J..hn C r, E q . late Cuntv Tressurvr. on Friiay la.st handed over all documents, loose change, and ether matters pertaining to the office, to Lis suc cessor, Lieut. Win. Linton, who has essutned the duties cf the position. While there cau be no doubt that Mr. Linton will roaks an honestfaithful, energetic and popular officer, it is cot saying too much for Mr. Cox to state that his departure from among tts is a source of sincere regret to alt who have bad business intercourse or held social compan ionship with him. lie is esteemed alike by political friend and foe. and we feel 5ure that all will j in iu wishioit htm abundant success in tie fu'.ura pursuits of life. Had he been eligible and desired a second term, he would have been re-elected, by an overwhelming majority, as a fitting tribute to his character as a gentleman and a faithful public servant. Dr. Fields A gentleman residing in thisjlnce called In a few days since sod in formed us that he wis in tbe office of Dr. A. P. Fields ind saw h'm cx -m'ni a gentleman who hi-d several diseases. The Doctor felt the rati em's pulse si;d told him how he felt and what hia dieaises vers without asking a singla question In reference to them. The Doc'or remarked that he could do so in every case, and wonld not consider hlaisp'f competent to admibister medicine if b lacked that knowl eije of dUetse. Oar Informant as3ured us that the Doctor has a'ready secured a large prac tice, ar.d it is Increasing daily. He has two diplomas h-. ng'ng in hi office one of the Uni versity aa i the other of the Eclectic Medical College, both of Philadelphia. The Doctor says that b narer administered a dose of calo mel in his Hfe, as It creates a worse disease than it cares. Is Luck. Dr. J. W. Ipenberg, of Al tooua. his been fortunate enough to secure the entire right of Blair county to use L. Stuck "s pated tor vulcanite dental pistes. This plate is made oti bait thinner and one-third strong er than the old style plate made by all other dentists in the county. Ttie plate is polished on both sides alike. The Doctor agrees to work as cheap as any den'ist in the county, and any person who gets a aet of teeth from Mia and does not like the style, cao hava them put up on the old style without extra charge at any time within a year. Here is a chance to get good work on moderate terms. Go and see specimens at No. 016 Twelfth street. East Al toona. 2t. An Iowa bride, according to a journal of that Bute, "is a merry, warra hearted, level headed, truthful little angel manufactur ed expressly for tbe chp who got her." If the "chap who got her" appreciates his "little angel" he will bring her all the way to Ebens burg and buv her an abundance of dress goods and numberless other articles at the cheap store of V S. Barker. Valhe has goods to please "little angels" and big ones too, as well as common people, and will give all classes more then the worth of their money, if they call aoon and often. The Last and Best. We think washing machines have at last reached the acme of perfection at least we can conceive of nothing that could excel the Patent Cata ract Boiler Washing Machine, for which Mr. George Huntley has recently obtained tbe ex clusive right of manufacture and sale in this coanty. They are the best things out. One of them washed one hundred and thirty odd piecee the other day in one hour and twenty five minutes, and did it perfectly. A child of ten years old oau operate the machine. Go and see it, housekeepers, and judge for your selves. What Sas Said. "That's splendid Sour 1" was the exclamation of our "b;tter half," as we sat down to the last dinner w ate, and when we arose from the table w weie convinced that splendid was the word to nie. We bought tbe flour from E. J. Mills, and better bread than it makes never passed humau Hps. Tbe moral conveyed ia buy your flour from Mr. Mills, and you will be sure to get a good article at a fair price. Evan if the communication relative to "Mlsa Annie E. 'Diconeon's' Lecture" waa worthy of publication, (and on Its own merits it don't amount to shucks.'") we would "Nxao Drw iTT," for the simple reason that it ia anony mous. The person who hasn't sense enough to know that a bona fide name should accom pany an original communication to a newspa per, hasn't sense enough, to write anything worthy of publication. kvocal Correspondence. Johkstowk, Jan. 24, 1870., Dear Freeman On Wednesday last we aw two victims of the ore drifts carried home from Prospect Hill on litters. Their names are Jameu Vinton and Harry Bennett, and they were injuitd by a premature ex plosion of powder with which they were blasting ore. One of them has since had his leg amputated and the other is veiy bad ly though not dangerously injured. SCHOOLS AND 6CH0LAK8. Johnstown has a regiment nod Millville half a regiment of pupils attending school. A god place for obstreperous youth. We have been informed that the Leg isla ture contemplates making an entie new school law. We are opposed to this. The present law is deficient iu tuany things, but the present Legislature is not the body to make auy salutary improvements. The di rectors are now acquainted with the present formulas and the manner of transacting business, and if a new Fystem