Davis, who is a married man aud the father of two or three children, acknowledges, it is said, the soft impeachment. One day last week, says the Holiidays burg .Mrt.xiiri, an Altoona policeman started out to arrest a woman named Lantz, charged with selling liijuor contrary to law. He found her in bed, with a revolver under her pillow, and a voting baby by her side. He ! didn't arrest her. Later iu the day D. C. ! Fhrhart had a warrant issued for her arrest on the charge of procuring goods utuler false I pretenses. This time the officer didn't get I into the room at all, a number of females I meeting him on the stairs ami declaring so positively that Mrs. Lantz was iu a very critical condition that he left at once. There are some who say the woman is only sham ming, and that the baby belongs to her daughter. A couple of sneak thieves entered the granary of Mr. John Lomeraux, in Klaek liek township, at a late hour on Thursday night of last week, aud gobbled up a lot of bacon belonging to that gentleman. The scoundrels were tracked on the following morning from the granary in quest ion across the IJlaeklick, into Jackson township, aud direct to a tenant house on the farm of Geo. Shearer; and as the occupants thereof are well known and the evidence against them of a very positive character, this is to notify them that if they do not pay for the stolen meat withiu a reasonable time they may expect to get iuto trouble. The account given by ns last week in reference to a hundred bushels of corn hav ing been stolon from a man named Helel, in Allegheny township, and the alleged cutting and poisouing of a horse belonging to the same gentleman, is very generally be lieved in that neighborhood to be a lie made out of the whole cloth. Parties with w hom we have conversed, aud who have had the very liest opportunities for knowing, declare that there could not possibly have been that amount of corn in Mr. Hels-l'scrib after the recent taking away of fifty-eight bushels sold by him, and that so far as the horse was concerned, it was old and decrepid and had been ailing for some time past, and instead of dying from the effects of poii-on its death was due sole'.y to natural causes. This much for the credit of Allegheny township. A fatal accident occurred at the Maple ton intersection with the Tyrone & Clear field Kail road a few mornings ago. Comluc- tor ICinkade's train was just getting under way, when George Hoover, a iiagman, iu attempting to get on one of t lie cars, slipped, ami t lie force of the fall, in the sleety con dition of the track, carried him uuder the moving train, with his hips resting on tlci rail. In this condition four of the heavily laden freight cars passed over him, sever ing his legs from his liody. In the fall he broke his arm, which rendered it imposible for him toassisl himself, or perhaps he could have golteii from under the. cars, as they were moving slowly at the time. He was then taken to Philipuburg, on the gravel train, where he died shortly after. He leaves a wife aud four children at Philips burg. IVingle hollow, in Jackson township, has never iu ail its experience witnessed stu b a high old time as rome of our citizens, who are there keeping bachelors' hall and getting out timlier, inaugurated not many evenings ago. From four o'clock in the af ternoon until five o'clock next morning a cotene of tiddlers "rosined their bows" and "sawed olf" the liveliest airs, to the merry sounds of which lads and lassies almost in numerable "tripped the light fantastic toe" with a spirit aud zest that did ample credit to their pedal extremities. The midnight supper, which consisted of all the luxuries and substantial that liberal hands could supply, was gotten up by Miss Leidv and Mis Kelly, and is said to have been a feast which even a prince might hare envied. All in all, it was a most enjoyable parfv such, indeed, 'as an old residenter v.ilh fifty years' experience iu the vicinity was heard to remark has never been equalled, much less surpassed, in all that classic region. F-very thing passed off creditably. A xranEK of the surviving veterans of the Mexican War assembled at Washington ve.stenlar for the purpose, ef witnessing the unveiling of a statue of Gen.

I like that discussion that is going on iu your paper in regard to Common Schools, and while 1 believe that there is not. any more original sin now than there was before the adoption of the system, still it w ill do no harm to ventilate it and give it an airing. The'mma'.s of the schools are lietter than the administration of them. There have beeu j some ludicrous w hims and foibles introd need S system of 1 popular education in Pennsylvania. For j instance, an ex-State Superintendent issued j an edict requiring teachers to mark absence J and leave attendance blank in their rolls a j thing that was never done from Adam down j to the Cambria Iron Works until that edict j w as promulgated. Awl now comes another from the present Stale Superintendent. This is new method of counting per cent., by which the attendance iu the State can be misrepresented at least thirty percent. This edict requires teachers to reckon the percent, of all new pupils only from the time they en ter school. 1 had a case in point the other day. Two boys left Johnstown schools after ; a half-month's or fifty per cent, attendance, i ineir moiiier Having moveil into woouvaie. They attended that school eleven days, or the balance of the month. According to the new regulation, being new pupils to me, I would be obliged to allow them one hundred per cent., and as they made tifty per cent. In-fore iu Johnstown, they would each make one hundred and tifty per cent, for that mouth, w hich would be absurd and impossi ble. So you will see that other departments in the system, including normal schools, need to be veutilated. "I'di ilis ileceiuius Are rin," etc. AUOUT THE IsEW CONSTITUTION. My ideas about the new constitution are that the State didn't need a new eonstitir.iou half so badly as the people did. I have some one hundred and fifty thousand people iu my mind's eye (must be a large eye) who need good, honest constitutions individual ly. If these were secured the State Could get aloug without one it could live on the by-laws. People that would lie, and steal, and cheat, and swindle under the old consti tution can do the same under the new. lle form must commence in the hearts of the people. "That's what's the matter" now. ABOUT THE DISTRICT COUliT. AVithout any reflections on our law judges, who are as honest as the day's long, there was more law than juxtive dispensed at the late sit tings of the Johnstown District Cotirt. Juries are not always what they are cracked np to be. And tlien this thing of swearing them to render a true verdict"according to the evidence, and then starving them until they agree, is not only a humbug, but a xjt ent couscieuve st'fl-r. Why not put women ou the juries people who can agree? Then look at the cost piled ou the tax-payeis by trying trifling cases two or three times be cause juries cannot all think alike. A jury trial is well enough, hue the majority should rule. "What does the new constitution sav about that? Abb AliOUT THE PANIC. If the people would hang all the Wall Street brokers and all the bankers who send other people's money there to speculate on, 1 think it would be cujitul pll)ii.Iiii"'-'t(. In his message Guv. Hartianft strikes the nail right ou the head iu regard to brokers and bankers, which makes mrt think that he is a.- good a Democrat as G rant is a Republi can. There is no punishment too severe for the rascals who would take the one dollar deposits of poor men, women and children for the purposes of speculation. As the Hinglishuiau says, "Give 'em '1 !" And it is still worse when it is spent for election eering purposes. Let him that r;noie,7 read. ALL AltOUT THE WEATHER. The potato bug was bad enough, and I would advise those w ho plant potatoes next spring to plan iu new ground. Put there is a greater bug than the potato hug. It is the Aum-bug weather signals. Their faliing ba rometers and risilig barometers are delusions. Not so with I.enfoii & Tittle's hardware es tablishment iu Johnstown. Four warehouses and one immense store-room filed with arti cles that farmers, mechanics and house wives well know the iise of wagon wood wolk, plows, iron, nails, corn--helIers, reapers, cut lery, willow ware, etc... and so forth, whole sale aud retail, ten percent, below 1 he prices of other dealers.
