    THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C.
THE GLOBE.
Huntingdon, Wednesday, Nov. 16, 1859
LOCAL 80 PERSONAL.
goEr. Prof. Coyle's Concert met with un
bounded success-last night. The Hall was lit
erally jammed with one of the most intelligent
and appreciative audiences Huntingdon can
boast of. The ladies (dear creatures) excelled
anything we have yet heard eminate from
their kind in this place. Those who did not
attend last night, should not fail to be pres
ent to-night. They are assisted by the Con
tinentals.
MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.—On Friday morn
ing last ex-Sheriff Greenland met with a sad
and melancholy accident, which might have
resulted in his death. He was returning
home from this place in a buggy, accompa
nied by his daughter, Mrs. John Black, and
when about four miles from here, his horse
took fright, caused by the buggy wheel corn
ing in contact with a log lying in the road,
and started off at full speed. The Sheriff
held on to the reins until the buggy came
against a small bridge crossing the road,
(known to the country people as a " corduroy
bridge," from the fact of it being made of
round pieces of timber,) and there being an
offset, the sudden jolt threw the Sheriff out,
causing his overcoat to become entangled in
the wheels. He was dragged a considerable
distance, causing him to be mutilated in a
horrible manner, but, fortunately, no bones
were broken. He was taken up insensible,
by a man near by, and carried to a neighbor's
house, where medical aid was summoned and
his wounds dressed. He remained insensible
until sometime the next day, when he be
came conscious of what had happened to him.
Strange as it may appear, the lady remained
in the buggy, holding on to the child she car
ried in her arms, until the horse had run
about a mile at " break-neck" speed. On
going up a hill be became tired, and slack
ened his pace to a walk, when the lady jump
ed out of the back part of the buggy with
the child in her arms, thus escaping unin
jured. She had hardly got out before the
horse again started off at full speed, breaking
the buggy all to pieces. She deserves credit
for the presence of mind she maintained, in
not jumping out when the horse was running
as it might have resulted in the death of both
her and the child.
The Sheriff was brouaht to town on Sun
day. and is now lying at the residence of his
son-in-law, J. Simpson Africa, and we are
pleased to learn that he is recovering slowly.
DENTISTRY.-Our whole-souled, clever and
obliging friend, Dr. R. Allison Miller, is al-
Ways prepared and ready to. extract, fill, cr
insert new teeth, on the most reasonable
terms, and on the shortest possible notice.—
The Dr. can't be beat extracting or filling
teeth, as we can testify, having experienced
the operation of both, a short time since, at
his hands. If any of our friends want any
thing done in his line, we would advise them
to favor the Dr. with a call, as he does his
work right, and his charges are moderate.—
His office is in the brick row opposite the
Court House.
BROKE JAlL.—Theodore Goodrich, a pris
oner awaiting his trial for the larceny of a
watch, scaled the wall of the jail on Wednes
day evening last. He was in the yard cut
ting wood, and the idea striking him he had
been in "durance vile" long enough, he made
a rope out of a comfort, and attaching one
end of it to the bars of the upper window, he
climbed up on to the roof, and from thence to
the wall, making good his escape. The Slim:-
iff offers . $4O for his delivery at the jail, or
$25 for any information which may lead to
his arrest.
" STIAKSPEARE AND HIS FRIENDS."-Th is
large and magnificent engraving is furnished
to subscribers to the Cosmopolitan Art Asso
ciation, for the sixth year, for the small sum
of three dollars. The beautiful Art Journal
is also sent to subscribers without any addi
tional charge. Then the subscriber has a
chance to receive something in addition worth
hundreds of dollars. See advertisement in
another column, and call on Mr. Jno. J. Law
rence, Honorary Secretary, at the Broad Top
Station, for further particulars, who will take
pleasure in exhibiting the fine engraving.
NEW SCHEDULES.—The Pennsylvania Cen
tral and Broad Top Railroads, changed sched
ules on Monday last. The Broad Top pas
senger train leaves this place at 7.40 A. M.,
and returns at 12.34. Leaves again at 4.00
P. M., and returns 'at 8.16. 'The Pennsyl
vania Central trains arrive as follows : West
—Express, 6.56 A. M.; Fast Line, 7.30 P.M.;
Mail, 5:49 P. M. East—Express, 11.00 P.

