Fred Douglass lectured, on "John Brown,"
at Altoona, on Saturday night. The lecture
was well attended.
Johnstown has a saloon for every other in
habitant. At least it seemed so to us, judging
from the signs hung out.
Gen. John Williamson and Hon. David Blair
represented this county at the late Legislative
re-union at Harrisburg.
Huntingdon has her Orphan School scan
dal, and Altoona and gollidaysburg, not to be
outdone, have cock fights.
Fifty-three persons were received into the
Baptist Church, on Sunday evening last, by
the right hand of fellowship.
Petriken says they "knocked the bottom
out at Cassville." We knew they had reach
ed the bottom at Harrisburg.
Altoona is a poor place to while away the
time • between the Philadelphia Express and
the Fast Line east. We have tried it.
The Johnstown Voice was sold out, at Sher
iff sale, on Tuesday of last week. We heartily
sympathize with our friend Campbell.
The midnight ride of certain conspirators,
to Cassville, was a water haul. It may prove
a bad investment before it is all over.
We dropped down into Johnstown one day
last week, and found Swank. Easly and Hutch
inson of the Tribune in the best of trim.
Prof. Wickersham put in an appearance, at
Casscille, the other day. ' He is a quiet spec
tator during the sessions of the Committee.
John Carmon, of this place, died suddenly,
on Saturday last, of some throat affection. He
had only been prostrated about forty-eight
hours.
The Investigating Committee, after a session
of two nights and a day at Cassville, and a
half a day at this place, adjourned to meet
here on next Friday.
One hundred and nine persons have attach
ed themselves to the M. E. Church, in this
place, during the religious revival now in pro
gress in that church.
The laugh was on Petriken, the other day,
while Col. Thomas was clearing up the Spruce
Creek matter. Capt. Douglass might have
enlarged upon that subject.
The Logan House certainly is well furnish
ed and heated, but at the hour of midnight it
is not the most cheerful place, when you are
anxiously awaiting a train.
The communication, in the last Globe, from
Three Springs, sounds very much like the plea
of an attorney (?) for his client. It is a mo
tion in arrest of judgment, eh
The Johnstown Tribune is our authority for
the statement that Mr. D. S. Dunham is about
to sever his connection with the editorial
management of the Altoona Sun.
On Sunday last Rev. Mr. Hunter, of the
Baptist Church, of this place, baptized four
teen persons, making a total of forty in three
weeks. Hundreds witnessed the ceremony.
The report of the operations of the Hunting
don and Broad Top liAilroad will be found in
another column. The exhibit is pretty good.
We suppose it is running a little short at pre
sent.
The Police papers, from the Atlantic to the .
Pacific, are full of the Orphan School Scandal.
What a lot of gratuitous advertising I If there
is anything in notoriety the Professor ought
to reap it.
The gayest, wittiest, prettiest and most
frolicksome party of ladies we have seen or
heard, for many a long day, boarded the train
on Tuesday, of last week, sod took Conemaugh
by storm.
Our friend, Dr. Elinchman , of Cassville, was
determined to let thelnvestigating Committee
know that he occasionally visited the JOURNAL
office. Come again, Doctor, our latch-string
is always out.
The warm sun of Sunday and Monday
brought hosts of robins and blue birds. Pro
tect them. The most cruel thing that a man
or boy can do is to kill a bird. It ought to
be a high crime.
The "darks" who got up and slowly saun
tered out during Douglass' lecture, at Altoona,
on Saturday night, will not repeat the per
formance for sometime to come. "Small pots
are soon filled."
We are informed that our new carrier has
missed a number of our patrons. We are sorry
for this, and if they will leave their names at
the office, the matter will he corrected as near
as lies in our power.
pcu. Williamson made a speech at the Le
gislative re-union, at Harrisburg, last week,
in which he denounced the New Constitution
very severely. The General cannot reconcile
himself to the new order of things.
They have a railroad man named Baker, in
the neighborhood of Spruce Creek, who thinks
man is in good circumstances when he is
receiving a dollar and twelve cents a day and
tording himself and maintaining # sick wife.
