Several houses have lately gone up, and several are on the way. The East Broad Top railroad runs close by, and it is said the Company have determined to •locate a depot there. An epidemic, something like the horse epizootic, extensively prevails in the commu nity of the Three Springs. Adults, as well as children, are subject to its prostrating in fluence. Some have died at the shanties along the East Bread Top railroad. The government is sending detectives out to ascertain whether the law requiring Bank checks to be stamped is not evaded. Inas much as the fine is heavy, we would advise our friends to be careful not to neglect so slight a matter when at so great a risk. Several days ago six men, engaged in the, tunnel, being cut through Sidling Bill, on the East 13. T. R. It., were badly injured by the explosion of powder, having been ignited from sparks issuing from the rocks while using the drills. One of the men, it is said, has since died. While Michael Fleisher, of Jackson town ship, with his wife and daughter, were on their way to a funeral, one Lay last week, the horse was choked by a tight collar and fell over an embankment, breaking the buggy and the arm of Mrs. Fleisher. The daughter was slightly bruised. • The "Monument Sacred to the Memory of the Borough Dads, " :in front of the Post Office, on last Saturday morning, was quite an object of attraction and suggested quite a number of other than complimentary reflec tions. It is said to have been the tribute of one " Dad " to the others. The Standard is informed that we have no chickens out. We have self-reliance enough to believe that we understand our own busi ness, and, when we do not understand it, or the business of our neighbors, we believe we have discretion enough not to make a public exhibition of our ignorance. The local of the Bedford Gazette is not dis posed to be complimentary to his Democratic friends in this county, when he says, "Quer ry's mules nra not all the long-eared fellows, down there, by a long shot." He is no doubt right, however. There are a number of them who very much resemble the Jack of the Ga zette. - Col. Williams has contracted fur the erec tion of a large and handsome monument over the remains of the late Dr. Houtz, of Alexan dria, and a portion of the marble for the same has arrived. The Colonel will spread himself on this job, and we will bet our last "spinner" that he will do no discredit to his reputation as a sculptor. Capt. Butchinell introduced a bill in the House of Representatives, on Monday of last week, to extend the Act of 1869; empowering the Sheriff and Prothonotary of this county to sue and collect their fees. This bill is asked by one of the most unreasonable and bitter Democrats in the county for his benefit alone. It is a cool request. We object. The Chairman of the Democratic County Committee of this county has issued a call to the Committee to meet in the Court House, in this place, on Friday the Bth day of May, 1874, for the purpose of electing two Repre sentative Delegates to the State Convention, and Conferees, who, with Conferees from other counties, are to choose a Senatorial Delegate. On Tuesday, of last week, snow fell here from early morn until late in the evening.— There could not have been less than eighteen or twenty inches. On Wednesday mornicg, after the constant thaw of the day previous, we measured five and a half inches on the sidewalk. This may be considered a fair thing for the 29th of April. Twenty years ago a similar amount fell on the Vith of April. Verily, in twenty years extremes meet. The bar of Franklin county lately gave a banquet to Judge Hall, of Bedford, who, under the new Constitution, chooses the counties of Bedford and Somerset as his district. The Chambersburg lawyers were loud in their praises of Judge Hall, and seem to greatly re gret' his leaving them. Business all through that district is up to within a few months, so that all cases are tried within a year. This speaks well for both Judge and bar. .We have always understood that the Bar, in the Court House, during the sessions of Court, was intended for the attorneys, but during the late term we.attended several times and found attorneys standing, crowded out of their seats. Nor was this confined to young men. We noticed heads venerable with years wlio were treated thus disrespectfully. If the Court Crier has no idea of the eternal fitness of things, it would not be outside of the pro.. vioce of the Court to remind him of his duty. On Wednesday morning last a German tramp, named Hammond Hovey, was struck, by the Pacific Express, near the iron bridge, east of the Coal Wharf, in West Hun tingdon, and terribly used up. Both his legs were cut off and his skull fractured. Be lin gered during the day and then expired. From papers found upon his person he was ascer tained to be fro& Saxony, Germany. He had lately worked in Cincinnati. There appears' to be more casualties among this class of travelers than any other latterly. We learn from the Lewistown Gazette that Samuel Stewart, miller at Greenwood Furnaces, and formerly of Mifflin county, narrowly esca ped death on Wednesday last, under the follow. lug circumstances : He went down among the machinery in the lower part of the mill for the purpose of discovering, if possible, a leak in one of the garners, and while there his coat accidentally