jjluly to Reeonr.— lt Is onr painful jdutyto-day
to iteord an accident, the details of which are
(a Scient to chili the blood in the -veins of the
ud cause all to turn with feelings of
| koß or from the contemplation of a'seene each as
uoit bore been presented to those who witnessed
it. It appears that on Friday evening last, the
Mr. Wm. Hagerty, residing some 3 miles
jjjlotr this place, filled a lamp with burning fluid,
«hich was said to be non-explosive, and after
lighting it, set it on a table in a room, in which
trot her youngest child, and turnejd to .go out
lonediately after setting down the lamp it ex
ploded and sot fire to the clotheaof the, child ,
Ihii alanned Mrs. Hagerty so. muoh that her
pfOsMce of mind forsook her, and instead of
trapping the child in her own clothes or at
tempting to smother the flames, she picked it
op and ran out of the house, thus fanning the
flames. As soon as she came out of the house
■be was observed by Mr. Barker, a neighbor,
who immediately ran to her relief, and
snatching the child from her, stripped off its
clothes as speedily as possible, but-nofc in time
to save it from being shockingly burned, this
done he proceeded to the relief of Mrs. Hagerty,
whoso clothes were in flames, but,she refused to
let him tear them off. After repeated attempts,
however, he succeeded in divesting her of all
which bad taken fire, Sht she was so much
(.timed that it was impossible for her to live.
A messenger was immediately despatched for a
j hvskiaa. Dr. Christy answered {h<s call, and
to him we nrq indebted for our information.
When he arrived, he found- the woman out of
let mind, doubtless from the pain she was then
jufTering. On examination he found that all
the skin, from her neck to her knees, was en
uaj burned off. and that at her waist, where
her skirts Lad been fastened, her abdomen was
burned almost through. Her breasts weie so
much burned that it was almost impossible for
the Dr. to dress them, and her hands and fingers
•ere a perfect crisp. The Dr immediately ap
plied th^usual remedies in such cases and ad
ministered opiaTcs which served to ease her pain
and restore her to sensibility. She lingered until
Sunday morning last, when death put an end to
her sufferings. The child, which is about two
jnrs old, was severely burned on the left side
and thigh, but not so deeply as was its mother.
The Dr. thinks that if inflamation can be kept
down it will recover. At-the time of the acci
dent there was no person about the house except
Mrs. Hagerty and the child, although we un
derstand Mr. Hagerty has several children,
icme of whom are grown up
DitTKEsSixo Accident.— William Praner, a
citizen of this place, lost his life on Friday of

