The poor wretches who make two ends meet by flourish ing the pen and pencil cannot always elect when they well enjoy a little recreation from toil and care. The truth is that when Sum mer, lovely queen, dres-ed in verdant robes, rules the season, the disciples of Faust and Guttenberg are chained to their tripods, with fetters of steel, as it were, to vindicate the great truths embodied in the annual campaign between the owls and th, bats, and cannot desert the:r positions scarcely, for a day, lest they be captured by the enemy. But the usual campaign being over, the weather being fair and the roads in excellent condition, we determined to see some of our patrons and make their acquaintance and ascertain wheth er a railroad could really be built to McAlevy's Fort, r Boalsburg, without money. We were under the impression that many of our read ers thought co, because they have shown no disposition to take hold, but we assure them that it is all a mistake, it cannot be done. It will take a few rusty dollars. Well, to carry our resolution into effect, we borrowed a horse. saddle and head getr, and after two whole days spent in constant prepa ration, we mounted our bold Campeador, with a huge satchel beneath our left arm and a plia ble stick in our right hand and clattered out of town, "jog along jog, jog," up Stone Creek Avenue, for eleven miles, past "Screech Owl Bend," the residence of the sage of Oneida, so Conprobst Mills. Here we reined up and proceeded to the residence of that prince of good-fellows, Henry Conprobst, and were made happy in his sight. After dinner we ex amined his splendid new barn, erected by Mr. Chaney, and found it to be a capital design, far superior to any thing which we have ever seen of the barn kind. The arrangements are complete. It would be well for persons wish ing to build good and improved barns to fash ion them after this one. We made the ac quaintance of Charles Slack, the wagon-ma ker, Martin Getz, blacksmith, Samuel Barnett, Edward Couch, James A. Curwin, Alex. My ton, farmers, and A. L. Couch, school teacher, and were glad to meet them. We put up for the night with our friend and became the sub ject of quite a number of his sly jokes, but we won't say any thing about them ; not 'even about the wasp. It was suggested that we could take our own time to getting up in the morning, but we suspected that our host de sired to save a breallast, and consequently we were up directly after the cook. Barton Greene, Esq., has a very fine store, at this place, and sells a large quantity of goods. When we wore ready to depart for regions higher up, our host proposed to accompany us to Cum and did The land begins to im prove fro,. Conprobst's north, and limestone, here and there, begins to crop out. We pulled up at Curtis Kidder's and deter mined to hear whether that agitator had any thing new on the subject of the railroad, but while he was brimful it was only the accumu -1 itions of the old. Us talked railroad, be sighed railroad, and he caught the least fa vorable report with avidity, and added new thoughts. Oh K.dderl K dder! when your darling is a success, and thousands are enjoy ing the fruits of your agitation, there wIl. be at least one, if uo more, to recollect your earnestness. This is about the average num ber who never forget good offices of this kind. We left him with reluctance and passed through a most secluded defile to the base of an old furnace stack where, many years ago, some very unwise persons endeavored to make a fortune, on a small scale, out of the iron busi ness. Just beyond we , passed Mr. Joseph huiton's and reined in at Cumminsville. Here we met John lt'Alevy, David Cunning ham and James Dickey. They were in a bet ter humor than you generally find men in the midst of a threshing machine break. They were manifesting the patience of stolid phi losophers. Here our friend Conprobst bid us adieu and retraced his steps, and we beaded to Ennisville, where we put up with our friend, W. S. Smith, Esq., of the firm of Smith & Son, store-keepers. At Mr. Smith's we had the pleasure of partaking of a splendid dinner with S. W. Myton, Esq., of Davenport, lowa, and his accomplished bride, now on a bridal tour. Our friend Smith lives perfectly at home, and has all the comforts that any man can want. Ennisville is handsomely located at the junction of the roads leading from Peters burg and Huntingdon to M'Alevy's Fort. The surrounding country i 3 heavy lime stone clay. The only person that we saw at this place, that we were very anxious to do something fot, was T. F. Shipton, but Thomas was in vulnerable I At two o'clock, p.m., we took up the line of march for the Fart, and fifteen minutes later we were inside its hospitable walls. Jackson Harmon, elsq , brought us down and we sur rendered gracefully. Jack is a whole-souled fellow and the fat of the land was at our dis posal. We made the aCquainLance of a num ber of c tzens in and about the place, among those were It. V. Stewart, Geo. McAlevy, Mc- Birney, Harper, Little, James Barr, the Brick ets, &c., &c. We spent the evening with the brethren of United Brother's Lodge of I. 0. 