The TWatghman,
TOCA Ls MATTERS.
‘f= It affords us pleasure to announce to
'the ‘public, that the Burnt Mill property,
‘lately known as the Pnoenix property, has
‘dhanged hands. ‘For years the bl-ckened
walls of what was once» ‘beautiful and val-
‘uable mill, have stood upon the outskirts of
our town in apparent mockery ‘of what
should have been the enterprising and pro-
gressive spirit of a comunity ‘th ‘which is
centred so much wealth, but in truth the
hving monument of the real slothful, plod.
ding energy that has so long held her sway:
and ruled with a despotic hand the business
energies of this community.
Bellefonte, blessed as she is with the best
water power of any town in the interior of
the State, and situated as she is, in the
heart of a great agricultural county, whose
hills are filled with the richest minerals
found anywhere in the State : in short, hav-
ing all the facilities and conveniences to
‘make herself one of the greatest manufac-
turing towns in the State, has for ages upon
“agvs steod upon a dead lock. Occasionally
‘a new building, generaily an cight by ten in
‘size, has raised its diminutive comb above
the horizon, the only indication that life
stili lingered within its precincts.
One Flouring mill, two old dilapidated
‘Foundries, and an old Axe factory, the long
‘and continued beating of whose lazy ham
‘mer had shattered its walls, until at Jast its
occupant moved away, and it now stands,
like the “Burnt Mill,” the emblem only of
what it was 1 betterdays. Why Bellefonte
‘has been so slow to improve, is the ‘query
to many. The simple reason has been this :
The water rights and legible sites for man-
‘ufacturing purposes, have all becn owned
'by one ortwo men ‘whose glutted wealth
‘made them feel so very cotafortable, thet
they cared mot ‘about the world around
‘them ; but, resting contented in their cozy
parlors, they could cutisole themselves with
the reflection that we are “Lord of all we
‘survey—all these possessions sre ours,”
‘and, really, judging from the fabulous prie-
‘es they would ask for a little spot of ground
‘and water right enough to turn an old fash
‘ioned coffee mill, they were disposed tokeep
‘all this valuable jroperty. these valuable
‘water powers. unemployed to all eternity.
But at last things are about to ‘eight
‘about face.” The Burnt Mill property is
now owned by Wm. F. Reynolds, who has
got both the will and the enterprise to make
We under.
Stand that he intends at once to rebuild the
‘mill sn better style than ever it was in its
palmiest days. A woolen factory will also
be crected near by, when once more our
ears will be gladdened by the busy rum-
bling of wheels, the buzz of machinery, the
song of the spinning jenny, the clatter of the
loom. ard the ‘“‘pitty.patry, pitty- patty” of
the mill burs. Tt will add new life and vig-
or all around us, and we hope will be the
morning of a new era in the life of Bellefonte
and Centre county.

07 We are surprised and pained to learn
of the sudden death of our old and much re-
spected friend, Mr. Daniel Reighard, of Jer-
sey Shore, He expired at his residence. in
“ that borough, on Sunday evening. the 28th
ult., after an illness of only two days. We
left Jersey Shore on the Friday morning be~
fore his decease. and in bidding him * good-
by,” we certainly did not dream that we
should never look upon his face again. But
that evening he was taken sick, and ere the
close of the Sabbath day, was lying stiffand
cold in the embrace of death. Mr. Reighard
was a truly generous, hospitable and open.
hearted man, and his loss will be most deep-
ly felt by the people of Jersey Shore, of
which community he was, for many years,
an active and influential member. Mr. R.
had been in poor health for some years past
but notwithstanding this, his death was no*
the less unexpected ; and, coming so sud-
deny, will be felt all the more severely by
his bereaved relatives and friends. He
leaves a large and interesting family to
mourn his departure to ‘‘ that bourne
from whence no traveller ever returns.”—
Peace be to his ashes.

To Our SubscriBERS. —Last weck we ‘ens
larzed the Watchman to its original size of
seven columns, and we are vain enou:h to
suppose that we now present our readers
with quite a respectable paper, at least, so
far as its size 1sconcerned. We have to say
this week, however, that those of our sub-
scribers who have not paid anything, or
who are not credited with anything upon
our books, will. after this issue, de stricken
from our books. We have come to the con-
clusion that it won't pay to furnish papers
to a set of men for nothing, and therefore,
those who do not receive any papers after
this week, will not be at a loss io know the
reason why. Hereafter, too, the subserip-
tion price of the Watchman will be One
DOLLAR AND Firry CENTS in advance, and
+ Dew subscriptions will be taken upon any
other terms. We hope our readers will all
bear this in mind.

