McLAIN, EDWARD CHESLEY AND THOS. HENDERSON, of Indiana, and several other members of Co. B, 11th Reserves, came home on furlough, a few days since. They were wounded at the Fredericksburg fight. HOCKENBERRY, the murderer of "DEVIL" JOHN THOMPSON, was recently reprieved by the Governor. He returned home, and not finding matters to please him, he turned the family out of doors, and committed suicide by cutting his throat. So we are informed. MARRIED. On Wednesday, the 17th inst., by Rev. D. Blair, MR. JOHN AMOND to MISS MARTHA SIMPSON, both of Greenville, Indiana county, Pa. DIED. On November 22nd, 1862, ROBERT HOWEARTH, aged 13 years, 8 months and 5 days. 13 January 1863 [large article recapping the war for the year] On last Thursday, MR. THOMAS HOOD of the vicinity of West Lebanon, was thrown from a wagon, and in the fall fractured the cheek bone of his right cheek. MR.JAMES HAZLETT, son of JOHN C. HAZLETT, of Georgeville, this county, a member of Co. E, 11th Reserves, was brought to this place to-day (Monday) on his way home. He was wounded in the battle of South Mountain by a ball in the thigh, fracturing the bone. He is recovering slowly. We trust he will soon be able to move about again. Some scoundrels, who will never get their deserts outside the walls of the County Jail, on last Wednesday night, broke in a window of the residence of MR. JOSEPH HOFFMAN, of this place. (Mr. H. is absent in the army.) --A number of young persons were spending the evening with MRS. HOFFMAN, when the villains thrust a large pole through the window, and then decamped. The premises were instantly searched, but no one was found. We trust such consummate rascals will get their reward in due time. Another bold and atrocious assault was perpetrated in this place on last Wednesday evening. A young man, MR. JOSEPH McNEIL, was passing down North Clymer street, when, upon reaching the alley at Thompson and Son's Store, he was accosted by two persons with the question, "Is this you?" Mr. McN. answered "Yes" ; whereupon one of the interrogators struck at him with a knife, curring a gash of several inches in length in the right lapel of his coat. Mr. McN dealt the fellow a blow, knocking him down. At this the other "rough" made a stroke at Mr. McN's head, also with a knife, cutting through his hat a length of about 4 inches. Mr. McN now took to his heels and escaped.... MARRIED. On the 1st inst., by John Martin, Esq., MR. SETH McKEEN to MISS MARY F. PERKINS, both of Cambria county. --On the 27th of December, by Rev. J.S. Lemmon, MR. JAMES HANNAH to MISS BATHSHEBA (FALES), both of this county. --On the 8th inst., by Rev. Samuel Aughey, MR. NOAH H. HUNT, of Mt. Healthy, Ohio, to MISS MARTHA A.

Also on Sabbath a.m., the 21st inst., of Scarlet Fever, CLIFFORD A., only son of J.C. AND THETTA Q. PRENTISS, aged 6 years. On Monday the bodies of Mother and Son were consigned to one grave, in the midst of an unusually large and sympathetic assembly. [verse] Most of our readers will recognize in the subject of the above notice the sprightly maiden, THETTA QUAY, daughter of the REV. MR. QUAY, formerly pastor of the Presbyterian congregation at this place. Her demise is truly a sad bereavement to her husband and family. The community in which she resided will feel deeply her loss; and nowhere will the family of the deceased find a more heartfelt sympathy than here. Peace to her ashes. --On December 22d, ELIZABETH, aged 6 years, 1 month and 11 days; and on the 31st, HARRY, aged 3 years 6 months and 13 days, children of JAMES M. AND MARY BARR, of Greenville. --On December 28th, MARGARET, aged 4 years; and on the 29th, WILLIAM, aged about 9 years; children of THOMAS AND JULIAN LUCAS, of Armstrong township, this county. --On December 22d, of Diptheria, MAGGIE, daughter of THOMAS AND MARY GUTHRIE, of Saltsburg, aged 5 yeras. --On the 2d inst., ISABEL STEWART, wife of JOS.

