1- i, not often that spring elections receive more
than a massing notice, from the tact that hut little
importance is attached to them, and in many cases
dial little, importance is not political. Our inten
tion. in referring to the result, as given above, is
not to find fault, or show how other results might
have been secured, but to cal! attention to some-
thin:: which, to us. seems very much like incon-
siatenev.
All wijl remember that at our last general elec
nun there was an Independent Democratic candi
date for Sheriff, for whom the svmpathies and
,otes of the people were solicited oh the ground
that he had been a soldier and fought and suffered
for liis country. His claim was recognized, and
;,‘,e Republicans, dropping their own candidate (a
woriliv man-r-but he had not‘been a soldier), voted
fur the soldier candidate and elected him by a
handsome majority, while the majority against
‘us partT was from 400 to6oo. Perfectly right.—
Those who peril their lives in defence of their
ruuntrv are entitled to, and should receive, the
uthev-s for which they are qualified.
A: uur late spring election Capt. John M. Clark,
n veteran/ who served his country faithfully for
thru years and three months, most of the time
fightrv: with the Penna. Reserves, as an Inde
pendent Republican candidate asked the office of
Borough Constable, a position equal, so. far as the
emoluments of the office are concerned, to County
■sheriff’. Did he get it ? Look above find you
will discover that the Democratic candidate has
the majority. Those who urged Republicans to
vote fof the independent candidate for Sheriff last
fall, because he was a soldier, could have elected
Cap:. Clark, who was also a veteran soldier. Did
thev do it ? Not quite. A number of Democrats
did vote for Capt. Clark, thus making good their
professions, but a number of those who, last, fall,
wen- loudest in their professions of attachment to
soldier candidates, and were most earnest in per
suading others to help the soldier, did not vote for
the soldier for Constable. Are we not right in
stj ling such nets inconsistent ?
We mac be told that there were Republicans,
who have made, and still make, :the loudest pro
fessions of attachment to the soldier, who worked
agios’ Capt. Clark, and voted against him. We
believe this to be true. We know that Enough,of
them voted against him to defeat him. If they
can reconcile their actions with their professions,
it will be more than any Democrat or Republican
we have vet met has been able to do.
The Anniversary.— The Anniversary of the
M. K. Sunday School Missionary Society, held on
Sabbath'‘hist, was a decided success. Ucv. W. W.
Hicks, of Bellefonte Station, late Missionary to
India, was present and preached morning and
evening, and addressed the Society 1 at the meeting
in the afternoon. Considerable interest was man
ifested in the collections of the classes rtf the Sab
bath School, and when all hud paid in, it was
J‘*und that they had collected the sum of $196
•luring the past month. According to an arrange
ment of the Society one-half the collections go in
to the Missionary treasury, and the other half is
applied to the purchase of books, &c., for the
Th e collections of the Society for the
Ve: ‘- r * ami the collection taken up in the church on
>ab'-ath morning, foots up about $350 for mis
n irv purposes and $215 for Sunday School pnr-
us the contribution of the station for-the
pre-i-m year. The seimons of Rev. Hicks, ipom
'"r anil evening, and his address before tlie Soicic
in the afternoon, were highly creditable, elici-

Sißiont Accident. —OnFriday afternoon, the
i’hiiadelphia Express West, which was some seven
tuurs behind time, met with an accident about
'me mile West of Lilly's station, caused by .a
broken rail, which precipitated three cars over a
embankment. Notwithstanding ,the cars
were completely demolished, only two passengers,
named bright and Kohn, ot Philadelphia, were
killed, and four persons slightly injured. Those
"ho were injured were/brought to the Logan
Moose, in this, place, and‘will, by Monday next; be
&!, ie to proceed to their homes;
The above report will appear quite in contrast
with the reports in circulation, yesterday evening
and this morning. We have bur report from those
who know all the particulars, j. The previous re
ports in circulation only go to show how fast a
=tnall report may grow while passing hurriedly
from lip to car.
Iscgeasiso—The popularity and patronage of
Ivms & Postlewait’s National Grocery, on Virginia
street. This is owing partly to the merits of the
iLstuutioni end partly to the use oi printers’ ink.
Americas Life Imijbascb aid Tncst Com
pact.—This is dtecidedly the mutt healthy insti
tntion of the kind in this country—we mean
financially, of course. The poliiie* issued during
the past year far exceed those;of any previous
year, evidencing increased confidence in the relia
bility of the institution. To give an idea of the
business the Company baa been doing, during the
post year, we take the following from the
repons of the Company for the; years 1863 and
1864.
The receipt* of the Company for the
year 1803,: from all source,-, pre-
iiiium, rents, interest, etc., were
Disbursements for same period,
Leaving a balance, Ist Jan., ’64, o£ 50,798 90
The receipts from tbe same sources
•for the year 1864, were
Disbursements for same period,
Leaving a balance, Ist Jan., ’65, of 177,878 95
From which deduct balance Jan. Ist, .
1864,
Leaves the increase for the yejr
.1864 over that ol 1863,
From the above it will be seen -that while the
receipts of the Company increased $154,400 33
doting the year 1801, the expenses for tlip same
period,increased only $37,379 26—leaving, as we
have figured out,above, a clear surplus of $127,-
080 05.
On the Ist of January the Company had $966,-
461 79 invested in bonds and stocks of reliable
and dividend-paying institutions. This amount
far exceeds the liabilities of the Company, and has
enabled it to declare a dividend of 50 per cent, on
the income of the past year. This, per nemage
pays the one-half of the premiums <or the present
year, of those insured oh mutual policies.

