• NEW ARRANGEMENT ON THE BROAD
Tor ROAD.—On the first of June, Win.
B. Zeigler, Esq., commences a contract
for carrying the Mail, Express, and
Passengers over the Huntingdon and
Broad Top Road. Mr. Ziegler fur
nishes the curs and the power, and we
are pleased to learn that one of the
Steam Passenger Cars of Griec & Long,
is to be put upon the' road. We find
the following notice of the new Steam
Passenger Cars in the Philadelphia In
quirer ofbApril 2d :
Trial of a Steam Passenger Car.—
We have before noticed the Steam
Passenger Cars of Griec & Long. On
Saturday, we had the pleasure of an
excursion upon one, on a trial trip to
Trenton and back, which was emi
nently successful.
The cars are intended to take the
place of the heavy locomotive and
train, where the travel is not adequate
to the expense of running them, and
where it is desirable to establish linos
running trips in quick succession, stop
ping at any point on the road, where
a passenger may desire to enter or
leave, and thus afford accommodations
to a large number who would , not
otherwise ride. To enable this to be
done,' however, a cheap and easily
managed power, and one not liable to
require repairing often, (which is so
great an item of expense in locomo
tives) must be had, and this, it seems
to us, Messrs. Grice & Long have found.
The car we rode in was built for a
Southern road, is 37 feet long; it has
scats for thirty-six passengers; also,
,a
baggage room six feet long ; together
with a saloon and mail. room. The
machinery is on the platform, in front
of the car, in a remarkably small
space, and acts on the drivers -by
means of gearing, which runs so
smoothly and noiselessly that no one
would suspect the mode of applying
the power, Coal is used for fuel, which
is also on the platform in bunkers, and
within arms' length of the , engineer.
The water is held in a tank Under the
baggage room, and coal and water are
carried for twenty-five miles. The
speed attained was at the rate of
twenty-eight miles per hour. Tlfe run
ning time to Bristol was forty-five
minutes ; to Trenton, eighty minutes,
including stops. Time from Trenton
to Kensington Depot—thirty miles—
sixty-eight minutes. The entire weight
of ear, with time! and water for twenty
five miles, is only eleven tons. The
economy of this arrangement is such
that an engineer and conductor are
only required to manage it; the 'con
ductor, when necessary, acting as
brakeman ; but a powerful brake is at
the engineer's hand, to be operated the
moment of shutting oif steam, and the
distance in which it. can_ be stopped
when running at full speed is very
short. The reduced wear of the rail,
compared with the lurching engine, is
also an item of great importance,
whilst the consumption of fuel will
not exceed seven pounds of coal per
mile run. The gentlemen present ex
pressed great pleasure in the success
of the trip, and it was agreed by all
hands that the interests of stockhold
ers and the convenience of suburban
residents, doing business in
,the city,
as well as land owners who have build
ing lotS on the lines of roads, would
be greatly increased by the use of such
cars. A line of such cars running to
Haddonfield, on the Camden and At
lantic road, or on the Trenton road to
Bristol and back, or like localities,
every hour or half hour, would soon
pe the means of springing up a con
tinuous line of suburban residences,
the business of which would greatly
increase dividends to stockholders.
Messrs. G. & L. have constructed
several of these ears, which they are
about shipping away, and have recent
ly taken other like orders, one of
whiclf is for the Huntingdon and Broad
Top Railroad, which connects with the
Pennsylvania Central. They have,
through their energy in introducing
this ear, kept many of our mechanics
employed through the past winter,
and have been the means of bringing
to our city, orders from Mexico for
railroad stock, amounting to many
thousands of dollars, all of which has
been distributed among our mechanics
through the past and present season.
