LOCAL AFFAIRS.
Hospitals for the sick and wounded are
talked of through the country towns, it be
ing desirable to remove them from the cit
ies during the hot weather. Some inqui
ries have been made here as to our capacity
for affording room. The young man
whose death by lightning we noticed last
week, was Wilson Harman, a son of Isaae,
aged about 20 years. He was killed on
the farm of S. W. Taylor, deceased. A
corps of engineers commenced surveying
the lines for the projected railroad to the
valley, and we suppose as soon as they are
through operations will be commenced on
this end of the road. The river bridge
will either have to be purchased or a uew
one erected. High Constable Miller has
returned a number of parties for obstruc
tions on the streets and alleys, and is get
ting tWem into some kind of order, a move
in which all good citizens ought to support
him, as (his converting public property
to private use has been carried to an un
warrantable extent. The greatest nuisance
on the streets now is a number of cows
whose owners are "pasturing and stabling"
them on the streets. Why not drive them
out of town, during the day at leasts
NATIONAL HORSE FAIR.—The Annual
Exhibition ot horses for the United States
will be held at Williamsport, in this State,
in September next, when admirers of this
noble animal can probably see a better col
lection than may be met with again for
many years, except at the expense of long
journeys.
PIELEASEH PRISONERS.—SamueI Tice
and Geo. W. 'lhrelked, the last of the
men from thi3 place held as prisoners by
the rebels for nearly a year, returned home
on Sunday morning, looking quite well,
and were warmly welcomed by their friends.
Ihese prisoners had not been paid since
their enlistment, and now receive in pay,
rations, Ac. about 8300 each, a sum which,
i; well husbanded, may prove a good .itart
ing point in life.
Tm: 4th.—hat will be done on the
4th of July? is a question asked by many.
No public demonstration has been arrang
ed so far, and unless speedily taken hold
of, we suppose it will be celebrated as us
ual for some years by detached parties here
and there, with a few htm died dollars was
ted in firing oft' crackers, rockets, Ac.
the Educational Column last
week "unitarian'" ought to have read "util
itarian." The error had been marked in
♦he proof, but was overlooked.
A correspondent of the Press, speaking of
the heat of the weather in the camp before
Richmond, says: Most of the regiments are
somewhat protected from Sol's ray? by the
foliage of the woods in which they are en
camped. Other regiments were compelled to
put up shelter, or suffer. The 49th Pa.
Regt. is unauimously allowed to have the
finest encampment in this vicinity. Largo
arbors, covered with green foliage, have been
erected by the men, under which the respec
tive companies assemble, and the men lie
during the day when there is no work on
hand. Each tent has its entrance protected
by a bower of similar material, and the effect
is to give the camp a very pretty and pictur
esque appearance.

Sabbath School Meeting.
A meeting of the friends of Sabbath Schools
was held in the M. E Church, Freedom Forge,
ou Iriday evening, June 13th, for the purpose
of forming a S. S. Teachers' Association.
On motion, the Rev. S. 11. C. Smith was
-ailed to the chair, and B. F. Miller chosen
Secretary. The object of the meeting was
Hated to be a desire to awaken a deeper in
terest in the community on the subject of
Sabbath Schools. After the views of many
present were expressed in regard to it, the
following Sabbath Schoola, represented by
'-heir Superintendents and Assistant Supts.,
Jrianimouely resolved to form themselves into
J Sabbath School Association, to be known by
the name of "The Sabbath School Association
the Little Valleys." The following schools
comprise those that were represented j
Yeagertown ; Cove Mills; Aurand's ; Little
galley ; Dry Valley ; Mount Rock ; Freedom
forge; Granville ; Wittenmeyer's.
A committee was appointed to nominate
and elect permanent officers for the Assooia
t'on, which reported as follows: For Presi
dent—Col. John A. Wright; Vice Presidents
~A. P. Blymyer, Jas. H. Alexander; Secre
cy—R- F. Miller ; Asst. Secretary—John
Rojt, to be elected semi-annually. It was
resolved that the meetings of the Association
nc held monthly, and on the first Tuesday
each month, at suoh plaoe as the Associa
tion may designate. The next meeting is to
°e held in the Presbyterian Church, Little
*' J ey, Rev. Mr. Strain, pastor.
I be commanity showed their appreciation
this great and glowing auxiliary of the
by the large and interesting audienoe
present. A committee was also appointed to
form a similar Association in Decatur tnwn

