It will soon be Thanksgiving and then the turkey will be done for. Red is a sign of danger, whether f,,und on a railroad or a man's nose. COICIS Ere numerous, and physicians feel that business is improving. An occasional brick pavement is going down in West Huntingdon. The last fly of the season may now be seen wandering about the window. "That girl of mine" is the last acquisition to the stock of slang literature. Judge Watson, of Bucks county, will pre side at our Court, next week. Huntingdon is making provision to support her poor tinting the approaching Winter. If you want Wedding Invitations—beautiful nod cheap—go to the JOURNAL Store. tf The people who attended Court last week frequented the printing offices very little. Our cash receipts have been distressingly slim during Court. Hurry up, delinquents. John T. esq., crew the Sharp's rifle that was chanced off in this place last week. Children are counting the Loqrs to Xmas. Lay by your little change to gratify their long ing hearts. The schools are now in operation, Mr. Scnoolmaster, what are you do' g to make the system popular? The new Baptist church at Saltillo will be dedicated on Sunday next. Rev. A. K. Bell, D. D., will be present. We learn from the Orbisonia Leader that the new Methodist church, at Shirleysburg, is ap proaching completion. The promenades beyond 15th streeton Wash ington, after night fall, are not as numerous as they were a few weeks ago. Tobacco is pushing itself up the Juniata.— In the course of a year or two it will be ex tensively cultivated in this region. The Orbisonia Leader was not issued this week, and its patrons failed to be treated to a reprint of the JOURNAL'S item column. The men who advertise do the business all over the world. The old sticks who refuse to do it set around and grumble at the hard times. Constable Westbrook arrested Ed. Fisher , on Friday night last, and locked him up in Fort Henderson, to answer the charge of forgery. The attention of merchants is called to the advertisement of J. B. Eck's Broom and Brush Vactory in to-day's taper. lie deserves en couragement. The Primitive Christian people are getting out a large edition of the Brethren almanac which will he ready for deliver.; in the course of a few days. Tramps were plenty on Sunday last, and they perambulated the streets in squads of from three to six importuning our citizens for something to eat. The scaffolding - has been removed from -.about the spire on the Baptist church, which enables one to get a good view of that sym metical piece of mechanism. It makes a fine appearance. A bite from a rattlesnake is sometimes not more dangerous than a severe cough or cold. A well-merited reputation has Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup, and this remedy is sol•' by all druggists. Price, 25 cents. A ITnion Thanksgiving service will be held in the :4. E. Church, on Thursday morning next, at 101 o'clock. Rev. A. Nelson liollifield will preach the sermon. The public are cor dially invited. A letter has been received by the friends of Col. Jim Milliken, who lately left Hollidays burg between two suns, dated at Queenstown, Ireland. He is supposed to be on his way to join the Turkish army. How are you, Milli ken Pasha? The Local Netce and the Cambria Freeman have established a mutual admiration society , between them. While the passing compli iuents are deserved the persistency to which they stick to the "you tickle me and I'll tickle you" policy cannot fail to amuse the reader. Look out for the fish baskets they are nearly ripe. Let the law be enforced against every man who violates it. Every effort is being made to stock our streams with fish and no nian—slAould be allowed to set the law at de fiance tc the injury of every one in the com munity. The Altoona Globe's "Romance" was very wide of the mark, and in very bad taste. If the facts had been correctly stated it would have been extremely questionable whether a gentleman's private affairs should be dragged bctore the public in such a cruel and heartless manner. There should be a Literary Society or two org-wized in every school district in the county for the purpose of furthering literary pursuits during the Winter, and every teacher, who fails to take a part, ought to be given a wide berth when next Winter's teachers are to be selected. It is said there are 1500 tramps, on the Penn sylvania railroad between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. Enough to eat out all the "vil lages" on the line. What if they should all drop down on Ardenheim ? They would eat it up terra-cotta works and all and it wouldn't make "a square meal." A young lady remarked to us the other day that there were "no young gentlemen in Hun tingdon, because every discreditable scrape that comes to the surface finds all those who mould be gentlemen in it." This is rough on the would be young gentlemen ! they know Vitt-ther it is true or not. A rumor reached