Our old friend, Isaac Fisher, is one of the
most accommodating men in town, and his
retirement from the position which he has

well.
One of the heaviest rain storms of the sea
son visited this place on Thursday afternoon
of last week, and for the space of an hour the
rain descended in torrents. The pavements
in the neighborhood of Fifth and Church
streets were covered with gravel to the depth
of a foot or more.
Our old-time friend, John Penn Jones, esq ,
for many years the able editor of the Hollidays
burg Register, but now a department clerk in

Railroad Company in this city. The wheels

for each wheel manufactured.—Altoona Tri
bune.
On Monday afternoon we had the pleasure
of taking by the hand our young legal friend,
R. A. Orbtson, esq., of St. Paul, Minn., who is
visiting friends iq this place. He speaks in
flattering terms of his new home, and looks as
if the climate of that region agreed with him.
He is a clever fellow, and we are pleased to
know that his star is in the ascendant.
Owing to our largely increased circulation
the JOURNAL offers superior advantages to ad
vertisers. Our edition is now over 2,000 copies
weekly, and the paper is read by the best class
of citizens in the county. Farmers and others
who have real estate to sell should avail
themselves of the advantages our large cir
culation gives them. If you want to either
sell or buy advertise in the JOURNAL.
This from the M'Veytown Journal's report
of the last day of the Juniata Valley camp
meeting: "A rosy-cheeked typo; attached to
the Huntingdon "Local News," and whose
name nearly dislocated the jaws of the juvenile
in his endeavors to pronounce it, was euchred
out of a girl early in the evening but managed
to capture one in time for the boat ride. In
the bright lexicon of youth there's no such
word as fail."
We have been handed, by the building com
mittee of the Baptist church, of this place, a
card, in which that body gives a statement of
the receipts and expenditures of the fair and
festival recently held for the puipose of rais
ing funds to aid in paying the church debt,
from which we learn that the total receipts
from all sources were $400.24, the expenses
$66.33, and the net profits $333.91. The com
mittee returns its thanks to the public for the
very liberal patronage received.
The Lewistown True Democrat advises an
old maids' show at the coming Mifflin county
fair, and adds that that town "has enough of
'em to make a grand display." If you hear
of a Juniata Valley pencil-shaver being among
the missing one of these fine mornings, you
can bet your last shekel that it is Fry singer,
for the old maids of that town will Morganize
him the first time they have a good chance to
wreak their vengeance upon him. Get your
"tin ware scoured," man, for you are a- 4, 1;0ne
fawn skin."
We understand that a petition is about to
be prepared and circulated for signers asking
the Town Council to extend the Fifth street
sewer to the northern end of that thoroughfare.
We see no valid reason why the council should
not comply with the wishes of the petitioners.
There never will be a time when material and
labor can be had lower than at the present,
and outside the cost of the material no cash
will be required, as the work can be done by
persons who are unable to pay their taxes in
any other way. As soon as the petition is
presented the council should grant the prayers
of the petitioners and proceed at once with the
work.
An old law passed in 1767, by the Legisla
ture of Pennsylvania, has been revived in
Norristown. Andrew flargel, a German baker,
residing in that borough, was brought before
a magistrate on Monday, charged with selling
bread by the loaf. Two prosecutors had bought
bread of him and he had sold it as all bakers
sell, not deeming that there was upon the
statute book a law which made his act an
indictable offense. The law referred to pro
vides, among other things, that each and
every loaf of bread made for sale shall be sold
by the pound avoirdupois, and provisions for
carrying out the law, inflicting a penalty of
$lO for every violation of the law. The de
fendant was held for trial at court.
Brother Fry, of the Newport News, made us
feel quite at home during a brief visit to that
town on Thursday last. We took a ramble
about the town, and were much surprised at
the large number of handsome private resi
dences to be seen on every hand. The town
has several industries which give employment
to a goodly number of people; the most ex
tensive of which is the mammoth steam tan
nery located in the Western part of the place.
There is also a large planing mill in the East
ern section of the town, which, in prosperous
times, employs a score or more of men. There
is an air of neatness about the town which
cannot fail to create a favorable impression
upon any one visiting it for the first time.
The borough authorities would save con
siderable money if they would adopt some
plan for the conduct of the large volume of
water which rushes off the school house hill
during every heavy shower, carrying tons of
grave 4 to the pavements anti gutters along the
upper end of Fifth street. For the removal of
this gravel it costs the borough several dol
lars every time we have a heavy rain fall, and
in a year or two will aggregate quite a suffi
cient sum to extend the sewer far enough up
the street to obviate the trouble. This trouble
and expense will continue until the sewer is
extended to that point, and the sooner it is
done the better it will be for those living in
that vicinity and the tax-payers generally.
Several years ago Mr. Casper Fox, a former
well known resident removed from Johnstown
with his family and subsequently located in
Memphis, Tennessee. As soon as the yellow
fever broke out in that city he sent his daugh
ter on to Johnstown, with the understanding
that she should remain with relatives in
Cambria borough until the epidemic would
run its course. They did not feel alarmed fur
themselves, but it seems shortly after the
departure of the young woman her mother
was taken down with the terrible disease and
soon died. Her father also fell a victim
within a day or two after the demise of his
wife, and last week the young woman received
papers containing the announcement that
they had both passed beyond the grave.—
Johnstown Tribune.
On the first of October a new rule will go
into effect in the Postoffice . Department. After
that date all third-class matter can be regis
ter2d at the same rate as that charged for
registering letters--viz.: ten cents. Third
class matter comprises all articles of wearing
apparel, &c., and the rate for carrying is one
cent for each ounce, in packages whose weight
is limited to four pounds. There is another
grade of third-class matter, ouch as books,
pamphlets, &c., for which the charge is One
cent for every two ounces. This also can be
registered. You can send just as many
packages as you please and register each of
them, the only restriction being that each
must weigh but four pounds.

