LOCAL & PERSONAL.
THE EXCURSION TO BROAD TOP CITY . ON THE
FOURTII.—On the morning of the Fourth, in
company Nlith three or four hundred ladies
and gentlemen, we visited Broad Top City.
The train was in charge of Mr. Morrison, the
gentlemanly conductor; but we must con
fess that we always feel more comfortable,
more secure from accidents, which are very
few and fax between on this road, when Mr.
Lawrence, the Superintendent has an eye
over the party, as he had on this occasion.—
We arrived at the City Hotel at a good dinner
hour, and found that Mr. Morrison, the land
lord had a full supply of the best the Phila
delphia and home markets would afford. If
anybody came away hungry it was not the
accommodating landlord's fault. After din
ner we visited a celebration at Barnetstown,
some three miles this side of the city. Gen.
'Wilson was delivering an oration when we
arrived—after which the Declaration cf Inde
pendence was read, when the party adjourned
to a platform, where four violins kept the
young folks in motion until late in the even
ing. •We never saw better order at a cele
bration. The excursion party returned home
at 10 o'clock P. M., well pleased with the
day's performance. Our thanks to the en
gineer for picking up a stray passenger.
THE FOURTIL—There was very little stir
in Huntingdon on the glorious Fourth.—
About the only demonstration we heard of,
was a Celebration at the Cottage, by the
M. E. Sabbath School. Mr. P. M. Lytle and
Mr. J. Bailey,, delivered orations before the
School, and acquitted themselves nobly.—
Their speeches are highly spoken of by those
who were present. The citizens in general,
behaved themselves as becomes a Christian
like people.
A large picnic came off at or near Alexan
dria, and was largely attended, there being
about one hundred and fifty persons present.
The Methodist Episcopal Sunday School,
of Cassville, celebrated the Fourth in a be
coming manner. The Declaration of Inde
pendence was read by Prof. Jas. W. Hughes.
R. Milton Speer, Esq., delivered an oration.
Rev. Coleman, pastor of the Church, also
made an eloquent speech. Several of the
Sabbath School scholars delivered appropri
ate speeches selected for the occasion.
BOTH SIDES OF TUE GRAPE QUESTION.—This
is the title of the new work announced some
time since, and which has just been issued
by A. M. Spangler, editor of " The Farmer
and Gardner." It is a neat volume, in which
the important question whether the present
systenl of cultivation, pruning and general
management, is better adapted to promote
health, vigor, longevity and prodUctiveness
in the grape vine, than a closer approxima
tion to nature's system, is ably discussed.
The article on the classification of the spe_
cies and varieties of the grape vine, is not
only new, but of the highest importance.—
Every grape grower, if he has but a single
vine, should have a copy, particularly as it
can be had for the trifling sum of 35 cts. in
cloth, or 25 cts. in paper binding. Address,

_ Vir Sheriff Watson received notice on Fri
day last, from Powelton, that a band of des
peradoes had congregated in the woods ad
joining that place, and were furnished liquor
through the day by their friends, and at
night entered the town and committed all
sorts of depredations, causing great conster
nation amongst the good people, and making
it necessary to keep a watch all night with
firearms. We have not yet learned the ac
tion of the Sheriff.
INT TOWN. -Mr. Ptaszyk, the celebrated Piano
tuner, is now in town, and will remain for
eight or ten days. Orders can be left at Lew
is' Book Store or with Prof. Coyle. All work
done by Mr. P. is warranted.
LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE
The Methodist Sunday School Celebra-
Ma. En - L.l'on :--On the morning of the
Fourth, to the stirring music of the drum
and fife, the Methodist Episcopal Sunday
School, of this borough, marshaled by its Su
perintendent, proceeded to the Cypress Cot
tage for the purpose of celebrating the anni
versary of the Nation's birth-day. On ar
riving at the grounds—a place hallowed by
patriotic convocations for more than half a
century—the assemblage was called to order.
