Jackson, conduct©* on the Penn’a E. R., by a man named Miohael Kirk, on Thursday erening last It appears that between eight and nine o’clock in the evening, while the deceased and some four or. five companions were sitting in front of a saloon on Peen street, Kirk and a woman named Lisbon camgi along, when it was proposed by Jackson to follow them, to which his companions assented, and leaving their gents they proceeded leisurely in pursnit of Kirk They followed Kirk and the woman until they entered Mechanics street bridge, where Jackson, who was in the advance, caught .up with them. Some words passed between them, the exact term of which is not known, bat something was said about shooting: Shortly after Jackson leaped from the side-walk into the carriage way, being then only a few feet from Kirk. The re , port of s pistol followed and Jackson fell dead on the bridge, while Kirk and his companion walked leisurely away. iOne of Jackson’s com panions then came ap, and finding that bis friend had been shot, be harried back to bis companions, and informing thein of wbathad occurred, a physician was sent for. He arrived on the ground in a few minutes but his services were of no Avail, as the deceased ‘bad never breathed after being shot, and was then a corpse. physician who made the postmortem exam ination gave in evidence that the ball hod pas sed though the ascending aorta, just as it leaves the heart, which was sufficient to produce in stant death. As soon as intelligence of the af fair reached the Mayor’s office, the entire police force was sent out to capture the murderer, but no trace of he or his companion could be found, although it is almost impossible for him to es cape. Young Jackson was known to many per sons in this pkee who will regret his sudden “ taking off.’* .His family -have the sympathy of all who are acquainted with them. .Turn ZquAVM.—This celebrated Chicago ;»ili taity company, aoknowled to be the best drilled company In ;the country, passed through this place on Monday morning last, on their way houe from an excursion to No w York, Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore. To look at them, one would be for from lbrmih£ a favorable opin ion of them, and--this proves) that appearances are deceiving. They ate all small men, few if any of them being medium size, and they are also all young men, most of them looking like bojs. The uniform worn on Monday morning consisted of red .pants, blue frock coats, or roundabouts, and red caps, and looked h little the worse of the wear. They intended Stopping over a day or two in Pittsburgh to givethe mill- Uiy of that city a lesson in military tactics. Their trip through the east has given a new im petus to the military spirit, and quite a number of Zouave -companies are being organized in the different cities visited. We Ibink it would be a fine thing for the country, were all the young men to join snob companies, and Ijve up to the Regulations which govern the Chicago company, viz;—drink no liquor of any kind, keep out of all bad company, keep good hours at night, ini short, live perfectly moral lives. ComaioH.—Oa Thursday morning last, the Fast Freight trains east and west came in colli sion near the second bridge above Lewistown.— They had ty>th been thrown out of time by the Express Passenger train East, which was an hour behind:time The engines -of both trains were completely wrecked, and the fireman on utsUntly idfted.

