rHE FOURTH UP BROAD TOP.—The
rth, the ever glorioss Fourth I was ushered
rith a perpetual discharge of fire-crack
and other explosives, the gleeful shouts of
ing America, the doubtful hic-cups of
se who indicated too much beer, the bar

st. The fog and clouds suggested an es
'nation of the report of the weather proph
which was ant any more clear than the
spect before us.
luring the night the spirit of mischief had
n abroad. A general up-turning, mixing,
ding together of store-boxes, boards, wag

every hand. The town appeared to have
non a bust! Of course there was nobody

Graw touched the bell and oft we went! if

would have added another stanza to his,
'he Bells." It would have been a singular
ime, another kind of tintinnabulation from
at expressed. We examined the Harris
rg Telegraph, and took up the Tribune, the
eat Tribune, to learn the sad fate of "Pet"

to our numbers, by Capt. John Brewster

course we said the latter, and he went. On
Pleasant Grove we rolled where another

Ter—nobody was going to Huntingdon,
•erybody the other way. At Marklesburg
e were joined by Dr. J. H. Wintrode and
en. F. 11. Lane, of Shirleysburg, and a bevy
' the prettiest young ladies we saw in all the
ip. We almost fell in love with the whole

A passenger train was improvised out of box
ad truck cars. We took a box, and in due
me pulled out for. Dudley. Away we went
p the road, over a grade that was a pretty
envy inclined plane. We stood in the door
nd viewed the magnificent scenery until a
hunk of cinder hit us in the eye, at which we
bed as many tears as Mark Twain did at the
rave of our common ancestor, Adam. While
re were weeping copiously, the engine came
3 a stop, and on looking down the road we
3und we had lost one of our number over
oard—lielLadAssietlxium.b.Led_inta..4.ol,4.
, ater without special injury. He had linen
amentionables on—the starch was completely
aken out of them. After hanging himself out
e dry for a few minutes he was all right. The
ears that we were shedding called forth the
ympathies of the ladies and we quit the weak- '
less, and tat down and talked, and chatted,
.nd laudeed With a yeti interesting fair one
intil Dudley was announced, when she, reluc
antly, or we, or both of us—indeed we can't
ell which—left. We are a little mixed about
t yet. But up the switch-backs we started,
ig-zag. First backwards, then forwards, high
ip the mountain. At last we reached the ter
sinus of the road. Here were several lodges
.f Odd Fellows, the Broad Top City Brass
Sand and a great crowd of citizens to escort
is to the city. Here we met Dr. A. It. McCar
by, and with him trudged info the town and
sut up at Harry Cook's hotel. The procession,
:omposed of the Band, (and an excellent one
t is,) Odd Fellows and citizens, passed through
he streets and then to the church, where the
land discoursed some good music, after which
lie Declaration of Independence was read. It
vas followed by an oration, by the orator of
.he day, Dr. J. H. Wintrode. The Doctor was
a a happy mood and did himself and the oc
msion justice. It was received with great
applause and very much complimented. After
music by the Band, Gen. Lane made a brief and
sappy address, when the audience was dis
nissed by a benediction by the Rev. Shultz.—
f he procession reformed and marched to the
)dd Fellowy Hall, where it was dismissed until
If o'clock, when the dedication ceremonies
mere to take place. In the meantime rain be
;an to descend gradually, and by the time the
arge audience was stowed away it fell in great
luantities. We took an abundance to supply
.he inner man, for a week, at our friend Harry
Cook's well furnished table. Any of our
friends visiting Broad Top City will find Harry
ready to accommodate their wants. His hotel
was filled to overflowing. The Broad Top City
House was also very well patronized and is
well kept.
At 24 o'clock D. D. G. M., William Am
merman, assisted by P. G Levi Evans, Grand
Marshal; (a whole host himself,) P.M., George
Knee, Herald of the North; P. G., S. G.
Miller, Herald of the South ; P. G., C. K. Hor
ton, Herald of the East ; P. G., W. Bare, Herald
of the West ; Past Grands E. H. White and J.
R. Durborrow t Committee on Response and
Chaplain Rev.D.H. Shnl tz proteeded to dedicate
the Hall to the uses for which it was intended,
in the presence of a large number of ladies
and gentlemen. After the ceremony was con
cluded, and a tune by the Band, a brief speech
was inflicted by the writer heredf. Thanks
were returned to everybody, and at half-past
four o'clock we were escorted out of town on
our way back to Saxton. We met many friends
and made many acquaintances, all of whom
we were pleased to meet. The day was a very
happy one and the rain alone marred the en
joyment, but only for an hour or two. There
were no candidates on the ground, and con
sequently politics were not broached!
At Saxton we took supper at the "Waverly,"
and spent an hour with John Fulton, Esq., ad
miring his fine grapes, his splendid fruit, his
maps, books, and specimens, and at 7.15 start
ed down the road. As we pulled out on the
bridge some one espied a lady and gentleman
ahead of us on the trestle. A thrill of horror
ran through the entire party. It was thought
that the train would be obliged to stop until
they could pass over, but no, on went Graw,
steadily and carefully, and when within a few
