late of Cresson, died of consumption at the

The Altoona Suit rises in circulation
' more and more every day. Olad to hear it,
for there are no more honorable or deservim'
men in the profession than Hrothers Barclay

, and steadfast Democratic journal than the

I The Wilmore camp-meeting, after a suc
j cessful session of one week, closed its labors
I hint Monday. The attendance the preceding
! Sunday was unusually large. The Cone
i maugh camp-meeting aiso folded its tents at
i the same time, the attendance having been
j fully up to the figures of other years, not-
withstanding the inclement weather.

The Johnstown Tri'tuiu- gets off this
pun. and it is a pretty good one : Kv
changes in different parts of the country are
still telling about the slight fall of snow in
Somerset county some weeks ago. It has
not occurred to iinv of them to remark upon
the singularity of the fact that it was in
Somerset w here the Winter-set in so early
the season.
Mr. Theodore Slick, of Johnstown, de
clares on tht! honor of a man who would
scorn to tell a lie that one day last week he
fell f rom the railroad at Paeksadd'e, near
Flairsville, to the river bottom, a sheer de
scent of about 175 feet, and beyond a slight
shaking-up. escaped w ithout in jury. It was
certainly a Slick escape, provided, "of course,
it is not a Slick figment of the brain.
A leak in the reservoir of the water
works has throughout the summer prevented
the water from rising above a certain point
in that receptacle. On Friday and Saturday
last, Street Commissioner Humphreys made
close iiwiuiiy into the nature of the trouble,
and was successful in finding the leak. It
was stopped, and the supply of water, it is
thought, will not hereafter run short.
The Altoona base ball club had made
arrangements to come to Fbensburgon Tues
day of this week, to measure bats with
a home nine, but the game was neeessnrilv
deferred by reason of the wet weather. If
nothing intervene to prevent, they w ill arrive
here to-morrow on the morning train, and
the game will be played in the afternoon,
probably, if at all, at" the picnic grounds.
The'Fir-t National bank, John Dibert &
Co.'s bank, and the Savings hank, all Johns
town institutions, have each had a Vale Lock
Company time-piece attached to their safes.
When the safe is closed, and the time-piece
is set to a given hour, anything short of a ton
of ijiant pow der would signally fail to prevail
on the doors to swing open till that hour luul
roiled round. The time-pieces work to a
charm.
Forgetting for a moment lhat he had a
long pole across his shoulder, AlK! JFeitshne
turned around in front of Freidholf's store
on Wednesday last to see who had spoken to
him in passing, and the result was that the
other end of the pole went crashing into a
large pane of Jglassin one of the show win
dows, leaving a hole large enough for the
biggest bargain in the store to be shoved
through with the greatest ease.
Hubert A. Clarke, Fsip, died in Mc
Veytown hist Sunday, and was buried the
following Tuesday morning. He was a
member of the bar, and for several years
practised his profession in Altoona "part
nership with I. J. Xcff, Esq. Above the
common stature of men, and a perfect speci
men of physical manhood, lie yet fell an early
prey to the insidious advances of consump
tion, ami died in the full bloom of useful
ness. Father Vincent, the Passjonist priest
who concluded a very successful Mission at
the Church of the Holy .Name in this place,
a day or two ago, left yesterday for Wilmore,
where he is now conducting another Mission
which we have no doubt will prove equally
successful. Father Vincent is a profound
reasoner and an eloquent expounder of ath
olie doctrines, ami we are sure that our peo
ple will be glad to welcome, him hack at any
time. Sunday night 1 1st was pitch dark, and
torrents of rain fell, but this unfavorable
combination of circumstances failed to deter
a couple of young persons of this place from
leaving Wilmore camp-meeting at midnight
am! attempt ing to come home. They traveled
and traveled till they ran the buggy over the
road-side, when they quit and c rawled into
a convenient barn and waited for daylight.
The buggy was somewhat damaged, but its
occupants" weren't.
An interesting scene occurred in the
Lancaster county court Tuesday afternoon
of hist week, in" which crimination and re
crimination passed freely lM'tween three
prominent lawyers, District Attorney Eshle
man, J. Hav Frown and E. K. Martin. All
three b Ioiii' to the I.'enublican partv, and
eie h eloquently accused the other of black
mail, lirilierv, ami prevarication, vur. -Martin
is well known here, lie having graduated
to the bar from the office ofF. A. Shoemaker,
Esq.
A contract has been entered into by a
Clearfield county firm named Hopkins &
Irwin for getting" out lO.noo.noo feet of logs at
Cherrv Tree, Indiana county, about eighteen
miles 'north of this place, "within the next
three years. Operations have already been
commenced on the building of a train road
from the timber tract to the river, a distance
of three ami a half miles. The logs are to be
1 taken out for Messrs. Baird Cassidy, who
' we presume are a Look Haven or Wiliiams
'. port firm.
1 Mrs. Tlrawlev, the venerable wife of Mr.
Michael F.rawley, of Portage township, at
tempted to mount a three-legged chair the
other dav for the purpose of securing some
thing beyond her reach, when the c hair up
set and she fell with her side on the back of
it. fracturing several of her ribs, if we are
rightly informed, and otherwise injuring
herself internally to such nn extent that it
was thought at latest accounts she could not
recover. Her age is upw ard of seventy years,
ai d for that reason if none other her injuries
are likely to piove fatal.
' A few nights since, Mrs. Haley, who
lives at Sandy Uun, near Altoona, Flair
county, was returning from a picnic in a
grove near her home, having in hcrarms her
year-old child. Iwhen she accidentally wal ked
into the mouth of an old ore shaft, and slid
down an embankment a distance of eighty
feet or more. Killed? So. A party of
men, attracted by her cries, speedily re
stored both woman and child to terra firnia
ami conveyed them to their home, where an
examination demonstrated that neither had
i received serious injury.
There is every pibmisa of good weather
and every assurance of a gay time at tho
Catholic picnic in this place to-morrow (Sat
, unlay), nothing having lieen left undone by
i the management to make it a festival of fun
ami a feast ot friendship. Excursion tickets
: will be sold at Joh'.istown and Altoona, and
j a special train to connect at Cresson with
! Mail east at l.'fs p. in., will Ik; run on our
' Hranch road. So let there be a grand gath
erlng from far and near, and let innocent
j recreation and healthful enjoyment reign

