Huntingdon, Wednesday, Oct. 3, 1860
LOCAL & PERSONAL.
CAMP PATTERSON.—For a week previous to
the commencement of the Encampment and
Fair at this place, the Committee appointed
for the purpose, were busily engaged in mak
ing arches over the streets, and by Monday
morning of the Encampment, they completed
their work, having erected eight on Hill street,
beside three or four on Washington street,
and ono on the corner of Smith and Alleghe
ny streets. The citizens of Hill street, deco
rated the fronts of their houses with wreaths
and festoons ; and we noticed several houses
in the back streets also suitably and tastily
arranged. Altogether, our town presented
rather a grand spectacle, and speaks well for
our citizens. No pains were spared in mak
ing it look beautiful, which, we are proud to
say, pleased every one who was fortunate
enough to be in our midst.
At an early hour on Monday morning the
soul-stirring and spirit-reviving music of the
drum and fife greeted our ears and soldiers
made their appearance on our streets, equipped
for service. The Standine--Stone Guards of
this place, were out in full trim, receiving
companies of soldiers that were coming in
from every direction. [Here a list of the
officers and companies present should be in
serted, but we were not furnished with a re
port of the same, neither could we find any
one who appeared to care or know anything
about it. However, there were twenty-two
companies in attendance, nd between 8,000
and 40,000 people.]
Tuesday morning,dawned upon us beautiful
and clear, the rays of old Sol reflecting bright
ly over all creation. The crowd was largely
on the increase and more soldiers coming in.
Many sights were to be seen and everybody
were out eight-seeing. A detachment of sol
diers from Camp were sent into town in the
morning to take under arrest all the soldiers
to be found in town and march them back to
Camp. As soon as the news spread abroad
a general stampede took place among the sol
diers from the hotels and other places of re
sort. Some running one way and some an
other, hotly pursued by the guard ; some es
caped and others were taken triumphantly
back to headquarters. A high wind pre
vailed during the morning, which blew a
portion of a chimney off the Franklin House,
the bricks falling into a crowd that was stand
ing on the pavement in front of the house,
and strange as it may appear, nobody was
hurt. Quite an excitement prevailed. We
visited the Encampment grounds in the after
noon, where a large crowd had congregated
to witness the soldiers go through the mili
tary evolutions. Taking all things into con
sideration, they did remarkably well. The
roads were a perfect sea of dust, which made
it rather unpleasant but nobody seemed to
mind it.
Wednesday was another fine day, with very
high wind. The crowd was immense, the
dust awful. Conveyances to and from the
Camp in abundance, all filled to overflowing
with passengers. It is estimated that there
wasbetween eight and twelve thousand peoplo
in town. The streets were lined, bar-rooms
and shops crowded, and the road leading to
the Camp literally jammed with people, some
on foot and some in carriages and hacks.—
The soldiers made a fine display of their mil
itary skill, which pleased everybody. All
the realities of Camp life were enacted, to
the delight of visitors and satisfaction of of
and soldiers. The soldiers were a gay
set of fellows. They made great snort for
the visitors. Singing and dancing were car-
tied on extensively in and about the tents.
Thursday was dark and dreary, black clouds
hanging over head, and rain falling almost
incessantly until about the middle of the af
ternoon.
the
the unfavorable
state of the weather, the crowd was still larger
than on the day previous. The trains from
every direction came in crowded with people,
and hundreds were unable to get on at some
stations along the road. , There was a perfect
jam in town. The hotels, shops, and private
houses were all tilled, yet hundreds were not
accommodated with anything more than they
could eat, and some didn't even get that.—
This was the day fair the grand parade of the
military. The Division was reviewed in the
morning by Gen. Bell, and in the afternoon
a grand parade came off. The Division was
brought into town and paraded through the
different streets, where they presented a grand
appearance and behaved like good soldiers.
On Friday military excitement was on the
decline. The - Camp broke up in the after
noon. By invitation they visited the Fair
(which we notice in another place,) in the
forenoon, to see and be seen, after which they
disbanded and returned to their homes weary
and fagged, but welt satisfied with the bene
fits derived from regular military duty. The
military of Huntingdon county probably have
a better idea of soldier's life now than they
ever had before. The simple shouldering of a
musket or the putting on of a uniform, does
not make a soldier; nor does the marching
on our streets on the Fourth of July, or the
anniversary of Washington's birth-day, or on
other like occasions, resemble at all military
life. Something more is required ; and we
think in the lesson taught in "Camp Patter
son," and Camps fur similar purposes, will
be planted the germ that will create the brave
soldier, and in the time of our countrY's need
either for internal disorder, or for external
foes, will show its effects.
BADLY HOAXED.--A telegraphic dispatch
to the Philadelphia papers from this place on
the night of the accident, stated that a large
Republican meeting was being held here, and
that the crowd was at the depot to receive
delegations coming in. The truth is, there
were no delegations in that train, neither had
delegations arrived in any other train for the
purpose of attending a Republican meeting.
