w tiifylng all who heard them that they are su- j
to most and, equal toany institutions of j
J* kind in , the State., We feel proud of our
mad, and the citizens of llollidaysburg cOrtain-
Vy have reason to feel proud of theirs. Wo can
dr»w no comparison between them, and would
not If wo could. We consider living in
WTC , go contiguous and liable to; be often
thiruwa together, there should be nonet of that
ill-feeling which invidious comparison would
ingtbder, though we think it perfectly right
ikit Wrt should be rivaby enough to incite
the members to increased efforts W perfect
themselves in the rudiments of musih and moke
them masters of thoir own The
thttboftho citizens ofthisplacearkdae, and,
throagh “s. «*. tendered .to .Van Tries’ .Cornet
Bind, for generously tendering their services
in a good cause, and adding so much interest
to the entertainment. The pieces of music exe
cutory Messrs. Rilcr and Walker, on tho vio
lin, were exceedingly difficult, butthe manner
ja which they performed them 'convinced every
person that they were masters of their instru
ments, and were greeted with spontaneous out
bursts of applause. Their performance at this
concert has given them n reputation as violin
fats of-which most men might well feel proud.
The performance by tho Indies, Misses IvoVy &
.Brubaker and Mrs. Bownan and De La Rosa,
were those most anxiously awaited by, a large
portion of the audience, ynd, all things consid
ered, they were highly successful; although it
was their hist appearance before a public as
semblage, their perfection in tho parts assum
ed rendered them competent to fulfil the expec
tations of their friends and elicit the applause
of, those who could appreciate .their efforts.—
The Altoona String Band, got up for the occa
sion, added no little to the pleasures of the en
tertainment. Wo were agreeably disappointed
in their paft oT the;’performance. Wo received
far more then we had anticipated. We knew
that we had many good musicians amongst us,
•but we did not imagine that they could, in so
abort a time, qualify themselves to take-so con
spicuous n part in a public entertainment. They
deserve much praise. part of the per
formance allotted to young Dougherty {was well
{{led up. He is a good vocalist, and the pieces
selected’and performed by him were received
by the entire assemblage ..with hearty applause,
and he was invariably, encored. With his voice
«»d gultar accdmplishinonts we would not be
afratdto travel at any time, In any company.
ffothing occurred to mar the. pleasures of the
entertainment, the only inconvenience experi
enced was froim the crowded condition of tho
room. Every person’ appeared satisfied with
the muiis, the \management of the entertain
ment. and themselves, the latter induced, no
doubt, by their having contributed to the nlle
vistioh of the sufferings of a number of their
fellow-beings. x , ( *

Applause at Public Abslewlblages.— We
hare a few locally appropriatej words to say in
regard to the above-named time-honored usage.
The custom,-we believe, -originated with the an
cient Homans; and we find recorded in reliable
history, that upon one occaaion. the birds of
the Air fell $0 the earth as from the stun
ning effects of. the noise of the vociferous ap
plause at the Amphitheatre. This applause
consisted -wholly of the. dapping of hands, and
loud words of encouragement to the deserving
performers at the entertainment! In
- plause ,of these almost primitive times, amipg
heathen nations, w« tcan perceive; some rationali
ty ; but inihe public so-called laudations of let
ter days, among enlightened people, oh, how |it
tle I Thera is a class of people, now-a-da/s,
who attend public gatherings for the ostensible
purpose 1 of making as much noise (and as cdn
tempible beings of themselves) as possible, epd
interrupting the pleasure'of peaceably disposed
citizens. They yell at the top of their voices,
clap their hands till they itch with pain, aid
stamp their feet till their very legs arc henuiqb
dd, at the close', and even in the midst of
performance—thus embarrassing the performer,
and deafening the ears of those who pay tleir
mite to be entertained. This condemnablc sort
of applause worried us immeasurably, as well
ns ,the majority of those present, at the Concert
for the Benefit of the Poor, on last Thursday
night, and we were almost tcmptc|, occasional
ly, to wish the brainless disturbers of public
je co a speedy exit out of a window—so much
were wc annoyed. We were sorry‘that our in
defatigable Constable, J. K. Ely, w’is notpros
•ntrby invitation to arrest and imprison them
as.the law directs. We think it would be con
ducive of good to the peaceably disposed public,
if the managers of public gatherings in oqr,
town would hereafter procure Joe’s services—
We are sure if they should, they would receive
the thanks of all order-loving citizens of the
town. Lot us have this abominable practice
stopped—the laws of the State are opposed to
it; all good citizens are opposed to it—‘and all
that is needed to do away with it is prompt
energetic action. Joe, take the matter n hand,
and a grateful community will bless ybi
We desire here to state that those nho mis
behaved at .the recent concert were nottoitizens
of Altoona, but the offscourings of othc| places
who are here temporarily. j
The Scppkr at tub Altoona Ilona;. —By
invitation, we attended the supper serveiup at
the Altoona Bouse, on Thursday evening last,
for the musicians in attendance at the Concert
for the benefit of the poor. It was such a
supper as the gentlemanly proprietor of the
house, John Woods, Esq., could ge\ up on short
notice. It consisted of, oysters, <kkes, jollies
and various luxuries that would ibivc tickled
the palate of the most fastidious eiicurean.—
After ample justice had boon done eata
bles, the manager of the Concert, Mr. Geo. B.
Cramer, Was toasted. Being a man *f notions,
not words, his response was short, ait appro
priate, and concluded with a toast to Tate,
of Bedford, who was present ns a gnek of Van
Tries Band. Col. T. responded in a happy
strain, paying a high compliment to tic musi
cians, the Manager of the Concert, the
ty of the citizens ot Altoona, and the sniper.—
A unanimous' call was then made for aong,
and My. Curry, who was present, was finally,
prevailed upon to respond which he did in ex
cellent style. The next call was upon o«r Uu
morous friend, Al|ex. Vaughn for his song y Oh!
Angelino, I love you, u which he sung ii his
usual inimitable style, to- the great of
the 'china ware' oh the-table. After a toast to
the kind host of the Altoona House, the festival
was cut short by the announcement that the
engine, which was to convey Van Tries’ Band
to Hollidaysburg, was in Readiness. The best
of feeling prevailed, and from expressions mf.de
we believe that the .invited musicians were high
ly pleased with the manner in which they jwere
received and entertained. Previous to depart
ing, Van Tries’ Band serenaded the Manager
of the Concert at his residence jin East Altoona.

