A Livk IIome JoiENAt. Notable CuanCs
:l
Last October, Hearth and IIowr passed in
to the hands of Obange Jidd & Co., of 245
Broadway, New York, the well known publish
ers of the American Acriccltdrist a journal
long without a rival in sterling ralue and cir
culation. The marked improvements then ex
pected to appear In IIsaiith and Home have
been fully realized, and it ia row one of the
choicest illustrated journals anywhere issued
for the family circle adapted to both the
juvenile and adult people, and meeting the
special wants of the housekeeper. Besides, it
supplies very useful chapters for the garden
and farm, and an important news sheet, giving
a valuable resums of the news for a week, 'up
to the moment of issue. From $500 to $00
worth of very fine engravings beautify each
weekly number. We notice now a still'further
mark of enterprise on the part of the publish
crs ; tbey have secured the exclusive editorial
services of Edward Eggleston, so. widely and
tavorably known by his writing in Scribxer's
Mon-tiht , and manv other Macaifmes and
Journals, and especially as the chief superin
tending t.auor oi trie inew iork Isdei-endent
for eorne time past. With this notable addi
tion to the previously large and strong editori
al force. Hearth and Home can not fail to
merit and command a promineut place in every
household, in city, village, and country.
Specimen copies can doubtle-s be obtained of
the publishers, as above. Terms only 83 a
year, bmgle numbers b cents. Hearth and
Home and Amkrican Agriculturist together,
4 a year. Better add one or both of them to
your supply of reading ; they are each worth
infinitely more than the small cost.
Township Accounts We have alreadv re- i
ferred to the law passed at the last session of
the Legislature, by which township clerks are
required, within sixty days after the annual
election, to make out and publish a full and
complete statement of the financial condition
of the township, under a penalty of $50.
1 here are many townships in every county of
the Commonwealth of whose financial condi
tion nothing whatever is known, and of which
but little could be learned from the records as
they have been or are now kept. This is not
only a source of great inconvenience and em
barrassment, but of great dissatisfaction among
the people, and a discredit to officers, which
it is the purpose of this law to remedy. Let the
new law be enforced, then, that the people of
each township may have a detailed statement
of how their money is collected and expended,
and ofthe way their accounts are kept. If this
enactment is lived up to as it should be St will
prove a source of profit and satisfaction to every
township. There is nothing better calculated
to make men careful and honest than a knowl
edge of the fact that their accounts must be
placed before the public for critical inspection.
Perious Charge. From Altootm, that x-itv
of atfoiniiiatioiift, conies another criminal case
which, if half the revolting- details connected
with it be true, is the most outraeou nnd im
moral afl'air which has ever disgraced the an
nals of this county. At present, however, we
have to do with only one feature of the case,
nnd that brietiy. Wednesday morning- last was
brought trom Altoona ana committed to ttie
oouufy jail a liiiudlo aed man named Jona
than Davis, charged, on oath of , his wife, with
the commission ofa dastardly outrage upon the
jwrsnn of his step-daug-hter, a younjr jrirl about
thirteen years ot aire. Mrs. Davis, who was a
widow and the mother of two daughters when
sho married her present husband, alleges that
she learned from ber child some time ago of
the brutal occurrence. Fearinsr a repetition of
the outrage, she sent her daughter front home.
t pon discovering the absence or the child, Da
vis, it is asserted, new into a passion and made
such terrible threats of what h? would do un
less she was brouyht home, that his wife, nlarm-
n't for her life, bad him arresttd on the charge
already referred to. As we have hinted, there
are other circumstances connected with this
ease which render it peculiarly revolting, but
to tborte wo do not deem it expedient to refer
at present. llollidaipfburu Standard.
