Huntingdon, Wednesday, June 13, 1860
LOCAL 8c PERSONAL.
;'One day last week, while a number of
small boys were engaged in performing gym
nastics, &c., on the railing opposite Fisher &
Son's store, one of them accidentally fell off,
striking his head on the pavement and bruis
ing it considerably. We remarked to a
friend, who had also been observing the per
formance, and seen the boy fall, that we did
not think that he would renew the same per
formance soon. But we were mistaken ; for
scarcely had the lad recovered from the shock
sustained by the fall, than be was at it again,
as earnestly as before. We will not be sur
prised to hear of some of them being car_
ried home with a broken neck or leg, if they
do not desist from such rash performances.
To KEEP FLOW ERS FRESII.--It is said that
vases of flowers will retain their beauty and
fragrance much longer if a little carbonate
of soda is dissolved in the water in which they
are placed. In this way flowers may be kept
fresh and sweet for a fortnight. As this is
the season for flowers, and as they aid so
much in the beauty and cheerfulness of our
homes, we have no doubt that our lady friends
will all try - the virtues of soda in preserving
their choicest baguets.
fl Counterfeit gold dollars have become
plentiful within the last few months, and so
well executed as to deceive one-half of those
into whose hands they fall. They should be
examined closely. They are of both sizes—
the first and last dies. On the small coin, the
diminutive word "Liberty," on the cap is
omitted. On the larger coin, this word is
not upon the genuine. They are all of light
weight, and will not bear a careful examina
tion.
In our last week's issuo we noticed
that an Encampment would be held here on
the 24th of September next, providing the
citizens could succeed in raising five hundred
dollars to defray the expenses, etc. We said
that but four hundred had been subscribed ;
but since then, we have been informed that
the required sum has been raised ; and so
the Encampment will be held in this place.
''. The Harrisburg Telegraph gives the
following recipe to prevent flies from soiling
furniture, glasses, etc., and which we advise
our readers to try : Take three or four onions,
boil them in a pint of water, and brush the
liquid over your furniture, glasses, &c., and
the flies will not light on the articles washed .
This may be used without apprehension, as
it will not do the least injury to them.
UNDER hIPROVEMENT.—We learn that the
& B. T. R. R. Co. are having the Stoners
town bridge braced and otherwise repaired,
which is, by the way, a very good idea, as it
is of enormous height, but perfectly safe.

will please accept our thanks for a plate of
very fine Strawberries raised in his garden.
They were equal in size to any we saw in the

AMALGAMATION IN LAKE COUNTY—A White
Woman Elopes with a full-blooded Negro, de
serting her Husband and Child.—The town of
Madison, in Lake county, has been thrown in
to great excitement by the elopement of a
white woman and a full blooded negro, which
occurrence took place on Sunday night last.
The lady is about thirty years old, of more
than ordinary intelligence, and of a very fair
appeara.neil. Her husband is one of the
wealthiest farmers in Lake county. About
a year ago he employed a full-blooded negro.
An Abolitionist of the Oerritt Smith school,
the farmer took the African into his family
on terms of perfect equality. Of late he has
noticed, with feelings which we need not at
tempt to describe, a growing intimacy be
tween his wife and the negro. Ho spoke to
her about it, but she succeeded in quieting
his suspicions for a time. On Sunday night
she arose from bed, leaving her husband
asleep, and fled with the African. Strange,
enough, they did not leave the county, or the
town even, only going some five miles from
the woman's late home. There they sought
shelter at the house of some friends of hers,
and there they were at last accounts. The
woman left her young child with its father.
The woman assumes a .bold face, and says
she has a, perfect right to run away with a
negro if she wants to, no matter if he be as
black as the ace of spades. Au Abolition
sentiment and an Abolition literature has pre
vailed in the farmer's hiNse for years. The
elopement is the legititnadk result.—Cleve

CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GLOBE.
MR. EDITOR :—Days, weeks, and even
months have expired since the preparation of
my last production for the columns of that
welcome visitor, the Globe. And, truly, it is
a welcome visitor, for whenever mail-day ap
proaches, (which is on Friday,) persons are
seen turning and returning from the post of
fice. And if you ask them what paper they
get, ten out of a dozen will answer, the Globe.
Then their faces will brighten as if they had
received its size, not size, but weight in gold.
Indeed, Mr. Editor, I am under the impres
sion if it improves the year to come, as it has
the year gone by, its circulation will be so great
that the present number of hands and size of
establishment will not be sufficient. But, Mr.
Editor, as " enough of anything is enough,"
I will drop the above subject and proceed
with the news of our valley.
Scarcely had the great meteor of day came
forth from his golden chamber—the morning
Iwrite—till the whole community was thrown
in an uproar, caused by a second Heenan and
Sayers bull3rism. _ Hearing a great distur
bance, I arose from my slumbers and soon
discovered the cause ; for scarcely had I en
tered the street till females were seen in all
directions ensconced beneath the Windows
and seated in the doors. I looked a little
farther and beheld a. regular combat taking
place on the corner of Arch and sth streets,
two doors below Avenue. This is the second
disturbance which has occurred in the village
of M— during the last month, and I
presume will be the last for awhile, or at
least one would think so if they had seen
chief officer Cowen taking our citizens to the
S. 0. there, to testify to the truth and noth
ing but the truth, etc.
Last Sabbath pßev. Steel delivered an excel
lent discourse in the S. C. B. Church, situa
ted a few miles above our village. Text
found in the 9th chapter of Isaiah, sth and
6th stanzas, dwelling considerably on the
word WONDERFUL. Rev. S. is an able dis
courser, and takes into consideration " any
thing worth doing at all, is worth doing
well." After listening attentively to the ser
mon, and turning my face homeward, I
thought how true the inspired pensman
wrote—
"Sundays the pillars are
On which heaven's palace arched lies;
On Sunday, heaven's gate stands opo,
gti are plentiful and rife,
More plentiful than hope."
The young men of our village and surround
ing neighborhood have at last formed them
selves into a society called the Mooresville
Senate. Something of this kind we have
been wishing for during the last ten months.
Likely I shall speak of it again, as I do not
wish to " string-out" very long this time.
It is supposed by our valley farmers that
the grain, as well as the fruit, will be consid
erably injured by the wet weather. How
necessary 'tis for us to sing, " Hard times
come again no more."
From Pike's Peak
By the arrival of the Overland Pike's Peak
Express, we have received Denver City papers
to the 23d and 24th . ult. The trip was made
in six days, and $7,977 52 in gold dust was
brought in. The accounts continue favorable.
Reports, (says the Rocky Mountain, Herald,)
from the Arkansas, the Blue, Tarryall and
other diggings, continue to pour in, and some
of them too good to publish. Nevertheless,
it is true that the diggings were opening this
Spring beyond the most sanguine expecta
tions of the prospectors of last season. J. J.
Hendrickson, of Independence, Mo., writes
that he has seen two men take out $l5O in
three fourths of a day, in the California Gulch,
which is about eight miles in -length, and was
discovered about the 16th of April last.
The mining season can now be considered
fully commenced, the snow having entirely
disappeared and spring at last arrived. The
work is now mostly applied to gulch diggings
and 'prospecting. Although leads have, in
a measure, been abandoned, it does not prove
they are not worth working, but the necessi
ty of having machinery and men of capital
to have them properly worked. Gulches
yield from $3 to $3O per day to each hand
with rockers and sluices, which result can
safely be expected all summer.
The Clay county lead with a machine pays
over $5O a day per hand.
There are ten quartz mills in operation on
Clear Creek, and all making money.
J. 11. Gregory has his mill in operation,
and with five stamps is taking out $3OO each
24 hours run.
Alexander & Co. are taking out from $3OO
to $5OO per day with their mill.
The following account of the Indians we
take from the Rocky Mountain, Hew. It is
worth perusing:
On Thursday last, the advance guard of a
victorious war party of the Arrapahoes re
turned from their late expedition against the
Utes, with four scalps and forty or fifty ponies.
They pitched their camp on the Highland
side of the river, and straightway commenced
a scalp-dance, with all its musical and other
accompaniments, which was continued
throughout the night.
On Friday there was a large accession to
the numbers, and a grand triumphal entry
into the city, with music, banners, and hun
dreds of gayly caparisoned horses and their
riders:
- - -
Their attack upon the Utes was beyond the
Rio Grande in Northern New Mexico. Four
scalps were taken and three hundred ponies
driven off, but all the ponies were lost or re
covered by the Utes before reaching here, ex
cept forty or fifty. Over a thousand Indians
are now - in and around town, among them
Little Raven, head chief of the Arrapahoe na
tion.
It is rumored that, in the recent foray, they
attacked and committed gross outrages upon
a new settlement beyond the Rio Grande, and
that much of the stock said to have been ta
ken from the Utes was mostly stolen from
American citizens. If this be true, they de
serve sure and speedy punishment. We do
not know to how much credit the report is

