The Huntingdon Journal. Wednesday Morning, April I, 1374 , khiN,; MATTER ON EVERY PAGE, I.WAL AND PERSONAL. Brief Mention—Home-made and Stolen. It is said that the Burgess of Alexandria talks of resigning. All those who more to-day are not April fools by a long run. What does everybody not want to be to day? An April fool. Shoats aro said to be worth forty cents per bristle, in Porter township. Who is the lady, that uses tobacco in church, while the minister is preaching. The individual who now earrias a few pounds of hotter along the street runs a gauntlet. "Chrisley" proposes Sodomites as a very appropriate name for the followers of tike "Professor.- It is said to have required considerable spirits to get up the Guss demonstration the other night. , "Hard to write local items when there ain't any. Don't it." The Standard is responsible for this happy witticism, The death of 51r. 13isbin, of Alexandria, makes the office of constable vacant. Who will he his successor? Wanted—Two female teachers to take charge of primary schools in Huntingdon. Address Alexander Port, Secretary. Dr. James D. Noble, of Pattonsville, son of Hon. Joseph B. Noble, of Waterside, Bedford county, died very suddenly last week. Lost and found again, itr. P. K. Harnish's pocket book. This is an evidence that there are still honest men in the community. The bridge on Fourth street will soon be ready for use again. It was badly in need of repair. It is now being completely overhauled. Our young friend, H. L. Colder, of Alexan dria, has been quiteill for a week or two with an attack of billions fever. He is about again. The man who reads - a newspaper, year in and year out, inset think the publishers are April fools. The boot may possibly be on the other leg. Rev. James C. Johnston. of this place, bas been sent up among our friends at Schells burg, Bedford county. We be speak for him apleasant ytar. A grand indignation meeting, it is reported, was held at Cassville, on Mcnday evening last. Guss, we suppose, poured out his grievances by the bucketful. The Rev. J. D. Thomas, of the Center Union church, in Oneida township, administered baptism, on last Sunday morning. It drew a large crowd of spectators. Capt. Dwainell is homo- and will remain until the 7th inst., when the Legislature will meet again. The Captain is an excellent member, always at his post. Rev. J. D. Pennypacker has been assigned, by the Conference, to Mifflintawn. We con gratulate the Reverned .gentlemau on his transfer to the Juniata Valley. Some politicians have a queer way of out flanking the local paper that made them. Respectfully referred to No. 300 Penn • street. Guess we can't "pass" that bill. We wish somebody would send us a few of the mean tricks that can be laid to the ac count of Hollidaysburg. We want to publish them to get even with the Standard. The Broad Top Company are whitewashing the bridges along the line of their road. Whitewash is a' good thing—it makes the most unsightly things look cheerful. Insurance companies generally know a thing or two. They don't like to take too large risks on worthless property, especially when the proprietor is a man of doubtful character. On last Tuesday evening, in Alexandria, while the people were eagerly looking over the Jouaxei, an old gentleman stepped up and inquired, “what is the news V' A half dozen voees replied, "Dennis O'Rafferty's Goose!" There were over one hundred and sixty conversions at the M. E. Church, in this place, during the late revival. The meeting was kept up almost three months. The labor was very severe but our friend McMurray was equal to it. A Porter township subscriber whishes to know what the sexton thought when Le saw the minister cleaning the dust off the pulpit before commencing his sermon. We refer the inquiry to the sexton. "Get up and dust" your pulpits. Rev. A. W. Decker, of the NI. E Church, located at New Bloomfield, Perry county, spent several days with no last week. He is a popular preacher and a whole team. He talks of erecting a fine residence in West Huntingdon. A correspondent says, Mr. James Piper has built a new slaughter hoase in Porter town ship, and that it is a good idea. He thinks it will be a good place for the "rats" of the township and the gross mice of Alexandria to congregate. Dr. B. B. Hamlin has been appointed Pre siding Elder of the Harrisburg district in place of Dr. Mitchel transferred to the Wil liamsport district. We congratulate our es timable friend, the Doctor, on his accession to the Eldership again. Deputy Superintendent Houck, of the School Department, was promptly on the ground at. Casscille, on last Thursday to take charge of the Orphan School in the name of the State authorities. The boys were not skedaddled, by the man who went out with colors flying. Mr. John Bisbin, of Alexandria, whom we noticed in the last JOURNAL as having revived a stroke of paralysis, died on the 19th ult., in the 78th year of his age. He bad been con stable of Alexandria borough for many years and died loved and respected by everybody. We have an eighty dollar Sewing Machine that we will give to any young lady who will raise us eighty new subscribers that will pay within the