Mr. John Fulton, of Johns town, a treiitleman of scientific attainments, has lately paid it a visit of inspection, and . gives it as his deliberate opinion that there is ' oil there, hut not in paying quantities. A little Imiv named Co;an drank a solu tion of concentrated lye in Altoona one day last week, and came "near dyinsr. Is it een eraily known that the taking into the stom ach of large quantities of urease will neu tralize the effects of concentrated lye? The reason why V. S. P. i: l:er A: Rro. are e',liift; -'nods all the time, while others are i lie. is that people always iro w here they find things the lowest, and the liarker lirothers have trained the reputation of selling goods at tin- very lowest prices. Thus they have plenty of cu-toiuers. Ve defy the truly good man of the IfcraW to cite a simple instance in which we charged less r more than transient rates for tran-ient advei fi-inu, or les or more than regular rates for regular advert i.-ing unless the neee ities of the advertiser demanded a reduction. Dare he say as much '.' Ofiii'er'Wherley reports that while on a business tour through Clearfield township la-t week, he saw three black bears cross the mad a short distance in advance of tlie horse he was riding.

The centre tlower bed is almost finished, with an eleva tion of live feel in the centre. There are three tlower beds on each side of the centre bed to be filled in yet.

Collins, contractors of the 10 miles of railroad in ISrail. Mr. Pindie, the moving spiiit in the l!iaekliek townsliip railroad project, informs us that a charter for that enterprise w ill be laid before the Legislature for its sanction at an early day. He is encouraged by many promised subscriptions to the capital stock of the proposed company. Tin' rival claims of ileneral Washington and Christopher Coluinbus to pre-eminence as. benefactors of the human race Were re cently taken into consideration by a Carroll town" debating dub. and it is gratifying to our national pride to learn that the (General came out tir-t-be-t in the contest. It is not often that our amiable friend up street forgets so important a personage as himself, but when he alleged that we had more cheek than an ordinary government mule he must certainly have overlooked the nraying donkey who draws government ra tions as postmaster of Kben.-lmrg. Trutieli Creek. Huntingdon county, has a ".irio-ity in the shaj e of a lully developed doubh'-headed ca'f, aliveand kicking.

It is the height of lolly to go to Altoona, or any fit her town where they pay hie rents, and expect to get better or even as good bargain- in dry good-, dress goods, clothing, hat.-, t aps, boot-, .-hoes, notions, etc., as ou can tind any day in the week at the cheap ca-h store of M.

A couple of Altoona boys stole 550 from their parents one day !a-t week, and went to John-town to -Lend the money, one of them was picked up by the police of the lat ter Ijplaee, and the oiiier was sub-dp-ient ly captured at his own home.

Three children of Mrs. Stewait Walters, of 1 leaver M ilis.

In view of this wholesale de-t nut ion of the finny I ribe by illegal means, it is not much wonder the Ilrtjixter wants to know what has become of their local Fish and ( tame Association. The attention of t he ladies is respect full v inv ited to the card of Miss M. K.

