We remember contrib uting a dollar or two to the project. We are entitled to at least a score or two of black Lames for that little investment. Frequent inquiries have been made in re gard to the health of fir. Speer since the death of several prominent members of Congress whose consciences, it is believed, were too much for them. Five thousanel dollars won't kill Speer ! Not a bit of it. James T. Shirley, Esq., of Cove Station, a well known and highly respected citizen, was found dead in his bed, on last Thursday morning. Be retired in his usual good health, and passed away in sleep. We sympathize deeply with his family and friends. Mr. Gage, Superintendent of the Broad Top railroad, has assured the people of McConnells town, that if they will hold ont any reasonable encouragement he will secure a party to erect a furnace at that point.

The parties who were arrested for the out rage upon the little colored girl, mentioned in our last, were before Judge Clarkson last week, on a writ of Rabe. Corpus, and failing to procure $l5OO bail in each case they were remanded to jail. Ganta has not been arres ted yet. The Coleman Sisters, Alice, Louie and Clara, gave two entertainments hero to crowded houses, last week. These young ladies are great favorites with our people and they are generally patronized more liberally than any other troupe. Their performances are truly inarvelloug. We hope they were pleased with the reception given them. Ministers frequently scold their audiences for dullness—going to sleep in the midst of the sermon. This is principally owing to the surroundings. If the church is badly lighted, as is the ease very frequently, it will have a dark and gloomy appearance, and the tendency is to make people dull. Let in more of God's brilliant light, and your hearers will be sprightly. Nothing of the kind, friend Frysinger, noth ing of the kind; but since you suggest it, would'ut it be a good idea for you to take a little of your own medicine? Soap is a good thing, and it might do you good 1 Some of those fellows, who advertise in your columns at three cents a line, might make enough off of you, by the time you are thoroughly cleansed, to pay their advertising bills. On last Sunday night, about ten o'clock, J. A. Pollock, Esq., discovered an individual prowling about his new machine shol), in West Huntingdon. The person was dressed in dark clothes and wore a low crowned hat. He was pursued by Mr. Pollock, but escaped. He or some other person had deposited a box, filled with shavings and a number of matches, just beneath the side of the shop, evidently intending tie burn it down. The people in the neighborhood of McC tn nellstown committed a grave error, some five or sin years ago, by leasing their ore lands to a set of sharks from Danville, known as the "Grove Brothers." These sharpers assured the people that they would erect furnaces in that vicinity until they secured their lands, and now they refuse to do anything but haul the ores away. They do nothing towards buildin,g up the community themselves, nor will they allow any other persons to do it. The people should seek relief in equity.

[my7-3t I.)EATII OF HUGH NELSON M'ALLIs-1 TOO—Death has again invaded the ranks of Pennsylvania's distinguished men, anti this time his cruel shaft has stricken down one of nature's noblemen. It is our mournful prov ince to record the death of Hon. Hugh N. Al' Allister, of Bellefonte, which occurred in Philadelphia, on Monday night last. Mr. 91 . - Allister was born in Lost Creek valley, Mif• Sin county, (now Juniata) in the month of June, 1809. He was a son of Judge William M'Allister, well known to the lawyers of the ancient regime. His preparatory education was received in his native county. Afterwards be I entered Jefferson college, at Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, where he graduated with the most distingnisned honors of a class which I produced some of the test men of our own and other States. tie read law with W. W. Potter, Esq., of Bellefonte, who was account ed the best lawyer, after Judge Huston, of his time in that neighborhood. As a legal prac titioneer Mr. M'Allister was one of the most energetic, industrious and successful of his profession. At the time of his death he was a member of the Constitutional Convention, in which he served on the Committee of Suf frage and the Committee on Railroads and Canals. He was one of the most active and influential members of that body, and his se vere labors io the Convention doubtless has tened his death. Aside from this he never held, because he never sought, public posi tion. His loss to that body is irreparable. He was a man of independent thought and action and despised tie power of the caucus. At home he was universally beloved. His hospitality and kindness of heart were pro verbial. Truly " The good die first And they whose hearts are dry as summer's dust, Burn to the socket." The lamented deceased was well known here and had many friends among our people. He was a brother in-law of A. Boyd Hamil- ton, Esq., of this city. Ile leaves a widow and two children.

