THE GLOBE.
Huntingdon, Wednesday, Dec. 14, 1859
LOCAL & PERSONAL.
Tux NEW AssoarATE JUDGE.—The vacancy
on the Bench in the Court of this county,
occasioned by the death of Hon. John Brew
ster, one of the Associate Judges, has been
filled by the appointment, by Gov. Packer,
.of John Long, Esq., of the borough of Shir
leysburg.
We congratulate the Governor on the se
lection of Mr. Long for that position. He is
a gentleman of Sound judgment, much busi
ness experience and unbending integrity.—
That he enjoys the respect and confidence of
the people of this, his native county, is abun
dantly testified by the return of the election
of 1856, when as a candidate for the Judge
ship, he received within four votes as many
as his Republican competitor. We feel as
sured that he will discharge the duties of his
new position with honor to himself and to
the credit and dignity of the Court. This
appointment, too, is a just and proper recog
nition of the claims of the "Lower End" of
the
_county, to- a share of the official posi-
flops.

generally.

MR. EDITOR :—The poet—l- don't mean
" Ridger"—sings
" The melancholy days have come,
The saddest of the year."
But who cares, if they bring with them wed
dings and good cheer in general. Speaking
of weddings calls to memory a streak of luck
your correspondent has recently been enjoy
ing. On last Saturday we found in our box
a, neatly enveloped letter. This being a rare
occurrence, we opened the missive, and found,
traced by some gentle hand, an invitation to
attend a wedding, or rather an infair party,
at the house of our esteemed friend, Aaron
Beyer. Well we did not throw up our hat,
or attempt to lift otirSelf by our boot-Straps,
nor did we do anything else extravagant, but
simply wrote a reply, as politely as
. possible,
accepting the invitation, and promising to be
present on the day specified. On Wednes
day morning, we scraped our chin, blacked
our boots, put on our best rig, bunted up the
" calico" assigned to our care, and made our
way to the place before mentioned. Here we
met the groom, Rev. James S. Beyer, and'his
accomplished bride—formerly Miss Woolver
ton, of Cassville Seminary—and quite a num
ber of our Huntingdon county acquaintances ;
among whom were our friend Green, of the
Continentals, and the County Superintendent.
The latter gentleman obliged us, individually,
by carving a huge turkey, which had by some
means, escaped on "the Governor's Sunday."
The dinner did honor to those who provided
it, and the guests (speaking front experience)
did ample justice to the dinner. The evening
was spent as they generally are at weddings
in the country ' • where everybody tries to
make everybody feel pleasantly. The young
couple just united in wedlock, intend going
to Missouri, where they expect to join the
band of true and noble hearted men and
women, who bid farewell to the homes of
childhood, and labor for the temporal and
eternal good of their fellow-beings.
LEROY.
KINGSTON. CALDWELL COUNTY, Alo.,
November 30, 1859. -
FRIEND LEWIS :—As I have been thinking
for some time of writing you a letter, and now
having an hour at my . disposal, I will try and
carry out the idea. And first to begin, I be
lieve I will tell you how I happen to be in
this out of the way place. Well, for some
time, I have been meditating a visit to this
State to see a brother in Chaiton county, and
also to take a hunt while away from home.—
So on Monday evening, the 28th, I took the
cars at Monmouth, and went up to Galesburg,
Knox county, and there took the train for
Quincy, Illinois, where I stopped till Tuesday
morning, crossed the river at that place, and
took the train for Palmyra; there took the
Hannibal & St. Joseph Railroad out into the
interior of this State. Having a friend at
Laclede, 109 miles out from Hannibal, I con
cluded to go on to that place and see him first
before visiting my brother, who lives south of
the road, and about 70 miles from the river.
When I stepped off the cars at Laclede, the
first man 1 saw, was the aforesaid friend,
with his carpet sack in hand, just ready to
take the train I was leaving, for a point about
45 miles further west, and within 50 miles of
St. Joseph. As his business was such as to
prevent his slaying, I took my seat in...the
cars with him and came on - to Hamilton, in
this county ; and. this morning I took the
stage, in company with him, and rode out to
this place, ten miles from the Railroad. He
having business off in the country, some six
miles from here, we procured a couple of
horses, and rode out to the site of Joe Smith's
town, " Far West," the first place he attemp
ted to settle. The location is a beautiful one
as could be selected ; is on a beautiful rol
ling prairie, through which meander several
small streams, along some of which are fine
groves of timber, along others a few stunted
trees, with patches of brush and hazel bushes;
sumac and elder in abundance grow along
the banks of the creeks and edges of the
timber. A few dilapidated old !millings are
all that are left of what was intended for the
