tion of those wishing to attend the Encamp
ment, the Pennsylvania Rail Road have con
sented to issue Excursion Tickets at! all sta
tions between llollidaysburg and Newport.—

TO OUR READERS IN NEIGHBORING TOWNS.
—All of you who feel an interest in your
place of residence should furnish us with the
facts relative to • affairs of general interest
which occur in your respective localities.—
We will publish such correspondence from
reliable persons with pleasure, and while it
adds to the interest of our paper it also calls

and thus advance its interests. Give us the
items.
MATTRESSES FILLED wirn Woon.—One of
the "Down East" inventions of the past year
is a machine for making curled hair for mat
tress filling out of wood. A solid block of
maple, basswood, quaking asp, or any sweet
scented, inexpensive wood, is rapidly conver
ted into a fibrous mass, much resembling
white horse hair, and is much cheaper than
hair, wool or cotton, and better than husks,
moss, sea grass, &c. The machine is not ex
pensive, and can be set up nay place where
wood is plenty, and where there is water or
steam-power. It can be worked by any ordi
nary mechanic.
SPURIOUS TICKETS. - The Pennsylvania
Railroad Company have given public notice
that no ticket dated previous to the first of
September will be received upon any of the
passenger trains. The holders of such tick
ets are requested to present them to the
Division Superintendents of the road, who,
upon due proof being given that they were
regularly purchased from the agents of the
company, will refund the money. Notice is
also given, that hereafter no ticket will be
good unless purchased directly fron the au
thorized agents of the company, These reg
ulations are intended to prevent frauds which
have hitherto been practiced by outside par
ties buying up second-handed, the tickets of
the company.
SEASONABLE ADVICE.-With the change of
seasons from Summer to Autumn, comes a
shortening of days and a change of weather.
Now the nights are long and comfortable,
and delicate persons close their windows,and
there is much sound sleeping, and there are
many remarks as to the change. But de
lightful as The season is upon which we have
just entered, it is none the less an excellent
time to be careful. Fall colds are proverbial,
and it is just at this changing season, when
stepping from warm nights to cool ones, that
persons should be more careful in matters of
clothing, and observe with unusual attention
the mysteries of diet. Now it behooves all
who can to take exercise, and restore that
strength which may have been drawn from
the system by the enervating heats of sum
mer. And now, be it observed, is the time
to keep out of the night air, when too near
rivers, or marshy grounds, or other miasmat
ic localities.
[From the Harrisburg Daily Telegraph, Sept. 7.
DEATH OF YOUNG DONNING.—It is our mel
ancholy duty to chronicle the death of Mr.
Robert G. Denning, the victim of a railroad
accident yesterday morning. After linger
ing in great agony until about twelve o'clock
last night, death relieved him from his suffer
ings. The.deceased had for some time been
betrothed to an estimable young lady of this
city, Miss Gray, and both looked forward to
a speedy and happy union. When it was as
certained that Mr. Denning could not possi
bly survive, at the mutual request of him and
his betrothed, and with the consent of the
parents of both, they were married. Rev. Mr.
Carson performing the solemn and infpres
sive ceremony by the bedside of the dying
man. The bridegroom passed from the altar
to the tomb, and the devoted bride of an hour
changed her wedding garments for the habil
iments of mourning. •The bride of yesterday
is the widox of to-day 1 In the midst of her
grief, however, there is sweet consolation in
the thought of a re-union with the loved one
hereafter in a world "where partings are no
more."
Mr. Denning was a brakeman on a coal
train,and when at Thompsontown on the Pa.
B. his train came in collision with a freight
train. Mr. D. was thrown under the cars,
the wheels taking off one of his legs and oth
erwise injuring him.
[From the Shippensburg (Franklin Co) News.]
Dilessrs. ; Robert Flemming and B. Blair,
from Tuscarora Valley, Huntingdon county,
Pa., being on their way eastward with a drove
of cattle, stopping with them over night in
Dublin township, in said county, un the 4th
inst., the cattle were as usual turned into
pasture. In the morning twenty were mis
sing. The owners suspecting strongly that
they were stolen. Mr. Flemming set out in
pursuit. Arriving at Shippensburg about
noon, the following day, the cattle were found
and identified. A Mr. Jacob G. Keller, of
Litiz, Lancaster county, having the same day
purchased them, at $350, from two Men who
were entire strangers, and who had left just
before Mr. Fleming arrived, Constable Hock
with two other persons were dispatched to
ferret out the men who had disposed of the
cattle, to Mr. Keller. Overtaking them at
Stoughstown, in this county, they were ar
rested and brought before Justice Mackey.—
On their examination they utterly refused to
give their names or place of residence, or an
swer directly to any other questions put by
the Magistrate to them, but even attempted
to turn to ridicule every effort made to elicit
facts pertinent to the subject. - Mr. Keller
positively testified that the men were the same
from whom he purchased the cattle, and that
they said their names were Smith, being
brothers. Mr. Fleming and others gave evi
dence that part of the cattle found (nine, we
believe) belonged to him, and the remainder
to Mr. Brice X. Blair.
The same men also sold a horse and mare
to Mr. John Frey, of this place, for which he
gave them two gold watches and thirty-five dol
lars in money, which on the allegation of Mr.
Frey that he believed that they were stolen
property, were retained, and are now in safe
keeping. Mr. Keller's s3so,and the watches
and money of Mr. Frey were all recovered,
and given up to them for the present. The
persons charged with these depredations were
committed to the Carlisle Jail, from whence
they will be conveyed to Huntingdon county,
for trial at the November Sessions.
Rumor says that two head of horses, an
swering to the description of those sold to
Mr. Frey, were recently stolen in 'Bedford
county.
It is believed that the two scamps, arrested
and now confined in jail, are part only of a
general gang of villians spreading themselves
over the country.
FEARS or A FAMINE IN LOUISIANA.—It ap
pears that at Natchitoches Parish, La., they
are actually fearful of a famine, owing to the
shortness of the crops. A writer in the Chron
icle, published in that section of the State,
proposes petitioning the Governor to convene
the Legislature at an early day, for the pur
pose of appropriating funds to meet the exi
gencies of the case. The writer says : "The
people in this portion of the State are now in
the utmost need of help from some source, to
prevent a famine and its consequent miseries
and death.- Every day brings to our cars the
distressing information of the blasting of the
husbandman's hopes. Thousands of acres of
grain have not yielded the seed planted. The
forest crop of acorns and nuts is blasted and
gone. The grass is dried and there is no
hope for grain or meat for the year's supply
being raised by our farmers. The cotton crop
is ruined except on the margin of the rivers
and bayous and on the low lands. All the
upland cotton is a failure, so the dependence
on cotton to afford means to purchase corn
and meat is lost to hundreds."

