Huntingdon, Wednesday, Aug. 24, 1859.
LOCAL & PERSONAL.
Glass FACTORY.—We learn there is a. move
ment on foot by some of the monied men of
this place, for the erection of a glass factory.
A gentleman who understands the business,
has been sent for to select a suitable site
to erect a building, and now all that is want
ing, is a proper spirit to proceed with it.—
We have sufficient evidence that a glass fac
tory would pay here, from the fact that sand
is plenty, water in abundance, the facilities
for everything that may be necessary, in large
quantities, if not, the facilities for transport
ing them here could not be better. The ac
cess to a ready market could not be more de
veloped, and why should we not have a glass
factory, in the face of al•l this? It would
give life and spirit to Huntingdon, and bring
a large trade here, which is, and would oth
wise be taken to other markets. We know
of no other place in Pennsylvania, more suit
able for a factory of this kind, than just here.
We hope to see the project now on foot, car
ried into execution. With all the advan
tages at hand, we cannot, for our part, see
Why it could not be made a'paying concern.
We hope the right kind of men will take •
hold of this matter and put it right through.
The men we hear named in connection with
the enterprise ,are, lye think, men of spirit
and energy, and should they once take the
matter in hand, will not let it sink into ob
livion, there to. rest, and be talked of as
things that were. We expect to hear some
thing more of this, and as we learn, we will
endeavor to enlighten the public. Are we
to have a glass factory in this place ? We
wait a reply.
We beg leave to call attention once
more, to a nuisance we have mentioned fifty
times before, but which has never, as yet,
been abated. On last Sunday evening, we
made it our business to look round some, and
during our perambulations, we visited the
neighborhood of several of our churches, and
as is customary, the usual quantity of loafers
were sitting on the church steps, some stand
ing, &c., all busily engaged in discussing
some topic of vast importance, no doubt,
while the 4pinister was preaching within, the
door standing wide open, thus annoying the
whole congregation. We found this tolera
ted more largely at the Baptist Church, than
at any of the others. We don't mean to of
fend any one; it is the plain truth, and not
only for our own sake do we wish the nui
sance to be abated, but for the sake of the differ
ent congregations, as well as the character
and morals of our town. It can be and should
be stopped. Think of it, you sober minded
and religiously inclined-people, and consider
whether or not, such things should be tolera
ted. We are well aware we receive no thanks
for noticing such things, but as a reporter.
we consider it our duty to do so; however,
with this, we dismiss the subject from our
columns, as well as several other nuisances
we have been in the habit of calling attention
to, and shall not trouble our readers any
more on the same issues. If the 'people will
not help us in the cause, we will save time
and trouble by not writing about such heath-
en►em.
THE TRUE SYSTEM OF ADVERTISING.—One
of our exchanges discusses a question of in
terest to business men, as to the method of
advertising. The merits of circulars, bills,
&c., are conceded, but it is held that the
" handbill, to be conveyed about by men, or
to be sent into the country is not the best
vehicle for advertising for merchants. Let
them use the newspaper. The newspaper
is circulated without any expense whatever
to the advertiser, which is by no means an
unimportant item, as every one will testify
who has had any experience in distributing
his own advertisements. Not only is the ad
vertisement circulated by the newspaper free
of all expense, but it is done more speedily
and thoroughly than it can be done by the
advertiser. The newspaper is already an es
tablished system]] ; a thousand doors are open
ed to welcome it; a thousand messengers are
daily and weekly seeking the post office to
receive it; a thousand families look for its
coming, and a thousand read it when it does
come. Again, those who read the newspapers
are the very persons the advertiser -,vishes
to reach ; they are the intelligent and well
to-do, the enterprising citizens of a country,
and are, therefore, the most likely to buy
that which is worth buying."
A TRUE SNAIX STORY.—One day last week,
while Mr. James Watson, of Walker town
ship, was ploughing in one of his fields, he
turned up four nests of snakes, which con
tained, in all, ninety-two live snakes, of differ
ent kinds, besides several others, scattered
here and there over the field, all of which he
killed. This "snail" story is strictly true,
for it comes from a man whose veracity
cannot be doubted. If any of our cotempo
raries can beat it, we would like to hear from
them.
COLORED CAMP MEETING.-OUT colored
brethren have changed the place of holding
their annual camp meeting, from that an
nounced last week. It will be held along
Crooked Creek, a short distance the other side
of Mr. Thomas McCahan's residence. It will
commence at the time already stated, on Fri
day, the 2d day of September. We expect
the camp will attract a large crowd here.
4EII - One morning last week, while the
passenger train was stopping at this place, a
little boy about eight years old, the son of
Mr. Freeman, Auctioneer, of Philadelphia,
got out, and when the cars started was left
behind. His father did not . miss him, it
seems, until sometime after. Some persons
who took an interest in the little fellow, asked
him several questions, by means of which,
they found out where he lived, his name &c.,
and telegraphed to his father at Spruce Creek.
