issue, died about 2 o'clock on Monday morn

This from an exchange is good/advice :
"Habitual promenading of the streets by young

Chief-of-police John H. Westbrook pre•-

Jacob Shape, a brakeman on one of the
freight trains of the national line, fell off the
bumper, near Tipton, on Saturday morning,
and had his left foot and hand crushed. His
foot and two or three of his fingers were am
putated. Ho is a single man, and hails from
Harrisburg.
The multiplication of poison germs iu dis
eases of the blood is exceedingly rapid, and,
if unchecked, vitiates all the blood of the body.
Dr. Bull's Blood Mixture by its peculiar in
fluence fills these germs, and purifying the
blood, removes all possible chance of disease
establishing itself.
Bob Westbrook is fitting up his saloon in
good style for the oyster season, and when
completed will be the coziest place in town.
He always keeps a large stock of the best,
freshest and cheapest oysters to be had in the
market. What Bob don't know about the
oyster trade ain't worth learning.
The series of meetings held by our Catholic
friends, in this place, last week, were largely
attended by members of that church, as well
as by members of other denominations, and
much interest was manifested in the services.
We understand that similar services will be
held at Shade Gap in the near future.
We understand that a trio of young black
guards, who are a disgrace to the town, picked
a quarrel with a couple of strangers, in the
vicinity of Portstown, on Sunday last, and,
coward like, struck one of them a severe blow
with a stone. A whipping-post would be the
proper thing for these youthful scoundreli g ,
See the first page for "Spectator's" rep-
the "Manly Letter" of Rev. Doyle. Ile isV
honorable and truthful gentleman who wou
not willingly misrepresent any man. In his
strictures on the Rev. Doyle's speech, published
in the JOURNAL of the 23d ult., he confined him
self strictly to the truth, as he does in all mat
ters of which he writes.
Huntingdon has a few individuals who, as
the old saw has it, "are running politics into
the ground," and if they just keep on at the
rate they are now going, those of them who
have any visible means of support will have
their business "run in the ground" by Novem
ber, and they can go on talking finance and
nonsense the remainder of the year.
D. S. Africa and family left for their Texas
home on Tuesday evening last. A large num
ber of friends and relatives were at the depot
to bid them good-bye and wish them luck. It'
any other person can succeed in that region
our friend Africa can, for he has the "get up"
in him for that or any other country.
An old shed, one hundred feet long and
forty wide, used as a barn by Mr. John Kratzer,
at Ashland Furnace, Cambria county, was
blown down during the heavy gale of Thurs
day night, burying seventeen head of cattle
and nine head of sheep beneath the ruins.—
Two or three cows and one sheep were in
jured to such an extent that they had to be
killed.
We are pleased to 'see that our friend, Mr.
Jackson Lamberson, who was injured so se
verely several weeks ago by failing off the
Mill Creek bridge, a detailed notice of which
appeared in the JOURNAL at the time, is able
to be out, and with the aid of crutches can
travel our streets. Ile has had a severe time
of it, and it will be a long while yet before he
is able to resume work.
A tramp tattooist was arrested in Harris
burg, the other day, and sent to prison for six
mouths. The loathsome disease innoculated
into the systems of numerous citizens of Berks
county, a year or two ago, should be sufficient
warning for people to.have nothing to do with
these scoundrels. Whenever one of them
makes his appearance in any community he
should be promptly locked up.
Some fellow who believes in and practices
the teachings of communism, one night last
week stole a sack of coffee, a lot of shoes, a
quantity of tobacco, and a number of other
articles from the warehouse of our clever
friend, John T. Shirley, esq., at Cove Station,
on the line of the H. & B. T. R. R. This
makes the third or fourth time that fi
Shirley has been robbed by these Communists.
Four drunken blackguards from Altoona
went to a picnic at Newry, Blair county, on
Saturday last, and amused themselves by firing
the contents of their revolvers promiscuously
amongst the crowd. One of the pic-nickers
was shot iu the foot. Two of the rowdies were
arrested and lodged in jail, and by the time
they have justice meted out to them they will
wish that they had learned to behave them
selves.
We are under obligations to Harry Cohen,
formerly of this place, but now of Dallas,
Texas, for a small box of cotton grown in that
region. Some of the pods were open, some
partially so, and others closed. The cotton
looked remarkably clean and white, and per
sons who profess to be judges, pronounced
this equal to the famous sea island cotton,
which takes precedence orer all other kinds
in the market.
