Last Sabbath evening, the tenant house on
Mr. M. Fox's farm, about a mile from Wood

moved out the week before, and the house was

doubtedly the work of an incendiary, as the
carpenter's tools, which were left in the hmise
'on Saturday night, were found scattered .
along a bank some distance from the house.

burg, when it will be further extended to con
nect with the Broad Top road, at some point
between Hopewell and Bloody Run. Then
we will have, from Hollidaysburg to Bedford,
a continuous route and we may reasonably
expect that nine -tenths, of all the passenger
travel to that place and the Bedford Springs,
that now goes by way of Broad Top, will pre
fer this road. and avoid the dangerous trestle
work, which has heretofore been the great
objection to the Broad Top Railroad.—L'egieer.

Maj. D. W. Mullin, 11. S. Assistant Intertol
Revenue As essor for this county, tact with
an accident, near Hopewell, on last Thursday,
by which he cause near losing his own life - and
that of a valuable luirse which he was
driving. The Major was travelling in the di
rection of this place in his sulky, and, nearing
a small bridge which crosses Yellow Creek,
this side of Hopewell discovered that the
structure was impassible, and thinking that
he could ford the stream, below, he 'drove in.
He had advanced but a short distance when
the animal he was driving suddenly plunged
beneath his depth. Knowing that safety de
pended on keeping the horses head in the di
rection of the other shore, he urged him for
ward, but the swollen condition of the
stream curried the vehicle downwards and
prevented him from striking the desired point.
He finally succeeded in gettikg near shore and
endeavored to land, but the horse in attempt
ing to scale,the steep bank, was thrown back
upon the sulky, and it was only with the
greatest exertion that the Major was enabled
to extricate himself and reach the shore.
Throwing off his heavy overcast, he next turn'
ed his attention to saving else horse, and
sprang into the water•for that purpose, but it
was not until assisted by souse teamsters who
fortunately happened that way, that he was
enabled to get the animal out of the stream.
Luckily no further damage was sustained than
a complete clacking, and after resting his
faithful horse, the Major repaired to the house
of Mr. A. S. Ritchey, and dried his clothing,
after which he took his way to Bedford, feel
ing that he had indeed made a narrow escape
with his life. We arc informed that all the
bridges between here and Hopewell are merely
miserable man traps, and it will not he until
some life is lost that they will be repaired.—

A FRIGHTFUL SUICIDE—A Man susicr
the influence of liquor shoots himself through the
heart.—On last Friday evening, between six
and seven o'clock, the town of Huntingdon
was thrown into a high state of excitement by
a report that Johu Schmearsman, the proprie
tor of a Lager Beer and Billiard Saloon, op
posite the Morrison House, on the west corner
of Allegheny and Third streets, had commit
ted suicide by shooting himself • through the
heart with a revolver. The facts of the case
are about these : Schmearsman had been
drinking freely through the day and in the
evening he procurred a horse and buggy and
drove out iu the direction of Alexandria.
short distance beyond Smithfield, in full
view of several persons, his horse pursuing a
very moderate gate, he drew out a revolver
and shot himself; the ball entering the heart.
An inquest was held eliciting the facts above
stated. He leaves a wife and two small chil
dren. Ile appeared to be doing a brisk inisi
ness. This is the second victim upon the al
tar of Bacchus in the short .space of two or
three weeks which we have been compelled to
chronicle. Who is the next victim?

