:—lsn't Huntingdon slighted? In
looking over the Auditor General's
report fur 1867, we do not find the
amount of tax on real and personal
estate received from Huntingdon Co.
—Senator Mclntyre, of Perry coon.
ty, has been appointed District Deputy

composed of the counties of Perry, Ju
niata and _Mifflin.
—Gen. Georgo Potts, of Altoona,
has been appointed D. D. G. M. of the
Masonic district composed of the coun
ties of Blair, Bedford and Huntingdon.
J. King MeLanahan, of-Hollidaysburg,
is D. D. G. IL P. for the same district..
—Tho editor of the _Hollidaysburg
Standard has no big notions; no doubt
thinking that good goods aro done, up
in small parcels. He promises to make
the Standard the neatest little paper
published in tho Juniata Valley. Ho
has a huge field to operate in.
—No doubt many of our readers aro
troubled with cold feet at this time of
the year. We have just seen what is
said to be a cure, in an exchange. It
is simply to wear cotton socks next to
the skin and woolen socks outside of
them.
—Captain John M. Thompson, of
Perrysville, Juniata county, of the 40th
Pa. regiment, was awarded the Geary
prize offered by the Soldier's Friend
for the best specimen of left hand wri
ting by soldiers who had lost their
right arms in the late war.
—Rev. A. J. Barrow preached a
farewell sermon to the Episcopal con
gregation of this place, on last Sunday
afternoon. For two years past he has
been preaching alternately in Bedford
and Huntingdon ; but ho is now per
manently located at the former place.
—There is a man named Emeritus
Bender, living in Carroll township,
Cambria county, who is 83 years of
ago, who says that be was at George
Washington's funeral. Ho removed
to Cambria county in ISO 7, and has
been County Auditor and County
Commissioner.
—Rev. Amos Smith died at his resi
dence in MeConnellsburg, Fulton co.,
on the 20th inst., in the 73d year of
his ago. He was a Methodist divine,
and at an early period ho had charge
of the Lycoming, Bellefonte, Hunting
don, and-other districts in this section,
and at one time he was Presiding Bld•
er of the Chambersburg district.
—Throe attempts at robbery were
made within our borough limits last
week, all of which failed. Our citi
zens can rejoice over the fact that our
town is none the poorer and the rob
bers none the richer; but we should
not forget that robberies kill still be
committed and we must keep on the
alert and bring the culprits when de
tected to justice.
—The Bedford Inquirer speaking of
that county and the number of coun
ties born of her, says the "good old
soul" is as "gay and happy" as a girl
of "sweet sixteen." We think from
previous remarks by the editor of that
paper that the above does not apply
to Bedford borough, as it is about as
staid and sober as an old maid of five
and forty.
—Mrs. Margaret Simmons, daughter
of Daniel Tice of Lewistown, living in
Philadelphia, resorted to the danger
ous expedient of throwing coal oil up
on the embers in order to start her fire.
The consequence was an explosion en
sued, setting fire to Mrs. Simmons'
dress, burning her in a dreadful man
ner. She was taken to tho hospital,
but expired the next morning.
—Crime of all kinds, especially in
cendiarism and robbery, has never
been more prevalent than now. Our
State exchanges are of opinion that
well organized bands of experienced
thieves are leaving Philadelphia, Bal
timore and the other principal cities,
at stated periods, who move under
concerted plans,,in 'order to rob dwell
ing houses in defenceless villages, and
carry on depredations generally. Look
out for them.
—While three miners were engaged
in mining orein a mine near Hollidays
burg, last week, a portion of the
ground dropped from above them,—
Two of the miners escaped without
much injury, but the other, named Al
lison Shomo, was pinned to the earth
by a large rock which struck him on
the hack. After about two hours and
a half of energetic and dangerous la
bor, he was rescued, but in a badly
bruised condition.
—The revenue from cigars in 1867
was $3,666,184, which is the tax on
732,200,000 cigars. It is estimated by
a Now York paper that fully 1,000,000-
000 cigars were consumed in the Uni
ted States during the year. This
would give over twenty-five to each
person; or, that ono tenth of the whole
people smoke; and half of them smoke
tobacco in pipes, we have an average
of five hundred cigars consumed by
each of the genteel smokers during the
year, at a cost of at least $5O per head.

