When a fire breaks out, in this place, some

John M. Bowman, esq.. retires from "the
best paper published in Huntingdon county"
and Webster T. Bair, esq., of the Shirleysburg
Herald succeeds him. The reputation of the

friend. We wish all parties success.
Nothing will so emphatically grab a man

The first number of the Camp Meeting Daily
News has reached us, brimful of matters re

every evening, during the continuance of the
camp, by W. M. Frysinger, and we hope it
may pay him better than a couple of similar
ventures did us.

entwining digits with our old time friend, W.

here who give him a hearty welcome.

Elsewhere we publish a laconic abstract of
a sermon preached in the M. E. Church, on
Sunday morning by Rev. W. C. Robbins, of
Mt. Union, and regret that our space will not
admit of a more extended synopsis. Indeed,
we regret that we cannot publish the enti i re
sermon. He is a young minister of extraor

. As quad of twelve men from the lower shops,
we learn from the Altoona Globe, with Mr. N.
F. Cunningham, formerly of this place, as
foreman, departed Saturday night for Pitts
burgh to assist in cleaning up the debris along
the railroad in the vicinity of that city. They
will begin operations about 28th street. They
will be absent from home a week or more.
Those valiant fellows who composed the
City Troop, who wanted Saperintendent Gage
to ship them to Bedford, on Sunday evening,
on their return from Altoona, tell some tre
mendous stories of adventures and hair breadth
escapes to their credulous Philadelphia com

was something after the fashion of Renophons.
A card from Mrs. Josephi^e Brunner, who
manufactures the best article of iegars, and
keeps for sale all kinds of tobacco, as well as
every good brand of foreign and domestic
segars, appears in our paper to-day. Those
who have been patronizing her recommend
her goods, and speak highly of the liberal and
courteous manner in which she is in the habit
of treating her friends and customers.
It cost Senator Peale about $5OO to recover
his horse and catch the thief. In view of the
fact that the rascal who stole it, has been v
terror to the counties of Centre and Hunting
don for several years past, we do not think it
would be more than right if these counties
would at least pay a portion of the expense
incurred in the capture. They will reap the
benefit and should help pay the damages.—

Rev. F. B. Riddle, of the Huntingdon M.
E. Church, occupied the pulpit of the M. E.
church, this place, morning and evening, Sun
day last. Good audiences listened to Mr. Rid
dle on both occasions and most favorable
comments were made. He impressed us as a
man thoroughly in earnest.—Bedfurd County

