Corbin, in Clay township, this county, was totally destroyed by fire on the morning of the 31st ult. Ira L. Bare & Co. now publish the Mt. Union Times, but our friend, Dr. McCarthy, continues to de the brain work for the concern. A couple of drunks, who were making things lively on Allegheny street, were given quarters in the lock-up on Saturday night. Old Boreas made things "boom" in this bailiwick on Monday; it was the first heavy blew of the season, and the air was biting cold. Loud prayers won't save a man who cheats the printer out of several years subscription ; it is just as bad as any other kind of stealing.

David White who, for many years, was a •severe sufferer from a nervous affliction, died at the residence of his brother, in West Hun tingdon, on Thursday of last week. The gamin annoyed our citizens by throw ing corn against their windows and hammer ing their doors with cabbage stocks on Hol low'een. The young scamps enjoyed it hugely. Prompt action. It regulates the Bowels, cures Diarrhcea, Dysentery and Wind Colic ; •in fact Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup acts promptly and effectually in all cases. Price 25 cents a Rev.

Rise host of the Farmers' Hotel, W. S. Salim's, on Saturday last purchased the late .resilience of Owen Boate, dec'd.,on the corner of Third and Mifflin streets, for the sum of $1,350. A rare bargain. Frank P. Tierney, eeq., of Altoona, when on ltis way home, on Friday night, fell from the steps of the Twelfth street bridge and sus tained injuries which rendered him uncon scious for several hours. A number of our exchanges have started out on their annual thanksgiving turkey beg ging expedition. If you want a turkey buy it, or get some of your "dead head" sub scribers to steal one for you. Richard Kerr, the Altoona pedestrian, who was pitted against Teufel for a ten-hour go ats-you-please tramp in the near future, has gone to England to get possession of a $30,000 fortune left him by a deceased relative. A semi-annual dividend of 24. per cent. was declared by the Directors of the P. R. R. Com pany at their meeting in Philadelphia on Saturday. If there were fewer palace cars and less snobbery the dividend would be larger. - Some of our exchanges state that "diph tberia is raging epidemic" in our town. Such is not the case. There have not been over three or four cases within that many months, and at this time our town is entirely free from the disease. Landlord Leister proposes to get his water supply from the canal, and for this purpose leas bad pipes laid from his hotel to the canal, a►nd is now making arrangements for putting in an engine to force the water to all parts of the house. One of Mrs. Eckel's boarders, in Smithfield, "skipped" on Monday, and before leaving stole about $3O from a bureau drawer.

Hammaker, who figured in the Al bright-Miller killing, under instructions from Judge Junkin was ignored by the Grand Jury in the Perry county Courts, last week, and John A. Albright, the prosecutor, mulcted in the costs. L. S. Geissinger, esq., who has been on a jaunt towards sundown, taking in Leadville in his rambles, returned home on Tuesday evening, just half an hour too late to get in his vote. We have not had an opportunity to interview our friend, and are therefore unable to give any particulars. On Sunday night, the 23d ult., some human fiend fired a - lot of lumber belonging to Min ima, Holt & Love, near Morrisdale Mines, in Clearfield county, and destroyed about tour million feet. It was insured for forty thous 4nd dollars, but this sum will uot begin to pay them _for their 'loss. Geo. Lang, formerly of McConnellstown, well known in this community, has got him self into trouble, in Williamsburg, Blair county, where be was carrying on the sad dlery business, for selling liquor without li cense. Be was arrested at the instance of Frank W. Stewart, of this borough. The Hollidaysburg Register has entered on its forty-fourth volume, and like old wine it improves with age. Our old friend Over gets tip quite a readable paper, and the Republi cans oftnr daughter Blair should give him a liberal support. We wish brother Over and his paper years of continued prosperity. We are in receipt of the Blairsville. Inde pendent, a new candidate for public favor just issued at Blairsville, Indiana county, by Jno. C. Layton and James A.

