William KauEman, conductor of the wood train on this division of the Pennsylvania railroad, had his feet badly frozen during the late cold spell, that he will be confined to tile house, it is thought, for some time income. A little girl, one stinging cold day last week, stool on Mifflin street, from 8:30 o'clock a. s. to 12 a., playing truant. tier feet must have been terribly frozen. What was the cause of this? Parents, see that your children do not act thus. • 21 young mutt larded M.

On Thursday morniailast, at live o'clock, in ibis place, the thermometer indicated 25° below • zero, and stood from,7,o'elock to 8:30 at 20° below. At Alexandria it seas 30 0 . The universal testimony is that it wits the coldest weather ever experielleed in this place. We learn that a Woman in this. place, during the late cold snap, froze the point of her nose by pressing it against the window while try ing to see how a female passer was dressed. Hope the freezing will make it sore enough to prevent her from poking it into other people's business. Mr. Ileury Nell' writes us, from Netl's Mills, under date or January 30, and :;eys: “The mercury in C. Wilder's thermometer, a stand ard iustratuent, last night at 9 o'clock stood at IC° below zero, and this morning at 7:30 it was 31° below that point. This is 12° lower than i remember seeing it for twenty years." Mr. Jacksou Larnberson. contractor for the carpenter• work of the car shops, now under course of erection, in this place, fell from the roof of ono of tho buildidgs, a distance of sev enteen feet, on Monday last, breaking no hones but severely - bruising his head and side.

A NEW PAPER TO BE STARTED ! Ptil, AHEAD!-:1 very bland and insinuating gentleman approached us, the other day, and asked us to publish a little note from a wrong ed :in outraged citizen, fer the purpose of setting herself right before the community, at the same time assuring us that it was all right. Unhesitatingly we gave our consent, with out any further preliminaries; however, upon reading it we fain wouldhave suppressed it, but having given our editorial word there v. - as no other altetnative but publish "right or wrong." Our readers will excuse us. We will be more circumspect in the future. Here it is: HUNTINGDON COUNTY JAIL, CELL No. 4, tebrusry 4, Er for of Journal :—I want yon to under stand, and I want everybody to understand, that my name is Maria Montgomery.

I'm the right wo man for the Globe ! Let hint come on MARIA MONTGOMERY. A GOOD "SKUNK" COUNTY.—HUnt ingdmn county must be a healthy place for the propagation of that species of odoriferous animal.yclept pole cat or skunk. According to a statement in last week's JOURNAL, three thousand one hundred and ninety of these highly perfumed creatures, which, according to the Frenchman's statement, "looklike one possum in de face," were captured in that county during the past year, for which the county commissioners paid in premiums, $1,595.00. The JOURNAL calls this "an outrageous im position upon tax-payers," and calls for au im mediate repeal of the law. The JOURNAL also intimates that somebody has been "farming" this scalp business, as one family in Barrec township has been paid for 503 pole cat scalps ! Skunks have no business in that township. It isn't a healthy locality for their business. Besides the large number ofpolc cats,as given above, there were , captured daring the same time 22 wild cats, at two dollars, 184 foxes, at the same, 351' owls, at one dollar, and 832 hawks at the same; making the total amount of pre miums for scalps for 1872, $4,390.00 ! We can account for this intim:l , o.e • slaughter of wild animals and things, in our neighboring county only in this way: Since the repeal of the law in this county our wild cats, foxes, owls, hatvks and skunks have almost in a body migrated to iluntingdon, ostensibly for n.o other purpose than to be prematurely snatch ed bald headed bythe industrious scalp hunters of that county. That's it, Mr. Durborrow.