Addresses were delivered by J. M. Bailey,
P. M. Lytle, and Rev. Conser, Minister in
charge. The addresses of Messrs. Bailey and
Lytle, evidently prepared for the occasion,
were eloquent and patriotic, and have added
to the already growing reputation of the or
ators. Mr. Censer's remarks, though not
wanting in patriotism, were intended to show
the utter folly of erecting a fabric of govern
ment unless its corner stone is religion, and
the utter weakness of any governmental struc
ture without Divine support. After the con
clusion of the orations, the baskets of good
things were brought forward and relieved of
their delicious contents. A generous invita
tion was given to all present to freely partake,
and all within reach sat down to as fine a col
lation as was ever spread upon the Cypress
lawn. A general romp succeeded the repast,
in which old and young, grave and giddy,
participated, until the approach of evening
iiaitlne4 to indicate that the time for supra
tion
tion had arrived. The company returned
homeward, and parted gratified at the exer
cises of the day.
'Whilst I have my pen in hand, I cannot
close without noticing the fact that the Sun
day School connected with this Church, has
faithfully observed and properly celebrated
the anniversary of the Declaration of Inde
pendence at its annual recurrence for the
last twenty-five years, and longer, for aught
your writer knows. Although other organi
zations may grow weary in paying annual
tribute to the memory of those who ventured
their "lives, fortunes and sacred honors" in
the perilous contest for the freedom we now
enjoy, this School appears to be fully up to
its measure of duty. Beside the inculcation
of wholesome religious precepts, may it con
tinue in its patriotic course—now honored by
long observance—and may others emulate its
example. ARGUS.
Birmingham " Mountain Female Semi
nary" Examination.
MR. War. LEWIS :—We had the pleasure of
being present at the 4th semi-anual examina
tion of the pupils Of the " Mountain Female
Seminary," on Friday and Saturday, June
29th and 30th, and Monday, July 2nd. The
first day's exercises consisted of recitations in
Mental and Written Arithmetic, Geography
Analysis, Geography of the Heavens, and
History. The second in Grammar, Physiolo
gy, Natural Theology, English Literature,
and the Bible. The third in Familiar Sci
ence, Geometry, Evidences of Christianity,
Botany, Trigonometry, Milton, and Algebra.
An able semi-anual address was delivered by
Rev. D. D. Clarke, of McVeytown, and a
vocal and instrumental concert in the even
ing. During these few day's exercises, we
were greatly pleased to witness the readiness
and accuracy with which the . young ladies
recited.
Several eminent Lawyers, Teachers, Minis
ters and Doctors, who were present as visi
tors, were requested to propose problems and
questions, in the different branches, at every
stage of the proceedings; the invitation was
accepted quite freely, and the young ladies
passed through the trying ordeal most cred
itably, and these gentlemen have expressed
the unanimous opinion that they never were
present at an Examination where such a
large number of young ladies answered ques
tions, promiscuously thrown out, with such
promptness and expressive brevity; indeed
it was a rare intellectual treat.
During the first and second day's proceed
ings, there were not many visitors present,
but on the third the number was very great—
almost every occupation and profession was
represented in the assemblage. Parents, who
had the advantage of an education, would
exhibit countenances radiant with intelligent
joy as their "dear daughter" would solve a
difficult problem in Algebra or Geometry, or
explain the botanical names or construction
of the different parts of a flower or plant.—
Fathers and mothers who had been deprived
of the advantage of an education themselves,
could scarcely restrain their happy emotions
as the low murmer of whispered applause
would pass from ear to ear when their "loved
one" had answered satisfactorily a question
thrown out by " a distinguished gentlemen,"
or quoted and explained a whole page from
Milton. In truth, no one but the veriest old
bachelor could have listened to those exer
cises without being delighted.
To see those young ladies, from twelve to
twenty years of age, step out before that
audience, tLe very pictures of innocence, but
without mock-modesty, no show of boldness,
but sufficient confidence, smiling counte
nances, but no uncultivated giggling—all
showed by their deportment that they have
teachers. Ah ! and teachers they have.—
Prof. L. G. Grier is one of the most accom
plished gentlemen, a thorough scholar, and
more than that, a Christian. His pupils es
teem him very highly, and love to obey him.
