Take Niiick. As we design to attend the Editorial Conventiou at Altoona on Tuesday next, it it very probable that oar paper will be delayed a day or two next week. However, as- we do not intend to i&pne the Freeman on the 4th of July wet k, the delay will pet disarrange matters much, and we guess our readers can stand it. Ixca.l Pruxinqs and Penciukqs. Argument Court will convene on Wednes day, July 13'.h. The revenue stamp has been taken off all matches except match teams and wedding matches. A vein of lead ore. said to be rich, has been discovered near New Enterprise, Bed ford county. Blair county boasts of a three legged duck, but the duck don't boat of Blair county ar far as heard from. -Michael M Cullough was thrown from a light spring wagon in Altoona on Sunday evening and considerably bruised. A little daughter of Samuel Shaffer, of Somerset, upset a pan of hot vinegar, not long ince, and scalded herself severely. The 4th of July will he here and else where on Monday week, if the almanac men know anything about what they tell ui. Two snakes, each eleven feet long, were recently killed in Bedford county and au other nine feet long met tho same fate in Somerset county. We learn from Conductor Qnattz,' one of the best of local reporters, that fmr cows were killed by lightning at the head of Plane No. 4. on Sunday night last. Eight full crown eggs, two of them of the hardshell persnasion, were found in a hea killed in Somerset county the other day. Wonderful place that Somerset. A turkey gobbler has recent'y hatched out ten young turkeys in Somerset county, and if said to be exceedingly proud of his achievement. Hark one for Somerset. A fawn is said to have been captured in Clearfield county a few days ago. It was quite tame, and had probably wandered away from some show or private enclosure. We may be mistaken, but it seems t3 us that there is a groat bargain in the tract of land offered for Bale by Mr. Charles Mc Kenns, in oar advertising columns to-day. . A lad named Henry Kerr cut one of his feet very severely with a flesh knife (whatever that is) in ludiana, not many days ago, and came very near bleeding to death before medical aid reached him. Two or three wagons with riveral gip sies, young and old. male anu female, stick ing cat behind and before, passed through town, westward bound, oc Saturday last. May they never Cnd their way backl The Altoona Sun is responsible 1t the following : Thomas Grey, watchman at Kittanning Point, killed two black enakes, each five feet in length, one day last week, by simply spitting tobacco juice into' their mouths. Ciirrolltowu rejoices in a new lock-up, and the new lock-up rejeiced in its firsi ten act on Monday last, and then the rejoicing suddenly quit until the prisoner got out, when he Uo rejoiced with exceeding great joy or words to that effect. Two dilapidated monKevs, three mis erable hand organs and a like number of worthless cusses who might be mistaken for human beings, paid our town a brief visit on Monday, to the mfiuite delight of the trunuie- bed brigade and a few grown-up children. We britfly noticed last week the report ed drowning of some person in the Blackitck. It now turns out to have been a young man named Claw.Oi. of Burrell township. Indi ana county, who waa drowned on Thursday week wi ile seining in a pond at Blacklick station. Thomas J. Power, Eta., of Beaver coun ty, and who waa at one time Superintendent of the old Allegheny Portage tail Kiad, was io town on Tuesday. Col. Power was in the enjoyment of excellent health and met with a warm reception from his numerous friends in this vicinity. The fastest runnipg ever done on lne Penna. R. R. was accomplished by the Pa cific Express east ou Saturday morning last. It having made the run from Altoona to Harrisburg, a distance of one hundred and thirty-one miles, in the incredible short space of two hours and fifty-nine minutes. Don't forget that the LadieB' Fair in aid of the St. Augustine church will open on Thursday next and that a routing pic nic in aid of the same cause is to be given on tue 4th of Julv ; and in not forgetting all this, don't forget to visit and make glad with a little of your money the fair ones who are engaged in the good work. Mark M. Focnerey, editor ot tne rew York Democrat and two other live papers. has accepted an Invitation to be present at the Democratic editorial convention which is to meet in Altoona on Tuesday next. As we expect also to be there, two "bricks" at least may be counted on "Brick" Pome roy and 4,brick-top," which means us. A young man. name not given but we hope it is not Zachariah, climbed a large tree not many mile south of Indiana, on Sunday week, but had scarcely got up be fore he let go his hold and came to the ground with Buch decided success that he dislocated one of his shoulders and sustained other bodily injuries of a disagreeable char acter. Several of the stone masons employed at the new jail quit work th's (Wednesday) morning, because the contractors refused to have sheds erected to protect them from tha rays of the sun. They were aTraid of getting sun arrucJt. so they played a joke on Old Sol by striking first themselves. We hope the difficulty will be compromised satisfac- torfy- The annual exhibitions at St. Aloysms' Academy and at St. Francis College, Lo retto. will both be held on Tuesday next the latter in the forenoon and the former in the afternoon. The Ebensburg and Cresson train will meet the Mail train on Saturday and Monday afternoons