Our Prothonotary nose all about foot-ball New buildings aro looming up on every hand. Everything that can hold fruit is loaded down. A steam Laundry is very much needed in this place. A new side-track is being put in in West Huntingdon, A pic-nic would be a real pleasure. Who will get one up ? In the West End '•gooses" go "squander ing round" loose. hrioldo_rers are pushing up the Walls of the new depot. The masons are at work on the extension to the Shoe Factory. Dr. Orlady, of Petersliurg, is completing a very handsome office. Treasurer Kenyon is swinging around the circle raising the wind. . Cherries have b4n selling at ten cents a quart. They are very fine. Quite a number of canal boats are loading and unloading at our wharves. The cut worms are not only "cutting up mullein," but all the cabbage plants. In M'Connellsburg they have a chap who pronounces the word belle in two syllables. We notice the Huntingdon Infantry para ding about the streets occasionally. It is very Light. A horn, three mules, a long rope and a lazy boat are hourly scenes on the "raging canawl." Why don't the ministers hand in notices of the deaths of persons belonging to their con - Rev. Plannett and Mr. C. Long strung eighty sun fish, in a couple of hours, on last Wednesday. Corbin's is a very convenient place to drop in, these warm days, and get a refreshing ice cream. Try it on. Henry Davis, division boss on the Central, is erecting a very neat and comfortable resi dence in Petersburg. Father Brown, of Bedford, was in town last week assisting Father Murphy. His health is very much improved. The new school year began on the first in stant, and the new directors have entered upon the duties of their offices. An Allopathist and Homcepathist were seen walking the street together the other day. What is this world coming to? We have four lots, for sale, on Mifflin street, between tenth and eleventh, in West Huntingdon, at very reasonable prices. The locust brigade has been ordered to the front, and their forces now hold the woods in every di,ocUon. Tliair name is In some portions of the country when they see a man wearing a silk stove pipe hat, they take him to be a "squire or something!" A small son of Hrs. Westbrook, of the Eureka Ice Cream Garden, fell down stairs on Tuesday of last week and broke his arm. What is the difference between the entrance to a barn and a loafer in aprintin,g office ? One is a barn door and the other is a darn bore. Four persons have been buried, in this place, within a fortnight, whose deaths were caused by accidents occurring on the rail roads. On last Tuesday, Michael Moore, charged with the murder of his wife in March last, was convicted, at Ebensburg, of "Murder in the first degree." A mother, south of Hill street, is obliged to wash a whole regiment of youngsters, every evening, to enable her to recognize her own numerous progeny We have a few poor onions in our garden that we cannot help shedding tears over whenever the opportunity is afforded. They are little but strong. John Saxton, Esq., editor of the Urbana (0.) Citizen and Gazette, dropped in to see us on Friday last. He reports Greeley stock be low par in the Buckeye State. An old lady says that drinking tar-water will make a person "as fat as a fool.' We recommend it to the editor of the Monitor. It is not to be taken in drops, though. Every man, woman and baby, in the dis trict, is under obligations to Mr. Speer for a copy of his speech on the tariff. He is only anxious about the baby's "Paps," not the babies. The roof of an old house on Allegheny street took fire from a spark from a passing locomotive, on Tuesday afternoon of last week, but the fire was checked before much damage was done. "Good looking Lindsay" is getting jealous lest we may get too many "busses." Never mind, friend, whenever tiny are offered that we may feel disposed to forego we will recom mend you. ♦ brakeman on the Central had his head considerably cut, on Saturday morning last, by coming in contact with a bridge in the neighborhood of Jackstown, a few miles east of this place. J. C. Walker, postmaster at Petersburg, has purchased 3} acres of ground, in front of the present railroad station, for $750, where he intends erecting a commodious ware-honse• It is a splendid site. The Monitor is out of humor because no Democrat could be found to take down the flag streaming from the steeple of the Presby terian church. No Democrat felt like sacrifi cing himself for the good of the cause. On last Tuesday, the 11th, the third floor of B. F. Isett's grist-mill, at Spruce Creek, gare way, under the weight of about 1000 bushels of corn. The second floor stood the precipi. tate shock and no further damage was done. We sometimes think the engineers on the Central get up a