The Republicans of Huntingdon county, in
convention met, do resolve,
First, That we heartily endorse the senti
ments of the inaugural address of General
Grant, and congratulate the country upon the
assurance which his administration has al
ready given, that honesty, economy and rigid
accountability will he enforced in every de
partment of the government.
Second, That in General John W. Geary,
and Hon. Henry W. Williams, the nominees
of the State Republican Convention for the
offices of Governor and Supreme Judge, we
recognize candidates worthy of the support of
every freeman, mho desires to preserve the
good name of the State, the pure fame of the
Judiciary, and the ascendancy of that patri
otic party which saved the nation's life in the
hour of war, and saved its honor from the
shame of repudiation in peace.
Third, That we cordially endorse Hon.
John Scott and Hon. D. J. Morrell, our rep
resentatives in the National Congress, as men
alike true to the party which has chosen them
as their representatives, and the best inter
ests of the country at large, believing that
fealty to the great Union Republican party of
to-day is fidelity to the Nation.
On motion the delegates front each elec
tion district were instructed to name to Mr.
M. Logan, Chairman, two persons ro act as
members of the County Committee.
On motion adjourned.
Our genial, jovial and corpulent friend,
Rob Stewart, is in town, and expects to re
main with his friends a few weeks. Ho is
in from California, whore he has been long
enough to become thoroughly acquainted
with the customs of that once far-off State,
but now brought so near by the U. P. Rail
road. Bob cites some interesting details of
his western life, particularly of his sojourn
among the Mormons, but we have it from his
own mouth that he didn't dare to call on any
of Brigham Young's daughters, nor they to
look at him—such is their aversion to us Gen
tiles. We hope "Slim Jim" will lot our
readers hear from him.

Agricultural fleeting.
The Huntingdon County Agricultu
ral Society met, pursuant to previous
notice, in the Court House, on Wed
nesday evening, 12th inst. President,
Graffus Miller, in the chair.
;• The minutes of last meeting were
read and approved.
'A communication from the Presi
dent of the Agricultural College was
presented, urging the importance of a
full representation of delegates to the
annual meeting of the Agricultural Col
lege on the Ist of September next.
Capt. B. X. Blair, chairman of the
committee to locate a place for hold
ing the cornier , Pair, made a verbal
report to the effect that two or three
places were under advisement, but
that the committee had not been to
gether to make a formal report Tho
first ground thought of by the commit
tee was that formerly occupied, below
town, owned by Geu. Wilson; which
he had agreed to lease to the Society
for that purpose for $lOO, provided a
suitable guarantee was given for the
protection of his fence. .Tlre ground
wag" fitted up, and very convenient,
and the Committee' thought the par
ties in public business would perhaps
contrib'uto the amount to pay for the
rent of the ground. The other ground
under consideration was that of Mr.
)NleCaban ~imMetliately',. across the
bridge itt the foot' of Montgoinery st.,
which was said to be a good' location,
but there would bo some 'expense in
curred in fitting it up, which would
not be required at the. other location.
The committee also understood that
there could be `grcind obtained in
West Huntingdon, but had not had
time to consult the owners or examine
the ground. Tho field belonging to
Mr: McCahan could be obtained for
about $5O.
On motion, the report was received,
the committee discharged, and the So
ciety proceeded to designate the local
ity.
On motion, the proposition of Gen.
Wilson be accepted and the Fair be
held where it was last.
On motion, the list presented by the
committee on premiums be're commit
ted to the committee, with authority
to appoint awarding committees on
the different articles on exhibition, and
to meet at the call of the chairman.
The following resolution was offered
by Mr. Rohl:1 3 and after somu discussion
adopted :
Resolved, That the three representatives
from this Society to the Agricultural College
of Pennsylvania be elected in the following
manner and to serve for the following terms,
to wit : That one be elected to serve for the
term of three years, one for the term of two
years and ono for the term of one year, and
that ono person shall be hereafter elected at
the usual annual election to fill the place of
the one whose term shall have expired.
The Society then proceeded to nom
inate delegates and alternates to the
meeting of the Agricultural College, in
accordance with the resolution, as fol
lows : L. Robb, for three years; J.
Simpson Africa, for two years; David
Hare, for ono year. Alternates—H.

and Bth days of October were agreed
on.
A committee of five, to act as com
mitten of arrangements for the exhibi
tion, was appointed, as follows: Jas
Port, IL C. Weaver, L. Robb, J. S

The Society then adjourned.