this place, one evening last week, that John Bell, a colored youth of this town, better known as "Satan,' had been killed by the cars in the vicinity ofLewistown. While his friends were lamenting his sudden taking off "Satan" walked into their midst worth half a dozen mangled "coons." We do wish some of our delinquent sub scribers would bring us some six or eight bushels of Early or Late Rose potatoes. If they cannot pay money they ought certainly not to hesitate to pay in tubers. We will e'- low five or ten cents more a bushel for Rose potatoes than for any other variety. There will be quite a number of candidates for the County Superintency of Common Schools at the next election, which will be held on the 2rd Monday of May, if we recollect correctly. As far as we are concerned we are for the most earnest, active man, the man with the most git-up•gii. No man, without snap, need apply. The Twice-a-Week, of Mifflintown, has csrs pended. It was an excellent semi-weekly, but it had too much opposition. There is nothing in newspapers now. There are not a dozen in the State that are paying and yet every felkiw who can write two consecutive sen tences without balking wants to go into the newspaper business. Hollidaysburg young ladies, when insulted on the street by young blackguards, don't run and scream, but they sensibly catch the scoundrel and give him a trouncing. The half-grown hoodlums, iu this place, who oc cupy the street corners night after night, and make indecent expressions as fema!es pass them, should be treated in a similar manner A boy about eleven years of age, left or was stolen from his parents in Altoona, six weeks ago. and since then nothing has been heard of him. Ile is of light complexion, rather large for his age, and had the initials of his name, S. L., marked in indelible ink on his arm. Edward Lippert., his father, is very anxious for his return. Ills address is Altc , _na, Pa. If you think work is scarce just go down to the loafers' re..eat, in the neighborhood of the depot, and try to hire some one of the fixtures there to do a little job for you, and you will come away satisfied that the cry of scarcity of work is all a sham. We tried it on Saturday last, and every one of the half-dozen I hat we attempted to employ was "busy" loafing on the sunny side of the depot and complaining of the hard times. Death, for the first time, on Tuesday of last week, entered the family circle of Rev. Jesse R. Akers and bore away one of the twins so well known and much admired by our West Huntingdon people. The immediate cause of the appearance of the grim monster was whoop ing cough. We deeply sympathize with the bereaved parents in their sore affliction. Mr. Akers and family intended to leave for their far off western home on the day of the sad occurrence. The raids on game are without parallel and the people who run the risk of being shot for a deer, or a rabbit, or a pheasant, or may be a skunk, are too numerous to mention. It is but a short time since we heard of some "greeny" pulling up to shoot a "grouney" and when in the act of pulling the trigger he dis covered the object of his aim to be a six foot sportsman. There are about three out of every five who go gunning totally unfit to handle a deadly weapon. From the Osceola Reveille of last week we learn that the extensive coal operators, Messrs. Whitehead & Co., of that locality have suc ceeded in securing some seven hundred con tiguous acres of coal land from three tracts owned by John Patton, esq., of Curwensville, Messrs P. &A. Flynn and Adam Keeth. This fine addition to their already extensive coal fields will enable these enterprising operators to push forward their operations with increased energy. The many friends of our fellow towns man, Mr. Whitehead, will be pleased to learn of his good luck in securing these rich coal fields. Sylvester F. Wilson, who made such a hub bub as a ticket scalper, in Philadelphia and Camden, during the Centennial, has been on trial in the latter city, for conspira7 to cheat and defraud railroad corporations, and has been acquitted. The trial lasted several weeks. Wilson evidently acted badly and deserved punishment if the testimony is to be believed. As long as be purchased unused tickets from honest buyers and sold them he was entitled to sympathy, but when he went into altering tickets, and forging passes, if he did so, then he deserved to be punished. It looks as if lie had escaped through the merest technicalities. Judge Fisher, of the York county bench, announced the other day that thereafter he would, in view of the expense entailed upon the county by the evil of intemperance, en force the act of assembly imposing a fine of $2 upon every person found intoxicated upon the streets, and he thereupon called upon every officer of the peace to arrest every of fender and take him before the justice of the peace and have the said fine imposed, and in default of the payment of the same to have the party committed to prison. The court also stated that the fine collected under the law must be handed over to the board of school control for the benefit of popular edu cation. Since the discovery of the fact that kerosene will produce hair all manner of preparations, at big prices, will be put upon the market.