Januuiy 28, and one in Milroy a few days
after. The programme will embrace mu
sic entirely new—fresh from the press. —
The public are urgeut!3' requested to give

every Mucedoneun call.
It has no salaried officers, nor any ex

FESTIVAL*. — The Apprentices' Literary
Society, assisted by a number of ladies,
intend holding a Festival, to commence
on Tuesday evening, Feb. oth, for the
purpose of liquidating the debt on their
hall, or repairing the building. Commit
tees have been appointed to solicit arti
cles for the tables, fec., consisting of Mrs.
F. J. 11 oilman, Mrs. J. A. MoKee, Mrs.
Granville Patterson, Miss Delia Thomas,
and Miss Maggie McKee, who will visit
our citizens, and we hope meet with lib
eral responses. Those friendly to the In
stitution, either in town or country, can
leave donations at this office or the Dem
ocrat office. Turkeys, chickens, cakes,
cream, &c., will be very acceptable.
8. S. FESTIVAL. — The teachers and of
ficers of tile Presbyterian Sabbath School
of this place intend giving their scholars
a feast of good tilings to-morrow after
noon, in the. rooms occupied by the
schools. These occasions do not fail to
impress the young, for kindness shown a
child in this way will not soon lie forgot
ten, and only opens wider the door to the
finer feelings, by touching the spring of
gratitude, affording opportunity to the
teacher for sowing seeds which with prop
er culture will hardly fail in bringing
forth good fruit when a full grown tree.
STEREOSCOPIC VIEWS. — We lately ri
ceived a number of stereoscopic views of
American scenery, from Messrs. E. & H.
L Anthony & Co., 00l Broadwaj", N. Y.,
which for clearness and faithfulness are
far superior to our previous collection.
They show that art, in this respect, has
made its due share of progress—the dinfer
ence being as perceptible as between a
baguerreau and a photographic picture.
Messrs. A. A Co., have the largest stock
o: Camera, Lenses, Views
and Portraits, Photographic Albums, and
everything else pertaining to such a busi
ng, in the United States, if not in the
Nvrll, and we commend them to purcha
sers who may visit that city; or if money
orders are sent the3 r can rcl3' upon receiv
es whatever is ordered.

Sheriff McEwen has appointed Joseph
S. \V aream Deputy Sheriff. Mr. W. now
holds and receives the emoluments-of four
different offices, and, rumor says, he is
also acting clerk for the County Treasu
rer, which would make a fifth.—Demo-
Well, aint it democratic to do so? Mr.
Wareain's case is not an exception but the
rule, for although the democracy has
plenty of hewers of wood and drawers < f
water, numbers of them would not get an
otliee it they lived a thousand years, while
others only have to ask and they receive,
rotating from one office toanotheras nat
urally as geese take to water. The above
complaint however is not confined to
Lewistown, for a correspondent up the
river sends us the following, from which
we infer that the disease is also in exist
anee there:
Will you please inform us in your next
pajier whether it is lawful and right for
one man to hold more than one office of
profit or trust at the same time. We are
informed that there are some now in sun
dry districts of our county, who hold two
or three offices. If it is not lawful, the
public ought to know it. Modest men
generally decline or resign an office when
elected to another, usually us soon as nom
inated. Surely competent men are not
so scarce yet.

An alarm of lire was raised during the
storm on Sunday afternoon, caused by
smoke issuing between the plastering and

there being more smoke than tire.
Two Men Killed. —A terrible accident
occurred in one of the ore mines of the
Cambria Iron Co., on Saturday a week,
03* which two Englishmen, named Dunn
and llotciikins, were almost
killed, by the premature explosion of a
blast. DIIIIII leaves a wife and five chil
dren in England. Hutch kins was about
21 3'ears ot age, had been here but a short
time, and lea vesao family. We bear that
the family of Dunn was expected by him
to arrive in Johnstown in a shorttime.
How very sad is the story which a few
lines ot printers' types suffice to narrate.

An Old Ileli -. —Seventy-five and one
hundred 3"eurs ago, when .spinning was
extensively practised, it was customary,
in some sections of the Country, at the
end of the week to give hired spinsters
each a piece of hard soap as a present. —
We saw a piece the other da 3*, preserved
I3' M:s. Arbogaslo. tins place, that is now
7ti 3'ears old. It is oonsiderauly lighter
than new soap and looks oldish, yet has
preserved its identity to a remarkable
degree. She has several pieces that she
thus received 7 > years ago; and though it
is oni3" hard soap, 3'et it is a rare relic ot
ye olden time we dare say. — Selinsgrooe

Accident in Perry. — We learn from the
Perry County Advocate that on Friday
last, David >Stumbaugh, Jr., of Spring
township, while on the mow
above the threshing Hour of his father's
barn, in which was stored a grain drill,
reaper, and other farming implements,
fell through a hole in the mow to the floor
beneath, striking his head upon the large
wheel of the reaper, injuring himself, it
is feared fatally. From the time of the
accident he had not uttered a word, having
lost the power of sjK*ech.
SHIR KING ACCIDENT AT DCNCAXXON
—. 1 man Cut in 2'tvuaml instantly Killed.
—Mark Haines, engineer at the Duncan
lion Nail Factory, was filled on Monday
morning 113- being caught in the maehin
ery. It appears that he was about fixing
something at the machinery when he was
caught in the belting and thrown upon
the cog wheels —then in motion—which
crushed and cut his body into two parts.
He was highly respected in Dunennnon,
and was a member of the Lodge of Oild

They have deemed expedient to offer them to their
friends and the public at one dollar and fifty cent!
each, the price heretofore having been two dollar!
each, and for the purpose of stimulating the getting
up of Clubs, they have determined to award prem*
umns to the getters up of the clubs, and in addition
thereto to distribute amongst the subscribers the sum
of Sdu.oOO in money and paintings, as soon as the solo
shall have reached 100,000 engravings. As it is our
intention to advertise very entensively, and as tha
engravings are well known throughout the whola
country, we have no donbt, that with the low price wa
charge for them, and with the exertion which will ba
put forth by our numerous friends, the number wilt
be reached in a short time. As soon as it ia reached,
the subscribers, through their club agents, will be no
tified by a circular letter irom us, naming the time
and method of distribution.

The American ArtmW Vision would add that these
premiums are to be considered only in the light of a
free gift to their patrons, as the Engravings are fUr
nished them below their market value, and as the cost
of engravings, after the plates are procured, is very
trifling, they eau easily afford to make the distribution
large as it is.
We trust that our numerous friends throughout tho
country and t anadas will use their utmost exertiom*
so that if possible, the distribution may be made soon
and it can be done if they are at all active. Ladies'
have often made excellent clnb agents for us and wa
solicit their kind efforts, which will not go unreward
ed. Let one or more euergettc persons in every town
and village in the country commence as soon us thay
see this, and get up as large a club as possible. By so
doing tnev will be the means of iutroduciDK elegant
engravings into familes, and thus aid in cultivating a
taste for the beautiful and refined.
