LOCAL AND PERSONAL.
Youso man, go to school ; you will never
regret it. Go to the best school. Write for
a circular of the State Normal School. Ad
dross J. A. Cooper, Edinboro, Pa.
Brief Mentios. We invite attention to
the legal card of Messrs. Kopelin & Dick.
The senior is one of the most talented prac
titioners in the State, and the junior is a wor
thy young gentleman who is determined to
win his way to success. Mr. E. Roberts
has opened out in his Dew, handsome and
commodious store room, and may now con
sider himself the possessor of one of the finest
business houses in Cambria county. Prof.
H. H. Hughes, who recently returned from
a visit to the West, is making an effort to
get up classec in vocal music. He is an ex
cellent teacher, and should have no difficulty
in securing scholars. Our young friend
Jacob Zimmerman. Jr., of Johnstown, paid
us a pop visit on Tuesday. Jake is an earn
est and talented young Democrat, and his
voice has been frequently heard during the
present campaign in advocacy of the good
cause. It. W. Hunt, of Johnstown, it is
said, has prosecuted J. F. Campbell & Son,
of the Altoona Vindicator, for libel in pub
lishing a statement to the effect that Mr.
Hunt had attempted to hire a man named
Coleman to work for the Cambria Iron Co.,
with the understanding that he should vote
f r Mr. Morrell. Wm King, who escaped
tium the Greensburg jail on election day,
stole another horse near Laurelville, in that
county, and was traced to Ligonier, but
there mcceeded in eluding his pursuers, and
both him and the horse are still missing.
A man named Painter was recently commit
ted to the Indiana j lil for tearing down fences
and using the rails f r fire wood, and it is
ijow suspected that he is the same individual
who was ariested in 1805 on suspicion of
jx'i.ioniiig his wife and killing his child in
Westmoreland county, but who then escaped
from the ftieers who had him in charge.
Nine cars of a stock train, eastward
b und, were wrecked, and a number of cat
tie mid hugs killed, five miles below Alt ona,
on .Sunday last, in consequence of the train
i-ing thrown from the track by theburstiug
of a wheel. Mr. William Hileman, of
Frankstown, Ilair county, was thrown from
a wngon at Huntingdon, on Wediiesdjy.
and hud his collar bono broken and was
otherwise injured Four or five sections
i f the Com. ellsville KaMroad have been a-
warded to Metwrs. P. & T.. Collins The
Champion, heretofore published at New Cas
tle, Pu., has been removed to Moravia, Law
rence county. Fa- John M'Coy, Carroll

An Appalling Sikikb The usually
quiet village of Summitville was painfully
excited, on Sunday last, by the discovery
that Mrs. Catharine Oitcrson, a most esti
mable widow woman residing in that place,
had committed suicide by hanging herself to
n bed pos-t in her own dwelling. The deed
wns doubtless committed while her neigh
Ixjrs were at church, a ad as she lived alone
tit the time, no one of course was present
to prevent the act or give the alarm in time
t" five her life. Sonc of her friends called
at the honse on their way to church, but
found the outside doors fastened, action their
return, the doors being still fastened, broke
cue of them open, and entered to find in one
of the upper chain iters, the unfortunate wo
mau in a sitting posture, with her head
thrown b.uk, the roll's lightly drawn about
her neck, and h r life eiunct.
Mis. Ottersou has been a resident tf Sum
Initville for fully twenty years, but a few
month ag she disposed of her personal pro
perty and departed for California, where two.
or perhaps three, of her sons and one i f her
daughters have been living f.r several years,
l-'iom this vUit t-he retnrnad only about two
weika previous to her tragic death, since
which time it hes been apparent to her
fi lends that he was somewhat d ranged in
mind, but nothing serious was apprehended
from her condition. The unfortunate woman
owned the property she occupied, and was
otherwise comfortably circumstanced. Ru
mor even has it that between five and six
hundred dollars in gold and a couple of hun
dred in greenbacks were found secured about
her per.-on after her death. It is also said
that hhe lost considerable money (a deceased
brother iu California having bequeathed her
several hundred dollars) while on her return
nip from that State, and this loss, if it be
true, may have preyed upon her mind and
induced the terrible act which ended het ex
istence. We knew Mrs. Otterson for many years,
and always eMeeuied her a kind mother, a
good neignbor and an exemplary Christian.
It is therefore with feelings of sincere sorrow
and regret that we chronicle her deplorable
and tragical death. Two of her daughters
(married) reside in this county, and among
her relatives may bo numbered some of the
Lest citizens Cambria can boast of.
Cling Close to the Rock. A long traiD
of cars, fourteen or fifteen, were recently
passing over the Allegheny Mountains, on
their way eastward. They were crowded
with passengers. As the iron botse snorted
at'd rushed on, they began to descend, and
needed no power but the invisible power of
gravitation to send them down with terrific
swiftness. Just as the passengers began to
lca'.ize their situation, they came to a short
curve cut out of the solid rock, a wall of
rock lying on each side. Suddenly the steam
whistle screamed as if in agony. "Put on
the brakes, put on the brakes," but with no
apparent slackening of the cars. Every
window flew open, and every head that could
be was thrust out to see what the danger
was, and every one rose up in their places,
fearing sudden destruction. What was the
trouble ?
Just as the engine began to turn in the
curve the engineer saw a little girl and her
baby brother playing on the track. In a
moment the cars would be upon them. The
shriek of the whistle startled the little girl,
and every one looking over could see them.
Close to the track in the upright rock was a
little niche, out of which a pieco of rock had
been blasted. In an instant the baby was
thrust into this niche, and as the cars came
thundering by the passengers, holding their
breath, heard the clear voice of the little sis
ter, on the other Bide of the cars, ring out,
'Cling close to the rock. Johnny, cling close
to the rock !" And the little creature snug
gled in, and put his head as close to the rock
as possible, while the heavy cars whirled
past him. And many were the moist eyes
that gazed, and a silent thanksgiving went
tip to heaven. Indiana Messenger.
Fatal Accident. -A young man named
Feter Kinney, aged about 22 years, was in
stantly killed, on Friday last, by the upset
ting of a wagon, while returning from Johns
town to his home in Jackson township. The
bed of the wagon feil upon his neck and ei
ther broke it or strangled him to death. His
mother was riding with him at the time, but
fortunately fell under the wagon lid In eucb
way u to Cocaps injury.

