LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
The Fourth of July 1861.
Independence day
has for a life time been the great national
festival of the American people ; ever since
the meeting of that noble band of patriots
who assembled to declare tbe s Independence
of the colonies, this day has been held in joy
ous remembrance, and its apptoacb never
fails to arouse the patriotism of every Amer
ican heart. From that glorious—that ever
memorable 4tb of July 1776 until the pres
ent time, this day has been enjoyed in our
land as the grand gala day of tho year. —
Never before has our country presented a
scene on this anniversary, such as will be
beheld on the eoming 4tb. On its annual
approach it has ever found the hearts of the
American people beating in unisoD, from
the lakes to the gulf—from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. It has ever found the Banner
of the Free floating proudly at every point
and strong arms and willing hearts to uphold
and defend that flag. It has ever found the
Constitution and the Laws honored and obey
ed in all the land. How changed the scene!
When the sun of the 4fh of July 1861 shall
rise, its rays will shed light upon a scene thl
like of wbioh it never beheld. Acountry rene
and torn bleeding and mangled ;that proud
banner trailed in the dust and trampled upon
by traitors; that Constitution and those laws
dishonored and disregarded. In view of the
condition of affairs the coming anniversary
should be celebrated as it never has been be
fore. In every city and county where trea*
son does not oppose and forcibly prevent it,
whether in the North or South, the entier
population who are resolved to stand
by the Union and live and die under the
stars and stripes, should be gathered to
gither for suoh a celebration as our fathers
loved. If the loyal citizens of the United
S:ates unite in one grand celebration all
over and thus manifest their devo
tion to the country, it will have an untold
effect. While it will cheer up the hearts of
those brave men who have volunteered in
the defense of the Union, it will also send a
thunder-stroke to the black, corrupt hearts
oLtraitors, who are seeking to overthrow our
government. Let us, then prepare tc cele
brate the 4:h of July as it has never been
celebrated before. The Rebels have resolved
not to observe this anniversary hereafter,
we suppoee, for the sake of consistency. It
becomes us, however, who are still loyal, lib
erty lovingcitia.ua of the United States, to
honor this as the Nation's Day.
What say the people of Centre couuty ?
Shall we have a grand Mass Celebration ?
We have beeu convinced since the outbreak
of the war that there is no lack of patriot
ism among the people of our county. Let
us evince our patriotism by engaging <n this
matter zealously. Let there be no Subbatb-
Sebool celebrations, no Public School cele
brations, no pnlitioal celebrations ; hut let
us have one grand patriotic celebration—not
a village celebration, nor a township celebra
tion ; but a county celebration, at some con
venient place, if in Bellefonte, so be it ; J
not here some place else.
Audacious Attempt at Robbery.
An
attempt was made, on Tuesday night last,
between twelve and one o'clock, to perpetrate
a robberry on the residence of Mr. John
Bayard, on Spring street, near the Presby
terian church. His wife, who was alone at
the time, succeeded in arousing the neigh
bors, upon the appearance of whom the
villains beat a hasty retreat before they had
accomplished their nefarious undertaking.
Mr. Bayard having been engaged in the
lightning rod business at one time, had in
his possession a sett of superior ladders,
and for the double purpose of presering
them from thieves and the weather, had
placed them under the rear of his dwelling,
closing the opening between yhe floor and
ground with boards which were firmly nailed.
In order to secure Ehqgjgfldcrs it was neces
sary to remove these- and in doing
so the noise occasjSped foereby awoke Mrs.
Bayard. Whether the object of
was simply to obtain possession mF these
ladders for their intrinsic worth,ror that
they might facilita e the accomplishment
some more extensive felonious enterprise it
is very difficult to determine. They were
plainly seen by persons tffsictoig on the oppo
site side of tiifeagtat, and aJP said to have
had a small con6ekled.light with them. Sus
picion rests upon certain parties, but DO
arrests have been made.— Watchman.
Anonymous Notices.
During last week sev*
eral notices were posted in different places'
in town notifying the colored people to leave
immediately. These notices were signed
'many citizens' but were, of course, stuck up
by some wag 'spilen for fun.' There are
some colored people in this town who are
honest and industrious, who earn their bread
by the sweat of their brow ; this portion of
them should be protected by law and per
mitted to remain among us. There are
a number of colored persons, however, who
are too lazy to do anything but steal and lay
around the corners. This class should be
forced to emigrate, before the hot weather
oomea, for —whew I The above is the sen*
timent of a large number of our citizens, and
while the industrious portion of this people
have nothing to fear, these lazy, lounging,
theiving ra?cals must reform or oar citizens
may take decided action in their case.

