THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED T
THE GLOBE.
Huntingdon, Wednesday, Nov. 21, 1860.
LOCAL & PERSONAL.
AN EARNEST REQUEST.—We have publish
ed the Globe regularly for fifteen years, du
ring which time thousands of dollars of ar
rearages for subscription and advertising,
have accumulated upon our books. We have
never pressed those of our friends in arrears,
for a settlement. But now, as we have in
contemplation some extensive improvements
in the size and appearance of the Globe at an
early day, we intend, before making those
improvements, to have the wheat sifted from
the chaff, and our books squared up. There
fore, all who are indebted to us are requested
to call before the Ist of December and square
their accounts. We hope there will be no
delay on the part of all our patrons in ar
rears. •We are politically defeated, but
neither frightened nor dismayed.
PHYSICAL BENEFITS OF SINGING.—The fol
lowing will be found among the good effects
accruing from the practice of singing :—A
frequent correction of defects in speech, in
cluding stammering, hissing, and nasal enun
ciation. Singing also improves the hearing;
for by listening to singing, they learn to dis
tinguish the relative positions of the notes
uttered by one voice. The ear thus becomes
practiced, and fully able to convey the close
distinction of tone to the seat of perception.
Singing, besides, is a great improvement to
the health of children ; notwithstanding, an
opinion to the contrary has been long current,
and that singing by young children in par
ticular has a baneful tendency, occasioning
spitting of blood and pulmonary diseases.—
However, recent scientific examinations in
Germany and elsewhere have demonstrated
the utter fallacy of this idea. Nothing is cal
culated more than singing to produce the
power of free perspiration, and so systemize
the breathing (if we may use the expression)
as to prevent or remedy the weakness of the
chest so often and so unjustly complained of.
There are other benefits to our physical na
ture, connected with the practice of singing,
of which we may speak more in detail here
after. Meanwhile, we must not forget the
moral and intellectual effects of singing.—
They are numerous, and even more obvious
than the physical.
EXPANDING 'THE CHEST.—Those in easy
circumstances, or who pursue sedentary in
door employment, use their lungs but little,
breathe but little air into the chest, and thus
independently of positions, contract a wretch
edly small chest, and lay the foundation of
the loss of health and beauty. All this can
be perfectly obviated . by a little attention to
the manner of breathing. Recollect the
lungs are like a bladder in the structure, and
can be stretched open to double the size with
perfect safety, giving a noble chest and per
fect immunity from consumption.
The agent and only agent required is the
common air we breathe, supposing, however,
that no obstacle exists, external to the chest,
such as - tying it around with stays, or having
the shoulders lie upon it. On rising from
bed in the morning,place yourself in an erect
posture, with your chest thrown back, and
the shoulders thrown entirely off the chest ;
now inhale all the air you can, so that no
more can be got in ; now hold your breath and
throw your arms behind, hold your breath
as long as possible. Repeat those breaths
as long as you please. Done in a cold room
it is much better, because the air is so much
denser and will act more powerfully in ex
panding the chest. Exercising the chest in
this manner, inflexible and expansive, and
will enlarge the capability and size of the
lungs.
WOODEN SCIIOOI, SLATES.—Since the man
ufacture of wooden nutmegs, in the State of
Connecticut, has ceased, the people have
turned their attention to the manufacture of
all sorts of Yankee notions, from patent sew
ing birds, in the manufacture of which a for
tune has been made, and wooden clocks, in
which fortunes have been made and lost, down
to campaign medals, of which one manufactu
rer turns out ten thousand per diem. About
the last invention contrived by these ingenious
people is the manufacture of school slates out
of wood. Not long ago, Messrs. Dean &
Munger, of- New Haven, Conn., took out a
patent, through the office of the Scientific
American, for the manufacture of this article,
and from their manifest superiority over the
old stone slate, they are going into almost uni
versal use. They are made of three thick
nesses of veneering glued together and cov
ered on both sides with a black coating of
just the proper degree of roughness to receive
the impression from the pencil, and are then
framed in the usual manner. Their most stri
king peculiarities are their extreme lightness
and durability ; they may be thrown down
and even stamped upon without being bro
ken. They are for sale at Lewis' Book and
Stationery Store.
