If it were possible for a man to do all Lis own work he would be saved a heap of annoy ance. A cold, biting wind prevailed on Saturday, ret dering overcoats absolutely necessary to comfort. Smoke the "Electric," manufactured ex pressly for the JOURNAL Store, where it can only be had. Tommy Montgomery,the Fifth street clothier, was the first man in town to put up his awn ing this Spring. Lieut. Crawford, of the Monitor, is numer ously congratulated on account of that new baby of his'n. A monster and attractive sign has been flung to the breeze in front of the New York Clothing Hall. Col. Dorris has the handsomest yard a garden in town. Its rustic summer houses are cosy looking. The "jottings" from Shirley were mislaid last week, and did not turn up until too late for publication. Our friend W. W. Gary has won his fight with the Commissioner of Patents, anl will get all he asked for. Horse bills a specialty at the JOURNAL Job Rooms. We have the handsomest assortment of "cuts" in the State. John Lingafelt, postmaSter at Hollidaysburg, died at his residence, in that town, on Friday night last, aged 61 years. "Vestibule guards" is the name applied to young men who hang about church doors ogling females as they pass. Three dwelling houses were destroyed by fire in the village of Gaysport, adjoining Hol lidaysburg, on Sunday night last. Our friend, John Shirley, esq., of Cove Sta tion, bas lately purchased a valuable farm in the fertile region of Morrison's Cove. The contractors have obligated themselves to have the new school building ready for oc cupancy by the early part of September. Sammy March runs two clothing stores, but as be has any amount of push about him, he will see that they are properly managed. The next meeting of the Huntingdon Pres bytery will he held at Orbisionia, in this county, on the second Tuesday in June next. Fine cutlery has just been added to the varied assortment of articles to be found at the JOURNAL Store. Ladies' knives a specialty. A number of our people were in attendance at the Good Templar's Convention, held in Tyrone on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. Representatives Doyle and Foust perambu lated our streets on Friday last, looking as though their duties at Harrisburg agreed with them. According to the Tyrone Herald Hon Alex. Port visited that thriving village last week. A cleverer man never perambulated her boul evards. Rev. George G. Craft was installed as pastor of the Baptist church, in this place, on Thurs day evening of last week, with interesting ceremonies. A number of additional shelves were put up in Montgomery's store room this Spring to bold the immense piles of clothing purchased by that gentleman. We were pleased to intertwine digits with our clever friend, Elwood Conrad, esq., of Montgomery county, who will tarry in our town for some time. Rev. McNlnrray has already been angling for trout in the streams of Clearfield county, and succeeded in taking a respectable string of the "speckled beauties." Last week we mailed a score of bills to de linquents, but up to this time very few of them have responded. They will get a summons from a Justice next thing. Book satchels, straps, superior black wri ting ink, books of all kinds, and a full line of school stationery for sale at the JOURNAL Store, as cheap as the cheapest. We invite attention to the new advertise ment of March Bros., en the fourth page of to-day's issue. They have marked their goods , down to rock-bottom prices. An alarm of fire on Friday evening was •c -+casioned by sparks setting fire to the roof of a porch in the rear of the Jackson House. It was extinguished without damage. 1 A Bellefonte merchant occupies an entire page of the Repubbcan with an advertisement of his store. We'll bet he's a fair dealer and commands a large trade, and so he should. We advise our country readers to scan care fully the advertising columns of the JOURNAL before making their Spring purchases. None but fair dealers use our columns. Buy from them. i. "The Electric" a new cigar manufactured I expressly for the JOURNAL trade, is the best in the market, and lovers of the weed are loud in its praise. Everybody smokes it, and they love it. A pair of villainous looking tramps have been rendezvouing in the vicinity of the "cut," on the opposite side of the river, for several days past. They are dirty, ragged and impudent. Ground was broken on Monday morning for the new school house, and a large force of workmen ate engaged in excavating the cel lar. The work of removing the old building has also commenced. The mutilated remains of Samuel Stem, an aged citizen of Juniata county, were found lying alongside of the P. R. R. track in Har risburg, on the night of the 10th inst. The deceased was 72 years Get your letter heads, noteheads, bill heads, cards, envelopes, etc., etc., printed at the JOIRNYL Job Rooms. The largest stock in the county, and prices do•vn to the bottom figure. Send along your orders. We had the pleasure of making the ac quaintance of James Stuffier, esq., sheriff of Blair county, on Friday last. He was "doing" our town under the guidance of Sheriff Irvin. We found him a