We hope those indebted to us have not come
to the conclusion that we can run our business
and live without money? It takes a large
sum of money to run our business, and we are
not getting it. Come, friends, help us out. [tf
The West Huntingdon schools are taught
by Messrs. Sanderson and Foust, and Misses
Mary Grim and Ella Shoemaker. We would
like to know how they get along without de
cent black board surface and furniture? It
is time some interest were taken in the Com
mon Schools of Huntingdon.
The site of the Eagle Foundry post office, in
Tod township, has been changed from its pre
sent location to the Foundry, and Mrs. Han
nah Turrell arpointed postmistress, in place
of J. Griffith. It is said this will be a great
convenience to the community.
Robert Lott, who has been a faithful ser
vant in the employ of Col. John S. Miller, of
the Exchange, for many years, has concluded
to retire, and he and his family were enter
tained by his late employer with a handsome
supper on Saturday evening last.
Cassville was the Gibralter upon which the
prosecution, in the Guss cas',, was expected to
be dashed to pieces, hut Cassville was not
equal to the emergency. The hundreds who
were to he called faded away and were scat
tered as chaff before the wind. Cassville only
added strength to the prosecution.
If a man can come oat of a lecture room
just as his train of cars is moving off, thereby
giving him to understand that he has a chance
of taking a midnight train, two hours later,
without swearing. he must be a saint. We
tried this the other night at Altoona, and
confess that we were not equal to the occasion.
We visited the new school house, in West
Huntingdon, a few days ago, and were aston
ished that it was not built after any of the
improved models for school houses. What in
the world induced the Board of School Direc
tors to expend so much money without con
sulting the best models of school architec
ture ?
A charge of bigamy was lodged against Dr.
Alleman. of Petersburg, late of Saxton, Bed
ford county, one day last week. He was com
mitted, to answer, in default of bail. It is
alleged that lie has one wife at Saxton and
another in the neighborhood of Williamsburg,
Blair county. We know nothing in regard to
the merits of the case.
About one hundred and fifty persons were
sworn, in behalf of Guss at Cassville, at the
late session of the Committee at that place.—
The object was to contradict witnesses and to
prove that Guss was a remarkably moral man.
ft was always done, however, with the reser
vation that "if the reports concerning him
were correct he would be a very unfit man to
control the school."
The will of Hon. B. Bucher Swoope was
filed and admitted to probate in the office of
Register Gray, Pittsburgh, yesterday morning.
The will bears the date of 1865, and is witness
ed by W. Radebaugh and A. A. Adams, citi
zensof Clearfield borough. The deceased be
queaths all of his property to his wife, Susanna.
P. Swoope, and appoints her executrix. Ile
requests that his library be preserved intact,
and given to that one of his sons who, in the
judgment of his wife, will use it best. The
deceased had his life insured for $5,000 in the
Penn Mutual Company, of Philadelphia. The
will is written by Mr. Swoope's own hand.—
Altoona Tribune, of February 27.
Josh Billings gives a remarkably just defi
nition of a country newspaper editor : "An
editor iz a male being whose biziness tz to
navigate a ooze paper. He writes editorials,
grinds out poetry, inserts detbs and weddings,
sorts out manuskripts, keeps a waste basket,
blows up the 'devil,' steals matter, fites other
people's battles, sells his paper for a dollar
and fifty cents a year, takes white beans and
apple sass for pay when lie can get it, raizes
a large family, works nineteen hours out of
every twenty-four, knows no Sunday, gits
damned by everybody, and Snce in a while
wbipt bi sumbody, lives poor, dies middle-aged
and often -broken-hearted, leaves no money,
and iz rewarded for a life or toil with a short
but free obituary pull' in the nuze papers."
