Immense Demorutration ! The Tanners in

Saturday night was to be the night of all
nights, (not excepting the Km'ghU of tke
Golden Circle,) and we determined, as is our
wont, to outstrip all our cotemporaries in
giving a full, faithful, and minute history of
all its transactions. Accordingly we direct
ed MacShane to be upon the ground "early
and often," with such assistants as the ex
tent of the demonstration and the impor
tance of its proceedings required. The re
sult is that we are enabled to give not only
au earlier, but a more detailed, history of the
occasion than can te found elsewhere.
Heaven teemed propitious, for the after
noon and evening were delighiful. Prepa
rations had been going on quietly but indus
triously throughout the day. Everything
had been admirably systematized, and the
signal for assembling was the Court Rouse
Ull.
At about 7 o'clock the Court House bell
Was rang most lustily, and torches began to
appear in the Diamond and lighted candles
in the windows. But our repoiter muat
tpcak for himself :
We found the town partially illuminated
by many of the Radicals who wisLcd to
make light of the matter. Barker had said,
"Let there be light and (of course) there
wa3 light."' We passed along the whole
length of our main street, to eDjoy and re
'jxt what lie saw.
Many of the private residences in the
Eastern Ward were brilliantly illuminated.
The moht tasteful of these Beemed to be the
piivatc rctidenco of our estimable friend,
Mr. lil.iin, the barbe-, though the dwellings
immediately weot of his were also hand
somely lighted. The residence of Samuel
Singleton, Esq., was hieroglyphically illu
minated, with strange figures iu light, re
laicding us of the Ku Klux devices, though
we are credibly informed Mr. S is rot a
member of that blood sta'nc 1 order. The
Eastern one-third of the residence of John
Williams, Esq., was also lighted haudsomc
ly.whilo the remaining iwo-ikiids. from some
unaccountable reason, remained iu outer
tlark ne3.
The residences of Geo. M. Reade, Esq.,
and Col. l'iper were dimly illummed about
half indicating, as we supposed, that they
v.cre about half pleased with the result, or
that they did nut think "the gatcc worth
the candle." llerr Fester, our German Boni
face, had n'o lighted but sparingly, owing.
tterhaps, to ti e pike of the 'canlles," which
teems the more sfracge as he is said to have
Leea a member in good staudiug of the Ger
man Jlluminali.
The domicil of our tran-guiTZ friend, Hutch
inson, of the Alhyhanian, was resplendently
lighted. Every pane of glass sported a can
dle, which made the glare dazzling and pane
ful. We think this entitles him to the most
grateful consideration, (including the Post
Office, hereafter). Indeed, as his windows
sported 72 lights, and thoe of Maj. Thomp
son only about 66, we think Tudd has the
cae on the merits.
Messrs. George J. Ilodgers, E. J. Mills,
George Huntley, end other reputable Repub
licans, did not illuminate at all.
Tlio procession of Tanners, &c, moved on
and halted opposite Valentine Parker's store.
The displi y of fire-works here, pyrotochni
cally speaking, was very fine. But some
how a premature explosion of the "balance
of the pack" of combustible matter took
place, and the gallant Tanners, having no
arms but lamps, stampeded as if the devil
or Stonewall Jackson bad been at their heels.
The danger being over, the Tanners re
formed, and marched to a bonfire which had
been prepared north of town by volunteers,
and placed on neutral ground between the
residence of Gen. M'Donald and the late
residence of Col. Piper. This consisted of a
lot of empty barrels, kegs, etc., which the
Radicals had emptied during the summer.
We bad seen Col. Piper during the day
astride of one of these vessels, on the way
to the place of execution, with all the " iva
city of one about to mount the pile.
Soon after the procession returned to the
centre of town, and were called to order op
posite Foster's, by Hon. A. A. Barker, who
said in substance, (we take bia remarks from
another reporter ) :
Fellow-Citizens We have fit- the great
battle aginst the tebils, and have got the
victory. I've bin and gone to Pittsburgh
and rid with your next President, General
Grant, from Pittsburgh to Altoona. He
didn't say much, but he's goin' to give us,
