Fare-vu is not very gineraily known to the
Fremane, and so it will be Decesaary for rne
to giv you a slite sketch of this very remark
able sitivation. Fare-vu is rather J(xseW
lokated a distance from any. where and a
stranger is struck very hard by the regerlari
ty of the stieet, whitch runs pretty giner
ally all the wa thru it. It hes the largest
poperlashin uv enny plase- in the United
Staits, akordin to the number of the. inhabi
tants, biziness is now very dull, sii;se the
Rt-belyun is dun and split brumes ar not so
mutch made. It has crate facilitys fur trade
in the grinestone line, as there ar a never
failin puply of materiel close to hand. Thare
ar no plaise to my knowin which b.A3 so

thare z a hepe of land all round it. It is
the lokashin fur the sitiva-shun of the nu
yuneyun churich, as you will se by referin to
the map of the kounty. But it iz not ue
ccsary fur me to go inter enny lenthy akount
uv the plaise, fur if the Freeinane ever kums
this wa. and iz a little observin, if it is a
clere day, he will see the plaise hisself. But

I will now, dere Fremane. kail yure at

kum off down to the metin hous, (not the

one as ain't yuneyun, down a pece). Thare
waz a very ni?e professer kum inter these

Thaie waz no panes spared to make it a

flour and kreme of the naborhood were
alowed to put in thare appearence, and the
riff-iaff and fog-ends were ginerally notified
that there war no show f . r them. So the
singin went on, and like ail. good things
yearthly, (as D-akin Ptabody says.) had to
kum for to hnv an end. But it was kon
kluded to bev a grand konsert in the nu

along with a lite nise kolectshun of rane, but

Johnstown, Jax. 6, 1868.
Dear Freeman A terrible tragedy was
enacted a few mues below this place, on
Tuesday evening last, resulting ia the almost
instant death of ilr. Charles Parker, conduc
tor of the Johnstown Accommodation. The
details of the affair as I have learned them
ato that a young ma named Hull got on
the train at New Florence to come to this
place, and shortly after the train left the
station he got into a dispute with one of the
brakemeu in regard to the money he had
paid to the conductor Hall alleging that he
had given a $2 bill and should have more
change, while the brakenian insisted that it
was a $1 note. The conductor, hearing the
dispute, came up, aad finding that be could
not settle it. stopped the train and ejected
Hull, but just as he was getting on the plat
lorm of the car Hull drew a pocket knife,
and making several lunges at Parker, he at
length drove the blade into his abdomen,
penetrating clear to the back bone. The
conductor staggered into the car, pulled the
bell rope for starting, and within ten min
utes thereafter was a corpse. When his
train reached this point a most heart-rending
scene was witnessed. The wife of the
niurTSerrd Jman, to whom be was but six
months wedded, had come from their homo
at Coneraaugh station during the day, and
had gone to tbe depot here in tbe evening for
the purpose of returning borne with her bus
J baud, and it was only when she was getting
j on tbe. cars that the first intimation reached
j her that he had been murdered. No one
j will fall to conceive without me attempting
j to describe the heart-crushing effect ct that
1 teirible intelligence on the young and loving
I wife. The remains of the unfortunate man
I were taken to Couemaugh, and ou Thursday
j were brought back and interred in Saudy
j Vale Cemetery here, followed by a large cou
j course of the Masonic fraternity and several
i hundreds of our citizens. The murderer was
i captured at Centreville, cn Wednesday even
ing, aud attvr a hearing was committed to
the Greensburg jail to answer for the awful
crime of murder.
Several daring burglaries have occurred
here during the past few nights, and a gen
eral feeling of insecurity prevails among our
down town citizens. The residence of Mr.
Thos. Collins was entered on Fi.day night
last, andjlbe burglars deliberately ransacked
a great portion of the house. The beautiful
silver service, drawn that eveidng by Miss
Lizzie CoHind, was very neatly packed with
a qnHutlty of dress goods, etc., aud quite a
large bundle was thus prepared to lemove
surreptitiously, but at this stage of affairs
Mr. Collins aweke, and bia attention being
attracted by the noise made by the burglars,
he aro.se, and the night prowlers bearing him,
and knowing no doubt that he was a man of
determined purpose, they iucontinently fled,
taking nothing in their hasty flight but a
circular belonging to one of Mr. C.'. daugh
ters. On tbe same night the dwel'ing ol Mr.
A. J. Hawes was entered and a valuable gold
watch and $65 in money taken therefrom.
The pcemises of our popular druggist friend,
C. T. Frazer, was visited the sam night, but
a young man who domicils at the house
came home at the "wee sma' hour" when
the burglars commenced operations, and for
tunately frightened them away. Several
other robberies occui red during the wetk, but
as S. B. is pressed for time he cannot now
particulirize.
The two Fairs in operation here during
the holidays proved complete successes, and
between them ut least $8,000 was realized.
The most gratifyiug feature of the Fair bus
iness was the presentation of a valuable lith
ograph to tbe committee of the Catholic Fair
by the managers of the Methodist, aud a re
ciprocal gift from the latter to the former.
A beautiful cigar case was voted for at the
Catholic Fair, and Capt. Gageby happening
to be here on a visit, the patrons of the en
terprise had no difficulty in locating the most
popular young man, and of course our milita
ry friend got the cigar case. Capt. Gageby,
no doubt, feels highly elated at the result, as
it was not so much the intrinsic value of the
gift as the flattering expression of popular re
gard which was manifested in the result of
the voting. I may remark per se that the
genial face of our worthy friend will be visi
ble here for a few days more, when he-departs
for hia distant "field of operations in
Santa Fe, New Mexico, where his regiment
is now stationed. May he ever meet with as
many and as true friends as he has in Jjis
native village. Bal. .

