The pastor, Rev. R. C. Christy, desires as
to return his sincere thanks to all the lady
managers for their untiring exertions in the
good work; also to the members of neigh
boring congregations and persons from a
distance, as well as to the many among our
own citizens, who so liberally contributed of
their means to bring about the grand result
so much desired and so greatly needed.
True charity Is not circumscribed by parish
or county lines, 'but is co-extensive with
Christianity itself. Nor will any person
ever be the poorer for the patronage they
bestow upon such enterprises as the one in
question. On the contrary, liberality on
such ocasions is sure to win from the public
a more generous support in the-' business
walks of life, as merchants, politicians, and
other seekers after public favor can fully
testify.
Person wishing to Bee something new,
beautiful and durable, and something greatly
needed by many, should go and examine

tionable plate. Qo and see them at 816

Local Correspondence.
Johnstcwk, March 28, 1870.
Dear Freeman The pleasant sunshine of
last Friday and Saturday caused our mind
to revert to the past, and to reflect upon the
first seasons we ever beheld, or at least re
member beholding. That time was in 1820,
when we first saw the folks planting corn.
The ground had Leeu plowed with a wooden
plow mouldboard, share, and all, and af
terwards smothered over with a large thorn
bush. The trappings of the horses were
made of ropes and the bark of trees. The
stumps aud stones were hauled off on a sled,
there being no wagon about, except a kind
of trundle, the wheels of which were made
of cuts of wood sawed off the but end of a
white cak tree. The following harvest was
reaped with sickles, the grass mowed with a
Dutch scythe, which was sharpened by beat
ing it with a hammer. The hay was hauled
in on a sled and pitched with wooden pitch
forks. The wheat, rye and corn were ground
at tread-mills. Two or four horses were
placed on one side of a wheel which was
nearly but not quite horizontal, and their
weight caused it to revolve, and to propel
other machiuery. Corn was husked, build
ings erected, and flax scutched and ven
blankets fulled by frolics. It was amusing
tc witness six or eight persons kickitig flan
nel, on a floor which flanuel was saturated
with soap suds. Threshing was done alto
gether with flails. The grain and chaff
were separated as follows t A large tow
sheet was fastened by cords at one end to
the wall of the barn, while a man caught
the other end. and, by waving the sheet,
produced a current of wind, while another
bhook the chaffy grain through a sieve or
riddle just over the current aforesaid, and
the chaS was thus blown away. Such was
the condition of things in 1820 or fifty i
years ago, Flint locks, brush fences, burn
ing log aud brush heaps, loom up before our
imagination as we write, and we fancy that
we cau smell the smoke of the buruiug rub
bish even now, and inhale the fragrance of
the green grass, as of yore, when we had to
herd the cows. Many a rural sight, such as
these, have we witnessed such a3 burning
clearings, and woods on fire, viewed after
nightfall ; but the ruostjmagnificent sight we
ever wituessed was a night view of a field of
standing dead timber on fire. If all the ship
masts in New York harbor were on a blaze
at one time, the scene could not be more
grivnd than that of a thousand standing trees
on fire, with high spring winds' diiving the
sparks, like a dense shower of meteors, in all
directions. Nothing could excel the sight
except a city or a prairie on fire. We saw
the falling meteors in 1832 and the city of
Pittsburgh on fire iu 1844, but we think the
burning timber transcended both in grand
eur and sublimity.
The examinations of the MillviJle public
schools were largely attended, and the exer
cises were quite interesting. There are
eight schools in this borough, under the
charge of S. B. McCormick, Kate Young,
Linniv Lcrdin, Maggie. L. Davis, Ada Car
penter, Bella Lardiu, Lucy A. Dickey and
Annie E. Z.-cL. The teim was fix months.
The closing exercises consisted of a series of
examinations, with iatcrludes devoted to
singing, declamation, dialogue, etc. The
Co. bup't was present and made addresses.
