REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVENTION--
In accordance with the notice given by the
Chairman of the Republican County Commit
tee, the Delegates elected on Saturday, the
12th inst., met in the Hall of the Court House,
in the Borough of Huntingdon, on Tuesday,

tense heat, and a motion was made, and car
ried, to adjourn for half and hour.
The Convention was very disorderly and
unmanageable up to this time, owing princi
pally to the small space it was forced to occu
py and outside interference. In half an hour
it again assembled with closed doors.

[Reported by IL 31cDivirr, Esq.]
COURT AFFAIRS.—A ugust Sessions,
1871.—Cases tried.
Commonwealth vs. John Winskey. Assault
and battery. True bill. Not guilty, and the
prosecutor to pay the costs.
Commonwealth vs. J. H. Isett. Assault and
battery. True bill. Defendant plead guilty,
and submitted. Sentenced to pay a fine of $5
and costs.
Commonwealth vs. James Barnes.
This was an indictment for perjury, and was
founded upon evidence given by Barnes, the
defendant, against Geo. L. Smith, both of Cass
township, In an action tried at November
Sessions of 1870, in which an indictment was
brought by Barnes against Smith for shooting
at him with intent to kill or maim. It was
there testified by Barnes that on the evening
of Friday, August sth, a little after dusk,
when he and busboy were passingnear Smith's
residence, he saw Smith in his field with a
gun, whicF he pointed at him and discharged.
This evidence was corroborated by that of his
boy, and two or three other witnesses who
were passing at the time and testified that
they saw a man they took to be Smith in that
locality with a gun. It was shown by a num
ber of witnesses on the part of the Common
wealth, that Smith had left home on that day
about 11 o'clock in the forenoon, and did not
return till 10 or 11 that night, and the only
question to be decided was whether the state
ment of Barnes was wilfully false, made know
ing it to be untrue, or made recklessly, with
out any reason or foundation.
The-case involved an immense amount of
testimony, some sixty witnesses being examin
ed, and occupied the time of the Court almost
three days going to the jury on Thursday eve
ning.
The jury after remaining out all night on
the question of costs, returned on Friday
morning with a verdict of acquittal, - taxing the
defendant with $25 of the costs, and the ba
lance on the plaintiff.
The counsel for the Commonwealth was as
sisted by Messrs. Petrikin and S. S. Blair.
Counsel for defense, Messrs. Speer, J. S. Blair
and Fleming.
Commonwealth vs. John Elliott. Indictment.
Larceny. True bill. Guilty.
The defendant in this case was a "traveling
man" of strongly marked Aboriginal features,
who had been sojourning in flys place a few
days during the month of June last, and had
taken lodgings in the meantime with the
prosecutor Eli Barker who attends the livery
stables of Mr. Carmon, on Canal Avenue,
where he enjoyed the luxury of a bed on the
floor, and lived by picking up odd jobs around
town. When about to leave there to push his
fortunes further, he accidently stowed away
amongst his effects the watch chain of the
prosecutor, and it would seem from the evi•
deuce leaving about as fair a presumption that
the watch was atached to it as would be affor
ded in regard to the proximity of a fox to see
his WI sticking out of a hole. Some $2, 11.
S. Currency it seems had mysteriously disap
peared at the same time from the pocket of
Eli, who, enraged at such viper like ingrati
tude at the hands of the man he had warmed
and fed, proceeded at once to place the minis
ters ofjustice on the track of the fugitive, and
the consequence was that the unfortunate
John was caught and caged, arraigned and
convicted, and will, no doubt, be treated to a
free ride over the mountains, and a brief so
journ within the walls of the WeAern Peni
tentiary.
Commonwealth vs. John Houck. Indictment,
assault and battery with the intent to commit
a rape. True bill. Verdict guilty.
This offence was committed upon the per
son of Elizabeth Hounstein, a married and
rather elderly woman, living within the
bounds of this borough, at her home, in Aug
ust 1869, two years ago, since which time the
offender has been evading the officers of jus
tice until recently.. The offense with which
he was charged was clearly made out, and
was of a very aggravated character. The
prisoner is also a native of the town, and
though but a mere youth appears to be rapidly
descending the steep of crime. He was no
doubt under the influence of liquor at the
time the fiendish act was perpetrated.
Commonwealth vs. Hannah Huff.
This was an fiction brought and prosecu i til ,
against Samuel Huff and Hannah, his wife, for
assault and battery upon the person of Bridget
Meehan, the indictment having been brought
against both parties, and Samuel having for
fieited his recognizance leaving Hannah to
stand the brunt of the action alone. Bridget
Meehan the prosecutrix, an old lady of Celtic
origin and according to her statement, a "poor
lone widdy with five small children" living in
Tyrone, it seems was passing the house of the
tlercusl.... to, ii. CV, , ,,,.; n-,.....-1. co Ns-22 all in. in
April last, accompanied by a small dog, and
when afew rods from the house her dog
shot by Huff, who, together with his wife and
dog, fell upon the old lady and beat and wor
ried her unmercifully with stones and sticks,
tearing her clothing, and otherwise injuring
her. To this accusation the defendant had
I nothing to answer further than to assert that
the assault was commenced by Bridget her
self, who fired the first stone, when the en
gagement b,came general along the whole
line. The Court and Jury failed to see the
thing in the same light, and Hannah was
found guilty in manner and form as indicted,
and re-committed for sentence, taking the
matter however very philosophically and man
ifesting the same amount of pluck on her de
parture for Fort Neely which was displayed
by her during the trial, declaring that she
would just as soon go there as anywhere else.
The above were all the criminal cases tried
out of a large batch on hand at the commence
ment of the sessions. Some ten or a dozen
cases were ignored by the Grand Jury and a
large number disposed of by settlement and
otherwise, •
civic T,jaT,
But one case was disposed of, which was
an action of assumpsit, brought by the heiF4
of Samuel Caldwell, deceased, agaiiist the
Administrators of Charles Barclay, deceased,
to recover a share of the proceeds of a
tract of land on -Ray's Hill, in Tod township,
sold in the year 1854. The claim was found
ed upon an agreement made in the year 1848,
which, it seems, had never been placed on
record, arid the necessary steps to secure a
special performance of the coutract not 104 ,
lug been taken, the plaintiff haying reposed
upon his rights from the year 1854, OP tinge
when his right of action accrued, up to 1887, the
defendant plead the statute of limitation,which
the Court decided to be a complete answer to
the plaintiff's title and a conclusive bar to the
action; and so ruling instructed the jury to
find Ikr the defendant. Verdict accordingly.

