THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C.
THE GLOBE.
Huntingdon, Wednesday, March 7, 1860
LOCAL & PERSONAL.
LOCALS IN BRIEF.—For want of space, we
are compelled to omit several local items of
general interest—Master George Plumer,
the boy orator, lectured on Temperance, in
the Court House, on Tuesday evening of last
week. Those who heard it, speak very fa
vorably of the young orator. He is raising
means to educate a brother who had both his
hands almost blown off by the premature dis
charge of a cannon, whilst on military duty
at Hollidaysburg, during the fall of '5B.—A
Daily Union Prayer Meeting has been intro
duced in this place. It was largely attended
on Monday evening. We may have some
thing more to say hereafter, when our col
umns are not so much crowded. The por
tion of Hill Street, between Bath and Mont
gomery, is being cleaned. A good move that,
and we think it would be nothing out of the
way, if some one would clear the mud away
in front of our office. We venture to say it
is almost knee deep, March is favoring us
with simon-pure spring weather. It was a
little blustery on Saturday and Sunday, how
ever, yesterday was warm and pleasant, and
the sun shines brightly over the earth.—
Mr. Whipple, teacher of the first male school
gives an examination to-day, in his school
room.—Mr. Mitchell, teacher of the second
male school, gave an examination of his class,
one day last week, and those who were pres
ent, speak of it as highly creditable, to both
teacher and scholars.—Judge Lynch's com
munication is unavoidably crowded out this
week. We will give place to it in our next.
A child of Mr. Ab. Lamp's came near be
ing drowned by falling in the river, on Mon
day last. Fortunately, however, it was res
cued before life was quite extinct, but has
been working in convulsions ever since, and
but little hopes are entertained of its recov
ery.—No change in the markets since our
last issue.
SERVED HIM RICHT.-A certain son of the
Emerald Isle, who resides over in Smithfield,
having imbibed pretty freely of " kill-'em
quick " whiskey one day last week, went
home in the evening and commenced abusing
his wife in a disgraceful manner, and after
satisfying himself with his brutal conduct,
laid down on the floor to take a "snooze,"
when it struck his wife that she would have
revenge, in some way or„Qther. No sooner
said than dune. She procured a sheet, and
carefully sewed her liege lord up in it, and
then administered to him what he so merito
riously deserved—a sound thrashing, and
made him promise to behave himself better in
the future. We admire that woman's spunk,
that's so. If others would go and do like
wise, perhaps it would have a tendency to
bring about a reformation that is so much
needed in some of our traveling whiskey
kegs.
MARCIL—March came in like a fairy queen.
The morning dawned bright and cloudless,
and the genial sun shone kindly on all the
world. Ills gleaming shield lent warmth
and pleasure to the air, and the streets were
all a glow with the golden light. Galaxies
Of fair women came, like birds of brilliant
plumage after a storm, from their hiding
places, and in gay and rustling - raiment,
floated through the town, the cynosure of all
eyes, admired and beloved. The pulse of na
ture throbbed with a quicker beat, while the
face of the earth was glowing with a renova
ted life. In its departing hours, February
resigned its sceptre with a genial grace ; but
we are not forgetting that boisterous old
March is to be crowned as its successor; and,
therefore. we are not disposed to write of the
coming Spring in rapture, until fairy April,
With laughing eyes and lithesome step, shall
glide in her royal garb -,of green o'er heath
and hill—when the first frail flowers—
"Upspringin,g from their mother earth
Make glad the presence of the living God."
CANAL NAVIGATION.—The Pennsylvania
Canal will be opened for business about the
25th inst. The new weigh-lock at Harris
burg, and the new lock at Dauphin, are rap
idly approaching completion, and will be
ready at that time.
A HANDSOME PRESENT.-WC received on
Monday, by Express, from our friend Gregg
Madson, Esq., of lowa, two fine saddles of
venison, for which he has our thanks.

LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE
UNITY, HENDERSON TP., March 5, 1861)
MR. EDITOR:—As you have no correspon
dent in this part of the county, I have con
cluded to send you a few of the local items
that are turning up in our neighborhood, and
if you don't think them worthy of an inser
tion in your excellent journal, you can insert
them in the stove.
Since the division of the township, politics
are nearly all the talk. Indeed, our town
ship elections are of almost as much impor
tance to us as the Presidential election.