DESTRUCTIVE CONFLAGRATION.—ONE
OF THE MT. UNION STEAM TANNERIES TN RUINS.
—One of the large steam tanneries of A. W.
Faust & Son, in Mt. Union, twelve miles cast
of this place, was totally destroyed by fire on
Tuesday morning lagt. The fire was discovered
at 2 o'clock A. M., and a little later a telegram
was received at this place asking for aid. The
fire alarm was sounded, and in twenty minutes'
tinie the "Huntingdon" and the Hook and
Ladder truck were at the railroad waiting for
transportation, but owing to the delay in get
ting trucks ready to carry them it was three
o'clock before they were able to get away.
We accompanied the "boys," and made the
run to Mt. Union, twelve miles distant, in just
seventeen minutes. Arriving upon the ground
we found the buildings entirely consumed, and
only a sea of fire to denote where they bad
stood. The stock in the main building, con
sisting of dried hides, &c., was saved, but the
machinery was all destroyed, together with
some 2,500 cords of bark in sheds. The "Hun
tingdon" played two streams upon the ruins
from half-past three until 10 o'clock, and in
doing so saved the hides in the vats. The
main building was 260140 feet, and contained
all the improved machinery necessary for the
successful carrying on of the business. Through
the efforts of the citizens of the place the ad
jacent buildings were saved. We are in
formed that by the destruction of this property
some twenty hands are thrown out of employ
ment, which will prove a disaster to them and
will be sorely felt by the business men of this
thriving little town.
The fire originated in one of the bark sheds,
and was beyond question the work of an in
cendiary, as the smell of coal oil was quite
perceptible to those who reached the scene
before the fire had secured much headway.—
We understand that the Messrs. Faust have an
insurance upon the buildings sufficient to
cover their loss, and we presume they will
at once proceeded to replace the buildings.
Our firemen are loud in their praise of the
kind treatment received at the hands of the
citizens of the place.
P. S.—Since the above was put in type the
great pile of bark upon which the "Hunting
don" threw two streams of water for the
space of seven hours, has again become a
living flame, and the services of our "boys"
were called into requisition on Wednesday.
They loaded the steamer and started for the
field of their labor at 4:15 P. M.
A CARD.—Afessrs. Editors: In compli
ance with what seems to be the desire of
friends and well wishers, the building com
mittee of the Baptist Church in this place
submit the following statement showing the
result of the late fair and festival held for the
purpose of raising funds to aid in completing
their new church edifice
Total receipts from all sources.. s4oo 24
Total Expenses 66 33
Net profits 5333 91
All of which is thankfully received, as so
much towards lifting the heavy burden rest
ing on the congregation in their effort to carry
forward, in the midst of these "troublous
times" of pecuniary embarrassment and
general business prostration, the work of
building a house for the Lord. The Commit
tee, in behalf of the Church, would avail
themselves of this opportunity of expressing
their thanks to the citizens of the town and
community, the local press, and the public
generally for the generous aid and liberal
patronage afforded on this occasion, to which,
under God. they have been so largely indebted
fur the amount realized.
POISONING BY PEACH STONES.—A
fatal case of poisoning by peach stones, which
is noted in the French papers as having recently
occurred in Paris, should serve as a warning
to families iu which children are allowed to
look after themselves for hours at a time.
Probably very few adults themselves know how
poisonous peach stones are. The victim of
the recent accident in Paris secreted the stones
of a number of peaches, and obtaining a ham•
met) when left alone broke them open indus
triously and ate them ; the result being that
he was fatally poisoned by hydrocyanic
(prussic) acid. Since the peach season is
now upon us, it is as well to explain what
quantity of poison the peach stone possesses.
Writers on toxicology state that one ounce of
the kernels contain about one grain of pure
prussic acid, and this quantity, it is well
known, is sufficient to kill any adult person.
Even two-thirds of a grain has very often
proved fatal, and indeed may well be regarded
us a fatal dose for any child.—Altoona Sun.
THE ST. CLOUD HOTEL.—To a dis
criminating housekeeper a stroll through the
St. Cloud Hotel, Seventh and Arch streets,
Philadelphia, is as good as a play or a picture
gallery. An air of neatness and cleanliness is
everywhere visible, while the most obliging
and attentive servants administer to your
wants, and in many cases anticipate them.—
The sleeping rooms are large, comfortably and
elegantly furnished, while the table always
includes a bill of fare eminently satisfactory
to those who appreciate good living. We know
of no business success that is more deserved
than that which has masked this hotel from
its inception. Dining the dull season the pro
prietors, G. W. Mullin & Co.. have had an
army of artisans at work, the result of whose
labor is manifest in the thorough renovation
the house has undergone. We would suggest
to those visiting the city that in point of
comfort, location and combined conveniences,
the St. Cloud stands second to none.