rods of them they turned aside, apparently un
concerned, and seated themselves along side
watchman, and we glided by saluting them
with bravo I bravo ! At Coffee Run the pic
ulcers were still merry es we passed. Dr.
Wintrode left us at Marklesburg, Capt. Brew
ster at McConnellstown, and at 9 o'clock we
were back to the Morrison, where Mrs. Ray,
the excellent landlady, served up a capital
lunch for us, and an hour later we were
dreaming over the departed Fourth.
CASSVILLE M. E. SABBATH SCHOOL
CONVENTION.-The Methodist Episcopal Sab
bath School Convention, of Cassville charge,
held its fourth annual session, at Asbury
Church, in Tod township, on Wednesday and
Thursday the 21st and 22d of June.
Though this was in a farming community,
and almost in the midst of harvest, yet the
Convention was largely represented by all
classes of citizens, who seemed to act as though
each felt an interest inits success. Their doors
were opened, their tables were loaded, and
their large hearts said, "come one, come all,"
and we did come and were not sent away
empty.
While we favor, and are in sympathy with
the larger gatherings of Sabbath School work
ers, such as State, County or our District
Conventions ; in which to discuss general
principles, suggest new and important meas
ures, and stir up the public mind to a more
generous sympathy v ith, and greater devotion
to the cause of Sabbath Schools, yet our ex
perience teaches us, that where a few isola
ted schools are laboring and acting together
harmonioudly they may accomplish a better
practical result by meeting in council and
adopting a system by which such plans may
be executed, and the best end attained.
Because, first, a larger number of delegates
and active workers can be admitted from each
school, and secondly, by this means they are
made to feel a greater personal responsibility
in what is done, and lastly, they are more at
home, and feel a greater freedom in giving
their own opinions, in stating their circum
stances, and are likely to participate more
freely in all the exercises of the Convention.
Whereas in the former a few are left to do the
work, and to feel the interest, while the mass
remain unawakened, and go home, in most
cases, not to apply what they have merely
heard.
The Contention was favored with the pres
ence of our old friend and former pastor, Rev.
G. W. Rouse, now in charge of Scottsville
Circuit, and three of his noble band of Sab
'nth School workers, Messrs. Bence, Norris,
and Cohill, who with their known ability,
added much to the interest of the Convention,
and to whom we owe a debt of gratitude.
There are six schools on the charge, all of
which were represented by delegates, number
ing in all about forty-two, and most of whom
come to learn and to do.
From what we could glean, some improve
ments have been made since last Convention,
in the selection and training of competent
teachers, in teaching and government, and in
the adoption of the “Serean System" of Uni
form lessons, prepared by Rev. J. H. Vincent,
D. D., and published at the Methodist Episco
pal Book ROOlll3, No. 805 Broadway, New
York.
This must be regarded as an advanced step,
and indicates work, and a promise of success,
But we cannot say with some, "that there is
no room for improvement," and Heaven forbid
that we should ever be so far behind the age,
as not to see, in any school, great room for
improvement, for let me assure every Sabbath
School worker, that circumstanees do always
make room, though the blind may see it not,
nor the bigot yield to its necessity.
One thing that retards the progress of Sab
bath Schools, is the want of promptness on
the part of Officers and Teachers. The Super
intendent bars the same relation to his
school, as the Colonel does to his . regiment,
and each teacher bears the same relation to
his class, as the Captain does to his company;
and as the Colonel directs the movements of
his regiment, so the Superintendent directs
the movements, and gives encouragement to
all in the school; while the teacher applies
himself directly to his class, so that in the
former, the school is disorganized, and in the
...V.V. of the. latter the Zia, in d;onrgo
and in the absence of both, the whole school
is without any responsible party, and the re
sult is a falling off in numbers, and demoral
ized condition of things generally. Officers
ought to put new life and animation` into the
school, and not expect the school to move
them.
Again in most of schools there are certain
prominent characters, who are not of as much
advantage to a school as they should be.
'First among them is the do.nothing, see noth
ing, care nothing, feel-nothing, and want
nothing ; second, the "old-fogy" and a multi
tude of young fogies, who are unwilling that
any new improvement should be introduced or
advanced step taken, and last but not least,
is the notable characters called croakers, who
are not so remarkable for what they know, as
for what they don't know, for what they do,
as for what they don't do; for what is right,
as for what they think is right, and thus every
new measure is promptly met, and the wheels
of progress closed.
The presence, sympathy. and co-operation
of parents, children, officers, and teachers is
indispensible to success in any Sabbath school-
The topics presented, were discussed in a