screaming match—the up the road fellows against the down the road fel lows. As far as heard from the down the road fellows, with the echo thrown in, .are ahead. A scarcely fledged robin looked into our place, the other day, but finding we had no use for him he left. On inquiry we learned that ha was a lineal decendant of the famous bird celebrated in nursery rhymes. He didn't know however, "Who killed Cock Robin?" The employees of the Pennsylvania railroad, a short time ago, removed a span of the Sha ver's Creek bridge, at Petersburg, introduced a new wrought iron span and doubled up the old span, so as to make one span out of two, without delaying a single train. This is pretty hard to beat. Some wag has posted a lot of old show bills through the town advertising a circus for this place on 31 onday next,for the purpose,no doubt, of fooling country people to town. As no ad vertisement of the show appears in the papers we take it for granted that the whole thing is a sell. Se careful. NEWS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.- Martinsburg has Measles. Johnstown double baby is dead. The hotels at Bedford Springs opened on Monday the 10th inst. Tyrone has increased her school term from seven to nine months. Johnstown will soon have au Episcopal church worth $15,000. The members of the Martinsburg Church of God arc erecting a parsonage. Lewistown is about building a new school house which will cost $25,000. The West Juniata District Temperance Con vention will meet in Altoona on the 20th of August. After July Ist the post office at Lewistown will be constituted a second-class office—sal ary $2,000. The mail east on the S. & L. Railroad leaves Lewistown in the 5 p. m. train, instead of the 11 a. m as heretofore. Tyrone boys, in defiance of the law for such cases made and provided, continue to play ball on the public streets. A railroad from Hagerstown to Waynes boro, is talked of—an extension of the Was hington county branch read. A. A. Anderson, of Tyrone, while recently engaged in hauling stone, was struck on the head by a large boulder and severely injured. The foundation for two new blast furnaces for the the Cambria Iron Co., has been com menced on the grounds near the old "first lock." The Centre Baptist Sabbath School Associ ation will hold its annual meeting, at the Bap tist Church, in Hollidaysburg, on 18th and 19th inst. A. F. Hostetter, principal of the Altoona high school, was recently presented with an elegant copy of Byron's poetical works, by his admiring pupils. A boss on the Williamsburg railroadbad his arm badly hurt recently,by getting in too close proximity to where a workman was raising his pick with force. A little Altoona girl named Susie Coates, while playing on the side-walk, Sunday two weeks ago, fell and broke her leftarm between the wrist and elbow. Wm. Ayers, an emyloyee on the Bloomfield rail road, bad six cf his ribs broken, by being clouts mule was bitched. An old lady named Polly Maguire, a cripple, residing at Loretto, received a fall by the break ing of one of her crutches, last week, and fractured both of her arms. The Mountain Star, a juvenile base ball club, of Hollidaysburg, recently played the Students' nine of Tipton Seminary, and beat them by a score of 34 to 24. A large pile of wood, says the Lewistown Gazette, owned by the Pa. R. R. Co., burned on Tuesday evening a week, this side of the first railroad bridge. Some say sixty cords. The wages of miners employed by the Cam bria Iron Company have been arranged on a sliding scale, with the price of iron as a basis. If iron advances one dollar per ton the wages of the miner will advance nine tenths of a cent on a tou of coal. It is reported says the Blade, in credible circles, that the monied men in Tyrone have a gigantic scheme in contemplation for build ing manufacturies of different kinds. We have not crlatishied the secret ; but 515 them good speed in the enterprise. Tuesday of last week two brothers, Patrick and William Daugherty,employed in Bradley's bank at Tunnel Hill, were fatally injured by falling slate. William was dead when taken out of the bank, and Patrick died soon after. They were both single men. Jesse Kauffman, traveling for N. Frank & Son, of Lewistown, says the Gazelle, is miss ing, having left his merchandise wagon at Newton Hamilton, and being heard from at Huntingdon, where all trace of him thus far has been lost. His brother is searching for him. John P. Hoover sold his farm in North Woodbury township, on Friday, May 31st, to the Cambria Iron Company for $175 per acre. Also Frederick Hoover, at the same time sold his farm to the same Co., for $165 per acre. We remember when these farms were not worth $25 an acre. Some Bellefonte boys recently walked to Lock llaven-35 miles—to