Would it pay to run a 'bus to the reservoir once a day? We haven't yet. seen one of the double-bar reled postal cards. The Knights of Pythias in this State now number over 28,000. The prettiest girl in Huntingdon don't in dulge in slang phrases. The Hebrews of Altoona are about to or oganize a synagogue iu that city. Bodkin wants to know where the liquor comes from for the Sunday drunks. It is said that every township and borough in York county can boast a brass band. The Blair County Radical has put on part of a new suit, which adds very much to its good looks. Smoke the "Electric," manufactured ex pressly for the Jountim, Store, where it can only be had A fatal case of yellow fever is reported at Cherry Tree, Indiana county. The victim was a Mrs. Duncan. A gentleman named Bigler. in Clearfield county, is said to be erecting the largest tans nery in the State. R. R.

Suloff, formerly of Nlifflintown, who had a "flyer" here at one of our county fairs, died at Philadelphia on Saturday last. The local of the Mifflintown Register is also a judge of good things—vide his appropriation of our local on the death of Christ Spayd. The vacancy in the Penitentiary Commis sion. occasioned by the death of George I. Young, will not be filled for several weeks. Fine cutlery has just been added to the varied assortment of articles to be found at the JOURNAL Store. Ladies' knives a specialty. Young man, your gill may have a very pretty foot, but remember that it can't make half as deep an impression on fou as the old roan's. Huntingdon county is noted for her rough country roads, while by a little labor, at the right time, they could be made smooth and good. The best assortment of Blank Books ever brought to Huntingdon has just been received at the JOURNAL Store. Good goods at low prices. Mrs. Stephens has opened• a pay school in the Academy building, which will continue *until within two weeks of the opening of the public schools. It sounds funny to hear of an old lady kiss ing her favorite cow, but then there are lots .of girls who are dizzy enough to let a calf kiss them.—Ez. There has been a change in the time of the departure of the maii train on the H. & B. T. R. R. It noteleaves at 6:40 P. 31. 7 instead of 7:40 as heretofore. By advertisement H. H. Herr, gives notice that he has purchased the presses, types and fixtures of the Altoona Democratic Call, and that they belong to bim. Geo. W. Friedley informs us that about the first of October be will open a meat market immediately below the post office, in a room to be built for that purpose. A couple of crippled soldiers, with an organ on wheels, perambulated our streets on Mon day, and, as they should, roped in a goodly quantity of the root of all evil. A new invoice of the La Tigre Segars just received at JOUNRAL Store. This is the best 5c segar in Huntingdon county, or in the State. And don't you forget it. Altoona's tonsorial artists indulged in a picnic on Thursday afternoon of last week, and a social hop in the evening. A few colored folks from our town were present. The moon was full on Sunday evening, but fair Luna behaved herself more becomingly than the youtig girls who got full the last alight of the Newton camp meeting. Copying pencils is a late novelty just added to the large stock of useful and ornamental articles to be found at the JOURNAL store ; they are "as Dandy as snuff in a rag." According to the Almanac Summer ended on Sunday last, but judging from the swelter ing beat since then the clerk of the weather cannot certainly be cognizant of the fact. "The Electric" a new cigar manufactured expressly for the JOURNAL trade, is the best Iti the market, and lovers of the weed are loud in its praise. Everybody smokes it, and they love it. Every business man who has examined the "Climax Binder" says that it is just the neatest thing ever offered the public. To be had only at the JouRNAL Job Rooms. Call and see it. The farmers of Walker township should call upon Jack M'Cixban and purchase the right to use the patent post-and-rail fence,' which can be put up without a mortised post or the driving of a nail. • During the trial of Peter Herdic, in Belle fonte, last week, Hon. Wm. B. Mann, of Phil ale phis, one of his counsel, was carried into Iffe court room on pillows, being too feeble to walk in consequence of a sudden illness. D. G. Owens. Druggist, Altoona, Pa., writes : "Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup has a wonderful rep utation, the demand for it is really astonish ing. Mothers will have no other. It is destined to supercede all other Soothing Sy rups. Tramps now evade the law by traveling as umbrella menders, and the more aristocratic of them peddle pins, shoe-strings, etc. Keep your eyes on these fellows should they present themselves to you in either of the above dis guises. The bicycle, a) a iambs of travel, is becom ing quite populat in the eastern part of the State. It is clairbed for it that a rider, can make one hundred miles a day without the least fatigue. As yet Huntingdon is without a bicycle. Our young friends, Harry and Elmer Brown, sons of J. A. and S. T. Brown, esqs., left home on Tuesday raorninz for Lafayette Col lege, Easton, Pa., where the former will pursue a. Scientific course and the latter that of Civil Engineering. Nervousness and indigestion. These sad afflictions so destructive to business and pleasure, arise from a morbid condition of the body, which is relieved by an occasional dose of Dr. Bull's D. , .ltimore ('ills. Try them, they will do you good. The favor of our Reverend friend, of Hare's Valley, is of such a nature that prnludes its appearance in our columns. We would not be justified in publishing an article con aining such pointed sharges as are made in lie one