Somebody wants to know, if money is scarce, "where in the world do the women get the cash to purchase such fine dresses and so much back hair?" "Somebody" is eternally asking foolish questions. A woman may be of great assistance to her husband in business, by wearing a cheerful countenance. A man's perplexities and gloom iness are increased a hundred fold when his better half moves about with a continual scowl upon her brow. The Juniata Valley Odd Fellows' Mutual Life Insurance Company, of Huntingdon, has had another loss in the person of William W. Shuck, of Bedford. It pays its losses prompt ly. Every sound Odd Eellow, in the land, ought to have a policy in it. It only costs a trifle. Miss Eliza, daughter of Gen. John McComb, of Union township, on Saturday night of last week, was severely burned on the arm and hand by the explosion of a kerosene lamp. Her father had both his hands badly burned in the attempt to extinguish the flames. The parties are recovering. Gentlemen who think it smart to show how near they can drive across a railroad before a passing locomotive, may be interested in knowing in the Northern States, last year, that kind of smartness resulted in the death of 27 persons, the injuring of 14, the killing of GO horses and the smashing of 80 vehicles. A gentleman, with his family, stopped off of one of the trains, on the Central, the other day, who desired to visit some friends in West Huntingdon. lie could find no conveyance to take him to that interesting locality and he left in the next train, in disgust. Who will run a "buss ?" "The 'Globe' has the largest number of readers of any other paper published in the county." The above notice occupies a conspicious place in the Globe, and when we read it we were led to think that the editors are firm be lievers in the old saw, that "a lie well stuck to is as good as the truth," The JOURNAL is sues double the number of papers that the Globe does, and consequently has a greater number of readers, and is the beat advertis ing medium in Central Pennsylvania. "A Huntingdon mecrhant pays 15 cents apiece for cat skins, and quite a crop of that interesting night blooming Cercus, the tom cat, is being reaped. So says the Tyrone Herald. We wish somebody would offer a respectable price for dog skins. There might be an additional inducement to lessen the number that frequent our yard. The Huntingdon Presbytery, comprising Bair.

Now as TUE TIME.—The Spring has fairly opened, and in every quarter we find people busy fixing up about their yards and residences ; but in their labors to beautify the homes of the living they should not for get the graves of the dead. There are many of our readers, who have "friends departed," who never think of this, perhaps. Fix d pp the mounds that cover them, and erect over them a stone or monument. Col. Williams, at the corner of Fourth and Muffin streets, has on hand some of the most beautiful and elegant marble work that we have ever seen outside of the cities, and he is prepared to put it up at reasonable prices.

JUSTICE OF THE PEACE.—Persons who were elected to the office of Justice of the Peace, at the recent spring election, are re quired by law to give written notice to the Prothonotary, within thirty days, of their ac ceptance of said office. In this written notice it would be well for them to state whether or not they have been elected to fill a vacancy ; and if so, how that vacancy occurred—as this information is important in order to enable the Justices to secure their commissions.

