PICK UP THAT PIN !—A pin is a very little thing, we confess; and so far as value is concerned is not of much ac count. And yet we freely acknowl edge that we scarcely ever pass a pin but what we feel an inclination to bend the back and pick it up. And why so? Well for this simple reason, that in the practice of - stooping to secure a lost pin or any other object however mi nute or unimportant, we are cultiva ting a habit of carefulness and econo my which is destined to govern us in our every-day life, and which fits us not only to make our living in an hon est and proper manner, but also secure something besides, and lay it by for the time of sickness or of old age. It is a fact which cannot be denied, that an honest man makes more through habits of frugality and economy, than he does by actual toil; and he who is careful to take care of little things, will find that he can easily manage those which are greater. We read, not long ago, of a young man who was in search of employment, and for this purpose went with a letter of introduction to the President of a certain Bank and solicited a clerkship. For some reason or oth er the application was unsuccessful, and the young man turned away with a heavy heart, and again sought the street. Just as he stepped out on the pavement his eye caught sight of a pin which lay at his feet, and being in the habit of picking up pins, he instantly stooped down and picked this one up and stuck it in his coat. The Presi dent of the Bank who had just denied his application, and who was standing at the window of the Bank, and saw the young man pick up the pin, imme diately called him back and thus ad dressed him :—" Young man, I have hanged my mind in regard to your application, and have now determined to give you employment; and the rea son for this change is this : I saw you, a moment ago, stoop down and pick up a pin, and I have concluded that one so careful in little things, will make ti careful and trusty clerk for me, and you may go to work." Thus the picking up of a pin was a happy turning point of this young man's life. CURE FOR DRUNKENNESS.—There is a famous prescription in England, says the Springfield _Republican, for the cure of drunkenness, by which thousands are said to have been assisted in re covering themselves. The receipt. came into notoriety through the efforts of John Vine Hail, father of Rev. New man Hall, and Capt. Vine Hall, com mander of the Great Eastern steam ship. He had fallen into such habitual drunkenness that his most earnest ef forts to reclaim himself proved una vailing. At length he sought the ad vice of an eminent physician, who gave him a prescription which he followed faithfully for seven months, and at the end of that time he had lost all desire for liquors, although he had been for many years led captive by a most de basing appetite. The recipe, which be afterwards published, and by which so many other drunkards have been assisted to reform, is as follows : " Sul phate of iron, 5 grains; magnesia, 10 grains; eppermin t water, 11 - drachms ; spirit of mutmeg, 1 drachm; to be taken twice a day." This preparation acts as a tonic and stimulant, and so par tially supplies the place of the accus tomed liquor, and prevents that abso lute physical and moral prostration that follows a sudden breaking off from the use of stimulating drinks. In cases where the appetite for liquors is not too strong, tiie medicine supplies the place of the accustomed drams entirely, but Mr. Hall continued the use of li quors at first with the medicine, di minishing the amount gradually until he was able to throw away his bottle and glass altogether, after which he continued to take the medicine a month or two, till he felt that he was wholly restored to self-control, and could re joice in a sound mind and a sound body. OH..—We learn that James Entre kin, William S. Entrekin and Simon Cohn, are boring for oil in the neigh borhood of Coffee Run, with strong in dications of success. Hope they may strike veins of the pure stuff. BROAD To COAL—The tight "times have not destroyed the coal business on Broad Top. We learn that the de mand is steadily on the increase.— "Uver 30,000 tons have been taken east over the Pennsylvania Railroad, since the first of Januarv. DWARF PEARS.—The editor of the American. Agriculturist, in his April number, says :—" Last spring we set out 64 trees from the nursery, on a plot GO feet square, and though they were transplanted the latter part of May, when in bloom, every one is now alive, notwithstanding the clrouth of tho summer; moreover, the half a dozen trees which we allowed to fruit the first, year, contrary to what we should advise as a rule, each bore from 7 to 20 splendid pears." Messrs. Taylor & Cremer, of Hun tingdon, have a large assortment of bearing Dwarf Pear Trees, which they are selling at reduced prices. Also at auction on Tuesday and Thursday of next week—Apple, Peach, and Dwarf Pear trees. HOTEL CIIANGES.-001. Grains Mil ler has moved into the "Jackson Ito tol," and is furnishing it in a hand some style with new furniture. Col. John S. Hiller may now be found at the "Exchange Ilotel"—he too will make great improvements for the ac commodation and comfort -of visitors. Mr. John Dell, from McCon nellsto wn , has opened out a Hotel in Portstown, the old stand for many years occupied as a private dwelling by,Esquire Port. It will be an excellent stopping place for our Woodcock Valley people, who do not , like to cross the railroad with their horses. - Mr. John Dean has taken the "Hun tingdon House," lately occupied by P. McAteer. MOVING DAY.—On Monday last, at an early hour, our town was in great commotion. If our memory had not been refreshed by a demand for mon ey, it being the first of April and al most every man's pay day, we would have almost affirmed that our people had been threatened by the Southern fillibusters. Wagons loaded with eve ry article of household furniture could be seen in every street, and men, wo men, boys and girls were loaded down with chairs, looking-glass, etc., etc.— Such a getting up and down stairs we never want to experience. A LECTURE.—The Rev. James Col der, of Harrisburg, and - late Missiona ry to the Chinese, will lecture on Chi na, in the German Reformed Church, at McConnellstown, on next Saturday evening, at 7 o'clock.

