The Iluniingdon Journal J. A. NASH, HUNTINGDON, PENN'A - - DECEM BER 5, 1579 FRIDAY, - Circulation LARGER than any other Paper in the Juniata Valley. ME nuptials of Alfonso XII, King of Spain, and Arch Duchess Marie Christine, of Austria, were celebrated with great pomp and display at Madrid on Saturday last. GEN. JEFF. C. DAVIS, of the regular army, died at the Palmer House, Chicago, on Monday afternoon, of pneumonia. His remains were sent to Indianapolis under a military escort,. THE large paper warehouses of A. M. Collins, and of Magargee, Bro. it Co , on Decatur street, Philadelphia, were destroy ed by fire on Monday morning. The loss will not be less than $125,000. FOR want of space on the inside pages of the JOURNAL to publish the President's message we present it to our readers in a supplement, which enables us to give our usual variety of local and miscellaneous matter. A NUMBER of the descendants of Han nah and Betsy Baker, named Robinson, residing in Ottawa, Canada, lay claim to 1,500 acres of land in Pennsylvania, on which part of Philadelphia is built. They value their interest at $200,000,000. THE popular American Agriculturist, and the JOURNAL, "the handsomest and best paper in the county," one year for only $3.00. The money, in every case, to accompany the order. This is a rare chance. tf. THE, six days' bicycle race, between two Englishmen and two Am aricans,rode in Chi• cago, last week, resulted in a victory for the former, the result footing up 1,665 for the Englishmen and 1,658 for the Amer icans. In the start the Americans were allowed one hundred miles. IN the seventy-two hour walking con test which came off at Newark, N. J., last week, Hart, the Boston colored boy, who made such a good record in the walk for the O'Leary belt, in New York, a short time ago, carried off the first prize, which consisted of a gold watch valued at $3OO, and $5OO in gold. THE Democrats of Philadelphia held their Ward Conventions on Tuesday last, and in all of them the roughs ruled. In the Fifth Ward one man was shot dead, and in the Fourth Ward another was se verely wounded by a pistol shot. Billy McMullen lead the roughs and flourished hi 3 pistol openly. THE Altoona correspondent of the Phil adelphia Sunday Press says that our friend and fellow townsman, D. Caldwell, erg., prefers Joel Parker, of New Jersey, for President, and J. Simpson Africa, of Hun tingdon, for Vice President, as the Dem ocratic nominees in 1980. Here is an op portunity for another "boom." THE riot bill bribery cases, which were up before the Dauphin county Courts last week, are off for the present, the indict ments having been quashed on account of irregularity. The defendants renewed their bail for their appearance at the Jan- Lary term of C,)urt, at which time these cases will be disposed of. A MOST righteous sentence was inflicted, in a Philadelphia court, on Friday, upon a man named George De Groat, who had plead guilty to the betrayal of Lena Stulz, a young girl whom he bad promised to marry. He was sentenced to pay a fine of $5,000 and to undergo an imprisonment at labor and solitary confinement in the eastern penitentiary for the period of two years and eleven months. ANOTHER Atlantic cable, connecting Europe and America, is about ready for business, making the fifth line of tele graphic communication with the Old World. The one French and three English cables now in use are all under one direction, but the new one is bound by the terms of its charter to remain a competing line.— An immediate result of the completion is the reduction of tolls from 75 cents to 25 cents per word. THE CENSUS.—The State of Pennsyl vania has been divided into ten census districts and a supervisor for each will be appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. The seventh district em braces the counties of Adams, Centre, Clearfield, Clinton, Cumberland, Frank lin, Fulton, Huntingdon, Juniata, Mifflin, Perry, Snyder, Union and York, and is in area the largest district. It contained in 1870 over 411,000 inhabitants and at the coming census will have a population of nearly 500,000. A CHARTER was granted at the State Department, at Harrisburg, on Friday last, to the Lock haven and Clearfield railroad company, in Clinton, Centre and Clearfield counties. It will extend from a point on the Bald Eagle Valley railroad near the mouth of Beech Creek to a point on the line of the Tyrone and Clearfield railway at Philipsburg, Centre county, about 50 miles in length. The capital stock is $1,000,000, divided into 2,000 at $5O each. The president is George B. Roberts, of Philadelphia, the directors, Wistar Morris, W. Parker Shortridge, Edmund Smith, J. N. Dußurry, Strick land Kneass and John P. Green. THE Eastern penitentiary contains at the present time one thousand and sevent3- nine prisoners, and these are confined in the seven hundred and thirty cells of the institution. The Western prision is about equally crowded. These facts are strong arguments in favor of the necessity and speedy completion of the Middle peniten tiary. ;The Commission met in this place, on Tuesday of last week, and inspected the foundation walls, etc. Contrator Kelly is pushing the foundation as rapidly as possible, and work has not been suspended as reported by our exchanges. If the weather should remain favorable opera tions will be continued during the entire winter. THE committee of arrangements have announced the following programme for the entertainment of General Grant on the occasion of his visit to Philadelphia on the 16th inst A grand parade, par ticipated in by civie, military and other organiz•itiuiis ; in the evening a reception at the iesidenee of George W.