referred to. Our venerable friend, Elijah Gorsuclt, of Oneida township, paid his annual visit to the JOURNAL sanctum, on Tuesday morning, and renewed his subscription for about the twentieth time, to "the handsomest and best paper in the county." The festival held in the Castilian Garden, four nights last week, under the auspices of the Good Templars, was well conducted, and in view of the fact that this town has had a surfeit of festivals this season, the financial success of the enterprise was satisfactoiy. Jacob Halley, esq., one of lluntiugdon county's prospective Directors of the Poor, was in town on Friday. The 'Squire is a very clever gentleman and makes friends wherever lie goes. Tinder his supervision the affairs of the Alms House will be carefully guarded. Joseph R. Carmog e esq., who spent several weeks on the frontier, arrived at home on Saturday evening, highly delighted with his trip. He has a slight attack of the "Western fever," but we are inclined to think that he will not give a bird in the hand for one in the bush. The great event of the season will be the printers' picnic, at Cresson, on Saturday. Six hundred and seventy-two excursion tickets have been issued to the members of the craft for the use of themselves and their families. As a matter of course they will have a jolly good time. A Harrisburg "moonshiner" named Kohler, who has been manufacturing whisky from "lager beer stumps," was arrested on Friday and held to bail to answer the charge. Ile purchased the refused slops from the saloons in that city and distilled them into a prime article of whisky. We are informed that the people of Shade Gap have at last awoke to the necessity of doing something if they want a railroad, and to that end they' have succeeded in raising over $BOO. We give this rumor as we heard it, and do not, of course, vouch for the truth of it..-L-Orbisonia Leader. Prof. Guss, of Huntingdon, made a flying visit to Bloomfield last Friday. He was look ing up the history of the newspapers pub lished in this county, for his address, to be read at the printers' picnic at Cresson, on the 6th of September. It will be a very interest ing history.—People's Advocate. Pistol shots in the public streets, several rough-and-tumble fights, and a score or more of drunks disturbed the quiet of Altoona on Saturday night. With a little improvement in that line Altoona will soon compare with Huntingdon's Saturday nights' saturnalia of drunkenness and blackguardism. Large numbers of our citizens daily visit the penitentiary grounds to view the modus operandi of handling the large boulders that are being put in the foundation walls. By the aid of the derricks in use there stone of several tons weight can be handled as readily a; those not larger than your fist. Some unprincipled villain, one night last week, stripped the peach tree in the garden of Mrs. Mary Dopp, a poor widow woman of our town, who is compelled to toil, early and late, over a wash-tub, for a livelihood. The person who did it is mean enough to steal the grave clothes from off his dead mother. Col. John Cummins, a prominent citizen of Jackson township, died on Monday, the 25th ult. Col. Cummins was at one time a member of the board of county commissioners, and was well and favorably known throughout the county. A friend informs us that his funeral was one of the largest ever witnessed in that section. There seems to be a blight on the pear trees, in this vicinity, this season, which in numerous cases has killed the trees, while in others trees loaded down with fruit have been stripped of their leaves. We have interrogated several pomologists in regard to the cause of this blight, but not one of them has been able to explain it. 'Squire Richardson informs us that the chestnut trees in Lincoln township are com ing out in blossom for the second time this season. The trees are full of chestnut burl and the blossoms have made their appearance on the same branches to which the burs are growing. This is the first instance of the kind that has ever come under his 'notice. There was a heavy run fur extra copies of the JOURNAL last week, and although we pridted over a hundred.extras the supply did not begin to meet the demand. We were sorry to disappoint our friends, but the safest way to guard against a repetition of this in the future is for everybody to send $2.00 and receive "the handsomest and best paper in the county" for a year. The Mirror is the name of a small paper just started at Mifflintown, by Master Harry E. Bonsai'. It is independent, and will be pub lished during the campaign for 20 cents. The number before us is filled with a variety of readable matter, both original and selected, and presents quite a creditable appearance typographically. We hope its young editor may be amply remunerated tor his trouble and labor. Mr. Geo. B. Brumbaugh. of Marklesburg, was dangerously hurt, a few days ago, by being struck by the limb of a tree while en gaged in felling timber to be used for tele graph poles. Several teeth were knocked out of his lower left jaw, and his back and shoulder severely bruised. For several days his life was despaired of, but we are pleased to learn that be is convalescing and on a fair way to recovery. Fragments of clothing and brims of straw bats strewn about the street on Sunday morn ing were evidences that the b'hoys were out on a regular jamboree on Saturday night. Is Council powerless to stop these exhibitions of blackguardism which are enacted upon the recurrenee of each Saturday night? Can't an officer be appointed who will arrest these marauders and bring them to justice ? Try it, gentlemen. The newspaper sponge is a bore to be found around every printing office. As soon as he hears the press in motion he darts