THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C.
THE GLOBE.
Huntingdon, Wednesday, May 11, 1859
LOCAL & PERSONAL.
j*D=. Two of our dark and benighted " evil
spirits," requests us to tender their thanks
to Miss C. S., for the beautiful bouquet they re
ceived at her hands.
Vir Ice Creams and lemon ades are now
all the go. Oh I for a plunge in some vast
wilderness, or, in some mill pond, we don't
care which, so we escape the scorching rays of
Old Sol, these warm days.
Var We received last week, from Mr. Cun
ningham, a present of two fine shad, and no
questions asked. We hope his efforts to ac
commodate with the best the eastern markets
will afford, will be properly appreciated by
our citizens.
star The Mercersburg Classis of the Ger
man Reformed Church, will meet in this
place, on next Friday evening. The opening
sermon will be preached by the Rev. M. Ap
ple. Services will commence at 7i- o'clock.
The Public are respectfully invited to attend.
xtErWe have been out on the huntof locals,
but got nary line. We visited all the jus
tices' offices, and shops, and every place else
we could think of in town, but there was
none to be had, and we are just now think
ing of adopting the plan they used to in
olden times, when they were scarce of copy,
that of leaving a blank place in our paper,
for the children to write on, to amuse them
selves. Good idea, isn't it?
EXCELSIOR ICE CREAM SALomsr.—Our friend,
Wm. F. Shaw, has opened out an Ice Cream
Saloon, in the building formerly occupied
by the engineers, on the corner of Allegheny
and Smith streets, where he is prepared ev
ery evening to sorve up Ice Cream. Shaw is
a clever, whole-souled fellow, and makes
Cream that is not surpassed in town. If our
readers doubt our word, we advise them to
give Mr. Shaw a call. We give our word for
it, that we got as big a saucer and as good a
one, as can be had in this nec' o' woods, any
where. His Saloon is tastefully arranged,
and everything is in a style suited to the
taste of the most fastidious. Give the Col. a
visit.
MR. EDlTOR.—Another week has rolled
around, and I again find it is time I should
be "up and a doing," in order to be in tin:,
for your paper. Everything has went on
smoothly since my last, as far as I am inform
ed. The sun has continued to rise and set,
and the moon and stars have not failed to
give us light, after the sun has gone down
behind the western horizon, just as it always
has. As usual, I still continue to retire to
bed at night and rise early in the morning—
the cars run according to schedule time—the
merchants open and close their stores, morn
ing and evening, just as they always did—
the "Excelsior Band" still enliven our citi
zens occasionally, with their soul-stirring
music—the "Continentals" give us some of
their pretty songs, in the "we sina' hours of the
night," and last but not least, the Globe still
comes to me regular every week, as it ever
has. Long may it live, the Bald Hornet not
withstanding.
I have been round some of late. For cu
riosity's sake, I went to the trouble of count
ing the number of lager beer shops, confec
tionaries 4, - c., in our borough, -and find that
they amount, in the aggregate, to about twen
ty-five. Now, if that isn't enough for a one
horse town, I'll cave. However, every person
must live, and each one tries to live the easi
est.
Brawl Top Co a/ is in demand -"away down
East," and the boatman are busily engaged
,in transporting it hither.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company are
having ixon bridges put up all along the road
in place of the wooden ones now in use, and
on Suasday last, as I was strolling up the
railroad, I came across about twenty men, all
nt work, completing the bridge just above
town, in order to let the trains pass on Mon
day, as usual, without detention.
Politics run high in the 'ancient borough"
just at present. The opposition have about
twenty candidates seeking the nomination
for County Treasurer, and about fifteen for
'Sherlfr—fourteen of the latter will be ."disap
pinted." lam not prepared to say how many
.Sheriffs they will elect.
King James, instead of tendering me the
two Thousand., to start a Danoc.ralic paper in
town, has gone and done it, and given the
preference to another more worthy function
ary. I'm ruined. After Sacrificing principle
and everything .else, to obtain it, he (Jim)
has forsaken aneftai:id lam lost. "Oh! what
a fall, my countrymen.!"
,The refreshing showers since Monday
ast, has made the farmers of our county feel
sick. 'We all expect to be made comfortable
by the success .of our farmers. They are the
:back bone of our country.

Ex-REPORECEdi.
gr Warrior Ridge was on fire during the
whole of last week, and was very destructive
in its course, burning everything before it,
and would have been much more destructive,
had we not been favored with a shower on
Monday evening, which completely checked
the devouring element in its mad career.
