BOUMCW icca>MXT.-Oa Monday week we were made
iheinrauntarr Witaoas of a shocking accident, which de
•m»T*d ah out enjoyment of the festivities of the day.-A.
girt, agei about three years, darter of Mr. Michael
L,. Vs* crossing the Eadroad at the; Pasawger Statton,
ud when on the outside track near the awltch, sh> at-
MBpted to nm put a treightlocoinotivc, which was back
tagst the time. Iho locomotive struck her before she

UoMtseb of the tender running ajiw hw foot, smash

Birrt *G rod, and was attended by Dr, Good. Amputation
ns d-d*-* by the Doctor to be naoeasar? to aave the
child’s life; but the mother would not consent to tho ope.
ntiun being performed. She' lingered until • Wednesday
ercnlng#>when destb put an s»t> her auflerings. It la
due the t"e<"” r to state thatTtho accident was beyond his
power to prersat-the chll|| ; b«ing ao smtll, and at the.
rear of tbs tender, he could fort acober. We hope this sad
sflslr will prorc a warning to oaf citlcens, to keep their
cimdron away from tho Bailroad entirely.
p.g. since the above was placed in type,' Coroner Funk
appeared and held an inquest on the body -of the child.—
Xhasridence adduced corroborated the above account, and
the jury returned a verdict to the effect that the child come
to its death by being “accidentally run over by a locomo
tire” at tbo time and place mentioned. t
Ini Loqak Hobsx.—We are pleased ; to bbserVo this ex
cellent and Justly popular house recommended totheciti
tfns of Philadelphia and PitUbnrg,'through the columns
of the pries of those cities, by personas who have enjoyed
the hospitality of tlie gentlemanly; proprietors, Messrs.
Hiller 4 Howe, and experienced the refreshing influence of
our pure mountain water and cool Allegheny breezes. ; No
more pleasant or healthful retreat can be found than'the
began House, by those seeking to escape the infection and
hat Incident to burge. cities, during the summer months.—
Those who have once visited oar spent a season at the Lo
gan House will be sure to return again. Wo imagine that
If tho pleasure and health seekers of the cities above men
tioned, but knew onohaif tho profit and benefit of a
Musm spent at. (bis mountain retreat. tio Logan House,
capacious as it is, would bo filled to overflowing in less
than one weeki Wo hope and expect tosoc the houSo filled
with visitors tils season.
For tbs benefit of the citizens otPltUburg who may de
sire to spend- a few weeks in'this place, the Superinten
dent of Penn’a Railroad has granted the issuing of £xcnr
den Tickets! -Many persons will no doubt avail themselves
of this reduction- of fore, and bring their fomilics with
them.
tUansoNZ r**MMT.—Printers ore generally styled
“lucky fellows,” if not in pocketing dimes, at least in the
receipt of presents. We were lucky in the latter way, .ftt
the celebration on the fith instant. While reclining against
a tree, conversing with a Mend, a lady approached us,
testing a mammoth cake, beautifully teed over with dif
ferent colored sugars, which she'requested us to accept
Printers never refuse presents, theferorowe accepted in as
graccfnl a manner as pur ecstasy' would admit.! The cake
via a present from Mrs. John Levan to the editors of the
Tribune. It was duty conveyed tb.the homes of tho editors
(in pieces of course) and found to excel In the inner compo
sition the apppirnnce of the outside. The domjr of the
cake has the thanks of the editors and their better-halves,
for her kind remembrance, and we hope; she may long bo
spared to minister to the comfort of her largo Circle of:
children and friends, aiid perform many more acts of gen
erosity lor which she is Justly noted.
Pksoxil.—A day or two ago, we peld the Masterßuilder

From tlie above It wDI be seen that the resident popula
tion of Altoona proper, is but a -fraction less than 4,000.
ihc floating population we believe would more than make
up the fraction at any time, while the suburbs north and.
south of the town, which ore not included in this-estlmatc,
would swell the population to at least 6,000. This may be
considered doing pretty well fur a town not yet eight years
old. Notwithstanding the pressure of the times, building
goes on as rapidly as ever, and should it continue br eight
years to come, of which wo have no doubt, we shall be ap
plying for a city cltarUo before some of our neighbors, who.
'boost an older name and more advantages.