— Bec?fort? Gazelle. A YOUNG MAN COMMITS SUIUIDI.I. Isaac Miller, who committed suicide, near Mapleton, on Saturday the 25th inst., Was buried on Sunday following. The facts in the case, as sent ns by a friend, are about as follows : He was about 18 or 19 • years of age and quite stout built. He had been rather indis posed for some time and was taking medicine from Dr. I. J. Meals, of Mill Creek. On Satur day his mother gave him a powder to take that the Doctor had left or sent him, after taking it he said that was all the powder ho would need and went up Stairs to his room, and in a very they minutes. the report of us pis tol was heard. On his sister going up stairs she found him lying across the bed, with his head to the wall, covered with blood, and a large Army Revolver lying under the front side of the bed. Tim ball had entered the centre of bin forehead and lOdzad i:r the back port of the head. This occurred about 1:0 o'clock A. Sc. and be lived in an entirely in sensible condition, till about:; o'clock, r. x. when he died. to calloe has been assigned for the rash act <•xcept the preautuption 'of temporar.rinsanity. It is said that on several occasion,, a short time before, he spoke of leav ing and doing things for tho last time, &c. The Brotherhood of the Union of Mapleton, of which he was a member, were at the funer al in full regalia and buried hint with appro priate ceremouie, TWO HUNDRED WEST HUNTINGDON' Lora FOR SALE. • Apply to R. ALLISON HILLER, No. 228 k Hill St. LOCAL Ntws.—Our Correspondent "George" sends us the following from Upper Through Creek, under date of the 31st ult.: • The weather here is extremely cold. The mercury, on the evening of the 29th, at 9 o'clock, was at 20° below 0; at 4 o'clock, a. at., on the 30 that 32.; at a o'clock, ;0° ; at 6 o'clock, 30° ; ?o'clock, 29°, and at 8 o'clock, 26°. When it rises above 20° it is not worth mentioning. Now is this for low? And yet on that day the seemingly industrious class started for the river with lumber. We would advise our worthy citizen that wears the quadruped looking cap, to be care ful of it or he might be under the necessity of having some of its feet amputated. Other correspondents talk of railroads until their tales become a bore, whilst we poor Trough Creekers are living in blissful igno rance of any contemplation that will bring a railroad through this fertile valley to mar oar peace or disturb our rest. The screaming lo comotives, that travel through Smith's Valley, Hare's Valley, Elysium' Branch, East Broad Top, and all other valleys in the county, do not trouble us; we are near enough. We have a splendid outlet. We can go to Huntingdon two ways, via Hawn,' and via Mill Creek, and splendid roads. The one via Mill Creek is un der the supervision of Mr. Boring, who should be praised for his energy, as well as his pa tience and indulgence to his employees, at least to ten or twelve of them last fall. Our val ley is fertile, producing (as you said in an issue or two ago) the best quality of potatoes in the county. We claim this for buckwheat too; years ago this was said by way of a slur, but of late years we have outgrown such inu endoes, and at present we are prepared to say that the Trough Creek Valley folks exercise more taste in horses, spring-wagons and modes of conveyance Huta any other portion of the county of the same area. Our people are in telligent and very hospitable. Our sheriff is a perfect stranger here, never seen onlyon his way to or from some other locality. Our far mers have been devoting that and money in procuring lime. Lana is becoming enriched steadily, and few generations will pass ere we will stand foremost in point of fertility aad land easily tilled, and at present lea can safe ly boast of our reads in summer as well as in winter. Our sleighing facilities are magnifi cent—ten miles of a road almost perfectly lev el. We have also splendid ehurches—a new one contemplated near Pine Grove School House—and we cannot say aught against our schopls and school houses, only that thirteen lights out of one house seems too much, espe cially when the mercury is so low, but our directors have a great deal to contend with. The bounty tax, however, is the one mcs t complained of by the people. It certainly does seem evident that the issuing of bonds was done by the officials with little regard to the interests of the people. There should, at least, have been a record kept of the amount, and to whom issued. The tax-payers have been burdened to the Utmost, and at present the end is not known. We are told by the state ment published that the amount to be paid yet is about three thousand dollars, whilst rumor says this is only gueSs work or suppo sition. Be this as it may, the law should cotn• pet officials to keep accounts of official bad ness with accuracy. Travel has ceased via the county bridge— workmen have it obstructed, and will for a few weeks. 