I John Frotherline, Esq., of Ilollidaysburg,
; died suddenly at his residence in that place
i last Tuesday of fatty degeneration of the
; heart. He was seated at the dinner-table,
talking to niemlH-rs of his family, when the
'. dread summons came. The deceased learned
; the printing business and followed it for a
, time as cditorand publisher, but subscquent
, ly turned his attention to the law He was a

I Our friend ' '!')" Thompson desires us
, to say to our readers that he has this week
I received from the widely-renowned clothing
, establishment of Wanamaker & Brown,

A Sinking Valley correspondent of the
Altixma Sun tells how Walter Fleck, of that
vicinage, attempted to go to church the other
Sunday on mule-back, but failed to get there
because Mr. Donkey, who, like ail of the
. oreeu, speils his praying with a great big Ii,
j suddenly stopped in the middle of the road
I and allowed Mr. Fleck to go on over his
1 head and into the mud, greatly demoralizing
! his Sunday-go-to-meetin' clot lies and knock
ing the piety out of him very completely.
Mr. M. J. Smith is the name of a Johns
town individual who last week made a couple
of desperate attempts to commit suicide. He
first drew a case-knife across his wrist till a
drop or two of blood put in an appearance,
and then quit : and afterward attempted to
disembowel himself with the blunt edge of a
I poie-ax. l tie police took him to the lock-up,
; and after he had slept off the fumes or an
; overdose of bad whiskv which he had gulped
j down he felt exceedingly ashamed of himself.
I On the night of the"lhof Julv lasr, a
j valuable mare belonging to Mr. Simon P.
! Kline, of Carroll township, was stolen from
; his pasture-field. The animal was traced
; to the possession of a man living in Mndtown,
i one of Altoona's suburbs, who promptly
: surrendered it to its rightful owner. Further
research discovered the fact that two vouths,
j named respectively John Will and John
I Bellinger, were the thieves, and thev were
i taken into rutodv Thursday last and com
j mitted to jail to answ er at Cmirt. Thev had
j sold the mare for fi'o, two dollars of which
! were paid them in hand.
'Judge" J. J. Cannon, a traveling sales
man for the firm of Bums, Schmueker Co.,
Philadelphia, died suddenly at his home in
that city last Thursday morning. The de
ceased was well known throughout this
county, having for many years paid our
grocers periodical business visits. It is no
more than a month since lie was in our
midst, looking the picture of health. We
have said that the "Judge" was well known.
It may be added that his winning ways
made him a general favorite, and hosts of
friends here and elsewhere will learn of his
untimely decease with feelings of sincere
i regret. His age was about 47 years,
j Johnstown is to have both a newpassen
j ger depot ami a new freight station. The
I plans have been sent to the Philadelphia office
i and have been approved, and it is understood
I that the work will lie begun immediately and
be pushed forwatd to an early completion,
i The freight depot is to be fitted up for a pas
; senger depot and a new freight house built
on the site of the present passenger station.
; The idea in changing the location of the
' freight house is to. lessen the danger to teams,
. as under the present arrangement it is lm
, possible to reach the building without cross
! ing the railroad track twice and running the
risk of being run into by a locomotive.
The Local Aecj says that Huntingdon
. c an also produce a witness to the truth that
: the Kthioman can change his skin. Mrs.
; Moses Tolivar, who fifteen years ago, was a
j mulatto, is now almost white, andean hard
; ly be distinguished from a true Caucasian, j
' The change has taken place gradually, leav-