— Permit us to say to any of our readers, who may wish to try the experiment, that one ounce of good kerosene, worth less thau a cent, will produce all the hair they may want. In the latter part of May last, the editor of this paper noticed a paragraph, in the Scientific American, recommending coal oil for this pur pose. Having become almost entirely bald, only a few straggling hairs gracing his top knot, he concluded to try the experiment.— He first procured pure kerosene and, not hav ing much faith, merely applied it about twice a week, just before retiring at night. After trying this for a week or two he tried crude oil, but it was heavy and murky, and again he returned to kerosene. In about three and a half or four months hair began to make its appearance, and 'now his rate bald pate is covered with a luxuriant growth of hair. This might have been accomplished much sooner if the applications had been more frequent at first. Jury trials are becoming singular objects of perplexity and irritation to both bench and bar. The idea has gone abroad, and now per lades many minds, that a jury is rot to decide on facts, but to go outside of sworn toetitnony, and by an argument in the jury room, conduct ed by parties who hare resolved to acquit or convict, secure a verdict in such an interest. We see complaints in our exchanges every day about juries ignoring facts, rejecting pos itive testimony, and taking the bit in their mouths "to do as they please." A case in Huntingdon recently, where a number of noto rious characters were arranged for car rob— beries, showed that the jury refused to be guided by clear testimony of guilt, and acquit ted the parties in defiance of the judge's charge. If the statement of this case, as we receive it, is true, it is certainly the most arrogant as sumption of power we have yet had on the part of a Pennsylvania jury. Clear. uncon tradicted testimony of guilt and yet an acquit al, is too daring an act ; and such a result is only to be ascribed to the persuasive powers of an adroit attorney. Above all things, the jury box must be kept pure ; not only pure, but its intelligence and fearlessness in the per formance of a sworn duty must always be of a character to render impeachment impossible. The jury system is the oldest of the privileges which were secured by English Magna Charts —and the form in which it was first originated has never been changed. All the other feat ures of the English court, their machinery and their adjuncts, have been changed by the chances of social and political progress, but the jury remains unaltered in every particular. When we hear of results like those referred to, the question is at once suggested, is a change demanded ? Or can the system be improved? —.Harrisburg Telegraph. SPORTING NOTES.— Several wild geese have been killed in Cam bria county this fall. John Harper, the owner of Ten Broca), has refused an offer of $60,000 fur that flyer. The officers of the Game Association should see to the removal of all fish-baskets that are in the Juniata and its tributaries. A hunter named Helsel, residing in Juniata township, Blair county, the other day killed three deer within the space of fifteen minutes. A shooting match, for turkies, came off at John Thompson's, somewhere on Piney Ridge, on Saturday last, which was largely attended by our sportsmen. For the information of the Rafttna,ns'Journal we state that the members of the Amateur hifle Association of this place shoot one hun dred yards, and at a rest. T. C. Fisher end Elwood Conrad, two of Huntingdon's crack shots, spent Friday last in the woods, but did not meet with much success, killing but three pheasants and a few quail. One day last week we observed a small boy, from the rural districts, carrying a large-sized coon about town offering it for sale at $1.25. Lie had captured it the night previous in Ju niata township. Thousands of wild pigeons hovered over the coke ovens, at [lollidaysburg a few nights ago, and although a general fusilade was opened upon them by the sportsmen of that town not a pigeon was brought down. The weekly practice of the wing shots, on Friday afternoon, resulted in the following score: Lightner 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 0-10 Fisher 001010110110000-6 Kline .1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0— 2 Dorris 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1— 7 Henderson.o 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 1— 5 Stewart 000000010100101-4 Myton... 000000011 1 0 0 0 1 1— 5 Dr.vy Crocket's motto was :—"Bc sure you are right, and then go ahead."

