•j* j3a a 2 3?? 3 a LOCAL AFFAIRS. fire Crackers.— This dangerous and ill timed practice has already been eomrnen , ~.j by hoys and girls who might find bet ter use for the money invested than in such miserable pastime. The great fire, r Portland, Maine, which destroyed mil-, lions of property, had its origin in a fire rr uker, and ought to be a warning toev-j ,rv city, town and village in the United -nites to prohibit the practice. Here the 4tli of July has been yielded to it, but on j 81 other days it is not only prohibited by j ordinance, hut by aetof Assembly, which j imposes a tine of five shillings for each ; ofli-'iH'c, or two days' imprisonment, and j pot only makes it the duty, but requires a ll constables, under a penalty of twenty] shillings, having any knowledge of any offences against said act, to return the same. If we must have this nuisance at all, let it be on the 4th, and on that day j only. Middlccreek Eailroad.—The amount of subscriptions yet required to tlie stock of the Midtlleereek Railroad, is about forty or forty-live thousand dollars; but addi tional .subscriptions are continually made along the line, and the prospect is very good that the full amount will soon be realized. The work of finally locating the road commenced last week, and the engineer and bis corps are now at work. The Sclinsgrove Times says Major John Cummings has lieen at work for several' dnvs and secured in that town and vicini t vim additional subscription of 111 shares or $5,550, and 80 conditional shares or >1,500 — total l il shares or $7,050. Sed Men.— Mattawaua Tribe, No, 71, was organized on Taursday evening, June 20tii, 1V,7, at McVeytown, by Great Sa chem, J. V. Madeira, and Chief of Rec-j olds, Andrew J. Baker, of Philadelphia. The Tribe was organized with quite a number of members, and the Great Offi cer-wore assisted by about 88 members of j Omrpatonga Tribe, No. 67, of Lewistown, and some 10 or 12 from Iroquois Tribe. : No. 42. of Mifilintown.

Stolen Horse Recovered.—On Thursday a week, a young man put up at the Mount Union Hotel, with a horse and buggy He succeeded, says the Mt. Union Times, in trading the buggy to Wm. Bice, the livery man at the hotel, for a watch val ued at $lO, and then disappeared, leaving the horse behind. Suspicion at once arose that the property was stolen, and Mr. Shaver advertised it as such. It was soon ascertained that a reward of fifty dol lars was offered for the recovery of a horse and buggy answering the description of ;'.lis, which had been hired from a Mr. Una, who keeps a livery stable in New port, and which had not been returned. Mr. Zinn was accordingly notified, and] ■ a Monday he eanie there, identified the property, and paid the reward. The] young man was unknown, and has flown j to otlier (Times, probably to repeat his ras oints, the increased business 1 jairing hi- constant attention at home, has all the latest improvements in -try, i y which he is enabled tooper "ii teeth without those painful resorts •' used to render all extraction asubjeet ' ,- ad. lwiiesand gentlemen will iiud ■-•ue at iiis establishment, near the I 1-LOU Hotel a FRAGRANT To 11, FT - !

