Home Again! Co. A, 11th Penna. Reserves, the glorious remnant of a gal lant organization, arrived hero according to expectation on Wednesday evening last. Thev were met at the depot by a delega tion consisting of at least three-fourths of a!l the people of town, and, preceded by a tmd of martial music, were escorted to the Town Hall where a magnificent ban quet bad been spread for them by the ladies. After full and entire justice had been done this feature, the "boys" were formally welcomed home in a neat speech by 31r. Samuel Singleton, wherein he referred in words of burning eloquence to the eminent services performed in the field by the division of which they eom- 1 posed part and parcc!, eulogized those nho bad lived to return, and dropped a tear to the memory of the dead. This -a3 hat.pily responded to on the part of the company by Major James C. Burke snd Adjt. Thomas D. Litzingcr. Y here upon, a late hour having arrived, after congratulations and a general interchange of sentiment, the concourse dispersed aonie filled with joy unspeakable that their cear ones had come back, others sad and sorrowful that their dear ones would come back never more, but all thankful that even this moiety of Co. A had been spared to return, to center in themselves the un dying love and gratitude of a patriotic reople. "When it is remembered that these men were participants in every cam paign of the Army of the Potomac since Bull Kan the first, in all M'Clellatfs campaigns, in Tope's campaign, in BurnsidVs campaigns, in Hooker's cam- raign. in Meade's campaigns, and m Grant's present campaign up to June 1st, when this is remembered, it will not be wondered at that only fifteen out of over one iandreJ who originally went forth irith Co. A, returned with the organiza tion! This naked fact speaks in praise ot their heroism and unparalleled devo tion louder and more effectively than any thing we could hope to say or write. It is their glorious record we will not fctul- titv ourself bv attempting to enhance its brightness by one word of laudation, for words are tame and insignificant when called upon to describe or do justice to ttccus such as theirs. The returning veterans axe all in excel lent health and spirits. They look not as if soldiering had disagreed with them, but rather as though it had done them much poi, physically and otherwise. We may 4d that they unite, one and all, in the Mpression of the conviction that the re bellion mast be put down, in the hope that it be put down speedily, and in the belief that Grant, as Lieutenant General r tif our armies, is the man above all others i put it down. welcome home these survivors of a t".rce years' carnival of death with shouts M 10V and TPinifMno TIipv lmvr brnvrlv . j o J ' J fright for find nobly won the laurel wreath w victory, which we place on their brw, 1:-Jr ....

Tl seems that,.with regard to oar quota, we of Ebensburg have been crowing before we were altogethcf out of the woods. We were flattering ourselves all along with the belief that we had had enough men sworn into the service lo our credit to exempt us from draft until auother call, and felt highly elated there at; but it turns out this is not the case. Some error must have crept into the fig ures of the Board of Enrollment, for we are now assured that their former appor tionment was incorrect, and that we have ji& or two additional men to furnish possibly one, probably two. This is a plunge-bath to our joyful hopes and antic ipations of immunity from the distasteful freaks of the "wheel of fate it precipi tates us, who are "liable," from the sev enth heaven of unconcern as to when the draft takes place, down to that level where a highly-developed feeling of anxiety is the prevailing characteristic. One man who will he be? Two men who will they be ? Doubtful things arc mighty uncertain, and the' lightnings of conscrip tion strike in cut-of-the way places what is to prevent you, reader-at home, from becoming the man, or you and ourself from being constituted the men! Alas, that the Board diiu't leave the figures to stand as they stood before, that we might not only be able to boast of what we had done for the country in the way of prompt ly sending forth all the men required of us, but also be allowed to rest easy o' nights until the next call ! It is too bad. We can only console ourself with the reflec tion that the drawing for the deficiency will not occur for a couple of weeks, again which time the one or two men may be secured, sworn in, and placed to our cred it, to the squaring of the books to date between the government and the boro. Etchings. We were favored with a most glorious three-hours' rain on Sunday a rain which was badly needed a rain we could not well have done without. For over a week preceding, not a drop of moisture had fallen. The consequence was, vegetation was parched, the earth becamo dry and unwholesome, dust con gregated in the streets until its depth was almost unfathomable, and everything sub lunary seemed to be going wrong. We heard several men say that if the drouth had continued a week longer, the crops must unquestionaly have proved a total failure this fall. They would have been blasted, blistered, blotted out, burned up by the fervent rays of the sun. As this would have been a very bad old state of affairs, with gold at IDC, we thank the Weather Clerk that he has thus happily dispelled both the drouth and contingent fears of "short commons'' in prospective. ...The press, type and fixtures of the old EbeniLurrj Mountaineer printicg establish ment, which have been lying here unused for two or three years past, were boxed up last week and shipped to Philadelphia, to be sold as old metal. ..'.Persons desirous of securing a bargain in the real estate line are referred to the advertisement in another columu of a "Farm for Sale" by 3Ir. James X. Evans. ...The drafted men of this county will report for examination at Ebensburg, commencing on Monday next. So we are informed by Commis sioner Ilarr. Lieut.-Col. Koct. A. M'Coy. This gallant officer, of the 11th Pa. Reserves, wLo was unablo through press of regi mental busiues3 to return home with Co. A on Wednesday night, arrived here Fri day. He was met by a host of friends, who bestowed on him every manifestation of honor and applause. The record of Licut.-Col. M'C is one of which any man might be proud. Starting out as Second Lieut, of Co. A, he was subsequently pro moted to be Adjutant of the regiment, then to be Major, and then to bo Lieut. Col. and A. A. G. to Gen. Crawford, commanding the division. These several promotions, we may add, were not due to ""ood luck" or the efforts of influential friends, but to the high appreciation in which his military abilities were held by his comrades in arms. Ho fought va liantly and well in all the battles partici pated in by his regiment, and was once wounded and onco takec prisoner. Re turning home again, after a three years' absence where "dogged war bristles his ansrry crest," and with escutcheon bright and untarnished, may he reap the full measure of reward of his gallantry and devotion to country !