spirited and intelligent manner, to which the
audience gave remarkable attention, and
many, we believe, went away from the Con
vention resolved to do more and better work
for the Master.
The Committee on Resolutions composed of
A. W. Evans, James Norris and Mrs. Judge
Clarkson, presented the following, which were
adopted:
Resolved, That classes should be formed in
every Sunday School on this circuit, for the
express purpose of training teachers, and that
the most competent instructors should be se
lected to conduct such classes.
Resolved, That abstinence from tobacco
should be specially inculcated in our Sunday
Schools.
Resolved, That the central idea of Sunday
School work, is the glory of God in the salva- -
tion of souls.
Resolved, That it is desirable that Superin•
tendents, Officers and Teachers of Sunday
Schools should be converted persons, zealous
in God's service and with a fervent desire for
the salvation of souls, punctual in all their en
gagements and not slothful.
Resolved, That inasmuch as the Sunday
School is widely extended in its' operations
and influence, inculcating religious principles
and sound morality in the minds of the rising
generation, and as a nation prospers accord
ing to the measure of the will of God, "right
eousness exhalteth a nation," the Sunday
School is one of the main promoters and safe
garde of national prosperity.
Resolved, That the advantages of uniform
lessons in Sunday Schools are obvious and
manifold, and it is the judgement of this con
vention that the Berean Series is the best un
iform system of which we have any knowledge,
and ought to be adopted in all our schools.
Resolved, That Vocal music does not receive
the attention in many of our Sunday Schools
which its importance demands, and that in
creased effort in this direction is desirable.
Resolved, That in view of the great prevail
ing evil the necessity of total abstinence from
all that can intoxicate,should be thoroughly and
specially impressed, by Parents, Pastors, Of
ficers, and Teachers, upon every Sunday
School pupil.
Resolved, That the best thanks of this con
vention are tendered to the citizens of this vi
cinity for their liberal hospitality and courtesy
to friends from a distance.
The next convention will be held in Trough
Creek Church commencing on the—second
Wednesday in June, 1872. _ _
HISTORY OF TUE WAR IN EUROPE.—
The National Publishing Co., of Philadelphia,
have just issued a very valuable history of the
late War between Germany and France, from
the pen of one of our most popular writers,
Mr. James D. McCabe, Jr.
' In a large volume of 800 octavo pages, the
author tells a wonderful story—all, the strong.
er because of its truth. He tells of battles
which have shaken Europe to its center, and
the consequences of •which, even we of the
Western World must feel ; of patriotism, hero
ism, military skill and statesmanship, never
surpassed in history. The author writes with
the weight and force of truth, and the great
merits of his book are its reliability and strict
impartiality.
The book is complete in every particular.. It
describes the causes of the war, and the events
which preceded it: the opening campaign, and
the first reverses of the French ; the effect of
these reverses upon the French people; the
frantic effort to rescue the beaten army, and
the terrible disaster of Sedan; the capture of
the Emperor Napoleon, and en entire army ;
the Revolution in Paris ; the rise and forma
tion of the Republic ; the flight of the Empress
from Paris ; the seige and slirrender of Stras
bourg and the frontier fortresses of Prance ;
the triumphal advance of the German armies
to Paris; the efforts of Bazaine to escape from
Metz, and the final surrender of his army; the
investment and siege of Paris ; the detailed
history of this great siege ; its plans, sorties,
battles, successes and failures; the course oi
events in the beleagured city, given is the
form of a full diary of the events of the siege;
the campaigns on the Loire, and in other por
tions of France; the negotiations, the surren
der of Paris, and the treaty; the naval history
of the war; the diplomatic history on both the
German and French sides ; the history of the
formation y the great German Empire , the
proclaiming of King William Emperor, and the
realization of German unity ; the events of the
civil war and siege of Paris, its terrible scenes
of bloodshed and vandalism, with a minute
ness, graphicness and brilliancy, which leaves
nothing to be desired. No intelligent person
can afford to be uninformed as to these events
which have left so deep an impression on the
world's history, and few will fail tO'read this
splendid work ; or, having read it, to endorse
it as the Standard American History of the
War.
In this age of sensational literature, we can
not too highly commend this brilliant and
thoughtful narrative to our readers. The
book is handsomely bound, and illustrated
with 150 maps, portraits, battle scenes, and
views of the principal localities connected with
the war. No expense has been spared by the
publishers to make it worthy d pf the support of
the public; an 1 we predict for it an immense
sale, especially as its low price brings it with
in the reach of all. It is publishad in both
English and German, sold by subscription
only, and the publishers want agents 'ln every
county.

