The Huntingdon Journal FRIDAY, - - - - OCTOBER 11, 1878, READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. W. L. FOULK, Agent of the Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia Press Association, Is the only person in Pittsburgh authorized to receive advertisements for the JOURNAL. Ile has our best rates. PERSONS HAVING REAL ESTATE FOR SALE SHOULD ADVERTISE IT IN THE "JOURNAL," WHICH PAYS SPECIAL ATTENTION TO MATTERS OF INTEREST TO FARM ERS AND CIRCULATES LARGE LY AMONG THEM. LOCAL AND PERSONAL Brief Mention—Home-made and Stolen. Don't grumble. "Sour grapes." Chestnuts in market. Let's rout the enemy. Gather autumn leaves. Read new advertisements. Candidates are circulating. Straw hats are disappearing. Are you square with the printer ? "Honesty" Miller is on the sick list. Don't idle away your time on the corners. There was a corner in peanuts on Tuesday. The apostate Day made his speech to empty benches. 'Squire Murray was busy roping iu the taxes on Saturday. "Sodom" is a sly "coon," but be has been caged at last. The hog cholera is epidemic in Menno town ship, Mifflin county. The prettiest girl in Huntingdon was at the circus on Tuesday night. There will be a change in the Broad Top schedule on and after Sunday next. There were enough animals with the show to take away the "sin" from the circus. Engineers have commenced the work of sur veying the Bell's Gap ailroad extension. Rev. Jesse R. Akers spent a few days in town last week the guest of Col. Robert Allen. A cold rain storm set in on Saturday evening and prevailed during a greater portion of the night. Our young friend, Al. Fleming has taken charge of the Smithfield school for the winter term. A Cambria county editor is lamenting over the prospect of a corner in sauer kraut in that section this winter. A couple of Blair county capitalists have in contemplation the starting of an extensive beer brewery at Gallitzin. The immense crowd in town on Tuesday was proof that there is virtue iu a liberal and judicious use of printers' ink. We haven't seen a copy of the Altoona Na tionalist for six weeks. Has it quit altogether or has it only suspended again ? Quite an amount of mail matter leaves this place every Sunday on Day Express. Of course the letters are written on Saturday night. Our usually correct contemporary, the Har risburg Telegraph, should re-adjust its specta cles when giving credit for political squibs. There was a rousing Republican meeting in Aitoon - a on Thursday night, which was ad dressed by Governor Hoyt and Hon. Galusha A. Glow. The corner-stone of the new Presbyterian church, at Philipsburg, will be laid, with ap propriate ceremonies to-day, (Thursday), Oc teber 10th. Willis Cobb, Special Press Manager of Sells Brothers' 7-Elephant Railroad Show, is one of the cleverest fellows to be met this side of sun-down. Senator Fisher made a brief and appropriate address to the re-union of The Veteran Asso ciation of Perry county, held at dillerstown on the 9th inst. Dr. R. Allison Miller started last week for Nebraska, whither he goes to visit his son Torn who is doing a lucrative business in the cattle trade. The Presbyterian Synod of Harrisburg will meet in this place on Thursday, October 17. We are informed that two hundred ministers compose this body. Ira Haggerty, jr., a citizen of Centre county, who accompanied the Coiling expedition to Brazil, as a carpenter, died of typhoid fever on the 18th of August. Our townsman, Hon. John M. Bailey, is stumping the State in the interest of the D 3ln ocratic party. He is booked for a speech in this place on the 14th inst. All of them have used Dr. Bull's Blood Mixture. Who ? Those who heretofore suf fered with Boils and Pimples, but who are uosv free from such annoyances. Isaac G. Etter, the oldest engineer on the :Middle Division of she P. R. R., died at his residence, in Altoona, on Thursday of last week, of typhoid pheumonia. The time of the year is at hand for putting up stove pipe, and the recording angel will be kept busy noting down the "cuss words" generally used on such occasions. The Lewistown Sentinel last week published an extensive table of figures in substantiation of its claim that that town is the most de sirable location offered forthe new penitentiary. Our highly esteemed friend, Mrs. A. W. Benedict, who has been confined to her resi dence for several weeks past by severe indis position we are pleased to know is able to be about again. Our friend Lindsay was nosing about the Commissioners' office, on Saturday, to get a little public pap for his paper, we suppose, or perhaps he was there in the interest (?) of the tax-payers. A bite from a rattlesnake is sometimes not more dangerous than a severe cough and cold: A well merited reputation has Dr. Bull's Cough. Syrup, and this remedy is sold by all druggists_ Price 25 cents. When Council orders the making of gutters it should see that all property owners are served alike. Don't compel some to comply with the orders and permit others to treat it. as a dead letter. Our jovial young friend, D. S. Black, of this place, during one of his rural rambles, on Saturday last, caught a half-grown snake, brought it to town and bottled it for the in spection of the curious. The news from Ohio on Wednesday morning, had the effect of making the three or four blatant Greenbackers, who daily roam our streets from early morning until