Rail Road Officers in Trouble.— For sev eral daysipast the faithlessness of some of the Conductors and Agents on the Penn’a E. R. has been the subject at conversation on pur stredt corners and other circles; but as -we have no definite information in relation to the affair, ire eM say nothing about it-{ but give the follow ing trMoh we find in the Philadelphia Inquirer of Thursday last:— Eiagerated accounts have been circulated for Ibe last few days with regard* to the loss sus tained by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company through the' faithlessness of some ,of the" officials on the line of the'road. It affords us pleasure to be able to state that the loss, much smaller in itself than generally reported, has been re covered by the Company. At the same time the discovery of the present peculation has secured ( tbc Company from further loss of the same sort, by showing its managers the necessity of the adoption of new checks, rendering the detection of such practices inevitable. The means adop ted by the officers of thp Company daring the past three months, were so complete in all the details as to enable them to understand fully tbe operations* of all employees that were'sus pected. A general examination has taken place ® the last few days in this city, Philadelphia, nttiburgh and other places, resulting in the recovery of cash, stock, property, &c., to a con- Rderaole amount, being, the investments of the proceeds of tickets returned to ticket agents cod othersj and by them resold, and. the daily appropriations from cash collections,by conduc es. A number of the conductors,and several igents have been discharged. With the exam fes made, and the rigid System now adopted e examination of accounts, those now jn the emco-will n° doubt render faithful reports, d lead amhonest, upright life for the future, is supposed that the evil, in a few years, oaid have grown to be a serious matter, to the «cr of congratulation that the whole scheme ““covered,f and .has been so completely caected for the' future. The Nbtherh Central abroad has also suffered 'considerably. \.

He had a large amount of money in his posses sion, which he carried in a belt upon his pei son. He-stayed all night at the hotel of Mr. Jordan. The next day he made arrangements with Mr. Wesley Nevling for - the purchase' of Ins farm, and after dinner, whilst an article of agreement was being drawn up, he said he woald.go into a piece of woods, which is upon the place, for the purpose of examining the timber. He went into the woods alone, and from that time nothing baa ’been, heard of him. . The community in the neighborhood of Jsnes ville is in a great state of excitement. It is believed that he has been foully dealt with, but we have not learned that any one in that neigh borhood is. suspected.

He was alone in the field at the time, .but instantly, cat oat with his pocket knife the place that was bitten, A few ulcerated sores have mode their appearance in the neighborhood of the wound, but beyond this he has sustained, no inconve nience from the poison. He is not ten years old, and for his age certainly displayed n great deal of courage and presence of mind, Mr. Waring’s farm adjoins Tyrone. On Saturday last a meeting of the bar of this Judicial District was held at the Logan House, Altoona, for the purpose of adopting a uniform set of rules of court for the District. Hon. George Taylor presided, and the bar of the va rious counties was largely represented. On Friday last, a son. of Mr. James McFar land, of this place, whilst engaged in gathering plums for bis bapther, fell from the tree, a dis tance of some ten feet, injuring himself quite seriously. Fortunately; however no bones were broken. : _ The child of Biddy Creely (whose arrest wc noticed last week) died in the Poor House on Thursday last. People’s Party Meeting.— A meeting of the People’s Party was held in this place on Mon day evening last, which attracted a pretty large crowd. The Altoona “ Wide Awake” Club turn ed out between,.sixty and seventy torches. For ty of the Club wore attired in caps and capes.— They were preceded by the Altoona Brass Band. The “ Wide Awake” Club of Hollidayaburg, numbering 50, attired in the dub uniform, came out on a special train, accompanied by a large crowd. . They 1 were met at the depot by the Altoona C}ub and escorted to the vacant lots in the rear of the Post Office, where the meeting was hold. Addresses were delivered by Hon. Daniel Ullman, of New York, and George Cowen, of Westmoreland. 9 42 5 20 Another Store.— Wo notice that our friend, And. Clabaugh, has fitted up a store room in the corner of the “ Brant House,” where he has just opened a.lot of choice confectionaries, npts, fruits, cigars, tobacco, &0., to which he invites the attenUon of the good citizens of Al toona who .wish anything in his line. He also intends opening the newspaper and periodical business, and will supply papers and periodi cals regularly to all Who will leave their names with him. He wishes those who intend patron izing him to leave their nam cs previous to the 10th inst. Fall op a Bridge. —The bridge which crosses the Juniata between Hollidaysbarg and Gays port, gavp; way, on Wednesday of last week, whilst r drove; of cattle, belonging to Messrs. Berry, Irvin & Co., were passing over it. About thirty of tho cattle fell headlong into the river ■below, and many were more or less injured.— The bridge has been in,a very bad condition for a year pr two back, and it is hoped the Commis sioners will proceed immediately to erect a more substantial structure. Opening of the Schools.—A ten months session of the public schools in this place, opened on Monday lost, much to the satisfac tion of parents, but not so satisfactory, we pre sume, to those juveniles who have an antipathy “ classic.halls, ’’ and whoso backs, owing to a mischievous disposition, come in for frequent applications .of “ hickory oil.” All the advice and consolation we can give them is to keep an eye on the “ knight of the birch,” when at their pranks, and when caught “ grin and bear it.” A. S. S. A.—The Altoona Sabbath School As sociation will meet in the basement of the Pres byterian Church, on Friday evening, Sept. 7tb, 1860,tat 7J .o’clock.

' 2d. Is it expedient under the present circum stances, to continue longer the Altoona Union Sabbath Association ? Wanted I—Competent Business Men.— The demand for qkillful and accomplished accoun tants : is perpetual, and constantly increasing .with the increase of production and trade.— Young men wishing to prepare, themselves for commercial pnrsuUs wUI find no Institutionin this oonntry possessing advantages oqualto those afforded bythe Iron City College, of Pitts burgh, Pa., which ,is aoy .patronised by every State in thVUnion. ‘ ' : Hoax.-—As the “ Wide-Awakes*’ werepassing out of town r Q n - the road which leads from Branch street, to the Plapk' Boad, on their way to the People's 1 Party Meeting, :at Allegheny Furnace, on Thursday evening last, some malicious indi vidual threw a stone at one of the transparen cies, which missed its aim dud; sfruck a little girl on the bead knocking her down and cutting a severe gash. We intend going East in a few days, to purchase out Fall Stock—and we deem it only necessary to inform our customers of the fact, feeling .confident that they wili be on hands, to square up their accounts. ‘ J. & J.