Mrs. E. M. Simonson, engaged in the con
duet of the Millinery and Fancy Goods busi
ness, at 431 Penn street, is more extensively
and favorably known, probably, than any
other person engaged in this business in
Central Pennsylvania. She is a first class
milliner and purveyor of fancy goods. She
has grown up with the business, her entire
life having been directed to it. We urge our
female friends to continue their patronage.—
They will be well treated. See her card pub
lished elsewhere.
A man named Murphy, living near Pennsyl
vania furnace,in Huntingdon county, attempted
to capture a couple of cub bears the other
day, but the juvenile bruins scooted up a tree,
and when Mr. Murphy tried to dislodge them
by pelting them with stones they raised an
outcry which brought the mother bear to the
scene, when she turned the tables on the
would-be captor of her offspring by chasing
him down the mountain, causing him to lose
a pair of shoes and a bundle in his flight, and
finally compelling him to climb a tree for
safe ty.— Cambrza _Herald.
Since Mr. Hough assumed the conduct of
the Washington House, corner of Penn and
7th streets, the establishment has drawn to
ward it many warm friends, both in Hunting
don and from the adjacent towns and districts
of the county. In the discharge of his duties
as a landlord, be has acted in a strictly con
scientious manner, leaving nothing undone
for the comfort of his guests both transient
and permanent. To everybody he gives a
square deal, and his prices are such as yield
to 'aim but a bare living profit. Give the
Washington House a trial, and you will have
no cause to regret it.
The St. Charles Hotel, Altoona, ranks among
the best establishments of the kind in the
State outside of Philadelphia. Its present
proprietor and manager, ^ Mr. M. Fitzharris,
leaves nothing undone to make his guests,
both permanent and transient, feel comfort tole
and at ease while sojourning in the - Mountain
city. And while his rooms are commodious,
well ventilated, neat and clean, and his table
supplied with all the luxuries of the season,
he charges no fancy prices. We advise our
friends and the public, when visiting Altoora,
to call at the St. Charles. They rill have no
cause to regret it.
SERMON.—Brief abstract of a sermon
preached by Rev. W. C. Robbins, in the M.
E. Church, in this place, on Sabbath last :
And God shall wipe away all tears from their
eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither
sorrow nor crying; neither shall there be any more
pain; for the former things are passed away.
Rev. 21: 4.
After some references, deduced from ancient
historical allusions to St. John, the speaker,
gave an analysis of the book of Revelations,
after which he proceeded to show that man's
true destiny is not confined to thiaworld. The
present state of being is transitory. When life
is past our bodies crumble into dust, and the
reasonable presumption is tbai. our spirits
either ascend to heaven or descend to hell.
This would constitute a nursery, a preparatory
state of being. As implied in the language of
St. Paul, ("For we know that when this earth
ly home of this tabernacle is dissolved, we
have a building, a home not made by bands,
eternal in the heavens '
") we feel assured that
we shall exist through all eternity. And God's
intellectual creatures shall retain their iden
tity or individuality. We regard this not as a
presumption, brit as a fact. In the parable of
the rich man and Lazarus how plainly is this
doctrine taught I Abraham said "Son, re
member, etc." Had not the rich man retained
his memory how nonsensical would the lang
uage addressed to him appear? The inference
is that we will remember what we did and how
we conducted ourselves here. Our destiny
lies beyond the present state of existence.
How inconvenient with an intelligent idea of
the attribute of Almighty God would any oth
er view appear ! How absurd to suppose that
our existence termina' ss at the grave. If the
soul, then, be immortal, how are we to prepare
for a blissful imrcertality ? After walking with
God an hundred years, Enoch "was taken and
was not." Elijah was also translated, without
taking death. With these exceptions all the
generations of men have passed through the
portals of death. To reach our heavenly home,
we must also pass through sickness,
and sor
row and pain. All have sinned and all must
suffer. The sinful taint engendered in our
first parents by transgression, was transmitted
through each and every successive generation.
Since Adam there never was a single instance
of immaculate humanity. No one can read
the 3d chapter of Genesis without being the :•
ed with horror at the malevolent exhibition
the power of Satan who deceived our progen
itors and dug the pit of hell. To reach our
destiney—a happy destiny—we must repent of
our sins and exercise a living faith in our
Lord Jesus Christ. In its general sense re•
pentance signifies sorrow for anything we do
amiss. In a theological sense it convicts of a
deep and'sincere contrition for violating the
commands of God, rejecting his counsels and
proving ungrateful for his boundless mercies.
From sin we turn away with loathing and hor
ror. Then we exercise faith upon the ability
and disposition of God to prepare us. Then
"being justified by faith we have peace with
God through our Lord Jesus Christ.'' All
these are qualifying conditions. No stopping
here, however. The command is : "Be ye
therefore .ferfect, h etc., and this command is as
authoritative as any in the decalogue,and it is
possible to be perfect, otherwise the command
would not have been given. [Here the doc
trine of Christian perfection was discussed.]
"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy
soul," etc. This is the sum total of the whole
matter. When justified a christian is a babe in
Christ ; when sanctified he reaches the full
stature of christian manhood. The final act
preparatory to our ultimate salvation is the
resurrection of our bodies—these identical
bodies—in a glorified condition. "All in the
grave shall hear his voice." Complicated as
is the construction of the human frame, so
many materials entering into its composition,
sometimes one part of the body, in case of
amputation, buried in one part of the world,
the trunk in another, its resurrection is a sub
ject hard to understand and a thousand theo
ries exist. Then when we reflect that our
bodies change every seven years, or are en
tirely renewed, the former having disappeared
as waste matter, we are still further perplexed.
Look, however, at the chemical changes tbro'
which all matter undergoes, its analysis and
synthesis. Place camphor in alcohol and it
is dissolved so effectually that you cannot per
ceive it. Then drop water in the mixture and
the camphor again appears. Look at.the trans
formation of a grovelling worm in the dust to
a beautiful butterfly, etc. How difficult to
finite minds the resurrection of our bodies may
appear, God, who is all-powerful, is able, as
he has promised, to do the work.
The speaker closed by a brief discussion of
the doctrine of the recognition of friends in
h aven.
THE JUNIATA VALLEY CAMP.--IlliS
camp opens on Tuesday next, and from present
indications promises to be the most successful
one since the organization of the Association.
Up to this time more tents have been taken
than during any previous year, and it is ex
pected that they will all be leased before the
opening day. There have been man) im
provements made since last year, the most
noticeable of which is the white-washing of
the tents, which gives the grounds an
inviting and cheerful appearance. During
the continuance of the camp Huntingdon will
do her full share towards swelling the attend
ance. As will be seen in another column, an
accommodation train will be run between this
place and the grounds, thus affording every
facility to our citizens to attend.
AN ESTABLISHMENT WORTHY OF EN'
COURAGEMENT.—For about twelve years our
enterprising townsman, Mr. James Simpson,
whose card appears in our paper tc-day, has
been carrying on a Foundry at which agri
cultural and ornamental work, of almost every
description has been cast, together with general
Foundry work. A visit there, and a super
ficial examination of his products ; leads us to
believe that parties in want of such articles
can do no better than by giving him a call. He
makes a specialty o 0: - namental enclosures
for lots attached to residences as well as for
lots in cemeteries. Huntingdon may feel
proud of this establishment, as it constitutes
one of the most active industries of the town.

