A OtCKT IxcnENT. A ralhtr liidkrous
affair occurred during the late session of the
vnrnUria Couuty Court. A witnes resuuns
in an adjoining county was rabpwnaed to

m-ss, without getting into a hujf, coolly bided
his time, ami taking the hapless Teuton at
an advantage, bound htm hand and foot, as
did ttie Philistines with Sampson of old, and
laid him on the floor. The amazed deputy
loudly remoustrated against this new method
of "laying down the law," aud made sundry
threats that as tha Commonwealth was bound

chievous witness should bo "bound over" to
answer, etc.
Finally, the deputy grew more tranquil
the witness cAttvted his mischievous disposi
tion, a compromise was effected, and the
twain journeyed together to Ebensburg
the deputy on his arrival showing "on his
face" that he was at considerable discount,
while the witness displayed his usual good

"Ne-vkb. too Latk." It Is rumored that
a wedding came off in this vicinity at tho
unpropitlous hour of midnight, a few days
fclnce, and it la further alleged that that late
hour was chosen in orJer to avoid a "little
unpleasantness, as Josh Billings would say.
The young man, bo report says, had prom
iced to marry two confiding fair ones, and
" fixed the same day for both ceremonies, but
as that arrangement could not bo carried
out with due regard to his own personal
sifiity he concluded to camproraise matters
by marrying one of thera "between two
days." and hence the wedding we have
noted. If th one he didn't marry should
prosecute for breach of promise our readers
shall hear of it.
JTeteb Bf.hikd Our mercantile friend,
George Huntley, is never behind in enter-
firise, snd whatever new things comes out
his line he is sure to have on sale in short
order. 'The latest article he has introduced
to his customers is the "lied Jacket Axe,"
certainly the most efiactive and satisfactory
implement of the kind that has yet been
gotten up in this progressive age. Of course
all our lumber men and wood choppers will
call on Mr. Huntley and see this justly cele
prated axe.

Death of John C. O'Neill. By a tele
gram front New Orleans, directed to Judge
Shannon of Pittsburgh, we are informed of
the death, in the former city, of John C.
O'Neill, Esq., on Wednesday, the 11th of
Mflrch, ultimo.
Mr. O'Neill was born in Ireland, and em
igrated to this country with his parents when
but a child, lie attained his majority in
Cambria county, and afterwards figured
somewhat extensively in the politics of the
county and State. In 1851 he was appoint
ed Superintendent of the Alleghany Poitage
Hail Koad, but a change iu the Canal Board
rendered his official career brief. On the ac
cession of General Tierce to the Presidency
he received the appointment of Consul to
Belfast, and during his absence visited the
continent of Europe. He set ved the govern
ment in various capacities during the rebel
lion, and about the close of the war made
his residence in New Orleans, where he con
tinued to reside until his death.
He was distinguished mainly by a force of
character that disregarded all obstacles to
the fulfilment of his wishes, while his per
sonal appearance and address rarely failed to
accomplish whatever he aimed at.
Since writing the foregoing, the following
from the New Orleans Times of the 15th of
March has come under our observation. To
our readers we need scarcely say that Mr.
O'Neill never held either ot the positions as
signed him by the paper in question :
Melancholy Death by Suicide. An inquest
was held by Coroner Bradford, on Wednes
day, upon the body of Judge Jno. C.O'Neil,
who was carried to the Charity Hospital a
few hours previous, and who bhortly after
expired. '
The inquest showed that the deceased had
come to his death from morphine, which he
had voluntarily taken, lie had committed
suicide by poison.and the act had evidently
been a deliberate one. A letter written to
an 0i,i frierl will show better than any
comment with what terrible tranquility the

In the trunk of the deceased was found a
claim against tl United States Government
for something like $19,000. His circum
stances were embarrassed at the time of his
death, but not, perhaps, permanently so, o'
enough in frdiuary casts to have awakened
thoughts of death.

