CniT-CnAT with Our Readers.
During the past week, we have been en
joying weather of almost every imaginable
size, shape and complexion. "Wc have
taJ snow, suggestive of Edgar A. Poe
and of two in a bed o' nights ; we have
hi rairi, suggestive of rafts gliding to
market adown the Susquehan', of leaky
roofs, and of umbrellas; we have had
shine of both the sun and moon persua
sion suggestive of chip hats, copperheads
coming out of their holes, lemonade, trout
hing, maple sugar, and of partnership
walk3 out the plank road into green fields
after supper ; we have had storms, sugges
tive of well, of anything except of going
out of doors. Furthermore, we have had
mud. We are sorry to say we have got
this latter yet badly. We expect to
lave it for some time to come. TLis is
about the season when that commodity
does most abound, not here alone, but
everywhere; therefore, in this particular,
ve are not unique. We have got a good
word for our mud. Unlike that of certain
localities we wot of, it dees r.ot stick closer
than a poor relation, neither is its touch
especial contamination. On the contrary,
it is of the earth earthy, and not of filth
filthy. It will easily rob oft. In this
respect it differs materially from our moral
t'emishes. Just here we desire to enter
our protest against their way cf doing
lasiuess down at Pittsburg. When it
commences thawing there, subsequent to
i "freeze," the scavengers go to work and
cut a channel of about a foot in width in
eeh of the gutters, so as to afiord ready
fcss for the melted' water. This han-
tel often becomes closed with floating
ice, or coated over with slush, and a per
son of unsuspicious turn of mind would
readily cemmit his whole weight thereto
upon the presumption that ii wa3 solid
surface. We know. We had an extra
touch administered to our caukios the
other day, and started tiown town for a
promenade. Didn t go further than the
Srst of these channels we have spoken of.
Oar fixed purpose was to go over the
crossing, but instead cf that we went in.
Like maDy another, we became the victim
of misplaced confidence. Thereby, that
"extra touch" was effectually eradicated
'-a dead loss of ten cents cash, to say
Jothing of a promenade gone to thunder.
Besides, our boots have savored ftrongly
f mackerel and coal oil ever since. We

