The deceased wad a young, unmarried man,

The Johnstown fletnorrat says that some
difficulty and considerable excitement has
arisen among a portion of the German popu

t ion of a boy from the Parochial School of
the German Lutheran Kvar.gelical Church, in
the Third Ward of that liorough. A hearing
In regar-I to the matter was had before Esq.

While coming to town, on Monday last,
our friend Jos. W. I'ringle, of Croyle town

of Mr John McBride, in Cambria township,

A mammoth steer the largest probably
ever butchered in 'EVnsbirrg, netting 1,104
lbs. of clean meat was reduced to steaks,
roasts, etc., one day last week and partially
old at D. H. Zabm's meat market, on Cen
tre street, the balance being disposed of to
the numerous customers of that gentleman
in various parts of the county. And this
was neither the beginning nor the end of
Mr. Zabm's efforts in that direction, for he
has fully made up his mind to kill not only
the fattest and best cnttle that can be
nought, but is determined to sell beef, as he
ays In his card, at bottom prices, thus af
fording to the community the choicest meats
at. the loweet. possible figures. Doa't forget
Dan on market days.
The lifeless remains of Ernest Plack, son
of Mr. Louis Plack, a well known and much
esteemed citizen of Altoona, and a valued
patron of the Fkeeman, were found on
Saturday morning last near an old stone
quarry on Cemetery Hill, a short distance
northeast of that city, with a bullet hole
through Ids heart. The first impressions
Were that he had been enticed to that lonely
pot auil murdered for his watch and money,
but It appearing at the coroner's inqnest that
a'l bis valuable had been left at home, and
that some boys, one of whom first made the
discovery, had picked up a pistol near the
body, the verdict of the jury waa-jhat de
ceased had come to bis death by a shot fired
from his own pistol in the hands of some
person to the jury unknown. Young Plack
was aged alnint 18 years and lore an excel
lent character. lie was a nephew of James
M. Singeir. Esq., of this place, his mother
and Mis. Singer being sisters.
Mr. Eugene Bernard Therp, a gentleman
who is almost if not entirely blind, gave two
entertainments in this place on Saturday and
Monday evenings cotisitdin, of vocal mu
eicaud select recitations the last of which
was well attended and lioth of which gave
infinite pleasure to all who heard them.
Mr. Thorp is possessed of a well cultivated
tenor voice of great power ami richness, and
sings with a pathos and sweetness that is
quite captivating. In recitation he claims
to 1e nothing tuore than an amateur, but
nevertheless bis selections are very choice
and his rendition of them far from being
commonplace. We heartily commend Mr.
Thorpe to the patronage of the public, not
only liecausii he deserves to be patronised on
account of his misfortune which, by the
way. liefell him while a student at St. Fran
cis' College, Loretto, caused by a severe cold
contracted through indiscretion on his part
in changing his clothing but because his
entertainments are really worth much more
than the paltry sum of ten cents charged as
admission fee.

There were no less than twelve convict
sentenced in Blair county, on Saturday last,
to the Western Penitentiary. Following is
a class! fledjiat of the victims Trtolicrt Walls,
James Douglass, and Samson Walls, each a
fine of 550, the costs of prosecution, and
each toserve three years in'Alregheny. These
individuals were convicted of perjury, in
connection with the -scalp-manufacturing
business. James Findley, for the same of
fense, was fined S.'iO, but owing to the fact
that he is in ill health, only one year and six
months was awarded him.- Solomon Walla,
Clarence Merretz and Louis Walls were also
tiying their hands at making "crooked"
fcalps and swearing falsely, but as they ere
mere lioys they got but, a fine of $10 and six
months imprisonment in the county jail.
William Gorsu'.-h, another boy, convicted
of perjury, was fined 820 and pent to the
Penitentiary one year. Uenry flench, for
embezzlement, was fined 'SPO and also goes
for one year; while James Kelly, William
Powers, John Hughes and John King, for
burglary, were each fined S,ri0, and they will
serve two years respectively in Allegheny.
Her ry Taylor stole an overcoat ; and a fine
of $10, with one year over the river, was his
portion. Archy Trease, for the larceny of
brass, etc., was fined an aggregate of $100
and sent to the Penitentiary two years.
This is certainly a bad showing for Blair