0. F. very pleasantly. They have a very neat an . well-adapted lodge room and are growing rapidly in numbers. The village of M'Alevy's Fort does not contain over two hundred in habitants yet there is a vast amount of trade conducted here. It is the depot for supplying the greater portion of Jackson township. On Sabbath morning, we rode over to Green wood Furnares,o. distance of five miles, to hear the Rev. Gwynn, who preached a most excel lent discourse. This appointment belongs to the Manor H.ll charge. We took dinner with Mr. Gwynn, at Mr. DeArmit's, and spent the remainder of the time, until Monday morning, with Mr. Withers, the accomplished and gen tlemanly manager of the Furnaces. Mr. With ers has occupied the position which he now occupies for fourteen years and upwards, and his merits as a manager, in all these long years, have been severely tested, and he has come out with flying colors. Mr. Withers has a very commodious reLideace and a very of fectionate and interesting family around him. The ladies of the household have our thanks for their handsome entertainment of vocal and instrumental music. Mr. Shultz c'erks the store and Mr ffaskett the office, and both are clever fellows. Greenwood Furnaces are located in a pock et of Jackson township formed by Broad and 1 stone mountains. We are not so sure about the come of the latter. The first furnace was lo cated, in this outeof-the-way place, some thirty-seven years ago, and the second one during the war. They both consume charcoal. The company has some forty odd thousand acres of timber land, from which they can supply them, with this indispensable article, for thirty-seven years to come. There are over two hundred hands employed but they are not now running to their fullest rapacity. The new furnace is out of blast and the old one is only yielding about thirty two tons of pig metal per week. The ore is brought, a dis Lance of two miles, from the mines, by means of a tram-road, which lessens the expense of transportation very much. The metal is taken to Lewistown, a distance of fifteen miles, and shipped to purchasers, who manufacture car• wheels out of it, for which, it is said, to be a very superior article. On Monday we returned to M'Alevy's Fort, took dinner at the only hotel in the place, kept by Lieu. E. Little, and immediately there after bid good-bye to the kind friends who had shown 113 so much hospitality and passed Ea- nisvillo; took the right hand road for Sharer's Cre — K,7a - nd jagged on doiird, through a Igo" - Ilan firming country, dotted all along the way with cozy farm houses, to Saulsburg. Here we called upon that genial gent!cman, Andy Conover, who has just ensconced himself in one of the neatest residences we saw along the way, with everything as nest and bright about him as a new pin. He introduced us to Mr. Ash, who reminded us, slyly, that we nms'nt be too hard on them, and that Kidder, good fellow, was the fullest man of railroad in the state. Ash only meant to compliment. We hare so :re news for Kidder when we see him. ain't about mineral paint either I %I c also met Jesse Musser, Wiliiam Port and G. W. Linttburst and their eyes were opened—in the future they will have light. From Saulsburg we sauntered le surely down t 3 Manor Hil, and put up at the Morrison House. We have a partial.ty for Morrison Houses. ‘Ve were very hospitably entertained by Mr. Morrison, the proprietor, and his good lady. We spe:t the evening, v try pleasantly, with Dorsey Silk knitter, Esq. Manor Hill looks as if it had been built in the days of the Penns and al lowed to scale off ever since. From Manor Hill to Mooresville and Neff's Mills the land is of the best limestone and an air of thrift and happy circumstances present themselves on every hand. At Neff's Mills we met Sheriff Johnston and his son, who have a store at this place and are driving a thriving business, and Mr. Neff, the proprietor of the Mills. From here down to Cottage the same splendid