HUNTINGDON AND BROAD TOP RAlL
noAn.—The annual report of the stockholders
of the Huntingdon and Broad Top Railroad
Company has just been published. The total
receipts in 1873 were $431,107 and the expen
ses 241,102, giving the net earnings $190,005,
being an increase in net earnings in 1873 of
$66,170. The opening of communication
through to the Cumberland coal region, by way
of the Bedford and Bridgeport extension, is
looked to as likely to very considerably in
crease its coal tonnage as well as passenger
business. In the past year, which is the first
of the through business, it shows a Cumber
land coal tonnage of nearly 124,000 tone, and
a total coal tonnage of G 17,237 tons, against
449,748 tons in 1872, an increase of a little
over 35 per cent. We notice in the report, as
against the $431,107 of receipts, $281,467 of
"extraordinary expenses which have been met
by the earnings of the road (after paying in
terest on first and second mortgages, scrip,
etc.,) and by temporary loans, sales of stock,
and bills payable." Among the extraordinary
expenditures, and which are more or less per
manent improvements and fairly chargeable
to capital account, are $121,468 for new loco
motive and cars, $68,967 for rails, etc., $34,-
536 for new rails around Saxton, etc., $17,268
for bridges and trestles,sl3,s4B for cross-ties,
$7,561 for station buildings, $9,029 for new
machinery for shops and $5,505 for new houses
for employees. These expenditures are be
lieved to have been judicious, and show that
the policy of progressive improvement adopted
by the company some two years ago is contin
ued. The old floating debt of the company of
nearly $400,000 has been almost entirely ex
tinguished, and a large portion of the road has
been rebuilt. In reference to the consolidated
third mortgage bonds of the company, on
which interest has been suspended for several
years, the report expresses the opinion that a
resumption of payment of interest may begin
after October Ist next ; that is, upon the con
version of the remainder of the overdue and
maturing coupons up to and including those
falling due at that date—all accruing interest
thereafter ou said bonds can be regularly paid
—so says the report. The second mortgage
bonds of the company, amounting to $367,500,
mature next year, and arrangements are now
making to extend them. Besides its road the
company owns about 2,500 acres including
some of the best tracts in the region. The
business and financial situation of the com
pany are steadily improving. The annual
meeting washeld on the 4th ult., when the old
officers were re-elected.—/farrgburg Patriot.
To VIE PUBLIC.— The Iluntingdon Car
Works.—ln connection with the building of

The Song of the Pick.
BE DENNIS O.RAFFERTY.
Assimble, ye sons of the muses,
Bedecked wid yer garlands of roses,
Nor turn up yer swate classic nose.
Suspictin some wild Irish thrick ;
Let Longfellow sing of Sandalphon,
And Saxe raise a laugh wid his tall fun,
But knock the throtters from all soon
Wid me cowl-shtirrin Song of the Pick.
CHUM' :—Pick, pick, pick,
l,et Paddy, whin weary and sick,
Sit down on his ear, and banish despair
Wid Wltafferty's "Song of the l'ick."
Whin fancy, the shprightly young fellow,
Displays Napes of goold bright and yellow,
Dug out of a mountain so mellow,
Wid joy the beholder is sick ;
And thin, to thrace cut the connection,
Procade in the proper direction,
Go up to O'Dougherty's section
And see the great works of the pick.
Cuonos—Pick, pick, pick,
The sowljeer may boast of the sabre,
The pishtol's unmannerly neighbor;
But shore he's opposed to hard labor,
Ile'd faint at the sight of a pick;
'Tis airy to shpout about fightin,
For murther some paple delight in,
But how his poor sowl it would, frighten
To ax him to handle a pick.
CHORUS—Pick, pick, pick,
New railroads its fiver ereatin,
The cowl of the nation elatin,
The wants of the counthry its math,
And who does the diggin, aviek ?
The Dutchman yell find iver ready,
To tinder yer goings unshteady ;
' But where do ye find honest Paddy?
Why, at the rear find of a pick.
Ceoat - s—Piek, pick, pick,
Ah ! yis, it's a weapon of power,
At pri,ent quotations of flour,
• And labor cut down to eight hours
A man becomes opulent quick;
Wid granebacks excadingly
T'tl wager a dollar to twinty,
He'll soon buy a tin-dollar shanty.

LET US HAVE A NEW SCHOOL HOUSE.
