Hughes, was burned to death at Matilda Fur nace, this county, a few days since, during. the temporary absence of her parents. We are authorized by Chief Burgess Lang don, to say that no well-disposed person will be prevented from visiting the Cemetery on Sunday or any other day. The misconstruc tion of the text of the ordinances by the sex ton, has created some misunderstanding. The Burgesses and Council are determined to prevent all improper conduet and interfering with the property of private citizens upon the Cemetery grounds. Nothing else, however, is contemplated, but this much will be enforced. We are sorry to hear that our young friend, D. C. Patterson, of Eunisville, is seriously ill at college, in Poughkeepsie, N.

The item announcing that John A. Pollock, esq., had the contract for the renovation of the "division house," in last week's issue, should have read Morrison House.

Dr. Brumbaugh was promptly called in and thessed the wound and relieved the unfortunate gentleman. A gentleman inquired of us the other day where a certain store was in town. He said "they didn't advertise in the papers, and didn't know nher?lt was." "Of course not; and there's plenty others just like you. Ten to one, when you do happen in yoti will find them asleep." . Before the end of the week we expect to open our stork of Blank Books, Stationery, Blanks, &c., &c., which we expect to sell at a living profit, and yet our patrons will find them much cheaper than they have purchased the same class of articles heretofore.

Frank Skeese, youngest son of Mr. John Skeese, of Moore street, aged about eleven years, was seriously hurt, on Thursday night of last neck, by falling from the second story of the Court House to the floor below. He was sitting on the bannisters, and losing his balance, fell headlong' to the floor, break ing his nose, tincturing his arm, and other wise injuring himself. His escape from in stant death was really miraculous. Miss Mary Smearsman, of this borough, while yipping water from the cistern, on Mon day morning of last week, slipped and fell in headforemost.

"SHAKE I'OT YOUR GORY LOCKS AT US, TROD CANST NOT SAT TIIAT WS DID Ir."—Didn' t , we tell you, at the outset, that the merchant who sold his goods for cash could sell them cheaper than the merchant who sold on cred it? And don't they tell you themselves that they make you pay at least five per cent. more for your goods than you would have to pay at a - cash store ? When will everybody learn that "economy is wealth ?" Henry St Co. con tinue to sell for cash, and hundreds of new customers are taking advantage of the "tide that will bear them on to fortune." We have hung our CASH banner on the outer wall, and the the cry is, "still they come." Tug VERY LATEST-TUE BEE MICE STILL AREAD.-Beck h Fleming have just received a fresh lot of groceries of all kinds,which they are selling very low for cash.

