a hat. He is about right.

What would the party or parties think, who
solicit printing and send it to Philadelphia to
be executed, if some other party or par
, ties were to supply, from Philadelphia, every
thing they have to sell and thus try to ruin
the business they have endeavored to build
up ? Wouldn't they regard it as very mean
and contemptible ? More anon.
Lemons are now abundant and cheap. A
grateful drink may be easily prepared from
them, which can be kept for use in warm and
sultry summer days. Remove all the pulps
from the peels, and boil them in water, in pro
portion of a pint for a dozen pulps, to extract
the acid. Boil a few minutes, then strain the
water with the juice of the lemons, and put a
pound of white sugar to a pound of juice.—
Boil all ten minutes and bottle. A teaspoonful
of this lemon syrup, in a glass of water, makes
a cool and refreshing drink.

A. riot occurred on Saturday of last week, on
Montgomery street, Hollidaysburg, between
some of the colored laborers on the railroad,
and some whites, in which stones were thrown
and several pistols fired. One of the colored

blame, as these negrocs are very peaceable,
and take their part only when imposed upon.

Our Masonic friends will do well to keep an

It seems that incendiarism is not yet extinct
in our town, says the Bellefonte RepuNican.—
On Thursday, the 13th inst., at about 4 o'clock,
a. m., the stable of Mrs. Hamilton, situated
back of Howard street, was discovered to be
on fire. The alarm was first given by William
Clark, the watchman at Reynolds' Bank,.of
this place. Fortunktely the fire was discover
ed before it got under fair headway, and the
flames were soon extinguished by a few buck
ets of water. The fire was evidently the work
of an incendiary.
On Thursday afternoon last, at Academia,
says the Mifflintown Independent, while a par
ty of students from the Tuscarora Academy,
at that place, were swimming in Pomeroy's
Mill Dam a student was unfortunately drown
ed. No explanation can be made of the acci
dent, except that his comrades say they heard
him make some noise, but, supposing it to be
merely sport, gave it no attention for a few
moments when they discovered he was dead.
The name of the deceased was Charles Mc-
Cullough. He was nineteen years of age. His
parents live at Frostburg, Md.
Wm. H: Gardner, Esq., cashier of the First
National Bank, Hollidaysburg, says the Regis
ter, had his forehead severely gashed last week.
Whilst on his way to Martinsburg, the train
stopped at McNees' Gap, and while the car he
u-as in was standing on the track, another car
was jammedwith much force against it, knock
ing Mr. Gardner against the corner of the
window, cutting a deep gash in his forehead
above the eye, and knocking him speechless
for several minutes. lie had to return and
have the wound properly attended to—and we
are glad to state, it is now fast healing up.
Conductor Davis, who was killed on the
Broad Top railroad, says the Bedford County
Press, was a single man and the son of Esquire
Davis, of Hopewell township, and the junior
member of the firm of Tobias & Davis, of Bloo
dy Run. He had but recently taken charge
of the train, but had already become known
as a most popular conductor and affable gen
tleman. He was highly esteemed by all who
knew him, and was a devout and consistent
member of the Presbyterian Church. His fu
neral took place on Saturday, from his father's
residence, and was largely attended by his
sorrowing friecds and relatives.
Isaac Heddings, tenant on 0. I'. Smith's
farm in New Armagh district, Mifflin connty,
says the Gazette, left home on Saturday for
the purpose of paying a visit up the valley,
and when passing Kerr's farm above Reeds
ville, a peacock setting on the fence suddenly
uttered its discordant note, freightening the
horse so that be attempted to run away. Mr.
H. tried to check him, but he got on a bank,
throwing Mr. Heddings out over the dasher of
the buggy, and upsetting the vehicle with Mrs.
Heddings and a child in her arms in it. Mr.
H. was severely stunned by his fall, his wife
scratched and somewhat bruised, while the
child fortunately escaped without any percep
tible hurt.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company ; says
the Lewistown Gazette, has commenced fenc-
ing off fourteen acres of ground on Gen.
Burns' farm across the river, recentlysecured,
and we hear of some talk of a Railroad Direc-
tors meeting shortly for the the purpose of
determining on the improvements to be made.
Everything over there denotes business, and
the old warehouse being so changed that it is
hardly recognizable, additional tracks are
preparing for the branches, and up the river
a large force is at work widening the road
bed, no doubt with a view of an additional
track. It is one of the probabilities that in
another year freight, as well as other trains
from New York, will reach the Pennsylvania
at Lewistown Junction via the Sunbury and
Lewistown.
The reviewers appointed by the court of
quarter sessions, says the Bedford Gazette, to
act in the Richard street bridge site, met on
Friday last to attend to the duties of their ap
pointment. On the same day, by the same
men, the view for a bridge at the end of Juli
ana street was also had. Juliana and Richard
were each represented by counsel and others,
strongly urging, by argument wise and other
wise, the peculiar advantages of each locality.
Things were quite livey for a while. But the
viewers heeded not the war of woods which
was going on around them by the zealouspar
tizans of the several localities, and confirmed
the action of the former viewers, the grand
jury, the court and the commissioners. They
reported unanimously in favor of the Richard
street site, and unanimously against that on
Juliana. This should certainly settle this vex
ed question.
On Monday night about half past eight
o'clock, says the Hollidaysburg Register, fire
was discovered issuing from tho Steam Tan
nery of William Smith, in Dancansville. The
alarm was promptly given, and every effort
made to save the building, but the flames
spread so rapidly, that it could not he saved.
The fire was soon communicated to the barn,
of the Allegheny Hook and Ladder company,
from Holliaysburg, who in turn kept it under
control till the arrival of the Phoenix engine,
when it was speedily extinguished, and the
fire prevented from spreading to the dwelling
house and other buildings in close proximity.
Mr. Smith lost all his books and papers. The
loss of the building and stock he estimates at
twenty thousand dollars—without including
the books. No insurance. Alexander Hart
fell, during the fire, from the roof of the barn,
broke his arm in two places, and was other
wise slightly injured, and Jack Gibboney was
struck in the head by a bucket being thrown
upon him from the roof of the barn, and se
verely, but not dangerously injured.