PrcnsoKAT..: We are informed that Mr.
Leopold Mayer, late of New York, has leased
for a term of years one of the large aud fine
rooms in Parke's new iron front brick build
ing, cn Main street, Johnstown, and will,
on the Cth of April next, open Op therein
one of the largest and finest stocks of Dry
Goods and Millinery and Fancy Goods ever
brought to that place. Mr. Mayer has large
experience in the mercantile line, and iu the
Millinery Department will have the services
of a lady of unquestioned taste and judg
ment, who will always keep pace with the
latest fashions of Paris, London and our
American cities. Assured that every effort
will be made to give satisfaction as to style,
quality and price, we take pleasure in re
commending: the new establishment to the
patronage of the public.
Gone East. Keep your eyes open and
your pocket books ready, for we know
wbeteof we speak when we say that a largo
and handsome stock of Spring goods will
reach our town in a few days. We saw
Harry Shoemaker get on the train Monday
evening, and wc just know that be has gone
East to buy a whopping stock of merchan
dise. Eggs fell from thirty to fifteen cents per
dozen within the past week. Butter still
commands thirty-five cents, but thirty-flve
cents don't command butter in this latitude
to a very alarming extent just now.. The
lowest prices prevailing will buy all other
kinds of goods at the cheap store of J. M.
Thompson, on Higli street. Go and see.
Dr. Walter Bell. Our old friend. Dr.
Walter Bell, formerly of Summitville, after
spending the winter season at Philadelphia,
has located himself at Altoona for the pur
pose t.f practising his profession. We de
fire him abundant success, and are confi
dent that his well known medical skill and
professional industry will command it.
Just So. Nobody regrets, we presume
that tb long and hard winter is-past, but
some people may regret if they leavo the
opportunity go by without purchasing the
rea'lly beautiful aud really cheap goods now
beinf sold at greater bargains than ever by

Diar Freeman -The feast day of the apos
tle and patron of the Irish race was duly
honored in this town by our Celtic fellow
citizens, and in the evening Bishop Domi
nec delivered an eloquent panegyric on the
Patriarch and Saint, to a larj;e and attentive
audience, in St. John's Church. The re
cords of down-trodden and oppressed Ire
land are stained with the blood of the bra
vest and best, and the only gleam of sun
shine amid her sad and bitter memories is
the history and traditions of the great St.
Patrick. The relentless persecution of cen
turies has had no more tfiect against the seed
sown by the humble missionary than have
the angry waves against the rock-bound
coast where they dash and break, and well
may the exiled children of Erin, in every
city, village and hamlet, honor the day and
pay respect to the memory of their noble
and saintly patron.
The Mechanical Works commenced build
ing a temporary bridge over the Stony Creek
on Monday last, and had almost completed
it by Friday afternoon, when, owing to the
temporary removal of several of the stays,
which were iu the road of adjusting some of
the string timbers, the entire structure gave
wiy, precipitating two ladies, two little
girls, a boy, and three of the carpenters into
the river. " Mrs. Do wen, one of the ladies,
became entangled in the floating debris, and
was with great difficulty rescued. The boy,
a young lad named Banker, had his ancle
broken, and W. J. Uose sustained severe in
juries of the side and back. The others were
all drawn out unhurt. Your correspondent
was working on the bridge at the time it
commenced falling, and barely made his es
cape by running to shore. ' About a dozen
persons were employed at the work, but
luckily the most of them were at either end
when it fell. The bridge will be rebuilt im
mediately. Tho comer stone oi the new U. B. Church
was laid yesterday, aud an immense throng
was in attendhnce to witness the imposing
ceremonies. Bishop G lossbi enner, of Balti
more, assisted by a number of other minis
ters, otlichited. It is designed to push the
building to an early completion.

Tno Taylor township school at Woodva'e,
in charge of Miss Grist, closed its session a
few days since. The children attending this
scit kiI were all very young, and their pa

at the rapid improvement evinced during
the term just closed. Miss G. is well fitted
for the avocation she lias chosen, and if her
success is commensurate with her merits ehe
will have no difficulty in elevating hen-elf to
the highest ranks of tho profession.

