THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C. THE GLOBE. Huntingdon, Wednesday, May 2, 1860 LOCAL & PERSONAL. ROBBERY.—Some time after twelve o'clock on Friday night last, a thief or thieves broke into the store and Post office of Wm. Colon, and carried off a quantity of jewelry, a few dozen pocket-knives, port monnaies, postage stamps and some fifteen dollars in small change—the whole in value about $250. They gained an entrance through a door at the head of a stairway leading from the base ment story occupied by, E. C. Summers.— How the thieves got into the basement is yet a mystery. A front door and a back window was broken open, but whether broken from the inside or outside has not yet been satis factorily decided. .The letters in the boxes had been handled and considerably changed from their right boxes, but it has not been as certained whether any are missing. The rob bers are at large, making arrangements, per haps, to commence a retail business. SCHOOLBUILDING.—There are now 360 chil dren in attendance at the six Public Schools of this Borough, making an average of 58 for each, while it is conceded that 40 is quite sufficient for the management of one teacher, to say nothing of the injury of health result ing from crowded rooms. In view of these facts, the Directors have under consideration the project of building two additional School rooms, one of which is intended to be used for a high school for both sexes. 'Ye hope this measure, will succeed. The increasing population demands it, and we see no reason why our public schools should not be carried to a grade 'equal to any private school in the place. How TO BECOME A GOOD llnasnmsN.--A knowing writer on the subject, in laying down rules for riding on horseback, gives this ad- vice : "Keep your' head up, chin down, chest forward, shoulders back, elbows in, hands down, back in, belly out, feet forward, thighs fixed, knees in, legs close, heels down, toes in, loins loose, seat firm, hands tight, horse and rider well balanced, trot two hours every day without stirrups, and then time and per severance may make you a good horseman. To this we beg to add that when you have perfected yourself under these instructions, yon may invite a lady to ride with you, or enlist in a regiment of dragoons." ESCAPE OF Two PalsoNErts.—On Friday last, about noon, two prisoners, from Peters burg, this county, who were in the jail yard, sealed the wall while jailor Shoemaker was eating his dinner, and made good their es cape. As soon as they were missed, search was immediately instituted, but of -no avail. Nothing has, as yet, been heard of them. BRAVO.—On Friday last, some half dozen of our young ladies walked to Petersburg, a distance of five miles, got their dinner, and walked home again, before dark. Pretty good, that. Do it often, girls, and wo give our word for it, you will present a healthier and more robust appearance, as well as en joy better health. A FINE CIIANCE TO HAVE CHOICE FRUIT.— Schneider & Steel, of this place, have just re ceived by the steamship Persia, several kinds of the most choice Hungarian and German Grape vines, and a few dozen genuine Ger man Prune Trees.

LOCAL CO R,RESPO D E C E To the School Directors of Huntingdon County:—As the 7th of May will record on the pages of History. an event more intimately connected with the educational interests of our county, than any Gubernatorial or Presidential campaign, we, as directors, parents and teachers, are pres s:A with the all-important question, Who should and who will be our next County Superintendent? We should have a man of but one occupation. A man who will give tins calling his whole time awl attention. Not a mer chant or a minister, but we •cant a man for Superinten dent who is a practical teacher•; not one who has taught only, but is teaching at the present. Let the Directors inform themselves of the good qualities and abilities of each candidate, and exercise their good judgment in se lecting the one best qualified in every respect for the office. We do not want a man whose educational qualifications are good only, but one who has correct views of the art of teaching, and who has always been a successful teacher. All the requisitions necessary to make a good Superinten dent, we feel confident, are found in Prof.Jus. W. Hughes, of Cassville. We, therefore, take pleasure in recommend ing Prof. Hughes to the Directors• of this county, as the Man in every way suited to that office. S. & G. INSANITY RESULTING FROlf VANITY.—The Lafayette Journal says the sheriff of that county recently took a young fellow to the lunatic asylum from that place, who is-re markable handsome, and whose insanity is believed to have been produced by a morbid development of his self-conceit. Vanity not satisfied with making people crazy—it has more victims in the grave than the chol era. Ser The style of orchards they have in Portland, Oregon, may be inferred from the description of one which yielded in one sea son $30,000 worth of cheeri6s, pears and lums, and required forty thousand feet of lumber for fruit boxes. EAST EA.RREE, April 30, 1860 From the Pike's Peak Region [From tho St. Louia Republican.] DENVER, April 4, 1860.