He is prompt and decisive, generous and
kind. Mrs. Grier is a most excellent lady,
and delights to contribute to the comfort of
the pupils. Miss Davis, the principal fe
male teacher, is a graduate of Mt. Ilolyoke,
Massachusetts. Prof. Grier is unusually for
tunate in having so excellent a lady as Miss
Davis in the Institution ; she is thoroughly
versed in all the branches taught in any Sem
inary ; to be what she is, has been the study
of her life, she has an excellent mind, and
great knowledge, and knows how to impart
that knowledge to her pupils, and enable
them to apply their education in the practi
cal affairs of life, here and hereafter, which
is, or should be, the great aim of educa
tion.
Miss Rathbun, the music teacher in this
Institution, is an excellent performer of vocal
and instrumental music. At the conceit,
given at the Seminary on Monday evening,
her pupils performed many pieces upon the
piano, which elicited great applause from the
audience. The vocal music was excellent;
little girls, scarcely old enough to give words
their proper accent, sung with such accuracy
that we almost trembled for the laurrels of
the " Continentals," and the young ladies,
who were more advanced in years, showed
very great proficiency.
There were thirty-eight boarders at the
Seminary last session and a number of day
scholars. Some of the pupils are from Ches
ter, Lewisburg, Pittsburgh, Hollidaysburg,
Doylestown, Huntingdon, etc., etc. Prof.
Grier expects to have a much larger school
next session. This Seminary is very favora
bly located in the town of Birmingham, in
a moral community, free from the. bustle and
allurements of the world, on the bank of the
" Blue Juniata" and a few rods from the
Pennsylvania Railroad,. surrounded by the
most picturesque and romantic mountaih
scenery ; an abundant supply of running
water and spacious grounds. The building
is four stories high, about seventy feet in
length, and proportionate depth. In short,
it has every requisite for a first-class Semi
nary. 0.
Murder and Suicide of Mrs. and Mr.
Madden.
SCOTTSVILLE, July 7, 1830
MR. LEWIS :-Our peaceful community was
thrown into the utmost excitement last even
ing by a most horrible affair, which was enac
ted by Richard :Madden, who resided some
three miles south of this village. The par
ticulars are as follows, so far as I have
learned :
Mr. Maddens' family, all, excepting him
self, wife, and two children, (the eldest of
whom, was not over ten years of age,) were
cutting grain a short distance from the house.
Mrs. Madden was busy washing dishes in the
house, when Mr. Madden came forward with
a piece of board aboul 22 inches long, 7 inches
broad, and 1. 1 1 inches thick, and gave her
four or five blows,• one on the forehead, cut
ting a gash about three inches long, one on
the back of the neck and several on the body.
The boy present, ran to the grainfield for his
brother, who, on his arrival, found his moth
er under the porch steps. A Mr. Brown and
several - others soon arrived, and carried her
into the house. Mr. Brown asked her if she
knew him. She said "Yes," which was the
only word she spoke, and expired. in a few
minutes.
W. L. Cunningham, Esq., summoned a jury
which gave a verdict, "Came to her death by
several successive blows upon her head and
body."
While the boy was away after his brother,
Mr. Madden made his escape from the house.
This morning, about sunrise, a party who
were in search of him, found him near a
quarter of a mile from the house, at the edge
of a geld, hanging to the limb of a tree. He
had taken a riding bridle from off the porch,
with which he committed this horrible deed.
Esquire Cunningham called anothor jury
which stated that they believed insanity to be
the cause of the rash act. Dr. B. 1). F.
Baird, on examination, pronounced his neck
dislocated.
Mr. Madden was a good husband and a
kind father. Also a hard working farmer
until within the last 2 years, when he quit
working entirely, and at times appeared wrong
in his mind.
Mr. and Mrs. Madden leave a large family
of children, and also a large circle of friends
to mourn their sudden departure.
Another Grand Rally !
