LoCA L AND PERSONAL Brief Mention—Home-made and Stolen, Hazy weather. Clean the streets Stoves are trump. The dust is settled. Democrats look blue. Heal estate is looking up.

Overcoats once more to the fore. Fall goods are still being housed. Don't throw rubbish on the street. House cleaning time in all its glory. Winter apples are being stored away. Lay in your winter store of provisions. Scan our advertisements for bargains. The election is the chief topic of the day. Boys should not play base ball on the streets. All kinds of goods are advancing in price. Loads of corn are being brought to town daily. Saturday was a day of sunshine, clouds and rains Diphtheria is troubling the inmates of the nursery. Mt. Union has got some successful bass fishermen. At the present time we are having a surfeit of shows. The prettiest girl in flunt:ngdon don't use cosmetics. Henry & Co.'s new flouring mill is nearing completion. "Swinging on the gate" is a thing of the past for 1879. "Spectator's" letter appears on the first page, of to-day's issue. The psy-ear of the P. R. R. Company was hereaways last week. T. C. Fisher bagged eight partridges one afternoon last week. Sleigh advertisements are already appear ing in the city papers. The candy makers are preparing "goodies" for the Christmas holidays. You can see snakes by frequent looking through the bottom of a glass. Will Dorris' dog "Shot" is a lively canine and a very intelligent one too. The election tickets have been printed and are now ready for "distribution. A Jetßey firm is canning mosquitoes and selling them as spotted lobsters. We are indebted to Irvin D. Kuntzelnian) esq., for late copies of Illinois papers. Hon. duo. Scott was in town on Saturday attending the funeral of Mr. James Maguire. The heavy boar frost on Monday morning made an end of the remaining "garden truck." The winter schedule will soon go into oper ation on the P. R. R. Ditto, the Broad Top• A new and substantial erossinw has bee , a laid over the P. R. R. at the foot of Fifth street.. Nice fat worms, encased in chestnut shells. are selling at from fire to eight cents per quart Last week was splendid for Itepublicaia coons and roosters. That Ohio wave drove them out. The pumpkin pie is now the rage, but soot will '•step down and out" to give room t the palatable mince pie. The late frosts have put the green tomato in prime order for throwing. So look out fo r the street gamin. Mrs. J. Irvin Steel, of Ashland. Schuylkill county, is visiting relatives in our town, th e place of her nativity. The Bedford county fair was a success, bot h financially and in the number of article s placed on exhibition. Wanted—One hundred pounds of vood , fresh butter. Will pay cash. C. F. York .k Co., Huntingdon, Pa. "Panic" Wilson is driving a lively trade with the patent galvanic battery for which he has accepted au agency. The attendance at our Sunday schools is beginning to grow in numbers again. Christ mas is coming, you know ! Hand-picked apples are selling in this market at forty cents a bushel, and those shaken from the trees at 20 sad 25 cents. The cabbage head of the editor of the Al toona Sun weighs twenty-four pounds. It was the present of a friend. Several of our prominent citizens will 'step into the jury box," next week. For partim lar§, glance at the Jury List. Flour high ; wages low ; the out look for a poor man this winter is very discouraging.— But the Lord will take care of his own. Supervisor Speck, of Walker township, is fixing up the roads under his charge. Other supervisors should imitate his example. The old nursery groundiis still haunted by the small urchin on a Sunday. A few weeks hence the cold weather will keep him housed up. It looks as if Huntingdon has a female shover of the queer, and one of these days sloe will find herself in more trouble than she ex pects. The Mt. Union Times is louctin its praise of the leading business houses and merchants of that corporation. It "did them proud" last week. The show bills of the Humpty Dump'- Pan tomime Troupe are so very attractive, that pedestrians are compelled to stop and gaze on them. A special meeting of the Board of Trade will be held in the Council chamber this (Thursday) evening. A full attendance is desired. The heaviest frost of the season fell on Sunday night, and on ilocday morning the house tops looked as if they were covered with a light snow. Saturday rain came at last, and just enough of it to make the housewife whisper to her lordly master : "Wipe those big feet of yours 1" And ho wiped. If we are to jage from the amount of freight brought to this town by the P. R. R. im mense quantities of goods of different kinds are sold to our people. Mosquitoes were hard at work during the warm nights of the past two weeks, but now as it is growing cooler their musical sound will soon be hushed. The merry laugh of the little folks is heard as they gaze on the picture that tells them 4 , llumpty Dumpty steals a pig." Would that we were a boy again I A social hop came off a short distance in the country, on Friday evening last, which was attended by a number of the lads and lassies of our borough. The defeated cigar makers, of the late base ball match, handed over the cigars to the printers last week. We sampled them and pronounce them first class. .1. Irvin Brotherline, esq., of Hollidaysburg, bas been appointed Register in Bankruptcy for this district, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of his father. Rev. Mr. Craft, pastor of the Baptist church, after an absence of three weeks in the east, will fill his pulpit on Sunday next, morning and evening, at the usual hours. Our boys and girls will soon get down to hard work at their books in the new school building-, as that institution will be opened for their reception Monday a week. Geo. A. Port started on Wednesday to Mor rison's Cove for the purpose of driving bottle twenty-five bead of fine cattle recently pur chase by him,and also of buying as many more. The hills surrounding Huntingdon are clothed in all their Autumn glory,and painters, who love the beautiful, can find no better scenery than that which surrounds our town. Our fellow townsman, If. spent a couple of weeks on a tour of ',ion through portions, of Kansas, ha , 110TIle not vvry Cuurably im;tres=e•l region. \lr.