THE ELECTION OF COUNTY SUPERIN TENDENTS OF COMMON SCIIOOLS.-On the first Tuesday of May next, conventions of school directors will assemble at the county seats of the several counties of this Commonwealth for the purpose of electing County Superinten dents of Common Schools for the ternrof three years, comnancing on the first Monday of Tune. At the same time there will be held, if the respective boards of directors so decide, in all cities and boroughs possessing 7,000 in habitants, special elections for the election of City and Borough Superintendents of Schools for the same length of term as that for which County Superintendents are to be elected. There are now serving in the State 81 County City and Borough Superintendents, to be in creased probably at the forthcoming election to 85 or more. The importance of the inter ests intrusted to these officers can scarcely be over-estimated. Pennsylvania will have 1,- 000,000 children to educate in her public schools during the next three years, and her annual expenditures for school purposes will most likely average full $10,000,000. Wheth er these children shall be well taught and trained or otherwise; whether this vast sum of money shall be judiciously or injudiciously expended will depend very much upon the men about to be chosen to fill the office of Superintendent, for it will be admitted by all who reflect upon the subject that as the Su perintendents so the teachers, as the teachers so the schools, and as the schools so in good measure the social and political conditions of the people. In view of these facts, we Seel it our duty to impress upon our readers, both school direc tors and citizens, the importance of securing the very best man that can be found willing to accept the office of Superintendent of Schools in our county. No other office probably has a relation so vital to the interests of the peo ple. Let the members of the convention lay aside all extraneous considerations and allow their choice to be determined by merit and merit alone. Pennsylvania has within the last few years placed herself proudly alongside of the fore most educational States. She is taxing her self for educational purposes as heavily as any other State of the Union. She is pouring out her money for the education of her children most generously, and it is the high duty of all who have to do with the official management of schools to see that every dollar thus con tributed brings back the greatest possible re turn of that for which it is given. Our peo ple are willing to pay for the best schools, and we must have them. Let none but men fully qualified be placed in the office of Superinten dent, and the rest is guaranteed.

Una ON THE POOH horse MOUNTAIN.—Last Sat urday, the Kemble Coal and Iron Company's mi ners, under the supervision of Mr. Gifford, after a month's prospecting, struck a two foot vein of fossil ore. It is estimated that at least from forty to fifty thousand tons of ore can be found on the county property, which, at 40cts per ton, the price the Kemble Co., are to pay fur it, will bring the county from fifteen to twenty thoniand dollars. We learn that the contract between the Pour house Commissioners and the Kemble Co., require the latter to commence mining operations imme diately after the ores "are discovered," and we are informed by Mr. Gifford that the company proposes going to work at once. The contract further stipulates that "the ore is to be paid for as it is taken out." and that 'the company is to take out at least live thousand tons or $2,000 worth per annum. • -- - - $100.5.5 50.28 $50.57 We clip the above item from the Bedford Inquirer, of last week. This is a very hand some thing for Bedford county and will help to pay for their new Poor House just put un der contract. We must confers that when we read the above item, we think we realized the sensations of a man who bad just "struck ile." We, fortunate once in our life, happen to own a mile and upwards of this seam. We made haste to see Mr. Gifford, the gentlemanly su perintendent of the Kemble Coal and Iron compainfs up= ot:tme, ao;gLL oalaucd of Bedford, and to ascertain whether the In quirer reported him correctly. He stated to us that the discovery was at least one-third better than reported. That the seam was two feet. without any interference, and that it could be worked down 225 feet. At least $60,000 or $70,000 worth of ore will be taken out, per mile, at a moderate royalty. The Kemble Coal and Iron Company, on the strength of this and other heavy discoveries of rich ore in the neighborhood, will very likely erect an additional furnace or two, at Riddlesburg, to work up that which they con trol. Bedford county is rapidly coming to the front as one of the heavest iron ore pro ducing counties in the State. We havn't iron ore on the brain by any means. Just received at D. S.

NEW RAILROAD PROJECTS.—A number of new Railroad projects are now under con sideration in our county. One is projected to Centreville in Cumberland Valley, about fif teen miles distant—it will run through valua ble deposits of ore through its whole length. Another is projected to connect with the Ber lin and Johnstown road by way of Deeter's gap or Barns hollow. Another is talked of to Johnstown by way of Pavia—still another is under consideration to McKee's gap to con nect with the Morrison Cove road. These are all for the western part of the county. In the eastern part we have the South Pennsylvania coming up the east side of Broad Top to con nect with the H. &B.T.R. R. We also hear of a proposal to extend the the Western Mary land railroad to connect with the B. ,k B. road at Mt. Dallas. All these routes run through valuable minerals, ore, coal, &c. While all are discussed, they will not be built. Some of them, however, surely will be. Which they shall be, will be largely influenced by the amount of aid obtained along the various routes in the way of subscriptions, releases, &c. —Bedford Inquirer.