THE JUNIATA TOWNSHIP SABBATH
SCHOOL C)i6Sßai►TlON.—Thinking a few words
concerning a Sabbath School celebration held
in Heffner's grove, along the Branch in Juni
ata township, July 28th, may be of interest to
your readers, I send the following synopsis of
the proceedings:
At 9} o'clock the Sunday :school scholars
and a host of spectators had assembled at
!lawns' school house, and proceeded in regu
lar order from there to the grove headed by
J. M. Oswalt, and Jno. arid two la
die.s bearing a line flag. Next followed D. W.
Bagshaw, with a lady on either side, bearing
a banner beautifully decorated, having printed
thereon in an artistic manner "Raystown
Branch Union Sabbath School," followed by
V. Bush, likewise between ladies with a ban
ner that had been in use 40 years, trimmed in
a beautiful manner. The Sunday School fol
lowed in regular order, the Superintendent,
Adam Bagshaw, acting as Marshal. When
they reached the grove they found a stand
beautifully decorated with evergreen wreaths,
boquets of flowers, &c.. prepared fbr the speak
ers and seats for the audieuce. Revd's. Focht,
Dole, Hunter and Mr. Isaac Hatfield, together
with the Stperintendent and his assistant,
took the stand and as soon as the audience
was seated, the Superintendent announced the
hymn, "Jesus keep me near the cross." Rev.
Focht read a portion of the 35th chapter of
Isaiah, followed by prayer by Rev. Dole. The
Superintendent then made a few introductory
remarks and introduced Rev. Hunter. Mr. 11.
spoke of the goodness of God in giving a boun
tiful harvest ; in giving this joyous meeting
in this beautiful place ; this should be a day
of universal joy. If any people should rejoice,
the people along this Branch should, you are
truly a favored people, free from strikes, &c.
I don't see a sorrowful face end hope I won't
to-day. Singing, "Jesus loves me." Rev.
Focht spoke of the origen and progress of the
Sabbath School ; its great importance, and
urged all christians to lend it their aid. Sing
ing, "We're going home to-morrow." Mr.
Hatfield was then introduced and said he could
not do the subject justice, but urged upon all
to gather the harvest that was now ready. We
should be thankful for this bountiful display
of the goodness of God ; go to work now in
earnest for the Sabbath School cause. Sing
ing, 'Hold the Fort."
Rev. Dole said a few words would suffice
from him, as the children would sooner go to
the table. He urged teachers to be faithful,
to trust the Lord of the Harvest, parents to
give a helping hand ; children to attend reg
ularly, and asked God to bless the labors of
the Sunday School w orkers along the Branch.
The Superintendent gave out the hymn,
"Shall we gather at the river," and asked the
table committee to prepare the table, during
which time the attention of the crowd. was
kept by singing and some remarks by Revs.
Hunter and Focht. Dinner was soon announc
ed, when the assembly, numbering about 400,
marched to a table, about 200 feet long, spread
with the choice things of the land which, after
a blessing being asked by Rev. Hunter, all
partook of and there was an abundance left.
As the afternoon was intended for festivities
all were soon preparing to enjoy themselves,
but a rain coming up all soon basted to J.
Heffner's large new barn, the bridge, school
house, Ise. The rain continuing, the old folks
left for home, and many of the young ones too.
There was, however, quite a crowd of young
sters left who enjoyed themselves only as
country lads and lasses can till dusk. There
being singing in the school house at lamp
light all then repaired there, and so ended a
day long to be remembered. It was truly cue
of the greatest days ever witnessed along the
Branch. D. S. B.
FIRE !—About six o'clock on Saturday
evening last the cry of "fire" startled our cit
izens, and the alarm being sounded on the
engine house belt, there was a general rush of
the firemen for their apparatus. The fire was
ascertained to be in the ware room attached
to W. S. Taylor's store, on Penn street, be
tween Sixth and Seventh. When the firemen
reached the scene, the indications were that
the building could not be saved, but in a little
while the "Huntingdon" began to play, and in
an incredible short space of time the flames
were extinguished. The building in which
the fire originated contained two barrels of
coal oil, three barrels of molasses, lard, rags,
and other inflammable articles which added
to the fury of the flames. The ware room is
damaged beyond repair, but the main building
escaped the flames, and what injury it sustain
ed was done by water and the breaking in of
a window sash or two in order to give the
firemen a better opportunity to play upon the
interior of the building, which was thought