The old reservoir in Croy le 1• ;C:1- br!n. county, has been pnreh:ised l‘y the, West ern Game and Fish Associaliin or I'll tf.burLrh, with a view to convert it into fl summer resort. Prof. Love, assisted by Mr. and Mrs. Arthur, will give one of their popular entertainments in Penn Street Hall, on Mondly evenin7, 27th inst. Tickets at 'lead's drug - store and Stew art & Flenner's hardware store. Lew Simmons, the negro minstrel, says that Ilunting,don has more policemen to the square inch than any other town in theiTnited States. There must have been some attempted dead heading when he showed here last week. The finishing touches are being put on our new school building—the best one in the State. with two or three exceptions. Our teachers awl pupils, as well as our citizens, are proud of it, as they have a right to be. The burning of leaves still contintr?s, which may be sanctioned as right, but how would you feel to be awakened at midnight with an alarm of fire and find your property in flamm all from permitting children to play with fire ? From D. G. Owens, Druggist, Altoona, Pa. "Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup has a wonderful rep utation, the decand for it. is really nston;sh ing. Mothers will have no oilier. It is des tined to supercede all other Soothing SyrupF,. That rumoredlo premium for the hand - somest girl in Mifflin county was a canard. There are no ten women in Mifflin or any other county who would agree upon any one of their sex being the handsomest. Never, no never. A wedding took place in the county jail on Thursday night, but we did not learn the names of the high contracting parties. Squire Murray officiated, and the ceremony was wit nessed by District Attorney Orlady and sev eral other persons. The sound of the hatchet and saw is beard once more within the walls of the new Baptist church. Carpenters have been busy at work during the past ten days, and it is to be hoped that such will be the fact until the completion of the structure. Our friend, L. E.Eclwards, e=el , r,f Cassv i trod our boulevards on Monday la, t. lie in forms us that a Aeara stave factory has beau erected ol the land of our townsman, Maj. 11.. B. l'etriken, near that town, which will give employment to several hands. W. H. Harper, of Jackson township, has raised in eleven years from one and one half acres, (the same piece of ground) seventeen hundred and eighty-three bushels of corn ears. This season he has a new kind, which grew from two to six fully-developed ears on each stalk. The Bedforl Inguirer of last week - goes for the managers of the Bedford Co. Agricultural Society for having their poster printing done in Philadelphia, and gives them timely warn ing that if the like occurs again, that they can go to the same 'print-shop' for their free puff ing-. Right ! In last week's issue we stated that the clothes-line of our tonsorial friend, Col. Bob Allen, had been despoiled of the week's wash by some sneak thief, but a friend had gathered them in for a joke and returned them next morning, much to the gratification of the Allen household. William Bowman, a printer, and employed for a long time on the Bedford Inquirer, died of consumption, on Friday a week ago, in that staid old town, and we find no notice of his demise in that journal of last week, all of which is quite queer, as "Billy" was one of the stand-bys of that institution. J. Q. A. Haddaway, esq., of "Episcopal Methodist," Baltimore, Md.. writes : "With much pleasure I testify to the good effects of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup in my family. Have used it in many cases, and in each instance the result was entire!y satisfactory. Price 25 cents a bottle. Charles E. West, the young man killed at Warrior Ridge station, a few week, I , gO. while in the discharge of his duties as brakeman, a notice of which appeared in the JOURNAL at the time, was a member of the Employees Mu tual Aid Society of the Middle Division, and his parents will receive $475 from the socioy. Oar townsman, Mr. Wm. Africa, grew a pumpkin vine in his garden this season from which he gathered ten pumpkins, the largest of which measured seventy-two inches in cir cumference, and weighed ninety-seven pounds. Five others of the lot were but a trifle less than the largest. So far as heard from this is the "boss" pumpkin. • Our old friend, M. F. Campbell, esq., of Mapleton, who is now almost seventy-nine years of