Johnstown, June 19, 1SG4. Correspondence of The Alleghanian. Adjt. W. II. Rose, accompanied by private George Duncan, of the 54th Pa. Vols., arrived hero last week, the former with a severe wound in the hip, received in the late skirmish at Piedmont. Capt. W. B. Bonaker, reported mortally woun ded at New Market, also made hit appear ance here this morning. A bullet passed through his body, in the vicinity of the heart and close to the spinal column, but escaping the vital parts. He is already almost as good as new again. These offi cers bring the gratifying intelligence that Capt. Graham (reported killed) is also living, but a prisoner in the hands of the rebels The loss of the 54th in the engagement is reported to bo two killed and twenty-nine wounded. Lieut.-Col. Linton, of the 54th, leaves for his regiment to-morrow. His wound is pretty well healed up, but the ball still remains in his thigh. John M'Manamy, of the 54th, wounded in the arm at New Market, died in hospi tal at Cumberland last week. His body was brought tcTthis place for interment. A few weeks aco, I noticed in this cor respondence the court-martial of "William M'Lane, of the 54th P. V., for desertion, and stated that he had been found guilty and sent to the Tortugas. My informa tion was derived from what I considered a reliable source ; but I now learn from a member of his regiment that the court martial acquitted him of the charge pre ferred, and returned him to the regiment. I am most happy to make this public correction of the mistake. May Leon. f'ScYUGLE." By reference to an item on the outside of to-day 'a paper, it will be seen that a new word, of the "skedaddle" ilk, has been manufactured to order in the army to wit, "scyugle." The chief charm about this new coinage is that it may bo used fur any word and in want of any word in the language. As such, it must needs prove wonderfully convenient. We -bespeak for it popularity with the masses. Our first use of the word will be made by advising our readers to "scyugle" to James M. Thompson's cheap store, Eb ensburg, and purchase some of those mag nificent summer goods he has just received and 13 now opening. Dr. Tobias' Venetian Liniment.

Although 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 may thus contribute to the benefit of others. I do this the more readily in" regard to Hooflanda German Bitters, prepared by Dr C. M. Jackson, of this city, because I was prejudiced against them for many year under the impression that they were chiefly an acloholic miiture. I am iudebied to my friend Robert Shoemaker., for the removal of bis prejudice by proper tests, and for en couragement to try them, rvhen suffering from great adZ Jong 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 mental vigor which I Ladnot felt for six months before, and had almost despaired of regaining. I therefore thank God and my triend' for directing me to use them- J- NEWTON BROWY. Plilad'a., Jcke 23, 1SG1, ATTENTION SOLDIEnS!