Mayer, in the course of a series of articles, published in the Scientific American Supple ment, "Ox THE MINUTE MEASUREMENTS OF MOD ERN SCIENCE," speaking of the application of rotating mirrors to the measurement of minute lengths, angels and times, thus introduces Mr. Joseph Saxton's Reflecting Comparator : This very ingenious application of the laws of the reflection of light was first made by Mr. Jos eph Saxton. Mr. Saxton was one of the most ingenious inventors and skillful mechanics among the rag number which our country has the honor to claim as her sons. As Mr. Saxton has done so much by his inventions and skillful work in ad vancing the art of making minute measurement, I think that a few won't concerning his personal ' history -.aay be interesting to our readers. Joseph Saxton was born in Huntingdon, Penn sylvania, in 1799. At the age of twelve he began work in his father's nail factory, and here first showed his inventive genius by making a capital improvement in the machinery in his father's shop. Subsequently be was apprenticed to the village watchmaker ; but his employer dying, he left his native villago on the Juniata, in a boat made by his own hands, and floated in it down to Harris burgh ; here he sold the boat for $lO, a supper, breakfast, and a night's lodging, and going on his journey reached Philadelphia a youth of eight een years. Just before he left home, he met with one of those accidents which often—to those who deserve th,m—:urn the energies of a mind into a hitherto unknown sphere of thought and action. One day, on driving into his rifle, with the ramrod, a ball covered with a greased patch, the ball sprang back with such velocity, from the elasticity of the en cleseul air, as to project the ramrod from the rifle. Determined to drive the ball home, he placed the end of the ramrod against a tree and giving a rush at it with the rifle; the ball went down—but he also—for the ball descended into the rifle so far and so rapidly that heat was envolved from the compressed air (like in the experiment of the fire syringe) sufficient to project young Saxton at full length on the ground. Recovering his conscious ness he began to think of the cause of this re markable explosion, and he reasoned that the air, when suddenly compressed, was like a nail when suddenly compressed by a blow of a hammer— they both being heated by the mechanical action on theta. Sub-equently he found out that the rea coo which he had discovered for himself was that generally adopted in books on natural philosophy, and this fact gave hint a reasonable confidence in his own reasoning powers and stimulated him to apply himself to the study and in7estigation of the actions of nature. In Philadelphia he worked at watch-making and engraving; and while there he, with the cele brated machinist Isaac Lukens, made the clock for Independence Hall which, to this day, sounds the hours from the belfry of that historic building. Au insatiable desire to enlarge his knowledge of things and men made him live low and save his earnings so that he might visit England. Reach ing London, he placed his money in the care of a banking-house, just in time to lose it b 3 the fail ure of the bank. He awoke one morning to find himself dependent entirely on his own exertions in the heart of that mighty city, without money and without friends. Driven to his own resources he invented and constructed several ingenious me chanical toys which had a great success at the Adelaide Gallery of practical Science, then one of the most popular resorts of London. Here he met, among many of the eminent engineers and men of science, Telford, Brunel, Farady, and Wheatstone, With the latter he was associated as assistant in making the celebrated experiments on the velocity of electricity ; indeed he not only constructed the apparatus but he actually worked it for Wheat stone in his experiments. How much of the suc cess of 'Wheatstone was due to Saxton, I leave for those who are skilled experimenters to infer. 'While in London he was the first, in 1533, to make a magneto-electric machine; which exalted to such power the magneto-electric currents, re cently discovered by Faraday, that his machine decomposed water and gave an electric light be tween charcoal points. Three years after this, in 1836, Clarke of London, merely changed the form of the instrument, and claimed it as his own in vention; but Faraday, Wheatstone and Danill stated that Saxton's machine had been exhibited in 1833, before the British Association for the Ad vancement of Science at its Cambridge meeting, and that he was the undoubted inventor. Yet, to this day, even in American text books, the ma chine is from in . /at-ions ignorance called Clarke's magneto electric machine. Saxton was always fond of field-sports, and in the course of his experiment in firearms he invent ed the metalic cartridge now so extensively used in all armies. Ile failed, however, to patent this invention, which had been the source of great emolument to the owner of the patent right. Mr. Saxton was also, I believe, the first to apply a sighting