age, walked from his home, to this place, on Saturday morning last, to attend the funeral of his friend, James Maguire, esq. Our old friend is enjoying excellent health, and is as active as many a man at thirty. May he be spared many years to come. Our townsman, Samuel A. Steel,on his way home from his steam saw mill, on Saturday evening last, went off the road into the woods for the purpose of shootin g a few squirrels for his Sunday breakfast, but he bad not gone far before beard turkeys in the distance, and "calling," he coaxed a twelve-pound gobbler within shooting range, which he killed. A card writer was engaged in writing visit ing cards at the post office, on Monday. As we can print them as neatly and cheaper we ask you to give us a call. In this connection, we might state that several persons who owe us for card printing gave the stranger the money they owed us. A black list is in pre paration at this establishment. "And don't you forget it !" Mr. J. A. J. Postlewaite, a prominent citizen of Altoona, and for a number of years a resi dent of Mt. Union, in this county, where he held the positions of Justice of the Peace and foreman on that division of the Pennsylvania canal, died in that city on Sunday afternoon. The deceased was married to a daughter of our esteemed and aged friend, Capt. Jno. Gay ton, of Mapleton. A rumor is current that a Mifflin street woman attempted to shuffle off this mortal coil by a dose of "cold pizeu," a f.tw nights ago, but the dose was too heavy and she threw it up before it bad time to do its work. An in• dictmeut for attempted self-murder would be in order now, and the officers will be- derelict in their duties if they fail to have the case legally investigated. In another column of to day's JOURNAL Jac k McCaban gives notice to trespassers that they bad better "look a leedle out." Ile says that he is forced to do this in order to protect him self from those persons who plunder over his premises without leave or license, some of them going so far as to haul cords of chopped wood away. A little dcse of the law will stop all this kind of thing. Prof. D. Emmert, who occupies the chair of Drawing and Painting in the Bretbrens' Nor mal College, of this place, took his departure this week for Philadelphia, where he proposes to take a course in the Academy of Fine Arts in that city. Prof. Emmert has few superiors as an artist, but he goes to this school of rational reputation that he may still . improve his already acknowledged ability. Thirty two track hands of the P. R. IL company were worked all day Sunday on that strip of road known as the "Narrows," be• tween the Huntingdon dam and the Warrior Ridge water station. They were engaged iu dressing up the track preparatory to the fall inspection, which takes place, we believe, this week. As the work was unnecessary they should be arrested and fined for violating the Sunday law. Three funerals on one day in our town is a very rare occurrence, but such was the fact oil Saturday last. In the forenoon, Mr. James Maguire, of Mapleton, was buried from the residence of his son, J. M. Maguire, esq., while in the afternoon the remains of Mrs. James Gantz and Harry Free were consigned to their last resting place. The forper's death was sudden, the second of consumption, and the last of diphtheria. Our friend Waring, the able stenographer for the courts of this Judicial district, has been appointed to a similar position by the District Court of Denver,Colorado,but whether lie will accept or not we have not been ad vised. In case of a vacancy occurring by the resignation of Mr. Waring, we respectfully suggest the selection of our fellow townsman, It. M'lJiVitt, esq., to fill it. No one more competent can be found. They say, those who were favored with "comps." to the Simmons k, napkins' minstrel show on Thursday night, that the performance was good, whilst those who had to spend the "filthy lucre" to gain au admission, at least a goodly number of them, that it was strongly tainted with per-Simmons, and wished them- i l:.t.'r nion.y t 'Home 7 g-i(),1 rt te4l)'n ~ !i,u _c Cyr !- ut tit,' greatest itiveatiot,s ,tr ilu ft' at CrO 11)1i1; ilVy Vi• A' 1111 al :'1.4.17,- 1 , .! l ti 1:0.1.1 Their It :111.711 :It CrOSSlllft unry eater (• 1111 iirtiie ornan's Mis,iimary ;-;ucie:y, Held at the Methodist Chard!, on eveniag, was lamely attended, :mil those present sera to be highly pleased with the programme :is given.