see Barnum's show. Twenty five cents apiece was the extent of their financial resources, and Saturday night they went supperless to a board pile bed. On Monday morning they met friends who provi ded for them. Track laying is progressing finely on the western end on the Bedford and Bridgeport railroad, and trains are now running regularly to Buffalo Mills, ten miles west of Bedford. It is proposed to have an excursion over the road to Brideport, on the P. & C. R. It., on the Fourth of July. The Cambria county Democracy have nom inated the following ticket : Asscmnly, John Hannan ; Register and Recorder, Jas. Id. Sing er ; Commissioner, Anthony Anna ; Poor Di rector, John Clotch ; Auditor,PeterDougher ty, H. A. McPike, Esq., of the Freeman, was chosen delegate to the State Convention of 1873. The body of a dead child was found, on Monday of week before last, under the floor in the garret of the house of William Ray, on the corner of Seventh avenue and Fourteenth street, Altoona. The body was much decayed and was supposed to have been placed there seven months ago, by a young girl whole sus pected as the mother. The steam tunnel drill is to be used at once in driving the new tunnel at Tatesville, Bed ford county, by the Kemble Coal & Iron Com pany. One hundred feet p^r month, in the haAlest rock, can be taken out by this process, and as soon as the Tatesville tunnel is com pleted, it is proposed to resume work on the tunnel near Bloody Run. The Juniata County Sabbath School Asso ciation met in Perrysville, on the 29th ult., and continued its sessions through that, and the day following. The number of delegates present was something over a hundred, repre senting some thirty odd schools—a larger num ber than bad ever been present before. The Railroad Engineers completed their la bors on the Lewisburg, Centre & Tyrone R. R., between Pennsylvania Furnace and Tyrone, on Wednesday, says the herald. All the pro posals arc in possession of President Geo. F. Miller, and at the next meeting of the Board of Directors in Philadelphia, the lettings will be awarded. An insane old lady, aged about 60 years, named Barbara Cecelia Tropp, was struck by the Philadelphia Express, east, on Friday evening last, a short distance below Cambria borough, and instantly killed. She had been traveling from point to point between Phila ladelphia and Pittsburg for several years past, and subsisted altogether on charity. Hon. R. J. Loyd tried to quell a riotous dis turbance at Ebensburg, on Saturday night last. One of the parties engaged in the quarrel struck his Honor a severe blow in the mouth, and it is likely that the obstreperorou s chap will have the pleasure of enjoying a resi dence in one of the rooms of the new jail until his quarrelsome disposition is permitted to subside. The prospects, says the Cove Echo, of a wheat crop about New Enterprise, and through out South Woodbury, is not at all flattering. Along Clover Creek, and in the vicinity of Woodbury it is also poor. From Woodbury to Martinsburg we see an occasional field of wheat that promises fair. The prospects for an oats crop in North, Middle and South Wood bury townships are good. To-day, says the Republican, June 6th, 1872 , Mrs. Magdalene Shoemaker, of McConnlells burg, is one hundred years old and is still in the enjoyment of good health, good active mind, and good appetite ; but almost blind. Her present health indicates that she may live at least a few years longer, and possibly ten of them. Mrs. Shoemaker was born in Ger many, near Strasburg, June 6th, 1872. The Republican Convention of Cambria county have placed the fo.lowing ticket in ' nomination : Assembly, Samuel Henry, Esq., Register and Recorder, Samuel A. Kephart ; Commissioner, George Myers ; Poor Director, David Dilsert ; Auditor, John S. Buchanan. Hon. A. A. Barker was declared the choice for Congress, with power to choose his own con ferees ; and Jacob M. Campbell for delegates to the Constitutional Convention, with like power. On Saturday, says the Sentinel, the Ist inst., as Mr. Samuel McManama and daughter, of Mifflin county, were riding in one horse spring wagon, the horse became frightened when in the vicinity of Mount Rock Mills, and ran . away. The wagon and its occupants were thrown down an enbaukment of twenty feet. Mr. McMcnama had his skull fractured and one leg broken at the thigh. His daughter escaped with slight injury. The wagon was demolished. The corner stone of Monnt Zion Reformed Church, at Mann's choice, Bedford county, was laid amid suitable solemnities on Saturday, June Ist, 1872. The sermon for the occasion was preached by Rev. Wm. M. Deatrick, of Friend's Cove, Rev. A. C. gray, of St. Claire ville, and Rev. E. N. Kremer, of Bedford, were also present to assist the pastor