The Coleman Sisters drew a good house,
during their visit here last week, but were
prevented from carrying out their intended
programme on account of the Trustees of the
Presbyterian church, who have the Penn street
hall under their control, objecting to them
doing so, They dispensed with the play but
treated the audience to some good music.—
There was great disappointment on the part
of the audience.
A quartette of half-grown boys were arresteed
on Saturday last for playing cards in one of
the buildings belonging to the Messrs. Fisher.
Some two or three others, who had entered
the plaster mill for the same purpose, and
broke a hole through the roof in order to get.
light, are still at large. They will find out it
don't pay to punch holes in the roofs of their
neigigbor's buildings to make sky-lights by
which to indulge their propensity for gaming.
Fisher & Sons are having a substantial stone
wall laid along the edge of the race leading
from their plaster, sumac and saw mills to the
main race which conducts the water from
their flouring mill. We understand that this
wall is being built for the purpose of enabling
this enterprising firm to fill up the space be
tween the race and the public road, which,
when completed, will add materially to the ap
pearance of their premises and enhance their
value.
This is the mushroom season, and people
cannot be too cautious, not only in avoiding
toad-stools, but In taking care not to use the
true mushroom when past its time. In Oc
tober, 1851, two officers of the garrison sta
tioned at Bruges, Belgium, ate at dinner a
sauce made with mushrooms. A few hours
later they were seized with colic, and before
morning died in convulsions. Their case ex
cited great interest and it was then stated by
an eminent chemist that there is poison in a
true mushroom, the agaricus campestris, after
a certain stage. It is wise, therefore, to avoid
any which indicate the slightest tendency to
decay.—Ezehange.

A SHOCKING DEATH —Death, of a
iril::arn-lbuT Young Lao'" who was Bitten by
a Blowing Viper. The Corpse Swells to Twice
its Natural Size.—The correspondent of the
Tribune at Williamsburg, "Galia," writes the
following account of a shocking occurrence in
that village under date of Wednesday :
A terrible calamity hefel our esteemed fel
low citizen, Dr. Paulhamus, and his lovely
and accomplished daughter. Eleanor, last
evening. It seems that a couple of weeks ago
two tramps captured a pair of enormous rep
tiles which the doctor pronounced to be of
that deadly species known as "blowing viper."
The doctor, having a desire to contribute
something that would commend itself from
this district, purchased the reptiles, intending
to forward them to the zoological gardens in
Philadelphia. Biding their transportation the
snakes were placed iu a large glass jar, the
top being carefully secured by a coveriug of
wire gauze. The jar was then placed on an
elevated bracket in a remote corner of the
doctor's office. Last evening the doctor and
his daughter were returning from a visit to
the country, and the doctor • having occasion
to make up a prescription, they both entered
his office, the doctor lighting a lamp. And
now comes the terrible denouement. A large
owl swept in through the transom above the
door, and flew with the speed of an arrow
against the lamp, knocking it over and
scattering the oil and broken glass in every
direction, while a general crash of bottles
and glasses was heard on every side. Mean
time the doctor had lit another match, but
just in time to receive his daughter,
who
sprang with a wild cry to his arms, and in a
moment realized the situation. The owl had
disloged the jar from the bracket and the
vipers were at large. Speedily he groped his
way, calling loudly for help, which, the hour
being late, was slow to put in appearance.
They seemed slow, but scarcely five minutes
elapsed until full a dozen ladies and brave
men were on the spot. No living hand can
indite the horrors of the next few minutes.
Miss Eleanor, who had been insensible since
she sprang to her father's arms, was now being
cared for by the ladies, when one simultaneous
shriek almost froze the blood and paralyzed
each nerve—yet not all I It was Thomas Lutz's
hand that seized the glittering reptile by the
neck and choked its fearful fangs apart. It
had bitten the lady midway between the
ankle and the knee. She was now carried
immediately to her home, where every known
antidote for poison was administered by her
now frantic father, but all to no avail. She
died at 6:30 o'clock this morning. After
taking the poor unfortunate young lady home
some of the men, knowing there had been two
snakes, returned to the office and soon
despatched the other. Au examination show
ed its two large fangs missing. This led to
the conjecture that possibly the doctor had
been bitten. A hasty return and close exam
ination resulted in finding the fangs in the
thick leathers of the doctor's boots, who being
so alarmed for his daughter, had not the
slightest knowledge of being struck.