year at the rate of $2 per subscriber. Here is a chance. This ought to be done in two or three townships we can name, without. mach effort. tf. The Methodist Episcopal Conference which . : adjourned, at Altoana, on last Tuesday, ad journed to meet in Huntingdon, in neat March. Just think of it, Huntingdon gets the next Conference; no wonder there has been such a grand jubilee among the poultry for the last week, and eggs are as plenty, as flies in August. Whoop! Harm for Huntingdon ! IFe mein to go to Conference then, too. The Altoona Tribune goes for the Hunting.; don County Agricultural Society and the fluntingdoa Fire Company for not paying* over a prize of $lOO due the Vigilant Steam Fire Cprupany of Altoona. We thought this money' was paid overt What's the matter? The, Firemen assure us that they have nothing to do with •it. Why don't the Agricultural So ciety pay it ? Here is. an Alexandria conundrum : "Sambo ise got a eonumdrum for you." "All right ; lets tab it." "What is de differ ence between de Woods rats, and de warf rats ?" "I can see through dat without my specks ; de Woods rats lase dare pocket books while de warf rats have none to lose." "Dat is not de answer." "Den I gives it up." "Well you see de Woods rats try to get posi tion in de Poor House, wile de warf rats try to get dem in de ware house." Guss AND LYTLE ON TILE RAMPAGE —A Large Amount of Spirits Assembled—A Ludicrous Serenade—Was It a Sell 7—Ou last Wednesday evening, (expatiates our reporter), occurred in our town, one the most laugha ble farces, we have ever witnessed., Some of Guss' parasites started the story that the in vestigating committee bad reported, and de clared him innocent. The "bummers" of the town, who have found the Prostitutor a very agreeable companion, decided upon a sere nade, the main purpose, it is said, being the hope that Guss would be flattered into pro viding free whiskey to soak their dry skins. On a promise to pay for the music, the band was secured, and brought round at half past nine to the Professor's dwelling. While the band played the Professor threw open his doors, windows and parlors, and invited his intimate friends to come in. The Prostitutor's elegant sofas, and cushioned arm chairs were soon occupied. We noticed the Professor's right hand supporter Art. Mac. enjoying the luxurious occasion, near him Cm Brandt smiled out of fie window, and in a corner in a somewhat collapsed condition was Peter Marion Lytle. Others of like ilk were sitting and standing round. The gamin were directed to call for Lytle when the music ceased, and after an awk ward pause; Peter Marion came forth to the porch. On account of a swellng upon his tongue, his utterance was much impeded, but by great effort, he succeeded in talking for a quarter of an hour. The burden of the ad dress was to prove that the Professor had mon ey enough to pay his bills, and that was the true test of humanity the Professor must be a good man. The speaker seemed to be so deeply impressed with the guilt of the Pro fessor that he could not help confessing it in an indirect nay, frequently in his remarks, but concluded with the declaration that the Professor could get to heaven yet, for had not Abraham (of the Scriptures) gotten there af ter being convicted of sinful practices? The speaker, in the course of his remarks, got to musing, in a general way, about himself, and wondered what all he might do and buy, if he were to be a thief. Tn the midst of his imag inative flight, the thought evidently flashes upon his mind that his hearers might know of "the small balance due fluntingdon county," and perhaps some had proteited checks in their pockets, besides other things that might raise in their minds, and the way he dropped that subject, and struck for a more agreeable one, was very amusing. Calls were made by the gamin, for several persons, but the great Professor himself, came forward of his own accord, and asked to be heard. De commenced by recounting his trials in starting the Cassville School, and as the appropriations were increased, his great success. He then unloaded his vials of wrath upon everybody, and especially upon General Beath and the Legislative .Committee. lie then touched upon the witnesses, and said he was convicted upon the testimony of five scholars, and six employes of the school. lie afterwards, however, agreed that McEldon - ny had told the truth about his kissing one of the girls, and spent five minutes in ridiculing, in a jocular way, the idea of there being any harm in his kissing a girl ; "kissing a girl, why ain't that awful," he said. When it is remem bered that this girl was past sixteen, and was kissed by Lim in the ironing room, when alone, the admission was damaging, and no doubt will be denied hereafter, as it has been in the past, as bitterly as the other charges. The Professor went on to make many assertions and charges, that were knows to be untrue by the spectators, one of which was that the citizens of this town (he excepted the Demo crats and Woodsites) had never given a meal or a night's entertainment to the Soldiers' Orphans. This was grossly false, as all know that for several years, the orphans were wel