The nut coal has been let to Henry & Co.,at a confidential price, which issaid to he extremely low, and the run of mine coal to B. Green & Co., at $1.65 per ton. The hard coal goes to the West Hun tinziou School, whilst the soft coal will he used in the furnaces in the new building. The cigar makers and printers will again eroc3s bats on the sante grounds where the last. game was played, to-morrow (Saturday) af ternoon, to which they invite their uncle, their aunts and their consins, e=i►eci:►ily the female portion of them, to witness their dex terity in the handling of the ball and hat. For our side of the funeral we propose to lay our opponents so deep in their graves that no resurrection horn can ever reach them in the base ball world to conic—in fact, we intend giving them a "scorcher." So look out for fu u. John Denier's Humpty Dumpty Pantomime Troupe, which shows in Molars' Hall, this Fri thy evening, October 24th, is extensively billed in our town, with large, showy and at tractive poster's, and as it is pronounced by the entire press of the eastern cities as a first class and delightful entertainment., we bespeak for the management a rousing house. If yoit want to "laugh and grow fat." go and see the comical "Ilumpty Dinnpty - and his attendantg in all their haps and mishaps. And don't for. get to ',Fin! , the little ones. Admission at the popular prices, 25, 35 and 50 cents. In this year, to see a dog skimming through. the street in adt auce of an old fruit can, is ~vid ence enough to convince the most skeptics'. Republican that Greenbackism is a fraud, s. delusion and a snare and ought not to be trusted with any part of our State Govern • went. But you can trust the members of this party in one thing, and that is when they tie an old fruit can to a dog's tail they do it ef fectually. But seriously, the spectacle wit nessed on Monday afternoon, on Fifth street, is a disgrace to the community and the agent for the protection of animals should make ex amples of those persons who do these things I hruugh pure devilishness. KEROSENE FOR DIPHTIIERIA.—Just at this time many communities are being scourg• ed with diphtheria, and children are dying in large numbers. Our town is not free from this terrible disease, and any remedy to stay its progress should be made known. With this end in view, we give place to the follow ing recipe, which we find in one of our east ern exchanges, and trust that it may prove of great %%due to any of the readers of the JOURNAL whose families may be afflicted with this much-dreaded disease: "There is a family here by the name of Light, a miller, who moved here from Roches ter this season. Mrs. Light said to some of the neighbors that previous to moving here she had an attack of diphtheria, and cured herself by the use of kerosene oil as a gargle, also swallowed some; but the remedy was so simple that our citizens did not think any thing of it until five of Jelly's children were taken down with the diphtheria. Their throats became swollen and caukered terribly. Mm Jelly sent after her ueighbor,and Mrs. Mil lie! te pronon seed it diphtheria iu a very . din. j .er,,us firm. Mrs., Jelly sail she would u-c MN. Ligl.C,z remedy—kerosene vc her children as a garg , e, 3.iz'o had the The ehil re,,ver,4 1 in it few d;ays u" -e on; On ihe Ireut. AziWiter by the nitate of Lusia, railroad trackma , ter, had three of his children taken down with diphtheria, and. cured them with kerosene oil. Wm. Emery had lour children taken dowgave kero. sene oil, and t hey recovere rt Gillette was taken with it, and c imself with kerosene oil also. John Reynoid, of Inzrit ham, had a daughter and niece cured by 'ker osene oil after they were given up for death by the doctor. What is most astonishing is that not a single" case where they used kero sene oil proved fatal. The remedy is simple and certainly cheap, and always at hand in all families throughout the laud'. Also, Gil lette had three children taken with the same disease very bad, and were cured with kero sene." The proposed remedy is so simple that a practical test should be made under the direction of physicians,and if it has merit the information cannot be too widely spread. T:li~iifY AN OLD RELIC.