Hotel accommoda tions Will be ample ODd cheap. 4t On Saturday evening our Democrats had a regular jollification hip-hip/i-o o-r-a y-r-a aw meeting, over the re sult of tho Maine election. It was a grand affair of its kind—tho meetiug we mean—and afforded an excellent oportunity for our boys to shout and yell like madcaps, and for Hon. W. K. Alexander, Wm. F. Smith, Jacob Eisenhuth, W. L. Musser, Thomas Keen and J. 11. Iteifsnyder, Esq., to make patriotic, eloquent and instruc tive speeches. A large torchlight pro cession, headed by the inimitable Mill heim Cornet Baud, (and don't you for get it) paraded through all out streets, halting in front of Alexander's build ing, where the meeting was organized, of which our natty little friend Sammy Faust was made president, who was well Hanked by an able corps of vice presidents and secretaries. And such was the jollification meet ing in Millheim over the victory in Maine—firing of anvils, torchlight procession, music, speeches and bonfir es. Just now much good was done or , how many votes gained for Hancock we do not pretend to say as the returns were not all in at this wiiting. —The ollicers are working hard to get eyery person to briug exhibits to the fair this year, and we may expect a grand success. A Schoolboy's Sad Death. Special Dispatch to THE TIMES. WII/LIAMSPORT, September 14. This afternoon a truant schoolboy, named William Neiman, aged about fourteen years, while attempting to jump upon a moving freight train at the Penii street crossing, missed his footing and fell under the wheels. Six freight cars passed over bis body, which was literally rut. to pieces. His right arm and leg wore severed, bis chest was crushed in and the back of bis head scalped. — MR. T. R. ST AM, our enterprising young merchant, sent us a present the other day which we hardly know how to take, because we can not see Into Russ's heart and Know his motives. 11* lie sent us that soap on general princi ples, Just out of kindness to help a fel low along, or that wo mav test Its qual ities and report our experience to the public, it is all right, but if lie wishes to intimate by bis present that we are unusually dirty and much in need of soap, then the sooner lie makes an apol ogy the bettor for his health. Concern ing the Ivory soap itself —that is the name—it is absolutely of the l>est. we ever used either as a toilet soap or for general use. Try it. Three large cakes for 25 cents. —Tho Granger Picnic, which came off on the summit of Nittany moun tain on Thursday of last week and which was favored by the fairest weather, was a very successful affair. The grounds were covered for a mile around with an immense crowd of people, all kinds of conveyances, huck ster stands, ice cream saloons, &c. At a low estimate there were about 3000 people present. After the arrival of four bands in the forenoon, the people wero called to the speakers' stand, where they were addressed in eloquent speeches by Hon. C. T. Alexander, John G. Love, Esq., and several other gentlemen. Then the picuicers distri buted themselves over the grounds, it being dinner time, all desirous of still ing their keen appetites by partaking of the abundant and delicious eatables with which tbey had stocked themselves. A ftei dinner tho bands gave some of their choicest music, followed by a few more addresses. The sun was fairly setting before the people thought of going home and parting from the splen did view which that point of the mou n tain affords, and leaving the pleasures of the day behind them. Everybody went away with the conviction, that it was the picnic of the season. —The picnic of the St. Pauls Sun day School, in I laities township, last Saturday, was about as enjoyablo an affair as we have attended for years. The attendance was good, but tho grounds were not overcrowded, and a fellow had a pretty fair chance to shake hands with most everybody and pass a few words with one's numerous friends and acquaintances. There seemed to be such a genuine feeling of good humor and sociality. Every one seemed to be in a pleased and happy mood. The singing by the school and performan ces at the organ were of a high order. Both show that carc and practice are exercised to a very proficient degree by this school. We were also much pleased with the manner in which the Farmers' Store Cornet Baud acted its part. This band has made great prog ress truly, during the short time they are organized, and we predict that the boys will yet make their maik as a band of the first grade. The baud was under the leadership of Mr. Linn, .of Milton, their efficient teacher. Addresses were delivered by Rev. John Tomlinson, Rev. Samuel Smith, B. O. Dttininger and Win. 11. Stoyer. They were well received and we trust that impressions for good have been made. Last on the programme came the dinner. This