Tbe death of a little son of Deputy Post master Davis, noted elsewhere, was cansed by diphtheria, a disease which, if we are correctly informed, is afflicting another member of the same family a little dangh ter. Mr. Davis himself is aisn said to be ill, but the nature Tf his affliction we failed to learn. Other cases of diphtheria in our town are likewise reported but we believe uoue of them are of a serious character. We had the pleasure of a visit on Friday last from Mr. Hartley Corless, who resides two miles west of Altoona. an 1 is one of the most steadfast and reliable patrons the Freeman can boast of "an honest man, the noblest work of God." Mr. Corless was ac coir.panled by his son and brother, both of whom we were glad to welcome. May Hea ven bless our friend Corless and keep him and his from all kinds of distress. On Saturdav last .Tndee Dean issued a decree requirine the Commonwealth to re fund 8709.50, the amount claimed to be un duly assessed npon Huntingdon county for the year 1878, by the Board of llevenue Commissioners. This action is taken in view of the decision recently made by J ndge Pearson at Harrisburg, wherein Huntingdon couuty was one of tLe fifteen appellants, and the extra tax imposed by the Board was or dered to be stricken off. Mr. John McFayden, superintendent of tlie coke ovens of the Cambria Iron Compa ny, while at Hennlngton, last Thursday, stepped on a loose grate of a coke oven, and tbe covering turning nnder his weight, one foot and leg went through Into the furnace. He was Instantly pulled out, but not be fore his boot and the leg of his pantaloons had been burned to a crisp. That was all the damage done, but it certainly was a very narrow escape from a terrible injury. Attention is invited to the advertisement of Mr. D. G. McCullongh, wholesale and re tail grocer, of Altoona. who offers bargains in his line which we have never seen equal led. We have known "Dave" for a number of years, as well in Johnstown as in Altoona, and we have no hesitation in saying that he is a lilieral and deserving VinsineHS man, and as he makes no promise tliat be is not abun dantly able to fulfil, it behooves our readers to consult their luteresls by giving him a call. The case of the Kittanning Coal Com pany rerstn the Hontz heirs has lieen before the Huntingdon county court for more than a week and at latest acconnts was still pending. Twenty-three acres of col land lying In the neighborhood or llouiziaie.

Eminent counsel is employed on either side, and much interest attaches to the proceed ings. Mr. G. G. Owens, who designs remov5ng with his family to Johnstown next week, re signed the office of borough weinhmaster last Monday. A regular meeting of Council was held the same evening, v ben M. Da vid E. Kvans was cliozen to fill the vacancy. The Democrats have a majority la Council, but it appears the memter8 of that political household were not on hand in full force when the vote came to be counted, and so a Republican was enabled to slip in and gob bio up a fat ofiice worth 350 a year, more or less. The test oil well at Porterfield's. on Twolick creek, Indiana county, which is down fifteen hundred feet, and still dry, Is to he drilled three hundred feet deeper. At fourteen hundred feet the Stump creek well, near Reyoldsville. Jefferson county, lias tap ped small quantities of oil. Tbe Osceola well seems to have fizzled out. Arrange ments are going forward for the drilling of a well in Jackson township, this county, and ;tive operations will be begun at an early day, the capital stock having been nearly all subscribed. A polite, well-dressed stranger played it fine on our old friend Mr. Charley Shannon. of Altoona, one day last week. He entered the jewelry establishment of thatgenTleman, and, having selected three gold watches, re quested permission to carry them home to allow bis mother to choose one from the lot as a birth-day present for her daughter. Tjis request was granted, and the stranger thereupon departed. He has stayed away ever since, as have also the three watches, and Mr Shannon mourns and will not be comforVd over the loss of Mr. 1m. M. Woolf, of Johnstown, will be afforded an opportuity next, week to tell what he knows about a "Tremendous Fight among the Clothing Men," of that place.from which b himse.f etn-rgvI wiih the cham pion belt as an emblem of victory. Of course tbe fight was a mythical one, Vint our readers may rest assured that there is noth ing mythical about the large and elegant stock of clothing or the wonderful low pri ces which Iiavc secured for Mr. Woolf the distinctive tillw of "Poor Man's Friend," which he has houestly earned and is wen worthy to wear. ... The ladies will be Interested in learning that Mrs. R. K. Jones is In receipt each week of something new In the way of hats, and is selling them and all other goods at. prices which certainly leaves no excuse for going elsewhere to purchase. She is selling trim med hats as low as 75 cents, two good linen handkerchiefs for 25 cents, ueckties as low as a cents each, and all other goods at prices equally cheap. While sie is doing this, how ever she has no desire to sell for anything but cash, and is particularly anxious to avoid the annoyance of charging small arti cles and hopes no one will ask her to do it.