A FOLLOWER Or THE CROSS DECEIV
ED —The new Methodist Church ; at Bedford,
is a very neat and unobtrusive structure, with
a handsome spire, surmounted by a metalic
cross, some ten or twelve feet in height. This
addition of a cross is a departure from the
usual plain manner of finishing Methodist
Episcopal Churches and shows a disposition
not to allow the Catholic and Episcopalian
Churches to monopolize this symbol of Chris
tianity.
A few weeks ago Rev. Father Brown, of
Bedford, announced that his New Church
would be dedicated by Rt. Rev. Bishop Do
menic, of Pittsburgh. A number of strangers
found their way to Bedford to be present on
the occasion. Among others were our mutu
al friends H— and K—. These gentle
men concluded, on Sabbath morning, before
the commencement of the religious exercises,
to saunter about the town and see what was
to be seen. They started out Julian street
in the direction of the Springs, turned down
John street and in a few moments were face
to face with the new Methodist Episcopal
Church. K— looking up at and admiring
the new edifice, inquired of 11— where the
new Catholic Church was located. 11—
cant a glance of superior knowledge at his
companion, as much as to say, "you goosey ,
don't you see it right before you I': and pointed
to the cross as conclusive evidence of the
correctness of his identification. They strolled
on past the church, paying it some very hand
some compliments, when K— said "H—,
where is the old Catholic church?"
ll—
quietly pointed, with a knowing look to what
he supposed to be the remains of that church,
but which was, in reality, the unfinished
Episcopalian Church. K— suggested that
it had not the appearance of the ruins of an
old church, but H— ejacu:ated, "zounds
hadn't he been there before, and didn't he
know? They faced down Richard street and
in a few minutes were in front of the veritable
new Catholic Church. said it was the
new unfinished Lutheran church and together
they sought their hotel. When the hour for
service arrived, K— started alone to find
the new Catholic Church. A few minutes'
walk found him in front of the new Methodist
Episcopal Church. He appeared to have some
misgivings that things were mixed. He ap
proached a juvenile and inquired, cautiously,
what church occupied the square diagonally
across from the Court House. He was in
formed that it was the Presbyterian Church.
He then inquired what church was before
them and was told the Methodist Episcopal
Church and that the new Catholic Church was
the same that they had taken for the unfinish
ed Lutheran Church in the morning.
K— declares, that in the future, when he
hears 11— asseverate that he knows and
hasn't he been there before that he will re
member bow he mixed the churches at Bed
ford.
SAD ACCIDENT.-1 little daughter of
Wm. Triester, aged about two years, was kill
ed one day last week under circumstances
well calculated to call forth the deepest sym
pathies of our nature. ; She was playing in the
sad on the road near Mr. Milliken's, in Derry
township, when an ore team came down the
hill. The driver as usual took hold of the
lock at the back and so continued until near
the foot, when changing his position he dis
covered to his horror that a little girl had
been run over by the front wheel. He caught
hold of her before she got under the hind
wheel, but the poor sufferer was almost cut in
two by the heavy weight, and lived but a short
time. The scene when the mangled little one
was brought to the bereaved mother may be
imagined but cannot be described, for to her
and all around a light in the household had
been quenched.—Lewistown Gazette.
THREE PERSONS INJURED. =On Sat
urday evening last, three men named William
Crawford, Adam Ernest and William Hall,