The meeting that was to be, would have been
a failure, even had the accident not occurred.
A dog fight in any public street in town du
ring the exciting days of last week, would
Lave brought together as large a crowd as
any of the Republican orators could have
gone.
DEII ()CRITIC MEETING AT SAULSBURG.-A
Democratic ;meeting will be held at Saulsburg
on Friday next. John Scott, Esq., and others
will address the meeting. The voters of the
surrounding country are requested to turn
out and attend the meeting.
Ile- Two small children belonging to Mr.
John McCabe, were burnt inn horrible man
ner one day last week. It is thought they
will recover.
The Prince of Wales passed through
this place in a special train last night, on his
way to Washington.
TITE Rim—Notwithstanding
_the excite
ment occasioned by the military, our annual
County Fair was well patronized. The dis
play of fruits,llowers, vegetables, grain, stock,
and mechanical implements, although not in
quite such an abundance as on some former
occasions, yet, we think the articles on exhi
bition will vie favorably with any ever before
exhibited in this county. Considerable inter
est was manifested by our country friends,
as well as those living in town.
The Fair was not devoid of out-side shows
either. Among the sights to be seen, and, in
deed, the principal one, was " dat wonderfel
papy, only seven months old and weighs pe
tween eighty and ninety pounds." It was
a wonderful papy indeed. Of all the beings
in human shape, we ever saw, this one takes
the lead. The poor child looked more like a
lump of fat than a live human being. We
have heard several good things gotten off at
the expense of the poor creature, but our
space will not admit of a rehearsal.
Another feature about the Fair, was a tent
erected along the board-walk leading through
West Huntingdon, with " wonderful sights"
innumerable, all of which could be seen for
"one dime." Connected with this establish
ment, was a target to be shot at with bow
and arrow. We saw several try their hands
at it, who made a poor fist at the business.—
We think any man would have been safe in
standing as a target at a distance of twenty
paces.
Among the novel sights we witnessed on
the Fair grounds on Friday morning, was an
elephant, belonging to our military friends.
The uiilita•-v were on the grounds by special
invitation, and in order to amuse the people,
they got up a mock elephant. It was rather
a funny sight, and seemed to please every
body that saw it.
Eating tents and refreshment tables were
in abundance on the Fair grounds. Our
Methodist friends also had a table set, fir the
purpose of raising money to help defra,: the
expenses incurred in introducing gas into
their church.
The Excelsior Cornet Band of this place,
discoursed sweet music on the Fair ground,
to the infinite delight of all present. -
The net receipts of the Fair will amount
to about the sand as last year.
FATAL ACCIDENT— TWO Men Killed and a
Third Seriously lujured.—On Thursday even
ing last, just at the time the Fast Line was
due at the depot from the east, the Hunting
don Wide-Awakes were passing down Rail
road street, with the Band in front, attracting
the attention of the great crowd of people
which filled the pavements and the street
from Jackson's Hotel to the Station. The
train, instead of stopping at the Station, ran
some distance above the Exchange lintel, and
the crowd either not noticing the arrival of
the train, or not expecting it to pass the Sta
tion without stopping, was suddenly run into,
and strange to say, but two men were killed,
and one, though severely injured internally,
is thought to be- out of danger. .Peter Mc-
Carthy, a single man from Alexandria, was
run over, cutting and tearing his body in a
most frightful manner, and scattering it along
the track fur several yards. James McMa
hon, a man of family, was struck down by
the cow-catcher and badly cut on the head
and otherwise injured. He lived for about
two hours. The third, Francis Kane of Stone
Creek, a young man, was struck on the breast
and thrown heavily outside of the track. He
was taken away insensible bnt recovered du
ring the night, and is now thought to be in a
fair way to be about again in a few days.—
No others were injured, but thousands were
badly frightened. How it happened that
there were not a much greater number killed
and crippled, surprises every one who was
an eye-witness to the accident.
L:quests were held by David Snare, Esq.,
and the verdicts of the juries censure those
in charge of the train with gross neglect of
duty. As we expect a full investigation of
the sad affair by the Company or our Court,
we shall defer expressing an opinion as to
who should be held responsible for the acci
dent.
TnE CROWD.—Never have we seen, nor
never do we want to see again, such a crowd
in the " ancient borough," as was here last
week. The crowd was too great to count—
we can only say the town was full—chuck
full and running over. Hundreds were una
ble to secure comfortable lodgings on Wed
nesday and Thursday nights. After filling
every room in the hotels, and almost all the
private houses being thrown open for lodgers,
the Court Room - was warmed up where many
passed the night of Thursday. It was a tre
mendous mass meeting of all parties, so close
ly packed that it was impossible to get a di
vision to ascertain which of the Presidential
candidates had a majority of the voters. All
agreed, however, that Foster would be elected
Governor by a large majority.
