SUM thvre is no accounting for the quiik? and quiddities of either law or politics, and the Judge look.? like a man who would submit to such Morre'l influence with the best grace possible.

Mr. (Jeorge I'ringle, fSr., of Summerhill to .vuship, an old and earnest democrat and honest man, called iu ou Tuesday to pay his subscription, which he diJ with the rermirk that he hail been netting the Democratic paper published in Ebecsbttrg, through all the innumerable changes and trials, for the past thirty seven years, and that he designed to keep on iu the good woik so long as lile was left him. Mr. P. is a gentleman worthy of the printer's benediction, and we hope his good example will Cud many imitators among our patrons. Iu this connection it may not be amiss to say that our old friend brought and left with us a rich specimen of iron ore found on his homestead near Wil- more, and which those nesning can see at our office. Two veins of this ore, each fu'.ly four feet thick, have been opened on Mr. IVs premise, and as this land borders.on the railroad and can be bought on fair terms, it occurs to us that there is a good opening there for some party or parlies to go in aud make a nice thing of it. Richard J. Proudfoot. Esq , now a resident of Iowa, and w ho represented Cambri.t coiiu ty in the lower branch of the Legislature of this State during the sessions of 1850 and 18G0, is now on a visit to his old Pennsyl vania home. Mr. P. is in the enjoyment of excellent health, aud meets, as he de.erves, with a cordial welcome from his old Cambria county friends and acquaintances. Robert Johnstou, an old canal boatman who was well known along the lino of public improvements many years ago, turned up in our midst on Saturday night last, after bav in spent seventeen years in California.w here hewent iu 1849. and four years in Nevada territory. Mr. J. has saw a good dtal of the world and its tips and downs, and looks rather the worse of the wear. He left here to visit a sister near Loretto whom he had not teen for thirty years. Destructive 1'ire. The extensive pla ning mill belonging to Hon. A. A. Baikcr, and located at the cast end of cur borough, was entirely destroyed by fire at an early hour on Friday evening last. The work at the mill ceased at 6 o'clock, at which time all the employees except the watchman left the latter remaining fully an hour and a quatter after the other men had taken their departure, during which time he took the luual precautions against accidents by fire, such as throwing water around and under the furnace and sweeping away from about it everything of a combustible nature. 1 he watchman then went to a small office some twenty yards distant, to fill and light his lamp, anafcauoougu uc v. the mill more than ten minutes, when he re turned to it he found it so completely failed with dense volumes of smoke that it was tm possible to enter it. It is supposed that the ' . . . -i r -1- front Iho fnrnacn Qreonginaten irom vi- - which had got into the saw dust and had baen smouldering for some time. iNothtng whatever was saved from the interior of the building. In the yard there was an im mense amount of lumber, valued at about $20 000. not more than $300 worth of which was destroyed, owing to the calmness of the evenin" and the fact that copious raina bad fallen during Fiiday and the night previous. Had it uot been for these fortunate circum stances most of the lumber would undoubt edly have been burned, as well as a building close to the mill which contained a very large amount of planed lumber. Mr Barker esti mates hi3 loss at $7,000. on which there is an Insurance of $4,000 as follows: $2,000 in the Lycoming Insurance Co., $1,500 .r, 1 the Cumberland Valley Insurance Co., and $o00 in a Philadelphia company. A number of men have been thrown out of employment in consequence of this lamentable catastrc he but in view of Mr.'Barker's well known eney and indomitable pluck and persever ance it is fair to presume that another mill wMioSi take the place o f tbejonp de. troyed and that this much needed branch of indus trv will ere long be once more conducted wTtb bat vigor and success which have here tofore characterized Mr. Barker' many and important enterprises. The Fulton Democrat office i3 for sale. JonssToWN, June 13, 1S70. Dear Irccman A narrow escape from a suddeu and terrible death must be noticed in our local mention this week. A citieo of Johnstown was quietly atttudiug to his duties last Wednesday when a miile was hurled at him with such violence that, al though it did not reach him until the follow ing day, it would undoubtedly have killed him instantly only for the fact that the per son who threw it was about tweLty miles away. His name is It. Hoy. The perpetra tor of the deed is an editor, generally reputed for having a