What they lack in argument and strength they appear determined to make up in noise, and for that purpose they appear to have employed all the boys of town. With the assistance of some Democrats they raised a " Lincoln, Hamlin, Curtin and Wharton" pole at the upper end of town on Saturday last. Of course they will not count those Democrats " in " for anything more than the fun of the thing. COUNTY FAIR.—The County Fair will take place thin year at Huntingdon, on the old ground, commencing Sept.,( Wednesday) 26th, to continue three days. The proceedings of the meeting held by the society last week, will be found in another column. The Mili tary Encampment commences on Monday of the same week. ;.The Standing-Stone Guards will be nut in full uniform for the first time on Saturday next at 10 o'clock when the company will he organized A NEW PAPER.—We aro to have a new pa per established in this place in the course of a few days. Gentlemen are now in the city selecting the material. It will advocate the election of Bell and Everett for President and Vice President. Its course in county politics has not been made public. INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE FOR TUE SENATE. —J. Sewell Stewart, Esq., of this place, an nounces himself in our advertising columns ns an independent candidate for the Senate: In politics Mr. Stewart is an American-Re publican-Peoples' Party, or something else of the Opposition stripe. TEE Pr.Acn BORER.—Mr. John Hays, of Hollidaysburg, informs the Register that he has tried coal tar (obtained at the gas works) for two s ears past, as a remedy for the Peach Boror, with entire success. He dug a little basin about the root of the tree, raising the rim a couple of inches, and poured into it say a pint of the tar—renewing the application early in the spring. He is quite sanguine it will save the tree. Try it. CHEAP AND usErtm.—Along the borders of ponds and streams, and in moist sand all over the country, grows a little hollow-stemmed , leafless plant, ten to twenty inches high, and an eighth of an inch in diameter, which is known, generally, under the appropriate name of "scouring rush," though another name seems quite as appropriate, "vegetable file." Its outside is fluted, and the edges serrated, so that its effect when drawn across any sub stance is somewhat like that of a rat-tail file, and when used in a mass—that is a dozen or two doubled and tied in a bunch—it works like a wet sponge dipped in sand, and is one of the best things a housewife can use for scouring the inside of a churn, butter-bowl, and ladle, or kitchen table ; or in short, any kind of wooden utensils ; and, when well worn upon wood, is good for tinware. These rush es are both cheap and useful, and their use should be better known to all who live in re gions where they are indigeous to the locali ly. And where they are not now growing, it is worthy of a thought whether they may not be planted and grown to a profit, not on ly for home use, but for the use of others,-,-, Every one who has ever known their useful ness, will always bear them in remembrance. Harrisburg Telegraph. CABBAGE EXTRAORDINARY. — Yesterday tnorn in g we received from Mrs. A. Willoughby of this place, a head of cabbage weighing fif teen pounds. This is certainly the largest cahhav,e in these parts or anywhere else at this time. Vie are informed that the head we received was only one of several as large and larger raised by Mrs. W. this season.— Mrs. W. will please accept our thanks for the •inndsome present, Great Mass Meeting of the Friends of Bell and Everett Agreeably to previous arrangement, the friends of Bell and Everett, assembled in Mass Meeting, in the Court House, on Thurs day evening, the 16th inst. The meeting was organized by electing William Summers, President. Vice Presi dents—Armstrong Willoughby, Dr. J. G. Camp. John Africa, P. Marion Lytle. Sec retaries—Edmund Snare, J. 11. 0. Corbin. The meeting having been duly organized, Col. Win. P. Seymour, of Philadelphia, was introduced to the audience. lie delivered a very able and eloquent address in favor of Bell and Everett, which was highly applaud ed. E. C. Pechnin, Esq., Secretary of the State Executive Committee, was next introduced. His speech was a master effort. After the addresses of the above named gentlemen, the following resolutions were of- fered and unanimously adopted : Resolved, That the people of Huntingdon county, in Mass Meeting assembled, wearied of the foolish strife upon the question of slavery, which can result in nothing good, and which only tends to embitter the differ ent sections of our common country against each other, while the more important and practical question of a PROTECTIVE TARIFF is entirely lost sight of in the unnatural strife, feeling the necessity of the inauguration of a new party which will ignore all such dis tracting matters, Resolved, therefore, That we will support the Constitutional Union candidates, John Bell and Edward Everett. Resolved, That the officers of the meeting act as the officers of the Constitutional Club of Huntingdon, and that the President of this meeting be authorized . to appoint a County Executive Committee of five. On motion the meeting adjourned. WILLIAM SUMMERS, Pres'l. EDItUisID SNARE, } Secretaries, J. 11. 