Music, orations, and a drama, C Uobert Emmet") constituted the intellectual treat spread out before us. At this disunite of time, and without a programme, I am able to mention only a few of the young gentlemen who diat4ufruisb.ed themselves. Mr. btillwagen delivered tne Valedictory a beautiful compo sition, alike creditable to his head and heart. In it he showed how lively were the wnt4nients of gratitude with which he regarded the contin ued efforts of enlightened leal nu.le for his progress and that of his young companions, by the Hey, President, A. J. Brown, and tho devo ted relhrious Professors of ths College. Mr. Cronin delivered an oration of irrcat merit and far beyond what miht be locked for from so youthful a speaker. Mr. Marley, of Philadel phia, In a humerous character and Mr. St ill wa gon In the character of Emmet, bore orT the palnj in the drama. The innate was under the direction of iiev. IT. 8.

O., of Altoona, presented the tcstl- moniais and prizes. Attcr tu close of the ex ercises tho clergymen and many othei-s present partook of a buuntlful repast prepared by tho Brothers. In the afternoon of the same davwe attended the exhibition at JSt Aloysius. Tho audience was not quite so large as at St. Francis, owing to the want of room. The exercises were mu sic, instrumental and vocal, sacred and other wise, with plays Interspersed. The little ones made a humorous exposition of their grievan ces at tha hands of the older pupils. A French play, entitled "La Petite Maman," was well rendered. I doubt if Parisian giria couid have yone through it more naturally or move cor rectly. Miss Bigley performed, on the hurp, some choice pieces, both alone and with phtuo accompaniments. The drama, "Christianity in the Primitive Ages," was the crowiuus part of the exercises. The younij ladies liad entered fully and appreciatingly into tne spirit ot the characters vhloh they represented, and, as u consequence, were able to givo -xpressiou to their sentiments in the most natural and grace ful manner. How much more to the purpose are such specimens of thw drama thau are thuse so ofteu presented!

JDear Frttm an There was a picnic at Mineral Point on Saturday, 2d Inst. ; also, ono in Wood vale on the same day. On tim Fourth the As Bibtanc Fire Company and another lire compa ny, the Zouaves, and eight or nine orders of va rious kind, paraded the streets of our town in full uniform and regalia. They made a bril liant appearance and a long procession. H. A. Boggs read the Declaration from a platform on the Public Square. Considerable iowder was wasted during tho day and by a pyrotechnic dljplav in tho evening. On the Sth tho Ameri can Mechanics, numberinjr over one hundred, faraded the streets and listened to a speech de iverod by J. A. Burn?, of Philadelphia, who pitched roujrn 6hod Into the radical jrame of Im porting coolies from China by the ship load to take tne places of the white mechanics and la boring rr.en of America. The members of the order named elicited much admiration in their magntneent regalias, insignias of oiBce, etc. Cn the same day (Saturday last) the Regular Bap tist church held a picnic on Toiler Hill, west of town, which is said to have been a very pieasaut affair. Thus were the 2d, 4th and Uth days of July celcM sted in this vicinity all intended no doubt Te h&ner the birthday of freedom on the Western cons inent and thus I briefly report them, as the time is pant and gone and the fen tlvitie which marked two of the occasions at least are almost among the tldngs forgotten. The District Court ws in session here last week for several days, but 1 faited to get a re port 01 its doings, uourt nveu?a but Old Dot transact any businee on the 4th. The Johnstown schools have a fivo wwkV va cation, but for what reason I have not learned. Tie weather is not very warm certainly tha nights are not and a well ventilated school room is one of the coolest places iniaginublo, unless your Imagination gets down to the freez ing point and takes In an ice house. There is no doubt sufficient reason for having the vaca tion, however, so I propose to let them go on with the vacate and I will go on with something else A party of ladies and gentlemen spent a few days last week at Sulphur Springs, Somerset county. They enjoyed themselves in fishing and playing crocvet, and returned home perfect ly unmolested and as happy as people generally are when their fun is all ovr. The theatres have collapsed during the warm weather, but arrangements are being made to have both inflated and in running order about tbflrst of September. Tne removal meeting did not. come oil during Court week, as was expected. The cauar of the delinquency can only be traced to the fact that the Public Square was not large enough to hold the multitude I The foundation of an Immense woolen factory is now being laid in Woodvale and the brick work will be pushed rapidly to completion. I am told that an effort is to be made- to have a new township, to be called Grant, formed out of a part of Jackson township. The project may end in smoko, however.as its name would Mum to indicate Gran t and smoke being Inseperable. Htill, as about forty-even Grants oould be made out of one Jackson, I can't see any good reason why the old township shouldn't be made to bear one affliction of the kind without a murmur.. Almost a tiro occurred here a few nights ugo. Some bovs wbo were at play in the stable of Henry Walters accidentally set flre to the build ing. An alarm was raised in time to save it and a large portion of the town from destruction. Ass't Marshal Englebach has Just coinploted the census of Conemaugh borough, which num bers about 2,400 inhabitants more by several hundred than it was set down for. It and Johns town, and Millvilie. and adjoining boroughs, will make an aggregate of over!2,ou0, perhaps 13,000, aud the other populous nooks and corners will swell the roll to 17,000 or thereabout?!.

