaining ucat-
bed companies in camp. It is called
the 11th Regiment, P. 11. 0. The fol

Major, S. 31. Jackson, Armstrong. Lieut,
p. A. Johns, Fayette, is appointed Adju
tant. The Cambria Guards arc designated as
qx the post of honor in the Regi
ment. That they will prove themselves
iwrthy of the trust reposed in them is, I
think, altogether certain.
A. large delegation of friends from home
visited us on the 4th. It i estimated
that, including soldiers, there were seven
tkusand persons in camp that day. The
evasion will be long remembered. K.

Extract from a private letter dated
Cam? Wright, July C, 1801.
Co-. Hayes' regiment left fur Camp
Tiikius early on Monday morning, and
I. M'CalmonVs regiment came up ia the
t.u; :.nr to take their place. . In the mean
time the Cambria Guard, who had been
.via 5 in teats some two or three weeks,
concluded to try barracks awhile. Ac-
cordiDcr'y, without asking the Captain or
f-ying a word to anybody, we quietly took
isession. After we were fixed all right,
Lu-ut. M'Coy went to the Colonel in eoni
msnd and requested permission to move,
which, was refused. uBut," said Lieut.
M., 4ithe men have already done so with
out orders " So the Colonel, after giving
it as Lis opinion that "we'd do," said that
c Blight a3 well remain.
A Day at Camp Wright. Having
nothing particular to do last week, and
Eiore than a sufficiency of time to do it in,
3 piu a brief visit to our "sojer toys"
st Camp Wright. We fouud them all
ciijujing themselves hugely, aud looking
Waul heartier than when they left
tome. Good health was a perfect drug
nh taeru, inasmuch as not a pintle man
as afflicted with the slightest indisposi
un A happy faculty of being able to
''.'commodate themselves to any eircuui
s'mces was also observable about them, as
tlicy appeared as much at home in their
"qiarters" as if they had lived there for
ars. Without a single exception they
"p:essed their entire satisfaction with
Atir new mode of life, and their willing-
to remain in it until Rebellion 's
Kmpletely wiped out. They are a jolly
'J set of fellows officers and men are
;ie Guards, and rank high iu the esteem
f their fellow soldiers. As proof of this,
tness their designation as Co. A. in the
kventh Begiment the post of honor.

uliers of the regiment.) We ate with
Guards, and had ocular demonstration

pubular; we slept with the Guards, and
l!10ff that we could put in fifteen of the
eny-four hours each day with similar

XSUR3DAT:
Apologetic No paper was issued
from this office last week, owing to the
fact that out printers wero all afflicted
with a severe attack of 4th ot July, which,
effectually prevented them from giving
any attention to minor matters. Our
Teaders can console themselves with know
ing that the "great and glorious occasion"
cornea only onco a year.
THE Glcjriotj8 Fourth in Ebens
eurq: WnAT was done and vice versa.
The eighty-fifth anniversary of Ameri
ican Independence the Great and Glo
rious Occasion the Day we Celebrate
etc., etc., passed off very quietly in our
midst. Indeed, such a limited feast of
reason and such a frugal flow of soul as
was then and there put forth is seldom
witnessed in a town embracing ten hun
dred and twenty-five inhabitants and two
wards. The reason of this was simply be
cause our citizens, finding no amusement
at home, went abroad in large numbers in
quest of the article. Which was about
the most sensible thing they could have
done.
The Sons of Temperance had a pleasant
re-union in Llovd's Grove in the after
noon. Prayer was delivered by several
clergymen, and addresses made by Messrs.
D. J.' Jones, I. C. Singer, Wm. Tibbott,
and A. A. Barker. The National airs
were effectively rendered by some of the
brothers and sisters. The whole affair
was well planned and well executed, and
reflects credit on the patriotic and Union
loving confraternity.
"U e noticed several attempts to celebrate
the day after the vinous and bibulous
manner, but these were only sporadic at
tacks the cffei vescing and bubbling over
of a year's patriotism in an occasional ir
repressible individual and in no case did
th?y cause any inconvenience or raise a
disturbance.
And this is about all that can be said
on the subject.
Accident to a Cameria Volunteer.
George Sweigart, a member of Compa
ny G, Capt. Lapsk-y, Third Begiment Pa.
Vols., had his arm dreadfully shattered by
the accidental discharge of a musket,
while on the march to Martinsburg, Va.,
on the 2d inst. The American Union a
paper published at the above named place
by the division of the American army un
der Major Gen. Patterson gives the fol
lowing particulars concerning the acci
dent : Br. Jackson, the Surgeon of the
Begiment, without a moment's delay had
the wounded man carried off the road, and
under the shade of a tree amputated the
Iunb. The soldier stood the operation
without wincing, and after i' was conclu
ded was asked how he felt. ''Bully," he
answered, "but very hungry. Can't some
body give me something to eat!" Such
is the metal which composes the Union
army when can it be conquered ?
Married At the residence of the bride's
ihvr' ck:i ie mormnpr ot July 4th, by