0. COR.BIN, Another Arithmetical Prodigy. A few days since we witnessed some aston ishing displays of arithmetical genius by a young man named Meredith Holland, from Monroe county, Ky., who called into our of fice. If asked to multiply any two numbers by each other, however great, he would in stantly give the result, as by intuition, and without any process of figuring. This he did in several instances, the numbers sometimes rising to millions and even billions. But the most singular manifestation of his powers was in calculating from the birth days of those present, and who propounded the test questions to him. For example, when the writer of this paragraph told him that he was born the 30th day of March 1814, lie im mediately answered, "Yes, your last birth day occurred on Friday ; from that day to this (July 16), there have been 100 days ; the whole number of days that you have lived from that time to this is IG,OOI ; hours, 450, 810 ; minutes, 24,350,400. On making a cal culation in the ordinary way, we found these statements correct in every particular, omit ting, of course, the hours and minutes of the faction of the day on which the calculation was made. Instantanious answers, similar to those from the date of the birth-day, was also suc cessfully given to some half•dozen others, and, so far as we know, these answers were always correct. Certain trigonometric problems were also propowided to the yoong man, but the answers to these, though given with equal promptness, were not generally correct, ow ing as it appeared, to an inability to compre hend certain essential elements in the prob lems. His speciality related mostly to the arithmetical department, and in this he pre sents a prodigy sufficiently wonderful. He is evidently uneducated, and is unable to explain the process by which he so quick ly obtains the answers to the most difficult arithmetical questions, but says the moment a question is asked he knows the answer, as it were by intuition, and without the slight est mental effort.—Life illustrated. FIVE GENERATIONS REPRESENTED IN ONE FAMILY.--A gathering of an interesting char acter took place in nigh Ridge, Connecticut, on Thursday last. Five generations belong ing to the family of Polly Stevens—formally known as Polly Curtess—comprising one hundred and eleven members, ninety-six of whom are still living, together with a few specially invited ones, met upon the premises of the old homestead for the purpose of com memmorating so rare and auspicious an event. At table over one hundred seated themselves to partake of the refreshments provided, eighty being members of the above family.— Some of the remaining sixteen were living in Ohio, which accounted for their absence upon the occasion, the distance being too great.— Each generation, however; had its represen tative, from the great-great-grandmother seated at the head of the table, down to the great-great-grandchild held in its mother's arms—a fine specimen of a fat baby five months old. Such a gathering as this we have never witnessed before, and may never behold the like again. All were enjoying good health, and most of them are, to say the least, in comfortable circumstances. • After partaking of the plentiful variety fur nished for the occasion, a suitable prayer was offered, and a brief address delivered by the Rev. S. W. Clark, of North Stamford. A novel and unexpected event then took place. It was announced that there was a child to be baptized, which proved to be the great-great grandchild, a fine, healthy looking girl, the daughter of Gould and Caroline M. Raymond, of Williamsburgh, N. Y. The ordinance of baptism was accordingly administered by the Rev. T. D. Littlewood, and the name of Jo sephe Adelia given to the child. After a short prayer, this pleasant and interesting gathering dispersed.