Pa. Williaj A. Smith, formerly cf this
olace, now a resident of Philadelphia, is here
on a visit and intends remaining for a few
'ecics. He is in the enjoyment of excellent
health, and looks but little older than a dozen
years ago. ro xormer citizen oi our town uas
warmer or more sincere Inends among our
people than the Doctor, all of whom are pleased
to see him in their midst, It is quite unneces
sary to say that Dr. Smith's faith in the prin
ciples or the Democratic party is as firm and
unwavering as ever, and that his political con
victions have grown in their intensity as the
passir-s years have added to his age. Against
any imputation or want ot leaity to the ureat
party of which, he is so enthusiastic a member,
Dr. Smith can literally say :
"This rock
From its firm base shall tiv
As soon as I."
Genuine Wit. We never suspected that
the Herald man had the least bit of humor in
his composition, but if the following, clipped
from last week's issue, is not what Ai tenuis
Ward would have called "sarkasm," we con
fess we don't know under what head to put it:
Xever were our prospects betier ; and if our
county convention does what is right, Cam
bria will this fall be redeemed from the hands
of the Democracy." Out of justice to the
Herald man we will say that he didn't attempt
anything else in the way of editorial last week.

AROOD TO MAUABA.
to the Editor nf thr Vamhria Freeman:
In your paper of last week you mention my
having gone to Niagara, and that 1 bad prom
ised you "a graphic account of the tiip." I
don't think I used the word "graphic" in my
promise ; but I will try to give some account
of my tour, hoping that it may prove not uuhi
teresting.
J arrived in Williamsport at noon of Tues
day, the frith inst. Here I found the pedagog
ical fraternity 6trongly represented from all
parts of the State, and among them our friend
Prof. Geo. W, Cope, of Johnstown, who greet
ed me warmly, and informed me that Jie had
at my disposal a share in a first rate nom in
"the little house around the comer," as he
termed it, meaning the Herdic House, which
is beyond all question one of the finest and
largest hotels in Pennsylvania.
1 found that the teachers' convention had
organieed ; aud so after a sumptuous dinner,
we went down to the Academy of ilusic, in
which tho sessions of the convention was held,
paid ray membership fee of one dollar, and sat
down to watch the pregrcss of affairs. The
session -vras chiefly occupied in the considera
tion of tesolutions of respect for the memory
of the late Dr. Burrowes, of Lancaster.
Speeches were made on the subject by Hon.
II. C. Hickok, Pioiessor Brooks, and others.
Of course, the resolutions passed unanimously.
We learned also that the proposed excursion
would leave Williamsport at 7 o'clock Thurs
day evening, arrive at Niagara Friday morning,
leave Niagara Friday evening and arrive ut
Williamsport Saturday morning. As we had
a desire to see the country through which we
were to pass, and some circumstances making
it quite evident that we should be more missed
by the convention if we remained than if wo
left, decided us to leave for Niagara VYednes
day mortiing.
There aro several routes from Williamsport
to Niagara. The convention excursion, us I
have since learned, went by way of Elmira and
the Erie railroa'd. Going after night, as they
did, it was the best, as being the shortest anil
cheapest. We went by the Northern Central
and New Yo k Central railroads.
We left Williamsport at about 5 o'clock in
the morning. On the railroad platform we
y. ere surprised to find Mr. TbemasJ. Davis,
of Ebensburg, on his way to some friends in
the neighborhood of Utica, New York. As
his route was in good part the same as ours,
we were glad to add him to our party.
Wednesday, the 9th inst., was a beautiful
day, and we went rattling through the Lycom
ing woods and fields at a great rate. The
scenery along this part of the way is uninter
esting. Fifty-three miles from Williamsport
we came to Troy, a fine town in Bradford
county. Sixteen mile3 further on we crossed
the State line, and nine miles further still we
came to Elmira, New York, a busy railroad
town of about 1G.0C0 inhabitants. Leaving
tlmira, wo spun along the bank of the Che
mung caual past Horse Heads, Millport, Ha
vana, to Watkins, at the southern extremity
of SenecA Lake. At Watkins we had two
hours to spare, which we spent chiefly in ram
bling through Watkins' Glen, at one end of
the town. This famous glen is one of the
most romantic and lovely spots imaginable.
