Per haps, when he ge(S his seat wanned he will do better. When a man acknowledges a child as his own he should be treated as , its lather, even though it should favor some other man. We shall not retort by say ing that John Jones Esq., or “any other man,” writes or suggests the editorials which appear in the Register against Mr. flail, but shall always notice the man who lathers them. To say the least of it, we think the editor of the Register, by making . .a:personal reply, takes a mean advantage of Mr, Hall, by seeking to draw him into a personal controversy, which would do Mr. H. no credit, although he might always be victorious. It is well known that it was not sympa thy for Col. Piper, in his removal from the office of Provoat Marshal of this county, that induced the attacks on Mr. Hall. It was only the pretext, the real couse being a desire to be avenged politically. Neith er was it for the public good, or even the good of the party to which the Register belongs. JK the relations between Mr. H. and the editor of the Register are as friendly as the latter would ha^ ro u , believe, he has a very queer way of sh Jrffffg his friendship: We woudn’t want more than a dozen such at one time. • If the editor of the Register has by, his late course, opened a breach in his party through which hisopponents may slip into the opnnty offices this fall, his friends will know where to throw the blame. The opposition are inclined to make the most ofil, and they would be fools if they didn’t. We expect to see “sum phun.” While if is chnatain-like to return good for evil, we have yet to leam that it is prac tised in politics. Dalicate as we feel about intruding our humble effusions upon the notice of our itignMwl cotemporary, we considered it necessary in this, instance. He can make his next reply to Mr. Hall,or President Lin coln,or Jeff. Davis, or any one else, with out .taking uS down in the least. A word iro the Town Council. — The time of year when we may naturally expect warm weather is approaching, and we suppose no person will dispute with us the feet that our streets and alleys are not nay clean. Indeed, without much exaggera tion, we think the town might be called :- 1 filthy. The streets run with mud, gutters ' and side walks are in many places , filled by ash piles, hogs run at large,and some places, in the very heart of town, the stables and gtt»Kfe yards >r« in so disgustingly filthy a that it is almost impossible for people to live in their dwellings in the neighborhood, owning to the smell and •tencib. We.nall on our Burgess and town Council to immediately meet and pass such ertinanceg, and enforce them too, as will oompel tbeae nuisances to be permanency refeoved and compel residents to keed their clean, to pen up their hogs, if; fiyy" will USfo ■« . . mul hy the USB of lime, &c., endeavour to keepTrotn om . , juidat the alarming 'diseases' so prevent in tlfe country just at this time, and which are, no doubt, in a great measure caused by a neglect of proper sanitaryjneasures. j should also have their ’supervisor • feeu’busy scraping the streets and | tailing the dirt away. Now is the time. yffi ,6lol opr boroughauthorities will not; well known character for zeal and energy ih private life, when they are ' fplljrnn to act for the public good.

R., which we noticed in our last issue as being on trial before Judge Agnew, of the Supreme Court, has been decided. The action was brought to re cover damages alleged by the plaintiff to have been sustained in consequence of de fendant failing to keep the .State Canal in good repair. The plaintiff claimed that the repars to the canal' were not made as required by the Act of Assembly, and hence Ke suffered loss by detention, &c., to the amount of $10,000.: The company ianswered that the canal was under bad re pair when they took possession, and the policy had been to repair gradually, so as inot to interfere with the navigation, and Itffet these repairs have been in pursuance lof the recommendation of competent engi neers, and the outlay exceeded the income !of the canal. After an able and impar itial charge from Judge Agnew, the jury retired and shortly brought in a verdict for : plaintiff of $9,498,60. The Concert. —Our readers will re member that the grand vocal and instru mental concerts, the benefit of the Soldiers’ Aid Sod*, comes off on Wed nesday and evenings next, in the Penn’a R. R. uftjhej. Much time has been devoted wfßterations for this affair, and like all otherthings which our people determine to do, it will be done right. While we can urge attendance on the ground that the entertainments will be worth more than the price of admission, we can appeal still more strongly since the proceeds are to be devoted to the ben efit of our soldiers. This 1 comes home to the heart of every loyal man or woman, and every one who can possibly do so, should purchase a ticket, whether they at tend or not. Let the ladies engaged in the affair be properly supported. They deserve well. Dissolution. —lt will be seen an by adver tisement in another column, that the firm of Murphy & McPike heretofore doing business as merchants in out town, was dissolved on the Bth inst. Mri McPike retains the establishment, and will con duct the business hereafter, and we be speak for him a liberal patronage, not on ly because he ija member of the “art pre sevative of all arts,” but because he is fair dealing and has proved himself worthy of the increased prosperity. The outgoing partner, Mr. Murphy is a very correct business man, and a most clever follow withall, and so long as the “Green Con -nar” bears his name we hope it will be a 80urce~bt prout auo-|.«. ■■parity JU> him.— So, good bye, Murphy & McPike. | Five Feet of Snow Yet. —Don’t look too soon for spring. Wo understand that a certain weather prophet, who is more or less reliable, predicts that there is yet fire feet of snow to fall before spring. Now if this should all come at once, during the present muddy condition of our streets, pe des triaqism would be exceedingly difficult; therefore, our citizens should prepare for any such emergency by immediately pur chasing a stock of groceries and provisions at Fritchoy’s cheap store, comer of Caro line and Virginia streets.