unseasonable bed time, as quiet as mice. H. C. Weaver and J. C. Smiley, of this place. have received the contract for rebuilding the "Black Bridge," in Oneida township. They get $595 for the job. Arcby Dell gets $196 for building a canal bridge above Mill Creek. Puck: lt, is right, perhaps, to denounce Eve as the author of all our trouble ; but it should be duly considered in her favor that she didn't run around with an autograph album asking every one to write verses iu ic. The Turner murder case came up at the late terra of the Clearfield county court, when it was postponed until November, when the time and place for the new trial will be fixed. There is some talk of trying the case in our county. Thomas P. Foster, of Altoona, a former resident of this place, and well known to a number of our citizens, had a stroke of appo plexy, one day last week, while seated in the office of his nephew, W. D. Couch, in that city. The Assignee's sale of Aaron Stewart's property on Saturday was adjourned until some time this month. The property on the corner of Fourth and Mifflin streets was bid up to $920, the small house on Fourth street to $4OO, and the Penn street property to $l6OO. We are sorry to announce the indisposition of our clever friend, B. Frank Isenberg, esq., who has been housed for a week or ten days past by a severe bilious attack. We hope that he may speedily be restored to health, as we very much miss his cheery voice along Fifth street. We are informed that one of Altoona's pill peddlers told the Penitentiary Commission that our town was noted for its numerous cases of fever and ague and diseases of a malarial nature. He knew better, and it would have been more to his credit bad he confined him self to the truth. A lie rarely wins. On Saturday night last some nnannointed thief despoiled 'Squire Port's poultry house of a blooded rooster. The chicken was of su perior breed and the 'Squire regrets his loss very much. This is the second time his poultry has been raided upon, hut he has ar ranged to give the next visitor a warm recep tion. Amongst the thousands of people in town on Tuesday we did not see more than a dozen of men under the influence of liquor, and to the discredit of our town we are forced to say that a majority of those were our own citi zens ; professional dead-beats who never let an opportunity pass to get drunk on occasions of this kind. Some postmaster. clerk or route agent is in the habit •of gobbling our copy of the Johns town Tribune about three days out of every week. The Tribune is one of our most valued exchanges, and it makes us cross when we are debarred the pleasure of reading its newsy columns on account of the thieving propensi ties of some of Uncle Sam's employees. The commissioner of internal revenue has ruled that persons who sell Ilostetter's bitters and Drakes' plantation bitters, either by the drink or unbroken packages, are liable to special taxes as liquor dealers, but that it shall be enforced only after November next. Per sons interested in this decision will take due notice and govern themselves accordingly. From now until after the election the col umns of the JOURNAL will contain very little miscellaneous reading matter. We will en deavor to keep up our local department, but out side of this the space will be occupied with political matter. After the election the Joun- NAL will be itself again, and will endeavor to retain its standing as "the best and handsom est paper in the county." We understand that policeman Westbrook made a raid, on Friday night, on the black guards who are in the habit of roaming about the streets at a late hour of the night disturb ing the quiet of the town by their drunken revels. We are informed that there are two or three persons in the habit of joining these midnight blackguards who attempt to pass themselves off as gentlemen in daylight. Farmers are frequently troubled with their wheat moulding after it has been put in the bins. If your wheat is damp and liable to mould, put a few stones or bricks in the gran aries, and after leaving in one day, take them out, and if they appear damp, put in others, that are not moist, and at the end of two or three days the wheat will be perfectly dry and rattle like shot when handled. So says the Per:y county Democr at. An exchange paper says that the frequent mysterious burning of haystacks and farmers' buildings has led to the discovery that they are set on fire by wasps' nests, and that the nests are ignited by spontaneous combustion. This is produced by the chemical action of the wax in contact with the paper-like sub stance of which the nest is composed, a com paratively small access of oxygen being suffi cient to make it burst forth in a blaze. Our lady readers are no doubt busy gather ing ferns for decorating their houses, and as the chief obstacle to pressing ferns for indoor decorations is their disposition to curl up as soon as picked, it is best, therefore, to carry into rural districts a folio made of white, porous paper, covered with stiff pasteboard.