were called to the Patterson house to give the
sufferers medical attention. Tne wounded
men are improving.—Hifilin Independent.
A LAB, S4CfAl l PARTY.—A large
social party was given at the residence of
Hon. John Scott, on last Thursday evening,
which was attended by the youth and beauty
and the wit and wisdom of the town. It was
Is happy, social union of the many personal
friends of tile distinguished Senator and his
estimable lady and their daughter, Miss Ellis
Scott, and all enjoyed themselves so cleverly
that the recollections of the pleasant evening,
spent on this occasion, will never be effaced
from memory's tablet. All endeavored to add to
the enjoyment of the hour, and universal cheer'
fulness and pleasantry prevailed, We hope
that there may be many happy unions of the
kind in the future, and that the leading citi
zens of old Huntingdon may ever he willing
to meet and spend a few hours thus in social
pleasantry.
" STOP MY PAPER."—One of our ex
changes has the following allegory, which we
commend to the careful consideration of those
gentleman who, the moment they see anything
which displeases them in the columns of their
local journal, rush to the printing office and
cry out, "Stop my paper."
A, certain man hit his toe and fell head
long to the ground. He was vexed and under
the influence of anger and self sufficiency he
kicked the earth right saucily, With lraper
turhable gravity he looked to ace the . earth
itself dissolve and come to naught. But the
earth remained, and only his poor foot was in
jured in the encounter. This is the way of
man. An article in a newspaper touches him
in a weak spot, andforthwith he sends to stop
Id. paper, With great complacency he looks
to see 'the crash, when he fin4s ho Ws lilt his
own tqe against 4 world that does not percep
tibly feel the shook, and injures no one but
himself.
THE WAY TO DO IT.—The stock of Mr•
Cree, which was damaged by the fire on
Wednesday night, w.as insured in the Andes
Insurance Company of Cincinnati, Ohio, by its
gentlemanly agent in this Place, Mr. Will De-
Artultt, The day after the tire an inyentury of
the stock was taken and the amount of the
insurance money handed over to Mr. Crem
This promptness, on the part of this Coinpany,
should recommend it to our citizens as one
worthy their confidence. Mr. DeArmitt will
be happy to take risks, at his office, at the
Penn'a. Railroad Depot.
MlLlTAny.—Pursuant to previous ar
rangement, a meeting of the noble, bold and
patriotic sons of Huntingdon Furnace, and
surroundings, was held in Huntingdon Fur
s- ce school house, on last Saturday evening,
to organige a Military company. A, roll was
prepared and many signatures added. The
result was flattering.
Another meeting will be held on next Thurs
day evening, at the same place, and all persons
desirous of uniting with the company can have
the privilege of enrolling their names.
KILLED.—^A man named Owen Diho,
employed on a freight train, on tile Penn'a,
Central Railroad, was precipitated heneath the
cars, at Spruce Creek, on the 16th inst., and
had both Iggs cut off and died from the effects
of the ateident in a few honrs.
A HANDSOME LIVERY STOCK.—We
dropped into the Livery Stable of A. B. Flood,
the other day, and found every thing in the
neatest and trimest order. The vehicles had
just been overhauled and looked as bright
and clean as a newly painted theatre. The
harness were just out of the shop and glittered
in the sun like a new set of silver ware, and
the horses were as spry as kittens. It is a real
pleasure to sport With such a rig. We mean
to when we get time.