Conviction fob. Cutting Timcee. —The Leg
islature of this State, in-1824, passed an Act
of Assembly making it a criminal offence for any
one to go on the land, of another, knowing it to
be such, and cut timber trees. | Lyon, Slurb
& Co,, Iron Master? and the owners of a jlsrge
body. of timber land adjoining the Tyrone Forgo
property, indicted a man by thoinomo of-Thos.
Dougherty for violating the Act of 1824, and he
was tried last week at the Quarter Sessions of
this county, and convicted of the offence. We
are informed that this is the first conviction
Under this Act, before Judge Taylor, in his Ju-'
dicial District. The decision is a very impor
tant one to all owners <jf unoccupied timber
lands. It being requisite under the Act to
show the guilty knowledge of the Deft., to con
vict, and as most persons who carry away the
timber do so iindci* some pretended claim to the
land, it is difficult to punish thetn. S. S. Blair

Resignation 'and Appointment.— Mr. John
B. Anderson has resigned His position os Super
intendent of the Middle Division of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, and accepted the appointment
of General Superintendent,of the Pittsburgh, Ft.
Wayne and Chicago Railroad. Mr. A.’a stay as
Supt. Middle Division, P. R. R. Was short, but
sufficiently long to convince those over whom
he’ was pliiced, as well ah those-who selected
him, that he was capable of filling any station
of the kind which might be entrusted to him.—
With Mr. Anderson at the head of affairs on the
Pittsburgh, Ft. Wayne and Chicago Road, and
the Pennsylvania Central 'under; the care' of its
present General Superintendent, the route from
Chicago to Philadelphia, Wc say without fear of
contradiction, will bo the best managed and
most popular in the country. Wo have not
learned who’is to be Mr. Anderson’s successor
in the office at this place. ’ ,
Meanness Unexampled.— The man who, in

crust of bread from ,a blind, helpless widow, is
meaner ; and he who robs the printer of his hard
earned pay, is tho meanest of the three char
acters mentioned ; but, astounding fact-;.- w e

all these three! AV the door of Keystone Hall,
last Thursday nighty on the occasion of the Con

the door-keeper a counterfeit quarter of a dollar !

of this term, in. referring to A<jta of the Legis

is drawn from the clearing of forest land, in a

influence during her warfare. We are informed that ft|ra
number of years past she has been waiting for the period
when death would bid her travel from this body of sin and
death. Death to her had nesting, no dread. Oh! no; her
mortal life was “swallowed up in victory.” Thus OUr
friend has left her earthly house of clay and corruption,
and entered the immortal in the celestial legions, where
there are no deaths, no graves. Truly may we exclaim,
•• Ble.-oed arc thu dead which die in tho LvJni.”
