The year which is rapidly drawing to a close has proven rich in blessings. Du ring its continuance, wc have had meted out to us a full measureof success in the war being waged for the perpetuity of great and eternal principles j our various industrial relations have been prospered abundantly ; the earth has yielded a fruit ful harvest ; sickness and pestilence have been withholden ; and harmony prevails throughout jour borders, excepting where, by the exceeding wickedness of designing men, a rebellion, now tottering to its fall, still rears its hideoue head. In view of this gratifying state of affairs, the Presi dent of the United States, by general proclamation, named and set apart Thurs day, 29th inst., as a day whereon to return thanks to Almighty Goi for blessings conferred, and to humbly solicit a contin uance of the same ; and the Governors of all the loyal States have endorsed and sanctioned the appointment. .To-day, than, we will witness the sublime specta cle of a Nation joining hands as ono man aiid going forth to an acknowledgment of dependence upon the Most High. - To-day twenty millions of voices will' unite in hinging psalms of thanksgiving that lie hath vouchsafed unto us mercies without number, both as individuals and as a peo ple twenty millions of tongue? will hum bly bessech IJini to encompass us with the shadow of His hand for all coming time. Oh I it will be grand a proud, haughty, avaricious jt may be, nation, in unity of purpose and singleness of heart, willingly bowing dotvu and worshiping the Giver of all good. And, as it hath been said that a thankful heart is incense iu Ilia eight, ami. that the prayers tf.the righteous availeth. much, what may we not hope for as the beneficent result of the acknowledgment that we are God's, of God's, and in God we ground our only hope for safety and deliverance ! The people of Pennsylvania, especially, lave reason to thank God for "the crown ing mercy by which the blood-thirsty nod devastating enemy was driven from oar soil by the .valor of our brethren" as the Governor fitly expresses it. The dif- crence between "the situation" as we now see it and as it would have been had the enemy been victorious at Gettysburg is too palpable to require comment. Those brave men who helped us to this signal deliverance from the hands of the foe, be they living or dead, should not be forgot ten. Living, a prayer should ascend from every household and closet for their safe- memory should be reverently honored. Let the day be remembered. At one time a society, engineered by omen, had an existence in this place, the object of which was the relief of our sick and wounded soldiers in hospitals. It was a Good Samaritan society, indeed, relieving the sick, comforting the dis tressed, clothing the naked, and minister 's in many ways to the ncce?3ities of &e unfortunate. After a short period of fcefulncss, tho society died a natural faith. It went under no relief society w a long time has had a habitation or flame in our midst and as many sick and Vmnded soldiers languish in our hospitals tow as ever. This is wrong : the society ould -be re-established. : Similar socie I63 exist in almost every town and neigh tehood throughout the land, and why here ? Surely j pin this contest we . Te u great interests at stake as other pities, and appreciate as highly the erism and self-sacrificing devotion of "oldicr as other communities. Just Preaeiit,,when many thousands of our u are eking out a miserable exu e in the Richmond military prisons, dying by inches through want of ; J paries of life, the absence of an WiaT7 here ia PainfullJ manifest! the society in existence, our chari ' lecds and x?nr& rl fta toytem, and with system it wero vV? realize n fund the proceeds of m.gut bnng gladneSiI many a UT. r nea. The Kebel authorities "SmCed their" willingness to allow io be forwarded from the North 1 to our prisoners at Richmond, and several boat-loads have been dispatched thither. The supply, however, is hot equal to the demand. In view of this fact, and not forgetting that other fact that we have in our various hospitals thousands of help less beings who depend upon the women of the loyal North for comfort and assis tance in their trials and tribulations, we make the suggestion that the Soldiers' Aid Society of Ebensburg be resuscitated.. The women earl cfo nothing more thev should do nothing less. :.. Sheriff's Sales.

' t LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE. .. JoHNSTOWN,"iVbt. 23, 18C3V ; Dear AUegJtanian : A fearful accident occurred at Conemaugh station, two miles above this place, on Wednesday of last week, which resulted in the death of four men and probable fatal injury of two others. The facts, as near as I can ascertain them, are as follows s An engine which had been used for the purpose of assisting heavy trains over the mountain, was being brought out of the engine-house to be attached to a train of stock cars, which were destined for the east. : In the rear of- these trains 7 there is' generally a .car for the accommodation of , drovers who accompany their etock, and it was while the engine was approaching, this train that from some cause its boiler exploded, throwing the engine a distance of thirty feet in the air, in its descent striking partly upon this drovers' car, and partly upon a truck loadedwith oil.' Of three persons, in the car, two were instantly killed, and the' third mangled in such a horrible . manner - that he expired a few hours after the occurrence. The engineer, fireman and flagman were on the engine at the time of the explosion, the first . of whom was scalded and otherwise so badly injured as to cause hii death the next day. The fireman was thrown several rods, also . badly scalded, and it ia feared internally injured. The flagman was se riously hurt, and his precarious condition precludes much hope of his recovery. The names of the killed and injured , are as follows: John Hodges, Ivy., and A. J. Cole, Toledo, 0-, drovers ; Nathan Rosen fuchs, N. Y., pedler; and James Finley, Altoona, engineer, killed. Charles Dona ho, of Ildlidaysburg, Cieman, and James Mills, of Centreville, flagman, are the names of the injnred. '. Mr. Thos. Doran is about commencing a new map of thu city. The changes and improvements which have occurred since this gentleman got up his first map, make it desirable to have a new one, and he will doubtless meet with liberal encouragement in his undertaking. Rev. A. J. Hartsock has accepted the chaplaincy of the 110th IV V., and will report for duty in a few weeks. A pro tracted meeting is at present going on in hi? congregation here, at the close of which I understand the Rev.i gcnileman leaves. The officera and men of the 110th can congratulute themselves upoii having secured the services of Rev H., as he stands sans jwer ct sans reproche in this neighborhood. An oil-house belonging to the Rolling Mill, and kept for the purpose of storing the oil used in greasing coal cars,' was burned, with its contents, last week. Several barrels of oil and tar fed the flames.

Although not disposed to favor or recom mend Patent Medicines in general, through distrust of : their ingredients and effects ; I yet krvow of no sufficient reasons why a man may not testify to the benefits he believes himself to have received from any simple preparation, in the hope that he may thus contribute to the benefit of others. , I do this the more readily in regard to Hoofland's German Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M. Jackson, of this city, because I was prejudiced against them for many years, under the impression that they were chicily an acloholic mixture. I am indebted to mv friend Robert Shoemaker., for the removal of this prejudice by proper tests and for en couragement to try them, when suffering from great and long continued debility. The use of three bottles of these Bitters" at the beginning of the present year, was followed by evident relief, and restoration to a degree of bodily and mental vigor which I had not felt for six . months before, and had almost despaired of regaining. I therefore thank God and my friend for directing me to use them,, , . ...... J. NEWTON BROWN.

When we reached Martinsburg, I feared that I should have to come home .but noticing some of your Bitters in the store of Mr. U. II. Price, in that town, I purchased a supply, and on taking it was Epeedily restored to health. The 'diarrhoea was quickly checked, and I , experienced no return of it.