MORE FAST RUNNING.—The fast line
east on the Pennsylvania railroad accomplish
ed the feat on Wednesday morning of running
from Altoona to Harrisburg—one hundred and
thirty-two miles—in two hours and fifty min
utes, or forty-seven miles an hour. The dis
tance between Huntingdon and Marysville—
ninety-one miles—was run in an hour and
fifty minutes, or about fifty miles an hour.
The engine making this time was No. 193 and
the engineer Samuel Free.—Har. Telegraph.
CAMP MEETING NEAR CASNVILLE.—A
camp meeting, under the supervision of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, will be held on
the old Taylor Ground near Cassville, to com
mence Friday, August 25th. Boarding and
horse feed will be furnished at the ground.
No hnckstering of any kind will be allowed

BY request of Rev. J. A. Clemm, we
announced in the JouaNAL of the 9th inst.,
that a Camp Meeting of the United Brethren
in Christ, would be held on the land of A.
Price, midway between Orbisonia and Scotts'
nille, commencing on the 7th of September.
This latter was a mistake. The Camp Meeting
will commence on the Ist of September.
BANQUET OF EDEN—One of the most
elegant perfumes which we have enjoyed for
some time is Banquet of Eden, distilled from
fragrant flowers of eastern climes. It is a
most splendid article. Each bottle is accom
panied by a large photograph of "Eve's Re
pentance," which is alone worth the price of a
bottle of the perfumery. For sale at Dr. Pat
ton's Drug Store.
TALL CORN.—Our notice last week of
tall corn, raised by Mr. McElroy, seems to be
eclipsed by our friend M. L. Schaffner, of
Brady Township, who informs us that he had
on his place at that time, corn averaging 12
feet 10 inches over a five acre field. Kishoco
galas Valley is therefore ahead so far as
beard from.
FIRE.—On Wednesday evening, fire
was discovered in the Book Store of J. E.
Crec, on Fourth street, above Broap Top cor
ner, and by a prompt effort it was extinguish
ed, without any serious loss, but the contents
of the store were very much injured by smoke
and water. Insured.
COLLISION.—On Monday morning last,
the "shifter" and wood train, on the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, collided, near Henry's cross

LITERAR/ NOTICES.—The Manufactur
er and Builder.—The August number of this
sterling periodical has been duly received. It
presents its usual array of able and instructive
articles, all of the highest practical use to tl4
manufacturer and artisan. Among others age
papers on "Workmen's Cottages ;" <Taints
made of Copper ;" "Interesting Tests of Gird
ers;" "Machinery and Machine-shops;" "Man
ufacture of Horn and Tortoise-Shell ;" and one
entitled "New Improvement on the Sunbeam,"
which practically as well as theoretically de
monstrates the falsity of the thedry, lately ad
tanced.by Gen. Pleasonton, of bringing ani
mals and vegetables to rapid maturity by ea
posing them to solar rays passed through violet
glass : This publication is one that no me
chanic can do without. It avoids technicalities
and deals in the practical in such a way as to
be readable and interesting. Its cheapness
places it within the reach of all, its subscrip
tion price being only $1,50 per year ; besides
which, the publishers °ger liberal premiums

TO NEBRASKA, CALIFORNIA, AND
KANSAS, AND THE B. dz N. 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 unsurpassei on
the continent for agriculture and grazing.
Just here are the B. te M. Railroad lands, con•
cerning (leo. S. Barris, the land officer at
Burlington; lows, can give you all informs
tion, and in the heart of them is Lincoln, the
State Capital and present terminus of the
road. _ _
The Southern gate leads to Kansas, by con
nections with the St. Joe Road at Hamburg,
running direct to St. Joe and Kansas City.
The trains of the Burlington run smoothly
and safely, and mak: 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 a home or a farm
and you cannot find either better than among
the B. & K. lands, where you can buy on ten
years' credit, and at a low price. tf.