No allusion to the gentleman named, hut all others interested will do well to consult both of said notices, printed on this page, and act in accordance therewith. Autumn blends her choicest lines, and mixes many a precious aye ; tne. Kionei. ui gentian blues mate the deep splendors of her sky. The oks are strong and grander far than when June's sunshine gilt the moss, and Time's bright dial, bell and star, points out. no faintest, sign of loss. But it is con siderahlv cohfbr now than it was in June, and this' ought to suggest to the mind of the reader the inquiry whether he has made suitable provisions for the change of season by providing himself with heavy clothing. If uot he should do so forthwith, and should take care that his purchases are made at Godfrey Wolff" s, next door to the postoflice, Altoona. His stock is very large and em braces all stvles and qualities, and he posi tively will sell lower than the lowest house in that city. A couple of Altoona youths, named Ms Caulev visited Cresson on Saturdayllast, and while there, it is alleged, broke into tbe cottage of Andrew Carnegie, Esq., where they not only tore a ciock to pieces aim i scattered silver spoons and various other ar- tides around promiscuously, but cut the top's off a pair of long legged IkkiIS and appropri ated the balance, beniden stealing, if we mis take not, a pair of shoes, and possibly other articles which tbe owners alone would be apt to miss. A warrant was Issued for the ar rest of tlie young scamps, and Mr. Michael Storm went to Altoona Monday morning to serve the document, but with what success we failed to learn, though we presume, if arrested, that bail was entered for their ap pearance at Court, as neither of them had teen brought to jail here up to yesterday at noon. It Is rather late in the season to ta'.k about big vegetables, but as we only learned the other day that Mr. .losepii I'ringie, or Croyle township, succeeded in raising three monster sweet pumpkins and two smaller ones from only two seeds, we have thought the matter worthv of montiou even at this late dav. Tbe largest of the three largest ones, which measured in circumference 6 feet 3 inches one way and 7 foet the other, weighed 1.V5 pounds, while the other two, the dimensiors of which we failed to learn, kicked the beam, so to speak, at 131 am. 128 pounds respectively. Add to these the two smaller pumpkins, one of which weighed !ti pounds, and the other 2 J pounds, and we have a grand total in weight, of .13.1 pvinnds, II the production of two seeds. Some pump kins surely and we doubt whether any man, married or single, can manage on pumpkius to get away with our friend Mr. Pringle. In the forests of Blacklick, we have of ten been told, is a pack of wild varmints which prey on the fold, and are known by a name which it is natural to fear, though when applied to a Unman is not harsh to the ear ; and the name that we mean by most folks will be guessed, though many there are who have never been blessed with a bargain or two from a store that is kept by a clothier named Wolf, who for tlie first time has stepped this week to the front, in hopes to siKTeed in convincing onr readers that the advice they should heed is to call at his store, where nice garments indeed can be bought at a price which surely will lead not a few of our patrons, when to Altoona they go, to call on M. Wolf, who wishes all class es of people to know that he can be found at 1127 Eleventh avenue, next door below Bowman & Morrow's big store and just around the corner from the post-office, Al toona.

'Twas the day liefore Thanksgiving and all through the coop nst a "gnhhie" was heard, not even a "trhiwp," while things looked mighty blue, and there seemed not tlie ghost of a chance for a feast on a big turkey roast, when to tbe door of our sanc tum, without tremor or fear, came an nrchin quite welcome, and a "gay goholier," tbe latter of which, after entering the dcr, the He leaves a widow and several enwuren, me number of which we cannot state.

Although we have failed even yel todevote the neces sary time and space to the elaborate adver tisement seut ns by Mr. S. Teitelbaum, of Carrolltown, we hope to serve the Interests of that gentleman fully as well by inviting the attention of our readers to the immense stock of new goods of every description with which the People's Cheap Store Is now lit erally crammed, as well as by noting some nf lhe wonderful bargains which the ready cash can command at that popular estab'ish- ment. Here is a list of prices which we are sure cannot l surpassed for cheapness any where in tlie county, or anywhere out ot it. j Read, heed, buy what you need, and in get ting good bargains yon will surely succeed : All-wool Flannel at 30 cts. per yard; All wool CashmeTesat 40 an 1 50 cts. per yard ; All-wool Waterproof at 50 and 75 cents per yard ; Ladies' Balmoral and Cloth Skirts at 50 cts. and upward ; Ladies' Cloth Coals as low as 54.00; Jeans and Cassiraeres at 20.. per yard ; Ticking at 10c, Canton Flannels at S and !c.

With such figures as these and such goods as Mr. Teitelbaum keeps constantly on hand, it is a wonder indeed if his store is not constant ly crowded wlthi customers anxious and ea ger to secure a full share of the big largaius. Good Kf.aiuvo Cheap. We rtirect special attention to tbe ad vertisement of the Trtcrt'cun Agriculturist in this paper.