CHARLES RIDDLE, of Erysipelas, in the 71st year of his age. 20 January 1863 DAVID STEWART, of Pine townhip, this county, who was drafted into the US Military service, last October, and who afterward enlisted in Capt Benford's Cavalry co., and received the Government bounty, was arrested and lodged in jail at this place, on last Friday, as a Deserter.... On the same day, WILLIAM JOHNSTON, of Centre township, was arrested, also for desertion. He is one of the drafted men from this county. DIED. On the 17th of December, MARTHA, daughter of DR. W.B. AND ELIZABETH E. STEWART, of Armagh, aged 4 years, 10months and 22 days. 27 January 1863 DIED. On the 16th inst., os Diptheria, NANCY JANE, daughter of SAMUEL AND LILLY STUCHAL, age 18 years and 20 days. [verse] 3 February 1863 CANDLE-MAS. This feast of the Church is celebrated on the 2nd day of February, in honor of the purification of the Virgin Mary; and derives its name from the great number of candles used upon that occasion. There is a superstition in connection with this day, which, although not generally credited, is nevertheless looked to with great interest by many. It is this: the wood-chucks, or ground-hogs, confine themselves, during winter, to their burrows, from which it is said they emerge on the 2nd day of February, to take a look at the weather. Should the sun shine brightly, and discover to his ground-hogship his own shadow, he immediately returns to his burrow, and remains shut up six weeks longer, in expectation of severe cold weather during that time; but if the day is murky, and he cannot see his shadow he continues upon terra firma, being satisfied that the ensuing weather will be pleasant. To-day (Monday) the sun shone bright all day, and, unless ground-hogs are not reliable weather prognosticators, we may look for extreme cold during the remainder of winter. DIED. In the borough of Taylorsville, on Saturday, the 17th of January, of measles, MARTIN LUTHER, son of GEORGE J. AND CATHARINE KELLER, aged 9 months. Sleep, dear child, and take thy rest; God called thee home when he saw best. 10 February 1863 A little daughter of MRS. AGNES MYERS, of this place, received a severe fall on Saturday evening, causing concussion of the brain. She is improving rapidly. MR. JAMES HAZLETT, whose return from the army we noticed a few weeks ago, died at the residence of his father at Greenville, on Friday last, from a wound received at the Battle of South Mountain. He is another victim of this accursed rebellion. [Co A, 61st P.V. long long list of deaths, discharges, missing in actions, deserters, and wounded now on duty. IF you need this list, let me know.] 24 February 1863 MARRIED. HENTZ-NICODEMUS. At Gettysburg, Pa., on Thur, 19th February, at St. James Lutheran Church, by Rev. A. Errick, assisted by Rev. G.F. Shaffer, REV. J.P. HENTZ, of Indiana, and MISS CECILIA A. NICODEMUS, of Gettysburg, Pa. DIED. STUTCHAL--Of Diptheria, on the 29th of January, ALEXANDER, son of SAMUEL AND LILLY STUTCHAL, aged 12 years, 9 months and 18 days. One fair flower now is faded, one lovely form has fled, One sweet voice is hushed--, One school mate now is dead. McCOMB --In Marchand, Indiana county, February 18th, 1863, of Inflammation of the lungs, ALMA THEDA, daughter of T.R. AND N.A.A. McCOMB, aged 2 months and 23 days. Dearest Alma, thou art gone From a world of sin and sorrow, To dwell above where Jesus is; In the presence of God forever. Though sorrow rests heavy on our hearts, When thou art taken away, But we know submission to the will of God, Expecting to meet thee in heaven. TRM 3 March 1863 AT HOME. CAPT. DAN. S. PORTER came home about ten days ago, on a short furlough. T.M. McCANDLESS is also home for a few days. Both these gentlemen look well. "Sogering" seems to agree with them. CHARLES CAMPBELL AND J.D. PATTON have also returned from the