and the rest of the colored folks North and
South, our liberties. We all feel good
we've a right to feel good but we don't
feel ugly aginst our enemies. But, as I said
before, I don't want to make a speech, but
I'll call on Harry White, our Senator, that's
been and gone to the rebils, and fit them,
and was hunted by dogs, and captivated,
and imprisonated, and can tell yon all about
what we fit for, and what we won.
General White appeared on the store box,
and there was much cheerfulness. He seem
ed to think the Senate was the nicest thing
after all, and made a speech for himself in
his most blandest and agreeable style. The
question before the house, or rather before
the out of doors, with him seemed mainly to
bo, which be or his Radical opponent, Col.
Piper, was the Welshxest the General hold
ing that Piper being a Welshman only by
afliuity, and himself by consanguinity, he
was the Welshier of the two.
Th "noise and confusion" prevented ub
from hearing the General's remarks fully,
and we can only give their substance :
He thanked the assembly and the party
for nominating and electing Lira Senator,
ne had beard that there was trouble among
the Welsh, but was klad there wasn't. It
would have been all wrong. There was a
slight streak of Welsh in him. He could
assure them that one of his very most dis
tant relatives was descended from a person
who, he was credibly informed, had a little
Yfrlfch Mood in one of hi rein. And as
that Welsh blood had not been abed in the
rebellion, be felt he had a little somewhere
still. , .
This reminded us of the man who in ma
kirn n sneer-h to an Irish meeting, asserted
that though he was not an Irishman him
self, he had a brother 'who was exceedingly
fond otjjotaloes.
The General continued at some length,
and we heard him and Frederick the Great
discussing a windmill question, but did not
stay for the verdict.
Tne General, however, acquitted himself
well. His style was quite natural, and to
wards the last we thought it, in tha classic
language of Covode, Gu&er-natural.
We understand that Col. Piper addressed
a side show at the bonfire, and detailed his
last feat of equestrianism, in which he under
took to ride the rough trc tter "Democrat
and the smooth pacer -'Radical" in the can
rass, but owing to Democrat V boggling
and "Radical" sliding from undei him, he
came to the ground between thorn, and was
left horse du combat. He was net. however,
allowed full communion, but continues to
occupy a seat at the mourner's bench.
Gen. White having retired. Mr. Barker
announced that they would proceed to the
Town Hall, in procession, with music. But
where, oh where, was the band ? "Not a
drum was heard, nor a funeral note." as the
crowd, which had become dreadfully demor
alized during the spa'atig. surged to and
fro. Orlando Furioso raged around like a
Brook-(overflowing its)-bank, aud oSered
my kingdom for a" drum ! but none was
given them, and they bad to take up their
march in solemn silence.
However .'Mr. Barker's allusion to General
White having been hunted by rebi'l dogs left i
such an impression on the Tanners that they
incontinently set up fuch a howl, as they
passed the Fkeeman office, that you would
have supposed them all to be mvrr.bcrs of the
Barker family.
Arrived at the Hall, Messrs. Earkrr and
White rehearsed their pieces. Goo. M. Reade.
Esq., recitsd his authorities, Sanm-d Single
ton, E.q.,6ang or chaunted a piece, Sir Isaai
Newton spoke, not of gravitation, but with
gravity, and llr. Dick came in as a foilorn
hope, and poured a broadside into the de
funct carcass of the Democracy. As if this
were not enough, a fellow from Mr. Evaus's
U, T. K. was brought, who completed Dem
ocratic demolition. The meeting then ad
jourued with cheers, tigers, aud other orna
ments. Much confusion prevailed during the meet
ing on the Square. All parties were in at
tendance. Almost every Radical man. wo
man and child was in atteLdanca. It was a
singular fact tint while a!i the livers wiru
out of the houses the lights were iu. Even
old women of both sexes were pre:tent. While
there was a large crowd of both sexes, there
were many who.se habilimer.ts were such as
to leave their sex a matter of doubt. Fel
lows, or fellowe-saes, in every possible shape.