telescope to the rifle. While in London he made many inventions, among others the fountain-pen. a water gague for steam-boilers, his reflecting comparator, the loco motive differential pulley described by Hawkins at the 1833 meeting of the British Association ; also a method of determining the position of the magnetic poles in the interior of the earth. The rasults obtained by this method were subsequently found by clan mathematical ineeetigatione of the celebrated Poisson of France. He also made a machine which obtained electric currents from the earth's magnetism. and another which cut epicy clobial teeth for gearing. While in London he was offered the responsible position of director of the printing machinery of the Bask of England. His ardent desire to return home prevented him from accepting this position. On the eve of his departure for his native land an entertainment was given him by several of the moot eminent savana and engineers of London. At the dinner a work on mechanics was presented to him by John Isaac Hawkins, on the fly leaf of which is the following inscription : "Presented April 26, 1837, by the editor, to Joseph Saxton, Esq., of Philadelphia, at a fare well dinner given to him in London, previous to his departure for America, by eighteen of his friends, as a token of the high estimation in which they hold him as a mechanician of the first rank, and a man of scicence generally; in which esti mation his fellow citizen the editor stands second to no one." About the same time there appeared the following in one of the Enillish journals of science : _ "Mr. Saxton, of Philadelphia, now in London, who is justly celebrated for his acute feeling in regard to the nature and value of accuracy in me chanism, and who is reputed not to be excelled by any man in Diro eor America for exquisite nicety of workmanship, has made an instrument for cut ting the teeth of wheels truly epicycloidal. Such an instrument ought to be in the hands of every engineer." here we find Saxton about to return to his home, his character deceloped into nobility and self— reliance. and his mind enriched by the knowledge gathered in London during his association with the first men of science and engineers of that day ; and also honored by them as a worthy fellow worker. Thus we see Saxton "hoisted by his own petard" —the explosion of his rifle fire-syringe landing him on high ground in London. Ile reached Philadelphia in 1837 and was made carator and constructor of the standard weighing apparatus of the United States Mint. here he made several notable inventions; we will only mention the perfection of Gobreeht's medal-ruling machine, and a stove for burning anthracite coal, provided with an automatic valve to regulate the draft. The valve was worked by the expansion of two metals whose action caused the . stove to keep at an equal temperature. In 1337 Mr. Saxton was awarded the Scott leg— acy medal by the Franklen Institute for the in vention of the Reflecting Comparator, which in strument will be fully described in this article. In 1543, Mr. Alex D. Bache succeeded Mr. Hass ler as superintendent of the U. S. Coast Survey and he at once placed M-. Saxton in charge of the cou.stru-tion of the standard balances, weights, and measures to be presented to each of the States fer ensuring uniformity of measures in all parts of the country. In IVashington Mr. Saxton passed the remainder of his days, employing his talents in giving increased accuracy and improved con struction to the many refined instruments which have aided in gaining for the U. S Coast Survey the high reputation vi hich it has among all nations. Mr. '•axton had a manly and benerelent charac ter. He WAS singularly modest and only to those who, like the writer, knew him intimately did he give forth those suggestive thoughts which show ed his intellectual I ewers. Mr. Saxton died, deep ly lamented by his many friends, in Washington, on the 26th September, 1873, alter a lingering ill nest' from paralysis. Professor Henry in his memoir of Saxton, before the National Academy of Science (and from which our biographical facts have been chiefly obtained) says of Saxton :—"He neither pestered the world with premature projects destined to failure because tha necessary contemperaneous conditions were not present; nor retarded the alvanee of improve ment by advocating old errors under new forms. On the contrary, his innovations were founded on well-established principles, and consequently were positive additions to human power and effi ciency." SUICIDE—A WOMAN CUTS HER. THROAT I—The little town of Orbisonia was thrown into feverish excitement, on Thursday forenoon of last week, by one of its citizens committing suicide by cutting her throat with a pen knife. The victim was Mrs. Henry Mil ler, a lady held in high esteem by all who knew her. She was found lying on the floor of her bed room, with her face to the wall, in a pool of blood, with the instrument of death, a small pen knife, near her. No reason can be assigned for the commission of the rash act, but it Is thought by many that she was suffer ing