Supposed Suicide
On 11. ednesday morning last a man
was found with his throat cut, in the
haymow of the stable belonging to
Mr. Rupert, in Walker township,about
one mile above this place, near the
Huntingdon & Broad Top R. R He
was cut directly above the Adam's up.
pie, with a knife, which was found con
cealed under the hay, and the gash
made was about three inches in width
and the same in depth. It is not known
positively whether the man committed
suicide, or whether ho was murdered,
but the impression is prevalent that it
was suicide. Since the murder the fol.
lowing facts have boon elicited. On
the night previous he, in company with
another man, slept at Jacob's hotel in
this place, and before retiring he had
been engaged in conversation with his
friend on the subject of Fonianism.
His companion opposed the order,
while he favored the same, and it is
supposed ho was a Fenian Upon this
subject they discoursed so freely that
finally passion took possession of the
companion's judgment, and ho conclu
ded by saying that he would pay the
landlord's bill, and after that they
would separate. They accordingly
separated the next morning, and the
Fenian took up his abode at Dean's
hotel, but it is not known what became
of his companion. The supposed Fe
nian took his dinner at' Dean's, and it
is said was seen in town between two
and three o'clock. After that nothing
is known of him until the next morn—
ing, when he was found murdered as
above described. A post mortem ex
amination was had, but no other
wounds were inflicted than the one in
the throat. It was thought that be
had been sleeping, and being struck
he clutched his throat with his hands
and fell forwards into the hay; thus
making two pools of blood—where he
had been lying and where he had fell.
His clothes were searched and a lbw
pennies found in his vest. He had
been seen with a discharge paper on
on Monday night which bore the name
of Patrick O'Brien, which was suppo
sod to be his. He was about fbrty
years of ago, about five feet and a
half in height, had dark hair and black
whiskers, had his loft thamb bent, and
was decently dressed. He had inform
ed Mr. Jacobs that he had relatives in
Broad Top, and it is supposed ho was
traveling home on foot, and gone into
Rupert's stable for shelter during the
night, and getting out of heart he kill
ed himself to end his misery.
Disgraceful Conduct.
The auction sales of Government
clothing, etc., etc., on Saturday last
brought quite a crowd of old and
young men to town, and the day being
prott.y cold, a number of the young men
of town and from the country "warm
ed up," and it was not long until loud
talking became pretty general and
knock downs followed. After the first,
or most lizgrlced glut up town, in which
a town "boy" came off second best,
there appeared to be a bad feeling with
the "crowd" towards the young men
from the country. During the after
noon up to about four o'clock there
was considerable skirmishing on and
in the neighborhood of Railroad street,
when a general charge was made at
Cunningham & Etnier's corne,r,and for
some minutes tie fight was rough,
the town "boys" using "billies" and
stones, and drawing blood profusely
from the heads of three 3,-flung men
from Juniata t,gwnship. Stones were
also thrown by ono or two of the Ju
niata boys. By the time we arrived
on the ground the fight was about clo
sed, but we saw and heard enough to
satisfy us that several of the young
mon of town who were prominent in
the fight behaved very cowardly in
using "billies." We do not know who
commenced the last fight but we do
know that the "billy boys" were spoil•
ing for a fight, and they were prepared
to put it through op the rough. They
may become yerfeat in 1,1)9 use of ,',he
"billy," if they 4re 31Iowed to "do pret
ty much as they please" much longer;
then they mitg he, stilled upon to visit
Pittsburg, orsome other locality where
fast young men have time to reflect.
We advise the "lively" young men
of the country when they come to
town to keep out of had company, as
there is no certainty of fair play if; by
"double teaming," a victory over them
can be made more certain. This ad.
vice we give free of charge, in hopes it
will be heeded, that our Doctors may
be saved from the trouble of banda
ging up cut heads, and the Coroner,
perhaps, from holding an inquest.
Important to Musicians
The following testimony from a lady
who purchased a Steinway's Piano from
B. M. Greene, agent for this county,
shows not only that she appreciates a
good instrument, but is additior. al tee
timony to the superiority of their
make of Pianos over Al,r, others. She
says ;-,•"Por purity and sweetness of
tone, elasticity of touch, and beauty of
instrument, together with all the mod.