at,d garb, and appearance, graced (or dis
graced, as the case may be.) the meeting.
A leading man among them wore a aotcn
with the letters "P E A C F." written
uuderneath. Teace under a crown a pro
per Radical device.
The Tanners never appeared mre in char
acter. They had their caps, capes, torches,
e:c, and their hides soaking iu the liquor.
In truth, a few persons were in the same sit
uation that Wendell Phillips described as pe
culiar to their candidate they "could not
stairl up before a bottle." Indeed, one of
the banners itself was suggestive of confusion
and disturbance. It bore full s:z? portraits
of Grant and Colfax. When a Radical vo
tary looked on the face of the impuruu table
Grant he wi.s reminded to light his cigar and
smoke in the face of the speaker. When he
contemplated Colfax, with his everlasting
'smile," it put hiru in the notion of taking
a "tm'uc" too; and the crowd smoked, and
smiled until the orators and the ladieo were
pretty well smcked, and ti e smilers were,
some of them, too much involved to make
straight tracks.
The whole show wound up by some of the
Tanners, by way of keeping their hands in
for another rebellion, going outside of town
and taking a fight among themselves, which
ended, we are pleased U iay, "without detri
ment to the (.-eat of) honor of either puny."
Otherwise, the whole aflair passed ff
pieasantly, and all parties seemed to enj y
the occasion to the utmost. And as such
scenes aud occasions enhaucc the morals of
our youug men and young women, we would
suggest to that part)- which is the parly of
"grand moral ideas," whether once in four
years is often enough to have these moral
izing exhibitions.
Dead Body Fouxn. Foul Flay Suspeeted.
About six o'clock on Sunday morning last
the dead body of an Englishman, who gave
his name while living as John O'Docuell or
McDonald, was found on what used to be
known as the tow-path of the old canal, just
below the Pa. R. It. passenger platform at
Johnstown, with a terriLle g:uh in his head,
from which a great amount of blood had
flowed and congealed iu cljse proximity to
the body. It seems that the deceased, who
ha3 been in the countiy only about eight
months, and whose name was believed to
have been assumed, had been in the employ
of the Johnstown Water Company, and after
receiving his money on Saturday himself and
a companion got on a spree together, and
it being suspected that the latter killed O'
Donnell while in this condition, he was
promptly arrested on Sunday and taken to
the lock-up. We did not learn his name, but
understand he claims to have been so much
intoxicated that he has no recollection of ei
ther his own or his companion's doings on
the fatal night in question. The prisoner's
cap is said to have been found near the dead
man, and was saturattd with his blood. The
body of the deceased was still warm when
found, and money was also found in his poc
kets. We believe he had no family.
P. S. Since the above was in type we have
been told that the Coroner's jury gave it as
their opinion that the deceased had fallen
from the passenger platform, a distance of
some twenty feet, and thereby sutaincd the
injuries which resulted in his death. The
suspected party was consequently discharged
from custody, being honorably acquitted of
all blame in the matter.
Terrible Locomotive Explosion. Two
Men Instantly Killed. The engine attached
to what is known as the llollidaysburg c al
train, while being employed in shifting cars
at Duncansville, Blair county, on Monday
last, suddenly exploded its boiler, resulting
in the instant killing of the engineer. Robert
Patterson, and the fireman, Philip Davis.
Mr. Patterson, it is said, was blown over the
Methodist church in that village, a distance
of fully 6even hundred yards, and came down
an almost shapeless mass. Mr. Davis was
reared in this couDty, and bis aged father,
we believe, still resides at Belsano. Both of
the unfortunate victims were married men,
and leave large families. They were exten
sively known, and bore excellent characters.
The locomotive, of course, was almost com
pletely demolished, but we did not learn of
any other damage to property.
A little 80s of Mr. Jacob Soyder, of
Altoona, fell into a privy vault at the Logan
House, on Saturday evening last, aud tuioth