Crazed in a 'Revival. A correspond
ent of the N. Y. Sun, writing from Black
lick, Indiana county, Pa., under date of
April 27th, tolls the followingstrange story:
Thirty years sgro William FHtr. a prominent
citizen living near this yllinfre, attended a re
vival roeetiiir then beinir held here in the man
ner of the Primitive Methodists. He became a
rcliirious enthusiast, and. irnnrintnir that he hnd
committed "the unpardonable sin," lost his
reason. He passed his entice time in prayinir
and singing- He believed his wife and family
prevented bis ohtainintrparrion for his sins, and
became so violent toward them that It whs
found necessary to place kirn under restraint.
A room was lifted up with stout oaken burs at
the doors aud windows, and he wus imprisoned
therein.
The skill of the best physicians has failed to
restore his mind, aud he has remained In con
finement since 1;45. His cell is as comfortable
n It can be made, end he has every attention.
For thirty years he has occupied every hour in
tbe day with lamcntstiou over his lost soul, in
piteous appeals to God for pardon, and in sing
in revival hymns unknown to the church
goers or to-dsy. By paclnir up and down tbe
floor of his room, and ty constant kneeling In
particular spots, he has worn R-reat hollows In
the boards, which It has been necessary to re
new several times.
The unfortunate man la over eighty years of
ago. He is tall and apparently in the best of
physical health. His hir and heard are or
extraordinary length. He keeps his person
and apartment neat and clean, but allows no
one to approach bim. He will not engage In
conversation, bis whole attcntiou be inn Riven
to his ibcesant devotions.
Catarrh is a common disease, so com
mon that Knurling, spitting, and blowing of
the nose, meet us at every turn on the street.
Your foot slips in these nasty discharges on
he sidewalk and in tbe public conveyance ;
and its disagreeable odor, contaminating the
breath of the afflicted, renders them offen
sive to their associates. There is the highest
medical authority for stating that with fully
one-half, if not two-thirds, of those afflicted
with Consumption ol tho Lungs, the disease
commences as Catarrh in the nose or head,
the next step being to the throat and bron
chial tubes lastly to the lungs. How im
portant then to give early and prompt at
tention to a Catarrh I To cure this loathsome
disease correct the system by using Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, which
tones it np, cleanses the blood, and healsthe
diseased glands by a specific influence upon
them ; and to assist, use Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy with Dr. Pierce's Nasal Douche.
This is the only way to reach the upper and
back cavities where the discbarge comes
frem. No danger from this treatment, and
It is pleasant to nse. The two medicines
with. instrument are sold by dealers in med
icines. a-
Rome midnight marauder, on plunder
no doubt intent, effected an entrance through
one of the windows of Mr. James M. Singer's
residence, in this place, about two o'clock
on Sunday morning last, but the noise or his
movements aroused the inmates of the house,
and Mr. Singer descended the stairs, fully
armed and equipped, just in time to find the
front door standing wide open and his noc
turnal visitor making tapid strides down the
street. As Mr. S. is said to have had some
fifty or sixty dollars in his wallet, which he
left in one of the pockets of his pantaloons
down stairs, it is quite probable that if the
would-be thief had not been so S(on dis

I Tun-gent Epistle from Jtob Royt
CRCS8SY Statiow, Merced Co., Ctl.
Ma. Editor
Liear Sir:
. April i, U'.t.
As I have not a particle
Of anything- to dt,
, I'll write a right long article
' And write It right to you.
' - i n. i . ,
The printers may object to this
Hut, prythe. what of that ? ' -
They sorely know tbe matter Is
, Emphatically fat...
' ill.'
I row am living In a state
Of nature, iso tht-y say ; '
Ahl Sin has been at work of late,
Aud G race has iforre away.
j 1T . : . .
Joeqnln Miller Is our bard,
- Hence I'm detrred of song ;
He sells his stanzas by the yard,
. Iiocause the feet are wrong.
. v.
' And though a Mifler-lte In fact,
Yet I am free to y
He does, by neither look or set, ,
Expect a judgment day. '
- VI.
Poets can always flourish here, .
Iteoause t he wind is liah, ' 1
And like thm, tiaysand months appear
For they arealway dry.
VII.
This State la very rich. I'm told.
In metals, rich and fine
Each county hus a mice of gold.
Though I can't call it mine.
vi it
Fortunes come and fortunes go.
And none can tell ns why.
And men will often ro so slow
That they get on a high. .
IX.
ITere one teetotaler (rot rife
Heeause of legal teiifier. '
He went and married a sweet wife
And then got on a Bender.
X.
Another at Yosemite, -
Though never known to fall.
Spent ell -a sad ealnmlty
To see tbe Ui Ulttl Veil.
VI.
A land of milk snd honey, too;
Cows sklni the pastures free;
One can huve bees tbe seuson through.
And one can let them bee.
XII.
Almonds will grow on every stem.
And a good reason wliy ;
Tbe-neathen Chinee nertures them
Tbcy have an slinond tyel
XIII.
A thousand acres mske a ranch
Ten thousand ll may be :
And farming I in every brano'',,
A harrowing sight to see.
xiv. '
With streams as cool as one could with.
Yet we arc warm and dry :
For, though Innre fishes we could flsh.
We've other tUu to fry.
xv.
Shepherds, with sheepish look abound.
Though la'nblike In their way;
They fleece I he sheep and tleece the ground.
Then givo a crook, for pay.
XVI.
Rut seldom unow snd frost appear.
And storms do seldom rage;
Tetil have seen a frost out here
They called "The frest of ago."
XVII,
Valley and hill with vlnesebound,
And irrnpea In clusters shin,
And run down men are often found.
For thty unwind with wine.
XVIII.
IIMcIt stills here do no harrm
But crooked whiskey can ;
And stills are still a sod-ot warm
For each unstiiiborn man.
Xix.
The Insects here are very bad.
For if a man Is dry,
A drink of water can't be had.
Unless ha lakes a fly
XX.
The Legislature of the State
Meet every other year?
They wsit and meet, and meet and wait,
Though not much weight is bets.
XXI.
Much like the Congress of our land.
They meet for woo or weal :
And while they rule with irou band.
They are as true as steal.
XXII.J
A web of railroads fill the land, .
And some men travel free;
And when they snar j with sleight of hand.
Net profits it win be.
XXIII.
The owners are all pious men ;
This is the prayer they say :
"Grunt us this subsidy, and then
We will forever prey."
xxiv.
The printers are a greedy troup.
And every one can lye ;
If they are not In oyster soup,
You'll find them making pi.
XXT.
Vast plains of sand abound, and sun
And sky dry up the land ;
Our sands of lire will always run.
For life is made of eaud.
xxvt.
Wheat Is the staple of the State,
And mines are on the rise,
AnJ wool's Increasing so of late.
Men pull It o'er their eyes.
XXVII.
No pnper ras afflict the State,
The yellow boys are now.
And shine as bright as silver plate ;
Even Ueoeral Grant left two.
xxvm.
Ttut tho trade dollar has declined.
And wheat will, I allow ;
And fris-htrul wars, I fear, we'll find ;
The wbeat is shooting now.
XXIX.
Such armed strife. I truly dread.
As I do a guillotine ;
For many a one will lose his head.
When headers once begin.
XXX.
The Oefldnnt doth thus eppear
A State of golden sand.
And many people wander here.
For 'tis a wondrous land.