into the press room, picks up a paper, reads it a little while, stuffs it into his pocket and is off to his home, where the family inform themselves of the news of the day at the expense of the editor. We have some of them in this town who watch the JOURNAL press as closely as a cat watches a rat. George W. Patterson, of Warriorsmark township, whom our readers will remember as the young man who had his back broken, more than a year ago, by falling off a tree while out on a coon hunting expedition, died from his injuries on the 16th inst. He was buried the following day in the cemetery at Warriorsmark, and his funeral is said to have been the largest ever seen in that place. The deceased was 27 years of age. The chap who presides over the local col umns of the Ashland Advocate does his edit ing with a pair of scissors, and is so busy that he does not find time to attach, credit to any of the articles stolen. By the theft of several articles from the JOURNAL he succeeded in getting up quite a readable paper last week. He even stole our article on our county ticket, changing the phraseology of it to suit the Yazoo Democracy of that region. Jacob A. Harold, a former Johnstown man, has been arrested and held to bail to answer the charge, in the United States Court, of at tempting to defraud the Government out of a pension on fradulent papers. The Govern ment just now is being defrauded out of im mense sums by persons who have no more right to pensions than the man in the moon. It would pay the Pension Bureau to send an agent over the country to look u&these frauds. A stalk of corn, growing in the "old fair field," on : the farm of Jack M'Cahan, has reached the height of eighteen feet, with pros pects of reaching a still greater altitude. The stalk has two mammoth ears growing upon it, the first of which is eight feet from the ground. There are %umberless other tall stalks in the field, but the one mentioned above is the "boss" corn stalk of this region. If any of our farmer readers can beat it let us hear from you. Coroner Dr. A. B. Brumbaugh on Sunday morning held an inquest on the body of an infant which had been found buried in the cemetery, in tl?is place, under suspicious cir cumstances. The child was found by the sexton, on Saturday afternoon, but a few inches under ground, and as be had no knowl edge of its burial be reported the matter to the Coroner. The fact came out before the inquest that the child had been dead born, and had been placed where found by its father. Brother McPike, of the Cambria Freeman, was in Altoona, on Saturday last, on business in connection with the printers' pic-nic, and while in that city bad the misfortune to lose his pocket book. Being the editor of a country newspaper as a matter of course he had no money in his wallet, but it contained a rail road pass and some valuable papers, which will be of value to uo one save the owner. We hope the finder will return it to him so that when he does get some money—if ever—he will have some place to hide it from the vul gar gaze of the crowd who will no doubt be anxious to look upon the curious spectacle of a country editor with money. A fellow down in Perry county, who lives out in the mountain districts, and who don't take the papers, was in Newport, one day last week, and heard for the first time the news of the killing of Miller by Albright. After hear ing IL he told about a strange man having visited his house on several occasions begging something to eat, and from the description given him of Albright he came to the conclu sion that his strange visitor was none -other than Albright. Upon this information a posse of ten men repaired to this man's mountain home where they propose to wait in the hopes that the stranger may again call. These visits were after the dead body was found in Girty's Cave. About 11 o'clock on Monday forenoon three large rings were observed encircling the sun. The rings in color resembled somewhat the hues of•the rainbow, and during their appear ance in the sky, which lasted from 11 A. M. until half-past one P. M., they were witnessed by hundreds of our citizens. The sun ap peared to be the centre of one of them, while the other two crossed the main ring at either side of that luminary. We have never heard of such a phenomenon being seen before in this locality, and it was the theme of conver sation during the remainder of the day. The signal service officer at Pittsburgh says it was caused "by the refraction of the sun's rays in passing through the frozen crystal of ice float ing high up in the atmosphere, which even in the hottest midsummer weather is quite cold at a very moderate altitude. It is generally a sign of rain."' OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS —The corps of Teachers Completed.—Tye School Directors of this borough held a meeting on Monday night last for the purpose of electing a teacher to take charge of School No. 11, and for the fixing of the salaries of the teachers. Quite a num ber of applications were made for the vacant place, and the Directors, after a careful exam ination of the ability of the applicants, came to the conclusion to tender the refusal of the appointment to Prof. A. S. M. Anderson, who holds the responsible position of Professor of English Grammar and Natural Sciences in the Brethren's Normal College, and in case of his non-acceptance then Prof. R. M. M'Neil, late County Superintendent, is to have the appoint ment. The following is the complete list of teachers and the amount paid each per month: • NEW SCHOOL BCILSINC Nu. 1. Miss Maggie Strickler, ‘•Macy M'Coy, 3. " Mertie Shaver 4. " Maggie Miller, " 5. " Estelle Myers, " 6. " Emma McCauley,— " 7. " Belle Kelly, " Mattie M'Divitt, l: 8 " 9. Mr. Wilson Evans, "' 10.