AN ITEM FOR PARENTS.—The truth
fulness of the subjoined suggestions
will be endorsed by the experience of
qui* too many. We fear they contain
much food for thought, and may be
read with profit by every parent ;
It is Bolnewhore related that a poor
soldier, having had his skull fractured,
was told by the doctor that his brains
were visible. "Do write and tell flaw.
of it, for ho always said I had no
brains," he replied." How many !Alan's
and mothers tell their children this,
and how often does each a remark
contribute not a little to prevent any
development of the brain 7 A grown
up person tells a child ho is brainless,
foolish, or a blockhead, or that' he is
deficient in some mental or moral fit-
Nifty, and, in nine cases out of ten, the
statement is belieVed, or it' not fully
believed, the thought that it may be
partially so, acts like an incubus to're
press the confidence and energies: of
that child. Lot any person look back
to childhood's days, and he can doubt
less recall Many wordS and expressions
which exerted such a discouraging or
encouraging influence over him, as to
tell upon his whole future course of
life. We know an ambitious boy, who,
at the age of ten years had become
so depressed with fault-finding and re
proof; unmingled with encouraging
words, that, at an early ago, he longed
for death totako him out of the world,
in which ho conceived he had no abili
ty to rise. But while all thus appear
ed so dark around hint, arid' he had so
often boon told of his faults and defi
ciencies, that ho seemed to himself the
dullest and worst of boys, and while
none of his good qualities or capabili
ties had been mentioned, and he be
lieved he had none, a single word of
praise and appreciation, carelessly
dropped in his hearing, changed his
whole course of thought. We have
often heard .him say, "t'hat word saved
him." The moment he thought :he
could do well, he resolved that he
would—arid he has done well. Parents,
these aro important censiderations._

WARRIOR'S MARK„ April 4
If the Sun was to drop right doWu
in the middle of the world, I suppose
it would not light exactly in this some
what antiquated place, but if it is as
astronomers say, it might give us a sly
tap at all events.
There are some things, 'tis true, we
have not got, such as a Rail Road on
which to have our cattle butchered be
fore they are fat; wo have not got any
ague to shake our toe nails off, neither
have we any under ground grog-shops,
to make rowdies of our boys, and
drunkards of our young men ; yet not
withstanding this terrible destitution,
we make out to get along pretty com
fortably, and live about as pleasantly
as our more highly favored neighbors.
The moving clay is over. The wo
men have resumed their smiles; the
men have got the stove pipes all
adjusted, consequently, have regained
their usual equanimity; and last, though
not least, the game chickens, little
boys &c., after a trial for supremacy,
have come to amicable terms, and are
now enjoying their new quarters with
as much complacency, as a darkoy
does the soft side of a plank on a hot
clay.
Last Saturday morning a little acci
dent transpired which gave every body
something to talk about and our me
chanics something to do. Mr. J. R.
Lowry hitched up a young horse in a
sulky, with the intention of taking a
ride, but the horse proved to be more
sulky than the vehicle, for after sever
al perambulations,and sundry extrava
gant movements of the hinder extrem
ities, he dashed off down street at a
furious rate; the driver having jumped
out as he was starting. At the first
corner he made the turn, but soon
came in contact with some obstruction
and shattered the sulky to pieces.
Taking a ride in the country, a few
days ago, I had the pleasure of seeing
a herd of twenty-five door, frisking
around on a grassy bill near at hand.
There now, yo old Nimrods, you need
not gather up your rifles, for the herd
was in Hays Hamilton's park, at Hun
tingdon Furnace.
The park contains quite a number
of acres, and is surrounded by a high
pailed fence.
Merely guessing from what we have
seen during our short stay iu this part
of the country, there are a great many
dears that are not fenced up. Now
boys, this does not mean that you can
catch them, but still you can try if you
see fit.
Rev. Kidder of the Baptist Church
is holding a protracted meeting in this
place; . I cannot say what success he
has met with. Hope the interest may
increase, and much good be accom
plished. Fall crops do not look very
promising. The recent frosts seem to
have been hard on grain-fields. Far
mers are busily engaged plowing fur
spring crops. LEROY.
MCCONNELLSTOWN, April 8, 1861
Ma. EDITOR :—lt was our privilege
to attend the Lecture in the German
Reformed Church of this place, to
which you referred in your last isstio.
This Lecture was on China, and was
delivered by the Rev. James Colder,
of Harrisburg. Mr. Colder is a son of
the late'Wm. Colder of the above men
tioned city, and is a nephew of the
late John Colder, the aged and worthy,
neighbor, whose remains we followed,
but a few weeks, ago,,to their resting
place in our own beautiful Cemetery.
