The space between the Post Office and Benj.
Jacob's store, used as a surface for posting

the Post Office, is intolerable.

troubled him.
We hope our Republican friends will not
forget the important matter of registering and

when they are in danger of being neglected
altogether. Attend to them at once.

the property and franchises of the Company,
collect subscriptions, settle claims, solicit ad
ditional subscriptions and complete the en

the best interests of the creditors, debtors, and

Stewart Walker, of Barree township, this
county, the boss horse thief of the country, is
reported to have escaped from the Bellefonte
jail on Thursday night of last week, where he
was incarcerated for the theft of Senator
Peale's blooded mare, a notice of which ap
peared in the JOURNAL two or three weeks ago.
Since the above was put in type we learn
from the Bellefonte Republican that Walker
was recaptured, in the neighborhood of Pine
Grove Mills, early on Saturday morning.
We learn from the Democratic Watchman,
of Bellefonte, that Mr. Tuten, editor of the
Republican, of that place. was brutally as
saulted, one day last week, by a man named
W. S. Wagner. Mr. Tuten copied an article
from the Altoona Globe, of a recent date, which
Wagner thought reflected on him. This thing
of every blackguard attacking editors is be
coming too common, and if some of them were
shot down it would have the salutary effect
in detering other bullies from trying the ex
periment.
Perry county, we learn from the New Bloom
field Intelligenccr has received a "professional"
call from a swindling doctor. He drove a
magnificent turnout, represented that he was
from Germany and affected to effect his
miraculous cures by the aid of a small chain,
the links of which were manufactured from
equal parts of copper and zinc, and was to be
worn around the neck of the patient. He also
had a belt to be worn around the body, and
one around the leg rbove the knee. sear
Hunter's hill, within a radius of two and one
half miles, lie victimized the farmers to the
amount of $73, by his promises and palaver.