West, and, we believe, they propse locating here again, at least for the present. ARCHIBALD McCONNAEGHEY, a hack-driver on the road from Indiana to Brookville, was arrested at Ayers', in this county, on last Thursday, charged with stealing a package of money from MR. HUGH B. McCRACKEN, a passenger in the stage. Information was made before ESQ. COULTER, of this place, on Wednesday, a warrant issued and prisoner arrested. A hearing was had on Thursday evening, and renewed on Saturday, when the prisoner was fully committed to answer. The package contained $75, and, it is alleged, was stolen from the carpet sack of Mr. McC., while he was at dinner, in Marion. The money, was recovered, and identified by MR. J.R. REESE, the owner. MARRIED. LOGAN-SMITH. On the 12th of February, by Rev. J.S. Lemmon, MR. DAVID W. LOGAN and MISS SARAH EMILY SMITH, both of Jefferson county, Pa. KNEE-RALSTON. On the 24th inst., by Rev. McElwain, MR. C.W. KNEE, of Centre township, and MISS MAGGIE A. RALSTON, of Cherryhill township. McHENRY-BRAICKLEY. October 6th, '62, by the same, MR.GEORGE McHENRY AND MISS MAGGIE BRICKLEY, both of Marion, this county. DIED. WESTLAKE. On Thursday, the 19th of February, in this borough, WILLIE B., infant son of J. WILLIS AND ADA A. WESTLAKE, aged 11 weeks and 5 days. 10 March 1863 On Monday of last week, a little son of MR. ADAM ROW, of this place, accidently cut himself in the leg, with a knife. The cut, although a severe one, is healing rapidly. Recently some clothes were stolen from the garden of MR. GEORGE BECK, of this place. They have since been partially recovered; and a woman--one MOL. HOOVER-- arrested and confined in jail on charges of having committed the theft. By a private letter, we learn that CAPT. CUMMINS received a present of a beautiful sword, worth $100, from his company, a few days ago, in token of their high appreciation of his cool and daring conduct in the late battle at Murfreesboro. LT. NUGENT was also the recipient of a fine sword. ANOTHER OLD CITIZEN GONE. On last Friday evening, MR. JAMES COULTER, an old citizen of this county, died suddenly at his residence in White township. He had been complaining of indisposition for some days. On the evening of his death, he was moving about the premises feeling rather better than for several days previous, and after feeding some stick he went to the house and lay down upon the floor, where in a few minutes, he expired without the least struggle; the only motion observed by those present, was the falling of his hand from his breast on the floor. He was a soldier in the War of 1812; and has been a citizen of this county for about fifty years, and for many years a member of the Presbyterian church. His age was about 72 years. MARRIED. JOHNSTON-BUTERBAUGH. On the 3rd inst., at the residence of the bride's Father, by the Rev. F. Hollen, MR. W. JOHNSTON and MISS ELIZA C. BUTERBAUGH, both of Montgomery township, Indiana county.

YOUNG, ESQ., of this place lost a valuable cow on last Thursday night. The animal was chained to a stall in the stable, and by some meaned choked herself to death. The triplets, children of JAMES MOORHEAD, ESQ., of which we made mention some two or three weeks ago, are all dead. One of the sons died on the 6th inst., another on the 8th and the daughter on last Thurday, 12th. MARRIED. HAMILTON-ALTIMUS. On the 12th of March, 1863, at the residence of the bride's father, by REv. Samuel Aughey, MR. HUGH A. HAMILTON, of White township, and MISS MARTHA JANE ALTIMUS, daughter of MR.

The family of MR. THOMAS is surely afflicted--four other of the members are sick, all with Diptheria. We tender them our warmest sympathy. HAYS. In Washington township, this county, 13th of February, of Consumption, REUBEN HAYES, aged 25 years and 1 month. THOMPSON. In this borough, on the 7th inst., REBECCA BLANCHE, daughter of A.P.