The Cambria Iroa Co. have commenced

very great, and the embankment I speak of

Dear Freeman Death, for the first time
for several mouths, has boen among us anil
summoned from our midst the youngest son
of Mr. John Wcrtner, an infant of hut three
mouths. He died of croup, after au illness
of but a few hours duration.

The grain fields look exceedingly well in
deed never has your correspondent noticed
them giving greater promiso at this season
than now, and it is to be hoped that nothing
will occur to injure the growing crops.
Although not given to puffing, your cor
respondent, in the. interest of y.jtir reader
and the public generally, would ask permis
sion to call attention to an article of real
merit recently introduced here by Mr. Mar
tin L. Oatman, of Wilmore, this county. I
allude to "Bentley's nou-explosive Metro
politan Oil," for which it is claimed : first,
that it is entirely safe and harmless, being
uoa-explosirs ; second, that it is inodorous,
not emitting any noticeable smell ; third,
that it produces a more brilliant light and
burns as long as carbon oil. and fourth, that
it costs only about one half the price of car
bon oil. 1 hese qualities, your correspondent
is able to say, really characterize the article
named, as he is convinced from a careful ob
servation of tho oil while burning and from
knowledge gained through a chemical anal
ysis of its ingredients. I can also bear wit
ness that it will not soil any article upon
which it may fall, ami this, in view of the
frequency of such mishaps, is no small mat
ter in the domestic circle. Now, reader,
glance at the saving in the humblest family
from the use of this oil for one year. Say
j-ou use two gallons of carbon oil per month
(and few families uso less) at the prevailing
price of 80 cents per Rallon, in oue year it
amounts to $19 20. Now, purchasethe Me
tropolitan Oil at 40 cents per gallon, and
you save for the year $9.60, or almost the
price of a barrel of flour. Imagine how
pleased most men would be. on finding a
barrel of flour in the house on New Year
day which cost them nothing! Well, every
resident of Carroll, Susquehanna and Chest
townships can realize this pleasure by pur
chasing his oil from the enterprising firm of
J. Buck & Co., who have purchased the
sole right to manufacture and sell the arti
cle in the districts named. No more soiled
and stained table covers and carpets! No
more dangerous risks of life or property
from oil explosions ! Call at Buck Ac Co.'s
and see the "Metropolitan Oil" in use, and
you cannot fail to be convinced that it has
all the merits claimed for it. Iago.

Friend McPike As you have no regular
coriespondent in our old town I will endea
vor to give an idea of the manner in which
St. Patrick's D.-y was observed by St. Mary's
congregation.
The announcement had been previously
made that a lecture would, be delivered in
our new Hail, on tho 17th, by Rev. F. P.
O'Shea, of St. Francis' College, Ioretto.
At seven o'clock in the evening Father O'
Shea and our own devoted Pastor, l'ev. J.
Walsh, entered the Hall. St. Mary's Brass
Band favored the audience with a few pieces,
rendered in a most .efficient manner. This
Band has been but recently formed by mem
bers of the congregation, who have spared
neither labor nor expense in their efforts to
acquire proficiency in . the delightful art of
music,"and it is generally admitted that they
havj so far been highly successful. The
Junior String Band nest performed two
pieces with considerable taste and correct
ness. This little Band is composed of some
twenty pupils of St. Mary's Academy for
Boys. They have been practising only a few
weeks, and this was their first appearance
in public. . The audience manifested their
appreciation of the unexpected musical treat
by the most hearty applause. This was fol
lowed by a lively school song, after which
came the much wished for intellectual treat
of the evening. .
Father O'Shea took the stand, and during
the continuance of his deeply learned and
historical discourse-held the large assembly
spell-bound. His subject was "Ireland"
that theme so dear to the heart of every true
son of the Emerald Isle. It would be pre
sumption on the part of one devoid of more
than ordinary talent to attempt more than
a faint outline of the Rev. orator's remarks,
lie began with the origin of the Irish people,
and then delineated their leading traitd of
character, their progress in the Arts and
Sciences, and noted briefly their many bless
ings and their many wof.s, frcm thedanding
of St. Patrick on Ireland's shore down to the
cruel grievances of the present day. The
Rev. speaker did not treat of those subjects
which now agitate the minds of so many
classes, bui held up to our mental view the
principal facts relating to the past and pres
ent condition of Ireland, as attested by the
most reliable historians.
At the conclusion of the lecture the Brass
Band again grteted us with its inspiring
strains, and the audience slowly dispersed,
highly pleased with the evenina's entertain
ment. Yours, &c, OcsEiivaa.