The corpse of the young lady has swollen
to enormous dimensions, while her general
complexion is in harmony with the spots and
general coloring of the snake. The largest of
the snakes measured four and a half feet, the
smallest four feet. They are pronounced by
our old people the largest of the species. It
was the shortest one of the two that bit the
young lady. Our community is wild with ex
citement., and great sympathy is manifested
for the doctor and his family, who have been
here but a short time. —Altoona Tribune, 12th
inst.
Since the above was put in type we under
stand that the whole story is a sell, as no such
a man as Dr. Paulhamus resides in Williams
burg, neither was anybody bit by a viper or
any other hind of a snake.
ENTERPRISE.—We copy the following
from The American Bookseller, New York :
Few people can have failed to notice the
great enterprise, if they have not observed
the scrupulous care with which Messrs. D.
Lothrop & Co., have published a class of
books adapted to the highest culture of the
people.
It, is only ten years since they commenced
the work of publishing, and their list now
numbers more than six hundred volumes.
We are glad to make record, that brave and
persistent following of a high ideal has been
successful.
Messrs. D. Lotbrop &Co.. have given special
attention to the publication of books for
children and youths, rightly considering that
in no department is the best, as regards literary
excellence and purity of moral and religious
reading, of so great importance. Yet the
names of works by such authors as Austin
Phelps, D. D., Francis Wayland, and Dr.
Wayland, and Dr. Nehemiah Adams on their
catalogue, will show that maturer readers
have not been uncared for.
Of their work projected for the coming sea
son, we have not room to speak in detail ; it
will suffice for the present to say that it is
wide in range, including substantial and
elegantly illustrated books, all in the line of
the practical and useful, and fresh in character
and treatment.
Their two juvenile magazines, Wide Awake
and Babyland, are warmly welcomed in every
part of the English-speaking world.
We advise any of our readers who desire to
know more about these publications, to send
to Dr. Lothrop & Co., Boston, for an illustrated
catalogue.'
All who visit their establishment, corner of
Franklin and Hawley streets, will not only be
courteously welcomed and entertained, but
will have the pleasure of seeing one of the
most spacious and attractive book stores in
the country.
DEATH OF SAMUEL MTABE.—The sad
news of the death of Samuel M'Cabe reached
this place on Saturday morning last, but up
to this time we have been unable to learn the
full particulars, and all that we do know we
glean from the meagre reports in the daily
papers. The deceased was employed as a
freight engineer on the Pittsburgh & Erie rail
road, and on the night of his death was sent
over the road to assist in removing a wreck
caused by the washing away of a bridge during
the heavy rain and storm of that night. While
moving along the track a trestle near Shenango
gave way and precipitated his engine to the
ground, and in the fall Mr. M'Cabe and his
fireman were killed and a brakeman so badly
injured that it is thought he cannot recover.
Messrs. Edward and John M'Cabe, of our town,
brothers of the deceased, started for the scene
of the disaster and were present at the funeral
obsequies of their brother. The deceased was
a native of this town, and a son of Mr. James
M'Cabe, but for a number of years past has
been employed on the P. &E.R. R. He was
about 35 years of age, and leaves two small
motherless children, his wife having died
several weeks ago. His aged parents and
friends have the sympathies of the community
in their sad affliction.
SERIOUS ACCIISENT—TWO HORSES
DnowNED.—On Tuesday morning as Mr. William
Foster was on his way to this place, with a
load of lumber, he met with a serious accident
at what is known as the "Black Bridge," a few
miles from this borough,- in Oneida township.
He bad four horses hitched4o his wagon, and
when the team and wagon were fairly on the
bridge the structure gave way, and precipitated
them into the waters of Stone Creek. In going
down the wagon turned over, and in doing so
the breast-chains became wrapped about the
tongue of the wagon in such a way that before
Mr. Foster could loose them the wheel horses,
whose heads were held down by these chains,
were drowned. The leaders succeeded in
reaching the shore, and we understand escaped
without serious injury. Mr. Foster, who was
driving the team, escaped with a few slight
scratches and a good ducking. The water at
this place is several feet deep, but had it not
been for the unfortunate circumstance of the
chains becoming wrapped around the tongue
the horses could base been saved, as it appears
they did not sustain any injury from the fall.