WITHIN four years, and that a period of depression at home and abroad, Amer ican mechanics have been pushing their way into all the important markets of Europe. First England complained of the intrusion—then Germany began to be jealous—and now a French statesman growls at the appearance of American com petitors in all the markets of that country. If the skilled mechanics can be persuaded to restore the Republican party to power in Congress, which it now looks very much as if they would, the protection will be as sured that will enable our workmen to se cure a trade for their products in all the profitable markets of the civilized world. —Harrisburg Telegraph. Something for the New Year. The world renowned success of Hostetter's Bitters, and their continued popularity for a quarter of a century as a stomachic, is scarcely more wonderful than the welcome that greets the annual appearance of Hostetter's Almanac. This valuable medical treatise is published by Hostetter & Smith, Pittsburgh, Pa., under their own immediate supervision, employing 80 hands in that department. Ten cylinder printing presses, 8 folding machines, 5 job presses, &c., are running about eleven mouths in the year on this work, and the issue of same for 1880 will not be less than ten mil lions, printed in English, German, French, Welsh, Norwegian, Swedish, Holland, Bohe mian and Spanish languages. Refer to a copy of it for valuable and interesting reading con cerning health, and numerous testimonials as to the efficacy of Hostetter's Bitter, amuse ment, varied information, astronomical cal culations and chronological items, &c., which can b• depended on for correctness.

Address LUTHER TUCKER tt SONS, Publishers, ALBANY, N. Y. The World forlBBo. Democrats everywhere should inform themselves carefully alike of the action of their party through out the country and of the movements of their Republican opponents. A failure to do this in 1876 contributed greatly to the loss ny the Dem ocracy of the fruits of the victory fairly won at the pulls. The year ISSO promises to be one of the most interesting and important years of this crowded and eventful century. It will witness a Presi dential election which may result in re-establish ing the government of this country on the prin ciples of its constitutional founders, or in perma nantly changing the relations of the States to the Federal power. No intelligent man can regard such an election with indifference. TH E WORLD is the only daily English newspaper published in the city of New York which upholds the doctrines of constitutional Democracy, will steadily repre sent the Democratic party in this great canvass. It will do this in no spirit of servile partnership ; but temperately and firmly. As a newspaper THE WORLD, being the organ of no man, no clique and nu interest, will present the fullest and the fairest picture it can make of each day's passing history iu the city, the State, the country and the world. It will aim hereafter, as heretofore, at accuracy first of all things in all that it publishes. No man, however humble, shall ever be permitted truly to complain that he has been unjustly dealt with in the columns of THE WORLD. No interest, however powerful, shall ever be permitted truly to boast that it can silence the fair criticism of THE WORLD. During the past year THE WORLD has seen its daily circulation trebled and its weekly circula tion pushed far beyond that of any other weekly newspaper in the country. This great increase has been won, as Tue WORLD believes, by truth fulness, enterprise, ceaseless activity in collecting news and unfaltering loyalty to itself and to its readers in dealing with the questions of the day. It is our hope and it will be our endeavor that THE WORLD'S record for 1880 may be written in the approbation and the support of many thous ands more of new readers in all parts of this In dissoluble Union of Indestructible States.