Last week Mr. Bulk's roost was di vested of two line hens, whose heads he! found in the alley not far from the coop.] Suspicion attaches the theft to certain par ties, who may be caught up if they follow chicken stealing as a business. About half a dozen picnics have been held in the past three weeks. To-mor-j row the Mendelsohn Association go to] Creighton's grove, at Yeagertown, toen-j joy themselves for the day. Good singing] in the open air is one of the delightful features of the picnics held by this body. ] J. B. Selheimer has erected an awning in front of his tin and hardware estab lishment in Market street, which will! serve as a specimen for others. The posts are of iron, and the top of flooring boards j covered with tin, making it neat in ap pearance, durable, and ornamental. Instrumental music lias au agreeable' sound to most ears, hut new* beginnersj blowing all the notes of alto, flat, sharp] and base for two or throe mortal hours in an evening, is rather whaugdoodleish.—] The prayer of ail Third street, from Main to Wayne, is, that tiie Baud will soon be] enabled to play "The girl I left behind me," or "O'er the hills and far away." There is a great deal of complaint about the transmission of letters containing re mittances going east. That there is a thief, perhaps two or three, either on the cars or else in one of the otHces between this and Philadelphia, hardly admits of a doubt. The P. M. at Philadelphia we think would do well by looking after] those who have access to the mail bags from this direction. Quite a number of persons, black and white, were drunk on the streets on Sat urday and Saturday night, and in the evening a regular fight took place in the western end. No arrests, so far as we can learn, were made in consequence of these outrages. The late law relative to drunk enness, under which the party can be made to tell where they got the liquor, and which also makes it the duty of olfi cers to arrest such parties, is a good one, and a few examples would probably have! the effect of essentially lessening the evil. At Harrishurg, we judge from the papers,! the law against drunkenness is rigorous- ] Iv enforced. A two-days' expedition to Licking i Creek last week resulted in the capture of - a number of fine trout. On our return home however we found the fourth stock freight, to which a passenger car is at tached, one of the uncertain things, the| third having smashed up live cars above! Anderson's and thus prevented the train we were waiting on from making time by some hours. We accordingly footed it from Granville station and reached; home about half past ten at night.— Another party, which was over the great er part of the week, also met with sue cess, but from all accounts had a woful time in going, staying and coming, dif ferent ones having got lost and spent the, night with little to eat in the woods away ] from camp.

Samuel Goodman, a brakeman, while engaged in coupling cars at Birmingham ] on Monday a week, had his thumb mash !ed so badly as to require amputation, which operation was successfully perform ed by Dr. D. Miller. The barn, on the farm of Wm. S eel, in Huntingdon county, was lately de stroyed by fire. The fire was communi cated to the building by some children who were engaged in burning a wasp i nest. An infant five or six weeks o'd was left jat a hotel in Mil! Creek by a young wo man who arrived in the cars and then disappeared. It was taken in charge by a family in the neighborhood. The Johnstown Tribune says:—A beau tiful bov of thirteen summers, named Foster, the only child of his parents, who reside in the First Ward, was killed near one of the Cambria Iron Co.'s ore mines, on Tuesday evening last, by falling be ] tweell a couple of heavily laden cars when in motion. He was shockingly mangled, and died in a few hours. We have seldom ] recorded a more painful occurrence. Fire in Dudley. —A fire occurred in Dudley, this county, on Friday morning ! last, about one o'clock. It originated in the tin shop of Mr. Haffley, and commu nicated to Michael MeCabe's bouse, for merly used as a hotel, Matthew Dunn's ■grocery store, and two other buildings, all of which were burned to the ground, the town having no engine to extinguish the tlames. The tire is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary. The loss is estimated at several thousand dol lars. MeCabe and Dunn were insured in the companies represented by R. A. Mil ler A Co., 1 nsurance Agents of this place. —Huntingdon Globe. Home Again. —We had the pleasure of taking by the hand, on Friday last, our old-time friend, Capt. ( has. A. Whi Ma ker, who has spent the past year in Colo rado. lie was unfortunate during his sojourn in that country, having had both his feet frozen so badly that amputation became necessary in order to save his life. One-foot is ofi at the instep, and the other at the heel. During last winter he, in company with two or three friends, started <>u a hunting expedition on the plains with the view of spending five or six weeks in camp. After having prepared their camp they started out in search of game, each one taking a different direc tion. Early in tlnyinorning,Capt. \\ hit laker observed a herd of deer in the dis tance, and immediately started in pursuit. He followed them until sundown, when in* thought about returning to camp, lie started, Ont was unable to find it, and was c impelled to wander through the snow until lie was unable to proceed further, when he caught Ids arms around a small tree, and made tip his mind to die in that position, lint fortunately for him, in a sew hours afterwards, a settler discovered him, and carried him on his bark to his raiiehe, which was about two miles dis tant, where lie was properly eared for. lie gives a glowing account of < olorado, and it is liis intention to return there next spring.