has been a juicy wee, so to speak.
f;nt it blew, then it thew, then it suew,

ep out of strong drafts. That's our
vice. You can get the gum shoes at

a!J necessary to enlist. This leads us to

t0 them is. dollars and dimes, bread
and butter ; therefore, why not ? Bless
them ! They are a fine old institution,
are doctors, sometimes unappreciated, es
pecially when one feels like kicking
physic to the dogs, but occasionally looked
up to as ministering angels and the sole
stay of perishiDg humanity. How could
we get along without them ? Echo an
swers, no-how ! Our hearts, beating fu
neral marches to the grave, were untrue to
their legitimate functions if they failed to
quiver with gratitude to the doctors.
May they never disagree I
Apropos of the fraternity, we hear a
good story, which we think has never
been in print. Once upon a time, the
services of a certain M. D., a bluff, out
spoken, yet withal genial and kindly
dispositioncd gentleman, were required,
in connection with those of two or three
other doctors, to perform the experiment
of amputation upon a patient not a thous
and miles from here. The case was one
of peculiar nicety, the chances of success
hanging suspended on the very uncertain
hazard of a die. So our worthy M. D
thought it nothing but right that j
preparatory appeal should be made to the
Throne of Grace for assistance in the
undertaking. Accordingly, he invited
Dr. A. to. pray; Dr. A. declined. lie
invited Dr. 13. ; Dr. D. declined. He
invited Dr C. ; Dr. C. also declined.
"Well, gentlemen," said he, "if you tcont
pray, and seeing that 1 can't pray, let's to
work in my opinion, this 13 going to be
a d d infernal hard case, and the sooner
we finish it the better !"
Escaped Again! In accordance with
the advice of legal counsel, Mr. James
Shorthill, of Summcrhiil township, this
county, whoe arrest as a deserter some
weeks since by Deputy Provost Marshal
lleyer, at Wilmorc,and subsequent escape,
our readers no doubt remember, voluntari
ly appeared before the Board of Enroll
ment for this district, at Huntingdon, a
few days ago, to test the legality of his
conscription. His plea, we believe, was,
that, in August last, it was John Shorthill
who was drafted, and net tamesS Lot thill,
and that the notification of draft was made
out to John Shorthill, but was served on
him, James. On the ground that one
man cannot be legally held amenable for
the infraction of a law on tho part of
another, he, James Shorthill, asked to be
relieved from further personal inconveni
ence in the matter, and that tho penalties
attaching to the crime of desertion be
visited upon the man who was in reality
drafted, John Shorthill. The Board of
Enrollment failed to see it in that light.
They decided that James Shorthill was
iu reality the person drafted, his descrip
tive list abundantly proving that fact;
that his successful skedaddle from the
custody of Deputy Provost Mar. Ileyer
creates the impression that he must at
one time have considered himself a con
script ; and that a mere clerical error is
not sufficient to exempt from the perfor
mance of military duty. Accordingly,
James Shorthill was committed to the
Huntingdon jail for safe keeping until he
could be removed to camp. The same
niht, however, by some means or other,
he escaped therefrom, and has not since
been heard of.
Drunk ? or What Ails Him ? The
blatherings of the Johnstown Democrat
last week with regard to The Alleghanian
are about as intelligible to us as High
Dutch would be "to a Choctaw pappoose.
It has been suggested, however, that that
journal wishes us to understand from his
gibberish that he charges our Johnstown
correspondent with the authorship of a
couple of squibs at his expense lately
appearing in these columns. If so, then
we beg leave to say to him that his charge
without foundation. We wrote the
Equibs in question no correspondent had
aught to do with them in the slightest
particular. We do not make a habit of
embodying the sentiments of correspon
dents as our own. We think for ourself
-our correspondents express their views
of matters and things, as correspondents,
untrammeled by dictation on our part. i
W7hatever appears in Hie Alleghanian,
therefore, as editorial, is editorial our
own individual sentiments. Our shoul
der? are broad, and we particularly desire
to bear the full ouus of responsibility
attaching thereto.
Our neighbor should not allow himself
to become so suspicious. Because he sees
fit to secure outside assistance toward the
getting up of "original" for his columns
is no reason we should do likewise.
Neither should he be afraid of our corre
spondents they :re all good fellows, and
won't hurt him if he behaves himself like
a gentleman "What'll you take, and
take it sweetened ?"
A Shame. Although something like
fifty new men were recruited in Washing
ton township, this county, for Col. Dick
White's 55th Pa. regiment, Cambria
county fails To receive credit for a single
one of them. This is owing to the fact
that no bounty is paid by the county,
nor by Washington tp. These recruits
went to Dauphin and Chester counties to
be credited, where they received a snug
recompense for o doing. Perhaps the
policy of thu9 allowing ourselves to be
diddled out of our fighting material thro'
sheer lack of energy will pay perhaps
not. We shall see !
Married : On the 21st of February, by
Itev. J. S. Lemmon, Lieut. J. J. Will,
formerly of the 133d Beg. P. V., late of
Pittsburgh, to Miss Julia Seigii, of
Perkinsville, this county.
On the same day, by the same, Sam
uel J. Crotle, to Miss Susan R.
Forbes, both of Somerset county.-
On the 25th February, by the same,
Iter. E. II. Baird. of New Lexington
Charge, Pittsburg Conference, to Miss S.
J. Bracken, this county.
As we Expected. Ilollidaysburg be
ing a "more central point" (!!!) than
-Huntingdon, the Provost Marshal's office
of this djstrict has been removed from the
latter to the former place. We under
stand that a project is also on foot looking
toward the removal of tho seat of govern
ment of the State to some point inside
Blair county.
Just So. The Hollidaysbarg Stand
ardj .we observe, hoists the name of Gen.
Geo. B. M'Clellan for the next Presiden
cy. If nominated, and he runs only half
so well as a political chieftain as he stood
still as a military chieftain, nothing can
prevent the General from being trium
phantly elected.
Quere. Taking the estimate of a dis
cerning public, in dollars and cents, as its
true valuation, how many thousand col
umns of "local" of the Johnstown Dcmo
ocrat stripe would it take to pay for a six
dollar Dictionary ? A speedy answer is
requested.
Quotas . Filled. Wilmore borough,
we understand, has had her full quota of
men under all calls sworn into the service.
CarrclTtown borough 'has also filltd her
quota by volunteering. Both paid good
bounties'. - . -
Hung Himself. A young roan named
John Yeager, of .Chest township, Cambria
county, deliberately hung himself to death
in his father's barn about a week ago.
We have heard no cause assigned for the
rash act.

