Blocks. boards, lattli lumber of j every description it carried of in broad day i light and at all boors of the day and night There is no safety mtr security for anything in the shape of wood onli-as It is too heavy to J carry. Young men and old, women and j children all engage in the work of plunder, i seemingly regarding every one who is uufor I lunate enough to he engaged in building as a fair subject for robbing. It is high time that these parties begin to get a knowledge of the difference between the oroperty that belongs to them and that which belongs to other peo [ n'e. If they don't soon learn it of their own j accord, they should be taught it by the offi J eers of the law, CbthTrin at least should not j be permitted to be trained up for common j thieves before they are old enough to under stand that stealing is a crime.

ACCIDEXT. —Mr. William Goodman, a car penter of this piace, white at Mill Creek on Monday morning, met with a painful accident. He was on his way to work at McVpytowri and the train stopped at Mill Creek for the Baltimore Express to pass. He was landing on the northern track, and discovered the Ex press train coming, when he got on the other track behind the caboose car. As he was -tandiug there, the engineer of the freight train backed up against the caboose, which struck Goodman and knocked him down across the track, and one of the trucks ran over both bis legs and broke them below the knee. He was brought home and his wounds drtsaed by Dr. D. P. Miller.— Huntingdon Globt. THE Herald of Health for December ia on our table.

A CHALLENGE.—We have received the D>-. comber number of "Merry's Museum.'' for young people, and old people too who have not forgotten that they were once young. The Publisher, Hoi ace B. Fuller. Boston, claims that "Merry" is the bent magazine oj its kind issued in this country- and challenges comparison. Our readers can decide this point for themselves by sanding to him two three cent stamps for a specimen. The january number begins a New Volume, which will lie further enlarged and improved, ferine, $1.50 a year in advance. Published by Horace B. Fuller, 14 Bromtie'd Street, Boston.

IHE MORVONS. —Late Salt Lak" tapers .-witatll the proceedings of the Crenerai Mormon Conference. Ail the Mormon church dignitaries were fully represented, ll was un-nimou ly agreed that commercial inter - urse w-.th the Uentiles should be re-tricted to neces-tti s. Mormons generally purcbas "g from the Gentiles will do so at the peril of expulsion from the Church. 1 List .ensure - urged as necessary in selfdefence against 'lie rapidly approaching danger from out • iders coming in with tfie Union Pacific Kail oad. 1 hey are avowed enemies of the Mor mon Institutions, and commercial nou-iuter c urse only can restrain the Mormons and encourage borne u anutketures. AVAI.AV,-HE IN WHITE MIUNTAIX.—A ter rible avalanche of rocks recently occurred ear the Notch House, on Mount Mansfield, White mmintuins. One rock, weighing m.-re | httn one hundred tons, fell, crashing its way j ver and through the f rest a thousand feet ■ r more, cutting the trees off like pipe-sleuis. 'ill it finally lodged within ten rods of the house; and near it an- 'her, some twenty feet r more square, stands -up like a tower," while ■ther smaller ones have left their traces tu different directions, A N ARROW LSCATE:.—A narrow escape from -t frightful death occured in B -st.m a fow days •go. A slater on a roof lost his hold and slid down. As be shot the eJge. he succet ded in grasping the gutter, at.d held on with both hands, bis body suspended. Ihe lookers-on -xpected every instant to see him da-lted to teces on the pavement, fony stories below. By great exertion he succeeded in drawing him-elf up a few inches, throwing one foot o-t tt e cutter, clambering into it aud thereby -ustaming himself till help came. Ax ANCIENT HORN. —Salem, Maasachustts, feels proud of an ancient pnwdcr horn tn the possession of its eirit.-ns. It was picked up at the battle of bunker Hill by Samuel Fowler, f Danerspprt, whose wife was a sister of General Israel Putnam, and it has remained in the FowCer family ever since. Under the ■ sine of the owner— uel Harris, his horn, I?tso'*—are various figures neatly cut tn the horn, a fishing -chooner, several pat tern- of the ancient Ma-.-achu-etts "codfish: a musket, an Indian, and a bird or two. ONE of tbe fir.t acts of General Grant, it is confidently stated will be a recommendation •o Congress to resnme specie payment. YVe have the gold and silver in the country—the world is full of it—but as long a brokers a'd banker- are all. wed to keep it locked up in he vaults of banks, ju-t so long will the peo r>le s;.tf-r from speculations tha" are now truly to be described as roberies. If General Grant can defeat the speculators who now have their filthy fingers iti the pockets of hard working and honest men. he will do as much good as he did by tearing the bloody fingers of ttaiiors front the throat of the Goveru ment. THE Coroner of Philadelphia should -ludy ■he method of doing things in Richmond. Here the case of Twitchell's inothrrn in Uw a- pasged ujwin. She was found murdered. All the evidence pointed to twichell ami wite is tbe murderers. The jury beloved they were. They said so. and the verdict went Upon the records. Pollard's c*-e passed upon. The jury heard how one ' Grant was found alone in a room; how the foal shot eaitie from that room; how the gun was found n it emptv; in a word, they heard all about how and why the cowardii assist nation was o<.nullified; yet they say Pollaid was killed t.y some one unknown. It is a wonder to u hey did not decde that Pollard yet lived. CHIEF Jrsnci CHASE is gradually prepar o.g the way for the acquittal of Jeff Davis The matter may not have been set up before tbe arch rebel •'departed the reaim," but his case is moving toward its end wiih the certaiuty of well-prepared machinery. Tbe Tiron clad" ■athis no longer regarded necessary by the Chief Justice. Grand jurymen and petit jury men may now he -Worn in to perform, their functions without regard i . previous conduct. This insures a rebel tribunal to pass upon the guilt or innocence of one of their own clans men. Why keep op the farce longer? All its points have become so transparent as to -ink far below tbe d gnity of justices or the respectability of lawyers. They can gain nothing by indulging lurther in fantastic tricks. SENATOR SHEKMAV will, at the coming ses sion of Congress, again introduce his bit! for funding the National debt at a lower rate of interest. It was passed at the close of tbe ■ ast session, and pocketed by the President. He is confident ot being able to again present it and carry it over the President s veto. :llcir 51 (Utrti.scmtnts.

THE GUBERNATORIAL CONTEST. While personally we desire rest from the political turmoil, at least for a while, we can not close our eyes to the fact that our ever vigilant opponents are already preparing for the Gubernatorial contest next year; and as we believe that in timt of ptace tec should prepare for tear, we would exhort our politic al friends to make preparations for coming contingencies at #nce, and CIRCULATE THE NEWSPAPERS among your neighbors. If you have a Re publican paper in your county that istrneand reliable to the party, it should be preferred to those printed in other countries. After you have done thi*. and you ar.d your friends desire a true and reliable Republican journal from abroad, we would recommend to you either the WEEKLY OR DAILY TELEGRAPH. They are published at the seat of our State Government, and will contain lull reports of 'he doings of the National and State Legisla tures.