A HINT FOR WASHING DAY.-It is said that
a little pipe-clay dissolved in the water em
ployed in washing will clean the dirtiest
clothes thoroughly,. with about one half the la
bor and full one half less the soap. Besides,
the clothes will be much improved in color.
AN OWNER. WANTED.-A pair of silver
frame spectacles and case were left in our
book store last week. As they are too old
foi our eyes, the owner can have them.
MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.-Mr. David
Bolger, an old and esteemed citizen of Mar
tinsburg, Blair county, disappeared from his
family on Wednesday night, Nov. 7th, since
which time nothing has been seen or heard
or him. Mr. Bolger, for some time previous
to his disappearance, had been much distress
ed in consequence of the death of a promising
son—which occurred in September last. He
bad apparently recovered from his affliction,
until a few days prior to his disappearance,
when his mind seemed partially to give way
under the power of his deep distress. On
the night of his departure, immediate search
was made for him by his family and citizens
of Martinsburg, and the search has been con
tinued up to the present time, but without
obtaining the shadow of a clue as to his fate
or whereabouts. Mr. Bolger is about 50
years of age, rather sharp features, and
about 5 feet 10 inches or 6 feet in height.--
He was dressed in a black frock coat and
black pants, morocco shoes, and a brown
straw hat. Any tidings of the missing man,
communicated to Rev. J. Hassler, J. C. Ever
hart, or A. S. Morrow, Martinsburg, Pa.,
will be gratefully received by his-family.
BOILED WHEAT FOR DESSERT.—Pick over and
wash a pint of white wheat, boil four hours,
put in salt the same as for rice ; refill with
boiling water, if more is needed ; stir often
the last half hour, being careful not to let it
burn ; cook it dry. Sometimes it looks starchy
but that soon disappears. Serve hot or cold
with sweet cream. This we think an excel
lent dessert, and very fine for invalids. An
other very rich dish for dessert can be made
of wheat, cooked like the above ; then boil a
quart of sweet milk, one cup of sugar, one
cup of raisins, currants, or any fruit, (raisins.
are preferable,) two beaten eggs ; cook slow
ly, and stir until it boils ; serve cold or hot,
without sauce. Or, after the wheat is washed,
soak it in warm water over night, keep it wet
till time for use, then simmer the water all
out of it, then add the milk and other ingre
dients, and use as above.
NOT GUlLTY.—Ruelufr the conductor, and
Armstrong the engineer, of the train which
killed two men in this place during the en
campment, were up for trial in our Court last
week. The charge of manslaughter could
not be sustained against either of them by
the evidence, and consequently both were ac
quitted. The evidence , we heard satisfied us
that the engineer and'brakestnen done all in
their power to check the speed of the train
before it passed the Station, but the condi
tion of the track, which was very slippery,
caused by rain and being walked upon by
the crowd above and below the Station,made
it impossible to check its speed, the wheels
slipping on the rails after they had been lock
ed. The only sure way to avoid accidents of
the kind is to keep off the track at all times:
BAD BOYS.—There are a large number of
bad boys in Huntingdon—and very bad boys,
too, are many of them—ranging from eight
to fifteen years of age, who are suffered to run
the streets day and night without restraint—
boys with parents and without parents—
well-dressed boys and ragged boys—boys
whose parents cannot control them, and boys
whose parents will not control them—all band
ed together and working in concert, exhibit
ing a degree of cunningness and intelligence,
in their way, to be expected only in evil doers
of maturer years. Whose fault is it that
there so many such in the town. Certainly
it is somebody's fault, and sombody should
see to it. A timely move in the proper di
rection may save some of them from the pen
itentiary or the gallows.
