Musical Meeting. —There will be a rally of nil the musical people in the county held in Kelley's Church, in Dry Valley, about 5 miles from town, on Tuesday next, 2dth, under the auspices of the Mitßin Co. Musical Association. There will he an afternoon and an evening session. Every lover of the Art is invited to attend. Another Mystery in the Narrows.—On Wednesday evening last, at a late hour, a man and boy, the latter footsore and wea ry, passed down the railroad through the Narrows, and on Thursday morning the boy <>r young man was found, about two miles litis side of Patterson, lying dead on the track, one arm and the top of his head completely cut oß'. There are some cir cumstances connected with this affair which give it a suspicious character, and taking into recollection the late attempted murder a few miles west from the place where the boy was found, almost force the conviction that he was foully dealt with and then placed upon the track, where one of the trains would be sure to mutilate the victim. In the first place, the man who was with the boy ou Wednesday evening going eastward, was in Lcwistown the next day, and the rail road hands aver they did not see him re turn that day. The boy alleged to a watchman that he had been at work up the river during harvest, at $1.50 per day, and thus probably had some money, while the man's story was entirely different.— ! Both were strangers. The boy had on a i blue soldier coat, carpet slippers, and was apparently from lb to 18years old. From the number of deaths taking place on the railroad, and the facilities for robbery and murder in such wild spots like the Nar rows, we learn that it is probable the rail road company will order all foot passen gers ofi" the road between this place and Patterson. This would be no more than ri'zht, as no reason whatever exists for any person traveling on the railroad thro' that region, when the towpath and old pike on the north side of the river both furnish much better walking. Accident. —Three young ladies were thrown out of a buggy on Thursday last, while descending a very bad piece of road 011 the hill near Mr. Hoover's, in Deny township. It was badly washed, and one wheel getting in a deep rut, broke down, precipitating them forward. Becoming frghtened, they all screamed, causing the horse to run away, subsequently over turning and breaking the buggy. A young ladv from Juniata county, whose name we did not learn, had her collar bone broken, Miss Diven sprained her ancle, and Miss Ivearns had her face con siderably bruised. Dr. T. Howard Van- Valzah attended to their hurts. Drowned.—Newton, a son of Harry Gor don, was drowned in the deep hole at Freedom Iron Works on Wednesday af ternoon last. He was 8 years and 10 months old. He had seen both men and boys going in swimming at that place, and venturing too near, got beyond his depth. Home hours elapsed before his body was recovered, so that resuscitation was out of the question. Eev. Samuel A. Ort. —This young minis ter is now in our midst on a visit to his ! f relatives and friends. He preached last Sabbath morning in the Lutheran church * "'am in me jjuuieraii cnurcii and in the evening in the Presbyterian. His subjects were presented in a plain, scriptural manner, and forced upon the minds of the people with a tact and skill not often found in a speaker so young in years and experience. He is a graduate of Wittenburg College, Springfield, Ohio, and received 11is theological training from Dr. Sprecher. The masterly manner in which he discussed his subjects gives am ple evidence of much power as a rcasoner, and in connection with his pleasing man ner and presence in the pulpit, he is in a fair way to become a pulpit orator of rare ability. He will officiate in the Lutheran church 011 next Sabbath morning and evening, after which he will leave for Hagerstovvn, Md., to enter ujion the du ties as one of the Professors in the Female Setninary located there, to which he has been recently elected. While 110 doubt ( the Seminary will receive a valuable ac- j cession to its corps of teachers by the ad dition of the learning and talents he will bring to bear upon it, vet the church at large will lose one who is eminently qual ified to be useful in the active ministry. It is hoped however that he will not long remain within the walls of a seminary or co.lege as teacher, but rather obey that i higher command, " Go ye out into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature." A valuable Valley Farm is advertised at public sale in to-day's paper.

Local Antiquities.—William Beale re presented this district for three years in the Legislature, but he wasat lastdefeated, and accidents of a similar character hap : pen some folks even at this day, and in retiring from public life Mr. Beale makes| v his best bow to his constituents and re-1 (turns thanks for past favore. This part | of the programme, says the Hollidaysburg j Standard, from which we quote, is very | much neglected now-a-days by candidates j j under like circumstances, and, instead of ! returning thanks, as Mr. Beale did, and j as we presume was customary in his day, j somebody is abused and everybody I I blamed : FELLOW CITIZENS Of Mifflin County. t i I sincerely return you my thanks, for your free suffrages these three years last! ' I past, by promoting me to the honour of j 1 being one of your representatives in the) ' State legislature; and also return my; thanks to my friends, for their free votes ami suffrage at the late election for the same office: but do not mean to imply that those who voted against me are ray I enemies, except sueh of them (if any there - be) who have vilified and falsely aspersed, . and attempted to depreciate my eharac- ■ ter. And whereas, it has been propagated j I I that I am angry and much displeased at ! ; losing the election. But the following are I my real sentiments, and solutions. First, I ! that 1 have the vanity to believe, (at least ! I am conscientiously acquitted) that I have ! not deceived my trust, in any political or local question; and further particularly < consoled, that I live under agovernment, i where the people have (and I hope ever! may have) a right to freely elect whom I they please once a year. And also that the county will be at no • loss in their representatives as Messrs.; Turbett and M'Farlane, tlie successful' j candidates, are good characters and re-j publicans. And further if any improper warmth or expression has fallen from any of the citizens in support of their choice*of can didates, I do seriously recommend and j advise them, with me to agree in the true i spirit of Christianity and republicanism, I to lorgiveand harmonize with their neigh- j j hours: and also my friends with me, ! ; cheerfully to submit to the majority.