WRITTEN BT PKTROLECM V- NASBT, JR.
Mr. Editor Sircumstanaes sometimes al
ters cases. I had a monstrous big letter
wrote for you, but owhv tew a defect in the
gudgeons of the elecBhun machinery, the
letter didn't suit, and so the labor was all
lost. Hearin' the elecohun news I tuck sud
denly ill with cramp, colic, arid gittin' bet
ter I tuck a tramp tew the Confederate
Cross Roads" tew see my Uncle. He told
roe tew jine the Tanners agin and he would
stick tew the Dimocrats, and ef he got an
offis he would sheer with me, and ef I got
an offis I must sheer with him. So when I
cum back the committee of three hundred
was waitin' fur me with one hundrei in
greenbacks. They sed that was mine ef I'd
write fur them tew the elecshun in Novem
ber. So I jined the Tanners agin. The first
man I seed was Mr. M'Donald, head ceoter
fur Ebensburg. Sez I, "J-e-o-s-e-p-h,"
sperkin' as sweetly as I could. Sez I, "J-e o
s e-p-h, how's the elccthun 1V He was a
settin' on a split bottom chair with one elbw
on one knee and t'other elbow on tother
knee, and his hands embracin' his chin, and
as I hadn't hearn the news, sez I, "J-e-o-s-e-p-h,
how's the elecshun V S z he,
" Umjtglt !" Sez I, "How are you District
Attorney?" Sez he. "I'mjyM" Sez I,
"It's an up-hill bizness runnin' onto the Rad
ical ticket, isn't it?" Sez he, "Umpghl"
That's all he would say. Ho reminded me
of Mr. Evans readin' the "Raven" and say
in' "Never more!" But as J-e-o-s-e-p-h was
always clever. I thought I'd let him take the
rest of his own choosiu', and I left him alone
in his glory. The next mau I seed was a
sick man in the cats. He was a h-anin' for
ward ami restin' ona elbow on one knee and
t'other elbow on tother knee, w ith his hands
embraciu' his ears, like the pidur of Maj r
Andre. I heerd some one say "Glory to
God," and so I tho't the man was a dyin
I went up aud saw it was Mr. Covodo of
Westmoreland. So I shuck him up. and
sez I, Mr. Covode, "How did the elecshun
eo in your district?" Sez he, "Umpgh !"
Sez I, "How are you. Cony rest, man ?" SiZ
he, " Umpgh !" So I condoled onto him and
told him that as he couldn't make a speech
any way he mout let Mr. Foster do that,
and then he could keep a contestin' of the
elecshun onto spring, and then draw his pay
and milage. Sez I. "That wou'd be viy
policy." Sez he " i'wy.t" The next man
I seed was Mr. Morley. He was a settin
ontj a cane bottom chair, with one dhow
onto one knee and t'other on tother knee,
with his two hands embracin' his hair. Sz
I. "Mr. Morlev. how's the elecbhuo?" Sez
he, UiiijiyJi !" Sez I, "How are you. As- !
rtmllymanl" Sez he, Umpqh !" Sez I, !
"How is colonizin' goin' on ?" Sez he,
Umpgh .'" So. as he wouldn't say nothhi',
I started tew hum. and as I was passin' the
Company's Store, 1 thungk of the elecshun
returns aud tuck the cramr. colic. I then
went in ttw the store and sot down outo a
chair, with one elbow on to one knee, and
t'other on tother and my hands embracin'
myself, and the first man I seed was Mr.
Boggs. Sez he. "Nasby. how's Ohio?" Sez
I, ' Umpgh " Sez he, "How's Fennsylva
uia ?" That riled me, and sez I, D e m o-c-r'a-t-i-c."
I sed this with pain. Sez he,
I'll bet the isters 3'ou can't prove it's Dim
ocratic." Sez I. "D ne!" Well, sez he,
Trove it." "Welt." sez I "If General
G; tint would get two of the largest States
onto the Union and more than half the rest,
wouldn't you sa3' that the U:iion went Re
publican ?" S z he. Let me see ! Yes. in
course I would." Sez I, "Would j'on bet
theistersoi.toit?" Sez he. "Yes!" "Well,"
sez 1, '"that's why 1 bet on Pennsylvania.
The Democrats carried Philadelphia and
Berks, two of the largest districts in the
State, and a majority ot the counties besides.
They carried thirty-flve counties and the
Radicals only thirty one." "By golly!"
sez he, "I'm in for the isters." Then he
laffed till he shuck and then said, "LeCs
have the inters." So we both started fur
Fend's, but as there were ditches dug for
water pipes, he fell into the last ditch,"
and stuck at. Ho implored me tew help
him out. I told him to cheer for Seymour.