The explosion occurred at about a’quarter of nine o’clock, when the whole force of the establishment, about seven hun dred men, were busily engaged at their work. The boilers, two in number, were known as horrizontal tubular boilers, and were eight feet wide, twelve feet long, nine feet high, with four furnaces, and twenty five horse-power each. They were Situa ted in the centre of a hollow square form ed by the buildings. The one which ex ploded was new, and had only been used some three or four times. At the time of the occurrence there was a pressure of fifty-five pounds of Steam —the boiler hav ing been tested with seventy-five pounds. While everything was apparently pro gressing .with, the utmost satisfaction, the explosion occurred, causing three loud re ports. The air was immedately filled with the flying debris of the establishment, which was scattered in all directions, and large pieces of iron, brass castings, bricks &C.&C., thrown around. Immediately there was one indescribable scene of confusion. The workmen dropped their tools and rushed from the tottering building into the street. The shock was so great as to be experi enced at a great distance. The explosion set fire to the wooden structures, but the firemen were soon on the spot and extin guished the flames. Thg engine house, a structure about 20 feet wide, 12 feet high, 12 feet long, was knocked to atoifis. The boiler alongside of the one that exploded was thrown a number of yards from its position and con siderably damaged. The engine house was a fire proof building, with iron girders and brick arches. The fragments were thrown in all directions, and those who were in the place were instantly killed, ground the boilers everything was one indescriba ble mass of ruins. The exploded boiler 'wm *Mkn4 <• Wa* :SsSaBBt -il but the tom and broken material ot which Cobacco and Cigars, Tobacco and Cigars, it was composed.

The doors of the drawing , Annie Streets, Altoona, rooip were blown off, and not a building on the whole premises escaped without in jury. The force of the explosion can be , imagined when it is stated that a portion , of the iron railing around the Jefferson ; Square, at Fourth and Washington streets, I was broken down by some of the falling i ruins. | When the fact of the explosion and its | magnitude became known through the lo i cal telegragh, the Mayor, Chief Buggies, and a large police force, were soon upon : the spot. They at once placed a guard around the building,, and kept the crowd I but in order that the extent of the damage i might be learned, and those who had been i killed and wounded properly cared for.— J As soon as the explosion occurred, numbers 1 of men were seen rushing out from the establishment with bleeding hands and arms 1 while others more seriously injured were 1 carried out by their fellow workmen The firemen were soon on hand, not on ly with their fire apparatus, but also with their ambulances, with which they convey ed the wounded to their homes and to the hospitals. The alarm and excitement of the good people of the neighborhood was, for sev eral hours, painful and intense. Immedi ately after the explosion, ipen, women and children rushed frantically out of doors and toward the scene of the disaster. Many feared for the welfare of their children, who had just departed for school in the neighborhood, while others momen tarily expected to hear a succession of reports. The lights ot the windows for squares around were more or less shattered. The large windows of St. AlphonSus’ Church were wrecked in a bad manner, and the expense for repairs in many buildings will be heavy. * The large school-house opposite the foundry, on Fifth street, was well filled with women and children at the time of the exploson, and serial concussions shook it to its foundation. The inmates became terri i bly alarmed, and in the rush down stairs a number of little, ones were slightly injur ed and terribly frightened. ' Fortunately the teachers were successful in pacifying the children before many had escaped from the building, and then by conducting an orderly egress, prevented any serious ac- cidents. About eight hundred persons will be thrown out of employment by this sad affair. They are, or soon will be in needy circum stances, and they comprise a large com munity of our most deserving, citizens. — We understand that plans for their relief have been adopted, and they will be aided to almost any extent by the proprietors of the foundry, who are laboring zealously for the welfare of their unfortunate em ployees. The establishment was employed entirely upon work for the Government, which was of prime necessity to it. Work can not be .esumed until the entire building is repaired, and a new set of boilers put in, which operation will occupy some eight 1 weeks in its accomplishment. Paul’s Estimate of Heaven In speaking of the glories of the eternal world, the rapture of the apostle does not escape him as a sally of the imagination, as a thought awakened by a,sudden glance of the object; he does not express himself at random from the sudden impulse of the moment, but in the sober tone of calcula tion. “I reckon,” he saysi, like a man skilled in this Spiritual arithmetic,” “I reckon,” after a due estimate of their com parative value, “that the sufferings'of the present time are not worthy to be compar ed with the glory that shall be revealed.” No man was ever so well qualified to make the. estimate. Of the suffering of the present world he bad shared more largely than any man. Of |the glory that shall be revealed he had a glimpse, grant ed to no other man. He had been caught up into paradise! He had heard the words of God ; and seen the vision of the Almighty, and the result of this privi leged experience was, that he “desired to depart and be with Christ” that he desired to escape from this Valley of tears ; that he was impatient to recover the ce lestial vision, eager to perpetuate .the mo mentary fortaste of the glories of immor tality.—Hannah More.