J : 1 Sphccb Gagne, June Bth, 1858. I
Uessm. McCntW4.Dxaas—-Trusting that ;a few linea
from the pen of one whose peregrinations have enabled him
oflafe to take a pretty-general survey of Little Bail: mid
several adjoining counties, wiQbe acceptable to your cob
limn*, I will venture toteUyonoftho pleasure and satis
fkethm I enJoymLdnring a brief eqjoam in your town.—
Altoona is undoubtedly the most-populous .town in the
county, and I must confess, the most interesting place I
have visited for some considerable time. Notwithstanding
the “pressureof the tlnies,”.the spirit of enterprise and
.Improvement seems to be undaunted, and your young vil-
lage Is stoadily aud rapidly growing, apd will ho doubt
eventually become a very respectable dty; for-it fans in its
fovor all the advantages that are required to' make it such.
In troth, Altoona is now very much paore qity-like than
pome placae that boast a city title; and oven more so than
some older towns that make greater pretensions to honora
ble importance. Bat least I should he charged with nn
charitabloness for the follies of early indiscretion, or disre
spect for venerable dlgnity, I will here assure yon and
your readers that I am not prompted by the base design of
flattery; but I sincerely hope that my humble epistle wfll
give your readets in other places a more Just idea of wtmt
Altoona now is, and what its future prospects are. After
arriving at the Logan Honso, (which by the way is one of
the beet hotels In the State,) and looking about town some
little on Saturday afternoon, I found many of yoar spirited
ctUsemfactlvely engaged in preparing for tho Celebration
of the 63d Anniversary of American Independence. On
being infonned of the extensive and liberal arrangements
that were being made for the occasion, I was Induced to
remain, to participate In cohunemorating the glorious deeds
that purchased for ns the boon of freedom. I was. much
pleased to learn that the sth had been fixed upon for the
celebration of the day that ia sacred to the interests of every
true American, and which this year has fallen upon the
Sabbath, The latter .having been first instituted, it was
but proper that it should be first remembered and kept
holy. Where celebrations were hold von Saturday the peo
ple most have been peculiarly unfitted for- a projMir obser
vance of the Lord’s Day.
1 was truly gratified to find the Sabbath to religiously
kept in Altooila, where one would expect to find more or
less excitement at ail times. In a,town where the popula
tion is so miscellaneous, as yours necessarily must be, I
would have regorded it aa a very moral placed If considera
ble rowdyism, KibinUh-brcakhig and loafing about the
corners had bepn manifested; but to find it exempt from
everj thing of tho kind was mow than I expected. Many
older towns that I have visited ore certainly far behind
yonrsin their moral and religions relations. I would not
forget the respect.oat Is dne to old age, but think it is tint
. Just to soy that may Very-safely be taken; as a
model by some townt that should have learned a great
deal ftom experience by this time, and ought to bo much
bettor by practice than, they know, they are*
llaving visited two of yonr churches on Sabbath, I feel
free to say that .the opinion already expressed of your
moral position is trnthfdl, efid I am satisfied that yonr
- pulpits are filled hymen who arc well qualified to sustain
your religious inforeats.
On Monday morning J repaired to the celebration ground
with the large concourse that wended its way thither. X
did expect to see many people, but the number so tor ex
ceeded my expectations that r gazed In oatonishment as
they gathered there. As you will no .doubt tovor your
readers with some account of the.proceedings of the day, I
merely say to them, that of the many celebrations I have
attended, I never vnu present at one where the exercises
were conducted in a mors harmonious and patriotic man
ner. The proceedings were truly Interesting, and highly
creditable in every particular. The plenteous provision
furnished by the ladies, did honor to the occasion as well as
to themselves. The amusements iff the afternoon passed off
most delightfully—-the ample arrangements afforded oppor
tunities XorenJoymont that has not often bepn met withj
and I doubt whetlieranysltnilaroccaskm in the county
has eve* beep fevered with.so largo an assemblage. I met
with qidte alnnmbor of persons from Huntingdon and Bed
.lord counties, and a few even -from. HoUidayshnrg, an old
village away aetces the country, so tor from you that even
the Editors who are ever teady to furnish all the nows of
the country to their reader*—especially dogfights, mad all
such important incidents'that may oncoin a while occur in
Altoona—did not get to hegr a.word about your celebration.
At least I could find no ac&nnt of it in any of thclrpapers,
published several days afterwards,and was muchdiaap
pointed,as 1 wished,wbeti there the other da/, to send
severs) papers to some friends, to let them know that there
. was at.least one place In Blair county where the Annlvcr
.sary of our National Liberty was celebrated in a becoming
and patriotic manner—and that too without the exercises
of the day boing interspersed with “the firing of Squibs,”
