Our own county has not escaped, and in addition to other acci dents of this nature already recorded wo to day give an account of the destruction by lightning of a barn and all its contents only a few miles from our town. In view of these oft-recurring conflagrations it behooves every property-holder to adopt means o guard against lore in this way. The only 6ure pre ventative is a good lightning-rod. and the one among the many admittedly the very best is the Muusou copper tubular lrghtaing-rod. with spiral Sanger, now being erected thro' out this county by Mr. Richard Jones, of Johnstown. No man who regards his own interests should neglect this matter, and no one who examines the Munson rod can fail to be convinced of its superiority over all others. Mr. Jos. Hoffman, whose barm was destroyed by lightning not long since, ha contracted, with Mr. Jones foT putting up these rods on his new house ana proposed new barn, convinced as he is that it is the best and cheapest before the public. Every other property-holder should profit by his example, Mr. Jones' address is Box 56, Johnstown Y. 0. "Ju,J J3.-'Jm. A Boors Coxvkktiox. The proceedings of what is gravely called the "Union Repub lican County Convention" appears in the Johnstown TriLunt of last weHc. They abound in fraud and forgery ; and we speak confidently when we allege that Mr. C. T. Roberts, the Kbensburg Secretary, never prepared them far publioatiou. Quite a number of delegates are named who wore not iu the Convention at all. For initaBce- (we quote from the Tribtuw) : 'Carroll, Joseph Davis." ' Mr. , Davis was not present. "Chest, Jacob Kiblor." Mr. Kil.ler was at home on his farm in Chest township, as a good citizen should be. Clearfield, Cclestino M'Mullin." lie was nut in the Comentiou. -Gallitzin, Capt. D. Miils, II. Gallaher." There was no II. Gallaher present. "Loretto, Henry Myers, Charles Miller." Charles Millvr was not in the Convention, but Henry Myers, a clever follow and good wag, voteJ in a sojtrano for himself and a deep bass fur Mr. Miller when- the names were calkd, thus taking two clia-uce iu the Radical lottery. No delegate t-lcctioas were hel l ia pursu ance of the call here or elsewhere, so far a we can learn, and the Convention jfaelf, tripped of the Rolling Mill, would have keen less than a rump. fi. won VI not have becB cveu the shadow of a shade.

Among the advantages ef the School we notice and com mend "a well supplied and well conducted Reading Room," an extensive set of Appa ratus, and a recognition of tho necessity of study. The School deserve, and has received extensive patronage, and is destined to still greatet success. It is highly recommended by all the school officers acquainted wlU it.

Destroyed by Lightsisg. We learn from Mr. Nicholas Lambourn that during the prevalence of a thunder storm which passed over the northern portion of our coun ty on Sunday afternoon last, the barn of Mr. Augustus Ysst, Jr., in Cambria' towuBhip, some eight miles north of Kbensburg, was struck by lightning and entirely destroyed, together with all ils contents, consisting of the almost entire crop of hay gathered by Mr. Yost, wagon, sled, gears, etc. Nobody resided upon th premise, aud tho destruc tion was almost complete before the Are was discovered.

Mr. John Rodriguej ef New York, has been rusticating in our mountain village for a couple of weeks past, aud we are glad to notice that his sojourn has bcon productive of no little physical advantage to himself, and doubt not tkat-he is enjoying his brief experience of country life with pe culiar zest and satisfaction.

