STAWBERRY FESTIVAL.—The ladies of
the Episcopal Church held a strawberry
Festival in Mrs. Irvin's new store room,
on last Thursday evening, the 17th inst.
It was well attended, and we are happy
to learn, a success.
FAnx ron SALE.—Persons desiring to
purchase a first rate farm,should call at,
once, at the REPUBLICAN office, or upon
Bond Valentine, Esq. This farm con
tains about 195 acres, forty acres of
which are meadow. The buildings—
house, barn and out-buildings—are all
the very best. It is located about
miles from Bellefonte. There is a great
bargain in this farm. Farmers desiring
a first class farm, should call and see it.
Terms easy.
MERIT.—We believe in rewarding true
merit wherever found. There is a di
versity of talent among mankind. Some
possess five, some four, some two and
others but ono talent.. It is an estab
lished principle that every man should
make good use of the talent bestowed
upon him. Some use their talent as law
yers, doctors or farmers; but our young
friend, and faithful ex-soldier, G. W.
Welsh, employs his as a butcher and
general superintendent of Jesse Morgan's
first-class meet market. Mr. Welsh is a
good citizen, and worthy the confidence
of the community. May success attend
him.
NEW 11TDRANT.—Ourfellow townsman
and esteemed friend, D. I. Pruner, Esq.,
has invented a new hydrant that surpas
ses anything of the kind, both in its
simplicity and - excellence, that We have
ever seen. It can be put up for $8 or
$lO, iCSE than half the price of the old
ones now in use in this city, and it. is so
constructed that, with fair play, the
longer it is in use, the stronger And bet
ter it becomes. The Squire is now at
work, with his inventive genius, on a
self-coupler for railroad cars. We can
not describe it; but we are satisfied he wilt
succeed, and that his "coupler" will
prove a success. At - least, this is our
hope.
INsunANcE.—C. R. Gearhart, travel
ing Fire Insurance Agent, solicitor for
the Farmer's Insurance Company of
Danville, Pa , and the Farmer's Fire and
Live-stock Insurance Companies of York,
Pa. Alvo for the Wyoming Insurance
Company of Wilkesharre, Pa. Mr. Gear
hart is-a reliable and energetic young
man, and represents Insurance Compa
nies, which are safe, prompt to pay loss
es, and always reliable. Every body
should insure their property in some
good company. Persons desiring Insu
rance in the above companies will have
the same promptly attended to by ad
dressing C. IL Gearhart, at Bellefonte,
Pa. We take pleasure in recommending
Mr. Gearhart to our readers and friends.
NEWS MICHIGAN.—We received a lei.:
ter, a few days ago, from cur old friend,
Henry Q. Blair, Constantine, St. Joseph
county, Michigan. We give an extract,
thinking that it may be of interest to
many of our readers.. Mr. Blair moved
from this county to Michigan several
years ago, and now says that "he is do
ing well, and likes that State first rate,"
Speaking of the crops, he says: " The
wheat, rye and oats are going to be very
heavy, and the grass crop will be ex
ceedingly good. The corn is small, the
weather having been too cold for it. Nye
have had a very cold, wet and backward
Spring . Fruit, such as apples, peaches,
pears, plumbs, cherries, in fact, fruit of
all kinds will be plenty. Times are good
here, and the prospects of peace and
plenty make every person cheerful."
We hope to hear from our friend of
ten.
NEW 800 .—"Sunshine and Shadow
in New York," is the title of a• new book
just published by J. B. Burr, and com
pany, Hartford, Conn. It is well print
ed, and contains a large number of very
fine engravings. It is a book that every
person can read; indeed, it is a book that
old and young of both sexes should read.
The author says: "My purpose in
this book has hsen to draw the Great
Metropolis, with its lights and shades,
in a series of graphic papers—to sketch
New York as I have seen it. From origi
nal and reliable sources; I have drawn
my information and material for these
sketches. I have selected representa
tive men, and have attempted fairly to
present their characteristics, and usual
ly, as their friends would wish to see
them. Of things and places, I have
drawn from my own knowledge, or ob
servation." Sold only by subscription.