BRIEF MENTION--
The cherry season is about over.
The weather is sweltering hut.
Port's nes building is under too£
The brick work on the new Presbyterian
lurch has been commenced.
A company of colored juveniles paraded, a
la 1,1111U:ire, on the 4th inst., under command
of Capt. Haywood' Toliver. ,
A slight fire occurred on Railroad street, os
Thursday afternoon last, occasioned by s
spark from a passing locOmotive.
We tip our old slouch hat, and make our
salaam, to the members of the Silver Cornet
Band for the serenade a few nights ago.
A number of our editorial brethren have
been eased lately—vrith gold headed canes at
that. We have no doubt they fully merited
what they received.
The editors of the Altoona Tribine succeed,
ep in catching a crippled raccoon and they
have attempted a huge hoax on the strength
of it.
The Fourth of July passed off very quietly
in Huntingdon. There was no difficulty in
getting the usual supply of whiskey but there
appeared to be a lack of patriotism.
We stated in our last issue that the United
Brethren Church, in this place, would be ded
icated on the 14th of July. We should of said
an the 16th of July. We are scary that the
mistake was made.

We had the pleasure of taking by the hand,
the other day, our old friend, Wm. A. Saxton,
"Esq., of Waohington, D. C., who is here for the
purpose of spending the heated term among
his native hills. Welcome, "Fahs."
EASTERN BROAD TOP RAILROAD
Otrans:NT.. - . - ThIS - Comprtity - woe to organize iu
Philadelphia, on the 3d day of July. It has
a corps of engineers on the route now from
Three Springs to IMurcland'i Gap of Sideling
Ilill. This road if made will connen with' the
P. R. R. at or near Mt. Union. 'Froni present
indications the prospect is good for having it
made, and if so, it will develope a large amount
of Iron Ore that will be very valuable, and no
. doubt will add to. the worth ofour county. The
following letter has been received in regard to
it:
EDITOR HUNTINGDON JOURNAL :—The engi
neers, of whom Mr. J. B. Wingate, of Chester,
Eastern Shore of Md., is chief, in the employ
of the Messrs. Roberts, of Philadelphia, com
menced the survey of the East Broad Top Rail
Road on the Ist inst. They are at present
grading a line from what is called the "Little
Gap,"—sometimes "Moreland's Gar —a low
depression in Sideling Hill, in an easterly di
rection toward the village of the Three Springs,
and expect, if practicable, to locate the route
permanently within the next eight or nine
months, to some point on the Penn's. R. R.,
perhaps at Mount Union'. '
This road, if built in a reasonable time, will
ultimately open up the now hidden resources
of this long neglected section of the county,
and the vast deposites of iron ore,undeveloped.
for want of some such improvement, will sure
ly attract the attention of capitalists and bu
siness men.
Our grain harvest is about over. Several
farmers finished up the last ofJune,—the earli
est known in the memory of man, the crop is
decidedly a good one, in fact heavy. The hay
crop is the lightest for years. Corn, though a
little late, looks very promising, with a broad
acreage planted in this vicinity.
The - chicken cholera here is terrible, sweep
ing all before it as with the besom of destruc
tion.
Candidates for office are really plenty here
abouts, and are unusually sociable. Moat of
theta ; however, are real clever fellows, and
have ciuite: a longing desire' to leave their
country. SUBURBAN.
Clay township, July 8, 1871
BURGLARY.—On the night of the 26th
ult., the store and office of S. & B. It. Hatfield,
at Juniata Irtin Works,' near Alexandria, this
county, were broken open, by forcing the lock
off of the front door and a large Evans & Wat
son safe blown open, and the door broken in
pieces. There was no money in the safe as it
-rmycae.
No goods Were taken from the store. Money
appears to have been the sole object. The
tools were left in the office, consisting of brace
and bitts, drills, chisels and crow-bars. They
Wore identified as the tools ofWilliam Laird,
Cabinet-maker, in Alexandria. Two suspi
cious looking-characters came to the works
on the morning of the 26th ult., and Made
some inquiries. They are strongly suspi
cioned for being the scoundrels .who perpe
trated-the Yillainny and',they can he identified.
The supposition is that they arc the same
party who made the raid on the Adams Ex