Perhaps some of your readers may have
forgotten the " Young Men's Temperance
Association" at Unity. If they have, I can
inform them that it is still in a flourishing
condition, and at every meeting, we receive
some new members. There are over two
hundred belonging to it now. A resolution
has been adopted,by the Society, inviting ab
sent members and others who are friendly to
the'cause of temperance, to send to it written
communications, which will be read before
the Society by the Secretary. Communica
tions should be sent to D. A. Thompson, who
is Secretary of the Society. The Society
holds its meetings every two weeks at the
Union school house. Dr. J.. P. Thompson,
of Williamsburg, delivered an eloquent and
instructive lecture before the Society on the
evening of the 25th ult.
Reverends Crovvnover, Holmes and Kidder,
are holding a protracted meeting at the Unity
Church.
The balmy air, and the cheerful song of
the blue birds have awakened the farmers to
the importance of arranging the prelimina
ries for spring crops. ALLEN.
BRADY TOWNSHIP AWARE
Mx. Entroa :—As we have never noticed
anything in print, in regard to the educa
tional affairs of Brady township, I beg leave
to state through the columns of your paper,
that, on Feb. 11th, a meeting was called by
the teachers of this township, and opened by
-electing H. L. McCarthy, chairman, and M.
L. Shaffner, Secretary. After being favored
with some vocal music, the regular exercises
were opened by S. Z. Sharp rming a read
ing class, illustrating his method of teaching
that branch, followed by Mr. Criswell in
Mental Arithmetic. Grammar and Written
Arithmetic were next discussed. The sub
ject of School Governinent was next intro
duced, which elicited quite a spirited discus
sion. A number of teachers from Mifflin co.
were present, who participated in the exer
cises. On motion the President appointed
Messrs. Sharp and Shaffner to draft a Con
stitution and By-Laws, for a permanent or
ganization. Adjourned.
On Feb. 25th the Teachers met again at
the same place. Pres. in the chair. An as
sociation was permanently organized by adop
ting a Constitution and By-Laws. The vari
ous branches were discussed as before, when
another spirited discussion on school govern
ment ensued. Fourteen members signed their
names to the constitution—ten of whom are
teachers. The house was crowded with anx
ious listeners, and the most lively interest has
been awakened among the citizens of the
township.
—Ex-Governor Ford of Ohio, was, on Fri
day last, elected printer by the House of Rep
resentatives at Washington.
—Who now, after reading the proceedings
of the Reading Convention, will doubt the
existence of a strong Douglas Democracy in
the Keystone State ?
—The Kansas Legislature has passed the
bill abolishing slavery over the Governor's
veto.
—The Republican National Committee have
changed the time of the meeting of the Chi
cago Convention from June to the 16th May.
—Our readers will notice by the proceed
ings of the State Convention, that our Sena
torial and Congressional Districts were ably
represented in that body of intellect and in
fluence. We point with pride to the names
of the gentlemen and their works.
—The Ohio Republican State Convention
in session on the Ist instant, resolved that
Hon. Salmon P. Chase is the first choice of
the party of that State, for the Presidency.
In the U. S. Senate on Wednesday last,
Senator Seward delivered a long speech—a
bid for the Presidency. It is too strong Re
publican for the majority of the Opposition.
.—\Vm. B. Foster, Vice President of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Co., died suddenly of
apoplexy, on Sunday last, in Philadelphia.

The State Convention
[From the llarrisburg State Sentinel.]
The Democratic State Convention at Read
ing was the largest, most enthusiastic and
harmonious ever held in this State. It is
speaking within the pale of truth, when we
declare that it was more than five times lar
ger than that of the Republican Convention
held here on the 22d ult.
The very best spirit animated this vast body
of live Democrats throughout the entire pro
ceedings, and the Convention dissolved in a
blaze of Glory !
Let it henceforth be known that the De
mocracy of Pennsylvania is a united and har
monious whole!
Henceforth we will march on tc certain vic
tory ! _ A United Democracy in Pennsylvania
is a victory beyond the shadow even of a
doubt.
We are a united party ! We have a glori
ous standard bearer in the person of HENRY
D. FOSTER! Let the Republicans tremble
and the Democracy rejoice. We shall now
carry the State as certain as the sun rises on
the day appointed for holding the election.—
Mark what we say.