We are next brought to speak of the schools.
There are no private schools or academies. By
the'rePoft of Mr. TusseY, the County Superin,
tendaut, for 1870, there arc ten public schools.
Eight rattle and two female teachers I judge
the inhabitants are not strong:y impressed
with the idea of female suffrage, but this will
be relitedied , When; Wommi are elected school
directors under the new act. The average
salary per month, is about thirty three dollars.
No.: of male miholars . 27 1,. fMnaleS average
No. attending school 1.29. The amount of tax
levied for school purposes was $1,622.99. The
item in relationi io the schools, we mention, is
the length of term. We hesitate—regret to
say that it is but four month in a year, when
will the people have a proper appreciation for
education.
By the county paper we are informed that
is this section there is contained great mineral
wealth. Several meetings have been held at
the Forge school house, a company organized
to make developments, . test metals, solicit

we are not Mistaken, at ]cast there were
"Books" present CA different meetings. No
doubt there will soon be a host of adventures
on hand seeking fortunes, and Barre:, will be•
come as famious as California. We will add
this advice to the executive. committee :
Do not make your shares of stock too small,
and do not listen to the suggestions of any
one, who like the roan that said if the shares
of the Stone creek It. iL, stock were made
fiveidollas he would take two. - moire.

RAILROADS AND IRON WORKS IN
FULTON COUNTY, PENNA.—_he citizens
of the northern portion of Fulton county arc
taking steps for the immediate construction of
railroads which will bring their rich mineral
lands at once into the market. Our. columns
recently contained an account of a large meet
ing held at Burnt. Cabins. Fulton county, for
the purpose of constructing a road from that
point to Mciunt Uhion, Huntingdon county, on
the Pennsylvania Central, a distance of about
twenty five miles. Joseph Mifflin, Esq., is now
engaged in surveying the route. A route is
also to be surveyed from ;tura Cabins via
Sideling Hill Gap to a point on the Hiinting
don and Broad Top Railroad, to reacts the
bituminous coal of the Nad Top region.
These roads when completed will be brought
into connection with the Cumberland. Valley
at Cltambersburg, by means of as road through
Cowan's Gap, the route of which has already
been surveyed.
The road through Cowan's and Sideling
Hill Gaps to the south or southeast side of
Broad Top, vill form an important link in the
long ago projected South Pennsylvania: road.
We hope to seethe work vigorously prosecuted
as it will still further open up and develop the
immense mineral wealth of Southern Penusyl
vauia as :•ell as afford the competition neces
sary to obtain fair rates of transportation.
The Bedford Inquirer clips_from the Fulton
Rcpublicen subsequent not'••e to this effect :
On last Friday, surveyors were at Burnt
Cabins,.preparing to survey a route for a road
from Mt. Pleasant Iron Works to Orbisonia.
Several routes are in contemplation ; one by .
way of Fort Littleton, and then clown the
creek, the other by way of Shade Gap. We
hope the survey witl be made through Fort
Littleton.
Apropos of the iron trade to be expected
from this new railroad, the Inquirer notices
the completion a the • second stack at Broad
Top
The second steak at the Kemble yurnace, at
Riddlesburg, was completed last week, and
"fired up" on Staturday last, and on Monday
morning the blast was piston. It has been in
process of construction, since last spring,'and
presents a finer appearance than No 1; the
stone work being more regular and finer cut.
The stack is the same size as the other, viz:
00 feet high-45 of which is stone work and
10 boiler iron; width of both 14 fret, and
tunnel head 3 feet, and is, in, fact, an exact
dublicate of No 1. The tunnel head, however,
of the new furnace has n "Bell and Hopper,"
which forces all the gases down to the heating
ovens and boilers, so that it is smokeless, and
one unacquainted with it 'would never know it
was in operation. Besides the new stack there
have been also added a new engine and 6
boilers of same capacity and size its .the old
ones. 43 new coke ovens have been also built,
of the same pattern as the others, and the
scene around Iliddles!mrg at night is brilliant
with the light from over eighty di - A
-rent ovens,
making it as light as day.: - • -
110. 1 stack, 'which was put in blast July 3,
1861, is still running and doing well ; the an
ticipation was for it to produce, 150- tons per
week, but it has exceeded thnt: Since January
1, it has been producing 170 to 183 'tons p,
week--of good quality of iron. Riddlesburg
now presents quite en anituatel appearance
with the completed furnace in operation,
which is one of the largest in • the country.
Its capacity judging from the product of stack
No. 1, is from 340 to 350 tons per week or
over
. 50 tons per day. It is the first large, hot
blast furnace erected in our country. The
erection and management from the beginning
has been under Mr. David Worden, the pres
ent-efficient Superintendent, and he has, fully
demonstrated that Bedford county can makt"
iron as cheaply if not more cheaply than al
most any other known locality in the coun
try.—L%.S. Railroad fluistcr.
TIIE WORIZIORS MAlt' SCIrOOL —A
LITERARY ENTERTAINEENT.-MT,
,Editor: An.
impression has long since been made that
school exhibitions should not be classed with
the means tised to promote an educational in
terest in our schools. It has been said that
the hours intended for the study of important
branches were taken to prepare for them. And .
that the excitement generated by s.:cliprepa'
ration would divert the attention of pupils from'
their more useful studies. I cagnot admit the
objections advanced against them.
Thorough preparation may be made for an
exhibition, or literary entertainment, at the
close of a school, without consuming any
school hours. With efficient organization, and
two or three mouths to prepare, pupils can
easily succeed without neglecting their studies.
Such en entertainment was gotten, up by
Mr. Weir's school in Warriors Marsh, in con
nection with several students of the Milton
school, and a few belonging to others ; where
in all study in connection with , which, was
done independent of school hours. And it is
to tell your renders something about this, that
I ask for this article a place in your paper. I .
think it is due to the parents, as well as the
children, in this community whose zeal in the
cause of education* is so apparent, that a no
tice of the entertainment given here on the
evening of March 28th, should be permitted a'
place in the public journals of the country.
The exercises consisted of declamations,
dialogues, charades, tabelaus, songs, and vocal
and instrumental music—the successful per
formance of which was evinced by the great
interest manifested, from 7 o'clock .till mid
night, by several hundred of our best citizens.
The room was as densely packed that ingress,
and egress bad to be made through the Win.
dews, which had to be taken out to afford suP
ficient veatillation. One lady swooned, and
had to be removed through a window. On no
occasion, within the recollection of the oldest
inhabitant, has there been so great an interest
displayed as on this. And since the exhibi
tion its grand success has been the only theme
of discussion
Among the envrcises many scenes in high
life were portrayed, and many that would ap
ply to other conditions of society, such as
the would be nristocreand opulent, the hypo
critic, the woman in possession of her "rights,"
the talking world, the different sects, etc.
Those who distinguished themselves most by,
their proficiency in the parts allotted to them,
and.have thus merited the plaudits of the com
munity are the two Miss Ralstons, Miss A. L.
Patterson, H. E. Weston, L. Hutchiion, C. B.
Shank, A. Hyskell, and L. Addleman ; and'
Messrs. J. Addleman, G. Devore, W. Patterson,
J. Wills, ane G. Gayer, and many ethers who
deserve a place in this list.

