cess attend him.
ADVERTISING AG EN TL-3.—There is a
species of humbuggery in this kind of busi
ness and yet to some extent it would seem to
be a necessary evil. It is necessary to enable
enterprising men to reach a larger number of
newspapers than they could otherwise, and in
this manlier the enterprising business man is
benefited to a coheir extent, but of what ad
vantage are they to the publisher? They im
pose, invariably, upon the poor printer to
serve the rich merchant or manufacturer.
They bully the printer into taking fifty per
cent. less from them than regular advertisers,
and then take off twenty-five per cent. of the
remainder for commissions. This is our ex
perience, how is it wit's you, neighbors? We
have thought at times that we had great bills
co:ilia:0o us from tilers parasites, and when
we have received a little check for $8 or $lO
of a balance, we have stood with amazement
and contemplated how they had figured us out
of the remainder of out: bill. It appears to us
to be a systematic swindle ; there is no fair,
square or honorable business transaction about
it. Aud while we have seen• men start out,
thinking to do a fair and honorable bossiness,
they have been compelled, for want of sup
port, to give away to swindlers who can bully
and dexterously cheat the country press out
of all the advertising that they want advertis
ed. We put the whole batch in the same cate
gory, and we have done business with the
whole set of them. Until the country press
determines to have nothing to do with a set of
men who make their own prices it will be no
better. For our part we will not allow any
body to make prices for us. Printing is just
as much a business as any other branch of
industry. Let country newspaper men de
termine to treat these fellows like they treat
other people who want the use of their col
umns, and they will have to accept such terms
as everybody else accepts. We can't see
why a foreign advertiser should take up our
space, and crowd our paper, to the disadvan
tage of the people among whom we live, and
get our support for less money than the latter
pay ? It is unjust and unreasonable that he
should. We mean to stand by our home ad
vertisers and not to push them back to make
room for any foreign humbug at half-price.
There is hardly a country newspaper that
makes enough of money out of these agents to
pay for the ink and paper used in the publish
ing of their stuff, and yet we find country pub
lishers encouraging the business and building
up great fortunes for the men who grind
them down to the last farthing. If business
men want to insert advertisements in news
papers that they know nothing about, let them
pay some man to attend to that branch of their
business, and leave him to pay newspaper men
what they charge their immediate patrons ;
this is our doctrine. We can live without the
patronage of these parasites and we mean to
do it, unless they pay our prices. We need
no middle men to do our business, and we
intend, for our part, to give our prominent
space to our neighbors who support us at
home.
SKETCH No. 2 —Dear Editor : It is
"ONEIDA" we wish to sketch for this time. It
is bounded on the north by West township, on
the east by Barree, on the south by Hender
son and on the west by the Juniata river and
Huntingdon. The territory, some years ago,
belonged partially to West and partially to
Henderson townships. It was organized in
1857. Those who have never traveled any in
this township will be misled as to the real terri
tory, by relying on Hr. Christy's map of Hun
tingdon county. Since his survey, the north
ern part of Henderson township—north of
Stone Creek and Lick Rridge—has been at
tached to Oneida, while the southern part of
Oneida, as represented on the map south of
Hurry's Run, is now apart of Henderson town
ship. These changes, with several others in
the county, suggest the propriety of a new
map. As an agricultural district this town
ship is like most of others—it has some very
good lands and some very poor. With regard
to its area, we are at a loss to say anything,
though it is considered one of the small dis
tricts. With her population of three hundred
and eighty-six inhabitants, according to the
census report of 1870 she is among the least
populous-districts. The people are most all
engaged in farming, there being a very limited
number of manufactories—saw-mills.
A more peaceable, clever and hospitable set
of citizens are not to be found in Pennsylva
nia. We may account for it perhaps because
there is very little of that sold, which impov
erishes the rich, brings the youth to prema
ture death, mars the happiness of families,
destroys the brightest intellect, and is the fell
destroyer of its every votary. This brings us
to speak of the hotels and places where spirit
uous and other liquors are sold. Since the
destruction of the National Hall, just outside
the borough limits of Huntingdon, about one
year ago, there is but one place where any
thing as a beverage is sold. It is at the hotel
at the noted Warm Springs owned by Gen.
Wilson.
We will not elaborate on the "Springs."
They are a subject for an article themselves.
But to those who have never visited the local
ity, we say go and see—it is a pleasant drive
of only five miles from the county town.
If our memory serves us there is but one
church, the Baptist, at Murraysville. By the
report of the County Superintendent of Com
mon Schools for 1870, there are three schools,
all taught by male teachers, with an average
salary of $32.75 per month. But it is really
painful to think that her 60 boys and 48 girls
only get the benefit of four months of public
school. It is high time our legislature was in
creasing the minimum number of months du
ring which the schools are to be kept open.
