Correspondence of The Alieghauiaru
The Paymaster lias been acig- us,
scattering broadcast over ilie Camp the
Terv welcome promises of Uriels Samuel
t0 pay his defenders for services which
tare been rendered, or for the time occu
pied" in the preparation to properly dis
charge the duties which belong to a sol
dier's career. The "Silver G rays," al tho'
tybaVe hot 6eeh here for so long a
"tiae 83 some others, received a share of
t'r.2 pllol The Government has done the
thing handsomely,, so fr a3 the privates
-re concerned, having paid them from the
djv of enrolment. The commissioned
oficers have not fared so welk The Gen
eral Government fixes the date from
which payment is calculated at the time
such otficers were mustered into the ser
vice of thtf United States. It is to be
toped that the Legislature, now in ses
ticn, will make an appropriation to pay
the officers for th5 time between the dates
of enrohucnt and mustering in. This
would be but just to a class df men who
hare everted themselves with all the en
'erey with which they are gifted, to recruit
and bring into the field a body of citizen
soldiers that are a credit to the Keystone
State.
The volunteers encamped here have
beefi paid up to the 1st day f I ho present
year. In the beginning of March they
will be paid for the months of January
sud February. It is a most gratifying
fact, that the greater purt of the funds re
ceived by the wen has been remitted
louu Indeed, inhere is little need for
lioaey ih oaiiip,beyoTii the tiifiing amount
rccj'i'.Tfl for ''neTFry incidentals. The
Government 'provides ail the substantial
in eal'in', 3 well as comfortable clothing.
If luxuries are to be cujoyed, they must
be fiupvliou ct the expense of him who
iniy Imve the benefit of thesn, and not
from the public store roosi.
Much speculation is now afloat as to
the future movements of the soldiers in
this camp. It is generally credited that
Governor Curtin has made a proposition
to the War Department, offering twelve
Regiment., full and complete, for any
'Southern enterprise that may he within
the programme of the General Govern
ment, ihe only condition connected
lth this tender is, that these Regiments
r.sv be i-rr.t tszollior throughout the
v-..ir.f.tign, and that it may be recognized
'i a Pc niLsylvania Division. This proffer
highly creditable to the wise head and
ratrio.ie heart ti the Governor. Loyal
n ho is to the -country as a whole, he
oc noC lec? t-ighi of the honor and pride
of oar good ?A OoreTnonwealth. As a
ienrsyivcnian, thengh rmmbie 1 may
k?, I rh.nk him for thi3 manifestation of
a'chfiil care over those who have chosen
as tVe Executive of tha State. It is
ciJantly hs deiirn to adopt, in this mat
ter, the policy which so opportunely eal-
1 the l'ennylvat5i Reserve Corps into
thence. J hat was st mot wise iore-
'.Vyaght, which discerned, in the distance,
te urgent demand for apronspt supply of
To!ur:tc-crs, to take the places made vacant
cj the expiration of the term of enlit-
kent of the three months' men. Tht;
AitDinistration at Washington, having
' ready had so strong proof of Governor
' urtia's prudence, will undoubtedly give
hiltc-r offer a favorable consideration.
:emo pcnny-a-liner, writing from Wash-
;cgioa to the Xew York press, has made
grossly false statement in relation to
th.i volunteers stationed in this camp.
J1 proiaulsatcs a deliberately concocted
by stating, that the soldiers here had
tagagc 1 in riot and revolt, in consequence
''t the non-payment of their respective
'itas against the Government. Prior to
"e appearance of the Paymaster on Mon
r'y last, there was not the least appear-
cc of outbreak. After the distribution
been made, there ran through the
np a perfect "buzz" of satisfaction, in-
''-uueg, that the men appreciated the
banner"' as well as the "matter" of
i'-ywent.