be inaugurated everybody will be as ignorant aa a lawyer of the new regulations. IMPBOVEJIKSTB. We would, however, suggest tbe following amendments : Abolish all offices that takes the money from the district and do away with printing fifty thousand dollars' worth of useless blanks aud senseless county super intendent's reports. The Logislature has stopped the printing of the "Legislative Re cord." Let them extent tho reform. Tbe law never contemplated tbe printing of the reports of conuty superintendents. LKCTl.RE. Ann Dickeusuu. or her fchost, did appear at the lime appointed, and did loctu.e on "Nothing Ouroabanable," akbo' Bhe called it "TVhitrd Sepulchre," just for a change. The substance cf the lecture, however, was the same. Anna is about the size of a wo man, has a vuico like a man, except when she pitches in, and then she makes a sound much like that produced by the axis of the earth during a total eclipse. Bhe does not gesticulate much, but she shakes her left fist and clutches her right hand as if she would like to pull everybody's hair. Her rhetorical flights rrswtiibie those of a" goose with one wing clipped, and her dictum is not of that kind found in the diction try. She wonld have had a full hou.e only for the re served seats, which meaus empty seats. The fact that holders of season tickets were noti fied that they wuulJ be charged twenty-five cents extra for each member of the family toas significant. Anna's subj-ct ia Kngliah was 'Mormons and Womau's Rights," and her argument redifccd to a syllogism etauds thus: Mormon men have more wives than one. Women are meu ; therefore women have a right to more husbands than one. OVFICE HOLDERS' WIDOW. It has become a fashion of late, when an office-holder dies, to give hia widow all the balance of the money which he did not steal himself while living. The N. Y. Tribune urges Congress to make a "liberal" donation to Wi.low Stanton at least one year's tala ry for her husband nof having been Supreme Judge. Now when it is well knowu that Stanton did not die poor, and that one hun dred, perhaps two hundred thousand dollars have been raised (or her by private subscrip tion, while at least one huudred thousand soldiers' tcidoKS are washing, scouring and scrubbing for a living, this proposition seems preposterous. Still Congress would call this econom y ! TKS WEATHER. Farmers are beginning to think that this opeu winter, with warm day and freeciug nights, will be very severe on the grain now ia the ground. We hope, however, and be lieve that snow will eoon come, and that there will be "lots and gobs" of auow yet bufore ccru-piautiug time, the 10th of May. QERMAK CATHOLIC CHCHOH. By accurate measurement and computa tion, the number of bricks in the German Catholic church are B26.000. The brick were made at the brick woiks of the Johns town Manufacturing Co., and the church was built under the direct fupervh-ion of Mr. John Drumgold, of Al.ooua. THAT CHICKEH. A chicken half dressed that is, plucked but not dihemboweled has been hanging out on Washington street , as a sign that a cAicfon ean be bought there, ever since Cii'ititiuaB. It must be pretty well friz by this time. Now we would like to get that chicken out of the way, but do not want to eat it. Suppuse. for instance, that some be nevolently disposed person would buy it and donate it to the poor, destitute Mrs. Stanton. A BALL. St. Peter's Benevolent Society have ctn cluded to bav a ball on the last night of this month at Hansman's Hall, ou the Rich land road, about a quarter of a mile from the center cf town. Hacks will run from the hotel to the Hall. There is nothing so good for the health as plenty of innocent Jun. and on this occasion good music and better dancing may be fN pec ted till the morning of February 1st. 8UKPLC8 rrjHD. The Borough Cauncils report a surplus fund of $9,000 on hand. Now would be a good time to fix up the Public Square. With a good iron fence, a few evergreen trees, a water jet or two, a fountain in the ceuter and a grass award, this Square would be an "ernameut to the people goiog by." Let us have it by all means. Gentlemen of Council, what say ye7 STILL AT IT. In the last Borough Council meeting Mr. Lay ton charged the Cambria Iron Company or somebody else with filling up the Cone maugh river with cinders, thus obstructing the passage of the water and giving Johns town the dammed water back on them. If the charge is true it ought to be attended to, or we might have another pumpkin floo'l. BEVIVAL8. There are revivals going on in all the Pro testant churches in town, and many are re ported as getting religion. We do know that there ia room for reformation. While there are many good people in our town, it cannot be denied that corruption still reeks in high places. This we know to be a fact. POOB FELLOW. An old editor named T. 8. Re id, who. as her says, made John Covode, (or Govode,) and John Covode went back on him, is can vassing oar town for a history of his life. Though we differ with him in politics, yet he has been unfortunate, and we wish him lots of good luck and many subscribers. Yours, RB Rot. St. Augustine, Jan. 24, 1870. Dear Freeman Tbe Fair at Chest Springs in aid of St. Augustine's church closed on