JhxA Freeman-Please irrant ;ne the liberty
of writing a few lines for your columns.
Spring- has again returned to our Western
homes, and farmers are busy tilling the rich
and fertile soil of our western prairies. The
soil In this county Is very rich snd fertile, ran--in
depth from six inches to six feet. It isa
loose. Mack mould, capable of producing at a
rapid rate all kinds of crops that are raised la
the North-western States.
Some parts can beat ua In raising wheat, al
thouKh we raise in th.s colmty tftlaekha wk
very rood crops-'usnally as tfiod i perhaps; as
could be expected f rom the manner In which
rarrninr Is generally lne.
The farmers here do not peyfofrh much more
than half the labor In rsNltig hr crops that
they do In my old entire State, Pennsylvania.
There are several small towns In this part ot
thecountry that ar thriving finely a I, of which
have been making exceedingly rapid growth
during the past two years. St rong iuducements
ar extended to all those who wish to become
citizens of Ibis Ane western country, and peo
ple from a distance are coming in and locating
and making their homes with us, because they
are x trinninir to find out that we have a conn
try and a society that are enal to anv In north
evu Iowa; If not In any part of the West- We
would like to have those of our Cambri. friends
who think or moving west to come to lilnek
hawk county and see and judge of the rich
prospects for successful and happy lives that
are not to be met with every day. O. K. J.

health fails, yon must make proper efforts to
restore it, or content yourself to die before
yonr time, or live a life of sickness and
misery, a useless drone in tho busy hive of
life. There are few sicknesses, even of a
chronic sort, that cannot le cured by a
resort to proper and painstaking means.
Ir. Keyser, the preat consumption and
chronic physician, has done wonders In the
way of restoring chronic Invalids to health ;
the discovery of Dr. Kevsf.b'r I,Uno Cure
has made the consumptive's chances of life
a thousand times better than over liefore, and
the Doctor is greater than his Lung Cure,
when you can aflford to employ both. In
thousands of cures which lr. Keyser has
effected, aomeeven, after all hope of life was
abandoned, stamp him as a man of rare
genius and wonderful abilitiesln the cure of
anv chronic disease. Treatise stmt free.
Price of Jnng Cure Si. 50 per lmtlle or $7.50
per half dozen. To le had at Dr. Keyser's
Laboratory, 240 Penn avenue, Pittsburgh.
His private consultiug office is No. 120 Penn
avcuue.
Wonderful Success. Tt is reported
that rtosriEE's German Syrup has, since
Its introduction in the United States, reached
the immense sale of 40,000 dozen per year.
Over 6,000 Drnggists have ordered this
Medicine direct frwm the Factory, at Wood
bury N. .1., and not one have reported a sin
gle failure, but every letter speaks of its as
tonishing success in curing severe Coughs,
Colds settled on the IJreasl,Tonsumption, or
any disease of Throat and Lungs. We ad
vise any person that has any predisposition to
weak Lungs, to go to their Druggists, Lem
mon & Murray, Ebonsbnrg, or Woleslagle &
Son, Wilmore, and get this Medicine, or
inquire aiiout it. Regular size, 75 cents;
sample liottle, 10 cents. Two doses will re
lieve any case. Don't neglect yoor cough.
Tty the bursting of the leaves, by the
lengthening of the eves, Spring is coming;
by the flowers that scent the air, by the
skies more pure and fair, by the singing
everywhere, Spring is coming; by the cloth
ing hue and neat which Iless has now In
slock complete, at his famous store, Main
street,and whose prices none can beat. Spring
Is coming imleed it lias come and sensible
men and youths are all going there to buy
elegant snits worthy of the great, occasion.