Entering the room, the visitor gets his equivalent for ten cents by witnessing a moving panorama of the days of long ago, and in gazing upon a cap-ital array of grandeur and beauty. Little girls, dressed in the garb of Quakeresscs, add a sombre hue to the scene, while the harlequin figures of four young gentlemen give it the appearance of A. K;K. now, little flower girls with blushing sweetness invite your note-ice, and show no quarters until you acquiesce; then, should music's charms lose its Green-ness, and you in-Kline to leave the other joyt that there en- Gage you, after being served up Brown with Cream or other refreshments, (excepting Fish or bison,) the Door is open to Wood-ed Afri ca, where you Will soon be made acquainted with Mrs. (?) Martha Washington, her daugh ter, John, the son, and the General, dressed in the garb that suits an Anderson. Here you will see relics, not of Jenny Lind, I say, but of by-gone days, such as hosts have never seen. There upon the wall is a fac-simile of invitation to a party given by the original Genefal Washington and lady; a Masonic apron worn by Washington in Philadelphia; revolutionary relics like shells abound; a book printed' n 1679; a quilt 93 years old of exquisite workmanship; a beautiful assott ment of dishes, the first ever imported from China, etc., and where your tea and sandwich are prepared by ladies in quaint attire and served in old-time dishes. Altogether it is a cap-ital affolr, and we regret we cannot describe cap-a-pie in cap itals the cap.ticating appearance of the many personages or their rich and ancient cap ar isons who can be seen this evening at the cap. acious room in our county's cap itol. We cap-itulate, for fear somebody may be cap tious at our lack of cap acity to do the event justice.—Local News. Chromos are going out of fashion. Sub scribe for the JOURNAL and get the magnificent steel engraving, "Death of Antony," as a pre mium. tf ACCIDENT.—WiIIiam Chapman, a miner employed by the Rockhill Iron and Coal Com pany, at South Fossil Ore Bank, No.'2, one half mile from the new furnace at Orbisonia, w.ss drowned on the Bth instant. This man, with five others, contracted to run an air course front No. 2 bank to a gangway worked twenty or thirty years ago by Messrs. Wig tone, and supposed to be 150 yards above No. 2. The Mining Captain says they had worked about 135 yards on the day when this young man went to work, and contrary to positive instrtitions to keep a drill two feet ahead of their work, they used no drill. About two o'clock he broke through into the old work ing, which was full of water. The water poured through the air-course into the gang way below, and covered this to a depth of from 15 inches to 2 feet, which, when taking the width, from 4 to 6 feet, into considera tion, will convey an idea of the volume of water when you know that from 2 to 6 o'clock this quantity ran con tinually. Chapman had fallen the 140 feet, and was taken out dead iu the evening. An engine was run to Blount Union, that night, for his wife, and on Tuesday a special train was run from Orbisonia to Mount Union, where he was 14,.uried in the afternoon. There were from eight hundred to a thousand persons at the funeral. He was buried with the rites of Odd Fellowship. SUGGESTIONS TO SUPERVlSORS.—Sa pervisors who really desire to he cers, may uuw Inspect the highways of their district, and see where work is most needed. A man of judgment can save many dollars by gutting work in the right place, cleaning ditches by a few strokes of a hoe, and thus suffering the surface water to run off. Water standing on the side of a rode, keeps it loaded and soft, to be easily cut up by teams. Put a load of fine stones or cinder in every bad place which needs raising, bat put it in the middle of the track, and let it spread and settle that water may run off. Only smooth the top,.so that a wheel will pass over it safe. ly. A few bad places made good every spring, how soon the whole road may be im proved. Look after your bridges, see that they are safe, and the approaches easy. Noting how soon the road dries off when it is well drained, might teach every one that good drainage is the one thing most needed, and you cannot turn water from a track which is lowest in the middle.—Ex.- DECORATION DAY.—The Quartermaster General of the Army has issued a circular order to the various Division Quartermasters, as follows : "The 30th day of May has been specially designated as the day for the annual decora tion of the graves of those who died in the defense of our country. You will therefore cause the cemeteries under your charge to be put in as good condition as nracticeable prior to that day, and instruct the Superintendents, or other, in charge, to admit all organized processions or parties, - visiting them for the purpose indicated, and to extend to them all necessary facilities, so far as in their power.— All work on the cemeteries will be suspended during that day, except such as may be nec essary•in making preparations for the occa sion." Decoration day has always been observed with appropriate ceremonies in this vicinity) and preparations for the forthcoming anni versary are already being discussed. RICHARD ASHMAN, ESQ., of Three -Springs, Huntingdon county, speaks most en couragingly of the influence of local option in Huntingdon, Clearfield and adjoining counties. Traveling through these counties almost con stantly, and associating largely with intelligent business men in the towns his opportunities for ascertaining the facts have been most am ple; while his intelligence, ability to observe correctly, and integrity as a man, render his opinions specially valuable. We are glad, therefore, to learn from him that local option is diminishing drinking and drunkenness, and causing many to support their families by honest labor who heretofore spent their earn ings for rum. The contrast with Fulton and adjoining license counties is most marked.— The fads are producing conviction on the minds of honest observers, and local option is growing stronger.—Temperance Vindicator. CHANGE OF BASE.—W. F. Cunning ham, csq., has changed his base of operations from Fohrth to 420 Penn street, where he has fitted up one , of the handsomest and cosiest offices in town, and is now prepared to supply our citizens with all kinds of coal, at as low rates as the market will admit. Go and see him, in his new quarters, and leave your or der for a few tons of black diamonds. THE reason why Henry & Co. sell more goods than all the other stores in town be sides, is this: They keep constantly on hand a very large stock of everything you may want, which they sell cheaper than any one else, and they don't charge one man five or ten per cent. more than another. Everybody, be he riAt or poor, man, woman or child, is treated alike at the Mammoth Store. WANTED, WANTED.—An experienced Patent Right man, to sell territory of an A. No. 1 selling Patent.