-amn Curtin is under the immediate
pmmand of Col. Meridith and Lieut. Col.
ftnan, than whom there are not more
'-4 ,aut end courteous officers in the voi
der PorVjce prompt iu the condem
Bwn nnd punishment of flagrant yiola-
g-soi th Rules and Regulations of the
T31?, tliey are equally- ready in discern-
;aid arprovinir merit, wherever and
whomever found. The "Silver
have heard of the arfrobation ex-
PH by i,PiG trScf r., and, let mo as-
XHURSDAY:::
sure you, Ihoy 'cab and; do f ully appreci
ate the compliment, and respect the source
whenco it rmanated.
In my previous letters, I have confined
myself in the main to "matter sand things"
in which tho "Silver Grays" are interes
ted. I must plead guilty to tho charge
of selfishness, in thus restricting lr.y "re
marks" to our own circle, while bur good,
whole-souled and soldierly County-men,
forming a part of Col. J. At. Campbell's
Regiment, are quartered within a stone's
throw of our barracks. This Regiment
is officered by men of sterling worth, in
whose present and future the People of
Cambria County feel great interest. I
propose, in hiy succeeding correspon
dence, to extend myself beyond our own
quarters, and lock into those of our Cam
bria neighbors. I feel well assured, that
neither Col. Campbell, Lieut. Col. 31c
Dermitt. Major Linton, Adj. Rose, nor
Captain3 IJonaker, Suter, Lapsley and
Graham will charge me with being imper
tinent, if I refer to them, collectively and
individually, in niy "paper messengers"
to The AUeglianian.
I am reminded, after scanning the pro
ceeding paragraph, that cur County vol
unteers have a kind of "buttou-hole"
connection with another company in this
camp. I allude to Capt. Wm. R. Sprague's
company, from the adjacent county of
Bedford. Of this corps, D. W. Mullin,
is 1st Lieut., and J. Conley 2d Lieut.
Lieutenant Mullin is a Brother of your
much esteemed townsman, A. C; Mullin
Esq.
Captain Spragucs coiripany is attached
to the 101st Regiment, (Col .Wilson,)
which 13 now under marching orders. It
is really one of the finest in camp, and
does much credit to the County from
which it hails: It is natural that, next
to our own, we must feel solicitous for the
honor and welfare of our neighboring
Counties. In the company of which I am
writing, I recognize trusty champions of
old Bedford. .
The incident to which I alluded at the
close of my last letter, took place in this
company. Yit7iout authority, I may be
pardoned for making brief mentioi of it.
As I have stated, the 1st Lieut, and A.
C. Mullin are brothers. The latter, du
ring a recent visit, impelled by that fra
ternal love which, when displayed, honors
our common nature, presented in a pri
vate, though formal manner, a beautifully
embellished sword, a3 a token of brother
ly affection. The donor and recipient
were alike moved by the ceremonies of
the occasion. But who can dive into the
human soul, and look upon its workings,
when incited by a luve implanted there
by the Great Author cf our being?
There is, cn such occasions, a mutuality
of sentiment that some may experience
but none describe.
.For Lieutenant Mullin, jour corres
pondent entertains a regard commensu
rate with his acknowledged worth as a
gentleman and soldier. May the 'token"
received from his brother be used in pun
ishing the enemies of his Country, and be
only sheathed, when victory shall have
perched upon the "Stars and Stripes."
This is the sincere orison of a
High Private.
Terrible Accident. An accident of
a singular as well as heart-rending charac
ter occurred ia Susquehanna township,
this county, last week, by which a man
named Silas liallou lost his life. The
unfortunate man was engaged at the time
iu assisting to run a saw-mill belonging
to Mr. John Lantzey, and during one of
the cold days in the bsginning jof the
week, had occasion to descend to the lower
portion of the building, to remove a mass
of ice which impeded the revolutions of
the wheel. While thus engaged, the pro
prietor, who was unaware of Mr. B.'s lo
cality, set the saw in motion. The result
was, that he was caught end drawn in by
the wheel, thereby being crushed and
bruised so Badly that he survived but a
short time. The deceased was probably
fifty years of age, and was, we believe
unmarried.
Military. Capt. Wm. Linton's cav
alry company, we understand, is rapidly
filling up, and no doubts are entertained
that the requisite complement of men will
speedily be obtained. A squad of some
forty men are to be sent to camp, near
Philadelphia, during the present week.
