Fort Donel 60.v A friend has. handed us a copy of the Daily Pantayraplin paper published fit Rloomington, Ifliuois in -which ap pears an extended account of the battle of Fort Donelson, as detailed by a citizen of that place who visited the field shortly after the fight. The 20th Illinois regi ment, it will be remembered, bore a con spicuous part in the thickest of the fray. The Orderly Sergeant of One of the com pauie3 composing this regiment is Mr. Ptolla Evans, formerly a resident of this place, but for several years past of Bloom ington. The correspondent, after descri bing the battle-ground and other minutio?, gives the substance of a conversation had with the Captain of Holla's company. la the course of this he inquired concern-, ing the courage of several acquaintances. The Captain answered him as follows : They are all brave; I can't'eay more for we than for another;" and voluntarily aJJeJ ubut I must say Holla Evans is ike most cool and deliberate man in battle lever heard of!" This, from the brave Captain of a brave company, is certainly a high vOHipliiutnt. We are confident that the recipient was altogether deserving of it. The relatives and friend of Mr. Evans in tin locality will feel a justifiable pride in htaring this flattering report from him. Eye Coitee vs. Rye Whisky.

As we last week no ted, the Ebensburg and Cresson Railroad was. again put in operation on Monday. Although but brief notice had been given of the intention of running the cars, a very flourishing business in the way of transporting passengers to and from Court was done. . On Monday of the present week, the first freight train arri ved here. This consisted of four cars, which were loaded and sent off the same day. We understand that between sev enty and eighty other car-loads of shocks, lumber, &c, will be shipped during the present week ! This is doing very well for a start, and demonstrates conclusively that Our Railroad is destined to be a pay ing institution. The present rate charged per car to Cresson is ten dollars. The residue of- the road, from its pres ent temporary terminus to the Depot, is now fully graded. The iron will be laid immediately upon the advent of Spring. The finishing touches are also about being put on the Depot building. . Blair County Items. The citizens of Hollidaysburg are memorializing Con gress to locate the National Armory and Foundry at that place.

Stemmer, of Johnstown, aged about eleven years, was burned to death on Fri day eveuiug, 28th inst., under the follow ing circumstances : The little girl was holding the candle while an elder sister was pouring carbon oil from a jug into a small can, when by some means the flame communicated to the oil. exploding with a loud report, and inflicting injuries upion the little girl which resulted in her death next morning. Strange to say, the other girl escaped without injury. Saw Mill Burned. A mw mill be longing to a Mr. Fulmer, in Richland tp., was destroyed by fire on Saturday morn ing, 1st inst. The fire originated from coals falling from an open stone hearth upon the mill. The loss involved the mill only, no lumber or other property suffering: in the conflagration. So we learn from the Cambria Tribune. TriE Cambria County Toor House.

Pretty soon, we shall have occasion to ask ourself "The friends of our youth where are rthey ? The participants in our pleasures, in those halcyon days of old When youth was bold, And Time stole wings to speed it: . And youth ne'er knew how fast Time flew Or, knowing, did not heed it Whither have they vanished ?" In this event, in all probability, Echo would feel called upon to answer "Gone and got married I" Nevertheless, we hereby tender our heartiest congratulations to the happy couple, hoping they may enjoy an endless career of prosperity and sunshine. And furthermore, when the rose-tinted dream begins to palo before the accumulation of the musty cobwebs of Time, may their love for each other undergo no change but only grow the deeper and stronger.

PROSPECTUS OF THE CONTINENTAL MONTHLY. There are periods in the world's history marked by extraordinary and violent crises, sudden as the breaking forth of a volcano, or the bursting of a storm on the ocean. These crises sweep away in a moment the landmarks of generations. They call out fresh talent, and give to the old a new direction. It is then that new ideas are born, new theories develcped. Such periods demand fresh ex ponents, and new men for expounders. Thi3 Continent has lately been convulsed by an upheaving so sudden and terrible, that the relations of all men and all classes to each other are violently disturbed, and people look about for the elements with Vhich to sway the storm and direct the whirlwind. Just at present we do not know what all thi3 is to bring forth ; but we do. know that great re sults must flow Irorn such extraordinary com motions. At a juncture so solemn and so important, there is a special need that the intellectual force of the country shouldbe active and em cient. It is a time for great minds to speak their thoughts boldly, and to take position a3 the advance guard. To this end, there is special want unsupplied. It is that of an In dependent Magazine, which shall be open to the hrst intellects of the land, and which shall treat the issues presented, and to be presented to the country, in a tone no way tempered by partizanship, or influenced by fear, favor, or the hope of reward ; which shall seize and grapple with the momentous subjects that the present disturbed state ol ailuirs heave to the surface, and which can not be laid aside or neglected. To meet thi3 want, the undersigned have commenced, under the editorial charge of Charles Godfrey Lelaxd, the publication of r. new Magazine, devoted to Literature and National Policy. In Politics, it will advocate, with all the force at its command, measures best adapted to preserve the oneness and integrity of these United States.Jt will never yield to the idea of any disruption of this Republic, peaceably or otherwise: and it will discuss, with hon esty and impartiality, what must be done to save it. In this department, some of the most eminent statesmen of the time will con tribute regularly to its pages. In Literature, it will be sustained by the best writers and ablest thinkers of this coun try. Among its attractions will be presented, in an early number, a New Serial of American Life, by Richard B. Kimball, Esq., the very popular author of "The Revelations of Wall tStreet," "St. Legtr," Ac. A series of papers by Hox. IIorack Greelt, embodying the dis tinguished author's obser-vationson taegrowth and development 01 the Great W est. A se ries of articles by the author of "Through the Cotton States," containing the result of an extended tour through the seaboard Slave States, just prior to the breaking out of tho war, and presenting a startling and truthful picture of the real condition of that region No pain3 will be spared to render the liter ary attractions of the Continental both bril liant and substantial. The lyrical or descrip tive talents of the most eminent literati have been promised to its pages ; and nothing will be admitted which will not be distinguished by marked energy, originality, and solid strength. Avoiding every influence or asso ciation partaking of clique or coterie, it will be open to all contributions of real mrit, even from writers differing materially in their views ; the only limitation required being that of devotion to the Union, and the only standard of acceptance that of intrinsic ex cellence. The Editorial Department will embrace, in addition 10 vigorous and fearless comments on the events of the times, general gossip with the reader on all current topics, and al so devote abundant space to those racy ssc- iniens of American wit and humor, with-jut which there can be no perfect exposition of our national character. Among those who will contribute regularly to this department, may be mentioned the name of Cuarles I Brown (Artemus Ward), from whom we have promised an entirely new and original series of Sketches or Western Lifi. The Continental will be liberal and pro gressive, without yielding to chimeras and hopes beyond the grasp of th age ; and it will endeavor to rehct the teelintrs and in terest of the American people, and to illus trate both their serious and humorous pecu liarities. In short, no pains will be spared to make it the Representative Magazine of the time. &IJI131M: l nree Dollars per year, in advance (postage paid by the Publishers ;) Two Copies for Five Dollars ; Three Copies for Six Dollars, (postage unpaid) ; Eleven Copies for Twenty Dollars, (postage unpaid) Single numbers can be proenred of any News dealer in the United !?tate. The Knicker bocker Magazine and the Continental .Monthly will be lurnished for one year at Four Dollars. Appreciating the importance of literature to the soldier in duty, the publisher will send the Continental grati, to ny regimfnt in active service, on application being made by its Colonel or Chaplain ; he will also receive subscriptions from those desiring to furnish it to soldiers in the ranks at half the regular price ; but in such cases it must be mailed from the office of publication.