clever gentleman. The sight was a pitiable one to see the offi cers of a town of four thousand inhabitants importuning impecunious printers to publish the annual statement of said borough without charge. It was a cheeky request. An unusual number of drunken persons were visible upon our streets on Sunday, and the query presents itself, where did they get the liquor? If the temperance people would make the effort they could find out. The Jackson township squibs do not find a place in the JOURNAL for the reason that the author failed to give us his name. We pay no attention to anonymous communications no matter how meritorious they may be. Another child of Mr. Crowley, near Mt. Union, was buried in the Catholic cemetery, in this place on Friday last. This makes the fourth member of that family who has died of consumption within the past six mOnths. Geo. Green, who has been employed as a brakeman on the coal freights between this place and Harrisburg fiur a decade, was so un fortunate as to have two of his fingers badly mashed, the other day, while coupling cars. The band that rocks the cradle, is the hand that moves the earth. Dr. Bulls Baby Syrup is the best remedy for all complaints children are subject to, such as Dysentery, Diarrhoea, Summer Complaint, Wind Colic, etc. Price 25 cents. Master Jimmie Jacobs, youngest son of our friend, A. A. Jacobs, was presented with a handsome pocket dictionary, by his teacher, Miss Emma J. Isenberg, at the close of the schools, on Friday last, for his proficiency in spelling. New Haven Register: When the mild spring days come, if they ever should, look out for the showy thirty-five dollar baby carriage pushed along the sidewalk by a bedraggled looking mother who hasn't had a square meal all winter. We are in receipt of a copy of the Brown ville, (Ind.) Inquirer, containing an able and interesting article on "Children and their Education," from the pen of Mrs. M. A. Seitz, nee Grim, a native of our town and for a long time a teacher in our public schools. Our townsman and esteemed friend, Rev. A. Nelson Ilollifield, reported the proceedings of the Presbytery for the Altoona Tribune during its late session in that city. The reports were very full and interesting, and required con siderable time and labor to get them up. Col. W. 11. Maynard, of Johnstown, was visible upon our streets on Monday. During his stay he visited the JOURNAL sanctum and received our autograph to a receipt for sub scription to "the handsomest and best paper in the county." May his tribe increase. A. B. Flood has flung his banner to the breeze on Allegheny street. between Fourth and Fifth streets, where lie is prepa'red to sup• ply all demands made upon him for bread, cakes, and everything else in the bakery line. See advertisement in another column. We are indebted to our friend, H. Greenberg, for a sample of the unleavened bread eaten by the Jewish people during the continuance of the Passover, which lasts for eight days. It was in the shape of a cracker, nine inches in diameter, of virgin whiteness, and rather toothsome. We are pleased to learn that the estimable wife of our old friend and patron, Col. R. A. M'Murtrie, of Hollidaysburg, who has been lying dangerously ill at the St. Cloud, is Philadelphia, for several weeks past, has re covered sufficiently to permit her removal to her home. The prospects for Altoona being selected as the place for holding the coming State fair are most encouraging. She has the grounds, the hotel accommodations, is centrally located, and we don't see that the management could select a better place. We would vote for Al toona every time. We have been informed that Henry Ward Beecher will lecture in the Penn street Opera House, in this place, on Monday evening, May 5. The world wide fame of Mr. Beecher should be sufficient to pack the ball as full as it usually is on the occasions of free exhibi Lions. More anon. A large barn on the Blair Furnace farm, in Blair county, in the occupancy of Mr. Jacob Forsht, was totally destroyed by fire on Satur day afternoon last, together with live stock, agricultural implements and grain, the whole footing up a loss of $4,000. There was no in surance, and the cause of the fire is a mystery. The University- Singers, of New Orleans, a double quartette—colored—of Jubilee Singers genuine and true, direct from New Orleans and Nashville, will give one of their entertain ments in the M. E. Church, at Alexandria, on Monday night, April 21, 1879, commencing at 8 o'clock, for benefit of said church. Admit tance, 25 cents. Williamsport humped its back when Hun tingdon was selected as a site for the Middle Penitentiary, and finally succeeded in having Lycoming county put hack to its old place in the Eastern district. That wine supper didn't catch the commission. In the words of Dick Deadeye, Williamsport was "on the wrong `ack."