THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C.
THE GLOBE.
Huntingdon, Wednesday, July 20 ; 1859
LOCAL Se PERSONAL.
Losr.—A blank book of folio size with pa
per cover, containing the Minutes of the
Burgesses and Town Council of the borough
of Huntingdon, from 1796 to 1804, and the
rules for the government of the Council. It
is supposed to have been left, a few years ago,
at some place where the Council assembled.
Any information as to its whereabouts will
be very thankfully received by any of the
borough officers.
MR. EDITOR:—On Friday afternoon last, a
party of young folks, your reporter included,
visited the village of Shaeffersville, this coun
ty, and to use t commln expression, we had
a "glorious time." We were kindly received
by our friends, and after the usual salutations
were gone through with, we were invited to
partake of a sumptuous repast, which we did
ample justice too. The table groaned under
the gorgeous load of good things. After
which, we walked a short distance into the
country, to admire the beauties of nature and
of nature's - God. We passed two or three
hours very pleasantly in the village of Shaef
fersville, and for the kind attention we re-
ceived, our friends there will consider our
best beaver tipped in the most approved style.
It is no longer a matter of speculation, but
a fact beyond all doubt, that the Bald Hamel
is - bound to make its appearance before long.
I am informed that the first number will be
issued in.about two weeks. The editor has
not yet been announced, but I presume he
has already been chosen from amongst the
-faithful. It is time that it should make its
appearance, with another Brigadier General
George Washington Bowman at its head, for
the follies of the Administration are sadly in
need of help. Mr. Buchanan went to Bed
ford on Monday last, to recruit a little for the
coming winter, and to arrange Pennsylvania
politics for a twelve month. _ Expect some of
our worthy functionaries will visit the Presi
dent.
I am informed that Dr. 11. K. Neff, of this
place, is a candidate for nomination for the
Legislature, in the Opposition party. The
Dr. is a whole-souled, clever and gentlemlittty
fellow, and if the Opposition party is to be
the successful party this fall, I wish the Dr.
success. lle would make a popular Legisla
tor.
On the night of th© 13th of July, inst., as
the ten o'clock train was passing along just
°below the stone quarry, some rascal's, inspired
by the devil, took it into their heads that they
ought to throw stones through the windows
of the cars, which they did, but, fortunately,
injuring no one. The watchman was a short
distance below the party, but knew nothing
of it, until the train was stopped. He then
got on board the train, rode a short distance,
and returned by way of the turnpike, there
by meeting the scoundrels, and also recogni
zing them. Warrants were issued for the
arrest of the party, and, on Saturday last,
three of them were taken into custody, the
other three making good their escape. The
proper officer is in search of them, and I feel
pretty confident that he will succeed in cap
turing them. I have the names of the dep
redators in my possession, but forbear pub
lishing them at present, for the respect which
I have fur their parents. I say, however,
that they should be severely punished.
In the last Shirleysburg Herald, I noticed
a communication written over the sigQature
of "Flora," which speaks very disparagingly of
our town. Flora asserts that it is the "mean-
est place 'out of Jail,' " and so on. Now, I
would like to know whether Flora ever lived
any place out of Jail, as she appears to know
so much about matters and things "in jail."
She also states that you may. "go where you
like, you will see drunkenness, hear pro
fane language, or something bad." Well
it is strange that strangers passing through
our town can.see and hear all these things,
when some of our oldest citizens know noth
ing of it at all ! Strange, passing strange, in
deed. The lady must have visited all the
places of bad repute in our town, to see and
hear so much. Will she explain ?
Too TRUE.—An exchange well says, whan
a rakish youth goeS astray, friends gather
around him in order to restore him to the
path of virtue. Gentleness and kindnesg arc
lavished upon him to win him back to inno
cence and peace. No one would ever suspect
that he had sinned. But when a poor, confi
ding girt is betrayed, she receives the brand
of society, and is henceforth driven from the
ways of virtue. The betrayer is honored,
respected, esteemed—there is no peace for
her this side the grave: Society has no lov
ing, helping hand for her, no smile of peace,
no, voice of forgiveness. These are earthly
moralities unknown to heaven. There is a
deep wrong in them and fearful are the con
sequences.
A GOOD MOVEMENT.—We understand that
our storekeepers have adopted the rule of clo
sing their stores at eight o'clock in the eve
ning, instead of nine or ten, as it might suit
them. This is a move in the right direction.
We only wonder that it was not thought of
before. Now, the clerks can have a little
time for recreation and exercise, instead of
being cooped up in a hot store room all eve
ning. We sanction all such movements.
ger T. P. Love has just received a fresh
lot of extra family flour.
oV:i'r- 0 A horse belonging to Mr. John Lloyd,
residing on the ridge below town, fell dead
on Monday last, after having been brought
to the stable. from worn at noon.
[For The Globe.]
HUNTINGDON, Pa., July 20, 1539.
Lewis, Esq., Editor Globe:
SIR :—lt is hoped that you will give a
place in your columns to the following
I observe that the Journal of last week,
in referring to the lecture delivered by H.
