We are earnest in sajing that Mr. Car!and and his estimable "right bower," James P.

The Iudiana Messenger tells about a white girl in that county who recently gave birth to a negro child, but, strange to say, it don't rejoice thereat, although it has ever been foremost in tbe advocacy of those disgiuting political doctrines which have a tendency to bring about just Fiich demoralizing and shameful results aa the one meutioned above. Having failed to secure the removal of the county seat and the consequent erection of the necessary buildings on tbe Johnstown Public Square, the Tribune vents its spite by denouncing said greunds as a public nui sance and as an eyesore to the community. Does the'7Vi'6un call that "doing things on the square," or is it the things that hava been done on the square that has excited its ire ? Du tell. The dwelling house of Mr. Abram Licga fclt, situated in Washington township, this county, and distant about two miles from Hemlock, was totally consumed by fire, with all it contained, on Saturday last. All the inmates of the house were absent at the time except the hired girl and a little daughter of Mr. Lingafelt. The former ran to Hem lock to summon aid, but before any one could reach the scene the flames had did their work. We did not learn the origin of the fire cr the extent of the loss. Luke Tlatt has purchased tbe stock and fixtures of tbe oyster saloon and confection ary recently kept by Frank C.

Oysters will be received in the shell and served constantly during the coming summer. It. H. Brown, LVq., railroad and express agent at Cresson, has entered the field as an aspirant for the Democratic nomination for representative from this county in the next Legislature, and if he should be fortunate enough to "make the riffle" he has intelli gence and spirit enough to perform the du ties i f the position with credit to himself and his constituents. . Mr. B. has always been a consistent democrat, so far as we know, but whether his claims for the office are any better than some one of the other aspirants, is a question for the convention to answer.

Riddle and Singer are as good a team as can be trotted out anywhere. A Rixout-AC Freak of Nature. A lady residing in this place, who is at present on a visit to some friends in Granvilln. Ohio, writes home an account of a most singular freak of nature which had its occurrence in that ptaco not many daya ago. A young married woman, the wife of an old but wealthy citizen of Granville, while in "that condition which ladieR wibh to be who love their lords," took it into her head to adopt a fashion prevalent among the weaker sex. and for that purpose procured one of thse hirsute appendage commonly denominated a waterfall. This little fuiblc of the young wife excited the ire of the old husband, who expressed himself very vehemently on the subject in language more forcible than class ic, and so deep an impression did his words make upon the wife shortly to become a m tber, that when the poor ucffending child came into the world it bore upnn the b.ick of it head a large fleshy protuberance resembling in shape md outline a full fledged waterfall. The letter further says that a couple of physicians mado two attempts to remove the unsightly lump, but the infant died before the operation c uld be completed. We have thought it best not to publish the names of the parents, which are furnished by the letter, but the account may be relied upon as true in every particular. The cane i one which should serve as a warning to irritable husbands, and should learn them at least to curb their tempers under similar circumstances, lest their innocent offspring should be made to bear in body or mind a deformity which would prove a life-long af fliction to the c".iild and a source of deep regret and self-reproach to the paroLts. Isfanticidi. One day last week, while a party of young ladies and gentlemen were sporting in a boat in the north fork, oppo site the Sycamore House, Ursina. they dis covered the body of a child of apparent recent birth lying in the water. Messrs. Wm. Hyatt, Bruce Hyatt and Hugh Denni son at once proceeded and recovered the body and brought it to shore. A jury was empanneled and sworn by Alexander Han oa, E-q., with Dr. Ilarrah as examining physician. The child was fouad to be cut and lacerated with a knife in a most bru tal manner, both ears being cut off, the heart and intestines cut out. and gashes cut across the head r.nd face. A verdict, we under stand, was rendered that the child met with death by unknown hands. We learn that steps are being taken to ferret out tbe per petrator of this cruel and barbarous crime. It is hoped that the perpetrator will be fer reted out and brought to speedy trial and the extreme penalty of the law meted out to him Somerset Standard. JLocnl Correapoiidence. JonssTowx, April 11, 1870. - Dear Frteman Several thirjgs happened last week, but still local is scarce.