From Rebersburg.
From & letter written by
a gentleman in Rebersburg, we get the fol
lowing particulars concerning the death and
burial of- Charleß Eb Winter:
The deceased was a son of Mr. Samuel
Winter, was born June 26th 1844. He left
home on the 22nd of April, joined the Curtin
Guards at Camp Curtin, for three months
servioe, and subsequently at Camp Slifer,
only a few days prior to bis death, he en
listed for the term of three years. He took
sick at Camp Slifer on the 20th of May, was
taken to the Hospital in Chambersburg.—
He died on the evening of the 21st. His dis
ease was "Purpura." E. J. Burkert and
Simon Spangler, both of Miles. twp., and
members of the same company, had his re
mains placed in a metallic coffin, and start—
with tbem for Rebersburg, where they ar
rived on the morning of the 23rd at 7 o'clock.
The funeral took place at four o'clock in
the evening, and was attended by a military
company under command of Gen. Buchanan>
the Union Sabbath School, of which the de
ceased was formerly an officer, and a larger
number ofoitizens than ever eonvened in the
village before. The deceased was an exem
plary member of the M. E. Church. Rev.
DeMoyer effieiated as minister on the occa
sion, but a most remarkable incident occur
red, interupting the ceremonies- The hody
bad been placed in the grave, the mourning
friends bad listened to the dull, painfursound
of the falling earth, and with sad hearts and
tearful eyes turned from the grave and re
paired to the sanctuary to hear the word of
the Lord. The hymus bad been sung and
a prayer offered. The man of God arose in
his place, the stillness of death pervaded the
house ; he announced his text, and scarcely
had the last words escaped his lips when the
wild cry fire ! fire ! I broke in upon thfc still
ness and solemnity of the the occasion.—
Consternation and confusion filled the house.
The congregation made a rush for the door
and soon reached-the scene of the conflagra
tion. The house of Mrs. Young was on fire
and the flames spreading with astonishing
rapidity soon caught the school bouse. Thes 6
two building were consumed, and it was on
ly by the exertion of the large number of
people present that the surrounding build
ings were saved from the same fate. The
funeral sermon will be preaohed at another
time,
George 11. Burkert.
It becomes our sad
duty to record the death of this young man.
He came to this office as an apprentice about
two years and a half ago. During the en.
tire time be remained us he provetj
himself to bo worthy and industrious, and
always took pride in performing every duty
required at his hand, and ever received in
struction with thankfulness. When the call
was made tor volunteers he was one of the
first to enroll his name. He went with the
Fencibles, was with them during their stay
at Camp Curtin, at Cockeybville and finally
at Camp Scott. It was at this point that he
took sick. He was taken to the hospital
where be lay sick for about two weeks and
expired on the morning of the 30th ult. His
disease was infiamation of the brain. His
father was present u his death, and started
home with his remains immediately. He ar
rived at Rebersburg on the following morn
ing. On Saturday morning he was buried
with military honors. The entire population
of the surrounding neighborhood appeared
be present to do the last honors to the re
mains of their young friend. As we followed
in the procession and listened to the solemn
rolling of the muffled drum, we thought how
many poor fellows would be followed in like
manner to their last resting place, before
the close of this war. Poor George was the
first of the Fencibles to die in tire'service of
his country. Who will be the next ? God
only knows!
Tribute of Respect.
At a meeting of tbe
members of the Bellefonte Brass Band, held,
at their room on the evening of the first of
June inst., tbe following preamble and reso
lutions were unanimously adopted ;
WHEREAS, Geo. II- Burkert, a member of
this Band, baviDg volunteered in the service
of his country, and after baviag been in tbe

CAMP CURTIN, HARRISBURG, PA.
Dear Si&ter :
I left home with no intention of
entering the army, but I met Capt. Stover,
in Belletonte, on Court Week, and he want
ed men for his company, and I enlisted.
I concluded the came of Lucas should never
be disgraced, that the Stars aDd Stripes must
be sustained and the government maintain
ed in spite of Southern rebels. We are fight
tng for Liberty and the rights of man, for
ihe right to speak, think and vote as we
please. For this our fathers fought, this
they handed down to us, and dear Sister,
so help me God I will never return home un
til the old Flag is vindicated and the South
ern rebels and nigger drivers, are compelled
to lay down their arms and once more be
come loyal citizens. Our cause is a right
eous cause. I may fall in battie ; but if so
it will be in the defence of the poor man's
rights, in the Jefence of human liberty.—
Pray for me and keep me in holy remem
brance. And rest assured, that I will nev
er disgrace the name of Lucas, Father
fought with the gallant Perry on Lake Erie,
he gamed honor and a name for the family
that your brother will never disgrace. I
came to fight and I will fight. { want no
settlement of this thing until negro slavery
is wiped out forever and the nabobs of the
South are taught that it is dangerous bu
siness to rebel against the old Stars and
Stripes. I am well, in good spirits and
"spilen for a fight." The Snowshne boys are
all well. Your Affectionate Brother.