Freight conductor John F. Krouse, of Al toona, while bringing his train east, on Wed nesday afternoon, was struck by a bridge and knocked off the train, at Graziersville, two miles west of Tyrone, sustaining injuries front which he died a few hours afterwards. The deceased leaves a large family to mourn his sudden taking off. We are informed that the heirs of B. Thomas have sold Matilda Furnace to Mr. James Burt, of Philadelphia, for $G5.000. The property bad cost Mr. Thomas $92,000, but property has greatly depreciated in value since then. If true, we hope Mr. Burt will lose no time in starting up the furnace.—Mt. Union Timu. The article of "Well Wisher" came duly to hand, but as we find nothing in it to interest the general reader we must decline to publish it. The same subject was noticed at length in last week's JOURNAL, and the non-appear ance of the article in question need not in any way interfere with the pleasures incident to such occasions. A countryman, who was gloriously befud dled, in attempting to cross the railroad bridge spanning Fishers' mill race, near Mil lers' taurery, lost his balance and fell a dis tance of about fifteen feet to the bottom of the stream. Ile escaped without serious in jury, and came out from his unexpected bath much soberer than he went in. Owing to the Pinkerton tunnel being en fire the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company send passengers for Baltimore and Washing ton by way of Huntingdon and Bedford on the Penna. R. R. A general order was issued on Tuesday to the conductors on the P. R. R. to honor all tickets of the Baltimore and Ohio road for Washington at d Baltimore.—Bedford Gazette. During the summer and fall we noticed in these columns the very fine field of corn grow ing on the old fair ground, on the land of Jack ArCahan. Well, the crop has been gathered, and off of eleven and a quarter acres he cribbed fourteen hundred and seventeen bushels of as fine corn as was ever grown. This is a large attd it would have been still larger had it not been necessary to re-plant the greater part of the field. Mr. John Richardson, of our town, in the employ of Mr. Henry Snare, met with a seri ous accident, at Shirleysburg, on Wednesday morning last, by falling from the roof of the County Alms House. He was brought to his home in the evening in an unconscious state. We have been unable to learn how the acci dent happened or the nature or extent of the injuries sustained. Some dealers say that they can make more profit on tub oysters than by selling the bivalves from the•shell.—Barrisburg Telegraph. Of course they can; water at twenty-five cents per quart pays handsomely. A friend informs us that he paid tvfenty-five cents for a quart the other day, and when they were thrown in to a dish he discovered that he had eighteen oysters about the size of a nickle. Of course tub oysters pay better than in the shell. In another column will be found the ad vertisement of the Home Mirror, quite a read able little paper published at Longmont, Col. From the following, which we clip from its columns, it will be seen that Prof. Emmert, of the Brethren's Normal College, in this place, has been doing the artistic work for the paper. ,4 1). Emmert, whose address is Huntiogdon, Pennsylvania, is the artist who drew the en gravings for the Home Mirror. His prices are much more reasonable than any artist we had to make estimates for us." Mr. Waring, of Tyrone, Court Reporter for this judicial district, having gone west on a trip, has been appointed Reporter for the District Court of Denver. If he accepts there will be a vacancy to fill here. R. McDivitt, esq., who is spoken of for the position, is a good stenographer, and a good citizen, and we should like to see him receive the appoint ment.--Aft. Union Times. We understand that the members of the Bar will ask for the ap pointment of Mr. M'Divitt in case Mr. Waring accepts the position to which be has been elected. Some one told us on Saturday morning that there had been seven or eight extra policemen on duty during Thursday and Friday nights for the purpose of holding the gamin in check on Hollow'een, but any person who walked along Mifflin street from 6 to 8 o'clock on Friday night, would have come to the conclu sion that there was not a policeman within a mile of the town. The conduct of the boys, and some three or four young women—we were going to write ladies, but we won't—was simply outrageous and disgraceful. In some cases there is "too much of a good thing," and so it was in this instance. Dr. Hays, editor of the Harrisburg Every Saturday Night, is going to frame a bill, and ask for its passage at the next session of the Legislature, looking to the protection of news paper publishers from fraudulent advertisers. So far, so good, but the Doctor should em body a section in his proposed bill that will reach the "dead beat" class of subscribers, many of whom are to be found in every com munity. There are men who subscribe for a paper without ever intending to pay for it, and when the publisher asks for his pay and threatens to collect it by process of law, some oL them taunt him by telling him to "pull hair off a toad" that "their wives own everything and that the bill is not collectable." These are the scoundrels who should be attended to in Dr. Hays' proposed bill, and every pub lisher in the State should join hands with Dr. Hays and assist him in securing the passage of a bill that will protect them from this class of "dead beats" and scoundrels. RACHEL RIDDLE.