and I would. So he had tew cheer for Sey
mour and Clair. Then I prized him out
with a board, still hoKerin' "get aboard,"
till he got out. Rut his clothes bein' splut
tered, he wouldn't buy the isters, s-ayin' that
he had been taken in twice. The next man
I seed was Mr. M'Shane. S. thinks I. I'll
make him say umjKh too. And sez I, "Me
Shanc, how d'yo feel over the elecshun ?"
St z he. "Never give up the ship!" lie then
rubbed his face with both hands and laffed ;
and we parted in good cheer, believin' that
the elecshun will be n versed next time, as
the predestidigifatonal influence of the last
victory will thro-w us Tanners into a kind of
Rip Van Winkle sleep, while the Dimocrats
will, for one time, become "Wide Awakes."
When we parted, I started tew hum tew
trim my lamp fur Saturday nite, which is
this nite. We are goin' tew have ninety
mules from Millville in processhun. It was
them that swelled the Millville elecshun
ninety votes. It must uf been the mules,
for they say that there was no colonized
voters there, and Millville hain't the popu
lation to vote that ticket unless the mules
vote. We don't see why they shouldn't vote
as well as niggers and other animals uf the
Radical party. I'm sure they are ass-essed !
The procesfhun was a tremenjus affair.
When we formed, one wing rested onto the
old Mansun Houe sign-post, the other wing
on Brady's sign-post, and the middle onto
the Granted Ilallafax scaffold. The pro
cesshua passed along all the streets and
liquored at forty taverns and drinkin' sa
loons, besides havin' Grant whiskev in the
wagons. We had a bone-fide bone-fire onto
the Public Square. Some of the preacliers
had their windows illuminated preparin' for
heaven and the Postoffis. Look in' along
the line of processhun, with lamps all a-fire,
it looked like the imps of Hades stirrin' up
the fire and brimstone. They looked like
ajrprenticcs at the biziness, and no doubt it
will be their trade hereafter. The mottos,
devices, banners and fltgs would be worthy
a special notis, but want of room precludes
any such notis, here, M'Garry had the
devil, full size onto his window, and the
Tribune offis was blazin' with a true pictur
of the "Red Sulphur Springs," with Lincoln
and Stevens in the ceoter. asd Grunt and
Hallafax a crawlin in. We're goin' to keep
up the excitement till the elecshun, because
our preacher said that we must make our
"callin and elecshun shure." The Fifth
Lieutenant is bettin' all around. He has a
bet with a big, stout woman. She is to
knock him doun if Seymour is elected, and
n'c versa if Grant is elected.
Yours in the wool, Nasbt, Jr.
Pittsburg, Oct. 24, 1868.
P. S. which ra Postscript. If Grunt is
elected there will be three com pedi tors fur
the postoffis the present incumbent, the
man that lost his vote by bettin' onto the
elecshun, and a Radical preacJier. N., Jr.
N. B. which is Nota Bena. We Radi
cals nd Tanners are gettin' suspicious about
Grunt bein' a Dimocrat, and turnin' Tyler,
Fillmore and Johnson onto us. We hav'
ben beat that way so oftenjthat we're gettin
skeered. His smokin and sayin1 nothin'
looks mity queer. If he docs, won't we bo
ashamed of our proscBBbuns? N. Jr.
New Stock. Judge Murray has but re
cently returned from Philadelphia,- and the
result of bis visit may now be seen at the
extensive store of Messrs. Lemmon & Mur
ray, in shape of a most exquisite display of
valuable and magnificent jewelry, a com
plete Btock of books and stationery, drugs of
ail kinds, tobacco and cigars which excel in
quantity and quality any like stock ever
brought to this place, and an almost endless
profusion of fancy goods and notions of all
descriptions. We never saw such beautiful
sets of jewelry as are now displayed in the
show esse at this establishment, and we are
sure the entire stock just received will please
the tastes and suit the wants of the many
people who patronize this liberal and enter
prising firm.
Rhymks tor the Times. Flour to bake,
soap by the cake, potatoes to boil. Metro
politan oil, tobacco to chew, apples to stew,

