Chit-Chat with Our Readers. -The
snow hereabouts at the present time
is upwards of a foot in depth. Per se
quence, the sleighing, or "sledding" as it
is practically denominated by our agestric
brethren is most excellent. In fact, we
think we never knew it better. Winter,
that is to say, cold weather, usually com
mences here in November, still snow in
any quantity is scarcely ever to be met
with until after New Year. This "is the
case note it didn't use to be so. We
recollect when the snow invariably com
menced falling the first of December, and
continued falling until good sleighing was
the result not many years agone, either.
Nor, however, although we have the
biting blasts and the blue noses and tin
gling finger-ends peculiar to the season,
yet .the snow fails to come to time on or in
any wise near that particular date. .Why
this is why we of these Utter days are
obliged to wait a month longer than our
fathers did before being allowed to engage
in tho first sleighride of the season i3 a
question we will not attempt to determine.
Perhaps it is owing to the nearer approach
of the sun to the earth ; perhaps to an
atmospherical change induced by the de
struction in a measure of the aboriarnal
forests until quite recently surrounding
us, or to some other chemical cause or
combination of causes equally plausible;
perhaps the introduction of the Iron
JIor.se into our midst had something to do
with it. No matter it is so.
As before remarked, tho -snow is now a
foot deep. . The township roads in this
section being as a general thins; miserable
thoroughfares at best, and more particu
larly nuisances after the fall rains, our
farmers wisely hold back the bulk of their
'projuce" from market until the advent
of "sled ling," when they confidently count
upon being able to transport larger loads
cf the sime with greater celerity, thus
mkiiig up for lost time. The result is,
when the "sledding" comes so also comes
the produce. It is coming now. In new
sleds and in old sleds, in sleds with beds
and sled? without, in sleds with iron run
ners and sleds with wooden, in one-horse,
two-horse and four-horse sleds, ir, sleds of
all sorts and sizes comes the produce.
It is a well attested fact that at no time
of the year is so much business of a mis
cellaneous character done in ye ancient
village as during the continuance of this
ame "sledding." Wherefore, blessings
unto the snow. It serves the farmers a
good turn, distributes a share of its favors
upon, those who are not farmers by caus
ing "times" to be "brisk," and gives a
strong impetus to industrial pursuits and
occupations generally. Kind snow !
The sleighing is superb. We know,
for we tried it on the other evening. It
13 very good. Wherefore, "superb" is not
too strong a word to U3e In the connection.
Reader, did you ever go sleigh-riding t
If not, you have lived many winters in
Vaia. Sleigh-riding is the attic salt, or
rctic salt, or words to that effect, which
eeaions the hyemal porridge. At least
KA is our opinion. You ought to in
dulge a few times, and become convinced.
The only thing that can possibly disturb
csr otherwise exceedine sound slumber
...
nights is a vision wherein a cutter and
fa?t hone, buffalo-robes and sleigh-bells,
bankets, fur tippets, whip, gauntlets,
tot punch and hoops are jumbled together
13 inextricable confusion. When we be
come the victim of a nightmare of this
description, we arc wont to awake at about
&e critical juncture when the inevitable
m comes in, to find ourself falling out
fbed, with the pillow tightly clasped in

ten-feet drift!" or on the top of a log, or
down a steep declivity inta a mill-dam, to
the detriment of bone and broadcloth.
Otherwise, it will most likely prove oth
erwise. We have been upset before now.
Frequently. We expect to be upset again.
Once, after dumping us out of a sleigh,
the horse attached refused to wait until
we had recovered control of the lines, but
incontinently took to his heels, accelera
ting his speed at each jump, and leaving
us to nothing short of "the consolation of
walking back home" a distance of say
five miles. During our abortive chase
after the fugacious quadruped, that happy
conception of the poet involuntarily came
into our mouth, to wit:
"Oh 1 it is gay to run a cutter.
But 'tisn't gay to cut and run."
Another pleasing reminiscence we recall
is touching an excursion of probably
twenty-five lads and lassies, in quest of
fun and the like, in s large two-horse
sleigh. Upon the rear seat of the convey
ance indolently reclined three young ladies.
Ascending a steep hiil, the sleigh struck
a log with so much force as to shatter the
former cot little. At this juncture, the
seat in question snapped in twain, the
young ladies, obeying the laws of gravita
tion, suddenly plouted out backward into
the middle of the road, and Well, we
didn't stop to count the number of somer
saults taken !
Ah ! gay old, glorious old Winter !

