TV' " ££ : : SAZ2SIE. /LOCAL AFFAIRS. response to the reception of an fr° m tiie la(lieS °f Kishac °- quina§Nil|dey, Major Palls transmitted the following reply : Camp of Ist Pa. Cavalry, in the field, > Fairfax county, V'a., Sept. 18,1582. } To Mia. 11 'in. Mann ami other La-hex of KixhncobuiUa* Valley, Mifflin county, Pa. .- Ladies : ?Having been requested by my Battalion to acknowledge the receipt of a costly and very beautiful flag, this day re- ceived by the Ist Battalion of the Ist Reg- iment of Penna. Reserve Cavalry, as a present from a number of ladies, residents of Kishaooquillas Valley, Mifflin county, Pa., as a token of their respect and appre- ciation for the heroic and gallant manner in which the Ist Battallion conducted itself on that memorable occasion, theUth ol Au- gust, 1862, at the sanguinary, terrific and terrible battle of Cedar Mountain ; and while 1 tender you, kind ladies, the sincere and heartfelt thanks of the Battalion for your splendid and most magnificent pres- ent, F assure you in behalf of the officers and men of the Battaliou, (it affords me the greatest gratification to be able to do so) that their object, aim and desire will ever bo to protect, preserve inviolate, and respect that flag, not only for the sake of our national emblem, and flattering compli- ment displayed on its face, but for the sake of its fair donors, (Heaven bless them.) The bare knowledge of our being remem- bered by our fair and loved ones at home, will ol itself be an incentive for us to press 011 in the performance of our duty, in ham- stringing and annihilating this unholy and hell born rebellion. And when it shall be spoken of as a thing that was, and our glo- rious old banner again floats in triumph wherever it did, then, and not till then, will \vc sheath our sabres and return to our peaceful homes, pleasant valleys, and happy firesi !cs, bringing with us (with the help of God) our flag, untarnished and undimtned, as an evidence of our right to the approving prayers and smiles of the. good and generous throughout our land, (and especially the ladies of Kishacoquil- las \ alley.) Again, ladies, permit me, in behalf of the officers and men of my Bat- tallion. to thank you kindly lor your lovely flag. It shall never want protection while a man of the Ist Battalion exists to swing a sabre, or a standard bearer, while there is a man left of the gallant Captain J. P. Taylor's company (every man ol' which I am prond of. and their friends have good reason to be) to take the place of the brave ami heroic sergeant Bonnet. In conclusion you willplease pardon me for saying a word in reference to the other two Battalions of our Regiment, for whom I. entertain the highest esteem and regard, and it was simply owing to circumstances that they did not take so conspicuous a part as did the Ist at Cedar Mountain, 1 they being at the time detached in other parts id the field, where they rendered important service and where they would have been but too glad to have given a good aceou.: t ;<t themselves, had an opportunity been af- forded thorn.) And if it be so, and from observation 1 have no duubt it is, that the entire Reserve Corps is composed of like material, then may the old Keystone State well be truly proud of her noble sons in the army; and as I am an outsider, a na- tive of New York, a resident of California, where my wife and little loved ones now are, (011, how I long to see them) and hav- ing no political, congressional, State, or oth- er axe to grind, on this side of the Pacific at least, 1 may justly, I hope, be considered unbiased, and I assure you a finer body of mtn than Pennsylvania has in the field, especially the Ist Regt. Reserve cavalry, 1 never saw, and 1 have seen something of soldiering and war, this being the third that 1 have participated in. A very large majority of them seem to think that not nly the reputation oi their regiment but of ,he;r State to a great extent, Mependcd up.m their individual good conduct, and act accordingly ; and it requires not the eye of a physiognomist to see iu nearly every soldier's face of our regiment, that high- toned, moral character that goes to make up the pure patriot arid true soldier, ever willing to sacrifice home, fricuds, affluence, 3'ea everything held sacred and dear, and to endure hardships, privations, want and sufferings of every character an I kind im- aginJjle?(all of which are synonymous with war, civil war, grim visaged war, such as we now find iu our land) the glorious pride, pomp aud circumstance' of which is (with us at least to a great extent played out) all for the sake of his country, his government and his flag : but these once rescued and replaced upon a basis as firm as the rock of ages, then let me bespeak for the boys, 011 their return (at least for those who are permitted to do so) to their loved valley Kishacoquillas, a kind and cordial reception?such a one as only the noble and the b ave are entitled to, and . uch a one as the virtuous and the pure alone know how to give. Please pardon Ihe extreme length of this article, aud believe me, respected ladles, Y'our humble and most ob't serv't, 11. J. FALLS, Maj. Ist Regt. Pa. Res. Cav., Com. Ist Battallion.