He telegraphed back, and told them to send
the boy on to Philadelphia in the nine o'clock
train, the father still continuing his journey
to Pittsburgh, to which place both had star
ted for, from Philadelphia. When the nine
o'clock train Eastward arrived, the boy was
put on, but absolutely refused to go. He
screamed like a madman, got off the train,
and it left without him. We learh that he
went up to Mr. Cresswell's, at Petersburg,
where he remained till Monday last, when
he was taken home to Philadelphia. Mr.
Cresswell is an old acquaintance of the boy's
father, and the boy promises to be a fasj
b'hoy, or we are no judge a of spoiled juvenile.
WRITING FOR THE PRESS.--There is no class
of people, says the Printers News Letter, more
frequently sneered at than editors. It is the
easiest thing in the world to charge them
with being mercenary ; to say that such and
such an article was paid for ; that anybody
can have anything praised or abused in the
paper, if he will pay for it; and, says a wise
acre, every now and then, "If I had a news
paper here, wouldn't I pitch into this or that,
and wouldn't I show the people what an in
dependent paper is ?" Well, my friend and
pitcher, why not establish a paper and "pitch
into everything and everybody ?" Nobody
can object to your doing so. The papers that
are in the habit of pitching into everything
are the easiest edited in the world. It is
only well practied and matured editors that
possess that wisdom and true independence
which consists in refusing to "pitch in ;" that
manliness which can withstand a public
clamor, that can scorn personalities, and that
can treat public questions with the dignity
and soberness that can alone secure respect
for the press.
A PLEASANT RIDE.—On Monday evening
last, our good looking and good natured friend,
Major Garrettson, treated us to one of the
most pleasant carriage rides we have bad for
many a long day. We started from thisplace
at half past five o'clock in the evening, for
the Warm Springs, and arrived there at half
past six. We amused ourselves for a short
time at rolling ten-pins, and, by the way, the
Major is too much for us. In other words,
he beat us all hollow. We found Col. Herd,
proprietor of the Springs, as clever and gen
tlemanly as ever. At five minutes before
seven, we started for home, and were just
forty minutes on the road. Fast traveling
that—five miles over a rough road in forty
minutes. The Major's horse, however, is
some on a go. If we were a laly? we would
be for setting our cap for the Major, certain.
It would be so nice riding behind such a
pretty horse and in such a nice carriage.—
What you dink Major, eh ?
FEVER AND AGUE.—The season is aproach
ing when fever and ague makes its annual
visit. The hot mid-day sun and 'cool even
ings of early autumn generally cause more
or less fever and ague in the most healthy
; and as the disease is sure to be at
hand, it is iniportanfr that a remedy should
be known. In this connection we give the
following, which is pronounced an unfailing
cure ; and being simple and harmless, we
hope those' attacked will not hesitate to try
Just before the chill comes on, have a
pot of very strong coffee made and keep it
hot, and when the first chill is felt, pour out
about a pint and squeeze the juice of a couple
of lemons into it, and a little sugar to make
it palatable, drink it off, go to bed and cover
up warm. One trial of this often cures,
whilst two or three trials never fail."
ELDERBERRY WINE.—As the season for
making Elderberry Wine is at hand, we give
the following recipe for making it : The ber
ries, when ripe, are first picked by the stems,
then stripped with the hand, or trimmed close
with shears. Next they are mashed fine,
which can be done by means of a stick in the
form of a pestle. Let them remain until the
next day, when the juice-is pressed out slow
ly in a cheese press, or any other convenient
way. Next boil the juice "twenty minutes ;"
skim it, and add four pounds of white sugar
to a gallon. When milk warm add a small
piece of white bread crust that has been dip
ped in yeast. Let it stand three days, re
move the crust, and the wine is ready for bot
tling. Age improves it.
ktEr• Last week Mr. Hiram Johnston left
with us a very fine head of cabbage, grown
in his garden, for which he has our thanks.
Now is the season for those who have large
vegetables, to pull a few of the best and leave
them at the Globe office, where they will be
taken care of until called for by—our better
half.
)fiee3`"A concert was given in the Court
House on Friday evening last, by Prof. G.
H. Brooks, a graduate of the Philadelphia
Institute for the Blind. We did not attend,
but learn that he performed well on the piano
and melodeon, as well as the violin, and his
talent for vocal music of the first stamp.

evening, August 24, by Frank Johnston's
Brass and String Band, of Philadelphia.
LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE
Mn. EDITOR :—having been one of the fa
vored guests at a Sabbath School Celebration,
Dear McOonnellstown, on Saturday last, I
feel that the happy occasion deserves a no•
tice at my hands. On arriving at the Mc-
Connellstown R. R. Station, we observed that
in the adjacent grove, extensive preparations
had been made for the occasion. A large
number of persons were already on the ground;
but now in the direction of McConnellstown
we heard the sound of the life stirring drum,
and soon' our eyes were greeted with a scene
which did our hearts good to behold. The
children, teachers and officers of three Sab
bath Schools, many of whose dresses were
snow white, all in well formed procession,
with their beautiful banners floating in the
breeze,_ presented a. spectacle which all lovers
of Sabbath Schools need but see, to admire
and enjoy.' It reminded us of the scene that
was spread out before Balaam, when he was
led to exclaim " How goodly are thy tents, 0
Jacob !" "Blessed is he that blesseth thee
&c !"
