Republican Meetings. t.olu, A meeting of the Republicans and all others who are willing to hear the truth and are opposed to paying the Rebel claims, will take place at THREE SPRINGS, ON SATURDAY EVENING, OCT. 28th and at SPRUCE CREEK, ON MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 30th. Both of these Meetings will be held at 7i P. Y. HON. THAD. M.

There will be a Republican meeting at ORBISONIA, ON SATURDAY EVENING, NOV. 4th, to be addressed by GEN. CHARLES A. ALBRIGHT and HON. LEMUEL TODD. Let there be a good turn out to all these meetings• FRANK W. STEWART, Chm'a. Rep. Co. Com. LOCAL AND PERSONAL. Brief Mention—Home-made and Stolen. Indian Summr. Wild turkeys are scarce. Candidates are circulating. Republicans are you ready? Will geese are on the wing. Candidates wish it was over. Will. Taylor is about again. Work unceasingly, Republicans. "Shinny" is coming to the fore. Vote the whole Republican ticket. Beginning to feel nervous—candidates. Drunks were numerous ou Saturday night 'Squire Murray '.did" the big show last week. Send us the local news of your neigh borhood. The Cornet boys made good music on Saturday night. The Democratic meeting, on Monday night, was a tame affair. Apples are selling in this market from twenty cents up to thirty, Only thirteen more days remain until the close of the Centennial. A lamp is wanted on the corner of Bth and Washington. Too dark. McPherson poured hot Eli o t into the Democracy on Saturday night. Potatoes are selling at 75 cents per bushel with a downward tendency. Maj. Nightwine has trapped twenty five muskrats daring the past week. Sale bills printed in the highest style of the art, at the JOURNAL Job Rooms. The receipts of the P. R. R. company last month are estimated at $4,000,000. There is considerable skylarking in the west end by a quartette of youngsters. Lou. Koch, of this place, is pleasantly loc ►tea at Lewistown. We wish him success. Gov. Hayes, the next President, passed east, in a special car, on Wednesday morninglast. After next week we will be able to give our usual amount and variety of reading matter. John Nightwine, of Henderson town ship, has two thousand bushels of apples for market. Candidates arc now engaged in inter viewing the "dear people" residing in the rural districts. The advertisements of some really Val uable real estate will be found on the first page of to-day's issue. Are you bilious ? Da you feel drowsy ? Have you the "blues." ? Take a dose of Dr. Bull's Vegetable Pills. The rain threw a damper over - the Democracy on Monday evening. But this only foreshowed what is to come. Township meetings are being held, this week, by both parties, and as the day of battle approaches the contest waxes warm. A little daughter of Alex. Denny, esq., fell off a fence, on Friday last, and broke one of her legs between the knee and ankle. John Barrick, of this place, one of the most successful hunters in the county, bagged three large, fat pheasants on Saturday. Invalids are thronging Dr. Hoffman's rooms and receiving treatment at his hands. Ills Electro-Therapeutic Bath is gruwing in favor. A large sale of personal property will take place at the residence of Daniel Thompson, three miles south ofMill Creek, on the 10th proximo. Three or four Democrats spent all of Monday scouring the town and imploring the "faithful" to turn out on the evening of that day. Quite a large, respectable and attentive audience was at the Court House on Saturday evening, to listen to the masterly speech of lion• 31'Phereon. The sale of Maj. 11. S. Wharton's Assign ees, on Friday last, reached over $3lOO. The sales were confined principally to his interest in West Huntingdon lots. If you want to dispose of your goods, advertise them. Tell the people what you have and the price asked, and our word for it, they will call to see you. Try it. We understand that a gentleman, a stranger in town, had his pocket picked of eight or nine dollars, in the neighborhood of the Union depot, on Saturday night. Weddings are becoming numerous.— Remember we can put up as neat invitations as are put up in Philadelphia, and at less than half the usual prices charged. Joe Kaine was full of enthusiasm—or something else—at the Democratic meeting on Monday night. In fact he was the only person who did "enthuse" worth a cent. It will be seen by an article copied from the Jersey City Daily Workman that the Plate Glass Works are conceded to Huntingdon. We hope the statement is well founded. Michael Brenneman, of Hartzlog Valley, had his leg broken on Thursday last while working at a cider mill. The fracture was reduced by Dr. D. P. Miller and the patient is doing well. D. W.