Canton, Miss., is one of tbe plague
stricken towns. We see by the America*
CJfiw* of that town, of SI ult., that James
A. Coplin, who learned the printing busi
ness in the Raroßfaa office, and who has
been business manager ef the for
some years, is one of the few heroes who
has not fled, but has enrolled his name as
one for the formation of a Howard Asso
ciation, for the relief of their fellow citi
zens stTicken down with yellow tever.
Canton, like Grenada, has been deserted
by nearly all who could get away, and Mr.
Coplin is among the few who remain. It
requires a great deal of courage to thus
face yellow Jack, and we score one in fa*
vor of James A. Coplin for bravery in the
midst of death and disease.
The meeting of the Veteran Club of
Centre county, at Pine Grove Mills, on
last Saturday, was a grand success—the
largest yet held. The weather was pli
ant, and the crowd numbered about 2600.
The town was decorated with arches, ever
greens and flags, with appropriate mottoes.
In the large woods a stand was erected
and festooned with flags and evergreens,
and in front of the stand, spanning the
middle row of seats, was a beautiful arch
of evergreen, with a fine likeness ef the
father of his country for a centre piece.
About 11 o'clock the line was formed at
the east end of town, with Mr. Fry as
Chief Marshall, and marched to the grove,
headed by one of the brass bands.
The following bands were present .• Zt
on, Bellefonte, Millheim and Pine Grove",
all which did themselves credit in dis
coursing flee music.
Arrived at the grove, tbe President of
the Club, Gen. Beaver, called tbe assem
bly to order, which was composed of tbe
beauty and chivalry of the county. After (
a fervent prayer by one of the ministers, 1
Kev. Linn delivered the address of wel
come which was full of kin Jness and good
will for the Club and audience. This was
responded to on behalf of the Club, by
Gen. Beaver, and after alluding to the pa
triotic deeds of tbe boys, and the pleasant
time in store for them duriog tbe day", as:
evidenced by the many baskets of good
things to be seen, be concluded by saying,
they bad come to eat them out, and in
tended to stay until they cl eaned them out.
(This, tho end showed, was a bigger con
tract than the Club was able for, and the
General would have been obliged to de
tail 100 men to stay a few days in order to
eat up all that the good and handsome la
dies of Pine Grove and vicinity bad pr.v
vided.)
Minutes by D. 8. Keller followed next,
then roll-call, when a recess until 2 o'clock
was announced, and tables were spread.
There was an abundance ofovery thing in
meats, cakes, pies, preserves, jams, pick
les, coflee, etc., etc., and appetites to match.
The people of Pine Grove and vicinity had
provided bountifully and by excellent ar
rangement none were missed in having a
good feast. "We were captured by Capt.
Dcnlap and Yony Hess, and quartered at
their board, and bad in consequence to re
fuse a dozen other kind invitations. We
roust say that those poople up there show
ed a whole-souled hospitality that will
long be remembered as one of the events
of Pine Grove.
At 2 p. m., the meeting was again called |
to order, and the orator of the day, Gov.
Curtin, was introduced. It is needless to
• peak of bis address, as his manner, abili
ty *and eloquence are so well knowa to our
people.
The cbolr sang Hail Columbia, in a
charming style, and the bands made the
woods resound with their strains at proper |
intervals.
There was perfect order all day—we did j
nctnoticeor bear of asingle case of drunk
enness or misconduct.
The committees were appointed for the j
next year, and Pleasant Gap fixed upon as
the next place of meeting. The Treasurer,
Col. Gregg, reported a balance of S9O in
the treasury.
Clothing cheap. A good dark auit
of Clothing at Guggenheitner A Co's for
$0 00.
Farmers, if you wish to strike the
best market for your grain, call on Mr.
Lawrence Brown, successor to Shortlidge
& Co. in coal and grain, where you will
get the highest price, and meet with fair
dealing.
Newman has a merchant tailoring
department connected with his Clothing
store, where suits will be made to order,
on short notice, and lower than elsewhere.
Sechler & Co. are constantly re
ceiving new supplies of fresh groceries,
which they are selling at yery low prices.
Their present stock cannot be excelled
either in quality or in variety. Queens
ware, stoneware, yellow and Rockingham
ware in all styles, sizes and shapes. Teas:
Young Hyson, Imperial, Gunpowder Ja
pans, Ooleng, very choice goeds, unprc
cedently low. In fine groceries their stock
is entirely complete ; canned goods, pick
les, sauces, oils, bananas, oranges, lemons,
cranberries, sardins. Our Spices are guar
anteed perfectly pure. Tobaccos and ci
gars, all of popular brands and best quali
ties.
When bran new pianos can be
bought for $125, we ought to become a mu
sical and people. This is
what the Mendelsshon riano Co., 21 East
15th Street, New York, are doing—selling
pi&noi from their factory at these prices.
The great reputation of these pianos—hav
ing been unanimously recommended for
the highest boners at the great Centennial
Exhibition—and the high character of the
company for honorable and straightfor
ward dealing, should insure for them lib
eral patronage. Their illustrated and de
scriptive catalogue, of forty odd pagea,
wiving highest testimonials of leading mu
sicians, will be mailed free to all, and all
Jaquixios by letter cheerfully answered. It