B57 At the election on Monday last, our
young friend, Mr. W. F. Montgomery, was
elected High Constable of the Borough, a
compliment which, we are happy to say,
could not have been better bestowed. The
selection is a good one in every tespect, and
we feel assured that ** Bill,” as he is famil.
iarly called, will perform the duties of his
appointment with energy and credit. We
hope, however, that, notwithstanding his
blushing henors, he will not feel too eleva-
ted to speak tous ¢ common fellers.” We
believe our friend's majority was forty-six
votes. ‘* Go in,” William.

Tae New Store oF BrowN & Cooke. —
Several visits to this establishment, loca ed
in the room formerly occupied by Martin
Stone, have served to convince us that it is
one of the finest stores in Bellefonte. The
room has been thoroughly repaired and fit
ted up im the best style, and being now com-
pletely stocked with tne most beautiful
goods, presents a very attractive appear
ance. Messrs. Brown & Cooke bave located
themselves permanently in our town, and
from present appearances, we judge they are
bound to do a rushing business. In fact, it
i8 a pleasure to go into their store—so nice,
so clean, so neat is everything. Beng ‘des
termined to sell cheap, and having as fine &
stock of goods, as any in Bellefonte. they
hope to see the citizens of Bellefonte crowd
in to their counters ; and we can assure our
friends that they will not be disappointed in
the quality, or the styles of the goods there
exhibited. Read the advertisement, and
then call and see.

§77 We donot know that Bellefonte is
m'ore than usually unhealthy at the pre ent
tiude, and ‘yet it seems to us that there has
been, within the last two or three weeks,
more thao the usual number of funerals seen
passing thrdugh our streets. We de not
know of any particular disease prevailing
among us, and must, consequently, ascribe
the recent deaths to the ¢ common ills that
flesh is Leir to.” Last Sunday there were
two funerals in our midst, which. we must
say, is rather an uncommon occurrence in
Bellefonte. It would, probably, be well to
remember the lessons taught us by the fre~
quent visits of the death angel to our coms
munity of late, and always keep in our
minds eye, the scriptural injunction that ** In
the midst of life we are in death.”

HorrFeR's STORE ——As we stated some
weeks ago, the Messrs. Hoffer have brought
on a splendid lot of Goods, which are now
open and ready for sale, at their establish-
ment on Main street, next door above the
Conrad House. Their stock consists of ev-
ery conceivable variety of Goods, and if
anybody wants anything, Hoffer's is the
place to go to get it. Messrs. Keller and
Wilson, the gentlemanly and obliging clerks,
‘hever deem it any trouble to shéw their
merchandise to customers. and are always
happy to wkit'on those who may give them
a call.

17 Malicious Mischief— We call the at
tention of the authorities to the fact. that
the store of Mr. McBride on Main street,
and the restaurant of Mr. Stone, on Bishop
street, were this morning found to be daub-
cd all over with eggs, which piece of despi
cable conduct had been perpetrated during
the night, by some person ‘or persons un
known. Such low, mean, miserable con.
duct should be most severely punished by
fine or imprisonment ; for those who can
thus wilfully abuse a man’s property cer
tainly deserve no hing else.

Ax INCIDENT. — A correspondent writing
from near Yorktown, April 23, relates the
following incident : —* Yesterday morning
there was brought into the little chamber of
the log but in which [ now write. a lad of
sixteen, belonging to the 105th Pennsylvania
regiment. He could not walk - could hard
ly speak ; his pulse beat so feebly as to be
scarcely perceptible. His body was chilled
through and through by the rain, by lving
upon the damp earth through that “dreadful
night he had been on picket duty on Sunday
night. The humane doctor of the regiment
looked at him, pronounced him almost gone,
prescribed brandy, tried stimulants, exter
nal and internal, in the hope to produce a
reaction. In an hour and a half the boy
died. His name wasJ G. Trampton, of

