Sher- I V mardernlnMat reoeiTedalet- I one of his partnerapnbusmess, written I City,Eaqsas, detailing the particu- I wjg 0 f the caoc. It appwuo that Shermertmd I two other men had entered Into partnership in I a trading expedition, or rather establishing tra- I dine points to different parts of Kansas and No- I fcnwicaTemtorie.s They had established one, at I apu jnt'not mentioned, which they *flerw*ifffl i gold out rt a considerable advance on wha( they I hid paid fordt. In different ways thw hadac- I jumdated considerable money. Besides this it I was known ttoft Shenner bad money of his own I jfhichhad not been invested. During the lat- I ter part of the summer the traders had a man I named Stewarfcemployed to help them makehay I jnd perform other labor, with whom Shenner I did not agree very well, and, a short time previ* I oos to the murder, had reprimanded pretty se- I rerciy. a on the night of the murder, September 20tb, Stewart appeared to bo remarkably friend ly towards Shermer. They were encamped In a ravine,\on the Little Blue, in Nebraska, and the night being Varm, Shermer said the mos quitoes troubled him, whereupon he took up his blanket and and went up on a bili near by and laid down/ Shortly afterwards Stewart ' conipUdned of the beat and mosquitoes and took his blanket and followed. Shermer. Nothing 1 more was known about them until the next I morning, when one of the-men went to call I bbermer. After calling him several times and I gating no answer, be went up to him and found I him dead, one aide of his head having been I nnsshed with a club or some heavy instrument. I on calling Stewart, he wtfs’ no where to be I found. On examination It was found that at I least a part of his money, a gold watch, a gold I pen and case, and a breastpin with ami nature I therein, had been carried off. Some sixty doL I lars were found in his watohrfob and about one | dollar in change In his pockets. Suspicion at I once fastened upon Stewart, and after burying the remains of Shermer os decently as the Cir cumstances of thc case would admit, they star ted in pursuit of him- After considerable* diffi cuity-, they finally came up with him abbot fifty miles from the scene of the mnrder; He had on his person tke gold watch, pen and. case and minature belonging to Shermer.' They imme- I diilely convoyed him to Wyandott City, where I li« is iiow in jjdl awaiting his tnal. How nmch money he took fromjum is not kpown. Shermer was .known to many persons, both n this place and Hollidaysbnrg. „JHe worked ir‘his office for a considerable length of time niter it was first started. At the time the Mex ican war broke out, he enlisted, as a regular, and cerved though the whple of that war, first under ToyloV, and then under Scbtt, from the taking of Vera Cruz to the City of Mexico. IVhen he,first spoke of emigrating to Eahsas, k? tried -to, dissuade him from going, remark ing that ha would be killed by some of the out laws in that par tof the country. Although we had little idea that what we said would bo veri fied. hsving spoken it in jest, yet alas! in his i case, it has prpved bat too trae. Many men, we believe, who are known, to have money about them, are murdered in the same manner thathe has been, but nothing more is known or heard about them by friends or foes. bEOAD.—ty, our readers unpUtiati #f 'e have inst J.jj. liut the winfe ‘Hy, and ft, r ondjano* tly expeetid A perchance, have been unable to procure Mother situation during the winter, merely for email pittance, which L more J>««t of Jds em f oyer* has take-off him.