country is on both sides of the splendid high way. At Cottage we made the acquaintance of Mr. Troutwine, the Post-master, and found him driving a brisk and lucrative store busi ness and Mr. Long, the landlord, and Messrs. Quinn, the Shoemakers. A mile or two down the road we fell in wills Squire Hamilton and accompanied him into Petersburg. We put up with our friend, of many years standing, James M. Snowden, one of the proprietors of the Petersburg Foundry. James was one of the most active Republicans, a few years ago, in Bedford county. He is scrupulously hon est ; a man of principle and of backbone. Pe tersburg is growing quite rapidly , and in u few years will be quite a place. On the three o'clock train we returned to Huntingdon to find very unwelcome news—the severe illness of our wife, but she is recovering rapidly We were most hospitably treated by all whom we met and they have our warmest thanks. A word in conclusion in regard to the rail road. We learned, at Greenwood Furnaces, that the engineers were endeavoring to secure 4 route from Milroy to Boalsburg with a fail prospect of success. This contemplated route will bring them to the head waters of atone Creek, within eight miles of WAlevy's Fcrt. which would leave only a gap to be filled, be tween Huntingdon and Boaleburg, of twenty five miles. The road, we think, can be graded, the entire distance fur three thousand dollar: per mile, on an average, exclusive of bridging. It could follow the bed of the S one Creel. every foot of the way. We also learned that the Lewistown, Centre ane Spruce Creek rail road company intend 0 make the terminus of their roan, at Bellefonte and not at Tyrone, of Spruce Creek .as heretofore contemplated. The Snoe Shoe road is putting eight miles, from Bellefonte, in the direction of Boalsburf . , under contract, and the line from Lewisburg is being rapidly pushed forward. This is the state of the case north, what will Hutitih,gdon do to make a connection with these roads ? AID-DE-CAMP WITH THE RANK OF COL ONEL.--Ilis Excellency, Gov. John W. Geary, Commander-in-Chief of the National Guard, of Pennsylvania, has commissioned, J. Hall S:usser, Esq., of this place, aid-de-camp with the rank of Colone!, to date from the 29th day of November, 1871. We congratulate our friend on this hand some acknowledgement of his long and ardu ous services during the late rebellion, and as sure Governor Geary that his honors could not have fallen upon more worthy shoulders. Colonel Musser, during the late civil war, entered the service as a private soldier, in 1861, at the youthful age of seventeen years, and served with great credit, without inter• mission, for a term of four ymrs, until the close of the rebellion, in 1865. lie was at tached, during the entire period of service, to the gallant old 45th Regiment of Pennsylva nia Veteran Voltinteers. The regiment was originally commanded by Col. Welsh and L:eut. Col. James A. Beaver, and was attached, the greater portion of the service, to the famous Oth corps commanded by Maj. Gen. Burnside. The subject of tills notice was with his Regi meat in the campaign in south Carolina, in the early part of the war, thes in Virginia, next in Kentucky, at the siege of Vicksburg, then back to East Tennessee and winding up with Grant at Appomattox. Although he participated in numerous battles and skirmish es he was fortunately never wounded, but made a hair-breadth escape at the siege of Eaoxville, when his musket was shot out of his hands. A younger brother entered the service, in 1861, at the age of fifteen, as a pri vate, iu the 110th Regiment of Pennsylvania Volunteers ; and served with distinction, until he was killed, at the battle of the Wilde:ness, in 1864. We wish the Colonel long life and the many rewards which peace brings to the honest and faithful soldier. THE WESTERN UNION TELEGRAPH IMPOSITION.-We do hope that the day is not far distant when the government will establish a cheap telegraphic system, and until this i, done the telegraph will be of comparatively little value to those who are in nunlmtte cir cumstances. We do think that the Western Union Te egraph Company is one of the most unreasonable monopolies in existence. A few days ago it became necessary to send a num ber of messages between the this point and Bedford.a distance of fifty miles, but be cause the company has no direct line to that point,-we were compelled to pay forty cents for each dispatch, of ten words, transmitted over it- lines, thus making us pay twenty cents a dispatch for their own want of a.: commodations. We hope our business men will patronize the Atlantic an l Pacific which is much more I.beral in its rates and is an op- position I.ne to th, above named monopoly. CHANGE OF NUMER ILS.