to be on fire on account of the dense volumes
of smoke issuing from every opening in it.
The goods were removed, in tolerably good
condition, to places of safety in the neighbor
hood.
The adjoining residences of W. McK.
esq., on the east, and J. M. Maguire,
sq., on the west, were thought to be in da.ng
,tr of destruction, and a portion of the house
hold effects of these gentlemen were removed,
bat it was soon apparent that our -boys" were
masters of the situation and that these build
ings would escape injury. The gardens at
tached to them, however, did cot fare so well.
they being almost totally destroyed by the
crowd that gathered in them, and they looked
as if an army of Western grasshoppers bad
encamped in them and taken a "square meal"
off the vegetables. Most of this destruction
could have been avoided if sight-seers and
loungers had kept ont of them.
How the fire originated is a mystery, but it
is the general belief that it was the work of
an incendiary, and if so we hope he may be
apprehended and punished as his black-heart
ed crime deserves. We understand that two
previous attempts had been made to fire this
place within the past month. The building
belongs to the Messrs. March, and we under
stand was insured in the lE,na, for $l,OOO,
which amount will not cover the loss.
Mr. Taylor carried an insurance of $7,000,
which is ample to cover any losses be may
have sustained.
During the progress of the fire we observed
a number of persons, who were not firemen,
ordering the men at the pipe to play on differ
ent parts of the building ; we heard four or
five at one time ordering the pipeman, on
Penn street, to play on as many parts of the
building. This is altogether out of place, and
our firemen should pay no attention to the
commands of any one but their Director, who
is presumedto know what is best in such cases.
ART BUBLISITING.—Few people are
aware of the wonderful progress that Art has
made in this country during the last quarter
of a century. It is but a few decades since,
that those who desired to beautify and adorn
their homes, were obliged to depend almost
entirely on foreign artists. But such a state
of affairs in this age of progress and improve
ment could not last long with the great Amer
ican people. Genius from the East to the
West, from the North to the Gulf of Mexico ois
the south, answered the demand foi beauty,
taste and refinement, and to-day our leading
artists are not surpassed by the leading modern
masters of Art in Europe.
Great Art publishing establishments have
sprung up, andby various processes the finest
and most expensive paintings are reproduced
in all their elegance and beauty, and at a
price within the means of the masses. So
that no one need be without the refining in
fluence of beautiful pictqres at home.
Among the progressive leading Art Publish
ing firms of the country, we take pleasure in
mentioning George Stinson & Co., of Portland,
Maine ; they were among the first in the busi•
ness, and we can only understand the colossal
proportions their trade has assumed by remem
bering that this is a great and mighty Nation
of nearly fifty million people. We cannot
better illustrate the magnitude of their busi
ness than to state the amount of money paid
by them for postage stamps during the year
1876 ; we have the figures direct from the firm,
or we should think there was some mistake.
They paid for postage stamps during the year
1876, thirty-three thousand one hundred and
four dollars and ninety-two cents ($33,104.92)
and, in connection with this it should. be
remembered that only small orders were sent
by mail, the larger going by express and
freight. George Stinson & Co's. agents are to
be found in every State in the Union and Do
minion of Canada, and in every county with
scarcely an exception.
Long since, this enterprising firm recognized
the value of printer's ink judiciously used in
advertising, and they inform us that without
it they could never have extended their busi
ness as it is to-day, in three times the number
of years. A short time since they paid in a
single day twenty-four thousand dollars
(24,000) on a contract for newspaper advertis
ing. They evidently long since found the
road to success and have neither turned to the
right nor the left. Three things are necessary
for eminent success in business. First,
standard honest goods that the people gener
ally need and desire,—let them be the best,
whatever the line of business. Second, let
your prices be reasonable—as low as as possi
ble. Third, let the people know what you
have, and what you can do, by liberal and
persistent advertising, and you will find low
prices, made known and proved, will bring
trade that will give a larger income than can
be made is any other way.

