Natural Curiosity—Many passengers through the Narrows below this place, on t l, e p. R. R. no doubt fail to observe a ] Hr ov rock about half way up the moun taia. jii~t above the division house, about 6 miles down, which nature has carved into the form of a soldier standing on picket, in the act of peeping around a rock, as if listening, his cap, coat, knap aai-k, and other appurtenances being well defined, the whole forming a giant statue of life-like appearance. Fourth of July passed ofr quietly here, if we except the usual firing of pistols, crackers, fcc. by Young America. Some eiodit picnics were held in differentgroves, ncurlv all of which received a drenching from the heavy storm of the afternoon. Some of our citizens attended the dedica tion services at Altooua. Some drunk ards were on the streets, and one little scuttle composed the riotic (without Pat) j, art of the day, and the town was gaily decorated with two flags. fryy Our young pastoral friend John Henderson, who has been absent for live: years, now holding a charge in Indiana, l,as returned to sojourn a week or two at his old home.

Death of Rev. J. P. Swanger. —We re gret to learn that Rev. J. P. Swanger, formerly of this county, died suddenly, after a brief illness, in Baltimore. He wa lneinherof the East Baltimore Con ference of the M. E. Church, and stood high in the estimation of all who knew hi n. At the time of his decease lie was jo-tor of the Grecumont Avenue Chapel, jn Baltimore city. His body was em balmed, and passed here on Monday, on the way to Milesburg, Centre county, where it was buried. Repairs. —McAtee's Lewistown Mill is now in process of renovation and im provement on an extensive scale, nearly the whole interior having been denuded of machinery to make room for the work men. The extent of this establishment, now that an entire Hour can be taken in at a glance, is far more apparent than at any time since it was put up by John Sterrett, and this is esjiecially the case on tiie lower lloor, where what constitutes the water way is exposed to view eigh teen or twenty feet below. Here work men are engaged in doing the neces sary work for the reception of four "Tur bine wheels"—generally considered the best and most powerful wheel ever invent ed—which are to replace the old wooden ones. The strength of the Turbine wheel may be inferred from the fact that a stream of water running through an inch pi[e is sufficient to drive a power printing press, which fact was proved at (if we ree- j olieet aright i Hartford, Connecticut, du ring the past year. When re-modeled, the machinery will no doubt represent all the latest improvements, and enable the proprietors to turn all the wheat in the neighborhood into a first class article of the staff of life. An Heir. —Several weeks since we pub lished an article relative to the "Johns fortune." Mrs. Kauffman, an elderly la dy of this place, being able to trace her lineage in that direction, has written sev eral letters, addressed to parties mention ed in the above named article, but has not received very satisfactory answers as to their own claims to the estate, so that not much information could be given as to her connection with it. The matter no il uibt will be more thoroughly investiga ted.