CASSVTLLE, May 9, 1874. Ma. EDITOR :-My name was attached to the Guss resolutions, and published in the Globe, without my knowledge or consent, as I never attached it to these or any other resolutions. I was asked to sign my name to a paper pur porting to be a petition asking for the reten tion of the school at Cassville, and with this belief I attached my name to it. Had I known the use they intended to make of it I assure you that they could never have obtained my name. Wltmem A. DEFOREST. RTINTJ FIMIK a VRT.IMW .7 -IP7IWT it MR. EDITOR :—Did you ever bear of such a ridiculous piece of old fogyism as the recent decree of the Burgess, that no person shall be allowed to visit the Cemetery on Sunday, be cause, forsooth, a few blackguards have been misbehaving there? Are there not several churches in town, where rowdies sometimes give offence? Shall they be closed on that account? Why not close up the town halls, the post office, the depot, and some stores that we could name, if bad conduct on the part of a few is a sufficient reason for excluding all? But the thing is too absurd to talk about. I would suggest that our ' , borough dads" pay a visit to some modern town where they ens learn how to manage the few rowdies without interfering with the rights and privileges of the many decent people. If this should stir up a hornet's nest, you wi.l hear again from YELLOW JACKET: Huntingdon, May 11, 1874. FROM TIMON JVALLEY.

AU matter pertaining to this department Should be addressed to P. O. Box 12, Iluntingdon. Sex and Education. A reply to Dr. E. H. Clarke's "Sex in Education." Edited by Mrs. Julia Ward Howe. 16 mo., cloth, $1.25. Roberts' Brothers, Boston. Dr. Clarke's book touched an epoch in the dis cussion of the question of the education of Amer ican girls; and from the amount of artillery that is directed araiest his position, by the"reformers" it is evident that it is one which it lo considered necessary to carry before any farther progress can reasonably be expected to be made. His book con tains many things set forth as truths, founded on a physiological basis, which are very unpalat,ble , when examised from the old-fashioned sentimen tal standpoint, and the vigorous manner in which his theories have teen assailed certainly gives them the advantage of him. The book before us is prino;pally a collection of the more stable criticisms on Dr. Clarke's book which appeared in various periodicals soon after its appearance ; and "contains the views of a number of thoughtful persons, chiefly women," among which are, besides the e - .7itor, Mrs. Horace Mann, Mrs. Caroline H. Dalt, Mrs. Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, and some half dozen ethers; also a review by C01..T. son. The book contains much that is interesting, and many valuable practical hints that it will be important to treasure after the excityment that has called forth this discussion has passed away. Tie Aldine, for May, opens with an expressive fall-page illustration, "The Dying Hound," rep resenting an old white-haired hunter taking leave of his faithful dog, and companion es he is about to leave for the "happy, hnnting•gronnds hereaf ter." The picture is singularly true to nature, and full of pathetic beauty. Other illustrations of this number represent crones on the coast of Florida, three in number; then we have "Hem lochs of Lake OtsegO," Tho Bashful Lover," "The New Capital at Hartford," sod (Alm., all deligh., ful specimens of beautiful, engravings.

NATURE'S GREAT REMEDY' FOR ALL :. • • THROAT AND LUNG DISEASES I It is the vital principle of the Pine Tree, ob tained by a peculiar process in the distillation of the tar, by which its highest medicinal properties are retained. Tar even in its crude state has been recommended by eminent physicians of every school. It is coefidently.offered to the afflicted for the following simple reasons: I. It cures--not by abruptly stopping the cough— but by dissolving the phlegm and assisting nature to throw off the unhealthy matter causing the ir ritation. In cases of seated Consumption it both prolongs and renders less burdensome the life of the afflicted sufferer. 2. Its healing principle acts upon. the irritated surface of the lunge, penetrating to each diseased part, relieving pain, and subduing inflammation. 3. It purifies and enriches the blood. Positively curing all humors, from thy common pimple or eruption to the severest cases of Scrota's.