Er We have received from iVdr. William
Summers, several of the latest New York and
Philadelphia weeklies—also the trial of Sick
les in pamphlet form, He also keeps for sale
the monthly magazines—all of which can be
had regularly at his news depot, near the
Post Office. " Our House" is a great insti
tution, and should be liberally supported.
Some of the young people of this place,
had a walking party on Saturday afternoon
last, and we learn they had a "high old time"
over on the ridge, the other side of the
river. This is the season for such parties,
and we are surprised that our young folks
do not take a greater interest in such sport.
Come now, wake up, and shake the lethargy
from off your shoulders, be sociable, and go
out into the country, and make yourselves
agreeable, as you ought. We don't like to
see such, a selfish disposition manifested
amongst our young people. It will neither
injure your character nor your health. Pitch
in—go it while you're young.
Tile President Eulogized for his En
dorsement of a Congressional Slave
Code
The Athens (Georgia,) Southern Banner,
of the 28th ult., contains the proceedings of a
Democratic meeting, in Clark county, Geor
gia, to appoint delegates to a State Conven
tion, and accompanies its report by a sketch
of a speech delivered by Judge - James Jack
son, the member of Congress from that dis
trict, at the meeting referred to. We have
taken from it the following extract:
"Ile (Judge Jackson) then endorsed the
President as sound on the great question of
our constitutional rights, sounder than any
man he knew at the North, holding the ex
treme Southern doctrine, THAT IF TIIE TER
RITORIAL LEGISLATURE REFUSE TO
PROTECT THE SLAVEHOLDER IN THE
TERRITORY OF THE UNION, CONGRESS
OUGHT TO DO IT. This judgment of the
President was that of an impartial mind, for
he bad but little intercourse with him at
Washington, and the President did not seem
to him to possess that cordiality of manner
which was calculated to draw the personal
affections of men to him. He—Judge Jack
son—dyrers with him, too, upon the Pacific
Railroad and the tarifi; but as a friend of the
rights of the South, he pronounced him the
soundest Northern man he had ever seen, and
his present opinions, no less than his entire
Congressional record, show it,"
This speech clearly indicates the exact po
sition of the Administration on the slavery
question, as understood and endorsed by the
Southern Democratic members of Congress
among their constituents. All the flimsy
disguises and subtle inystifications thrown
around the subject by the Northern organs of
the Administration are boldly cast aside in
the South, and the President is recommended
and supported there on the express ground of
his endorsement of Congressional action to
protect slavery in the Territories. The con
troversy in regard to a Congressional slave
code was opened by a bold declaration on the
part of Senator Brown, that the time had
gone by when men should cheat or be cheat
ed on this subject ; and now, since the Ad
ministration being solemnly and unequivo
cally eulogized before the Southern audiences
on the ground of its determined advocacy of
such a code, the antecedents of Mr. Buchan
an indicate very clearly what course he would
pursue in any contingency where antagonis
tic pledges had been made in his behalf to
the people of different sections of the Union.
A few loud threats from Southern fire-eaters
are quite sufficient to bring him trembling at
their knees in abject submission; and it is
perfectly evident that the endorsement of a
Congressional slave code forms an inflexible
feature of the policy of the present Adminis
tration, and the chief reliance upon which it
rests to commend itself to the confidence and
favor of the people of the South. Judge
Jackson speaks of the Presidential opinions
in no doubtful terms, and we cannot doubt
that he has full warrant for the statement he
has authoritatively made. It is peculiarly
significant from the fact that ho represents
the district in which Hon. Howell Cobb for
merly resided ; and the Banner, is, we be
lieve, the home organ of that gentleman.
Another feature of his speech is not un
worthy .of .attention. It wilt he seen that, not
approving of the construction of the Pacific
Railroad or the revision of the tariff, Judge
Jackson frankly avows his antagonism to the
Presidential recommedations in regard to
these measures, just as the Democratic ora
tors of nearly every Southern State are in the
habit of doing ; but there are no thunders
launched against him for this act of rebellion.
The post-masters and other Federal officials
Of his district do not dare to form a Danite
organization against him, notwithstanding
his avowed hostility to Executive doctrines.
In the address of the Administration bolters
of Illinois, to which we referred on Monday,
a failure to comply with the demands of the
President on any important subject., is pro
nounced to be treason, meriting expulsion
from the Democratic ranks. If this doctrine
is correct, there is nobody, at this moment,
in the party but James Buchanan and the
men in his official employment. If blind
obedience to every Executive ,edict is the test
of Democracy, there are not enough Demo
crats to form a single Congressional district.