i ing spots of the original color, which have l
' imw disappeared. We mention this case i
merely because so much ado has been made i
i in eastern pa juts about the same remarka- j
; ble fact in that vicinity. Xo doubt there j
j are many cases in different parts of the j
j Union, as we see that Mrs. Cook, of Wood- j
' vale, Cambria county, has also c hanged in I
appearance from a raulatti to a fairer color.
! Last Friday, the Sheriff of Blair county. ,
' assisted by a posse, proceeded to a tract of j
; land about one mile in a southerly direction '
I from Kittanning Point and dispossessed a !
: family by the name of Duncan, who had i
: squatted on the land. Fesistance was offer- I
! I'd by the Duncans, and two of them, father j
'. and "son, were arrested and taken to Holli- !
i dayshurg jail, where, at last accounts, they j
1 remained, bail not hciv.g forthcoming. This .
trai t of land, w hich is said to be quite valu- '
. able, has been in dispute for some time, the j
I Duncans claiming their title to be valid, and
others disputing this. A law-suit of big di- j
niensjons will grow out of the mattter, sev-
; oral Pittsburgh law vers having been retained .
by the Duncans to attend to their interests,
i A festival and fair in aid ot the Congre
I gationa! church of this place will open in the
; old Thompson store-room, next door to the
bank. High street, on Monday evening next,
and remain open probaoly throughout the
week. A large number of donated articles
; will be disposed of at either public or private;
; sale, while a table bountifully supplied will
tempt the palate of the hungry. In a word,
, there will be good things to eat, and nice
I things to look at and buy, to say nothing of
, a host of handsome young lady attendants
who may be looked at but not bought, and
i with such a bill of fare presented it will be
strange indeed if the public do not patronize
this entertainment in the manner it so well
deserves. The money realized, we under
stand, will be devoted to the purchase of a
. heater for the church building,
j A young man named Thomas Lyle, of
: Philadelphia, was in charge of a drove of
cattle which w re being conveyed eastward
over P. II. II. Wednesday of last week. On
. the evening of that day, Win n the train had
reached Lilly's station, this county, he
. started to walk over the tops of the' cars,
and in the darkness missed his footing and
fell to the track beneath. A number of the
cars passed over him, and he was horribly
mangled by the wheels, one arm and one leg
. being ground off. Medical aid was iinme
i diatelv summoned, but in vain. Death put
, an end to his sufferings the following morn
j ing. The deceased was 21 years of age, and
his mother resides at 1 ,4m S'orth Eighteenth
' street, Philadelphia. In alwdience to in
structions telegraphed by her, the body was
j prepared for burial and forwarded to her
address on the Atlantic express Thursday
evening.
j A gentleman in this place who might
! never hear the bi.tt of it and would possibly
ru? wroth at mrl concerned if we mentioned
i his name, undertook the other day, at the
j suggestion of his "beiter half," to" c apture
! one or more of the pertty little yellow birds
i so common in this latitude, and for that pur
I pose put a charge of powder in an old blun
j derbuss, which he rammed home with a pa
: per wad, and on top of that poured a small
; quantity' of water, the object being to stun
; the birds and then gobble them up before
: they could recover their equanimity. Thus
' equipped, he blazed away three times in suc
I cession without result, and then determin
, ing to do or die, he put in an extra charge of
i powder and a whole bamd (gun barrel) of
J water. This time the old fuzee went off with
, great eclat, and so did the pivot and one of

