A wreck of freight trains, in the neighbor

On Tuesday afternoon, of last week, Mr.
John Cahill, who resides one nod a half miles
east of this place, was instantly killed, by a
western bound freight train, at the "old quar
ry," just below town. The engineer says that
when he rounded the curve—which is very
sharp at this point—he discovered a man ly
ing upon the track, and although he instantly
whistled down brakes and reversed his en
gine, he was unable to stop the train and it
struck the unfortunate man, breaking his
neck, cutting a severe gash in his head, tear
ing off the left ear and otherwise mangling
the upper portion of his body. The deceased
was an industrious man, having for several
years worked in the night gang at the coal
wharf, and through the day did the work on
a small farm where he lived. He leaves a
wife and several children.
The river bridge, at the foot of Fourth
street, seems to be the rendezvous for all the
rowdies and blackguards in town, and every
Sunday they congregate there and desecrate
the day in every imaginable manner. Only a
few Sundays ago, while passing through the
bridge, we came upon two half-grown boys
engaged in a game of cards. Last Sunday
evening, owing to the rain, a larger number
than usual had assembled there for shelter,
and in addition to their profanity they passed
the time throwing burs upon almost every
person who had occasion to pass them, until
finally a number of the ringleaders attacked
a colored boy named John Yaw, who, by the
way, is better behaved than any of those who
imposed upon him, and when he defended
himself from their brutal attack—which be
was justifiable in doing—a policeman was sent
for and the colored boy Was hounded in all
directions, while scores of white rowdies,
whose conduct was the cause of the distur
bance, were permitted to look on and enjoy
'the sport. All violators of the law should be
arrested and punished, but becnuse a boy has
n &lack skin be should not be singled out from
amongst a score of young outlaws and they
permitted to go unpunished.

Too MANY N EWroI'APEItS. —Bishop
Curia of allude Island, writes upon the sub
ject to the New York Ledger, under the head
of "too touch of a good thing," as follows
"Perodicals are a good thing hut we have too
many of them, Ido not mean that too many
copies of the better class are circulated, but
simply that there is ft larger number of news•
papers published than is needed, and that
there arc too many magazines of various sorts
seeking for patronage. Every religious de
nomination must have its own organ, as a
matter of conse; every chade of doctrine in
each donomination also has its mouth-peico :
and then comes the rivalry of various loeali•
ties, trying to establish papers of their own.
In some cif our cities there are half a dozen
dailies, representing the same political party,
all printing the same news, and to some extent
filled with the same advertisements. In other
departments we have quarterlies, monthlies
and weeklies without number, of every grade
of merit, and some without any merit at all.
J, IiALI muslin,
It is said that eight milious of dollars have
heea sunk during the past year in the period
ical and newspap2r bus:ness; many publica
tions have become extinct, and as many more
are struggling to sustain a precarious exist
ence. There is a constant process of absorp•
Con going on—one periodical swallowing an
other, and then another, sometimes compound
ing the titles, and combining the various edi
tors andcontributors, and sometimes not. The
most pertinacious canvassing, the most exten
sive advertising, the most inflated puffing, the
most liberal discounts, the distribution of
chroinos and cheap sewing-machines, and
various other unsaleable articles as premiums,
fail to insure a list of subscribers that is re
nurneiative—partly because the market is
glutted, and partly because the periodical fails
to meet the wants and gratify the taste of the
community. The unfortunate editor can af
ford to pay little or nothing to his contribu
tors, as he himself has to write with grim
poverty staring him in the face, and poor pay
generally means poor work. How much bet
ter it would be to concentrate strength upon
a few able and well renumerated periodicals.
"The newspapers would save a large amount
of money that is now expended in paying for
the same news and dispatches,—advertisers
would be able to reach a wider circle of read
ers,—many vexatious quarrels that grow out
of the petty rivalry of editors would be ended,
—and in place of the weary platitudes that
now encumber the columns of our periodicals,
we might always have the freshest and best
thoughts of the ablest minds and most vigor
ous writers in the land."
Base ball is undoubtedly good exercise and
capital amusement, but it often occasions
bunged eyes, broken skins and blistered hands.
We can tell you that in all such cases, if
Johnson's Anodyne Liniment is resorted to, it
will reduce the swelling and stop the pain.
HONORABLE MENTION.—Our Band was
in Ebensburg, a week or so ago, and here is
what the Cambria Freeman has to say about
it, all of which is true to the letter: "And
now let us say a few words about the Hun
tingdon silver cornet band, which accompan
ied the excurtionists on this occasion, and of
whom we can say a more proficient or more
gentlemanly organization never honored our
town with its presence. They are all fine
looking men strictly temperate in their habits,
and musically and no doubt morally and so
cially are an honor to the town which claims
them as its own. After the picnic was over
they serenaded several of our citizens, dis
coursing as sweet music as was ever heard on
our streets. The impression made upon our
people was that they are thorough gentlemen
and excellent musicians, and the hope is en
tertained by all that, they will ere long pay us
another visit."
If you feel that everything goes wrong, if
you want to get up early in the morning, if
you have a pain in the stprnach, take a dose
of Dr. Bulls Vegetable Pills.
GRAPE CULTURE AND WIN E.—Th3
culture of the Grape in New Jersey is getting
to be one of the most important industries of
the State. The principal varieties raised are
the Oporto and Concord. Mr. Speer's vine—
yards at Passaic promises a larger yield this
than any previous year. In consequence Mr.
Speer has reduced the price of his Port Grape
Wine. The oldest can now be had at $1 per
bottle from any of the Druggists. It is used
for medicinial purposes as a superior wine,
and in families as an excellent evening party
wine. Its intoxicating properties are so slight
that the weakest person may use it to advant
age, and temperance people cannot object to
its use as medicine.—Evening Bulletin.

