The Cambria County Fair ! On
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of
mxt week, the 1st, 2d and 3d proximo,
the Seventh Annual Exhibition of the
Cambria County Agricultural Society will
1 held. It has been deemed expedient,
notwithstanding the "Hard Times" and
the War excitement,to make this announce
ment, from the fact that the Harvest this
fjason baa been unusually plentiful, and
other pursuits prospered in a similar man
mer. Owing to sundry reasons, all of which
it is unnecessary to here recapitulate, the
success of these Fairs for the past two or
three years has "not been exactly what
could be desired. In other words, they
have been "fizzles." This is wrong. A
Fair, when properly conducted and hav
ing its several departments well managed,
isa benefit to any community. And more
especially is it a benefit to an agricultural
community. By meeting once in a while
md comparing notes as to the different
methods of farming, much valuable infor
mtion, otherwise unavailable, can be
picked up.
As it is probable that the future action
of the Society will hinge on the reception
tf this Exhibition that is to say, that it
fill go on prospering and to prosper
should it be a success, and vice versa
should it be otherwise it is essentially
seccssary that the People take some in
terest in the premises. Let them lend
their aid and countenance, and the exper
iment will be reduced from au uncertainty
u? a permanent institution.
Tie managers under whose auspices the
Exhibition is being gotten up are gentle
men of indomitable energy and enterprise,
aod sill leave nothing undone to secure
it? complete success. - The premium list
offers inducements for competition in al
most every conceivable branch of indus
try ; nd best of all the premiums trill
piithdy all be paid.
Thi Annual Address will be delivered
til the last day. by 11. L. Johnston, Esq.,
of this place. Those acquainted with the
gentlemin's qualifications will readily see
that an intellectual treat is on the tapis.

JWdbe,
A New Crotcijet "Silver Greys
There has been some considerable talk
latterly on the question as to whether the
Government would or would not be obli
ged to resort to a draft to secure a suffi
cient number of soldiers to prosecute the
great struggle we are now engaged in to
a successful termination. Judging from
the alacrity with which the late requisi
tions are being met throughout the loyal
States, however, we incline to the opinion
that the Government can command an al
most unlimited number of men the en
tire male population of the North capable
of bearing arms, should it become neces
sary. To show the spirit that animates
our people, read the annexed card issued
by three well-known patriotic citizens of
this county :
The undersigned have been authorized by
Governor Curtin to raise a volunteer company
of Infantry, for service in the present war, to
be composed of men at least forty-five years
of age. No person under that age will be ac
cepted as a member of said company. All who
wish to join this company will please apply
to the undersigned. The crisis demands that
every man should do his duty. Turn out,
then, Silver Grays ! Let us not let the boys
do all the fighting. William Palmer,
James Murray,
Gideon Mahlett.
"We understand that the above company
is being rapidly filled up, and that it will
soon have its full compliment of "Silver
Greys." Good !
The Wuite Township Infanticide
Case. Our readers will probably recollect
the particulars of the above horrible affair,
an account of which we published at the
time of the occurrence. It is the old sto
ry loving not wisely but too well, and
endeavoring to cover up one crime by the
perpetration of another.
The defendant in the case, Ann Ilart
zell, a young woman of some 16 or 17
years, was brought to trial during the
recent session of our county Court. The
counsel for both the prosecution and the
defense embraced some ot the ublest law
yers at our Bar, and the trial occupied
the major part of three days.
After a thorough and careful investiga
tion into the facts, the jury, after due de
liberation, returned as their verdict that
the defendant was "guilty of murder in the
second degree " and the Court shortly after
sentenced her to undergo an imprison
ment in the "Western Penitentiary for a
term of seven years.
The trial elicited a large share of pub
lic attention, and while all lament the ne
cessity that consigns any human being to
a "living grave," no one questions the
righteousness of the punishment in this
case.
Didn't See It ! We overheard a spir
ited little conversation the other evening,
going far to show that military matters
still receive their due share of public
attention in this community.
A. chauced to meet B. on the street,
and not having seen him for several days,
inquired a? to where he had been.
"Out .in the wilderness, recruiting,"
returned B.
"Recruiting!" said A., rather surprised
that his friend, who is a confirmed inva
lid, had embraced the profession of Mars;
"You recruiting! the devil! "
"No," said B., "recruiting my health !"
Whereupon, in view of the length,
breadth, depth and general profundity of
the sparkler, both parties incontinently
"smiled."
Our Railroad. The work of laying
the iron on the Ebensburg and Cresson
Railroad is progressing rapidly, some
three or four miles of said road being al
ready completed and in running order.
Weather permitting, in six weeks, or two
months at the furthest, the Iron Horse
will have found his way to the Mountain
Village. And then hooray ! won't Eb
ensburg shake herself and spread herself,
and take long and rapid strides forward !
We think so.
Surgeon. Dr. It. M. S. Jackson, of
Cresson, this county, has been appointed
Surgeon to one of the Pennsylvania regi
ments now organizing under the late re
quisition. He is abundantly competent
for the duties of the pot.
ArroiNTED. Capt. G. Nelson Smith,
of Johnstown, has been appointed .an As
sistant Quartermaster of Volunteers.
Capt. S. was formerly editor of the Eclio,
and is an inveterate Democrat.
JBSy We have failed to receive a letter
from our Camp Tenalley correspondents in
time for this week's issue. We hope they
will manifest themselves in season for
the next.
jgSf-Itis currently reported that Maj.
Richard White, of this county, has been
commissioned to raise a regiment of in
fantry for the war.
Our Outside. The outside of to-day's
paper contains a charming little poem
from the accomplished pen of Miss Louise
E. Vickroy, entitled "The Last Day of
Summer." Our readers, we are sure, will
unite with us in the hope that Miss V.
will long continue to contribute just such
gems to our columns.
We also publish an interesting paper
to School Directors and Teachers, from
the pen of the County Superintendent.
We commend the article to the attention
of those to whom it is dedicated, with the
suggestion that after reading it they act
on the many sensible hints it contains.
A choice variety of other reading mat
ter will be found elsewhere, which will
well repay a perusal.
A Sad Affliction. The Cambria
Tribune relates the following distressing
case of family bereavement : Three chil
dren of Mr. Peter P. Lehman, residing in
Richland township, this county, a few
miles from Johnstown, were taken sick,
died, and were buried within a week !
The eldest, and first to die, was aged over
14, the next 7, and the youngest and last
nearly 4 years. The last two died and
were buried within three days ! The dis
ease was putrid sore throat.
Died Xear Hamilton, Ohio, on Saturday,
10th ult., John R. Lewis, Esq., aged about 40
years.
Mr. L. had been terribly injured a short
time previous by being run over by a wa
gon, the team of which was running away
-the injuries then received resulting in
his death. He formerly resided in this
place, most of his early life having been
spent under the roof of his uncle, Richard
Lewis, since deceased. His friends and
acquaintances will deplore his sad demise.
Died On Sabbath evening, the 22d inst.,
Mauy, wife of John Rodqlrs, Sr., aged about
tt vears.
The deceased was in the enjoyment of
her usual health until an hour previous to
her death, when she was attacked by apo
plexy, which, in a short space of time,
terminated her earthly career. During
her life she was universally beloved, and
her sudden death will bo mourned by all
who knew her.