Al. Fleming, 3B 00 " 4. Prof. W. H. Sheeder, COLORED SCUOOL No. 1. Mr. S. C. Peightal, $32 50 It will be seen that Misses Strickler and Campbell each receive $25.00 per month, which is $lO less than the other female teachers. This reduction is made on account of their inexperience as teachers, but after they have taught a month or so, and prove their ability to discharge the duties of their responsible positions, we understand that it is the inten tion of the Directors to increase their salaries up to that of their co-laborers. .THE GRAIN TRADE ON TIM PENNSYL VANIA RAILIIOAD.—The Altoona Tribune says: People who never go into the yards of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, or who are not thrown in contact with railroad men, can form no idea of the extent of the grain freights in charge of the company at the present time. The holding of grain in storage has been en tirely revolutionized within the past few years. Heretofore it has been customary to accumu late enormous quantities of grain in elevators, buildings so constructed as to be necessarily costly in machinery and material, and at the same time unavoidably inflammable because of the combustible character of their internal arrangements. The expense of all Such grain depositories was very great, alike in repeated handling of the grain, the loss therefrom in shrinkage, and cost of insurance. It has been found cheaper to hold grain in cars, and store these at various points along the line of a road, from which they can be moved to market as the stock of grain is needed. Act ing on this all the railroads in this State are now using cars for the storage of grain in transit from the North and West to certain markets. There are nearly, if not quite, 3,000 cars loaded with grain between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, at points along the Penn sylvania railroad, held for shipment as the grain is required fur disposal in the Eastern market. Within a week there have been repeatedly 1,000 cars in the yards of the Pennsylvania railroad in Harrisburg loaded with grain, which are shipped eastward as required, and other cars with like freight added every day. THE COUNTY NEWSPAPER.—It is the best read paper in the world. No other contains news of the marriages and deaths, to say nothing of the divorces and births ; no other relates the accidents happening before the doors of the villagers; no other gives the time for the next ball, picnic or political meeting ; no other discusses the affairs 'of the town and country, the arrival of the new goods on the merchant's counters, or a new hat on the editor's desk. Occasionally defects and errors are overlooked by those who have become attached to it through its perusal for years. They sometimes become dissatisfied with it on account of something which Das slipped into its columns, and may stop taking it; but the absence of the familiar sheet at their homes or offices, for a few weeks, be comes an insupportable privation, and they hasten to it again, and possibly apologize for having it stopped.. No friendship on earth is more constant than that contracted by the reader of a journal which makes an honest and earnest effort to merit its continued sup port. Hence a conscientiously conducted paper becomes a favorite in the family.—Lock haven Journal. A BRAKEMAN SLIGHTLY INJURED.— A brakeman named William Miller, employed on the middle division, and who has his home at Mt. Union, made quite a narrow escape from fatal injury in the yard here while at tempting to make what is called a running coupling of cars. While thus engaged his foot caught fast between the rails at the switches, when he was struck by the car add knocked down alongside the track on which the train was. Having presence of wind he drew his arm away from the passing wheels, but his foot and ankle were caught and se verely squeezed by the wheels extending over the rail and pressing them against the outer rail leading from another track to the switch, fdrtunately breaking no bones. He was con veyed on a stretcher to the office of the com pany's physician, his injuries dressed, and sent home on the Johnstown express.—Al toona Tribune. HOW TO GET SICK —Expose yourself day and night, eat too much without exercise; work too hard without rest; doctor all the time; take all the vile nostrums advertised; and then you will want to know 110 W TO GET WELL, Which is answered in three words—Take Ilop Bitters.

[sept.s-4t. Sunday School Convention EDITOR : We had the pleasure of attend ing a Utiios Sllntiqy School Convention at Zion M. E.Gliurch, in Clay twp , on Thursday, August 28, 1879. Many of the readers of the JonanAL and others of our county papers re quested the writer to transmit au account of the proceeding to the press, and with this ob ject in view we examined the rather lengthy minutes kept by the Secretary, and concluded that rather than attempt to collect an account of proceedings therefrom, we would rewrite it, regretting that in the limited space which this communication must necessarily occupy, we shall not be able to do justice to any of the speakers, but expect merely to indicate the train of thought and expression of the differ ent speakers on the various topics. The convention was called to order at 9.30 a. m., by chairman F. G. Mills; on motion of Eli B. Shore, esq., a permanent organization was effected by the election of lion. R.I. Hun ter, president; Hon. S. P. Wishart, P.H.Bence, esq.; Samuel M'Vitty, esq., S. F. Grissinger and John Edwards, Vice Presidents; John C. Nicholson, Secretary, and Willi:tat Alloway and Geerge Thomas, ushers. In addition to several well-known workers in our county, several were with us from Ful ton . county, as will be•seen by the account of the proceedings of the convention. Music by the choir, "Sunday school Schol ars' Greeting," was followed by an impressive prayer by Rev. J. W. Olewine, invoking the Divine blessing upon the work of the conven tion. An address of welcome was delivered by S. McClain, superintendent of the school, Wi der whose auspices the convention was held. The first topic, 'The Object of Sunday-school Convention.' was opened by T. Jackson Mc- Clain, of Texas, and was ably continued by Rev. J. W. Olewine, Messrs. John Booth, J. Calvin Shore, and lion. S. P. Wishart. The object is to learn best modes of conducting ing Sunday schools; to