This is but the beginning of the end. The
happy era inaugurated at Reading on Thurs
dan last, will be carried out at Charleston
nest month. Douglas, like Foster, will be
nominated by acclamation ; and' who is there
that will then pretend to doubt the success of
the Democracy ?
[From the Harrisburg Patriot and Union.]
Probably there never has been a Conven
tion which has done more positive good to
its party. .Never has a body produced, so
unexpectedly, order out of chaos, and una-
nimity after discord. From the crisis, on
Wednesday, when• the slate of an overbear
ing faction was broken, until the adjourn
ment of the Convention, the proceedings were
calculated to subserve the interests of an
harmonious Democracy and a consolidated
Union.
There were those who desired that the pro
ceedings of the Convention should be in strict
accordance with a pre-arranged programme,
but they were met at the onset and complete
ly foiled. Upon one point they executed
their whole strength ; succeeded but found
themselves exhausted. So that afterwards
the Convention was left to its own impulses.
These impulses • were wisely directed, and
every succeeding action of this - Convention
was calculated to subserve the interests of
the whole party and the country. The nomi
nation is excellent, combining all the requi
sites of ability, popularity, patriotism and
honesty ; the resolutions are catholic and un
offending; the delegation to Charleston will
represent the Democracy of the State, and
pursue an independent course, best calcula
ted in their minds to subserve the interests of
the whole Confederacy.
[From the Philadelphia Pennsylvanian.]
The Democratic State Convention at Read
ing, after a two days' session, completed its
labors yesterday. No previous political Con
vention, in the whole history of the Common
wealth, united in a larger degree eminent
ability, large experience, and thorough and
unselfish devotion to the pure principles of
the Democratic faith which underlie and in
tegrate the government of our great Confed
eracy; and its action, springing from a spirit
of concession and an earnest desire for the
cultivation of entire unity, has given merited
gratification, and will inspire the masses of
the Democracy of the State, with renewed
confidence and zeal. The results of the Con
vention, notwithstanding some natural feel
ings of disappointment, on the part of the
friends of different candidates, have been
hailed with the most hearty enthusiasm, and
will go forth to the people with the strongest
possible assurance of the most free and cor
dial endorsement. The Convention was very
largely composed of the active, working men
of the party—men of long service and tried
patriotism—and their wise, temperate and
conciliatory action, reflects truthfully the sen
timents of the steadfast Democracy of the
Old Keystone Commonwealth, whose best and
most united and zealous efforts will be given
to its ratification.
A TEACHER
[From the Pittsburgh Post.]
The position - has sought the man, and not
the man the position. The Reading Conven
tion has given us a glorious nominee for
Governor. It has named, as the standard
bearer of the Democratic hosts of the old
Keystone State, a man who will lead them on
to victory. On the fourth ballot, Hon. Hen
ry D. Foster, of Greensburg, Westmoreland
county, was nominated by acclamation, as
the Democratic candidate for Governor of
Pennsylvania in 1800. Every Democrat—
every conservative man—who opposes the
factious and sectional Opposition, which would
destroy the peace and fraternal good feeling
of the sisterhood of States, will rejoice at
this nomination. The fact that it has been
made, shows that hereafter the Democratic
party in the State will act as a unit in the
great National cause. His name is a talis
man at which bickerings and strife among
Democratic brethren will cease.
Mr. Foster has not sought this nomination;
on the contrary, he has, although urged to
enter the canvass, steadily asserted that he
did not seek it, and did not wish his friends
to regard hftn as a candidate. But the De
mocracy of his native State, has called upon
him to take the highest position in their
gift, and what is still more honorable, to take
the high position of leader in a campaign
which promises to be one of the most exci
ting, as it certainly will be one of the most
important which has ever occurred in the
political history of this country. He will
respond to the call with true Democratic man
hood. In selecting him, the party " know in
whom they have to believe." He has already
"done the State some service, and they know
it." In political, as well as social life, he
has ever borne a most honorable name. As
a politician, his course has ever been consis
tently clear, honorable and Democratic. As
a man, he is possessed of a fine education,
fine personal address, and a warm-hearted
friendliness which attracts and binds the af
fections of all with whom he comes in con
tact. No man in the State possesses, in a
more eminent degree, the elements of per
sonal popularity, and there is no one in whose
hands the people would more gladly trust
their most important interests.