IMPURE WATER.—Set a pitcher of water in
a room, and in a few hours it will have ab
sorbed nearly all the respired and perspired
gasses in the room, the air of which will have
become purer, but the water utterly filthy.—
The colder the water is, the greater its capa
city to contain these gasses. At ordinary
temperatures a pint of water will contain a
pint of carbonic acid gas, and several pints of
amonia. This capacity is 'nearly doubled by
reducing the water to the temperature of that
of ice. Hence water, kept in the room awhile,
is always unfit for use. For the same reason
the water in a pump stock should all be
pumped out in the morning before any is
used. Impure water is more injurious to the
health than impure air.
COUNTERFEIT.- Counterfeit rives on the
Western Bank, of Philadelphia, exceedingly
close imitations of the genuine, have made
their appearance. The most perceptible dif
ference is in the shading of the words ' West
ern Bank' and ' Five Dollars.' In the spuri
ous it is heavier than in the genuine. The
signature of the Cashier on the spurious is
engraved, and the paper is poor and of a
smoky hue. But this, in all probability, is
one of the tricks of counterfeiters, in order
to get it described as such, and then to flood
the country with notes on paper equal to the
genuine. The only security the public at
large have, is to refuse, for the present, all
fives on this Bank.
SINGULAR ACCIDENT,--On Thursday of last
week, Frank, the youngest son of Mr. D. D.
Woods, of this place, met with a singular and
very painful accident. fie was playing on
the side-walk in front of his father's house,
when he fell—his chin striking the pavement
—and bit off the end of his tongue. Dr. Gem
mill, of Altoona, was sent for, who sewed on
the piece, but up . to this time it is not healed,
and causes the little fellow a great deal of
suffering.—Tyrone Star, of 14th inst.
I;fiic. The attendance at Court last week
was slim. The few gentlemen who gave us
a friendly call have our thanks. As we have
already ordered a new press and new type for
our improvements early in January, we do
hope all our friends in arrears will call, or
let us hear from them in a substantial way
through the mail, immediately. The enlarged
Globe, will be sent to those only who shall
appear upon our books at the time as paying
subscribers. We do not want to lose a single
name, but we must be receiving our subscrip
tions to enable us to stay in the Union. In
Union there is strength,
SENSIBLE. ADVICE.—The following sensible
advice we copy - from the last number of Go
dells Lady's Book. Read it :
" TAKE YOUR OWN PAPER.—Let us still.try
to impress this upon our subscribers. Take
your home paper before subscribing to any
other, it is a duty you owo, and one you
ought not to neglect. If you want the Lady's
Book also, take that in a club with your own
paper. You will save a dollar by the opera
tion."
The Lady's Book and Globe can be had for
$3 50 a year.
Irr DEMAND.—Since the election we have
had an almost constant demand for marriage
certificates. We have heard a rumor of two
or three " fusions" in this place " for better
or for worse," but as we have not the author
ity of the clergy, or the receipt of a cake, to
justify us in making them public we shall
try to keep the names of the parties interest
ed a secret.
DIARIES FOR 1861.—A fine assortment just
received and for sale at Lewis' Book Store.
Diaries should be in more general use. The
young man in particular should keep a Diary
in his pocket and note down something every
day in the year. A good, thought or a good
action carefully noted down every day during
1861 might produce good fruit in after life.
COS3IOPOLIT. , !_II ART ASSOCIATION.—We in
vite attention to the annual advertisement of
this Association in to-day's Globe. Mr. Jno.
J. Lawrence, Honorary Secretary, in this
place, will take pleasure in receiving sub
scribers.
.gam A fine stock of Violins, Strings, &c.,
Accordeons, Guitars, Flutes, Fifes
and Flageolets, for sale cheaper than the
same article can be bought in the cities—for
sale at Lewis' Book, Stationery and Music
Store.
