I.ocul Correspondence.

Deab Fbefman I take my pen in hand
to let you know that I am not well, and,I
hope these few lines may find you enjoying
the same blessed state of health.
THE BUPPES DRAIN.
Mr. Conrad Suppes is determined that his
new hotel shall not lack for sanitary regula
tions ; consequently be has caused a largo
subterranean drain to be made from the ho
tel on Cliuton street down Levergood street
to the river, a distance of forty rods or more.
This drain will be a great drain on Mr. S.'a
pocket-book, but will be of incalculable ad
vantage. fatton'i ehop.
Workmen are cow engaged putting the
weather-boarding on tbe large chair shop of
Wm. P. Pattou. It will take over eight
thousand feet of wrought boards to put the
shop through, but the Major is flourishing
like a green bay tree and does not regard
expense.
DlBEKTrS NEW BANK.
We have not often seen a more cosy bank
ing house than the one that John Dibert &
Co. have moved into, on Main street, No.
240. It is perfectly hew, as clean as a pin,
heated by beaters, "and has very large show
windows and double doors. The doors,
washboards and furniture are beautifully
grained and all one color. The counter and
desks are handsome' articles of furniture.
Hydrant water and gas complete the elegant
arrangements, and we are free to say ii is
the nicest banking houae in Western Penna.
W. I. A.
We feel grateful to W. L. A. for his sym
pathy and words cf consolation, which were
given in kinduess.and feel somewhat abashed
at having been overcome, but the calamity
was so appalling that we couldn't help it
We have a heart that can feel ; so much so
indeed that we have ceased to read the sick
ening details of the late disasters, for they
are too much for flesh to endure. The fruits
of the earth are truly abundant, but to the
poor they are but what the fruits and the
water were to Tantalus.
WINTER.
Now that winter is coming on, let every
one prepare his family for the northern gale,
and when he has done eo let him not neglect
the poor. "lie that giveth to the poor lend
eth to the Lord." There are pocr in every
community, and we are among those who
believe that a man never loses anythiug by
being kind to the poor. Blessings will fol
low. We Shall never forget the story of the
poor newsboy, who, when crushed beneath
the cars early in the morning, said, as ho was
dying, "Mother, I only sold three papers.
You will find the money in my pocket. It
will get you one loaf of bread." These tad
words touched the hearts of tbe by-sUnders
so much that they immediately raised a col
lection and made that mother comfortable,
before the eyes of the litllo newsboy wre
closed in death. The contributors never re
gretted what they had done, and never will.
ELIAS HOWE.
Mr. A. S. Wagstaff, the agent here for the
celebrated Elias Ilovre Medallion Sewing
Machine, No. J 20 Clinton strett, took us
into Ids office on Saturday, and, being a me
chanic himself, he took his machiue apart
and &howed us how one thread crosses the
other in forming tbo lock 6titch something
wo never understood before. He then open
ed up some other machines, and we were
really astonished at the simplicity of the
Eli .s Howe machina as compared with the
ot hersj. Tlicy wero exceedingly complicated,
w hile his is exceedingly simple, and as strong
as it is simple. Wc took some notes at the
time, but we are not mechanic enough to de
scribe the machine. The feed, the shuttle,
tho press bar, tho knuckle j int. the treadle,
the hinges to open and close and oil the ma
chine, the tension, and indetd every thing,
is so simplified, yet bo strong, and so well
protected from dust, that any person who
tees ouo opened must admire the machine.
FINE BCTXDINGS.
The buildings that have lately been put
up in Johustown are cf a better class thau
those formerly erected. The ceilings are
much higher, largo glas3 panes decorate the
windows, and inside shades are put up in
stead of outside shutters. Even houses that
are built for renting purposes are put up in
the most modern style. But then tho land
lord tariffs the tenant.
TEACIIER3 INSTITUTE.
We have beard no objection made to hold
ing this Institute in Ebensburg. It is a cen
tral locality. But there are objections urged
to the time. Some at least waut it held be
tween the holidays, as they will lose that time
at any rate. As we are not going, we have
nothing to say, but we think the will of the
majority, whatever that may be, should de
cide the matter.
TITAT SPOT.
The originator of the item published in
your last about the pear-shaped spot on the
sun did not understand whereof he wrote, or
else the figures bave since got sadly mixed.
There may have been a spot on the sun of
the size mentioned when the item was writ
ten, but it is hardly there now. We object
at any rate : "
1st. To the assortion that 40,000 miles is
equivalent to three-quarters of a minute of
ate ;
2d. To tine assertion that the subtended
angle is Z inches one mile from the eye ;
8d. To smoking a glass to see it at this
late date.