kind heait, but somehow he got off his balance this time. He claims that he was provoked to commit the act. Perhaps this is. true, but Mr. Roy, not the least in timidated, says that ho'll do it more. Js'o phelir.ks hurt ! A three year old daughter of Mrs. Margaret McDade was drowned in the Oonemaugh river, nearly opposite the Millville echool hotiso, on Fiiday last. The child" had been playing with a ball on the bank of the liver, and, throwing it into the water, attempted to wade in after it, but, getting beyond her depth, she was drowned. The hotly of the unfortunate little one has not been recovered up to the time of writing this. An attempted outrage on the person of a respectable young lady residing in our sister borough of Oonemaugh, is reported to have occurred ou Monday night of last week. The screams of the lady brought assistance, but noVuntil the dastardly wretch had made his escape. Rumcr says that the difficulty has been compromised by the payment of $200 and the promise to go aud siu .no more on part of the would-be ."rapist." A young man named John Ryan, who resides in Plopcct borough, met with a fa tal accident at Aitoona, on Friday night last. He started from here on that morning for the purpose of seeking woik at Aitoona, his occupation being that of machinist. Failiug to secure a job, he concluded to re turn home and just us the Fast Line left the dtpot at Aitoona he attempted to jump ou the train, but missing his footing he fell be neath the car and the wheels passed over his lerr at tl,n bin. He was brouuht here ou the same day, but owing to the severe na-j ture of hi injuries he died at 11 o'clock the , following morning, ii is remains were in- i teried in the Catholic burying ground on ! Sunday, followed by a large concourse ol j sorrowing friends. Deceased leaves a wife j and several children. ! Swank of the 'Tribune has just put up a new power press from the establishment of I Cottiell & Babcock, New York. It cost $1,- ! 600. and was set up by Mr. Johu G. Ramer. of that city. Friday's Tribune was printed j on it oj Saturday, and it Works well. Mr. Swank has now four presses a Gordon j b j press, two Washington haLd presses and the j new power press just relerred to. This looks j likes business, and also indicates that a bij press ure is to be brought to bear ou the re- j moval question. The press is said to be the j fulcium that moves the world, and the world : is a biijjer thing than a county seat. So 1 i advise you fellows up there to spit on your j hands and bold on like grim death when j you feel yur (county ) scat sliding from un- ( d.er you and gliding duwu the western tlope j or the Alleghenies. The Tribune contains tb? proceedings had and speeches made at that little meeting that I didn't talk out loud abotit last week. That naner didn't content itself with aivhig the balance of the story, as the Freeman intima j ted, but published the whole thing from ue- j .'lnmn-' to end. Don t lail to leau sneecnes and all and respond br'u lly. Other meetings of like import are 'announced here, but as the sulject may be somewhat distasteful, I shall content myself with a mere passing notice uf such events iu the luture. There are about four hundred pupils at tending two select schools in this place one under the auspices ol the Geimau Lutherau and the other the Gei man.Catholic church. This i educes the number attending the pub lic schools about one-tenth, or perhaps more. Two years ago nearly eleven hundred pupils entered the Johnstown schools. Now the uumber is, we think, 917. Conemaugh and Millville, and even Cambria borough and Prospect, contribute their quota to the telect schools. The education there is partly sci entific and partly religious, and both schools are in a very nourishing condition. Thoughtless boys and girls continue to pluck the beautiful flowers from the shrub bery that was -intended to honor the dead and decorate the cemetery. We think there are flower gardens enough about town where bouquets could be plucked, without robbing the craves of departed friends. I "understand that some Blander hunters have induced a colored woman to bring a serious charge against one of our oldest and most respected citizens. It is a charge of crim. ton'., duly sworn to, and yet I do not believe a word of the accusation, and tinst that truth aud innocence will yet 'triumph over cunning and malice. Oa last Tuesday, while Mr. Harry King was driving a buggy containing t xo ladies and himtclf, the coupling suddenly broke aud the three were thrown forward on the heels of the horse, rendering the Animal un manageable and resulting in a run iff. No person was injured except Mr. King, who was somewhat bruised. Woikmen are now engaged-in repairing and refitting the Foster House, putting shut ters ou the windows, spouting