Return of Messrs, Kirk and
.Jaoues, from Richmond.

The following is Washington special
to the Philadelphia Inquirer: AS the
james River boat arrived it became
known that among its passengers were
two men who left Richmond Monday
last. To have an interview with the dis
tinguished travellers was, of course, a
desire which Immediately possessed the
anxious. Hardly had they landed before
the rumor was telegraphed over the coun-
try that two United States commission
ers had just returned from Richmond,
after transacting most important official
business. But rumor in this case was in
error. The travellers neither transacted
business in Richmond of an official or
important character, so far as present re-
suits are concerned. The gentlemen
who have thus succeeded in visiting
Richmond are c j. James T. Jaques,
73rd Illinois regiment, and Edmund
Kirk, of New York, the well known
author.
Col. Jacques has been in the army al
most since the beginning of the war.
He is forty-five years Of age, is pleasing
in address, though somewhat reserved In
manners. The report that these gentle
men acted in any official capacity Tor our
government, or that they were in any re-
spect recognized, either here or In Rich
lmond, as agents, messengers, ENJOYS or
commissioners of the United States, is
untrue. They went upon mission per-
fectly and wholly distinct from any con-
nection with our authorities; and again,

ton, and habits he is not likely u De
tinged in his estimate by unworthy con-
siderations he has seen his men under
all circumstances, felt their natures IN
moments of need, marked their zeal In
the hour of danger, and read them thor
onghly on occasions which strip the dis
guises off the most artful. A record OF
conduct kept by such a man diligent and
conscientiously, and uncolored by the
touches of subordinate's hand, would
probably be found not only one OF the
best aids to justice, but one of the best
promoters of good conduct that an officer
could command.
"The right management of men is diff
ficult under any circumstances, but spe-
cially SO in such an artificial world as a
ship. Ther interference of the executive
must be constant, it must be vigorous,
and to be tolerable must be judicious.--
The superiority Of prevention to cure is
proverbial but, as it is only the close
observers who will detect the early stages
of disorder, so it is only the skillful
hand that can apply the efficient remedy,
and only thoughtful student of human
nature who can administer it so adroltly
as to make it almost imperceptible.-
Lord Collingwood complained in his day
that 'some endeavored to conceal by
great severity their own unsllllfulness
and want of attention, and that the men
were beaten into insubordination. '"
The desire to rule upon principles OF
commingled justice and kindness, is as
widely separate from unhealthy "good
fellowship" as the "loudest democracy
"of popularity-seeking could wish"
There is one other subject to which we
would invite the attention of those likely
to be called upon to fill the Office of exc
cutive, and thst is, the absolute necessity
of observing regular system in carrying
on the duties of the ship-be it large or
small. Cultivate system, for want of
it will certainly neutralize the most per-
feet organization. If systematic admin
istration does not come naturally through
the "bump of order, it is advisable to
prepare routine table for self-guidance.
An cratic and whimsical first lieutenant is
the horror of all good men-of-war's men.

about the time we should have been en-

day, we reached our destination, some two
miles west or southwest of the Weldon

is hard to tell. We are assigned to the

of this cannot be certain. Nor can I

JoHNsTowN, Dec. 4, 1864.
Correspondence of The Alleghanian.
A man named Patrick Mccarthy was
drowned in the Conemaugh river, opposite
the Rolling Mill, on Sunday hight last
His fate was not discovered until Wednes-
day, and unavailing search had been made
for him until that day, when his lifeless
body was observed floating in the Slack
water, few miles below town. Deceased
was employed in the Iron Works, but had
been on a spree for several days. He
leaves wife and family.
John w. Wehn, merchant, has been
appointed by Gov. Curtin auctioneer in
this place. Mr.. Wehn intends opening
a room in the Jordan Marbourg property,
and will do general auction business in
real estate, dry goods, household goods,
&C., every Monday, Friday and Saturday.
The sum of $50 was raised for the U.
S. Christian Commission, in the Presbyte-
rian church OIL Thanksgiving day. Rev.
Agnew, pastor, delivered very eloquent
and patriotic sermon, suitable for the oc-
casion, then and there. BY request of a
number of his congregation, it is published
in full IN the Tribune of last week
A vocal and instrumental concert camc
off here ON Thursday evening of last
week. 1t was a brilliant and decided
success, and reflects great credit upon the
musical talent of the gentlemen under
whose auspices it was given, namely, the

Mr. Enstaf.

ETCHINGS.-The Johnstown Democrat,
after brief suspension, has again made
its appearance, as large as life and twice
as rabid. 1t is still printed by Mr.. Jas.
F. Campbell, who, notwithstanding all
former disclaimers, is extremely anxious
of becoming martyr" in the cause of
so-called Democracy. The terms of the
paper have been increased 10 $500 per
annum if paid in advance, or $3.50 if not
paid till the expiration of the year....A
ladies' fair, for the benefit of the Catholic
church of Altoona, commences at that
place to-day. The "Scott House" Johns
town. has undergone a change of propri-
etors, Mr.. David Griffith retiring, and Mr..
G. w. Fuland succeeding. Mr.. David
Brown, father of Mr.. Robert Brown, the
efficient RR. agent at Cresson, died at his
residence, New Florence, on the 26th ult.
The conscripts from this county are
reporting the present week at Provost
Marshal headquarters, Hollidaysburg, for
examination. Huntingdon county is in
tested by seemingly organized band of
housebreakers. Burglary and robbery are
of almost daily occurrence....T The present
snap of pleasant weather has proved de-
eided blessing to not few Of our towns
people and farmers, in that through it
they have been enabled to complete the
raising of Their potatoes, job which was
necessarily deferred by reason of the cold
weather of six weeks ago, lasting till now.
Digging potatoes in December may sound
queer, hut the thing can be done, aud
that, too, on the top of the Alleghanies,
but one remove from the line of perpetual
snow and ice ....Among the many arrivals
in town, in attendance at Court, we notice
our friend aud fellow-townsman, Hon. A.

ernor Curtin. The cares Of his Office
seem to bear lightly on him, and he is
the same genial, genilemanly, good fellow
he always was. May good luck hit him!

A MATTER DEMANDING ATTENTION.
We understand the Penna. Railroad
Company have hearkened to the prayers
OF the citizens of Johnstown, and ordered
the Phila. Express east and west to stop
at that station hereaitcr-a thing it had
failed to do since the incoming OF the ex-
listing schedule. This suggests the remark
that 1t is to the interest of the citizens of
modification of the schedule so far as it
refers to Cresson station. In the first
place, our Branch train, leaving here at
4.lO p m, ought by all means to connect
with the Emigrant train west, passing
Cresson at 4.55. This would require a
start of only few minutes earlier from
this depot, and would obviate the disa-
greeable necessity of passengers waiting
three hours and a half for the next train
Then, the Phila. express east ought to
stop at Cresson. The only train east
stopping at that point in the evening is
the Pittsburg & Eric express, at 5.15.-
The Phila. express passes before our
Branch train starts, but does not stop.
Hence, passengers from Pittsburg, and
Johnstown, and the west, are doomed to
three hours and haif's weary waiting at
Cresson before they can be permitted to
resume their journey hither The sched-
ule tor the morning is an excellent one,
but that for the evening, as we have en-
oeavored to show, is exactly the reverse.
The inconvenience to cur citizens arisino
thereirom Is easy of remedy, and we have
no doubt the Pennsylvania Railroad Com.
pany would cheerfully apply that remedv
Il the matter were properly brought be-
fore them,