t;, causing a general silent pang of grief. Ho

—Pitltburgh Trite Prat, WKn “*”•
WpablU the above for the purpose of
| .Pitting the toddle on the right horse,” as,
j ! ,B “ lho publication of our-last paper, we haTe
| found out, who the “ officious official at Altoona”
I “ **** “ impertinent inter
ferftice with , one of the “ City Fathers ” of
i ** Ur gh consisted. The facts are simply as
follows t—lt appears that a few of the “ City
Fathers” of Pittsburgh constituted themselves
a committee to accompany the City Council of
Cincinnati, on the occasion of their recent visit
to this place. On the jnoming after their arri
val here, the “City Father” of Pittsburgh, allu
ded-to in the .above extract, in company with a
companion, stepped into a confectionary and
notion store up street, to' purchase some torpt•
doa. The proprietor of the establishment being
eiok, a lad some 10 or 12 years old was in at
tendance. After selecting a quantity of the
articles desired, the “ Ciiy Father" of Pittsburgh
attempted a violation of a law of the State by
offering a foreign $l,OO bill (whether genuine or
not the boy could not tell) in payment for the tor %
pedoa. The boy hesitated to take the note, and
while they were quibling about it, our excellent
Constable, Joe Ely, happened to step in, and
upon learning the matter in dispute, warned
the boy, as he, was in duty bound to do, not to
take the note. Thereupon the “C% Father ” of
Pittsburgh palled oat the change and paid the
boy, after which he addressed himself to Con
stable Ely, and (hs we have been informed by a
gentleman of undoubted veracity, who was pre
sent) delivered himself of a volley of invectives,
such as might alcme.be heard at a club meeting
of “ Dead-Rabbits” or “Plug Uglies.” From
th;s circumstance, the gentleman referred to
conceived the idea that these men—one of whom
it since turns out is one of the “ City Fathers”
ol Pittsburgh—were blacklegs, burglars, pick
pockets or members of sonyj other piofesslon of
like character, and would bear watching, and
accordingly suggested to Constable Ely that he
hm* better keep an eye on them while they re-
mained in town, which suggestion was duly acted
upon and the manoeuvres of the “ City Father ”
of Pittsburgh and his .companion duly overseen
until they took their departure. As to the in
timation thrown out that our Constable would
have tarod the worst for the handling he would
have met with had he accepted the invitation to
visit the delegation at the cars, we have only to
say that had an attempt been made to handle
him, the “ City Father"’ of Pitsburgh and hia
backers would thereby have obtained a fine op-
portunity to visit and inspect the interior work-
manship of our “ Lockup” at their leisure. If
Pittsburgh has many such “ City Fathers" we
do not wonder that she has such a hopeful set
of sons.
ITEap, You.no Men. —Horace Mann, in speak
ing of the utility of libraries says:—“lf one of n
caravan, in crossing the Arabian desert, should
accidently descry a fountain at a distance, in
the broad wasteland, stealing to it unpcrceived
by the rest of the company, should slake his
own thirst with its sweet waters, and th£n leave
the stream to flow uselessly away, and to bo
absorbed and lost in. the-barren sands, without
calling upon bis companions to Come.and cool
their parched lips with the delicious draught—
with what epithet would men Stigmatise the in
humanity of the deed? Let him, wbo, from
the- accident of birth or of circumstances, Jins
tasted the satisfactions and the delights, and
has experienced tho utility of knowledge, but
does nothing to confer up on his fellow beings
the blessings which he has enjoyed, answer tho
question.” We will take the opposite of this
and add:—Shotild this man inform his compan
ions that he had found a spring of pure water,
wide enough and deep enough to supply them
with nourishment for flie whole of the jour
ney, and a number of the party would refuse to
draw nigh to the spring and fill their pitchers,
and would content themselves with begging or
stealing a limited supply from those who had
been more provident—with what epithet would
men stigmatize such consumate folly ? -The
cases arc parallel. Let' the man who drinks
daily at the fountain of knowk-Jgc in the desert
of life, not suffer its copious waters to flow
wasteful!* away, without calling upon his fel
low travellers in the journey to drink of a stream
that ia abundant for all; and let the traveller
thus hailed, not be foolish enough to pass by
tho stream without stopping to partake thereof
and securing a supply for future use. Applica
tion—let the members of the Altoona Meehan'-
,ics’ Library and Heading Boom Association seek
to add to their numbers, and let those who have
not yet entered the Association embrace the
first opportunity to have their names enrolled
therein.