Interesting Letter from Gen. Grant.
The Commercial publishes passages [rom
a letter received {rom General Grant, mn re-
ply to a letter informing him of the nature
of the criticism of his management of the
battle of Pittsburg Landing General Grant
says: ‘* I will go on and do my duty to the
very best of my ability, without praise. and
do all I can to bring the war to a speedy
close. I am not an aspirant for anything at
the close of the war.
There is one thing that T feel very well s
sured of, and that is that 1 have the confi
dence of every brave man in my command
Those who showed the white feather wiil do
all in their power to attrics attention from
themselves. 1 had. perhaps, a d zen officers
arrested for cowardice in the first day's
fizht. The men are necessarily my ene:
mies. As to the talk about our being sur
prised, nothing could be more false. [If the
enemy had sent us word where and when
they would attack, tre ceuld not have been
better ‘prepared.
Skirmishing had been ‘£ding on for two
days between onr recofinoitering parties and
‘the enemy’s advance. [did not believe. how-
ever. that they intended to make a deter-
mined attack, bunt simply to make a recon-
nosance in force. My headquarters were
at Savannah, though I usually spent the
day at Pittsburg. Troops were constantly
arriving to be assigned to the dift'rent bri-
gades and div All were ordered to

G.n. Buell and Mrs. Polk.
A Nashville correspondent of the Cincin
nati Gazette says the following is told by
an eye witness of the scene :
One day last week Gen. Bucll and all the
Brigadiers of the Deparrment, who were
present went in a body to call upon Mrs.
James K. Polk and her niece. danghter of
the Ex-Rev. General Leonidas Mrs. Polk
seemed determined that no donbr should be
entertained as to her sentiments in regard
to our unhappy difficalues. ‘T'ha gentlemen
present, as they were sevrally addressed,
simply bowed in silence, until Gen. Mitchell
who was standing somewhar away from the
party, was singled out. To him Mrs P
remarked, “ General, I trust this war will
speeidly terminate by the acknowledgment
of southern endependence.” The remark
was the signel fora lull in the conversation,
and all eyes were turned upon the General
to hear his reply.
He stood with his lips firmly compressed
and his eyes looking fully into those of
Mrs. Polk as long as she spoke. He then
said :
«Madam. the man whose name you bear
was once the President of the U States; ho
was an honest man and a true paviot, he
administered the laws of this Government
with equal justice to all, We know no in
Gependence of one section of our coun try
whic does not belong to all others. and
judging by the past, if the mnte lips of the
honored dead, who lies so near us, could
speak, thev would express to the hope that
this war might never cease, if that cessation
was purchased by the dissolution of the
Union of States over which he once presided.’
It 1s needless to say that the affect was
electrical, made as the remark was in a
calm dignified tone and with that earnest
ness for which the General 18 noted, no off
ence could be taken.

17 Major General Halicck, commanding
the Deparment of the Mississippi, has is
sued a general order, thanking Gens Grant
and Buell and their respective commands,
and oth are assigned to the immediate com
mand of their own armies. The thanks are
tendered for the bravery and endurance with
which they sustained the general attacks of
the enemy on the 6th. and for the heroic
manner in which. on the 7h. they defeated
and routed the entire rebel army. This or~
der is dated on the 13 h inst. a weck after
the battle, and Gen. Halleck must have had
time to inform himself thoronghly concern-
ing the causes of the shameful sarprise on
the morning of the 6:h. While compliment
ing the soldiers of the Great West as having
added new laurels to those which they bad
already won on numerous fie ds, and con
gratalating them on their glorious success,
the comthianding Generdl takes occasion to
impress upon all, officers as well as mn
the necessity of greater discipline ana order
as these, he askerts, are a ential to the
health of tiie Arty, and without them they
cannot jong expect to be victorious, but
with them they can march forwmid to new
tields of honor and glory till this wicked re
beihon is completely crushed out and peace
restored to our cotintry. It seems to us
that the country @1'! réceive with some sur
prise this complete endorsem nt of Gen.
Grant's conduct, coupled with terms of
nighes. commendatio That there was
criminal and excusable careiessness in
peruntiing our troops to be so completely
surprised, no one yet hus ventured to deny,
and we cannot see how tianks can be off: r~
ed to officers and men without some effort
to explain. extenuate, or deny the grave
charges upon which public suntiment has
arfugned Gen. Grant. Rumors have been
rife that he was under arrest. but they were
unfeunded, as he has permission to retain
his command in the ficld. The army and
the country have a richt to know who was
responsible for the lac. of vigilance wnich
occasioned an ignominious route of the best
portion of Gen. Grant's command, until the
umely coming up of Gen. Bueli’'s division
and the co~operation of the flitilla put a
check to Beauregard's advance, before the
night closed in, and drove them back afier
desperate fighting the next day. We have
almost unlimited contidence in Gen. Halleck
but we cannot bring our minds to regard his
reticence on these subjects as treating the
relatives and friends of Grant’s massacred
troops, with the proper degree of considera
tion. — Louisville Journal.
