The stars,' which shone brilliantly in, the southern heavens, io<l which could be seen glimniering through the polar canopy, added greatly to thebeauty of the upcctftclc.” I The cause of the phenomenon has for years past been a subject of much speculation among the learned of the world, but nothing certain or ’■ reliable has ever been produced. Astronomers hare told us that it was the reflection of the Arctic iceberg under the illumination of the God of Day ; but rational as the idea seems, philosophers have hooted at it, and attempted to explain it on electrical principles—philoso phers in tbeir turn, have been laughed at, and the matter has been an uncertain mystery, i'et the results of Sunday night's display have proved beyond doubt that electricity has, to say the least, a great deal to do with the so-called Au rora Borealis of the Temperate Zones. All over our State, (we read in our exchanges,) the tele graphic wires were rendered useless on that evening, ,aud at Harrisburg one of the operators cbanceil to one of the witos, and was "thrown, by the violence of the shock which he received, actons the room.” And, moreover, philosophy as now tpugbt,.(aad actual observa- tion,) deiaonst^ttes^heifact that the Earth’s »t- nosphcrc, when surcharged with electricity, is rcndercd brigitl; .and,on Sunday , night .last, pur forced to add gn additipbalblanket m their beds, to prevent a chill—not to mention lie visible frost on Monday morning. A .ncjr sabjecl for investigatiob, nt any tati?,. is presen ted to our philosophers, and we think they will finally and universally adopt the opinion, that electricity has more to do with the phenomenon of the Northern Lights than the reflection of the tun upon the icebergs of the Arctic Regions. ATTSStriKD RoEßEur.—-Ou Tbursdftj morning last, as Geo. .\Volm, desk ip Plack’s stqre-aqross the way, was opening tke store, he observed'a Snn passing with several pair of boots -and a pair of shoes on his arm. The man -looked s little suspicious, which prorap ted .George to ask him' where he had obtained his goods, and the stranger replied' that ho" had got them at the I’eoplcs’ ; Store. This confirmed George’s suspicion, as he observed .that the proprietor of the Stipe Store had, not jet opened liis cstablisluuent and consequently was not about, and b.e plied the fellow with a few more '{ucstionß which he could not answer satisfacf Urih, wbenhc determined to take the boots from tie chop, to which operation lie did notserious iy object, but afterwards made himself scarce, hheo Mr. Kimball opened his store shortly af terwards, he missed several pair of bpots which lad been loft hanging close to the show window, and on examination ho found that one half of a broken pane of glass had been, slid.up past the '■dher, andthe boots thus taken out.' On making known his loss the boots captured a ehort time .previous were shown him and imme* diately identified. When we consider .that this operation was performed after - daylight and when a number of persons were qn the street, ve think it about as bold an one as could well kc undertaken. * MisisTEßUL.—Our town, we venture to say, m blessed, in every church, with not only good P«tors, but very excellent preachers, and our Pwple would be pleased to listen nightly to •heir productions of mind pod spirit; yet it is tttrtmely gratifying oeoasionoliy, ? both to peo- P « and pastors, to have ,p change in the shape of a learned minister of the Gospel, from a dls *“>««• Altoona; from the inducements it bolds ®l t° invalids and kaflwtPg in the spinmer season, is blaSsedpanlo 'Fith strange preachers. - Oh Sunday Dr. Alday from tlm Philadelphia Con wtnee preached two meet excellent sermons in ** Methodist church.

Their vo cations arojvoried aad suitable, comprising far mers, carpenters, cabinet-makers, tinners, prin ters, teachers, preachers, stone-masons, mer chants. attorneys, clerks, &c. &c. Having now secured nbont the complement fixed upon in the first place, the managers of the affair will issue a call fpr ji meeting of those interested, to be held in the bourse of a few weeks, to appoint a committee to visit and repori upon proposed lo cations for the colony, &c. Several poipts are offered, and strong inducements ore hold out to secure the settlement, but no one .is able to give anything mote than , a vsgne guess as to where the choice will fall.—Persons at any time desi ring. information as - to the Colony, should ad dress John A.

It is the intention of the company to have all the pipe laid down through the streets by the time tl\e- reservoir and gas works aip fin ished, so that water and gas can beconveyed to all parts of the town as noon as If is received into the reservoir and manufactured at the gas house.

Another of a mermaid, with a womnn’-s head and fishes tail, likely the same one we read of in P. T. Bar naul's life of himself -together with others which vvo did not stop to admire. Very few of ouf citizens exhibiting a desire to “ go in” and “ get squeezed” or. humbugged-, the proprietor pulled up stakes- and left next morning. The people of.