• YRRAH
The Politicians Still at Work---Another
Powder Plot.
[From the Cleveland Mindenler.]
There never has been in the history of this
country so palpable a division and sn intense
a fight between politicians and people as now
exists in regard to Senator DOUGLAS. There
are none but politicians, and those directly
under their influence, who are opposed to
him ; while the people enmasse are for him.—
If Douglas ever lives to get through the Bal
timore Convention and out of the hands of
the politicians, be will be elected by the
largest popular vote ever given to a Presiden
tial candidate. But the conspirators at
Washington are still determined to "head
him or die."
Our Washington Correspondent, whose let
ter will be found in another part of this pa
per, gives the outlines of the last developed
plot against the "Little Giant." It is a plaus
ible programme and does credit to the polit
ical cut-throats engaged in it. If Breckin
ridge is privy to this plot, as is more than
insinuated, his political grave is dug much
deeper than need be to place him beyond the
reach of any resurrectionary noise that may
be made at the last great day. Mr. Douglas
and his friends have never thrown a straw
in the way of the promising young Kentuck
yan, but on the contrary, have labored gal
lantly and incessantly for his promotion.
So far from conspiring with the enemies of
Mr. Douglas, or even remaining silent in a
crisis like this, Mr. B. should be the first to
throw himself into the breach for the peoples
candidate. This is what Douglas did for him
in '56. It would be doing no more than jus
tice to a great man in a great cause, and
would vindicate the claims of Kentucky to
the boldness, gratitude and acknowledged
chivalry of her genuine sons. Besides, Mr.
Breckinridge is a young man. He has a
promising future before him. He must not
forget that the main strength of the Demo
cratic Party, the future greatness and glory
of the country is centrating and culminating
in this "Empire of the West," and that the
future honors of this Republic will be controll
ed by the enlightened masses within her bor
der.
We of the West claim to be not only a
mighty but a magnanimous people. We nev
er have had a President. We offer to the
North and to the South a candidate now, on
whom the people in every part of the Union
can unite ; a tried statesman, a true Demo
crat, and a National man ; and we here in be
half of the laboring men of the West, the
Democratic masses, "men who work all day
and sleep all night," give notice to all con
cerned, that now as in future we intend to
" ask for nothing but what is right and shall
submit to nothing wrong."
The political conspirators against Stephen
A. Douglas, North and South, will do well
to make a note of this. It is the determined
will and recorded judgment of half a million
of Democratic voters in these seven North
western States. We intend no menace, but
a dgtermination to stand by our rights. We
are no longer to be trifled with, nor shall
cotton conspirators or political tricksters rule
our people.
Bigler's Defence
Senator Bigler has written a letter to D.
W. Moore, Esq., of Clearfield county, in which
he attempts to justify his determined opposi
tion to the wishes of the people of the State
he in part was selected to represent at Charles
ton. lie denies that he favored the secession
movement, as charged against him and othz
ers of the Pennsylvania, delegation, but ad
mits that "many of us had determined, and
had not hesitated to say" that had " the re
mainder of the Southern States, failing to
have their ultimatum accepted by the Con
tion," seceded from that body, they would
have refused " to participate any longer in
the proceedings of the Convention." In oth
er words : had the other Southern delegates
bolted, they would have bolted also. We de
sire to do Gov. Bigler no injustice, nor to
question his right to an individual preference
of a candidate for President; but represent
ing as he does a State whose people he well
knows desire the nominatien of Douglas, he
was in honor and duty bound to surrender
his personal preference, smother his personal
hatred and yield to the wishes of the Democ
racy of his State. As an honorable man he
can no longer refuse to give Douglas his sup
port. If his animosity against him will not
permit him to discharge his duty, he should
at once resign and let his place be filled by
some one who cares more for the success of
the party than for the favors and smiles of
James Buchanan.
We fear that our Senator, however, means
to again disregard the wishes of his constitu
ents. We have but little to hope of him.—
We think that he is already aware of the fact
that he has dug a very deep political grave
for himself and expects an outraged people
ere long to perform the burial rites. No
public man can act as Gov. Bigler acted at
Charleston without incurring the indignation
of his constituents. Would that he and those
he controlled in the Pennsylvania delegation,
had followed the fire-eater Yancey and his co
adjutors out of the Convention. They would
not now be outside of the organization or the
Democratic party in feeling only, but in fact
also, and their places would have been filled
by men at Baltimore who adhere to the prin
ciples as well as to the organization of the
party.
From the course of Bigler, Dawson & Co.,
at Charleston, public men can learn a very
important lesson. It is this : the representa
tive who places himself above, and assumes
to be independent of, his constituents, and
does the bidding of others instead of those
who elected him, forfeits the respect and con
fidence of the masses of his party and must,
sooner or later, reap the reward of his treach
ery.—. Perry County Democrat.
Lier A locomotive recently ran away on the
West Cornwall line in England. The throt
teevalve having been inadvertently left open,
and a fire kindled •in the furnace, the atten
dant went away for a few moments ; on his
return it had left town, and only ran out of
breath at a station some sixteen miles distant,
having rushed down some steep inclines, and
over sharp curves, at a rate of over sixty
miles an hour. It tore up and smashed
through a largo number of gates, but with
this exception did no damage whatever, and
was quietly led back to its stall without hav
ing been made permanently vicious by its
tricks, in which particular it manifested an
other decided improvement of steam over
horse.
lIOG PACKING.—The total number of hogs
packed in Cincinnati this season amounts to
.438,051 head. That is an excess of any pre
vious year. At Terra Haute, Ind., the pack
ing this season is estimated at 45,000 hogs.—
This is also an increase.