For 1870 $430.92 county, $16.67 State and
$9.50 Military taxes were levied on her one
hundred and six taxable inhabitants.
In conclusion we will advert to the name
"ONEIDA." Our theory for this part of our sub
lunary globe being thus named is this:
"Oneida" is an Indian term for Standing Stone.
Hence Stone Creek, which passes through the
entire length of this township, received its
name from the "Oneida" or Standing Stone set
up by the Indians at the mouth of the creek.
When the township was organized it was giv
en the synonym of the name of the creek.
Yours, &c.,
March 1, 1871. JUNIUS.
RAILROAD MEETING.—At a large and
enthusiastic meeting of the citizens of Burnt
Cabins and vicinity held on Thursday evening,
the 23d of February, at the public house of
fienry M'Gowan, Rev. C3TusJeffries was called
to the chair, James Kelly, Esq., elected vice
president and Joseph Mifflin, secretary. The
president, on taking the chair, stated briefly
the object of the meeting, viz : The advance
ment of the project of a railroad to developthe
latent resources of this mineral region.
John Dougherty of Mt. Union, then address
ed the meeting at some length, setting forth
the great need of this road not only to the re
gion which it is destined to trarerse, but also
to thoae north, south, east and west, which
this missing link is designated to bring into
connection.
D. V. Ahl, Esq., president of the Miramar
iron company, then briefly addressed the meet
ing, stating that he had put the engineer of the
Miramar iron company (Joseph Mifflin, Esq.,)
and his corps on the survey of the route, with
the expectation that the people would respond
according to promise in the way of obtaining
rights of way, leases of ore lands, etc., etc., and
would therefore leave the matter in their
hands to determine what route or routes
should be surveyed. It was then, on motion
of M r. Dougherty,
Received, That the engineer be requested
to make a survey of such route from Burnt
Cabins to Mount Union, as in his judgment will
best advance the interests of the company,
without regard to local interests.
On motion of D. V. Ahl, Esq., it was then
Resolved, That'll:le engineer be instructed,
after the conclusion of the survey named, to
survey a route from Burnt Cabins, by way of
SidelingHill Gap to an intersection with the
Huntingdon and Broad Top railroad at such
point as his judgment dictates.
Resolved. That a committee be appointed to
accompany the engineer corps to see to the
supplying of their wants, and at the same time
attend to procuring leases, subscription to
stock, etc., etc. Said committee to consist of
the president, vice-president of the meeting
and such others as they may see fit to add.—
Harrisburg Patriot.
THE NEW COUNTY PROJECT.—The
following letter, under date of New Grenada,
Fulton county, Penna. Feb. 16th, 1871, reached
us too late for last week's issue :
EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL.—Dear Sir :—I
have never before attempted to write anything
for a newspaper, so that if this does not read
very well, the readers of your estimable paper
will bear in mind that-this is my first effort. I
would not attempt it now only to inform you,
and the many readers of the JOURNAL, that
there is a possibility, as well as a probability,
of our being stricken off from Fulton county
and attached to a new county, which is now
agitating the minds of the people very much
in this locality.
The proposed new county will only cut Went,
township off our county, East Providenco,
Broad Top and Liberty townships off of Bed-,
ford and Hopewell, Tod, Carbon, Cass, Clay,
Springfield and Dublin off of Huntingdon.
The county seat is to be at Broad Top city.
The people in our township are very favorable
to the project on account of being more con
venient to the county seat and because it
would make a much better market than we
have at present.
However our market is as good as could be
expected at the present time, but business in
and around the coal regions has been very
dull this winter, on account of a misunder
standing between the operators and the min
ers, what the misunderstanding is I do not
know, living so far a way as I do and with
but few opportunities of ascertaining. I un
derstand there is quite an excitement in Clay
township, your county, in regard to the pro
posed new county. The people are unani
mously in favor of the change. In Dublin and
Springfield townships the sentiment is also
very favorable so that I think there will be
but little if any objection in this and Hunting
ingdon counties. There are a few ambitious
parties in Bedford county that may object but
beyond this there will be but little.
While on Broad Top a few days ago I was
informed that the public buildings could be
erected without any cost to the new county.
I was also informed that the probable name of
the new county would be ROBERTS. If
a new county is formed it will add
largely to the value of farms in all of the
above named townships and will encourage
railroad companies to build railroads through
every part of this county.
