fi. S. Pic Nicl—-On Thursday . last,
tbe teachers, scholars and friends pf the Metho
dist Sunday Sohppl, in this place, repaired to
the grove adjoining West Altoona,' for the pur
pose of spending the day aftcr the manner of a
picnic. Although the. sun did pot shine out
brightly in the morning, it did npt deter any
from going who bad made preparations, and the
number on the ground jvas much larger than we
anticipated. passed off pleasantly
until nbout two o’clock, when a smart shower
«uscd everybody to make for the nearest shel
ter. After the shower, had passed they again
repaired to the grove, but their (stay was of
ehort duration, as the lowering clouds, and peals
of thunder, warned them of approaching showers,
end, after consultation, Jt was agreed to dis
perse. We were Only some ten or (fifteen min
utes on the ground, but long enough to be satis
fied that all were enjoying (as it
*is dinner time.) Some half-dozenisf swings
bad been put up and were (kept moving all the
time. ' ■ '
Hoo Item.—As local items are likely to be
ttarce this week, we shall be pardoned, we hope,
for refering to the hog' question, which is .now
tbe most important to some people, especially
those whose porkers have fallen into the hands
of Joe. For eomei time past he has been enga
ged in impounding all hogs found “lying aroand
loose ’ upon our streets, and the effect has been,
thanks to the Ordinance and indefatigable Joe,
to rid our streets of these unsightly ornaments.
noticed last week that a couple of individp
‘ls had been arrested mid fined $5 each and
Wst! > for interfering with 5 the pound. This has
cooled the disposition of enraged owners
of porcine prisoners to interfere with the prison
wlls, as they well know that Joe will “ pat
them through" if they do. The best advice we
5411 give on. the subject iafor every man to look
oat for his own bacon; and if he fails to do so,
Joe will attend to it for him, knd add a
quarters worth of salt to. it on short notice.

Bwhiniho Bods —-There have been s .great
Hnuber. of instances during the late heavy than
showers, where buildings having conductors
Were atrhek with Ughtning. This, says the
SefenUfit American, does not in the least disap
prove the value of a rod. “ Its functions are
simply that df a-conductor, not of an attractor.
It is carried up to'sndr an elevation mhove the
bußding that U may take the eleotric cloud and
conduct it silently tb the earth, in oSier to pre- r
▼ent it striking the non-conducting part of the
building. To do this perfectly, it must be con
tinuous from point to base, and form a perfect
connection with the moist earth below. If this
connection is not perfect, of course the rod can
not perform the functions of a conductor, and a
disruptive disoharge may take place. There is
abundant evidence for concluding that all houses
which have been struck with lightning when
furnished with a rod have had tho conductor im
perfectly connected, either in the sections of the
rod or-in the earth. The rod. should extend
down several feet in the ground, and have a
largo plate or bar of metal at the base, accord
ing to the arrangement of the electric circuits
at oil teleigrapk stations. If a house is built on
a dry and sandy situation, it is all the more ne
cessary to bo careful in extending the conduc
tor Aeep into the ertlh, where it will meet with
moist soil. If, all lightning,rods of the common
size were thus carefully put up, we should set
dom hear of houses having rods being struck
with lightning.” '