—Harrisburp Telegraph. A young man named McGonigle, who hailed from Porter township, came to town the other day, filled himself with bad whiskey, and was "spilin 7 " to fight some person. Kidney Gantz, a colored youth, accommodated him, and gave him a severe drubbing. The case will likely go to Court and cost the county a hundred dollars or so. Charge it to. whiskey. An up-town gentleman, who entploys several hands, makes it a rule to dock them for any time they lose in the moaning, and if they fail to make it up the amount is deducted from their wages at the end of the week. This is nothing more than fair ; employees have no right to expect full time when they are from a qu,arter to three-quarters of an hour late commencing work. Rev. F. B. Riddle, formerly of the Methodist Episcopal Church of your city, is now the duly installed pastor of the Methodist Episco pal Church of this place. Mr. Riddle is one of the ablest men of the Central Pennsylvania Conference, and we have no doubt will be fully appreciated by our Tyrone people. As a preacher he certainly has few superiors.— Tyrone correspondence Altoona Tribune. The proprietors of the Altoona rolling mill, a few days ago, locked their doors against those of their employees who were members of the "union," and refused to permit them to resume work unless they withdrew from that organization. This is the proper way to treat men who will band together for the purpose of interfering with the private business of individuals companies or corporations. These .'unions" are a curse to the country. Prof. Zuck, of the Hunti,ngdon Normal School, informs us that that institution is in a most flourishing condition, every room in the large and handsome building being occupied. It will be necessary, in the near future, to add another building as large as the present one. Prof. Zuck has labored hard since he came amongst us and we are pleased to note that his efforts are being crowned with success. The Fifth street dial of the town clock, which has been broken and useless for a month of Sundays, is hunkedori again, having been repaired by T. Wilday Black and Benny Africl. And just here it might be well enough to say that the broken dial was put together with Van Stan's Stratena Cement, purchased at the JOURNAL Store, the best article of the kind ever manufactured. It will mend everything, we believe, but the broken promises of‘'dead- beat" newspaper subscribers. Some unhung scoundrel made an unsuccess ful attempt to fire the public school building. On Saturday last, while the contractors were looking through the building, they found on the attic, a large bunch of splinters which had been fired and placed in a position to set fire to the roof of the building, but as good luck would have it they did not burn sufficiently to accomplish the damnable work intended. There is no way of finding out whether the attempt to fire the building is of recent date or not. The Northern Cambria News is the name of a new paper just started at Carrolltown, Cana brie county, by T. S. Williams. The new can didate for public favor is a twenty-four col umn sheet, of Democratic proclivities ; and is printed on the "patent outside" plan, at $l,OO a year. The paper presents a very creditable appearance, and we wish its publisher may make a fortune out of it, but by the time he runs it six months be will come to the con elusion that he has not got much of a bonanza after all. Subscribers who desire the address of their paper changed from one post office to another, should be careful to give the name of the office at which the paper was last received. We received a postal card the other day from a subscriber requesting us to change the ad dress of his paper, but he failed to name the old office, and the result was we had to run over our list of upwards of 1800 names before we could find his name. By attending to this matter patrons can save publishers consider able time and trouble, Mr. Simpson, of Huntingdor., has erected a handsome and substantial fence of bronze iron around Mr. George - A. McCormick's lot in Fairview cemetery. The chief feature of Mr. B's. work is its firmness, and its resistance to action of frost and time.—Altoona Tribune. This speaks well for the work done by Mr. Simpson when people from a distance will purchase it in preference to that manufactured at home. This gentlen;lau has the reputation of turning out the handsomest and best work in this section of the State. Huntingdon has another w%nt. This time it is a company which shall furnish $lOO,OOO to go into the business of manufacturing tele graph machines after a fashion designed by Mr. W. W. Gary, the inventor of the new mag netic motor.—Cumbria Freeman. Well, we've got it. Inside of three days time the stock was all taken, and to-day could be sold at a premium of S3O. Huntingdon has gut out of the slough of old fogyism, and. when her people make up their minds to do a thing they do it forthwith. Vide the Normal School, the new penitentiary, the new school building, and last and best of all the Gary Magnetic Machine IVorks. Ain't we "boomin"? ' John Gantz, an old colored man who re sided in West Huntingdon, died suddenly on Friday night last, as is supposed, of heart disease. He had worked all day of Friday, came home in the evening, ate his supper and retired to bed without complaining. Some time during the night he got up out of bed and went down stairs for a drink of water, and as he staved