for the purpose of conveying to Kaylor's station all persons from Pittsburgh and other points west who may desire to attend the above exhibitions. The remains of old Peggy Griffith, well known to many of our readers in the north of the county, were interred in the Catholic cemetery in this place on Saturday last. She was about seventy years of age, come forty-three of which were spent in bed, Bh having been bedridden during all that time. She died at the poor boose, where the last thirteen years of her life were passed. Peace In her aariM. A family from Johnstown, consisting of a woman and three children namea niocnj, ir, . PKiioelnKift station bouse on Fri day last, and were ectirely destitute of money and in great distress. Thomas Hin cby.tbe husband of the woman, having procured work in that city as a poddler a few weeks ago. sent for his family, but failed to meet them at the depot thus leaving them in a strange city without funds and without friends. After having served his country for up wards of four years in the capacity of mail messenger between the railroad station and the post-office in this place, receiving the princely sum of $10 per month. Chaplain Wm. T. Davis threw up his commission on Monday last and retired to the -shades of private life, tearing with him the most supreme contempt for the radical party and the men who run the post-office machine at Washington. On Saturday last a railroad conductor saw what he supposed to bo the face of a drowned boy in a pond of water near Blair Furnace, J31air county, but on fishing him out a faint breathing indicated that he still lived. The lad was brought to Altoona, where medical aid soon restored him ajd loosened his tongue sufficiently to enable him to tell that he had been made drunk by some man, but how he got into the pond was a mystery that he couldn't explain. The breaking of a car coupling caused the severance of one portion from the other of the Fast Line west near Cresson on Mon day night, and the rear cars afterwards ran into the front ones and produced a very serious wreck, but strange and unaccounta ble as it may seem, not a single passenger or employee was injured in the least. So complete is said to have been thesmash-up that only ore ef the cars was deemed fit for present service, and the passengers were delayed four hours at Cresson waiting for other cars to be forwarded from Altoona. Never within the recollection of that mythical individual, yclept the "oldest in habitant," have so many people assembled within the limits of a show tent in this vi cinity as were present at Van Ambuigh's menagerie on Thursday laet. ' The collection of animals, it is needless to say, is the laigest and finest, and the wagons and ac coutrements the most magnificent and costly, that ever traveled the road, aud of course the exhibitions meet with decided success everywhere, because the management take good care to make the merits of the show known to all men through the medium of advertising in all shapes and forms. Our Carrolltown letter came too late for insertion in full, but we append therefrom the following lending item of news: A sad catastrophe occurred from lightning at the southern extreme of our village laft (Mon day) night, causing the death of two valua ble horses belonging to the widow nupfer. residing on the plank road, and almost kill ing her beconri oldest son, Joseph. The young man was just in the act of getting off the wagon to take shelter at the house of Mr. Shero when the horses were struck and instantly killed and he himself was so badly stunned that Dr. Oulman had to be culled in to administer to him. Both horses bled profusely and each of them looked as if it had been shot by a bullet.. The hotel keepers of Indiana, hnving been lefused lioer.se, "shut up shop" on Monday of last week and declined to accom modate the people who came there to attend court, thus rendering it necessary for the citizens of the town to lodge and feed the hungry and shelterless throng. It is saiJ that the landlords had previously held a meeting and pledged themselvea under a forfeit of i500 to pursue the course they did. Citizens and strangers were all indignant, and if the papeis are to be believed the "ho telists" have put their fot in it, for several thousand dollars, it is said, have already been subscribed towards the purchase, rent al or erection of a hotel to be ran stiictly by water power, and to be kept open without intermission or regard for consequences. A smooth faced, well dressed, innocent looking young scamp, aged about nineteen or tweDty years, succeeded in victimizing two c three of our me-chants to the extent of a few dollars' worth of store goods on Wednesday Inst, by representing himself to be a son of Mr. Martin Ward, a farmer of Summerhill township to whom we hold the relationship of son-in-la.w. It was evidently the first venture of the" young scoundrel in the swindling business, as he did not buy very extensively, through fear no doubt of being called on for better proof cf his iden tity than his mere word afforded. Where he came from or what his real name is re mains a mystery. Ho got off safely with his booty, however, and as he may try the same game elpewhere, under the name of James Ward, or some other assumed one, we caution business men to look out for him. Doling in Court. The followine causes were disposed of in Common Pleas up to the time of the adjournment of Court on Thurs day afternoon last: "Wm. Keith vs. Jos. Bowers. Slander.