from temporary insanity. A jury of in quest was summoned, but no evidence was ob tamed calculated to explain the cause of her rash deed. Mrs. Miller leaves a husband and three small children to mourn her terrible death. Borace Greely's advice was :—"Young man, go west." Our advice is to the men, young and old, go to MONTGOMERY'S Clothing Store, where yon will find a splendid assort— ment of ready made Clothing for Men, Boys and Youths, bought as low as any merchant in the county can buy, and will be sold at correspondingly low figures. Don't forget the place, corner of sth and Washington streets. Call and see us. Farmers, before you buy your Dress Goods and Domestics, you will consult your own interests by seeing our stock and getting our prices. T. J. LEWIS. COURT PROCEEDINOs.—Contrary to the general rule of criminal week, the attendance on Monday was small, but each successive day seemed to materially increase the number of persons who resorted to the court room. This may be accounted for perhaps by the fact that only petty cases were tried on Monday while those of more general interest w7re reserved for a later day. Robert Rodgers, a boy of about fifteen years of age, was indicted for open lewdness, that is, for bathing in a public place, and exposing himself to passing persons. His defense was that the place where lie bathed was not public (it being in fact a covered aqueduct at Mt. Union) and that lie concealed himself at the approach of the ladies who testified against him. The jury acquitted the boy and divided the costs between him and the prosecutrix, Mrs. Tillie Hanawalt. Theodore Macemore, indicted for fornica tion and bastardy, pleaded guilty and was sentenced in the usual form, viz: $5.00 fine, $3O for the expenses of the prosecutrix, Letty B. Colt, and $l.OO per week for seven years with secured bond in the sum of $5OO. Shadrach Wilson, in the same fix, went through the same mill. He was prosecuted by Sarah C. Bumbarger. Jeremiah Repp, charged with the same of fense by Minerva Martin, preferred n. trial and the jury found him gui.ty. He received the usual sentence. Jones B. Moore similarly charged by Mary E. Chilcothe, also wanted a trial and his case afforded a whole evening's entertainment to those who delight in attending the criminal court. The jury had to decide between the oath of Moore, who swore he didn't, and the oath of Mary who swore he did, and they con• chided that it was a deep puzzle to solve.— Moore got off with the payment of half the costs. A number of indictments were found last August against Alexander Norris, for crooked dealing in liquors. These cases came up for trial on Monday evening, and Norris proposed, through his counsel, to plead guilty on the charge of selling liquor without license, if the District Attorney would enter nolle prosequis in the other cases against him, it being under stood that he, Norris would pay the costs in all, and that the court would impose the heaviest sentence allowed by law for this of fense. The District Attorney refused to ac cept the proposition, even after an intimation from the court that a conviction in every case would only result in the imposition probably of $4O additional fine:and 40 or 60 days im prisonment. Pending the consideration of this arrangement court adjourned until 9 A. M. and on Tuesday morning the proposition of the defendant was accepted. The case of S. E. Fleming, et al. vs. Ephra im Cornman, guardian, was next tried. It had been tried before, at the January Term, but the jury failed to agree. The present trial ran through nearly two days and resulted in a verdict for the plaintiffs. The question at is— sue was whether a judgment entered in this county in favor of Ephraim Cornman, against Joseph S. Cornman, formerly proprietor of the Monitor, was fraudulently entered for the purpose of hindering or defeating subsequent creditors of Jos. S. Cornman, or whether it had been paid by Joseph, and afterwards kept open for fraudulent purposes. On the trial Ephraim, who is Joseph's father, alleged that large sums of money were placed in his bands as guardian of the minor children of Dr. Dan iel Cornman, of Pittsburg, and that be actual ly loaned $lOOO of it to his son. When asked whether he had given a bond as guardian he said he bad not, and in answer to questions as to what he had done with a balance of about $2OOO which had been placed in Lis hands in trust for his wards he could not ac count for a cent of it—it was gone, and he himself was not worth a dollar I The evidence in the case developed a state of facts concern ing the manipulation of Joseph's financial of fairs as to bring a blush to the cheek of every honest man who listened to it. On Wednesday afternoon the criminal list was again taken up. An indictment charging John O'Brien, John Bolin, John Hickey, Pat rick Dougherty and William Byrne with the larcency of about $3OO worth of knives, re volvers, &c., from the store of Samuel McCul loch, in this town, on the night of October 26, was first tried, and resulted in an acquittal of all the defendants, although some of the stolen property