comed with true hospitality by those citizens, and up to the time the people became con vinced that the Professor was too much of a brute to receive their slighest recognition, and then they were forced to relinquish very un willingly their attentions to the orphans, to save contact with this vile man having them in charge. W. H. Woods was then called, but declined to say anything, except that the Committee, although set up by Speaker Mc- Cormick for the purpose of convicting Mr. Gass, had failed to do so. Calls were made for others, but them being no response the "bummers" declared the meet ing closed. The "bummers" were seen as late as next noon staggering aroundtrying to work off the effects of the meeting. But, 0 ! the sequel ! The awful sequel On Thursday morning the report of the Com mittee came to town, containing the verdict that there was enough "unimpeached testi mony to justify the Committee in believing that the conduct of A. L. Guss, Principal, was of an improper character," and recommending the removal of the school ; and that the Leg islature had immediately acted upon the report, and ordered the removal at once. The query now is, was the serenade in earnest, or a sell? CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA CONFER ENCE.—The following are the appointments of the Central Pennsylvania Conference of the M.

All matter pertaining to this department should be addressed to P. O. Box 12, Huntingdon. Claxton, Remsen and llaffelfinger, Philadelphia, have become the publishers of the ''Field Practice of Laying out Circular Curves for Railroads," and "A New Method of Calculating the Cubic Con tents of Excavations and Embankments by the Aid of Diagrams, together with Directions for Es timating the Cost of Earthwork," both by John C. Troutwine, new editions of each of which are now in preparation. In this connection we desire to call attention to a recant work from the same pub lishers, by Stephen Roper, Engineer; entitled "A Catechism of lligh Pressure, or Non-Condensing Steam Engines," including the modeling, con structing, running a- d management of steam en gines and steam boilers, profusely illustrated, and containing a vocabulary. This is one of the most useful manuals that has fallen into our hands in a long time. Open it when you will, andyou will be sure to find things to learn that you did not know before. It is of special value to engineers, and men who are employed about steam engines, and every such person should have a copy a' hand. 19 mo., 222 pages, $1.75. Our readers will be pleased to learn that the Seribners ha're secured, for serial publication in their magazine, the story by M. Jules Verne, now appearing in the Magazin D'Etlacation et tie Re creation, entitled "The Mysterious Island," in which the author undertakes to show how a body of men, thrown helpless upon a desert island, may develop a living from purely scientific resources, without any convenient wreck to draw upon for the materials of life and comfort. It is commenced in the April number and will be continued through out the year. The illustrations will be profuse, and from the original plates ; and the chapters will be issued simultaneously with their appear ance in Paris. Lippincott'. Magazine, the handsomest of the American monthlies, and as interesting and enter taining as it is handsome, greatly pleases us in its late numbers. The March number opens with one of Edward Strahan's illuerrated papers describing ajourney from "Paris to Marty by way of the Rhine," which is continued by another chapter in the April number. In each number these articles are followed by choice papers of social andliterary interest, poetry and serials. George MacDonald's story, Malcolm, has reached the sixteenth chapter, and increases in interest. The several depart ments are well sustained, and full of entertain ment. We desire to aid in having this favorite monthly sustained, and now agree to receive, at lowest club rates—s3.oo each—any number of sub scriptions. Address this office. We are in reseipt of a new pleasure in the Great Weettra 3ronthlll, which commenced its career, with the beginning of the present year, and we hope it may prove as useful as these first numbers would indicate, and its high aim be sustained. This is another Pennsylvania magazine, published in Philadelphia, though devoted to the interests of the people of the whole country. It not only embodirs'new features, but is an entirely new fea ture throughout. Its field fur usefulness is large, if it embraces all that its name would indicate. It is to be devoted to Science, Art and Agriculture, and to be independent. In matters of Science, it promises to apply old truths, and new discoveries of scientific men, to man's every day wants. In Agriculture it expects to embrace within its scope everything that shall be of interest and value to those engaged in that important branch of our in dustries. Terms, 53.00 per . year; 30 cents per number. (Great Western Publishing Co., 302 Walnut Street.) S , rihner's Monthly, fur April, contains the open ing chapters of "The Mysterious Island," byJules Verne. The story is profusely illustrated, and promises as much ingenuity