    THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DP:MOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C.
THE GLOBE.
Huntingdon, Monday, Sept. 24, 1860
LOCAL & PERSONAL_
NOTICE.—We go to press on Monday, two
days earlier than usual, that our hands may
have a few days leisure to see the sights.
PARKER'S SEWING MACIIINE.—This popu
lar machine is now on exhibition and for sale
at Bricker's Store room. Call and see it.
Ze'' Sunday School and family Libraries
and all other books published by the Ameri
can Sunday School Union, furnished to order
on application at Lewis' Book Store, where
catalogues of Books can be seen.
ga - - A. fine assortment of Musical Instru
ments just received at Lewis' Book, Statione
ry and Music Store, such as Flutinas, Accor
deons, Guitars, Violins, Flageolets, Flutes,
Fifes ; also Bows, Strings, Key's, bridges,
Rosin, &c., &e.
The Committee on decorating the town,
with the assistance of the ladies, have been
actively at work for several days, and we
think they will receive the universal praise of
our citizens and all visitors. They certainly
well deserve it.
NEW MILLINERY ESTABLISHMENT.—The la
dies generally should call on Mrs. Hamer,
one door west of the re: dence of Dr. Dorsey,
and examine her stock of goods. Mrs. Ha
mer will use her best efforts to please all.—
Give her a call.
GRAND CONCERT. —The ILASOI.I Brothers
will give a Grand Vocal Concert at the Court
House, on Tuesday evening, Sept. 25th.—
herever they have given Concerts they have
had full houses, which is the best evidence
that they give full satisfaction. Go and hear
theta.
A VERY LARGE PRESENT.—On Friday last
we received from Mrs. Daniel Protzman, of
McConnellstown, the largest cluster of large
tomatoes we ever saw. It weigiled four
pounds and eleven ounces. In the same
basket we received a large variety of other
very fine tomatoes. Mr•s. P. will please
accept our the nks.
Gentleman wanting a fine suit of
Clothing should 'call ou Robt. Ring, who has
just received a fine assortment of Cloths,
Cassitneres, and Vestings, which he will
make up to order in the most fashionable
style. Call and examine his goods. En
courage home industry, especially when you
can be accommodated at home with as good
an article as you can fret abroad.
AwFur. ACCIDENT.—A man named - Rolm
Morgan, formerly of this place, whilst driving
a load of shingles into Tipton, on Wednesday
the 12th inst., fell from his horse, and the
wheels of the wagon passed over him, break
ing his leg in several places, and crashing
his head in a most shocking manner. Dealh
ensued immediately. We are informed that
he was a man of intemperate habits, and
that at the time of the accident he was very
much intoxicated. He leaves a family. The
Tyrone Ste w • says, a singular coincidence oc
curs by this accident. Last fall the same
wagon that ran over Morgan was instrumen
tal in the death of Wm. Pruner, which oc
curred near Bald Eagle Furnace. Both were
horrible affairs.
ALL ComiNG.—The lovers of fun, the care
less lookers-on, the soldiers, the exhibit:Ors at
the fair, the little and big politicians with
their friends and relatives, and every body
else, will be in town this week. We expect
the candidates for office will be busy looking
up votes. The " handsome member" we
have no doubt will make more fair promises
than all the rest of the candidates put togeth
er, but as the people ought to know him by
this time we have no fears of him doing
Scott any serious injury. Scott is at home
here and is known. He needs no puffing to
give him position as a perfectly upright and
reliable man—just the kind of man all who
aspire to a seat in the Senate "or House of
- Representatives should. be. Africa too, for
the House, is just what all Representatives
should be, honest and capable.
Tun END or Sinn lER.—The reign of Sum
mer has ended, and we have fairly entered
upon the sea , gon of the " sere and yellow
leaf," our deligtful and unrivalled Amer
ican Autumn. The harvest is past— the
Summer is ended—the morning songs of
the Wild feathered warblers have ceased—
the leaves of variegated hue are already
making their appearance on the forest trees
—and soon the voice of the katy-did and the
light of the glow-worm will usher in the au
tumnal evenings. How short thime seems
since spring was with us; how swiftly do the
seasons pass! The years of hnman life have
very aptly been compared to the degrees of
longitude, which shorten as we approach the
poles. The ardent youth thinks the years
of fearful length until he attains matul.ity—
then they seem to shorten, and decrease with
every subsequent period of life's journey, un
til be exclaims with Job, " My days are
swifter than a weaver's shuttle." Autumn
is the most delightful season, teeming with
the fruitition of the year—the harvests are
gathered, the fruits .are ripe, and plenty
abounds. It infuses a soothing and tran
quilsing influence over the mind, and dispos
es to contemplation and gratitude.
WIDE AWAKES.—Every town of any impor
tance has its political wide awakes, but we
notice that the merchants are wider awake in
our town than the politicians. For several
days past our pavements have been jammed
with boxes filled with new goods for the thou
sands of customers expected this week. Of
course great inducements will be offered to all
who call, to purchase handsome bills. We have
looked around a little and find that all our
regular advertisers are ready for the crowd.
Our neighbor Westbrook has a large and
splendid stock of Boots and Shoes for all ages.
And across the way, Fisher & Son, have a
magnificent stock of new goods. Brown, to
our right, has everything in the hardware
line, and some things a little out of it to ac
commodate his customers. A few doors be
low us we find D. P. Gwin, with an immense
stock of new goods—and' just below him is
Benj. Jacobs with an assortment of dry goods,
clothing &c. We cross the street and find
that 11. Roman has been wide awake, for he
has just opened a large stock of new clothing
for fall and winter. On the corner you will
find Gutman & Co., also well prepared with
a large stock of new clothing for fall and win
ter. Under Gutman's room you will find C.
Long with a fine stock of groceries and con
fectioneries—and in the old temperance ball
building you will find G. Ashman Miller who
has just laid in a fine assortment of goods
generally, dry•goods, groceries, confection
erieß, etc. Immediately opposite, you will
find Wallace & Clement; they too have a fine
stock of dry-goods, groceries, etc. We don't
believe the town was ever so well supplied
with goods of all kinds as it is at this time,
and we knoW the gentlemen named are all
anxious to sell at very fair profits. Give them
a call.
