with a pain in his epigastram.
Dr. Isaac Guss has been appointed post
master at Cassville, vice J. P. Heaton removed.
This an excellent appointment.
Mr. Fremont Morrison, of Oneida township,
while skating a week or two ago, fell upon
the ice and broke his collar bone. •
There was a Lion in Beavertown during the
late protracted meeting held at that place.—
Ile was not very dangerous, however.
Henry Hawn, of Juniata township, froze one
of his feet so badly that Dr. D. P. Miller was
obliged to amputate a couple of his toes.
The sub-committee, to investigate the Cass-
Tulle matter, is expected to sit here early next
week. Then we will see what we will hear.
The Pierce case figures up well in the Alms
House statement. So much for too much
whisky. This is only one of the many less
expensive cases.
The County Statement, published elsewhere,
shows a less amount of money due Hunting.
don county than for any previous year, per
haps, in a decade.
Beavertown has a little chap who started to
school, two months ago, without knowing his
letters, and now he can spell pretty well in
three syllables. Good teaching has done it.
We are solemnly informed, by a Bearertown,
correspondent, that a certain person, in that
locality, uses too mueh bear's oil when he
goes among the ladies. Can this be possible?
We have just cased several fonts of new and
beautiful job type. We have the most com
plete job office of any inland town in the
-State, and our work is unsurpassed in beauty
and cheapness.
Some of the oil, from one of the tanks be
ing repaired at the car works which bad
run down along the railroad, wis set on fire
by a passing engine, one day last week, and
burned furiously.
"Washy," infant son of Mr. Nelson Stowder,
of this place, while sitting at the stove, fell
forward upon it and badly burned one of his
bands and his head. The little sufferer is
rapidly recoverin g.
Thomas Picket, of this place, running on a
freight train, while loaning out of a caboose
car, near the coal wharf, on Thursday last,
was struck by the caboose of a backing -train
and seriously injured.
J. Irvin Steel, esq., editor of the Ashland
Advocate, dropped in to see us on Saturday
last. He looks bad, having been indisposed
for several months. We wish him a speedy
return of good health.
The widow of the late General William A.
Petriken, and mother of our townsman, lion.
R. Bruce Petriken, and Bon. B. W. Petriken,
member of assembly from Lycoming county,
died at Muncy on the 28th ult.
George E. Taylor is teaching school, this
winter, at Beavertown, and he is said to be
very Eneeeß.fol. The people appear to be
very much pleased with him. Good, indus
trious teachers are always favorites.
Revs. Zahnizer and Dole changed pulpits
on last Sunday. These little courtesies, be
tween ministers, give congregations a fine op
portunity of ascertaining how the views of the
respective clergymen accord upon leading so
cial questions.
We neglected to state, last week, that Jno.
G. Stewart, esq., bad resigned the position of
Jury Commissioner, and that the Court had
appointed George Leas, esq., of Shirleysburg,
to the position. Mr. Leas will make an excel
lent Commissioner.
Mr. James R. Kenny, of Altoona, a. conduc
tor on a freight train, was struck, by the Mail
train east, at Coal Sidiug, below this place, on
Thursday last, while 'engaged in coupling
cars, and severely injured. lie was conveyed
to Altoona by the Mail west.
Oa Saturday, the 24th ult., they had a
shooting-match, at Beavertown, for a fifteen
dollar heifer, and a few smaller articles. The
shortest string, out of three shots, in a dis
tance of sixty yards, was to carry off the
prize. Mr. David Long drove off the heifer
on a string of one eighth of an inch. Who
can beat this ?
About a mouth ago a man, in the neighbor
hood of Newburg, missed a steer, and he had
three young men arrested for stealing it, and
had two or three houses searched for the beef.
The young men were taken before a justice of
the peace and proved themselves innocent.—
Rumor says, that a few days ago, b found his
beef in his own cellar.
Jacob Zuilius, of West Huntingdon, had his
nose badly broken, on Saturday last, by a
piece of timber. Some parties were in the
act of handling the timber cud threw it upon
something which caused one end to fly up and
strike him in the face. It made our friend
Jacob look as if he had been in a regular
pitched battle. We expect him to be all right
in a few days.
Some wretched editor, without the fear of
everlasting brimstone before his eyes, has
gotten off the following: "Lives there a man
with soul co dead, who never to himself has
sold, pay before.l ro to bed, the debt I
owe the printer? Yes, there are some who
know full well, who never such a tale could
tell, but they, I fear, will go to—well, the place
where there's uo winter.' "
Persons who hold lots, in West Huntingdon,
on mere speculation; waiting for their neigh
bors to make them valuable, ought to be com
pelled, by the borough authorities, to keep up
good sidewalks. It they will do nothing to
improve the town they ought not to be allow
ed to reap all the advantages of their neigh
bors' improvements, without doing something
towards giving these kind neighbors decent
-walks to and from their homes.
We publish the Alms Rouse statement this
week. It is ole of the most intelligible state
ments that we have ever examined. No one
can read it without seeing exactly where the
money has gone.. We must accord George W.
Whittaker, esq., the intelligent clerk, credit
for haviag met the demands of the public with
an exhibit that .cannot fail to be satisfactory,
in point of information. 'We bare no doubt
that many of our readers will object to the
totals, but they are quite another thing.
.11r. David. Rupert, of Henderson township,
met with a serious accident, a few days ago,
.under singular circumstances. For some time
past Mr. Rupert has been suffering from rheu
matism, and his wife thought to improve his
health by rubbing the afflicted parts with al
cohol. At the time of the accident she was
•engaged in rubbing his back, and by some
means the fluid was ignited, and in a twinkle
his back was a skeet of flame, and before the
%fire could be extinguished be was severely
burned, from the effects of which he is still
suffering.
About 9:30 o'clock, on Thursday morning,
last, while Mr. Luden Long, an employee of
the new car works, was in the inside of an oil

