LOCAL. & PERSONAL.
SUNDAY SCLIOOL CELEBRATION AT MCCON
NELLSTOWN.—On Saturday last:we made good
time in getting to McConnellstown, where
we had been informed, considerable arrange
ments had been the order of the day for sev
eral 'days, to get up a Celebration for the
amusement of the children, and the gratifi
cation of all who might he fortunate in being
present. The School met in the M. E. Church,
and after singing a hymn formed into.line,
under the command of Gen. Is. Bumgarner,
passed through the town, returned, and re
paired to the beautiful grove, near the Rail
road. Arriving on the ground, Hon. James
Steel announced the orders of the day.—
First, the assembly united in singing a hymn.
Nest; -prayerby Rev. Barnitz, of York.—
Another hymn. Then followed an address
by Rev. Barnitz, of York. Next a hymn.
Then an address by John Williamson, Esq.,
during the delivery of which, the committee
to prepare the table, removed the "kivers"
when all eyes were set in that direction. We
tried to look at the speaker, but there was no
use trying, our eyes had diScovered a roast
pig on the table—as natural as life, only a
little more so, and easier to take, so we sur
rendered to the pig. Mr. Williamson, after
he saw the good things, also surrendered,
and the assembly adjourned to the table.—
We - have seen good tables in the woods on
several occasions, but we think all who sur
rounded the table at the grove, at MeCon
nellstown, on Saturday, will agree that it was
a little more than extra—every thing of the
best, and more than could be packed down.
Mrs. Israel Bumgarner has ,the thanks of
our better-half for the large and most excel
lent cake she compelled us to carry home.
After the scholars, teachers, parents and
friends had fully enjoyed themselves in amuse
ments and social conversations for several
hours, they adjourned for their homes, to
meet again on some future happy occasion,
when-we hope we may again be counted "in
the ring."
SUNDAY SCHOOL CELEBRATION AT MARKLES
BITRG.—We had the pleasure of being present
nt this Celebration on Friday. last. The
Schools bad arrived at the grove, a' short
distance from town, before we joined them.
Dr. J. IL Wintrode took the stand and an
nounced the programme : The committee on
the table were appointed, and consisted of a
large number of ladies and gentlemen. A
hymn was then sungneit, prayer by Rev.
Barnitz, of York. H. T. White, Esq., then ‘
addressed the assembly in an appropriate
manner. Two members of the Huntingdon
Continentals being present, sung one of their
choice pieces. Rev. Bricker next addressed
the assembly, during which the committee on
the table attended to the duties assigned
them. After the close of the address the
several schools formed into line and proceed
ed to the table, where they found a full sup
ply of good things were ready and in waiting.
Of course, justice was done the table by all,
young and old, and all appeared satisfied.—
After dinner the schools again assembled in
front of the stand, and listened to an excel
lent address by Rev. Barnitz, of York, after
which the school adjourned for innocent
amusement, and they had a good time gener
ally. At an early hour in the evening the
crowd dispersed for their homes, well pleased
with the day's proceedings. We hope all
may live to enjoy similar occasions, , year
after year, for many long years.
Wily is it?—We have a noticed for year
past, that our exchanges from other counties
are more liberally patronized with Sheriff
sales than the lluntingdon papers. Is it be
cause the people of our county are more in
dustrious and less unfortunate than those of
other counties ?—or is it because our excel
lent Sheriff, Graflius Miller, helps to build
up rather than cripple the honest industry of
of an honest people? We are inclined to
believe, that what every body says must be
true, that Col. Miller has been one of the best
and most popular Sheriffs Huntingdon coun
ty has ever had—and the regret is general
that he has determined to tender his resigna
tion on the 2nd Tuesday of October next, to
go into effect in November following, in favor
of the gentleman receiving the proper en
dorsement by the people for said office. If
the gentleman to be selected by the people
should be as popular at the end of his term
as Col. Miller is, there will be but few to re
gret his success.
THE COUNTY FAIR.—The Premium List
may be found in to-day's Globe. County
pride, if nothing else, should induce the far
mers, the mechanics, and every other indus
trious calling, to give our next exhibition
their earnest and early attention. Every one
shoUld have something on exhibition, and
there are few who could not offer something
to attract attention. Every body, their rela
tions and friends, and the rest of mankind,
must " pitch in," and make our exhibition
what it should be, and can be, if all will feel
the right interest in what should interest
the whole county. We understand that Dr.
J. H. Wintrode, of Marklesburg, has been
selected to deliver the address.
THE STEAM GRIST MlLL.—Mattern & Har
rison's new Grist Mill is now in operation,
and we are informed that it works to the en
tire satisfaction of the enterprising gentle
men immediately interested.