—Exchange. Vir A few days since a case unparalled in the history of surgical operation on one's self took place,lin Memphis, Tennessee. A man named Patrick Dugan, who for some time had been under medical treatment at the City hospital, left that institution and went to a neighboring house, where he procured an rise, and went to the rear of the building, where, placing his leg upon a stump, with a stoical insensibility of real or pretended in difference to pain, he actually hacked the member off near the ankle. 'When discover ed, a short time afterwards, he was still stand ing by the stump, steadying himself by one hand, and swinging the injured leg, the foot being still attached by a portion of the skin, as gaily as though he was the most delightful posturer known, Clippings from Our Exchanges NOVEL REMEDY FOR WITOOPING COUGEL-A paper published in Preston, England, some time since, gave the following information to the public : " Great numbers of children laboring un der whooping cough, now visit the gas works in Preston, for the purpose of breathing the exhalations from the gas lime. It is said that all the little sufferers feel considerably relieved, and many are absolutely cured by this simple remedy." A gentleman in Philadelphia recently took ono of his aildren to the gas works there, while it was suffering severely from the whoop ing cough, and a perfect cure was effected.— It might be well for some of our physicians to try the experiment, and, if successful, a safe and easy remedy may be obtained for this dreadful scourge. A.R3ISTRONG COUNTY.-A horrible accident occurred at Freeport, Armstrong county, on the 28th ult., by which a man named Frank M'Callum lost his life in the following shock ing manner: He was boiling salt at Mr. James' works, when by some mischance•he was precipitated into the cistern of boiling salt water. He succeeded in crawling out, but there being no one near to assist him, he unforiunately fell back again in the scalding brine. Notwithstanding the second mishap, he got out without assistance and walked to his home. He was actually flayed alive, and after suffering unknown tortures, at last found ease in death, twenty-four hours after the accident. A COLORED CENTENARTAN.—There is living on the banks of the Ohio an old man, black enough to vindicate the honesty of his pa rentage, named Micajah Philips, and rejoic ing in the age of one hundred and fifteen years. He says he had been going to see "the gals a long time when the resolutionary war broke out." He invariably calls that fa mous war the resolutionary war. He was originally a slave in Richmond, Va., and near the close of the last century was bought by the celebrated Blennerhassett, and taken to Ohio. t-- On monday morning, Gth, about 3 o'clock, a most singular accident occurred at the Clarenden Hotel, in Buffalo. The Re publican, says : "Al colored waiter in the house by the name of Leroy Munday, with the rest of the servants, sleeps in the fourth story of the building over the dinning hall, his bed close up to the window. The night being very hot the window was open, and in his restlessness he rolled out. He fell a distance of some forty feet, in his descent striking the win dow-sills of one of the lower stories, causing the sash to fall, whereby a great noise was created, and finally landing on the top of a. small out-building in the rear of the dwell ing of John G. Deshler, Esq. The noise of the breaking glass in his fall, and his groans afterwards, attracted the attention of Mr. D. and others occupying that portion of the house, who went to the assistance of the in jured man. lie was, after some time, taken hack to his room, and a physician obtained, who, in his examination, could find no bones broken or appearance of internal injury." • HEATED WIND STOR3I.-A. heated wind storm passed over a portion of Kansas re cently, which proved nearly as destructive to animal life as the recent tornadoes that vis ited with such terrible effect portions of lowa. The wind arose about half-past ten o'clock in the morning, and contined until three o'clock in the afternoon. At one o'clock the mercu ry rose to 1191°, and contined so for about an hour, and then began to gradually de crease. The effect can scarcely be imagined. The wind blew a brisk gale, carrying with it a sultry, sulphurious smell. Two men in at tempting to cross the country from lola to Humboldt, (distance eight miles,) were over taken and perished. There were three oth ers at Humboldt, who were caught ont with teams, which perished, the men alone survi ving, and are now in a fair way to recover. There was scarcely a chicken left in the country. Hogs and cattle fell in their tracks and were suffocated. Various conjectures and reasons as to its course are given, but all unsatisfactory. Nov INQUISITIVE.