Rev. N. H. Skyles, in the solemn services. Tho Church is to be frame, and to be fifty feet in length and thirty-two feet in width. On Sunday morning last, as a gentleman named Woods, says the Standard, living in Pittsburg, was enjoying a nap in a sleeping car, between Altoona and the latter place, a pick-pocket entered his berth and was caught in the act of putting his hand in Mr. Woods' pocket. The thief was arrested by Mr. Woods and the conductor and conveyed to Altoona, when, after a hearing at the Mayor'soffice and in default of bail, he was sent over to "Fort Huff" the next morning, where he will await The Bedford County Convention met at one o'clock on Tuesday, the 11th inst. The Con vention proceeded to nominate a ticket, with the following result Congress, Hon. John Cessna ; State Senator, G. S. Mullin ; Dele gate to Constitutional Convention, S. L. Rus sell ; Assembly, M. A. Points; Prothonotary, E. M. Alsip ; Register and Recorder, James Cleaver ; Sheriff, H. C. Lashley ; Commis sioner, Jos. Riddle; Poor House Director, Gab riel Hull ; Auditor, Martin S. Bortz ; Coroner, Dr. E. J. Miller. Car Inspector Foster, of East Conemaugh, met with a terrible accident at that place on Thursday morning last, says the Echo. He had just stepped out of the swith-man's box, which stands close to the railroad track, and not noticing an engine which was backing down, he was struck by it and thrown to the ground. Unfortunately one of his legs lay upon the track, and before he could withdraw it the engine passed over it crushing the limb in such a manner as to necessitate amputation below the knee. Jacob Houser, of Lewistown, attached to the gravel train on the Sunbury & Lewistown Railroad, was so badly injured at Selinsgrove on Friday last, by the train backing over him, that he died shortly afterwards. The caboose, it appears, had become detached from the train, and being on a down grade those on the last car attempted to jump on the caboose to brake it, Houser being last, but the distance being too great he fell on the track, and before he could get out of the way the cars passed over both legs and one arm. On Thursday last, says the Cove Echo of the Bth inst., as Mrs. Anderson and another lady, with horse and buggy, were on their way to Newry, they met with rather a serious acci dent. As they approached the Railroad cross ing at Roaring Springs, the gravel train which by some means had been delayed, unexpected ly passed by. The horso became frightened, throwing Mrs. Anderson out and one of the buggy wheels over her. We are informed that Mrs. Anderson sustained no very serious in jury, and that after recovering from the fright drove home. The burning of a bridge near Williamsport, on the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad, on Fri day last, says the Lewistown Gazette, brought the Sunbury and Lewistown Railroad to a rather unhooked for use—the Empire Line from New York running its trains from Sun bury to Le'w istown, thence to Tyrone, and from there to Lock Haven, thus getting on the Phil adelphia and Erie again. This was a round about way, but as the cars from New York contained many perishable articles, it was in the end a saving. Many other freight trains are passing over this route. Last Monday the annual meeting of the Dunkers or German Baptists commenced at Goodville Church, Fayette township, says the Juniata Sentinfl, of the sth inst. During the afternoon three persons were immersed. In the evening the Lord's Supper was celebrated. The membership of this church in this county is large. The following preachers from other counties were in attendance : Rev. Peter Meyers, Mifflin county ; Rev. Graybill Meyers, Huntingdon county Rev. Daniel Good, Frank lin county ; Rev. John Garver, Huntingdon county ; Rev. M. Harnish, Perry county. A three horse team belonging to J. J. Barn dollar, Esq., of Bloody Run, was frightened on Friday, says the Press, at the station, and ran to the foot of the hill, on Spring street, with about forty five hundred weight of lumber, be fore they were stopped. The driver bad stop ped back of the station, to allow the morning mail train to pass before commencing to un load, and in an instant the leader wheeled around and the team started for the crossing. The train was quite close, and the driver be ing thrown on the track had barely time to get off, receiving some severe bruises. The wagon was badly demolished, but the horses received no injuries. An indhstrioUs Spruce Creek tnechaniO came into . Sinking Valley, on Friday last, says the Tyrone Herald, to drive home a new purchase in the shape of a pig. He left Scalp Level at 3p. m., on Friday. At 8 o'clock on Tuesday last he was reported being a little West of Newry, and appeared to be working gradually around