— The ferns should be carefully placed between the leaves as fast as gathered, and the stiff cover will hold them in their natural shape. Our esteemed friend, Rev. W. W. Campbell, we are sorry to learn, has concluded to leave our town for the purpose of taking the pastor age of the Presbyterian congregation at Union ville, Centre county, to which field he was assigned by Presbytery during its late session at Lemont, in that county. While the many friends of the Reverend gentleman will be glad to learn that the change will be an advantage to him in a pecuniary point of view they will still be sorry to lose him as a citizen of our town. The Penitentiary Commission arrived in this place on Tuesday afternoon, and after taking dinner at the Leister House, switched their train off on the Broad Top road and visited stone qutrries on the line of that road belong ing to our townsman, David Blair, esq., and John T. Shirley, esq., of Cove Station. They were very much pleased with the quality and quantity of the stone, and the facilities for quarrying them. The Commission returned to town late in the evening and took their de parture, by special train, for Harrisburg. They are very reticent in regard to the location of the building, and several days will elapse be fore it is known which one of the many sites offered will be selected. To BUILD UP A TOWN.—The editor of the Osceola Reveille, talks thus sensibly in last week's issue of that paper : "If you want to build up your town, friends, encourage every one, especially young men, to come and settle among you, particularly those who are active and worthy. Their labor alone is worth money. Those who have capital will buy lots, build houses, and tear out and remove old ones. Go to work and stimulate every legiti mate enterprise by giving it all the encourage ment you can, or by uniting your influence, and capital in, the common cause. Cultivate a public spirit and talk less than you work. Help your neighbor. If he is in danger of breaking down, prop him up in some way, either by kinds words, good works, or a lift from your pocket book. If he gets fairly down before you know his situation, set him on his feet again,—his misfortune is to be pitied, not blamed, and his talents and labors are worth money to the community. It may some day be your turn to need corresponding sympathy. Encourage your newspaper ; if you can't do it positively do it negatively, by not preventing others from encouraging it ; in short, do all you can to bring prosperity to your own door, as well the doors of your neighbors ; and with unity of action like this, your town is bound to step into the front rank of lively business places." We refer the above good advice to tht Nationalist, and, after reading it, we hope it will cease its war against the location of the Middle Penitentiary at this place. That paper is working against the interests of the very men whose cause it professes to champion. For fear that the location of the Penitentiary at this place might make a few votes for Sena tor Fisher it is trying its level best to drive it to some other point. We think the labor ing men of this county will have no difficulty in determining who are their real friends if they will contrast the efforts ofSenator Fisher to secure the location of the new penitentiary at Huntingdon with the efforts of their professed organ to frighten them to look upon its location here as detrimental to their interest. Senator Fisher has always been the friend of the laboNr, and the warm support that he is receiving from that class of our fellow citizens is proof that they fully appreci ate his efforts in their behalf. The laboring man who votes against Horatio G. Fisher votes against his best friend. THE 7 ELEPHANT SRI:AV.—We are not in the habit of "puffing" travelling exhibitions of any kind, but when a really good thing comes this way we feel like saying a kind word for it, and the Grand 7—Elephant Aggre• gation of Sells Brothers being one of this kind we cannot refrain from doing so now. The street procession was one of the grandest and most brilliant affairs that we have ever witnessed in that direction. The hundreds of people who lined the sidewalks were wild with excitement and words of praise were on every lip as the glittering pageant passed. The seven elephants, one of them mounted on the top a huge tableaux car, the drove of eight camels in harness, an open den of lions, with their keeper in their midst, the long line of lavishly gilded cages and wagons, and the army of knights in radiant armor, presented a scene baffling description. The canvass under which the animals were on exhibition was very spacious. The collection of animals was large, and that they were in charge of competent bands was evidenced by the cleanli ness of their cages and the attention given them during the time the cages and dens were thrown open for the sight-seers to view the wonders of the forest and the jungle. Just here we avail ourself of the opportunity to return thanks to Mr, Willis Cobb, Special Press Manager, for the courtesies shown us during our visit to this part of the exhibition. The performance iu the circus pavilion was the best that we have ever witnessed. The riding and tumbling was marvelous, while the trained animals, especially the dogs and monkeys of our friend Cobb, drew forth exclamations of wonder and delight from the large and attentive audience. The manage meat pride themselves en having the best "show on earth," but be this as it may, we have no hesitancy in saying that it is the best that has exhibited in Huntingdon in a decade. BE YE LIKE FOOLISII.