considerable time his wife followed to see what detained him. When she got down stairs be was about starting to return, and motioned her to precede him, which she did. When be reached his bed room he threw himself upon the bed and ex claimed, "Oh ! Lord, what is this ?" and im mediately expired. The deceased was about 69 years of age, S and leaves a wife and several children and step-children to mourn his sud den death. We spent a very pleasant hour, on Friday afternoon, at the entertainment given by the scholars of Prof. White, Miss Emma J. Isen berg, and Miss Mary McCoy. The exercises were varied by declamations, dialogues, sing ing, etc., and were of a highly interesting character, reflecting credit both upon teachers and pupils. A great number of visitors were present, and all were well pleased. A similar entertainment was given the same afternoon by the scholars under charge of Mr. Evans, which we hear spoken of in the highest terms. Prof. Geo. W. Sanderson's school gave a pub lic entertainment in the Town Hall on Satur day evening, which was largely attended, the spacious room being packed almost to suffo cation. The exercises were of the most in teresting character, reflecting credit on all concerned. ART OF ADVERTISING.—This is float ing about on the sea of newspaperdom, and as it is applicable to this neighborhood we give it place in the local columns of the JOURNAL : "Business men and other advertisers squall der largo sums of money in advertising in ephmeral publications with limited circula tions and in out of the-way methods. They pass by respectable newspapers with bona fide circulations to patronize cheap concerns, because they are cheap. AcLion like this is about as wise as that of the ostrich when he hides his head iu the sand, leaving all the rest of his body exposed, and imagines himself safe. So with the advertiser when he puts his card in one of these "catch-penny or work at-any-price-and-board-themselves publ i e a tions," he imagines that he has done a great thing, and complacently sits down to await customers that never come, or to be captured in his business by some one whose enterprise and business tact enables him to discern the true method of advertising by using legitimate newspapers. The Cincinnati Gazette thinks it one of the queer things in business this propensity of people to seek irregular medi ums for advertising. It is unaccountable the prices some men pay for sticking their adver tisements in irregular places. Especially is this so when compared with their unwiliing ness to pay anything for advertising in regular channels. Men will pay large sums for insert ing their business cards in a section of a hotel, bar room, street car, railway station, or in a hotel register, or an almanac, or guide book, or annual of one sort or another. The by ways they seek, and those who successfully solicit them are innumerable. Likewise they will spend large sums for printing special circulars, and in postage to send them. In all this they ignore the most essential condi tion in advertising, namely, that it has the character and effect from the medim through which it is given to the reader. Advertise ments thrust into irregular and unbusiness places impress the general mind that the concern is of a similar character. On the other side an advertisement in a general news paper of first-class standing carries the im pression that the advertiser has a standing in his own community which he is not afraid to show to his neighbors, and that he does not shrink from competition with the best of them. These are the different impressions that are made on all minds by advertising in a journal of high character and circulation among the reputable class, and when seen in by places and irregular or low channels. Every one finds this in his own feelings, if he would but think on the subject. If any one is going to a place to buy, whether lie be a trader or buy ieg for his own use, and has . to seek dealers through advertisements, where will he look for them ? The registers, almanacs, theatre bill frames, in railway stations, occasional advertising sheet or circular? On the con trary, he looks to the most reputable newspa per of the place, and he thinks the advertising in these gives an assurance of the good stand ing of the advertiser and his business enter prise, and of the sufficiency of his stock." SWINDLERS,—THEIR OPERATIONS IN THIS AND OTHER COIINTIES.