By the by, what has become of the String Band,: an association that used to furnish the 1 best kind of music? Quite an excitement was created after j our last issue by an attempt to arrest Har ry Spriggle, who was said to he in a house in town. Constable Miller, with a party of assistants, watched the house the greater part of the night, but towards daylight , Spriggle escaped through it is said the I connivance of the inmates. The matter will probably result in a suit at court. Harry, a little son of Win. H. Keller, had his foot badly burnt on Wednesday last by inadvertently leaving the path and walking into a pile of hot ashes which had been thrown out of the engine room of the big tannery. He was bare footed at the time. Mr. Keller had his finger burnt on the evening of 4th, while engaged in letting off fireworks for the amusement of liis children. A considerable quantity of hay was safe ly housed in the beginning and up to the middleof last week, during which time the weather was warm, with fine breezes— the thermometer ranging from 88 to 93 at 3p. m. On Wednesday a heavy thunder, storm passed over the valley portion of the county and then through Decatur, ; from which large hail fell in some quar ters, and on Thursday evening another storm, with torrents of rain, paid its com pliments to quite a number of picnicers, i who were caught in all directions, both on land and water. Since then we have had storms and showers almost daily. Neighboring Counties. A neighbor informs the LewisbureM Chronicle that two trees, remarkable on i account of age, were recently cut and split into staves, in West Buffaloe. One! on the property ot John Edleman, was i 80 yea is old when America was discovered; the other, on the property of B. Thomp-i son, M. I)., 66 at that period. The age! was calculated by the annual circles. A son of Philip Herbster, of Beaver) township, Snyder county, in company! with other boys, was playing with thej rope attached to a patent hay-fork. His! feet became entangled while the boys were j pulling at the other end, which elevated j him a considerable distance, from whence j lie fell ujion his head, receiving severe ! injury. The German Reformed Church at New Bloom field, Perry county, was struck by I lightning on Monday evening a week.! No serious damage was sustained. Jno. Read's store at Huntingdon was; considerably injured by some benzine ta li ing fire in the cellar. Wm. Fenteman, i in endeavoring to get out a barrel of alco- j hoi, made a narrow escape from being burnt to death by its bursting and taking fire. His arms and legs were badly burnt. A young lady named Miss Jennie Ru pert/about sixteen years of ago, residing near Mill Creek, met with her death a few weeks ago by getting a piece of glass ; in her throat at a party. It is supposed to have fallen from a dish, and adhered to the bread wliile she was spreading it. Horrible Murder in Indiana County. — The peaceful community in the village of Washington, Canoe township, says the; Indiana Democrat, was startled on Mon day last by the commission of a cool and deliberate murder perpetrated by an old and respectable citizen, ujion the person of his own son-in-law. The murderer is Nicholas Vandevinder, and his victim: John B. Bowers. It appears that some time ago Vandevinder divided his prop-) erty between his two sons-in-law, the de ceased John B. Bowers and Eli NI i 1 lor, with the understanding that Bowers, who; had got the home farm, was to keep him during his life. Lately Vandevinder be came dissatisfied with his treatment, nl-j leging that lie was persecuted and treated harshly by Bowers and his family. This at length so preyed upon his mind that he formed a deliberate purpose to kill Bowers. On Monday morning last, after Bowers had left the house and gone to a field a j short distance off, accompanied by his: two little sons, for the nurposeof plowing corn, Vandevinder coolly and deliberate ly loaded his rifle, a most formidable look ing instrument of death, and followed him. Concealing himself in a fence cor ner Vandevinder waited until Bowers passed him, when hiking deliberate aim he shot him down, the ball entering his left side and killing him instantly. The murderer ran away, but was soon after captured and brought to Indiana, where he was committed to jail. The cops of Juniata have nominated the following ticket: State Senator—Ezra D.

On the Evening of the Fourth, the " Young American Society" gave an en tertainment in the "Old Brick Church," which did themselves credit, and fitly cel ebrated the nation's greatest anniversary. A large and appreciative audience assem bled, notwithstanding the heavy rain that had fallen an hour before. The following was the orderof exercises: Prayer, by Rev. J. M.

These performances were all creditable and befitting the occasion. Especial praise is due to the Glee Club of Belleville, for their very excellent singing, adding as it did so much to the interest of the evening. The meeting adjourned with three cheers for the good " did Flag." SPECTATOR. [Communicated.] HOPEWELL, Bedford Co., Pa., ) June 3d, 1867. j MESSRS.

The beautiful Piano Fortes of GROVKSTEKX i Co.are deemed by all good judges to be the Ultima Thulc of instruments of the kind. We cannot suggest what is wanting to make a mu sical instrument more perfect, although we are slow to admit that the limit of improvement can ever bo attained. Before they had brought their Pianos to their pre sent excellence, they had submitted them to compe tition with instruments of the best makers of this country and Europe, and received the reward of mer it, over all others, at the celebrated World's Fair. It is but justice to say that the judgment thus pronouueed has not been overruled by the musical world. Still, by the improvements lately applied by tliem to their Pianos, it is admitted that a more perfect in strument has been made. They have accordingly achieved the paradox of making excellence more excellent. Surely, after this, they are entitled to the motto ••Excelsior." uovl-l-ly ITCH ! ITCH ! ITCH ! SCRATCH ! SCRATCH !