Mr. Henry Xuttman, of Xevvburg, Kan sas a y ruing" gentleman whom we had the pleasure of meet ing during our recent visit to Salina was married on Tuesday last, at St. Joseph's ((ierman) Catholic church. Johnstown, to Miss l.'ose. daughter of our friend and patron. Mr. Charles Until, of the latter place. The young and happy couple have our best wishes for a long and "prosper on life in this world and never-ending felici ty in the world to come. The reason why Mr. Henry (larnian, who is a Democrat and a worthy- young man, was retained in his position as "engineer at the water-works by the Republican Council, is probably to It" found in the fact that the windmill which is to supersede him was on its way to this place at the time the slate was being made out, and a change under the cir cumstances would wank to the advantage of no one. 'The attention of our neighbor of the 7ey. is mildly directed to this explanation. 'The Huntingdon Snni- Wn-khi AVf says that on Saturday last Mr. Joseph Haw'n, a soldier in the late war, was buried in the cemetery at that place. Some time previous to his death he claimed a pen-ion from the ( bivernment, and made application to the ( 'onimissioner of Pcnsion-forthe full amount due him. n the day of hi- burial a voucher was received from tlie Department showing that he was entitled to a pension of f 1.5oo. Deceased bad two children, who will proba bly receive the sum. The name of the man who was run over by the Philadelphia express at'Lilly's station oh the 11th of last month and dangerously hurt has been discovered to be Allen I.ydiek. He is of unsound mind, and liv ed with a son-in-law in Indiana county. When struck by the cars, he was on his way to Trout ville, where one of his sons is engaged in the prac tice of medicine. T'nder the kindly attention of Mr. James Mauils and family," ial 1 it zin, to whose hotel hp was removed, the old man is in a fair way of recovery. The Kopu'biican authorities of Kbens burg. like most of the Kepublii an business men of the community, don't advertise to a very alarming extent in Democratic newspa pers, and especially don't knock down prices on the Jiirald in 'order to extend aid and comfort to the FUKKMAN. P.ut they, you know, wield a much more limited patronage, and are confined to much narrower limits, and it is not of course to be expected that they should be imbued with such broad and liberal views as some of the Democratic county officials indulge in that direction. Mary Dolan is said to be the name of t lie woman w ho abandoned her lately born infant in Altoona one evening last week. Snugly ensconced in a basket and well wrapped up, it was left, as we stated in our last issue, on the steps of the St. John's Catholic parson age, w here it was soon after discovered and taken care of. Subsequently, the little one was adopted by an estimable family, and will no doubt receive careful training. As to the heartless mother, she is a Centre county widow, ami is thought to be now in Johns town, where she claimed to have relatives living. ur borough auditors inform us that (luring the pa-t year it cost f '.Jj os to keep the reservoir of t he w a'.cr works filled, while the revcTiue received for the use of the fluid was J-.'l'.t.st a dead lo- of $H.''.M. The new windmill, which is being put in position this week, and which will require a very small outlay to keep in running order, is confidently looked to to reverse t hose figures. The manifest of themill -hows that its weight is a ton and a half, while its cost was about .r.oo. the way. is this not the first wind mil! (the editor of tilt" llr'tli excepted) ever brought into u-e in Cambria county '.' it is announced that all that is to say, we presume, nearly all the employees of the Penn-y lvania railroad company and of the roads fun under its management will appear in uniform after the 1-t of next month. Simultaneously- on over seven thousand miles of track the railroad nu n will appear in uni foims of blue, consisting of frock coat, over vest and pants, the coats with brass buttons bearing the letters "P. K. I:.." and the -ame style of cap now worn, blue with while cord. On the cap front will be worn a plate with the title of the position, and on the lapels of fno ci at will be a number ami the letters "P. K. K." It is true that io!ities very oftdi make strange bedfellows, but we doubt whether any man cv-r found himself in such quest ioi: ahie company as ( ommi-siom-r .uriev finds himself to-day. with a certain individual as chief fugleman who less than a thousand years agoadvised a gentleman in this place to !ea e t he Democrat ic parly, because, as he alleged, said party is made up almo-t ex clusively of wh.it he was pleased to term ig norant foreigners of the -ame faith, and na tionality as Mr. Ourley himself. P.ut then, you know times change and men change w illi them especially when se!f-jnte;vst leads the way. !t is announced that Congressman Mor gan P.

In Indiana county, a couple of miles northeast of Armagh, is a straggling village which goes by the name of D'ultown. It is unknow n to fame except during camp-meeting times, when multitudes of people flock to it to buy food for man or horse, eked out by an occasional schooner of beer. P.ut now, it seems, Dilltown is destined to attain pro minence, though not of the most desirable character. L'ecent researches have developed the fact that the Mardis gang of counter feiters have for a long time made that place fine of their principal haunts, and a sort of underground habitation in its near neighbor hood, fitted up with diabolical contrivances peculiar to the manufacture of bogus coin, lias been visited by seme of the officers of the law. The birds, unfortunately, had flown, but a quantity of testimony "was gathered which, added to w hat was" known before, will in all probability lead to the arrest of a number of persons (some of whom have been nnsuspect.-d in f his connection) and the ul timate breaking up of the gang. F.lsewhere in this paper we present the new ad vert isemciit of the "Young America Clothing House," corner F.leventh avenue and 11th street, Altoona. The ''Young America" is one of the reliable business houses of our neighboring f it v, and the fame f.f the superiority of the clot liing there sold, as well as of the liberal prices at which they are sold, has spread far and wide. To go to Altoona and yet fail to call and see this great emporium and its contents were to betray a lack of at tent ion to one's own interests which would be deplorable. 'The Spring stock, eompi ising all the latest sty les in endless array, has just been received and opened, and the "Young America" people affirm in positive terms that they will dispose of the same at as low rates as the same quality of goods can U" Mir-hased inside the State. Fiery separate article is guaranteed, and therefore no risk is run of being in;po.'d on. ur advice to the reader is to pay t he ''Young America" a visit and buy a "nice suit for, Spring and Summer wear, and if you are not : pleased with the result we will cheerfully admit that we don't know" what we are talk ing about.

On the day that her son stood on the nitarand of fered up Ins first Ma.-? in her presence she mii.-lit well exclaim like the aired Simeon, "Now, oh: Eot-.l. di-Tui-s thy servant in peace, for my eyes have seen Thy salvation."