—The Paris (Ky.) Citizen has found a woman who is not inquisitive.— She had not seen the market house for thirty-. five years, although she lives within two squares of it, and who has never seen the rail road, and has no curiosity to see it. She says she did get a glimpse of the cars once, from the street in front of her house, as they passed over the bridge, but she " paid no at tention to them." She has not been to church for forty years, and the reason she gives is, that people now-a-days go to church to look at each others's fine clothes, and to show their own, whereas, when she was young, they went there to pray and hear preaching. FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Sunday afternoon a week, a teamster employed in hauling lug gage from the river to the camp-ground, near Tareutum, lost his life in a singular manner. While driving a load up to the camp-ground, quite rapidly, he was thrown out, and falling a distance of about nine feet he struck a stump with jagged points, one of which en tered below his neck and ripped open his chest as far as the abdomen. Dr. Perch ment, who was on the camp-ground, was sent for, but before he arrived the man died, having survived his injuries scarcely fifteen minutes. —Pittsburg Post. ,fla?' Dr. F. Newburry Clark, on Saturday last, extracted a tooth from Robison & Co.'s celebrated performing lion, at Buckhannon, Va. The operation was witnessed by some thirty or forty persons, and proved highly satisfactory to his lion highness as well as the spectators. Dr. C. has the tooth pre served which is quite a lion itself, from the fact that it has assisted in masticating three hundreds thousand pounds of beef. RIO" A meteoric stone, weighing from 400 to 500 pounds, fell, or was supposed to fall in McAlisterville, Juniata county, Pa.. on sth inst. A rumbling noise was heard by many persons at 5 P. M., and one lady saw something falling rapidly into a field. Near the place indicated by her, this stone was found ; having been examined by a geologist, he made this report : That it resembled lime stone ; that it is circular in form, 3 feet 4 inches iu diameter, 18 inches thick, A SECTILItIAN Row. =The Catholics .nd Jews have come into conflict in Cincinnati. Archbishop Purcell refused absolution to Catholic servant girls employed in Jewish families, except on condition that they would leave their service. The Jewish Rabbi, Dr, -Lilienthal, retorts in a letter to Archbishop, saying that if this policy is persisted in the Hebrew merchants of that city will discharge the thousands of Catholic workmen in their employ. vr t ..'.A man by the name of Wm. Meadville, residing in Fostoria, Blair county, was stab bed in that place on Wednesday evening last, the 16th inst., by a man by the name of Ito gh Osmund, injuring him so severely that he died in two or three hours. The circumstan ces of the case are as follows : It appears that Osmund went into Meadville's shoemaker shop, Meadville was engaged in making some sort of a plaster, Osmund made some remark in a joking way in relation to the plaster, which was answered by Meadville in an an gry manner. Angry words followed, when Meadville jumped up from his seat and caught Osmund by the throat ; Osmund had a bar low knife in his hand, and to get Meadville's hand from his band, he struck at his arm with the knife, but the blow missed his arm and penetrated his heart. Osmund was ar rested and committed to jail. lie is• married and has three children. Meadville was an unmarried man. ta.. At Russell's Foundry, in Chicago, on Thursday last, a number of men were en gaged in casting, when one of them acci dentally spilled his ladle of molten iron into the boots of another. The agony of the burn caused the second man to drop his ladle, the scalding contents of which fell upon the man who had charge of the crane. He let that fall, and in an instant the fluid spread throughout the shop, severely burning about twenty. Some of them were horribly burned in the breasts and legs, but not fatally. e—The Owen county (Ind.) Journal says : "The census taker of Montgomery township has encountered an old lady who was one hundred and six years old last Fourth of July. She came from North Carolina, but has been here many years. She is still in the enjoyment of reasonable health and eye sight, and a sound mind. Her hearing is somewhat impaired, but the ftrnily converse with her in an ordinary tone of voice. With the assistance of a staff she can walk a quar ter of a mile without resting. Her weight is supposed to be between forty and fifty pounds. In Portland, on a recent Sunday, a parishioner who usually wore a wig, ap peared in his own natural shining bald head. His most intimate friends didn't know him ; and the officiating pastor, under whose preach ing he had sat. for twenty-five years, said at the evening meeting, "that he had observed a venerable gentleman who had worshipped with them throughout the day, and he was happy to find he was then present ; he would therefore call upon his aged friend to favor the assembly with a few remarks." LONGEVITY.