The tax collector wants his money. Business is brightening up very much. Black birds have put in an appearance. The buds have been swelling very rapidly. "To Let" can be seen in all quarters of the tows. The prettiest girl is Huntingdon eschews pin-backs. The avenues were crowded with pedestrians on Sunday last. Senator Fisher spent Saturday and part of Sunday at his borne. Lloydsville, on the Bell's Gap Railroad, has several cases of small-pox. Several new buildings are in the course of erection in West Huntingdon. A shooting gallery is one of the luxuries that ought to pay au income tax. The Normal School site is one of the most elevated and beautiful about the town. Hiram Rhodes, esq., butcher, has the fattest and most consequential "purp" in town. A first-class shoe store will be opened op posite the JOURNAL building on or about the first pros. The City Council Band of Altoona has ordered new instruments from a Philadelphia manufacturer. J. Irvine Brotherline, esq., of Hollidaysburg, has been admitted to practice in the Ignited States Courts. Can't the Car Works be converted into some kind of Novelty Works ? It strikes us this might be done. F. A. Douey, esq., the gentlemanly agent of the Harrisburg Patriot, dropped in to see us one day last week. S. S. Smith & Son will open a music store in the room now occupied by Samuel March as a clothing store. The females will wear hats ornamented with butterflies ; the males, as usual, will wear "bricks' in their'n. The Huntingdon distillery shut down on Wednesday last on account of the large supply of the ardent on hand. A successful religious revival has been in progress, for some time past, in the Presby terian church at Mapleton. There ought to be some manufacturing es tablishment started, in Huntingdon, that would give employment to women. The heavy rains of Monday and Tuesday had the effect of swelling the volume of water in the Juniata and its tributaries. An unknown tramp was killed by the Pacific Express east, on Tuesday morning last, be tween Mill Creek and Mapleton. The Mt. Union Timea : It is pretty generally conceded that Matilda Furnace will resume operation on or about the first of April. One man working and fifteen looking ou was the sight that presented itself, in front of the JOURNAL building, on Monday morning last. Rev. Hunter, of our town, Chaplain of the Fit'th Reg., officiated at the funeral of Col. P. B. Wilson, in Bellefonte, on Tuesday of last week. In at animated contest for Superintendent of the Lutheran Sunday School,on last Sunday, our friend, I. R. Hatfield, esq., carried off the honors. . Thefirstfrogs of the season "squeaked" their first "squeak" on Saturday night last. They may have an opportunity to look through glass yet. Candidates for the County Superintendency have got down to hard work, and they will keep at it until the meeting of the Directors' Convention. There are a great many people dying" abobt town now. Some people commence dying a long time before they '•sbuffle off this mortal coil." Remember that the JOURNAL Job Room turns out the handsomest, most attractive and cheapest Sale Bills in the county. Send us your order. tf. The miners of the Cumberland coal region being on a strike makes it fearfully dull on the great southern. It will keep the B. & B. busy to earn its salt. It is rumored that Harry Slep, esq., of the Altoona Mirror, has in contemplation the starting of a weekly German paper in that city, in the near future. Dr. Goldberg's Catarrh Remedy, advertised in another column of this paper, is said to be the best in use. It is certainly a very sensible and practical application. The Democratic County Committee will meet in this place today, (Friday), for the purpose of electing delegates to the next Dem ocratic State Convention. Seven persons in Altoona, the other day, were poisoned by eating horse radish in which a brass spoon was used. They were seriously ill but all have recovered. Workmen have been engaged, for several days past, in putting props under the canal aqueduct spanning Stone Creek, and other wise repairing that structure. Mr. Geo. Bruner, a tonsorial knight well known to many of our citizens, will open a barber shop on the corner of Fourth and Allegheny streets in a few days. Professor Sheeder has one of the prettiest and most thrifty lot of house plants in the town. His swinging arrangement for plants is a capital affair. Patent applied for. The tramp is to be found at the rear of the house, knocking at the back door, and meekly asking for "wittles" or old clothes. While the small-pox lasted there was none of him. Edward F. Kerr, esq., of the Bedford Gazette - , will take the position of Corporation Clerk under Auditor General Wm. P. Schell. Good for Edward. May he live long and prosper. If there is any truth in the old saying "that the first thunder wakes the snakes," we sup pose Tuesday morning last found the reptiles in this bailiwick wide-awake and quite lively The water was drawn off the canal on Monday last, and the boys had rare sport, in wading through the mud in search of fish.