MILITARY MArrER.-tapt. Jas. Muir.

MILITARY MATTER.-Capt. JAS. Mur-
ray, Of this place, recently First Lieuten-
ant OF the celebrated "Silver Grays," is
now engaged in recruiting company in
this county for the war. He has thus far
secured about fifty men, portion of whom
have been sworn in and sent to camp
He expects to fill out the company within
two weeks, when it will be attached to the
10th Penna. regiment, Col. Patterson,
now stationed at Camp Curtin. Capt.
Murray is an out-and-out military man.
He served with credit as Captain of the
"Cambria Guards during the Mexican
war, and more recently as First Lieuten-
ant of the "Silver Grays." He has the
reputation of being one of the best drill
masters in the State. Any one possessed
with the desire to don Uncle Sans livery
and "go for a soldier" could not do better
than enlist under Capt. Murray.
SERIOUS ACcIDENT.-We regret to
learn that c. d. Murray, Esq, editor of
the Democrat 6 Sentinel, sustained Sc
rious injury on Saturday evening of last
week, in consequence of inadvertently step
ping off the pavement into an open cellar
way, in the dark. In his fall, he struck
his head on stone step, bruising it dan
gerously, and rendering him entirely
senseless for several hours. Doubts were
even entertained for time as to his re-
covery, but we understand he is now men
ding perceptibly. We commiserate him
in his misfortune, and wish him speedy
convalescence.
W. NJ. GoRMLY-We direct the atten-
ton Of our readers to the card in another
column of w. NJ. Gormly, dealer in Pro-
visions, Iron, Nails, Glass, Oils, &c, 271
Liberty street, Pittsburg. Mr.. G. has
purchased the interest of his late partners,
and now carries on the extensive business
Of the establishment under his own name.
He is well known to the mercantile fra
ternity of this county, and highly esteem
ed as gentleman of excellent business
principles and qualifications. Those deal
ing in anything in his line should send
him an order.
THE CONTINENTAL HoTEL.-During
recent trip to Pittsburg, we had the pleas
ure of sojourning for season with that
prince of bonifaces and good fellow gen.
orally, DR.. Clark, of the Continental. We
found him "at home," and doing splen-
did business in his peculiar line. The
hotel has already. attained an enviable
reputation, and bids fair to become, like
its namesake in the Quaker City, an din
stitution." When you visit Pittsburg,
reader, try and make it convenient to stop
at the Continental. The latch-string al
ways hangs out for Cambrians.
CAMBRIA COUNTY AND THE WAR

Tribune for saying that Cambria county
has three Colonels, one Lieut.. Colonel,
two Majors, two Adjutants, thirteen Cap
tains, three Surgeons, two Chaplains, one

ters, and from 1900 to 1,40O lesser Off
GERS and privates in the Federal army.
Bully for Little Cambria

the 18th regular infantry-with M'Clel
lan's army-was killed in a skirmish with |
the Rebels a short time since. He was