Gore, found guilty of rape in the Oyer and Terminer, Judge Taylor reserved his decision until Argument Court. Corpus Christi. The feast of Corpus Christi, one of the most solemn of Catholic festivals, was duly commemorated by a pro cession in the interior of the church in this place on Thursday last. The ceremonies were grand and impressive, and the good order observed by the little girls reflected great credit on the good Sisters in charge, while the beautiful picture made up by the white dresses and tastefully arranged bas kets from which flowers were strewn in front of the sacred Host borne by Father Christy as the procession moved around the church, could not fail to inspire devotion and admi ration. The altar, too, fitted up with unex celled taste and adorned with its sixty bou quets of choice flojvers inspired a feeling of inexpressible awe and reverence. The silent beauties of nature are great promoters of spiritual aspirations on such occasions. The Removal Election in Wilmors We understand that 'Squire Miller of W(l niore, was successful last Saturday in pro curing the election of two bogus delegates from that borough to attend the Johnstown convention on Saturday next, to nominate a candidate for the Legislature pledged to the removal of the county seat. The 'Squire is and always has been ambitions of political honor and distinction.' He may yet live to see his calling and election sure, but that eventful incident in his crooked political career can only take place when the county seat has been removed. Joseph may then be the coming man. but not before provi ded always that the fools are not all dead when that event transpires. a- Man. Mills is 108 years old and still livee-Mo AUoofJa. Howstrangol JLocal Correspondence. Johnstown. June 20, 1870. Dear freeman The school directors of Millville borough are now pushing forward their new and iarge brick school house with commendable energy. It is Up to the Vin dows of the Fecond story, end it swallows brick by the car load. This house will be the largest school house in thecounly when completed, and will cost about twenty tbou Eand dollars. The brick used are manufac tured by the Johnstown Manufacturing Company, and are conveyed by the Cambria Iron Company's railroad from Woodvale to Minersville, where the new building is loca ted. Besides this house, there is another in Millville borough, on Cinder street, that cost sixteen thousand dollars. This borough will soon be completely furnished with schoo faci lities, apparatus and all. The borough has a go-al eid-a-tive school board, who are setting a glorious example to the surround ing boroughs. Johnstown borough is well supplied with school houses, but Conemangh needs a Union school building which would accommodate about three hundred pupils. A house could be built fr about $4,000 that would answer the purpose for many years. Debks and all would not cost more than $6,000. Then the schools could be proper ly graded and made attractive. The present school property would sell for as much as would purchase a largwlot and would pay hiilf the cost of a building. Now would be the time to purchase the lot and put up the house. It can be done cheaper now than ever hereafter, aud the schools will not flour ibh till such a house is built and the schools properly graded. Let it be done immedi ately. , ' A large additional Woolen Factory is be ing put up in Woodvale. Masons ate now engaged on the foundation, and the brick work will soon be pushed to completion.- This locks encouraging, and indicates that making woolen goods pays even in Central Pennsylvania. Let the good work proceed and that will again attract still more capital to the place. The election on last Saturday for dele gales to attend the "Removal" convention was slimly attended, if there was one at all. We enquired dilligently in the 6th ward for the pohs, but could not find them conse quently we went to the woods aud cut some bean poles, just for spite. Yet there will be delegate from nearly every district, at the convention, whether self constituted or sent we cannot say. The conventiou will be held has been we should say but a nomination wi)I be delerred, it is thought, until afier the regular party nomination? are made. We will see. Several new buildings are going up in our borough just' now, in the very centre of the. town. JJr. Betij. Yeagley is putting up a large dwelling house on Locust street, a few doors north of the old Fosier House, and Mr. Jacob Fronheioer is erecting auotherjust on the opposite side of the t-treet. Mr. Ja cob Fend is having a handsome fran e dweil ing put up in the 4ih ward, cn the road leading to the cemetery. These are all large and substantial buildings. There are also several large buildings being erected in Cou tinaugh borough, though we know not by whom. Bebides these there ars niuuy small buildings of one kiud and another being erected, notwithstanding the fact that there ure many houses empty. The census of the 1st ward has been com pleted by Mr. Englebach, and the number of inhabitants is over sixteen hundred, while there are six houses without feu acts. This will make the population of