The ghost at Berkstressers', or Water Falls
Mills has disappeared, so that there is nothing
more down here that would interest your read
ers in any way.
I hope the Republican party in Huntingdon
county will come to some terms soon, at least
before next fall, so as to prevent the Democrats
from making so much noise about their victo
ries. Let factions go to the winds and let our
people look to the interests of the whole Re
publican party without regard to factions.
This is the sentiment of all the good Republi
cans in the southern portion of the county
with whom I have talked. - FULTON.
[We hope the above candid communication,
from a gentleman of character will show our
people 'the exact status of the new count
question, and they will, no doubt, take due
notice and govern themselves accord ingly
We are in the woods.]
How BUSINESS IS TIED 171..—0ur
neighboring county of Bedford has been, in a,
financial point of view, terribly prostrated.
Business has been at a stand still and every
body has been and is very much cramped for
money. No one appears to know the exact
cause of the stringency and there is only a
general complaint without attributing it to the
proper cause. In our estimation there are three
prominent causes for the derangement.
Ist. The banks of Messrs. Reed & Schell
and 0. E. Shannon, Esq., closing up and tie
ing up the greater portion of the money on
deposit—that amount is taken out of circula
tion and the community is the sufferer to that
extent.
2ndl3 - . A large quantity of money has been
shipped out of the county without an equal
amount being returned. In the year 1860 not
less than $175,000 where shipped by the Bank
and other parties, while in the year 1870 it did
not fall short of $200,000. This may be
doubted but we have the figures in our pos
session and know whereof we speak.
3rdly. The people of the county have adopt
ed the miserable alternative of taking judg
pent exemption notes from everybody in all
the every day transactions of life. And the re
sult is that there is scarcely a dollar's worth
of negotiable paper outside of the banks in
the county. Consequently the entire credit
system of the county is tied up. No one is
willing to take a judgment note, subject to all
the equities existing between the original par
ties to the bill. Thousands and tens of thous
ands of dollars given by good men, that should
be in circulation, to relieve the distress, are
tied up and of no use to any one except the
parties in whose favor the notes are drawn.
There is no other community in Pennsylvania
where a similar system prevails. The s stem
was brought about, we suppose, by a desire •
of storekeepers to protect themselves against
the $3OO exemption law, but while they have
saved a few dollars in this way, they have lost
three times as muchmoney by the prostration
of business. Truly they have been saving at
the bung and loosing at the spicket. So gen
eral is the system that the printing offices,
have not printed any other notes, for general
use, for half the last decade, and it will re
quire a general break up to straighten out this
short sightedness. We advise the people of Bed
ford county to throw away their blank judgment
notes, and to take negotiable paper, and put it
in circulation and business, instead of being
tied up, will become easy and they will in a
few mouths experience the much wanted re•
lief.
THE PENNSYLVANIA CENTRAL.—The
management of this road has submitted a re
port of its operations for the year 1870 which
the Philadelphia Day boils down into the
following compact space
"Tire earnings of the main line and branches
for - the year amounted to the immense sum of
$17,531,706 82, exceeding the expenses by $6,-
271,621 97, the net earnings of the company.
The increase of revenue over the previous year
was $280,895 09. Owing to a reduction of
the freight charges, the receipts from this
source fell off $139,496 '4l ; but the increase
tom passenger, mail, express and other re
ceipts amounted to $420,391 50, leaving the
net earnings as above stated. The gross re
ceipts for the year amounted to $48,971 25
per mile of the main line, and the whole num
ber of passengers carried during the year was
4,352,769, an increase of 123,406, or nearly
3 ger cent. over 1869. The number of tons
of freight moved was 5,804,051, including
2,550,389 tons of coal. The actual cost of
operating the road was a fraction over 59 per
cent. of its receipts. During the discussions
at the business meeting of the stockholders,
yesterday, Col. Thomas A. Scott, the vice
president of the company, in reply to ques
tions from a New York stockholder, distinctly
declared that this company has no interest in
the Union Pacific railroad ; that the exten
sions of the Pennsylvania railroad company
are limited to Chicago, St. Louis, Louisville,
Cincinnati and other centres, forming connec
tions with New Orleans and the lines to the
Pacific, and in reference to the leasing of the
Camden St Amboy, and other New Jersey lines,
Col. Scott• said that negotiations are pending
which the company think will, if consumma
ted, prove highly beneficial to it."
TnE RIFLE TOURNAMENT.—The Rifle
Tournament, on the 22d ult., passed off very
pleasantly, and was a success as far as attend
ance was concerned. Blair county was repre
sented by several marksmen, but we were dis
appointed in not seeing delegations from other
counties. Huntingdon county turned out in
force and carried off both prizes, but neither
of them were allowed to stay in town. The
first prize was won by G. W. Long on a string of
ten shots measuring 8i inches, and the second
by Wm. Conrad, his string measuring 11f
inches.