One feature oi importance was the prom- |
inence given in the school to the commit- 1
ling to memory of passages of Scripture. 1
During its history this Sabbath school j
has bad three removals. About th# year ,
ltt-.H it was taken from tb# old log school
houto to the Methodist church. In the
rear it was ramovrd to the new tchool 1
house, on the hill. In the same year, that '
building becoming too small, it was taken <
to the Presbyterian church, where iu set- .
sions are held at the present time. Dur- ,
ing the half century the attendance upon i
the school has been about the same froui !
vear to vcar. Sometimes the roll would '
I
' drop to Gfly names and then rite again to <
more than one hundred, the average being ,
eighty-five. ,
In looking over the roll the committee i
that about sixteen hundred persons 1
' have been connected with the school since :
! its organisation.
i This school has furnisbrJiicn candidates .
for the gospel ministry, nine of whom still i
j- live and are doing good service in the
Luthoran, Kcformed, Methodist and Pres
byterian churches. Several officer* of the
army have gone forth from its rank*;
. brave soldiers, whom we might almost
count by tho score, and by the side of
' tbetu, among the more distinguished, we
find the name of a Governor and of a Uni
ted States Senator.
' Among those who have labored longest,
, as teachers in tho school, are Miss Mary |
, E.Duncan, Mis* Nancy J. NV llson and <
Mrs. Margaret A, Woods, tbe latter of !
whom has carried through tbe Habbath :
School one cr two generations of young
men, who, from childhood to early roan- i
hood, have been taught by her on the Sab- i
1 bath. After a service of twenty-seven
years, she is still able to engage with vigor
i' in the work sho loves so well. I
Mr. Peler Wilson, now in his hi year, is i
doubtless the oidet superintendent in the
state, if not in the country. i
We can say with truth that if it had not
' been fur the union Sunday school move- '
nicnl, the continuance ol this school would
have been impossible. It has lived through
these years and done efficient work, be
!cause the brethren of all denominations*
have joined bands, and wrought together
inthename of tho Master. In fact this
| school has been the bond of unity, tho ono,
I object of common interest to tho whole
! neighborhood. Sabbath after Sabbath;
those who differed in politics, who differed
in the form of their religious creed, have
met together and taken sweet counsel i>e-:
' iipalh tho shadow of Christ's Cross.
For a mere complete history of tho
Spring Mills Union S. 8., we would direct
~ the reader to tho report in phamplet form,
1 contains also a record of superintendents,
' i officers arid scholars, to bo had for 10c. by
, addressing the secretary, Mr. Kvans.
•j Ex. Gov. Bigler was next introduced
' and spoke earnestly and eloquently in fa
( vor of the Sabbath school cause; the speak
.. er himself was always engaged in this
>' great and good werk, and lie believed it j
j to be one of (he mighty agencies in the es
d tahlishnienkand preservation ot good gov
f eminent and in the spread of tho gospel to
B the benighted in other lands. The gover
nor cxpreised great gratification in meel-
ing with this school a', its Semi-Cuntenni
al ;he saw around him many familiar fa
'jces, and the occasion was a pleasant one.
There was force in every word uttered by
the good old ox-governor, ani\ the closest
• attention was given by ail while ho was
" speaking. His address lasted about hall
'' an hour. lie bad come ullogethor unpre
pared, and not to make a speech, hut for
'' the love ho had for the cause, and to min
glu once more with old friends upon this
' pleasant and memorable occasion.
Kev. Shoemaker was the next speaker.
- lie dwelt in his usual happy and effective
manner upon the importance of the Bible
-< and Bible teachings, and in warm advoca
., cy of the Sabbath school cause.
Rev. Thompson next delivered a few re
. marks appropriate to tho occasion and
' which favorably impressed tho audience.
: Adjuura:u<mt lor diuuor followed. The
i grove wa* ut once dotted with cloths and
improvised tables, and all tho substantial?
' and daintic that would tempt the eye and
n , please the palate were set down In abun
dance—it was a royal i• t all around, pre
' pnrrd by the good ladies of that neighbor
hood from the abundant store with which
God ha* so graciously provided them.
1 1Through tins kindness of Mr. George Jor
, dan and Dr. Leilr.ul and their ladies we
were permitted to font upon their good
i things lu company with Rev's Fischer,
'shoemaker, Koeder, and others, and had
' i lots of other good invitations besides.
; | The Interval was i ikcn up with game*
by tbe younger oiu and pleasant social
chats by the older ones, until o'clock,
> when order was w rapped fiom the tlntui,
and our distinguish) I fellow cilixeri, Kx
" Go*. Uurtin, was inlmduced. Tho gover
nor rani he came unopected, having seen
an empty seat in Gen. Beaver's carriage
i in which Gov. Bigler tvas seated, ho could
not forego the pleatures that he fell the
occasion offered. It u a fact that every
> body likee to bear Gov. Uurtin talk. His
manner is so pleasant, hia speeches Inter
''spersed with so many (lathes of eloquence
''and often genuine wit, which make hitr.
one of the favorite orator* of this state.
The governor's add:ts was somewhat of
an historical charact :, bearing appropri
ately to the occasion and was highly in
structive, and he was listened to for half
1 an hour with breathlc-s attention-
Gen. Beaver, an arueut Sunday school
' worker, was tho nex! speaker. He advo
cated the cause warmly and earnestly as
' one of his first loves, culogiaed the happy
1 occatioft of the gut lie i ing, and left some
good solid truths and advice for the audi
' enue.
The announcement- * r Friday, Hatur
day and Sunday were made exercise*
1 continuing during th >se days
The Presbyterian church was elegantly
' decorated with evergreens arid (lowers.
It was admifted by all that this pic-nic
I was one of the most pleasant, in every re
gurJ, yet held in thiscouuty.
There were about -i candidate* upon the
ground, but they all conducted themselves
as though they had forgotton all about the
canvass and were only impressed with the
exercises of tbe occasion. \\ e take it for