He passed a glowing eulogy upon the efforts
of both teachers and pupils. The crowd re
tired from each tchool room pleased and
gratified.
The Conference of the M. E. Church last
week was largely attended. About three
hundred ministers were present. The dis
trict represented embraces Western Penn
sylvania, West Virginia, and Eastern Ohio.
In regard to numbers, the Conference was
about equal to Congress, while it was not
inferior in iutelligence and far superior in al!
the other elements of greatness. We never
saw a better looking body of men assembled
in this or any other place.
From the honey which' feeds the bee, is
extracted, by some chemical piocess, the
poison which flows from its sting ; so from
the very acta of kindness which we bestow
upon others, is generated the malice with
which they too often requite friendship;
He takes my life who takes away the
means by which I live," and professed
friends often do this.
The M. E. Conference published a daily
paper while in session here. About twelve
Uuudred copies were printed and sent away
daily from the Tribune office. This was the
first daily paper printed in Johnstown.
We have been accused of growing old.
We cau neither help the accusation nor the
growing old. Wq have spent thirty-five
years of our time in teaching for wages en
tirely inadequate to the labor performed,
and now our thanks for all this i? a taunt.
We can only say, in the language of an elo
quent Indian chief, "I am a branchless
trunk, strike me down." But let thot-e who
strike remember tbat they too will groio
old, and then, perhaps they w'xWfeel the force
of these taunts as we have done. There is
a time to become fojsilized, but even this is
vanity.
Your paper is spoken of in this place as a
respectable, high-toned family journal an
encomium well deserved, for we do think
that you do religiously study bow to avoid
giving offense. Continue ou well doing.
The weather on Saturday night and Sun
day was exceedingly wet and stormy, which
no doubt put a stop to the excellent run of
sugar water which was witcessed during the
two or three days preceding the storm.
We had a visit from T. J. Chapman, Co.
Superintendent, last week, who is looking
well ; also one from Rev. B. M. Kerr, the
worthy gentleman who was waited on by
Mr. Donation and who deserved all he re
ceived. A large number of other Ebens
burgers were also here last week. Hope
they may have the gift of continuance Wo
would rejoice to see them all here.
The District Court commences its session
on next Monday. A number of trivial ca
ses are on the list for trial, but we are not
aware that many cases of importance will be
adjudicated.
Johnstown must be growing large. A
child was lost in the 5th Ward, on Friday
last and two children were lost in the 3d
and 4th Wards on Saturday last in the after
noon. J. G. Keller, house and sign painter, is
still at his old stand, opposite the post-office.
He has a sign out in the shape of an open
book, with both sides of several leaves ex
posed, on, which entries are painted as clear
and fine aa in a printed book. It is a mas
terpiece of art aud skill. Mr. Keller does
a large business iu house and sign painting,
and makes but little noise about it. Honor
to whom honor is due.
The Pennsylvania R. R. Co. sent A train
of cars from Altoona, on Saturday, and took
the whole M.E. Conference on a trip across
the mountains, and returned them &P 5 p.
m. This was a clever act. Rob Roy.
Cabbolltown, March 28, 1870.
Dear Freeman During several days last
week we were in rather' an isolated condi
tion -separated, as it wer, from the balance
of tho world owing to the general blockade
by snow of all the roads leading hence. Our
mail facilities in winter are enjoyed by rath
er a precarious tenure, but this was the first
occasion during the present season-that our
efficient aud indefatigable mail carrUr
was compelled to forego his regular trips.
On Friday last the road was re opened and
we are once more rejoicing over the daily
receipt of mail matter this being about the
only inconvenience we suffer Troni blockaded
roads during the winter season.
You were misinformed in regard to the
accidental killing of a "young man" on Mr.