caught in the cogs, and in the struggle which ensued the garment was torn From his back. Had he been wearing a coat of strong material the result might have been fatal. In another column will be found the Mer cantile Appraiser's List. It shows an in crease of business firms in Alexandria, C 693, Cromwell, Franklin, Jackson, Mapleton, Mt. Union, Orbisonia, Three Springs and Hunting. don, and a decrease in Berne, Brady, Carbon, Cassrille bor., Clay, Coalmont, Hopewell, Lincoln, Morris, Penn, Porter, Sbirleysburtr, Shade Gap, Warriorsmark, West and Peters burg, as compared with last year. There are only three more names ban last -year and a decrease in the amount assessed on last year of $79.50. The item, we understand, which appeared in the Joussm.,, a week or two since, in regard to the disgraceful Methodist Church, at Scotts ville, has produced a change in the dreams of some.of the membership there, and they are now agitating the project of a new church.— Last Sabbath a week, while Rev. Shoemaker was dispensing to the congregation, from the pulpit, the word of eternal life, the water was dripping from the old broken ceiling at vari ous paints, one of which was almost directly above the head of the preacher. Unity of purpose cad of action could easily consum mate the project of a new church. It was April the 30th. The morn was clear and beautiful. The snow, like the trees, was leaving, when the door opened and in stepped, with a beaming countenance, "our mutual friend" J. E. Smucker, esq., with as comforta ble a chair as ever man sat upon, and deposi ted it in our sanctum and then went his way doing good, amid a shower of thanks. It made our heart glad. We had been wishing, for months, for just such a chair, and like Stilling, when we least expected it, here it came. Ah, Smucker, you are a benefactor I How sorry we are that you arc retiring from the furni ture business, but then we have the satisfac tion of knowing that Brown still goes on as of old. Thanks again, Smucker. WHOLESALE SLAUGHTER—FOUR MEN Hurled Into Eternity at the Same Time—Anoth er Seriously Injured,--One of the most distress ing railroad accidents it has ever been our duty to record, occurred midway between Gallitzin and Cresson, on the Pittsburgh Di vision, yesterday morning, resulting in the instantaneous death of four men and the seri- ous injury of another. On the nineteenth of March last five men named Amos and Jacob Pardee, (brothers,) Persifer Smith Irwin and William W. Irwin, (brothers,) and Jacob Bowden, along with several other acquaintances, left Cherry Tree, Indiana county, on a raft bound for Marietta. They continued on their journey without in terruption until a distance of about eighteen miles below Clearfield where the raft was stranded, at which pace they were compelled to remain four weeks, during which time all on board the raft deserted it and returned to their homes, save the five men aforementioned. On the occasion of the recent flood, the raft continued on its journey and safely arrived at Marietta, Pa., its destination. The raftsmen then took passage by rail on their return home, arriving in this city yesterday morning. At this point they boarded the Johnstown Ac commocation train and upon their arrival at Gallitzin alighted therefrom for the purpose of pursuing their journey afoot across the mountain to their home, in the vicinity of Cherry Tree. Finding the snow entirely too deep to make any progress they returned to Gallitzin and started to walk down the rail road to Cresson, where they intended to take the Branch train for Ebensburg. Midway between Gallitzin and Cresson, in a comparatively deep cut, there is a short curve and while the five men named were passing through it they observed the second through coal train approaching them on the south, track, eastward bound, and immediately step ped over to thenorth track to let it pass. As they did so the Pacific express train westward bound rounded the curve like a streak of lightning, and before an opportunity was af forded the engineer to sound the danger sig nal the pilot of the locomotive struck the five men at the same time, killing four of them and breaking the leg of the fifth. As previ ously stated, the curve is very short, so much so, in fact, that it is impossible to see but a short distance when the coast is clear, while on thit occasion the view of the engineer was obstructed by the eastward bound coal train. The five men were all knocked off the truck, three of them being thrown to the right of the track and two to the left. But one of the party—Jacob Bowden—was run over and had his left arm almost torn from the socket, while another was thrown under a truck standing on a siding. The officers of the railway company turned the bodies of the four dead men over to the county authorities. On the Cincinnati express train eastward bound, Cambria county's coro ner, Jacob llarrotd, arrived at Cresson, and summoning a jury ; proceeded to hold an in quest. A verdict of accidental death in ac cordance with the facts as above stated was rendered. The Pardee brothers resided some ten miles distant from Cherry Tree, and the Irwin broth ers only four miles distant. Bowden resided in the town. The Irwin brothers were first cousins of Mr. John Smith, of this city, a. freight 'engineer running on the Pittsburgh Division.—Altoona Tribune, April 30.