—In the Conference News, for November, we find the following article on the death and character of this in teresting child, and as the deceased was well known to a number of our citizens, we take pleasure in giving it a place in the JOURNAL : Rachel Riddle, aged ten years, a daughter of Rev. F. B. Riddle, died at Tyrone, Oct. 7th, and was buried on the 9th, Revs. T. Sherlock and E. Butler conducting the funeral services. She was a remarkable child, evincing mental and spiritual perceptions far beyond her years. With her study was a delight, and difficult mathematical problems were a recreation. She displayed a talent for composition, and left as a legacy, which is prized by our bereaved brother, some scraps of poetry which show not only thought and a knowledge of the details of Scripture, but the devotional spirit which dwelt in her young breast. One of these is entitled "The Savior," and concludes thus : "At last he was nailed to the tree, To die for yon and me. Ah ! what love does this show For sinners poor and low. And after.he has done so much for you and me. Can we not willing say, Jeans, I will follow thee." Young as she was, she was completely re- signed to the will of the Lord. Some time before she died she repeated the 23d Psalm, .;:mphasizing the passage, "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me, thy rod and thy staff they comfort me." The loss of this saintly child is deeply felt in the house hold of which she was a member, but though dead she yet in her beautiful life speaks com fort to the sorrowing hearts she has left be hind her, and while we commend them to "The Savior" whom she loved, we commend her example to our young readers especially, and hope they may heed the words which she addresses to them in oue of her little poems : "And now, 1 ask every girl and boy To choose eternal peace and joy ; For if we seek Him while we're young, In eternity with the angels we'll be among." REAL ESTATE IN THE WEST.—The Denver Land Company offer in another column alternate lots in their addition. These alter nate lots are in fact given away, though a nominal charge of one dollar is made for the need. The Company limit the number pur chasable at this price to five lots. Many of the large cities of the 'West have been started in a similar manner, asd those who secured lots then, find themselves now in possession of valuable property. The opportunity does not often present itself of making an invest ment in Real Estate at such prices. The re liability of the Company and their title to the property being well established, there could be no risk, with a fine prospcet for a rapid increase in value. Denver has had such a wonderfully rapid growth, it is probable that the land offered will be speedily taken up. A SURPRISED PHYSICIAN.—.R Dying Patient Recovers through the interposition of a Bumble German.—Some weeks ago Dr. G—, a very reputable and widely-known physician, living on C---street, was called to attend a very complicated case of Rheumatism. Upon arriving at the house he found a man about forty years of age, lying in a prostrated and serious condition, with his whole frame dan eerously affected with the painful disease.— [lc for the patient, but the man continued to grow worse, and on Sunday eve ning he was found to be in a very alarming condition. The knees :toil elbow and larger joints were pTcatly intltmed and ,oubl not Itc• moved. It. was only with extreme difficulty that the patient could be turned in bed, with the aid of three or four persons. The weight of the clothing was so oppressive that means had to be adopted to keep it from the patient's body. The doctor saw that his assistance would be of no avail, and left the house, Cie members of the family following him to the door, weep ing. At this critical hour, a neighbor, a poor and humble German shoemaker, appeared to the grief-smitten ones as a saving angel. lie had heard of the despair of the f•amity, and now asked them to try his remedy, and ac cordingly brought forth a bottle of Sr•. JAcons' mt. As a drowning man will catch at straws, so the poor wife applied this remedy ; she had no hope, but would try anything, as a matter of duty. The first application eased the patient very much ; after a few hours they used it again, and, wonder of wonders, the pain v,.n ished entirely ! Every subsequent applica tion improved the sufferer, and in two days he was well and out. When the doctor called a few dais after, he was indeed surprised ; for, instead of a corpse, he found a new-made man.—Exchange.