Beie' Mbstiom. The 'Mound-Builders
of Tennessee," published on Our first page,
should have been credited to the Nashville
Press of October 22d. A cavalcade con
sisting of a wagon laden with butter and
other provisions, and a number of horses and
mules, departed our town on Tuesday morn
iug last, bound for Messrs. Collins' new con
tracts on the Connellsville Railroad. It re
minded us very forcibly that business was
intended. The last we saw of our young
friend, James A. Kittell, was the top of his
head, the balance of bis body baviDg disap
peared over the brow of the hill, on his way
to the Messrs. Collins' new work at Sand
Patch. There was a horse uoder him and
two mules holding back in the rear. May
he get through safely and prosper abundant

Saturday, en route for Washington. He

met him on the train, but we did not hear
that he opened his lips to anybody else, or

deserved, wi'I give one of their inimitable

New RESTAt'BANT. Mr. A. II. Faller
has recently opened a restaurant in the room
on High street formerly occupied by Mr. R.
H. Tudor, adj ining Foster's hotel, and in
addition to candies, nuts, and confections
generally, designs keeping ijysters, pig's feet,
trine, beef 's tongue, bulogua sausage, and all
other delicacies of the season, which he will
serve in palatable style and at-inoderate pri

cious have ever been brought to this place
than Mr. F. is now serving, and he has re
duced the price fioni fifty to forty cents per
plat-. He offers the highest cash price for
pig's feet, and will buy in largo or small
quantities.
A Sad AccroENT. A young man named
John R. Edwards, who resides in Cambria
township, met with a very serious accident
in this place, at about three o'clock this
(Wednesday) morning, in consequence of
his horse falling upon him, while on hi? way
home from a wedding party at Crawford's
hotel. His nose is said to be completely
mashed, oue side of his face is terribly lacer
ated, and other injuiies about his person are
of a most painful character. No fears, we
believe, are entertained as to his injuries
proving fatal, but he w ill doubtless be dis
figured for life.
A Fikf. Stock. Ebensburg can now boast
what it never posseased before a Merchant
Tailoring establishment furnished with a su

most perfect 6tyle of the art. Mr. David J.
Evans is proprietor of the establishment, and
it is located in Reade's tew building on Cen

their glorious cause, and worthy the accept
ance of the gallant Democracy of Allegheny.
Gen. Habbt White. Cur Senator re
elect passed a portion of last week with bis
friends in Ebensburg. The gentlemen all
admired his suavity, and many of the ladies
wished "that heaven bad made thorn such

A Bold Importer and a Cool Swindle.
Our friend Elisha Shoemaker, of Oneida
township, .was recently "done" out of a small
amount of moDey, under the following cir
cumstances ; A strarger, during the early
part of the summer, called upon him in the
field where he was plowing, and represented
himself as an agent for the National Agri
cultural Department, saying that they were
about getting ready for publication, an ex
tensive work on Agricultural statistics, &c,
for which he was a', present collecting ma
terial. He gave his name as Geo. W. Bow
man, said he was stopping at the Franklin
House, in this place, and proffered Mr.
Shoemaker a copy of the work gratis, provi
ded he would furnu-h him with certain sta
tistics, and also promised him an anuual
copy of the forthcoming report, if he would
agree to furnish the Department with an oc
casional communication. In confirmation of
the truth of this assertion, he produced a
blank book of statistics, with a number of
printed questions relative to the condition
and prospects of the different crops iu the
neighborhood, the answers to which he wrote
down as dictated to him by Mr. Shoemaker,
remarking in relation to a blank space at
the bottom of the pAge, that it was for mis
cellaneous crops, which he would fill up
from other sources, and then asked Mr. S. to
sign his name to the report, which he did,
and thought no more about it till a few days
aqo, when he received a notice from the
Fiist National Bank of Huntingdon, that his
note for ninety fee dollars was due, and
upon investigation discovered to his coat that
the pretended agent had written a note for
the aforesaid amount, above his signature
in the blank space, disposed of the paper to
a third part', and immediately left for parts
unknown, leaving Mr. S. the satisfaction of
paying the amount of the note, for the priv
ilege of enjoying the no wondrous informa
tion that strangers are not all augela in dis
guise.'' We give the public the benefit of the
transaction as the next best thing to be
d-me, in order to prevent others frombeing
victimized in a similar maimer, and under
the impression that there may be other far
mers in the county who may find out they
.have similar obligations in bank maturing
at a time when they are not expecting them.
The public press may confer a beuefit on
the community by passing this notice round.