was found in the possession of sev eral of them and they were identified as hav ing been seen here on the day before the rob bery, and in Harrisburg in an alleged resort of tramps and robbers on the next evening, where they were arrested. Their acquital was doubticee due to the very eloquent argument made in their behalf by Mr. Lvtle. On Thursday the case of the Commonwealth vs. H. M. Butler and Geo. M. Cresswell, indict ed for maintaining a fish-basket at an outlet to their mili-race, was tried, but they were acquitted because they had not been tried first before a Justice of the Peace as required by the fish and game laws. Pamelia J. Randolph was then tried for per jury. Au account of this case was given in the JOURNAL at the last term of Court. The trial resulted in a verdict of guilty. This end ed the criminal list. Abraham Yingling vs. David Stumbaugh. Feigned issue to test the validity of a judg ment entered by Yingling against Stumbaugh for $148.50. The evidences of fraud were ab solutely overwhelming, and the jury rendered a verdict for the defendant. Thomas W. Myton, late Treasurer of Hun tingdon county, fur use of H. S. Wharton's trustees, vs. R. Bruce Petriken. This was an action brought to recover the half of a surplus bond given by Major Petriken on the purchase at tax sate, of a tract of land belonging to H. S. Wharton and Frank Hefright jointly. Maj. Petriken made a deed for half of the land to Hefright, upon the latter's signing a release. The main question in this case was whether the release by one of the joint owners is a se lease as to both, and it being a purely legal question the opinion of the Court upon it was reserved. J. Reed .Meertim vs. Janey - & Andrew..— This was a suit to determine the title to a store bought at sheriff's sale by Joseph Duff and afterwards sold to Meerut°, which sale Janey & Andrews alleged to be fraudulent as against tbem, they being subsequent creditors of J. M. Johnston, from whom the store was sold in the first instance. The purchase by Duff and Meerum was shown to be entirely regular and honest and the def9ndants aband oned the case on its trial. DEATH OF WM. C. WAGONER.—The many friends of Will Wagoner, in this place, will be astonished and pained to hear of his unexpected death, which occurred in Phillips burg ou Monday night, of the 12th inst. The Phillipsburg Journal of the 17th inst., in no ticing the sad event, says : He had been absent for a few weeks but return ed home before election day, complaining of not being well, but was not confined to his room and bed until last Friday. On Sunday his physician was called in to see him, but : othing serious was apprehended, aril he hoped to be about in a few days. However on Monday evening one of his friends called at his room, and found him suffering with pain on his chest, more than usual, and re quested to be raised up, and in the act of moving from the bedside, he • fell heavily on his friend, both sinking to the floor together. Assistance being summoned, he was removed to his bed again, when lie expired without a wort!. Thus appar ently without a warning has another spirit been summoned to its eternal home. Mr. Wagoner was born in Covington, Ohio, April 15, 1833, and after the death of his father, found a home at the age of nine years with his uncle, L. G. Kessler, Esq., then residing at Mill Creek, Huntingdon county, in this State. lie manifested a more than usual degree of brightness and ability as a young man. and became popular in almost every position. lie filled the office of Prothonatary for two terms in his adopted home, Huntingdon county. lie also volunteered his service in behalf of the Union dur• ing the late war, and enlisted in the 125th regi ment of Pennsylvania volunteers. He was pro moted to the Lieutenancy of hiscompany, and fell at the battle of Antietam severely wounded in the thigh, placing him in the hospital from which he was discharged unfit for duty. He was entitled to a pension for some years. Phillipsburg became his home in 1867 and for some years be was senior member of the firm of Wagoner & Bro., doing a pretty extensive merchandising business. During the past four years he had been dealing pretty ex ttnsively in the shave's shingle trade in connec tion with some other breaches of business. He was well and favorably known in this community as a courteous and genial friend to all, and unfor ' tunately his own greatest enemy. lie was a vic tim, at times only however, to the strong power of ardent spirits, of which no one seemed more fully to realize the terrible misfortuue than himself Had it not been for this weakness he might have ranked with the first citizens of the place, finan cialy and otherwise. . . . The remains of the deceased were taken in charge by the members of the Artisans' order of Mutual protection, of which he was an active and efficient member and Recorder at the time of his death. His fellow comrades of the war, Company E. of sth Regt. N. Q. of Pennsylvania under com mand of Capt. Simler, and a large number of friends followed his remains to the grave on Wed nesday morning.