— Several strings of small cat fish were caught. Rev. A. N. Hollifield, discoursed on hell on last Sunday evening. The ministers appear to be giving their members more hell than usual since that sensational sermon of Beech er's. Sale bills printed at this office, at very reasonable figures, and the sale inserted in the JOURNAL for a trifling advance. Every one ought to advertise their sales in the news papers. tf. C. W. Easley, esq., local editor of the Johns town Trilune, we are sorry to learn from that paper, is suffering from a severe cold and hemorrhages of the lungs. May he speedily recover. Our friend, John M. Stonebraker, esq., formerly of this county, does up the locals for the Altoona daily Globe, and with his ex perience "Stoney . ' will make that department interesting. Competition amongst the grocers in this place has reduced the price of first class coffee to 23 cents per pound. While this will be death to the dealers it will be of benefit to buyers. Go in, gentlemen. Col. Wm. Dorris and family intend visiting the Paris Exposition this summer. We un derstand they will sail about the middle of May, and their many friends will wish them a safe and pleasant voyage. The smallest men in the world are those who represent small fortunes. Such generally think that their money is omnipotent. Bah It would take six such to make a decent shadow of a first-class liberal man. We bays just received an additional supply of "cuts" suitable for embellishing sale bills, and are better prepared than ever to do this kind of printing. Orders from a distance will receive prompt attention. tf. Our friend, Dr. J. G. Camp, is about to pull up stakes and leave Huntingdon for some cew field. The Doctor is a good dentist, and we wish him success in whatever quarter of the globe he may pitch his tent. The Western fever is simply frightful. After while the eastern fever will set in and then will come "the tug of war." Funds exhausted, constitution racked and hopes deferred will blast the most buoyant spirits. A heavy rain storm visited this bailiwick, on Tuesday night last, and for five or six hours it lookee as if the inhabitants would have to take to boats ; some of the streets presented the appearance of miniature lakes. Rev. J. F. Bell, a member of the Central Pennsylvania Conference, stationed at Wood land, Clearfield county, died at the residence of his father, T. G. Bell, near Lewistown, on Tuesday of last week week, of typhoid fever. The express charge on the box containing the personal effects of W. C. Manson, who was recently killed at the depot, in Altoona, which was shipped from that city to Gilead, Ohio, was $205. Such a charge is simply outrageous. A town of from 4,000 to 5,000 inhabitants, with no water to depend upon in case of a fire but the Juniata river, is in a bad way, es pecially when the river can not be utilized except when the fire is under 1000 feet away. Build water works We have the finest "horse cuts" in the State, and are prepared to get up horse bills in a style superior to any other office in this sec tion. Owners of horses will please remember this fact when they are ready to have their posters printed. tf. The manner in which the people of Hun tingdon have responded to the call for funds to secure the location of the Normal School shows that the spirit of enterprise is not dead by any means. We will bet our bottom dollar on the old thing yet. Dr. R. A. Miller, Dr. A. B. Brumbaugh, W. H. Woods, James Port and B. Frank Isenberg deserve great credit for the 'manner in which they worked up the $3,400 r equired to secure the site of the Normal School. The project was entrusted to the proper hands. Huntingdon has been remarkable for over doing everything. If one man manifested enough enterprise to invest in a business there have alwaYs been two or three others to go into the same business and thereby ruin it.— Let there be no more fooling of this kind. For several days past large numbers of raftsmen have passed west on the P. R. R., en route for their homes, after having taken their lumber to market during the late freshets. The prices for all kinds of lumber are said to be lower then for a number of years past. A first-class thunder storm—the first of the seasou—visited this place about 12 o'clock on Monday night, and for over in hour the rain came down in torrents. During the continuance of the storm large quantities of bait also felt, rendering the atmosphere perceptibly cooler. The burning of a railroad bridge at New Brunswick, N. J., on Saturdry morning last, resulted in a requisition for all the carpenters, in the employ of the P. R. R., under Mr. Ed. Wimer, of this place, to repair to the scene of the disaster and help repair the damages.