They will appear at Yenter's Hall, Saturday evening, May 24. The London, (England) Daily Times, whose oorrect musical criticisms are copied over the whole continent of Europe, says of them "No such performance on the hand bells has been heard in London within cur memory. To say that the music produced by these extra ordinary bell-ringers is sweet, is to mention its smallest merit. It is not only melodious but pure, tender, sympathetic, and expressive to a degree to which no written description can do adequate justice." The Alleghanians present free to every lady and gentleman on entering the hall with a "Musical Programme," which is fully worth the price of admission and is a new feature in their concert.

ROOK HILL IRON AND COAL Co.—We elip the following from the Fouse Bulletin, for April, published at Rock Hill Furnace, this county 'And right here, in our own midst, among the grand old hills of Huntingdon county, we can boast of two such benefactors, in the individual characters of P. P. DEWEES Esq., and Doctor LEWIS ROYER. These gentle men operated for years in their modest and unassuming way, to all external appearances, but during that time their influence and ener gies were directed toward the opening up and development of the boundless resources of the Aughwick and the immeasurable wealth of Eastern Broad Top, and the introduction and establishing of rail and wire throughout the length and breadth of our county, until their efforts culminated in the formation of the opulent and mighty corporation of The Rock Hill Iron and Coal Company, \those very name is a tower of strength, and whose influence and labor are felt throughout the whole United States. And with the beautiful maxim—" Honor to whom honor is due,"-- before our minds, we should not forget to render that treed of praise to Messrs. DEWEES and Roves, that they so richly deserve, for in their fertile and full-matured brains this great enterprise originated, and through their in strumentality the scheme and undertaking are being rapidly pushed to completion, so that on the morning of the text anniversary of our glorious independence, the citizens of Orbiso niat and of this valley will be aroused from their slumbers by the loud whistle of the steam engine, and their eyes wilt behold the smoke issuing from the large stacks of half a dozen first-class furnaces. And within the compass of a few months : the inexhaustible quantities of coal embedded in the elevation of the Broad Top, and the vast deposits of iron ore throughout the whole extent of the con templated railroad, will be converted from its raw state, and from a massive block of worth lessness to a most remunerative commodity, and one of the principal ingredients that enter into the wealth of any people or nation, and right in the heart of our own valley-, thus making the Aughwick one of the wealthiest and most noted regions in Pennsylvania.

Enema :—The papers of both parties, and all descriptions, have cast great reproach on the late Legislature, especially the House of Representatives, thereby disgracing the Commonwealth which committed so important concerns to men so unworthy. I was officially connected with the House, during the session, and was acquainted with the whole course of its business. I feel confident that I can mess ureably vindicate to you and your readers the fair fame of my adopted State, so far as it de pends upon the .tharacter of its legislators. I know the system is not faultless under which they work; 1 know that they have commitatd er rors in the work; I am well assured that several districts might have sent men superior, men tally and physically, to the late members ; but it is unjust to villify the whole body with black and indiscriminate reproach. Among the members were several of standing in the religious organizations of the State, and men who have taken a prominentpart in discussion and have had no small influence in shaping the legislation of the session. An example is found in the legislation on temperance, for which salutary measure they were able, in spite of every adverse influence, to obtain a majority scarce less than two-thirds. Without too much trespass on your space, I desire to say a word on three accusations against the House. The first is hasty legisla tion. In respect to any proposed measure of public importance this charge is utterly false. I can testify to the patience and caution wills which such subjects were discussed and, if my opinion is of any value. the wisdom with which they were generally decided. A second charge is private legislation. In so extensive a Commonwealth, with so vari oas interests, it is impossible to regulate all mutters by invariable and universal laws. A mining section requires methods which would be improper in an agricultural or manufactu ring community. It is the duty of the supreme power to give the sanction of law to the reg ulations which each region requires for its pe- culiar interests. Doubtless this is liable to abuse, and has been abused ; it cannot be abolished without greater injury than any abuse yet visible. It is this class of acts, if any, that is chargeable with haste. The mem ber who introduces a bill, at the request of his constituents, is presumed to know their inter ests, and members from distant sections, in some cases, permit it to be enacted without objection or close examination. It is snore the fault of the people than the House, that the Salons of the State are occupied with such , trifles as the preservation of trout and the de struction of skunks in some outlandish cor ner of our territory. Extravagance in appropriating money is an other charge against the House, and to the Senate public rumor gives the credit of keep ing