JonssTows, May 17, 1869. Dear Freeman Wirt Sites was here on Saturday night lecturing on "After dark in New York." He looked liko one that knows his tubject practically. A man uamed Anderson was here all week showing up slight-of-hand in the Opera llonse. He bhowed several people how he could take money out of one's pocket with out him kuowing it. Presents for nothing don't pay. Uavld Dibsrt is patting quite a hand some addition to the upper story of the old Mansion House. Mr. Dibert is quite a pub lic spirited man. I wish other property holder would do likewise. The water works are not ony going to prove one of the most useful, but one of the most profitable institutions about town. They are laying p?pes ia all directions. The proprietors of the corner of Main and Fianklin streets, adjoining the Bank, have ordered it to be paiuted the same color that the bank building was painted a fortuight ago. Adarna' Express Gimpany continues to do a big business, showing conclusively that money ia not scarce cor trade dull iu this neck of the woods. The Judges of the Diftrick Court have decided to take Union Hall for a Court at $800 per year. It is to be thoroughly and expensively repaired by the 1st day of July. The r.othonotary uses M'Gli.ughlin's law office and the Sheriff occupies Sutton'u law office temporarily. Saturday is most especially Vie business day in our town. Tuj streets are crowded on that day. like Wall etiect, with a busy people, transacting various kinds of busi ness. The front of Frank Hay's new 6tove and tinware establishncent is quite an ornamen tal buildiug, and sets off Vashington street in grand style. Napoleon Haynes is erecting a very tine brick building in the sixth ward, which makes the fourth or filth brick buildiug that he has put up lately. Whenever ho builds a house he plants beautiful shade trees in front, on the outside of tho sidewalk, thus exhibiting a public spirit not cuiimion in this place. Edward J nes, of Millvtlle. came to his death suddenly on Friday night. M. Har rold, coroner, held aa inquet, after a post itiorttni examination, with the usual verdict of "cause unknown." There ttill be an exhibition of the Cass ville Soldiers' Orphan fc'chool in Union Hall, on tho evenings of the l'J'.h and 20th insts. Considering that these schools cost the State fur hundred and fifty thousand dollars per year the display ought to be a grand one, and no doubt it will be. -It is not certain whether it was at firet intended to make a traveling cxhibitiju out of these orphans or not. The triple alliance of France, Spain and England, that is Great Britain ngaintt the United Slates d.cs not seem to alarm the people of Johnstown much, as they are still seen out late o' nights. Although we are not well able to all mi another war about negroes t-o soon after the great rebellion, yet we bet four regiments and a gunboat could be raised litre to-morrow. The completion of the Pacific railroad did not create much excitement here, as the golden Kpike was Uot within reach, but it did one good thing. It brought us a letter from California in eleven days from Merced county. The letter was dated April 23th, and stated that corn was a foot high and that the lateness of the rains made the wheat crop look well. The wheat was shooting and some men had aa high as seventeen thous and acres of wheat sown. The lowest men tioned in the letter was eighteen hundred acres. TiiU is farming with vengeance Plowing is done either by steam or with g-ing plows, turning from three to five fur rows at ouce. A large aisount of c ra is also being put out and our correspondent says that Joiquini valley alone will raise enough of grairt to supply all California. The statement in the letter seem almost ! like fiction, but the writer is my own son, j and I never kuew him to exaggerate any- j thiug while here. He puts the amount fiurus aud worda both. lb-u lt.iv. in Cakrolitoww, May 17, 18G9. Dear Freeman Ycstetday (Whit Sunday) was a great day iu this place, being tb c casion of some seventy young children re ceiving, for the fi'-st time, the sacrament of the Eucharist. For several weeks past they had been undergoing the necessary preparatory instruction, at the hand of the Father Prior and his assistants, and on Sun day au immense, crowd from tha town and the surrounding country assembled at the church, the annual admission of children who are sufficiently advanced to receive for the first time being made an occasion of quite a grand celebration. It wji indeed an edifying sight to see thirty-six little girls and thirty-four boysthe former dres-ed in spotfesi white, emblematic of purity and innocence, and all bearing wax tapers in their handu marching in proces sion from the public school building to the church, preceded by our excellent brass band. Tbe weather was very unpropitlou until a few minutes previous to the time fixed for the starting of the procension, when snddenlyjtbe threatening clouds disap peared and the sun came out warm and glorious. It seemed as it God had lent one of his brightest smiles to irradiate tha scene and to make more glad the innocent hearts of the happy children. I would like to dwell upon the imposing services held with in the church, but it would be intruding too much upon your valuable space. It was a day long to be remembered not only by the children and their parents, but also by the large assemblage of worshippers present. Early yesterday morning quite a violent hail storm prevailed in this locality, but I believe no serious damage reunited from it. A large quantity of hail fell, most of the stones being about the size of hickory nuts. Miss Rose Griffen, a most accomplished teacher, has opened a subscription school in this place, and the daily attendance ag gregates fifty scholars. About oae o'clock this morn'ng Mr. Blosins Noel, father of our esteemed towns man, Mr. William Noel, departed this life at the age of seventy-five years. Mr. N. was a soldier in tbe war of 1812, and 45 years ago emigrated from Maryland to this coun ty, since which