M. 7 « “ • JOHN SHOSUAKJBS, P. U. Marions.—Since our last Issue, we have ob two beantifal meteors ebook athwart the iky, neither of them, however, as huge asthe one noticed two weeks since. The first, on thurs day evening last, passed from West to 8. 8. E It passed very rapidly and left a beautiful trail behind it exactly resembling a rocket inits ascent The second, on Monday evening last passed from 3. S.E.toN. It was larger than the meteors usually seen, and was followed by a train similar to that of a rocket. When half iray wross the sky it Separated, one-half falling back into the train and making a beautiful py rotechnic displays. A correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger says that the week begining the 16th and end ing the 2Sd of July, was favorable to the pro iduction of electrical phenomena, and says that conditions will again be favorable during th/ week from the 16 th to the 22d of August, and from the 12th to the 18th of September; and those who have leisure will, in all probability, be highly entertained should they look heaven ward, on the nights of those days, particularly 16th, 17th, and 18th. of August, the 14th, 15th, and 16th of September. But meteors are not all that may be expected. Shooting stars are' seen every month of the year; but there Jse some half a doxen periods during which Uiey are very abundant. Tfaesenre April 22-25, July 17-26—during which the lifts meteor appeared —August 9-11, October 16-18, November 12-24 and 27-29, December 6-12. January is men tioned os having frequently brilliant displays, but the day .is not stationary. The August epoch seems to have been the richest of late years. It hardly ever fails to bring a very abundant harvest of meteors. Formerly that of November 12-14 exceeded all others. The De cember epoch seems to be poor, and the second one of November the most barren of all. As luminous, meteors, stones falling to the earth in showers or singly, shooting stars, and the like, seem to be all due to the same oosmical causes, these epochs are of special interest to the as- 1 tronomer and metreologist. 1 Miraculous Esoap*.— One day last week, Mr. Parks, miller at Baker’s Crystal Spring ■Mills, near this place, made a most miraculous escape. It appears that he was engaged in greasing some of the machinery, and in doing so, came in. contact with a perpendicular revol- Vlng iron shaft,.about three inches in diameter, which was covered with gummed oil, and having no vest on, apd his shirt having worked up loosely above his pants, tha gammed oil caught it and wound it around the shaft, drawing Mr. P. with it. He says he .remembers going around but how many more times he oan not tell, as the next he remembers was finding himself lying on the floor along aide of the shaft, with both his over and under shirt .torn off. It was fortunate that ha-fell, or was thrown, on that side of the shaft, for had he been thrown to the other side, he -would have, fallen upon the straps and wheels of themiil-gearing and been ground almost to powder. Other than a few slight braises, he received no iryary. How he escaped with sonnd limbs, even falling where he did, is a mystery. Fi*|i or in* Sbasoh.—On Wednesday last, August lst,;tbe season sot apart by an “ Act of Assembly” for shooting and hunting deer open ed, and at least one ©f our hunters has made an opening in the herd Of ties* who frequent the “ n ’eck ©’timber” styled the “ Kettle,” Our old friend, E<-B. Taylor, who is, in fact, a second edition of old Nimrod, brought down si fine yojang’faun, just in jrnne order, on the first day of tho season, and on Friday last, he drew a sure “ heed” on a whopping big buck, which he also brought down. He has oar thanks for those fine slices of the? old fellow’s hams which he left upon our table on Saturday. We wish him a buck every day while the season lasts; and are knpw if any man can find them he can. If they don’t get the “ Trial” of him he’ll fetch them. Fra* Gama.—On Saturday last, Mr. Rnn yan received from the West an invoice of .thirty head of the finest cattle, taken altogether/ that could be picked up in the western; counties. No better cattle are killed for any city market, for the reason that better could not be had.' The lot averaged him nearly $lOO a head—cash live iteight, and from this those who know the value of cattle can judge of them. But the best part of the matter is that these cattle are inten ded for the Altoona market. Mr; R, will serve them oat in pteak and roasts every Tuesday, Thursday, aad Saturday morning, and those who get meat of himcannotcpmplainof its quality. .. The eyer welcome countenance of H airy Gray, one of the popular conductors 0 f the Fast Xdnie, P. R. It, lopmed up in onr sanctum on Wednesday last, and it really did us good to get a shake hands with him,-as it is seldom that we have an opportunity to do so, tinder the present arrangement of the trains. We found him the same genial spirit that he has ever been and by which he has made himself sp many .worn friends, and become so popular with the travel ing community. Few men have served the com pany more stpadUy imd fMlhfully thanHany, during the last eight yean, and his place could not be better filled. Long may he occupy it. day last week, a party of bqys, who were playing •in the cellar under the kitchen part of Mr. Alex. Mock’s new house, in East Altoona, attempted to get up a hen-fire, igniting a BBatch . and setting fire to a lot of shap ings and kindling wood which had bepn stored away therein. Fortunately the fire ered .before it had obtained headway anoa few buckets of water, judiciously applied, extin guished it, and saved the Good Will boys a run ttith the ’* mersheen.!* 1 Accidents. —On Tuesday morning last, Steel Feaoht fell from, the roof of a building in this place,..upon which he was working, bruising his thigh and straining his back considerably.
