The entire afternoon was consumed in lis

case, tl'.e jury retiring at the hour of ".4o o'
clock. Two hoys, charged with stealing iron from
seen in the garden ' the P. i. IX. at Johnstown, were called be
fore the Court and their eases disposed of
without the formality of a jury trial, the
theft not being denied. In oonsideiation of
their youth, each was ordered to pay a line

Mr. A. M. Hammers, who during the
spring ami summer season was a photogra

the venerable ' was last year a school-teacher iu Indiana
Jr., of Johns- : county, and goes back to his native heath to
engage in the .same vocation. During his
short stay here, he and his family were
much liked, and if Air. Hammers" comes
back next year, as he threatens to do, to
make hi residence with us a permanent one,
he will he warmly welcomed.
Mr. Joe Van'ormer, of White township,
paid us a pop isit the hcginniinr of the pres

the Republican nomination for S'neiiii', all
reports to that fiVef to the contrary not
wiihstanding, but will devote all his energies
from this time henceforward, for the period
of a half year, toward getting out several
million feet of lumber for market. Gates,
of his own township, he thinks, w ill be the
nominee, but f'riste and some others we
might name doubtless would dispute that.
Mr. Henry Mellon, chairman of the
Greenback Committee of Cambria county,
was in town the other day. lie says that
through oversight no candidate for County
Surveyor was placed on the Greenback tick
at at their late convention, and that a meet
ing of his oiiiinittee to till the vacancy will
be called at an early date. Mr. Me( 'oimell.
who was a candidate for the oflice last year
and was elected by the combined vote of the
-reeii'oackers and Republic ans.though no va
cancy then existed, is likely to be the coining
mar.

Nature seems to 1m- prolific in strange i
freaks now a days, but we don't know that ;
there is any thing in the whole cat-egory of t
her wonderful doings to surpass the re
markable experience of a Maltese eat which '
recently found a home in the Fiivkman '
household, where a couple of weeks ago
it gave birth to two dead but well-formed
kittens, and also to the fully developed head
of still another one, which came into the '
world minus the body, legs, tail, etc. But '
that was not all, for a week later the same I
cat broii' lit forth three more kittens, two

up. Pcnedetto is said to have bitten a piece
out of George's upper lip, but a prosecution
lor mayiiem, wnicii nan oeen entereu, was
not pressed. Carrying a concealed weapon,
in the nature of a" dirk nearly a foot long,
was what brought the defendant to grief.
The' jury listened patiently to a mass of tes
timony adduced, and. after jdeas by John
F. P.arnes, Esq.. for defendant, ami District
Attorney Rose for the Commonwealth, re
turned a verdict of not guil'y.

charge stated. The verdict of the jury was
not guilty, hut that the defendant pay the
costs.
Considerable prominence was given to an
alleged rape castWfrom Carroll township, in
which Mr. William Douglass figured as the
defendant. The complainant, w ho is a mar
ried woman, told her story in a straight for
ward manner, nut the Grand Jury, after lis
tening to all the testimony adduced, failed
for what to them seemed good and suOi -ieiit .
reasons to find a true bill against th.e accused.
Mr. Douglass' bail was therefore released
from further responsibility.

The case of Jacob Sehwartzman, indicted
from Johnstown for not lending a helping
hand to an officer while tin- latter was at
tempting to effect nn arrest, attracted some
attention. The jury found the defendant
not guilty.
Com'th vs. Jacob Hawker, a young man ,
named Alt, and yet another one named Gli
caulf. This fellow Hawker, following his j
usual bent, raised a row ami ruction in Con-

roped in as his '-butties." It was a tedious ',
Case, presided over on the part of the com- .
monwealth by the District Attorney, and for
the defense by Mr. Panics. The verdict was '
guilty as to "Hawker and (.licauff. The