Thursday night last, and the result has been most gratifying lo both clergy and congre gation. During the two weeks it continued nothing occurred to mar the harmony and good feeling which marked the enterprise from first t- last, all having vied with each other in promoting that nnity of action and kindness of feeling which in such cases sel dom if ever fail of success. The ladies who presided at the different tables deserve the highest mede of praise for the indefatigable industry, the winning urbanity and the un affected grace which they brought to the die charge of their arduous duties. The mem bers of the Young Men's Catholic Associa tioa also deserve honorable m eut ion for tbe seal and efficiency with which they fulfilled the part allotted to them, and those who so liberally expended their money ehould not be forgotten when credit is to te awarded for the success of the Fair. Vhat that suc cess was may be iuferred from the fact (com municated to me by our Rsv. pastor) that the net proceeds amount to over $1,000 certaiuly a large sum to be tailed in this ouf of-the-way region. . We had bo pad to be favored with frequent visits from our friends of neighboring con gregations, but were somewhat disappointed, owing in part, we are told, to the bad con dition of the roads during the second week, but caused principally no doubt by tbe al leged scarcity of money which prevails in those several localities. Still the Fair real ized more than good judges of nuch matters would have ventured to predict, and will long be remembered with pleasure by our people. I append a report of the number of votes caft for the clergyman's stole, as also the re sult of the ballotingg for the handsome spurs and tho ruperb carving knife and fork, to be awarded respectively to the best eques trian and the most popular landlord or land lady in the county. I also furnish you with a list of the lncky recipients of the most val uable prizes. The committee appointed to count lhe votes and declare the result con sisted of Messrs. M. D. Wagner, E. R.

It is seldom possible for us to publish a communication of any considerable length unless it reaches us not later than Monday niht. Last week we were forced to omit a portion of our Altoona correspondence ou that account, and this wek we have to witthoid until our next is sue a very interesting description, furnished us by -T. I. M ," i f the new Pa. R R. Mo tive Tower Shops now approaching comple tion iu that city. The rest of his letter we give below ; A LijortA Cixv. Jan. 24, 1670, FaiCND Mac It is my unpleasant duty to in form you that our m tual friend. John Rock ett, met with a sad misfortune on Thursday morning last. He had got on the roof of the I'a. R. R. Co 'e machine shop for the purpose f paintiug it, aud the roof being slated and tbe morning frosty, be missed his footing acd slipped from the comb to the eave of the roof, from whence he tell a distanceof IS or 20 feet, alighting on a rough casting. When picked tip it was feared that he had been dangerously injured, bu. on being carried home and Dr. J. Christy summoned, it was found that one of his thighs was broken about three inches below the hip joint and that he had been otherwise injured, but I aro glad to say not seriously His wounds were properly attended to by the Doctor, and be is now doing as wall as could be expected. May he be blessed with a full and speedy recoveiy. On tbe same day a carpenter named John Coach, employed in the passenger car shop, while helping to move a transfer table, had one ol his feet caught by a wheel and badly mashed. Dr. Jonston dressed the wound. On Friday another employee ia the same de parimert. named Stoup, had one of his index fingers taken off by some of the machinery. Leofold Mater, the cleverest of clever merchants, told us the other day that he was in a quandary. The season is getting short, and yet there i such a demand for dry goods that he haa to order new goods daily, almost agaiiist hia will. Nevertheless, he, does order aud sell too, by the ton; but he is determined to reduce his stock as low as possible and to keep it reduced. He agrees to sell one peg lower than auy body else, and he will do it too. No. 212, Opera House, Main st , Johnstown. Always Obliging. There is no more obliging man in the werld than N. F. Carroll, dry goods merchant, at the Houston House, Main street, Johnstown. Mr G. wants to rush o fiT hia present stock at any price, and will sell furs arid all other goods far below cost for cash. Twenty dollar furs for $10 and ten dollars furs for $5. Now la the time te get just the best kind of goods at half the full price. Try it. The back of a clock may virtually be said to be always behind time, and people who don't want to be like the back of a clock ehould not longer delay In visiting the East Ward tore of R. R Davis, for we can asture them that our merchant friend down there is always up to time in the quality of bis goods and cheapness of bis prices. When money we wish to save us we always buy from R. R. Davis. It is said that the "early bird catches the worm," which is no doubt a good thing for the bird, but rather severe on the worm. A good thing for everybody is to call early at the great big store of II. A.