—In speaking of a cross street and a long street together, the numeral should be used first, thus: sth and Hill streets, not Hill and sth streets. Custom has established this as correct, besides it is more euphonious. By the way we think our authorities should anew the numbering system of the town, by authorizing the use of the word ' , North" for numbt-rs of cross streets north of the river. The time will come when the south side of the river will b. built up ; the num bers then will be duplicate; and a reference, then, to title, and other papers made now, wid refer to two separate properties. For exam- Fie, a deed or mortgage on N 0.530, sth street, examined twenty years hence, would leave the examiner in doubt as to which side of the river the property might be. Now is the proper time to commence to use the word north, and, besides, it sounds, much better. 1:4 LIMBO AGAIN.—John Houck, the young man who broke jail in August last, while awaiting sentence for assault and bat tery with intent to commit a rape on the per sou of Elizabeth Hounstein, was re-arrested, on Friday night, by Policeman Fisher, and returned to his old quarters, where, we hope, he may oe kept until he takes his departure for Allegheny. Houck has escape.) twice from prison, and it behooves SherilF Houck to use extra vigilance in hls safe keeping, in order that justice may 11 rucutea out to him. DEATH OF DAVID WURDEN.—Directly after ourpaper had gone to pram last week, the sad intelligence reached here, that Deere lVonrmc. Esq , Superinteudent of the KomblC Coal and Iron Company's Furnaces, at Rid dlesburg, Bedford county, had died, on Monday evening, the 11th inst., of pneumonia, in the 46th year of his age. Mr. tVorden's death, though a comparative stranger in Bedford county, cast a gloom over the entire community. He had been connected with the improvements made by the Kemble Coal and Iron Company from their inception. He was on the ground before the first stone was laid in thosemagnificent structures which will stand as monuments of his skill for many years, and superintended them to their com pletion and to their ultimate triumph. Well was it for the citizens of Bedford county Viet Norden become the pioneer to open up their vast mineral resources. With him there was an such "word as fail." His unparalleled in dustry, quiet demeanor, ability to grasp and overcome great obstacles made him the leader among the most energetic and skillful of his men and the admiration of all who knew him. No wonder then that his loss is keenly felt and that the feeling is universal that no one can be found to successfully fill his place. His loss is a heavy.one to Bedford county and the iron interests of this section. We deeply sympathize with those immediately interested in him, and drop our tear in behalf of the community which in him, loses one of its brightest jewels. Mr. Louder, who has been connected with the office, since the establishment of the works, and who understands them better than any other man connected with them, has been appointed temporary Superintendent, and we hope that he may be continued permanently, as he is a young man n orthy of every confidence and the man upon whom, we think, the man tles of the lamented Worden should fall. ANOTHER. JAGFITNINO ROD AND INSU RANCE SwISDLE.—Wc have repeatedly warned our friends in the country to beware of sharp ers an swindlers, who under any pretense whatever, seek to obtain the i notes, without first having delivered the full value of them. ff they give it to a consideration hereafter to be supplied or delivered. put it down as a swin- dle and deal with no strangers in that way. Elie latest case that has been biought to our notice is the operation of a man styling him self as an agent of the LeGirard Insurance CJM pony of Eric County, Pa." This man put up a lightning sod for apart of the consideration of a note of $151,65, and gave the following agreement for the remainder, being much the larger portion of the note. For the valtte received, I, the undersigned, agent of the U. S lightning rod company, agree to deliver unto A. Lovell a policy of insurance of Girard Electrical insurance company, of Girard, Erie cou..ty Pa. iu accordance with the conditions stipulated in application) for insurance this day taken by use, within thirty days from date of application, the said A.