He is a lawyer of high standing and abili
ty, thoroughly acquainted with the political
affairs of the State and of the Nation—a
ready and eloquent public speaker, and a
true-hearted, honest, Democratic man.
" The Depths of True Sisterly Love."
A Woman Murders lzer Brother, and volunta
rily surrenders Hersey:
An extraordinary affair has occurred at
Hanover, says the Lockport Journal. Last
week a respectable tradeswoman with two
children, went to the police office and stated
that she had murdered her brother in her
own house, and that she wished to be taken
into custody. The police went to the house
and found the dead body of her brother, whose
name was Basal, lying in one of the rooms
with his throat cut. The woman said that
the man, after losing from drunkenness sev
eral situations as clerk to - advocates, had been
reduced to the necessity of accepting the po
sition of railway porter, but that she had
kindly allowed him to live with her, gratis,
on condition of his giving a solemn promise
that he would abstain from drink for the fu
ture. This promise he had not kept, and the
night before he had returned home so drunk
that he had fallen asleep on the floor. Irri
tated at his shameful conduct, she cut his
throat. The police thinking the woman in
sane, had her examined by medical men, but
no indication of lunacy could be discovered.
It turned out that she had committed the
murder in the presence of her two children,
aged ten and twelve, and that before giving
herself into custody she had Made her will.

REASON AND C031101.0N SENSE.
Our readers may remember we have on several occa
sions spoken in very eulogistic terms of a preparation
which Dr. Szru S. HANCE, of 108 Baltimore street, Balti
more, Md., has discovered for the cure of Epileptic Fits.
Now, in doing so, we have been actuated by the very best
motives, viz: the alleviation of human suffering. From
circuinstances which have lately come to our knowledge,
we fear there is a certain class of persons who are not dis
posed to try this remedy in a common sense manner. We
allude to the fact of selecting a particular case in a town
where perhaps there are six or eight cases, and trying it
on ono case. Now, perhaps the case selected might be the
only one of the whole number that it would not cure.—
This is neither doing themselves nor the medicine justice.
If a dozen persons were stricken down with cholera in
one town or neighborhood, would they all send for a phy
sician, or would only one employ him, and wait and see if
he cured the first patient ? That plan of procedure would
be most absurd. So in the case of Dr. Hance's remedy,
every one who has Fits should try it for a reasonable
length of time. It will not cure in a day or a week, noth
ing worth doing can be accomplished at once. What is
easily done, is as easily undone. The growth of time is
eitduring. From the most respectable testimony we have
examined, we feel assured that by a proper perseverance
in this remedy, nine cases of Epilepsy out of ten may be
cured. The Pills are sent by mail free of postage to any
part of the world. Price: one box $3; two $5; twelve
$24. You will find the address above.

R-PENTAL CARD.-
R. JOIIN LOCKE having opened an office in Hun
tingdon for the purpose of practicing in the line of his
profession, where he may be found the first Monday of
March, (sth day,) to spend the week.
Dr. LOCKE would say to those in need of the services
of a dentist that he has spared no time or expense in ac
quiring a thorough knowledge of his profession in all its
various branches; add to this the fact that he has had
fifteen years experience in actual practice, and can safely
assert that he is prepared to give the best tdvice and ren
der the most satisfactory service that can be expected of
any dentist.
Proper advice, with a little attention to the natural
teeth, will often save the patient much suffering and ex
pense.
Dr. L. would say to those who have been unfortunate in
their selection of a dentist, and consequently find their
mouths in an unhealthy condition, or filled with artificial
teeth badly adapted, that they should lose no time in cal
ling on a dentist qualified to remedy the evil.
To those who have not their work done yet, ho would
say be careful in your selection of a Dentist, and save
yourselves the pain and expense of the experiihonts of
those not qualified to practice.
Dr. L. has the honor of referring to the following from the
faculty, and would respectfully refer to all persons for
whom ho has operated:
This is to certify that Joirx Loess is a regular graduate
of the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery ; that after at
tending two fall courses of lectures in said Institution, ho
was unanimously voted, after a trial examination, worthy
of the highest honor of the College by the faculty.
In addition to this testimony of qualifications in his
profession, it gives us pleasure to state his habits of study,
attention and punctuality, and therefore cordially com
mend Dr. Locxa es a safe,
skillful and faithful practitioner
to all those who may entrust him with the management
of their teeth. _ .
