Looas House.— Wo take pleasure in copying
the following complimentary notice of the Loggn
House, in this place, from the June number inf
(Jodey’s Lady’s visit to tAltoona,
simply to take a. look through the immense work
shops of the great Pennsylvania Kail Road, would
lie agreeable, enough, particularly as you have also
11 rkie the whole distance through the most beauti
ful scenery on pur continent, passing through popu-'
lorn, towns, over a most substantially laid road,
ninding around mountains and through tunnels.—
This, we say, would be enough ; but when you citn
put up at such n house as the Logan, situated ,at
ihe foot of the mountains, and nearly surrounded
hv hills, from the top of which you have delightful
views, this certainly adds to the pleasures of the
trip. The Logan House was built and famished
hv the Pennsylvania Bail Boad Co., and is one of
the largest hotels in this State. It is kept in the
most admirable manner by Messrs. D. B. Miller &
Co., whose attention to their guests is unremitted.
The rooms are as well furnished as those of any
jirivate house, and the table not to be excelled anv
where. The constant arrival and departure of the
trains make it a lively spot. And now, after hav
ing spent a week.or more with our friends the
Millers, jump into the cars in the morning and go
over to Cresson, dess than an hour’s ride; away
you go up the mountain at a speed equal to the
level ; and here you witness one of the most splen
ilid specimens of engineering in the world—crossing
a mountain in a rail road car, hitherto thought im
possible until the Pennslvania Bail Road Co., deter
mined to conquer every obstacle, ‘went and did
it
Arriving nqgr the summit, you go through a
tunnel, and then comes your descent on the other
side. The scenery surroundings are majestic arid
.beautiful, and a sojourn at this mountain house in
the summer months is something akin to an eartlilv
paradise."
The Wounded Soldiers.— ln looidng over our
exchanged, we notice that the citizens of other
towns ate cpntinoally at work providing tfiings
necessary for the comfort of the brave men who
have been wounded in defence of the Stars and
Stripes, our glorious Union, and all trial we, as
American citizens, hold dear. Why has not Al
toona done something towards relieving their suf
ferings and cheering their hearts ? Is it because
our citizens have not been asked ? If so, they have
that excuse no longer. Urgent appeals have
been made from the hospitals at Philadelphia, Bal
timore. and Fortress Monroe. At Philadelphia
they want eveiything that will contribute to the
'velfare and comfort of a sick or wounded man.—
At the military hospitals at Baltimore they are not
« much in want of delicacies, but they do need
hospital shirts. Many of the wounded arrive in
that city before the least attention has been paid
to their wounds, and the first thing they want is
dean clothes. At Fortress Monroe they need
hutter and eggs, sponges, oiled silk, rags, ban-
Jages, lint, and dried fruit. Now,, cannot eaph
family in onr town send something ? If the men
are too busy to move in this matter, let some of the
energetic ladies of the town “put their heads to
gether,- ’ and see what can be done, and we feel
certain they will be promptly assisted in this noble
undertaking, by the men. Battles are occurring
i almost evei 7 day; dor friends and neighbors are
| being disabled by thousands, and shall we be so
| ungrateful as not td render them the Httle assist
iance which they beg, for fear, as we have 1 heard
jsome say, “our William wouldn’t get it, anyhow!’’.
[What if our own relatives do not enjoy the benefit
of the-self-same articles we send? 'Some poor,
I uffering soldier, just as brave and jnst as worthy,

Whereas, It is a matter of public-notoriety that
the laws in regard to gambling and the sale of in
toxicating drinks on Sunday arc openly violated in

daily increasing, and especially that great numbers
of young men and boys are drawn into the dens of
dissipation in every |«urt of the town and ruined.
Therefore,-
Resolved, That the High Constable of this Bor

enforce the laws of the State in regard to these
vices and crimes, and to spare no effort necessarv
to promote good Order, and to bring the offenders
against the laws to justice. -
On motion, the preamble and resolution offered
by N. J. Mervino was adopted and placed on file
and the High Constable instructed to have the laws
enforced.
On motion, adjonrued to meet on the first Mon
day evening in June..