In due time all were comfortably seated in
one of nature's shady bowers, and the -pro
gramme for the day, announced by our es
teemed friend, Milton 11. Sangree. The ex
ercises were then opened with prayer, by
Rev. S. H. Reid, and after the singing of a
hymn, brief but appropriate addresses were
delivered by Rev. S. H. Reid, Rev. S. B.
Reed, and Mr. W. 11. H. Snyder. Noon hav
ing now arrived, our attention was very
agreeably directed to a table about two hun
dred feet in length, which literally groaned
under its weight of the necessaries and lux
uries of life, furnished and prepared by the
generous-hearted ladies in the vicinity of the
veral schools participating. The scholars
were, of course, served first, and we waited
patiently till our time came, having been as
sured by the worthy Reverend, that the bask
ets under the table were yet full, and await
ing our approach. After partaking• of a most
bountiful repast, all being again called to
gether, we had the pleasure of listening to
short extemporaneous addresses from our
townsmen, Messrs. H. T. White and A. L.
Grim. Toasts were then read, a hymn sung,
and the exercises closed with benediction.—
After which the scholars were placed in pro
cession en route for McConnellstown. Many
teachers and others, however, remained in
the grove for some hours, when they had "
good time generally." We are aware of the
labor incident to getting up such a Sabbath
School Celebration, but we think the encour
agement and consequent impetus which it
gives to the glorious Sabbath School cause,
repays ten fold, for all the labor and trouble.
My time and your space will not allow of
an extended notice of the addresses by the
gentlemen named, but suffice it to say they
were all appropriate and entertaining—and
without any desire to be partial, I must say
that the one delivered by our young friend
Snyder, reflects much credit on one of his age.
We predict for him a bright future. B. A. J.
RELIGIOUS STATISTICS.—The New York
Examiner says that there are in the United
States 590 Baptist associations, 12,163 church
es, 7,590 ordained ministers, 1,035 licentiates,
992,6 a communicants, and that the nuilrapc.V
baptized in 1858 was 98,508. Those are fig
ures for which entire accuracy can not be
claimed, but they are snore likely to be too
low than two high. The largest number of
Baptists reported from any one State is Vir
ginia -115,146. The largest number bap
tized in any one State is New York-10,801;
and the next largest Georgia, 7,944. There
are 33 colleges, 14 theological seminaries, 29
weekly newspapers, 16 monthlies, and 2 quar
terlies,-in the United States, that depend on
Baptists for support ; 64 new church edifices
were erected in 1858 ; 238 new churches
were constituted, and 304 ministers ordained.
There are probably some two hundred
Unitarian congregations in the United States
to enjoy the stated ministry of the Word.—
The Christian Register, of July 30, publish
es a list of sixty-six unsettled ministers of the
denomination, two-thirds of whom are in the
immediate vicinity of Boston. Of this num
ber from forty to fifty are supposed to be
waiting as candidates for settlement, while
the rest prefer to supply temporarily. Such
facts would seem to indicate that there is a
large surplus of ministers, or an alarming
fastidiousness in the parishes.

Ido not think she has had once since. My wife, though,
is somewhat induced to believe she may have had one only.
Enclosed you will find five dollars, for which you will
please forward me two boxes. I suppose you can forward
them by mail. Your compliance will oblige me. Yours

Philadelphia, April 12th, 1856.
Messrs. EvA:k.:s G WArsox—Gentlemen—lt affords us the
highest satisfaction to state to you, that owing to the very
protective qualities of two of the Salamander Safes which
we purchased of you some few months since, we saved a
large portion of our jewelry, and all our books. papers, 6:c.,
exposed to the calamitous fire in Ranstead Place, on the
morning of the 11th instant.
When we reflect that these Safes were located in the
fourth story of the building we occupied, and that they
fell subsequently into a heap of burning ruins, where the
vast concentration of heat caused the brass plates to melt,
we cannot but regard the preservation of their valuable
contents as most convincing proof of the great security
afforded by your Safes.
We shall take much pleasure in recommending them to
men of business ass sure reliance against fire.

D S GERMAN BIT-
TrAtti," the most remarkable medicine of the day, and
the many cures that have been performed with it in cases
of MYER COMPLAINT, DYSPEPSIA, NERVOUS DE
BILITY, and diseases arising from a disordered liver or
stomach, place it among the most astonishing 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
one remedy among the many advertised medicines, deser
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 arAorthitt has such an array of tes
timony to support it aillAtland's German Bitters?. Phy
sicians prescribe it, Why 'should you discard it? :Ridges,
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 eminent, take it; why should
not you! Let not your prejudice usurp your reason, to'
the everlasting injury of your health; if you arc 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 in every town and village in the
United States, Canadas, West Indies, and South America' .'
at 75 cents per bottle. See that the signature of C. M.
Jackson is on the wrapper of each bottle.