toward Ebensburg. He seemed anx ious to hear from his family. When last seen he was engaged in an energetic dispute with the pig, the latter insisting on a new "line of direction," which would take the couple some where in the neighborhood of Cort-ing, N. Y. The Somerset Herald, of the sth inst., con tains the following : In the terrible conflaga. tion of the 9th of Slay, in which the greater portion of the town was destroyed, the Herald was one of the heaviest losers. The accumu lations of twenty years labor were destroyed in as many minutes. The office, though one of the last buildings to take fire, went like a flash. Our hands, at the cry of fire. having rushed down street, became so engaged in In sisting their fellow sufferers, that the office was deserted and burned to the ground with out an effort being made to save anything. Our account books are all that are left. In the ruins can be seen the remains of our ele gant steam power press, a quarter medium jobber, a beautiful little engine, and pieces of that faithful and true old friend, the Washing ton hand press, that for eighteen years did its work nobly and well. Of our paper cutter, our dry press, two large imposing stones, all our handsome stands, desks and furniture, a large lot of printing paper and stationery, files of the Herald for more than twenty years that no moneg could buy, nothing can be seen• Sixteen hundred pounds of type lay under several inches of dirt and sand a shadeless mass. Our loss is heavy, and in some instances is irreparable, but we have not lost heart, and have an abiding faith in the generosity .d liberality of our subscribers. It was oar boast, perhaps that was wicked, before the fire that we had one of the best printing offices in Western Pennsylvania, out side of the cities, and not exceeding fifteen minutes before the fire, we received by the af ternoon's mail a receipt for the last dollar we owed on the printing establishment. A. CO-(PERATIVE LAIINDRY.—So much difficulty is experienced in getting help to do housework, that the ladies universally dread "washing-day," and we are not surprised at it as it is really a dreadful day. An old song has something like this : "Of all the days throughout the week the worst is washing day." We would suggest a co-operative Laundry, it could be started for a very little money. The following article from the Amer icas Agriculturist states the conveniences much better than we can. Won't somebody take hold of it and put the thing in motion? "Is it not about time to banish washing—the sloppy, steaming work of washing day from our homes, and make a public affair of it? A friend writes me, 'When Sunday night comes, I always begin to dread the morrow's washing, for our washings are always large, and, do the best I can, I invariably get very tired. A public laundry would be a greht blessing.' I think she means a co-operative laundry, for she would hardly be wil ling to pay for her large washings the prices at most public laundries, that are not es-operative— at the rate of $l, or $1.25 per dozen. The papers have lately been taking notice of some statistics published by the Oneida Community, with refer ence to their washings. A New Haven paper says, 'They find that the week's washing for two hun dred and thirty-seven persons costs twenty-nine cents a bead. As the average number of pieces washed for each member is eighteen, including heavy articles, this is astonishingly cheap. Why should not the horrors of washing day in families be abolished by a system of intelligent co-opera tion? Comfort, health, and cleanliness would all be promoted by it, and a large amount of money and labor saved." 'The washing apparatus of that Community is on the largest and best scale of any in this coun try. The hard work is done by steam. The re: volving wringers alone cost $250, and the whole expense of the brick building for the laundry, and of the machinery for washing, wringing, drying and ironing was $6.002. In cities there could be kturd.eanteakegt.ssmirad44.amidies.4 , aumbjau, ges there might be such a co-operation as would materially lesson the labors and expenses of family washing, -r without so great an outlay of money. The expenses of the huildingand apparatus might be divided into shares and each member of the association could own one or more. The appa ratus for doing a family washing comfortably at home is seldom less than :,325, including machines for washing and wringing. If fifty families should each put in this sum. it would raise a capital of $1,230. What could be done with this sum in the way of establishing a village laundry? The wash ing might bo done at a fixed rate—say seventy-five cents a dozen. After paying the current expenses for soap, fuel, labor, etc., there would remain a surplus of funds (if the concern was properly managed), to be divided at stated periods among the members. In this way the members of the co-oporative laundry association, though paying a nominal price of seventy-five cents a dozen for washing and ironing, would really get the work done for considerably less." A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.