A full attendance is solicited. OUR NEIV POST MASTER.—Who's to be our new P. M. is no longer in doubt. Mr. Geo. A. Steel takes the prize. The other candidates must stand " out in the cold." Mr. Steel is a very clever man, and we hope he may have the busbies of the office so conducted as to give general satisfaction. We would suggest one improvement,—close the doors while the mails are being open ed. BOROUGH ELECTION.—The election in the borough on Monday last, result ed in the success of the following gen tlemen : Chief Burgess, A. Willoughby. Burgess for 3 years, Dr. E. Snare. Town Council, F.

EDITOR :- The great event that has taken place during the past week in our town, has been the examination and public exhibition of the students of Milnwood Academy. These exhibi tions in the spring and fall, are the two great gala days in Shade Gap, and never All to attract hundreds of visitors to our town: The interest manifested at the late exhibition, was equal to that of any former occasion. Our town was thronged for days, not only with the parents and relatives of the pupils at this time in the Institu tion, but with strangers from every part of the surrotinding country. All was bustle and excitement. Our streets were thronged with happy groups of old men and women, young men and maidens, hastening to and fro, and every countenance seemed to express the joyous emotions of the heart. SCHOOL 11.0031 The school room in which the ex aminations took place, is large, being forty by sixty feet, capable of seating several hundred. This was elegantly decorated with wreaths of evergreens, hanging in graceful fbstoons, display ing - much taste in the pupils and young ladies who assisted in these decora tions. The stage covered with rich carpet, and the windows dressed with scarlet curtains, and the whole house filled with beauty and flishion, and brilliantly illuminated from the three elegant chandeliers suspended from the ceiling, presented at once a scene that was highly enchanting to the view. I=l The examinations were conducted Tuesday and Wednesday by the dif ferent Professors. Eighteen different classes were examined, averaging sev en and a half pupils to each class, making a suns total of one hundred and thirty separate or individual ex aminations. These embraced Latin and Greek, History, and Philosophy, Physiology, Geometry and Algebra.— The primary studies of Spelling and Reading, Geography, Grammar and Arithmetical Science, also received their full share of attention. These examinations were thorough and im partial ; not on certain lessons assign ed, but upon all the pupil had been through during the past session. Fre quent opportunity was given and em braced,for any one of the audience to propose any question on the subject under examination. The blackboard held a conspicuous place in these ex aminations, on which many had prob lems worked out with accuracy.— The promptness with which difficult questions in Mental Arithmetic were solved, was quite astonishing to many. The whole examination, we think, re flected much credit on teachers and pupils. • PUBLIC 'EX lIII3IT lON The public exhibition took place on Wednesday evening, when hundreds filled the house to its utmost capacity. The exercises consisted chiefly in de clamation by the young gentlemen, and compositions read by the young ladies, interspersed with songs by the vocal class, and (Melts on the piano.— Many acquitted themselves well, and we see no reason why some of them may not make a 'Henry Clay or Daniel Webster. The dialogues were rich in humor and wit, and well performed, and frequently brought down the whole house in roars of laughter and applause. The "Limerick Boy," will long be remembered for his rich Irish brogue and a just appreciation of the true Irish character. PAINTINGS There was exhibited quite a rich va riety of Grecian and Oriental paint ings, and paintings in water colors; also, pencil and monochromatic draw ings, all of which were the handiwork of the young ladies during the past session, showing much taste and skill in the cultivation of the fine arts.— Music is also taught on the piano, of which exhibitions were given by a number of the young ladies, at inter vals, during the examination. BRASS BAND. The Brass Band from Newton Ham ilton was present during these anni versary exercises, and added much to the interest of the occasion by their soul-stirring music. This is said to be one of the best bands in the interior of the State of Pennsylvania. The young men composing it are gentlemen, well behaved, and their music elicited uni velsal praise. _CONCLUSION In conclusion we would add that Milnwood Academy is situated in one of the most healthy and picturesque sections of.our country, in the midst of a well-educated and intelligent peo ple. Professor W. 11. Woods, the Prin cipal, has had many years of experi ence in teaching, and is - thoroughly qualified for his position, and devotes himself with unwearied diligence to the best interests of his pupils. This Institution is in an admirable condi tion, well officered, well govereucd and well taught, and its