At the opening of the year 1868, Tab
Woeld challenges, more confidently than
ever, the sympathy and support of all pa
triotic citizens. A glorious work has been
gloriously begun. Deep already answers to
deep. The long fidelity of this journal to
the cause of Liberty protected by Law
stands nobly vindicated in a splendor of vic
tory shining from Maine to California. Con
necticut, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
New York, have thundered forth their ver
dict upon the misrule and madness of the
Past. But much more still remains to be
done. Never was the peril of the country
greater. The Radical party still decrees the
death of representative self-government in
ten sovereign States. Armed with military
despotism and wholesale Negro Suffrage, it
desperately grasps at a permanent leace of
power, in defiance of public opinion, at the
cost of enormous taxes and crippled indus
tries, at the cost of Union and Peace.
To the great battle still to be fought The
Woeld will give all its efforts, all its ener
gies. It asks of its friends in their turn as
much ; it asks of them mors readers and a
wider influence. It aks this with confidence
in its claims as a newspaper and as au organ
of opinion.
The chief use of a Newspaper is to give
its readers
ALL THE NEWS.
For this the facilities of The World are
unsurpassed by any journal in the United
States. It seeks to excel by an accuracy and
candor, a spirit and freshness in its news
columns which shall commend it to readers
of whatever party, tex, creed or place.
As an organ of opinion, The World is the
unflinching champion of
A Liberal Progressive- Democracy,
whereof the corner-stone is Freedom restrain
ed by Justice; Freedom pure and simple,,
in the largest collecti ve. measure ; the office
of Justice being to protect Freedom from
encroachments ; Freedom of the individual
citizen, in his rights of thought, speech, re
ligion and locomotion ; in his Right to choose
his own food and drink, in spite of meddle
some temperance laws ; in his Right to make
any money bargains be thinks proper, in
spite of foolish usury laws; in his Right to
buy and sell in all markets, domestic and
foreign, in spite of unjust protective tariffs;
in his Right to representation iu the legisla
tive bodies which Ux him, in spite of uncon
stitutional exclusions ; Freedom of collective
citizens to assemble for discussion of griev
ances ; Freedom of all local communities to
manage their local affairs without central
interference ; Freedom, in every section of
the country, from the arrogant and uncon
stitutional domination of other sections.
This large and comprehensive idea of Free
dom sums up the politics of "The World,"'
which will never be found wanting to this
capital interest of the country and of the
human race.
A paper published in the metropolis is
naturally looked to for careful Market Re
ports and authentic information, and intelli
gent di.cussions relating to
Trade, Commerce and Finance.
In these features, "Tdk World" invites
comparison with any other journal.
