Farewell Missionary Meeting.— The meet
ing held in the Methodist Church, in this place,
on Monday evening last, to bid farewell to Bev.
Hcnrv-Mansel, who is about to depart as a mis
.ionarv to India, was an occasion of more than
ordinary interest. Bev. Chenowith, P. E. of the
district, and Revs. Gibson, of Hollidaysburg,
Brads, of ; Huntingdon, Smith, of Lewistbwn,
Moreliead and Honk, of Manor Hill circuit, An
derson siiTLantz, of McVeytown circuit, Evans,
of Birmingham circuit, Sembower, of the Baptist
Church, and Ehrenfeld of the Lutheran Church,
of this place, were present as visiting clergymen.
The exercises were opened by Bev. Sembower
reading the 975th hymn, which having been snng
by the congregation, Bev. Ehrenfeld led in a
prav of much solemnity and feeling, which was
audibly responded to by the ministers and members.
The meeting was then organized by the election
of Rev. Chenowith as President, and Bev. Evans
as Secretary.
The opening address was made by Bev. Spotts
tvood. of this station, and. was an effort of much
beauty of eloquence, and depth of feeling, enlisting'
at once the attention and sympathy of the audi
ence. He contrasted the mission of the soldier
lighting for bis country with that of the soldier of
the cross, now about to enter on a warfare against
idolutty, among the enemies of his banner .and
rebels against the government of Heaven. His
charge to the missionary and his young wife was
delivered in most eloquent language, and bis as
surances of the sympathies and prayers of himself
and this Christian community,-were heartfelt. He
concluded by introducing to the audience Bev.
Henry Mansel, missionary to Inda, under the
aaspiges. of the Missionary Society of the M. E.
Churjdi, of the United States.
Kev.Mansel arose and, with much more self-posses
sion than we had anticipated, addressed the audience
tor some thirty minutes. He referred to what he
considered his unmistakeable call to the missionary
field jn India, to his preparations for the work, and
hopes of success therein. He said that he left his
native land, .with ail its tender lies and prospec
tive pleasures, without a regret, and that he did
not desire the sympathies of his friends on his own
licbalf, but on behalf of the idolatrous people
among whom he was shortly to commence his la
bor of love. He was perfectly resigned to his fate.,
lie had given himself into the hands of his creator,
and was ready and anxious to enter upon his labor
in that far off vineyard. The earnestness of his
manner showed that his heart was in the work be
fore him, and his remarks visibly effected the lagjer
portion of his audience. He has been in this place
bnt a few weeks, and yet so effectually has he won
the affection and confidence’ of the people by- his
amiable deportment, and plain, practical preach
ing, that all are loth to give him the parting hand.
He must be successful in his mission.
The meeting was then agreeably entertained for
a short time, by Bev. Chenowith, who adverted to
"iiat he conceived to be the workings of Provi
dence in opening up to missionary enterprise
heathen lands heretofore closed to the introduction
of the gospel of the Son of God. s He also deliv
ered an appropriate charge to the missionary and
bis wife, and encouraged them by promising diem
»11 necessary 'pucuniary aid and the prayers of the
'■lurch.
The meeting was also addressed by Btfrsl Brads,
Anderson, 1 and Smith, in short hot appropriate
speeches, after which the congregation sang a hymn
'uited to the occasion, and the benediction rwas
pronounced by Rev. Morehead.
Scndat School I’ic Nrc.—>The scholars and
friends of the M. E. Sunday School of this place,
held their annual picnic in Miller’s woods, on
Tuesday last. The day being fine there was a
very large tnm out and everything passed off 'in
the most pleasant manner. Swings were put up
m different places, on which those who felt inclined
enjoyed themselves, A variety of innoiceQt
Purees of amusement were devised and entered
into with spirit. The refreshments were excellent,
hat while we partook of them we could hot help
wishing that our share was bread and water, and
that what was spread before ns could at that hour
■wre been spread. before our sick and wounded
soldiers. We do not reflect on those who so bdnn
ttmlly provided for the occasion, but we would
hke to chronicle equal bounty toward the defenders
nt the Stars and Stripes.