This is a county bridge, abd if we are not
mistaken was built within the past three or
four years.
SUNDAY RAILROAD WORK —The ac
tions commenced a couple of years ago in
Blair County against the employees of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company who engaged
in their regular work on Sunday, have been
terminated. It will be remembered that
almost all the employes of the road,. whose
duties required some secular work on that
day, were put under arrest, and were convicted
before the Alderman and sentenced to pay the
penalty prescribed by the law. The defense
that their labor consisted only in "works of
necessity,",was of no avail with the magistrate.
The cases were all taken before Judge Dean
and argued on writs of certiorari, and the
Altoona Tribune says that after full and able
argument by counseland careful consideration
by the Court, judgment was given in favor of
the employes, and the following decree entered
in each case :
July Term, 1878. It is ordered that the judg
ment and proceedings in this case be reversed and
wholly set aside. BY THE COURT.

SPORTINO NOTES
The Clearfield Sportsmen's Association Las
disbanded.
A grand hunt is on the tapis . in Clearfield
county, as we learn from the Journal.
We have not beard of a single wild pigeon
having been killed in this vicinity this season.
Howard Miller succeeded in taking a four
and-a-half pound bass from the waters of "the
blue Juniata" on Thursday last.
Henry Greenberg, of our town, caught six
teen bass in the Juniata, below the lower dam,
one day last week, and says he could have
caught as many more if he had so desired.
The pigeon roost in Forest county is said
to have netted the catchers of the birds the
sum of $9,000. It is estimated that 150,000
were destroyed by gunners and trappers.
A couple of Clearfield lads named Plymp
ton, one day last week shot and killed nineteen
black and gray squirrels. Two other sport
men on the same day, killed thirteen, and the
day following atioLher Nimrod bagged ten.
J. C. Long and John Miller, of our town,
during a day's fishing, last week, in the
waters of the Raystown Branch , captured
thirty bass and twenty four sun fish. This is
a pretty good showing for non-professionals.
A couple of members of the Hare and
Hound Club were out the other day for the
purpose of giving their dogs a little exercise,
and we understand they started up a half
dozen cotton tails within a radius of half a
mile. "Music" was the favorite dog of the
party.
On last Saturday, while on a squirrel hunt,
Frank Waring discovered a blacksnake on the
top of a tall sapling, evidently watching a
gray squirrel's nest, which was within a few
feet of it. After his snakeship received two
rifle balls and a charge of shot he tumbled
down, and measured his seven feet on the
cold, cold ground.—Tyrone Herald.
William McCaully, a farmer living near
Buckhorn, about five miles from this city, on
Friday evening last killed a bear weighing
almost three hundred pounds. A number of
sheep belonging to Mr. MeCaully and others
in the neighborhood have of late been killed,
and the impression was that the destruction
was caused by dogs. A watch was set, and
after several nighs' scouting old Bruin was
caught in the act and brought down.—Altoona
Tribune.
Does the World Move ?
The Rev. John Jasper, of Virginia, says,
We sun do move, for in d 3 mornin' it shines
on die side ob de hous, while in de ebenin, on
hat side ob de hous. Now, of he don't move,
Now come he da.r ?" Notwithstanding Mr.
Jasper's logic, we yet believe the world moves.
When Mr. Jasper's ideas constituted the pop
ular belief, people thought that to die of small
pox or cholera was simply fulfilling one of
nature's laws. Now, through vaccination,
small-pox is averted, while cholera, cholera
morbus, dysentery (flux), and diarrhocea ; are
readily cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Com
pound Extract of Smart-Weed. Does not
such evidences tend to prove that "the world
wove•?" As an external remedy for cuts,
bruises, sprains, swellings, bites and stings of
insects, the Compound Extract of Smart-Weed
has no equal. Veterinary surgeons have also
employed it with marked success.
TIIE MIFFLIN COUNTY FAIR

licans of Clay township, Three Springs and

The "What is It" Simmering Down.