Notwithstanding the ups and downs which
business men have experienced since the panic
commenced, Mr. John Bogey, dealer in dry
goods, notions, trimmings, hosiery, fancy
goods, groceries, boots, shoes, etc., 421 Wash
ington street, has held his own remarkably
well, and is still engaged in the sale of the
articles above enumerated. Those who have
dealt with him, can boar witness to the fact
that he sells goods of the best kind at as low
prices as they can be sold. His expenses
being light, no rent to pay, and other expenses
of carrying on being unworthy of notice, all
can feel assured that from him they can buy
to the best advantage.
Ta yesterday morning's GLOBE our Huntingdon
correspondent reflected upon one of Hunting
don's merchants in connection with a fire at
that place on Saturday. We have had a visit
from the merchant in question, Mr. Taylor,
who feels greatly aggrieved at the publication,
pronouncing it utterly taise and entirely un
called for. We hasten to make the amende
honorable, and we have no doubt our corres
pondent will promptly set Mr. Taylor right on
the record. In closing we have only to say
that our correspondent certainly has grossly
mi3construed facts in his communication to
11F. or else the statement of Mr. Taylor's
neighbor, W. McKnight Williamson, esq., who
accompanied Mr. Taylor on his visit to us,
has strangely misled us. We hope, for the
good of ourselves and the public in general
that no such communications will ever again
be directed to us, unless they can be substan
tiated by facts.—Altoona Globe, of Sunday.
REMARKS OF GEN. IN ILLIAMSON.—
From the Tyrone Herald of last week, we clip
the following report of the speech of our dis
tinguished friend and townsman, Gen. John
Williamson, delivered on the occasion of the
dedication of Blair county's new Court House :
This has been, my friends, an exceedingly
pleasant time to me. Beautiful eulogiums
have been passed upon the men who moved
for the division of the old county of Hunting
don, but as I opposed it, I suppose I am not
entitled to any compliments. (Mr. Banks.—
Let byegones be byegones). W.—Yes, that is
what Jno. Taylor said, and I must go on, as
the sailor said, when in the play of Othello
the Moor of Venice lago made Othello believe
that Desdemona had left the handkerchief in
Cassia's house, and Othello cried, "The hand
kerchief, the handkerchief which did an
Egyptian to my mother give I" There was a
sailor down in the pit and he thought Othello
was hunting for a handkerchief (but it was
another thing Othello wanted to find), and he
hallowed out, "Stranger, blow your nose with
your fingers and let the play go on 1"
(Prolonged laughter and applause.)
We, of the old county of Huntingdon, never
dreamed, when Blair was taken from us, that
she would ever attain the magnificence and
grandeur that she now possesses, and we are
glad to greet her now as our younger sister,
as we of the bar of Huntingdon county are
always glad to greet Blair county members as
brothers in a profession upon which the very
institutions of our country depend. It was
the lawyers of the country who made the great
Declaration of Independence, and at this day
if you seek for integrity and hospitality it is
found at the bar. The law of this country is
its preservative quality. It is the fountain of
all justice. Its administration is always look
ed to with respect and I know of none who
receive a greater degree of respect from
the community than the Judiciary of the
State; but I am reminded of one occasion,
when this respect was not 'manifested a
la mode. It was at the first nisi pries court
that was ever held in Huntingdon county.
It was held by Thomas Smith, and the bar
was in one end of old Mrs. Haines' bar
room. The whisky was at one end, the Su
preme Court at the other (Laughter). There
was an old man who had carried chain with
Mr. Smith many times over these mountains,
and he thought, as he had slept out with the
old judge time and again, that he would be a
little familiar with him, when he came into
this nisi Fritts court, so he walked up to one
end of the bar and asked Mrs. Haines to give
him some home-made sugar and a pint of
whisky, then he walked up into the bar of the
court, (the bar was a pole across the room),
and says to the judge, "Take a blurge o' this
afore ye begin I" He had forgotten the differ
ence between a surveyor and a Judge of the
Supreme Court. The Judge said, "Sheriff,
take this man to jail," and they took him up
to an old tan yar.l at the upper end of Hun
tingdon and covered him up in an empty vat,
and that was the first case disposed of in the
courts of Huntingdon county. [General
Williamson here went on to speak in praise of
the elegant public buildings which have taken
the place of the primitive buildings used in
former days for the administration of justice
and the punishment of criminals. He then
referred to the habits of early lawyers of this
country]. When I came to the bar in 1819, I
found the members of the bar very different
from what they are now. There were some
learned men, too, in those days, whose memo
ries I revere to this day, but it used to be that
one was not well equipped in the law unless he
knew how to judge between good whisky and
new whisky ; but it is not so now ; I believe
the lawyers are all sober men now, and lead
ers in the temperance cause. Gentlemen, I
feel deeply the honor conferred upon me by
you this day, and I have been highly gratified
with the exercises of this dedication. Your
speakers have carried my mind back to earlier
periods and more pleasant times, but we have
still the same justice, the same equity, the
same learning and the same christianity that
we ever had, and on the whole I believe we
are improving in these respects. I think you
for your attention.
"WHAT IS A 'HOODLUM ?"—During
the past week or two we have beard the above
question repeatedly asked, and the following
answer we find in the Philadelphia Ledger :
The word "hoodlum" is used on the Pacific
coast as a descriptive term for idle young
rowdies of the kind that make up the gangs
of "corner loungers" of our Atlantic cities.
They stand about in groups in the disorderly
parts of all towns, and are very free with their
foul tongues in making offensive remarks upon
all persons passing by. If spoken to about
their conduct, they reply by repeating their
insults, and indulging in other ruffianism, in
cluding profanity, obscenity, and, not infre
quently, actual assault with fists, clubs and
stones. This tribe of rascally boys and young
men the Californians call "hoodlums." There
is no peculiarity about the matter but the
name. There are plenty of just such fellows
about the outskirts of our large towns, and
some small ones too. The "hoodlum" is the
boy whose parents or guardian permit to grow
up and pass the years from fifteen to twenty
without work at any useful occupation, idling
away his time by lounging about bar-rooms,
street corners and "on the lots" with other
young rowdies and blackguards. They are
always troublesome and sometimes dangerous,
for they always make up a large proportion of
every mob of rioters. Theirs are the idle and
vicious hands that are always ready for "the
devil's work."
TRAMPS.—The authorities of a number
of counties are enforcing the act passed by
our Legislature, May 8, 1876, which provides
that any constable or police officer may, on
notice by an inhabitant, or on his own view,
arrest any vagrant, and take him before any
committing magistrate. The magistrate may
commit him for a terw not less than thirty
days and not exceeding six months, "to labor
upon any country farm or upon the roads and
highways of any city, township or borough,
or in any house of correction, poor house,
work house or common jail, or to the super
visors or street commissioners and overseers
of the poor of the respective county, city,
borough or township wherein such persons
shall be found." Here are powers which, if
exercised, are ample to clear every township
in the county of tramps. "All persons going
about from door to door, or placing themselves
in streets, highways or other roads to beg or
gather alms, and all other persons wandering
about and begging, who have no fixed place
of residence in the township, ward or borough,"
are declared to be vagrants for all purpose of
the act. There is no necessity to wait till
some robberry or other outrage is committed
by these peripatetic pests ; they may be arrest
ed on sight, wherever found. Neither is it
necessary to send those arrested to the county
seat ; they may be put to work on the public
highways where they are taken, and thus
made to be of service to the community off
which they seek to live. It will be found that
wherever these arrests are made the occasion
for making them grow less and less.
SHOOTING AT GLASS BALLS.—On
Monday evening last a number of our sports
men met on the fair grounds and indulged in
a few shots at glass balls a la Bogardus. The
balls are sprung from a trap, and hen in mid
air are fired at by the marksman. The score
on Monday evening was as follows :

