The very liberal premiums offered by the Man

Burned to Dkato. A four year old son of
Mr. Michael Toohey, of Coneniaugh borough,
was burned to death on Wednesday mornui"
last, during the absence of his parents, who
were attending the forty hours' devotion then
in LToress at the Catholic church. The child
ha'i been left in charge of the older children of
Mr. Toohey, but child like they soon forgot
theh trust, and leaving the little fellow in the
boa-e by himself, went in pursuit of amuse
ment elsewhere. During their absence the
helpless chilJ possess! himself of some match
es. i.nd, as might be expected, set fire to his
cioihes, and the terrible result stated above
was the consequence. Xo person was near at
the time to subdue the flimes, and if we are
rightly informed, nothing was known of the
shocking aff-ir until the innocent little victim
nu oeen meraiiy roasted alive. hat a ter
rible lesson does this sad and lamenuble ca
tastrophe convey to the parents of. young and
help!es children, and how unttuiittiiig in their
watchfulness should all be who have little ones
under their care or control. This is indeed a
sad warning, but it is to be hoped that it will
not be without soma good results.
A Pleasant Picnic We do not know when
we enjoyed ourself bo much as we did on Mon
day last among the good people of Chest tow u
ship. The occasion was a picnic at St. Boni
face m aid of the church building at that plate,
and we are sure that no more pleasant or suc
cessful festival of the kind baa ever numbered
us among its attendants. But nothing less
than a good time could be expected among the
Germans, no matter where they abide, for no
people in the -world know better how to be
nappy themselves and make everybody else
happy when they undertake to do it. We shall
ever think with pleasure of the picnic at St.
Boniface, and particularly of the 6ixteen good
aud true men, nearly all ardent young demo
crats, who added their xi lines to our subscrip
tion list on that occasion.
Supposed Infanticide The authorities of
Carrolltown borough are just now, or were the
early part of the w eek, engaged in the effort to
discover the whereabouts of the illegitimate
child of a widow woman of bad repute in that
place, and of which i: is known that she was
delivered some two months ago. On Monday
they cleaned oat the well on her premises, and
since then other localities have been searched,
but th'is far, we believe, the missing infant has
not beau found. Jt may be that the child has
been oi-posed of in some other way, but the
general impression seerut to be that the little
unfortunate has met with a violent deatri. 1 be
arrest of the woman on suspicion is talked of.
Further investigation may throw more lighten
the subject.
If all our readers in this vicinity knew
as we know what a proficient performer on the
violin Prof. V m. tiler is, they would allow
nothing to deter them from going to hear him
at tho Court House this (Thursday) evening.
lie ia one of the most enchanting violinists we
ever listened to, and it there was nothing else,
which there is the concert being vocal as well
as instrumental, a young lady doing the sing
ing Mr. Eller ought to be greeted by an im
mense audience, and we are much mistaken in
the musical tastes of our people if they do not
give him a grind ovation this evening. Don't

Another Fatal Railroad Accident. A
lad named Frank Gillin, about 10 years of age,
son of Neal Gilliu, of Galiitzin, was so badly
injured by a train ot freight cars, at the east
end of the Penna. R. R. Tunnel, on Monday
evening last, that he died in a short time after.
flow the accident occurred seems to be a mys
tery, as the presence of the poor little fellow
was unknown to any one until his man "led
and almost lifeless body waa found on the
track. One of his lesrs was ternMv
and he was otherwise badly injured. We sym
pathize deeply with the stricken parents ol the
unfortunate lad in their shocking and audden
bereavement.
A terrible accident happened on Satur
day at Homer Station, on the Wt P
Railroad, thirteen miles from the BiaWille
intersection. A church is in process of erec
tion there, at which a largo number of men are
employed. On Saturday alternoon a scaffold
ing which seems te have been very loosely
constructed gave way while the men were
busily at work and precipitated them all to
the ground. Fifteen of theai were injured
some of them so badly that their lives are de
spaired of. Among them were Mr. Benjamin
Pedicord and Mr. Earl, both well known Tnea
in that vicinity.

