    THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, Sia
THEE. GLOBE.
Huntingdon, Wednesday, Dec. 22, 1858
iter The Standing-Stone Literary Associa
tion of this place, we are pleased to announce,
propose giving a public exhibition of their
exercises, in the. Court House, on Friday
evening next. We have no doubt but that
the exhibition will come off with great eclat,
as a greater portion of • our literati are mem
bers of this association, and we expect a rare
treat in the display of eloquence and oratory,
as they will, no doubt, do their best. The
subjects selected for discussion and debate,
are of vast importance, and we presume they
will do justice to all they attempt, for we are
proud to say, that we have some pretty tal
ented young men in the " ancient borough,"
and we predict for them a bright future.—
Who knows but that Huntingdon may yet
produce a Clay or a Webster? We hope this
Association ; like all others of a similar char
acter, started in this place, may 'not .bud and
bloom for a season, like the fragile rose, and
then wither and die in the spring-time of its
youth, and be numbered with the things that
were. We are pleased to see such a spirit
manifested in our young men, and trust that
they will establish their society permanently,
that it may be handed down from generation
to generation yet to come.
- MERRY CHRISTMAS.—Before another number
of our paper will be issued, the Christmas of
3.858, will be numbered among the days gone
by, and as this is the last opportunity we will
have, of talking to many of our readers be
fore that time, we will wish them, one and
all, a merry Christmas. Christmas comes
but once a year, and who does not look for
ward to the time with a fund recollection of
the past, and the scenes of former days,
wliich occur to the memory, whilst discussing
over the festivities of a Christmas dinner,
which every body delight so to partake of,
not only because the appetite craves for the
good things served up on such occasions, but
because it is customary for all to look for
ward for something good on that day. And
as the old adage says
"Christmas comes but once a year,
And whoa it comes it brings good cheer,"
we expect to see everybody and all their
friends looking as pleasant and cheerful as
the noon-day sun. No doubt many will not
have the "wherewithal" to secure many of the
dainties, they are wont to have, but we trust
they will follow our example, and be content
with what they have, and thankful for that.
RESIGNATION OF THE REV. 0. 0. MCLEAN.-
The health of the Rev. 0. 0. McClean hav
ing failed, it was deemed necessary, by his
physicians and friends, that he should sus
pend his pastoral labors, and although the
Congregation tendered him leave of absence
for six months, yet his uncertainty as to the
restoration of his health, at the end of that
time, and his unwillingness to leave the .
Church without a regular Pastor, prompted
him to tender his resignation, with the re
quest that no obstacle should be interposed
to the dissolution of the pastoral relation, by
Presbytery.
A meeting of the Congregation was held
on Monday Dec: 13, 1858, at which, after re
solving to accept his resignation, the follow
ing resolution among others, was unanimous
ly adopted.
"Resolved, That the Congregation cannot
part with Mr. McClean without expressing
their high appreciation of his talents and
ministerial labors; and they do hereby bear
testimony to his zeal for the spiritual and
temporal interests of the Church ; to his per
severing efforts to advance his Master's cause;
to his earnest solicitude for the salvation of
souls; his kind watchfulness and care over
the young, and his tender regard for the
rich and the dying, and whilst they feel
thankful that his labors here have been own
ed and blest, they trust that his health and
life may be spared for further usefulness
wheresoever Providence may call him."
,fie" We yesterday received an interesting
letter from a friend in Nebraska Territory,
which will be found in another column, and
we advise all who are anxious to seek their
fortunes in the far-off land of gold, to read
his letter, as he speaks in very flattering
terms of the yield of that precious metal,
Aye glittering gold,) at Cherry Creek, Ne
braska Territory. He also sends us a speci
men of the Cherry Creek gold, which abounds
so plentifully in the mines already worked,
and which can be seen by calling at our office.
Write often, C. A. S., your letters are very
interesting, and we will be pleased to hear
from you whenever convenient.
PRESENTS.—On Friday morning last we re
ceived by a friend, a handsome present from
,Mrs. VALENTINE CROUSE of Mill Creek, in
the shape of a pile of a variety of cakes, or
rather slices of, the cakes destroyed by a so
cial party of friends at the house of our
,kind friend the evening previous. Mrs. C.
will please accept the thanks of our house,
-who by a Unanimous vote declared her cakes
to be equal to the best ever offered for our in
spection.
Our kind friend and'neighbor, Grandmoth
er NEWtNGRAM, Will please accept our thanks
for her handsome present of sausage and pud-
ding.
Mx. T. P. LOVE, of the firm of LOVE & MC