ou the taves, etc., preparatory to using the building as a Female Seminary under the control of the Catholic church. The -building is large and spacious, and in the very center of town. Since the vacatiou of this building for hotel purposes, another hotel is needed, and prob ably one will be built near the railroad sta tion. . , . Ripo cherries have already appearea in the market price twelve cents a quart; also, ripe strawberries, greeu currants and sich'like luxuries. Mr. Brown, of Cresson, was in town last week. There are four aspirants here for legislative honors, and we wish them all abundant success, though it is not likely that such will be .the result. Our mind is made up on that subject; we will vote for whom we please. - Trusting that the Freeman may grow in r,? thiit'ita editor may eventually be able to discern the difference between a com edy and a tragedy, I remain Youra, most ostensibly, Rob Rt. Altoona Citt. June 14, 1870. Friend Mac O a Saturday last our city was overwhelmed with ihe heaviest rain storm that "ye oldest inhabitant" has recol lection of ever witnessing in this vicinity. Quite a number of board pavements took up their beds and moved away, and cellars were filled to overflowing on all sides. The first anniversary of the Young Men's Association was held in the Lutheran church on Monday evening. The attendance was not as large as was anticipated but was quite respectable. Speeches were made by several gentlemen, among whom were Mr. T. R- Cree; of Pittsburgh, and Gen. James A. Beaver, of Bellefoute, The latter gen tleman pitched into the Aitoona Park Asso ciation rough shod for proposing to speud $1,120 in one day on fast horses, while it tack the Christian Association an entire year to collect the pitiable sum of $300. The inference the speaker drew from this was that the "best holt" of us Altoobians is not Christian Associations, but horse racing as sociations. A distinction with a very great difference. The lady members of the St. John's (Catholic) church, or some of them at least, are making the preliminary arrangements for holding a mammoth iic-nic on the 4th of July, and I understand that the lovers of innocent amustment are trying to induce the keeping up of the festivities for several days in succession, and I am not sure but what they will be accommodated. A Johustowner named John Ryan, who was in search of employment iu this c'ty, attempted to get on the fast line we6t on Friday evening last, while the train was in motion, but leil on the track and was run over Jind had one of his legs so badly crushed that it had to be amputated. He was taken to his home, where he has since died. A Philadelphia D. D. named Rev. Pelty delivered a characteristic harangue in one of our churches on Sunday tveniug last. He went tor the Pope and Popery in the heavi tst kind of style, and maniUsted great alarm lest that venerable old gentleman, Piuj IX., would take it into his htad to transport him self to this country and at one fell swoop squelch out and forever exterminate the re ligious itstitutions of our people. Rev. Pelty traveled a good way to relieve his mind of buch contemptible twaddle, but as nobody who heard bim was cursed fool enough to believe such a siily "cock and bull" story, it is fair to presume that the game didn't pay for the an. munition. I neglected to notice ere this that our mutual fiiend, Aug. J. "FogW, one of the most enterprising of Allodia's citizens, has pulled up stakes iu this city and betook himself to Lilly's station, iu your county, where he is now prosecuting the coal busi ness solely on his own hook. "Gusi.' is one of nature's noblemen, and his innumerable friends here aud elsewhere wish him well under all changes and circumstances. Yours, &c, T. I. M. Cariioli.towk, June 13, 1870. Dear Freeman Last week I failed to put in an appearance, but will now atone for my neglect. What I should have written to you last week is, that Suuday, 5th inst,, being Pentecost, or Whit Sunday, there was a grand processu n of children who had pie pared themselves to receive communion. The little girls dressed in w hite and the little boys neatly attired, r.uuiLering more than one huuiired ia all, headed by tlie Bra.-s Band, matched from the school house tuthe church in the morning, heard ma.