complete machinery has been added.
There is also a drying kiln for drying
the lumber, thus enabling the proprie-
tors to work in dry stuff, and supply
their customers with well fitting lum

can say that they are always ready to
accommodate, and are determined to
render satisfaction in their workman
ship and prices. Our young friend

anything in their line. See advertise

Engineers of locomotives have event
ful lives, as the following incident,
which happened near Petersburg, this
county, one day last week, will illus
trate : An engineer of a freight train
while coming towards the above nam
ed place,saw a child—a son of Mr. Den
ny, walking on the track about a half'
mile ahead. He immediately whistled
but the boy did not appear to hear it,
and kept walking, the engineer con
tinually whistling, and even reversing
his engine. Seeing that the boy would
not heed, he got from his seat on to
the cow-catcher, and caught the boy
in his arms, ere the engine could touch
him, and thus saved his life.
We have not learned the name of
this noble engineer, but we would be
happy to publish it as soon as we do,
for he would be held in grateful re

LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE
BROAD TOP, April 20, 1869.
Dear Glebe:—As the Spring advances we
can see the busy housewives and plowmen at
work—the women engineering and laying
out the plan of their kitchen garden, while
the young damsels of beauty are executing
the work; and again ,we see the stalwart
plowmen with hones turning under the fer
tile soil to reap a plentiful harvest. The
health of Broad Top as a general thing is
very good, but this Spring it has been visited
with a sat of sickness called the catarrh fe
ver, and was confined chiefly . to children.—
Its ravages among the little innocents for a
while was fearful and it caused many to bid
a last farewell to this world of ours.'
Business is also reviving as Spring advan
ces, and business men are looking ahead and
laying up heavy stocks for the summer, in ex
pectation of a good run of trade. Some time
ago the firm of A. & J. Gleason of Barnets
town, got ten barrels of the celebrated Chien.
ge flour, direct from Chicago; this they got
as a sample and it met a ready sale. They
now have received fifty barrels more of the
same flour, which I believe is One of the lar
gest cargos of flour that was ever shipped to
Dudley to one firm at one time, and the first
flour that ever came direct from Chicago' to
Dudley. They are retailing it out of rate
of eight dollars per barrel.
Mining now on this region is very brisk,
there being more demand for men to mine
the coal than there is demand fur work to
supply them, and if there should be any who
may read this letter and have no employment
let them come to Broad Top City and if they
want to work in the mines I can assure thent
steady employment and good wages. As I
mentioned some time ago Wm. A. Orbison,
Esq., of Huntingdon, has rented the Barnet
Place and is now shipping over one hundred
tons per day from it.
I will here mention something about a town
which promises to be ram of note. It is hr
cated where Six Mile run en t nties into the
Raystown Branch, five miles distant .froui
Saxton by railroad. Its name is Riddles
burg, in Bedford county, but it may well be
termed the Johnstown of Bedford county in
stead of Riddlesburg. This promises to be
an extensive Iron Work. There is now one
blast furnace built with all necessary build
ings to go to work e . t , once. It is now sup
posed that the furnace will be put, in blast
about the month of July or August, and the
Company intends, as soon as the furnace that
is now built will be in operation, to com
mence building another one. Besides the
blast furnace it is a first elites location for a
rolling mill and I should not wonder at some
future day that the present enterprising com
pany would build thereat, as every facility is
at hand to encourage it At this place as at
all now enterprising places, real estate cannot
he purchased at any price, the company not
being more willing than private individuals
to sell town lots. -CARBON.
The American Year Book and National
Register for 1869, published by 0. D. Case
of Hartford. is undoubtedly the most
complete and valuable book of astronomical
historical, political, financial, commercial,
agricultural, educational and religious refer
ence ever published. It is a universal al
manac, filled with information never before
presented in so compact a form. Among
other valuable statistics it includes tables of
the principal officers of the Government, from
the first Continental Congress to the present
time, list of Governors in every State from
its admission it to the Union down to 1869,
accurate Congress and Committee lists, a
complete table of Ministers resident and of
Consuls, of Assessors and Collectors, Army
and Navy lists, the names of all the colleges
in the United States, with their character,
location, and date of organization, abstract
of public laws, statistical sketches of all the
States and Territories, nearly one hundred
pages of Presidential election figures, giving
the vote of every county in the United States
from 1836 to 1868, and obituary notices of the
distinguished dead of 1868. The compilation
of the volume radicle great credit on its edi
tor, Mr. David N. Camp. The work will be
sold by subscription, and its proprietors offer
the most liberal terms to agents.

OBITUARY OM /tRy. J AS. LI. 0 EIBISON
It is . with feelings of the deepest sorrow
that we have to record the sodden death of
Rev: Janes Oameosr, which' occurred at
Bellefonte, Pa., on the 19th inst., after an
illness of less than forty-eight hours. Mr.
Orbison was born in Huntingdon, Pa., March
the 23d, 1826. He was a graduate ofJeffer
son College, Pa.; stiidied Theology at Prince
ton Seminary, New Jersey—was ordained
to the work of the Gospel Ministry by the
Presbytery of Huntingdon, Juno, 1850, and
in August following be sailed for India as a
Missionary, under the care of the Board of
Missions of the Presbyterian Church. lie
was twice married—his first wife was Miss
Agnes Campbell Kay, a native of Scotland
whom he married in India, and who died
only a few months after their union. In the
year 1858 he returned to this country, and
eons married a second time, to Miss Nannie
Harris of Bellefonte, Pa., and with her, re
turned immediately to his field of labor in
India. More than ten years after this, he re
turned with his wife and four children, ho
ping to resume his labors among the heathen
after recruiting his health, and providing for
the education of his children, arriving at
Huntingdon the 25th of March, and on the
19th of April lie entered into rest. From
these dates it will be seen that Mr. Orbison
spent nearly twenty years. of his life in the
self-denying work of preaching the Gospel to
the heathen ; and that he was taken from his
labors to his gracious reward fotir weeks
after his return to America. During these
four weeks, he was permitted to visit the
home of his boyhood, and to greet many--
but not all—of hip dear kindred and friends.
On the second Sabbath after his return he
preached in the Presbyterian Church of this
place, giving a brief, but very interesting (IC
count of the nature and extent of his work
among the heathen. On the following Wed
nesday he was permitted to meet with the
Presbytery that ordained him, and to preach
before it, bringing as he felicitously express.
ed it "The greeting of the Church of Asia to
the Churches of America." His funeral was
attendoj uy t i,!?.rize number of sincere mourn
ers. The militia: were conducted by Dr.
Hammil and the Rev. G. W. Zahnisor. A
number of EpiscOpal clergymen who were at
tending a "Convocation" at Bellefonte, were
also_present. The death of this beloved man
will be deeply lamented by all who knew
him, and by none more deeply than the na
tive members of his Church in India, whom
he was listrumental in bringing to a knowl
edge-of the truth. Mr. Orbison was a Chris
tian gentleman - of the highest type, was hum
ble, modest, earnest and yet fearless in de
fence of the truth—he was a ripe scholar and
eminently qualified for the work in which he
was engaged. 'But he was cut down in the
prime of life and in the midst of usefulness.
His work was done, and his Master whom ha
loved and served, brought him back to his
native land to die among his kindred, and to
leave his family in the care of Christian
friends, surrounded with Christian sympathy.
In behalf of this community we extend the
sincerest sympathy to his family and friends
in their crushing sorrow.

Bitters have become a household necessity