SlKGCLAR FUCAK. OF A GOBnLEIt. A
Fou(tr)Z Slory A turkey gobbler, belong
ing to Mr J. K. Wiisou, Iluutingdou c-muty,
some time during the last summer, took it
into his head to share the duties aud rtspon
sibilities of incubation mutually with bis
mate, and for this purpose insistd on oc
cupying a part nf the eggs, until forcibly
ejected and debarred from the nest, when ho
took up a position outside, where some hen
eggs were giveu him, which he immediately
took possession of andfset oh in the nvigt ap
proved style, and about a week iu advance
of the forthcoming brood of turkeys, brought
forth, ah ovo, a fine lot of young chickens,
which were duly caret! for by him till the
turkey fgg-s were hatched, when the chickens
were taken from him and adopted iuto the
family of a benevolent hen, and the brood of
young tujjteys were divided between him
aDd his mite, he taking charge of his por
tion with the titmo&t apparent delight, and
rearing with all th solicitude of the most
matronly hen, until they were full grown
and able to dispense with his parental over
sight and protection. Tbe truth of this
singular story is vouched for by persons of
the highest respectability. Who can beat
it ? Journal.
On a High. Old Boreas is having a high
old time of it as we go to press, aud those
who have not yet prepared themselves against
the inclement seasou so near at hand, should
be reminded by his blowing that new is the
time to go to Huntley's extensive establish
ment and buy a heating or cooking stove, of
which he has a very large assortment of the
most approved patterns, and which he will
sell fully as cheap as they can be bought
singly from the men who made them. Mr.
Huntley has thousands of other articles in
his store, which he can and will sell at as
low prices as any dealer in his line of traffic.
Financial Tbocblks. There has been
some quaking in the Eastern cities in regard
to a financial crash for the last few days,
but al present all fears seem to be allayed.
No one need comprehend any danger of this
kind in this vicinity who buys his dry goods,
groceries, and all other merchandise at the
celebrated cheap cash store of J. Patton
Thompson, neit door to tbe Bank, as he can
save money enough to keep afloat, no matter
whose financial bark goes under.
'Vert Seldom." The days are getting
exceedingly short, and those who find the
long evenings wearisome, should not forget
that the most entertaining and beneficial,
mode of putting in time is in the perusal of
snch books and periodicals as may be found
at all times at the great wateh, clock, jew
elry, 6ewing machine, notion and periodical
depot of C. T. Roberts, who sells many of
the best periodicals and standard works is- I

What Tfut Saii. We rerheard a

declare mo.-t positively that they had never
examined so extensive and beautiful an as

they saw at the great emporium of Leopold

others we say, go thou and do likewise.
A Fixed Fact. If ..here is any one thing
more certain than another it is that V. S.

prises the most varied, elegant and cheapest
assortment ever introduced into this market,
and no person can fail to be ple-ised with

Mr. John Farnwalt, of Indiana county, and
Miss Minnie Shorteucariher, of Ebensburg.
Our generous friend, "mine host" of the
Crawford House, gave the happy couple and
their friends, of which we were one. a free
"blow out." There was a season of enjoy
ment at the hospitable board. The auxiety
fur the prophetic rine, which had been im
bedded in delicious wedding cake was intense,
but tre obtained the prize. And though,
for family reasons, we are not likely to be
the ."next man married." we hope that
the happiness of the wedded pair may, like
our ring, have no eud.