—The time has fully come when the people of
Huntingdon need a better school house. The
old school house on "the hill," that has been
doing service for so many years as a public
school building, has become too small and
unlit for school purposes. It will soon be ab
solutely necessary either to tear down and
build greater, or to refuse school privileges to
many of our children. To prove the above by
the inexorable logic of facts, we respectfully
submit the following
There are enrolled, and actually attending
school on "the hill," 495 pupils, distributed
in 7 rooms, as follows
In Primary School, No. 4, 91 pupils,
" No. 3. 90 "
I 4 4: " No. 2, 7O d
" No. 1, 66 "
" Intermediate School, 68 "
" Grammar " No. 2, 50 "
" Grammar " No. 1 and High
School, (both seated in one room), 60 "
From the above statement it will be seen
that in no room are less than 50 pupils, and
in some rooms almost double that number.
From it also will readily be inferred the fact
that but very few more pupils can possibly be
admitted, and not any more with justice either
to teachers or pupils. What shall be done?
Shall we go on for years yet endeavoring to
"keep school" under most unfavorable circum
stances, or shall we have a first class school
building, and a system of Public Schools,
well graded, of which Iluntingdon may justly
be proud? Let the people answer.
There is no object that should be so sacred
to the heart of any people as the proper edu
cation of their children. Indifference in the
matter is highly culpable. The parent who is
willing to have his children confined six hours
daily, in a small, dark, badly furnished, un
ventilated room, acquiring a hatred for school,
regarding it as prison, and sowing the seeds of
disease that may hurry them to a premature
grave, is still more culpable. Let not the de•
sire to save a few dollars make any of us con
tent with such a state of affairs. The people
are generally satisfied if no serious complaints
are made of Principal or teachers. More than
this is desirable. Such facilities are needed
as will enable Principal and teachers to make
school more attractive to pupils than the
street corners or skating pond; so that no
longer the pupil goes "dragging his slow
length along" to school, but goes with haste
and a cheerful heart to a place where he loves
to , be. To make school thus attractive is en
tirely possible under favorable circumstances,
but almost or quite impossible, where pupils
are crowded together in badly-furnished and
unattractive rooms. Besides, every school
year should close with a public examination
to which the patrons of the school and the
public should be invited, to learn what ad
vancement the schools are making. It is im
possible to make such an examination an en
tire success now, for the reason that we have
no room to accommodate the public. Give
us a new and larger house with some accom
odations for visitors and public exercises, and
the Public Schools of Huntingdon shall be a
credit to the place. We believe the people
only need the necessity of better school
facilities properly brought to their notice to
cause them to act, and so we earnestly urge
them to consider their highest and best inter
ests and ACT. Let the people speak, and our
School Directors must act. The schools of
Huntingdon have improved much within the
last three years, but there is room for still
greater improvement. Let us have it.
How TIIEY DO THE THINGS IN HUN
TINGDON.-When a friend arrives iu town, a
purse is raised and a negro is dispatched
across the river to the brewery. Heads keep
bobbing around the different corners until the
negro, with a mysterious looking keg on his
shoulder, Loves is sight. The initiated ones
then make for the appointed rendezvous, the
uninitiated, who have began to "smell a rat,"
from noticing the long and anxious gazes fix
ed upon the opposite shore, bide their time
and follow the negro. Everyman in Hunting
don carries a spigot in his clothes and the thing
is "busted" open quicker than it takes us to
tell it. There is - generally enough of the good
thing to go around,—another "shad scale" is
raised, another negro is dispatched, and so
the thing goes. No matter what alleywayyou
enter, empty kegs stare you in the face.—

THE marksmen of Huntingdon county
are becoming aroused. Two of their number,
renowned for their skill in the use of the rifle,
have challenged the crack shots of Cambria
and Blair to shoot at mark ou some day which
may be esteemed mutually satisfactory, and
we understand the challenge has been accept.
ed. The names of the participants in the af
fair will be recorded hereafter. It is likely
that the shooting will be done at the Summit
or Fountain Inn, and a large crowd will doubt
less be attracted to the appointed spot to wit
ness the sport. Just at present, Blair county
is ahead on the question of the "champion
ship," but we confidently expect that the belt
will be wrested from tier in this tilt, and it
would not astonish us if some Cambria county
marksman would walk off with the badge.—

QUICK-SELLING BOOK—AGENT WANT
ED.—No book of late issue has been so heart

the press and those most competent to pass
judgment on it, as the Historical Novel, "Old
Fort Duquesne ;" or "Capt. Jack, the Scout,"
written by Charles McKnight, Esq., editor of
the Pittsburg. Illustrated PEOPLES' MONTHLY.