gain information and inspiration. We meet and compare notes, de vise methods and ascertain wherein we lack efficiency, and are thus enabled to discharge our Christian duties more efficiently than in the past. Discussion of topic closed. Music, "The Half was Never Told." _ 'The Great Object of the Sunday-school" was next taken up, And the discussion opened by Jos. E. Barnett. The Sunday-school is one of the great institutions of the age. It is there that our children are taught and learn their duty to God. Many persons contend that the Sunday schools are productive ofas much harm as good. This is a mistake ; were it riot for the sunday-schools we would be far back so cially and morally, with holthens in heathen lands. ,$25 00 35 00 35 00 John Berkstresser: The first christian church was planted (sic) on the earth eighteen hun• dred years ago. The Sunday school is an auxiliary of the church, causing the youth to know what is required of them by Christ the Redeemer, thus teaching them both religion and morality. A christian's duty is not mere• ly to send his children to Sunday school but to take them there. •• 35 00 35 00 .. 35 00 ... 35 00 ... 33 00. 38 00 P. 11. Bence, esq.: A hundred years ago this topic would have been difficult to answer but now any worker in the cause knows the object, which is "To teach the people of the Life that now is and of that which is to come." Everybody concedes the answer to be 'to teach the way to Heaven.' The Sunday school is more than an auxiliary of the church, it is a part of the church. Rev. Olewine followed in his usual felici tous style, describing two schools of which he had heard; the first being a brag school, in which the superintendent is all agility, life, politeness, and is as dextrous as a French dancing-master. Spending a few minutes on, lesson and routine exercises, this superintend ent takes up a line of march. He has some thing to say to everybody, especiallr to the ladies. Lady No. lis nicely clad; passing to No. 2, he finds her stid better clad, and No. 3 has obtained the unattainable—perfection. The next was the best school in Christendom. They had an organ, a choir and a singing mas ter. Theirs was a grand school, the best in the world. The object ofthese amusing de scriptions Was to show that in the world there is a difference of opinion in regard to the ob ject of the Sunday-school. • Dropping his sar castic stricture of these schools, the speaker gave a lucid and succinct statement of th e object of the Sunday-school, when further discussion of the question wasdispensed P. 11. Bence, esq., then opened the discus sion of 'Methods in Sunday-school Teaching,' calling it the important topic on the pro gramme. Nothing perplexes the minds of teachers more than this. The speaker gave his view on the subject stating that he speaks not from practice but from observation. Fa voring object teaching, Mr. Bence made use of the figure of a heart, cut from a bit of paper, which being nice and clean, represented the human heart in its purity, but disfiguring it with colored crayon, it then represented the heart defiled with sin. His object was by this, first, to get the attention, which he thorough ly did, for all eyes were upon him, and then to impress and fasten upon the mind a spirit ual truth. Rev. Olewine and Mr. B. C. Daw• ney followed, censuring the use of the expres sib!' "half-hearted" christians, contending that it is wrong,,when by motion the discussion closed. Music—*Bless the Lord, oh, my soul.' "The Review of the Lesson by the Superin tendent' was then taken tip and discussed by Rev. J. E. McClay. With thoroughness of thought and ease of expression, Mr. M'Clay showed the importance of reviews, because cf the great benefit to be derived therefrom. The Superintendent should ascertain from time to time the progress made by his school, and he can learn this only by review. It is not what we eat that makes us strong, but what we properly digest. So it is in ow read ing and study. Reviews aid us in properly digesting our metgal pabulum, serving to im press and fix upon our minds the facts of the lessons. Deficiencies and errors of class in struction may also be made up and corrected in the review. 60 00 lion. S. P. Wishart : Review of the lessons are very necessary, yet sadly neglected. A review should be had every Sunday, either by the superintendent, or person appointed by him, to conduct it. Persons improperly taught may be greatly benefited by review, and the superintendent can then see how the teaching has been done. Mr. J. W. Johnson has given much thought to this subject, being an active superintendent himself. He favors quarterly review, but rather doubtfully favors a weekly review by the superintendent, as each teacher can con duct that to a better advantage. Rev. J. W. Olewine is not a superintendent but an ex-superintendent. He regards the review as no small thing to do successfully, and if not well done had better not be done at all. Strike out on a new train of thought connected with the lesson. and thus fasten a truth upon the minds of the school. The time required is from five to ten minutes, but if not done within that time it had better go undone. Use all the lesson "helps" at command such as maps and blackboards. P. H. Bence fully accords with his pastor and others as to the importance of reviews and the manner of conducting them. The su perintendent should review every lesson be fore the whole school, and if error has been taught in class it can be corre'ted in review. Use everything as "helps" that cau be ad vantageously used. Pending the discussion of this topic the hour for adjournment arrived, and the congregation joinea in singing "Nearer My God to Thee." after which the convention adjourned at 12 a. m., to convene at 2 p. m. At 2.30 p. m. the convention was called to order by the President. Music : "Glory to God in the Highest." De votional exercises led by Rev. Bartels of New Grenada. Music : "Why do you wait, dear brother." Discussion being next in order, Mr. B. C. Dawney took up the topic : "The Use of the ('rimer and Spelling book in Sunday school." The use of these works to teach the religion of Christ is altogether out of place. The ob ject of the Sunday school is not to enlighten the intellect, but to impart spiritual knowl edge, that knowledge that maketh wise unto salvation. It is undoubtedly