ANCIENT JERUSALEM.
A LARGE AND BEAUTIFUL
ISO METRICAL, PICTURE
OF JERUSALEM
AND THE SACRED PLACES
AS THEY APPEARED N ANCIENT TIMES.
THE above work is commended to the favora
ble notice of clergymen, and those haying
charge of Sunday-schools, B.ible-classea., r.ndpub
lic institutions.
It is about nine feet long and six feet wide, col
ored and varnished, and mounted on canvass with
rollers.
It has been constructed from the mest reliable
and authentic sources, and will be found an iu
valua'-ilo aid to those eng iged iu lecturing on the
Holy land, or imparting instruction to school
classes on tho subject to which it refers,
It aims to git ean exact id-a of the city as it
appeared in ancient times. It is taken as a 'birds
eye' or'balloon' view, the beholder being, in im
agination, placed at a considerable elevation, so
as to take a comprehensive view of the city and
of tho whole coun:ry for some distance around.
The view is accompanied with an Outli Kov,
in which the different localities are numbered,
and a-descriptive manual containing'all the in
formation necessary to enable one to use the view
to an vantage in teaching op lecturing.
THE SUNDAY-SCHOOL TIMES,
rills is a Weekly Religiuui Papef, published
at the very low priof of
ONE DOLLAR A TEAR.
It is designed for Parents, Teachers, and all
Who are engaged or interested in the religious
of the young. It is also an excellent Fain
ily Paper.
A portion of the Sunday School Times is occu
pied with NARRATIVES and other matter par
ticularly interesting to young persous. Teachers
will find ia it much that thoy will like to read
to their classes—interesting matter prepared :o
their hands, and such as they cannot find else
whet e. For the same reasons, members of Bib'e
classes, andoldor scholars generally, will be great
ly benefitted hy the perusal of this paper.
The Sunday School Times has every week a re
port of the choisest m-itter, selected from the
NOON PRAYER-MEETINGS, which are so in
teresting to all classes of Christians.
Besides a large amount of general religious in
telligence, the Sunday - School Times containes all
the most recent Sunday-school news. It reports
all important CONVENTIONS of Sunday-schqal
teachers. It discusses the questions which most
interest and perplex teachers and parents, respect
i g the various methods Of religious training for
the young, the. means of gaining the attention and
the affections of children, and especially of secur
ing their converscn and bringing them to Christ.
The subject of MISSION-SCHOOLS for cities,
and of Sunday-school missionary work for the in
terior, is thoroughly canvassed. Indeed, there is
hardly a topic of practical importance to any who
are interested in the subject of religious education,
which is not here brought under consideration
frora week to week.
The conductors of this paper endeavor to re
member that the great end of all Christian effort is
to bring men to Christ. They aim, accordiaglv,
to pet into every number of the paper something
which shall have for its direct object the, conver
sion of souls.

DR. J. 0. ATER; Sir, I cheerfully Comply with the re
quest of your agent, ami report, to you some of the effect*:
I hav realized with your
I have cured with it, iu my practice, most of tho com
plaints for which it is leconipiended, and have found its
effects truly wonderful in the c\\re of Venereal and Mer
curial Disease. One of my patients had Syphilitic ulcers
lu his throat, which were consuming his palate and the
top of his mouth. Yopv Sarsaparilla, steadily taken,
cured him in five weeks. Auothcr was attacked by sec
ondary Symptoms in his nose, and the ulceration had
oaten away a considerable part of it, so that I believe tho
(iisprder would soon reach his brain and kill him. But it
yielded to my administration of your Sarsaparilla'; the
ulcers healed, and he is well again, not of course without
some disfiguration to his face. A woman wlo had been
treated for the same disorder by mercury was suffering
from this poison in her bones. They had become so sen
sitive to tho weather that on a damp day she suffered ex
cruciating pain in her joints and hones. £be, too, was
cured entirely by your Sarsaparilla in a few weeks. I
know from its formula, which your agent gave iue, thaw,
this Preparation from your laboratory must be a great
remedy; consequently, these truly remarkable result®
with it have not surprised me.
Fraternally yours, G. V. LARIMER, M. P.

DR. J. C. AVER: Sir, 1 have been ulllicted with a pain
ful chronic Rheumatism for n long time, which baffled the
skill of physicians, and stuck to me iu spite of all the
remedial could find, until I tried your Sarsaparilla. One
bottle cured me in two weeks, and restored my general
health so much that I am fur better than before*l was
attacked. 1 think it u wonderful medicine. J. FKEAM.
Jules Y. Getchell. cf St. Louis, writes: "I have been
afflicted for years with nu affection of the. Liver, which
destroyed my health. I tried every thing, and every thing
furled to relieve me; and 1 have been a broken-down man
for some years from no other cause'tiim derangement of
the Liver. My beloved pastor, the Rev. Mr. Kspj, advised
rae to try your Sarsaparilla, because ho said lie knew yon,
aud any thing you made was worth trying. By the bless
ing of God it has cured me, and lias so purified my blood
as to make a new man of mo. I feel young again. The
best that cun be said of you is oot half good euough."

This is a remedy so universally known to surpass any
other for the cure of throat and lung complaints, thut it
is useless here to publish the evidence of its virtues. Its
unrivalled excellence for coughs and colds, and Its truly
wonderful cures of pulmonary disease, have made it
known throughout tlie civilized nations of the earth.
Few are the c< mmunities, or even families, among them
who have not some personal experience of its effects
some living trophy iu their midst of its victory over the
subtle and dangeroVis disorders of the throat and lunge.
AH all know the dreadful fatality of these disorders, and
as they know, too. the effects cf this remedy, we need not
do more than to assure them that it has now all the vir
tues that it did have when making the cures which havo
won so strongly upon the confidence of mankind.