1 -V I)F.r.riTKr Camxk. On Sunday night
. last, "Maje," the well-known four-footed
; member of the Thompson household of this
i place, calmly breathed his lu.tt, which was
avl the tole lie had. We know it is not cus
tomary to announce the demise of dogs in the
columns of a newspaper, but we make an
, exception of "Maje" for the two-fold reason
I that he w as known to everybody in town ami
petted by all, and that he' had attained the
patriarchal age (for a dog) of years. Born
at the beginning of the late war, he hoped
and feared with the rest throughout that
tremendous contest and wagged his tail when
treason died : he saw, or might have seen if
: he had been there, -irant go into office and
; out : he saw. or might, etc., the n prearing of
I the High Joint Commission, and must have
i heard the shriek which Liberty gave utter
i ance to when Haves was counted in : he saw
! Coffroth elected to Congress last fall, and he
saw the two Democratic county conventions
; of the present year. Few dogs "living or dead
can or could boast of as much. "Maje" died,
j of old age. His general system had fallen
j into decay, and his approaching dissolution
could not have l-en unknown to the animal,
I for, departing from hsi uniform custom of
j sleeping in tiie Thompson store-room on High
j street, he repaired to the dwelling-house,
! where, crawling into a room occupied bv a
! member of the family, he snuffed out, making
j no sign. The hody'was interred next day,
j and a neat slab, bearing "Maje's" name aiid
i age, was erected to mark the spot. Wm. B.
Conway's couplet would be appropriate in
' this connection :
"Hie jnert rani that is to ?iy.

Makkiso OtR SoLmKR's Graves. In
1K7.J, Congress passed a law providing for
the erection of durable head-stones over the
graves of soldiers of the regular and volun
teer forces whose remains are interred in the
Xational Military Cemeteries. That law
was carried out," and the graves of the na
tion's dead in those cemeteries are now per
manently marked. At the instance of the
War Department, Congress at its session last
winter authorized the erection of similar
headstones over the graves of Union soldiers
who are buried in private and village ceme
teries, whether they died in service or since
their muster-out or "discharge, and the Quar
termaster General at Washington was order
ed to proceed at once to collect the necessary
information as to where these head-stones
are required. Our townsman, Mr. C. T.
Itoberts, kindly undertook to furnish the
names of the soldiers buried in our several
cemeteries whose last resting places are un
marked, ami the subjoined letter will show
the result of his researches :