— They left on Saturday evening. Our whilom neighbor across-the-way, A. J. Ilertzler, esq., has associated himself with Wm. F. Kirk & Co's Grocery house, 109 Arch street, Philadeipbia. He is a very clever gen tleman. This house is a first-class one aril our dealers can rely upon our friend. He will visit Huntingdon about once a month. Try his goods. "Railroading has been reduced to so fine a point," said a traveler in our hearing the other day, "that it takes three or four Pullman cars for six or eight passengers, while all the re mainder, fifty or a hundred, must be crowded into a single car." He may have been a grumbler, but there seems to be considerable truth in his utterances. Rev. D. H. Geissinger, of Lancaster, will lecture in the Court House, on this (Friday) evening, for the benefit of the Ladies' Aid Society of the Baptist church. Subject—" Del usions," Miss Hoar, of Lancaster, will enter tain the audience with vocal accompanied by instrumental music. The public are cordially invited. Admission, 25 cents. After a rest of a week Fifth street is again being dug up. This time it is done by Geo. A. Port, esq., who is having a twelve-inch pipe laid from his meat shop cellar to connect with the sewer. We suppose this is the last time this thoroughfare will be'disturbed until it is done for the purpose of putting down water mains, which we hope will be in the near future. There is soniething wrong in our Mail ar rangements. Since the first of January they have - been as irregular and uncertain as the weather. if passengers from Pittsburgh and Philadelphia on mail trains can make counec tion at Huntingdon and Bedford why cannot mails make the same connection ? Can the Huntingdon P. M. throw any light on the sub ject.—Bedford Inquirer. Isn't it about time that the Grand Jury overhaul the miserable old rat-trap yclept jail and direct the County Commissioners to erect a new one ? We are talking about a new Penitentiary ; it would look well beside such a wretched looking apology for a prison as we have. Order a new one and let the old one be converted into a cow-stable. It is about all that it is fit for. "Ten Nights in a Bar Room," will be played by the Mountaineer Troupe, of this place, in the Penn Street Opera House, in the near future. The young ladies and gentlemen com posing the company are hard ai work preparing themselves fur their debut. They are under the tuition of a gentleman who has had con siderable experience in theatricals and who is competent for the task he has assumed. A wise man will court the good graces of the antagonist he cannot rid himself, of whilst the foolish man will antagonize his enemy until he loses every opportunity. In other words, rather than concede anything to his enemy he would sacrifice all his own aspirations ; rather than reign with his opponent in Leaven he would sooner both were consigned to ever lasting punishment. Respectfully referred to some small politicians we know. ' Rev. Bonifield, on Sunday night last, gave his congregation Hell, from a bible stand point, and in doing so discoursed from Psalm 9:l7—"The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God." Be quoted numerous passages of Scripture ti prove the existence of a bell, and his able dis course was listened to with breathless atten tion by the very large congregation assembled to hear his views on this mu2b mooted ques tion. Advertisers will bear in mind that the cir culation of the JOURNAL exceeds that of any other paper in the county by several hundred, and that its patrons are generally of the better class, comprising merchants, business men, mechanics, farmers, and those whose patronage is desirable to every person engaged in any and every branch of trade. If you want to get the worth of your money avail yourselves of the superior facilities offered by the use of its columns. tf. When we remember that the News has been riding its hobby of low taxes, for several weeks past, we are both surprised and astonished to bear it urging the erection of a new jail, court house, and public school building. We are glad that our contemporary is getting out of the rut of old fogyism, and that it is in favor of improvement even at the risk of increasing taxation. We second the motion of the News and say that we should have all of these im provements. Most of our literary and professional people like to lay abed in the morning until breakfast, then arise, eat a