, horse from the pasture-field of Mr. Simon P.
Kline, of that neighborhood, a few weeks
i since. The animal w as afterwards recover
i ed in Hlair county. As to P.ehringer, "not
j a true bill" w as returned by the Grand Jury,
and Will w ent before a jury. The defendant, :
j who is no more than eighteen years of age, ,
and who is no typical horse-thief, wasspeed
i ily convicted. Ilis sentence was three years ,
' in the Western Penitentiary, at hard labor.
j ( ieorge Wilson, charged with fornix et cet.,
; was sentenced in" accordance with the usual
I and ancient forms.
Mrs. Eliza Martz was charged with the
i larceny of valuables to the amount of a few
; dollars. She is a lady who was kept in jail '
; several months last year, and whose evident '
unsoundness of mind then as row was and !
; is a source of trouble to her friends. Judge
j Dean reserved his decision as to. whether she !
should be sent to the county Poor House or 1
j to Dixinont. I
A man named McDade, of the neighbor
ing! of Johnstown, was found guilty of
adultery, lie will remain in the county jail
for ten months.
Albert Cox, for larceny, was tried and
found guilty, and will linger in jail for yet
two months. i
Robert Cressw ell, of White township, has
Ih-cii systematically charged with desertion
by the "former wife of his bosom during the !
hist three or four terms, to say nothing of :
terms that went lfefore. Robert is a tall. !
pale-complexioned man, with a rotundity ;
which suggests th.e absence of roast beef,
while his wife could scarcely fail to bring
down the scales at i?"o pounds. IJeing una- i
Me to buffet life's stormy waves of and by i
herself, she wants l.'oherc to help her along, (
but Robert, it seems, would rather be excused, i
The usual story was rehearsed, and the Court
held the matter over until Monday next, for
the purpose of listening to an argument to !
be advanced in favor of the deserted wife j

who. so tar as we can learn, doesn't reside perina

i drama ot "social and domestic ebul lltion are Stine-
riK-u and Waple, with the respective partners of
' their bosoms.
StiniT'H-k had made preparation.- to leave Mor

who. ttiinkinir she was to m-company her husband,

neighbor's wife, to meet him next day in Altoona.
Accord inirly on Tuesday morning. Mrs. Wnplc de
serted her husband and Iter little "suck I ing" chi Id.
and hied away on the swiftly itc ling train, to meet
tne bully" SHnerock in Altoona.
Meantime. Stincrock's w ile began to think there
was something mysterious in the movements of
certain parties, and having taken a scat in the
ears, Tuesday morning, her jealous eyes were not
long in di-'ovcring a fellow jia-scnircriii the much
despised -Mrs. Waple. who also was not slow in
recognizing her neighbor, Mrs. Stinerock. The
latter telegraphed at the next station, ordering her
goods to be det uned at Altoona. and Mrs. Waple,
thinking something was wroint with the pro

j Mi:. (m.i;(;k A. Ciiins rv, of Gallitin, was
' the owin r of a certain Glie, .-hot-pouch ami
; powder-horn. On the night of the l!:'th ult.,
, a tramp who gave the name of George
! Lcighty introduced himself upon the premi
ses of Mr. Christy and appropriated unto
; hiiiiseif the beiiipotent articles named, and
: then skipped. A warrant for I.cighty'.s ar-
rest was sworn out before 1'squire Condon,
' of Summit ville, anil entrusted to the hands
of Constable iVhcriey, of this place, for ser
i vice. loicer AVherley speedily got on the
trail ot the erimina' but, in a dense woods
in III .icki ick township, not f ir from the for
mer haunts of the celebrated Mardis gang of
counterfeiters, lost it completely and fail d
again to find it. I. cuddy meantime went
down through a complicated undergrowth
of laurel, at the rate of a mile ill three min
utes, with fragments of his garments mark
ing his progress, and might possibly have
done better but not v rv ca.sily. On the day
following the theft, Lcighty arrived in our
town and circulated' around promiscuously,
and linal!y sold the gun and shot-pouch he
had stolen to Mr. lain. I lodgers for ?Von,
which was far below their actual value, the
buyer, it being proper to add, knowing
nothing of the crooked nature of the trans
action. Tin" plunder was taken possession
of by the authorities and returned to the
rightful owner, and so Mr. Uodgers is the
only one out of pocket so far in the nff-dr.
pungent Indian weed with infinite gusto. All seem j this year as during the two p receding year". In
is, , uns commiHiity sohl lor as much as $-.m per ton.
while last year the highest price rc.1li7.cd was 00
per ton. though in not a few instances sales were
made as low as g.r per ton. As a consequence ol
this remarkable decline in price, very little broom
corn has in-en cultivated this year, aiid the general
impression is that owing to its scarcity those who
had the courage to grow it will make a nice thing
out of their venture.
Information reaches us from tho rural districts
that the chinch bug is destroying the corn, but ft
is to be hoped they won't get away with very much
of it. Meantime we pious folks h'ave boon praying
for rain, ami as 1 wriie (and pray) the heavens are
opened to a slight extent ttnd the welcome rain de
scends in gratelul though not great full, showers,
with every indication, it we may judge Irom the
threatening clouds, brilliant lightning and reer
berating thunder, that enough ol that luuch-ncedcd
element to thoroughly soak the ground and at tin
same time completely circumvent the chinch buff
is about to be vouchsaled us.
W ater melons are in market by the thousands,
and are being retailed at the fruit-stands as low as
five cents each. Some of them are very large and
luscious. There are also plenty ol apples and peach
es lor sale here, but as these fruits have not panned
out well In Kansas, owing to the severo weather of
last winter, and have to be brought here from the
south, the prices demanded tor them are pretty
steep. Sweet potatoes are likewise abundant anil
in prime cond ition for the table, while Irish pota
toes are a fair crop and prices corresjioiidingly
cheap. The yield of grape" will he ei eeiingly
larije, and espi-cially true is this of wild crapes,
which are more than the usual size ami more than
the usual quantity.
It may seem strange, but it is a fact none the less,
that we pay as iiuieh here for flour as you have to
pay in theeast tor the same qua lity. a'tid perhaps
even more. For the best brand ot flour. "The Hidd
en Holt.'' we are obliged to pay :s per hundred,
while at the same time farmers receive only V1 cts.
per bushel for their wheat, which they cannot get
ground, and hence are compelled to exchange l,,r
Hour at the above figures. A not her fact to be noted
is that our mills sell flour in 1'hieago. St. I,ouis,
Itenver and elsewhere at the same prices our own
nx-rehams have to pay for it here at home.
The wheat land is in a far better condition jnst
now for receiving the scd than it has been for sev
eral years, and hence a (frent ileal more will bo
sown this season than la-t. 'onsequently every
body is lecling good over the present prospects.
The managers of the M.. K. - T. H. K. have en
gaged to be in Sal ina to-morrow or next day for tho
puriHtse ol considering projiositions to be made by
the people ot Saline and adjoining counties to in
duce them toextend tho:r road to Salina. f urcit