The mammoth AUCTION OF KEY
STONE BOOTS & SuoEs,by the Assign
ees of H. S. Wharton, begins Mon
day, August 20th, at 1 o'clock, at
Brown's Carpet Store. Measure
family and be on hand. Dealers in

sacrifice.
Strike for MONTGOMERY'S clothing store
when you want a dress or business Suit made
to order. 100 samples to select from. Special
attention given to taking measures. Good fits
guarranteed.
SELL.—One of our exchanges gives the
following bit of gratuitious advice to our
farmers: We notice that the old trick of hold
ing on to the wheat for high prices is again in
vogue aiuong our farmers. They arc telling
fabulous stories of au unexpected general
European war, when wheat shall be twice its
present price, and when every farmer who now
ho';p. on to his wheht shall grow immensely
ri. It is all nonsense ; now is the time to
sell: The prices are good ; if you hold on to
your wheat you not only risk a decline in the
price, but you lose the interest on the value
which it represents every day that you hold it.
It will require a much higher price to com
pensate you for this loss. There will be no
general European war, and if there were it
would not have the supposed influence on the
grain market. Besides in holding your grain
your are blocking the wheels of material pros
perity all over the land, and putting far away
the good time coming. You need the money
for your grain, to buy with, and the merchant
needs it from your hands to put new life into
trade. Whatever you may hare to sell, sell it
now, or some fine morning you will wake up
to find that wheat has fallen and you are justly
a loser."
ROBBERY, CAPTURE AND ESCAPE.—On
Monday last, in the neighborhood of Spruce
Creek, as three tramps were wending their
way towards the setting sun, the idea entered
the heads of two of the party to rob their fel
low traveller of what surplus ducats he might
have about him. They no sooner arrived at
this conclusion than they made an attack
upon him, felled him to the ground by a few
well directed blows, and rifled his pockets of
about three dollars. Information was made
against them before a Justice at Spruce Creek,
and the Constable of that place arrested them,
tied them, and brought them to this place on
the 4.15 P. M. 'rain, and started with them for
Castle Benderson, but when nearing that
bastile one of the prisoners got his knife out
of his pocket and in a twinkle the cord was
severed and both prisoners started on a run
towards Allegheny street, which they passed
in safety, plunged into the canal and across
it, and then took to the river, which they
forded at a double-quick, and then broke for
the "big timber" on the other side, where they
were pretty safe from arrest. Tho prisoners
were half-grown boys, but though young in
years their conduct proved them old m sin.
A SUCCESSFUL ENTERPRISE.—We are
pleased to learn that the Ardenheim Tile,Drain
Pipe and Terra Cotta Works are a decided
success, so far as the manufacture of first-class
articles are concerned. The proprietors,
Messrs. Anderson & Schneider, have just
burnt a kiln, and we have it from competent
judges that the quality of tile and drain pipe ta
ken from it is surpassed by no other establish
ment in the country. They have two kinds of
clay—yellow and blue—in close proximity to
their works, either of which is well adapted to
the manufacture of these articles, and Mr.
Schneider,baving bad several years experience
in the business, knows exactly how to wrok it.
By invitation of our friend Anderson, about 30
of our citizens visited the works, on Friday
last, and iaterviewed the modes operandi.
IMPORTANT.—Many grocerymen and
other dealers in tobacco, are in the habit of
cutting plugs of tobacco up into small pieces
and retailing them from cases, jars, etc., which
is a technical violation of the Internal Revenue
laws. The law allows retail dealers to sell
only from packages properly stamped. Tobac
co can only be retailed from stamped pack.
ages, and to sell it otherwise than from the
original stamped packages they are liable to
seizure. Peremptory orders are issued to
Revenue Agents and Deputy Collectors of
Internal Revenue to seize all tobacco not
found in stamped packages. Penalities are
inflicted for not destroying stamps on cigar
boxes and tobacco packages as soon as emp
tied. If all engaged in the sale of tobacco
and cigars read this and comply with the
requirement they will save money and trouble.
Strike! STRIKE ! STRIKE II I For MONT
GOMERY'S clothing store where men's and
boys' ready-made clothing is being sold re
markably low in order to make room for fall
goods. Persons desiring to purchase anything
in that line of goods will find it to their ad
vantage to call at the store, corner of sth and
Washington streets.
MURDER WILL OUT,
A few years ago "August Flower" was dis