Johnstown, as estimated, about 9.000, and of all the bor oughs about 1G.000 inhabitants. We may be somewhat too high or too low in the esti mate, but not far out of bounds. Your interpolation last week made us say that the new power press was to be run in favor of the removal. Such is not the fact, but a heavy edition of a tariff" paper, called , the "Industrial Bulletin," will be printed monthly by Mr. Swank. We believe the edition reaches ten thousand copies. So you perceive you were mistaken in your guess this time. Co. Sup't. Chapman held an examination cf teachers in No. 1, Union school building, on last Saturday. There were but five or ix applicants for professional certificates. not because there were no teachers who need them, but because the professional certifi cate is woith nothing when you have it. School teachers in Pennsylvania are treated much like the Fenians are ir. Ireland they are examined every time they are seen iu the vicinity of a new district, and it matters not what passports they show, as to scholar ship, they arc put through anyhow Just for the fun of the thing. We have got so used to it that being examined has become n sec ond nature. We have been examined more than forty times, and yet were never exam ined thoroughly as to scholarship. We do know something about geometry, t-ygonom-etry, surveying, double entry book-keeping, astronuiny, geology, etc., and even naviga tion, but we were never asked a question in these branches, nor even in algebra, though it is taught. The examinations in Pennsyl vania are like the Frenchman's bug they are wn infernal humbug. We have studied civilian?, and we did read fjr six long months in the department of medicine, stu died the ology as far as Latin. Greek, Hebrew and Yan Dath and several other languages, and yet we could not get a school in Pennsylva nia without a paper stating that we can spell, read, write and c'pher. Of course we attach no blame to county supei intendents. but only think that after all we have studied in this world, if we cannot teach school now, examinations will not help the matter any. We have taught eighteen years in Johns town, and thirty-five in terrajirma attend ed educational meetings all over the State was county superintendent for five years and yet we cannot get a school without a certificate stating that we can spell. Others are similarly situated. One of our brother chips in town can talk six languages, but he dare not teach without the spelling cer tificate. Finally, we learned type setting, when a boy, and we were the bonafde edi tor of two papers, and a local on two dailies for a considerable length of time. Our spelling waa never challenged, and yet we cannot teach a school in Pennsylvania with out the inevitable certificate. In California, where living is as cheap as in Cambria coun ty, a man gets S125 per month for teaching, without being examined here we get from $20 to $60, and ten per cent, kept off until the end of the term. Such humbuggery would kilT the a6it'on of the best man in the State! We hope for better things, but look for worse. Oh, say, Van Amburgh "was here with his hanimols, and such kanimals we never saw. We heard folks say they seed the tlefont, the ricknouserous, the pelicon, the dragon, the no6ehorn, the ka-mtl, the Bhe lioness, and other wonderful creatures. It is astonishing to see what the world is comin' to, in these days of degeneracy. Van Ambareh'a was a big show. It covered six acres of ground and occupied two squares. The hanimals consumed seventy-five tons of victuals, and the show managers took in about $6 Q00. They exhibited on the jom, a deestrict that Is usually consumed in playing bsse-ball oa, but it was a success, or rather they were a successor. There were forty-fonr shows the" wonders," tba "dancers." the"snakes," the"xonstrB,thegiants,,iih,pignlies, the "vocalists." the "instrumentalians.' the"lu8u natuiaoj." etc., etc. They bad the lion along that swallowed Jonah and the fish that was cast into the lion's den. Sich was the show ! The people rushed into the amphitheatre like mice into a trap, and after inhaling the fragrance of the wild beasts for an hour they returned home Ct terly unmolested, Dear me ! Let us havt another show a little more sweat and a little less perspiration ! On the 2d day of July a pic nic will be held at Murray's grove (Woodvale) by the members of the St. John's Catholic congre gation, to raise money for fitting op the Foster House for a school, to be under the charge of the Bendictine Sisters. The lock-up has received more light on the subject in the shape of two windows, with cross-bars of iron, just for ornament. Prisoners will now be able to see the point of their incarceration without any additional cost. Men are engaged laying water pines in Conemaugh borough, along Portage (Broad) street. Thus it will be seen the "Wild Cat" is extending (protruding) its fangs in all directions. Serce time ago Mr. Geo. Baltzer, of Cone m'augh borough, lost a child by scarlet fever. Last Sunday he buried two more in one grave and two others are not expected to live. This is a 6ad bereavement indeed. Rob Rot. REAL ESTATE TRAXS1KK8.