Ber Dr.' R. Shelton Mackenzie, literary
editor of The Press, will lecture before the
Standing-Stone Literary Association, to-mor
row evening, in - the Court
_House. All who
wish to enjoy a literary feast, should not
fail to attend. Dr. Mackenzie is one of the
most learned men of the age, and as a lec
turer, has few superiors. Don't fail to at
tend, if you do not wish to deprive yourself
of a feast rarely offered in this place.
Seer The " Home String Band" is bound
to have a. crowded house the night of the con
cert. They make sweet, music, and deserve
abbe patronized. The ladies, too, who are
to assist them, can not fail to attract a crowd.
They are deserving of much. praise and suc
cess:- •
THE NEW OYSTER SALOON.-Mr. G. Ash.
Miller has fitted up in good style the large
hall over his store for the accommodation, of
friends, the ladies in particular. Peter, the
polite and accommodating Peter, is there, and
keeps every thing in good trim. Give the
new Saloon a call and try the Oysters—you
may expect the best, with fixins to suit.
To CORRESPONDENTS.—We hope our friends
will mail their correspondence so that we may
receive them no later than Monday, as we go
to press on Tuesday afternoon. We would
be pleased to receive local news from every
town and township in the county regularly
every week, or as often as it might be conve
nient for some friend in each to report to us.
TIIANKSGIVING.—To-morrow week is the
day set apart by the Governor of this Com
monwealth, as a day of praise and Thanks
giving, and we hope our citizens will regard
it as such. Surely, we can afford one day in
the year for a duty of this kind, and there
fore, we trust it will be observed by our mer
chants and business men generally.

LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE
ALEXANDRIA, Nov. 7, 1859.
Mx. LEWIS :-If I am not mistaken, Alex
andria has not been represented in the col
umns of your paper for some time. Howev
er, we would not wish you to infer from this
that her citizens are incompetant of employing
their pens on matters pertinent to the col
umns of a modern paper. But the true cause
may probably be attributed to their being of
that modest and retired disposition, so peculiar
to a great people.
Alexandria, though not very large, still
ranks next in size to Huntingdon, in the
coun, and in regard to its situation for nat
ural Leauty, it cannot be surpassed. But
the disadvantages of not having a Railroad,
is a great obstacle as regards the business of
the place—the nearest station being Peters
burg, a distance of three miles.
The people here, are generally sociable,
sober, moral, and democratic.
There are three schools in operation here
at present ; the advanced school being in
charge of Mr. McKibben, who is a gentle
man of superior qualifications, and very suc
cessful as a teacher.
Gen. R. C. McGill, of this place, was bad
ly, though perhaps not dangerously injured,
by being thrown from a wagon, on Saturday
last. His wounds were examined and dres
sed by Dr. G. W. riewit. We learn that he
had two of his ribs and shoulder bone bro
ken.
Some of the ridges in our vicinity, have
been on fire for several days, and the coun
try all around, has a smoky appearance,
either the effect of the fire, or else it is "
In
jin" summer, the time for "apple butter bil
ins" and " corn-huskins."
The ladies of this place, are well deserving
of notice for the worthy zeal they evince in
charitable objects, and which they are now
manifesting in the missionary cause, than
which they could not have a subject more
worthy of their benevolence.
Locals being scarce, you will excuse brevi
ty. But should anything occur to interrupt
the even tenor of our ways, you may expect
to hear again from PETER.
From Charlestown, Va
BALTIMORE, Nov. 13.—Considerable excite
ment still prevails at Charlestown. The
Mayor has issued a proclamation appointing
a committee to look after strangers and
bring them before the Justice of Peace. Mr.
Hoyt and Mr. Jewell, the latter the Leslie
artist, received notice from Col. Taylor that
they were not safe, and accordingly left, ar
riving here to-day. Mr. Jewell was accused
of being the correspondent of the New York
Trilnuie, whose letters have caused consider
able ill-feeling.
SHOCKING DEATH.—We learn from the
Middletown Journal that a young man named
George Bower, formerly of that place, died
very suddenly, at Hummelstown, on Wed
nesday. It appears he bad a very large wart
on one of his hands, and wits induced, by some
one, to cut it out, and apply arsenic to de
stroy the roots. He Applied the poison on
Monday, after having cut out the wart. The
cut being very deep, the poison communica
ted with the leading arteries, and be was
thereby poisoned.—Harrisburg Telegraph.

