Huntingdon has done more than was asked
of her towards raising funds for the projected
plate glass works. Our neighbor of the Johns

An occasional city drummer, whose get-up

We stated, a week or two ago, that two of
the furnaces owned by the Blair Iron and
Coal Company would stop operations, for the
reason that iron could be purchased cheaper
than the proprietors could make it. We are
pleased to learn, through the Hollidaysburg
Register, that such is not the case.
We bear it rumored that a re-organization
of the Huntingdon Silver Cornet Band will
take place in a short time, under the leader

impart musical instruction and bring this or
ganization to the front rank. Hope the rumor
may be correct.
Some stupid started a report that the con
test for the location of the plate glass works
was between Huntingdon and Altoona. Al
toona has never been named in connection
with them. Tyrone, on the other hand, was a
competitor, but dropped out inside of a week.
The competition is now between Huntingdon
and Pittsburgh and the former will get them
beyond a peradventure.
Huntingdon raised the $lOO,OOO asked of
her, for the erection of the glass works, with
out the aid of the old fogies and fossils that
vegetate within her borders. They had the
right to give or not, just as they saw fit, and
the masses have the right to form their own
opinions of men who clutch their money with
the Shylock's grasp and refuse to invest it
where it would benefit the laboring poor.
In reading the Benton (Ill.) Standard, we
notice that our old time friend, J. S. Barr,
esq., its editor, has got into a little "onpleas
antness" with the editor of the Courier, another
paper published at the same place, and in our
mind's eye we see him, as we used to see him
in the long ago, in his "war paint and feathers,"
when he and the writer were battling for the
Right. We have some of the varmints in this
county, friend Barr, and we fully justify your
contempt for the rodents.
On Tuesday of last week a stranger offered
in payment fora suit of clothes he had selected
at Jacobs' clothing store, a note for some
forty odd dollars. bearing the name of David
Barrick, esq., of Petersburg. The clerk, not
liking the appearance of the note, took it to
the Union Bank for examination, when Mr.
North promptly pronounced it a forgery.—
The person offering it said he could neither
read nor write and had purchased it from a
third party. He was permitted to go.
The town of Huntingdon, prospective loctl
ity where plate glass works of a Belgian pat
tern is to be erected, has a policeman. He
receives the munificent salary of seventy-five
dollars per annum, and it is fair to say that no
person in that place is more suited to the
position. According to our figuring he will
not get wealthy at the job unless he can save
ten cents a month, which must be put out at
compound interest for a period of fourteen
hundred years.—Johnslown Tribune.
There is some talk that the Supreme Court
now in session at Harrisburg will adjourn its
sessions to Bedford on the first of June. Four
of the Judges, we learn, are decidedly in favor
of the movement. The only thing in the way
was that they doubted that the Bedford Court
House would afford them sufficient accommo
dations. Hon. John Cessna, to whom the
question was referred, has taken an inventory
of the space and has written the honorable
Judges that Bedford can seat them comfortably
and feed them abundantly, not to say anything
of the exhilarating and health restoring Bed
ford waters and pure mountain air which will
be thrown in.—Bedford C'ounty I'res3.

