Destructive Fire in Altoona.
A very destructive fire occurred in
Altoona, on -Thursday night last.
which destroyed eighteen or twenty
buildings, among which were the Wes
tern llotcl, - a hotel and brewery be
longing to Kolloy & Walls, six houses
belonging to Mr. Elliott, house belong
ing to Wise, two houses belonging to
Mr. G. P. Patton, and several houses
belonging to McMahon, Masten, Works
and Peterson. 'Also Piper's livery
stable, near which the fire broke out.
A number of the buildings contained
stores, among which was the Carpet
and Furnishing store of our young
friends 'Patton & Lackey, much of
whose goods were destroyed by water
as well as fire. , - The loss is estimated
at $75,000, and is partially covered by
insurance to the anitnint of $16.000
The fire commenced about seven in
the evening, and lasted until midnight.
It was with great difficulty that the
flames could be Subdued; as the supply
of water, it was believed, was rut of
from the reservoir by the fiends who
fired•the buildings.
The fire destroyed one of the best
squares in - the 'centre of,the city, and
twenty-two families are without homes
About eight or ton houses still remain
in the square, which were saved by
the intervention of three brick build
ings and the indomitable perseverance
of the firemen and citizens.
The Morel Telescope.
It Is but justice to the author.of the
Moral Telescope to say, that while be
at times would seem to undervalue in
tellectual attainments, he is in reality
a most stronuous advocate of educa
tion and of the s.•icnccs. His estimate
is a relative one, which without de
grading knowledge, in itself and for
itself considered, would yet exalt to
the highest position that wisdom which
comes from atioVe, • Of this wo can
offer no better evidence than the fact
that by constant study and singleness
of purpose, he has overcome the want
of early advantages, and made himself
one of the best informed men of the
community. A FRIEND.
The Aurora Borealis
There was a splendid display of the auro
ral lights last Thursday night. It eommen
ced soon after sunset and continued till after
midnight. The period of greatest brilliancy
was about 10 o'clock, when almost the entire
visible heavens were covered with lines of
pale green light, while an irregular luminous
arch appeared above the northern horizon,
its extreme east and west edges being faintly
tinged with red. The electrical condition of
the atmosphere during the aurora is evinced
by the fact that the wires of the Western
Union Telegraph were worked without bat
teries at either end of the line.

Night Swneo in The Bible
Many of the most affecting apd most
important scones described in the Bi
ble, transpired under the splendors
of oriental night. Sodom and Egypt,
Beersheba and Babylon, Carmel and
'Gilboa, Olivet and Emmaus, Jerusa
lem and the sea of Galilee, have each,
by night, been witnesses of the power
and glory of the omnipotent Jehovah
The author,of "Night Scenes in the
Bible," has followed the shadow of
night across the landsc'epe of divine
revelation, and grouped together the
sacred scenes which are made awful
or impressive by the mantle of dark
ness. Ho has written it in fine style
and evinces careful thought, good taste
and a devout spirit, and the mind of
the careful reader loves to dwell upon
the scenes portrayed in the illustra
tions. The excellence of the work
has been completed in its. engravings
These are the work of superior artists
and are of unrivalled beauty,grandeur,
delicacy and excellence. They alone
speak volumes, and the person who
takes up the book to give it Merely a
glance will be led by its great attrac
tivness of print and beauty .of language
to read it to the end. Wo have
gazed for many minutes contempla
ting the beautiful engravings, and been
profited thereby.

Seven years ago the Plantation Bitters
were but little known. To-day there is not
a nook or corner of our land mhere they are
not found and used. The sale has reached
the enormous number of five millions of bot
tles annually, and it is steadily ,increasing.
It only shows what can be done with a really
good medicine, and a systematic course of
making it known. Perhaps no medicine in
the world was ever so deservedly popular as
the Plantation Bitters. Go where you will,
among the rich or poor, atd you will always
find these Bitters in use.. Their merit 'bee
become an established fact, and we cordially
recommend them in cases of dyspepsia, loss
of appetite, chills and fever, headache, kc.

Mrs. SARAH C. ST.NEBRAN.EIt, wife of Mr.
John M. Stonebraker, of Mill Creek, departed
this life April 11th, 1860, aged 27 years.
In health she was loved by all who know
her. She was a consistent member of the
Baptist Church for ten, years previous to her
death suinmoiis. In her separation the
church has lost a very efficient member—her
husband a fond companion—her parents a
dutiful child, and her two little children, (a
I ttle girl of 10 years and a little boy of four
years,) n christian mother. On Friday pre
vious to her death,whilet she yetcould speak,
she called her family to her bed-side and
gave each one her parting blessing. It is
seldom such truly christian death-bed scenes
are witnessed. Ger expression was that it
being God's will to sever her earthly tics, she
had nothing to regret—that her lamp was
full and burning—that she only waited the
coming of the bridegroom to bid her enter.
Loved in death those lips that sang
buret anthems to the saviour. name ;
Now Joined with all the Heavenly hosts,
kralsing Father, Sun and Holy U host.