Fiibd Mac Several straDge and startling events have occurred since my last communica tion to you. Mr. James Clark, assist int yard master nere, met with a terrible death ou Wed nesday last. TLe circumstances, bo tar as I could learn them, are as follows : ' Mr.- Clark bad just uncoupled a number of cars from a large freight train, for the purpose of allowing them to run down the yard, and while in the act of giving the signal to the engineer to back down against the detached cars and put thtm ic rrroiioD, another train pulleil out of the yard on the same track upon which Mr. Clark was stand ing. Wishing the engineer to see the signal he at i snip ted to pass to the opposite side between the to sections of the train, but just at that moment they came together, impaling him be tween the two hampers, crushing him in a most shocking manner and producing instant death. Mr. Clatk had been employed in the yard some seven or eight years, and on that very day had obtained lea ve of absence to go home to harvest, remarking to a friend that it was the last day he was going to railroad. He was a man of noble and generous impulses, always kind and affable, and one of the most faithful and effi cient men in the employ of the Compwny. His remains were taken to New Florence for inter ment, several societies here of which he was a faithful and houored member accompanying them to their last testing place. Peace to his ashsi. Our eity was jsst recovering from tht pro found sorrow occasioned by Mr. Clark's tragic death., when it was again thrown into the most iutense excitement and bewilderment by the announcement of ore of the most shocking su icides and attempts at murder that it has vrer been my Isrtune or rather misfortune to hear of. A man named Thomas ilerkleion, formerly in the employ of the i'a. ft. It. Co. at this place as a nia-'biuut, but more recently employed at Iteuova, had been paying attention to a very estimable youttg lady of this city named iliss Seibeats, and rumor has it that they were en-, gaged to to married. 1) this as it may, while he was absent in Kenova a mi-ndertanding areiv between them, the sequence of which it is not uecui&My to mention. MUs SeiberU, with the instinct natural to a high minded lady, be lieved keiself to be the aggrieved and injured party, and collecting together all the trinkets aud keepsakes she had received irom him, for warded them to him at Renoa. With these h also sent a note stating that all previous arrangements or agreements between them should bo of he past, and that if they ever met "uiu it would be as strangers, ileikieiou re fused t accept the packa'. however, and sent it back to U i Seibcj ts ; and in a few days after oanio to the city hiinelf. In the mean time Miss beiberts had strange prtsentimeats and fearful forebodings of the future, and when he came positively refused to see him or have any intercourse with him. After his arrival Ueiklciou got on a spree and kept it up at a feanful rate until Saturday morniur, w htm- be became comparatively sobtr and exceedingly loquacious, eupeetally to an iutimate aud con fidential friend, to whom he remarked that there would be a tragedy euactcd before night which would make a good caricature for the Police Oaaette, at tho same time rcqaesting his friend to eixi his truak, clothing, etc., to his mother. His frieud paid no attention to what ho was saying, treating it altogether as bombast. About ten o'clock the same day Markleion pro cured a foar barrelled revolver aud repaired to the scene qf the tragedy, (Mirs Seiberts' resi dence, iu the 4th waid,) and enquired if that lady was at home. Being answered iu the af firmative, he replied th.it he wiohed to have a private conversation with ber and also receive njiy token of remembrance from him which she might have in ber possession. Miss Seiberts concluded to see him, bot took tho precaution to have her mother pogted iu an adj oining room. Alter receiving the trinkets, etc., Meikleion remarked : ''Ella, if we cannot live with each other we w ill die. together.!" and drawing his re volver, he took deliberate aim at her heart and tired. Fortunately she, in her w ild and terrible excitement, sprang towards her mother's room, thus saving her lite, for instead of the ball en tering her heart it penetrated her shoulder, in tlieting a very painful though r.ot dangerous wound. Finding that he had not killed his in tended victim Meikleion ran after her, bu; her mother, hearing the report ot the pistol aud the screams of ber daughter, ran to ber aid and suc ceeded iu getting the door closed between the would-bc murderer and his helpless victim Merkleion then shot himself through the head, and died almost instantly. The unfortunate actor in this terrible tragedy was a man of lib eral education and consideiablc talent, wkich, if properly directed, would have inide hiin an ornament to society and an honor to the circle in which he moved. As a mechanic he had few superior, and when at himself was a man of w-arin aad generous impubes, and steadfast ia his attachment to his frieuds. He was a sol dier in the late war, aud was one of the bravest of the brave. Ia his younger days he acquired a Wste for nrel reading, and was passionately and lamentably fond of perusing papers that pandered to the worst passions and most de praved feelings of the human heart. He has left a poor mother, two brothers, a sister and brother iu-law to mourn lus shocking and terri ble death. Insanity is said to be hereditary in his family, and charity forbids the thought that he w as in his right Blind when he attempted to take the life of a young lady whom he evident ly loved, and destroyed his own in the appalling utaaner in which be did. A young lady, whrlc out shopping the other evoniog, was examining some very fine goods in one of our prineipal stores, when, by some means or other, Urn or twelve dollars worth stuck to her fingers. She did not discover the fact, or thought nobody else did, until Chief of Folice my gently touched her arm and request ed her to accompany him into the august pre eace of Alderman M , who kindly and politely kiformcd her that she would either have to procure bail or take lodgings for the night in the city lock up. ' Fortunately for her the prosecutor was a al lant and amiable young man, and be proposed that if she would give up the goods h Might go Elt free, and in this war the -'little unpleasantness" waa got over. ."

This popular parlor Magazine has won for itself an enviable place iu the esteem of American ladies.

Mailed, post paid, to any part of the United States on receipt ot price. This admirable work contains a complete and spirited history of the Democratic party, from its origin down to the present time. It depicts the devotion of the Democratic party to the Constitution and the laws, iu all the crises and emergencies of the country. It trices the conflict between Federalism and Democracy, and contends that the Democratic party has always been true to the Union, wheth er disunion was threatened by Northern Feder alists or Southern Secessionists. It gives a history of every interesting incident and event in each of the political parties. It gives enrnently interesting sketches of every Democratic Statesman. The book, in brief, is a vast repertory of po litical and historical facts, of profound interest to every citizen, and of value to every politician for reference. i The author's experience dates far back into the early portion of the century : he was an associate of Silas Wright ; he enjoyed the con fidence and friendship of Jackson, Van Buren, Polk, Taylor, Fillmore, Pierce, and Buchanan, and, probably better th-vn any man living, is acquainted with what the internal workings of parties have been for the last fifty years. Agents wanted to sell this book in every part of the Union. Clabe and Democratic organi sations will be supplied at special rates. D.