A lIAND9oME ImpaovEmENT.—The County
Commissioners are erecting a handsome iron
fence in front of the Court House. The fence
was cast•and is being put up by Mr. John
M. Cunningham, of this place.
RESIGNED.—We notice by the Hollidays
burg papers that Rev. D. X. (Tonkin, D. D.,
has resigned his charge of the Presbyterian
congregation in that place, and intends re
moving to Parkesburg, Chester county.
THE PROCEEDINGS OF COURT.—After exam
ining the proceedings of last week, we come
to the conclusion to wait until they were put
in shape to be understood before we would
publish them. They shall appear next week.
SOMETHING EW AND 00033.—Just received
at Lewis' Book Store, a new article of writing
fluid. It costs but a trifle more and is much
superior to any writing inks.

THE GLOBE:
Ti.at OFFICIAL PAPER OF coivntEss
I PUBIS/a now my annual Prospectus of Tar DAILY
GLOBE, and VIE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND APPE'NDIX,IO re
mind subscribers, and inform those who may desire to
subscribe, that Congress will meet on the first Monday of
next December, when I shall resume publishing the above
named papers. They have been published so long, that
most public men know their character, and therefore I
deem it needless to give a minute account of the kind of
matter they will contain.
THE DAILY GLOBE will contain a report of the Debates in
both branches of Congress as taken down by reporters,
equal, at least, to any corps of short-hand writers in this,
or in any other country. A majority of them will each,
be able to report, verbatim, ten thousand words an hour,
while the average number of words spoken by fluent
speakers rarely exceeds seven thousand five hundred
words an hour, When the debates of a day do not make
more than forty-five columns, they will appear in The
Daily Globe of the next morning which will contain, also,
the news of the day, together with such editorial articles
as may be suggested by passing events.
TLIN CONGRIL;SIONAL GLOBE AND APPEND= will contain a
report of all the Debates in Congress, revised by the
speakers, the Messages of the President of the United
States, the Annual Reports of the Head of the Executive
Departments, the Laws passed during the session, and co
pious indexes to all. They will be printed on a double
royal sheet, in book form, royal quarto size, each number
containing sixteen pages. The whole will make, it is be
lieved, at least 2,000 pages. This is acknowledged to be
the cheapest work ever sold in any country, whether a re
print or printed from manuscript copy, taking for data the
average number of words it contains.
The coming session 'will, without doubt, be an unusual
ly interesting one ,
because the debates will, in a great
measure, be upon the policy of the Prestdent elect, and
The Globe will be, as it has been for many years past, the
only source from which full debates of Congress can be
obtained.
THE CONGIIESBIONAL GLOBE AND APPENDIX pass free
through the mils of the United States, as will he seen by
reading the following Joint Resolution passed by Congress
the 6th of August, 1852 :
Joint Resolution providing for the distribution of the
Laws of Congress and the Debates thereon.
With a view to the cheap circulation of the laws of Con
gress and the debates contributing to the truo interpre
tation thereof, and to make free the communication be
tween the representative and constituent bodies :
Be it resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives
of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That
from and after the present session of Congress, the CON
GRESSIONAL Gtonr. AND APPENDIX, which contain the laws
and the debates thereon, shall pass free through the mails
so long as the same shall be published by order of Congress:
Provided, That nothing herein shall be construed to au
thorize the circulation of the DAILY GLOBE free of postage.
Approved August 6,1852.
TERMS:
For a • yof THE DAILY GLOBE, for four months, $3 00
For copy of THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND AP
PENDIX, during the session, 3 00
For 2 copies ditto, when ordered at the same
time, 5 00
No attention will be paid to any order unless the money
accompany it.
Bank notes current in the section of the country where
a subscriber resides, will be received at par. The whole
or may part of a subscription may be remitted in postage
stamps, which is proforable to any currency, except gold
or silver.