As an investment for surplus money, (and, in
fact;: for money not surplus,) which provident men
may wish to secure to their families in ease of
death, this is certainly otie of the safest and best
institutions in which to deposit a small sum annu
ally. No other Company pays a larger per rent
age on the amount paid in.
R. A. O. Kkbk, of this place, is agent for the
Company, and will give all necessary information
upon application either personally or by letter.
Ouitdabt. —Died, on board the Gunboat New
Ironsides, near Fortress Monroe, Jotra J. Hut
chison, son of James Hutchison, Esq., of Eldora
do, Blair county, Pa.
Having been drafted last summer, and tecling
that he conljd not endure the hardship* and cxjio
sures of he paid his commutation money,
and then, in the firm conviction that iris '-.u iury
needed hi> services, and that Providence had fail
ed him to go. he went to Philadelphia and enlisted
in the Navy, August 4th, 1&64. He fr- went on
board the U- S. steamer Princeton, whore In- re
mained until August 22d, when he was transferred
to the Ironsides ; and in the recent attack on Fort
Fisher. ifPwliicli that vessel bore a conspicuous
pan, he was placed in command of Gun No. 1,
and remained at his post, witfi heroic courage,
during the whole of that tremendous struggle.—
When, at length, the bombardment hud ceas*-d,
hji was obliged logo below ami take to his li il,
bn; had the satisfaction soon after of hearing that
the flag he loved so well was waving in triumph
over the devoted Fort. His condition, however,
nmv became gradually worse, until, ■ n the morn
ing of the 20th ultimo, he expired, in the twenty
fourth year of his age. His remains were tempo
rarily interred, with military honors, in the Ceme
tery near Fortress Monroe But trom thence they
were subsequently brought home and deposited in
the fan|ily burying ground, near his father’s resi
dence, fill lowed by a large concourse of sorrowing
friends and neighbors! He was a member of the
PreshyteriatriChurch, having early given his heart
to God, and made a public profession of religion.
He died as he had lived, in the hope of acceptance
and salvation, through the atoning merits of a
crucified Savior. And we hare reason to think
he is now with that Savior in the Heavenly World,
enjoying the full fruition of a blessed immortality.
‘‘And 1 heard a voice from heaven saying unto
me ; Write—Blessed are the dead which die in the
Lord from henceforth t Yea, saltlf the Spirit, that
they may rest from their labors; and their works
do follow them.” —Her. xtv., 16.
Uespect ;to ah Eskmt.—While one of the
trains which conveyed the: rebel prisoners East,
during the present week, stopped at thi ■ place, one
of their number, who had died in the cara’aftcr
leaving Pittsburgh, was carried out and laid down
on the track. The cpq>se was taken in charge by
some of our humane citizens, a coffin procured,
and the remains of the poor unfortunate was, by
those, whom he, in life, supposed his enetnit s. de
cently interred. What a contrast between the ac
tions of the jienple North and South. Would the
: people of any Southern town have paid the same
respect to tlnJ remains of a Union soldier left with
them ? We have yet to hear of such a case, and
the history-of their actionsand treatment of Union
soldiers, dead or alive, forbids the supposition that
they would have given them any attention. Our
people did no more than their duty, and it is not
so much to commend them, asfo put the item on
record for future reference, that wo make a note
of it.

Branching Oct.—We are always pleased to
note the prosperity of enterprising business men,
and it therefore gives us satisfaction to note that
J. H. Moore, of Hollidaysburg, first known as the
match man, now known as the proprietor of sever
al notion wagons, lias entered into partnership, in
Philadelphia, with B. K. Jameson, dealer in fancy
goods, hosieiy, notions, trimmings, 4c., which
gives him the advantage of getting his goods at
lower rates. He intends to keep all his wagons
running as usual, and may add to their number.
Moore is an enterprising and good business man,
and in thus obtaining an interest,in a Philadelphia
house, lie will be able to sell his notions at lower
prices than heretofore. The business place of the
■new firm is No. 40;'. Market street, 3d door from
Fourth street, north side. He solicits a visit from
the merchants in this section.
Orsnas. —Bivalves, this season, hare reached
a figure slighth-in advance of those not blessed
with plethoric purses. When the figures are so
high of course you want a good article, and this
von can always find at Jake Weis’ saloon. We
have indulged in the luxury frequently, in “days
lang syne,’’ and profess to be judges of the quality
of the article, and we pronounce those set before
us hv Jake, a few evenings since, to be the best in
the market. Go to Jake's if you want good oys
ters, confectioneries, etc;, and yon will find all in
abundance and perfection.
Horses Stolen and Recovered.— On Friday
night last same person or persons stole two horses
from the stable of Oliver Haggerty, residing a short
distance below town. At first he thought that
they had been stolen by regular horse thieves, but
on finding them, on Saturday evening, in the vi
cinity of Tipton, it was supposed that some persons
from that locality had been either in this place or
Hollidaysburg, and, starting to walk home, got
tired, and took the horses to ride part of the way,
and then turned them loose.