Mr. Steele, solemnized matrimony yesterday evening, April 2nd, at St. John's church, between Lieutenant E. C. Pendleton, United States navy, and Miss Mary R. Saxton, daughter of Joseph R. Saxton, Esq., United States Coast Survey. The bride was most be comingly dressed in heavy white silk, trimmed with tulle flounces; tulle overskirt looped with orange blossoms, and pearl jewelry. She was accompanied to the alter by Miss M. E. Barret, of New York, as bridesmaid, who wore's white silk, trimmed with white muslin, and muslin overdress, with flounces trimmed with lace and looped with blue ribbons, low in the neck ; diamond jewelry. The groom, as well as his attenc:ing friend, Lieutenant Edges, both wore the full uniform of the United States navy. Owing to the serious illness of her father, the bride was given away by her uncle, Major Joseph 11.

The thing which is advertised must have intrinsic merit, or else large advertising will eventually do it more harm than good. If you have anything which you know to be good, advertise it thoroughly, and you will be sure to succeed ; if it is poor, don't praise it, for people will soon discover you are lying. Such is the policy of the BURLINGTON ROUTE, which runs to three great regions in the West : Ist, To Omaha, connecting with the great Pa cific Roads. 2d, To Lincoln, the capital of Ne braska, Platte, filled with R.

The roads are splendidly built, have the best bridges, finest cars, the Miller platform and coupler, and the safety air brake (to pre vent the loss of life that is every where else happening) ; Pullman's sleepers, Pullman din ing cars, large and powerful engines (to make quick time and good connections), and are in a word the best equipped roads in the West.

As a county paper it is un surpassed, to say the very best in its favor, and its many patrons in this end of the county hail its coming with a hearty welcome. In the number now before me, I see a communica tion dated Shade Gap, March 30th. A casual reader would suppose the writer signing himself "Argus," to bean individual thorough ly conversant with the affairs of our little botoagh, but he has shot wide off the mark, geographically, statistically, and worse than all, politically. He says that our spring elec tion amounted to sixteen Republican votes out of twenty-four votes that were polled. Either your correspondent was misinformed or he has got things a good deal mixed. We scarcely ever muster over forty voters, and when our spring election took place the old fogies, that compose the three-fourths of our voters felt soreheaded over borough matters, of which I shall speak of hereafter, and there were but sixteen votes polled all told, six Democrats and ten Republicans. The party before spoken of saw nothing but, smithshops, (a good sign of industry,) and stables (not so bad) that be found no fault with our wihiskey, for that is like his discription of Shade Gap, a little mixed We are mach obliged to our friend for his favorable notice of Milnwood Academy, founded as it is on the highest standard of educational principles, it certainly has and should enjoy the patronage of the best material in this county. Shade Gap was incorporated a borough just one year ago. Our first borough election took place in May last. At this election party spirit was pretty much laid to one side, and the body of the voters were composed of borough and anti-borough men. The borough men opened the polls in the morning, and there sat the election board all day with but very little to do, but behold the anti-borough men, what were they doing all this time? Why they were setting in solemn conclave at the town tavern, organizing what they called the Shade Gap Whiskey Ring. Just before the hour for closing the polls t3is same Whiskey Ring marched up and filled all the offices. Naturally enougli the year passed without any public improvements worth speaking of. At the borough elec tion last week matters took a different turn, and men, sound on the goose, were elected. Our town is bound to improve spite of the soreheaded fogies, who tried so bard to strangle our infant borough in the cradle at our last election by staying away from the polls. So much for the present status of Shade Gap politics. Our farmers have commenced plowing. A sad occurrence took place in the family of Benjamin Galbraith, a resident of Dublin township, on the 6th of October last, a daugh ter 18 years of age went to the barn for what purpose not known, her prolonged absence caused the family to institute a search, which resulted in the discovery of her dead body un derneath some hay, where she had fallen, it was supposed, in a lit, Cie young lady was subject to fits from her childhood. Shade Gap will be minus a licensed tavern, during the coming year at least. Worshippers at the shrine of Bacchus will have to resort elsewhere for their juice. More anon._ Now AND THEN, Shade Gap, April 6, 1872 EDITOR JOURNAL.—Dear Sir :—For the first time permit me to occupy a small space in your columns, in the way of giving you some thing of a description of this place, called Alex andria, situated about three miles from Petersburg, the nearest point to the railroad ; surrounded by a beautiful country. It con sists of ten or twelve stores of various classes, and quite a number of manufacturing estab lishments on asmall scale. I also noticed a new store opened by Hatfield at Walker. The store well stocked with all kinds of goods ne cessary for a place of this kind. The popula tion of this place is about 600, and a better set of inhabitants I never met. I have only one fault to find with some of them, quite a number of familes are without a news paper of any kind, which seems very strange to me in this enlightened age. I have traveled somewhat over this portion of the county among the farming class and have noticed the Jorasn, generally lying on the farmers table. which speaks well for them. This place, also consists of three churches, one school house, having three schools, and one hotel called the Walker House, kept by J. M. Piper, who well knows how to run a hotel; the office and bar-room are kept neat and clean, no loafers, loungers or drunkards are permitted on the premises, as you usually see in country towns of this size. The landlady, Mrs. J. M. Piper well knows how to conduct her part of the house ; Lilo takila ;a well fore iali nd ; the remmia aro kept neat and clean with soft and clean beds for the weary traveler, and he who stops here once will come again. But I must stop as I have already intruded to much upon your space and time. Promis ing to be more brief in the future I remain respactfuly yours. A TILAVELEII.