SCHOOL REPORT OF HUNTINGDON
COUNTTY FOIL TILE VEAL ENDrNo, Juno 1575.
The educational progro,s of tho county during the
past year has been quite satisfactory in many particu
lars.
Among the signs betokening advancement, a favorable
one is the manifestation of greater care in the location,
plan and construction of school houses; supplyieg them
with suitable furniture, necessary apparatus and needful
outbuildings; fencing and beautifying 'school grounds,
and in various ways oontibuting to make school a pleas
ant and an attractive place.
The fact that those whose duty it Is to provide the
means for educating the children of our Commonwealth
aro demanded to have regard for the health comfort and
convenience of pupils, and to minister to their aesthetic
and moral natures as well, gives evidence uf an educe.-
cational sentiment whose influence is cure to pervade
every department of school work.
Since our la,t report, two worn out houses in Peters-
burg, West township have given place to a substansial,
commodious two—story brick building containing two
rooms on each floor.
As yet only two rooms are used for school purposes,
but, when building th people wisely took into consid
eration the future growth of the village.
The rooms in use are supplied with first clans furniture,
are well lighted and heated and tolerably - well ventilated.
. .
All considered, the structure is an ornament to the
place and a strong testimony of the intelligence and ed
ucational spirit of the community.
Eightone-roomed houses wore built during the year.
Although they aro not quite what they should bo, in
most cases they contrast favorably with the school build•
ins previously erected in those districts.
Thu. , Je built in Ilupowell, Jackson and Penn are the
most substautial.
I ant glad to report the erection. within the year, of
upwards of fifty privha and a number more under von
tract. May we hot hope that this well le gun work will
iro on until we shrill not be required t . nreport a tingle
school house in the county without suitable outbuildings.
sonic little interest has been taken, since last report,
in improving school grounds. A few lots have been
fenced and shade trees plauteu.
The directors of Walker township purchased a set of
maps fur each of their schools, which is the only increase
of apparatus worthy of note.
The annual Teacher's Institute was hold In Hunting
don during the last week of Nvember.
It was ably instructed during the entire week by Prof.
A. N. Robb of Lock Haven, W. W. Woodruff of Bucks
county and J. Irvin White, Principal of the Huntingdon
Public Schools.
We aro also indebted to Prof. Chas. M. Carter of the
Cumberland Valley Stale Normal School, who woe with
us one day, and Prof. Jas. A. Stephens of the Huntingdon
Academy for valuable services. A number of our own
teachers engaged heartily In the exercises, and much et
the success of the late session is due to their efforts.
The inetitut, was conducted without the aid (1) of "nide
shows." The evening sessions were taken up with lect
ures and discussions on educational topics.
On Thursday evening Dr. Wickersham, State Superi n ten
dent, addressed a large audience of teachers, directers and
friends of education.
°nerd t 101 l to the Institute in this county Lae almost,
yet not entirely, disappeared. By a special net of Legis
lature, teachers have the privilege of attending without
being required to make up the time. It ieto be regretted
however, that in a few districts teachers who exercise this
right, do so at the peril of incurring the displeasure of
the ctfrectorr, and some are thus deterred from availing
themselves of the means of improvement.
Nine local institutes anti nineteen educational meetings
were bold in various parts of the county.
No part of my official work has been crowned with
better success, or exercised a more salutary influence on
the (Aimee of education in our county, than that lone