ANOTHER TRIUMPH!
fal
Philadelphia, Sept. 29, 1859.
TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE PENNSYLVANIA AGRICULTURAL
SOCIETY:—The subscribers, your committee to examine the
contents of a Salamander Safe, of Evans & Watson, after
being exposed to a strong fire on the Fair Grounds for eight
hours, respectfully represent—
That after seven cords of oak wood and three of pine
had been consumed around the Safe, it was opened in the
presence of the committee, and the contents taken out, a
little warmed, but not even scorched.
Several Silver Medals heretofore received by the manu
facturers, and a large quantity of documents were in the
Safe, and came out entirely uninjured.
The experiment satisfied us of the capacity of Safes of
this kind to protect contents from any fire to which they
may be exposed.
The Committee awarded a Diploma and. Silver Medal.

WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 17, 1859.—Messrs. EVANS & WAT
SON, Philadelphia.
Gentlemen:—Tho Salamander Fire-Proof Safo of your
manufacture, purchased by us from your Agent, Ferris &
Garrett, of our city, some nine months ago, was severely
tried by burglars last Saturday night, and although they
had a sledge hammer, cold chisels, drill and gunpowder,
they did not succeed in opening the Safe. The lock being
one of " Hall's Patent Powder-proof," they could not get
the powder into it, but drilled a hole in the lower panel
and forced in a large charge, -which was ignited, and al
though the door, inside and out, showed the explosion not
to have beer. a small one, it was not forced open. We sup
pose they were the greater part of the night at work on
it. We are much gratified at the result of the attempt to
enter it, and if the above facts are of any service, you are
at liberty to use them. Yours, truly,
BAYNARD & JONES.
GREAT FIRE I—ANOTHER TRIUMPH!!
KNoxvusx, Tennessee, March 13th, 1859.
Messrs. EVANS ,t; 'WATSON, Philadelphia:
Gentlemen—lt affords me great pleasure to say to you
that the Salamander Safe which I purchased of you in
February, 1858, proved to bo what you recommended it—
a sure protection from fire. My storehouse, together with
several others, was burned to the ground in March last.—
The Safe fell through into the cellar, and was exposed to
intense heat for six or eight hours, and when It was taken
from the ruins and opened, all its contents where found to
be in a perfect state, the books and the papers not being
injured any whatever. I can cheerfully recommend your
Sates to the community, believing, as I do, that they are
as near fire-proof as it is possible for any Safe to be made.

SUCCESS COMPLETE!
JUST ISSUED, THE FOURTH EDITION OF
GROBE'S NEW METHOD FOR THE PIANO
Opus 1100.
OM
Bound in cloth ' 3 00 nett.
- Bulletin of testimonials in favor of this unique work,
which has already attained an unprecedented popularity.
From "The Musical Review," New York.
Wertmust confess that we are naturally not very favora
bly ificlided to rieW methods for the piano. We have had
so many instructions during the last twenty years, that
we really think mankind ought, at least, to know how to
play the piano-forte. However,
Mr. Grobe's book has
somewhat altered our mind. It offers really something
new, containing some truth NN e have not met with until
now in any other method. It adheres for once to the prin
ciple, "Tangos BEFORE mons." He justly says, 'Thei:saiity
(playing) should come first, and the things whichTElong
to notation should follow' This is excellent. This is just.
This is true and natural. The whole system is based upon
this principle—always with special regard to the primary
instruction in the art of playing the piano. It is for this
reason that such matters as belong to a more advanced pe
riod in the player's art are excluded, and will follow in
another book. The music in the book practically illus
trates the principle of the author. The whole is to the
point, and will be found extremely useful."
From "The Musical World," New York.
"First, we find a very sensible preface, in the course of
which a list is given of the most distinguished of his pre
decessors in the book-making and piano-teaching profes
sion—the date of their birth and death being not forgot
ten. Mr. Grobe is doubtless better posted in the matter
of musical biography than , any other musical man. We
find, next, some excellent advice to teachers, which we
should like to transcribe to our columns, had we space.—
Mr. Grobe's admirable book is, on the whole, heartily to
be recommended to the musical public.
From "The Daily Picayune," New Orleans.
"Mr. Grobe stands very high as a professor and teacher,
and composer for the piano. The book he now gives to the
public bears upon its face, to every experienced and prac
tised eye, conviction that there is a valuable addition to
the rudimentary musical lore of the country and the
world. A better primary instructor in the art, and espe
cially in the science of piano-playing, has never before
been published."
From "The Public Ledger," Philadelphia.
"Lee & Walker have published Professor Charles Grobe's
New Method for the Piano, which is one of the best ele
mentary works upon the subject extant. Mr. Grobe is a
thorough master of his subject, and he leads the pupils
pleasantly through the task, by making it clear, simple,
progressive and practical."
Copies will be sent by mail, free of postage, on the re
ceipt of the marked price.