it within bounds. By the Constitution, the appropriation bill must be framed in the House. The committee by whom it was drawn up was besieged, night and day, all winter long, by hosts of applicants, by colleges, schools, asylums, hospitals and other institu tions, all claiming a share of the public treas ure. That committee, and the House, in ac cepting and passing their bill, endeavored to satisfy all interests and deal impartially with all sections.. It certainly proposed to draw very large sums from tie treasury, and among the rest to increase the salaries of members 50 per cent. When that bill was laid before the Senate, many of the most deserving objects of public charity were deprived of the small sums awarded them by the bill. The increase of salary being denounced in the papers, that also was struck off and the disinterested Sen ators highly lauded till the secret was reveal ed that the increase had been inserted in the bill at the urgent request of many Senators. The Hutton deserves the credit of yielding to all the Senate's amendments that promoted economy, and objected only to some items of very doubtful economy and propriety inserted by the Senate. Of the odium of waste, as well as the credit of saving, each house should take an equal share. Of the general character of the House and its labors, the Resident Clerk, who has for many years been intimately acquainted with the legislation of the State, declares that iu both it was superior to the average. Reform is doubtless needed, but cannot be promoted by declaring the whole mass of business ini quitous and the members a den of thieves.— The scene of pleasantry, on the last night of the session, called by some papers "a glorying in their shame," can surely be ascribed to a better motive. Legislators, about to separate after a session in which there had been no party bitterness, no angry passiens stirred by the heat of debate, may show themselves "children (4 a largergrowth" without severe censure. Some truth was told by the invited and sarcastic lecturer on Reform, but it is not strange that the friends of pure legislation should hesitate to accept, as the Apostle of Reform, one who had long been among the wiliest politicians, and should regard Reform, in his mouth, as a sharp trick to attain some partisan and sinister end. The Legislature of 1372 inaugurated, and that of 1873 sanctioned, the Convention now employed in framing a new code of fundamen tal law. When that instrument is completed and commends itself to the good sense of the people, and that people select their best men to legislate under it, then, and only then, will Reform be accomplished. A Cabinet of Huntingdon County Minerals. HORATIO G. Plums, ESQ., Chairman Hunting don County Agricultural Society. Dear Sir : I beg leave to suggest, for your consideration, that the citizens of the several townships of this county, be respectfully invited to send you specimens of minerals from their respective townships, viz: iron ore, coal, glass, sands, porcelain and fire clays, lime stone, slates, building and ornamental stone, &c., &c., with which to form four cabinets of Huntingdon coun txminerals ; one for the use of your associa tion to be placed in the charge of the Clerk or Commissioners of this county, together with printed description of the several specimens, and a county map with figures to. designate the locality of each of these, to which stran gers and citizens may have access. Also sim ilar cabinets, one for the State Cabinet, anoth er for Congress, and another for the Centennial Celebration, to form the nucleus of a National Mineral Cabinet, accessable to visitors from Europe and elsewhere. On the 18th of April, 1866, 1 had prepared and sent to New York, for use of a Congress of business men, called to meet at Cooper In stitute, samples and printed description of some f the ores, he., &c. of the Aughwick Valley, Huntingdon Co., Pa.: My letter to this Congress, published in the New York Herald, was the only report made from that Congress, although the published sail was signed by some two hundred distinguished and influen tial citizens of several states.

EDITOR JonftNex.—l had not thought of writing yes for some time, but grandfather thinks I should write to you frequently, says that is the way he learned to write for a pa per. Mr. Editor, I see some one signing him self Jas. S. P. it. the last issue of the JOURNAL, does a little injustice to our town. He says : "we saw the mudiest, dirty, filthy, streets and sidewalks we have met with in all sue travels Have the citizens of Orbisonia no pride in their town ?" Now what your correspondent remarks about our streets are, is a measure true; he should consider that it is impossible to keep streets in order while we have so many new buildings going up ; just let him wait till we have our buildings completed and we will show him, that our streets and side walks will compare favorably with any town in the county. Nothing of special interest has se cured here since I wrote you before. Grand father still reads the Globe and wonders that so few seem to appreciate its merits. Last night after reading it to a late hour, ho laid down his spectacles and talked a long time about the Professor; said lie had dune so much for the Soldiers' Orphans; had spent so much time teaching the way of life; he said he had often prayed with them and for them, and that he had not stood like the index boardpointing the way, but by a consistent, upright, christian life, be had, like the good Shepherd, walked before them, leading them in the straight and narrow way, saying "this is the way walk :re in it." Be thought it would never be known to the judgment day the amount of good he I had done those