Entirely different is ourmc tive—iwe wished to make you readit. What we call a murderer is a fluid, campbene, pine oil, or any other kind of a lamp, in wMeh explosive fluids Ore burned. Well, . you may say, this is rathera harsh term to apply to such an indis pensable article as a lamp. Harsh as it may •ppeav, it is nevertheless appropriate. \A man who takes tire life: of his fellow-man is balled a murderer ;--and the same tern may he applied to any instrument, proverbial for. its destruc tion of human life. Statistics show that the number of persons killed (or murdered) jand maimed by the explosion, upsetting or careless use. of lamps in which explosive fluids were burned, is equal, if not greater, (and we think it muoh greater) -than the number murdered by fellow-men. Are we not correot, thou, in cal ling such lumps,-murderers ? But, say you, they are hot dangerous when properly attend ed to. We admit.that .point, but how do you know that they are properly. attended to T No better, we presume, than yon - know that there is an assassin larking in some dark alley or un der your bed, waiting to spring upon yon. The most careful persons have been victims to this treacherous laminating substance, and children, without knowing their danger,, have been hur ried, off this stage of action, maimed or disfig ured thereby. But where is the remedy ? you ask. Just at hand, wo reply. Got the Lunar Oil Lamps and Lunar Oil, for sale by John Shoemaker, or the Carbon Oil Lamps and Car bon Oil, for sale by Geo. W. Kessler. They are os handsome and cheap as the old lamps, and the oil is much cheaper, besides the light being equal, if not superior, to that emitted by (he best of the explosive fluid lamps. The great disideratum, however, to be Warned, is that no danger from explosion need be apprehended. Neither of the oils recommended can be ignited in the lamps or in any vessel. They will not burn except when drawn through a lighted wick. Here then is a remedy whereby that murderer may be banished from your house. It remains for you to say whether you will avail yourselves of it. Mvetebious Affaibs. —We aroinot prone to speculate in the marvelous, or indulge in dis quisitions on mysterious affairs, to aid in pictu ring which the imagination must be largely drawn upon, but we can not at this time forego the remark, that Altoona and vicinity will soon enjoy a reputation by no -means enviable, in the number of mysterious accidents which occur therein. We have never yet been sat isfied that the young man named Boush, who was run over by the Fast Lino, a short distance below this place, lost fall, was not murdered previous to being placed onthetraeje. He was known to have money about his person, none of which could be found .after the accident. He was not intoxicated (at least witnesses,so tes tified) when he left town in the evening, at eight o’clock, or later, and yet before ten o'clock, it is alleged, he was so much under the influence qf liquor, that he could not get out of the way. of a locomotive. Hossibly thiaallegation may be correct, but we think it hardly probable. The case of the man found in the yard in this place, two weeks since, is equally as mysterious to qtur mind, although we incline to the opinion that he was foully murdered. Amanin his circumstances, m route for a distant Country, as he evidently was, .would bo likely to have more than $39 on Ins person, and yet that wassail that could be found. A fall’from the cars in attempting to. get upon them, would not bo like ly to produce a wound each as he received, and certainly would have occasioned more than one. ■We believe in the odage that “murdenvill out,” and we hope tosee ( it verified in theabove cases, if it really be that they were jnitrdcred, although at this time their appears tft'be.noclueby which this mystery may be solved. Thanksgiving Pat.—By .reference ’to the Proclamation of Gov. Packer, which will be another part of to -day’s paper, it will be seen that, he has pointed Thursday, the eighteenth day of November'.as Thanksgiving Day, instead of the 25th,; which- has usually been the day heretofore. Wearenot cognizant of the reason why the Governor, has appointed the.dayaweek in advance of the usual time, this year, unless it was that he is anxious for a good mess of turkey, and can’t wait. How it will be about onr turkey we can’t say, but pre same it makes little difference whether the eighteenth or twenty-fifth be observed as Thanks giving, so far as that is concerned. We have never, as yet, - been lucky i enough to sedate a turkey for Thanksgiving, although we hiave al ways been remembered about the Hollidays.— Apropros, we might state, that shooldi any'of onr iHends have an odd fowl or two abput their premises, we have the women who know how to serve'.them up,- are epicureans enoughtoen joy when they us set before ns, and can andyill .thank' the donor as heartily as any otherpeggarscould do. j.' \ ' " ’ Oim Nexohbqe.—By reference to oar adver tising columns, oar readers will find the card of oar next door neighbor, L.

James speaks in the highest terms of praise towards Capt. Barney, of the American Hotel in Holli daysburg, .and of all connected that first class house. He says he will ever remember the very kjnd treatment and attention given him while suffering with his- wduada.

Remember, also, that it will be one of the fi nest.exhibitions we have ever had in tips place. Remember that tiro proceeds of the Bazaar are to be applied to a worthy object, that of liqui dating the debt incured in erecting a parsonage for the worthy pastor of |St. John’s Church, (Catholic.) Remember, young men, that there will be handsomevyonpg ladies in attendance to wait upon you. Remember, young ladies, that this will be the place to- visit, as all the hand some young men in town will be there. And be it Remembered that Excursion Tickets will be issued from Johnstown, Hollidaysburg, Hunt ingdon and intermediate stations to this place. “Fast” Youths. —There appears to be a growing propensity in the rising generation to be “dubbed”. “ Young America,” which often leads the ambitious into i habits of vice and in- “Young America,” &.C., basiruined many a boy. Here is a daguerreotype of a “ fast youth” which we commend to the careful perusal, but not im itation, of the boys of this place— “A cigar in his mouth, a swagger in his walk, impudence in his face, a care-for-nothingnesain his manner. Judging ft;om; his demeanor he is older than his father, wiser than his teacher, more honored' than the mayor of the town.— Stop him 1 he is too fasti he don’t know his speed! Stop him, ere tobacco shatters his nerves, ere whiskey makes a beast of him, ere his pride ruins his character, ere the “ lounger masters the .man,” ere good ambition abd man ly strength give way to low. pursuits and bru tish aims. Stop all such boys! They are le gion—-the shame of their families, the disgrace of their towns, the sad and solemn reproach to themselves. S&* Among the fashion items which are floating about in our exchanges, we find the following: All dresses are now made, without basques; the corsage n-point and double skirts are rarely seen. Flounces continue -in faror for both thin and thick materials; and are! worn in the street as well as at evening entertainments. The bur nous will be the most fashionable style of au tumn and winter outer garments. Casques, of the same material as the robe, are-also worn, and from a very suitable and becoming walk ing costume. They are tight to tbq'figure, and without any trimming. Dark plain silk are much in vogne for this style; of costume. The skirt, under lie b isque, is perfectly plain, with out any ornament, excepting |a row of large but tons down the front, matching those oh the cor sage 6f the casque. The very' warm weather has prevented any display, b yet, of autumn and winter modes. Tribute of ■Respect’ At a special communication of Mountain Lodge, No. 281, A.