“the fizzing of spit devils,” “the odorous perfttme of vU
lalnons salt peter,” “or continued vociferous cheen and
laughter," or being followed by “penny conectlotis” “ora
powerful strong smell of burnt rags,” or any other ocritr,.
recce “tliat resulted in bloody noses,” “scratched toccsjff;
“blackened eyes,” “torn coats, Ac, Ac.”—no“fantastical”
demonstrations to bnriesnue and desecrate a day that should
ever be kept sacred by all who appreciate the rights and:
privileges of American citizens. Such proceedmgs did
blend with tho exercises at a celebration in an old village
tor off-in tho country, if we ma/believe their own records';
and they but serve to verify tho truth of tho adage that
“old habits arc hard to ibo broken off.”; But what more
could be expected of those who have grown old In' sin and
folly.
Lest I should bo charged with the crime of “disrespect
for old ago,” I will not tell yon any tiling more than has
been revealed by tho High Priests In the Sonhedriun of tho
old village that is so far from yonr youthful town. I am
sorry that tho old village is an unfortunate victim to bad
habit* lovff established[;• bnt am glad to find that tho Chief
Scribes are honest enough to record tho fall proceedings of
their transactions. But if they could have somo means of
obtaining the news from Altoona, and would give them
deserving notice, they would have something more respect
able for the entertainment of their readers than accounts
of their childish manner of celebrating tho memorable 4th
by tho “burning of squibs,” “scratching effaces,” “black
ing each other’s eyes, and tearing coats, Ac, Ac.”
But lest I should bo charged with “ a want of duo respect
for old age,” I will change the subject by merely referring
to a slight uneasiness, wliich I am informed has taken
deep root in the hearts of the natives of tho old vlllago sb
far off In tho country, in regard to somo fears they enter
. tain of the number of their population, and other trifling
interest, being exceeded by your town at some future time
—perhaps in, a week or two, for ought they know. Their
envious disposition reminds mo very much of an old maid’s
jealousy of her pretty ymno sister who Is just verging into
womanhood, with a fair prospect of monopolizing the at
tention of admirers. Bat lest I should bo blamed for “a
want of due respect for old age,” I will quit tho subject by
saying that so fur as I could learn there-was not an intoxi
cated man seen in your' town on celebration day; and tho
evening passed off without any disorderly conduct what
ever, except some slight manifestations of boisterousness by
' the “dntnkables” who took the night train for an old vil
lage some distance in tho country. Bat lest 1 should bo
censored for “a want of due respect for old age,” I will
merely odd that on arriving in said aged village on Tues
day, (when on my way to this place via Williamsburg and
Yellow Springs) my attention was attracted by some indi
viduals wending a tortneras way through some of the prin
cipal streets of tho old village, whose red —perhaps I should
say “ bloody nosea”—“ scratched faces,” “ blackened eyes”
and “torn coats,” still glowed with the /h t-llici-ista of tho
previous day. To tell the truth, I saw more intoxicated
men there, within three hourq, than 1 have In all tho other
' villages that I have visited during the last three months.
But lest I should bo suspected for not luring “a due re
spect for old age.” I will hereby add that I left tho old vil
lage that saino day, and am on my way to a still older town
<-4he “ancient borough"—where I‘wilt tarry a few days.
Yours truly, ITINERANT.
Ok tHKIUn, July «, 1868.
Vana. ¥wjroa«>-Belngaomewhatof a patriotic tem
pßramentanddoairous of enjoyingmyself at times, I ac
cepted aalnriUtlon to tbs celebration of the Evangelical
Lutheran Sabbath School at LeWistown, Jfc, on Saturday,
M Inst. I arrived there at six in the morning of that day,
and took brcaktafit at the « National Hotel,” kept by Sir.
JRoaa, who, by the way, is a wholc-sonlod landlord.
Wo (for there were some ladies and gentlemen along,
and a merry crowd it was) made ourselves as comfortable
as the urate of the thermometer would permit. One of our
party suggested that we send for a minister, and, getting
him there with the expectation of marrying a couple, we
could perhaps sec a picturejof mortification, when ho Would
find that we didn’t need him. So a little negro boy was
sent after the Rev. . The little chap went and told
the Reverend gentleman to ooate down to the “National,”
as a gentleman and lady wished to see him, apd.he saM,
“I tinkdey want to git married.” The preacher went into
the house and said to his lady; “Give mo my Jiat—l must
go down town to marry a couple; are these clothw good
enough for the occasion ?” His lady told him they were;
and down to the hotel he came on a trot, and as I saw him
coming, 1. Imagined 1 saw five dollar bills during through
Us brain. TJjKm perceiving us, who we were and what we
wanted; he fotgned no disappointment, but - the palpable
truth was tooi plainly written upon his countenance. We
then oonclndedto puton sober airs and go np to
where thoohjldrenwereformlnglnto ranks preparatory
to their, marching to the grove. I was surprised—l was
completely astonished to aeo the large crowd of children
there. ■