poor orphans. Here the conver sation ended; grandfather said his prayers and went to bed. But lie got up in the morning with a downcast look. I saw at once there was something wrong, I said: "0 grandfather what is the matter ?"oii, alas! alas!' said he, had a dream last night that troubles me." His trouble was not like Nebuchadnener's; he had not for gotten the dream, neither did he want an in terpretation; he thought he knew too well its meaning. It was some time before I could get him to tell his dream. Finally he said: "I dreamed that I died and went to Heaven, and while there, many of my friends and acquain tances were admitted to that holy place; some that I never expected to see there, and while I enjoyed myself perfectly, still I longed for the time when my much esteemed friend, the Professor, would be admitted to that Blissful place, where we should meet to part no more. Finally, I thought the Professor came, in com pany with several others, and when they knocked for admittance I supposed the gates would be opened wide for their reception, but to my utter astonishment the Master refused to let them in. Then I thought I heard the Professor say, I have preached the Gospel to thy people, I have been a true friend to the orphan and widow, and in thy name I have done many good works,' to which the Master replied, 'depart from me ye workers of iniqui ty, I never knew you.' With the close of this awful sentence, I awoke atul found it was a dream." Now, Mr. Editor, I have been try ing to persuade grandfather that it is only a dream, but it don't do any good. He says his dreams alway come true, and lie thinks Heaven would be rather a dull place without the Professor. Poor grandfather, I pity him. But he is reading the Globe again, and I hope be will forget his dream. As this letter is al ready longer than I intended it to be, I will now close.. Truly, yours, Pam. CROMWELL. P. S.—lt is said, from reliable sources, that a man near Maddensville. this comity, had his feet frozen quite as bad as Pierce's and cured them without calling on a doctor, by using a poultice made of Slippery Elm bark pounded in water. Grandfather says as frozen feet have become rather dangerous these latter days, he thinks this cure should be published as it might not only save life, but money, too, in our county taxes. P. C. Orbisonis,May 7, 1873. From Shirleysburg Mn. EDITOR :—Since our last letter to the Jounxnt, John Logan has appeared twice in the columns of the Globe ;once as the veritable John himself, and latterly his amanuensis under the caption of Captain Jack, Jr., a name well suited to the writer. The latter gentle.. man makes a gallant defence of Poor House affairs, don't he? Ho goes on to say that I have a diploma from some Eclectic College, &c. Well, Jack, I admit that I have a diploma from the Eclectic Medical College, of Pennsylvania. Said College is not defunct ; never was found guilty of selling diplomas by any Legislature; has had more students the tact session, just closed, than ever it had be fore ; I got my diploma by hard study and perseverance, as 1 got everything else. It Is true I differ in my views in regard to thera peutics, from the majority of Physicians in this county, but have had my peculiar ideas treated with respect by them, and so far, my intercourse with them has been of the most friendly character. There are persons who deride everything that is oppose': to their opinions. The same in medicine as religion. I know a man that took his wife away from the Methodist church because she was seeking religion there, and we are very much mistaken if it was net "Jack, Jr." If I were in the place of John Logan and Jack, I would have a special investigation, and see where we got our diploma, how we get it, and where ; also, hew we procured the honorary degree, which was conferred on us last Spring by the Amer ican University. Perhaps that was also bought. 1 now have in my possession a card from the Dean of the College, where I took my degree, explaining some of Logan & Co's. questions, which I will publish in a few days. Jaek says they do not employ anybody but emminent physicians at the Poor house. All hail ! Eminent I Who would have thought it? We thought anybody would do. We believe Dr. G. W. Thompson could certify to the emi nence (?) of one of the late ones. Do you really think, John, that you can take the eyes of the people off of Poor House affairs by writing personal articles in regard to me ? if so, we pity your ignorance, and will allow you all the comfort you may derive from it. It must be a soothing panacea to you, judging from the ntinber of times you repeat the same thing. Can you not get something new? How about our private character, is there nothing there? When you were canvassing Clearfield county for evidence of mal-practice, &c., could you not find something? We had nu merous Surgical cases. A year's practice as a young physician ought to have afforded you something. Too bad, John. How about Dr. Baird, is he a quack too, that you send to Or bisenia for a physician ? Has there been no mal-practice at the Poor House within the last year ? How about the Stewart horse ? Has the horse been used any since you got it? Has it Ring-bone? Did not Mr. Smith, while Direc tor, in violation of law, sell the county Shoats to the amount of $3000? Did you not Oink you had us "dried up?" Hew about your' temperance vote? Don't vote either way, and then talk about honesty and principle. Bosh Now, John, you can proceed with your Diplo man, bogus M. D's., Re. We will perhaps show, if necessary, how you care for some of the afflicted paupers, by creditable witnesses. Yours, Re., . _ ANTI -Joss Shirleysburg, Pa., May, 9, 1873. HUNTINGDON MARKETS.