merir of Ebensburg, to .Miss Ellen, daug

There! That's the proper way to eel
eurate tne oiorious rourtu: hc aay
seems to have been pretty much devoted
to ''Union" matters all over the country,
and oar friend Ben, ne'er behindhand,
has devoted himself, heart and soul, to a
Union enterprise of the very strongest
kind. Success to hun and his bonnie
bride, and may they live to see many hap
py returns of the day upon which they
launched their matrimonial canoe o'er the
turbid waves of life. (For the gold dol
lar accompanying the marriage notice wc

Clocks, Watches, &c. Wc would
direct particular attention to the adver
tisement in another column of Mrs. E. J.
Stahl. She has a magnificent assortment
of clocks, watches and jewelry on hand,
and her prices are such as to make it an
object to purchase. The mechanical de
partment is under the control of Mr. M.
B. M'Dowell, who is a gentleman of en
larged experience in his line of business
and fully competent to give entire satis
faction. Make a note of this.
Promoted. It gives us great pleasure
to state that our young friend, John Bob
crts, who went with the Cambria Guards
as a musician, has been appointed Drum
Major of the 11th Begiment, P. It. C.
John is a good fellow, and in this instance
is emphatically the right man in the right
place. ,
Haymaking. The hay crop of this
section of country, which is unusually
large this season, is rapidly being housed.
We will have plenty of the article and to
spare. -