In due course of time a neat head-stone,
eaidi bearing one ofthc foregoing inscriptions,
will be prepared and forwarded. When
placed in proper position, the possibility will
cease to exist of the graves of our noble dead
being forgotten through neglect and lapse of
time.
The labor involved in the preparation of
the list of names as given, with its accom
panying data of the number of regiment and
company, when killed or died, age, etc., was
very considerable. It was essentially a labor
of love, done without reward or hope of re
ward, and for his eminent services in this p,.
half Mr. Roberts is entitled to unbounded
gratitude. The credit is wholly his.
Freaks ok an Tnsane Man. An indi
vidual wlio says his name is James H. Stoner
was captured" at Lilly's on Saturday last,
while roaming about in a condition of ab
solute nudity, and the fact being clearly ap
parent tbat he was insane, he was brought
hither and loc ked up in jail for safekeeping.
Sheriff Kyan and turnkey McXainara find
him a most unenviable prisoner. He has
what may be called lucid intervals, and dur
ing one 'of these, on Sunday last, be was
permitted the run of the corridor of the jail.
One of his first exploits was to tear off the
narrow bar which surmounts the iron railing
surrounding the second tier of cells, and
laying it across to the side of the rear window,
he walked back and forth over the bar several
times. Had either eye or foot failed him for
an instant, he must have been precipitated a
distance of eighteen or twenty feet to the
stone flooring beneath and probably injured
badly, if not killed. He was rescued from
his perilous position and locked up, but not
without vigorous opposition on his part.
The following Monday afternoon, he some
what varied the programme. Procuring a
bit of iron, broken from his bedstead, he
dug through the wall of his cell into the cor
ridor, removed one of the heaters from the
floor, and. first upsetting a bookcase which
stands in the corridor, dropped down into
the cellar-way, a distance of ten feet. The
cellar way has connection with that part of
the jail used by the Sheriff as a residence,
and the next" appearance iff the lunatic,
naked as theday lie was born, hair alone ex
cepted, was in the midst of the Sheriff's
family. The sensation he created was al
layed as speedily aspossible by turnkey
McXamara, who, with some assistance,
placed him in another cell. Next morning,
when he was looked in on again, it was
found that he had broken in fragments
everything inside his cell capable of being
destroyed, even including the iron guard
which encloses the aperture through which
the meals of prisoners are handed to them.
Prior to his exit from his cell Monday after
noon, he had been secured by manacles
around his wrists, but being of delicate
build, he was able to remove these at pleasure.
He is now ironed both hand and fo,,t, and it
is expected that hereafter he may be kept
within reasonable bounds. Stoner is a joung
man of probably 2- years, and bears toe ap
liearancc and uses the language of one who
has seen brighter days. He says his father
lives in Xewry, Blair county, ami seems to
confidently await the coming of some one to
take him home. His situation is a deplora
ble one, and it his friends, there or else
where, do not interest themselves in his
case, it will of course become a necessity to
remove him to an asylum.

Committed koh Tihai,. We learn from
the Lancaster TnteWyencrr that Owen Cun
ningham, whose arrest in Carrolltown and
subsequent taking to Lancaster by Officer
Whorley, of this place, were noticed in these
columns two weeks ago, had a hearing Thurs
day last before Alderman Spurrier, of that
city, on two charges preferred against him
of obtaining money by false pretense. The
first charge, made "by William T. Vouart, of
Lancaster, is to the effect that the defendant
sold Mr. Vouart a large bill (if lumber and
induced him to advance him seventy-two
dollars,, saying he would have to pay the
freight oh the lumber before it could be
shipped, and that he not only did not pay the
freight on said lumber, but failed to semi the
lumber to Mr. Youart. The second com
plaint against Cunningham was made by
James Hawks, of Chest Springs, Cambria
county, who charges that the defendant sold
a bill of lumber to Frederick A. Bletz, of
Columbia, representing that he was a part
ner of Mr. Hawks, under the name of O. Cun
ningham fc Co., by means of which false re
presentation he induced Mr. Wet 7. to advance
him seventy-eight dollars on account, where
as he was not a partner of Mr. Hawks and
was only authorized to sell lnmlier for him
on commission said commission having been
paid him before he obtained the seventy
eight dollars from Mr. Uletz. In default of
hail, Cunningham was committedto jail to an
swer both charges at the next Court of
Quarter Sessions.
A Card to the Pi m.ic Knowing that
this community lias heen imposed upon hv
Jews and their Uentile imitators with shoff
dy croods of every description, and especially
shoes with pnper insoles, paper counters and
shoddy outsoles, I take pleasure in offering
to the people of this vicinity a line of goods
which I can guarantee perfect in every par
ticular. I am the agent in this place of W.
E. Nchinertz & Co. for the sale of their cele
brated shoes, and they have, authorized me
to guarantee every pair sold and return the
money to my customers for any imperfect
work that may come out of their shops. I
have also for sale the celebrated Walker hoot,
besides other superior makes of boots. I do
not say that I will sell goods at lower prices
than other dealers, but I do say that I will
furnish a better article, which will make it
cheaper because more serviceable.