The first assertion is erroneons. Radius
is ninety-five millions miles. Diameter is
one hundred and ninety millions. Circum
ference ia six hundred and thirty millions.
Hence three-quarters of a minute of arc ia
not quite 22,000 miles. And this is too
much, for the earth is now in perihelion, or
the sun is nearest the earth. So much for
en or No. 1.
Statement: As 360 degrees nr 21.C0O
minutes is to one minute, bo is 630.000,000
miles to 29.000 miles. If one roinuto is 29,
000 miles, three-fourths of a minute is 21,
C00 miles.
The second assertion is erroneous. Be
cause, if the divergnnce in one mile, or 63,
300 inches, is Z inches. In 95.000.000 miles
the divergance would be 95,000.000 multi
plied by 3, equal to 356.250,000 inches, or
6,622 miles only. And as radius vector is
now nearly the shortest, owing- to the earth
being in perihelion, tbe angle would have to
be larger, as tbe spot is nearer to tbe eye by
several millions of miles.
The smofeing of a glass to see tb"i3 spot is
useless now. For a spot may be 40.000
miles in diameter one day and the next day
it may be entirely dissolved. Besides, the
sun revolves on Its axis in twenty-five days.
If the spot was near its centre when seen,
in fix davs it would pass to the right hand
to the edge of the sun's disc, and be outof
sight. The sun is nearly 3,000.000 miles in
circumference. One half of this is disc, and
40,000 miW would only be about one thirty-
seventh part of the disc, and could barely
bo seen with the naked eye if it were there.
Let the Teachers' Institute attend to this.
So mote it be.
A CASE OP VARIOLOID.
A bov named Johnston took varioloid at
the Cenford House on rruiay last, anu air,
Benford, the proprietor, had him at onoe re
moved to the fair grounds. Having urss got
tho consent of two of the owners of tbia
Tark. We now understand that other pro
prietors consider this matter in another light,
as calculated to injuro the propperity and
prospects of the Highland Agricultural As
sociation. But we view the movement as
the first step towards the establishment of a
hospital in this place, and as an act worthy
of all praise. Mr. B. sent a nurse along
with the boy, and a wagon load of furniture,
including a stove, a bed, fuel, and other ne
cessaries. He acted promptly, as all land
lords must, and he ought to bave the thanks
of the entire community. In a mixed pop
ulation like ours a hospital may be needed
before Spring. When the disease abates this
small building could be burned, and thus
no injury would result to the fair grounds
We hope all the patients fflicted with that
disease and there are only four yet may
be sent to the same place. We admire the
original thought and prompt action of Mr.
Benford, and trust that there will be no op
position to the measure.
OTIIEU MATTERS.
At a railroad to Somerset meeting held on
Saturday it was resolved to complete the
subscriptions by to morrow CThursday) and
go to work surveying and lettiug the" road.
This looks like business.
Oacar Graffo has built a large ten pin al
ley, which adjoins his hotel in Sharpsburg.
The building is about one hundred feet long,
and will be a splendid place for the b'hoys
during the cold and dreary winter.
I sincerely hope you are over the quinsy.
If you dou't soon get rid of that troublesome
disease you should get t'fx-e-nated.
We had some roaches in our house, and
wo posted over to C. T. Frazer and got a
bottle of Logan's Insect Powder, which sent
them scattering in all directions, v If any of
your readers are similarly troubled, let them
go or eend to C. T. Frazer, druggist, Johns
town, and get a 25 cent bottle, and if it does
not cure the roaches, and kill them too. then

Celebration of First Mass. Last Sun
day was a pleasant, and to a great many in
this city, a very interesting day. John .
Staub who had been absent for several years
attending educational and theological insti
tutions, and having received holy orders,
had just returned , and would celebrate Mass
for the first time in St. Joseph's Church of
this city. To his acquaintances, and to
thofea with whom his young life had Leon
spent, this was an interesting occasion, and
they desired to show their joy at his success
and promotion, and their confidence in his
ability and uprightness of life. A beautiful
procession was formed, composed of the pu
pils attending the parochial school connected
with St. Joseph's Church; St. Peter's Be
nevolent Society, headed by Braddock's Brass
Baud, and St. Joseph's and St. Georges
Benevolent Societies, accompanied by the
Silver Cornet Band. These societies were in
full regalia, accompanied with gorgeous ban
ners. They made a very beautiful display.
This procession in a very appropriate man
ner escorted the young llevereud with a
number of Rev. Fathers from the parsonage
to the church, and after Mass had been cc-le-i
brated escorted them back to tbe parsouage
in the same beautiful mauuer. Everything
passed off in a highly creditable and delight
ful way.