Llopple's farm. No such sad occurrence
transpired in this locality, and if such had
been the case your correspondent would have
transmitted reliable details of the events
Monday of last week was observtd here
as the patronal feast of Sti Benedict, to
whose especial guardianship our church is
dedicated. Grand high mass was celebrated
and a portion of our brass band Assisted in
discoursing the sacred choir music on the oc
casionk In this connection I may state that
the band and choir have been practicing to
gether for a couple mohths past for the
purpose of celebrating in a becoming man
ner, n Easter Sunday, the vocal and instru
mental music so well befittiug the great
mystery of the Resurrection. They have
now iu course of preparation "Mozart's
Twelfth Mass," and the band instruments,
in connection with our magnificent organ,
will make this an occasion to be remembered.
Died, on Thursday last, in Carroll town
ship, Simon, sou of William Luther, in the
19th year of his age. Ou the evening of the
same day, in same townshipk of consump
tion. Agues Farrel, aged about 32 years.
With this letter we drop the rdle of "Car
rolltown correspondent," as we have conclu
ded to emigrate hence, or rather our en
gagement here has expired by limitation.
We can only hope that some person better
able and more capable to furnish yott the
news from this portion of the county may
voluntarily assume the position we now va
cate, and thus keep your readers posted iu
the general news of Northern Cambria.

Ai.tooXA City, March 24, 180.
Editor Freeman With your permission,
I desire to say a few words and propound a
question or two.through the columns of your
excellent journal. There having been or
ganized iu this city, a society known as the
"P. O. Sons- of America,' the charge is
made thus it is a proscriptive organization.
In fact, I have been told that it is a branch
from the old Know Nothing tree, and I am
inclined to believe this statement until it has
beeu proven to the contrary. Mr. Editor,
we alt know that Know Nothingism was the
greatest humbug ever devised by mortal
man an association or party which had for
its object the elevation of none but "Native
Americans," aud the annihilation of every
thing that was foreign au association that
was iu direct opposition to the fundamental
principles laid down by Washington and bis
compatriots aud we all see the fallacy of
attempting to build another society on the
ruins of Know Nothingism. Some of the
members ot the new order tell us that it is
founded on the Holy Bible and the Consti
tution of the United States, aud that it is
not in any way a proscriptive order, or op
posed to any religious denomination. Now,
if this be true, why is it tbat whenever any
of their members ask a person to join them
they desire to know it he is an American by
birth and if he is an adherent to Catholic
ism ? I would ask, a gain, if this older is
opposed to men of foreiga birth holding any
office in the gilt of the American People?
As I take notice that the Tribune and Sun
of this city take particular pride in recom
meuding this organization to our young men,
perhaps they will give us some light on the
proscriptive features of that order. I be
lieve they are connected or interested iu 6ome
way. Will you do it, geutlemeu? I am
not opposed to any society that has for its
object the elevation of mankind, irrespective
of race or religion, but 1 have great objec
tions to any organization that endeavors to.
poison the young mind with prejudice, ha
tred, etc. Right.
FBANmLiy, March 25, 1870.
Editor Freeman Your correspondent,
"Rob Roy," in his communication published
in your kst issue, uses considerable argu
ment to prove that he was correct in his es
timate of the amount of liquor consumed
annually in the United States. I did not
doubt the correctness of his calculation and
only alluded to it as an eicUse for his erro
neous statement, giving the credit to East
Conemaugh which was dtle to Franklin.
He further reminds us that we do not
driuk all the whisky. It was unnecessary
to remind us of that fact, for I was aware
that "Rob Roy" could drink more whisky in
one day than I drink in a year.
Multum is Pabvo.