known to their friends how easily and quickly
they bad been cured by its use. The great
merits of GREEN'S ArorST FLOWER became
heralded through the country by one suffer to
another, until, without advertising, its sale
has become immense, Druggists in EVERY
TOWN in the United States are selling it. No
person suffering with Sour Stomach, Sick
Headache, Costiveness, palpitation of the
Heart, indigestion, low spirits, etc., can take

Early Iron Enterprises of' Huntingdon
County.
I, MILTON S. LI I LE'
Having recently been engaged in investigating
the history of the early iron enterprises of Hun
tingdon county, and in furnishing information for
a work upon the iron manufactures of Pennsyl
vania, now in course of preparation by Mr. James
M. Swank, Secretary of flop American Iron and
Steel Association, Philadel:lia, I have gathered
many facts in addition to chose that will be used
by that gentleman and that have not been hereto
fore published. The building of the fir , t furnaces
and forges in this county is scarcely within the
recollection of any person now living, and it is
remarkable how nearly correct knowledge upon
the subject has passed from the minds of the
present generation. At the beginning of my
inquiries I was disposed to rely upon reminiscences
and traditions given me by the oldest inhabitants,
but I soon discovered that I was being led into
numerous errors, and was convinced that these
sources of information, especially with relation to
events occurring as early as the beginning of the
present century wer,, entirely unreliable. I therefore
sought and found data supported by written and
cotemporary evidence.
BEDFORD FORGE.
That there over existed a forge of this name
seems to have been almost, if not altogether, for
gotten. It stood upon the site of the more recent
Melinda forge, about four miles south of Bedford
furnace, on the Aughwick. The name was changed
at the erection of the latter forge, and it is probably
for this reason that the old one has so nearly passed
from human memory.
Bedford furnace was built by the Bedford com
pany, consisting of Edward Itidgley, Ueorge Ash
loan and Thomas Cromwell, in 1785, and the forge
was built by the same company soon afterwards.
It must have been but a small structure, containing
but one fire, as the foryenian's name is given as
Archy Brison. Ile is mentioned in such a way as
to give the impression that he was the solitary
workman in the establishment, at least the only
one who deserved to be designated as skilled at
the business. Besides, the furnace was very small,
five feet at the bosh, with a stack not over seven
teen feet in height, yet it produced more metal
than the forge could work up, some of it being
made into castings. The bar iron was at first
transported over the Allegheny mountains, to
Pittsburg, on the backs of horses and mules, and
afterwards taken down the Juniata on arks. The
furnace and forgo were the first erected west of the
Susquehanna.
BARREE FORGE
This forge "was in operation, making iron, in
1793 and 'Ol, and a regular business of wood
chopping, charcoaling, &c., in progress." It was
built by Greeniserry Dorsey and Edward Barthol
omew. There was then no furnace within less
than thirty miles of it. Why was it erected in
this isolated position and from whence was the
metal obtained that was worked in it ? To this
question, Gen. S. Miles Green, who has possession
of the books of the Dorsey family, replies : Centre
furnace was built in 1700 and 'Ol by (len. John
Patton and Col. Samuel Miles, two Revolutionary
soldiers, who were intimate acquaintances and
friends of Greenberry Dorsey. From them Dorsey
purchased metal to make iron at Barree forge,
hauling it in wagons a distance of thirty miles
over rough roads. It is probable that the forge
was built for the purpose of working the metal
made at Centre furnace.
HUNTINGDON FURNACE
This furnace is usually said to have been built
by John Gloninger and George Anshutz, and this
may be strictly correct, but they did not build it
as joint owners. It was erected in 1796, upon
land belonging to Mordecai Massey and for which
he had patents. On the 10th of August, 1808,
Massey conveyed to Gloninger an interest in the
lands, the deed containing the following recital :
"Whereas the said Mordecai Massey and John
Gloninger by certain articles of agreement have
agreed to erect and did erect a furnace in partner
ship," &c.
ile then conveys to Gloninger all of the lands,
"excepting and reserving the one fourth part of
said furnace and lands which he the said Mordecai
Massey has since sold unto George Shoeuberger,"
&c. On the same day Massey conveyed to Shoen
berger the one fourth reserved in the above men
tioned deed. This seems to have been the be
ginning of Shoenberger's connection with the
furnace.
On the 30th of Jane, 1814, the Assignees of
Martin Dubs, who had made an assignment for
the benefit of creditors, and who must have ob
tained his interest from Gloninger, conveyed to
George Anshuts all of Dubs' interest, excepting
and reserving the one fourth, and on the 10th of
March, 1825, Gloninger conveyed to Anshutz all
of hie interest, excepting and reserving the one
fourth. These deeds were made to Anshutz in
pursuance an agreement between Gloninger,
Dubs and himself, dated Nov. 11th, 1808, in which
Gloninger and Dubs, "did agree to admit the said
George Anshuts into the partnership aforesaid
and to let him have the one fourth part of the
Iluntinglicn furnace," Ac. Thus it seems that
Anshutz had no interest until 1809, and no title
till 1814. _ _
Ansbutz commenced poor, "with a wheel-barrow,"
it is said; Gloningor lived in Lebanon,and Massey
was a large land owner. The truth seems to be
that Ansbutz built the furnace with Glonieger's
money on Massey's ground.
JUNIATA FORGE.
The land upon which Juniata forge sttaids was
patented to Andrew Anderson, April 22nd, 1794;
conveyed by him to Peter Shoenberger, June 13th,
of the same year, and by tie latter to George
Shoenberger, September 27th, 1800. On this tract
Peter Shoenberger laid out the town of Petersburg,
the plan of which was recorded May 28th, 1795.
As to the time of the erection of the forge, we
find that it was built prior to 1805. On the 29th
of January, of that year, Samuel Fahnestock, of
Lancaster, and George Shoenberger entered into
an agreement, which contains the following: "The
said Samuel Fahnestock, for himself, his heirs,
Ac., doth grant, bargain and sell unto the said
George Shoenberger, his heirs, .ko., all his misty
or equeal share of a certain forge (called Juniata
forge) situate in West township, Huntingdon
county," Ac. From the best information that can
be obtained, it appears that the forge was tailt
the previous year, 1804, by Shoenberger and
Fahnestock.

