A Mobil Bot.— On Wednesday evening last, the Local Freight train If eat, on the Mountain’ Division, ah hour and thirty minutes be- hind time, and consequently was running at a pretty smart speed. About a mile east of Con , f ß»ugh, at a sharp curve, a largo rock fell on the track and broke, one-half going intti the rirer and the other half remaining on the north tnic k on which the Local 'Freight was running. A little boy, on his way from school, discovered the rock on the track and hearing the train coning took a red cap from the head of his lit- tle sister, ran with all his speed to meet the train and waring the Cap, succeeded in stopping it. The engineer says that bo certainly would haTOtTUD into the rock, had ho not been signal led, as he could not have seen it in tiqie to check the-train. The, boy who thus.exhibited m much forethought, and a knowledge of the me of signals, and the consequences to the train in case it was not stopped, is said to be only about 10 years of age. The taking of his sister's red cap 1 to use as a signal, evinces a self-' possession and thoughtfulness in such an emer gency, which would do credit to any man of mature years. For one of his years he .is cer tainly a model boy. His actions in this case certainly deserves (and We are pleased to say he has received) a.suitable reward. CHunca Doue Loafing.—Every paper in the country should contain an article weekly,' on the jirnicious and reprehensible practice of church door loufing. It is a trick indulged in by a set of young men, who, while they have not , yet sufficient courage to walk up to a girl abd offer their arm, have all the inclination. They no doubt sometimes screw up their courage to the point, and.think they will take a girl home, hut when the ladies step out of church the courage of the;would be gallants all ooze out at their finger cuds, and instead of being gallants, as 1 they should be, they make .themselves blackguards by indecently peering into the faces of the ladies and making npgentlemanly remarks.— Since these young men have not the courage or manliness to ask the privilege of accompanying the ladies home, we would suggest .that the la dies act the gallant and.ask of the young men the privilege of escorting: them home, as they certainly should not he allowed to N stay away from their mothers so long after nightfall! We hope the ladies will consider this matter seri ously and do something for the young men soon. We know they will receive the thanks of the mother’s of the young men for bringing them home at reasbntiblo hours.. Tut CoLPomeoa.—Mr. Jonathan Foqht, Col porteur of the American Tract Society, who has just finished canvassing this place, gives us the fallowing statement of the number of families visited and. the amount of his sales as compared with those of last year:— Vnmilic. vicited in 1859, 663,—Amount of sales, $271 95 “ “ 1860, 827, “ •«; 303 20 incr«L"p, Mr. Focht myites It his business to visit.every family In the town which he canvasses, taking the streets m regular, order, and his facilities for obtaining, the exact number ,pf families, are, therefore, the best that could be adopted. The increase in the number of families in this place, in. one year, is more than double what we imag ined it would be. Taking the general average of five to a family, we have 870 of an increase of population in one year. Should we have a corresponding increase for the next five years' (some think it will be greater), we Will be after spplying for a city charter. ’ Hr. Focht desires us to .return his thanks to the citizens of this place for the kind manner in which they received his visits and their liberali ty in the purchase of his works. Fa.ebweu. Sbbuox.—Wo understood that Hot. J.

Baker, of Allegheny Furnace, took fright at something in front of Mann's store, and started down Virginia street at a speed not consistent with safety. First the carriage struck a hatcher wagon, standing in front of Leonard’s Market bouse, .breaking an axle of the wagon, proceeding a little further, it run into the gutter in front of Joggard’s store, where one of the wheels broke down and bronght' the. carriage to a sudden halt, but the horses being inclined to go on broke the tongue loose and proceeded on their way dowq town, much to the detriment of tree boxes and trees, and were finally brought up by a tree in front of the Superintendent’s office. The driver, wVo was in the carriage at the time, and bad a fast hold on tbe lines, was jerked out rather unceremoni ously when the carriage halted, but was not much injured. Goon Flour.—Good flour is almost a godsend these days, the preponderance of bad flour being aogreat. That which is now called good wheat flour, would hardly have been considered good rye flour a few years since. The fault, however, is said not to be with the millers, hut in the grain, it having grown too large last year, and been too much exposed, to the sun while ripen ing. Be these excuses for bad flour true or false, we know that the flour manufactured at Baker’s Crystal Spring Mills it good flour, (not withstanding the defects : in the grain) as we have tried some of it. This Mill has always been celebrated for .turning out the best flour to be had in this or any other part of the country, and it bids fair to keep up its reputation. Flour from the Crystal Spring Mills.may be had in sacks of 25 or 50 lbs. weight,' or in barrels, at almost any of the stores in town. 'The Best Cough Kkhkdv Knows. —There is no doubt about the fact that Dr. Keyser’s Pecto ral Syrup is one of the most remarkable .cough medicines now offered to the public. Old cases of lung disease, bronchial, and every variety of lung disease, have yielded to its wonderful pow ers, and we therefore feel no hesitation in re commending our readers who .may be afflicted in that way to try'it. Theresa very little cost at tending the purchase of a bottle, which though it should not core) it will do no harm. We know Dr. Keyser to be a regular physician ; conscien tious in the discharge of his business, and our readers will Audit safer to trust such a man’s statements, than hundreds of those who ore un known to the community. For sale by Geo. W. Kessler. Small Pox. —ls this a Fact?—lf the follow ing, which we find among the local items .of a cotemporary, be true, it will certainly be of ad vantage to gas companies and gas (fitters:—A medical gentleman writes to a Now Fork paper that, from all the information he can obtain from medical men now having coses of Small Pox under treatment, that there is n? house where gas is burned, of the ordinaiy consumF* - tion, in which the disease has yet found lodg-. raent. The gas is a powerful disinfectant, and' hence there is no contagion within the circle of its influence, lie says that a person burning gas may contract the disease abroad and take it home with him, bat it wilt not be communica ted to any .other member of his family. • We stepped into the picture gallery, of Mr. Amey, n few days since, and examined a fpw of bis specimens, and if we are a judge of good pictures, and we think we are, we consi der his specimens the .best ever exhibited in the place. - Why, some of the pictures of our friends were so perfect that they almost spoke, and we felt like saying “ good morning” to them. .If you .wish to view the beautiful and perfect, go to Amoy’s gallery. We will not advise you to get a picture taken, for the reason that you will not leave without one if you examine his speci mens. 31 25 Daxs to be Bohn Ox.—Bom on a Sunday, a gentleman; born on, a Monday, fair in the face; bora on a Tuesday, full of grace; born on a Wednesday, sour and gram; bora on a Thurs day, welcome home; boro on a Friday, free in giving; bora on a Saturday, work hard (Tor a living.
