and IL Milton Speer vas appointed
Secretary.
The object of the meeting was stated

tion of the advantage of Huntingdon,
as the terminus of the navigation on
the Penn'a. Canal, and the expediency
of memorializing the Canal Company
on the subject.
On motion it was
Resolved, That the chair appoint a coin
mittee of fifteen, to draw a memorial to the
Canal Company, presenting the advantages
of Huntingdon, as the terminus of navigation,
upon the proposed enlargement of the Canal.
The chair appointed the following
persons, as the committee: S. E. Hen
ry-, R. B. Petrikin, W. A. Orbison, D.
Blair, D. Dunn, A. R Stewart, Dr. R.
A. Miller, 11. S. Wharton, Henry Leis.

On motion of Mr. Stewart,

adjourned meeting on the evening of Ist May.
Adjourned.
MAY Ist, 1869.—The committee ap•
pointed to prepare a memorial to the
Canal Company, through J. Sowell
Stewart, Req., reported to the meeting,
the following, which, on motion of Mr.
Orbison, was adopted :
To the President and Directors of the Penn'a.
Canal Company.
GENTLEMEN : A meeting of a considerable
number of the principal citizens of the bor
ough of Huntingdon assembled, on the 30th
of April, 1869, at the office of Speer &
McMurtrie, to give expression of their appre
ciation of the project of your company to en
large the Pennsylvania Canal; whereupon
Thomas Fisher, Esq., was called to the chair,
and R. Milton Speer, Esq., appointed Sec'y.
A committee of fifteen, consisting of S. E.
Henry, It. B. Petrikin, W. A. Orbison, David
Blair, David Dunn, A. R. Stewart, Henry S.
illarton, Henry Leister, It. A. Miller, Jas.
Port, It. M. Cunningham, J. Sewell Stewart,
Geo. Jackson, Alex. Port and 11. G. Fisher,
were appointed to draw up a memorial to the
gentlemen at the head of your organization,
expressing active sympathy with the move
ment, presenting some reasons pointing to its
necessity; and indicating this, as the proper
terminal point for the enlarged canal.
Above Huntingdon, boatmen, with even
the small craft now and heretofore used,
have always experienced the difficulty of
navigating the e.inal in time of low water,
while below there was comparatively plenty.
Huntingdon is also the first point of your ca
nal,-where the coal and lumber from the Al
legheny mountains on the line of the Penn's.
Railroad, from the Philipsburg region, and
from Broad Top Mountain can meet at a
common trans-shipping place from the rail
roads to the canal. Large discoveries of iron
ores have lately been made along the eastern
slope of Tussey's mountain additional to
those long known as the fossil deposits, which
are being rapidly developed cud in the course
of a very few years will furnish an extensive
freightingbusiness,to the public thoroughfares
passing this place. The coal fields of Som
erset county may ultimately be tapped by
the extension of the Huntingdon and Broad
Top Railroad, the natural outlet of whose
productions to water communication will be
Huntingdon. Around all these will natural
ly circle an incidental business which it is
impossible to foresee in detail.
We will further state that in the mountain
ous parts of Pennsylvania there are immense
quantities of hemlock which, when made in
to lumber cannot reach the eastern market
in competition to that now carried by water
from other places, on account of the cost of
transportation. With the proposed improve
ment, large boats and naturally cheapened
transportation this would be a great and
profitable trade. The bituminous coal could
then be taken to Philadelphia, New York
and Boston from central Pennsylvania cheap
er than from any other part of the United
States. Besides, the-increase of the grain
production in the west has been and will be
so great, and so much of which will neces
sarilly pass over the Pennsylvania improve
ments, that it will be impossible for the rail
road promptly to transport the coal, iron and
lumber, which must then be turned over to
the canal.
While feeling the highest appreciation of
all the lines of intercommunication with
which we are favored, we pledge to the projec
ted improvement our hearty good will ; and
by ell fair means will give to it wh at trade
and commerce we can to aid in making it
beneficial to the public and profitable to its
owners.
Dr. R A. Stiller, R Stilton Spoor,
W. A. Orbison, Alex. Port and Thos.
S. Johnston, were appointed a commit
tee to present a copy of- the proceed
ings to I. J. Wistar, President of the
Canal Company. On motion adjourned