TEE BOYS AGAIN.—We have, time and
again, noticed the conduct of some of the
" Young America" of this place until we are
tired, but to no purpose. And now, for a
week or two past, a certain class of very
small boys, congregate on the street corners
at night, who ought to be at home in bed, or
reading some useful book, and watching their
chance, coolly walk up to the door of some
peaceful and quiet citizen, and give it two or
kicks, and then run. On one occasion, we no
ticed two bright youths go up to a door, knock,
and then leave, thereby bringing the inmates
to the door. This ought_ to be stopped, and
we trust the proper officers will watch the
movements of these boys a little, and perhaps
they will be able to catch some of the young
scamps, and lodge them in jail, where they I
justly belong. We are surprised that parents
should allow their children to run the streets
at night, when they know the evil conse
quences which attend it.
CARBON TOWNSHIP TEACHERS' INSTITUTE.-
We have received the proceedings of the In
stitute held on the 10th inst., with a request
to publish, which we must respectfully de
cline to do, for two reasons : Frst, they are
not properly prepared for the compositor—
and second, they would occupy two much of
our paper. A notice of reasonable length, of
Institute meetings, will be publisheed with
pleasure—but proceedings at length would
occupy more room than we have to spare or
would be approved by our patrons.
THE CHILDREN AND CHRISTMAS.--AS Christ
mas approaches the juveniles are filled with
expectations, and their little hearts beat ju
bilant in expectation of receiving a present.
Cull at Lewis' Book Store, where you will
find o. handsome assortmeut of juvenile books.
Music.—Often while listening to the notes
warbled forth by some fair hand, from the
piano, or, perchance, the melodeon, or some
other equally charming and enchanting in
strument, a strange feeling comes over us,
which we are not fully able to explain. A
feeling of delight, as it were, feebly expressed.
Our hearts throbs within us, as the sweet
toned instrument sends forth music which in
spires the feelings of every one within hear
ing. Now a solemn dirge—then a lively air,
all made at the pleasure of the artiste, and
the genius of man. Never did the poet write
a truer adage, when he said that
"Music bath charms to soothe the savage breast,
To soften rocks, and bend the knotted oak."
A NOVEL ISVENTION.—An exchange says,
as a number of young men will persist in
grinding tobacco in Church, it is proposed to
get up a large flask, to be placed in the
breast pocket. with a funnel or tube in the
same, to receive the product of the mill,
which they carry home with them and empty
out on their mother's parlor carpet or cleanly
scrubbed floor, instead of leaving it in the
corners of the pews. We hope the invention
may be speedily got up and patented, and ev
ery store keeper in town made an agent for
its sale. Let the ladies be on the look out,
and when they observe a gentleman with a
full breasted coat, they may calculate that he
has a "hopper" in his bosom.
CHRISTMAS PRESENTS FOR THE YOUNG LA
DIES.-A handsome assortment of Annuals,
Albums, &c., can be found at Lewis' Book
Store. Young men and parents should call

It is no longer questioned that these Machines arc the

may be sent into families with no other instructions than
are contained in a circular which accompanies each ma
chine, and from which A CHILD OF TEN YEARS may
readily learn how to use them, and keep them in order.
They make upwards of Fifteen Hundred Stitches a Minute,
and will do the sewing of a family cheaper than a seam
stress can do it, even if she works at the rate of ONE CENT

Is there a husband, father, or brother iu the United
States, who will permit the drudgery of hand sewing in
his family, when a Grover & Baker Machine will do it
better, more expeditiously, and cheaper than can possibly
be done by hand?

DALLEY'S MAGICAL PAIN EX
TRACTOR.--In all diseases, inflammation, more or
less, predominates—now, to allay inflammation, strikes at
the root of disease—hence an immediate cure.
BALLET'S MAGICAL PAIN EXTRACTOR
and xornmo ELSE, will allay inflammation at once, and
make a certain cure.
DALLLY'S MAGICAL PAIN EXTRACTOR
will cure the following among a great catalogue of dis
eases:—Burns, Scalds, Cuts, Chafes, Sore Nipples, Corns,
Bunions, Bruises, Strains, Bites, Poison, Chilblains, Biles,
Scrofula, Ulcers, Fever Sores, Felons, Ear Ache, Piles, Sore
Eyes, Gout, Swellings, Rheumatism, Scald Bead, Salt
Rheum Baldness, Erysipelas, Ringworm, Barber's Itch,
Small Pox, Measles, Rash, &c., &e.
To some, it may appear incredulous that so many dis
eases should be reached by one article ; such an idea will
vanish when reflection points to the filet. that the salvo
is a combination of ingredients, each and every one apply
ing a perfect antidote to its apposite disorder.
BALLET'S MAGICAL PAIN EXTRACTOR
in its effects is magical, because the time is so short be
tween disease and a permanent cure ; and it is an extractor,
as it draws all disease out of the affected part. leaving na
tore as perfect as before the injury. It is scarcely neces
sary to say that no house, work-shop, or manufactory
should be one moment-without it.

BLACKWOOD'S BDINBURGII MAGAZINE (Tory.)
These Periodicals ably represent the three great politi

but politics form only one feature of their character. As
Organs of the most profound writers on Science, Litera

stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being considered
indispensable to the scholar and the professional man,
while to the intelligent reader of every class they furnish
a more correct and satisfactory record of the current lit

possibly obtained from any other source.
