Our Protracted Meetingr.
Our indefatigable lirtle minister, Mr-Sher
lock, is laboring nightly on the hill, and un
less we are much mistaken in the signs of
the times, his labors are about to be regar
ded with success. The meeting is largely
attended every night—the people listen very
attentively, and go away to talk and think
about religion. A general.feeliLg of solici
tude for their future welfare seems to have
taken possefsion of very many, and ev
erything indicates that a great revival is
about to take place in Bellefonte. Mr. Sher
lock is a man of wonderful energy. nis
meeting at the Springs was eminently suc
cessful, and having closed it, without allow
ing himself time for rest, be commenced bis
effort in this place.
On last Sunday evening after the conclu
sion of the regular services, Rer. John Ton
n r of this place, made a most touching allu
sion to the untimely death of the accomplish
ed young wife of our fellow townsman, John
Baxtresser, and forcibly reminded his hear
ers of the uncertainty of life. We cannot, at
this late hour, report him correctly, but .at
the time, his remasks made such an impres
sion upon us that we remembered the exact
language for many hours afterwards, and re
gret we did not then commit them to wri
ting.
He spoke, as near as wo can remember, as
follows: "My friends, how uncertain —how
very uncertain is life —in a moment we are
launched from time into eterniiy. A few
months ago, the young lady who has just
died in our midst, bade farewell to her
friends at the "Depot of the Railroad, a youth
ful, gay, aod happy bride. Now she goes
bock to meet those friends— a lifeless body.
llOw little did they think, when they last
gathered around her, wishing her joy and
long life, that she would so soon bo returned
to them stiff in the cold embrace of death.
Yet it is so—thus in life we are in the midst
of death, and in a moment when we think
not the dice falls and wo close our eyes upon
the world. Ob ! what a warning for us al
ways to be ready.
' I have often seen the passengers, when the
Cars were about leaving Philadelphia west
ward, preparing to retire for the night—leav
ing their lives, their property, and their
hopes, in the hands of the Engineer, Con
ductor, and a few brak°smen. An obstacle
upon the track, a broken rail, would dash
dotvn the train, and in a moment half its
human freight would be hurried into eterni
ty. In that cot.nec ion, my fiiends, I have
thought of this congregation— we are all pas
eengers in the great Car of life and fast hur
rying towards life's end. Are we prepared
lor accidents? Let every one ask his heart
that question, and it it answers that he is not
may God help him topiepare."
During the delivery of these remarks the
house was deathly still, every eye was fixed
upon the speaker, and the tones of his voice,
the earnesmess of his manner, and the direct
application of his language, made a profound
impression upon the heans of ali who heard
him.
Correspondence from Pine Grays.
Is, perhaps, one of the most pleasant villages
in the eounty. It numbers over two hun
dred inhabitants, and in it are located three
very neat churches, Lutheran, Presbyterian
and Methodist, the latter uf which not quite
completed, a good Academy in ruccesslul
■operation, under the supervision of Prof J'
F. Thomas. Four Ministers of the gospal
reside in the town, Rev's. Mozer and Fletcher
Lutheran, II;v. Moor, PresbyteriaD, and
Rev. Croethwaite, Methodist. Peace and
harmony prevails among the different chris
tian denominations. The ministers living
together, not onlv as neighbors, but appa
rently on terms of friendship. It was the
good fortune of your correspondent, on the
evening cf the 6th inst., to see the above
named ministers and their ladies, together
with a large company of-friends and neigh
bors, assembled at the house of Captain J.
Dunlap, who is (as you all very wed known)
one of the cleverest a.n living. The occa
sion of this meeting was to witness the mar
riage of the Captain's eldest daughter. Miss
Susan-J., to Mr. Jonathan Hess, a fine look
ing an 1 very respectable young man of this
neighborhood. The ceremony was perform
ed by the Rev. D. Moser, after which we sur
rounded the Captain's table, a description of
whioh I will not attempt. Suffice it to say,
it was loaded with an abundance of every
thing good, and taking all things together,
from the lair bride down to the moat tiny
cake, there seenrtd to be but one opinion,
that it was one of the nicest weddings we
ever attended. A GUEST.
Boys.