Secretary. President.
Lloyd% Revolving Mop
We have received from Mr. A. H.
Crum, State agent, ono of Lloyd's Pat
ent Revolving Double Maps of Ameri
ca and Europe - , which for style and
beauty of finish cannot be surpassed.
Those great maps show every place of
importance, all railroads to date, and
the latest alterations, thus making
them invaluable for Schools and pri
vate families. No man should, no ig
norant of the outline of the globe on
which he lives, and the information
one receives from the, study of a well
executed Map is not soon forgotten.
These Maps take up little space, and
by means of the Reverser, either side
can be brought front. Mr. Crum soils
by wholesale and retail.
Thief Caught
The thief who entered Mr. Richard
Langdon's store, in Coaldalo, recently,
was detected at Bloody Run, on Wed

place, to puss ono of the stolen checks,

[COM AI UNICATED.]
Let Our Town Iniprovo
MESSRS. EDITORS : I am one of many
that desire to see our . town Improve,
and I propose to write a few short
communications to revive an agita
tion upon the subject.
We have - watched with pleasure the
few advancements . that have been
made which have'resulted in the erec
tion of a Furniture Factory and its
successful operation, and the number
of buildings that have gone up in the
old and new town; but we have had
our fears that all was not yet done to
build up our town on a substantial ba
sis. A large number of dwellings have
gone up, but by whom have they been
built? The majority of them were
built and are now occupied by our
poor men, who depend on the .tailroad
company and their daily tabor on the
the streets as teamsters or artisans for
their daily bread. They at present
have a reasonable share of work, but
this is - because improvements in build
ing have been in regular progress; but
we dread for the future. Large houses
will not go up every year, and then
where will they go for employment?
One thing is certain, they will not
stay here' and starve. .
Then, what must be . done? The
poor, as a; general thing, have erected
the buildings for their own comfort, in
anticipation of brighter times. Those
times can be made by our own citi
zens if they will only do it. :We have
wealthy men in our community. to
whom tho laboring man must look for
assistance. They have, (We aro sorry
to say it,).:d'one nothing to help the
poor man, or benefit themselves. They
could, by investing in home manufac
tures, afford employment to those who
now live in' our town depending on
them, and they could thereby afford
work for hundreds more, and thus
build up the town, and gite it a busi
ness aspect—and they themselves
would be the gainers.
I have something more to say upon
this subject, which I will refer to
again. IMPROVEMENT.
[COMMUNICATED j
Narrow Escape
A very narrow escape was made
last Wednesday, by Revs. Hugh Linn
and L. Rudisill of BleConnellaburg.—
They had been spending a few days in
the lower part of this county, and
were on their way home, when the
horse suddenly took fright and started
off in full run, passing over a danger
ous piece -of ground near the foot of
Shade mountain, striking a stone
breaking a shaft, and throwing• them
out of the buggy. Mr. Linn was bad
ly bruised,and Mr Rudisill escaped with
a severe jarring and a slight bruise in
the right side. By the course the
horse took it seems almost Providen
tial that they escaped death.
House Cleaning.
This important business, like many
others, was somewhat delayed on ac
count of the unfavorable weather, but
no good house-wife will let its proper
season go by without a thorough
cleaning and shaking up. It entails a
great deal of severe work both for
body and mind till everything is prop
erly scrubbed, arranged and repaired,
but there aro few undertakings that
when completed give such general sat
isfaction, not only to the house-wife
upon whom its burthen mainly rests,
but the whole family feel as if they
had moved into a now house, and all
try, at least for sometime, not to undo
what has been so well and judiciously
performed. This important annual
renovation is now being briskly car
ried out in almost every household of
the town.
ger rhe language of nature and experience
demonstrates that whoever would enjoy the
pleasures of food, the beauties of landscape,
the joys of companionship, the riches of lit
erature, or the honors of station and renown,
must preserve their health. The effect of foul,
injurious food, entering the stomach, is to
derange the digestive organs and produce
headache, loss of appetite, unrefreshing
sleep, low spirits, feverish burnings, etc.,
which are the symptoms. of that horrid di
sease, Dyspepsia, which assumes a thousand
shapes, and points toward a miserable life
and premature decay. Plantation Bitters
will prevent, overcome and counteract all of
these effects. They Act with unerring pow