Gathering Local•
The editor of the Bloomsburg Repub
lican' tells his troubles in hunting the
particulars of a local item. We have
often experienced the same amount of
perplexity, and, therefore, know how
to sympathize with him:
"As an evidence of how a story be
comes exaggerated and changed by
hearsay we would refer to the reports
in regard to the recent sudden death
of a woman'at Rupert. Some had it
that she had fallen dead in her door
with appoplexy ; others that she was
going to the spring for water and fell
a corpse in the snow; and•stil•l others
that on attempting to cross the rail
road she had been struck by a coal
train and that twenty-five—some had
it thirty, forty, ninety—ears had run
over her! The name of the person
was also variously reported. Wo had
each story from those who had it from
eye witnesses !"
In this connection, we would add
that no editor desires to publish an in
correct statement in regard to any
item of local interest; but with the
limited' resources of county editors
they have generally nothing to fall
back upon but "hearsay," from which
they glean the most substantial and
correct knowledge. Editors don't
know everything, as some people, ig
norantly suppose, but it is justly ex
pected that they should giro the oc
currences in their neighborhood; but
how often aro readers amused by the
contradictory statements of the same
occurrence as published in the different
county papers. The reason is the
"local" is gathered from different sour
ces, all of which are considered reliable.
Our plan has been to gather the infor
mation principally from those most
concerned; but if they refuse to give
any truthful statement of the occur
rence, we aro obliged to gather from
uninterested and sometimes unauthen
tic sources; and then we are subject to
a "scolding" from the other party for
publishing a "lie." This "lie" could
have been avoided it they had given us
the truth; and if we don't publish the
truth they have nobody to blame but
themselves.

Pilstaktn Charity
The Hollidaysburg Register of last
week gives a detailed account of a das
tardly affair which took place recent
ly on the line of the Pennsylvania rail
road, near the boundary of Blair and
Huntingdon counties, and near Union
Furnace, this county. An Englishman
named Edward Sims came to the
watch house ofold Mr. Barkley, at the
above earned place, and told a mealy
mouthed story about his sufferings, and
asked to stay all night. To this Mr.
Barkley generously consented, and
gave him his supper. When the time
came to prepare for retiring, the old
man knelt to offer up his evening de
votions, and while thus engaged, the
hard hearted Sims jumped on his bene
factor's back, threw something around
his neck, stopped his mouth with a
scarf, endeavored to choke him, and
exclaimed : "You old bugger, 1. want
your money." A struggle eusued,when
Sims managed to got away with Mr.
Barkley's detached lever watch, but
no money. Sims was subsequently
arrested at the stock yard at Harris
burg, and after a hearing before the
Mayor of that city, was remanded to
the Blair county jail, where he is at
present.
The County Treasury Safe Broken Open.
The office of the County Treasurer
at this place was entered on Thursday
night by burglars. They were pre
pared with the tools necessary for their
purpose, having previously stolen them
from Shoemaker's blacksmith shop.
The door of the safe seems to have
yielded easily to the blows of a sledge
hammer, the front panel being broken
in so far as to expose the lock, and the
door itself being broken from the hin
grs. It was one of Lilly's chilled
iron safes. Fortunately it contained
but little money, the Treasurer having
taken the precaution to deposit the
county funds-in bank, and in his-pock
et. A few dollars in nickel coin was
all that fell into the hands of the bur
glars and this they did not remove
from the office. Nobody arrested.
P. S. We have since learned that the
National Bank of _Altoona and several
private offices in that place, were en
tered on Sunday night, but nothing
was stolen. This confirms our suspi
cion that it is an organized party tray •
cling through the interior for the pur
pose of robbing and if need be burning.
The Value of Pure Vlue in Sickness.
The chief difficulty with reliable
wines has been their scarcity and ex
orbitant price, but this has been remo
ved by the introduction of a pure na
tive wino, prepared from the Port
grape extensively cultivated by Mr. A.
Speer of Now Jersey. We understand
he has submitted his wine to the test
of many of our celebrated physicians,
and all concur in its purity, medicinal
properties, and superiority to the best
Port wino. Most of them, to signify
their just appreciation of its salutary
effects, prescribe it in cases of debility,
affection.; of the kidneys, and chronic
complaints, requiring a tonic, sudorific
or diuretic treatment.—Examiner.
Druggists sell it.
—The Juniata Sentinel says
effort is being made to have the mail

—The Methodist church in the Ut.i
ted States, for 1867, reports 17,473
preachers and 1,146,081 members, an
increase of 1,295 preachers and 118,897
members during the year. There aro
11,121 Methodist churches in the coun
try, valued at $35,886,439, an increase
during the year of 253 churches, and
$6,291,435 value. There are 15,341
Sunday Schools, with 1,031,891 schol
ars, and having 2,784,895 volumes in
their libraries. Tho collections for be
nevolent purposes during the year
were 82,784,895.
—The Court has not yet given a do•
vision in the "jury case." it will most
likely be given at an adjourned Court

arrangements to have juries at April
term.