few bites, simply to break the fast until noon, and, with a clear head, go to work ; the exceptions to this rule, and they are few, arise early, walk a league or two, come back with au appetite equal to that of a ravenous wolf, and, after satisfying it, go to work with a muddled brain and a weighty stomach. A clear head, in business, is worth a dozen full stomachs. A runaway horse, attached to a small wagon' on Monday evening, made pretty good time up Penn street. In turning the corner at Fifth street the wagon ran against the carriage of Rev. 11. B. Brumbaugh, breaking one of the shafts and frightening the inmates. The run away animal was captured in front of the post office. The horse belonged to Mr. David Decker, of West Huntingdon, and started from the P. R. R. freight depot, where it was left standing by his careless driver. Gen. James A. Beaver has issued an order for the line officers of the Fifth Regiment N. G. of Pennsylvania, to meet at the Leister House, in this place, on the 22d inst., at 8 o'clock, P. M., for the purpose of electing a Colonel to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Col. P. B. Wilson. It is also ordered that any vacancies among the field officers, occasioned by such election, will be filled at the same time and place. Lieut. Col. D. S. Keller has been detailed to hold the election. Two prisoners named Benj. Sponebarger and John Campbell, made their escape from jail, in this place, on Saturday evening last, by walking out of a gate leading to an alley out side the walls, which had been left unlocked by some one who had been hauling wood to the prison during the day. Sponebarger was awaiting trial for carrying concealed weapons, and Campbell for breaking the window in the lock-up whilst he was incarcerated in that in stitution for drunkenness. We believe the young men took Greely's advice and went west. since the above was put in type we learn that the prisoners spent Sunday night in Gaysport, at which place Campbell was born. They continued their journey towards the setting sun early on Monday morning. The enlarged News made its appearance on Monday last, and in answer to the question, "bow do you like it ?" we think that it does not present as neat an appearance as it did before the enlargement ; its shape is not so well proportioned ; the press work, owing, we suppose, to the very full form, is not so well executed, whale its "borrowed bowels" is any thingbutan improvement, from a typographical stand-point, and as for additional space for home news we do not see that our neighbors have gained much; but as the sheet is now large enough to "wrap up things" we suppose its patrons are content. However, we wish the proprietors success, and hope they may be come millionaires. A young man named John Miller, residing in %Vest Huntingdon, was seriously injured, on Saturday night last by jumping off the Phila delphia Express opposite Fifth street. It seems that young Miller, in company with several other young men, had "bounced" one of the western bound trains, on the evening in ques tion, and gone to Tyrone, where they got off and waited for the arrival of the Phila. Ex press, when they boarded that train, and Mil ler wishing to leave the train before it reached the depot, to escape detection, jumped off at the point indicated, lighting upon his head. When his companions found him he was un conscious. They carried him to his home, where he soon recovered consciousness, bat we understand that his face is terribly marked by scratches and his body full of bruises. He was very fortunate that he escaped with his life. This is another lesson to those persons who are in the habit of jumping on and off passing trains. SPORTING NOTES.— Altoona turfnien indulge in horse racing. Wm. Pringle, jr., of Portage, Cambria coun ty, killed twenty-four full-grown foxes last winter. We understand that Fish Warden West brook "gobbled" some of the dip net fisher men on Wednesday. A Mr. McCartney, residing in White town ship, Cambria county, caught a large wild cat in his bear pen, the other night. Wild cats appear to be quite numerous in Cromwell township, Mr. Rogers, of that baili wick, having slaughtered two of them within a quarter of a mile of his residence. The wing-shots of Altoona have made rapid improvement since they commenced practicing, a few weeks ago. Why can't Hunt,ogdon and Altoona come together and have, a friendly contest ? A shooting match, between three or feu,- Blair county marksmen,, and a like number from Cambria, for a purse of $lOO and the championship, is .to come off at Ebensburg, on Saturday, the 16th inst. A sbooting•galiery was opened in the third story of the post office building last week, which is a great resort for the juvenile