the switch-table and Mr. Long taken from it

Ile was removed to' his home where he is ra- as I am not ambitious for any notoriety in
pidly recovering. that direction, having already, during my ed
itorial experience, received what I conceived
to be my full share of abuse, and being now
desirous, as a private citizen, to live at peace
with my neighbors, and 'the rest of mankind,'
I would simply say to the author of this sug
gestion, that if he, in the same capacity, will
attend to his own business I will try to attend
to mine, which, in the end, may be better for
us both.
If it be any satisfaction to any person, or to
the public, to know that I have never bad
part or lot in the unfortunate political and
personal contest now waged between the dif
ferent papers, they are quite welcome to the
information, as I have no desire to receive any
.credit foe what does not belong to me, or to
incur ill will and censure where it can be
avoided. Yours, very truly,
The Bellefonte Republican, in its account of
the recent shooting of Mr. Ettle on an up train,
between this place and Petersburg, says :
"He was well-off of this world's goods, having
accumulated quite a fortune. He was forty
five years of age, and leaves a wife and large
family. Deceased was formerly a wholesale
liquor dealer, and it is said that lately, owing
to the local option law, in several counties, his
trade has greatly fallen off. This seemed to
have set him to brooding, and got him under
the impression that he would soon be bank
rupt, and this is asserted as the cause of the
rash act. Mr. Ettle was highly esteemed, and
it is said that he has left a written statement
giving the reasons for committing the deed."
A correspondent of the Altoona Tribune
says : "Aline men belonging to John White
head's mines are perfect gentlemen, but they
are 'down on' a certain newspaper hailing
from Pittsburgh, claiming to be the laboring
man's friend. These liberal men hare been
defrauded out of a large sum of money by the
editor of this Pittsburgh paper, who taxed
them two dollars each, sent them a few copies
of the paper and then quit. I pity the editor,
or his representative, if ever caught around
Dudley, or Broad Top City. Humbugs do not
flourish long among these miners." If these
laboring men had subscribed for the Hunting
don Jouitx&L they would be receiving a week
ly blessing, instead of having to do such fear
ful cussin'. Take the JOURNAL, its the peer
man's advocate.
The Rev. Hunter, of the Baptist Church, a
most excellent gentleman, in company with
his family, was invited out to an oyster sup
per, at the residence of one of his members,
and immediately after the Reverend gentle
man had left his domicil, the members of his
church and other neighbors assembled, in
great force, with baskets, bundles, innumera
ble packages, sacks, and the good people only
know what all, and made an assault upon the
house, and after repeated efforts succeeded in
effecting an entrance, and deposited their lug
gage. The good man was then informed that
a large party had arrived at his residence and
that a wedding war, no doubt, on the tapis.—
He hurried home to find his house crowded
and himself the most completely surprised
man a e have ever seen. The party spent the
evening very pleasantly, and retired, at an
early hour, with the blessings of the family.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
R. McDivirr.
IVRA7' MEN NEED WIVES FOR.