-With gentle spring come the swindlers and several of them have been operating in this and other coun ties. One of them has adopted the following plan : lie left a plow at a farmer's, with the ver bal consent to use the plow and if not liked to return it. He also left a printed advertise ment of its merits. The farmer, looking over it, found a notice in due form, stating that when trial is made of the plow, the agent must be notified within two days and given a chance to regulate the working of it. Many farmers will never see this notice, but will take the advertisement heedlessly and then through failure to notify in two days will be compelled to keep the plow, inasmuch as the agent can be qualified that the farmer was duly notified and the farmer cannot deny re ceiving it. . . . Two men have been operating in Berks county, professing to sell coal oil at attrac tive rates. The strangers took the signatures of all farmers desiring oil, at the same time giving them a trial quart. Each farmer was required to sign a blank agreement to take so much oil per month at such a price, provi ding it proved satisfactory. These blank agree ments were in a book specially prepared for the business. The leaves were double, the lower portion protruding about a half-inch, the sheet or page in the book being doubled down from the top, and the edge so nicely parted as to escape the closest scrutiny. The agreement was written on the upper surface and the signature attached below. All the swindlers would have to do would be to re move the upper half and then they would have a blank sheet of paper with the tarmer's name upon which they would write any sort of a promisory note. A number of these fradulent notes, amounting to several hundred dollars, were thus pat into circula tion. The men were not coal oil dealers. We find the above in the Lancaster Express, and publish it in order that our farmer friends may be prepared for these scoundrels in case they should put in an appearance in the rural districts of our county. The country is over run with villains of this class who resort to every imaginable device to defraud the un suspecting. The safest plan to pursue is to deal with no man who is unknown to you. Whenever a stranger comes to you and wants you to sign your name to a paper of any kind, you can rest assured that he wants to fleec e you, and the best and wisest thing for you t o do is to kick him out of your house and dog him off your premises. HEADSTONES FOR SOLDIERS' GRAVES. It is probably generally remembered that some years ago—in 1873—Congress passed a law providing for the erection of durable head stones over the graves of soldiers of the reg ular and volunteer forces of the United States whose remains are interred in the National Military Cemeteries. This law has been car ried out, and the graves of the Nation's dead in these cemeteries are now permanently marked. At the instance of the War Depart ment, Congress has recently authorized the erection of similar headstones over the graves of the Union soldiers who are buried in pri vate and village cemeteries. This will be done as soon as the necessary arrangements can be made. In the meantime Quartermaster General, at Washington, will at once proceed to collect the necessary information as to where these headstones are required. 411 persons having any knowledge of the burial places of soldiers in private cemeteries whose graves are not marked, are requested to communicate the fact to the Quartermaster General, and give regiment, company, and date of death of deceased, if known. Similar information is desired from parties in charge of Bach cemeteries. Qf course it is not intended to furnish head stones for graves over which monuments have already been erected by rfd4tives or friends of the deceased. FARMERS, don't forget that Sam'l. Mc- Culloch sells the best articles of FORKS, SHOVELS, RAKES and all kinds of FARM ING TOOLS lower than any other man in town. Hay rope and Pulleys a specialty. 4-4 t. MR. GARY'S DISCOVERY.—For several weeks past articles have appeared in the cor respondents' department of the Scientific Anyr ican, from gentlemen who seem to take delight in writing uron a subject which they do sot unde stand, or understanding, have not [he honesty to write that which is true. These articles have been read by a gentleman in Boston, and in the Post of that city, of the 10th inst., he publishes the following com munication iti answer to the articles in ques tion : To one who knows the facts in the case, the stir made by some Fcientific persons and semi scientific newspapers in regard to the discovery of a hitherto unknown law in magnetism and the invention of a new magnetic motor, based on that law, is as amusing as it is surprising. By the size of the bricks thrown and the number of hard names called one would infer that it is feared in certain quarters that there is danger of Mr. Gary's turning the world upside down with his small magnet and three-penny nail ; and no doubt that modest and well disposed gentleman is astonished to find himself suddenly regarded as a dangerous character against whom society has need to be protected by violent end abusive newspaper attacks. If, as one of his detractors avers, the most that Mr. Gary has done is to assume that 'two and two make five, or even twenty," it does seem as if the efforts put forth against him, in support of the old theory that two and two mak. four, are greater than the danger of the situation calls for. It ought not to be regarded as a very extraor dinary thing that a man of superior natural en dowments, although not highly educated in the schools, devoting himself a dozen years to experi meeting in a particular department of natural science, should find out something new, and tin predjudicen persons, not affected by the conceit which a professional vocation sometimes inspires in not very large minds, find it