—A Conduc tor and Fireman Killed.—A terrible accident oc curred on the Broad Top Railroad, on Thursday evening last, about half-past eight o'clock, under the following circumstances, viz: The Accommoda tion Train bound for Bedford, stopped at a water station about two miles above Hopewell, an unusu al occurrence, and while taking in water the con ductor. John P. Davis. went forward and got on the engine, the engineer pulled out and had hardly got under headway when the engine, owing to an imperfect joint, jumped the track and went over an embankment of several feet to the margin of the river, followed by a boa car loaded with corn. The engine, it is supposed, turned over several times. When the engineer, Mr. A.P. Decker, who had been severely stunned, recovered his presence of mind, he found that his fireman, Jesse B. Deck er, had been killed outright. His skull was crush ed and one arm entirely torn off. The conductor, Mr. Davis, had his right arm broken in two places, and his left arm dislocated at the shoulder, and other internal injuries. He lived until one o'clock on Friday morning. He suffered very severely but endured it with heroic stoicism until a few mements before death relieved him he became insen sible. Ile had only been running on the train but a few months, and during this short period he had made a host of friends. He was loved and res peeled by every body who knew him and his un timely loss will be sincerely mourned by many who only knew him as a friend and amiable gen tleman. Young Decker was also loved and es teemed by all his acquiantances. The universal testimony is that he was a most excellent young man. It is sad to have to record the death of two such excellent young men, cut off without a mo ments warning, when they were just budding into manhood and in the midst of the most brilliant prospects. But such is life. The engineer escaped miraculously, without scarcely any injury. He says when he recovered his senses he was between the dead and dying. His escape is truly a miricle. The baggage car was thrown off the track but not severely injured. A Mr. Longenecker, of Petersburg, was on hoard, and jumped off at the first alarm, and was considerably bruised. The passenger car remained on the track and no one in it was hurt. A FRIGHTFUL RUNAWAY.—As Sam uel Isett, of Etna Furnace, was descending the road running parallel with the railroad into Spruce Creek, in his family carriage, on last Tuesday morning,the 11th inst., the horse became frightened and dashed along the rail way at a frightful speed. A lady in the car riage leaped from it and escaped, but one of Mr. Isett's feet was caught in some unaccoun table manner, and held him fast so that he was obliged to await results. The Through Pas senger train West, tore off a wheel of the car riage and the latter was pushed aside and Mr. Isett escaped with very little injury. A boy was driving at the the time who was unable to manage the horse. The Spruce Creek crossing is one of the worst on the road. HUNTINGDON AND BROAD TOP RAIL- RoAD—Report of Coal Shipped: TONS For the week ending June 18, 1872 6,998 Same date last year 6,171 Increase for week Decrease for week Shipped for the year 1872 Same date last year Decrease for year 1872 NEWS FEOM TFIE "LOWER END."— Dear Journal:—We wish to inform your read ers tbat we had in our midst, a few days ago, quite an important and destinguished lot of railroad men. Among them were Mr. Ingham, President of the E. B. T. R. R. & C. Co., who, by the by, has activeness stamped on his fore head, Mr. Markle, well known among the coal merchants and identified with the iron inter est, Messrs. Edward and Percival Roberts, of Phila., and Dr. Lewis Royer, of Montgomery county. They came over the route to inspect the different surveys, etc., of the company, before the road is let. We believe they found every thing in as good condition as expected ; and think they left us satisfied as to the mineral resources, kc., of the "lower end." We are much pleased that these gentlemen have paid us a visit. Mr. Markle is a keen, shrewd, practical railroad man, of the wide-awake, progressive order, and we are confident that he will do all he can to perpetuate and in crease the friendly feelings between the com pany and this route. They left the Penna. railroad at Mt. Union, thence via Orbisonia to- Rock Hill Furnace, thence via Burnt Cabins and Scottsville to Broad Top City. The trip occupied them about a week. Mr. Wingate, Chief Engineer of the road, is now engaged near Saltillo. Several cases of diptheria are reported in Clay township, and one or two very bad cases of quinsey in Shirley township. 