Bucher Swoope, Esq., on the evening of the
11th inst., makes use of the following lan
guage: "Me are free to say that the histori
cal' part of Mr. Swoope's suhject, was very
eloquent and decidedly the best. We thought
that we had heard it before, and on examin
ing our files we find, almost verbatim, the same
thing, in the address of Ti. McDivitt, Esq.,_be
fore the Huntingdon County Teachers' Insti
tute, December 22, '53, and published in the
Journal, February Ist, '54.
Xi% Swoope is guilty of gross plagiarism and
literary theft."
Although Mr. Swoope's high literary char
acter is such as to demand no vindication at
my hands, when the facts are known, yet if
this broad charge is permitted to remain un
answered and -undenied, there arc those,
doubtless, who would not scruple to represent
it still as truthful, although entirely without
fo unda ti .
EX-REPORTER.
The lecture in question was hastily prepa
red by Mr. Swoope, some time in February
last, in pursuance of an invitation extended.
to him by some literary organization in Wil
liamsport. I was then in Clearfield, and re
mained in his office, (hiring almost the whole
time in which he was engaged in its prepa
ration: I know that Mr. Swoope had neither
the "Huntingdon Journal," nor any other
newspaper before him at the time, from which.
the plaigiarism referred to, could have been
committed, and I feel quite confident that Mr .
S. never knew of the existence of any such
address as that delivered by Mr. McDivitt,
before the Huntingdon County Teachers' In
stitute.
Moreover, I have examined carefully the
address of Mr. Mc. and compared it with that
of Mr. Swoope. /am compelled to state that
there is riot the slightest ground upon which, to
support the charge so broadly and so boldly
made by the "Journal." The most remote
similarity cannot be detected, farther than
that which would be unavoidable, when two
gentlemen consider the same train of circum
stances in chronological order. I believe the
gentlemen have quoted the same author in
two or three instances.
Ilai'..The following question was under dis
cussion at a place of pubiTc resort one even
ing last week:
"That it is by the help of the Devil that
certain men are Democrats."
We propose the following:
If the Devil influences men to be Demo
crats, why is it that many of his best friends
are found in the Opposition party ?

EPILEPSY, on PALLING FITS.
We believe we cannot do our readers a more important
service, than by again calling their attention to that most
remarkable preparation, discovered by Dr. Seth S. Hence,
of Baltimore, Md., which possesses the power of allevia
ting and curing that horrid visitation of man—Epilepsy,
or Falling Fits. In recommending this preparation to our
readers, we do so with a conviction that we are not degra
ding our columns to puff a common patent medicine, but
are placing before them adiscovery, which, if fully known,
would probably do more to alleviate human suffering,
than any invention of modern times. Dr. Hance, in ask
ing us to notice his preparation favorably in our editorial
department, has sent us for perusal a number of letters
from persons who have used his Pills, and have been cur
ed thereby. All of them speak in the most grateful and
eulogistic terms. One great advantage this medicine pos
sesses is the fact, that it can be transported through the
mails, therby affording every one an opportunity of deal
ing directly with the inventor, and also precluding all pos
sibility of being imposed on by a counterfeit or spurious
imitation. Dr. Hance pays the postage 011 his Pills to any
part of the country, and will forward them by return of
mail, on the receipt of a remittance. His prices are as Bil
lows: One box, two do., $5; twelve do., $24-. All or
ders for the medicine should be addressed to SETA S.

EY CIIIRLES CEOBE
Opus 1100.
ram
]hand iu Cloth
A good instruction book for the Piano has long been
wanting, and Mr. Charles G robe has performed the labor,
in getting this one up in a most admirable and artavfactory
manner. It will prove itself to be one of the most valua
ble guides in the instruction of the art' of playing the
Piano.
Cons Waring the author's tall 7.mmen capacity, and long
and unremitting devotion to the lasX.6f elementary teaching,
we have strong reason to hope that the public are now to
be furnished with a thorough, systematic, progressive, mud
entertaining method for the Piano.
We can confidently recommend it to teachers:lnd frapila
an better adapted to the purpos"es of elementary instruction
than any others with which we are acquainted.
The plan pursued in this work is substantially the same
as that developed in 011endortf's method of teaching lan
pines. It commences with the simplest elements. The
progress made will be gradual, so that every step will ho
pm:fixity intelligible. and be rendered of positive r •• to
the pupil. Every difficulty is met with singly, ar after
thorough analysis, overcome by practice.
This method will, undoubtedly, provide teachers with a.
melt digested, progressive, and entertaining plan by which x
sound and correct knowledge of the art of playing the
pia no May be acquired with comparatively little labor, war
in so short a space of time as will almost seem incredible
to those who have confined themselves to sonic of the
tedious systems heretofore in use.
This work contains ten engraved figures, illustrating the
different positions of the hands And fingers; and also a.
likeness of the author.
Its typographical accuracy and appearance hare never
been eri nailed in any musical work that has heretofore been
iisned from the press in this•or any other country.
Copies will be sent by mail, free of postage, on the re
ceipt of the marked price.