OIU VISIT TO THE FAjLUS.
To the Editor of the Camhria Freeman:
.i.TLe Fal!8 of .iaSara consist of two cataracts,
the American Fali and the Horse-Shoe Fall,
the latter to called on account of its semi
circular form. Goat Island, a picturesque and
pleasant talatid containing some seventy acres,
lies between the two falls. The Ameiican
1 all, as the reader will infer, is on the American
side of the river, and the Horse Shoe Fall on
the Canadian side. The former is much the
smaher. being on'y about GU0 feet across, while
tbe latter is some ltfUO feet across; the Amer
ican Fall, however, is 164 feet high, while the
Horse-Shoe Fall is 153 feet high.
e first saw tho falls from the American
side. The principal street of the town of Ni
agara Falla, a handsome town, by tho w ay
runs so as to lead iu one direction directly to
the lower side of the American Fal.'. A picket
fence crosses tho street at its termination, and,
entering the enclosed space, one finds himself
suddenly in the presence of the mighty cata-
raCtfTa Va8t river tearing along at a most
lcarful rate, and pluogicg over a giddy bight
amid thunder, and foam, and rising mists, and
flying rainbows.
It was early in the morning that we set forth
to view the wonderful sight; yet we found a
great many people at the edge of the precipice
in advance of us. Many too were going about
m carriages to eea the sights. The number of
men who were on hands ready to givs their
personal services and the use of their horses
and vehicles tor aid us in the laudable business
of sight-seeing, was immeuse. They weie
very readable., too : "take you both for half-a-dollar
only a quarter apiece;" but we un
derstood that ; let us in for a quarter, but
would charge five dollars to let us out again
What anybody suouJd want to ride for, in look
ing at the falls, is a mystery; manv of the
finest sights could not be seen in that "way; and
a person wants to get about iu such a rammer
that he can wander here and there and climb
around without "let or hindrance."
After viewing the falls from this point, we
crossed to the Canadian side of the river. A
short distance below is a magnificent suspen
sion bridge swung across the awful abyss at a
height ol perhaps two huudred feet. Crossing
Ibis we came upon the Canadian shore a short
distance below the celebrated Clifton House.
From a flag staff on the top of this house, we
for the first time in our lives saw the English
flag flying iu the breeze, aud felt that we had
passed ino the torritoy of that empire on
whose domains the sun never sets. In the im
mediate neighborhood of this houso, as I was
informed, was fought the battle of Lundv's
Lane, on the --.'athoi Juh , ltI4. in which Gen.
mneid Scott, then a
voting man, ercallv
distinguished himself
"Here," says the his
torian, "within sound of that mighty cataract,
occurred one ol the bloodiest battles of the
war. "
On the edge of the clitT on the Canadian side
are also two wr three "In Jiau Curiosity Stores,"
a beautiful p;uk and residence ei.c'osed by a
genuine thick set. hedge, a museum and a cage
outside where we saw two enormous black
bears, the residence among others of a valua
ble little old fellow with one eve who
cuts j
trinkets out of spar and sells them-to visitors f
at the fills, aud who told us that if when we ;
were coming back we should "want a cup of
not coliee or a warm uioal," great thunder !
and the thermometer up to a ton, in .the shade
a bath house, etc. Fiom the Canadian side
the finest view of the falls i to be had, as
here the whole scene is spread out before the
spectator. At every other point, some portion ;
of the falls is obscured.
After we had seen, as wo thought, about
everything to be teen on the Canadian side,
we desceuded the clilTby a carriago way cut
into the face of the rock, to the water's edge,
where we found a boatman just on the point of
putting off to the opposite shore. We paid our
quarter, and took seats in his craft. His ves
sel was only a large skiff propelled by a single
pair of oars, hardly, in appeirance, a suflicisnt
vessel for such a voyage. But we made the
traimit safely. The waves dashed us about
with great violence, and the spray from the
fills descended upon us like rain. We had a
stormy voyage; but landed fiually at the foot
of a stair cas6, just below the American FU.
A car runs up and down an inclined plane from
the water's edge to the top of the bank, aud
the fare is but ten cents. We preferred to
walk, however, an I fo we clambered up the
long stair case, tired enough before we reached
the top. At the top we found ourselves at the
spot w here we had first seen the falls in the
morning. ...
From here we went to Goat Islacd. This
island is private property, and as a fee of fifty
cents is charged for crossing to it, it is a source
of large income to the proprietors. Every
body who visits Niagara, gots to Goat Island.
Connected with this island by bridges arc
Luna Island, the Sisler Islands, and Terrapin
Tower. This latter is a tower of stone forty
feet high, enclosing a Fpiral stair-case by which
it is ascended, and it stands on a rock j jst ou
the edge of the lloise She Fall, tome 73 or
100 feet from tbe land. From the top of this
tower many of the finest views are to be had;
especially of the rapids and of the seething cal
tiron into which the waters of the Great Fall
are precipitated. To one who should fall into
the water here, destruction would be swift and
inevitable.
It is not possible to doscr'be Niagara Falls
so as to convey even a faint idea of their vast
ness, their magnificence, their wild beauty. 1
had read many descriptions of them, from llow
ison's.whenl was a boy, to Dickens's, since
I have been a mau; but nothing that I had
read even approximated to the reality. They
are indescribable. They, must be seen to be
appreciated; and not only -must they bo seen,
but they must be studied. The idea of their
greatness and sublimity mat grow upon one
from lingering about them from hanging over
the dizzy clills Irom tissing over their tu
multuous waves from feeling their descending
spray, illuminated with rainbows, falling like
the waters of a new baptism upon one's head.
"I think," says Dickens, "in every quiet
season now, still do those waters rolland leap,
and roar and tumble, all day long. Still are
the rainbows spanning them, a hundred feet
below. Still, when the sun is ou them, do
they shine and glow like molten gold. Still
when the day is gloomy, do they fall like snow,
or seem to crumble away like the front of a
great chalk cliff, or roll down the rocks like
dense white smoke. But always docs the
mighty stream appear to die as it comes down,
and always from its unfathomable grave arrises
thnt tremendous ghost of spray and mist,
which ia never laid which has haunted this
place with the same dread solemnity since
Darkne8 brooded on tho deep, and that first
flood before the deluge Light came rushing
on creation at the word of God."
Very Truly Yours, T. J. Ciiafuan.
A Few Convincing Facts. That lightning
rods are a sure protection against the ravages
of that subtle fluid is as much an accepted and
indisputable fact as that the Munson Copper
Tubular Lightning Rod is the very best that
is known to the people of this country. No
better evidence of these truisms could be given
or need be given than thnt so many people are
having them erected on their dwellings and
barns, and that Messrs. Joues & King, agents
for the Munson Rod, are kept constantly era
ployed in putting up these unsurpassablo safe
guards against lightniug. They have already
rodded some two hundred buildings this season
and their summer's work is scarcely more than
half accomplished. These are facts that need
no comweut, for they are certainly forcible
enough to convince all property holders of the
great importance of having lightning rods on
their buildings, and, above all, the paramount
imcortance of getting only the best, which is
unquestionably the celebrated Munson rod.
Hence we say let Messrs. Joues &. King ba the
men of poor choice. Their work is perfect.
Cohen Iveeps Them at his Cheap Hat Parlor.
T say Cohen keeps them. Yes he does! I saw
'em. Cohen does that. Cohen does. Cheap,