important and interesting subject was disposed of in a manner that did credit to all concern ed. We will not attempt a {description in detail of this point. We do not kuow just whose table had the most and best, but we do know that all had enough and lots to spare. We don't care ever to stand at a better furnished table in the woods than that of our friend M. S. Fiedler—to whom and family we hereby heartily tender all we have to give—a printer's warmest thanks, for their kindness to us and ours. The afternoon was spent in amuse ments by the younger, in social conver sation by the older part of the assem blage, and in smoking by a majority. Upon inquiry we learned that tho St. Pauls S. 8. is well attended and llour shing. But we heard one thing too, that is not praiseworthy—namely that this large Jand flourishing school does nothing for the missionary cause. Men and brethren this ought not so to be. You can easily raise twenty to thirty dollars a year, and thus discharge a duty yoii owe to the church and the world. Among agents and families, the great de mand now is for the new light running Com bination Sewing Machine, because It lias stood the test, and is better made, with more im provements. will last longer, and is much lower in price, (only $20,) than other machines, and having attained a merited popularity among the people for reliability, it is welcomed where cver it makes its appearance. It is built for strength and constant hard work, lias inter changeable working parts, manufactured of fine polished steel, and will run for years with out repairs; Is simple to learn, easy to manage, understood perfectly in an hour, and always ready to do every description of heavy or' fine family work at less cost, more easily, smoothly, and faster, and with less labor or trouble than any other machine at any price, ever did, or can do Tuckers, quitters, rutriers, hemmers binder s, Ac., free with each machine.

Tim CENTRE COUNTY PAIR.— We copy brother Meek's article on the coming county in last week's Watchman, entire, because we feel en tirely suti.stiod that he known exactly whereof ho speaks, while wo would be obliged to write pretty much at ran dom. It seems though, from the inter est manifested and tho extensive prep arations made that this year's fair will eclipse all former fairs over held in the county, and we hope that tho valleys may be well represented, both in agri cultural and manufactured products and visitors: TUK CENTRE COUNTY FA lit—The premium lht for (he Centre County I'alr was distributed lust week, and has no douht given sit l-niction, as the amounts to be awarded are more liberal than usual. The Fair will open on tile f>th of October, and, from all that wo have been able to learn, will be an entire success. Much Inter est seems to have been awakened In all purls of the county, which presupposes a large lIUIII'.HT of entries and an enticing and beautiful dis. play. The ladies, we understand, intend to l>e fully represented by all the useful and beauti ful articles that ladies manufacture, while the farmers, the stock-raisers, the mechanics, ma chinists, etc., etc., pro|>oso to contest for tho premiums in the liveliest manner. The Fair wiltcontiuuo for three days, and Thursday, the 7th, will as usual be the '"hi,; day" of the exhi bition. Kntlies will be received until and on the flrst day, and we hope every man, every woman, every boy and every girl who has any thing interesting to show will pet it on exhibi tion. Whoever lias the b >st, the biggest, the prettiest, the cleanest,—no matter w hat of,—or tlie most tasteful and Ingenious, will get pre miums, and whoever gets a premium will of course have a proud feather in his or her eap. So let all make up their minds to contribute something to make the Fair generally attract ive and interesting. In the line of amusements there will be many entertaining and laugluible performances and a variety of things to bo seen ami heard. In fact it Is the intention this year to make the amuse ment department if passible better than ever, and no doubt full particulars will be published of all that is going t<> transpire in that line prior to the beginning of the Fair. Let everybody conn to the Fair. It is the great holiday time of the year, and Is excellent recreation for everybody, and particularly for country people who have worked hard for months. Bring your wives and children; your brothers and sisters; your uncles and aunts; your grandfathers and grandmothers; your sweethearts and all the various girls that you have a hankerin' after. Fetch them all to the big snow in October and have a good time. Why, there is an extra lease of life In every oc casion of tills sort and all will returu homo hap pier for having indulged in the pleasure of it. Wnat matters a few quarters or half dollars? There will be quartets an3.