We have a large number of boys in
this place, and very bad boys are some ol
them, ranging from the ages of five to eigh
teen years of ege, who are permitted to run
our streets night and day, without rsstraint,
boys with parents and without parents, well
dressed toys and ragged boys, boys whose
parents cannot control them and boys whose
parents will not control them, all banded to -
gether and working in delightful concert in
all kirida of mischief and rowdyism, to the
destruction of their own morals and the an
noyance of the citizens. This habit of allow
ing boys to spend their leisure time, both
night and day upon the streets, is one that is
only productive of evil results. Under the
cover of night they acquire many evil and
pernicious habits, vulgar and profane lan
guage, obsceDe practices, criminal habits,
and a lawless and riotous bearing. We have
noticed, latoly, much bad behavior on the
part of some of our boys. We have heard
cursing, seen fighting, seen boys that are old
enough to know better, indulge in practices
that would better characterize heathen chil
dren, than those ef christian parents. How
are we going to better it ? that's the question.
Let parents and guardians ask themselves
this important question.
Out Humble Acknowledgment a.
The mer
chants of Bellefonte are all (especially those
who advertise in the Democrat ) a pretty cle
ver set of men. They have repeatedly
us under obligations to them. Wheu our
patrons are slow about paying up the
"old score," in consequence of the tightness
of the times, we can always manage to get a
little on our gentlemanly merchants.
But, Wilson & Bro's has placed us under
renewed obligations by presenting the asso
ciate Editor with one of 'Oakfords best Hats.'
The Wilson Brothers are doing a good busi
ness and deserve to be abundently sustain
ed.
And then again, (and we are so well pleas
ed that we can scarcely stop to tell our sto
ry) pur 'friend' John Tonner, just set the
whole shanty in an uproar of joyful glee, by
presenting the aforesaid associate with a first
rate coat —a magnificent coat —a bran new
coat. And how well it fits! We hope,
however that our merchant Iriends will not
fcrget there are other editors, and boys con
nected with tbis office, w.io would like to
experience the peculiar sensation that thrills
ones breast, just after having received a
handsome present. Boys you know are boys
and they can't help it. But we cannot for
the life of us see why all the honors and
presents should be lavished upon the associ
ate Editor. Well never mind we will all be
old Editors after a while, and then stand
from under. If we don't,—well if we forget,
then, to remember our friends, on the early
rem iniserces of rur fcoyhocd days, ' Let
our right hand forget her cunning, and OUT
tongue cleave to the roof of our mouth."
The firm of Tonner & Steel is one of the
strongest in our town. The store is well
filled with a variety of choice winter goods,
ar.d the clerks Messrs. Steel & Hollahan are
always at their post, accomodating obliging
and genteel. Long may the Proprietors
Ware, and may the shadows of the clerks
never grow less. See Advertisement in an
other column.
Protractod Kc -.ting.
Ou last Thursday evening
Rev. Thos. Sherlock, Pastor of the M. E.
Church, in this town commenced a protract
ed meeting. That there is need of a religious
revival in this place, certainly no one who is
acquainted in these parts will deny. The
devil keeps his churches open here, both
night and d iy and his meetings are contin
ually progressing. That the members of
his denomination are aided by the power of
the spirit may be seen by the peculiarly hap
py manner iD which they behave while sur
rounding bis altar. That his converts are
many, may be known by the state of mo
rality in our village and the large number
who bow at his shrine. That they are de
voted may be seen by their very regular at
tendance upon service, and the liberal man
ner in which they contribute on collection
occasions, towards the keeping up of their
places of worship and the support of their
principles. That the arguments of their
ministers and the example of the members
are powerfully convincing may bo known
by the fact that maDy who once were strong
in the christian faith, and faithful in the per
formance of christian duties are now to be
found attending regularly upon the service
of Satan and giving their contributions to the
support of his cause.
Jf then, tbe powers of the evil one have
so strong a hold upon the people, and exert
so great an influence upon society, it is cer
tainly right and indeed necessary, that the
minieters of the Gospel of Christ, and the
members of all Christian denominations in
our town, should use their utmost endeav
ors to overthrow the strongholds of Satan
and to advance the cause of Christianity.
Fine Grove,
General Jail Delivery-
On last Tuesday morn
ing about 2 o'clock, Louis Sherman and
three other prisoners broke jail and left for
parts unsLovvn. Sherman was confined in
a back ceil, from which he made his way by
burning out the steeple by which the door
was fastened. He then opened the door of
the front cell by means of a wooden key
which ho had made for the occaoion, being
now in the front cell he commenced digging
through the wall with a mattock and an axe
which he had brought into the cell and se
creted some time before. We are told by
one of the prisoners who was in the cell at
the time, tl ai he occupied two hours in dig
ging through the wall. After having made
a hole sufficiently large to pass through they
let themselves down by means of a cord.