A Result of' Obstruoted Digestion.
Among the hurtful consequences of obstructed
digestion, is the impoverishment of the vital
tlu id 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 precaution. 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.

late wife of the ion. Joseph Stryker, now U.

This was a death under peculiar trying circum
stances. This estimable lady was a native of Schene,-
tady, N. Y., and at the time of her death was a
guest among the relatives of her husband. Only
two weeks before her decease, she bad arrived with
a sister's daughter, in apparently good health, and
in quite cheerful spirits. Suddenly she was pros
trated by sickness on the 3d of August, and, des
pite the diligent efforts of her many friends, on
the Bth inst. she fell into a complete stupor from
which she did not recover, even for an instant.
This stupor, commencing on Monday, A. M., the
6th inst., continued, uninterrupted, until she died.
Her separation from her absent husband, on duty,
at his post under the Government, was a severe
trial to her. She had found it impossible after
trying it, to endure the climate of Brazil with her
husband and yielding to the imperative necessity
she had returned to New York about two years
ago. During that time she had not seen her hus
band. She strove nobly to bear her cross, and, by
Divine grace, was enabled to do it patiently with
Christian submission. Everything that her friends
could do was done for her recovery, but in vain.
She had, during her illness and until her death,
the presence and aid of her sister's husband and
daughter. In the midst of friends and relatives
she passed the closing hours of her life on earth,
and left behind her good hope that she had passed
from a bed of suffering to that world where there
is no suffering, nor tears, nor death, but everlast
ing life and joy. She was about 43 years of age.
Her remains were taken, by her brother-in-law, J.
B. Clute, to Schenectady for burial.