It is not to sweep the house, to make the
beds, to darn the socks, nor cook meals chief
ly, that a man wants a wife. If this were all,
hired help could do it cheaper than a wife of
the present day. If this were all, when a
young man calls upon a. young lady, with a
view to matrimony, he might be sent to the
pantry to taste the bread and cakes, the work
of her hands; he might inspect the needle
work and bed-making, or put a broom in her
hands and he might thus witness her profi
ciency. It is true that these things are highly
important and the wise young man will quick
ly look after them. But what the young man
wants with a wife is her companionship, sym
pathy and love. The way of life has many
dreary places in it, and man is told by the
voice of nature, that ho should have a com
panion to cheer him as he travels these deso
late aad lonely paths. Some times misfor
tunes overtake him; be meets with failure and
defeat; trials and temptations beset him on
every band and he needs one to stand by and
sympathize and encourage him. He has many
'hard battles to fight with poverty, many hard
encounters with sin, and, consequently many
discouragements. He wants a companion, so
that when lie puts his arm around her and
presses his lips to hers, be can feel that he has
something to live for. She ought to help him
to bear up against trials and disappointments,
with loving words and sweet smiles and
cheery counsel. Thus encouraged he will pass
through the storms and conflicts of life and
come out more than conquerer. A man needs
a woman's love; his heart yearns for it, nor
will the love of a mother or sister supply the
need. Yet many seek for nothing further than
succes in housework, and to a sordid man,
this may be enough, but to a man of fine feel
ings vastly more is wanted.

FROM WILLIAMSBURG
WILLIAMSBURG, Blair Co., PA.,
January 23, 1874....
MR. EDITOR :—The new depot ,
at Williams
burg is about completed. A few nights ago
Mr. McKee, the engineer, gave the citizens the
privilege to have a hop in it. There were
about thirty-five ladies. The greater part ,of
them came in from different places. The
whole number of persons did not exceed one
hundred. The ladies were all rather hand
some ; a few very pretty ; most of them
dressed in black, which always makes a lady
look interesting. All did their best in dan
cing, and smiled their sweetest and best.
Will Kennedy and Wilson Greenland, of your
place, were in attendance and in their glory.
There were four musicians and one caller.
The music was vty good, if they had left the
outlandish noise away. Of course there was
no person drunk. Williamsburg is a very tem
perate place. A short time ago the ladies
went to all the saloons and requested the sa
loon keepers to sell no cider, so that at this
timo there is none in town. Any person com
ing to this place will be obliged to bring his
drink along or have a severe dry spell.
At 12 o'clock the party retired to the Widow
Paterson's for supper, where everything passed
off splendidly. While at supper, Mr. David
Fay took care of the depot and the fires.
Some of the carpenters were not invited to
the hop, and while the company was at supper
they nailed up the doors; and when the party
returned they tried to get in, but Mr. Fay in
formed them that they were nailed out. The
party got a sledge-hammer and burst the door
open, and the ball wect on until the cars
started for Hollidaysburg, at about 5 o'clock
in the morning. SPECTATOR.