'Tis rumored Orbisonia is to have a grand demonstration on the Fourth of July by the different military companies, societies, kc. Am unable to report programme, but may hear more concerning it shortly. Rock Hill Furnace will blow in, with very favorable prospects of a good blast, about the 20th. Dolly Wardens are not quite so popular here as in your town. _ . Grain appears very scarce and is very high; causing an almost universal complaint of hard times from all quarters. • Juie 15, 1872 A BANK CAVES IN—TWO MEN KILL ED.—On Tuesday, the 11th inst., our neigh bortood was shocked by the report that two men named respectively John Kearney and Christ. Harry, of this place, employed on the railroad, had been crushed by the caving in of a bank at a point about one mile east of Petersburg, where they were employed exca vating for a third track. The accident occur red about 10 o'clock, A. M. If we have been correctly informed, the accident can be attri buted principally to recklessness. The bank gave evidence of giving way and yet they continued to work beneath it. Harry was terribly crushed and died at one o'clock, P. It., before be reached home. He leaves a wife and three children in indigent circumstances to mourn his untimely fate. We are informed that they are very very poor. We hope that our people will extend the hand of charity promptly and relieve their wants. Kearney was not so severely crushed as Harry and he lived until five o'clock in the evening. He was a single man of German nativity, and has no relatives in this country with the exception of a brother whose whereabouts are not known. Both were buried on Wednesday afternoon. There appears to be a fearful number of fatal accidents along the line of the road. Three persons have been buried here in the last ten days, and we know of at least three or four others. Most of these accidents are the milt of carelessness or intemperance and they should warn others of their danger but they convey their lesson, apparently, only for a day. lOWA, NEBRASKA, KANSAS, CALlFOR siA.—Advertising alone does not produce suc cess. The thing which is advertised must have intrinsic merit, or else large advertising will eventually do it more harm than good. If yon 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 ROOTS, which runs to three great regions in the West : Ist, To Omaha, connecting with the great P acific Roads. d, To Lincoln,the capital of Ne braska, Platte, filled with R. R. lands and home steads. 3d, To St. Joseph, Kansas City and all Kansas points. 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. So that if you desire to go safely, surely, q...ickly and comfortably to any point in Southern lowa, Nebraska, Kansas, or on the Pacific Roads, be sure that you go "By Way of Burlington." All who wish particular information, and a large map, showing correctly the Great West, and all its railroad connections, can obtain them, and any other knowledge, y addressing General Passenger Agent, B. & Mo. R. R. R., Burlington, lowa. How IT COMES.—Many persons sup pose that a large paper, with three times the reading matter contained in the old Journal and American, costs no more to publish it than the latter, because the subscription price re mains the same. This is a mistake. It costs at least one-half more, and this extra cost must be made up on advertising, but thep rites for advertising arc no higher, and there is but little, if any more, advertising, conse quently we must charge for many things that were formerly published gratuitously. Will politicians and those who want to make money out of politics or secure political honors, re member this when we present our bills for personal advertising? The man who wants to make money out of politics has as much right to pay the printer as the man who wants to make money out of dry-goods, grocer ies, &c. tf. JUNIATA VALLEY CAMP MEETING.