MlSTMIl iFfblix? u uu The Kidney are two In number, situated at the upper part of the loin, surrounded by fat, and consisting of three parts, via i the Anterior, the Interior, and the Exterior. The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of tis sues, or veins, which serve as a deposit for the urine ann convey it to the exterior. The exte rior is a conductor also, terminating in a single tube, and called a Ureter. The ureters are con nected with the bladder. The bladder is composed of various coverings or tissues, divided into parts, viz. : the Upper, the Lower, the Nervous, and the Mucous. The upper expels, the lower retains. Many have a desire to urinate without the ability; others urinate without the ability to retalu. This fre quently occurs In children. To cure these affections, wc must bring Into sctiod the muscles, which are engaged in their various functions. If they are neglected, Gravel and Dropsy .may ensue. Tho render must also be made aware, that however sKrht may be the attack, it is sure to affect the bodily heatth and mental powers, as our flesh and blood art supported from these sources. Gout, or RhetmatiSM. rtin occuring- In the loins is indicative of the above diseases. They occur in persons disposed to acid stomach and chalky secretions. The Gravel. The gravel ensues from ne glect or Improper treatment of the kidneys. These organs being weak, the water is not ex pelled from .the bladder, blt allowed to remain; ifbecomes feverish, and sediment forms. It U from this deposit that the stone is formed, and gravel ensues. Dropsy Is a collection of water In some parts of the body, end bears different names, accord ing to the parts affected, viz : when generally diffused over the body, it is called Anasarca ; when of the abdomen. Ascites; when of the chest, Hydrothorax. Treatment. Helmbold's highly concentra ted compound Extract Buchu is decidedly one of the best remedies for diseases of the bladder, kidneys, gravel, dropsical swellings, rheuma tism, and gouty affections. Under this head we have arranged Dyeuria, or difficulty and pain In passing water. Scanty Secretion, or small and frequent discharges of water ; Strangury, or stopping of water; Hematuria, or bloody urine; Gout and Rheumatism of the kidneys, without any change in quantity, but increase in color, or dark water. It was always highly recom mended by the late Dr. Physick, in these affec tions. This medicine increases the power of diges tion and excites the absortents Into healthy ac tion by which the watery or calcerous deposi tions, and all unnatural enlargement, as well as pain and inflammation, are reduced, and it is taken by men, women, and children. Direc tions for use and diet accampany. Philadelphia, Pa, Feb. 25, 1807. H. T. Hilsbold, Druggist : Dear Sir I have been sufferer, for upward of twenty years, with gravel, bladder, and kid ney affections, during which time 1 have used various medicinal preparations, and been under the treatment of the most eminent Physicians, experiencing butjllttle relief. Having seen your preparations extensively advertised, I consulted with my family physi cian in regard to using your Extract Buchu. I did this because I bad used all kind of adver tised remedies, and bad found them worthless, and some quite injurious ; in fact, I despaired of ever getting well, and determined to use no remedies thereafter unless I knew of the ingre dients. It was this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that It whs composed of buchu, cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my'physiclaxi as an excel lent combination, and, with his advice, after an examination of the article, and consulting again with the aruggist, concluded to try it. I com menced its use about eight months ago, at which time I was confined to my room. From the first bcttle I was astonished and gratified at toe ben eficial effect, aud after trsfng it three weeks, was able to walk out. I felt much like writing you a statement cf my case at that time, but thought my improvement might only be temporary, and therefore concluded to defer and see if it would effect a perfect cure, knowing then it would be of greater value to you and more satisfactory to me. I am now able to report that a cure is effected after using the remedy for five months. I .have not used any now for three months, and feel as well In all respects as I ever did. Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor, a nioe tonic and invigorator of the system, I do not mean to be without it when ever occasion may require Its use in such affec tions. M.