An occasional wild pigeon is to bc seen, but
a flock of them is a rarity in this region so far
this season.

We learn from the Altooua _Mirror that our
old friend, Rev. Geo. Guyer, had to pay a fine
for shooting a squirrel, on Saturday last, in
the vicinity of Bell's Mills, Blair county.
The Juniata, from Mt. Union to Newport,
must be capital fishing ground, judging from
the number of anglers that we saw the other
day, during a trip between these placer.—
Several of them had some fine bass.
A party of four or five persons started for a
coon hunt, on Friday evening last, but when
they reached the hunting grounds, on Piney
Ridge, instead of the dogs starting out to tree
the game, they got into a general fight, and :t
kept their respective owners active to prevent
them from "chawing" each other up.
Esquire Murray brought to town the first
string of squirrels of the season, on Monday
last. It contained three squirrels, and the
'Squire says he did the shooting himself, but
some of the Nimrods hereaways are disposed
to think that the game was purchased from
some more expert marksman. We give the
'Squire credit for the first blood.
SHIRLEY JOTTINGS BY "BOIL"
On Saturday last ten plows could be seen
at work in one field. They turned over the

A very heavy rain fell here on Thursday
last, swelling the water in the streams and

The late rains have bronv,ht the corn on
finely, and a fair yield is looked for; some
farmers say that their corn will be better than
last year.
Benj. F. Foust was in our town one day this
week. Suppose lie is setting his Democratic
brethren right here. Guess it won't work in