The Douglas men of Philadelphia held a
second grand mass meeting in Independence
Square on the 4th. A number of able speech
es were made. We give an extract from that
of Daniel Dougherty, Esq., that the Democra
ey of Huntingdon county may know with
what spirit the infamous proposition of com
promise is received iu Philadelphia :
"Certain delegates, the pliant tools of con
spirators in the National Senate, left the Con
vention because a vast majority would not
yield to their demands, and calling together
the mob they marshalled, styled it—a Con
vention ! No delegate from Pennsylvania
formally withdrew from the regular Conven
tion, and but three or four insignificant indi
viduals utterly unknown to the masses enter
ed - where the Seceders were gathered.—
["That's so," and applause] I, for one re
joice that we are rid of renegades from other
parties, and all who sympathise with Seces
sionists. [Cheers.] And yet we are asked
to compromise with these men !—to arrange
the machinery and vote for the same electo
ral ticket! [Cries of "no, never."] No They
have deceived us already in their treachery to
the National nominees, and never can be
trusted more. ["ilear I hear 1"]
What ! compromise with a faction, whose
head and heart is the man who, in the very
Convention which nominated Breckinridge,
declared that, ten years ago, he was a Disu
nionist, and who uttered there, amid approv
ing shouts, theatrecioussentiment, that he was
not for his country or against his country ?
Compromise with these men ? You might as
well have asked a soldier fighting by the side
of Washington to embrace the foe who aimed
a weapon at the berm heart ! [Tremendous
cheering.]
Down with Disunionists and Secessionists!
I respect the opinion of those who honestly
differed ; but I glory in saying that I was an
an ti-Lecom pton Democrat. [Applause.] I could
be nothing else. In the campaign of 1856 I
left my business and home, and for three
months traversed the hills and valleys of this
my native State in advocacy of the very prin
ciples we are now battling for. I promised
the people that our then national nominees
would be true to the platform. When the ad
ministration proved, as I conceive, recreant
to solemn pledges made to the people, I open
ly denounced the treachery. For this, I and
others I see about me were called disorgani
zers. We were traduced and villified, though
we stood by the organization, and voted for
the regular nominees : and now, after having
for nearly three years borne the taunts of the
parasites of power, the National Convention,
the only authorized body, decides that we
were faithful, we are asked to compromise
with the very men who were treacherous to
principle then, and now are in open war
against the National Convocation. [Great
applause.]
Such a compromise may suit politicians,
whose patriotism mounts no higher than their
pockets ; it is in keeping with office seekers,
and office holders, but duty to our country,
to truth and honor, to gallant Douglas, [cheers]
to our brothers of the South, who are fight
ing our battles there, demand that we should,
as we do, reject and repudiate with scorn,
with loathing, and contempt, all terms offer
ed, save those of unconditional submission to
the principles of the Charleston Convention,
and unhesitating and unqualified support of
the only national nominees, Douglas and
Johnston. [Wild enthusiasm.]
A majority of the State Central Committee,
composed of men who were never named, and
are unfit for such a crisis ; and the hirelings
of an infamous and corrupt Administration
on the Executive Committee, may recommend
a compromise, but every true Democrat will
treat their insidious offer with unutterable
disdain. [Applause.] Interrogate every mem-
ber of our electoral college, whether he will
vote unconditionally for Douglas and John
son. If he hesitates, even for an instant,
strike him from the ist. [Cheers.] Let a
State Convention be called by the members
of the National Committee for Pennsyluania,
and every vacancy be filled with a name fit
for this revolutionary struggle.
Others may make terms, but, if I stand
solitary and alone, so help me God,—,--with
reverence I vow it—never will I compromise
with those whose principles I oppose, and
whtse aim is the destruction of the Democra
cy, and the downfall of the Republic ! [Three
cheers for Dougherty.]
The following letter from the Democratic
National Committee, of which Hon. Miles Tay
lor, (Representative in Congress from New
Orleans,) is Chairman, is to the point:
" NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC EXECUTIVE COMMIT-
TEE Rooms, WASUINGTON, June 30, '6O.