pop ulation, and all of them who can raise a nickel try their hands at the mark. The members of the Hound and Hare Club are providing themselves with some of the best dogs to be had in the country, and as some of them are gentlemen of ample means they will not let the prices asked deter them from pur chasing any animal that suits their fancy. The club will be prepared to make a successful raid upon the "cotton tails" when the season arrives. Our friend, ex-Sheriff Ilenderson, has be come a member of the Hare and Hound club, of this place, and on Thursday last purchased a full-blooded Beigle hound, for which he paid the handsome price of $25. She is said to be a beauty, of the purest blood, and fully worth the price paid for her. The Sheriff has ordered an improved breech-loading shot gun, and by the time the hunting season opens he will be fully equipped. • Durir.g the hunting season of last fall our friend, Thos. C. Fisher, eaq., gathered in the following game : 35 pheasants, 20 woodcock, 35 partridges, 2 mallard ducks, I common duck, 2 turkeys, 30 squirrels and 7 rabbits.— In killing this game he had but one full day's hunting, his business not permitting him to spend more than four or five hours in the woods at a time. Of the thirty five pheasants killed thirty one of them were brought down while on the wing. While he is one of the best wing-shots in this neck 'o woods he keeps the best gnus and dogs that can be purchased. A party of gentlemen, on Monday afternoon, were testing their breech loading shot guns, both as regards their concentration of the charge of shot and their power of penetration. All of their guns did good execution, but we believe T. C. Fisher's carried off the palm in the contest. A friend of ours urged us to fire &couple of loads from his gun, and when we heard the report we were in a quaadry to tell whether the charge had left the barrel at the muzzle or the breech. As a "kicker" she was a success, and we do not feel like in iulging in shot-gun shooting for a day or two at least. The wing-shots met for practice, on Satur day afternoon, and to try a new trap recently purchased. The trap heretofore used threw the ball in a straight line, so that the marks men knew exactly the direction it would take, but the new trap is so arranged that the trap. per can spring the ball in a straight line or to the right or left, and a screen before it prevents the gunner from forming any idea of its direc tion until it is in mid air, so that be is as much at sea as if be were waiting for a bird to rise. It is an improvement on the old trap and causes the gunner to be on the alert in order to get in his work. The following is the score: F.

The solicitor of advertisements is not in any sense a different man from him who waits upon you for an order for goods, and yet he's generally con sidered a bore if lie asks you for your adver tisement. You look at him as though you were about to confer an immense favor if you yielded to his request. You don't advertise as though you were investing in something that would prove advantageous to yourself. You seem to think that when you pay for advertising you are donating to the newspaper man. You do other things to bring your name and business before the public—you ornament your place of business to attract customers—you hang out an expensive sign, and hire men to ask people to buy your goods. But when you are invited to make your wishes known through the best and cheapest medium in the world, you begin to wonder bow you can get rid of this newspaper man without absolutely kicking him out of your establish ment. Here you make a great mistake. Be cause you don't hear from an advertisement as soon as it is inserted, is no proof that the advertisement is doing no good. One very seldom hears any good of himself. To prove of how much effect notices of one's business are, note how sensitive most men are in regard to what is said of them in a newspaper, especially if the notice is not altogether com plimentary; note, too, how jealous are many about what is said favorably to another in the same line of business. Thus do men tacitly admit the power of good and evil notices in the public prints, and yet these same men will cry out, "Well, I don't see as it does me any good to advertise." The theory that ad vertising is simply conferring a favor upon the editor of the newspaper is the silliest of notions. One might as well say that lie buys his groceries at Smith's just to keep him from starving, or gets shaved at Thompson's because he wants to encourage the tonsorial art. It's all bosh. You trade where you can get the best return for your money, and you advertise for your own good and not from any desire to sustain your newspaper.— Er.