a sin to use these books in Sunday school. P. 11. Bence, esq.: Isn't it better to hear the a b c, the ab, ba, than to hear nothing at all ? We must first see whether we have any thing to tak& the place of primer and speller before banishing them from the Sunday scnool curriculum. If the object be to lead children to Christ then the use of these works is al together wrong. Itaikes' object was to teach the rudiments of an education, but now the great object of the Sunday school is to teach the child of the way of life everlasting. J. Calvin Shore Tho not think it •31 sin to use such books in Sunday school although the object is to lead children to Christ. John Berkstresser : If the Sunday school takes the place of the common school, then the use of these books is right, but if not then it is all wrong. Rev. J. W. Olewine asks Mr. Bence to what extent the primer and speller are used in his school, and at what age he graduates his scholars. Mr. Bence in reply stated that not a primer or spelling book bad been used in his school for the last fifteen years, and that with Mr. llawney he thinks it a sin to use them thus wasting precious time. The Sunday school teacher is called to teach the Scriptures, and ow in the name of common sense can he do so, and use the primer and speller as text Looks ? Discussion closed. Music : "By and by we Ault meet Him." "Denominational integrity is not impaired by the most active co-operation in Sunday school work," was very ably discussed by Rev. Bartels, and was followed by Rev. J. W. Ole wine who, after considerable hovering about and shying at the word "integrity," spoke se riously and pointedly on the question, heartily favoring co-operation, seeming to oppose Union schools where denominational ones can be established. Rev. J. E. Sic Clay endorsing the language of the topic, considers co-operation productive of much good. It removes prejudice and es tablishes unity•in the cause of Christ, causing us to take each other by the hand as co workers in the cause of Christianity. Rev. Bartels : If we can co operate in the Sunday school work would it not be still bet ter and far more glorious to unite in evangel izing and christianizing the world blind to the truth, groping in darkness and lost in s;n ? Would it not be a good thing to drop distinc tion and be co workers in the cause of Christ ? John Berkstresser sought to make a point by the perversion of Rev. Bartels' language, but when fairly caught in the trap himself had set, the venerable ex Californian grace fully 7ielded the point and the discussion went on harmoniously as before, P. H. Bence con. tinning and Rev. J. W. Olewine concluding the discussion. The discussion was happily convincing to the most prejudiced mind that it isthe duty of Christians to unite in the promotion of the cause of Christ through the Sunday school, and it is hoped that much has been done to ward removing the prejudice that is rooted in the minds of many. Music : "My Redeemer Liveth." The next topic, "Unconverted persons as teachers in Sunday school" vas considered by Mr. B. C. Dawney who regards this as the most debatable topic on the programme. The Sun day school is as much an institution of God as any of our churches. God works through human agencies, of which fact we have many instances in both the Old and New Testament. Examining these carefully we find that they were invariably men of pure heart,, Christ choosing only good persons to perform His work. The duty of teaching devolves upon Christians, as they are chargeable in the sight of God with the performance of His work.— Unconverted persons may be teaching doctrine that will sink some one to hell. D. F. Stevens, esq., says although he is not one of the speakers, yet he would ask whether an unconverted person who calls the people together and establishes a Sunday school, commits a sin ? Mr. Dawney thinks that he commits no sin, but it will be "more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah than for' that church. The discus• sion was ably continued by Rev. Bartels, Prof. R. M. McNeil, Eli E. Shore, esq., Rev. J. W. Olewine, D. F. Stevens, esq., and John Berk stresser. Discussion clos.d. Music—" The Old, Old Story." P. H. Bence opened discussion of the topic "A Christian who does not support and en courage Sunday school, fails to discharge his duty," strongly supporting the affirmative. Hon. S. P. Wishart took the same ground asking "Christians are you guilty ?" If so, your conscience should be your accuser, and God shall be your judge. Discussion closed. Music—" Grace, 'tis a Charming Sound." The congregation then joined in singing "0 for a Thousand Tongues to Sing," after which the convention adjourned at 4:45 p. m., to meet at 7:30 p. in. The convention re-assembled at 8:10 p. and in the absence of the president, was call ed to order by Vice Press. P. 11. Bence. Mu sic—" All hail the Truth." Devotion, led by Rev. J. E. McClay, of Three Springs. Music— " Gathering Homeward." "How much Biblical geography should be taught in Sunday school," was opened by Rev. J. E. McClay and concluded by P. H. Bence. esq. The subject is one of minor im portance, yet shoqd not be wholly neglected. Locate the occurrences of the lesson as this tends to making the subject interesting and fixes the fact in the mind. Music—" Sweet rest by and by." "The relation of the Sunday school to the church" was taken up by Prof. R. M. McNeil, who considered the Sunday school a part of the church, bearing the same relation to it as the arm to the body. The mode of Sunday. school teaching to-day corresponds more nearly to Apostolic teaching than does the preaching of to-day. Rev. Bartel, of New Grenada, in a general way agrees with his colleague Prof. R. M. McNeil. The relation is that of a child to the parent, taught by implication in the passage "When Zion prevails she brings forth chil dren." The Sunday school, or rather a part of it, is part of the assembly of God. Men are called from darkness to light before they become part of the church. Sunday schools grew out of necessity, since parents neglect the spiritual instruction of their children, and hence might be denominated a necessary evil. Rev. E. J. McClay objects to the term "evil" as used by the last speaker. It is a rather harsh expression. Sunday schools grew out of necessity, yet they are not an evil, but a remedy for an evil. Discussion closed. 