Correspondence of The Alleghanian.
Among the many changes and improve
ments which are daily occurring here, I
must make particular mention of the
enterprise displayed by one of our citizens
Mr. F. W. Hay. This jrentleman,
having purchased the old Collector's
building, on Canal street, has fitted it up
a3 a stove and tinware depot and work
shop, and for beauty of interior arrange
ment and convenience it will compare
favorably with any -establishment in tho
State. Mr. Hay is a go ahead business
man, and, as all who are acquainted with
him are aware, a perfect gentleman.
Co. M, 12th Pa. Cavalry, commanded
by Capt. Morgan M'Donald, and recruited
principally ic this place, will arrive here
on furlough during the present week.
They have re-enlisted for .three years
more. The Capt. wishes to secure a few
recruits, and from a long and intimate
personal acquaintance with him, I can
recommend him to any of the readers of
this notice who may wish to enlist in a
crack cavalry company.
Capt. David Hamilton, Co. K,18th Pa.
Cavalry, haa, by direction of the War
Department, opened a recruiting station
in thi3 place. He has power ' to enlist
recruits for any regiment in the service.
Ebensburg will be filled to overflowing
next week, as an immense number of
witnesses are being subpenaed on the
Moore-Marbourg case. A great deal of
interest is manifested as to the probable
result of the trial, and a large number of
people, independent of witnesses, will
doubtless be in attendance.
A report is current here that a member
of Capt. Ryckman's company was shot
dead in a street quarrel at Harrisburg
last week. It lacks confirmation.
The weather for several days past has
been of tho rainy order, and, as a natural
result, our streets and sidewalks are now
in a muddy condition. Mat Leon.

From Rev. J. Newton Brown, D. D., Editor of
the Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge.
Although not disposed to favor or recom
mend Patent Medicines in general, through
distrust of their ingredients and effects ;" I
yet knotr of no sufficient reasons why a man
may not testify to the benefits he believes
himself to have received from nnv simple
preparation, in the hope that he may thus
contribute to the benefit of others.
I do thi3 the more readily in regard to
Hoofland's German Bitters, prcparedby 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 indebied to my
friend Robert Shoemaker., for the removal of
this prejudice by proper tests, and for en
couragement to try them, nhen 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 decree
of bodily and nientnl vigor which I had'not
felt for six mouths before, and had almost
despaired of regaining. I therefore thank
God and my friend for directing nie'to use
them. J. NEWTON BROWN.

Dr. C. M. Jackson Dear Sir : While irr
Virginia, owing to the change of water, I was
taken with a severe dianhoea, which seemed
incurable, and which greatly weakened me.
When we reached Martinsbnrg, I feared that
I should have to come home; but noticing
some of your Bitters in the store of Mr. II. H.
Price, in that town, I purchased a sunply, and
on taking it Was speedily restored to health.
The diarrhoea was ouickly checked, and I
experienced no return of it. A number of
my comrades who suffered in the same
nianuer and from the same cause, with whom
I sh.ired th Bitters, join me in this certificate.
I expect to return to the seat of war with the
Legion, and I shall certainly take a supply of
the Bitters in my knapsack. I would n bo
without it for its weight in gold, particularly
on going into a limestone region.
Yours, truly, A. E. ALMEUS,