The beautiful cdremonips of the day speak
well for all those engaged in them, as well
an for the encouragement it could give to
the talented young priest, who has thus sol
emnly devoted his life to the cause of religion.
We understand that Rev. Staub will be
connected with the Pastoral charge of St;
Augustine's Church at Pittsburgh. Jvhns

Killed by a Log. On Fiiday morning
of last weik Mr. John Kennedy, of Washn
ington township, this county, came to a vi
olent death under the following painful cir
cumstances: With the aid of his son, a lad
of fourteen years, be was endeavoring to
build a log fence, and while assisting a yoke
of ixen to roll a heavy log against a hill,
the weight overpowered Lim.and a crowbar
which he was using at the time struck him
on the leg, prostrating him to the ground
and inflicting a very severe wound, which
doubtless prevented his escape from the log,
which rolled over his body and rested on his
r.eck, producing death almost immediately.
His little boy ran to the house of a neighbor
to give the alarm, and parties at once re
paired to the scene cf the accident, only,
however, to find the lifeless remains of the
unfortunate man in the position we have
stated. Mr. Kennedy was a widower, about
60 years of age, and tbe father of two small
children, a boy and girl, with whom alone
he kept house. He was a quiet, inoffensive
3nd stiictly honest man, and his sudden
and melancholy death is a source of deop
regret to all who knew him. His remains
were interred in the Catholic graveyard at
Wilmore on Sunday.
The lifeless body of a German "tramp,"
with tbe head terribly beaten and lacerated,
was found on tbo pike between Bedford and
Bloody Kun. oa Thursday morning of last
week, and there is no doubt that he was
murdered and then robbed, as his pockets
were cut out and the contents of the bundle
be carried scattered in all directions. The
deed was committed with a pioce of fence
rail. Papers found on tbe body indicated
the name of the murdered man to be W. A.
Weis Several parties have been arrested
on suspicion, but only oue, a negro, is now
in custody awaiting examination. This is
.the second mtrder that has occurred in Bed
ford county within a few days.
With the approbation of Father Christy,
several young men of the congregation are
now erecting a large hall near the Catholic
church for the purpose of holding therein
such social entertainments as may bedeamcd
innocent and enjoyable, and alao with a view
to leasing it to traveling exhibitions cf an un
objectionable character. The dimensions of
the hall are 75 by 25 feet, and it will be fit
ted up in good style and will be ready for
the purposes it is intended some time this
month.
SbrioL'SLT Injured. Mr. Jacob Z. Nagle,
residing near Loretto Springs, Allegheny
township, waa on Wednesday last thrown
from his horse and afterwards kicked on the
head by the animal, producing Injuries of a
very serious character. Dr. Plank, of the
firm of Lemmon & Plank, of this place, who
was summoned to his aid and dressed bis
wounds, assures us that he is badly injured
aod will bave a very narrow escape if he
survives. -
Thk season for coughs and colds is rapid
ly approaching, and every one should be
prepared to check the first symptoms, as a
cough contracted between now and Christ
mas frequently lasts all winter, There is no
better remedy than tlJoh,7ison's Anodyne
Liniment." For all diseases of the throat
and lungs, it should be used internally and
externally.

Morb-Vabmints." It appears that tbe
inhabitants of the northern corner of Brady
township have been greatly annoyed, during
the summt r and fall, by members of the
Wolf family, who were in the daily habit of
feasting on mutton. This was very evident
from the number of bheep slaughtered in
that neighborhood. Last week, however,
an old woodbman, Samuel Troy, learning the
walks of Mr. Wolf, laid for him, and having
set some traps, was no little turprised on
looking to them a few days after to find that
he had secured two full grown pesky wolves,
which ho 6oen dispatched, disrobed and

Eusinessi. No business man in this commu
nity does business in a more business way than
does Geo. Huntley, who is nlwa3's up to his ryes
in the stove, .hard ware, tinware and notion bus
iness at hie well known business stand on High
street. It is none of our business where you do
vour shopping business, but if you find a man
in that business more worthy of your custom
than George is, we -vill willingly admit that we
don't know what business is. Try Huntley the
dext time business prompts you.

Qt:eenstown, Ireland, Oct. IS, 1S71.