Tiik 1 lolliilaysbui g sinnihir'l says that a
rather good-looking young gentleman was
before tin- court of that county last week on
tin' charge of deserting his wife. lie had
nothing specially vicious about him and it
was a matter ot surprise to some that the
young man should have behaved so bndlv.
After considerable quest inning it was devel
oped that in due time after marriage the hap
py wife presented her husband with twins.
This ought to have made him proud, but it
didn't. On th' contrary it lrightened him.
1 le brooded over the thing until dark lines
of care marked his face, lie said to himself,
"If this is the way this thing is going to be
gin, how will it end." He imagined himself
a toil-worn man, vainly attempting to pro
vide clothing fur a great array of twins,
triplets, etc. The picture was too much.
He tied from the presence of his wife and
became a wanderer upon the face of the
earth. Somebody looking over our shoulder
says: ''What a pity he didn't think of the
twins before lie married !" Sure enough.

It is an open secret that our amiable

married this (Thursday) afternoon to Miss
Anna K. Miryock. daughter of John K. Shrv
ock, Esq., of Wilmore, and that Kev. J. J.
Kerr is to he the officiating clergyman. It
is needless tosay that the happy young couple
have our hearly good wishes," as we shall

A great deal of excitement was created
here this (Thursday) morning by the report
that Mr. John Somen iHe, a prominent and
much esteemed citizen of Susquehanna town
ship, had been shot, killed and robbed on
the public lrighway on the day previous, and
that (ne of the murderers was soon after ar
rested ; but the latest information, we are
glad to say, very effect ually disposes of the
rumor by branding it as a ialschood, which
it 110 doubt is. Were it otherw ise, the man
said to have been arrested for the foul deed
would in all probability have been brought
here and committed to jail without delay.
The celebrated Mardis gang of counter
feiters have been tinder a cloud for several
months past. Their haunts are known to
certain detectives, who bide their time to
make a swoop which will comprehend the
entire crooked confraternity. We stated
some months since that it was known where
the dies for the iiiaiinfaeture of the base
coin were then stored, and we add that
w here they now are is not a matter of con
jecture. A one-time member of the gang,
who was sworn into full fellowship with ,
Mardis nnd the rest, seems to be in full ac
cord with the detectives. In a later iue of
the I i!KtMN we hope o be able to chroni
cle, not only the arrest of Mardis ,vr Co., but
t.ie names of their passive companions in
crime, q he.se names, we are assured, will
be fammar to the people of Cambria, Indi- '
ana, leartield, Klair, and several other '
tolilitiys.
at '1 o'clock, r. m. It is understood that a
mot ion condemning the present Court House,
and of course looking to the erection of a
new one, was presented to said body, but it
received only six votes out of the full panel.
Another motion for the erection of an addi
tion to the building was also voted down.
We ought to have a new Court Mouse, and
must and will eventually have one if the
wishes of the taxpayers and the honor of our
county are ever to be consulted: but this
Grand Jul y, notwithstanding the fact that it
was complimented by Judge Dean for its
rapid and satisfactory transaction of eusi
ticss, seems not to have bet-n educated up to
the proper standard on this momentous sub
ject. '1 his done, the civil list was continued,
and, at ti. 10 o'clock, Court adjourned for the

beginning at 1 o'clock and completing the
task at 7 o'clock, p. M. The grain was thresh

the united efforts of five horses to run the
machine. The men engaged in the work
were completely exhausted in the effort, it
being a fact especially notieeal.de that Mr.