.Johnstown Items. Our Johnstown
correspondent, under date of 9th inst.,
eends ua the following items. They were
intended for last week's issue, and, altho'
slightly out of date, will still repay a pe
rusal : ' .
The glorious Fourth was appropriately
celebrated in our town and neighborhood.'
The day was ushered in at about the time
graveyards yawn by a grand salute from
all the old pistols, shot-guns and muskets
that could be scared up, and from that
time until rosy dawn an incessant firing
was kept up. At 9 A. M.,'the Home
Guards, composed entirely of our German
population, paraded to the public square,
where a national salute was fired. After
th'u they repaired to the rolling mill,
where the Stars and Stripes were elevated
to the top of the stack. A meeting was
then organized, and several eloquent and
patriotic addresses delivered. The pro
gramme was varied and enlivened by the
s:nging of the Star Spangled Banner and
other national airs by Misses Emma
Bocrss, Jennie Crouse and Jennie M'
Cluskey, assisted by Capt. Smith aud Col.
Crousc. A picuic was also held at Jaco
by's Grove, at which several speeches
were delivered.
This morning, about 3 o'clock, our cit
izens were alarmed by a cry of "fire !"
The flames proceeded from a one-and-a-half
story frame house on Clinton street,
owned by Messrs. Marbourgand occupied
by Mr. Kinney as a cigar shop. The loss
is slight. The fire is supposed to have
been the work of an incendiary.
The Fourth at Wjlmore. A corre
spondent, "3IikeI," writes that the good
people of Wilmore celebrated the eighty-
fifth anniversary of our National Indepen
dence in dashing style. A Sabbath School
town, at which a large number of the pa
rents, teachers and children were present.
The Wilmore Zouaves were also on the
ground. Several patriotic addresses were
delivered, after which a bountiful repast
was served up. The balance of the day
was consumed iu various exercises and
amusements, and they returned to their
homes in the evening well pleased with
their observation of "The Day We Cele
brate." The Comet. This illustrious stranger,
which has been the subject of soruany
speculations latterly, is rapidly receding
from view, and will soon be lost sight of
altogether. Notwithstanding this, 0. B.
Jones, of the Ebeusburg Boot and Shoe
Store, still continues to sell hats and caps,
boots and shoes, ready-made clothing, &c,
at the unparalleled prices of yore. Drop
in aud see his assortment of goods.
Camp Wright. We see by the Pitts
burg Dispatch that the guns for Camp
Wright were distributed on Mouday.
They are the old style flint-lock muskets
altered to percussion, and the same au
thority says that considerable dissatisfac
tion existed among the men on ascertain
ing their quality.
The Weather ha3 been unusually
cold hereabouts during the past week.
In fact, so cold has it been that fires and
overcoats have become rather common
place commodities. The question now is,
lias the comet anything to do with these
atmospherical chauges ? If so, comet
should be abated forthwith.
TintiD Begiment. The term of enlist
ment of the three months' volunteers is
about expiring, and it is expected that the
Third regiment, to which are attached
three of the companies from this county,
will disband on the 20th inst.
GoDEi. The Lady's Book for August
is on our table. It is a splendid number,
and should find its way into the hands of
every lady in the country. Godeyr like
Ileidsick, gets better and better as he
gt'ows older.
Peterson. The August number of
this magazine has been received. Every
lady who wishes to he au fait of the mys
teries of the toilet should subscribe for it,
as it is the acknowledged criterion in
such matters.
Camp Meeting. The United Breth
ren in Christ will hold a camp meeting on
the premises of Mr. llileman, near 3Ie
chanicsburg, Indiana county, commencing
on Friday, August 1G, 18G1.
Tgga. "More than seven hundred of the citi
zens of this county are now in the tented
field, and at least two-thirds of them are Dem
ocrats." Dcm. y Sent.
Don't believe it. Show us "the papers"

Iron City College. Tho following
extract from a letter of one of the recent
graduates of the Iron City College, Pitts
burg. Pa., speaks for itself :
"Every young man who would thor
oughly prepare himself for business should
avail himself of the advantages here af
forded. Students are not learned, but
taught, and that with all the thoroughness
and precision the subject demands, by the
most skillful and accomplished instructors,
who give their special and constant atten
tion to their pupils. Everything is treated
in a scientific and business-like manner;
while the Penmanship, which is taught by
the greatest living master of the art, is
unequaled by anything in the country.
The College is pre-eminently worthy of
public patronage." A. L. Barstress.
Chaplain. llev. J. B. Pyatt, former
ly of this place, ha3 been appointed Chap
lain of the 8th Begiment.

CARD.
WlTMElt'S BbIDGP.
Lancaster Tn. July 3D, 1860.
Messrs. Evaxs and Watsox: Gentlemen
The small size No. 1 Salamander safe which
I purchased from your agent, Mr. Adam IC
Ba-r, in Lancaster City, on July 20th, ISL8,
has been subjected to a very severe test,
which it withstood in a most satisfactory
manner. Thi3 Sife, containing all my books
together with va'u .ble papers belonging to
myself and some to my neighbors and friendt--,
andrepreseting a val te of over Twenty Thous
and Dollars, ($20,000) was in my Mi'll which
was destroyed on the night of the 27th of Ju
ly, 1860, and passed through the fiery ordeal
unscathed. The Safe was on the second floor
and fell to the basement of the Mill, and was
subjected for six hours to an intense heat
among the ruins, which wasgreatly increased
by the combustion of a large quantity of grain
confined within the brick walls. After the
fire the safo was opened and the books and
papers taken out in a state of perfect preser