Yesterday after- noon about 4 0 clock, as Brower, son of the Pour House Steward, and another man were driving a one horse wagon down Market .street, a hog got under the horse near Graver's Hotel, causing him to ruu away. The animal was a powerful one, and young Brower held ou to the lines for some time, when he unfortunately jumped out and his leg becoming entangled in the lines he was dragged at full speed across the square, his head striking the stones with great force. His skull is badly bro- ken, and he sustained other injuries which render his recovery extremely doubtful. He was removed to his father's residence at the Poor House. Mr. Brower lately lost a daughter, is himself sick at this time, and has now added another severe affliction. Relics from a Rebel Camp.

Lewistuwn, Mifflin co., Sept. 24, IBG2. Tell the Truth and Shame the Devil! I AM told that Samuel B. Haines has said to a number of Mifflin county farmers, that he made the same kind of horse power long since, which I am now making, (Helton's Patent) and that he found it was out good and abandoned it. and if any one doubts it he can show them tjie wheels. The object of (Jiis communication is to give a history of those wheels as related to me by those who claim to know the truth, as fellows: Lewis Wialer some years since brought to, this county a Pelton Horse Power. It was left in a place where 9ome one drove against it with a wagon and broke it. lie took it to Samuel B. Haines to get it repaired; Mr. Haines did not (perhaps could not) repair it, but set it in the cellar of his shop, where it remains, aud is what be shows as boing of his own make. This summer Lewis Wisler sold it to W. P. Graham, giving him an order for it, but Mr. llaines refused to deliver it. The inference is easily drawn. I have no objection to his making any kind of machines he bus a right to make; uor do 1 wish to di/ert his customers to myself in any way but by their own choice. If I make the best article the public will find it out for themselves; I leave them to judge. I am the sole agent of the Patentee, Saml.

Camp of Ist Pa. Cavalry, in the field, >Fairfax county, V'a., Sept. 18,1582. }

To Mia. 11 'in. Mann ami other La-hex of KixhncobuiUa*Valley, Mifflin county, Pa. .-

Ladies :?Having been requested by myBattalion to acknowledge the receipt of acostly and very beautiful flag, this day re-ceived by the Ist Battalion of the Ist Reg-iment of Penna. Reserve Cavalry, as apresent from a number of ladies, residentsof Kishaooquillas Valley, Mifflin county,Pa., as a token of their respect and appre-ciation for the heroic and gallant mannerin which the Ist Battallion conducted itselfon that memorable occasion, theUth ol Au-gust, 1862, at the sanguinary, terrific andterrible battle of Cedar Mountain ; andwhile 1 tender you, kind ladies, the sincereand heartfelt thanks of the Battalion foryour splendid and most magnificent pres-ent, F assure you in behalf of the officersand men of the Battaliou, (it affords methe greatest gratification to be able to doso) that their object, aim and desire willever bo to protect, preserve inviolate, andrespect that flag, not only for the sake ofour national emblem, and flattering compli-ment displayed on its face, but for the sakeof its fair donors, (Heaven bless them.)The bare knowledge of our being remem-bered by our fair and loved ones at home,willol itself be an incentive for us to press011 in the performance of our duty, in ham-stringing and annihilating this unholy andhell born rebellion. And when it shall bespoken of as a thing that was, and our glo-rious old banner again floats in triumphwherever it did, then, and not till then,will \vc sheath our sabres and return toour peaceful homes, pleasant valleys, andhappy firesi !cs, bringing with us (withthe help of God) our flag, untarnished andundimtned, as an evidence of our right tothe approving prayers and smiles of the.good and generous throughout our land,(and especially the ladies of Kishacoquil-las \ alley.) Again, ladies, permit me, inbehalf of the officers and men of my Bat-tallion. to thank you kindly lor your lovelyflag. It shall never want protection whilea man of the Ist Battalion exists to swinga sabre, or a standard bearer, while thereis a man left of the gallant Captain J. P.Taylor's company (every man ol' which Iam prond of. and their friends have goodreason to be) to take the place of thebrave ami heroic sergeant Bonnet.