Menno Change.—l" these times, when there is something new every day, we think measures should be taken for the adop tion of a new rule in names. For in stance, how much more useful would it | be when a lady gets married, to drop the middle initial, and insert her family name. | When Harriet Beecher was married she j retained her family name thus, and is now j known throughout the worltl as Harriet j Beechcr Stowe. People would not then ! have to inquire—" Who was she before she was married" —her middle name ! would show it. We recommend to all our young ladies this change. One in town lias adopted it. Thistles are now going to seed. Cut them off on your premises. Major Elbow says that all good Chris tians, before going to church, ought al ways to turn out their hogs on the streets on Sunday mornings. A considerable quantity of coal oil was spilt along the railroad on Wednesday last between Mayes'and Granville bridg es, caused by the breaking of a ear. Some cattle were also killed and others injured on the same day. The Directors of the Middle Creek Rail road were in session yesterday, for the purpose of approving the bond of the con tractor, fixing on a final location, &c., but at the time we go to press had not decided the questions before them. The Burns Band is now undergoing a 1 course of instruction from Mr. Thomas, leader of the Huntingdon band, known as a first class musician and instructor. They practice every evening except Sat urday, and flatter themselves on being; able to appear before the public perhaps! this week. Their perseverance is com mendable. Somebody fixed Friday or Saturday night last for a meteoric display, perhaps the ghost of the great star-shower of last year; but, as heretofore, the exhibition fnilet! to come oil". Beyond an unusual number of meteors visible on Tuesday ev ening of last week, nothing was seen of the phenomenon. A handcar on the Mifflin & Centre Co. R. It. was thrown from the track near the Main street crossing, yesterday morn ing, by some stones which had probably been placed on the track by boys. All on it were thrown off and more or less hurt, Geo. Myers being the principal suf ferer.

HOOK NOTICES. "Beyond the Mississippi: A complete History of the Mew States and Territories, from the Great Hirer to the Great Ocean, by Albert D. Richardson. This is a most; entertaining ami valuable book, and its popularity is attested by the sale of over 209,000 copies in a single month. The! author's long and varied experience in the little known and interesting regions j of the Far West, furnishes the valuable ! material tor its contents. Mr. Richardson is widely known as one i of our most brilliant journalists and wri ters. No other author has traveled over! so much of our vast western domains, and we know of no one who can so well de scribe what he lias seen, lie is always , interesting, generally amusing, and, bet ter still, invariably truthful. The volume before us is accompanied i by an accurate and minute map of the en tire region beyond the Mississippi, and is elegantly printed and profusely illustra ted with over two hundred engravings! from original photographs and sketches'; from the pencils of Bierstadt, Nast, Hen nessy, Darley, Fetin, Stephens, Forbes! and other artists. Many of them are; set into the body of the text, after the! popular style of Lossing's Pictorial Field Book of the Revolution. This work, we understand, is sold only by subscription, and is just such a one as persons seeking to act as agents should | add to their list. It is published by the NATIONAL PUBLISHING CO., Philadel- O.x phi a, Pa. Dcmoresfs Monthly. —The September number of this favorite parlor periodical ' is fully equal to any of those which have preceded it. The illustrations are varied, j and brilliant as ever, and there is a tone j of freshness and originality about the en-j tire contents which contrasts remarkably | with other parlor publications. We do not wonder ladies prize it; to them it is. full of useful and interesting reading and information, besides containing many val- i uable specialites, in the way of patterns, | etc., which can begot from no other source. Three dollars per annum, with a premi um. Address, W. Jennings Demorest, 473 Broadway, New York. " The Pen and Pencil —No. Three is ! before us, containing many beautiful illus trations, among which we notice a full j | page engraving entitled, A Luxury, Lost in the Snow; with poems, etc. This new ! j paper bids fair to become a favorite, and j one of tiie most remarkable features about the enterprise, is that adopted by the en terprising publishers of distributing or returning to their patrons, $50,000 of the! proceeds, in prizes varying from $1 to ! SIO,OOO. Every person buying a single! copy, price 10 cents, or by mail 13 cents, will have an equal chance. Sold by all Newsdealers. T. It. Dawley & Co., Pub-i lishers, 21 A 23 Ann Street, N. Y. Good Stories. —Messrs. Ticknor and i Fields have issued the initial number of "Good Htories," under which title they I propose to publish, in cheap aiid attrac tive form, a valuable collection of short) stories, talcs and sketches. The need of! such a collection has been long felt; for | while numerous collections of poetry have been made, no general repertory of good . stories exists. It is not intended to limit j this collection to English literature. It will embrace, by competent translations, i v the best and most characteristic short sto ries of all languages. While having in i view the idea of making this collection : valuable as a repertory of choice fiction, the publishers have in mind the great need of the traveling public for a class of. reading that shall answer for amusement in the railcaroron the steamboat. A large I volume or a long story often becomes wear- j isouie to the traveler 011 account of the 1 i disadvantages to which lie is subjected,! while the type of many volumes renders j I the reading of them impossible to not a few travelers. In "Good Stories" all these difficulties are overcome. Each number | is a small quarto, appropriately illustrated, j i and easy to the hand ; the stories are | choice, and demand not too continuous at tention; the type large and easily read, and i the price, Fifty Cents per number, will place "Good Stories" within the reach of all. The next number will appear this month. Ticknor & Fields, Publishers, 1 Boston. s Ex-Governor David R. Porter died at ; Harris burg on the 6th, aged 79 years.