-Woods, esq., of Lewistown, was assigned the honor of unveiling the Witherspoon statue, in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, on Friday last. Mr. Woods is a lineal descendant of Wither spoon. The store that don't advvrtis2 is always full of setters. Thu arcommonatif.n.l aro alw ; :ys good about such places. unprincii4 , l is not molested or made a irain by the crowning in of eustoincrs. Frank I. McCabe, forilicriy of this place, but now ticket agent for the P. It. It. at Lewistown, was married to Miss Mary McClean, daughter of Itcv. 0. 0. M'Clean, of the latter place , on the 17th inst. Stenger hammered away at the national debt and the taxes, but he failed to tell his hearers that it is all the result of the late Democratic Re bellion. The people know it, owever, and they will vote accordingly. The Grand Central Hotel, New York, "teaches the lesson of the times," by leading a re daction of rates. It offers the same accommoda tion as heretofore, at a reduction from $l.OO to $2.50 and $3.00 per day. Wild turkeys appear to be plenty in the neighborhood of Mt. Union. 11. Clay Marshall , esq., has "gobbled" several. F. A. Appleby, esq., also receives credit for one. They must be cheap down there. How much you pay? William King, csq., fur many years Constable of this borough, aged about 73 years, died on Saturday night last. The old residents are thus, one by one, departing from the theatre of their many trials. Peace to his ashes. The Tennesseans, or Slave Cabin Singers, are first-class vocalists, and draw good houses wherever they go. A crowded house greeted them' in this place, on Friday night, and everybody went away highly pleased with the entertainment. It is said that the idle employees of Altooaa will be furnished with work again in th e course of two or three weeks. Tho engines and cars aro so much run down as to require a general overhauling, while repairs to the track must be made forthwith. The usual number of blackguard boys were on hand, in the Opera House, on Friday night, and, as a matter of course, disturbed the audience by their bad behavior. Our word for it, some of them will get into trouble before many moons wax and wane. We see by our contemporaries that the parties interested in opposition to the Oil Pipe Lino are at work. The oil wen have acted very stupid in not interesting the press in their behalf long ago. It looks as if the other parties were profiting by their stupidity. It is said that the leaves of geraniums are an excellent application for cuts when the skin is rubbed off, and other wounds of the same kind. Ono or two leaves must be bruised and ap plied on linen to the part, and the wound will become cicatrized in a short time. The Carlisle Mirror of the 24th inst., in its summary of Sheriff Sales contains the follow ing: •'One hundred and eighty acres of land in West Pensborough township,having thereon erect ed a two-story brick house, frame bank barn, wagon shed, &c.; to be sold as the property of James Walls." There is an apple in the store of Jacob Mattern, In Warriorsmark, that measures fourteen and one half inches and weighs twenty-two ounces. This fine specimen was grown on the farm of Samuel Leahman, of Warriorsmark township, and is named—" None Such." Where are your big apples now r There is little time to work. Improve each shining hour and half the night. Our Polly puts its thus : "Pull off your coat, roll up your sleeves and work like a beaver, and when the election is over, instead of being rewarded with an office or even decent thanks, you can go to Jericho until you are wanted azAin." Oh, Polly ! Polly! There is no one willing to exhibit his patriotism by getting up another Centennial Ex cursion, at his own expense and take all the ap probrium which ignorant and ungrateful people feel disposed to heap upon him. The fun in this sort of public spiritedness is rather dearly bought. The railroad company is the only party that coines out whole. A one limbed soldier, of this place, wrote to the Surgeon General for an artificial limb and his