—We find the follow ing in a late copy of the Cambria. Freeman, published at Ebensburg : About the year 1800 the Anderson family brought a loom with them from Shaver's Creek, Huntingdon county, which is the most ancient weaving apparatus within the limits of Cambria county. This old loom had been in use some twenty years before its advent into these parts, having been handed down as an heir-loom in the family for upwards of a hundred years. Its timbers are still staunch and sound and in good enough condition to stand service for a hundred years or more to come. The old frame is now worked by Mrs. Andrew Burgeon, who is not ashamed to do what so many good people have done before her. Grandmother Anderson worked the loom, during her day, and after her Mrs. Bnrgoon, the mother of Andrew Burgoon ; and now in the grandson's family the ancient loom still does good work and keeps alive the ancient memories. The old shuttle of this loom whittled from lanrel-wood, has a thumb worn hollow, formed by the constant use of a hundred years. Now, it is no small accom plishment to be able to card, spin and weave from the sheep to the finished cloth—warping, drawing-in and rigging already to start,; still many very humble people, who think nothing of their accomplishments, can do all this with ease and dexterity. The piano takes the place of the loom now a days, but it is not well for all to be in the band and none in the ranks. The music of the lathe is just as sweet to the heart of industry as the heavenly' symphony front the chords of music is to the ear of the votary of the muses. lIOUTZDALE EJEC PMENT CASE —Set Cling the Title to over Six hundred Acres of Valuable Land.—The case of E. J. Pruner et al. vs. George M. Brisbin et al., in the Court of Common Pleas of Centre county, began Monday week and ended Saturday at 11 P. M., the jury returning at that time, having been out seven hours. It was an ejectment for 644 acres of land in Clearfield county, now covered by the borough of Houtzdale and its surround ing collieries. its value is a half million dollars. A change of venue brought the suit to Centre from Clearfield, where the declaration MIS filed. The same case has been tried three times, first in Clearfield, with a verdict for plaintiffs, which the court set aside, and upon the second trial a verdict was found for defendants. Before it was recorded, however, the plaintiffs asked leave to take a non suit. This was refused, and the verdict was taken and recorded. Subsequently the court set the verdict aside and entered a non-suit nunc pro tune. The title of Pruner et al. was transferred to S. C. Smith, a Jerseyraan, who brought ejectment into the United States Circuit Court in 1867, and again verdict and judgment were given for defendants. Pruner et al. then obtained reconveyance from the Smith heirs and brought the present suit.— The plaintiffs' case was conducted by Hon. George A. Jenks, cf Jefferson county, and General Beaver, and the defendants' by Senator Wallace and Hon. C. T. Alexander. After an impartial charge by Judge Uri is the jury again found for defendants. Litigation is ended if verdict stands and title is settled. LISTEN TO THIS—The unbiased opinion of some of the most intelligent medical men iu this country and Europe, support the state ment that Kidney-Wort is the greatest dis covery yet, for curing Kidney and liver trou bles, piles and constipation. It acts on both Kidneys and bowels at the same time and thus cleanses the whole system. NOTICE.—A. .spcial meeting of the Board of Trade will be held at the Council Chamber, this (Thursday) evening, at 'q o'clock. A full fat mdance is '.rrquested. S. E. HENRY, Chairman.

PAST THIRTY—The story. Past Thirty, is by a new Western author. It is fresh, and smells of the prairies. The description of crossing the plains and the episode of the un derground railroad are interpolated with good effect. The main drift of the story is that the chief passion of liie conies after thirty. Ills• toric lovers from Antony and Cleopatra to tile - iresent have been people past thirty. The cc hole story is interspersed with fine thought. The English is clear and concise. I. be strung passion of Sidney, the maternal love of Margaret, and the beautiful constancy of Worthingtok, as well as the strong Western character of Charley Frost, will, we think, make it one of the successes of the season. The chapter showing how a married woman may retain the love of her husband, shows a keen knowledge of human passion bath in its weakness and its strength. The end of Sid ney's lore is not what we would wish but is probably- trim to life in such natures as hers. The book retails at 50 cents, and may be had of any 800 seller or S.vs - s Agent in the United States. PWEON 31ATCII.—A social pigeon match cattle en', on Saturday afternoon last, between \I.M. McNeal, esq., T. C. Fisher, esq., and lion. H. G. Fisher, all members of the sports men's Club, of this place.