1 Our correspondent "Clay" sends us the fol lowing, under date of Jaauary 31 st : Rev. Mason's enacting, at Saltillo, has closed. Some twenty have professed faith in Christ, and a Protestant Methodist Church has been organized by him at that place consisting of twenty-ene members. The East Broad Top" Railroad corps of engi neers are now engaged in locating a sew route from Saltillo to Sideling Hill. Many of the formers in this locality arc now engaged in getting out tics for the E. B. T. R. R. Sledding is very good and the farmers are improving it. The weather is extremely cold, - with the mercury 13° below zero. We noticed, ,in the last JOCRNAL, that a cor respondent from Orbisonia, signing himself "Oliver Cromwell," charges us with making some very wild statements in our reports to you, and rather blamea us with intentional misrepresentations. Now, Mr. Editor, in send ing yen local items we always try to get the most reliable information we can, and in do iug so, if we have been wrongly informed, we are always willing to take back or correct any misstatements we have made, and as this cor respondent seems to have bad his corns so badly pinched with the local referred to, we would gladly take back any statements we have made, were it not for his own acknowl edgment. Permit us here to quote a part of his communication "The fact of the case is he (Mr. Pierce) was at A. Carothee's hotel, in this place, on the night before Christmas, and there he met with a Mr. J. W. Scott and oth ers, who wished to go to Shade Gap, a dis tance of six miles, and he agreed to take them for so much, if they would treat, and all being made right, they 'started for Shade Gap, and it was there Mr. Pierce got drunk." Now we do consider thii a very feeble apology. No mis representation about this. Mr. Pierce agreed to take those men to Shade Gap for a certain amount, "if they would treat," and "all being made right," &e. What are we to understand by 'all being made right?" Certainly he got the whisky before he left Orbisonia, and per haps it did cot take effect until he reached Shade Gap. Our "Todd" correspondeut sends us the fol lowing, under date of 30th ult.: As you request the local news, &c., wo thought to give you a few items from here.— This (Todd) township ranks in wealth among the best in the county. Trough Creek and Plank Cabin Valleys are partly in it. Iron and coal are found here in abundance. From the top of an adjacent mountain you can look over these valleys, dotted with fine farm lion. see, churches and school houses, and see that the citizens arc not behind the age in improve meats, religion and education. We have just been on a visit to the East Broad Top coal fields. Among others is the Rocky Ridge vein, which is now being worked in two places. We visited the one worked by' Mr. John Whitney. At the entrance we met a car just emerging from the mine. The gen tlemanly conductor, Mr. James Horton, very politely invited us to take a ride, offering us a free pass fur a ride in and a walk back. The 'engineer is rather a quiet kind of a gentleman; we did not learn that be had any other name but "Dick," but he had very small feet and large ears, and ho doubt was a lineal descendant of the chap who once had a con versation with Balsam. Landing safely at the workwe found Mr. Whitney hammering away. He is working a breast of about fifty feet in depth—the vein being about six feet thick.— This is said to be the best coal in the eounty. We were told that there were from twenty to thirty sleds loaded here daily. They come from Franklin, Perry, Fulton, and all the south-east portion of this county. Some of the sleds could only make a trip is three days. Blacksmiths prefer this coal to any other that they can get. There is a great de mand for the lumps for stove purposes, they being all taken as fast as mined at an advance of 75 cents per ton. The prices are, for lump, $2 'per ton, and for fine $1,25. When we re turned to the mouth of the mine a number of sleds were loading. The line of the East Broad 'Top Railroad will run within about two miles of this open ing. We believe it runs close past one end of this vein. There seems to be no news here to note but the extreme cold weather and splendid sleigh ing, whi!h is enjoyed by all who are not afraid of freezing. We will write you again. THE LICENSE QUESTION .