FISIIER & SONS.
TILE COMMON SCHOOL HOUSE.—Mr.
Editor :—E have learned, within the last few
days, that the School Directors propose to
spend a large sum of money in repairing the
miserable old fort on the hill yclept a School
House. Have the School Directors no sym
pathy for the poor children who are imprison
ed there from day to day to say nothing of
pride nor taste? No ventilation, no light,
dingy rooms, defective heating apparatus, im
proper furniture and a building whose exteri
or would drive away any intelligent stranger
who might desire to locate here—these are
the principal characteristics. At a distance
it resembles a fort of the olden time, with
small port or loop holes; the merest tyronism.
It is a disgrace to the age in which we live
and the curse of children. Why cannot Hun
tingdon have at least as respectable a "Peo
ples' College" as her neighbors'? Even little
Lewistown, with one-third our population, is
building a house that will cost from $25,000
to $30,000 to adorn the town and bless her
children. I hope, for the sake of humanity
and enterprise, that the Directors will spend
no more money on this ill-favored edifice.
Give us one respectable building and it will
answer our population for fifty years to come.
If it is thought that the views here expressed
are wrong, I pray the Board of Directors to
submit the whole matter to a committee of
acknowledged educators, from some other
portion of the State, and I, with others, will
abide by their decision. lIIIMANITAS.
ITEMS FROM ATJGHWICK VALLEY.—
A correspondent over the signature of "A
Friend" writes us from Aughwick Mills, as
follows: "This afternoon we are enjoying a
fine rain which is very much needed as the
grain in this vicinity looks very poor except
along the bottom land bordering on the river
and creek.
"There is still considerable excitement here
in regard to the railroad. It is reported that
the company intends to commence work in a
month or two. If this should be the case it
will make lively times here for a while.
"There are two or three ore banks in this
immediate neighborhood. One on the prop
erty occupied by Mr. John Copenhaven about
two-and-a-half miles south of Mt. Union, and
the other on the property of Peter Shaver
about two miles from the same place.
"The farmers of this neighborhood are be
ginning to make clover hay, but the clover is
extremely scarce.
"The political fever has not began to rage
here yet. All the Republicans here arc in
favor of Grant and Wilson,"
EXAMINATION OF THE CASSVILLE SOL.
micas' OILMAN ScnooL.—The Annual Examin
ation of this school will take place on Friday,
July 12th. Hon. J. P. Wickersham, State Su
perintendent, will positively be present and
conduct the examination. A number of other
able educators are also expected. A special
invitation is extended to the directors and
teachers of common schools, clergymen, edi
tors, and all other friends of education and the
Soldiers' Orphans, in Huntingdon county, to

provided at the school. An interesting Exhi
bition will bo given by the Orphans on Friday
night.

steads. 3d, To St. Joseph, Kansas City and all

quick time and good connections), and are in
a word the best equipped roads in the West.