esq.. of this borough, and we respectfully
recommend him to Commissioner Hewitt for
the appointment. Scarcely a day passes
without bass being caught, in defiance of the
law, for the reason that no person seems dis
posed to institute proceedings against the
guilty parties. In this instance the old saw,
•what is everybody's business is nobody's
business," proves a trueism. Let us have a
Warden. Mr. Hewitt, and save the fish until
the proper time for catching them.
The currant worm has already made its
appearance, and henceforth until the berries
are ripe and picked it will be necessary to
keep close watch upon the currant and goose
berry bushes. Lime sprinkled upon them, it
is said, will destroy them. Our own remedy
is this : We buy at the drug store five cents
worth of pulverized white hellebore and put
in a clean coal scuttle or other vessel and fill
with water. After standing a day or so we
pour some into a small sprinkling can and
either soon after a shower or early in the
morning when the leaves are wet from dew,
give the bushes a good sprinkling. One good
sprinkling will kill most of the worms, but we
generally go over twice and three times to
make sure work. A squirt would be more
effectual than a sprinkling can, as the worms
mostly are lodged and work on the under side
of the leaves. This remedy is certain if prop
erly attended to, and we commend it. The
trouble and expense are trifling.—Exchange.
J. G. Boyer & Co., are about establishing a
soip factory in this place, and for a week or
two past workmen have been engaged in
setting the kettles and preparing for the suc
cessful- carrying on of this business. The
factory is situated in the rear of the Franklin
[louse, where they have ample room, both for
the kettles and for moulding, drying and pack
ing purposes. It is the intention of this firm
to manufacture all kinds of soap, from the
:::.•mmoriest to the very finest and costliest
toilet known to the trade, and with this object
in view they have secured the services of a
gentleman from Norristown, who has had
several years experience in the business, and
who has the reputation of being able to man
ufacture a first-class article. Messrs. Boyer
& Lightner, the gentlemen composing the
firm. have been at considerable expense in
fitting up their establishment, and when the
thing is in proper running order we trust that
their profits may greatly exceed their most
sanguine expectations.
A WONDERFUL INVENTION.—Another
invention, wholly unlike that of Prof. Bell, yet
related to it, as exhibiting another phase of
the same wonderful and mysterious element
in nature, has appeared to share with the tel
ephone, the telegraph and the magnetic needle
the glory and triumph of magnetism. It is a
means of utilizing the power of the permanent
magnet for mechanical purposes ; something
which, like the transmission of sound through
hundreds of miles of space, until recently has
been regarded as an impossibility.
Electro-magnetism, as everybody knows,
has been made available as a motive power,
but only for limited uses, on account of the
inconveniences and expense of maintaining
the powerful batteries required ; but the pow
er of the permanent magnet, inexhaustible,
as it is, and costing nothing, has, like gravi
tation, been considered, until now, wholly
impracticable for mechanical use. But as in
the case of some other great inventions, what
was supposed to be impossible, has been
achieved.
This new invention is that of Prof. Wesley
W. Gary, lately of Pennsylvalia, now of this
city, who exhibited his invention on Thursday
evening last before the Institute of Technolo
gy and has shown it to hundreds of our citi
zens, and who, unlike the proprietor of the
"Keeley Motor," does not seek to shroud his
discovery in mystery but invites for it the
fullest investigation, and submits it to the se
verest scientific and mechanical tests.
It is well known, not only to the scientific
but to all who have observed the ordinary
phenomena of magnetism, that when a bar of
soft iron is made to approach the poles of a
permanent magnet, it becomes magnetized,
and while in that position is itself a magnet
by induction, having polarity and the power
of attraction and repulsion, like other magnets,
opposite poles attracting and like poles repell
ing each other. But Prof. Gary has discover
ed what is not generally known, that as the
bar of iron is brought nearer the poles of the
magnet, when very near, yet not quite in con
tact, its polarity changes, the positive pole
becoming negative and the negative pole pos
itive. The discovery of this law is the point
on which his invention turns. By encircling ,
the bar with a very slight current of electric
ity to produce an equilibrium between the
magnetic power of the bar and that of the
permanent magnet, the polarity of this current
being changed, by means of a current changer,
to correspond with the change of polarity is
the bar, at the instant su7ll change takes place
attraction ceases and repulsion begins, and a
reverse motion is obtained. -
Then by using two magnets, or sets of mag
nets, one to attract while the other repels, the
bar of iron, which may be attached to a walk
ing-beam, pendulum, or other lever, is moved
to and fro with a rapidity and regularity suited
to any mechanical use, and with a power
limited only by the power of the magnets
applied. It is as if the pile driver should
discover a means whereby, at the instant his
falling hammer reaches the earth, the power
of gravitation could be reversed to send the
ponderous weight back again to strike au
upward blow, and then down again with the
same force as before, and so on perpetually.
lu . using the ordinary electro-magnetic
power, the current of electricity must be equal
to the power of the magnet which operates,
but in this case, as compared with the avail
able power of the permanent magnet, the
power of the electric current may be less than
1 to 100, and it may be taken from a small
galvanic cup, or it may be generated by fric
tion of the machinery as it runs, so that the
cost of producing it is next to nothing.
The engines which Prof. Gary has already
constructed upon this principle are for the size
for running dental machines, sewing machines,
jig saws and other small machines requiring
little power, but he sees no reason why by
using larger magnets, and more of them, the
available power may not be increased indefi
nitely.
The easiest way of disposing of Prof. Gary's
claim is to denounce it as a humbug, as it is
the custom to do with other things that appear
incredible. But there is no doubt that, as he
sees his invention working successfully day
by day before his eyes he believes it genuine,
and if some of our savans who know all about
such things do not expose its fallacy soon,
there is danger that be will dispose of his
invention, and it may be doing good work in
half the nation before its worthlessness is
discovered. As he does not close his doors
nor discourage scientific scrutiny and investi
gation, here is a chance for some wise phil
anthropist to save the world from another
magnificent imposition.—Boston Commercial