time he has resided in this vicinity. He had for several years been suffering under a protracted illoess. to which he has at length succumbed. Peace to his ashes. " Mr. A. Walters, formerly of Loretto, has embarked in the mercantile business in this place, and is rapidly bnilding up a custom that will insure his financial prosperity. No cleverer gentleman than Mr. W. can be f und anywhere, and tha citizens of this town and vicinity will discover that be is an hones and correct business man. An insurance agency has been established here, and our young legal friend, J. C. Easly, Eq.. appointed agent. From the frequently recurring of fires in this neighbor hood, it behoves all onr farmers to be insur ed, as a few dollars thus judiciounly expeud ed may Fxve them thousands. J have no Jjubt but that Mr. E. will do an cxtensirt business, as he represents one of the oldest and most reliable companies in the country If yon were an unmarried man. Mr. Edi tor, it would really do your heart and well known excellent judgment a great deal of good to visit this town on a Sunday, to ob serve the very handsomel adies our place can boast. I vent ue to say that Carrolltown and vicinity can produce a more beautiful and healthier looking eet of young maidens than any other portion of the county. You will find no artificially constructed forms, no rouged cheeks, or lilywhite complexions f produced by lily white) here. Poisonous cosmetics are unknown to our girls, and if you meet them at any time you will always find them the same. Albeit they have re cently commenced hiding their charms of feature beneath thooe outrageous "sun downs," which resemble an elongated pickle dish inverted. There is no case on record, however, where it can be discovered that the female portion of creation care a conti nental whether the male bipeds like their 6tyle of dress or not ; so we must ever" let them have their way. I had hoped to write you a few reminiscences of the earlier histo ry of this section of the country in this let ter; but I have not yet collected all the ma terial I desire. By my next I hopj to be able to do so. There has been a general lack of variety since my last, and if fatal acci dents, interesting elopements, or violent dog fights will not occur, your correspondent is surely not to blame. Buz Fuz. Altoosa Cit. May 18, 1869. Friend Mac On Sunday last, while sv eral little boys were playing iu the vicinity of a pood on the bill, near the lime ki ns, above East Altoona, they discovered in the water what they supposed to be a bun dle of rags. Curiobity led them to investi gate the matter further, and procuring a pole, they navigated the bundle to shore, and on opening it discovered to their horror that it contained tbo lifeless remains of a new born infant, carefully wrapped up in an old coat. Tho boys immediately made known the fact to the nearest neighbor, and in a short time the intelligence sptead like wild fire, creating the mo.it intense excitement. Men, women and children flcked to the scene of the infanticide in large numbers, followed soon after by Coroner Humes, who empannelled a jary and proceeded to bold an inquest. O.i examination it was found that the throat of the little innocent had been cut, leaving no room to doubt that it had beeu live born, and afterwards murdured and disposed of as above stated, and in ac . cordance with these facts the jury returned its verdict. Alderman llickey took charge of the remains and had thorn decently in terre 1. Who the fiendish perpetrator or per petrators of this horrible crime are has rot 3-et been discovered, but Heaven graDt that it may not long remaiu a mystery. Our city is rapidly acquiring all tho vices Qf larger and older cities, prominent among which are larceny, rape, arson and infanticide. Two several attempts were made on Tues day night last to set fire to the property of Jobc Louden, Esq., in the 3d ward, but for tunately the fires were discovered and extin guished in both instances before any damage resulted. It is very fortunata that fires mostly occur in the l.-t, 3d and 4th wards, for al.nost any other portion of the citj would he at the mercy of the devouring ele meut, there being scarcely jufticient water outeide the above wards to satisfy the crav ings of a thirsty man. We have steam fire engines and fire companies equal to the best in the State, but they are comparatively useless in any locality except the wards I have mentioned. Yet the couucilmcn from the 2d, 5th and Cth ward meet with their brother councilmen night after night, and sit with their hands in their pockets aud complacently listen to a disquisition from an expert on the beauties of having the mam moth hills in the 3d ward excavated. A stranger who would attend any of the meet ingn of our city council, could scarcely come away impressed with any other idea than that the 3d ward was the only one in the city that had any bonajide existence. Now, gentlemen represeutati ves from the 2d, 5th and 6th wards, it is time you should wake up aod mafce a vigorous effort to compel the erection by the city of water works of suffi cient capacity to supply every ward in it. 1) j not longer permit your own property, and the property of the citizens you lepresent, to be exposed to dangers which thoe in more favored portions of tbe city are iu a great measure exempt from. The directors' car of the Pennsylvania "ailroa', which has been building in tiie Company's shops in this city for some time past, received the finishing touches on Tues day last, and has been forwarded to Phila delphia, from which point it will ere long convey Vice President Scott and other rail road officials to California, by way of the Pacific railroad. The car is one of the finest and mos;t magnificently furnished that has I ever been built in this country, and is said to have cost 115.000. Our City Fathers have wisely concluded to curtail the liberty of the canine species, and prevent hydrophobia, by requiring the" owners of dorgs " to have them properly muzz'ei. Yours, &c, T. I. M.