SULLIVAN Of course, Mr. Sullivan has not appeand, al though the thirty days have long since expired, nor has any policy reached Mr. Lovell. Some of his neighbors are in the same perdicament, and are anxiously waiting for Mr. Sullivan's appearance. Mr. Lovell gives notice that he will not pay his note as there was no value received.—Williamsport Gazette and Bulletin. Our readers world do well to remember the name of the company, and keep a sharp look• out for Mr. D. S. Sullivan. A full line of Pen Knives and Scissors at Hew:►rts' Hardware Store. [Dec.2o,-3t. WINTERY.—The whistling wind tells us that winter, with its snows and sighs and sor rows is here. To some it brings only health and happiness, to others, hunger and hopeless ness ; to some, pleasures of the palate, to oth ers the pinchings of poverty ; to some, cheerfulness and comfort ; to others, the cries of craving children ; to some the witch ery of wealth, to others the wailings of want ; it will bring to some the highest designs of , which we are capable in this sphere. Let all whom God has blessed with a goodly store of this world's wealth, remember the poor during the coming winter. The man of the world and and the woman of fashion amid the exciting scenes of the social dance, will lose sight Of the widow and the orphan, but their cry tone the less ascend to Heaven, and it is incumbent upon us as believers in Him who bade us to care for the poor, that we should satisfy their wants. Whilst you arc pursuing the phan tom pleasure, forgetful there is pain or euff.w ing in this world, many a starving babe is vainly seeking nourishment from the empty breast, wherein beats a heart as warm in ma ternal love as ever the affection of heiress or queen. Think of these things, and while you lavish thousands in luxuriousness forget not to alleviate the pangs of penury.—Exchange. A magnificent China Sett, at Stewarts' Ittrdware Store, to be chanced ()Tat the Town Clock Fair. PAINTING AND WHITEWASIIING. — Th , buildings upon the rising ground on the north side, arc adding greatly to the fine appearance of our town. The view from the railway trains, and especially from the Broad Top, is beautiful and attractive. The beauty of that part of town will be greatly added to, bowev cr. when all the wooden houses are painted white. Speaking of paint, we may here ex press our gratification in view of the improv ed taste exhibited by our people in this mat ter. We are glad to see the dingy brown paints abandoned and pure white used instead. A stroll through West lluntingdon, where white paint is used almost exclusively, is re ally refreshing. Paint is a preservative, besides adding greatly to the appearance and value of a prop erty, and we would sugzest that special atten tion be given this Winter and Spring to the painting white, of all wooden houses, and the whitewashing of all stables, barns, outbuild ings and fances. We have a beautiful town ; let us all have a pride in adding to that beau ty. The cost and trouble is trifling. A beautiful Lamp, on exhibition at Stewarts' Hardware Store, to be voted for,at tbe Town Cock Fuir. RATHER A BIG UNDERTAKING.—Mor ris Wiernick, a lad aged fourteen years, a nephew of William and Joseph March, of this place, left Czenstochau, in Russian Poland, on the 26th day of October last, and arrived in New York the 22d day of December, alone. It will be remembered that some eight weeks ago, a vessel reached New York, bringing the horrifying intelligence, that on the passage out, some forty odd fatal cases of Cholera had oc cured on board, and a number subsequently occurred at Quarantine. Morris was a pas senger on this vessel, and escaped the terrible disease and after the expiration of the <guar autinc order he made his way to Huntingdon where the conductor set him off to find his friends. He is a bright boy, small for his age and plucky. Ho desgves a gold medal fur his fortitude. FFSTIVAL.—A Grand Festival, for the benefit of the M, E. Church, in M'Connells town, will be held in that place, on the Ist and 2d of January. The public are Weed to attend. Go to StewarS for Skates.

Railroad by the Iron Bridge at Burlington, and called the Buniniarog ROUTE. The main line of the Route running to Oma ha, connects wall the great Pacific Roads, and forms to-day the leading route to California. The Middle Branch, entering Nebraska at Plattsmouth, passes through Lincoln, the State Capital, and will this year be finished to Fort Kearney, formiag the shortest route across the Continent by over 100 miles. Another barer of the B. IL, diverging at Red Oak, falls iuto a line running down the Missouri through St. Joe to Kansas City, and all Kansas. Passengers by this route to Kan sas, see Illinois, Southern lowa, and Missouri, and, by a slight divergence, can see Nebraska also. Lovers of fine views should remember the Burlington Route, furits towns "high gleam ing from afar"—its tree-fringed streams—its ro,gh bluffs and quarries—its corn oceans stretching over the prairies further than eye can reach. . Land-buyers will be sure to remember it, for they have friends among the two thousand who have already bought farms from Geo. S. larris, the Laud Comissioner of the 11. & M. R. R. at Burlington, lowa, or among the four thousand home- steaders and pre-emptors who last year filed claims in the Lincoln land of fine, where "Uncle Sam is rich enough to give us all a farm."