I Fee "James J. Kaylor ventilates himself
again in your columns. Whether he. has
jjiven satisfactory answers to my questions 1
leave the public t i'ldire. Thi shallow de
vice of getting tho names ot his accomplices
at Johnstown to vouch tor their honesty and
his is indeed rich ! while the statement of
?.Tr. YVm. J. Buck proves precisely what I
charged. Tho $3G lio in scarcely worth con
tradicting. My charge wis only i2,iesides
expenses. -
Kaylor don't know Coons, but Kuontz
knows Kaylur. So far from going to Kress
and Hart to do what Kaylor hud done, I as-
certained from them how Kajdor made his
per centage, and if Kaylor dares prosecute I
am prepared to establish the fact precisely
as I have stated it.
la this matter of per centage some people
may think that I am making a "mountain
out of a mole hill" that at the worst it
could onl' have been a trifling source of rev
enue to you perhaps netting you but a few
dollars in the aggregate. If such a belief is
entertained by any one he is nincii mistaken
in his reckoning, for I bavo reasons for as
serting that in comparison with your income
from this Source your regular salarj- was but
a secondary consideration, and that between
the two you were making more clear money
than any public servant in Cambria county,
to say the least.
It is a poor excuse for taking what was
not your own, that Col. McDermitt was in
charge of the Poor IIjusc when you toik the
hogs away. What right had he to know
they were not yours ? This is only equal to
j'our coolness in saying that I had no right
to speak of your taking the chickens because
I saw you do it. That is the very reason I
do speak of it.
But the coolest of all is his reply to the
charge that he imposed upon the Directors
at his own prices cattle they had never seen,
that it is "too stlly for notice." Ihis 13 a
very cheap way of getting out of transac
tions which no man could explain comist
entlv with honestj'.
You say "one Director cannot do busi
ness." During your re'gn business was done
not by one Director, but without any t for
blank orders were left by trre Directors, ready
signed, and you filled them up to suit.
You say the assertion that you ever charged
anything for a grain cradle "is a deliberate
lie." I repeat, a grain cradle was bought
from Mr. Huntley, on the 13th of August
last, and charged to the county. Tiat cra
dle yoic t'jolc " Hume." ;
But you do not like this controversy with
the "half of Ebensburg." Why did you
seek it, then 1 I should willingly have "let
you slide," with all you have dotte, if you
had let things alone. Neither am I urged
on by any one, but simply actuated by a
desire that the people shall know the truths
It is not the insinuations you are afraid of,
but the plain, blunt questions, which you
have not, cannot, and dare not answer. I
had a few more of "the same sort" to put,
but as you arc woary of the Controversy you
have sought, I forlcar.
Your charactf-r and mine are perhaps of
little consequence to the people, but such as
mino is, I would be sorry to exchange it for
yours. I have not yet been In the Sessions,
and I trust I shall not soon be.
You are now a private citizen, and I de
sire you no ''harm, but you will remember
your former insolence and tyranny, tchcn in
poxcer. You can easily call to mi ad your
threats that 1 should yet "feel your power."
I hope that your long lease of power, which
might have spoiled a better man than you,
and your ofiicial tyranny will be repeated of
iu your new "lloine."