unprecedented here or elsewhere.

to be something romantic In the life ol a miller as
he tips nu'.ctly around among.-t the ev. r busy ma
cliincrv. plentifully bcduste.i with tlotirin common
with everything else c.rouud. Hesides. the click-
ing. ever i.usv IP. ur-mill always stands in a se.-lu-i
ib il spot near the bank of some "flowing river."
whose calm laj.se and rippling murmcrs induce
! thoiightlul iii'isings. The life ol a miller must be
' a Imppv one when he has 110 other nmbition thah
: to live by the iiiict mill. Away from the tumult
1 ol the worid. he euioys peace and plenty and con
! stant employment. Again we say, a miller must
: lead a happv Pie.
' tieorue Krise settled in near the present site of
t'hest Springs in the year lso.i. That enterprising
borough was not thought ol in those days, lor the
most of that region was then a forest wilderness.
It is wonderful what industry and enterprise will
, necoinpli.-h when directed by wisdom and economy.
.Men here started iu among-t those wilds and
, amassed a fortune from the propcrdi-posai of the
1 pi ne forest hi: h stood ail around, oilcring wealt h
, to him w ho had wisdom, industry and perseverance
i enough to carry on the herculean labors of the task
I before him. The log cam., the saw mill and the
I shingle mill transformed the pine wilderness into
a livelv scene of industry, and supplied the con
stant demand ol the outs"ide world lor those most
essential ad.iuncts of architecture, lumber and
- shingles. A hcrever a pine forest exists there is
i only needed a corps of li-. ely lumbermen, a saw
mill and a shingle machine in order to transform
i the natural material tnrnished all ready by the
: ever creating hand 01 Providence, intw most neces
, sary and always in dctna ml building material. All
' over this broad land, wherever the Indispensable
: pir.e tree nourishes, there we have through the
live hum day the buzzing drone of the great circu
! lar saw. tcartnir its way with the might of a lain
j dred men through the huge log, while the ipiiek.
1 sharp sounds ol the lath machine accompanies it
. like the rhythnical pulsation in mnsie. There is no
. healthier "occupation than the ma nil lact uic of
j lumber, for the pungent and wholesome aroma of
the fresh-sawed timber render a man n tough as a
j 'pine-Knot." Whoever saw a sickly lumberman,
; or one who could not eat his dinner? 1 would nd
i vise the dyspeptic sedentary, or the plethoric mil
j llonairc, to run a shingle machine lor a year, and
i if he don't come out with an appetite like a saw
' mill. I will say there is no virtue in physic. Some
i will doubtless" deem this advice Impertinent, but
' rash judgment sometimes comes Irom an over-csti-
mation ol our own Importance.
! Hut to resume, llenrv, Stephen and John Krise.
f sons of the alovc mentioned fc.nre Krise. set tied
1 In on the old Philipsburg road, between the place
; of John Nagle. jr.. and St. Augustine. David and
1 Valentino Kriso also settled in the vicinity ot St.
1 Augustine and lent their aid in clearing out the
I wilderness in that region. St. Augustine, it is
i proper to say. is a quiet inland village we nt.-an
1 not sit.tated on a railroad atttt eleven miles
; north of l.retto. in '"learlieb! toWcship. on the old
Phllip-burg road. A Cut holic church and parson
age on the hiM are exponents, of the religion of the
, people, as no other chun h editice ests m the vi
cinity. A public school flourishes ju the neighbor
hood of the church, while n public house, two stores.
, a blacksinit 1: shop an-l n wheelwright sicip.togi-th-,
erwith a couple ot offices for the "healing of the
f people," find'a poat-oliiee. constitute the ft'-incss
j ol the 1 illage. It is altogether- r-uiet nnd liome
! like little hamlet. There is a thrifty and peaceful
b.ae about tiie j-hci-j wl i- ii speaks well f,.r the
J chara-t.-r aci industry of the in-' e.Wr. and the