• Fran CIA - T.—We have just been shown
a specimen of fire clay, taken from an
inexaustable bed of the same kind, on
Sandy Ridge, belonging to J. Miller &
Son, This company, we understand,
have commenced • operations, and are
making fire-brick, of a very superior
quality, by the million. The character
of these brick have already become so
notorious that orders are being sent from
different States. Car loads have peen
shipped over seven hundied miles.—
Messrs. Miller 8,-, Son are very . enter
prising and de s erving men, and are re
alizing a:fortune out of lands which, a
few years ago, were consacfered almost
worthless. Centre county is now (har
ing her copperhead politics) one of the
most wealthy and respectable counties
in the State. What will she be when
her iron, coal, clay and other mines are
fully developed, and her politics redeem

A SINGULAR PROPOSITION.—Dr. Sane
has undoubtedly discovered a perfect
specific for Catarrh, judging from the
universal satisfaction and approbation
which we hear expressed by several per
sons who have used it. It. V. Pierce,
M. D., of Buffalo, N. Y., the proprietor,
as willbe seenby reference to our adver
tising columns, has so much confidence
;`:in the Remedy, as to offer a standing re
ward of $5OO for aease of Catarrh that
he cannot cure. The remedy is said to
be very mild and pleasant to use. It may
be procured by enclosing sixty cents to
the proprietor, or of any Druggist in the
land.—Toledo Blade.
GLASS FRONT.—Graham & Son, Manu
facturers of Boots and Shoes, have given
additional evidence of their enterprise,.
by taring out the old and putting a new
Glass front in their store. The new
front is indeed beautiful. The nice large
clear glass in the windows, was manu
factured by Jacob V. Thomas, Bro. &
Co , at the Bellefonte Glass works. Gra
ham & Son, have an excellent stock of
Boots and shoes which they offer very
low. They do business in a fair, open,
upright manner,and their new glass front
gives them additional light and comfort.
While they are feeling good over this
improvement, the people should avail
themselves of this opportunity, to pur
chase their needed supply of Boots and
shoes. ]f you want a good bargain, go
at - a man when he is in a good humor.
ABOUT ADVERTISEMENTS.—Do not fail
to read advertisements. Thdperson who
takes a newspaper now-a-days, and ne
glects to read over the advertisements.
is apt to lose much valuable information.
The advertising patronage of a paper in
dicates not only the enterprise of the
city and county where it is published,
but it is also an infallible proof that the
business men are possessed of vim and
goaheadativeness. Show us a business
community who don't advertise, and
we'll show you a community where busi
ness is stagnated. The man who adver
tises in a liberal, yet discreet manner, is
sure to take the lead of his neighbor who
don't spend a cent for printer's ink. It
is also conceded that the man who ad
vertises, keeps a larger, better and more
complete stock of goods, and sells them
cheaper than the man who don't adver
tise. If you want good bargair, call
on the man who advertises.
ALL itiGllT.—The enterprising firm of
George ,S; - . Joe P. Blymyer, at Milroy,
Mifflin county, Pa ,is still 0. K. The
Messrs. 813-niger spare no pains to ac
commodate their customers, and more
over they are not too penurious to pay
the printer for advertising. They be
lieve in primers ink, and they use it.—
The result is seen in their business. Ev
ery year, or two at least, they buy anew
farm or a large mill property. Only a
few weeks ego they purchased the Lew
istown Mills (formerly known as Ster
rett's), for the handsome sum of $35,000.
What old fogy will say, in the face of all
these facts,t hat.advertising "don'tpay,"
or that it is no use, "the people all know
me." if our readers will observe, these
old fogy business men do not buy much
mill property, nor do they Bell many
goods, and - what is more, they do not de
serve any better treatment. They do not
deserve to be patronized. Blymyer S Co.,
are live men—true men.
BUY YOUR. GOODS AT IlomE.—The
Jamestown (N. Y.) Journal denounces a
prominent citizen and politician of that
place for purchasing a handsome family
carriage in the east, when be could have
bought a vehicle or equal beauty; style
and durability at home, and truly says
that the obligation to patronize home
industry is incumbent on all good citi
zens; it is especially so in the case of a
public man, whose example to others,
and patronage, are valuable as an ad
vertisement to the artisans of whom be
purchases. It is a mistaken policy that
goes abroad to trade, even though there
is a small saving in dollars and cents—
whether that policy be adopted by a pri
vate citizen or a public functionary.
This is the true doctrine, and our peo
ple should make it a point to purchase,
if possible, every thing they need, at
home. If you want a good carriage,good
buggy, or a good spring-wagon, you can
be accommodated, both in style and
price, by calling upon Messrs. &hirer &
Williams, at the Milesburg carriage
works. See advertisement.