all else you could wish, besides many things
more, at Oatman's cheap -store, can be bought

ther delay, and buy all things they may
want, pure fresh and sweet, on famous High
street. So dou't fail to call, good people all,

best in the town.
Even So Evans, O! Such of our rea

b? in'erested in knowing that Mr. E- D.
Evans has just received a full, complete and
varied assortment of dry goods, dress goods,
notions, groceries, and innumcrab'e other ar
ticles, at his extensive store in that village
and is now better prepared than ever to com
pete in stock and prices with any dealer in
the county. Ed. is a clever, enterprising
and deserving gentleman, and we feel sure
that all who buy from him will get the full
worth of their money in the best kind of
merchandise.
Worth Remembering AmiJ all the
turmoils of political strife and every day life
it is worth while for every farmer, mechanic,
laboring titan, and all other classes, to bear
in mind that at the great house, shop and
farm furnishing emporium of George Hunt
ley every article of bard ware, tiuware, glass
waie, wiK'envare, and almost every other
kind of waie. can be had, in large or small
quantities, at as low prices as like goods can
be purchased in towns of much larger pre
tensions. Mr. Huntley has everything worth
keeping, aud permits no dealer to undersell
him.

store aud offered very cheap for cash.
Wit.L IIk? Gov. Seymour on his way
from Pittol urg te Philadelphia, will scarcely
find time to address the citizens of J hns
town, but it might not be antjfS. and it
would require but a moment or two. fr him
to advise the people thereabouts to buy all
their fall and winter clothing at the famru
establishment of M. Cohen & Bro., Parke's
iron front building, Main street, J hnstowu.
The advice would be excellent, and for fear
he should fail to do it we hereby give it on
our own responsibility.
Liberty ob Death! Friends and conn
try men now is the time to prepare for the
"cold, chilly blasts of December" and the
other winter months. Very little money i
needed to buy warm, handsome and service
able clothing at the renowned ''Star Cloth
ing Hall" of James J. Murphy, Clinton
street, Johustown. His goods are of the
best mak and material, and bis prices are
down to the lowest notch.
Something i.s You, Tn so exterrive,

certainly be some article, dear readers, which
you sheuld buy for yourself, your wife,
mother, sweetheart or friend. Go and see if

Tastefully Arbanged. The show win
dows, show cases, shelves, etc., at V. S. Bar
ker's extensive store are very tastefully ar
ranged, and the large and beautiful assort
ment of goods recently received is displayed
to the best advantage. The stock of Furs
and other winter goods at this establishment
are unsurpassed in beauty and extent, and
every article is offered as cheap as it can be
Bold.
The True Policy. So much has been
raid of late about the policy of the two can
didates foi the Presidency, that many people
may have forgotten the best policy for them
selves to pursue is to buy their merchandise
at the cheap cash store of R. R. Davis,
where all classes, ages and sexes can be sup
plied with almost any article they may de
sire at the very lowest prices. Don't over
look these facts.
Ladies' Fubs. A beautiful assortment
of Furs, of all qualities, shades and prices,
have just "been received and are now open
for inspection at J. Patton Thompson's cheap
store, next door to the Ebensburg Bank.
Now is the time for our lady friends to buy
their furs and boy them at fair prices, at this
popular mercantile mart. Go and see the
splendid assortment.