great city of the faithful—but alas ! for hu
man calculations,_ Joe had to leave in hot
haste to escape from the vengeance of the
settlers for crimes his followers had commit
ted, and seek a new home on the Mississippi,
at Nanvoo. But as the history of Joseph
and his followers has heretofore been written,
I shall not follow him—but only remark that
whatever faults and failings he may - have
been guilty of, Joe was a good judge of land,
as any one can satisfy himself of who will
take the trouble to look at the land around
"Far West," or in Hancock county, Illinois,
about "Nanvoo." But now having got up
this far, I must tell you what I think of Mis
souri, so fir as I have seen it. And first,
from the Mississippi the land is somewhat
broken and rough—not so fine as much of
Illinois, and from what I can learn, water is
not so easily obtained as in Illinois ; but out
here in this. and adjoining counties, I ques
tion if a More handsome country was ever
made. The prairies are splendid, and are
well watered with running streams—lime
stone crops out along the banks, the very best
of building material; and sand appears plen
ty along the creeks. As yet, the country is
but very little settled. These counties ap
pear about in. the condition the Northern
counties of Illinois- did ten years ago, and
make the finest stock range here that could
be - desired. To-day I saw a great many
young mules,.of a good quality, running at
large, on the prairie and hazel roughs, and
as far as I can learn, are the main staple - ,
The cattle, so far as I could see, are not so
good a quality as with us. After Illinois, I
should say that - this was going -to be one of
the finest States in the Union. But as the
stage is due in a few minutes, I will close,
hoping to be able next time to do better. '
Yours, &e., J. P.
BENEVOLENCE.
We do not think a person can evince a snore benevolent
trait of character than being moved at the distress and
suffering - of others, and furthermore, anxious to do all in
their power to alleviate by every , possible means human
suffering. In this view of the case, we do not know how
the humane and benevolent can do an action more in ac
cordance with their philanthropic views, than by calling
the attention of their afflicted friends and acquaintances
to the fact, that Dr. SEMI S. lIANCE, of 108 Baltimore street,
Baltimore., 31d.„ has discovered a - Preparation, which' is put
up in the form of a pill, that has a specific action for
curing Epilepsy, or falling fits,' spasms, cramps, and all
forms of nervous diseases. 'Among. those who haVe been
permanently cured, we might mention a member of the
family of James IL Beadle, Huntsville, Alabama; Mr. M.
P: Sledge; Cabin Point; Surry county, Va., and Mr.. W. P.
Ligon, Grenada, Missouri. We might - go on enumerating
a number of others, until. we bad entirely filled up this
column of our paper; but we, think we have said sufficient
to satisfy every- person that tho subject 'Under considera
tion is one of vital importance to every one. Reader if
you are a well man or woman, and have no need of a rem
edy, perhaps you know some person who is not equally
blessed as yourself, if so, cutout this notice, and send it
ta him or hor. it cost you -but little trouble, and
probably it will make you instrumental in curing some
poor, afflicted mortal of that dreadful visitation, Epilepsy
or falling sickness.
Dr. Hance sends hie. pills .by: mail, free of postagecto all
parts of the world, on the receipt of - a remittance. His
prices are: one box, $3; two, $5; twelve, $2.1. We have
given his address above.

SON'S SALAMANDER
SAFES;
301 CHESTNUT STREET,
PIIILAD.ELPHIA,
ANOTHER TRIUMPH!
Phaadelphia, Sept. 29,1859,
' To THE PRESIDENT OP 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 lire on the Fair Grounds for eight
hours, respectfully represent—
That after seven cords of oak wood and three of pine
had Veen 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, anti a large quantity of documents were in the
Safe, and 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 Diploina and Silver Medal.

STILL ANOTHER.
WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 17,1$59.—Messrs. EVANS & WAT
SON, Philadelphia.
Gentlemen:--The Salamander Fire• Proof Safe of your
manufacture, purchased by us from your Agent, Ferris &
Garrott, 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 is 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 beet 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 aro of- any service, you are
at liberty to use them. Yours, truly,
DAYNARD & JONES.
GREAT FIRES—ANOTHER TRIUMPH!!
KNOXVILLE, Tennessee, March 13th, 1859.
Messrs. EVANS & WATSON, Philadelphia:
Gentlemen—lt affords me great pleasure to say to yon
that the Salamander Safe which I purchased of you in
February, 1858, proved to be 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
Safes to the community, believing, as I do, that they are
as near fire-proof as it is possible for any Safe to be made.
THOMAS J. POWELL.