entire manage ment seems admirably adapted to ac complish the end for which it was founded by the now sainted McGinnis. Few Institutions in our land are better adapted to secure a good education and preserve the morals of the young. Parents, therefore, would do well to send their sons and daughters to Miln wood Academy at Shade Gap, where a thorough education may be acquired on the most reasonable terms. The next Session opens the first Wednesday in May. X. Y. Z. LETTER FROM 'OCCASIONAL." CASSVILLE, Mardi 28, 1861 FItIEND LEWIS : Again I would seat myself to give you the most important news in this locality. The election passed off quiet ly with some few cases of that baneful drug strychnine. Party reins were not very strictly drawn except in some two or three cases. As a matter of course there were any number of pa triots ready and willing to serve their country. The following is a list of the victorious candidates : Chief Burgess, John Moyer; Assistant Burgess, G. W. B. Sipe; Judge, John Fronk ; . Inspec tors, E. B. Hissong, D. IL Heaton ; School Directors, D. Clarkson, Joshua Greenland ; Town Council, Aaron W. Evans, Joseph P. Heaton, John S. Gehrett, Lemuel Green, Jacob Cress well; Supervisor, Nicholas Miller, Sen.; Assessor, Jacob Cresswell; Assistant Assessors, John S. Gehrett, Win. Sny der; High Constable, Austin Green; Borough Constable, Isaac Ashton. The evacuation of Fort Suinpter was not very fiworably received" here by a part of the Republicans. They think it looks too much like backing out; but that has been one of their mottoes ever since they came into existence. By the way, the young folks in this vicinity believe as much in matrimony as ever. Time and space will only permit me to record a few instances. On Thursday 21st inst., by Rev. Jo seph Cottrell, Mr. John M. Stever and Miss Lizzie, daughter of Lewis R. Cor bin, all of Cass township. On Tues day evening 2f3th inst., by Rev. J. A. Coleman, Mr. Nicholas Miller, Jr. and Miss Rachel J., daughter of James Poston, all of Cass township. In re gard to their future welfare, I wish them health, wealth and happiness, may their voyage down the river of life be happy and prosperous. More anon. OCCASIONAL. LETTER FROM " LEROY." Afechanicsbury—An Old Acquaintance— Literary Institutions. 3.lEcHANicsßuno, Maich, 1861 Beautiful is' the situation of Me chanicsburg ! It lies in the very heart of Cumberland Valley—only nine miles from the Capital of the State. As we were on our way to Chain bersburg, we stopped off to spend the Sabbath with our old friend R. W. Black, a native of Huntingdon, who is now Pastor in the M. E: Church of this place. With him we visited the literary instiutions of the place. "Ir ving Female College," which, under the supervision of an able faculty, is enjoying the patronage of a wide ex tent of country, and doing good work for the cause or education. We had the pleasure of ,taking tea with the young ladies, and'ean testify to indulgent Pa's and Ma's, who trem ble lest their darlings should be starv ed, that the young ladies of '° Irving Female College," do not live on bread and molasses. During the evening, we visited the " Cumberland Valley Institute," now under the control of the Messrs. rge. They seem to have a goodly number of students, and,are building up a re putation that will, doubtless, soon, greatly increase the attendance. Their course of instruction is thor ough, and conducted according to the most approved method of teaching. One peculiar feature of the above mentioned Institutions, is the moral and religious influence that surrounds the pupils. No parents, however solicitous, about the religious train ing of their children, need fear to send them to either of these places of learning; for the Professors and their assistants are men and women of God, devoted to their work, and have at heart the spiritual as well as the phys ical and mental improvement of those entrusted to their care. lUsaiclibl-C41101 , 044 All persons indebted to me for sub scription to "The Union,'' advertising or job work, will save costs by paying their -bills be/we the 20th inst.

It has nlreudy passed through a number of editions in rapid succession, and is pronounced by all classes of bnalaesa men to be the handiest book of reference, pertaining to calculations, that hos ever been published. Every example in the hook is worked out in full and stated in n plain manner, no that when a parallel Case ari ses, those referring to the work will find no difficulty in solving it; in a word; the general arrangement of the CALCULATOR is simple, Mutt any Ono vain knows how to add, subtract, multiply and divide, can easily solve any or dinary example that - arises in business, or arrive at thd true tcanit of any estimate tent:llnd. The chief aim of the author has been to eschew theory nod philosophy In figures, aiming only at facts and slmpll. city. believing that business men care little about 'pen• ding, time in discussing the philosophy of roles, or tha science of figures. deeming it sufficient for their purpose to be able at a moment, by reference, to arrive at the true result.