Immediately after we disposed of the Green
back Nationalist, there appeared in the Monitor
of this place, a most slanderous, vindictive,
toul-mouthed and malicious attack on our
course as an editor and our character as a
private citizen, which was as full of falsehood as
anything could be, and all without any cause or
provocation whatever, as we had never spok
en, written nor published anything derogatory,
much less abusive, either directly or iudirctly
of said journal or its editor and proprietor—
Mr. Fletnipg—at least nothing in our recollec
tion. llehce, its venomous attack and malig
nent lying accusations were as unlooked for
as they were unjustifiable. We might, and
perhaps, should have treated the mean and
cowardly assault' with "silent contempt" as it
really deserved to be, but being comparatively
a stranger here, we thought it demanded some
notice on our part. And accepting the kind
ness and courtesy extended us by the leading
paper in this section, the JOURNAL, we "took
up the glove," (that still retained the odor of
a serpents' den) and repelled the infamous at
tack of our new and unprincipled enemy, or
rather enemies, for we are fully aware that
the editor of the Monitor was not alone in do
ing his nefarious work.
Our explanations, which he affects to not
notice, and which were supplemented by
counter charges of a very serious and damag
ing nature, made direct §nd to the point, and
put it as strong as they could be, have remain
ed uncontradicted and unanswered to this
day. And so they will remain, because they
are positively true—but rather unwholesome
truths!
A second article then appeared, which was
in general a repetition of the first one. Al
though slightly modified in regard to libelous
ness, yet it was equally, if not more scurrilous
than its predecessor, and withal contained
some of the most ridiculous assertions and
conclusions ever written by any one not a can
didate for an insane asylum. To that shower
of mud, we again replied, following the Scrip
tural injunction, 'Answer a fool according to
his folly."
And now the vanishing, vanquished foe,
picks up just one little handful more of his
black, foul and disgusting stuff, and appar
ently makes his last fling at ye defendant.
Happily it does not possess the power of stick
ing to a person and thus no permanent injury
results.
We observe that the poor soul is still trou
bled, or rather those "behind the scenes" are,
about the authorship of a certain communi
cation we once inserted in the Greenback Na
tionalist, as it denounced "fusion," advocated
straight-outprinciples and the maintenance of
an independent party, &c. But it is all in
vain, gentlemen (?) you may surmise, guess
and suppose whom you please, you can't make
us expose a correspondent, for we know our
duty better. And further, your wanting to
know the authorship thereof, is all a mere
blind. If we did tell you it wouldn't amount
to "shucks." It was the contents of the com
munication that did the business—that's what
"struck Dougherty !" For instance, what on
earth would be the odds, if say, Ur. Fisher
would write an article for the Monitor, if it
alluded only to the crops, penitentiary or slack
water navigation, and sick But should he
write politics—advising a combinatiOn of
hard-money Democrats with the Republicans,
and to cut loose from Boss Speer—that would
be interesting. In fact it might raise a rum
pus in your affairs. Now every fair-minded per
son will admit that it would be the contents
cr subject of the article instead of its author
that would produce the exciting effects above
mentioned. Then what is the use of keeping
up an abominable braying like a wild ass
with a jumping tooth ache ? It is all foolish
nonsense I And is done, as we said, from the
start, for the purpose of diverting attention
from the main object, which now has become
so plain and self-evident that even a school
boy cannot be deceived thereby.
In conclusion, the editor of the aforesaid
mongrel organ assumes to be too immaculate,
high-toned and genteel to reply to the writer's
second article, leaving his readers to infer that
such a course would really pollute his mud
slinging apparatus ; which is doubtless true, if
one takes as a sample the closing sentence of
the item concerning us in his late issue, where
he uses the vilest slang of the "cock-pit fra
ternity," who are considered the lowest class
of creatures in a civilized community. What
a paragon of refinement—model of genteel
journalism ? This applies to those who Make
the balls as well as him who threw them.
We do hope that this is the last time we
are compelled to appear in public print in this
unenviable capacity, as personal contention is
not interesting to the people in general and
is certainly disagreeable to the writer, how
ever congenial it may be to our chivalrous (?)
foeman—who like old Goliah, armed with
monstrous Spe(a)r, cane forth, not to fight,
but to crush at one fell blow, his little antag
onist, David, the shepherd boy, who had
naught but a sling and pebbles, and strong
faith in the justice of his cause and his God,
smote the overgrown and haughty Philistine
braggart in a most vulnerable place, that laid
him low in death, and thereby rid his people
of a tyrant-foe and the world of a nuisance,
Thus '.the battle is not always to the strong,
nor the race to the swift," is an old and true
saying—frequently exemplified.
The reader's patience, like our own,is doubt
less exhz.usted, and we shall close with again
thanking the JOURNAL ftor its kindness, &c.