A Result of Obstructed Digestion.
Amongtbe hurtful consequences of obstructed
digestion, is the impoverishment of the vital
fluid which not only produces dangerous organ
ic weakness, but according to the best medical
authorities, sometimes causes asphyxia, it is
apparent that to improve the quality of the
blood by promoting digestion and assimilation,
is a wise precautioL. Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is precisely the remedy for this purpose,
since it stimulates the gastric juices, conquers
those bilious and evacuative irregularities
which interfere with the digestive processes,
promotes assimilation of the food by the blood,
and purifies as Well as enriches it. The signs
of improvement in health in consequence of
using the Bitters are speedily apparent in an
accession of vigor, a gain in bodily substance,
and a regular and active performance of every
physical function. [auglo-Im.

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 Copabia, Turpentine, &c.,
little knowing the baneful influenet, these drugs have on
the constitution, the disgusting smell from the breath,
and, with all these disadvantages, there Is no saving of
money, as the dose has to be renewed over 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 at Co, 915 Race Street, Philadelphia : I appeal
to you, and if there is any earthly relief for me I wish
you would do something for me. About eight months ago
I got into trouble. I took capsules, went to doctors, and
it has cost ins one hundred dollars—first for this medi
cine, then for that—without any benefit. A few days ago
a friend told me of the. Samaritan's Gift; Le 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 Gift, and you
will be all right in two or three days, for remember the
bad erects that follow the use of these injurious drugs are
often worse than the original trouble. Price--Male pack

PURELY VEGETABLE,
containing those Southern Roots and Herbs, which an all
wise Providence has placed in countries where Liver Dis

The SYMPTOMS of Liver Complaint are a bitter or bad
taste in the mouth; Pain in the back, sides cr joints, oft
en mistaken for Rheumatism; Sour Stomach; Loss of Ap
petite; Bowels alternately costive and lax; Headache;
Loss of memory, with a painful sen3ation of having failed
to do something which ought to have been done; Debility,
Low Spirits, a thick yellow appearance of the Skin and
Eyes, a dry cough often mistaken for Consumption.
Sometimes many of these symptoms attend the disease,
at others very few ; but the LIVER, the largest organ in
the body, is generally the seat of the disease, and it not