Notwithstanding the panicky times, it has al
ready reached its fourth edition, and is run
ning like Wilde-fire. It is a genuine, through
and through, PENNSTLYANIA book—live from

written Historical Notes. A work of five hun
dred pages, tinted paper, well illustrated, bev
elled boards—all book men say an honest work
at the price, s2.so—sold only by subscription,
or sent to any post paid, on receipt of the
price. Captain Jack, the hero, was a verita
ble border-ranger of Pennsylvania, known all
along the frontier, and noted for his daring
and recklessness as an Indian tracker and
killer. No "sensational" novel, but a sterling
library book, full of thrilling adventure and
personal exploit. Good Agents are fleeting
with remarkable success on this book, and a
general agent, on big commission, for this coun

3IEMORIA3I.—At a regular stated
meeting of United Brothers' Lodge, No. 176,
1. 0. 0. F., of Pa., held on Saturday evening,
February 14th, the undersigned committee was
appointed to draft resolutions in memory of
our late Brother, Miles Davison, and report at
next meeting of the Lodge. • We, therefore,
beg leave to report as follows
WHEREAS, In the decease of Brother Davison
his disconsolate and afflicted wife has lost a kind
and affectionate husband, our Lodge a true and
efficient member, and the community a good and
upright citizen; to this dispensation of Providence
we bow in humble submission, and as a testimoni
al of respect to the memory of our late Brother we
offer the following resolutions:
let. That we deeply sympathize with the widow
and relatives of the deceased, and especially do we
ask that the blessing of Him who is able to dry up
all tears, to pour the balm of consolation into the
wounded heart, be extended to her who sorrows
most, in this the time of her distress.
2nd. That the lodge room be draped in mourn
ing, and that the members of our lodge wear the
usual badge of mourning, for the space of thirty
days, as a. mark of respect to the memory of our
beloved Brother.
3rd. That a copy of these resolutions be pre
sented to the widow of our deceased Brother, and
that the same be publi•hed in Too HUNTINGDON
JOURNAL and the Monitor.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
FROM THE LOWER END.
Emote JOURNAL :—ln your paperof the 11th
of February, the Report of the Alms-house,
is reported, examined, audited and found to
be correct, which no doubt is the case, after
some little explanation is had. The statement
or account sets forth and shows every arti
cle bought and sold, which is just what it
should do, and just what everybody interested
tri the affairs of the County expects to find,
but for some reason the articles named under
item "Deductions" amounting to $2,110.47 do
not appear in the general accounts, which
show that the $2,110.47 be deducted from
the receipts to support the institution leaving
$9,516.26 instead of $11,626.73 as the expen
ses for the year. As the above has been pub
lished, I will ask if the articles set forth in
the item "Deductions" have not been a source
of expense ? The purchase of a reaper, thresh.
ing machine, paying interest, keeping paupers,
making post and rail fence, building meat
house, limeing the land, buying cows to feed
the inmates, &c., &c., I would like to know
why the above articles should not be counted
in the expense account? A farm cannot be
conducted without the necessary machinery,
and if said articles have beets bought for the
use of the farm, it seems to be all right—and
if not sold and still on the farm and belong to
the County, take the place of that much
cash in the treasury. To make such a state
ment as is set forth in item "Deductions,"
seems to be absurd; and further the account
shows in the expense of the farm, that Samuel
Wilson was paid for burning lime $39.43, and
in the item "Deductions" 4,000 bushels lime
$160.00, are asked to be deducted from the
expense account; if the County paid for lime
burning the farm isjust worth that much more,
and the produce of the farm may be benefited
twice as much more than the expenses, and
so it is with every article purchased for the
purpose of carrying on the operations of the
farm. As set forth in the item "Deductions"
no one can find fault with such improvements
and investments, the difference is the County
has property instead of cash. The same as
anybody having a farm.
