LOCAL AFFAIRS.
DIALEXIAN EXHIBITION.
The Dialexian Society will hold their
second quarterly exhibition on Wednesday
and Thursday evenings, June 25th and
20th. It is only necessary to state to their
numerous friends that two new pieces—
equal if not superior to those performed at
their last exhibition—will be played.
The first play is entitled " The Jacobite."
Characters —Sir Richard Wroughton, Lady
isomerford, Major Murray, Widow Pottle,
Patty Pottle, JOHN DICK, Page, Corporal,
&c.
Scene 1st —An English bar room.
Scene 2nd—An apartment in Sir Rich
ard's mansion.
'The second play is called " Two I'wjes
from History, or the. Beginning and End
of the Rebellion" —in two acts and two
scenes —in which all the members will ap
pear in different characters.
Scene Ist—Uncle Sam's House.
Scene 2nd—The Rebel Congress—(a
burlesque.)
Good music will be in attendance.
Tickets of admission 15 cents—children
10. Poors open at 7 o'clock—perform
ance commences at 8.
Van Amburgh's Menagerie exhibited
here on Monday afternoon to one of the
largest audiences we have seen for a long
time, and in the evening also had a pretty
fair representation. They have fine ani
mals, &c., and gave general satisfaction for
the quarters taken in. One of the liar
man family we hear was killed by lightning
on Thursday afternoon, near Belleville,
while standing under a tree. The light
ning also struck the station house across
the river last week, but passed down the
rod without doing any damage. All
children ought to be instructed that if they
can the lightning during a thunderstorm,
no danger to them need be apprehended,
as the flash and report are blended where
it strikes. Some nervous grown up folks
might also save themselves much anxiety
by remembering this fact. Some hold
attempts at robbery were made on Thursday
night last by some person or persons as yet
unknown. The saloon under the Red Lion
was fir 4 entered, the till broken v.pen, some
change taken, and so far as known a can of
oysters and a bottle of brandy. Aaron El
liott's shoe shop was next entered and a lew
pairs of boots and shoes stolen; and then
the counting room of Marks & Willis, from
which however but little booty was obtain
eJ, the safe having resisted all attempts to
open it. Strong efforts are being made
to obtain subscriptions to the stock of the
projected railroad from Lewistown north
ward, and we learn with considerable suc
cess -A portion of the wheat so badly
prostrated last week is again standing erect,
and although patches here and there will
hardly ripen, still the prospects for a good
crop are favorable. Oats and corn, which
had beeu very short, are also rapidly im
proving in appearance, and with favorable
weather may yet give a good yield. The
morniugs, evenings and nights continue
quite cool—almost cold enough for frosts
—with warm sunshine in the middle of the
day.

Congressional Nomination.
The formation of a new congressional
district has frequently brought out the
query whether any particular portion more
than another is entitled to the candidate.
As a general rule it may be stated that
BO part is so entitled, yet circumstances
sometimes govern the selection on this very
ground, and may come into play this fall.
Blair has had the member for two terms
under the old apportionment, leading Cam
bria, Huntingdon and Mifflin, the last nam
ed being the only county out of the four
presenting no candidate. As a selection
wust be made by the Union men of this
county, permit me to second a good word
for one of the candidates from an adjoining
county, which will be found in the Harris
"urg Telegraph of last Wednesday :
Brioe X. Blair, formerly a member of
e legislature from Huntingdon county, is
e Poken of as a candidate for Congress from
jp e district of which that county forms a por
tion. Since the death of Col. Wharton, who
*as regarded as the most prominent candi
date for Congress in that district, we be
lieve that Mr. Blair leads all the other men
spoken of in the same connection. He
!e certainly a man of great ability and ex
perience as a legislator, and one tooeminent
'J qualified by his patriotism and knowledge
°j the wants of that district to make a dis-
? n guished representative. Without pretend
®Djß to interfere in the preferences of our
biends in aDy of the Congressional districts
'he state, we would be gratified to hear of
♦dr. Blair's nomination, because it would be
'&ptamount to a brilliant victory in the dis
ject. for the cause of the Constitution, the
ynjon and Republicanism.

Daring Deed. —On Sunday night, about

were set cn fire, and eTerything of a perish

of Col. Gibson, who acknowledged his obli

age, saying that his oonduot was worthy of bis