Juvenile Pic-Nics.—Oh Monday morning last
the teachers and scholars of the Catholic Sunday-
School, assembled at their Church, where thev
formed in procession, and, loathe soul-stirring notes
of the drnm and fife, and iwith numerous flags and
appropriate banners, marched to Miller s woods,
above Loudousville, where they spent the day in
innocent and healthful recreation. After all had
enjoyed themselves "to thejr hearts’ content.” they
took up the line of march for “ home, sweet home,”
where they no doubt slept soundly-, and sweetly
dreamed of wild flowers,; bine-birds: and butter
flies. '* - ;
We understand that the public schools of the
East Ward, purpose enjoying themselves in a sim
ilar manner to-day. May joy attend them, and
may .the ever-welcome custom of “Maying” or
“pic-nicking” never be abolished. It not only
gives rest to the many little, minds, which are of
ten severely tasked, but alisd invigorates the body.
The teachers, too, after a Say’s enjoyment in the
woods, are always.better fitted for performing the
duties which devolve updq, them in their noble
calling. We hope to see every school and even
association in the town have a plc-nic during the
present season.
Staging . — One who has recently had some ex
perience in this ancient manper of locomotion pens
ns the following for the information of travelers
Passengers from Tyrone to Bellefonte would do
well to take the Bald Eagle Route, as they will
then be in the care of a good driver, whb don’t go
to sleep, at the risk of your neck or limbs; neither
does he smotewhen sitting'in front of his passen
gers—a good trait in the estimation of the ladies,
many of whom do not relts)i the fumes of a toby
continually blowing in their faces. The teams on
this route are no crow-baits; your:baggage is just
as safe as if in your own .‘care, and there are no
detentions, excepting just time enough to partake
of a splendid dinner at Wes. M’Kinney’s, at Port
Matilda, for which you will only be taxed 23 cts.
The Tyrone office of this line is at the National
Hotel, kept by Mrs. M. A. Ward, who, as every
body knows, keeps one of: the best public houses
in the interior of the State. Passengers and bag
gagte conveyed to and from the depot free of charge.
“A word to the wise is sufficient.”
Major General Sigel.-— A despatch was re
ceived here on Monday evening last, announcing
that Major General Sigej and Col.' Thomas A.
Scott, Assistant Secretary of War, were on the
Express Train Eastward. A-large crowd assent-'
bled at the depot, on the arrival of . the train, all
anxious to get a “ peep” at the hero of Pea'Ridge.
Some of our citizens had procured two small can
non, one of which was placed in the rear of * the
train, and the other in froht. With these a con
stant firing was kept up while the train was wait
ing for the passengers to take supper. By request
the General appeared on the platform of the oars
and made a few appropriate; remarks. He was in
citizens’ dress, and his appearance plainly indicated
that he was in bad health. ;
Caft. Walsh. —-Oar young and esteemed
friend, Capt. Pat. Walsh, of the'gallant Eighty
fourth, who has been on a short visit to his friends
in this place, left on Monday night last to join Ins
regiment (Shields’ Division), which has been or
dered to reinforce Gen. McDowell at Fredericks