Mn. Enrron am a traveling Agent;
and, in order to find out the names and
whereabouts of men in the different towns
I visit, I generally consult the county
papers. Happening to step off the train
at the Milesburg station, I procured one
of your papers to ascertain the names of
the various mercantile. men of that
beautiful little town. ' After perusing
the paper with eagerness, I was aston
ished not to find at least the notice of
one of the many mercantile men of that
town. I tried to conjecture the cause,
and asked myself the question, is it pos
sible that the mercantile business of the
town is so poor as not to justify the mer
chants in advert ising,or is it penury and
tight-fisted stinginess? Perhaps if
I had taken the pains to visit thefences,
or some dilapidated shop, I might have
found a poster bearing the information'
desired. But, with one exception. no
such information is found in the public
prints of the county; and yet I am told
that some of the merchants of that town
are doing a lucrative business in the
mercantile line., It being impossible to
visit the residences of gentlemen, with
out, at host, a formal invitation, I was
almost induced to pass by; but, on visit
ing the place, I found some seven stores,
including a drug store, doing a, business
sufficient to justify them in sustaining
business directory filling, at 'least, two
columns of your.interestiug paper, and
yet. the people in other parts of the
county would not know from the public
prints, that there was a store in all the
town. Mercantile Men of. Milesburg,

and all to call and examine your stock,
and thereby increase'your business, and

PLEASANT GAP AND VICINITY.—This
Tillage is traversed from • north-east to
south-east, by the Lewisto - wn and Belle
fonte turnpike. It is bounded on the
east and south by the Nittany mountains;
on the north by Iforntown, and on the
- west by sundry farms.
How this place came •to receive this
name, tradition does not inform us; but
during the eighteenth Century, Logan,
who was surnamed the Mingo Chief,and
who belonged to a tribe of Indians then
occupying this section of the country,
traveled, from a beautiful spring in Mif
flin county, which still bears his name,
across the Seven mountains, through
this Gap, and on to Milesburg, where
there was a trading post. This branch
of Spring creek -was called Logan's
branch, and this should havebeen,called
Longan's gap, according to this tradi
tion.
Now, a few comments on the place and
its inhabitants. The post-office, which
is the only governmental institution in
the -village, is kept by Mr. Henry Eck
enroth, a staunch Republican, and an
advocate of Negro suffrage. He lost an
arm at the battle of Chancellorsville,but
continued in service as a commissioned
officer. As far as I am aware, he is
faithful to hiS charge. He has a nice
home. The hotel; formerly owned arid
carried on by-Mrs. Sarah Corman, was
purchased by Capt. Wm. lckoff, who
now carries it on. This is as nice a
country hotel as eanbe found anywhere.
The store is kept by. Mr. L B. McEntire,
whose undeviating application to busi
ness, warrants that he has superior fac
ulties for carrying on such business.—
The toll-gate is kept by Mr. John Barnes,
who also manufactures segars, and keeps
a confectionery., There are two church
es and one school-house. The oldest
church is the Methodist, and the last one
built is called the Lutheran; but I think
it is-intended to be a Union church, tho'
deeded and dedicated a Lutheran. This
church is not yet completed, on account
of the depression in financial circles.—
Rev. Mr. Butler is Pastor of the Metho
dist cbuich, and Rev. Mr. Haelienber
ger of the Lutheran. The school-house
is not an old one, but it is a . very poor
one, and should be torn down, and ft new
one erected, containing two rooms, and
then grade the school. It should also
contain a town-ball for the purpose of
holding all kinds of meetings in. This
school, and the Horntown school, could
easily be united for the purpose of gra
dation. This place is,improving slowly.
I There are some nice houses and homes
here. The number of inhabitants I am
Unable to give, since I had no time to
take the census. There are nice groves,
and any one who likes a nice home; and
likes to pick stones, let him come here to
purchase land, and his desires will be
consummated. I think the majority of
the voters. are Democrats, although this
place, contains some of the stiffest Re
publicans that Centre county can afford.