The next day, in another match for a valua
ble row, our townsman, Wm. Williams, came
off victorious, winning with a string of three
shots, sixty yards, off hand, measuring If
inches.

SENSIBLE.—A gentleman writes from
Broad Top City, under date of February, as
follows :
"Your article in the JOURNAL, of a week or
two ago, headed, 'Support your Local Paper,'
has made a decided impression upon my mind,
so much so that I consider it the 'right thing
in the right place.' And to prove my appre
ciation of it, you will greatly oblige me by
placing my name upon your subscription list.
Any thing I can do to increase the circulation
of your JOURNAL in this part of the county by
contributing, &c., you have but to speak the
word and my feeble efforts will be devoted in
your behalf. I would be young as a corres
pondent but perhaps I could add a little toward
increasing the interest of your already inter
esting and valuable paper."
Your name has been added to the list and we
will be happy to hear from you whenever you
have anything of interest to communicate.
Tell everybody that does not take the JOURNAL
in your neighborhood, to subscribe for it and
get rid of the sin of doing without a newspaper.
The man who is raising a family, and who re
fuses to subscribe and pay for a newspaper,
will find that he will have a fearful responsi
bility to answer for. Ile will find it easier for
a camel to pass through an eye of a needle
than for him to enter into thejoys of the here
after. Does the parent ever think, to speak
seriously, what a responsibility he will have
to answer for in keeping his children in igno
rance in an age like ours? Remember wher
ever their knowledge of the world is deficient,
owing to your dereliction as a good parent in
not providing them w th the mesas of infor •
ming themselves, you are responsible and just
ly so. And the best of all means is the news
paper. It tells the ways of the world.
ADVERTISINo APIIORISMs..---.Tudieious
advertising always pays.
If you have a good thing, advertise it. If
you havn't don't.
If you don't mean to mind your own busi
ness, it will not pay to advertise.
Never run down your opponents' goods in
public. Let him do his own advertising.
It's as true of advertising as of anything
else in this world if it is worth doing at all it
is worth doing well.
We don't recommend advertising as the best
way to get a wife ; but we know that it is the
best way to get a good trade.
You can't eat enough in one week to last a
whole year, and you can't advertigb - tut'
plan either.
_ _
A large e.vertisement once, and then dis
continued, creates the impression that the man
has fizzled.
Injudicious advertising is like fishing where
there's no fish. You need to let the lines fall
in the right place.
A constant dropping will wear a rock. Keep
dropping your advertisements on the public
and they will soon melt under it like rock salt•
Large type isn't necessary in advertising•
Blind folks don't read newspapers.
If you can arouse curiosity by an advertise
ment it is a great point gained. The fair sex
don't hold all the curiosity in the world.
Don't be afraid to invest in printer's ink,
lest your sands of life be nearly run out.
People who advertise only once in three
mouths forget that most folks can't remember
anything longer than about seven days.
THE GONDEN HOMICIDE.—This case
has been on trial for a week and at present
writing—Tuesday—is still in progress. The
court held two sessions on Sunday last, and,
as has been the case during the long and tedi
ous trial, the court house was literally jammed
with people. The holding of the court on the
Sabbath was the subject of much comment,
and perhaps the history of the county does not
afford a similar occurrence. In the Rice case,
tried by Judge Thompson in 1842, the court
was opened on Sunday, but an adjournment to
Monday was immediately ordered after the
opening, and Rice, who had been found guilty
late on Saturday evening, was sentenced on
Monday. The lawyers, who ought to know,
say that no day dare intervene during the pro
gress of a trial for murder. For this reason,
and for the purpose of gaining time in this tri
al, the court made a full day on the Sabbath.
The above, cut from the Bedford Gazette,
was in type before the verdict was renderel.
On Wednesday morning about 2i o'clock the
jury rendered a verdict of "not guilty." Mr.
Spang, (who was senior counsel,) and Mr. Rus_
sell conducted the case for the defendant, and
they deserve great credit for their masterly
defense. Mr. Russell was only taken into the
case a few hours before the trial commenced•
Mr. Spang's whole soul was literally wrapped
up in the case, and when he went to the jury,
he poured forth such a torrent of sympathetic
eloquence that he carried everything by storm.
The Commonwealth also, under the leadership
of Gco. A. Smith of McConnellsburg, conduct
ed her case splendidly. Smith hammered away
to the last. But Spang had a woman, a baby,
and a pretty sister in the case and—a verdict
of not guilty. We think the verdict was in
accordance with the evidence.