difficult to see how the recognition of a discovery thus made leads anybody to "deep ice all training," or in any way injures the cause of education. At any rate, the facts of nature will continue to be facts whether discovered in a way to suit our preferences or otherwise, and the true votaries of science will continue to welcome them wherever and however found. It is true that it would be more in accordance with the idea many people have of the "fitness of things" if Mr. Gary's discovery of the "neutral line" and "change of polarity" had been made by some one of the thirteen very distinguished savants one of his critics names as the persons who should have made such a discovery if the discovery were possible. But to hinder the pleas ant gratification of our sense of propriety in this regard there comes up the troublesome fact ',had these gentlemen did not make the discovery and that Mr. Gary did, and the world will have to accept it, as it has many others, from more humble hands. It does seem. too, as if such an important thing, if a reality, ought to have been inentiiined in the "extensive literature" of the subject, to which another writer refers in discussing Mr. Gary's claims, and considering how much easier it would have made the patient experimenter's task, it is too bad that he could mot find "in the books" what he was seeking fat But by a remarkable perversity in scientific literature new things do not get into the books till somebody discovers them, and nature does not always yield up her secrets to those most learned in what has already been ascertained, but sometimes to those most persistent in searching for that which remains to be discovered. It is to be regretted that any writer in discussing Mr. Gary's claims should have seen fit to use ex pressions tending to excite the prejudices of the schools against the learned. Ile is one of the warmest friends of the cause of education, and most heartily rejoices in the good fortune of those who have enjoyed its highest advantages. He asks credit for nothing which he cannot demon strate. lie is one of the most devoted friends of science, for his discovery is only an advance step in scientific achievement, and he naturally I >oke to scientific men for sympathy in his work, end when without adequately investigating the facts he . resents, some mistaken pereous of this class turn against him in contempt, he justly feels that they are not injuring him merely, but, much more, themselves and the cause of science. He, however, receives all this sort of treatment calmly, as he can afford to, knowing as he does that he is right, that his fame and his fortune are assured, and that he already has the friendship and the favor of scores of the genuine friends of science, there being not one of those most competent to judge of it, who have fully investigated his discovery, but admits its re tlity and the justice of his claims The idea that to admit the genuineness of Mr. Gary's discovery encourages "contempt for ali training" is as full of absurdity as it is of conceit. Nobody is ever hurt by the truth, come where and how it may, except those who are entrenched in error. The discovery of a law of nature as the result of ten years' incessant etuoy at experiment ing inspires contempt fur nothing but superficiality and pretence. When hundreds of clear-headed men, having witnessed its complete demonstration, know for a certainty that an announced discovery is genuine, while learned men occupying high positions denounce it as an absurdity and a fraud, it is not the fortunate d ?cover who is exciting contempt for "training," but those in whom the fruits of training are so poorly illustrated. Agassiz is reported to have said that whenever a new and startling fact in science is brought to light people fait say, "It is not true." then "It contrary to religion," and, lastly, thet ''Every body knew• it before." Substituting the word "science" for •'religion," this does not inaptly ex press the experieece Mr. Gary is now having. Fer the credit of the schools, one can but wish that this sort of reception fur new truth wigh always be left to the ignorant. Of Mr. Gary's critics, those who have denounced his claims the most positively are those who have spoken from a distance or who have really known little or nothing of the facts in question. They claim to know that his discovery cannot he genuine. But how do they snow it? They know it as the English Board of Admiralty knew that Ericsson's propeller could not be successfully applied to nevi- Wien, and so lost for their country the credit of first adopting this great improvement—as the United States Naval Commission knew that a vessel of the monitor pattern could not be kept afloat, and so at first rejected what one hundred days afterward saved our navy—and as the Col lege of Physicians in Philadelphia knew that the discovery of ether as an antethetio was a humbug. These eminent men knew these things were not possible, or thought they knew it, merely because they sere not informed in regard to them. But it is not safe even for the most learned ei assume that what they already know covers the whole field of