Thus escaped Sherman, Rudy, ' Corn Doc
tor" and Coon. Good jail, that.
For the Ladies.
A "fishlon" writer in a
New York pansr says, "the winter bonnets
promise to be as plain as a Soaker meeting
house ; feathers and flowers will be seen as
rarely as birds on the prairie. Dark velvet
depreseu over the forehead, with almost
straight sides, plain crown, and decoration of
rich, real lace, only will be recognized as lon
by the initiated." The same writer says of
he winter goods that will be worn : "Flash
has had its day. The rainbow plaids, with
squares as large as small windows, are con
signed to oblivion, and ladies are no longer
to be seen walking the streets enclosed in
chequer work- The railroad stripes ar e
numbered with the things that were."
Good Advice.
Girls, let us tell you a stub
born truth. No youug woman ever looks so
well, to a sensible man, as when dressed in
a plain, neat, modest attire, without a single
ornament about her person. She looks then
as though she had worth in herself, and
Deeded no artificial rigging to enhance her
value. If a young woman would spend as
muoh time in cultivating her mind, training
her temper, and cherishing kindness, meek
ness, mercy, and other good qualities, as
most of them do in extra dress and orna
ments, to increase their personal charms,
she would, at a glance, be known among a
thousand —her character would be read in
her countenapce. That's so.
THCB . CEWGPIiE!
Lumber-
Ao improvement, long needed, has just
been started by Jac. V. Thomas, at the saw
mill on Cheap Side. He is engaged in saw
ing lumber, so any person who wishes a good
article can get it by calling at the mill.—
This will make a very deeded difference to
farmers and others wanting sawed lumber,
as they can now get it at any time, and take
it home as baok loading when they bring
their grain and other produce to market
thereby saving both time and expense. But
heretofore they have had to go to the lumber
regions to make their bargains, and then
there was always aD uncertainty about get
ting it delivered in time, unless they went to
the mills for it themselves.
A few months ago we did not suppose that
Bellefonte was in the lumber regions, but
seeing the saw logs coming in on the cars of
the Kail Road and unloading .them direct on
to the saw mill, really makes us believe so,
as all the lumber near the Kail Koad is as
easily got here as to the saw mills butt in
the midst cf it-
A nice Point in Law.
Some weeks ago, says
the Patriot and Union, a man named Cath
cart was tried and convicted in the Clearfield
Court for the murder of Lis wife, and sen
tenced to be hung. On Tuesday, 11. Bucher
Swope, E q , one of Cathcart's attorney's, ar
rived in this city, and obtained from Gen.
Miller, Prothonotary, a writ to take the case
to the Supremo Court, where it is Mr.
Swope's intention to test the right of a Gov
ernor to Bign and issue a death warrant.—
The cour:e below will probably wait with
anxiety to see what arguments will be intro
duced, and their merits fur ingenuity. If
Mr. Swope convinces the Supreme Court that
the Governor has no right to issue the little
document which sends men to the other side
of Jordan, he will have achieved a much
greater name and reputation than any man
in the Pgal profession.
A Noyel Wedding - .
On Wednesday last, says
the Tyrone' Star, Win. Burley, Esq., of that
city, riveted a couple in the boly bonds of
matrimony, under singular circums'ances. —
He received word that they would be on the
accommodation train, going west, with the
request that he would wait at the station.
Upon the arrival of the train, the worthy
Justice entered the car in which the happy
couple were, and to the utter astonishment
of the passengers, immediately proceeded
with the marriage ceremony. The good-na
tured and accommodating conductor, Capt.
Cremer, kindly waited until the last word
was spoken, and then with an "all right—go
ahead," and a snort from the fiery horse,
started the newly married pair on their jour
ney through life.
MARRIED^
On the 6tb inst., by the Rev. D. Mosser,
Mr. Jonathan Hess, to Miss Susan J., eldest
daughter of Capt. Jas. Dunlap, all of Piue
grove, this county.
With the above notice we received a most
excellent cake. Peace and happiness will
most assuredly accompany this couple - thro'
life, for such is always the case with those
who remember the Printer.