Mr. Colder, sonic few years ago, felt
it to be his duty to leave his native
home, and go on a Mission to the Chi
nese. He spent some three years
among that people, during which time,
ho succeeded In scouring It knowledge
to some groat extent of the very diffi
cult language whieh the Chinese speak,
as well as cultivated an acquaintance
with their customs and habits of life
generally. And with the recollection
which he still retains of their way of
living and
,their oharneter generally,
he was enabled, on the Uee:It$1011 notii
referred to, not, Only to entertain, but,
thereby instruct those Ao came to
hear him.
The evening being n very favorable
one, and a good deal of interest being
raised in the lecture itself, a very large
and very attentive audience filled the
the church.
The Lecture was confined mainly
to the consideration of the Chinese
people in their educational, social, me
chanical and agrieultuaid advantages
and,modes of living. And on Sabbath
morning Air. Colder preached a ser
mon, in which he set forth, in very
forcible style, the religious history,
and the woful heathenish delusions of
this ancient and numerous people.
We aro only expressing the candid
and nuiveysal feeliog of the large au
diences which - listened to both of these
discourses, when we say, that all were
highly pleased and instructed. This
was the expression of all with whom
we conversed, and we are persuaded
that good impressions will result from
the same. Such Lectures as these will
not only instruct and entertain us by
the measure of new light and informa
tion which they impart, bat they also
enable us, as a ehrlatlan people, to
conlParo our superior advantages with
those of the blind Heathen, and thus
incite us to a more diligent, and healthy
improvement of thes.o advantages, wo
sincerely hope that this, may be the
result in the instance now, noticed.

FRIEND LEWIS ;--110011g to favor
you with a detail of 'affairs from our
thriving little place, we now proceed
to the same pleasing task. Notwith
standing the inconstant and un
pleasant weather, wescem to be blessed
with peculiar good health.
Our robust mountaineers boast
themselves of their hardihood, that
they can withstand the ravages of
time. The stir and bustle of our se
questered spot Seem to increase. Our
stores, two in number, are well attend
ed, but "sponthilics" are scarce as hen
teeth.
Our common schools have all closed
some time since, and on the evening of
the sth inst., it was our great privilege
to attend the last school exhibition in
our neighborhood. It .was a grand
enterprise given hy,Mr. J. L. Kinsel,
teacher of school No. 1, Liberty town
ship, Bedford co., commonly known
by the name of " C'ypher's school
house." Long before old " Sol" had
hid his brilliant thee behind old Tus
soy's summit, joyous crowds could be
seen wending their way towards the
place of entertainment. The house,
though spacious, was soon filled to
overflowing. Being the first exhibition
given in the place, and the house most
beautifully decorated, plainly showed
the refined taste of the fair sex. All
eagerly watched every movement with
great scrutiny. The exercises were
commenced about 7 o'clock, P. M., and
we Aver° entertained in the most pleas
ing manner imaginable, until a late
hour. The exercises consisted of dec
lamation, essays, dialogues and music,
both vocal and instrumental. The in
strumental music was conducted by
Miss Tillie Steel, who acquitted her
self most admirably. Vocal music
was charmingly given by an organized
choir. The exercises were closed by
an address from the teacher, when all
retired fully convinced that they were
entertained far beyond their most san
'guine expectations. Ire must say
everything passed off , quietly , and in
order, reflecting great credit upon
teacher and pupils. More anon.

Accident on the Pennsylvania Railroad
I=
PITTSBURG, April 3.—The 'train
from Philadelphia : due here at 1 o'clock,
A. M., was thrown from the track by
the breaking of an axle about thirteen
miles from this city, near Wall's sta
tion. The forward ear went down an
embankment of fifteen feet, and the
other cars ran off the track. About
eighty passengers were in the train,
but only five wore injured, viz: Mr.
Dobbs, daguerreotypist, of Pittsburg;
E. Carpenter, a drover, of Holmes co.,
Ohio; Mallory, of Hollidaysburg;
and J. Simmons, express agent, of
Philadelphia. Their injuries aro slight,
and they will be able to leave to-mor
row for their places of destination.
The mails caught fire from the up
srtting of the stove, and the contents
of several pouches were badly damag
ed or destroyed. The Washington
letter mail escaped damage, and the
New York and Philadelphia, pouches
were but slightly damaged, The Bal
timore and Harrisburg pouches were
considerably damaged, and the way
mails between Pittsburg and Harris
burg were almost entirely destroyed.