Noble Act of a Little Bot. Passen
ger Train Saved from Threatened Deslruc
tion. The Pittsburgh Post of Tuesday fur
nishes thex following particulars of a most
praiseworthy act performed by a lad named
Keogh (uot Kahoe), near Kittanning Point,
on Saturday moruiug last. We are well ac
quainted with the parents of the boy referred
to, and congratulate them on the brave con
duct of their little son, who is worthy of a
testimonial more substantial and useful than
either of those suggested by the Post for
instance a thorough and liberal education at
some first-class college s
On Saturday morning about nine o'clock, as
the Pacific express train on the Pennsylvania
Railroad, comiug west, was approaching Kit
tanning Point, a tew miles west of Altoona,
the attention of the engineer was attracteJ to
a little boy, who was standing on the track
waving a white handkerchief. The train was
stopped, when the little fellow approached and
gave information of an immense rock which
had rolled upon the track, and which was 1 ing
a few yards in advance of the spot where the
train had stopped. The name of the lad who
had thus arrested a terrible disaster was ascer
tained to be Billy Kahoe. He is only ten years
ot age, and it is said that he once before pre
vented a disaster on the road, within a few yards
of the spot where the rock was found, by giv
ing timely warning of a similar obstruction.
That boy should be "surprised" by ihe railroad

All. OP ThBM. Want of room we hope
will be accepted aa an excuse for dot notic
ing in extenso this week the inducements of
fered by our several Ebensburg mercantile
friends to their respective customersj arid we
trust, none of them will sell fewer goods on
account of our remissness. Ciosing out
sales of winter good3 at the store of V. S.
Barker, A. G. Fry,' H. A. Shoemaker &
Co., and R. R. Davis are still iu progress,
and either of those gentlemen will be found
willing to give as much for the same amount
of money as aoy dealer in or out of the
county. Mr. Davis has already received
an invoice of spring goods, and the others
wish to make room for their big stocks,
shortly to be purchased. E; J. Mills, flour
aud feed dealer, keeps such commodities as
have all 6easoOs for their own, and Hot only
sells the best of suoh ' commodities, but
sells at the very lowest rates, while George
Huntley, who is eldom asked for an article
in the hardware, tinware, queensware, wood
enware, stove or notion line which he is not
able to furnish, moves on in the even tenor
of his way, doing a big business because be
does it on the square and asks only the most
moderate prices for his goods. All the gen
tlemen above named are Worthy of tho most
liberal patronage.

"Ye Local" of the Altoona Radical ha3
been "interviewing"" trie extensive stove and
tinware establishment of our amiable and
marriageable young friend, Geo. W. Yeager,
in that city and gives the following as the
result of his investigations:
We dropped in the other day at the Stove
and Tinware establishment of Geo. W Yeager,
on Eleventh Avenue, below the Radical office,
and were taken with the BaFley Sheaf Cooking
Stove, for sale there. Among the peculiarities
of this stove ate these: The crcss-picCe on top
is reversible, so the wash boiler Can be used on
the side holes as well ns iu front; a slide feed
er is attached so the fire can be attended to
while the front holes are in use; there is a slid
ing front fire door, giving full use of hearth
an additional slide in the oven, making more
available room than usual ; the oven is nearly
as wide at the top as the bottom, securing
much additional space-and great advantages in
baking ; it consumes the least possible iuel,
and is altogether the best cooking stove in use.
Mr. Yeager has tbem of different sizes, and
also a full a-s Jrtment of other patterns, for par
lor, chamber and kitchen. His facilities for
making and putting up spouting aro equal to
any in the city. His prices are moderate.
Give him a call.
The Cash Ststbm, Our next door neigh
bor, M. L. Oatman, has made up his mind
to try what virtue there is in the cash sys
tem, and announces his determination,' On
and after to-morrow, the 1st inst., to sell
goods only on the "pay your money and
take your choice" priuciple, and in order to
induce people to come to terms on the ques
tion, he pledges himself to sell groceries,
flour, and all other articles in his line, at a
reduction of from five to ten per cent, under
former prices. Mr. Oatman is enterprising,
liberal and accommodating, but has found
that neither his own interests nor the inter
ests of his customers are subserved by the
credit system, ahd hence he proposes to turn
over a new leaf. We hope it will prove a
successful inovation on a tule which should
be more honored in the breach than the ob
servance.