We went all through it, climbed up the dizzy
precipice, aLd returLed to tho town through a
cemetery so beautiful and quiet that I hope
only good people sleep there. Returning to
town, we took dinner at the Langdon House, a
comfortable home-like place convenient to the
depot.
Our excursion tickets called for a voyage on
Seneca Lake. This lake is 35 miles long and
from two to five miles wide. We embarked on
the "Onondaga," a fine side-wheel steamer,
at 1 10 o'clock in the afternoon, ai.d put off
for (jeucva at the opposite extremity of the
lake. The voyage on the lake was most de
lightful. The sb amer was provided with every
convenience, and the passengers, w ho all seem
ed tourists like ourselves, were good humored
and agreeable. What with running the length
of the !ake, and crossing from one sido to the
other several times to take on and put off pas
sengers, at the different landings, it was about
5 o'clock in the afternoon when we got to Ge
neva. This is a pleasant, respectable old town
of eorne ID.OCO inhabitants. Here we struck
the New York Central railroad, and here we
were obliged to part from our rood friend
Davis, with whom we had spent a pleasant day.
He took the eastern-bound train for LTtica, and
a few minutes afterward, we were thundering
along towards the sett? sun.
Thev make good time on tha New York
Central ; tbi3 evening in particular they were
nearly an hour behind time at Geneva, but at
Kochester, lifty-one miles distant, we were only
about five minutes behind time. I don't think
I was ever before so whirled about as in going
from Geneva to Rochester.
Twenty-three miles from Geneva we came
to Canandaiua, a handsome town of some
10,OtJO inhabitants. This town is situated at
the northern extremity of the lake of the same
narao, and is the county scat of Ontario coun
ty, i ne town is very mucn scattered ; so
much so that the express agent at the place
told us that when he got half-a-dozen pack
ages it took Lioi all day to deliver them.
Tweuty-cight miles northwest of Canandai-
prua wo came to Rochester. This is a prosper
ous city of over 6tJ,U(K) inhabitants. It is sit
uated on the Genesee river, seven miies from
its mouth. Rochester is distinguished for its
manufactures, especially of flour, for wbitth it
has acquired a wide-spread reputation. At
this place we had two hours to wait; but there
was so much bustle and business going on that
tho lime did not hang heavily on our hands.
It was between ten and eleven o'clock in
the evening that we left Rochester, and went
rushing along through the darkness towards
.Niagara. Pilty-seven miles trom Kochester
we passed Lockport, on the Erie canal, au im
portant town of about 15,000 inhabitants, and
about eighteen miles lurther on we came to the
railroad suspension bridge, where was a gen
eral overhauling of passengers and baggage,
some going over into Canada, some to Buli'.t
lo, and some to the Falls. We were among
the latter ; and after a short ride of two miles
further we brought up in the town of Niagara
Falls, at one o'clock at night.
Wo went to the Spencer House, an excellent
hotel in the neighborhood of the depot. The
house was about full; but we succeeded in get
ting a bed, and retired about two o'clock aud
slept the sleep of the just.
But we were up bright and early the next
morning, for we had gone to aleep with the
eternal roar of Niagara in our ears, and were
all impatient to see the falls. We eaw the
falls. Wo spent the day lingering over their
strange, wild, awful beauty and magnificence,
and have glorious pictures engraved in hearts
from which they can never fade away.
Very truly, &c.,, T. J. Chapman.

Dear Freeman The great project of build
ing a rsilroad to Somerset town does not ex
cite the people as much now as it did at first.
There is an abatement of interest, but it may
be that it is the calm that precedes the storm.
We hope there is no such word as fail in this
matter.
A new market house is spoken of. One is
badly needed. It is to be two hundred feet
Ion", fifty feet wide, and two stories high. I
do not think it will be built this fall, but late
ia better than never.
There is also some talk abbut erecting a
soldiers monument on the public square. I be
cemetery would certainly be the proper place
for a monument of that description. There is
no probability of its erection at present, what
ever there may be in the future, j
Theie i9 no excitement hi polit cal matters
here, and perhaps will be none till the Repub
lican nominations have been mado. After
that look out for tho Heathen Chinee.