'Mu sic—"Do you hear the Savior calling?" "The Sunday school Literature of the day," was opened by Mr. Frank A. Berkstresser. We shall not mar his excellent production by en deavoring to present a synopsis of it. His ad dress received the undivided attention of the assembled people, and he fearfully condemn ed the sensational stuff circulated under the name of Sunday school books. Were there less of that class of reading which he con demned, and more of that which be favored, our Sunday school Libraries would attain a a much greater circulation. Who will con tend that the works of Bunyan, Milton, Spen cer, Chaucer, Dr. March, or even the Waverly Novels, or works by "Boa" are not far prefer able to the fictitious publications miscalled Sunday school books, which, as Mr. Berk stresser well said, "Are filled with tales that have no prototype in Nature ?" Revs. Bartels and J. E. McClay agreed with Mr. Berkstresser, that there is enough of fact for Sunday school reading without resorting to fiction. Solid reading is always preferable. Discussion closed. Music—" Just a word for Jesus." The query box was opened, and questions answer ed by Revs. Bartels and S. H. McClain. Music —"Wonderful Grace." _ On motion of Eli E. Store, esq., a vote of thanks was tendered the choir for the excel lent musical entertainment. The congregation united in singing the doxology, the benediction was pronounced by Rev. J. E. Meelay, and the convention ad jonrned sine die. The committee on music, Messrs. Harry Houpt, C. H. E. Plummer and Frank G. Mills, were fortunate in securing the services of Mrs. Johnson, of Robertsdale, an accomplish ed musician, who presided at the organ. Sev eral young ladies and gentlemen of the neigh borhood ably assisted her. The proceecUngs were harmonious and the order excellent—the fears of the timid to the contrary nothwithstani:ing—and the conven• tion was a decided success despite both covert and open opposition: The Executive Committee, Frank G. Mills, chairman, John C. Nicholson, secretary, Hon. R. S. Hunter, Eli E. Shore, esq., and Samuel McClain, deserve the thanks of the com munity for the zeal displayed in the discharge of the various duties assigned them in the get up of the convention. Yours, Faithfully, VALE. "A. K's." l'isn STORY —Alexandria will soon become famous for having within ker borders an individual who can discount Tom Pepper in a fair contest at lying, and beat him two to one. His last effort in that line was made one day last week, and in Friday's issue of the Philadelphia Record we find the following : “For some days past Alexandria has been the scene of considerable exeitement, caused by rumors that a fish of mammoth size and of an unknown kind, had been seen basking in the shoals of the Juniata river. The fish was noticed by two boys. At first their story was discredited, but it has since proven to be true. "On Thursdaz last, while Mr. Frank Wilson was passing aloffg the left bank of the river, he noticed an aquatic animal of unusual size, re sembling a fish, swimming in the direction of the more shallow water, and watched until it had turned its side to the sun, fully satisfying himself that it was a fish. _ _ “Two days afterward Mr. Potter succeeded in shooting the fish, stunning it so that it was caught and temporarily placed in a brewery tank, tilled with water, where it still lives. Many persons visit it daily. Its length is five feet ten and one-half inch, and it is fifty-one inches around the thickest part of the body. The weight has not yet been ascertained, but it is supposed to weigh from 125 to 150 pounds. It is not known how this monster ever found his way to the blue Juniata, but it is thought to have been put in when quite small at the time this stream was first supplied with bass, salmon, trout, etc., sonic ten years ago.

SCHOOL ENTERTAIN M ENT.—The. enter tainment giv:n by the Merounellstown Nor mal Select School, on the evening of August 28, was well attended and the exercises elicit ed a good degree of praise. The evening be ing clear, and "Luna" at her fullest extent, contributed somewhat to the success of the meeting. The exercises were held in the Re formed church—a handsome and commodious brick building. The speaker's stand and table were tastefully decorated with wild flowers, vines, spruce and house-plants. The per formers were twelve in number, seated in front of the pulpit, in the form of ,a with the tastefully decorated table of flowers in the centre. Miss Ella Ward was organist for the evening. The programme opened with an anthem—"flow Lovely is Zion,"—followed with prayer by Rev. A. G. Dole. The school and choir then sung a "Greeting Choru-s." "Autumn Days," by Miss Jennie Simpson, was the first and one of the fine renditions of the evening. President Lincoln's Gettysburg Speech was pronounced by F. 11. Megithan in his natural, vehement and eloquent style. Music by choir and school—" The Village Bell." A recitation—" The Vanity of Pride"—by Miss Lizzie M. Isenberg, a select oration—"Lafay ette"—by J. F. Moser, a recitation—" The Child's World"—by Gracie Brewster, and all acquitted themselves honorably. Music by choir—" One by One." An essay was read on "Recollections" by Miss Ora Heffner. This production does honor to the head and heart of the author. A recitation—" Over the Riv er"—by Miss Genie M. States, was unani mously conceded to be the finest rendition of the evening. "The Adopted Child," by Miss Kate CoulOr and J. F. Alegaltan, was pathetic, and the performance could scarcely have been improved. "The Poor Old Tramp," sung in quartette, excelled anything in the music line during the exercises. A select oration— " Survivors of Bunker Hill,"—by W. M. Fouch was next in order. "The Pauper's Drive," by Miss Maggie Peightal, can be put for one of the fine renditions. "Life's Baubles," by Clemmie Trout, was a well-timed performance. A poem on "Parting," written for the occa sion, was read by Willie Fouch. Music—" The Pastor's Charge"—by school and choir. The closing address, by Rev. A. G. Dole, was a logical and lengthy address. An anthem— " Blessed is He that Considereth the Poor,"— and the benediction, closed the exercises. The choir, officers of the church, and 'patrons of the school, will please receive our fervent thanks for their encouragement and co-operation. HO ! FOR LEADVILLE !