JOHN COCHRAN, of Saltsburg, this county, a member of Co. D., 135th PV, Capt. Wilson's, died a short time ago. --Peace to his ashes. DR. D.M. MARSHALL, of Phillip's Mills, in this county, who has been for some time Assistant Surgeon of the 103rd Regt PV has been appointed Surgeon of the 167th PM. AT HOME. LT. A.W. STEWART, of Co. B, 11th PRC, "Archy" looks remarkably well, considering the "hard through" he has had of it, whilst playing the "bould soger boy," on the Peninsula, and along the Rapahannock. We welcome him home. MR. JACOB EARHART, of Saltsburgh, this county, met with an accident on the 6th inst., which came near resulting fatally. He was engaged in felling some locust trees, and had cut one tree, which lodged against another, and whilst cutting the second one, the first tree fell upon him, breaking one of his legs and seriously injuring his breast. He was carried to his residence, and at last accounts there were prospects of his recovery. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. On Saturday monring last, about seven o'clock, the large frame Brewery and dwelling house of MR. ANDREW STADTMILLER, in the eastern part of Indiana, was discovered to be on fire. The alarm was given and our citizens assembled at the scene of the conflagration. The fire burned with great rapidity; and, although every effort to save anything that could be saved was made, the building with most of its contents was consumed. It is not known how the fire originiated--it being first discovered up stairs. There was a very high wind at the time, owing to which cause, other buildings were greatly endangered. They were saved, however, by judicious management. The cellar and vaults of the Brewery contained a large quantity of lager beer, much of which was destroyed. MR. STADTMILLER's loss will reach probably $3000 or $3500. This is another warning to our citizens to do something to secure our town against fire. On several occasion, heretofore, there has been considerable talk about procuring a fire engine, and, we regret to say, that the whole matter endedin talk. We doubt whether there is another town, anywhere, of the size of Indiana, that is so poorly provided with the means of putting out fire. WILD CATS. About ten days ago, MR. JACOB MURPHY, of Brushvalley township, this county, killed a wild-cat, along the waters of Yellowcreek, which measured three feet in length. Mr. M. first discovered the animal on the ground, and shot it in one of its hind legs, when it turned upon him and showed fright. --He grasped a club, and dealt several severe blows, when it treed; whereupon Mr. M. reloaded his gun and shot the brute. Two other wild-cats have been shot, within a few days past, near Armagh, this county. MARRIED. LINTNER-SCOTT. At Armagh, on the 24th ult., by Rev. Robert Stevenson, MR. WILLIAM LINTNER, JR., of Blairsville, and MISS AGGIE E. SCOTT, of Armagh. DIED. KUHNS. On the 10th inst., in Conemaugh township, a son of KUHNS, aged about 12 years. METZ.

CLAIR, of this borough, aged 21 months. CLOWES. On the 9th inst., in Washington township, MRS. ELIZABETH JANE, wife of MR. ISAAC CLOWES, aged 26 years, 8 months and 24 days. LYDICK. On the 17th March, JAMES LYDICK, of Green township, aged (88) yeras, 3 months and 1 day IRWIN. On November 20th, 1862 [sic], near Plumville, South Mahoning township, Indiana county, of Diptheria, SAMUEL MARSHALL IRWIN, aged 11 years, 8 days, son of JOHN AND CATHARINE R. IRWIN. 31 March 1863 FATAL ACCIDENT. A young man, named JAMES REPINE, aged about 25 years, formerly of this place, met with an accident on Wednesday night which caused his death. He had been in Blairsville on Wednesday, and was somewhat intoxicated. In this condition, he started out of town, going by way of the "Alum Bank." By some accident he fell over the bank, a distance of about forty feet, and lodged in a bush, or fallen tree top, with his feet entangled so as to hold him fast, while his head hung downward. In this predicament, he was found sometime on Thursday, still alive. He was removed, but died from his injuries before the close of the day. There were no bones broken, and it is probable that his death resulted entirely from the unnatural position in which he was held during some twelve or fifteen hours. BITTEN BY A DOG. A little child of MR. A. GOEBEL, of this place, was severely bitten by a dog, one day last week. The dog belonged to MR. BALSER SNYDER, who had stopped in to see MR. GOEBEL--and while there, the little fellow, child-like, attempted to drive the dog away, and struck him with a stick. This infuriated the brute, and he instantly seized the child by the face, threw him down and shook him, lacerating his face in some half dozen places. The child is recovering rapidly from his wounds. Such a savage brute should not be allowed to run at large. DIED. GALLAGHER. On the (13th) inst., at Darlington, Wisconsin, ELIZABETH, wife of MAJ. PHILLIP GALLAGHER, aged about 55 years. About eighteen days ago, the deceased, in company with her husband and family, left this place for the West, in the enjoyment of good health. MARSHALL. On the 21st inst., at his residence in Canoe township, this county, S.S. MARSHALL, aged about 55 years. LINES ON THE DEATH OF DONALDSON THOMAS, of White township, Indiana county, Pa. [long verse tagged -S.A.T.] LINES ON THE DEATH OF HANNAH JANE THOMAS, of White towship, Indiana county, Pa. [long verse tagged M.M.T.] 7 April 1863 FULL OR PARTIAL sets of artificial teeth, on gold or vulcanized base, put up at short notice in the very best style, and cheap for cash, by DR. T.A. LEWIS, two doors east of Kinter's Hotel, Indiana, Pa. ALMOST A FIRE. On Sabbath afternoon our citizens were aroused by the alarm of fire, the occasion of which was the burning of a bed in the residence of MR. GEORGE BOADENHAMMER. It is thought the fire originated from a spark from the fire down-stairs, and which it is preseumed found egress from the flue through a pipe-hole up-stairs, and thus fell on the bed. The bed was destroyed, but no further injury was done. A FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT. A few days ago a little girl named MARY REED, of West Lebanon, this county, entered the Steam Grist Mill at that place, and by some means her clothes were caught by an upright shaft attached to the bolting apparatus, forcing the body between the shaft and a post about six inches from it, which completely severed the head from the body; the blothing stripped entirely off, and the body bruised and mangled in a most frightful manner. This is another warning to parents to be watchful of their children, and keep them away fom places of so much danger. "In the midst of life we are in death." MARRIED. RAY-STEPHENS. On Thursday, the 19th of March, by Rev. Byron Porter, MR. WILLIAM J. RAY, of Rayne township, and MISS AMANDA STEPHENS, of White township. KING-DIAS.