reply exhibited the manner in which the late Democratic House economized. It run thus : " The appropriation for this purpose, for the pres ent fiscal year, being already exhausted, it will be impossible for this office to take any further action until Congress shall have appropriated the necessary funds." The righteous Democracy, how it goes for the soldiers. Frank llefright, esq , of this place, has contracted for the building of a lock on the Kanawha river,West Virginia, a few miles distant irom Charlestown. Ile has now about one hun dred and fifteea men employed, and expects, if the water does not interfere with his operations, to have the job completed in six months. lie in forms us that daring a late rise in that stream the water was twenty-five feet above his "coffer-dam," and that it wasn't a good time for high water either. It is quite a heavy job, and we wish that his profits may pan out well. We are sorry to learn of the serious, and perhaps fatal accident, that befel our highly esteemed old friend and patron, Richard Wills, esq., of Warriorsmark township, near Ironaville, on Tharsday of last week. We glean the follow ing particulars from the Local New, of Monday : "He was driving across the railroad track at that place in a buggy, when the vehicle was struck by the engine of the mail train, and broken to pieces. Ile was thrown to the ground with great violence , and his head cut in several places, and face bruised. We have not learned whether his injuries will prove fatal or not. lie is aged about seventy years, and is a highly esteemed citizen. His es cape from instant death is miraculous, as the en gine must have struck the buggy about the centre, the horse escaping uninjured. There is a curve in the road at that point, and it is probable be did not see the train approaching." The Harrisburg Patriot of the 23rd says : "A tramp, a jour printer, named Joseph D. Tulley, who, we are informed, i± known to the profession here and has on several occasions worked in Har risburg, met with a frightful death at Huntingdon, on Thursday last. lie had been hanging around Huntingdon for several weeks and on Thursday committed some offeLce which had put the police on his track. In his efforts to escape he attempted to board a moving freight train, but missed his footing and fell on the other track. A shifting engine came 41ong just in time to catch him, and he was ground to pieces, the engine and ten cars passing over him. His remains were scraped to gether, put in a box and buried." HOLLOWAY'S PILLS AND OINTMENT.---, Ile only is wise who seeks safety in precaution. Life is uncertain; thousands in the vigor of health to-day will never see to-morrow. The varying atmosphere, the raw piercing winds warn us of winter's approach, with its icy blasts and ruthless scourges: Coughs, Colds, Sore Throats, Asthma, Bronchitis, Pleurisy, Consumption, Rheumatism, Chilblains, Frosts Bites, ac. The wise and cau tions will immdiatcly have recourse to those pow erful invigorators, Holloway's Pills, which enable the lungs to resist the deleterious effects of the weather and fortify the constitution to withstand the rigors and inclemencies of winter. The Oint— ment is an infallible remedy for infatuation of the throat, and all disorders of the chest produced by violent colds; it also gives speedy relief to the or gans of respiration. I 9:, To PRESERVE ClDER.—Sulphate Of lime is now generally used to prevent continued fermentation in cider. The directions are as fol lows: "When the cider has fermented to suit the taste, add one-quarter ounce of Sulphate of Lime to each gallon, or ten ounces to each barrel-first mixing it with cider or water to the consistency of cream. Shake the barrel well, and allow it to settle four or five days. Draw off the clear cider carefully into another barrel, and bung it tightly. "The quality of the cider is further improved by a second drawing off, at the end of ten days or two weeks. "The strength or body of the cider may be in creased by adding ten or fifteen pounds of sugar, dissolved in a portion of the cider, to each barrel, as it is run from the press." Having made arrangements, any oue want ing the celebrated Burt Shoe, either in Men's, Women's, Misses', or Children's sizes, can have them on short uotice, by leaving their order at the American Boot and Shoe Store, 334 Railroad street.