A NEW WRINKLE IN BEDFORD MIN
ERSL WATER.—Eight years ago Mr. H. S.
Ladew, of the firm of J. B. Hoyt & Co., Nl*
York, shipped from this place to his residence
in Cumberland. )Id., a ten gallon keg of the
celebrated Bedford Mineral Water. From
some cause or other, the water was not used.
nor the keg disturbed until a few weeks ago,
when in re-arrangng the goods in the cellar.
it was suggested that the keg be opened to see
whether Bedford water improved by age.
Accordingly the spigot was turned but no
water came. The weight was assurance that
the keg was not empty, and curiosity promoted
further investigation, with the following
results : One of the heads was taken out.
which revealed the fact that the water had
solidified, forming a uniform casing inside, of
the same shape of the vessel, and adhering to
the wood with such firmness that in separating
splints of oak were recognizable in the new
formation, which very much resembles, in
appearance and weight, common glue. The
keg was taken entirely apart, and the "What
is it" keg, hoonless and staveless, rolled over
the lawn without break or blemish. Mr.
Ladew's curiosity was aroused, and he had the
whole thing shipped to a chemist in New York
last week, and we are daily looking for a
leader in the scientific columns of the Tribune
or Times.—Bedford Inquirer

THE CORNER LOAFER.— Everybody
knows him says the Herald. What he does by
daylight is a mystery, for his face would ex
clude him from every business but the mock
auction, and his clothes do not qualify him
fur that. By night, however, he is a critic,
particularly of the gentle sex, and while he is
not destitute of appreciation his favorable
remarks are more to be dreaded than his
criticisms. He selects his professional stand
on the most crowded thoroughfares, where
policemen most do congregate ; but he is let
alone as tentkrly by officers as if he were a
burglar or a roper-in for a gambling house.
He never appears alone, but is a consistent
believer in the theory of cooperation, and
what remains unsaid by him and his associates
concerning any lady who passes them is
beneath the capacity of the meanest black
guard to conceive. Utterly depraved himself,
he cannot imagine that any one upon whom
he looks can be otherwise. Instinctively a
coward, his lips are sealed in the presenee of
a lady accompanied by a gentleman or even a
half-grown boy. Having only two feet, he
cannot be shot like the Spitz dog or any other
perambulating nuisance; being a voter he
cannot be arrested without damaging the
prospects of some human nuisance equally
dangerous but more politic. The only relief
from him seems to reside in the toe of the
manly boot. Self-constituted vigilance com
mittees of one might profitably employ a few
evenings in the interest ofsociety by watching
these ruffians and inflicting punishment
immediately on the commision of any offence,
although the marvelous faculty of officers for
arresting the wrong man would dictate that
action should be taken only when no police
man is in sight.
A Wonder-Working Remedy.
No remedial agent has ever been offered to
the sick and debilitated at all comparable to
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, iu cases of re
mittent and intermittent fevers, constipation,
nervous ailment, rheumatism,
and disorders
involving constitutional weakness or physical
decay. It literally "works wonders." The
botanic ingredients which its spiritous basis
holds in solution, act like a charm upon the
brain, liver, bowels, and nervous system.
There is nothing in its composition that is not
salubrious. It contains some of the most po
tent tonics of the vegetable kingdom and the
juices of the best aperient and anti-bilious roots
and herbs combined with a perfectly pure
stimulating element. The bitters are pecu
liarly adapted to those engaged in exhausting
or unhealthy occupations, as by its use
strength is sustained and the ability of the
system to resist atmospheric and other in
fluences prejudical to health largely increased.