The company, when full, will be attached
to Col. Frishniuth's 12th Pennsylvania
cavalry.
Discontinued. The publication of
the Blairsville Record has been discontin
ued, the editor, Mr. James F. Campbell,
having become one of the editors of the
Greenburg RcpuUican. We wish him
snccos in his new polish.
LlTTLB CAMfeRIA AND IIE WAR.
Speaking of the cavalry company now be
ing recruited in this county by Capt. Wm.
Linton, the Ilollidaysburg fstahdard last
week observes :
We thought that the "8ilvcr Grays'' were
the last draught of .the military seine in "Lit
tle Cambria," but it appears that there are a
few more "bold soldier boys" still left there.
True for jou a few more of the same
sort still left, ready to be drawn bri, oh
Eight Cambria county ha6 now probably
frorn eighteen to twenty huh'drud soldiers
in the field. Of Ibis number, a portion
are in South Carolina, a portion on the
Potomac, some in Kentucky, some in
Missouri, some at Fortress Monroe in
fact, wherever any fighting is going on or
is at oil likely to go on, there is the Moun
tain County represented. This state of
affairs is certainly eminently flattering to
our local instincts of patriotism and love
of country, and goes far to show that the
mountain fastnesses are now, as they al
ways have been, the strongholds of Liber
ty. Notwithstanding the already large
quota of "brave hearts and ready hands"
that have gone forth from our midst,
however, we scruple not in saying that, in
ease of an emergency, we could, with a
couple more draughts of the "military
seine," easily double the present number.
Are you not proud of your sister coun
ty, neighbor ?
Fatal Railroad Accident. Ah ac
cident, resulting in the death of an engi
neer named Saml. Eicher, and the serious
injury of three or four other railroad at
taches, occurred dh thfe Pennsylvania
Railroad on Saturday night. The par
ticulars as we have learned theth are about
a3 follows : In ascending the heavy grade
between Wilmore and Cresson, this coun
ty, a second freight train was used to
assist the progress of a heavily laden one
in front. When the top of the grade had
been reached, the "pusher" of the second
train came. in rather violent contact with
the first, with the effect of throwing the
locomotive off the thil-k. The man Eicher
was caught between the locomotive and
tender, and was injured to such an extent
that he died in a few hours. His remains
were taken to Pittsburg for interment.
Mr. William Bruce, of this county ihe
engineer of the train was so severely
scalded that his life is dispaired of. The
other parties were severely but not dan
gerously Injured.
The Silver Grays. The IIarri?burg
Telegraph of a recent date published an
extract from "Our Own Correspondent's"
letter, concerning the above named body
of veterans. Thi3 was highly creditable
to the Silver Grays, but we observe,
among other things, that the extract in
question teas not "creditable" to the ex
ettions of our friend "High Private'
Furstay, neighbor ?
Sleioiiino. During fhd last few days
the denizens of the "Mountain Village"
have enjoyed most excellent sleighing.
The snow is about one foot in depth, with
a very good prospect of a steady increase.
The young folks are enjoying themselves
hugely, and we have heaad of several
sleighing parties on the tapis.
Dead. The woman Manan, whom we
noticed last week as havihg been seriously
injured on the railroad near Johnstown,
has died front her injuries. She had been
addicted to the immoderate use of liquor,
and was Under its influence at the time of
tho accident; Another warning !
National Foundry. The Cambria
2'ribune says that the latest reports indi
cate that the chances of Johnstown in
regard to the matter of the location of the
National Foundry, are "as good as those
of any other place."
This is cheering.
Fire. We learn from the Ilollidays
burg Standard that the house of William
Ake, in Tuckahoe .Valley, Blair county,
was totally destroyed by fire on Sunday
night week, the family barely escaping
With their lives.
KtECTiONi The election of officers for

Candlemas Day. Sunday was Can
dlemas Day, and if legendary lore can be
relied on, we are to be favored with a cold
snap ot six weeks or thereabout before
the breaking up of winter.