There will be an abundance of hay this year. In fact everything is lovely and the goose occupies an extremely elevated position.

OVIt COMMOS HCUOOL8. Report for ibe Year ending JUhe 6, 70. I. Educational Progress ts tnK Cotjtt. Our school interests during the year past F .mt,wh,a - "riY b- scarcity of teachers, i!'Pi ? K,ta.r aatlsey were lntiueuccd bv this, Si iSSt"1 ffooT ogress. This progress is IndlcaieM in several particulars; as, first, in ah SiSTSS6 U tbe le.nefh of trm In manv of the aisti lets. In no fewer than eiarht districts was I,, h,,nr.or i?1? Df hool than last year, and wvLeiiii,',c.t' containing but two schools, hivUri a aLnbr lerm- To Taylor township belongs the honor of being the first diPtrlct In ou r wu n ty , except the Ikji ou h-towns,to ex U-nd the length of her School term beyond the mini mum period prescribed by law. At the samn time ehe increased the wages of her teachers un average of $4.70 per mouttl over tho wages of last year. AH honor to Tavlor township ! The new whool dUtrict of Franklin has commenced wen sui ting out with a term of five month, lhe Increased term of school in . the eight dis tricts to which 1 have referred. !. pufficlent to mako an avevnge ihcreasi? in all tho schools of the county of .44 of a month equal to about ten days. A second indication of the advancement we nave tnade is the increase in wages. In eighteen d.stricts which I have heard from up to the timfe ? . yrltinjr. tho average increase is $2.17. Thus t is the public craduilllv cotnintr un tr iti rlntv tn i the teachers of our common schools. Thin in one of the most gratifying developments of Ihe post year. It isan evidence that ourschool sys tem has found au abiding lodgment in tne pub lic heart. As a third evidence of educational proirrpss, I w oul.l remark that in the eighteeh districts re ferred to, there has been an increase of 102 pu P.1'8 over the number enrolled last year. Be sides these, I might refer toother indications that In Cambria county the school system is properly appreciated and sustained. I am sat isfied that the qualifications of our teachers as a rul were higher, and that our schools gener ally were more successful than last vear. In a large rtitthber of schools we had an average at tendance of over 90 per cent. Several hous were built during the year, and in a few dis tricts sotne of tho old houpes were furnisht-d with improved seats and desks, and quite a num ber of districts were partially supplied with ex cellent apparatus, such as reading tablets, pen manship chart, etc. Ebensbnrg furnished her high school with beautiful globes, tellurian, or rery, and other philosophical apparatus, and Johnstown, under the auspices of Dr. W. W. Walters, secretary of the school board, has be- fan a cabinet cf natural science for her high ehOol, which promise to become not onlv a valuable auxiliary to the Bchool but a credit to the town. II. EurcATioNAi. Work Dost by Superin tendent, F.xaminatiorjr. In order to do awav with pri vate examinations altogether, I resolved to fol low up the regular public examinations. Hence, I held thirty-two public examinations five more than the year before, but I was forced to grant only thirteen private examinations.which was twelve less then the year previous. Onlv the extreme exigency of the case induced me to grant any private examinations at all; and I am determined to "shut down" on the practice entirely for the year to come, if it can be done. Of those examined, eighty-two were men, and one hundred and forty-four were women ; and of those rejected, seventeen were men, and eighteen wore women. Hence, of the male ap plicants for certificates about twenty er cent, were incompetent, while of the female appli cants only about twelve per cent, were incom petent. As la.-t year so this year I was obli-fd by the scarcity of teachers to afterward admit some of the best of those that had been rejected at the regular examinations. Ccrti.fi'-iUes. During the year I grant-d one hundred and ninety-oneprovlslonaicertiQcutes, This was fourteeu more than th year before. The average grade of these certificates is .6. Besides th;se, a considerable number of certifi cates from other counties were endorsed. Three professional certificates wete also issued. As I remarked last year, "it i to be borne in mind that the number of certifhjatesiinied, and the number of candidates rejected, form no true index of the number of persons examined, as many individuals were examined two and even three times. Account was kept of these per sons only once." Ffcrffs. Owing to ill health and bad weather, I was unable to visit all the schools that were open during the year. I succeeded in making one hundred and fifty-eight visits, and spent on an average nearly cno and a quarter hours in each school. In these visits I onserved the methods of teaching pursued, made such suggestions as I thought proper, took such memoranda as the Depart rnejit has directed, sometimes conducted a recitation, and nearly ulways made a chort address to the pupils. I was'acconipAnied in twenty-five of these visit by school director. Quite a number of schools wore closed at the time I tried to visit them. These are not include.