"I cheerfully recommend Messrs Stein

What Become of It
Mn. EDITOR:-1 see in your last issue
a very anxious and significant inquiry
concerning the Soldiers' Orphans'
School, said to have been lately est,:tb-
Palled at Cassville,Huntingdon Co., Pa.
It nppears that you are somewhat in
the dark, as to whether said orphan
school has fizzled out, or is still in full
blast. I would say, therefore, that the
best way to believe your owtrmied,
and also to prepare your editorial pen
to enlighten your readers, would be for
you to take a trip some day over to
Cassville and see for yourself. They
say, "seeing is believing," and we wish
everybody, that feels any interest in
the poor fatherless children of those
who gave their lives for the life of the
Republic, to come and see fur them.
selves. But for fear you do not come
soon, I will venture to say, through
the columns of your excellent paper,
that "the Orphan School said to have
been established" het o has already be
come a full grown institution. Although
we have only been in operation one
month, we hate now 108 orphans,
ranging from 8 to 16 years of age.
Their fathers perished on many differ
ent battlefields, in many hospitals and
Southern prisons. We have Hunting
don, Blair, Redford, Centre, Cambria,
Clearfield and Pranklin counties rep
resented. And I would say that al
though they are poor, they represent
as good a stock of families as can be
found in those counties. Some of them
may yet astonish the world—and I am
not sure but that I may have a future
President of the United (thank Gad
fur the word United) States. Our
boys can do a little drilling and the
girls can sing a little.they are of
course young and havejust commenced,
yet when we remember who and what,
they are, they are worth one's while
to come to see and hear. We are in a
quiet, out of the way place, but all the
better for that—still we do not wish to
be forgotten or have our claims over.
looked. Perhaps your inquiry was
intended to draw me out and wake up
the dormant pen with which I formerly
drove the Juniata Sentinel, If so,
would say that if I thought it would
be acceptible, 1 would scribble a few
articles for all of our county papers. I
say our papers, for I consider myself
now a Huntingdon county institution.
I know one thing—that the people
need more knowledge in regard to the
nature and design of Liles° orphans'
schools. Souse people hereabouts, for
instance, ask me two prices for every
thing, because they say "Government
pays for it"—whereas the facts are, I
am allowed only so much per year for
boarding, lodging, teaching, &c., &c.
One thought more, Mx. Editor, and 1
have done : If you people in Ranting•
don can not come over to see us, you
might invite us over to see you about
the Hollidays. If Dr. Thos. 11. Bur
rowes, State Superintendent, will give
his permission, and the farmers and
others Who have teams about this town
will agree to haul us all over to your
town some day, and you will get us
the Court House and keep us all over
night free, we will be pleased to visit
your ancient boroegh, entertain you as
well as we can, and have a happy
lime generally. I got up an affair of
this kind last summer, when 1 had no
more interest in it than you have at
present.
conclusion let' mo say when we
brought up 44 orphans from the Me.

Tho Soldlere Meeting
It is to be hoped that the oall recent
ly made through the Globe and other
county papers, for a meeting, on Sat
urday the 23d inst., of the soldiers who
enlisted in '6l and 'O2, will be heartily
responded to. A general movement
is in progress to have the same reward
given to those who entered the service
at an early period of the war as was
received by those who went at a later
day. Huntingdon county should tut
in concert with the rest of the country,
on the subject of equalizing the boun
ties. By reference to the proceedings
of Congress on the 12th inst. it, will ho
seen that Mr. Cowan introduced it in
the Senate, and that Mr. Hubbard, of
lowa, brought it before the House. It
was referred by both branches to the
committees on Military Affairs, and at
no distant day it will no doubt come
up for consideration. In order to has.
ten the action and to make the desired
result more Certain, it is of importance
that the wishes of the people be laid
before Congress. Although we might
infer from the purport of the call that
soldiers alone are to assemble, I think
it would be well to extend the invita•
tion to all the friends of soldiers. The
older members of the community who
were so influential in filling up the
companies raised in this county, may
now be of assistance in bringing justice
to the doors of the upon who were first
and foremost in joining the ranks.