—A corns respondent, at ‘Varriorsmark, writes us as as follow, . "A ward is reference to persons furnishing intoxicating liquors. Are not the persons furnishing such liquors as a beverage liable for all damages sustained on account of the use of the liquors furnished? If they are not, urge upon our Legislature to pass such an net at once, requiring dealers and others furnish ing the same to be responsible for all damages sustained by the use thereof. I see in your last issue that some poor fellow has lost one footand part of the other on account of liquor. Ole poor fellow named 'Thomas Kerlin, was sent to the poor house, on last Saturday, from this place, who laid out the Saturday night previous and was badly frozen. Dr. Dunwiddie wa, called in to attend hint, who says that there is no doubt be will loose one foot and part of one of his hands. He is good fur winter quarters and may be long er at the expense of the citizens of the county. So it goes, whisky fills our poor houses, jails, and penitentiaries, and the hon est sober part of the community has to foot the bills. It is high time that every good citizen would speak out against it and on the third Friday of March will be a good time to give that expression; and further let us de mand a law making each and every individu— al responsible for all damages which may arise from the sale, gift or otherwise furnishing spiritous, vinous or malt liquors." LOCAL OPTION IN HUNTINGDON COUN TY—Grand Mass ifecting.—All friends of Tem perance are requested to meet iu Huntingdon, at the Court House, on Thursday evening, the 6th day of February next, at one o'clock, p. m., for the peerpese of organizing our County for a full vote against license at the March election. Other counties are at active work, and from end to end of the whole State, the best men of the Commonwealth have banded together to meet man's "deadly foe," at the ballot box, and crush ot.t its hateful life. Huntingdon county can and will do her part. To this end let us have a thorough organza lion.

Owing to the ice upon the railway track, a number of coal dumps ran away from the brakemen near the furnace and were thrown from the track. Miller and others went the the morning following the accident to clear up the wreck; one of the cars was hanging on a balance and in some unaccountable manner it was thrown over and caught Miller, crushing his skull and instantly killing him.

The opening illustration is a magnificent full page by J. D. Woodward, of Puncheon Run Falls, which is certainly one of the most delightful pict ures which it is possible to conceive. Further on we have three smaller illustrations by the same artist, the whole !nine' illustrative of an article on Virginia scenery, with especial ref erence to the beauties of the Blue Ridge. Mr. Woodward, as it draughtsman, certainly will rank with Thos. Moran, and we shall always regard the specimens of his exquisite taste in landscape as among the foremost attractions which the shrewdness and tact of the publish ers offer the patrons of The Aldine. "An At tack in the Rear," by J. G. Brown, a snow balling sketch, is worthy of that eminent artist's reputation, and it is in the exhibition of work from the pencils of the first painters in the country, that The Aldine is justifying the highest expectations of its friends. "Buts," by Wm. M. Cary, is a powerful delineation of a catastrophe on the plains, and the correct detail shows that this artist is no novice in the experiences of Western frontier life. The other cuts are all good and of interest scarce ly inferior to those we have specially noticed. The literature of the present number leaves nothing to be desired in the way of excellence and variety. It opens with "Ebenezer Elliott," a gossipy paper about that manly old poet, by January Searle; a second paper of the same sort is "Delfine Gay Girardin," a translation from the Spanish of Emil Castelar, by Helen S. Conant. The stories are " Over a Cabin Table," by Hiram Rich, and "The Garden of God," by Charlotte Peters. Besides, there are several miscellaneous pa.:., as "The Old Dominion," apropos to Me illustrations; "Lingering 'Super „one,” by Charles Dawson Shanty; "Mosses and Lich ens," by W. W. Bailey; "A Castle'iu the Rhine ;" "Snow" and "Poetic Children." Mu sic, Art and Literature receive their due at tention, this department of The Aldine being very ably filled. The Poems are "Peradven ture," by Julia C. R. Dorr ; "Tartar Song," by Henry Richards; "Cp in the Trees," by John Sydney, and "Bust" by the editor, who evidently believes that somo things can be done as well as others. It is written iu dia lect, which he handles with great skill and power, and will cause a sensation. $5.00 per year with premium Oif Chromes "Village Belle" and "Crossing the Moor," 14x20 inches.
