We also le irn that a bear was discovered

Lim, could get bit gun ready to go olT, the
bear descended the tree and went tJT uimseif,
thus making good his escape.

Siccc their advent amongst us Messrs.

first of August they expect to have every

prepared to manufacture all kind of cooking
and beating stoves, plough casting, iron
railing of the most beautiful designs for fei.t
ni purposes, and in fact all ftyle of casting
which may be needed in this section of the
country. This expenditure t f time and mcw

in tbe country, and cor.fi tent of this they
desired to le prepared in all resrects for tht
execution of any work which trwv piny bo

FiE!D Mac Tbe upholstery shop of the
Ta. K. R. Co. caught fire on Saturday l ight,
and the material and building was euiiMiderably
damaged. If ir had been for the timely inrer
ference of tbe fire steamers, under the efficient
management of the respective companies, there
is no doubt but there would have been a gen
eral conflagration among the Company's shops.
It is almost incredible the short space of time
required by the several companies to get their
engines into operation. Too much praise and
commendation cannot be given to our fire de
partment (being comparatively novices iu the
business) for the energy and skill they display
in the wot king of their engines.
Our mountain city is now pretty well provided
with fire apparatus. The city has two A No. 1
Amoskeag fire steamers, one hand cng'u.e, one
hook and ladder company and a hose company.
Besides these tbe Pa. R R. Co. has a first class
Amoekeag engine, which they have kindly con
sented to permit the city to use in case of a
conflagration. Thee several companies are
composed of some of our best and most reliable
and energetic cit zens.

would not convey "an adequate idea ot the im
mense crowd of people assembled. The strong
armed, hard working yeomenry, tbe honest,
hard fisted mechanic and the brawny, sun burnt
laborer were all there to aid in the t;ood cause
The people evineod by their atteution and de

Uiiioi.isru shall staud or mongrel radicalism
shall again triumph, with all its attendant evils
and liberty-destioying influences. Among the
speakers present was that ".ble and eloquent
champion of Democratic princnles, the (earless
R. M.lton Speer, Esq.. ot Hun tinge" on, a man
who, in the darkest hour of our nation's peril,
when seceionists at tho south and traitors at
tbe north were seeking the otherthrow of our
republican form of government, stood firm,
turning neither to the right nor to the left, but
fearlessly maintaining his integrity and his De
mocracy. This was the first time that Mr.
S.eer met with. the Democracy ot Altooua, and
he made quite a favorable impression among
the people here. Ilia speech whs free from that
petty elaiig and personal abusa so common
Kadical orators. It was able, logical and sound,
aui sa.k deet.lv into the minds of bis hearers.

his conclusions so forcible that they made some
ot the Ptcicii!s wince, tw ist, snarl and snap like
a bhiok tn.ike in the middle of August. John
F. Barnes, Lsq., of Johnstown, was the next
speaker, and a very forcible and effective one
be ia too perfectly at home in the discussion
of political questions.
At the conclusion of the ppeeches a grand
torchlight proeessiuti formed and marched thro'
t!;e principal streets of the citv, preceded by
ti Mountain City Brass Band, which discoursed
most excelieut music. The procession was
under tbe marahalship of that old war horse of
Democracy, li. H. Feitinger, E-q. After the
procession the meeting disperse t with three
reusing cheers fnr Seymour and Blutr, the next
President and Vice President of the United
States.
T l.cre was nothinj to mar the harmony of
the occaljn except a futile attempt on part of
8 lew Radical sprigs to create a disturbance.
I would advise the-e p'ugs to behave themselves
in the future or they may get into trouble.

HoLLirAVSBuno, July 10, 1SCS.
F&!i; McPikk Amid the numerous ac
counts you receive of conventions, exhibitions,
picaica." para les, etc., it miy not be amiss to
inform you that we are not altogether behind
the age here.
On th 'JJ inst. was held the exhibition of
St. Mary's Academy and Parochial Schools.
Exercises began at nt ti o'clock p m and closed
a: half Dast rive. Encloed you will nnd a copy
cf the progr.itnine. Our beloved Bishop, the
Right Rev. M- Domenee, oui own good pastor,
Rev. J. Walsh, several Rev. clergymen, the
Mother Superior of- the Order of Mercy, and
six Sisters, honored the occasion with their pre
sence. St. Mary's trass baud discoursed excel
lent music at intervals
During tbe examinations the pupils ef the
good Sisters and those of the Male Department
evinced au aptitude in their different studies,
ni.4 a decided taste lor music, which was high
ly creditable to themselves, and gave ample
proof of the extraordinary care and attention
bestowed on them by their talented and reli
gious Instructors. Among the pleasing and
well selected "plays" presented at the exhibi
tion, the "Witch of Rosenberg," arranged by
the late honored and lamented Cardinal Wise
man, at:r.ic:ed speci.il attention aud gaVe uni-ver-iil
satisfaction.
After the distribution of crons to the most
deserving pupils our kiud Bishop, in his usual
haj py manner, testified h:s gratification at the
apparent progress of the children and puid a
well merited compliment to those devoted ladies
wr.o hav.) dedicated their lives to the cause ot
rell'ous education. The large exhibition hall
was tided with an appreciative audience, who
were highly delighted w ith this much wished
lor nnd most agreeable entertainment..
Previous to the recurrence of our national
independence festival a notice appeared in one
of our town papers stating that "as usual n
celebration of the coming Fourth might lie ex
pected," and rather encouraging its leaders to
seek eniovmaut elsewhere. Pro in this it ui'irbt
beinfei reu that we are a very unpatriotic people
Now, I have been for a lou term of yeirs a
resident of this good old town, and yet cannot
recall to memory a single Fourth of .liily , Bur
ins nearly a ouarter of a century, which was
Nor celebrated in a becoming manner by the
titiers of Holiidavsburz. Last Saturday was
no exception to this rule. It is true, some per
sons lelt town in the moruiug to visit other lo
calities. These could hardlv be supposed toj
know anything of what occurred here in their
absenceand therefore must be readily pardoned
for asserti ag that the town, after being deprived
ot their enlivening (?) presence, was as "quiet
as a (Junker meeting
Three picnics were held, not by the "German
and Irish citizens," but by the Methodist, Pres
byterians and C.ithol.c American citzens.
Those of the Methodist and Presbyterians were
for tho children of the respective Sabbath
schools and their friends, and were well con
ducted affairs, highly enjoyed by all who parti
cipated. The procession for the Catholic pic
nic kit tho church about half past 8 o'clock a
u., beaded by the "stars and stripes" and pre
ceded by St. Mary's brass band, which made a
short halt of tbe Diamond, aud there enlivened
the quiet of the morning, with the stirring
streams of our most popular national airs. The
procession mar ched to Col. Jack's woods, where
was found every facility for the indulgence of
innocent pleasure. J. he day was nue one, the
, rove selected a delightful resort, harmony and
j gwoa ieeiins prevailed, ine oes uruer was main-
. lHined tn6 i,our3 seemed to pass quickly
and happily for all present. All parties who
visited our picnic concurred in the statement
that it was just the place for rational enjoyment,
and wk think that such affairs are deserving
the name of a "Celebration of tbe Fourth of
the Fourth of July." H.
The Latist and Bist. It is ouly a few
days since our mercantile friend down street,
Mr. R. R. Davis, received a most ample and
excellent stock of summer goods of almost
every description dry goods, dress goods, and
a complete line of notions. Now is the time
to fo and examine them, aa there ia a good
chance to suit your tastes, and buy goods at
the cheapest prices.