— The Juniata Valley Camp Meeting Association will hold their first annual Camp Meeting on their grounds, near Newton Hamilton, commencing on the oth day of August and continuing fora period of ten days. Two hundred tents will be erected at once and every convenience will bo rendered those who will favor the project with their patronage. A circular will be issued stating all necessary in formation in regard to rent of tents and board. This project is an enterprise of the Juniata Valley and as such it appeals to those who aro in sympa thy with it in this locality. We hope our peopla will give it their countenance and a helping hand. It is certainly a very worthy project. CAsTORIA is a scientific vegetable prep aration ; a perfect substitue for and more ef fective than Castor Oil, and is pleasant to take. It cleanses the system in a most remarkable manner; does not distress or gripe, but ope rates when all other remedies have failed. It is certain to supersede Pills, Castor Oil, Nar cotic Syrups and all other purgative and ex citing medicines. The Castoria contains neith er Minerals, Morphine nor Alcohol. By its emolient, soothing effect, it assimilates the food and produces natural sleep particularly adapting it to crying and teething children. It cures Stomach Ache, Wind Colic, Consti pation, Flatulency, Croup and kills Worms. Make your Druggist send for it; he will always keep it, as every family must have it. It costs but fifty cents a bottle. [junes--4t. 1876. FOURTH OF JULY. 1872. CASTILIAN GARDEN ! BALLOON ASCENSION ! GRAND DISPLAY OF FIRE WORKS !

It is devoted to an ex position of all those agencies so vitally rela ted to Health and to the treatment of Disease, such as Air, Light, Temperature, Diet, Cloth ing, Bathing, Exercise, Sleep, Electricity, and all normal agents and hygienic materials. It is an independent journal, published in the interests of the people, which is certainly a strong commendation. This first number contains many articles of general interest. The senses of sight, hearing, taste, smell, etc., are illustrated and explained. The cause and cure of backache; the proper position on Horse back; Water treatment of Fevers; Sprains and Bruises; Pneumonia; Clergy. men's Sore Throat; Chronic Catarrh ; How to Sleep, etc. The department of Talks with Correspondents contains valuable information.

The Christian Union.—An Unsectarian In dependent Journal, devoted to Religion, Mor als, News, Literature, Music, Science, Art, Agriculture, Trade, Finance, ,etc., etc. (24 Pages Large Quarto.) And containing House hold Stories, Choice Poems, Tales for the children, etc, embracing Contributions from well-known and eminent writers, Henry Ward Beecher, Editor. The Christian Union is the only Religious journal for which Mr. Beecher writes, or to which he in any way contributes. His characteristic articles of all kinds, and the only complete and authorized verbatim reports by Mr. T. J. Ellenwood, of his weekly " , Lecture Room Talks," in the Friday Eve ning Prayer meeting of Plymouth Churcn, and the characteristic *Star Papers,* are attract ive features of the paper, besides his power ful editorials, and occasional literary reviews. In the management and editorial conduct of the paper Mr. Beecher is assisted by an able staff of skillful and experienced journalists ; while the the contributors embrace well-known and eminent writers from every evangelical denomination. This is therefore, a paper for all christian families everywhere, being pub lished in the interest of the whole body of Christ's followers. It seeks to interpret the Bible rather as a rule of life than as a Book of doctrines. It is already the most widely quoted, throughout the whole country; its form 24 pages large quarto, pasted and trim med, is so convenient for reading, binding, and preservation, that it has in this alone a special merit not possessed by the large "blanket sheets ;" while its literary attrac tions are not surpassed by any. On January 1, 1872, it was enlarged to twenty four pages, and will be made, in various ways, the most attractive weekly published. With the paper are given away to every annual subscriber to the Christian Union at $3.00, or, mounted, sized, and varnished, ready for framing (the former most advanta geous to the Subscriber,) at $3.25, two Charming and Popular Works of Art, "Wide Awake" and "Fast Asleep," an exquisite pair of French Oil Chromos. The subjects are life size, and cannot fail to please all who love art or children. And this, notwithstanding the fact that the regular market price of these beautiful pictures is ($10) ten dollars, at which price thousands of them havebeensold, and still are selling, in the picture stores—an unerring proof of their popularity ; for they are not a pair of unpopular pictures, publish ed at $lO end afterwards bought up cheap be cause they didn't sell originally, but the reg ular demand for them at $lO is still active as it always has been. _These pretty Chromos . . had for nothing by subscribing to the Chris tian Union for one year. They are no com mon colored prints, but careful copies after paintings by Mrs. 8. Anderson, an eminent English artist; printed in oil colors from fif teen stones, executed by Jehenne, of Pat is, and for their size (10ix12/t), are equal to any chromos ever issued. Prof. S. M. Smeigh,of Tyrone, will canvass the principal towns in the county for the Christian Union.