JACKSON JOTTINGS.— The rain on the night of the 21st ult. glad dened the hearts of many. Snow squalls on the 24th ult., caused many overcoats to be brought forth and worn with comfort. William Oburn is busily engaged buildings kiln with a view of going into the lime burn ing bUsiness. The day is not far distant when many of them will be erected in this section. The dwelling house of Finley Strunk, situate two miles north west of McAlavey's Fort, caught fire from a defective fine, on the 28th ult., and burned to the ground. • Mr. Strunk and sons were absent from home at the time the fire took place, and the flames were per mitted to persue their course unmolested. A Rill of the goods in the first and second stories were saved, but the articles in the cellar and on the pirret, consisting of apples, potatoes, five kettles of apple butter, canned fruits, &c., were all consumed. There being no insurance the loss was a large one. Mr. Strunk was a former resident of Mifflin county, but removed to this county some ten years ago, where he has an innumerable host of friends who sym pathize with him La his mifortane. C.

DR. _MITCHELL'S REI'LY TO , •CIVI.S." For th4IIIIINGDOI JOURNAL.) MR.

This scrutiny nus heen , I , Tcrre.l moan 1, , 114er than I at first in tended. _ there I, :1, ro.qn for a. complaint of raireprecentic : : (1.‘14, 1 quote from him as fol lows " I cannot in just c to the betinterest* of society and of public morals refrain from x passing notice of what emild not fail to intpre,s the mind of auy attentive ob— server uti a series of the ino , t disgraceful and sickening pi,tures of immorality, drunkenness, obscenity and 5 41,- bath deseeratimi that it low ever fallen to my lot to wit "Never, mince, or even during the war, have I seen as demoralized a crowd or as disgustingly shameful conduct ns oil hoard the crowded return trod. .in Sunday evening. The fumes of tobaceo smoke end bad whisky, the profane oath, the obscene jest atel the vulgar Sollg mingled in horrid confusion till the scene was far more suggestive of a midnight revel of fiends than of a crowd of intelligent and moral citizens returning from a religions meeting. Theft, was hooting and yelling, shouting and cursing, with language nutit for the ear of decency, till it seemed as it the lower regions had for a time emptied its surplus population to hold fur the time being an infernal revel here upon earth. "( if the immense crowd assembled on the camp ground, I du not think that °scout of ten attended or participa ted iu any religious exercises, while the grove and the sur roundings were filled with the lewd, the licentious, the sunken and debauched, ofbotb sexes, regardless of decen ry careless of exposure. "lint it ea., during the lust night of the meeting, on the ramp ground :mud on the way home, that the moat shame ful, disgusting and soul-sickening scenes were witnessed. Drunkenness, lewdness, profanity, licentiousness anti general rowdyism seemed to hold their mad revel, with out a hand to stay them, without distinction of sex or condition, all on the same common drunken level, and that far down beneath the level of the brute creation. A drunken woman, under any circumstances, is a most re volting and pitiable sight, and of all of Eve's frail daugh ters is regarded as the most sunken and debased, but shall we say it, here were young ladies, no, not young ladies, but young women, daughters of respectable citizens of this town and elsewhere, whose names I am strongly tempted to, and may hereafter give, on the camp ground that night, within the sound of the gospel, alternately paging the whisky balk, smoking cigars asui singing blackguard songs ! And even this was eclipsed by their conduct on.their way homeward; where those young girls were to be seen, sumo of them reeling through the cars, smoking cigars and regaling the crowd with slang phrases, obscene remarks and snatches of vulgar songs., while the others more completely overcome with the fumes of their debauch, were half sitting, half lying on the mats in a drunken stupor unconscious or indifferent to the indecent exposure of their persons to the gaze of the vulgar crowd, and in this condition they were taken from the cars to their homes. What a sight for parents to gaze on ! "One word more by way of comment. In conversation with one of the ministers during the early stages of the meeting, in reply to an inquiry as to bow the meeting was progressing, (spiritually of course), the answer was ab 'tat ay lellows : 'Well now we are doing very well, we have taken in yesterday and to-day more money than on the corresponding days last year, and by to-morrow I think we will do better still, so that upon the whole I think the meeting this year will be a decided success.' The primary object of the meeting,the preaching of the gospel and the