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 are 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 men who wants
to make money out of dry-goods, grocer
ies, &c. tf.
GIIIJ3IBLENS AT NEWSPAPERS.—The
Bloomsburg Columbian says : "It is strange
how closely men read the newspapers. We
never say anything that anybody don't like,
but we soon hear of it, and everybody is sure
to tell us of it. If however once in a (while
we happen to say a good thing, we never hear
of that; nobody seems to notice that. We pay
some man a hundred compliments, and give a
dozen puffs, and he takes it all as a tribute to
his greatness, and he never thinks of it; never
thinks it does him any good. But if we hap
pen to say things this man don't like, or some
thing he imagines is a reflection on him or his
character, see how quick he flares up and gets
mad about it. All our evils are duly charged
to us, but we never apparently get any credit
for what we do."
ABOUNDING IN BIRDS.—It is a notice-
'Bute Mt. 411aY volvea- •••rsitsus of the
ornithological tribe are more abundant this
summer, at least in this latitude, than they
have been for years past. Orchard, hedge,
forest and by-way seem to be alive with feath
ered songsters : and the increase is, doubtless,
caused by the recent legislative enactments
for their protection and preservation. They
are, really, the farmers' and fruit-growers'
friend ; and any violation of law in regard to
the shooting of birds or robbing their nests
should be promptly reported, and the offenders
punished in every instance.
THE Broad Top Mountain House is one
of the finest and best kept hotels in the in
terior of the State. It is pleasently located
on the summit of Broad Top Mountain where
the air is cool and bracing. The water which
is obtained from a large spring near the house,
is free from impurities and deliciously cool.
Mr. W. T. Pearson, the gentlemanly proprietor,
is attentive and obliging to his guests. His
table will satisfy the most fastidious. The
building is large, well furnished and all things
considered, one of the most pleasant and
healthful summer resorts in Pennsylvania.
Try it.
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, Flatultncy, Croup and kills Worms.
Slake your Druggist send for it ; he will always
keep it, as every family must have it. It costs
but fifty cents a bottle. Dunes--4t.
BROAD TOP COAL TRADE.—The Coal
Trade Circular still fails to give the reason for
the falling off of Broad Top coal in comparison
with last year. We showed that it was owing
to an inability to ship growing out of a de
struction of a quarter of a mile of trestle. But
as the Circular puts it the trade cannot hell)
but infer that the falling off is attributable to
a decrease iu the demand for the coal.

Sarsaparillian Resolvent has made the moat astonishing
cures; so quick, ao rapid are the changes the body undo.-
goes under the infinance of this truly wonderful-medi
cine, that every day an increase iu flesh and weight is
seen and felt.
The Great Blood Purifier.
Every drop of the Sarsaparilllan Resolvent communi
cates through the Blood, Sweat, urine, and other fluids
and juices of the system the vigor of life, for it repairs
the wastes of the body with acts and sound material.
Scrofula, Syphilis, Consumption, Glandular disease Ulcers
in the Throat, Mouth, Tumors, Nodes in the Glands and
other parts of the system, Sore Eyes, Strunious Discharges
from the Ears, and the worst form of Skin Diseases, Erup
tions, Fever Sores, Scald Head, Ring Worm, Salt Rheum,
Erysipelas, Ache, Black Spots, Worms in the flesh, Tu
mors, Cancers in the Womb, and all weakening and pain
ful discharges, Night Sweats, Loss of Sperm, and all
wastes of the life principle, are within the curative range
of this wonder of Modern Chemistry, and a few days'
use will prove to any person using it for either of these
forms of disease its potent power to cnre them.
If the patient, daily becoming reduced by the wastes
and decomposition that is continually progressing, suc
ceeds in arresting the waste, and repairs the same with
new material made from healthy blood—and this the Sar
eaparillinn will and does secure.
Tot only does the Sarsaparillian Resolvent excel all
known remedial agents in the cure of Chronic, Scrofulous
Constitutional, and skin diseases ; but it is the only pos