At the head of the class of eity religious week
lies, still stands the "Christian Union" of New
York. None of that class of papers is so ably ed
ited, and no wonder, for at the editorial head stand
the names of Henry Ward Beecher, and Lyman
Abbott, editors. The sermons of Mr. Beecher ap
pear from week to week, and form a feature that
would be highly prized by every Christian man and
woman, if once acquainted with the beauty of style,
and the sublimity of the teachings of this great
preacher. It is published by Horatio C. King,

It would be a difficult matter to fled a more at
tractive, and entertaining pair of magazines, in
this or any other country, than those published by
Scribner A Co., New York. The writer has a com
plete set. beautifully bound, and they form, not
only a pleasing set of volumes for the library, but
contain a v , st store of information that will in
crease in value as coming years succeed the pres
ent. Dr. Holland the editor of the Month/y, him
self, is one of the most pleasing writers of Ameri
ca, also knows how to conduct such a magazine suc
cessfully. Every number of this year has had its
special features, commending it to the appreciat
ing public ; and to attempt toenumerate even those
of particular number would be to depricate it. The
May number was specially bright, and the June
number will appear in a few days with its almost
marvelous list of contents. May Mapes Dodge ed
itor of the St. Nicholas knows how to please the
young folks. She has anticipated her usual "Mid
summer Number" by a special number for "The
Merry Month of May," which is, indeed, fresh and
sprightly. It ought to be in every household where
young folks live or where there are old folks with
young minds. The best writers are engaged on
it. Look out for a bright June number.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
IT IS HARD TO BE POOR.
"lie that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his
Maker, but he that honoreth him hath mercy on
the poor." Mr. Editor, I have been reading the
articles that have appeared in the JOURNAL, for
several weeks past, written by ''Farmer," "Snoo
denhobble," and "Equite," in opposition to stay
and exemption laws and in favor of oppressing
the poor.
Now, while these articles have been ably an
swered by yourself, Trite, — and "Poor man,"
still the subject has not been exhausted. So long
as Eaton's kingdom stands there will be the op
pressed and the oppressor, so that an article in
favor of the poor will never be out of place. In
reply to the writers referred to above I do not feel
like denouncing them as scoundrels end rascals
because they are rich—no doubt they' are all
amongst those whom the world call honest and re
spectable citizens, and, perhaps, may all hold high
and honorable positions in the church—still the
heading of this article will justify me in saying
that they have never laid up any treasures in
Heaven. They may say "judge not that ye be not
judged," in reply to this we say that our Saviour
says, in the same chapter, "ye shall know them
by their fruits : do men gather grapes of thorns
or figs of thistles?" While some may rather make
August Flower.
LITERATURE.
a burlesque of this question, to me it is a very
grave and important one, one upon which the sal
cation or condemnation of many may depend.—
We think the Bible will justify us in saying that
it is not possible for any person to be a Christian
and either oppress or despise the poor. The rea
,on God gives for saving the righteous at the last
day is that they had given aid and comfort to the
poor. He says, "Fur I was an hungered and ye
gave me meat: I was thirsty and ye gave tile
drink : I was a stranger and ye took mein : Naked
and ye clothed me: I was sick and ye visited me:
I was in prison and ye came unto me." And when
the righteous seem to wonder when they had done
these things, He adds, "Inasmuch as ye have done
it (no doubt referring to the poor) unto one of the
least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto
me." And while he pronounces a blessing upon
the righteous for their giving aid and comfort to
the poor, Ile banishes the wicked forever from His
presence with a curse, because they did not do so.
I am truly sorry that these writers have thus used
their talents (if they have any) in encouraging
the rich to oppress the pour. Where is the rich
man who needs any encouragement in this direc
tion ? Oh! would it nut be enough fur them to
oppress the poor themselves and, perhaps, drive
them hungry from their doors, and laugh as the
winds of heaven toss about their withered rags
and expose their nakedness? Oh, if God pro
nounced a curse upon the man who hid his talent
in the earth will he not add a double curse to the
man who uses his talent for evil ?
"Equite" thinks he makes a strong point in his
article in presenting the case of a certain store
keeper who was imposed upon by a number of
poor men whom he denounces as "rascals." Now,
we do not justify this kind of dealing, and we be
lieve, as he does, that when these men got into
business again that they should have paid this
creditor's bill, and we believe too, that it was
wrung in him to trust out all his stock in this
way, and if be failed he can only blame himself
for it; according to his own argument if they lived
up to all they made when they had employment
how could he expect them to pay him for what