back-; of Chimney Rocks. Several young men
of ths place, attempted to explore it. but found
the experiment rather dangerous. One or two
° f *? ***? stored down the opening, per
pendicularly, by means ofropes, to the depth
of foity crafty feet, bat could discover no side
opening. They describe the bottom of the
cave, pr rather hole, as being about twelve feet
in the sides being ornamented with
benutifu! stalactites—numerous specimens of
which they brought with them. Another nnd
more thorough exploration is talked of. We
apprehend that it will prove to be no great
shakes. — Standard.
~G oOD Ti mes.— The “good time coining,”
•Which has been so long delayed, we think is
now at hand, at least so far as a fair supply gf
the necessaries of life and fair prices are con
cerned. Potatoes have lately come down from
$1,50 to 80 cts. per bushel, and a strong proba
bility that tjiey will come down one-half more
ere long. Flour has fallen $2 to $2,60
per bb|. and will likely foil $2 more. Apples
are apples again, and not lumps of gold. Corn
now commands 10 and 12 cts. per dozen, with a
prospect of a further decline. Hurrah for the
‘' good times -” Printers can now live like other
folks. :
Examination of Teachers.— The examina
tion of teachers and applicants for the public
schools of'th|s place, came off in Westward
School House; on Saturday last. There were erer
twenty teachers present, most of whom passed
muster; in a creditable manner. The Directors
met immediately after the close of the exami
nation |o select teachers for the coming ses
sion, bat we Have not yet been furnished with
a list of those selected. The schools are to
open on the first Monday in September and con
tinue open ten months.
Ladies’ Fair. —The Ladies’ Fair for the ben
efit of St. Luke’s Protestant Episcopal Church,
is now Open in the Library Room, and should
bo visited by everybody. We have not yet had
time to visit it, but are informed that it is gotten
up with much taste, and that the ladies are de
serving of great praise and encouragement—
. The supper noticed in our last to come off on
Friday evening, has been changed to this (Thurs
day) evening. Tickets 50 cents.
A Luxury. —Take a dozen or two of ears of
corn, (the sweet varieties preferred,) husk, and,
without boiling, grate off the grains. Stir into
this about two tablcspoonaful of flour for every
dozen ears, and also on egg previously well
beaten, and a little salt and very little sugar..
If the corn be sweet, about two tablespoonful
to every dozen ears. Let tbe whole bo well
stirred, and baked in a greased tin pan, for an
hour, in a hot oven. Then eat with fresh but
ter or cream.
Dramatic Association.— The Young Mens’
Dramatic Association, of this place, gave two
Entertainments in Shultz’s Hall, on Monday
and Tuesday evenings last. This Association
appears to have now become one of the fixed
Institutions of the place, and its repeated en
tertainments is an evidence that they are ap
preciated by the public and remunerative to the
members.. • :

M*ssaa. Editors ;—The prevailing epidemic
in this place for some days past, has been the
Cutup-meeting fever. On Sabbath last your
correspondent also became affected with it, and
paid a Visit to the one now in progress in the
vicinity aif Williamsburg.
We did not leave this place until late in the
morning, consequently our arrival in Williams
burg was not until the morning services were
over. In the afteroon, however, we wended
our way tojwards tho Camp Ground, which was
between ja half: and three-quarters of a mile
from the town. We found on the ground be
tween 30s and *0 tents, and quite a large as
semblage of persons. The afternoon sermon was
preached by Rev. Thomas Barnhart, of Williams
burg, and, was a funeral discourse upon the death
of the Key. Stevens, of Williamsburg. He was
listened tj> with great attention. The evening
sermon wps preached by the Rev. Mellick, to a
large congregation. The subject of his discourse
was tho certainty of'a final judgment, and was
discussed in an able and eloquent manner. Af
ter the siehnqn, those persons desiring prayer
were invited to the altar. We hope that the ef
fort tbat jis now making may be crowned with
success aqd that many will be brought into the
“ marvellous light and liberty of the gospel.”
la the death of Rev. Stevens, which occurred
on last Saturday morning, the community of
Williamsburg has lost one of its oldest and most
respected tnembers. He had been for a number
of years past P resident of that place, where he
was honored and, beloved by, all who came with
in the circle of h|s acquaintance. At theperiod
of his depth he was well advanced in years,
being sompwhai upwards of eighty years of age.
During a o/ acHye and diligent labor
in the .cause] of bis plaster, he walked at all
times worthy :of the profession which bo had
ohosen. Of late years his increasing age pre
vented him froip preaching the gospel to-his
fellow-creatures, yet in all his trials and afflic
tiohs his faith 'Vihe promises of his God
,j. ip •* pr«- .was
strong and unwavering. / fib remains were in
terred in the hletbodbl Grave Yard on Sab*
bath, fallowed by a largo conoonrse of friends

Our risk Williamsburg was of very short
duration, consequently we cannot giro a fall

that during abj^'we we« that