The Late David McCav.
The following cuuies to us from au uu
known correspondent, though the handwri
ting appears familiar:
BCELL'S ARMY, j
NEAR CUMBERLAND RIVER, >
TENNESSEE.
It is with profound sorrow that in this far
off country I have read the obituary notice of
the Rev. David MCC&y, and I cannot but ask
the privilege of saying one word in memory
of a man who perhaps above all others within
the circle of my acquaintance has led a epot
less and blameless life. Amiable in his dis
position, and possessing a mind of a hih
order, he early in life was looked up to by his
companions, as a counsellor, guide and friend,
fhe few of his schoolfellows and playmates
of the Juniata that are left will lemember
with lively gratification the many kind acts
of friendship bestowed upon them by their
departed friend, that while they had sparring
and occasionally childish quarrels, yet never
with David McCay. His gravity of deport
ment and equanimity of temper never carried
him into excitements, or lured him into the
paths of mischief. Others may have tasted
the fruit of their neighbor's garden without
the owner's permission, or the watermelon
that could only he had by a violation of one
of Hod's commandments, hut which too often
is looked upon as a youthful indiscretion, hut
none of tlicm by the subject of this article.
Religion in early life had taken fast hold up
on him. Ihe example of a father who, if he
erred at all, it was by his rigid adherence to the
gospel truths, which he did with alinos' puri
tanica! rigor; or of a mother who, with chris
tian meekness, lay for long years prostrate on
a bed of sickness, had its influence in forming
the character of this most estimable man.
Forty years since, or more, there was but
little church service of auy kind in Lewistown,
other than that which was held in the old
Court House, that quaint old edifice that stood
in the centre of the public square. Here, on
each Sabbath morning might be seen those
venerated fathers of the Presbyterian church,
r * u 't ers i Mr. McCay and Mr. Robison,
anu indeed nearly the whole town
their way to hear the Il.v. Mr. Kenedy preach
from the Judge's heaob, and here was the
rite of baptism performed on Ibivid McCay;
and in long after years, when the Rev. gentle
man, by an appeal to he received into the
ministry of the church from which he had been
suspended fur many years, young .McCay, then
hut recently in the ministry, sat as one of his
judges. In describing the scene to the writer
he spoke of it as one that caused in his breast
emotions singularly painful, and yet gratify
ing. that hi-< first pastor, then a penitent man,
could by his vote he restored to the ministry,
and could again go forth to preach the gospel
of Jesus Christ. That vuie \yas given, and
that old man lived to call him blest, and he
once more returned to the town where he had
so long ministered, to find many changes, and
some of them, alas, how sad.
That rlie subject of our sketch took a lively
interest in the success of our arms I can read
ily believe, and the fact that In* followed the
army of hi 3 country to the tented field that
he might minister to his dying countrymen,
spoke of a heart in the right place.
Few ever passed to the tomb so well prepn
red t) meet a righteous Judge at the last great
day, and r.viv the influence ofhis example be
felt in long after years.
i'hose of Ins schoolfellows wh survive him
will remember how excellent he was in his
class, how he excelled in his studies, and
how readily he drank in knowledge. If hv
his weak voice he failed to attract the atten
tion of the lover of rhetorical display, yt he.
never failed to attrnet the interest oi the
attentive li-tener, ; t s his discourses were clear
and methodical, evincing a mind of no com
mon order. His was not that of an empty
bubble, but a depth of learning that to lie
appreci ito 1 should bo heard and studied with
deep attention.
Farewell, friend of my boyhood days Your
spirit has found an eternal rest, and if in that
unknown world you are permitted to raise
your voice in praise, that youthful voice that
sw.etly sang in the old stone church was but
a prelude of your heavenly music. Green be
the grass over your loved form. You have
been gathered to your fathers amid the scenes
of your childhood, and that little family group
that forty years since formed a happy house
hold, have nearly all passed to that bourne
from which no traveler has ever yet returned.

Cottage Hill College — Water Facilities—Fish
Garden — Flowers — A Natural Orator.
YORK, PA., June 23, 1862.
The other day I visited Cottage Hill Col
lege. This is a fine, large building, beauti
fully situated on the north bank of the Co
dorus creek, just opposite town. It is now
occupied by Profs, lleiges and Griffith as a
Normal and Classical Institute. These en
terprising gentlemen have already done much
for the advancement of educational interests
in this county. Their liberality in furnish
ing their school with every necessary conven
ience, their zeal in the cause in which they
are engaged, and their eminently practical
methods of instruction have won for them
a high reputation and secured them an ex
tensive patronage, although they have not
yet completed their first session. I was
highly pleased w : th my visit. It was quite
a relief to get away from the hot and dusty
streets and enjoy the cooling shade, the pleas
ant walks, and delightful breeze which seems
to be always playing about " Cottage Hill."
On the one side of the building is a large
and beautiful spring. A small water wheel
and pump forces the water through pipes to
the very top of the buildiDg, (an elevation of
probably 100 feet.) from whence it is distrib
uted to various apartments in the house, to
fountains in the yard, etc. A number of
" speckied beauties" have been placed in the
the spring, and we amused ourselves for some
time in throwing them worms and watching
them darting like eagles, and displaying an
activity which would have caused the arm of
a trout-fishing editor to feel rather nervous.
After partaking of an excellent supper, we
took a stroll in the garden and among the
flowers. We wondered at the quantity of
peas in the garden, but ceased to wonder
when informed that, when the school is in
operation, one bushel (shelled) make but a
single mess. The grounds are adorned with
a number of shade trees and a great many
varieties of beautiful flowers, specimens of
which I received in the shape of a handsome
boquet. Before leaving, we were entertained
with an harangue from a natural orator in
the person of a jolly, round faced old man, j
who came into the yard to exhibit some spec
imens of soap, receipts for making which be
wished to self. He proclaimed himself a
" Hinglishman," but protested strongly in
favor of American institutions and American
genius, especially that of Ben Franklin. He
thought the thunder and lightning would still
be running wild, had it not been for Ben
Ben was his model. Ben labored for the
good of the people by promulgating princi
plea of economy and truth, aud so did he—
by selling them receipts to make good soap, j
lhis traveling Demosthenes professed to be :
a worn out tallow chandler, but I strongly
suspect that he was a traveling jour printer.
1 rot. 11. bought one of his receipts, gave ,
him a bite to eat, and he went on his way
rejoicing. w