On the road from Dawson's mill to (rallitrin. and

It may not be out ol place here to remark that
the most paying crops produced from the land of
that neighborhood consist of lumber and coal the

many places, as if eourtine the observation of the

mini. -ow"i mav
eouree of my narrative
a few observations on this wonderful subterranean
supply ol tuel and its attendant iormations.
The red man roamed over this vast eontinent for
aces in the centuries of the past, yet he never
thouirht to utilize this wondrous storehouse of un
derground fuel which the Creator prepared for the
use of man. Had the IndhMi tribes continued to
roan) over these htlls and mountains for many cen
turies more than they did. we may safely believe
that those vast .supplies of eoal and iron which
have done so much for the world, would still be lv
infr dormant and useless tn the bosom of the earth,
and these "foundation! of the earth'- would be luid
to no purpose.
The pale-faced man of intellect was impelled bv
Heaven to cross the broad Atlantieand rouse the
resources of thefNew World intoactivitv and use
fulness. Otherwise the Creator had tn vain stored
theeo prodiirious supplies of coal and Iron. Hero
wo perceive the Lruidiiifr hand of destinv. These
vast stores of utility were lytnfr ready to be devcl- .
oped, with no inteliiirent workmen fit 'or wlltinp for 1
the task. The native tribes lived, hunted, fouirht !
and died, leavlnn behind thutu no trace in th tide j
of time : but a Columbus was born in theC Mil World '
and tho star of pr.irres hefran to ascend in the i
western horizon. When tho klnsrs of the earth i
drew back in cold apathy, a woman came to the !
help ol the sailor of destiny on his heaven-Inspired j
voyage and a New World was discovered 'wherein !
dwelleth righteousness." And it' righteousness I
does nut dwell in this New World peopled bv men '
who tied from the oppression" of the Old W orld, j
like Nonh's dove, where would she llnd a restlnir- ;
place lor the sole of her foot on the world-wl.lo sea
of iniquity which overspreads the realms across tho I
urreat waters? Ixiiur live the memory ol Isabella of i
Spain, who came to the "help of the tniirhty'1 in !
time of need ! So the white race occni.i.! the New j
"World, and the decrees of Clod stood last. The ;
i riches of the mines were there, and the white man i
i used them : and this was clearly in pursuance of :
! the irrcat plan laid before time beiran. I
j It may be wort hy of remark that the eoal forma- ;
! tion is not at the surface, to interfere with airricul- ;
' tore, but Is stored out of the way in the world's vast i
j cellar, ready tor use when needed : and. as has j
' been remarked by others, the Iron oi Pennsylvania i
j could not be worked without the coal. Iid these
! thinirs chance to be so? When chance is alrcays !
' ri'fht it must be a -nr and no chance.

ucn wa the rate or .iciin i "ouiria- nni lanvly
iu the far ofl land of Texas, ami such lias been tho
late of many a frontier family before and sine.
As we have previ-'U.-Iy stated, when John Hur
iroon came home from Texas be touk up a wild
farm in lcarhelri township, this comity, in the
vicinity of Heaver creek. The family penetrated
into the wilds ami commenced the work of reducing
the foret bind to a productive state, havimr no
roof or filielter of any kind till they erected a tern-
Cor"ry nootli or shed, tncconstruetion ot which may
e described as billows: A tfreat pine is selected
and Iclled in a convenient position, and a lo tiie
desired lemrth of the booth is chopped otl. Pole,
or rafters are then cut loui enouuh to r-uid'-r tho
depth ofthc booth Irom front to back ample and
convenient. Tlu-se poles or rafters are driven into
the ground behind the supporting loir, on which j
they all rest all inclinimr at tiie same arable. j
Other poles the leniftli ol the booth arc then cut j
and fastened aloii at riuht amrles to the first, and 1
at e;ual distances apart, lor the support ot the roof
coverinrr of pine-lrouyhs or hemlock bark. The
bark is stripped ofl in pretty wide strips, which are
straiirhtened out and laid on in courses, as you
wouid lav Phlntrlos. and a better or a tiirhter roof
one could not wish for. In the absence ot bark,
piiic buii". lis, tiiopiicd. oil iu louAciiii-j.. length-,
answer very well. These tKiuirhs arelaid In enrsR
on the aNivo desirrihed supporting poles, with their
butts upward, and they make a pretty tltrht roof
for sunshine or rainy weather. A rood. cheerful
Are Is built in front, the whole lensrtn of the booth,
if necessary, and one can then sleep within and
hav no fearol midnight prowlers from the forest
the fire enardinir in front and the great loir ln the
rear. Thi sort of dwelling can be erected In short
order, and would answer very well for the ne of
hunters, homesteaders, or exploring parties of any
kind. An axe is the only tool needed forthe work.