These are all the brief items that we can think of, so we will now write you a few paragraphs. A cas-e of infanticide came to the ears of Coroner Han old last week, and he repaired to the graveyard near Ileadrick's farm, in Taylor township, where the body of an in fant, born "rather prematurely," had been found. A post mortem examination was held, and it was decided that some cruel mother, in order to hide her shame, had dis posed of the living offspring in an illegal way, but no clue was had to the perpetrator. There was a marriage in the lock-up last week, between two of the inmates who had been detained there, either legally or illegal ly. Some people are inclined to make light of the matter, but we think tha,t if the par tics were agreed, it was no other body 'a burfness. and they appeared to be agreed. The following cases were tried in the Dif trict Court last week, all of a very trivial nature: Mathew Mrers vs. Thos Elder. Assump sit. Jury find for plaintiff $10. Commonwealth vs. Noah Owens and George Gates. Indicted for aggravated assault and battery. Owens guilty and Gates acquitted. A fine of $5 and costs imposed on Owns. Com'th vs. Jos. Bretzell. Fornication and eduction. Guilty on first count and not guil ty on second. Sentcnce-$10 and costs. Com'th vs. Frederick Laughman. Larceny. Guilty, but recommended to mercy of Court. Sentenced to pay a fine of $1 and" costs, and undergo three months' imprisonment in jail. Com'th vs. John P. Davis. Lewdness. Ac quitted on ground of insanky. Com'th vs. Daniel W. Gou;bbuor. Selling liquor to a minor. Found not guilty at the expepce of the county. Com'th vs. John Jordan. Defendant plead guilty to a charge of assault and battery, and was sentenced to pay a fine of $5 and costs. There was also a case of supposed false pretense tried, but the evidence failed, and the jury stood for acquittal and all but one favored the payment of the costs by thfc prosecutor. There was another case on which the jury disagreed, but it was after wards settled. Solomon Buyer, convicted of illegal voting at the last District Court term, was required to pay $20 and cost ol prosecution, and abide for three calendar months in the county jail. Not a trace could be found of Margaret Trace, who was found guilty of fortune telling at the last term. and her redngnizances were therefore declared forfeited. A small car at the Tolling mill was acci dental.'y pushed over a man named Frank Zcrner, in front of which he fell while pulling at it, two other men pushing in the rear, on Thursday last, and the result was that Zer ner had one arm and one leg broken. Scarlet fever still prevails to an alarming extent. Young children are attacked and taken off very suddenly. Two little children of Mr. George Fockler, of the 6th ward, were attacked t,f this malady and died within twenty-four hours. They were twins. Several other deaths occurred last week. The Grand Inquest of Cambria county, inquiring for the District Court, found the lock-up in a bad condition, and have pre sented the Honorable Burgess and Town Council of our borough. It is quite likely that a new one will be built lcrthwitb worth $8.00.0. Tbe School Directors of Johnstown have bought two lotr of ground in Hornerstown and will put up a school house right away. They are determined to put the schools of next summer in as good a condition as they were ten years ago, when Mhs Uindman taught in this place. A man named Hip died very suddenly, last Sunday, on the Island, secoud ward, Johnstown, or else in Conemaugb, we are not certain which. Coroner Ilarrold was sent for to hold an inquest upon the bdy, but we did not hear what verdict was rendered. A gentleman in this place is April fool ing the people by declaring that he saw the full moou, at noon, on last Friday, about thirty degrees east of the sun, or the mer idian. He may have seen tbe new moon at noon, but not the full one, and it is doubt ful whether even the new moon could be seen one degree from the sun. Many learned men, however, declare that it was nothing uncommon to see the full monn at that hour, as they had thus seen it many a time. We visited the cemetery on Sunday last, and, while there, counted over seventy graves that do not appear to be more than from one week to three months old. As there are other burial places around, the number of deaths would appear to be quite large for this place. The evergreen trees are growing beautiful, and the number of hedges is rapidly increasing. There are not many box hedges, the soil being best suited to arbor vitae. The buds of the other shrub bery are swelling, and we hope when the blossoms come out that they may not be plucked by rude banns. The farmers are beginning to plow for the spring crops, and the fall grain looks green, healthy and promising. A bountiful har vest will tend to lighten the burdens which bear the people down, and we hope to see a great harvest next summer. Rob Roy. Lots for Sale.