The circulation of the BELLEFONTE Ris•
PUBLICAN is not'very large, owing to the
large circulation of other Republican pa
pers before the REPUBLICAN was inaugu
rated; but, Messrs. Editors, live in hope,
and the circulation of your paper, in this
vicinity, will certainly increase, and
others diminish. There is a great deal
of traveling done along this pike, which
makes it quite lively. It appears to be
quite a Sunday resort for Bellefonte
folks, and for pleasure rides for them.—
HorntoWn, alias Harrisonville, as I stat
ed before, lies north, or rather, north--
east of this place. It is merely a com—
bination of dilapidated structures, al
most uninhabitable, except a few; still
there is a class of people apparently
eager to secure such houses at a low fig
ure of rent. Horntown has obtained such
eminence in history, that the citizens de
ny the - name when they get five miles
from home, and call it Harrisonville, be
cause there are so many Harrisons (all
good and industrious citizens) living
there. At present this Community is
gifted with the residence of a large num
ber of the township officers., which, no
doubt, will have a tendency to increase
public interest and trust. No doubt the
peace will remain unmolested, the roads
belonging. to the township improved,
new school-houses erected and new teach
ers employed, all being for the better
elevation of the depressed citizens. This
place has been favored thia year by "the
giver of all good and perfect gifts,"with
an abundant supply of cherries, should
He allow them to ripen. The soil here
appears to be particularly adapted to the
growth of cherries. The gardens pre
sent a beautiful appearance, and pro
duce as nice vegetables as the country
can afford. The farms in this section of
"moral vineyard" produce well, and are
generally well improved and very sale.-
ble. Alflouring-mill, and saw-mill are
in close proximity to the' village. The
buildings are all frame or log, except
the beautiful brick house, erected last
season, by our much esteemed friend,
Mr. Jesse Stewart, who is still improv
ing his property, which bids fair to
make one of the finest country residences
desirable.
The - preceding I consider a sketch of
this place; not complete, bccanse it would
require to.n much writing.
[Our correspondent does not appear
to be bo - Oked in regard to the source
whence Harrisonville derived its name.
The facts are as follows :—the land upon
which the town now stands belq.ged to
Thos. Harrison, an industrious and res
pectable mechanic. He laid out the town.
and in honor to his enterprise, his neigh
bors insisted that it should bear his own
name, The first house erected in the
new town, was by a man named Eli s
Horne, hence the name of Horne town.

FATAL ACCIDENT.Jaceb Zimmerman,
about 35 years of age, formerly of Boggs
this county, met with his death, on
Thursday, the I,7th inst.,' by falling from
the roof of a barn, upon which he was
working, in Cooper Settlement, Clear
field county. Mr. Zimmerman leaves a
wife and four children to mourn his un
timely death. Be was a, good citizen,

For the Republican
The pie-nic mania is just now raging
-in this vicinity with unexampled fury,
devastating rural arbors and milking
yards most deplorably. We have now
appointed an Advisory Committee, and
at our last meeting it was thought best
to have two of our recherche bucolic en
tertainments, each week, during the
season. There is nothing like system in
these matters. AVithout it, pie-nits are
viciously disposed to wobble. We may
properly mention, at this point, that the
policy of carrying our horse-feed along
in the shape of corn on the cob, and
shelling it in the carriage-boxes during
the trip, has been. vetoed, the farmers
along the line entering such vigorous re
monstrances, and declaring their swine
herd alarmingly depleted, and the re
maining shoats little less than porcine
maniacs: On our last .trip, seventeen
farmers were out in active pursuit of
wayward hogs, enticed from home by
the seductive music of our economically
arranged cornahellers,
We have also advanced a step in our
system of economy. The application of
greenbacks to the requirements of pic
nics, anil the most economical outlay of
whatever luere may be conveniently in
our several pockets, having been under
advisement, the committee unanimously
resolved that the practice of expending
three, four, and, as proven on one oc- .
casion, five dollars for the use andpleas
ure of a small but select company of
thirty couples, is embarassing and de
moralizing in the highest degree, and
should, in the future, be discarded. The
practice of giving landlords the cold
shoulder, and escorting our ladies to the
residences of their relatives and friends
for dinner, will still be adhered t o, and,
under certain circumstances, the invita
tions to our ladies will be eaten ded only
with the proviso that they shall receive
our company and lemonade in exchange
for dinners with their relatives and ac
quaintances. This worked very well on
our last trip, and as we brought the
girls home supperless, the expense for
the entire party was something less than
$3 - 35, and one of the girls—a chamber
maid, receiving $1 50 per week—paid
$3 of that.
At the earnest solicitation of inexpe
rienced rural friends at the Bank, Mill
beim, Osceola, Aaronsburg and Belle
fonte, we have consented to give one of
• our grandest entertainments,in the high
est style of art, on the 3d of July. It
was decided, at our last meeting, that,
as this would most likely be- the pie nic
of the season, no expense should be
spared to - ensure its-success beytind Per
adventure. The creme de la creme only
will receive printed invitations,although,.
to guard against any possible failure, we
have decided to send out. seine 40 odd
additional invitations to . second class,
and, in some cases, no class of person at
all. You see the party will partake,
somewhat, of the nature of a surprise.—
Just imagine the astonishment .of the
ladies and gentlemen from Bellefonte,
Potter's Mills, Boalsburg, etc., on the
arrival of the lay delegations from the
classic regions of the Loop, Poe Valley,
New Lancaster, the wilds of the Seven.
