ETcHINas. many nights since,
the Treasurer's safe of Huntingdon coun-
,y was blown open by burglars, in quest
of plunder. Owing to the fact that the
Treasurer fortunately makes it rule to
leave no large amount of money In the
safe over night, the light-fngered gentry
oply succeeded in realizing some fifteen
or twenty dollars by the operation. The
labor hardly paid for the pains. Lieut.
Tom R. Davis, of the 10Th U. S. l., we
are happy to see, is now with us on brief
leave of absence. He has served three
years in the regular army, part of the time
as Orderly Sergeant in Co. G, 10Th regt.,
part of the time as I'd Lieutenant, and
latterly as 1st Lieutenant. At present he
is attached to Gen. Rousscau's staff as
ordinance officer He is brave and eff
cient soldier, and good fellow, and we
wish him success. By the way, Lieut.. D.
informs US that all the surviving members
Of Co. C, 10Th regiment, (recruited almost
wholly in Cambria county, are discharged
the service by reason of expiration of
term of enlistment, with single excep-
ton, who has re-enlisted for another three
years term. .Thanxsgi giving was pretty
generally observed here. The principal
places of business were allowed to remain
closed Throughout. the day, and public
services we're had in the several churches.
The vote of Co. A, 205th P. V.-coa-
posed principally of Cam bria county boys
for President was as follows: For Lin

iority, 81. 1t is asserted that indications
Of an oil deposit have been discovered in
the neighborhood of Tyrone, Blail county.
The Huntingdon Globe says that On

is the name of an opposition paper pub
lished there, and this is what the NeU
Era says, under date of Nov. 16, concer-
ming the result Of the late election: "The
election, some think, has declared in favor
of Lincoln, but ue have an idea that it
will hurry him somewhat yet" To haze
been written eight days after the election,
this prediction certainly takes the rag off
the bush for astuteness, comprehensive

ccmber term of the Cambria county Courts
commences next Monday, 9th Instant.
After alternate snow and rain for about
SIX weeks, ou Monday the weather settled
down into something more nearly ap-
preaching Indian Summer than anything
We have experienced the present autumn.
We hope it may continue.
HAssoNIA-In the darker ages, Mi
cEael Hasson, editor Of the Ebensburg
Dem. & Sent, represented Cambria coun-
ty for one term in the State Legislature.
There is a vague tradition that he "ma2e
his mark" there, but this of course is
apocryphal and unworthy of full credence.
Ii he did so make his mark, we will wager