Dear Mac Here I am, alive and well, after
my voyage across the "pig- pond." On the
evening of the 2oth September we steamed out
ot New lork. aud in a few hours after found
ourselves on the broad bosom of the deep At
lantic. None, unless those who have experi
enctd it, can have any idea of t he sensation opo
tools as be stands on deck and catches the last
glimpse of tho receding land, while the good
ship ploughs with gsaut strides through the
ocean iurrows; pcrhups to be tossed about on
tempestuous billows before hind is sighted
again. The evening welclt ii.inre in good
spirits some prophesying alut the w cut her
more discussing the probable number that
would be sea-sick others airain arguing, almost
betting, as to the length of the vovage. Hut,
sir, the thud day saw two-thirds of "the pa-eu-gers
prostrated with sea-sickness. Never hav
ing experienced what it is like, I can't say much
about this disease, but judging from thedcuth
like paleness visible on every face, I should
If,'! nt be dreadful. V, hile it lasts I am
told it is the severest of sickness, but when it
U o er people feel better than they did before
the attack. On the firth day nearly all were as
epngntlyaseyer. Judging from the celerity
ot knives, forks and riu.uths of those that were
sick, I certainly must say they lost nothing in
the way of appetite.
We bad on board tho shrewd calculating fi
nancier, the professsional prating politician,
the sanctimonious, methodical, white-ohoktr-ed
little parson in fact wo had theextremcsof
presented11'1 political ofiniou pretty well re-
On the sixth day we saw some of "Mother
Carey s chickens," tho sore forerunners of a
storm, a he same night dark ominous clouds
hung over ux, the sea looked angrv, the captain
gave orders to his men to "trim'' the ship and
to take iu all the sails. The older was not
given too soon, for hurricanc-llko a sweeping,
leveling gale swept over us, threatening to
bury us iu the awful deep. Fear was depicted
oc every countenance. Those whose lips per
haps lor months, or years, did notutiera
prayer, new in the hour of danger appealed to
heaven for aid. It was a trying time, for there
we were, hundreds of miles away from land,
at Vie mercies of wind and waves, not knowing
the moment we would keel over. The next
lnorning dawned with thestorm a littleabuted,
but still tho sk- wore the same scowling,
threatening, defiant aspect. A look through
the window showed us the wild raging god as
he strode the sea in ail his awful, majeaiic, fu
rious grandeur. The mountain billows, as thi y
aurged and foamed aud dashed like tnluhty
war-horses against the very clouds, and then
again came rolling and tumbling back like
huge avelanches, beariag destruction in their
path, were a sight so terrifyingly grand -that
one forgot the danger in the stupendous gran
dour ot the scene. Some time during the af
ternoon the elements calmed considerably, aud
by night our good ship was under full sail
again, cutting through the now settled sea.
Ine eighth day found us a!l chatting about the
lute storm and congratulating ourselves on not
being by this time swallowed up in the shark's
mighty maw.
tin the ninth day every face wore an anxious
look, every eye was strained looking for tome
distant object, every tongue was busy discuss
ing the probable time in which that long wished
for object, l.AM). would appear in view.
The weary, dying traveller on the great Sa
hara desert longs and sighs for a drop of water
to cool his parched Hps the lover looks Jor
ward with feelings of rapturous delight to the
happy momcjT when he Fhall meet the absent
object of his all'eetion the wenrv, senrred sol
dier of a hundred battles longs "for the peace
that will bring iTlm rest but, sir, the feelings
of all put together are only as the flicker of a
gus jet to the noon-day eun compared with the
feelings of a persou ou ship-hoard when he
catches, after a perilous ;voyage of ten days,
th hrst sight oflhind.
On the morning of the tenth day we could
seesLf;i'iy in the dim distance which wc were
told were the Kerry Heads. As the niornimr's
mist cleared away and the sun shone out, we
could see distinctly the green hills of dear old
Ireland. Nearer and nearer we came, till at
hist wo fouud ourselves cutciir.g Qucenstown
harbor.
After tho usual examination of "perronnl
property," all those who had been booked for
Ireland came ashore. Need I shv that your
correspondent was one of them. When I found
mysrjf i:uct nr.re on ftr:ii frum 1 felt as if 1
could 4iy, for here I was, after an absf nee of
many years, coming to visit the- dear land of
my b'rth to sec again the mountains and bills,
the Sircamlets and rills with which all my joy
ous boyhood recollections are so pleasingly as
sociated ; for though an American by adoption,
still I am none the less an Irishman.
For tho present I will not attempt a descrip
tion of Qunenstown. In mv next I will essay
mpn. juiini; i:iy siay in luecouiiiry j win
send you au occasional lettor descriptive of the
different places of interest I propose to visit
ick. Kind regards to all the Johnstown folks.
Yours, dear Mac, truly, EiUONAOi.