Military Vwit.-—On Friday evening last, the
Thompson Sides, a militaiy company composed of
the employees in the Wezt Philadelphia car shop,
of the Pennsylvania Hail Hoad, arrived in this
place on a visit to the employees in tlie Altoona
shops. The company nnmbeted abont seventy
men, and was accompanied byanexcellent brass
band and drum corps. Their uniform is dark gray,
trimmed with green cord, riotygahdily, rendering
it suitable for an every day as ;well as a military
ilress. On their arrival: they were met at the de
pot by a committee and escorted to quarters in the
Logan House. About nine o'clock, it being moon
light, they favored our citizens with a street parade,
marching through several of the principol thorough
fiires.
On Saturday morning they again made a street
parade, and at about nine o’clock took cars for
an excursion over the mountain • to Creason. At
this point they gave the people an exhibition of
ride drill, and the band performed several airs.—
Embarking again, they iretumed slowly down the v
mountain, all an opportunity to enjoy the
beautiful scenery here presented to the eye. All
expressed themselves highly delighted with their
trip.
In the afternoon a pic-nic was held in McCart
ney’s woods, adjoining West Ward, at which there
was a large Collection of the youth and beauty of
this mountain city, and a plentiful supply of re
freshments. There being a stajge on the ground,
undßolef’s String Band having been engaged for
the occasion, quite a number joined in the giddy
maze of the dance, which was kept np until sun
down. Here, again, the visitors expressed them
selves highly delighted with the treatment they
were receiving.
In the evening a grand supper was served up
for them at the Altoona House, where Col. Woods,
that excellent caterer for fastidious tastes, almost
outdone himself, and succeeded in furnishing a re
past fit for kings. Mirth, wit, sentiment, and pa
triotic speeches and toastes ruled the banquet, and
not until a late hour did the party break up.
The company remained in town until Sunday
evening. A large portion of them attended divine
service in the Presbyterian Church, on Sunday
morning. They were a well-behaved and gentle
manly company of men, such as pur citizens felt
themselves honored to, welcome; and we but
express the sentiments Of every member of the
company when we say tlyat they were never treated
better in their lives. ; The fact is. the employees in
Altoona know how to put things through in Ibis
iinq, and always treat their friends in a style they
heed Wot be ashamed of.
We tender the committee our thanks for their
kind invitation to participate at the pic-nic and
sapper, bat previous engagements prevented our
acceptance. '
Extensive Caning Affair. —When a man
meets with a misfortune he feels some consolation
on discovering that there are others equally unfortu
nate. A man can take a thrashing with a better
grace when he knows, that the man who is thrash
ing him has thrashed his betters. But when a
man undertakes to cone us, and some eight or ten
of our subscribers at the same time, and success
fully accomplishes his purpose, we don't feel that
we come under the head of either of the above
cases. That we were caned, we admit; but there
are some extenuating circumstances which go to
show that we could not help it, and that the man
who did it was able to do it scientifically. “ The
facts in the case,” as reporters say, were these:—
On Friday morning lost, the Express Agent came
into onr office with a small package in one band
and a coffee sack done up full of something in the
other. Well, we paid him the expressage -on the
package which we had otdered and were expecting,
whereupon, without any provocation on *bur part,
or any words on his, ho quickly threw down the
coffee sack bundle and—and—and walked out.—
Here was a dilema. What did he mean? We
examined the directions pn the bundle. They
read “McCrnm & Dern, ‘Tribune’ Office, Altoo
na.” “Free, from Port Royal, Si C.” An “in
fernal machine” from Secessia, thought we.—
“ Nothing ventured—nothing won.” So we ripped
open the sack and ont rolled a dozen of orange
wood canes, directed to the editors of the Tribune
and several other citizens of the town, presents
from Captain Henry Wayne, of Company A, 74th
Beg’t Pa. Vols. We have been requested by the
recipients of the canes to retard thanks to the
the Captain for his kind remembrance of them and
for his very welcome and much prized present, and
should he live to return, which we all hope, he will
meet with a hearty reception from all who cany
knotty canes. Long live the Captain.
Cut. Ceozier, —On Saturday last we had the
pleasure of meeting the above named gentleman.
Bis wounds are not so-serious as at first reported,
although they have been sufficient to reduce him
considerably. He was shot through the right fore
arm and side, making ,a flesh wound in his arm
and fracturing two of his ribs. He reports that he
is rapidly recovering and expects soon again to
take bis place on the field. We always expected
a good report of Company M, should it have an
opportunity to give the rebels a specimen of rifle
drill, and are pleased to learn that those of the
company who were in the fight did their duty
nobly, but aye truly sorry that the Captain should
have received such an; unlucky, demonstration of
the drilling powers of rebel balU- We hope for
his speedy restoration to health.
While puffing, perspiring mid ' poring over
the proof sheets of last edition, “oh-ing” “fora