PEACHES AND low TO USE THEM.— As we are now in the midst of the peach sea son, and the fruit is so plenty and cheap that the moat impecunious can afford to buy it, the following brace of recipes, which were handed us by a lady friend who has tried them, may be of service to the female readers of the JOUR- Peach Preserves.— Pare white freestone peaches, not quite ripe. Split in halves, take out the stones, and throw the peaches in a bucket of water to prevent them from turning dark. Make a syrup of white sugar, using as many pounds of sugar as you have pounds of peaches. When it has boiled thick, put in as many peaches as will corer the bottom of the kettle. Let them boil till nearly done ; then take them out, one by one, in a perforated spoon. Lay them in dishes and set in the sun. When all the peaches have been carried thro' this process, pat back the first dish of peach es in the kettle, taking them out when a pret ty amber color, and so on till all have been boiled twice. Meantime the peach kernels should have been scalded and skinned. Put them in the boiling syrup, which must be kept on the fire till very thick. Put the peaches when cool in glass jars, and pour the syrup over them. In a few days examine, and if the syrup has become thin, boil again. Peach Pickles.—Pare the peaches, stick a cloveoin each, or if preferred, put them in the syrup ; fill an earthen jar with peaches packed; fill up with syrup made of white or brown su gar, and in 4 short time you will have pickles fit to tempt the fastidious taste of the gods. To keep well, seal air tight. Foa ECONOMY'S SAKE.—The County Commissioners of Mcintour advertised in the papers of that county that after a certain date interest on certain 8 per cent. county bonds would cease, and that on that date the bonds would be redeemed. Six months afterwards two citizens of the county presented them selves each with a $l,OOO bond of the issue referred to. When asked if they had not seen the notice that the interest had ceased, they answered no, and subsequently admitted that for economy's sake they took no newspaper. This is how they economized: SAVED, By not taking paper one year, $ 2.00 LOST. By not taking paper, 8 per cent. inter teresi on $l,OOO for six months 40.00 Balance lost, And all fur economy's sake, HUNTINGDON AND BROAD TOP RAIL ROAD—Report of Coal Shipped: TONS For week ending Aug. 23, 1879 6503 Same time last year 7864 Increase fur week Decrease fur week 1363 Total amount shipped to date .

EDITOR you allow we a brief space in "the handsomest and best paper in the county," to say a word about that "at tempted rape (?)" noted in the Monitor and the NCIC3 of last week? The whole thing is a biree, awl will result in entailing a heavy bill of costs on the county, and all through the officiousness of a public officer. The old man charged with this crime, is a simple-minded, harmless colored man, noted for his fondness of children, and this terrible "attempted rape (?)" grew out of his catching hold, in a playful manner, of the little girl in question, as he has done hundreds of other children in the town. The news came to the ears of the chief of police, who, without right or law, went to where the old man was at work, ar rested Win with.ut warrant and without an information against him, threw him into the lockup for an hour cr two, until lie could find the little child, take her before a Justice and have an information made. As I said before, the whole thing is a farce, and I venture the assertion that there are not three persons in the town who view it in any other light. If the Chief had not gone out of his line of duty to 'set up the pins,' this would have resulted like all other gossip, and the county would have been saved the expense of footing a heavy bill of costs. George Pierce, the man charged with this crime (?), whose head is whitened by the frosts of more than sixty win ters, has been a resident of our town fo? over forty years, and this is the first time that 1 have ever ()earl anything brought against his character, which, I dare say, will stand the test equally well with the character of those who seem so anxious to get him into trouble. If "Old Pierce's" skin is black he has friends who will stand by biro and see that justice is done. ANTI-Bcia.nozza. Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia is the most perplexing of all human ailments. Its symptoms are almost infinite in their variety, and the forlorn and despondent victims of the disease often fancy themselves the prey, in turn of every known malady. This is due, in part to the close sympathy which exists► between the stomach and the brain, and in part also to the fact that any disturbance of the digestive function necessarily disorders the liver, the bowels and the nervous system, and affects, to some extent, the quality of the blood. E. P. Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron a sure cure. This is not a new preparation, to be tried and found wanting ; it has been pre scribed daily for many years in the practice of eminent physicians with unparalleled success; it is not expected or intended to cure all the diseases to which the human family is subject, but is warranted to cure Dyspepsia in its most obstinate form. Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron never fails to cure. Symptoms of Dyspepsia are loss of appetite, wind and rising of the food, dryness of the mouth, heartburn, distension of the stomach and bowels, constipation, headache, dizziness, sleeplessness, and low spirits.