-s, receivtd holy cotnmtiuiuD and returned to.tlie school house in the same manner. While kneeling at the altar all the communicants held in their hands larg white wax tapeis, skil fully ami tastefully ornamented with Colored ribbons, and presented truly a beautiful and impressive scene one that ouce caw cannct soon be forgotten. Daring the week and up to date nothing transpired of a character w orthy of a place in ycur columns, save that on Monday, the Cth, as per announcement, the pic-nics at St. Nicholas and Giosser's came off pleasantly and harmoniously, and, I might add, of course successfully. And now w hile on the sul ject of pio-nies, allow nie to mention the fact that the doubly grand pic-nio of the eeasou is to come off at our Carrolltown grounds on the Fourth of July next. Those of your readers who have ei joyed a pic-nic here, aud their name is legion, need not be told where they can fiud the most enjiyable j way of sneuding the coming Fouith. But; to those who have ''been to see," as well as those ho have not, I can give the most positive assurances that all former pic-nics, with all their successful and pleasant fea tures, were as uothing compared to the com ing oue. Indeed, 1 might call it a carnival (il I may Use the expression) that is prom ised to all seekers alter deligntfnl recreation. Here we have a splendid grove a brass band that cannot be txcelled - music or.d dancing of all kinds swings mi ten-pin alleys for old and young teu-piu alleys in width suiting the hour of the day or the sight of the player lefieshtnent halls con stantly in operation and handsomely attend ed, as well as regular dinner served about mid-day. The "wheel of foituue" will con stantly turn out foitunesto old and young, and no blani spaces on the wheel. Every imaginable article offered will be for chances, from an elephant to a darning needle, and no one solicited to take more than one chance unless by mistake. Come, any body be glad, happy and patriotic, and while leiug so rcbVct you are patronizing a worthy object and not throwiug away your money foolishly. Yours, &c, E. St. Aigustine, Juue 13, 1S70. Dear Freeman Local items iu this place are, as vsual, scarce as hen teeth, which may be accounted for by the fact that we live in a very quiet and peaceful locality. The only thing ef importance is the preparations w hich are making lor the Fair for the bene fit of the Catholic church. The young la dies here are busy in prepaiing for one of the giaudest Fairs ever gotten up iu Cambria county and of course it will be a success, as they are never excelled in an undet taken of the kind. They also intend to have a grand celebration ou the Fourth of July, at the school house in St. Augustine. The plat form will bo shaded by canvass," t-o that all J who visit it will be made comfortable. There has also been procured able speakers to deliver orations suitable to the occasion. A general invitation is extended to one and all. Dancing will he free. It may not be amiss to mention that Miss Ellen M'Guiro is teaching music in this place both vocal and instrumental and has quite a large school. As a "smgist" Ella is hard to beat, and as a performer on the pi ano or organ she ha3 but few equals. Tax Vobiscum. Zig Zag. Van Ambdeoh & Co.'s Great Goldek I Ballou's Monthly Maoazine. The!

The great humorist will take an honest country boy to the city, conduct him through the usual ex perience, and restore him to his home a sad der and wiser boy, satisfied that the peace ful, honest, aud temperate life of the farmer is the safest life that can be lived. This is the lesson that is greatly needed at this time and Nasby is the man to teach it. ing of this exhibition, gays: "Vatv.

Nathan Denny, watchman at War rior's' llidge statiun. a man somewhat past middle age, aud w ho has been iu the employ cf the Pa-. II. 11. Co. ever since the road has been iu operation, was run over by the Cin cinnati Express west, on Saturday morning last, and lmtantly killed. In connection with the sad death of Mr. Denny the Aitoo na Sun relates the following : An incident connected with the tragic death of Nathan Denny, w ho was killed on Saturday morning by the Cincinnati Express west, al Warrior's liidge, illustrates ihe fidelity of the cauine race in a truly forcible and pathetic manner. When the body of Mr. Denny was discovered, his faithful dog was found by his side w ith a brokeu back, show ing that be had risked his own life iu order to save his master from the jaws of death. And when the per sons who discovered the body cf his master at tempted to remove it, the broken backed dog, nearly dead as he was, manifested such a de gree of ferocity that it was fouud impossible to approach him. After repeated efforts to se cure the body had failed it was found necessa ry to shoot the faithful sentinel, and he breath ed out his faithful life on the body ot his dead master. What a commentary on man's fidelity. Come I i'ome t Come in your majesty, come in your mipht ; come in tho morninp, come after nipht; come any hour, come any day: come when you pfease, come when you may ; but in oominjr don't fail to boar this in mind, that the poods at Shoemaker's arejhe best you can find, whiio their prices are the cheapest that in this market prevail, and iu pleading their customers they are sure never to fail.