conversion of sinners was never once hinted at, and I could not help exclaiming, good heavens! has it come to this! May not the answer to the inquiry be measurably formed in this, that the church in its anxiety to meet the world half way has at last got down to its level, that the overwhelming anxiety to make money has taken precedence of every other consideration to such an extent that the primary object of the meetings has been lost sight of, and their influence for good has departed. If so, would it not be well either to commence a radical change in the manner of conducting these meetings or dispense with them entirely." - - - - Veracious Civic Do not this scenes of black guardism, drunkenness and lewdness that you describe, and the greed for gain indicated by the "minister" whom you profess to quote, which so horrifies you that you can't help a little profane swearing, rival the wickedness of the "Five Points," and the rapacity of "Wall Street ?" While your hand was in, might it not have been as well to have gone on a little further, and to have related other astounding things as having takan place? Why did you nut tell the "public" that on Sunday morning, while Dr. Hamlin was preaching, a riot eslipsing the New York riot of war-times took place just outside of the circle where Divine service was held, in which not less than 25;000 persons, men, women and children, wore indiscriminately engaged, yelling like de mons, hurling stones and brick bats, brandishing bowie knives and daggers; then plunging them to , the hearts of their victims, all accompanied by a deafening discharge of firearifts; that the terrible conflict went on ! and on ! until sheer exhaustion of the combatants put an ens to the carnage; that as nearly as could be ascertained 799 persons were killed, and 3001 wounded; and yet strange to say, the worship within the circle went on as though all was quiet everywhere. Then you could have completed the picture by saying that you saw on the grounds not less than a dozen of stock-brokers' quarters, that millions of money were pooled, and that some made, and others Let, immense fortunes. But to the scrutiny of some of the statements of Civis. Most persons reading his communication, I think, would receive the impression that he was an eye and ear witness or what he says took place on both the Sunday, and the last night of the meeting. True, he does not e.cpressly say that he saw and heard the disgraceful doings of the last night, but simply that they "were witnessed ;" while it was his "lot to witness" those of Sunday night. Now either he did, or did not, witness th a ' orgies of the "last night of the meeting." If he says that he did not witness them, then he gives us second-hand representations Of them, and is hut the nsouth-piece of others; and yet he is "strongly teuipLed to, and may hereafter, give the names" of these ."young women," of hose con duct he could have known nothing personally. Brave Civis! But if he says he did witness them, then, does he not contradict himself ? For in des cribing the scenes on the Sunday night train he uses the perfect tense, saying "never since, or dur ing the war, have 1 seen as demoralized a crowd or as disgustingly shameful conduct as on board the crowded return train on Sunday evening." Thus up to the Hiss of his writing, from war-times on, he had never witnessed enormities equaling these, and yet the last night's scenes are worse. Which horn of this dilemma will Civic elect to hang on ? Will he say that he was, or will he say that he was nut on the ground and on the train the last night? But again. lie says "Of the immense crowd as sembled on the camp ground, I do not think that one out of ten attended or participated in any of the religious exercises, • while the grove and the surroundings were filled with the lewd, the licen tious, the sunken and debauched of both sexes, regardless of decency and careless of exposure." When he says that the "grove and surroundings were filled" with these persons, does he wish his readers to think that they so "tilled" the place, that there was not standing room for any others Then, I suppose that even the "one out of tea" that may have "attended or participated in the religious exercises," mast themselves have been of these debauchees! And where could the iminaa ulate Civis find room for the sole of his foot Perhaps he "longed for the wings of a delis that he might fly away," but no ! he seems to have been fated to stay with this vile horde on the grounds and on the train ! My estimate of the attendance of the "immense crowd" on Divine service differs from that of Civic. Instead of not "one out of ten" attending, I believe that there was not one in forty that did not attend. At nine o'clock Sunday morning, nearly all on the grounds, excepting those in care of their