I'ROTHONOTARY.
Ms. Komis: Before liominatioua art
made it is the right ami privilege of eve-
iry voter to express his views on the
| claims of the several candidates *ho
have submitted to be governed by the
"Rules of the democratic patty of Cen
tre.'' 1 find there ore eight candidate*
offered for th® office of ProthonoLtry, j
and as far as I know them, all good amL
active democrats. But as only one can
be elected for that office, seven must be
disappointed, and in making that m lec-i
tion care should be taken that none be,
jut in nomination but those well ~uaht
ied in every particular to diacliarge the 1
duties of the office with credit to theiu-i'
selves and advantage to the county, and;
should have claims on tho gratitude of j
the party —and this should be its polar j
star. NVe belieTethat I*. T, hhugerl bap' l

thonotary by the democratic fuirty atjj
this time. I*t ti eee his |x>liticml re*J'

clerkship in the patent office —he aold'l
the "letme immocra'.' 1 to the Weavers' i
to sustain democrat : men and mean- <
ures. After a vear or -o the Centre 1 Vui- 1
ocrat was solo to the Republican party, ■
thus leaving the democratic parlv of 1
Centre without an organ at tho county '
seat—no press to adv cat* and defend it--
principles for nearly two ve.irs. S. T. j
Shtigert in I CM, thcu a clerk in the |
patent office, determined that the demo
cracy of Centre should not be without at
democratic press to Mielaiu its princi
ples, and if no other mean* were proti

gan, he would procujc one ; and in Nm
vembfr IHVN, out of hi* salary as clerk
he furnished press, type, fixtures, A
which co.x h>n. in co'i —eugaged Mr. j

that office out of his own pocket for over
six months, receiving no benefit from'"
the establishment of the
NVatchman. but a loss. By an arrange- j

majority in the senate, to punish him
for his unwavering democracy, removed "
him on the most l>are-faced stxilogy. j
Mr. Shugert is somewhat udvam-ed in .
years, yet none is better qualified todis- .
charge the duties of the office. The dem- t
