IJcmocratic Meeting.— The Democratic meet
nw. on .Saturday evening last, wits very creditable,
;;i ]«init ol numbers, and like all such collections,
irevious to election, was “very enthusiastic.’ -
fiie Hollidaysbnrg train, consisting of some six or
■erea ears, was well filled, and quite a number came
::iini points down the road. The Altoona 1 Brass
was engaged for the occesion. At about
!i ill-past seven o’clock the meeting opened ; at the
■ iwsing of Virginia; and Julia street. After the
■lei tion of officers, (we have not been furnished
'iili a list) Cbus. j. Ingersoll, of Philadelphia,
was introduced to the andiance. His theme was
'if "eizure of the Hailroads andTolegrapliS;by the
I’n-sidcnt. ; in case of necessity, the enormous
■ lxcs, the conscription, &e. Speeches were also
wh- by W. A. Wallace, Ksq., of Clearfield, B,
■ s - Johnson and Philip S. Noon, Esqrs., of Eb
nsbnrg. With the exceptions of some rowdyism on
i part of a portion of the Hqllidayshnrg crowd,
1 vervihing passed oft’in the most orderly manner.
It has been currently reported that the
-wind Army of the Potomac is again on the move.
T'.iisds very cheering at this time, for we feel con-
that under the leadership of the gallant
Meade it will lie victorious wherever he mar lead,
and we may yet have the pleasure of recording
in oin jiaper, ere tins year has passed, the capture
nf the Capitol of the would-be Confederacy.—
lint in the meantime our citizens should not lid
iimimdt'ul of the fact that oar friend' Mr. A.
Uoush, Druggist, has lately received a splendid
lot of nww goods consisting of drugs and medi-
of the best qualities, and notions of oil kinds,

There is no Institution W learning in the country,
at present, attracting so great an iimounc of atten
tion us this. Students are tjoCking to it from all
|wrts of the country, on account of the reputation
it has among business men for making thorough,,
practical aild reliable accountants. '
Its graduate* take precedence over those of all
other Commercial Schools; a Ifiploma from flits
College being a certain pussjior*. to success in husi-'
ness life.
The Facility is composed of skillful and experi
enced men, who stand at the head of their profes
sion, .and who ate well known to be eminently
fitted for the positions theyi occupy. Every young
man in the country should try to avail himself of
the advantages atlbrded bya course of study in this
College. Circulars of the College, containing full
information, can be had on addressing thp Princi

Ladies, A Word with You. —Eevev body
has seen those summer bonnets you have been
wearing, and'they no longer create a sensation
when you appear ,iu public, and, besides, the color
and trimmings have laded, and they are no more
** loves of bonnets," such as you 'would appear in.
Now, a word aside, the Misses Hickey have just
received their stock of fall bonnets, and, oh!
they are so pretty, and so becoming, and they can
trim them up so neatly, and make you appear so
pretty, and so captivating. Hush in at ojiee and
see how many of you can get new bonnets before
next Sunday.
AccniKST AT Mint us.—The Fast Train East,
on Thursday morning last, ran into the rear end
of a freight train, in coucerfuenee of the breaking
of a lever which controlled the breaks of the
passenger train. Jesse AI. Fizzle, of Harrisburg,
Fireman of the passenger engine was killed, and
Philip Lowe, Engineer, was badly, injured, hav
ing one foot mashed and being held on the engine
in close proximity to escaping steam. The Bag
gage Alaster was somewhat bruised by trunks
which fell on him. No pasileugers were injured.
Go- a-Heahativexess.—A spirit uf goahead
ativeness appears to have seized a number - of our
business men this fall, and they arc striking
right out into d&p water, determined to fathom
it. Among them we find that excellent “night
of thd shears,” T)ios. Elway, who has just been to
the East and purchased a heavy stock of all styles
of goods for gents clothing, and he is now pre
pared to make up his clothes in the best and latest
styles and at the very Ipwest living percentage on
first cost. Call and examine his stock.
