Harrisburg had a grand colored tourna went recently. Centre county has a miss, fat and thirteen, who weighs 240 pounds. The Altoona Vindicator office was sold at Sheriff's sale for $1538. The Herald says Tyrone should have a bath-house. We do not doubt it. The Centro County Fair is to be held on the sth, 6th, 7th and Bth of October. The colored congregation of this place hold a festival on Friday and Saturday next. A bald eagle measuring five feet, was cap tured by dogs in Indiana county recently. The historic village of Bloody Run, Bed ford county, is organizing a militia company. No person should fail to take something to the Fair next week, even if it is their baby. Three horses belonging to David Carna han, in Indiana county, were recently killed byllghtuing. The editor of the Newport News gives his views of courting.

The earner-stone of the new Presbyterian church at Hollidaysburg was laid on Thurs• day last with appropriate ceremonies; Isaac Gordon, a barber - at Bloody Run, wounded himself by letting the hammer of hid gun strike a stone, while out hunting.

Lewis llolsner, the murderer of Philip lon, in Cambria county, was last week sentenced by Judge Taylor to ten years im prisonment in the Western Penitentiary. Our cotemporaries are bragging of their Gordon job presses. We have a Newbury, which, we think, for cards, tickets, small tcliculareilabels, etc., ban% be beat. . • . Persons with effervescing temperaments are recommended to draw a lesson from the self-sealing jar. Those afflicted, male or fe male, Will just keep their mouth Closed. The wealthy men in Porter township, Cen tre county, are said to be backward in sub peribing for the grading of the Lewisburg, ,Centre and Spruce Creek Railroad. Pity And shame, if truo. Some wag burlesqued the Presbyterian pia-nic which came off on Saturday last, no a "Grand Blue-Stocking Dance," and so ad vertised it by.written posters. The cream of the joke is lost, as the author forgot the im print. "Familiarity breeds contempt" is an adage which does not hold good in the advertising ,business. A merchant or other business man can become very familiarly known to .the public by advertising and yet receive no contempt from his patrons. Persons coming to the fair next week will ,have a fair opportunity to subscribe for rkfair .paper like the Globe, at a fair price. It is nothing more thin fair that those who aro indebted should call round and give a fair equiialent for what they have received.

They are won derful and beautiful. The Penna. Railroad Company are reduc ing their force of employees all along the line.

Read the list, and bring anything you have that you would like anybody else to see, and come with less expectation of getting premiums than of affording gratifica tion and information to others. It is said that Calisaya Bark has a pecu liar effect upon the liver, and guards the sys tem against diseases by exposure and irregu lar diet. It is conceded that the great suc cess of the wonderfnl Plantation Bitters, which, previous to our late unhappy difficul ties, was found in most southern homes, was owing to the nstract of Calisayo Bark which it contained as one of the principal ingredi ents. In confirmation of this we have heard, one of our distinguished Physicians remark, that whenever he felt unwell from ordivary dietetic or atmospheric causes, he invariably relieved himself by Plantation Bitters. We speak advieedly when we say that we know it to be the best and most popular medicine in the world. MAGNOLIA WATER.—StlperiOr to the best imported German Cologne, and sold. at half the price. tf Accident A son of Henry Honstein, of this borough, who has been employed as a boat driver, met a serious accident on Wednesday last. At Jackstown, near Lewistown, there is an embankment forty.five feet in height, along Which the mules aro driven, and it was while at this point as be was sitting on his mule, the animal stumbled and the boy losing his balance was precipitated headlong amid the rocks below.

I have had one in my family-for some years, and from what I know of its workings, and from the testimony of many of my friends who use the same,l can hardly see how any thing could be more com pleto or give better satisfaction.

DIED, Sept. 224, in Huntingdon, KATTE KURTZ, daughter of gp. premiah and Mrs Christie Spouse, nged 2 *years, 11 Plonths and 1§ days. • CCOMMUNICATtp.I Mn. EDITON:—In allthe history of Huntingdon County, I dare say, there never was a man who stood so high in the estimation of the - peoPlo - as our present United States Senator, Mr. Scott. It was not ddivided honor, as far as parties were concerned, but the feeling was unanimous; his name was echoed far and near in words of praise and honor by the members of the De mocratic as well as the Republican party. Why, sir, the people almost worshipped the man, whose principles seemed based on a foundation as that of the everlasting hills; and whose sense of honor and integrity towered (like the Egyptian Mountains) far above the common mass of party cor ruption and littleness which floated around him. Then he stood like the towering oak, looked upon by his less er brothers with awe and reverence, who with mingled feelings of pride and respect, to think that one of their number should have been lifted to such an- exalted position, looked up from beneath the shade of his outspreading branches. But alas for the frailty of human hopes and idols; they alike, when brightest and most de% oitly wo'rship• ped, crumble into dust and are looked upon with disdain; and it may be, per chance, a sigh is heaved „as the be holder thinks of bow it might have been. There is at the present time, as your readers aro all aware, one of the most exciting campaigns, as far as the °lee• tion of county officers is concerned, that the county has ever witnessed.— The cause of which is, the endeavor of a certain faction of the Republican party (at least they wish to bo known as members of the same) since they have found they can no - longer hold the reins, to split the ticket and in that) way defeat those who have already defeated them, and that, in a 'Mare honorable and principled man ner. Among the leading Members of this faction or 'Piny; is the above mentioned Mr. Scott, .IsTow let mo ask the ques tion---was Mr. Scott supported by the whole of the Republican party or was he supported by only part of it? Most assuredly by the whole of it. Then why does he turn round in the face of all this, and endeavor to defeat his own patty, aye I his own neighbors? Mr. Scott should remember the "Gol den Rule," of at least the "Silver Rule." And in the eyes of all sensible persons, it seems to be the least thing that a man, holding the position ho does, should stoop to attempt. Why it would be a small enough matter for a potty politician to resort to, let alone a statesman holding an office, if any thing, superior to that of President, as far as the interest of the people are concerned. It Air. Scott desires to retain the con fidence and esteem of his fellow-men, let him remember that he will not do so by attempting to defeat the nomi• neon of his own party. ANON MARKETS.