But further the last charge in item "Deduc
tions" is for land sold to Dr. Royer & Co.,
for $276.00 which amount is added to articles
bought and stated as a deduction in favor of
expenses. This part of the play seems to be
strange, and shows a strange system of bookeep
ing, that places goods sold and goods bought
under the same bead. It isjust simply this, the
whole amount set forth in item "Deductions" is
unnecessary. If the items were all bought
and placed on one side and those sold on the
other, the result will show, just as it should
-without any explanations or deductions.

History of the Bible ; From the Creation of the
World to the close of the Apostolic Era; being
a full and complete account of the events narra
ted in the Sacred Scriptures, by William Smith,
L. L. D. 71105 pages,.B . co.., 250 engravings and
maps. (tiatimial - Ptiblishing Co.,
We need say nothing of Dr. Smith as a writer of
Biblical literature. His fame extends all over the
whole civilized world, and he is everywhere recog
nised as one of the most conscientious, faithful
and competent historians, and one of the most
profound classical scholars of the day. All relig
ious denominations accept and endorse his state
ments, and all watch with eagerness for the ap
pearance of his books. He deals with the facts of
Sacred History, and discards all sectarian discus
sions. Ile wfites for the whole Christian World,
and not for any particular denomination. His
"Dictionary of the Bible has had the unprece
dented sale of over. 250,000 copies in the United
States alone.
His master-piece, however, is "The Illustrated
History of the Bible," in which he sums up all the
results of his profound studies, enriched with the
wealth of his great genius as a writer. His book
is not ephemeral, but will live as long as the En
glish language is spoken, and will always hold its
place as the great History of the Bible. It is
brilliant in style, profound in thought and re
search, interesting and entertaining. Ile carries
us from the creation of the World, to the death of
St. John, the Evangelist, relating the whole Bible
Story. and making plain its connection with con
temporaneous events in secular history. He opens
to us a wealth of romance. beauty and dramatic
interest, which will surprise even the constant
readers of the Holy Book, and will enable them to
read with increased interest, and derive more
pleasure and profit from their reading.
To this magnificent work of Dr. Smith, is added
an abridgement of Dean Milman's great History
of the Jews. In this we are given a thrillingnar
rative of the terrible siege of Jerusalem by Titus,
and the destruction of the Temple, the dispersion
of the Jews, their frantio efforts to regain their
Holy City, and their wanderings and persecutions
in strange lands. This is a valuable addition to
the work, for no one can rightly understand the
prophecies relating to the Jews, and the utterances.
of the Saviour concerning them, unless acquainted
with this portion of their history, for it is here
that we must seek for the fulfilment of those
prophecies.
Every reader of the Bible encounters difficulties
in his attempts to comprehend its historical por
tions, and is compelled to make constant refer
enceto cemmentariee in order to obtain satisfac
tion. This volume is designed to remove these
difficulties and make plain the history, manners,
customs, laws, observances and geography of the
Holy 'Land. The publishers have done good ser
vice to the cause of religious literature by the pub
lication of this valuable work. The book will be
supplied here by Mr. S. S. Place. It is sold only
by Subscription. Agents wanted in every county.
The Atlantis for March is as good a number of
that sterling periodical as has yet appeared. It
opens with Ralph heeler's remarkable narrative
of "Owen Brown's Escape from Harper's Ferry,"
which will have special interest since the myste
floes disappearance of its author, whom it is be
lieved has been murdered on board a Spanish
steamer. The story is new to the public, and the
more interesting because it revives, with tragic
picturesqueness, the mad attempts of the "immor
tal John Brown." Other papers of marked inter
est will be found in this number. The Poetry is
of a high class. The Essays are upon subjects of
scientific and social interest. This magazine and
Every Saturday have certainly lost nothing by
their late change to the "Riverside Press," of Hurd
& Houghton. The first chapters of a new story
of great power entitled, "Far from the Maddening
Crowd," have already been published in Every
Saturday, which was attributed to George Eliot, I
but now known to be by Thomas Hardy,who prom- 1 1
ises to be a new light among novelists. (Hurd do
Houghton, Boston.)