—"For ten years my wife was confined to her bed with such a complication of ailments that no doctor could tell what was the matter or cure her, and I used up a small fortune'in humbug stuff. Six months ago I saw a U. S. flag with Hop Bitters on it, and I thought I would be a fool once more. I tried it, but my folly proved to be wisdom. Two bottles cured her, and she is now as well and strong as any man's wife, and it only cost me two dollars. Be ye like foolish."—ll. W., Detroit, Mich. Loct4 2t. SPORTING NOTES Remove the basket 3. C7yrille Dion, the champion billiard player is dead. Dr. Ballantyne is the champion chess player in the Juniata Valley. Onr old friend, David Black, esti., caught another mammoth bass the other day. A two-hundred pound bear was shot near Tyrone a few days ago, by Mr. Wm M'Mullin. A party of Mifflin county fishermen caught a catfish, on an outline, recently, that weighed four pounds and a half. Mike Speice, an amateur hunter of this place, succeeded in bagging three squirrels and a brace of pheasants on Tuesday. Bears seem to be plenty this year. The other day a party coming down the mountain by way of the Dry Gap road encountered au old she bear and two cubs. The old lady took to a tree, but finally come down, and the bruin family took up the mountain.—Aloona Tribune. A party of three or four Nimrods spent one day last week on Warrior Ridge in search of deer. After beating the bush all day towards evening they succeeded in starting a fawn, but owing to the thick foliage of the woods it got away before a bead could be drawn.— From this day's work we are inclined to think that deer are not very plenty in that region. A party of Nimrods of our town have built a large and comfortable cabin, on the lands of the Wilson brothers, several miles up Stone Creek, which they propose to occupy when on an extended hunt in that vicinity. The cabin is rather of a better kind than those usually used for such purposes. It is a frame structure, closely weather-boarded, with windows, fire place, bunks, &c., all complete. It will make a cozy retreat at the close of a hard day's travel through the barrens and over the hills and rocks of that locality. THE HORATIO G. FISHER CLUB.— This is the name of a campaign club organized in this place last week, which now numbers one hundred and eighty members. At a meeting held on Saturday night the following officers were elected : President, 13. C. Wearer; Vice Presidents, Wm. Bricker, Reuben Smith ; Secretary, A. L. Guss ; Corresponding Secre tart', John NV. ;pattern ; Treasurer, W. S. Smith : Doorkeeper, Wesley Murrels ; Janitor, John Wilson. As it is intended as a march ing club the following additional officers were elected : Captain, W. F. Johnson ; First Lieutenant, L. B. Kline ; Second Lieutenant, W. F. Bathurst. A second meeting was held on Monday night, and after transacting the business before it the club adjourned, and the members form ed in line, over a hundred strong, and headed by Gantz's Band marched to the. corner of Third and Peen streets and back to the resi dence of Senator Fisher, where they gave three rousing cheers and a tiger for the man they propose to assist in electing a member of Congress from this district.

JOURNAL :—I can't think the morals of the christian church have become so corrupt as to ap prove and sanction the pretentious and actions of the gentleman whose name is at the head of this article. If Mr. Doyle was called to preach the gos pel of the Lord Jesus Christ,why is he to-day down in the dirty pool of politics ? His conduct on the stump, harrangueing the people, coaxing, beseech ing and palavering them, to vote for him, is the most contemptible and disgusting of any man of whom I ever heard who professed to be called of God to preach. His actions give the lie to his re ligious professions and brand him as a public hypo crite. If the christian ministry and the laity of the different churches approve the present conduct of Rev. Doyle, then I must conclude that preach ers as a class are simply those who have "stolen the of heaven to serve the devil in." If the peo:ftle desire to send him to Harrisburg next win te: to help to frame laws commensurate with their interests, as he alleges on the stump, why don't he remain in the pulpit and let the people do what he says they desire and will do ? Why is he constant ly publicly proclaiming in their ears what be af firms they have already determined to do ? By thus doing, he has either lied, or else he has no confidence in what the people have told him in re gard to their desires and purposes in this respect. But, Mr. Editor, I have confidence in the integri ty of the christain community—l have confidence in the christian ministry as a class—l have confi dence in the morals of the church as a distinct or ganization—and I have confidence in the triumph of truth. I believe justice vindicates itself, though slow in action. I believe the honest, intelligent, christian portion of the people of Huntingdon County, of all churches, will, at the proper time, teach the Rev. Doyle a lesson which will be of immense benefit to him daring subsequent life. They will teach him that ho cannot disgrace the pulpit and yet accomplish his nefarious purposes —they will teach him the difference between a political demagogue and a minister called to preach the gospel—and thus by their action, they will prove that they do not approve of Mr. Doyle's conduct in his unworthy effort to gain a seat in the Legislature. The sth day