To N EBRASKA. CALIFORNIA, AND
KANSAS, AND THE B. & M. R. R. LANDS.-
The "Burlington Route," so called, lies right
in the path of the Star of Empire. It runs
almost immediately in the center of the great
westward movement of emigration. Crossing
Illinois and lowa, it strikes the Missouri river
at three points.
These three points are the gateways into
three great sections of the trans-Missouri re
gion.
The northern gate is Omaha, where the
great Pacific road will take you to the land of
gold and grapes, sunny mountains, and per
petual summer.
The middle gate is Plattsmouth, which
opens upon the south half of Nebraska, south
of the Platte river, a region unsurpassed on
the continent for agriculture and grazing.
Just here are the B. 8: M. Railroad lands, con
cerning Geo. S. llarris, the laud officer at
Burlington, Tows, can give you all informs
tion, and in the heart of them is Lincoln, the
State Capital and present terminus of the
roild— - - .
The Southern gate leads to - Kansas, by con
nections with the St. Joe Boad at Hamburg,
running direct to St. Joe and Kansas City.
The trains of the Burlington run smoothly
and safely, and make all connections. It run
the best of coaches, Pullman Palace and
Pullman dining cars, and should you take the
journey for the journey's sake alone, you will
be repaid; or take it to find ahome or a farm
and you cannot find either better than among
the B. & B. lands, where you can buy on ten
years' credit, and at a low price. tf.