Near Blairsville, at 11 o'clock p.m. February 20th, 1863, of scarlet fever, MARY, eldest child of JOSEPH F. AND MARY McL. BARNES, aged 4 years and 20 days. [verse tagged -B.] 14 April 1863 A LARGE OWL. On last Saturday, W. SCOTT SHIELDS, son of A. SHIELDS, ESQ., of Rayne township, aged 15 years, shot an Owl which measured four feet two inches between the tips o the wings. PROMOTED. We are pleased to learn that our popular friends, CAPT. DAN. S. PORTER, has been appointed Lt. Col. of the gallant 11th Pa. Reserves. --"Dan" has proved himself to be a gallant and noble commander on quite a number of hard fought fields. A higher position awaits him. JOHN STANARD, ESQ., was home on a visit last week. He has been in the U.S. military service for some eighteen months. --He was captured by the Rebels at Harper's Ferry, last fall, and was paroled. During the past winter, he was at Camp Douglas, Chicago, in the Commissary Department. He was recently exchanged, and has gone to rejoin his regiment in Eastern Virginia. JOHN looks remarkably well. He has all along served as a private soldier. We should be pleased to hear of his being promoted. Success to him. REMOVAL. MR. JOHN C. STADTMILLER Has removed his Lager Beer Saloon to the room, on North Clymer Street, formerly occupied by the Messenger printing office. MR. S. has put his room in good trim, and the lovers of Lager, who frequent John's Saloon, will, no doubt, be pleased with the change of places. "Old Andy's" Lager is always at a premium among the lovers of the "Barley Bree." DIED. MOORHEAD. In Washington City, D.C., onthe 29th March, of hemorrhage of the lungs, ALFRED W. MOORHEAD, in the 28th year of his age. The deceased was a son of JAMES W. MOORHEAD, of this place. On the death of his father, he was appointed to a clerkship in the Washington Post Office, where he continued to labor until interrupted by sickness. His last sickness lasted about six weeks. His mother was sent for, but did not reach the city until after the departure of the funeral cortege. He leaves behind many warm friends, and but few, if any, enemies. FORNWALT. On the 13th of March last, in Brushvalley township, this county, MRS. MARGARET FORWALT, aged 44 years and 11 months. WORK. On April 3, 1863, of Inflammation of the lungs, MARY JANE, daughter of WILLIAM M. AND ANN E. WORK, aged 3 years, 5 months and 8 days. [verse] McKELVEY.

AND CATHERINE McKELVEY, aged 3 years. 21 April 1863 A BEQUEST. The Will of MR. ADAM ALTIMUS, late of Brushvalley township, deceased, bequeaths to the African Mission of the Evangelical Lutheran Church, the sum of $1000 out of his estate. The Will was made 17th February 1863. ANOTHER OLD CITIZEN GONE. DR. ROBERT MITCHELL, for 52 years a citizen of this place, died at his residence on last Tuesday morning, at the advanced age of 76 yeras. He was an active and successful practicioner from the time of his location here until a few years since, when he withdrew from professional service. He early imbibed the principles of universal liberty, and was earnest in the advocacy of his political sentiments. He was a good man, an excellent citizen, and an indulgent and kind parent. He lived to a good old age--his hair whitened by the frosts of many years --and now he's gone "to that undiscovered land from whose bourne no traveler returns." Requiescent in pace.