tents, heard Dr. McMurray preach. At I.oi Mr. Hinkle Dr. Hamlin and Mr. Buck ingham were to preach in circles one, two and three. The congregations of circles one and two, when it threatened rain about 11 o'clock took to the tabernacle circle, where Dr. Hamlin preached to them. Mr. Buckingham's service, where I wor shiped, in circle three, ending about 12 o'clock. I went to the head of the tabernacle circle, where I had a good view of Dr. Hamlin's congregation, as occupying the seats in, and around the taber nacle, and filling up nearly all the standing room as well, numbering fully 4,000 people, all quiet. After listening to him about five minutes, I passed into, and then across, circle two to the restaurant neighborhood, where I had a full view of the grounds towards the R. R.station and southward; then crossing the grounds below the tabernacle circle, I passed up through circle one to the boarding house, and am quite sure that I did not see more than a hundred persons in all out side of the tents. Then there was an immense attendance at children's meeting at 1, r, a., very few walking about or in the woods; nearly all in tensely interested in the children's meeting as conducted by Mr. Akers. At 3P. a. there was preaching in circles one, two and three by Messrs. i'enepacker, Wilson and Guyer, and the attend ance was nearly equal to the morning. At 7i P. a. preaching in circles one and two, by Messrs. Ross and Ferguson, about 3,000 being in attend ance. I presume about 1,000 lett the grounds for home before evening service, and not many came by the train arriving at 7:20 e. it. Now if there were 3,000 at the "exercise," Sunday night there must have been, according to Civis, 30,000, who were not at them ! A little fishy ! 0 Civic! Civic! Now about "the overwhelming desire to make money." Can it be that lam so blind, that if such a desire exists, I have seen no indications of it on the part of the campmeeting authorities during the three years I have been in charge of the meeting? Through the last two meetings, our people of Mt. Union have had charge of the res taurant and boarding house, do., giving to the di rectors a moderate rent for them, that by giving their services free of charge,theymight do something towards relieving their church building from an almost unmanageable debt. That noble people only have been financially interested in the receipts at the meeting,outside of the tent rents,very moderate, and a public co lection, also very moderate, to defray the traveling expenses, &c., of ministers who come from a distance to serve the cause. If money making was the object, would the regulation be made, and be so rigidly adhered to, by the di rectors, not to permit the sale of anything on the Sabbath, but what is absolutely necessary ? Some years ago, the gentleman who had the boarding house and restaurant, had a quantity of water melons on hand Saturday evening, of which he pro posed to sell on Sunday as on other days. The directors finding that they had neglected to bind him not to do this, proposed to pay him for the loss he might sustain by not selling them on the Sabbath. Be accepted the proposition, sold none on the Sabbath, and got from the directors And now I make a proposition. If any "min ister" can be found who attended the meeting, and who will say that he said to any body, what Civil represents that he said to him, in substance, in response to his inquiry, I will donateto Civic' Sun day school $lO, and do it. without Civil; en masking himself. I make another proposition. If the atithorities of the church, with which Civis has affinity, will put him on the witness stand, that I may cross-question him on his communication, I will give them $25 towards their church debt, and he can keep his visor down "the while." Now I here say that with the exception of a little irregularity on the part of a few young men about eleven o'clock the last night of the meet ing, I saw, or heard of nothing on the grounds, at any time, though I looked and listened much, in any way disorderly. As t, the Sunday night Feenes on the a irs, I hat •• ',ever beard a word hut from Civis. A dty t.r two sft,•r tire meeting. closed, I was told of the• very had ttoriduot of about a dozen at young persons on the train cowing west the last night of the meeting ; and some names were given me. I need hardly ea) that this deeply yricred Surely the "public" cqnnot but be g'ad 'that thor, lives such a truthful and brace person as Civis to blow the alarm trumpet ; and the. "intrents and guardian,' of those girls," fur whose welfare he fairly sacrifices himself, should take h - m to their homes and hea-ts. Whetht.r he will sanceed in causing a 'radical change in the [winner of conducting th , es mnet lugs." or ell:se those who have them in charge to with them entirely." remains to he seen.