Pleasure travel, which has become so common with all classes of Americans during the summer months, is anticipated by many as the most enjoyable events of the entire year. It carries them to new scenes, familiarizes them with strange people, breaks the monotony of their lives, relieves for a time from mental and bodily strain, and ;e-invigorates them for life's cares and duties. It, therefore, becomes a momen tous question how this recreation, often lim ited by considerations of economy both of time and means, can most profitably and pleasantly be enjoyed. Many of our transportation lines have arranged routes and rates to meet there qnirements of the people, and from season to season these facilities are improved and ex tended. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company has gained a high reputation for the facilities it annually presents this class of travelers, and the popularity its lines enjoy is well merited. They extend into the most interesting portions of the Middle States, and excursionists can be carried beer them for long distances at low rates, without annoying changes or transfers. Its roadway and rolling stock are probably the most perfect in America, and its manage ment is complete, careful, and courteous. As a consequence the comfort of travelers is as sured and their safety guaranteed. Every reader of current news is aware of the fact that a "terrible accident" is rarely chronicled on any portion of this great railroad system. So far as scenery goes, no lines of railroad on the continent can surpass those running through Pennsylvania. Magnificent agricul tural panoramas, beautiful river views, splen did.mountain pictures, picturesque hills and valleys, lovely villages, and flourishing towns and.cities are seen in quick succession. A ride of twelve hours between Philadelphia and Pittsburg shows more interesting variety than can be seen in the same time and distance anywhere else in the 'United States, and front this main channel a score of branches run, leading to localities and resorts of unsurpassed attractiveness and world-v, ido popularity. The State of Pennsylvania is in itself an interesting study. Its bosom holds all the anthracite and much of the bituminous coal found on the continent. Its hidden fountains produce the larger portion of the oil now so essential to the comfort and industry of the world. Many of its hills are depositories of iron and other ores, trltiA am utilized in im mense manufactories seen in every valley. Its forests supply the principal part of the lumber used in the great cities of the Atlantic sea board. Its soil varies from the richest to the poorest. Its territory is cashed by the tides of the Atlantic and the waters of Lake Erie, and is drained into the Gulf of Mexico by riv ers navigable more than two thousand miles. Its boundaries completely separate New En gland and New York from the Mississippi valley; and its entire area is dotted by scenes of more than ordinary historical interest. All these combinations add to the charm and in terest of travel, and every American can find something in it instructive and gratifying. The accommodations provided for summer tourists on the line of the Pennsylvania Rail road ace unsurpassed. Good hotels in all the towns reached by it are the rule, not the ex ception, and many of them are elegant in ail their appointments. It would be difficult to select any highway of travel anywhere that can compare, in the essentials of comfort, safety, expedition, and interest, with the mag nificent system of railroads managed by this company. DIGEST OF THE FISII LAW.—The Lew istown Gazette vouches for the correctness of the following digest of the fish law—the which "fish hawks" will do well to read, inwardly digest, and obey It.is unlawful to catch shad in the Susque hanna or its tributaries between June 16, and August 10. under penalty of Five Dollars for each one so caught. _ _ _ It is lawful to catch fish below any dam which has no schute or fish ladders, the half mile clause not applying to such dams.

Low, who was with Peter McGeorge's log drive, on Trout Run, was drowned, under the following cir cumstances : The crew with which Low was connected were driving logs down the stream, and when at the point at which he was drowned Low declared his intention of crossing—foolishly one. unnecessarily, the men say, and conse quently they told him not to do it—that he could not get across. He persisted, however, and when about the middle of the stream the current swept him from Isis feet, and under the circumstances it was impossible for him to help himself, or to receive help from others in time to save his life. His body was found about half a hour later, further down the stream. His skull was broken and he was considerably bruised about the face and body —the result of being struck by the floating logs. His body was brought to the undertaking establishment of Troutman h Leavy in this place, where it remained over Sunday. It was prepared for the tomb, and taken to his friends in Huntingdon on Monday. It is always sad to recerd such things, but more so in a case of this kind—when a man has carelessly thrown his life away.—Raftsman's Journal. SHAKESPEARE did not write Spring has come at last. The little birds are making the air vocal with their sweetest notes of praise, and Capt. Tom. Johnston, of the firm of Henry & Co., has gone to Philadelphia, this week, for a stock of Spring and Summer Goods large enough to supply the county, and which they are determined to sell at prices so low as to make the heart of every one rejoice in these panic times.

It cures—not by abruptly stopping the cough-- but by dissolving the phlegm and assisting waters to throw off the unhealthy matter causing the ir ritation. In cases of seated Consumption it both prolongs and renders less burdensome the life of the afflicted sufferer. 2.