-! in the number given above. It was very annoying to walk five or six miles to :i school house, and find it closed. Many of these disap pointments were owing to the fact that the sec retaries In some of the districts failed to for ward the repci-t which the law has required, and I had no means of knowing whether the schools wer in operation or not. Other n orli. In addition to all this. I wrote Over one hundred letters on official business, and scores of columns of educational matter for newspapers, magazines, etc., and attended institutes aud educational conventions. During the year I travelled nearly 2.1!0 miles in tho dis charge of the dutifs of my olEoc. In fact, I tried" to earn and I think I diVl earn my ialary. III. EDrcATioNAi. Work done by other Agen cies. A normal institute was opened in Loretto ou the -let of June, and continued about e!rht. w eeks. It was conducted by myself. The school was well attended, and I believe was productive" of good. St. Francis' College and St. Aloysius" Acade my in Ixiretto have both greatly enlarged their buildings and increased their faciiith'S, which alone is sufficient to indicate their well deserved fopularity and prosperity. Tho lLnnan (ittho ic boarding school for boys in Ebensburg, of which mention was made in my last report, has been for some time past in successful operation. The night schools in Johnstown and its su burbs, oi which I have made mention in former reports, were continued hist winter. The gen erosity of the Cambria Iron Company in estab lishing aud maintaining those institutions is deserving of all praise. The county institute was heliTin Ebensburg, commencing Monday, Deeomber 27th. It was attempted to run this convention entirely with out the assistance of any person outside of the profession in our county- Iu this we succeeded. S'otAeven a book agent made his appearance. Thf institute passed off very agreeably, and I believe vas profitable to sill concerned. The attendance was but slightly below that of the previous year. IV. Obstacles In the Way or Improvement. I have several times In the course of this re port alluded to a scarcity of teachers. We had indeed great difficulty in securing teachers to fill our bchools. and in f.ct a fw of tho schools were not. filled at ail or but for a very short time. Others were commenced after the holi day's; and some of our teachers taught two terms. At several of the public examinations no teachers at all were secured, and at others not more 'than two or three. It is (rue that in all I issued about ten certificates moro than we have schools, but some of those who received certificates did not teach at all, and some of the certificates were granted very late in the yiair. It is ono very serious obstacle in tho way of im provement that we have so small a corps of teachers, ami that we are compelled to take just such teachers as we can get. Another difficulty to contend against is the singular apulhrof parents. They are univer sally in favor of the causo of common schools; but at tiie sanie tiino they are so absorbed in the art of money getting, that they neglect the schools. This neglect is appnrant from these particulars: 1st, they scarcely ever visit the schools; 2d, their children are allowed to al snt themselves too much from school ; and, 3d, thev fail to provide them with proper books. It is not necssary to dilate on these points. Of course, there are the old difficulties of low wages and short terms; but, as I attempted to show in the outlet, these dilficulties seem to be giving wav. The good work so nobly accoin- flished in this direction id tho year just closed, hope may be continued and extended in the year to come. V. Meapurks calculated to promote Im provement. I know of but little that can be done to pro mote improvement, except to continue tho pol icy of the past year. To effect much improve ment in the face of the dilficulties which exist here asI have tried to define them, we must go to the root of the matter, and educate the pub lic sentiment. We can do this by means of the Press, by educational meetings, nd by a con scientious discharge of our duties as teachers, directors, and superintendent. In a community where the people endeavor so well and deserve so well, arid where I have been treated with such unintermitted courtesy and indulgence, it id hard to find fault, and I have but little fault to find.