Sanitary. —As we have now fairly entered
upon the *< heated term,” it behooves all who’
have any Regard for their own! health, ortho
general good, to. take measures for the removal
of every cause, that.may induce or promote dis
ease. A duo attention to cleanliness about your
premises will be a good investment, .saving tbe
trifling cost a. dozen times daring tbe summer.
Gutters should be kept clean, cellars cleaned
out and garbage removed from the bock alleys
and not allowed to again accumulate. If prac
ticable, water, the great purifier, should every-,
where have free course, while a spriiikling of
the street in front of your dwelling in the even
ing would add much to comfort as well os les
sening the obanpes of disease. Chloride of lime,
slaked lime, dissolved copperas, coffee grounds,
and like disinfebtors should be thrown into sinks
and strewn about in close cellars and out houses.
Putrid meat, and in such weather as this it soon
becomes so, should be removed from the premi
ses to keep away insects. There are many other
precautions w|hich will readily occur to those
who really desire to preserve their health, and
by attending to those matters their duty will at
least nave been petfotmed, whilst they will find
their reward in increased comfort and security
from infection.
Pic Nice,—The arrangement for the Catholic
picnic. to be held iu Beale’s Woods oh the com
ing'Fourth, are almost completed arc very
extensive. Those who attend will get a good
dinner besides having ample opportunity to
enjoy themselves as they may desire.
A number of young men in this place are ma
king arrangements to have a private party pic
nic in one of the adjoining groves. As the man -
agers know how to get up an affair of this kind
the participants will of coufse have a fine time
of it We wish them all tjbe pleasure they un
anticipated
' Oce Routso Mills.-—Ben Johnston’s new
Bolling Mill at this place, for the manufacture
of smell iron, is progressing rapidly, and will
probably be in operation in the course of three
weeks. MoNatnattTa big mill, for making sheet
•iron, bar iron, &c.,- is also going forward but
will not gel into operation for some time yet—
These two Establishments, when completed will
be quite an addition to the manufacturing ca-
our town, and of coarse we all feel
a in 'them, and rejoice to see
them going forward so ijpmisinglv. — Rcgieter. -.
Good.—One of the pig-eatohers in Pitts
burgh, a fey nights since, caught some ten por
kers lying around loose and .hurried them off in
the dark to the city pound. On going home the
next morning, his wife informed him that their
hogs had broken out the’previous night. Search
was made for them but they were non est; so
the pig-catcher bent his way to the pound, and
we conclude from the winding up of the account,
that he found them there. That haul didn’t pay
well. -
Thanks —Our senior devil desires to return
his thanks and make his npost magnificent bow
to the §iir la'dy who presented him with a hand
some boquet, a few evenings since. Jeems is
popular with the fair eex, but he couldn’t be
otherwise if he patterns after his bosses.
The lady who left a paper of fine strawberries
with the junior of the firm down stairs, with the
request to hand up to us, will consider herself
politely thanked thftcfor. Such presents al
ways acceptable.
Invitations, Jiave now invitations to
three different pic-nics and dinners to come off
on the Fourth, and as all promise to be recherche
affairs, pur kind friends may imagine wbat a
predicament we are in. We would like to attend
all of them and partake of the hospitality of
our ftiends, but this is Impossible. We have yet
six days in which to decide, and will endeavor
to arrive at a conclusion in that time. At all
events we are sore of a good dinner.
Has Rbtuesed.—Fet has returned and
brought, with him a profusion of kniok knacks,
expressly for the glorious Fourth, consisting in
part of flags and materials for wreaths, fire
works of every description, confectionaries in
endless variety, maskafor fantastical clubs, and
every thing which may be required tofit out pic
nice «id parties on the Fourth. Wo can not
give a description pf or notice all he has in store,
but advise one and all to go and see.
Tsi Comaowß*.—Esquire McClellan has
been appointed by the To wn Council collector
of Borough tax for tire present year.
Constable Ely has been elected by the School
Board collector of School tax for the present year

Piulipsbueg AND Watbefobd R. R.—A con
vention of thp comnjissioners of the Philipsburg
and Waterford Railroad Company was held in
Clarion, on Friday jast, the 15th inst. Hon J
Keatly presided, jf. Crans, of Clearfield, and
William T. Alexander were elected Secretaries.
The object of the meeting was very fully and
satisfactorily stated by Hon. George R. Barrett,
Messrs. Campbell, Of Clarion, Barrett and Crans
of Cleanfield, took past in discussing the subject,
when it was agreed that the citizens of Clarion
should be called together, that a sufficieht sum
may be subscribed .to survey the small portion
of the route along which no line has been. run.
That the route is practicable no-one present en
tertained a doubt—that he road can and will be
built is a foregone qonclusion—that the means
are abundant and pt hand, if the proper inter
est is taken to encourage the corporators to
commence at a very early day. The trifling sub
scriptions that will be made by individuals will
be expended within the -limitsbf the Counties
where road is making. The necessary in
formation to insure a liberal subscription by 4. he
people of Clarion county will be given at "the
first meeting, and previous to that call we will
have more to say on .the subject of this, the
greatest enterprise ever undertaken in Western
Pennsylvania.
“ Rica.”—lu the Massachusetts House of
Representatives, last winter, considerable noise
was made by a member declaring that one of
the horse railroad companies had attempted to
bribe him by forcing a $lOO bill upon him, end
the bdl being exhibited, the II ouse ordered it
to be deposited in the Savings Bank. In the
course of Tuesday lost, some inquiry being made
on thp subject, the Speaker stated that he had
not deposited the bill because he had not been
able to get the money from the member ■ of the
committeel who had it 2 An order was there
fore passed that the Attorney General be re
quested to assist the: Speaker in getting the bill.