In a few weeks the census takers will be around asking persons how old tbey are, where they were born, andso forth. As it is their business to find out such things of course everybody will tell them. It's none of their basines. however, where you buy your flour, groceries, provi sions, etc., but if they or anybody else should ask you we hope you will have the proud satisfaction of saying, "At the cheap cash store of M. L. Oatman, who is the cleverest man in the county to buy from and never fails to furnish the best articles at the lowest prices." A Rare Ciiakce. Any person with a cashcapital of $.2,000 or $3,000, who wishes to invest in the purchase of a first clas store, twelve years established, in one of the best mining and agricultural districts in the State, can hear of an excellent opportunity by addressing the editor of this paper. The sales of the establishment list year exceeded $30,000, which can be considerably increas ed. Satisfactory reasons for selling. Im mediato possession will be given. 3w. History. Rome was built on seven hills. Carthage was destroyed by the Romans, and M. H.

A work descriptive of the Mysteries and Miseries, the Virtues, Vices, Splendors aod Crimea of the City of Paris. By James D. Mc , Cabe.Jr. Natioual Publishing Co., Tbila. The unusual facilit ies possessed by ' our first-class Subscription Book Publishers have enabled them to furnish the public with many works of great interest and value; but the most powerful and attractive work of this kind ia the book now before us. It is simply the City of Paris photographed by the author's pen and the artist's pencil. It is magnificently illustrated, and is issued in the very best style. It not only abounds in solid and useful information, but faithfully reproduces the most, startling sensations of the gayest City iu the world. It tells us how the beauty and splendor of the bright City have been purchased at a frightful cost of misery and suffering ; how vice and virtue go arm-in-arn, and how the latter is under rating all the sweet courtesies of social life ; and how most fearful crimes are committed and concealed. It tells us of high life and low life ; of palaces and hovels ; of the Em peror's family, and th? workman's house hold. We mingle freely in the most mag nificent and dissipated pleasures, and drop an involuntary tear into the "Common ditches" where the poor sewing girl is laid to rest. All that has made Paris the most beautiful and attrac'ive as well aa tbe gay est and wickedest City in the world, unite to make this book tho most interesting we have seen for many a day. The author, writing of what he has seen and expeilenced, has evidently sought to make this volume not only the most powerful and fascinating sensatioual work of the day, but also a book which shall hold a place in every man's li brary as an authority upon the subjects whereof it treats. The book is magnificent ly illustrated with 150 fine engravings, by the leading artists of France : Dore, Ther ond, and others whose names amply attet-t the character of tbe work. It is cmprifed in one large volume of over 800 pages and sold only by subscription. Life ix Utah ; or the Mysteries and Crimes of Mormonism being an Expose of the Se cret Rites and Ceremonies ol the Latter Day Saints, with a full and authentic History of the Mormon Sect from its Origin to 'the Present Time. By J. H."B?adle, editor of the Salt Lake Reporter. National Publish ing Company, 26 3. Seventh St , Philad'a.

Tho attention of our readers is called to the advertisement of the Continental Life Insurance Company- of Hartford, Conn. We are pleased to learn that Messrs. Cope and Johnson, of Johns town, have made arrangements for the agen cy of the Company in this county. These gentlemen are already extensively kuown from their connection with the schools at Johnstown, as well as the recent connection of the former gentleman with the schools iu this place, and we have no doubt that their success in this field is already secure. They are not in the habit of failing in their undertakings, and bring to tlis work a reputation for energy and perseverance that must win. We understand that they wish to establish local agencies throughout the county aud wish to correspond with men in whom confidence can be placed with a view to that end. We have examined the plans of this com pany, and as we hold one of its Policies, are prepared to recommend it and its rejresent atives to the attention and patronage of our readers. We believe Life Insurance incum bent on every roan having any one depend ant upon him, and have every confidence that the Continental is a Company that may be relied upon to the utmost extent.