Cirtn on, who spent two or three weeks in New York awl Philadelphia purchasing his full stool;, is now busily engaged in opening, marking and shelving the largest and most ocnip!ete assortment of goods ever brought to Huntingdon county. His stock embraces Dry . Goods, Ladies' ('oats, Dress Trimmings, No tions, Boots, Shoes, Hats, Caps, Groceries, and a full and complete line of all kinds of goods usually fi,und in a first class store. Baring bougA close, for cash, these goods will be sold cheaper than any other house in the county can alf,ird to sell them. His as sertion is no idle boast, but a stern reality; more goods, and better goods, for less money, than any other house in the county. Go and examine goods, hear prices, and be convinced that CARNION'S is the place for bargains. Uct.lU-3t.

"DON'T KNOW HALF THEIR VALUE." —"They cured me of Ague, Biliousness and Kidney Complaint, as recommended. I had a half bottle left which I used for my two little girls, who the doctors and neighbors said could not be cured. I would have lost both of them one night if I had not given them Hop Bitters. They did them so much good I con tinued their use until they were cured. That is why I say you do not know half the value of Hop Bitters, and do not recommend them high enough."—B., Rochester, N. V. See other column. . Oct. 17-21. A WISE DEACON.—"Deacon Wilder, I want you to tell me how you kept yourself and family well the past season, when all the rest of us have been sick so much, and have had the docars visiting us so often." "Bro. TaYfor, the answer is very easy. I used flop Bitters in time ; kept my family well and saved the doctor bills. Three dollars' worth of it kept us well and able to work all the time. I'll warrant it has cost you and the neighbors one or two hundred dollars apiece to keep sick the same time." "Deacon, I'll use your medicine hereafter." Oct. 17-2 t. COLOR You: Bun'Ea.—Farmers that try to sell white butter are all of the opinion that dairying does not pay. If they would use Wells, Richardson & Co.'s Perfected Butter Color, and market their butter in perfect con dition, they would still get good prices, but it will not pay to make any but the best in color and quality. This color is used by all the leading creameries and dairymen, and is sold' by Druggists and merchants. FRI EDEY'S MEAT MARKET.-011r friend, Geo. W. Friedly, one door below the postof lice, is in full blast, and judging from the number of customers on Saturday evening his place is popular with the public. A full assort ment of all kinds of meats constantly on hand, which will be sold very low for cash. Call and be convinced that Friedly sells cheap. 3t SUFFERING WOMAN.—There is but very small proportion of the women of this nation that do not suffer from some of the dis eases for which Kidney-Wort is a specific. When the bowels have become costive, head ache torments, Kidneys out of fix, or piles dis tress, take a phckage, and its wonderful tonic and renovating power will care you and give new life. "Da. SELLERS' COUGH SYRUP," with. out exception, has given satisfaction. Our readers give it a trial. Druggists keep it. Price 25c per bottle. 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. USE DR.

And there I saw it all in print, That I once made a call And got a brand-new suit of clothes At famous Tower Hall. Your customers may 14ugh, perhaps, ( Without a 4loubt they will,) That I wisto , sk the Tower Hall, And thought 'twas Bunker Hill. But then, you know, the saying is That "those who win may laugh;" And in the trumps, I think, I hold The better hand by half. Before I went to Tower Hall, 'alley called me "Ragged Mose;" My hat, and boots, and prospects were As ragged as my clothes. But now, along the Kennebec, You'll find, if you inquire. That he who once was "Ragged Mose," Is Moses Jones, Esquire. I'll tell you how it came about— The luck that did befall— For it was owing to the suit I bought at Tower Ball. The "Sally Ann" arrived in port, Down on the Kennebec; The captain's daughter came on board, And stood upon the deck. Her eyes were like the stars of night, Her checks the rosy morn ; She was a buxom Yankee girl, That had been fed on corn. To Captain Pinkham first she spoke, Sweet as the jewsharp's tones, And then her dark bewitching eyes Were fixed on Moses Jones. She cried, "Oh, father, can it be That this is 'Ragged Mose?' Why, he is for a suitor fit, In such a suit of clothes." The long and short of it is this: I made of her my bride; I have a "Sally Ann" on shore, And one upon the I also have my children's clothes— A pretty urgent call; My oldest boy is Tower Jones, tlis middle name is Hall. And now, along the Kennebec, 'Tie known by one and all, That 'Squire Jones owes all his luck To FAMOUS TOWER HALL. We cordially insile attention to oar large as- sortment of MEN'S, 133Y3' AND CHILDREN'S CLOTHING. GARITEE, MASTEN & ALLEN, tu Err d, CO.) TOWER HALL, nact AND 0.120.