When theyhad formed In ranks, i to* the trouble to

were there delivered—one by a lawyer, a resident of the
town, another by Master Rnpp, a scholar of the school that
was celebrating the day. Each class had provided a din

at some queer toasts, (some.l had laughed at before)—ate a
hearty dinner with some kind friends, saw the display of
fire-works and the “sights” in general, and I am now on

A party:qf about 400 Mormons, men, women and chil
dren, pjiased through camp to-day on their way to the
States? They were In a very destitute condition, but pock
eted considerable of the gentiles extra dimes by selling oil
the provisions they could possibly spare. I saw them sel
ling fowls at $6.00 per pair. They had all kinds of vehi
cles, from an ox-wagon down to a hand cart.
A train of 30 wagons arrived in camp to-day, loaded with
provisions.- They arrived Just in the niche of time, for the
fact of it is, the Commissary department heal been run ra-
ther low fyr a joke. Col. Hoffman is on Green River, 35
milts tram Hus place, anil will be up in four days, with re
inforcements and provisioris. Capt. Marcy was at the Pa*

Two companies of the '6th Infantry arrived in camp on

A company States teamsters, whose time had
expired pit the Ist left for the States yesterday, Gon.
Johnson giving them transportation and allowing each man
two months, extra pay. They number about 800 men.
Judging from the manner in which they spoke of Utah,
PlaluB ; XJpcloSam, etc, I don’t think they will ever enter
said Uncle’s employ again, for the purpose of crossing the
plains and. seeing the '‘elephant”
It IS now warm and pleasant, but we don’t intend to go
into estates about it, for we know not of to-morrow what
it may bang forth—perhaps snow and perhaps not.

the followers of the immortal Joe Smith may vamoose the

On yesterday morning wo wero favored with a

The health of the command os a general thing, has been
and is yet very good, bnl some few cases of the ever-to-be
dreaded (fever and ager) ore now not more than a thous