The whole party is in a state of rebellion,
either on the tariff, the Pacific Railroad, the
neutrality 'laws, the purchase of Cuba, the
Utah war, the Kansas question, or the Con
gressional slave-code proposition.. A lunatic
will condemn the whole world as demented
before he will acknowledge his own insanity ;
and the eulogists of the Administration have
a similar faith, which denounces the whole
Democratic party as rebellious, rather than
admit the possibility that the President is
fallible.— Press.
ter Information has been received at Eas
ton that the body of Mr. Meagre, was found
on the 16th ult., in the Ohio river, just be
low Pittsburgh. As four hundred dollars
were found on his person, the presumption is
that he was accidently drowned.

TvIEDICAL SCIENCE.
The history of "lIOOFLAND'S GERMAN BIT
IEhS," the most remarkable medicine of the day, and
the many cures that have been performed with it in cases
of Livlgt COMPLAINT, DYSPEPSIA, NERVOUS DE
BILITY, and diseases arising from a disordered liver or
stomach, place it among the most astonishine• '' discoveries
that have taken place in the medical world. The diseases
to which these Bitters are applicable are so universal, that
there are but few of our friends who may not test their
virtues in their own families or circle of acquaintances,
and prove to their own satisfaction that there is at least
ono remedy among the many advertised medicines,d
eser
ving the public commendation. It is a fact that,in the
minds of many persons, a prejudice exists against what
are called Patent Medicines; but why should this prevent
you resorting to an article that has such an array of tes
timony to support it as Ifoofland's German Bitters? Phy
sicians prescribe it, Why should you discard it? Judges,
usually considered men of talent, have and do use it in
their own families. ;Why should you reject it? Clergy
men, and those the most ,erainent, take it; Why should
not your Let not your prejndice usurp your reason, to
the everlasting injury of your health; if you are sick, and
require a medicine, try these Bitters. -
These Bitters are prepared And sold by Dr. C. M, Jack
son, No. 418 Arch street, Philadelphia, Pa., and,by drug
gists and storekeepers ,ip every town and village in the

LATE FIRE AT DUBUQUE, lOWA,
Gents: I am reque.ted by Mr. T. A. C. Cochrane, of this
place. to say to you that on the morning of the 4th inst.,
about 3 o'clock. his store took tire. and the entire stock of
goods was destroyed. The heat became so suddenly intense
that none of the goods could possibly be saved; but Ibrtu
'lately his books and papers, which were in one of your
Champion safes, were all preserved perfectly. And well
they may be called Champion, for during the whole con
flagration there was one incessant pouring of flame direct
ly upon the safe which contained them. And still. upon
opening it, the inside was found to be scarcely warn:, while
the outside was most severely scorched. Yours truly,
N. A. McCLURE.

SOTLCE TO MILL OWNERS.
Th" e undersigned has purchased the right f Run
tingdon Lind Blair counties,' for the DIRECT' ACTION
TURBINE WATER WHEEL, Lit Timothy Apse. patented
September 20, 1550. This wheel has been successfully
introduced in all the Eastern states, and some of the 'Wes
tern, and Wherever introduced, has proven tq be the most
efficient and economical wheel for the use of water, that
,has ever been invented for Saw Mills, and driving other
machinery where there is a quick motion required.
The important features of this wheel for saw mills,
are
briefly these: Ist. It is made of cast iron, and for that
reason is much less liable to he troubled with ice, as the
cast iron generates heat much 4:nicker than the wooden
wheel, and not liable to decay. 2d. Its cheapness of con
struction and the amount of effectiVe PoWer (Maimed from
it. Id. The manner in which they are constructed, ,behig;
"unlike all other wheels for saw minis, making it evident
that they are easy of acceas under any circumstances for
repair, or imything'olse. The shoStii and wheels can be
taken out of their place without removing any part of the
plum. 4. Its great per centago of powel - tolled water
Pended, and its uniformity of percentage and power, When
the gate is but partially raised. '
This wheel claims a superiority aver tLll other water
wheels new in use for saw mina, ipasmuch as a much lar
ger per eentage is saved in the power of Propulsion, and
works equally well under either high ox low heads, and lg
a valuable power for those who find it necessary to econo
mize in water.
All further information will he,cheerCully given by the
subscriber at Potter's Mill, Centre county, Pa., who is pre
pared to put in wheels 4t, .notice and on reasonab p
terms. JOHN TODD.