" Stit : Reports have been busily dissemi
nated, in the shape.of telegraphic despatches,
from Washington, appearing simultaneously
in newspapers published in different parts of
the Union, to the effect that the friends of
Stephen A. Douglas and Herschel V. Johnson,
Democratic candidates for the Presidency and
Vice Presidency, presented for the suffrages
of the people by the National Convention re
cently assembled in Baltimore, were engaged,
in several of the States, with the friends of
John C. Breckinridge and Joseph Lane, can
didates designated for the same offices by the
seceders from the National Convention, in
making arrangements for the running of elec
toral tickets in different States, to be suppor
ted by them jointly in the approaching Pres
idential election, with the understanding that
the vote of the electors, elected by such com
bination, shall be given for Douglas and John
son, or for Breckinridge and Lane, as subse
quent events might require. What gave rise
to these reports, and to what agency their cir
culation is to be attributed, we have no means
of determining. The fact of their prevalence,
however, is so notorious that, when it is taken
in connection with the fact that it is stated in
some quarters that movements looking towards
such a result are about to be inaugurated in
Missouri and New Jersey, the subject becomes
one of sufficient importance, in the opinion of
the committee, to be made the subject of a
special communication to the known friends
of the nominees of the regular Convention of
the Democratic party ; and, accordingly, in
obedience to the wishes of the committee, I
now address you this circular.
" So far as it is known to the members of
the resident Executive Committee, no person
who supports the action of the National Dem
ocratic Convention at Baltimore—no person
who desires the election of Stephen A. Doug
las to the Presidency, and of -Herschel V.
Johnson to the Vice Presidency, has ever ex
pressed a wish for any such arrangement, or
entertained, or even countenanced, for a sin
gle moment, any suggestion or proposition
tending towards it. Nor does the committee
believe that any such arrangement can with
propriety be made at any time, in any place,
or under any circumstances, with those who
have placed Breckinridge and Lane in nomi
nation, and are now their avowed supporters
in opposition to the regular nominees of the
Democratic party.
" The Democratic party, as a national par
ty, stands now where it has stood for years,
upon the ground of non-intervention by Con
gress with the subject of slavery in the States
or Territories. Those who seceded from the
Baltimore Convention did so because they
were unwilling to stand on that ground.—
They have again and again repudiated that
principle, and both at Charleston and Balti
more declared that they would sever their
connection with the majority of the delegates
assembled in Convention in accordance with
Democratic usage, unless they, too, would
solemnly repudiate it in obedience to their
demand. When the majority of the Conven
tion refused to yield to their dictation, and
make their actions conform to the will of the
minority, these gentlemen seceded, formed
themselves into a minority Convention, and
nominated candidates who are the open and
pledged enemies of the principle of non-in
tervention' by Congress, as recognized by the
majority Convention, and as advocated by
their candidates. Under these circumstances
it is clear to the committee that if the antag
onism between the Seceders and the majority
of the Democratic Convention was such that
the Seceders could no longer take part in their
deliberations, and were constrained to set up
candidates in opposition to those selected by
the majority, that antagonism still continues,
and is such as must preclude the possibility
of any union between them in the support of
a common electoral ticket in any State, no
matter what may be the probable result of
the election in it without such a union.
P. 11. B
"The Democratic party, which is now uni
ted in the support of Douglas and Johnson,
stands upon the only principle which is ca
pable, if maintained in its integrity, of pre
serving and perpetuating the Union of the
States. The Seceders, and their candidates,
are opposed to this principle. Their course,
if sustained in the South, necessarily tends,
though it may not be so designed, to the
breaking up of the National Government.--
In the view of the committee, there is no room
for doubt, in the mind of any National Dem
ocrat, as to the path of duty in the present
crisis. The ' Seceders,' by withdrawing from
the National Convention and setting up their
candidates, have arrayed themselves in oppo
position to the principle of Congressional
`non-intervention.' National Democrats should
everywhere meet the issue now tendered them,
by nominating and supporting electoral tick
ets in their respective States, pledged, if elec
ted, to vote for Stephen A. Douglas for Pres
ident, and llerschel V. Johnson for Vice
President of the United States. If the Sece
ders and their friends choose to separate per
manently from the Democratic party, and
run a ticket in opposition to the regular nom
inations, let them do so. Upon them be the
responsibility of the result.