Impohtant Invention to Mancfacttj bers of Spool Cotto. From the Phila delphia Press of the 8th inst., we clipped the following description of the spool cabinet or case recently invented and patented by our ingenious young friend and former fellow citizen, J. Patton Thompson, Esq. : "We were yesterday shown a novel and in genious invention, which bids fair to revolu tionize the Spool Cotton business of the coun try. The objection to keeping Spool Cottons at retail, hitherto, has been the trouble, an noyance, and lo-s of time incident to finding the required number, where the spoola are in discriminately thrown together in boxes or drawers, aa they usually aro in' retail . stores where spools are sold in less quantities than a uozen of one kind. The invention referred to exactly meets this want, and baa jut been patented by the inventor, Mr. J. Patton Thomp son, of the wholesale Notion House of Messrs. M. M. Marpie & Co.. of No. 53 North Third street. The article is a neat waln'it cabinet or case, composed of a series of vertical hop pers, each one made exactly to fit a. single number of spools. These hoppers are filled from the top and distinctly numbered at the bottom, where the spools are taken out while others drop into their places. It is difficult to convey in words minutely the character, beauty nd invaluable convenience of this Cabinet. Suffice it to say, that any dealer, having it in use, can see at a glance the precise condition and extent of his spool cotton stock, even to the exact quantity of each M'nbeii that he has on hand, the entire front being made of glass, ou the face of which, if manufacturer or deal ra desire it, the name of any particular make or brand of cotton mav be nicely lettered, making the whole not only an ornament and great economizer of time, but a standing ad vertisement to every customer who enters the store that a good assortment of spool cotton may there be had. As a means of bringing before the public any new or particular make' of thread, this moveable Cabinet affords the best fiicilities in the world, if manufacturers have the sagacity and erlerptise to furnish them to the retail trade, as the latter will al ways be glad to give the article relerr d to a coi spicuom position. And, as a stimulant to the general keeping and sale of epool cotton, the valuo of this invention cannot be over-estimated, as m.iny large dry-goods establishements that have hitherto declined to keep cottons, on accauut of the iucen venience already referred to, will be willing to intro duce them in their stocks, now that it can be j done without the slightest trouble, when, at j the same time, it will add so much to the ac Cjrumod.ition of their cusLomoia." : How to K.kef Cooi Now that the warm weather is coming on, the anxious housekeeper, plowing before the heated oven, will be glad to avail herself of any method of escape from its fiery atmovphere One refuge is open. Mr. S. S. Marvin, of No. 91 Liberty street, Pittsburgh, has earn ed the thanks of the toiling and exhausted hoU8ewifo by providing for her a much greater variety of superior cakes, biscuit and crackers, than any ordinary kitchen could turn out. Not only are the labor and fatigue of their preparation thus avoided, but there is actual economy in procuring from Mr. Marvin, as of en s required, his fresh, palatable and wholesome email cakes and various crackers ; inasmuch as his abundant facilities for their manufacture on a large scale enable him to furnish them at lower rates than they would cost the private housekeeper to make them at home. And yet he is scrupulously careful not to secure cheapness at the expense of quality. He makes it a p dnt to use only the best mate rials. We will not stop here to enumerate the different cakes he manufactures; each description is excellent in its kir.d Let the purchaser who desires a first class article of crackers, be sure to see that Mr. Marvin's name i marked on the box or package. He is always willing to let his work speak for itself. Your grocer selli them. I'res by'erian Banner. Highly Commendable.

Where Do You Pot Up At. Often you go to Philadelphia just for a day and want some place where you may leave your "bag" while you are running around, and where you may appoint to meet with your friends and others with whom you may have busi ness. Messrs. Wanamaker Sc Brown invite yon to "put rtp" with them. Leave your baggage in charge of the clerks at the "de livery counter" and make yourself perfectly at home in any part of their great house. If you find it to your advantage to make any purchases, well and good ; if not you will be welcome all the same. . THK secret of your looks lies with the beaver in Canadian brooks. Virtue may flourish in an old cravat, but man and nature scorns a shocking hat. So sang the poet Holmes in one of his recent poems, ar.d he might have added to that, if you want a fine summer hat, or your mother, wife or dister wants a nice dress or other dry goods at lowest price, go yourself, or send or take her to the cheap store kept by Messrs. Shoe maker, whose stock is ample, pries low, and goods unsurpassed where'er you go. Extensive Art-Gallkrt. Next to the Bible, no book is more useful than Webster's Dictionary.