of November next will be a sad day to him, because I believe he has be come infatuated with the idea that he will be elected. So much so, that egotism seems to have swallowed the whole man, body and breeches. If the signs of the times indicate any thing, there will be a majority on that day of at least one thousand votes against him. I hereby call the at tention of the Rev. Doyle to this statement and ask him to mark the prediction. Oct. 7, 1573. FRANKLIN. SHADE GAP, Sept., 26th, 1678. MR. NASH—Dcar Sir:—Rev. Doyle made a great Greenback speech in our town last night. It was new to us to bear a minister of the gospel ar guing politics, but after bearing the man we are rather inclined to think that he is better suited to the stump than to the pulpit, not that we at all consider him an able political speaker, for we do think his arguments are the weakest we have ever heard from any sane wan, but we wish the reader to understand that so far as his religion is con cerned the pulpit isinot the place for him. We prove thief act by Doyle's own argument, "the tree is known by its fruits." It is said when Mr. Doyle got the nomination for the Legislature by the Greenback party he knew nothing about the finances, and that he wen', to John Dougherty, of Mt. Union, and told him his situation, that he had been nominated by the Greenback party for the Legislature and that his nomination was likely to be endorsed by the Dem ocratic party, and, that he would have to talk on the finances and was entirely ignorant on this sub ject, and requested Mr. Dougherty to tell him all he knew about the finances. Mr. Dougherty com plied with his request and told bite all he knew on the money question, and perhaps a little more. Now if this report is correct, and we have no rea son to doubt it, Doyle has depended upon his memory, perhaps in place of writing down what IMr. Dougherty told him and has forgotten half of it and is filling up with his own ideas. This moy account for the miserable, snallow arguments be offers to the people un the finances. We have a much higher view of Mr. Dougherty's intelligence than to suppose that he would ever give a man such instructions on the finances as Mr. Doyle is dealing out to the Greenbackers. We think when Doyle gets his next lesson from Dougherty on the finances he had better write it down. This might be an advantage to both parties. We would like, Mr. Nash, to give you some ideas of Mr. Doyle's speech, but really we do not know where to begin. It was long enough and loud enough, but failed entirely in point and common sense. It might justly be compared to the little end of nothing whittled to a point. He frequently mingles the bible with his arguments. Wo think this is "steal ing the livery of Heaven to serve the devil in." Ile professes, however, to be very conscientious in his Greenback work. He said he would be very sorry to engage in anything that would interfere with his preaching the gospel on the Sabbath day. Ile really seems to think that it is a political ne cessity that he should renounce the gospel. make shipwreck of his faith to become a politician, all that be may save our country from ruin, and we believe he has egotism enough to believe that if the people are toolish enough to send him to Har risburg that he will be able to correct all the mis takes, that he supposes have been made there for years. There is ' ne thing that we feel like giving Mr. Doyle credit with, and that is if he is "going to that other place," (and it would seem from his present conduct that ho is,) we have not heard of him trying to get any other ministers of the gos pel to go with him, or perhaps he may think that one divine like him—so full of grace and truth—will be sullicierA to straighten up all the frauds and corruptions of our government for years, and that it will only be necessary for one minister of the gospel to ignore his profession in order to accom plish this great work. Mr. Doyle said that if they would elect him and Foust to the Legislature, they would ask the people what they wanted done at Harrisburg. This was what the "hounds" in pow er would not do. I thought this was rather a hard name for a minister of the gospel to call his own church members, because they differed with him in politics. Mr. Doyle denounced the government for almost every thing it had done with the excep tion of paying him a pension. He had no com plaints to make in this direction. Mr. Foust tried to make a speech but failed en tirely. I think if they purpose using bin as a public speaker during this campaign they had bet ter get Mr. Dougherty to teach him that beautiful little speech that we find in some of our readers!: "You scaree expect ono of my age, To speak in public on the stage." I think this speech would have a very good ef fect at a greenback meeting as none of them would know but what it was his own composition, then you know he might add a few lizes of greenbacks to it, or Mr. Dougherty might do this for him. I have just heard that the Greenback party have nominated John Dougherty, esq., of Mt. Union for Congress. I think he is a very suitable candidate fur the Greenback party, and will make a good match for Doyle, and if they shouid both be elect ed our chances for a railroad to the moon may be good at no distant day, provided, however, that they are not too much opposed to land grants to railroad corporations.