DIED,
At his late residence in Tell township, on Sabbath even
ing August 26th, Rev. GEORGE GRAY, in the 58th year of
his age.
His end was peace—that gospel which he had so long
preached to others was to him a source of great comfort
in the decline of life. The grave had no terrors for him;
lie was well assured of his saving interest in Christ Jesus.
He felt death to him would be infinite gain. His funeral
services conducted in Upper Tuscarora church by the Rev.
G. Van At tsdalen, his sucpessor in thd pastoral office, were
appropriate and solemn. He had been pastor of this church
in connexion with the one at Shade Gap, about 25 veal's,
The house was crowded to its utmost capacity, to pay the
last tribute of respect to this aged servant of the Lord,—
" Say ye to the righteous, it shall be well with him."
COMMUNICATED.
In Cassvillo, on Sunday morning, Sept. 241, :Ans. JEMIMA
CROUSE, aged about 46 years.
The deceased was a victim of that fell-destroyer—con
sumption. After a long and painful illness, which she
bore with that Christian fortitude characterized only by a
truly Christian heart, she calmly fell to sleep—that bleep
that knows no waking—trusting in Him who died, that
we might enjoy eternal life. At an early age sho joined
the Methodist Protestant Church, and was a devout and
consistent member until her death. She leaves many rel
atives anti friends to mourn her death. She has gone to
Heaven, why then, should we mourn? "Blessed are they
who die in the Lord."
Friends who have lingered 'round her dying bed,
And sighed a solemn-long-last farewell;
As she vainly tried to lift her aching head,
To whisper with her parting breath—" All is well!"
She has passed to her long sought home,
Tears cannot bring her back to us again;
Her happy spirit in verdure fields to roam,
Clothed i❑ radiant robes without stain."
RS. 3.IcCULLOCH & SNARE, ,

services to the cit izens of Huntingdon and vicinity,

CAUTION.-
I caution all persons against purchasing a note
drawn in favor of J. Hellor, for $40,00, dated September