DEATH OF THOMAS H. BURROWES.—
Thomas H. Borrower, L. L. P., President of
the" Agricultural College of Pennsylvania, died
at four o'clock on Saturday afternoon, aged
sixty seven years. Mr. Burrowes possessed a
vigorous and highly cultivated mind, and did
much in furthering the interests of the Com
mon School System in the state. He was also.
prominently identified with politics in the
earlier part of his life and was Secretary of
the Commonwealth from December 15, 1835,
to January 15, 1839 under Governor Ritner.
In 1860 the late Governor Picker appointed
him state superintendent of Common Schools,
which position he held until 1863, display.
ing eminent ability during his entire term.
Mr. Burrowes was the first superintendent
of Orphans' Schools in the state, having been
appointed by Governor Curtin during the last
year of his administration. He was also for
many years the able editor of the Pennsylva
nia School Journal. In February, 1869, he
was appointed to the presidency of the State
Agricultaral college, in which capacity he
sorted until his decease. Mr. Burrowes was a
native of Lancaster county.—Harrisburg Pa

WIIO HAS LOST A LITTLE GIRL?—
last summer a party of Gipsies consisting of
two men, two women and a girl about eleven
years of age, passed through the village of
Belmore, Crawford lounty, going west. Short
ly after passing through the place, a man en
gaged at hauling logs came across a little girl,
aged about fouryears, who had been left in the
road about a mile east of the village, on the
route which the Gipsies had just passed over.
The man who was hauling logs picked up the
child and took it to his home. The little
thing could give no account of itself, and ha s
never yet conveyed an idea who its parents
are. The general impression is that the child
did not belong to the Gipsies, and that they
stole it from some family, and becoming tired
of it they left it in the road as above stated.
There may be somewhere a mourning father
or mother, whom the publication of this item
may lead to the recovery of their lost child.
Will our exchat.ges give it as much circula
tion as possible ?--Afijflintown Independent.
WE copy the following from the Con.
neautrille Courier, as a local item, because it
is a sensible proposition that would be wise
and well for every beard of County Commis
sioners to adopt
"The commissioners in every county in the
State ought to direct the preservation, binding
and Sling of each paper published in their re
spective counties. These files should be pre
served by the recorder wills as much care as
any other records of the county, as they would
form a very complete history of the events in
respective localities where published. Is fu
ture years, to the historian and archeologist,
they would be invaluable, and frequently ex
plain the origin of customs and institutions,
which otherwise would be wholly lost.
The annual cost of their preservation to the
county would be inc ,nsiderable, the advan
tages inexpressible.
B. & B. RAILROAD.—What an impetus
to business a railroad gives. Everybody is
seized with the spirit of enterprise which it
develops. All along the line of the above road
villages are being laid out and towns pre
dicted. The most favorable location we tie
tice is Milltown, about 21 miles west of Bed
ford. This location is in the heart of the ore
region where furnaces, rolling mills, &e., will
quite probably, be situated. There are al
ready two stores, a grist mill, &c., &c., loca
ted at this point. David Wolf, the proprietor,
has laid out a large number of lots and will
dispose of them at public sale, on Tuesday,
the 7th day of March next. Terms one-third
in hand and the balance in two equal annual
payments.
I'. S. AssEsosn..--Jolin A. McKee,
Esq., of_this_placa, , eas on Friday last con
firmed as Assessor of Internal Revenue for the
seventeenth district, in place of J. Sewell
Stewart, deceased. We have no doubt Mr.
McKee will fill the office satisfactorily, pos
sessing all the qualifications necessary to do
so, and that his appointment is as well receiv
ed as any that could have been made. The
only thing suprising about it is that Hunting
don county did not claim ft.—Lewistown Ga
zette.
A RELIC.—Mr. Hughart, President of
the P. & C. railroad company, has in his pos
session, a singular looking stone pipe, picked
up on the bank of Will's creek, on the moun
tain cast of Connellsville by a gentleman
traveling over and inspecting the road. The
pipe is a fox's head, and is supposed to have
been brirried'with one of a tribe of Indians
known as the Fox's which inhabited that sec
tion of country years gone by.—Genius.
Bors.—They are bard on their clothes.
They have no idea of being respectable, and if
you put new suits on them to-day they will
soil them to morrow. It takes a fortune to
clothe them, and . Hold on, mother!
not if you clothe them at Wanamaker &
Brown's, Oak Hall, where boys' clothing is
made durable as well as pretty, and sold very,
very cheap.