RADICAL TORCHLIGHT PROCESSION ON FRIDAY NIGHT.
t--- -r- i i
A Big Barker and Little "Cur" on the Eampage!
A Radical Ex-Congressman appears in his natural character or
Carpet-Bagger from the Slate of Maine!
The Radicals of this place, on last Friday night, got up a very small torch light proces
sion iu honor of their very small triumph at the recent election. It was witnessed by all
our citizens, and it is not therefore necessary that we should give a full description of it.
The most noticeable and prominent feature of the display was the performances of Ex
Congrcssman A. A. Kahkkr and his little -Cur," which are as accurately sketched above
as our special artut could perform his task.
We do not know why Mr. Barker personated the odious character of a carpet-bagger.
Perhaps he thought he was making a decided hit; and t-o he did. for iu that motley pro
cession he was the Lit representative and counterpart, of four fifths of the men from New
England who now misrepresent seven of the Southern States in Congress. Nevertheless
we were completely astounded to see Mr Darker perform the part of a clown in this low
farce. It is, however, a meie matter of taste. Yet this we know, that in view of the po
sition heretofore i-eld by him, as well as of the sorry exhibition he made of himself, maDy
of his Radical friends, as they watched the procession, looked upon Us central figure, A.
A. Darker, with feelings tf mortification and nhame. As to the vain and frisky "Cur" that
followed in his footsteps, we leave him with the remark that every -Cur" must have his day.

An Old Citizen Gone John Dougherty.
Esq , one of the oldest citizens of Uollidays
burg, died in that place, on Friday last, at
the patriarchal age of seventy odd years.
Mr. Dougherty was proprietor of the United
States Hotel for a -number of years, and to
distinguish him from another gentleman of
the same name the sobriquet of "Whisky
John" was conferred upon him, and by that
title he wa known far and near. In the
days of the old Portage Railroad his house
was one of the most popular resorts in the
country, and few hotels earned a more envi
able repatation. Mr. Dougherty was a man
of generous impulses and strict integrity, and
we doubt whether any man ever went to 1 is
grave with more friends or fewer enemies.
None who knew him will hear of his death
with ether feelings than those of regret..
May his soul rest in peace.
Imorest'8 Youno America. The ju
veniles are full of glee over the reception of
an enlarged number of this popular little
magazine. More pictures, more stories,
more puEzles, more of everything that the
children are in love With, is involved in this
jubilant event, which must have sent up the
Young America subscription list like a rock
et. Certainly there is no other magazine
like it for the young. Publication office.

AS AH APERIENT,
There is no medicine so much in favor with
those who are acquainted with their action a
Roback's Blood Pills ; they are safe, pleasant
and mild in their operation, and are purely veg
etable ; can be taken by children as well as by
adults ; try them.
SLEEPLESS NIGHTS.
As a remeJy to soothe all rervoos excite
ment, and iu its truest sense a nebvixk, there
Is, perhaps, uo medicine extant which in received
with so much favor as Uobaek's Stomach Bit
ters A wine glass fu'l on goin to bed U all
that is required to produce sound aud healthful
sleep.
ERYSIPELAS,
Or, 8t. Anthony's Fire, can be most effectually
eradicated by the use of Roback's Blood Puri
fier in conjunction with Roback's Blood Tills.
OPTHALMIA,
Or, Infl immation of the Eyes, not unfrequent
ly arises from a disordered state of the stomach;
a few doses of Roback's Blood Pills will, iu
most cases, effect a cure by removing the cause
KEEP YOltt BLOOD PURE.
There are no remedies, now belore the public,
so w ell calculated to purify the blood and re
construct (o to speak) the whole system as
Hoback'e Blood Purifier, Blood Pills and Stom
ach Bitters.
BAD TASTE
In the month in the mornu.g is aneofthesymp
toms of a bilious condition or disordered state
of the liver, and should not, for a single day,
be neglected, as it is but the premonitory symp
torn of a train of crils and the very feeds of
disease. Procure at Ouce Rob 'tk's Blood Pil s,
administer them according to the directions ac
compunying each box. ard the difficulty and
danger of disease will at once be removed.
NOT A BEVERAGE.
Unlike most of the bittera of the present day.
Dr. Roback's are not intended as a pleasant
stimulating whisky beverage, but are perfectly
medicinal, containing only sufficient pure bour
bon whisky to hold in polutlon the medicinal
extractive matter from hkh they arecompoaed.