On the bill, Primary School Nu. I, which is the lowest primary school, is taught by Miss Laura Black, and is composed of IUO little ones. In passing, it may be proper to say that in this room there can be comfortable seating fur 50 pupils. Miss Medic Shaver teaches Primary School No. composed of about sit pupils. In this room there is comfortable seating for about I'M pupils. !!Primary School No. 2, is taught by Miss Ilettie Afilebaugh, and numbers about WI pupils, all of whom can be comfortably seated. Miss Beckie Isenberg teaches Primary School No. 1, the highest grade of the primary depart ment. This School numbers about 55 pupils. The Intermediate School is taught by Mies Sa rah E. Gregory. In it are 45 pupils. Grammar School No. 2 is composed of 46 pupils and is taught by 0. S. Stewart. Geo. W. Sanderson teaches 33 pupils in Gram mar School No. 1, and what is termed the High School is composed of 30 pupils, taught by the Principal, J. Irvin White. The 63 pupils of these two schools aro seated in one room for study, the classes of the former reciting in an adjoining reci tation room. In West Huntingdon, Primary School No. 2, composed of 80 pupils, is taught by Miss Emma Isenberg. In this room there is seating for 72 pupils. Miss Mary Grim teaches Primary School No. 1, composed of 54 pupils, with seating for 52. The Intermediate School is taught by S. B. Taylor, and numbers 46 pupils. U. Sheehy teaches the Crammer School, composed of 54 pupils at present, and besides has general supervision of all the schools in West Huntingdon. The Colored School, composed of about 25 pu. pits, is in charge of Miss Kau McCoy, and is do. ing well. A comparison of the number of pupils in sever al of the primary schools, with the seating capacity of the rooms, will disclose the fact that more room is very much needed. A comparison of the old house with school buildings in other towns, no better, no older, nu more prosperous or flourishing than Huntingdon, will at least suggest the idea that a new school house would look well, and be creditable to a town that boasts a Centennial his tory. hard times and heavy taxes may be a very plausible excuse for overcrowding our children in small, dark rooms, and endangering their health and their lives, but it is certainly the intention of our Common School Law that the people shall provide for the education of theirchildren whether taxes are heavy or light.

Claflin's hand-sewed Boots and Shoes, and almost every other kind of Boots and Shoes can be found at the American Boot and Shoe Store, 334 Railroad street, lower than at any other place in town or county. All goods warranted. oct27-2t PLATE GLASS.—The manufacture of this very us,..fal article has been chiefly carried on by foreigners. The French being the leading op erators. This trade is now to become an American institution. A number of capitalists from France have been for some time examining material and sites for the location of works, for the manufacture of plate glass. After looking at many places, they concluded to locate at Iluntingdon, Pa. This is certainly a very wise selection, fur surrounded as it is with inssh:u►stable quantities of the finest glass sand in the world, and at the very door of the bituminous coal field, glass could be made at a larger profit than it could be anywhere in Amer ica. For the manufacture of either glass or iron ware no better site could be found—and it is some what surprising thilt this point has been overlook ed so long. The building of such vast works as we learn it is proposed to erect, will give employ ment to a large number of workmen, and will make Huntingdon one of the greatest glass manu facturing centres of the nation.— The .lermey City (.V. J.) Daily Workman, Oct. ISth. We presume by "Iluntingdon" is meant in this region somewhere. It will depend very much upon the people here, particularly owners of land, water, Ac., whether this particular locality will be se lected. Mr. Gobert said they would only consider a written offer of land, water Ac., and no other.— ED. JOURNAL. Geo. Shafer has just received another large stock of Ladies', Misses' and children's Gaiters, Boots and Shoes, buttoned, laced, and side laced, of the very best quality. He will sell them at the very lowest prices. Also, a large stuck of Men's and Boys' Boots and Shoe.s, of the beat quality and at the lowest prices. Give him a call. [oct2o-2t THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN DECEIVED by the incompetent empiries that have attempted to enlighten the world upon the delicate matters relating to the generative organs should resort to the works published by the "Peabody Medical In stitute," Boston, as the source of true information• Those who are suffering as though without hope from the errors of youth—those whose vitality has been impaired by exposures or by intense appli cation to business, should not fail to peruse "The Science of Life, or Self-Preservation." The fe male portion of the community should make them selves familiar with the "Sexual Physology of Woman and Her Diseases•" Those afflicted with nervous debility in any form should read the work on "Diseases of the Nerves and Nervous Maladies." These works, written by the Chief Consulting Phy • sician of the "Peabody Institute," Boston, have attained an enormous circulation, and done in calculable good, in apprecation of which the Na tional Medical Association have just presented the author with one of the largest, most costly and elaborate Gold Medals ever published. See ad vertisent in another column. To Shake, or not to Shake ? Aye, that is the question. Is it better to quiver from head to foot in the paroxysms of fever and ague, or to banish the atrocious disease by a course of that standard antifebrile remedy, Bostetter's Bitters. There cannot be much doubt as to the response of the malaria-stricken to this inquiry. From every locality on this continent whose in habitants are tormented with the shivering plague comes an increasing demand for the only genuine preventive and eradicant of malaria provided by science. The denizens of fever and ague districts well know how utterly inadequate to do more than give a brief respite are the so-called remedies of the faculty. Quiniee, arsenic, bismuth—what are these but poisonous palliatives, which cease after a time to produce any beneficial effect whatever, and if persisted in wreak irreparable mischief upon the s) stem ? Everywhere they are being abandoned by istelligcnt persons, and that gen uine vegetable specific fir intermittent and re mittent disease, Hostetter's Bitt,rs, substituted in their place. Oct. 7-Im.