JUDGE TAYLOR. NOT DEAD.—On open
ing the Hollidaysburg Register we were star
tled by the heading, .Judge Taylor Gone!"
We had not beard of the death of the distin
guished judge who presides in the courts of.
the Twenty-fourth judicial district. Happily,
instead of an obituary there was half a column
of flippant denunciation from which we gleaned
the fact that the learned gentleman has eon
sen ted to become an independendent candidate
for president judge of the xxlych judicial dis
trict at the next election. This determihation
of Judge Taylor will . relieve the canvass for
the judgeship of that district of its partisan .
features, and will defeat the designs of those
who seek to drag the judiciary in: the filth. of
party warfare. While Judge Taylor is a Rt 4
publican, he is not a partisan. He has pre
sided with eminent ability over the courts of
the district for more than twenty years, and
'has a high reputation as a lawyer ands judge.
'Twice elected by tl, unanimous suffrages of
his fellow citizens., his self-respect and his .re
gard for the dignity of his position. weuld not
permit b int tackier the arena of party,audstrug
gle for a partisan nomination. George Tay
lor is one of the ornaments cf the jndiciary
of Pennsylvania, and we hope he may live long
to preside over the courts of the -XXIYth dis
trict.—From the Harrisburg _Patriot.
• MEETING OF THE DIRECTORS *OF TIIE
BEDFORD AND BRIDGEPORT RAILROAD—ALI An-
RANGEMEN'TS MADE FOR 111 E• SPEEDY COMPLE
TION OF TIIE Roam—At a Meeting 'of the
Board of .Directors of the Bedford and Bridge
port Railroad Company, held on the 28th ult.,
at No. 218, South Fourth street, Philadelphia ,
a Committee was appointed to negotiate a loan
for our Company. The Ntamittee waited
upon a number of the leading financial men
of the State, and after mature deliberation
concluded to adopt the proposition of the!
Pennsylvania Railroad. Company. By the
terms agreed upon by the parties the Bedford
and Bridgeport Railroad ,Company is .to
. grade
and bridge their road from Mount Dallas to
Bridgeport, a distance of about 30 ruiles, and
prepare the same for the superstructure free
from debt. The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany is to furnish all the iron, rails, spikes,
chairs, cross-ties and lay the tract: with all
necessary sidings, and bUild depots, Water,
engine and other stations, and complete the
entire line between the said points ready for
traffic, and will receive in liayinent'fliSefor
all our first mortgage seven-pir cent. bdtids,
amounting to five hundred thousand dollars. ;
said bonds to be secured by : a mortgage. They
will accept the ties already purchased at our
contract prices. They agree further to' extend
our road within three years . from its present
terminus, at Bridgeport, to the Maryland State
line, in the direction of the Cumberland cont.
mines, provided the proprietors of said coal
mines, or railroad company or companies in
Maryland will build a road from said mines to
said State line sb its td honlis6Br66itit 6:1;iil ex-
tentien
The 'Company have informatiou from C. 11.
Dalton, President or the Cumberland and
Pennsylvania Railroad Company located at
Boston, Mass., (where a ast amount of the
Cumberland coal i= consumed) that a connec
tion with us is highly desirable. Inasmuch
as this is the shortest and most direct route
from these celebya.ted,coal
,fields to .the nuum
facturing cities of the -Eastern sea , bourd, we
predict - the early completion of this Connect
ing link. 1:•e shall hail this as the era of in:
creased traffic over the Broad Top Road, which
we hope will ultimate in the completion of a
road along sue Southern border ,o long need