they got when they were out of employment? We
admit all in this picture that "Equite" claims in
it, and that it was all wrong, and we believe, too,
that it was the strongest case he could present of
poor men imposing upon a "merciless creditor."
Now this was not so bad after all when it took all
the poor men about a large factory, perhaps, to
break down ene man and it took them three years
to do it.
Now, let us see, for a moment, what a rich man
can do at this business when he fails to pay his
bills: A well known banker in a neighboring
county failed, a few years ago, and what was the
effect? hundreds of men were financially ruined,
and it did not take three years to do it, but the
very hour that the news went forth that Mr.-
had failed the work was done. The failure of this
one man carried sorrow into many a happy family
and the entire county has, and will, feel the effects
of this single failure for years to come. We have
no hard charges to bring against this m an for
failing to meet his liabilities. we believe that it
is possible for an honest man, during a panic like
the one we have passed through, to become so in
volved that it is impossible for him to pay his
just debts. But where was "Equite" when this
failure occurred ? lie denounces all the poor men
wh , failed to pay "Wilkins" his bill as scoundrels
and rascals. I say why had he no reproaches to
cast upon this man whose failure affected an en
tire county ? because he was a rich man; this was
the reason.
Now as all the writers on the side of oppression
have made a great hobby of honesty, we want to
show the reader who is that makes a busineas
of training men to be dishonest. It is the rich !
Any one familiar with. the old plan of running
charcoal furnaces knows that there was a regular
school for training men to be dishonest. They
would let their wood out by contract at so much
per cord. Now, when the iron master and clerk
took up the wood, it did not matter bow well or
honestly the wood was ranked, they would dock
them a certain amount on every cord, so in order
to get his - own, the wood-chopper was under the
necessity of cheating the iron-master in return.—
Ile would cut his wood a little shorter than con
tract, and use every deception in ranking it in
order to meet this dockage, and if he would fail
to get his own in this way, he would try and draw
ahead of his wages and then leave in debt to go
to another furnace to carry on the same game.—
Now who was to blame with this? The Iron
Master, we say, as the wood-chopper had .to re
sort to all thi , trickery in order to get his own and
keep his family.
Again, rich men and companies gene-ally give
their work out by contract, through sealed pro
posals. In this way poor men, in order to secure
the job, put in a bid lower than it is possible for
them to do the work according to contract, so that
they are almost compelled to slight the job, what
ever it may be in order to meet the wants of a
family. Necessity knows no law ; poor men are
often lead to do things of necessity, that they
would not do if they were differently situated,
hence the wise man's prayer: "Give me neither
poverty nor riches, least I be full and deny thee
or least Ibe poor and steal." I wish to notice one
point more in "Equity's" article. "The class of
ignorant politicians who usually get to Harrisburg
to make and tinker at laws seem to think that
unless they can claim to have done something for
the "poor man" they cannot urge a special plea
for further political preferment." Now, from this
quotation the reader will see that "Equite" is
grossly ignorant of - what our legislators have been
doing at Harrisburg. We would ask "Equite" or
any one in favor of oppressing the poor, what has
been dune for them ? When was there an act or
law passed in any way benefitting the poor? It
certainly was not the stay law passed by our Leg
islature at Its last session. I just have one thing
to say of that law and of those who passed it:—
They either did not understand it, or they offered
it to the poor man as an insult, and to put him
out of the notion of applying for a stay law again.
I am however charitable enough to believe the
former, that they did not understand it. "It is
hard to he poor." JUSTICE.

PENNY WISE
AND
POUND FOOLISH,
In nothing is the above more illustrated than in the
course many pursue in certain kinds of disease. In order
to save a few cents they have what they call their own
prescriptions, such as Balsam Capable, Turpentine,
little knowing the baneful influence these drugs have on
the constitution, the disgusting smell from the breath,
and, with all these disadvantages, there is no saviag of
money, as the dose has to be renewed ever and over again
until at last the condition of the patient becomes alarm
ing: then other means have to be resorted to. Read the
words of a sufferer :
Desmond A Co., 915 Race Street, Philadelphia : I appeal
to you, and if there is any earthly relief for me I Irish
you would do something for me. About eight months ago
I got into trouble. 1 took capsules, went to doctors, and
it has cost me one hundred dollars—Hest for this Medi
cine, then for that—without any benefit. A few days ago
a friend told me of the Samaritan's Gift; he said it would
certainly cure me. This is why I address you for advice.
Let the above be a warning to others. When you get
In trouble procure at once the Samaritan's Gilt, and you