The Methodists of this circuit held their
quarterly meeting in Orhisonia, on Saturday
and Sunday last. Rev. McKindles, of Newton
Hamilton, presided. We learn that a female
steward was elected. Dad Logan was on
hand, electionering we suppose.
A lad, son of Mr. Crowley, of Mt. Union
district, while riding through the bridge, be•
low this place, one day last week, his horse
stumbled at the end of the bridge and fell over
the bank. The horse had one leg broken,
and was otherwise injured, and to put him out
of his misery he was shot. The boy escaped
without much injury.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
THE CHAMPION DIRT SLINGER
CASSYILLE, Sept. 2, 1873.
EDITOR JOURNAL—Dear Sir :—I see in the last
issue of the JOURNAL that you recommend corres
pondents to "boil it down." Now, I would ask
you for information, when we get to writing about
the Greenback party, which is entirely made up
of scums, will it bear this kind of treatment? I
fear that after boiling and skimming we would have
nothing left to send to you.
. .
Before me I have the last issue of the Greenback
Natianalist—Speer's newspaper No. 2. I have
looked over its political items and would like to
give the readers of the JOURNAL some little idea
of this paper, but really I can find no words in our
language that will fully set forth my views of this
sheet. It is as full of treason as any paper ever
published South of Mason and Dixon's line during
the rebellion. Its items are made up of low.
slanderous thrusts against the best citizens in our
county. It is full of all subtlety, malice and re
venge. Its owner and reputed editor must have
the very poisons of Asps under their tongues. I
would like to give the readers of the JOURNAL a
little extract from this _Nationalist, to show the
elevated talent'that has been employed to conduct
it, and in doing this have selected an item that
will be as little calculated to injure the morals of
its readers as anything in the paper:
"It will soon be in order for some shilly-shally,
namby-bamby, Oh good Lord, oh good devil,
journal, presided over by souse amiable Mrs.
Grundy, to arise in its night attire and administer
unto the wicked, vulgar and barbarous Iluutingdon
scribes a certain lecture on theinhumanity of tell
ing political tricksters, ringsters grid shysters of
the iniquity of their ways."
I have no comment to make on the above, it
speaks for itself This contemptible sheet charges
the Republicans with being controlled by Woods
and Orlady. This is a false charge, without the
least foundation, and only used for political effect:
I do know that Messrs. Woods and Orlady had as
little to do in getting up the present Republican
ticket, as any other two politicians in the county.
The Republican party is too intelligent to be led
by any two men or any set of men. While the
"Great Greenback Labor-Reform," and Democrat
ic parties are held in R. Milton Speer's coat pock
ets, they shoul3 talk about a ring-master! No
Southern master ever had his slaves under better
control. Whom he will he "sets up," whom he
will he puts down; to one ho says come, and he
cometh, and to another go, and he goeth, and it is
more than any one of them dare refuse to move
at of his bidding.
The command is obeyed, no difference how re
pulsive the act to be performed may be, if ho says
so, they must throw mud at their best friend, slan
der a neighbor, or "oat crow." I say that no slaves
under the whip ever obeyed the command of a
master better, They should talk about Republi-
cans being led by ring-tuasterg. In conclusion, I
think the publishers of the Noliomtliet must put a
very Invi estimate on the intelligence and morals
of its patrons, to say nothing about patriotism
when they th•nicof entertaining them with such a
sheet. OCCASIONAL.
The lengthy address of the Eon. S. R. Mason.
Greenback candidate for Governor of Pennsylva
nia, on Wednesday nieht last, in the Court House,
clearly demonstrated the following significant
facts That he had expected for about twenty
years to be carried into uffice by the Democratic
party; that it always failed to elect, each year
"hoping to succeed the next year ;" that he is still
an unconverted Descoerzt ; that he joined the new
party for a special purpose; that the new party
expects to elect a rew class of men to office of
which he is one.
The historical Dart of his speech, so far as it
related t> the greenbacks nail bonds, was well ar
ranged sod in accordance with tha facts, hnt his
remedy for the impending troubles, a. pictured
by him, means rcpn , liatian and 'is a fallacy, and
woulu prove, if !Tidied, to he a fraud upon Ainer
isan citizens. He forgot to tell the cadence that
the paper currency of Venice, at' which so much
boast is ma to, was an intere I beariny currency,
while he wishes the bonds taken up by a pronthie
to pay, and nothing but "the credit of the govern
ment" back of it, far beyond its ability to pay.
His tirade against President Hayes was an insult
to every right thinking man iu the.andience.
An old physician, retired from practice, having
had placed in his hands by an East India mission
ary the formula of a simple vegetable remedy, for
the speedy and permanent cure for consumption,
bronchitis, catarrh, asthma, ant all throat and
lung affections, also a positive and radical cure
for nervous debility and all nervous complaints,
after having tested its wonderful curative powers
in thousands of cases, has felt it his duty to make
it known to his suffering fellows. Actuated by
this motive, and a desire to relieve human suffer
ing, I will send, free of charge, to all who desire
it, this recipe, with full directions for preparing
and using, in German, French, or English. Sent
by mail by addressing with stamp, naming this
paper, W. W. Sherar, 149 Powers' Block, Roches

To all those who are suffering from the errors
and indiocretions of youth, nervous weakness,
early decay, loss of manhood, .kc., I will send a
recipe that will cure you, FREE OF CHARGE.
This great remedy was discovered by a missionary
in South America. Send a self-addressed envelope

MoCALL.—On the 26th ult., in Henderson town
ship, Mrs. Rachel McCall, aged 64 years, 3
months and 11 days.
Mother McCall united with the Reformed church
early in life and until within a few months of her
death loved to be in the sanctury of the Lord to
hear the preached word. Nor did this love cease,
but she was too feeble to go. We never recorded
the death of a more consistent, pious woman. If
she had an enemy we are not aware of it. En
cumbered by no worldly care, her last expressed
wish—we may say a prayer—was fur the salva
tion of all her children.
Lord, we commit this our mother to Thee.
Whose body is dead, but whose spirit is free,
We know that through grace, when our life here
is done,
We live still in Thee, and forever in one.