eti eat of !La►tingdon borough, under the efficient
metuugea►eut °flits Principal, Mr. White, have Improved
greatly during the peat two years, and nes er waa In bet
tet workiugwadition than now. The remainder of our
grated sch.a.de are only nominally such.
They Mae neither a head nor a graduated course of
study.
Primary schada are doing tho work of Intermediate
and higher schools, and the higher schools are doing their
own work and that of primaries,
Then• schools sustain no more intimate relations to
one unniber than if they were situate miles apart,
The teacher of the most advanced grade in ouch district
should he appointed Principal of ail the schools, and,
through him, as a directing head, the Bard should man
age the whole educational system of the district.
A win'isn of study should be prepared by hint, or by the
directors, and he should coo that the work assigned each
grade to duce by it ;so that when pupils are advanced to
a higher grade they are prepared to enter all the classes
in that grade, and nut necessitate the formation of new
classes ia some of the branches, as In frequently the case.
When these stops are taken we may hope for more sat
isfactory results in our graded shoo's.
A graded course of study for the schools in the rural
districts, by which the same grade of each school would
receive about the same instruction, is practical and high
ly desirable.
Steps have already been taken in this direction. Let
us hope that the next school year will witness great ad
vancement in this work.
The resolution unanimously adopted at our institute a
year ago, to pay teachers according to their qualifications,
WAS unfortunately nut generally carried into effect.
Why will directors persist in virtually offering a re
ward for ignorance and inefficiency, by paying a poor
teacher as much as a good one?
We do not ask directors to put teachers' salaries beyond
the moans of their several districts, but the best interests
of our schools demand that salaries should discriminate
between efficient teachers and inefficient ones.
It is not only justice to those employed, but true econ
omy on the part of the directors, to pay good skillful
teachers more liberally than those who know little of the
nature of their work and careless about the manner in
which it is performed.
Ono board of directors employed two teachers who failed
to receive certificates at the examination.
Although sonic of the directors acknowledge that the
applicants rejected were not qualified to teach, they were
forced upon the people in one of the beet paying districts
in the county.
' • ' _ . . . . .
As a result of the obstinacy of the board, the district
forfeited her share of the State Appropriation, amounting
to about $3OO.
It is a fact to be lamented that our directors do not visit
the schools more frequently.
Neither patrons nor directors can fully discharge their
duties and neglect this work ; but it particularly devolves
upon directors, on account of their official relation to the
schools.
We would like to call attention to other matters affect
ing the progress of our schools, but space will not permit
us to do so at this time.
In conclusion, I acknowledge my obligation to teachers
and directors fur their hearty support ; to the Press of
the county for gratuitous publication of reports, institute
proceedings and occasional editorial notes on the educa
tional interests of the county ; and to all who by word or
act have contributed to advance the cause of popular

Philadelphia Cattle Market.
PHILADELPHIA, Monday, Sept 20----r
M.—
Beef cattle—The market for this description of
stock opened to-day with a decidedly better feel
ing tinder the influence of a considerable falling
off in the receipts, and, althongh the demand was
not particularly pressing, holders had the advan
tage and succeeded in establishing an advance of
le on common and about is ou medium to choice
stock. By the early closing out of all the really
choice droves last week many buyers were de
barred from obtaining their usual supply, but to
day the dealers in these grades were in market at
much earlier hour than usual, and thus secured their
full complement, pitying the advanced figures
without tho least reluctance. Other descriptions
attracted more attention, but the advanced pre
tentious of holders served to check the inquiry
somewhat. Without exception last Monday's
market was the most disastrous one to owners of
stock they have had this year, and the losses they
incurred were enormous. To prevent a repetition
to-day fewer cattle were sent in this direction, the
aggregating receipts reaching only 2,700 head
against 4,100 head last week. We quote choice
at ii@iic; fair to good at 667.-Ic, and common
at 4@.sie.

gle admission tickets 25 cents.
SUGIOESTIONS,
Tho funds of the Society are low at present—in
fact their is a heavy debt resting upon the So
ciety--and the Premiums offered are consequently
smaller than they have been for the last few
years; but still, they aro larger than they were at
the earlier Fairs of this Association ; and in the
aggregate they aro probably as high as they have
been in later years. More premiums are now of
fered for the same articles, many of them extend
ing to second and third premiums; and the list of
articles itself has been extended so as to embrace
a greater variety than before. The Association
will rely upon the publio spirit and liberality of
their fellow citizens to sustain their own Fairs,
end thus elevate the industrial arts and agricul
tural improements in our county.