achievement in any department of science. The time has gone by, if it ever existed, when learned assumption either meets the demands of science or answers the purpose of earnest men, and all who expect to keep in the race of the world's progress will take good care not to deny and de nounce where they have not fully investigated That sort of wisdom which has assumed to know more about Mr: Gary's disoovery than he knows himself, or than hundreds of others know who have seen his fasts demonstrated, must soon look in a glass where it will see itself reflected as folly, for Mr. Gary has the facts in the case, and it has never yet been shown that even the loftiest as sumption can stand long against the facts and the laws of nature. B. M'CONNELLSTOWN NOTES Moving time is about over. Farmers are done sowing oats. M'Connellstown has two schools in success ful operation this summer. Messrs. William Pouch and Frank Cullier recently arrived from Fayette county. Mr. David Magahan left this place on Tues day of last week fur Altoona. tie thinks of visiting Johnstown ere he returns. The wheat fields in this vicinity have donned theiremerald suit,and evince their willingness to give to their owners a bountiful harvest. Mrs. Wm. Kyper is lying quite ill with in flammation of the stomach. Dr. A. B. Bruin baugh of Huntingdon is her attending physi clan. The select school, taught by 0. P. Moser, is progressing finely. Forty students were en rolled the first week of school, and others are to enter soon. Mr. Cunningham Martin has taken up his abode in the dwelling house formerly occupied by Mr. Bailey. We gladly welcome him to his home in our pleasant little village. Mr. Marshal Ward, who lately arrived home from bis school in Mifflin county, has gone to Millersville Normal College where he expects to spend the following summer. Success at tend him. Rev. Montgomery, formerly pastor of the Methodist church at this place, has again re turned, and will take charge of this circuit during the coming year. We hope that his labors among us cay be as successful as his calling is important. A Sabbath day in M'Connellstown : At half past nine o'clock A. M., the children all assemble in the Reformed church for Sabbath School services. This school is quite large, consisting of about ona hundred and fifty or more active members, and is superintended by Mr. Joseph Eiseuburg, esq. The church is supplied with a good organ, and much interest is manifested in the way of supplying the school with choice Sabbath School music. This delights the little urchins who swarm together in vast numbers to receive advice and instruction. After an hour and a half is spent in this manner they go from the fie formed to the Methodist church to attend the noon services. At 2 o'clock P. )1., the children and others interested in the work meet in the M. E. church, and there they spend another hour in reciting their various tasks. At night we again meet alternately in the two churches, where we are all entertained by interesting talks from our ministers.

COURT PROCEEDINGS.—A great throng. a multitude of petty criminal cases, rowdyism and drunkenness on our streets, now and then a trial that is full of funny incidents, and more rarely a case of villainy and wrong which calls to Mel) heaven for justice ; this is the neek of the Q'arter Sessions Court. Court was not tailed until 2 o'clock Mon day. The afternoon was almost entirely oc cupied in hearing an unusually large number of motions and petitions by members of the bar, in receiving returns of constables, swear ing in new officers, &c. The regular Quarter Sessiou3 were opened at 5.20, P. 11. 7 with the trial of one Joseph Shingler for fornication and bastardy upon oath of Keziali Webb. The trial was remarkable for the zeal displayed for and against the defendant, and the Judge in charging the jury discussed the law relating to the case with a completeness which is un usual in the trial of this class of misdemean ors. The defendant was convicted. Commonwealth vs. David R. Fleming, was the next case. Fleming is a son of Captain George Fleming, of Alexandria. He was charged with adultery with Carrie E. House holder, a pretty lass of 16, residing at the same piece. The testimony of Carrie was of course the principal evidence against Fleming, and in addition there were adduce& confes sions alleged to have been Made by him to Carrie's grandmother, and others. Mr. Bailey conducted the prosecution and Messrs. Speer and P. M. Lytle the defense. When the old lady was on the stand she testified with posi tive vehemence against Fleming, and was a most dangerous witness for the defense to cope with. Mr. Speer attempted to cross ex amine her. He asked her if she was not anx ious to lave the case compromised—if in part it was not a black-mailing scheme. "Bey ! what did you say V and looked at her inter locutor with an expression of injured inno cence that would have made the fortune of any actress who could have imitated her upon the stage. This was the beginning of a con test which was steel against steel, and it need scarcely be added that the old lady did not leave the stand until she had the last word. The defense, in this case, rested mainly on the theme that this prosecution was institu ted by Carrie's father for the purpose of ex torting black mail from the Flemings, it be ing known that they were likely to receive money from the Penn'a. Canal Co. The de fendant testified that he was innocent. A witness named Keech was put on the stand to break down the testimony of Carrie and her grandmother, and the following dialogue en sued: Q.