Scribner's, for March, opens with a continuation
of the "Great South," by an attractive and pro
fusely illustrated paper by Mr. Edward King, on
the Mountains of Western North Carolina.
These papers have, since their commencement
in this magazine, added greatly to its val
ue. They not only describe, but illustrate a
portion of our country, about which comparatively
little has been known, especially in the North.
Ir. Robinson discourses on the Women of the
Arabs; and there Is an interesting bit of history
in the account of the Heiress of Washington: John
Stewart Mill is calmly dissected in the paper en
titled "Autobiography of an Atheist." This and
the history of "The Credit Mobilier" are the most
striking contribntions to the number. (Scribner
A Co., N. Y.)
10760
Si...Vadat, which has been now forfive months
the joy of the young folks, in its March number
introduces to them their great benefactor, Edward
Jenner, the inventor of vaccination, which is ac
companied by an engraving of his statue,showing
how it was then performed. It would be impossi
ble to give a satisfactory description of this num
ber of St. Nicholas, which stands without a rival,
and improves with each issue. We cannot too
highly recommend it to our patrons. (Scribner &
& Co., N. Y.)
Since the happiness of so many ladies is greatly
dependent upon having the latest fashions and
styles of dress, it is a. wonder that any one should
attempt to get along without Godey's Lady's Book,
which is the authority upon matters of taste and
f a shion. A. i; odcy, Philadelphia.)
The Science of Betllth, for March, is an excel
lent number. It contains among other useful ar
ticles a paper from the pen of Mrs. rlizabeth
Dudley on "The Mother's Moulding Work" which
discusses a highly important question in an ad
mirable way, and should be road with care by
every mother. The magazine is always well filled
with useful hygienic suggesstions, and matter of
great interest to all. (5. It. Wells, S. Y.)
P. P. D.
The Re••pd,;ic clisuusaea dispassionately the most
difficult problems of Statesmanship, rkud continues
to advocate a bold and progressive policy upon
all public questions—purel'• Republican in sentir
went. It contains an appendix Which hives sev
eral of the ablest speenhai of Congressmen during
ea c h month. (Republic Co., Washington.)
OW and .NeT, for March, contains much good
reading, come striking poetry, and some reason
able and instrnctive papers op social subjects ; Ip
the introduction .I,lr. littio venture:la r.e.tommenda
lion, that it should be made the regular business
of the churches to conduct, each in its own dis-
trict, the "out-door poor. relief" business. The
plan is a possible one, but, with the present con
flicting opinions in religious matters we fear the
friends of the system would not be able to realize
the fulfillment of their plane. If it were possible
to arouse the Church of Christ to a realization of
its duty in this, perhaps the greatest question of
social order, and address itself with vigor to the
work of out-door relief, it might be made a remedy
for pauperism and crime, especially in crowded
cities and towns, and relieve the civil authorities
of one of its most knotty and difficult enterprises.
There are many good things in Old and Neer that
are well worth the reading, and new attractions
are constantly being Aded. (F. B. Perkins,
Business Agent, Boston.)

gold loans the rates have been 3@3%. and 4 per cent. for
carrying. Prime bankers have reduced their rates for
eterling bills to 483 3 /A487% respectively - , with business
in second hands even lower.
In the money market lenders have to make an effort to
fully employ their funds, and this because with the present
volume of business and absence of anything like specula
tion at the stock exchange there is a reduced demand for
money. There is little mercantile paper making, and the
best names are quoted at sto 131 , 1 i, and are hard to get.
Government bonds have been steady. Southern elate
bonds at the board were dull and a fraction lower.
The stock market was firm during the half hour of bus