"Life in Utah, or the Mysteries and Crimes of Motmonimn ; being an expose of their secret rites and eeremonifs, with a full and authen tic history of Polygamy and -the Mormon sect, from its origin to the present time;" by J. H. Beadle, editor of the Suit Lake Reporter. National Publishing Company, Phiiad'a, Pa. A most valuable work, jusc Issued and to be sold by subscription only; For more than thirty years the world has been horrified, stai tied and perplexed by the audacitv and success of a sect calling them selves Mormons. Though founded iii fraud, this sect has succeeded in spite of oil opposi tion until it is to-day the Standing reproach of our country. Tbe Author's long residence in Utah, and his position as editor of tlic leading journal of thai Territory, peculiarly qualified him to write this work. Mormon is tit has been productive of eo many daik arid strange mysteries so many terrible crimes that few can comprehend, without an intimate know ledge of it, how much wickedness it has to answer for, aud what a standing menace to order and society it is. The work shows how Joe Smith and Brlg ham Young have been enabled to deceive and cheat tbtir followers ; how, by kadirg them on from crime to crime, and enticibg them with licentious baits, thev have succeeded in main taining their ii fluent-e over them ; aiid treats of the Mormon religion, its infamous and heathenish character, its multitude of gods, its abominable doctrines and practices, reveal ing many strange and outrageous ceremouies. Of ih'EndGwmeut" or initiation ceremonies, phowinghow- ob-cene aud disgusting they are ; bow female modest? is outraged in them, and how licentiousness is taught as a part of their religious creed. ll is important that the public should know w hat manner of people are growing up ir our vet y midst. This work gives a lull nd an tlier.tSc account of their degraded social con dition, their blasphemous rites and ceremo nies; their sacrilegious doctrines ahd practices, and is tho most thrilling and tdartlibg account of licentiousness and crime ever published. It is calculated to do great good by giving to tLe public a candid nnd impartial statement of a question which bids fair to cause no little trou b!e.

KEOGH. At East Liberty, Pa., on Sunday imtrniug last. July 10th. of disease of the heart. Rev. James Keogh, D. D., aged 36 years, 5 inos. and 6 days." Tho sad and melancholy intelligence conveyed in the above brief announcement fell likapall upon the hearts of the ir.Rny friends ot this highly gif ted and greatly beloved priest, who was recognized as one of the brightest lights ia the Catholic Church and a theologian of extra ordinary ability and decided proficiency. As u.e last year ana a nait ot nis iite wus spent up on the mountain, those among us who had the opportunity of listening to his eloquent and impressive sermons and who learned to appre ciate his goodness of heart, need not be told that a ripu scholar, a faithful and carueat pries, t, a true friend and on unerring spiritual adviser and director has been called to the judgment seat of God to give an account, of his steward ship while a sojourner in this "vole of tears." Dr. Kkoh, as we learn from tho Pittsburgh Punt, was born in Kuniscorthv, Countv uf Wex ford. Ireland, on the 4th of February ."1534. His family came to this country ifi 141. lie entered St. Michael's Seminary, Birmingham, at the age of twelve years. In the following vear he was cont to the CVilleg-e or Propaganda at Rone by the Rt. Iiev. M. O'Connkh, then Bit-hop of Pitts burgh, and after a course of studies of nine years, during which he distinguished himself in nis proficiency in theological science, ho took the degree of Doctor of Divinity by a public act. The Holy Father honored tho occasion with his presence, and expressed his approbation by tho gift of a valuable mosaic to the young theolo gian. He was ordained iu Rome by tha Cardinal Vicar on the Sth of August, ltoti. On bis return to his Diocese he taught theology atSt. Michael's Seminary, of which institution ho was after wardss for a short time. President. On lving this Diocese, in 1S64. he was appointed Professor of Scripture and Dogmatic Theology in the Seminary of St. Charles Barromeo, Philadelohin. He whs also, at different periods, the editor of the Pittsburgh CathnlU:, and of the Philadelplua Catholic Standard. During the preparation of tho material for tho late Pienarv Council of Baltimore, he was employed by the Most Rev. Archbishop Spalwnu as one of his theologians. He also acted as one of the Secretaries of ihe Council. For the last two years, owing to fe blc health, he had partially withdrawn from ac tive duties, and had resided for the last eighteen months at St. Aua-ustine, this county, ahd died as above stated, after only a few weeks illncssi