Married : On Wednesday, 30th ult.,
at Elizabeth Furnace, Blair county, by
Joseph Morrow, Es , Mr. Jacob Set
tlemyre, of ELensburg, to Miss Catha
rine Eos eli ne, of Allegheny township,
this county. The bridegroom here has
long been in the employ of the editor of
this paper as a laborer, and we know him
to be an honest,. hard working man. Now
that he has secured a partner to partake
but never waste his wealth, or stand with
smile unmurmurirjgly by and lighten half
his poverty, we hope he may never be
otherwise than happy. As a sentiment,
we would offer the following :
True as the needle to the pole,
And fixed aud constant as a clothes-line,
May bis affections' fondest goal
Be e'er the bosom of his lloseline.
Escaped from Jail. We forgot to
mention last week that Smith and Cupp,
the two young men from Johnstown con
victed at our last Court of riot, &c, made
good their escape from jail on or about
Christmas. This thing of thus allowing
justice to be cheated of her dues is be
coming quite too common of late. We
hear every few weeks of prisoners escaping,
none, or very few, of whom are ever re
captured. In fact, it appears to be about
as easy to get out of jail as to get in.
Some remedy for this unwholesome state
of aflairs should be found, or the attempted
punishment of criminals in the county
becomes a mere farce.
Elections. The elections of officers of
the Eben6burg & Cresson Railroad Co.
and of the Cambria County Fire Insurance
Co., to serve the ensuing year, were held
on Monday, and resulted in the re-election
of the old boards of both companies. No
opposition candidates were run.
All correspondents are informed that
we take no notice of communications
unless the real name of the authos accom
panies the same.
Etchings. The Ladies' Fair, for the
benefit of the Catholic Church of Johns
town, closed on Saturday evening. We
did not hear how many greenbacks and
postage Btamps were fobbed. The total
number of interments in the Sandy Vale
Cemetery, Jounstown, during the year
1863, was one hundred and forty-seven.
A movement toward the erpr.tinn nf
a new Town Hall, to take the place of the
one burned on Christmas eve, is iq. prog
ress in Johnstown.- The 28th regt. P.
V., Co. F cf which is mainly composed of
Cambrians, is now in Philadelphia. The
men are each to receive a thirty days'
furlough. The remains of the gallant
Lieut. Peter Kaylor, killed at the battle
of Riggold, Ga., were brought home and
interred at Loretto, this county, last week.
The thermometer stood at 10 below
zero here, on Saturday night.
Married : In Wilmore, thi3 county,
on the 31st ult., by the Eev. I. Hackitt,
Mr. Henry A. M'Pike, of Altoona, to
Miss Annie Ward, of the former place.
We congratulate our friend "Mac," whi
lom of this county and an editor, on the
successful termination of this little affair
of his. Now that the deed is done, and
two willing hearts indissolubly linked in
the strongest of all earthly ties, may both
bridegroom and bride go on prospering
and to prosper until a green old age,
happy and contented, attests a life well
spent.
Died : At the Mansion House, Pitts
burg, on the evening of the 22d ult.,
Charlie Linton, only son of John H.
and Sue P. Clark, aged 2 years, 4 months,
and 24 days. The remains of deceased
were interred in Sandy Vale Cemetery,
Johnstown, oa the 24th.
Died: In Brookville, Pa., on the 20th
ult., of diptheria, Alice Blaxd Scott,
daughter of Mr. John Scott, editor of
the Brookville Republican, aged 17 years,
7 months and 25 days.
Married: On Monday evening, 4tb
inst., by Rev. P. M. Garvey, Mr. J. Frank
Condon, Suft. of Common Schools for
this county, of Johnstown, to Miss IIelen
Downey, of Indiana county.
Tns Saturday Evening Post. The
proprietors of The Saturday Evening Post

Ilenry Peterson. It is emphatically a lady's
magazine, well, stored with fashion plates,

Althongh not disposed to favor or recom
mend Patent Medicines in general, through
distrust of their ingredients and effects I
yet know 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 mar thus
contribute to the benefit of o'.hers.
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 chiefly
an acloholic mixture. I am indebted to my
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

Da. C. M. Jacksox Dear Sir : While in

taken with a severe diarihoea, which seemed
incurable, and which greatly weakened me.
When we reached Martinsburg, I feared that
I should have to come home j but noticing
some of your Bitters in the store of Mr. H. II.
Pricein that town, I purchased a supply, and
on taking it was speedily restored to health.
The diarrhoea vas quickly checked, and I
experienced no return of it. A number of
my comrades who suffered in the same
manner and from the same cause, with whom
I shared th Bitter3, join me in this certificate.
I expect lo return to the seat of war with the
Legion, and I shall certainly take a supply cf
the Bitters in my knapsack. I wo not be
without it for its weight in gold, particularly
on going into a limestone reton