TUE COLORED CAMP MEETING.—This "in-
stitution" has been in full blast since Friday
last. On Sunday afternoon we visited the,
ground, and as near as we could judge, there
must have been near a thousand, persons in
attendance. Hacks were running from and
returning to town every hour during the day,
and to a late hour in the night, keeping up a
thick dust and a continual confusion. The
night meetings take all our b'hoys out of town
for a few hours, giving our good citizens a
taste of that good order which might prevail
in our . midst if those in authority would but
discharge their duty. The weather permit
ting, the camp will continue until Thursday
next. The County Fair will be the next `tin-
stitution" in order.
TAKE CARE Op THE LITTLE ONES.—The
nights and mornings begin to have an au
tumnish feel that admonishes us that the
season for doffing cotton and linen, and don
ning woolen wear *ill soon be upon us. In
fact, it is time even now to dress the " little
folks" more warmly. Many a child has been
brought to an untimely grave by unreasona
ble indulgence in bare arms and low necked
dresses. Flannel is a great promoter of
health and preventer of cholera na6rbus and
dysentery—two diseases of which, according
to high medical authority, more than any
other two to which infantile flesh is heir.—
We charge nothing for the advice.
A WORD TO THE BUSS.—YOUI ng lads, as Well
,as some old enough to know better, are in the
habit of entering gardens, by night and by
day, and without permission from the owners,
carry away any kind of fruit they can lay
their hands upon—and very frequently de
stroy with their feet, vegetables of more value
than the fruit they steal. Such conduct, on
their part, may not seem to them as being
very wrong, but, if they will continue im
proving in their habi,s they will, in the course
of a few years, and themselves students at
one of the higher institutions. Boys take
warning
One day last week, a boy of this place,
was arrested and bound over to appear at
Court, for stoning a neighbor's boy, and oth
wise annoying him. We forbear mentioning
his name, on account of the respect we have
for his parents, but say it served hint right;
and hope the warning may have the effect of
opening the eyes of the boy, (if not those of
his parents,) that be may see the dreadful
results his bad conduct will lead him to, if he
does not stop.
MOUNT VERNV.—The party occupying
this ho - use for some time, for the good of the
town, have left it. Mr. John Wierley has
taken the house, and will immediately have it
fixed up in good style, and be prepared to
accommodate his, friends with the best oys
ters and other luxuries. Mount Vernon is
located immediately opposite the Jackson
Hotel on Railroad street.
EXCELSIOR.—TIie new wagon built for the
Huntingdon Excelsior Brass Band, by Mr.
Owen Boat, and ornamented by Rev. Barnitz,
is now finished, and its beauty reflects great
credit upon these two gentlemen and their
assistants. The public may expect to see the
wagon on the streets in a few days.
,C;Cy. The Sk irleysburg Herald is to be re
vived on or about the first of January next.
A prospectus has already been issued by Mr.
John Lutz the late editor and proprietor.—
The lower end cannot do without a local pa
per. The _Herald will be printed on entire
new materials.
Who don't like peach pot-pie, such as
Mrs. Martha Geissinger gets up ? Knowing
our crop of the article to be rather slim, she
was kind enongh to send us a big taste of a
genuine one, piled up on a clean plate.—

NERVOUS DISEASES CONTROLLED
AND CONQUERED.
Of all the various ills that detract from the enjoyment
of human life, most of them may be traced to a disordered
condition of the nervous system. The horrors of Epilep
sy, or Falling Sickness, arise in most cases from this cause.
Our readers may remember, on several occasions before,
we have alluded to the wonderful cures, or modifications
of Fits,
snide by the Vegetable Extract Epileptic Pills, in
vented and prepared by Dr. Seth S. Hance, of 10S Balti
more street, Baltimore, :ffd. We feel fully satisfied that
these Pills have cured some of the most subborn cases of
Epilepsy, as well as the milder forms of Fits, such us se
vere Cramps, Spasms, &c. We now record the fact, that
per,,ons will find these Pills equally efficacious in curing
every form of nervous debility ;—no matter whether man
ifested in the acute and excruciating form of Neuralgia,
Tic-Doloreux, or Nervous Headache, the misery of Dys
pepsia or Indigestion, the sufferings of Rheumatism or
Gout, the melancholly hallucination of depressed spirits
or hysteria, their effects will be equally happy and certain.
Persons in the country can write to the inventor, and
have the medicine forwarded to them by mail. The prices
are. one box, S 3; two boxes $5; twelve boxes $2l; and
sent to any part of the country, free of postage. Direct