Johnstown-, Aug-. 1871.
Dear Freeman A man named Thos. McDride,
an employe of the Cambria Iron Company, was
instantly killed about 7 o'clock ou Saturday
tnorninjr last. He was enprnjrort nt tending the
fire tt the Klope in one of the mines. It was
dark and he was old and somewhat deaf, and
the ears, descending, struck and killed him. He
was a resident of Woodvale, aud was between
sixty and seventy years of ege. Coroner Har
rold held an inquest.
Tho United Presbyterian Church is t.uilaing
a house of worship in Johnstown, nearly oppo
site the dwelling of F. V. llav, Ksq. The church
is 00 by 40 feet uud built of brick- Tbe question
arises. Who are the Uuited l'resbyterians 't
Well, they nn the Covenanters, fecodcrs, and
the Aseociote Reformers, united. And who were
they? They were all scceders from tho Scotch
Presbyterians, who were scceders from the
Kpiseopuliann, who seceded from the Catholics,
who seceded from Martin Lvth:r about the time
of Josrphus, A. D. 40. As this was so recently
proved in your paper, 1 need not repeat tho ar
gument, but content inygelf by merely saying,

The Johnstown schools did not open on last

There is progress and improvement all around

there is the want of water. People tiro sinking
wells fifty feet or more to get water. There

Terrible Affair. One day last week a son
of Henry Snyder, of Tyrone, while on a visit to
his grandfather, lit lk-llcfoute, went with a
youthful ccmpaniou to a neighboring wood.
Hero was a cabin, occupied occasionally by a
manufacturer of a.V handles. The boys after
playing around for awhile came to the conclu
sion to fire the shavings which lay iu front of
tho door, without any idea of. the serious results
which were to follow. No sooner enid thau
done, and in another moment The shavings
w ere a mws of flames, enveloping tho cabin on
all sides. The horrible part of the affair is that
young Snyder, who was inside the cabin door
when The match was applied, was unable to
make his eseap?. Imprisoned by a wall of fire
he perished with the cabin. This is another ter
rilde warning to boys who arc in the habit of
playing with matches, but is not likely to be
h reeled. Hun ia. j.-l ury Standard.