tortions of the Railroad Compa-ies. With a history of

When we state that the farmers of the 'United
States, are the most cruelly oppressed class of our
whole country, we but express what must have
been evident, long ago, to every earnest, thinking
mind. To be convinced that such is the case,
one need but "go west," beyond Chicago, to
lowa, where the finest corn in the world is rais
ed, and then burned for fuel, because the Railroad
Monopolies will not carry it to market without ex
aCting the - enormous tariff, which compels the
farmer to give from three to three and a half car
loads of this product of his toil, to have one ear
load carried to market; and this role is applied
not only to corn but to all manner of farm produce
and stock, the "middlemen" absorbing all the pro
fits, leaving the producer n mere pittance. A
modified system of tariffs is applied to every part
of our land, of boasted liberty, until the burdens
that are fastened upon the people by the reckless
and unssrupulons curse of the great Railroad Mo
nopolies can be endured no longer, and the Grange
movement—the Order of the Patrons of llnabandry
—has been organized to unite the agricultural in
terests of the whole country, and plead the cause
of the farmer upon whose weal or woe, depends in
a great measure, the prosperity of the entire na
tion.
Industry has become conscious of its function ;
and the producers all over the land are organizing
to demand a recogniton. of their rights, and the
establishment of their industrial liberty. When
the political liberty of the people was curtailed,
they organized the revolution of 1776, and their
political slavery was removed and Liberty and In
dependence secured. To-day the producers of our
country's wealth find themselves greatly dependent
upon their industrial rulers for the pittance of
their productions which they are enabled to con-
trot ; and as this industrial serfdom is founded
upon legislative measures, by the same measures
must its freedom ha conquered. and the great in
dustrial army, conscious of its wrongs, is rising
in its might and will present a solid front to the
Monopolists, demand its accomplishment, and re
lief from their influences, which have debauched
and demoralized the Courts and Legislatures;
have bribed and taken into their pay high public
officials ; have robbed the nation of territory suf
ficient to constitute an empire; have flooded the
land with worthless stocks and other in -securities;
have set at defiance the laws of the land, and have
trampled upon individual and public rights and
liberties, and not satisfied with the rtiin they have
wrought, they propose to ask of the National
Legislature still greaterprivileges and means of
oppressing the people.
The work before tie abounds in the most start
ling disclosures. and giver a history of all these
wrongs and the means now being brought to bear
against there grasping corporations, which have
been controlling the whole country, and giving us
FO much trouble. It is a book of more than ordi
nary interest at this time, and must command a
large wile.

This Is the initial volume of the Aria oomplete,

this popular author, announced by the above nam
ed publishers. The volume before us is handsome
ly gotten up, and promises well for the forthcom
ing volumes if the set, Mr. ;Sennett was one of
the serial writers who arose to fame to the early
days of the New York Ledger, and became known
to the publlo by his "Prairie Flower." Ms wri
tings are too well known to all English-speaking
peoples, who have everywhere shown such full ap-
preciation of hit civil diseriPlUns of AMerlea . n
frontier life, to need commendation now. They
are full of incidents, and stirring adventures, and
contain a mine of valuable information, relating,
principally, however, to the scenery, people and
customs of Southern Border Life, noW either pass
ing or pureed away, and rapidly becoming matters
of tradition. If for no other reason, his stories
deserve to live in book form; but they have merit
suf f icient to preserve them, anal commend theta to
public favor, and insure for the series a large sale.
The Nureery is a monthly magazine for young
est readers, published by John L. Shorey in Bos
ton, at 51.50 per year; and if it were to root sever
al times that amount, we do not see how any
parent, having children to amuse or educate, could
afford to deprive them of the pleasure and profit
to be derived from its monthly numbers. Its beau
tiful pictures will educate the taste of the very
young children, and these, with the sprightly
discriptions will entertain and educate the minds
and eyes of those older in years. Let the children
have plenty of good literature, suited to their
wants, and they will show increased intelligence
in after yea..