[tnchB-2t A VICTIM OF RUM —The Chambers burg Repository,in noticing the death of Hance Campbell, at the Alms-House, near Shirleys burg, a week or two ago, says : Hance Campbell was a native of Ireland, who, some forty years ago, emigrated to this country, and for some time resided in the vicinity of Concord, this county, where be had many highly respectable relatives. The first work be ever did in this country, was on the stone bridge at Concord. He had plenty of Irish gab, and like most raw Irishmen, he was terribly afraid of snakes and toads, and be thus afforded the boys of the village no little amusement. The writer remembers to have thrown a dead water snake into his open shirt bosom one day when he was at work on that bridge, the result of which afforded enough of fun to the boys for a day. He was then an industrious and sober young man, "as hard as a pine knot," and too mean to be more than honest. He thus acquired some property, but lie became, as we learn from the above, a subject of the demon Intemperance, and clos ed his life, like so many thousands of deluded men, in poverty and disgrace. NEW SHOE STORE —On Or about the Ist of April J. H. McCullough, esq., of Altoo na, will open a first class Shoe Store, in this place, in the room lately occupied by Crum's shoe store, nearly opposite the JOURNAL build ing, on Fifth street, where he will keep a full line of all kinds of boots and shoes, from the finest kid to the coarsest brogan, so that all classes can be suited at his establishment. Mr. McCullough has been in the shoe trade for a number of years, and his large experi ence will enable him to select stock suitable for this section. His prices will be down to "rock bottom."

EDITOR.—In the list of expenditures of Huntingdon county I find this item, "Premi ums for killing foxes, wild cats, skunks, hawks and owls, $4,535.15." If this item is correct the tax-payers would do well to consider the propriety of abolishing the whole scalp busi ness. lam not informed as to the price of a scalp, but I may suppose the average price Is 50 cents ; and upon this supposition there were 90701 "varmits" sent to their "long home" during the year. Does any one believe so many met an untimely death at the bands of their relentless pursuers 7 Perhaps it is true. But if the people will hear, I will tell them how to save $4,435.15: just pay for all the mischief done in the county by these little murderers. lam certain it does not amount to $lOO iu a year. Why the Local News has not taken bold of this expensive, but use less practice, is a question in my mind. It may be that its success depends on the scalp tcade, and if so, it would be impolitic to make niuch noise about it. The News, bower, might, by a proper course, largely increase its income. It might hammer away at the present law un til the people would have it abolished, and in its stead have the office of county scalper in • troduced. The News being eminently quali fied, and having all the necessary tools and machinery to "do up scalping" with neatness and despatch, without doubt, it would be ap pointed to fill the office at a salary of $2OOO a year, thereby saving to the county $2,535.15. This, my fellow tax payers, is worth looking at. What say you towards having this change made in the law ? Now is a good time to pre sent such a bill, when economy is rampant in our legislature. RUX.

Beginning their careers with a tre mendous flourish of trumpets, blazoned for a time in the public prints and on flaming posters, soon, but not too soon, were they relegated to the limbo of things lost on earth. But Ilostetter's Stomach Bitters is a living and thriving remedy. It goes on, curing and to cure. Neither underhand nor open competition affect it. On the contrary, con trast its popularity. It has been repeatedly imi tated, but without success. Counterfeits of it have been surreptitiously introduced, but have fallen flat. Everywhere it entrenches itself in the confidence of the people ; and well it may, for it is a thoroughly reliable invigorant of the feeble, banishes dyspepsia and constipation, braces the nerves, cures rheumatic ailments and kidney com plaints and eradicates and prevents interrmittent and remittent fevers.

If any firm doing busi ness on this continent can afford to "move on" with a splendid reputation through these hard times, this would seem to be the one. It is advertise,d by an appreciative newspaper fraternity very largely without charge; yet• in view of all these facts, the list sent us for use next month, for which they pay a fair price, in money, by the Inch, is devoted largely to their own business. The order takes us somewhat by surprise, and it would reassure us if we were disposed to doubt the wisdom of pushing business through the hardest time.. We add for the benefit of the Thomases who may read that Messrs. Geo. P. Rowell & Co. come nearer knowing all about the advertising busi: ness than any other firm, having handled millions and millions of dollars thus appropriated. Another feature worth noting is their liberality with "Uncle Sam."