I lm not heard from the Wilmore pic uic,
K.,t i,,i,a i hem was a rood turnout, and that
UUW . D
"Soltero" will report it.
rn hundred and thirty wasrons stood around
market square on la6t Saturday morning, filled
;ih irsrden vegetables and sich like.
Woodvale borough has introduced wildcat
water and cas. Jt is thought that uotn wooien
factories will use the wildcat water. However,
1 think not, as the Conemaugh river is so con
veuieut.
Tho schools of Johnstown are to resume
business on MoDday. Millville borough will
open on August 2b'th.
There is a good deal of improvement going
on in the streets iu the shape of repaying and
rcgrading.
Riffle's livery bazaar is now an Institution
of our town, the proprietor having a large sta
ble well ventilated, with wildcat water, sub
stantial earthen floor, nice office, good horses
aud excellent carriages. It is located ih the
rear of Benford's Hotel. When you come
down Mr. Uiflie will do the poiile thing, if you
desire an airing.
The contract for the sale of the Ivernville
iron bridge in this place was closed on last
Saturday, at one o'clock, ai d sicned by the
High Contracting Parties the President and
Secretary of the bridge Company on the one
side, and Buigess Strayer and the Secretary of
the Town Council on the other side. The bor
ough will get possession of the bridge on the
first day ot October, 1871, from which lime it
will be a free bridge, The bridge paid the
stockholders about twelve per ceut.. while the
borough bonds will not pay them more than
six per cent. But if another bridge had been
built this one might not have paid three per
cent. So nicely was the thing balar.ccd.
John Thomas has justcomplefed a very large

PATIIOI.OCT.
Tn a person whoso growth is stationary- the
quantity of food passing into the body in a
given tune is exactly equivalent to the quanti
ty of matter passing away iu tho various excre
tions. The whole of the food is dissolved in the
body, and the greater portion is absorbed into
the blood to renew the tissues, tho nourishment
of the body being dependent upon this quality
of the blood.
A rich ldood favors nutrition and growth,
whilst a diseased quality of blood depresses
and destroys that which is already formed.
Whilst tile blood thus givesout to each organ
or part of the body the means of repairing
itself, by furnishing it with material of growth,
it at the same time washes away, as it were,
whatever elements of their tissues that have
become diseased, worn out, or useless.
These are passed olf in the excretions, and in
healthy adults exactly correspond in amount
with the iunntity of food taken.
When the body becomes diseased tho urinary
excretion gives out tiieso diseased particles in
excess while the docliue of the body is going
on.
The same when any organ or part of the body
only becomes diseased ; the urinary excretion
gives out an excess of diseased particles from
i hat nirU wheu a decay of that organ is going
on.
These Urine-Pathological ffefs arc so appar
ent, especially ia chronic diseases, that every
physician having the welfare of his patient at
leirt-, 6hould. in prescribing remedies, vatrh
their influence upon fie m ine and persevere in
that particular remedy which produces tho
mu6t healthy condition of that lluid, for it
points out with certainty the changes made in
tho condition of any and every rgan of the
body. These urir.o chemical investigations
have been our constant practice for more than
twenty years. And we would just say, that
they have revealed to us tho existence of many
serious diseases long before other mode of in
vestigation had been nbleto indicate them, and
have thrown a Hood of light upon fuo cause,
progress and treatment of many chronic diseases
which would otherwise have been involved in
much obscurity at lcu&t, aud perhaps never
have been cured without.
Keaders.if any of you have incipient Consump
tion, organic disease of the Invert Kidneys or
rleen, Heart Disease, Dyspepsia, Asthma,
Dropsy or ck-rof ula ; or should your complaint
be at all obscurein its character, or should you
be in any dimht as to the true cause of a decline
in your health, or of tho aches, pains, deriuiur
?nen'., difficulties and wo A no' x under which
you may be laboring into decay, havetho exam