LIPPINCOTT'S MAGAZlNE.—Agricult ure and Horticulture firm the subject of the .Centennial article in Lippincotis Mag,azino for November, and are treated with the fullness and ability that have character ized the whole series. Some of the finest displays in both sections are well represented in the engra, tugs. Another illustrated paper is the first of two. entitled "Walks and Visits in Woodsworth's Country," by Ellis Fantail, friend of the poet and his family. It ,ives not only good descriptions of the lovely "Lake Region," but many in teresting anecdotes and personal rentiots,,,i, Ilart writes on "Higher Education" with the luithority that belongs to his intimate study of the subject, and pre sents some novel views. The Wagner Festival is discussed in a short, readable paper; Lady Barker sends another of her South African Letters, and Lucy 11. Hooper describes the "Curiosities of the Parisan Post Office." In the way of fiction we have the beginning of Heirge Macdonatirs new serial, "The Marquis of ',odic," Widril opens with some striking situations, and will be welcomed by all the author's admirers; a further installment of "Love in Idle ness," and a pathetic and well-constructed story from the German, "The Pendulum of Fortune." In the "Monthly Gossip" the most noticeable paper is an unpublished story of Lord Byron and Mary Chuworth. • Scribner forNovemberbegins the thirteenth volume of that magazine and opens with a fully illustrated art ic'e on Hartford, by Mr. Charles H. Clark, of the "Hartford Courant," under the title of "The Charter Oak City." Here are depicted Col.

In this number Cherien Iternard's articles on Co-operation in Greet Britain are be gun—with a paper on "A Scotish Loaf Factory."

PETERSON'S MAGAZINE for November is on our table, ahead of all others. It is an unusually good number, even for this first-class lady's book. The principal Steel Plate, "Iss, - *Cexce.," is from an original picture by that world famous artist, Sir Joshua Reynolds. A prominent feature of this Magazine is its copyright Novelettes, two of which appear in this number, "Miss Crespigny's Absurd Flirta tion," by Fanny Iludgeon Burnett, and "The Days of Sev enty-Six," by Mrs. Ann S. Stephens, both very far euper ior to the continued stories to be found in magazines gen erally. But, as a contemporary says, the stories, the _fash ions, the patterns, in short, ererylhing in "Peterson" is the best of its kind. The.price of this Magazine, too, is anoth er thing in its favor. It is but TWO DOLLARS A YEAR. The Prospectus for 1877 Is published with thin number, and we find that prices to Clubs are astonishingly low, viz.: three copieefor 114.80, with a superb engraving (t 7 inches by 20), Suiriturezz or COANWALLHO to the person getting up the club; or six copies for 09.C.0. and a copy of the Magazine for 1.877 as a premium to the person getting up the club; or seven copies for $ll.OO, and both au extra copy and the premium engraving to the person getting up the club.

OWENS.--On Sabbath evening, the Sth inst., at the Parsonage, Rev. J. W. Owens, of the M. E. Church, pastor of Enisville charge, died very suddenly of rheumatism of the heart. His physical organism was of a delicate mould, his mental capacity and power were of the high est order. Though a man of affliction and acquaint ed with sufferings most intense, he persisted in the proclamation of the truth and faithfully filled his appointments, unless entirely prostrated. the pulpit ho was eminently practical, free and lucid in style, very apt in illustration, and of true brilliant in rhetoric. Being wholly absorbed in his work, ho brought forth all the powers of his being, latent or reserved, and with a worthy en thusiasm led forward the flock of Christ, and stoutly warned the ungodly. He enjoyed much, was spiritually minded, fer vent in piety, conscientious in ail things, submis sive in suffering, and remarkably zealous in labors. Admonished of sudden death, he lived in readi ness to meet it. The messenger came in a mo ment that brought surprise to his family and [ .),!;20euw-61n, 79,440 LITERATURE Zhe guthr.