B. P. ROSE, Secretary. Altoona, Sept 1, 1859-Bt. Sunday School Celebration. Messrs'. McGrcm & Dees The scholars, teachersi and ‘friends of the “Union Sabbath School,” belonging to the vicinity of Gwin’s School House, in Logan township, held a cele bration on Thursday last, 25th inst. At nine o'clock in the 'morning the scholars and teach ers met in the school-room and afterwards form ed in protesaioh- in classes, each teacher taking the head of hi&or her class. In front was car ried a beautifully painted and decorated banner, having on one side the words “ UNION SUNDAY SCHOOL;.” and; on the other side the words “JUST AS THE TWIG IS BENT THE TREE’S INCLINED.” gor this banner the school is mainly indebted; to the late lamented Dr. G. D. Thomas,! of Ailtoona, who procured it for the school Bogie twh months previous to his death. Thus they marched under the supervision of the officers of the school—their only music the sweet voices of the children who song “ Away, away to the Sabbath School,” —until they reached the grove selected, .for the future exercises of the day, near the residence of the Superintendent, (Hon. J. L Gwin) where, after a short address by him, t&e .sotiool was dismissed. A number of swingsihad bfcen put up which were soon re sorted to by those fond of that amusement, while others joined in friendly conversation. Here were to he found the aged, who had attained their fourscore years, down to the little pratler in its mothers; { arms. Parents, children and grand-children were brought together—friend ships .were renewed—neighbors met not as they ordinarily meet,; having only time to speak and part, but with leisure to hold friendly conversa tion with each other. It is thus a community is strengthened'in its friendships and its plans of usefulness. There the Sabbath school as a living reality is thought before the vision of many who, perhaps do not see it at other .times.— The very looks of the children seemed to say “ come then with us (to the Sabbath School) and we will do the 4 good.” The table haying been spread, all Were invi- ted to come and partake of the goods things with which it was so bountifully ladehed. After .thanks were offered to Almighty God for his goodness !,in seeding the rain, the fruitful sea son und atmndagt harvest, and his blessing im plored, all pyespnt to the number of 130 or 140 partook of the dinner. Dinner over, two of the scholjira recited a dialogue and two others delivered addresses which were listened to with interest. |A discussion was then bad as to the propriety of Sunday School celebrations! After heating 6f both: sides, a vote was taken which showed a large majority in favor of annual cel eOrations. | A resolution was also adopted fa voring holding of a Convention of the fri ends ofSabbath Schools at an'early day. Thoschol an were ; then dismissed to engage in their re creations jinti! the time to return to theirhom.es arrived. |A number: of persons from Altoona an&otherjparts'of the county were present and CzpreuedlAhempsfres well pleased, not a single incident occurred to mar the pleasure of the day. ; Thus ended the third annual celebration of the school referred to.

For . this purpose, Dr. Boat otter Kny fa»- tfodneed to this country a preparation bearing Us name, which is not a.nqtr medi<ji4e,-bat one that haa been tried for years, giving Bolistec tion to all who haw used it. » The Bitter* o®emo powerfully uphn the stomach, bowels, tuid luver, restoring them to , 4 . healthy and vigorous action,- and thus, by fhesimplt pro cess of 'ntture, enaMe the sys tejo to triumph oVerdisease. ,i For the oteo of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Nau wa, Flatulency ,EoB3 of'Appetite,or anyßilioua Conmlunts, arising from a morbid Unction of tho Stomach or Bowels, producing.tirainps. Dysentery, Colic, Cholsra Morbus* &«., these Bitters hare no equal. Diarrhoea, dysentery os flux, so gdhcndbr con tracted by new settlers, and cauSed principally by the change of water anddiet, viral be speedily i regulated by a brief use of this preparation. Dyspepsia, a disease which is -probably more prevalent, in all its various; forme, than any other, and the cause of which may always be attributed to derangements of the digestive organs, can be cured without foil by using ! HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BISTERS, as per i directions on tho bottle. For thia disease every physician will recommend Bittcrhof some kind; then why not use an article known; to be infal lible ? All nations have their Bitters, as a pre venflße of disease and strengtbeher of the ays? tem in general; and among them all there is' not to be found a more healthy people than the Germans, from whom this preparation oma- - nated, based upon scientific experiments which have tended to prove the value of this great preparation in the scale of medical science. Feveil and Ague. —This trying and provok ing disease, which fixes its relentless graap on the body of man, reducing him to a mere sha dow in a short time, and rendering him phy sically and mentally useless, ca|n be driven from the body by the use of HOSTETTER’S RENOWNED BITTERS. Further,,none df the above-stated diseases can be contracted, even in exposed situations, if the Bitters arc used os per directions. And as they create nausea nor offend tho palate, and render Un necessary'any change of diet or interruption of ordinary pursuits, but promote sound sleep and healthy digestion, the complaint is re moved as speedily as is consistentiwith the pro duction of a thorough and permanent cure. .For Persons ia Advanced Pears, who are suffering from an enfeebled constitution and' infirm body, these Bitters arc invaluable as a restorative of strength and vigor, and need only be tried to bo appreciated. And to a mother while nursing these Bitters arc imlis-i pcnsable, especially where the mother’s nour ishment is inadequate to the demands of the child, consequently her- strength must yield, and here it is where a good tonic, such as Hostctter’a Stomach Bitters, is needed to Impart temporary strength and vigor t<j the system. Ladies should by all means try! this remedy for all cases of debility, and, before so doing, should ask their physician, who, if ho is acquainted with the virtue of the Bittersj will recommend their use in ail cases of weakness. CAUTION—We caution the public against using any of the many imitations or counterfeits, but ask for llostetter’s Celebrated Stomach Bitters,' and see that each bottle bas tho words “ Dr. J.