make a note of the fact, as it is only by
prompt attention to such matters, that the

OUR JOHNSTOWN LETTER.
Correspondence of The Alleghanian.
Johnstown, Sept. 24, 1861.
Within the past three weeks, the fol
lowing companies have left and passed
through our town for the Col. Campbell's
Cambria county regiment:
Capt. P. Graham, fifty men.
Capt. Jno. P. Suter, seventy men.
Capt. J. II. Lapsley, thirty-five men.
Capt. W. B. Bonaker, seventy-five men.
Capt. E. Yutzey, one hundred A thirty-five.
Capt. Jno. II. Hite, one hundred and ten.
The two latter companies were recruited
in Somerset countyy and were a splendid
looking set of men.
Capt. Michael O'Connell's company,
numbering about sixty men, was also re
cruited here for the above regiment ; but
owing to some misundsrstanding, on its
arrival at Harrisburg it was attached to
another regiment.
Quite a number of recruits have been
sent on from here for Capt. Skelley's cav
alry, Capt. Brookbaiik's infantry, and the
regular army.
I learn that Col. J. M. Powers regi
ment is nearly full. The Rev. 13. L. Ag
new, Pastor of. the Presbyterian Church
of this place, goes as Chaplain for this
regiment.
Politics is very dull in this section.
The war seems to engross the sole atten
tion of everybody. Yoder.

A CARD.
Witmer's Bsidge,
Lancaster Tp. July 30, 18G0.
Messrs. Evans and Watson: Gentlemen
The small size No. 1 Salamander safe which
I purchased from your agent, Mr. Adam R.
Barr, in Lancaster City, on July 20th, 1858,
has been subjected to a very severe test,
whicb it withstood in a most satisfactory
manner. This Safe, containing all my books :
together with valuable papers belonging to
myself and some to my neighbors and friends,
and represeting avahie of over Twenty Thous
and Dollars, ($20,000) was in my Mill 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