—What did Carrie's father tell you about indicting Fleming? A.—He told we he pitched his tent, like the Egyptians, on Dr. Charlton's son—he didn't say that exactly, but that's what he did; but there was no child and he heard Flemings were to get some money and then he pitched —he didn't say pitched, but that's what he meant—l don't know what you call it, but there's where he pitched. Q.—Do you know Carrie's grandmother ? A.—Yes. Q —What is her reputation for truth ? A.—Well, from what I can understand she is a mischief-maker, and she is repo.ted in Alexandria for spooks, (roars of laughter). I had to go and watch Dr. 'louts' grave for her. Q.—But what do the people say about her as a woman of veracity ? A.—Well now I can't say anything about that, only what I heard. Q.—Well, that is what 1 am asking? A.—Well, she is an old mischief-maker ever since I was a child ; all the citizens say that, or, (after a pause), et least they ought to I Of course the last reply brought down the house. The jury in this case were oat five hours and returned a verdict of not guilty, but that the defendant pay all the costs. It is said that at first the jury stood ten for conviction and two for acquictal. A number of cases in which boys and men, living below town on the line of the P. R. R., were indicted for stealing coal from the cars, were next disposed of. The court imposed a minimum sentence in these cases, as they were the first of the kind, but gave notice to all who were in the habit of taking coal from the railroad company, that hereafter parties convicted of this kind of larceny will be sent to the o penitentiary. Frank Smithberger, the burglar, who effec ted an entrance into Fisher &Sons office,sotne time ago, pleaded guilty. This young man (who is by the way quite prepossessing In appearance), seems to be a professional cracksman, judging from his language and sang froid. He was sentenced to a fine of $lOO and eight years solitary confinement, at hard labor, in the Western Penitentiary. Andrew Weaver, indicted for stealing a revolver, and for an aggravated assault upon Robert Myton, pleaded guilty, and was sen tenced in all to $4O fine and imprisonment in the penitentiary for four years. David Stull, of Diamond Valley, pleaded guilty to the larceny of meat, and was sen tenced to $5 fine and an imprisonment in the county jail for four months. The lightness of his sentence was owing to his extreme youth, and the statement of the District Attorney, and others, that he had probably been led astray by his companions. Jacob Stull and Isaac Fields, for the same offense was sentenced to fines of $2O and im prisonment in the penitentiary for two years each. Daniel Shawley, indicted for participation in the same offense, was tried. The defense in his case was that he is weak-minded, and although not quite irresponsible, yet not of sufficient mental capacity to be held to the same degree of accountability in regard to the reception ofstolen goods, as persons of ordinary discretion and judgment. The legal distinction drawn in this case was interesting to criminal lawyers. Usually a defense of insanity, al though resulting in acquittal, also results in the confinement of the defendant in a lunatic asylum, The verdict is not rendered as we close our report. Commonwealth TS David Banks Indictment assault and battery, with intent to commit rape upon Eliza Chilcoat. This defendant was found guilty, and was sentenced to pay p fine of $lOO and undergo an imprisonment of two years in the Western Penitentiary. The criminal list is larger than usual, and it is probable, from the fact that all but one or two of the civil cases down for trial this week are ready for trial, that Court will last all week.

AIICT IT ROBBERY ?—A few days ago we received a small box from Springfield, 111., containing three dozen bottles of ink, and weighing nineteen and one-half pounds, the express charge on which was one dollar and fifty cell!. We look upon this charge as out rageous, and little better than downright rob bery. It is a kind of legal stealing from which there seems to be no releif. The box in ques tion could almost be carried in your overcoat pocket, and the sum paid by us was sufficient, at fair and honest rates, to have carried it to the North Pole. It was shipped by the "Amer jean Express" and reach"d us through the "Adams Express," after having been on the road twelve days. If possible there should be laws passed to protect shippers frem being fleeced by these soulless companies. We don't know who is at the head of the American Ex press Company, but whoever he may be, if he sanctions such bold thievery, he would make a fit accomplice for the James brothers, the noted robbers of the Northwest.