Panorama op tue War.— &o doubt an exhi
bition ot this kind would draw crowded houses;
but, in the absence' of such an entertainment, the
heat we'can do is to go to Fettinger's Oak Hall
Literary Emporium and get Harper's Wrtkip and
Frtgik Leslie's Iliustmted Hewftpajter with its IfV
Supftiement. These splendid pictorials give large
and spirited Engravings, together with reliable par
ticulars of all the important batries and brilliant
feats of arms that occur in the present war. Also,
jiortraits and biographical sketches of great men
and Generals,, together with interest ing stories and
comicalities. Go and get a pictorial, if yon want
to he u posted” in regard to. the all-important
events now transpiring in this great country of ours.
Fet, has gone to the city for new goods, and we
believe he intends to select his Fourth-of-July
fixing also. .All the leading dailies, weeklies, and
monthlies, together with an inexhaustible variety
of notions, can be had at Oak Hall.
Beautiful. —The country at this time presents
a really beautiful appearance. The fruit trees are
in full blossom, and the woodland dressed in a
beautiful Emerald green, presents to the eye of the
beholder a scene of magnificent splendor. All na
ture seems td be laughing and clapping her hands
with joy in anticipation of the bountiful harvests
she will soon present to earth’s creation for her
subsistence. The music of the rippling stream as
it wends its way through the green valley and
down the rugged mountain side, thrills the heart of
the listener with rapturous delight. Well may the
poet, whilst admiring the beauties of spring, sing
thus: -
I would not die in spring time.
Kekp Cool. —Header, when you think yon are
reading; an interesting ‘-item.’' and lind that it is
only a ••puff.” don't ‘‘get your hack up” alarm it,
hut try again—read something else, and keep cool.
,VVe have often been “fooled” ourselves, and, al
though we know it is provoking, yet when we re
member that we are writing with one of Joseph 1
DeYoungs platina-pointed, india-rubber-coated
steel pens, we feel like mentioning, for vonr bene
fit, that they can only be had at Andy Clabaugh’s,
corner of Main and Annie streets, Altoona, where
you can also get all kinds of stationery and peri
odicals* all the leading daily ]>aj»ers, and notions,,
in great variety.
“Ciajaning House.” —How we wish this disa
greeable task was finished. The women an* as
cross as old maids, every one of ’em. We get out
of sight whenever we see one coming. {Such tear
ing, pulling,-'hauling, ripping, hallooing, shouting,
cleaning, scrubbing, nibbing until your head aches,
as they have, is enough to turn a “ feller” against
the whole tribe of crinolines. Splash! splash!
from nlornirig to night! and then go to their
conches and dream of white-washed cottages and pa
pered castles. Well, the season will soon lie over,
and the dear creatures will lie us tame as kittens,
so we will have to “grin and bear" for yet a few
davs.
Two Disbanded Regiments. —The 12th and
16th Indiana regiments, Cols. Lynk and Hackle
man, passed through this place on Thursday last,
dn their way home. These troops were enlisted
by Governor Morton for one year, previous to the
President’s proclamation calling for volunteers to
serve during the war, and their time expired on
the 14th inst. Most of the men would have been
willing to continue in the service, and if another
call for troops be made, it is designed to join the
the two regiments info one, and again offer its
services.
Something New. —The rage for illustrated en
velopes has set the tract men to work, and the re
sult of their labors is a new style of engravings
with appropriate mottoes selected from the Bible.
In the package before us there are so many differ
ent varieties that to attempt a minute description
of them would fill a column of our paper. Suffice
it to say, they are suitable to all classes, and are
decidedly handsome. Blair Patton, at the Post
Office, is the agent for this place. Call and see'
them.
Tyrone City Hotel. —This large and com
modious: establishment has again experienced a
change of proprietors. The incoming landlords,
Messrs. Griest & Maclin, have thoroughly refitted
and renovated the house, so that all who mav
favor it with their patronage may be certain of
enjoying: all the comforts and conveniences of a
first-class house. We advise our friends who may
visit Tyrone, to stop at this hotel, and we can as
sure therh they will not go away dissatisfied, either
with the .house or the landlords.
“MisdYocr Eye —Header, when you prome
nade the streets of our borough, mind your eye,
and have an eye to your steps, lest yon might
break your neck, or at least bark your shins. Our
sidewalks, with a few praiseworthy exceptions, are
in a shocking condition just now—in fact they are
really dangerous—but we have faith enough in the
enterprise of the property-holders, to hope that the
present state of affairs may not continue more than
another year.
Flowers.— -Almost everywhere you go—whether
to the woods pr .the cultivated garden—in the mea
dow or on the mountain side—you will now find
the flowers out in full bloom and fragrance. The
wild flowers are especially beautiful and seem to
have more claim upon our attention, as they are
nature's own; but a sweet boquet, whether of tame
or wild flowers, will always cheer the heart of the
primer's devil, and cause his face to shine with
smiles for the lair donor. Girls, remember.
To the Public !—An experience of siimonths
has fully convinced me that the cash system is
the beet, both for merchant and consumer. It ena
bles the merchant to sell at ose-half less pbofit
and make more clear money, with less trouble than
he can by selling on credit ; and the reason is ot>-
vions—he gets the money down for everything he
wants to sell, and has the use of it immediately.—
The consumer also saves by buying for cash, be
cause he gets hU merchandise at from 23 to 60 per
cent, below what he would have to pay if he bought
on credit, or even if he bought at a store which
sells on credit. The credit business always loses a
certain per centage, which must be made up from
cash or prompt monthlypayers.
lam determined to do nothing bnt a CASH
BUSINESS, and have bnt ONE PRICE for mr
Goods. . . 1
I have just returned from the cities of New York
and Philadelphia with the largest and cheapest as
sortment of Goods ever brought to Altoona. I

Black Silks, Ducals, Reps, Fonlaids, Schallies,
Delaines, Poplins, Debeges, Ginghams, Cambrics,
Prints, Brown and Bleached Muslins, Tickings,
Checks, Linens, Table Napkins, Table Diapers,
Gloves, Hosiery. Also, a fine stock of Cassi

A splendid assortment of Boots and Shoes, for
ladies, misses, men and bovs.
A great variety of CARPETS, ranging in price
from 12* cents upward. Oil-Cloths of different
patterns and prices. Window*-Shades, of all styles.
Children’s WAGONS, from $3 .25 upwards.
Spring Wagons only $4.25.
M all Paper and Bordering—a large and entirely
new selection, embracing the latest and most beau

per bolt, upwards. „
GROCERIES.—My stock of Groceries 18 un
surpassed, being entirely fresh. Best Syrup Mo
lasses, only 60 cents per gallon; 2d dags only 50
cents. Sugars at 9, 10, 11 and 11$ cents per lb.
Coffee, Tea, Spices, Salt, Fish, Soap, Candles,
and everything in that line, at Cash Prices.
In the QUEENSWARE line, I have the lar

In the way of GLASSWARE, I have everything
mcntionable, such as Fruit Stands, Cake Stands,

&c.. &c.
I would respectfully invite the public to call and
examine my stock before purchasing elsewhere, as
I feel confident that I can convince them that it is
cheaper to buy for auk than on credit • and also,
that my stock is worth an examination.