and interest as the former writings of this famous:lather. In Edward King's continuation of the Great South we are treated this time to a "Ramble in Virginia." The same author also contributes a poem on the death of Parepa-Rosa, which must be admired by all who read it. The paper which will att:act the most attention from the pen of Augustus Blau velt, on "Christ's Resurrection Scientifically Con sidered," which oecupies t wen ty-two pages. Among the remaining contents are papers of interest on various subjects. (Scribner A Co., N. V.) Adana,: Mowhig, for April, in addition to its recent improvements, has now caught the inspira tion which the spring has brought, and this month, is more than usually attractive in the variety and quality of its contents; varied as they arc from grave to gay, from lively to serene. The poems are by E. C. Steadman, C. P. Crunch, Elizilbeth Stewart Phelps, and others, and arc of the reada ble kind. David A. Wells discusses the currency question, and exposes the fallacy of an irrcdceina able paper currency. Every department is full and interesting. No one can go amiss by sub scribing for the Atlantic. (11. 0. Houghton do Co., Boston.) 1,161 94,264 .109,663 ... 15,399 St. Mewing, which is acknowledged to bathe best and handsomest youth's magazine ever pub , lished, sill continues under the abl, editorship of' Mrs. Mary Mapes Dodge. The April number ' contains thirty-six illustrations, and many articles on topics sure to interest and instruct the young, by such writers as Donald G. Mitchell, Elizabeth Stewart Phelps, T. T. Trowbridge, Celia Thaxter, T. B. Aldrich, Frank R. Stockton, and others. (Scribner & Co., N. Y.) The Sanitarian has removed from William St. to 234 Broadway, opposite the Post Office. The April number commences a new volume, and comes to us greatly improved and with a very at tractive table of contents. Drainage for Health , Concerning College Life, Warming and Ventilation, Water, Nitrous Oxide Gas, Artificial Feeding of Children, are among some of the articles. The last named, itself, is worth many times the coat of the annual subscription price, wherever there are children to feed, and there arc few places exempted from their presence. ("Sanitarian," N. 1 ) The Phrenological Journal, in all scatters of progress, occupies the front rank, even greatly in advance of more pretentious periodicals. Every number contains interesting texts enough from which to fill volumes. (S. R. Wells, N. Y.) The To-day Printing and Publishing Company is pushing forward its work with commendable en- terprise. To-day, the paper which gives it name is still improving, and presents a healthful ap pearance. Every subscriber to if is prescnted with his choice of one of the beautiful chromes executed for that purpose—" Just So Iligh," "Little Sun shine," or "Among the Dew-Drops." Each of these is a gem of art, and would compare favorably with the more expensive pictures. The new book of "American Humor," by Max Adeler,—Out of the Burly-Burly—announced some time ago. will soon be ready. (To-Day Pub. Co., Philadelphia.) Harper** Mfg/UZI/IC, for April, is embellished with seventy-eight engravings. The number opens with an illustrated paper by Charles Nord hon. on "The Farelloon Islands," which arc the home of innumerable birds, sea lions, Ac. In this number, also, Gen. Geo. B. McClellan comes be fore the country with his first article on Army Or ganization, after a long obscurity. harpers Magazine is always well filled with papers of great historical and soical interest and value. Mr. Deshler's article on the Defective Classes will pos sess great interest at this time, as the care of the deaf, dumb, blind and feeble-minded is command ing the attention of our Legislatures as well as of individuals. The neglect of these classes in our State has been such that appeal after appeal has been sent to the Legislature praying for measures looking towards a bettering of their condition. Every department is full andvaried. (Harper A Bro., N . Y.) Littell'e Liring Aye continues to bring to its pa trons the cream of the foreign periodicals. Week after week we are thus permitted to enjoy the pro ductions of the ablest minds "across the water" in our own homes, being brought together in this re pository of literature. The contents are always varied and entertaining (Littell A Gay, Boston.) The Illustrated Annual of Phrenoloyy and Phys. iouttonty for 1874, contains much valuable informa • tion, illustrated with more then fifty engravings. It is serpcising lases so mu•sh information can be given far the small stun of twenty-five cents. (S. R. Welly, N. Y.) The Mediertl Record is a semi-monthly journal of medicine and surgery, edited by George F . Shrody, A. M., 31. D., andpublished by Wm. Wood & Cc., 27 Great Jones St., New York, at 54.00 per annum. It is now in its 9th volume, and is in creasing in popularity with the profession. It is filled with well-written articles of the greatest in terest to all physicians, and others interested in medical subjects. It is a live periodical, and should be on the table of every practitioner. VOICE OF THE PEOPLE. FROM TILIIO24' 'VALLEY Timm WALLEY, 4t Shpring dime, 1874.