The speedy completion of our road is now
assured, and there is no good, reason why the
'cars Should'ifot be running from Mount Dallas
to Bridgeport by the first dly • August at

this city, was instantly killed on Wednesday'
afternoon last by being run over by a section
of eight cars As they.were being switotrsot off
on to the tract: leading to the company's dhops
at the *pet; end 'of the city. We are informed
that he left home on Tneplay - morning, against
his mother's injunctions, and that ,
was heard from him except a vane report
that he had 'gone . west. This, we believe,
proved to be the case, and that be was on his
way back on a freight train, which he alighted
from a short distance above town, and joined
another boy and the two sat for sometime on
the embankment until the train that supplies
the Shops here with coal came along, when
Baer started to mount the first section , in —or
der to ride down into town, when doe -flipped,
or stumbled, and' fell harnaiately . aprasithe

THE Huntingdon JOURNAL leas been
digging at advertising agents, some of whom
are bad enough, but it does not follow that
the system itself is had, if properly carried
out. The JOURNAL professes to charge $lOO
per column for a year's advertising, say 25
inches. We have a contract with a leading
advertising, house, by which 25-inches. would
'yield no $l3O. Deduct per tentage, and it
nets us $97 50, only $2 50 less than the Jour,
,asks, payable monthly in. cash after first
insertion. For our part we recognize few
agents, and hold these wino do to strict ac
count. Except in rare instances, where trade
nnswers the, purpose of money, we refuse all
offers of that kind, ad we make it n point to
deal with our patrons at home whenever we
can use t4pii , goods.—Lewieicrwn Gazette.