Oil. Works Burnt.— On Wednesday night,
says the Lawrence Journal, May 23d, about 11
o’clock, a fire commenced m the refinery of the
Hartford Coal 0)1 Cdinpany, (usually known as
Green’s Works) about two and a half miles
south of Canfield, Mahoning county, Ohio, and
consumed that building and the retort and en
gine bouses, with some .seventy . .barrels of re
fined oil, a large quantity of oil in different
stages of manufacture, and between three and
four hundred tops of coal. ' The still house is of
brick and is not! injured. The retorts and en
gine are only Rightly damaged. The company
have commenced re-building. The estimated
loss in and is $2,600 ; in
oil, coal, &0., $3,60(1; no insurance. ■
JWSF" it is said thai “ Tommy,” the represen
tative of “ Young Japan,” now with the Embas
sy, gave a quiet jhit ;tp a civic functionary in
Philadelphia, on Suuday. The magnate was
trying to chat with him at the Continental'
Hotel, and at last told the youth that he had a
venerable female relative who desired to con
verse with him in thb Dutch language, of which
he kngws a little. Tommy said, “ Ver well, I
go see her now.’’ His visitor gravely told him,
“Sot to-day ; in this 'Christian country no one
pays visits on the Sabbath.” Tommy knowing

here ?” 1 . ;
Remarkable Spring.—ln Green coanty, Va.,
there ia a remarkable natural curiosity inown
as the “ Tidal Sjpringi” The water issues out
of the ground in u bolii stream sufficiently strong
to turn a small jurist ijniU, and it continues to

B&- The New York Tribune expresses that
the young women marry in this country more
reckless than any where else. Is there a village
of fifty houses in the land wherein a plausible,
well dressed adventurer, of whom nobody knows
anything, cannot marry a girl of spotless char
acter, after a residence of six weeks t Such
marriages—in fact, all marriage not based upon
Intimate knowledge and profound esteem, as
well as fervent love—are somewhat more repu

ly cue whit less culpable of peril.

year* havebeen marked'with the rapidgrowth
of Mwoni? in the United States. : The number
i of m embera within the jurisdiction of the Grand
Lodges of the several Stateaare not reporiedbut
| we learn from the statistios of the GrandiLodge
of the United States, that there were in 1859
upwards of 4,000 Lodges; and counting the
number of members for each Lodge at forty-five,
which is less than the general aver
age for the State of New Fork, and thirty-five
less than that of Pennsylvania, we have the
number of. Masons connected with Lodges in
the Union as nearly two hundred and seven
thousand, while there are large numbers of
Masons in every State not connected with any
Lodge. It is safe, therefore, to put down the
number of Masons at the present time within the
United-States at a quarter of a million.

Paw. 0. J. Wool: Dear Sir:—Your Hair Restorative la
rapidly gaining popularity in this community. I hate bad
occasion to toy prejudice aside, anil giro your Hair Res
torative a perfect test
nrlß s F car I was so unfortunate os to be
ttown fro* my sulky agninsto. rock, near the rooiUdls,
from which my head received a most terrible' blow; cau
"eal °. f irritatiou, which communicated to th*
d “ tsernal snrfacn of the head, from the effects of
which my hair was finally destroyed over the entire snr*
of the head. From the time I first discovered Its
dropping, however, up to the time of its total disanuaar
auw, 1 employed everything I coma think ofi being* pro
femlonal man myself, and, as I thought, undcr»tan<Un«tb*
nature of the disease, but was finally defeated in gvenrnr*-
Bfriptlon advanced.,
These and no other circumstances Induced me to retort
to your worthy Hair Bcsforativc, which X have eieryrea
am to believe, produced a Very happy result; two ™™.tv r
after tho first application, X' had as beautiful a head er
young-hair os X over saw, for which I certainly- owayou
my most sincere thanks. Best assured, dear sir, X shall
recommend your remedy to all Inquirers; moreover, Xshall
use my influence,which I flatter myself to say, is no* a

■—l feel it my duty as well as my pleasure, to
state to you the following circumstance, which you. Can Me
as you think proper. A gentleman ol this place, (a few
yer,) has been bald over since his early youth ; so much so,
that he was compelled to wear a wig.' Ho was. induced to
use-abottle of your “Hair Bestorutivo,” which ho liked
very,much; and after using some two or three bottka* his
hair grew out quite luxuriantly, and he now ha* a haul?
aome head of hair. The gentleman’s name is Bradford, and
as he Is very well known In our adjoining comities, many
persons can testify to the truth of this statement; X give
It to you at the request of Mr. Bradford. Ton eaaalua
p?reot deal of your Hair Restorative in this and Um adjoin

Da. wood; Dear Sir: Permit me to express thaobMiU
tiona I am under for the entire restoration ot my haifto
its original color; about the time of my arrival in, the
United States It wus rapidly becoming gray, but unonth*
application of your <‘ Hair Restorative?’ it soon recovered
its original hue. I consider your Restorative aa a very
wonderful Invention, quite efficacious as well as, agreeable.