In conclusion you willplease pardon mefor saying a word in reference to the othertwo Battalions of our Regiment, for whomI. entertain the highest esteem and regard,and it was simply owing to circumstancesthat they did not take so conspicuous a partas did the Ist at Cedar Mountain, 1 theybeing at the time detached in other partsid the field, where they rendered importantservice and where they would have beenbut too glad to have given a good aceou.: t;<t themselves, had an opportunity been af-forded thorn.) And if it be so, and fromobservation 1 have no duubt it is, that theentire Reserve Corps is composed of likematerial, then may the old Keystone Statewell be truly proud of her noble sons inthe army; and as I am an outsider, a na-tive of New York, a resident of California,where my wife and little loved ones noware, (011, how I long to see them) and hav-ing no political, congressional, State, or oth-er axe to grind, on this side of the Pacificat least, 1 may justly, I hope, be consideredunbiased, and I assure you a finer body ofmtn than Pennsylvania has in the field,especially the Ist Regt. Reserve cavalry, 1never saw, and 1 have seen something ofsoldiering and war, this being the thirdthat 1 have participated in. A very largemajority of them seem to think that notnly the reputation oi their regiment but

of ,he;r State to a great extent, Mependcdup.m their individual good conduct, andact accordingly ; and it requires not the eyeof a physiognomist to see iu nearly everysoldier's face of our regiment, that high-toned, moral character that goes to makeup the pure patriot arid true soldier, everwillingto sacrifice home, fricuds, affluence,3'ea everything held sacred and dear, andto endure hardships, privations, want andsufferings of every character an I kind im-aginJjle?(all of which are synonymouswith war, civil war, grim visaged war, suchas we now find iu our land) the gloriouspride, pomp aud circumstance' of which is(with us at least to a great extent playedout) all for the sake of his country, hisgovernment and his flag : but these oncerescued and replaced upon a basis as firmas the rock of ages, then let me bespeakfor the boys, 011 their return (at least forthose who are permitted to do so) to theirloved valley Kishacoquillas, a kind andcordial reception?such a one as only thenoble and the b ave are entitled to, and. uch a one as the virtuous and the purealone know how to give. Please pardonIhe extreme length of this article, audbelieve me, respected ladles,

TERHIRLE ACClDENT.? Yesterday after-noon about 4 0 clock, as Brower, sonof the Pour House Steward, and anotherman were driving a one horse wagon downMarket .street, a hog got under the horsenear Graver's Hotel, causing him to ruuaway. The animal was a powerful one,and young Brower held ou to the lines forsome time, when he unfortunately jumpedout and his leg becoming entangled in thelines he was dragged at full speed acrossthe square, his head striking the stoneswith great force. His skull is badly bro-ken, and he sustained other injuries whichrender his recovery extremely doubtful.He was removed to his father's residenceat the Poor House. Mr. Brower lately losta daughter, is himself sick at this time, andhas now added another severe affliction.

Tell the Truth and Shame the Devil!

I AM told that Samuel B. Haines has saidto a number of Mifflin county farmers,

that he made the same kind of horse powerlong since, which I am now making, (Helton'sPatent) and that he found it was out good andabandoned it. and if any one doubts it he canshow them tjie wheels. The object of (Jiiscommunication is to give a history of thosewheels as related to me by those who claimto know the truth, as fellows:

Lewis Wialer some years since brought to,this county a Pelton Horse Power. It wasleft in a place where 9ome one drove againstit with a wagon and broke it. lie took it toSamuel B. Haines to get it repaired; Mr.Haines did not (perhaps could not) repair it,but set it in the cellar of his shop, where itremains, aud is what be shows as boing ofhis own make. This summer Lewis Wislersold it to W. P. Graham, giving him an orderfor it, but Mr. llaines refused to deliver it.The inference is easily drawn.

I have no objection to his making any kindof machines he bus a right to make; uor do1 wish to di/ert his customers to myself inany way but by their own choice. If I makethe best article the public will find it out forthemselves; I leave them to judge.