'mountains, Diamond • Valley and the
Bear Meadows. And the facial contor
tions, and the high order of nasal eleva
Lions that will prevail ! Won't it be a
jolly surprise ? Of course, many will be
justly indignant at the "c little game,"
and perhaps break away, but if we can
once get them in line, we count our
troubles over. The ladies have been
earnestly requested to cook for two
meals instead of the usual single meal,
and they will, of course, breakfast at
home. Knowing our method of doing
business, of course the ladies readily
understand that invitations are extend
ed-them with the express stipulation that
unless the two meals aro forthcoming,
their company can be dispensed with.—
So, "cut bait., or wade ashore." To make
the affair as novel as recherche, the com
mittee on Barns have secured the rental
of a commodious stable near the Seven
Mountains, and the contract expreaSly
states that not less than three, nor more
than five . tons of new sorrel-top grass
shall be conveniently spread about the
premises. The barn belongs to a widow
lady, in rather indigent circumstances.
She will, however, be measurably roliev,
ed, and placed beyond any immediate
prospect of starvation, as she receives all
the oats and refuse corn left, over by our
animals. We believe in being generous
to the "widow and the fatherless," and
she has five small children. We shall do
our dancing in the widow's barn, and
break up in time to allow the girls to
reach home is due season to do the milk
ing, and finish the chores preparatory
for Sunday. Who says the elements of
fire and water, common sense and musty
gingerbread snobbery will not fuse on
the 3d of July ?. We shall see what we
shall see. As this affair engrosses all
our attention at present, the supply of
locals is, as you see, delightfully meagre.

is a matter of common remark, that as
we advance in commercial prosperity as
a nation, wa also advance in rascality.
This is being daily exhibited in our com
munity; but we can assure our readers
that at the store of Major Pifer, in the -
Brockerhoff Row, they can'buy all kinds
and elasses of goods, without fear of
rascality being practiced upon them. He
has just returned from the Eastern mar
kets with a new assortment of summer

SPRING TowNSurr.—The people of
Spring township, or a majority of them,
are awake to their true interests. When
the free schools close, they at once open
subscription schools. Two of these
schools, taught respectively by H. 0:
Kline, at Pleasant Gap, and J. M. Zirn-.
merman, at Curtin's mine bank, closed
their first session on Friday last. A good
school has just.commenced at Weaver's
school-house, by Miss: Bella Weaver, of
Bellefonte,. J. D. Miller has commenced
the summer term of free school at the
Boiling Spring school-house. The in
terest taken by the citizens in good
schools,and education generally accounts
for the' Republican majorities in Spring
township. _ Education, intelligence and
Republicanism go hand-in-hand.., With
these combined, and the educated youth
of the land to take the place of-their in
telligent fathers, we need have no fears
in regard to our liberties or our Repub
lican institutions.
NovsL Wsiremo.—A friendrelat es us,
says the Centre Hall Reporter, the par
ticulars of-a novel wedding, which took
place a few days ago, in a village not 20
miles west from Centre Irall. The par
ties, of course, according to the good old
established custom; upon which there
has not yet been au innovation, wore of
the opposite sex—lie, a bachelor, some.
what advanced in years, she, a widow,
much his junior in years. The parties
had agreed to meet each other at the said
village, at an appointed time, to have
welded around them the sweet and bliss
ful bands of Hymen; and meet they did,
stung with the mischievous arrow of
Cupid—he came on'horseback, from one
direction, she on foot, from another, and
then together they went, and had them
selves sentenced to be one flesh and blood
for life, as it is written in the good Book
that all the eons and daughters of Adam
should do. After the knot was tied, our
hero gallantly gathered up his bride,
placed lien behind him charger,
and sped away with his prize to where
he had been accustomed to keep-bache
lor's hall, henceforth relieved from darn
ing his own stockings, and sewing on
buttons, and to be, as we hope, a hap
pier man. The bridegroom. upon being
asked why be did not come in a buggy,
replied, that he did not feel so certain
his bride would meet him at the appoint
ed time and place, hence, by going. on
horseback, he could not be taunted with
being fooled, as no one would suspect
his having come to get married in that
way. Pretty cute old bath; we warrant
the knot will hold. We wish the parties
life-long happiness, and other things to
boot.