On Saturday last we were present at
one of the largest, if not Me largest Demo
cratic meeting ever held on Broad Top. The
meeting was held at Barnetstown, and was
ably addressed by John Scott, R. AL Speer,
and J. Simpson Africa. We were pleased to
see that the right spirit prevailed amongst
the hard working operatives of that region.
The Abolition-Republican Know Nothings
cannot deceive the honest miners into the
support of their candidates. A torch-light
procession came off in the evening. We ex
pect a good report from Carbon next week.
Pecs-Pomnrs.—Quite a number of pick
pockets were in attendance at the Encamp
ment and Fair. A Mr. Jesse Jones, of Fan
nettbursg, Franklin county, had his pocket
picked of $440, and several notes of consid
erable amount, whilst entering the cars on
Thursday evening. We heard of several
other cases c,f similar import on the Encamp
ment and Fair grounds. The amounts, how
ever, were small.
GOOD Brann.—Last week we received from
Mrs. Daniel Piper of this place, a loaf of fine
bread. We never want better, and hope her
flour - barrel may never get empty.
A llANnsomc BOQUET.—Mrs: Massey has
our thanks for a very beautiful boquet left at
our sanctum last week.
Mr. Curtin's Services and. Promises.
We have never thought that gratuitous at
tacks upon the personal character of political
opponents are-the best means of bolstering
our own candidates or damaging the success
of our rivals. In the present canvass we
have abstained from personal allusions to the
candidate of the Abolition party for Governor
of this State, not because we believe him to
be immaculate, or because we are not per
fectly aware that his most intimate friends
and ardent supporters know him to be any
thing else but immaculate, or even safe un
less hedged about with a strong wall of cir
cumstances over which there is no escape,
and within whose bounds there are no dan
gerous pitfalls into which he may decoy, dupe,
or precipitate a rival. Not for such reasons.
have we refrained generally from criticisms on
the character and failings of Mr. Curtin, but
because we believe that general principles of
public policy and interest are the best sub
jects for discussion before the people, and the
tests of political success.
However, some of the newspaper advocates
of the Abolition cause have chosen to leave
the arena of politics and descend to slander
ous and scurrilous attacks upon Gen. Foster,
the Democratic candidate, a man whose char
acter is so far above all reproach, and whose
position is so superior to the platform of dem
agogueism that his opponents think proper to
libel him down to the standard of their own
party because they dare not meet him in the
presence of the people. _ _
The record of Mr. Andrew G. Curtin is not
a very long one, for he sprung into notoriety
upon the .fungus of Know-Nothingism, and
capped the climax of imbecility which distin
guished the administration of the amiable,
but unfortunate Pollock. While the tenden
cy and the desires of this gentleman were to
ward what he hoped was right, the restless
conceit and tricky proclivities of his premier
were forever bent upon evil, and that admin
istration was only safe from inanition when
plunged into vice. During the reign of Mr.
Pollock, while the Governor was meekly striv
ing to get himself through the ordeal of bas
tard politics with a conscience unseared and
a skin unsearred, his Secretary was indus
triously looking into the job-work and outside
emoluments of patronage.
And so it happened that under that dynas
ty of feeble intellect and forcible craft, the
good people of Pennsylvania were more ogre
griously duped and swindled than for many
a day before. The Bank trick—a favorite
scheme'among old hacks for enriching them
selves and their families and at the people's
expense—was displayed with great success.
And the currency was beautified and im
proved by such benign institutions as the
Shamokin Bank, which went down with fear
ful rapidity, but was subsequently revised
and now floats under the flag of one of the
Pollock family—the Central Bank, at Holli
daysburg, which broke up and left no trace
but debt—the 2ioga County Bank, a dead
swindle from the start—besides others, which
though called back to earth, live only to omit
the odor of the grave. Such are the booms
which the people got from the generalship of
Mr. Curtin, and such only increased fourfold
or more, may they expect, if this same ex-
Secretary Curtin should ever chance to be
Governor.
It has always been said of Curtin that he
was a strict disciplinarian in the school of
party, and that his levies on the poor appli
cants for office in consideration of their ap
pointment, is yet sorrowfully remembered by
many of his dupes. In fact, these demands
were so onerous that the party could not
keep up under the pressure, but the whole
army, rank and file together, dwindled away,
and none of the remains but the " gallant
Cul. Curtin," who reappears, mounted on the
Abolition charger—ready fur another tilt to
win the prize at Harrisburg.
What may the people of this State expect
with such an unscrupulous and time-serving
demagogue as Governor ? The man who
changes his politics at every canvass, and has
not a single recommendation except over
weening conceit and absurd confidence in
himself.—Pennsylvanian.