Jack's Spring
A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Press, writing from :lit. Union, tells of
a spring situated near the summit of
Jack's Mountain, three miles west of
Mt. Union. He says : "It has long
been known and celebrated by the cit
izens of this place fur the extreme
coldness and the remarkable volume of
water it sends forth. On the mountain
sides in the vicinity of this spring are
many smaller ones of the most ex
cellent water, but "Jack's" outrivals
all of them many degrees in coldness.
Place your hand in the water and you
instantly experience a sensation so be
numbing that you will not, oven on a
hot July day, care to allow it remain
longer than a few seconds, as the ope
ration is uncomfortably cool. The
force of the stream is about one hun
dred gallons per minute.
A short distance below the spring
the water sinks and continues to run
under ground a distance of a mile and
a half, when it again emerges from its
sukcerranean passage, about a hundred
feet above the bed of the Juniata riv
er. But ere it is permitted to mingle
its sparkling waters with the blue cur
rent below, the noble spring-stream is
made to do an igndble work—that of
manufacturing, with its pure and crys
tal waters, whisky! Those who im
bibe this luxury (0 praise the excel
lence of the article here manufactured;
but give to me heaven's own beverage,
the pure water from the spring, ere it
is polluted by maul."
flaqt is estimated that seven tenths of all
adult ailments proceed from a diseased and
torpid liver. The biliary secretions of the
liver overflowing into the stomach, poison the
entire system, and exhibit the alone symp
toms. After a long research, we ale able to
present the most 'email:able ewe for these
horrid nightmare of diseases the world has
ever produced. Within one year over six
hundred and forty thousand persons hays
taken Plantation Bittor4, and not an instance
of complaint has come to our knowledge. It

MESSRS. EDITORS :—There are men
from a distance who come to our town
to see what prospects there aro to,
start an enterprise. We know what
the result has been in the past. They
have been discouraged and left. Those
Mori saw the advantages of our town
bettor than we did ourselves, and they
would have improved- them but our
people - would not permit them. We
aro blind to our own interests, and
seek to live, as_ we have done for near
ly a hundred years, without giving ,
scarcely any attention to the estab
lishment of works of art. ! Strangers
have wondered at our seeming Indif
ference, and they have repeatedly chi•
ded us. We have the name of having
a beautiful town, and surrounded with
much beautiful scenery, but we are
also selfish enough to enjoy it all alone.
It appears that wo do not want any
thing started that bas;,the. smell of
manufactures,'or that Will bring the
laborer into our midst. Wo aro too
aristocratic for our own good, and we
would sooner revel, under the shade of
our own vino and fig tree than see
anybody else do so. Not that we aro
not somewhat sociably inclined toward
each other, but, rather, not enough in
clined- to see otheis come into our
midst to plant their vines and fig trees.
Ours, in fact, is pore of a
, professional
than a mebbanical htive
more stores and offices than shops and
factories, while ifit was vice Versa, our
town wou'd long since have been one
of the first manufacturing towns in the
State, and would have 'had_ a popula
tion equal to many of our cities. The
prejudice against factories, if any there
is, should be removed, and ,it can
,be
removed the most effectitally- erect
ing more of them. Reasoning with
the..opponents of.home industry never
effects good results; but the proof of
the usefulness of works of industry is
seen in their successful management.
The more manufactories , we have, the
less caviling wo will hear, and the
more benefit our town will receive
from being blessed with establishments
that are a credit to it and the men who
have established. them.
IMPROVEMENT.
Money' Matters
The following remarks of a western
journal aro pertinent to this locality.
Merchants 'are puttings things in or
der for the fall trade, and are shaping
matters for a good business. Crops
being good, it is confidently expected
that collections will improve. If pay
ments,aro not more prompt than here
tofore, debtors Will' find it difficult to
offer a satisfactory excuse. It won't
do to-say that prices are too low And
farmers refusetO sell. People ,w bn!are
not in:debt .4.ve't.l right to sell 'th'eir
produce or not; but those who, are in
debt to the storekeeper have only ono
course to pursue, consistent with hon
or, and that is to sell and pay up old
accounts. if this should be done the
business of the country, and . farmers
would profit "by it quite as much as
anybody else, because it would cause
activity in the produce markets and
stimulate prices. If general business
drags, the produce markets will drag
also, and this will cause a continued
scarcity of money, which must affect
prices. There is a great abundance of
money in the country, but it is stag
nant, and hence it is practically scarce.
If people who are in debt and have
produce on hand, will sell the latter to
an extent sufficient to pay the former,
currency will be put into circulation,
money will become plentyand business
willbe active. Let no ono say because
he owes only $5O or $lOO, that delay
in payment can make no difference.—
If the small debts are promptly paid,
there will be no difficulty about the
large ones. Until people who owe
small amounts pay up there can be no
revival in business. This is an impor
tant. fact that should not be lost sight
of. Take for example a country mer
chant who supplies his neighbors with
groceries, dry goOds„and hardware.—
He owes three houses in the ;city $lOOO.
He has twenty customers who owe
him, each $5O. If these should pay up
he would be able to discharge his city
indebtedness. The city merchants
have each fifty such customers. The
payment of the $5O bills. would there
fora wipe out debts to the amount of
$50,000. This would bring - into use
money that is now lying idle, and
would enable banks to loan more free
ly to produce merchants, thus facilita
ting the movement of the crops, and
imparting confidence all round. ,
Spruce Creek' Railroad
A grand rally of railroad mon is
called to meet at Millheim, in Centro
county, on Friday, tho 27th of August,