Journal wants the Council of that place to take immediate action and donate a site for the plate glass works contemplated by M. Gobert, whose letter was read before our city council at the meeting held on the Bth instant. The Journal says that five times the amount required for the site has already been raised for the purpose of erecting glass works at Iluntingdon, but intimates that as the sum is not sufficient to erect the works, the best thing to be done is to donate a site to M. Gobert's company, and thus secure the intro duction of a vast industry at little cost to the citizens. The editor of the Journal states that be has received a letter from M. Gobert, requesting him to bring the fact to the notice of the citi zens of a number of towns, Cumberland amongst them, that the works, if erected, will be located in the town offering the greatest advantages in the shape of donation of land, exemption from taxation, grant of privileges, ac. With the construction of the proposed new railroad Cumberland's freight facilities will be much better than those of any of the other towns mentioned in the letter, and the glass company would certainly be secure from ex tortionate freights ; besides we bare cheap fuel, plenty of timber and the material for glass making. These facts will no doubt have con sideruble weight with the proposed company, and with a reasonable effort on the part of our citizens Cumberland has a fair chance to get the works.—Cumberland (Md.) Civilian.

Did any enfeebled human being ever become strong under the operation of powerful cath artics or salivants ? It is sometimes necessary to regulate the bowels, but that cannot be done by active purgation, which exhausts the vital forces and serves no good purpose what - ever. The only true way to promote health and vigor, which are essential to regularity of the organic functions, is to invigorate, dici pline and purify the system at the same time. The extraordinary efficacy of Hostetter's stomach Bitters in cases of debility or irregu larity of the organs of digestion, assimilation, secretion and discharge, is universally admit ted. Appetite, good digestion, a regular habit of body, active circulation of the blood, and purity of all the animal fluids are induced by this superb tonic and corrective. It has no equals, moreover, as a preventitive of chills and fever, and other types of malarial disease. To emigrants and travelers it is particularly serviceable as a medicinal safeguard. .

OF INTEREST TO LETTER WRITERS.— Postmaster-General Key has addressed the following circular to postmasters throughout the United States : "Postmasters are required to keep a com plaint book, in which all letters reported to them as lost are to be entered, and, after ma king examination in their offices, they- are required to report the loss with all particulars, without delay. The public are also invited to report promptly all losses or irregularities in the correspondence to the Chief Special Agent, Postoffice Department, Washington D. U., and investigation will follow. If all losses should be promptly reported it will be the means of correcting the irregularities, and the interest of the public, as well as the efficiency of the postal-service will be enhanced in a most im portant degree. The omission of the county in the address of letters is one of the great causes of delay anti missending." EXTRA PRECAUTION.—The Pennsyl vania Railroad Company are determined to put a stop to the excess of tramps along that thoroughfare, and by the sanction of Gov. Hartranft a number of special constables have been appointed, who are authorized to arrest all such characters who may be travelling on the line of the road. It seems that the crop of nomads this fall is of the most vicious de scription, and it may yet be necessary to or ganize vigilance committees to keep them in check. Forcible measures must soon be taken against a class who are nearly all idle vaga bonds. Of course there are honorable excep tions, but as a general thing the tramp is an outcast whose hand i 3 against every one, and he will soon discover that every one's hand is against him.—Altoona Globe.