To persons knowing this locality it is not necessary to give any description of Roaring Spring, nor to speak of its business facilities and social advan tages. To those not acquainted, it may be proper to state that this town is situated near the North ern outlet of Morrison's Cove, at a point where the trade of that great Valley centres, and that the Morrison's Cove Railroad passes through it. It is in the midst of one of the best Iron Producing Diedriete in the State, possesses water power un surpassed, and offers facilities for Manufacturing purposes and other business, that are rarely met. The beauty of the scenery and surroundings is re marked by all. Persons desiring healthful and beautiful private or Summer Reticle.e, would do well to examine this point.

CASIT RATES CHARTER OAK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY. ASSETS Isaacs policies of Life Insurance on all the or dinary plans at lower rate. than other mutual companies and pays annual dividends increasing yearly. This plan called DEPOSIT INSURANCE, lately introduced by this company, is superior to any shortterm endowment or Tontine plan, as it fixes a large surrender value for the policy at the end of any of its current years. ALEXANDER ELLIOTT. Agent. Huntingdon. Pa., Feb. 21.1 572-3 in. WARNING MANY CITIZENS of this county who, had been persuaded to buy other kinds of Sewing Machines, which seemed at first to work well on a tolerable range of work, have expressed to me their regrets that the genuine original Elias Howe Sewing Ma chine—the best in the world—had not been brought to their notice before purchasing. And judging from the number of offers I have, to trade Howe machines for all other kinds, I estimate that the people of this county have lost more thin $20,000 by failing to get, at the trot, the genuine Howe Machine. It is made on sound mechanical prin ciples, avoids rickety cog-wheels, and is so con structed as to have perfect control by adjustment, and provision made to restore lost motion when it wears, thereby securing extraordinary durability, and adaptation to the greatest range of work. Now -. as my traveling agents may nut be able to visit every person in time, and as many inferior ma chines of different kinds are still being urged on the public, I hereby GIVE NOTICE, that before you spend your time or money on any other ma chine, the safest plan is, either to write to me di rect, or inquire of agents for the famous Elias Howe, machine, from Brown's Carpet Store, Hun tingdon, Pa., and take no agents word for it, that the machine is genuine, unless it has the medal lion at the head of this article, imbedded in the bed plate of every machine.