—Denver was again thrown into excitement, last week, by the announcement that a man had been killed.— Oa proceeding to the ground I found the vic tim to be Jack O'Neil, a person long since noted for his crimes, which were still unpun ished. It appears that a quarrel had arisen several days previous, which had been re newed on the day before, by very insulting and slanderous language used by O'Neil to Rooker, who commtted the deed. In conse quence of this, a challenge passed between them. O'Neil chose bowie knives as weap ons, and a dark room for the place. These Rooker rejected, whereupon O'Neil sent word that they would shoot on sight. With this arrangement of the matter, Rook er stationed himself in the door of the 'West ern Saloon, armed with a shot gun, loaded with buckshot. O'Neil had occasion to pass by, and as he did so, when Rooker saw him he cried out with an oath, " I've got you now," and immediately shot him. O'Neil, who had turned to go away, fell with his revol ver cocked in his hand, simply uttering the words: " Rooker has killed me," and ex pired in ten minutes. Rooker fled, but soon after returned, and has since received a sham trial, at which he was acquitted. It will be remembered that O'Neil fled from Kansas City in the night to escape being lynched by the people for committing a rape in connection with another person. He is reported to have killed several persons in Salt Lake, of which deeds he has frequently boas ted. He has been quite noted here as a pu gilist. His death was looked upon more in the light of the abatement of a nuisance than of anything else, and consequently but little attention was paid to the matter, and it was passed by without a thorough investigation. The price of town property is rapidly ad vancing. Lots here, 25 feet by 125 feet, sell fur from five hundred to one thousand dollars in the business portions of the town. There is very little property for sale at any price.— At the present time, the mills are unable to supply the demand for lumber. The bustle of the new year has fairly com menced. Every one has something to do.— Carpenter's wages are now five dollars per day, with the probability of an increase.— Farmers are busy fencing, and would be en gaged with the plow but for the fact that there arc none to be had. The blossoming of flowers on the open prairie indicates the re turn of Spring. Vegetables are already up in many of the gardens. The renewed ac tivity everywhere manifested, has not been without valuable results in the mines. New and rich discoveries are being made daily. The Socreto lode has proved itself to be one of the richest ever discovered, at least so far as its quartz 'is concerned. Specimens of great richness and rare beauty are frequent ly taken out. No quartz or earth has yet been washed from it. In grading the new Gregory and Mount Vernon road, whore it crosses Clear Creek, a lode which yields very rich quartz, has just been discovered. Specimens have been ex hibited from it which are fairly covered with gold. Just now the Arkansas mines are the great cry. They are about one hundred miles dis tant, and are reported to extend over all the upper tributaries of that stream. The dis coveries in that region were made simultane ously by Cherokees and Americans, though at points considerably distant from each other. The average per diem has been, during the past Winter, with rockers, five dollars.— When the smaller gulches and ravines are free from snow, it is confidently expected that richer diggings will be found. But little re ally has been done anywhere west of the range. towards prospecting the country.— Enough, however, has been done to indicate that the western slope is fully equal to the eastern. The westward tide has at length broken through the deep snows upon the di vide, and those rallies, so little known to white men, are echoing with the sound of the aso, the pick and the shovel.

Beadle, of Huntsville, Al abama, called on us and gave us permission to publish for the benefit of suffering humanity, the astonishing cure which had been effected in the case of his wife by the use of Dr. Ilance's Vegetable Epileptic Pills. He informed us, that at the time his wife commenced using the medicine, her system was so entirely prostrated, by the number of spasms she had undergone, as to reduce her weight to 100 lbs. Since she has been taking the pills, she has entirely got over the spasms and has gained in weight and bodily health. She now weighs at least 200 lbs., and declares she is in bettor enjoyment of health than ever before in her life. Mr. Beadle also related the case of Mr: Harrison Lightfoot of the same town, who has been entirely cured of the worst form of Epilepsy by these same pills. Mr. Lightfoot's case was so bad that he never passed a week without having an attack, often falling down in the street. Ito has not had an attack for more than a year. Mr. Bea dle thinks that if the pills ever fail in curing a case, it is for the want of a proper perseverance on the part of the person in taking them, as he feels assured from observa tion in the case of his wife, that if they are taken for a sufficient length of _time, they will cure any case.