—Mrs. Elizabeth Litzenberger died at the Stark county, Ohio, Infirmary on the Ist inst., aged 102 years, 10 months and 20 days. It is stated that when a girl she was a great favorite of General Washington, for whom she cooked during his visits to Lit tle York, Pa., which so pleased him that he offered her a permanent situation in his fam ily, which she declined. 1;z - ff. We were shown yesterday the hat worn by General Jackson on the occasion of his inauguration as President of the United States for a second term. The hat is in an excellent state of preservation, and though in its style forcibly reminding us of its distin guished wearer, it would hardly pass for flishionable. It is white, very broad brimmed, and has a wide crape on it. The tip hears the imprint of the maker, " Orlando Fisk, Broadway 137, New York—manufactured especially fur his Excellency, General An drew Jackson."—iVashville Banner, August 10. THE EARTHQUAKE IN KENTUCKY.-It has ah•eady been mentioned that at several places in Kentucky and Indiana the shock of an earthquake was felt on the morning of the 7th inst. At Evansville, Indiana, it was accom panied by a sound similar to that made by a heavy laden train of cars running slowly through a depot. Doors and windows rat tled, and buildings jarred as if agitated by the moving of heavy goods on the same floor. In one hardware store on Main street, the shock was so severe as to throw over a large circular saw standing against the wall at an angle of 25 degrees. A letter says : At llendersen, Ky., the shock was even more severe, though not of so long duration. The people left their houses and ran into the streets, though no damage was done. I am under the impression that the shock was heavier further South. The waves seemed to come from the southwest. Up to the time of the shock.the heat was very oppressive—not a breath of air stirring. Since that time the wind has gradually increased, and the ther mometer is sinking fast. Now (9.30 P. M.) the thermometer stands at 63. At 9 o'cock this morning it stood at 01 in the shade.— The sky is not clear, neither is it cloudy.— There appears to be a sort of mist that makes the stars appear dim. The breeze is still in creasing. I understand the aurora borealis WklS visible at two o'clock this morning. SINGULAR PLIENVM ENON—DCSCen I of a Thun derbolt : —Yesterday afternoon, about half past three o'clock, one of the most startling phenomenons occurred immediately in the rear of Mr. J. B. Price's lumber yard office, rarely ever witnessed. The descent of a thun derbolt, filling the air for a number of rods around with a. dense smoke or fog, loaded with strong sulphurous odor. Mr. Price's office and the new building in the course of erection adjoining it, suddenly becoming il luminated with an intensely red lurid light. simultaneous with a loud report, the shock of which was felt for several squares off. Some of the workmen in Mr. Price's new building felt the heat of the electricity quite sensibly, and say their tools at a moment presented the appearance of iron at a welding heat. It is curious that no one was hurt, or even shocked, although some ten or fifteen persons were in the immediate vicinity of the bolt.—Hanni, bal (Mo.) Messenger, August 2d. A VOLCANO IN WiscoNslN.—One of the strongest phenomena in nature has recently developed itself near the Horse Lake, Polk county, Wis. Flames of fire cane up through the earth in several localities, and one man's barn has been burnt down by it. Strange to say, the fire can only be seen in the daytime, the earth in the evening bearing a close re semblance to phosphorus. The air smells as if impregnated with sulphur. The most re markable feature in this case is the fact that woolen articles in the houses located near by take fire, although there is nothing visible to ignite them. This is a fact, says the Chica go Journal. ,Throe of the choir of young girls who, dressed in white, greeted Washington as he entered Trent(ln in 1789, on his way to as- SUMO the Presidency, and strewed his path way with flowers, still survive.