The Prevailing Cattle Distemper
[From the New York Herald, Gth.]
The " plenro pneumonia" or cattle distem
per, which originated in Massachusetts, and
caused much consternation and alarm among
farmers and cattle breeders, has developed
itself in New Jersey. in all the cases exam
ined, the ravages were confined to the respi
ratory organs; in some cases the right and
in others the left lung had been the seat of
the disease, and in every one involving the
whole mass of lung with its covering, and ex
tending from it to the lining membrane of
the ribs. The appearance of the bronchial
tubes gave evidence of participation in the di
sease from extension to them, from the sub
stance of the lung, disorganization or struc
ture being found alone in the lungs and its
coverings.
SYMPTOMS or TUE DISEASE.—LOSS of appe
tite, hanging of the head, and, as the disease
progresses, an extension of the head—bright
and watery eye, mouth dry, breath hot—
breathing quick, with more or less agitation
of the flanks, with an occasional cough, al
ways dry ; more or less thirst ; horns and ears
hot. The quick and occasional cough, coup
led with great prostration of strength, more
particularly marks the disease. The ear ap
plied to the side of the animal readily detects
the impediment to a free circulation of air
through the lungs, from the violent congestion
that exists.
ANTIDOTE.—Burn tar freely in the barn or
shed two or three times a day, and let the
cattle inhale it, but not two close ; let them
lap freely of salt every other day ; dissolve
chlorate of potassa in water, wash their nos
trils and mouth and rub them all over with
a course brush wet in the same ; sprinkle
chloride of lime in and about the stables ;
give the cattle a few onions if they can be
procured, and plenty of sound vegetables and
fresh grass and water ; no hay if it can be
avoided.
Physicians assert that the disease is one of
exhaustion, and analogous to the typhoid
pneumonia, which occasionally prevails epi
demically among the human race.

TESTIMONIALS OF THE CLERGY
"I have given some attention to the 'Biblical Reason
Why,' and feel bound to say that it seems to me to con
tain a vast amount of information on Biblical subjects,
conveyed in a clear manner, illustrated by many valuable•
cuts, and printed on good paper. It constitutes a valuable
addition to the apparatus of the Teacher, Parent, and pri
vate, Christian."
Right Rev. ALONZO POTTER, D. D., LL. D.
Bishop of Pennsylvania
"I have examined the 'Biblical Reason Why,' and find
it tab° a repartory of facts on Biblical subjects, set forth
in a plain and intelligible way. Indeed, lam surprised
at the amount of matter that is compressed into this vei
nal°. For use in families and schools, I consider it the
best book of the kind I have seen."
Rev. JOHN IdeCLINTOCA, D. D., LL. D.,
President of the Troy University, and Pastor of .ST—Paur.7
Church (Methodist I,:piscopal,) New Fork.
"The attention I have given your book satisfies me that
it cannot fail to give important aid to all students of the
Bible, and especially that large class who have neither
time nor means to bestow on larger or more critical works.
The plan of your work is excellent, and the matter well
chosen. It should have a large circulation. It will cer
tainly be of great use in the study of the Boly Scriptures."

Pastor of the Eighth street Baptist Church, „Philadelphia.