fortified and consoled by the sacraments of that Churc h in which he was a firm believer and a most learned and efficient clergyman. Reuics cat in paw-. KENNEDY. In Carrol!tow-n, on Friday, June 24th, 1S70, Henry Michael, infant son of John A. and Mary Ann Kennedy, aged S days: KENNEDY. In Carroiltown, on FrUlav, July 1st, 1870, Mary Ann, consort of John A. Kenne dy, Esq., aged 2S years, 2 months and S days. It was my melancholy privilege to attend the funeral of Mrs. Kennedy on the day following her death, and nt none of the many solemn pro cessions ol like chnracU r in which I have joined have Lever witnessed such.grcat manifestations of real affection and sincere sorrow. Knowing in life as 1 did the young wife and mother now stricken down by the destroying hand of death, and knowing as I do the deeply bereaved hus baud and three little children thus suddenly be reft of a mother's love and a mother's earn, and realizing us I do that a happy household, in which me and mine and many other neighbors have spent many pleasant hours, has been inva ded and made desolate by that dread visitor. Death, it would ill become me to pass by the demise of a lady so amiable, eo Christian and so greatly beloved as Mre. Kennedy was, without attemptinar in my own humble way to pay trib ute to her high character and tender iny heart felt sympathies to those whom her early death have rendered almost iucousoiable. Tho funer al was attended by a large concourse of sorrow ing friends and relatives in fact, by the entire community and at the grave the scene was of the most impressive and touching character. Little Alice, a sweet child of about eight years of age, and her little brother Gile. some two years younger, stood at tho grave nf their fond and gentle mother she whose kind heart will never moro in this life throb with love for her orlepring, whose hand will never again minister to their childish wants, whose silent tongue will never more address to them wordl.of affection and consolation and as they stood there thev sobbed and cried as If their young hearts would break with grief. No wonder, ipdeed, that stout, rugged, healthy men turned away their heads to hide their tears ! It was a scene well calcu lated to stir up the better feelings of the human heart and enkindle in each the hope that their eud like hers may be peace. The last solemn rites on this occasion were not made up of out ward show and pompous splendor, but in the true and sincere tribute cf deepest grief and purest aff eotionlhas the;epitiph of Mrs.;Kenne dy been writteu and her cherished memory for ever been embalmed in the hearts of those who "knew her but to lovo her, who named her but to praise." Many a year must elapse ere those who took part in paying the lost honors to the mortal remains of ber who in life was a true wife, an ofiectionate mother, a kind and oblig ing neighbor, and a sincere and devout Christ ian, will forget the solemn and Impressive sceno which occurred at the time of her interment. May none of them, while they continue to re member the many virtues of the deceased, fail to oiler a heartfelt prayer for her soul's eternal welfare. K.

Drutfcist: Dear Sib I have been a sufferer, for upward of twenty years, with gravel, bladder, and kid ney affections, during which timo j have used various medicinal preparations, and been under tho treatment of the rao?t eminent rhyticiane, cxperieacinr bntitittle relief. Having seen your preparations extensively advertised, I consulted with my family physi cian In regard to using your Extract Buchu. . 1 did this because 1 bad used all kind of adver tised remedies, and bad found them worthless, and soine quite injurious; iu fact, I despaired of ever getting well, and determined to use no remedies thereafter unless I knew of the Ingres diests. It was this that prompted me to use. your remedy. As you advertised that it was composed of buebu, cubebs and juniper berries it occurred to me and my physician a an excel lent combination, and, with his advice, sfter an examination of the article, and consulting again with tho druggist, r.coucluded to try it. I com menced it use about eight months ago. at which time I was confined to my room. From the first bottle I was astonished and gratified at the ben eficial effect, and after uaing it three weeks, was able to walk out. I felt much like writing yo'i a statement of iny 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 abic to report that . cure U effected after using the remedy for five months, I have not used any now for three monthst and foci as well in all respects as I ever did. Your liuchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor, a nice tonic and lnvigorator of the system, I do not mean to be without it when ever occasion may require its use in such affocj tions. m.