Altoona. Yon may believe we -did itTunplejns

Mr. H, and family, as also Dr. Rundio and family,
who lived in part of the house, barely escaped with

toils, racking onr brain to get up something ac
ceptable to out readers, and not knowing whether
onr efforts shall he commended or condemned, it
is pleasant to have a friend pop in with a magnifi

last, by, David M. Green. jWe have received a

47 Who that has ever traveled in the care has
not been annoyed, more or less, with the slanting
of the car door and the newsboys’ stentorian cry of
“ Ledgar,” “’erald,” “Tribune,” “Press,” “Times,”
“ Inquirer, ” etc. In these exciting war times it is
a luxury to get the latest, which can alwavs be

These Cana and Jars, being perfectly simple in their ar

THEY POSSESS THE FOLLOWING ADVANTAGES:
Ist. All that is required after the fruit has been
hot, IS simply to screw the top down tightly. ”
2d. They can be opened by a single turn of the cover,
ami the contents taken out in one-fourth the time required
by other cans. ■ ■ ■
' ,3d. Besides their simpl'city und ease of adjustment, and
itnpoesibll Ity of stoppers blowing ont, they show at all times
the exact condition of the fruit, by simply looking at the
top of the cover; if the gum is concave the fruit is good
if convex, the fruit is going to spoil, but will always show
■ itself in time to s»e saved.

CASE OF DANIEL A. BOYD.
' PlirsxoaoH, December SI, last.
D». O. H. Kxrsxa pleasure In miking this vol
untary statement in favor of a medicine prepared by you
called “ Jinan’s Bums SiAaoaxa.” I bad raftered for
fire yean with Scrofula which broke ont on my bead and
forehead so as to disfigure me very much, and took oft thy
hair when the disease made its appearance; it also broke ont
on my arm above and below the elbow, and eel into the
skin and flesh so as to expose a fearful sore. The disease
on my head went so far that several small pieces of bone
came ont. I was very week and low spirited, and had
given up all hope of ever getting well, as I had tried sev
eral skillful physicians and they did me no good. In Sep
tember last, 1861,1 was induced to try Lnosii's iM
paovxn Blood Bzaacsxa.” I must confess I had no faith
in patent medicines, but after I had used three bottles ol
Blood Searcher, the nioen on my head and arm began to
heal. I have now taken eight or ten bottles, and my bear)
and arm are entirely well except the scan remaining from
the sores. I will also state that I had the rheumatism
very bad in my arms and legs. The Blood Searcher also
cured the rheumatism. lam now- a well man, over forty
years of age, and X feel as raple and young as I did when
1 waa twenty, and have increased in weight twenty pounds.
1 would also state that the disease in my foreheard was so
bad that when I stooped and lifted anything heavy, the
blood runout of the sore. Dr. Keyser had a photograph
taken oi me by Mr. Cargo, the artist, after I began to get
well. It does not show my appearance as bad as it wns
before I commenced taking the medicine. Yon can see
the photograph, one of which is now in my possession
and also at Dr. Keysets 140 Wood street. I would also
state that 1 took tho Blood Searcher which was made be
fore Dr. Keyser commenced making it. Although it
helped me some, I did not recover first until I got the kind
made by Dr. Keyser himself One bottle of his did me
motto good than two of the old. 1 believe it is a great deal
stronger and better. I have- recommended the Blood
Searcher to a great many of my (Heuds for various dis
eases, and I believe it has helped the whole of them. You
may publish'this if you wish, and I am anxious that all
who are afflicted as I waa may be cured. Hive in this city.
No. 4 Pine street, and am employed at GoHville A Ander

A BLIND MAN CUBED.
I live in Sligo, at Clinton Mill, and have been nearly
blind in both eyes for nearly (bar yean. I called on Dr.
Keyset about three months ago and asked him to give me
directions to the Institution for the Blind
He told ms that I need not go to Philadelphia to get well,
os he hod medicine that would cure me, as he said my dis
ease was in the blood. I was treated for- it two or three
times lb the hospital in this city, apd was relieved, but
my disease always returned after a month or two after I
came out of the hospital. I fonnd .my ‘tOfr* was- re
turning and 1 called, by the advice of a good friend of
mine, on Dr. Keyser, who has restored my sight, and my
eyes are nearly aa well as ever. The Doctor gave me
‘ Lindsey’s Blood Searcher” and a wash.

A BAD 80BE LEG CUBED.
PIRTBUaoH, September M, 1881.—I hereby certify that
I have had a sore leg for over a year. It was covered
with ulcers and sores so that 1 could not work for nearly
s year. My leg swelled so that 1 was nnabU to do any
thing for a long time, for at least six months. I tried
several of the best doctors in the city, but without any
benefit; finally I called on Dr. Keyser, at No. 140 Wood
street, who only attended me about two weeks, and gave
me but two bottles of medicine, and I am how entirely
well and base confined so for six months. I ora employed
at the Eagle Engine'Mouse, on Fourth where any
