—The loud noise that was heard on Sun

by the falling of huge pile* of stone* near |

if the accident had occurred on a week

disastrous.
—lf any of our business men have reach
ed irfection in their occupation it is cer
tainly the grocery firm of 8. A. Brew <k
Son. No store could ho kept more aerup- 1
ulously clean ; no good* could be arranged
to better advantage. It is fast becoming
the favorite trading place for people all
over Centre county.
—Tho temperaturo of August during
tho first half of the month, according to'
good authority, will bo about as warm as
it usually is at that timo of tho year. But
during tho latter part of the month ex
extremes of temperature may be expected.
One day it will he hot and the next day
cold, so keep your overcoat and linen
duster within reach.
—Do not let your teams stand on tho
crossings, especially on such days as last
Saturday, when it was very unpleasant to
walk around in the mud. A U>am stood
on the crossing on Allegheny street near
tho Diamond, on that day at non, and
every one who wished to cross the street
was compelled to go to the next crossing
or wade through the mud.
—Unless you intend to (MM the persons
walking beforo you on the street, it is not
polite to walk near them. If you intend
to walk at the same pace they do it is
proper to allow a separating distance of
about one yard and to approach no nearer.
This is required for several reasons—prom
inent among which are that you may not
interrupt conversation, and that you may
not be guilty of the awkwardness of kick
ing their boeis, a* has often been done, and
which we can tell from experience is un
pleasant for the unfortunate heels.
—-It limy not Im generally known that
Lewi* Houseal, tho senior proprietor of
tlio Urockorhotf House, U ono of tin-oldest
hotel men in-the country. Away back in
I8W) tho stiil wnrt, muscular lumberman
who thrended tho devious find tortuous
ways of tho Hiisi|iiehnniiii, found shelter
beneath the hospitable roof of the Swim
Hotel, in Marietta, where this veteran
caterer to the public kept tho best "tavern,"
according to tradition, that ever held its
own on tho hanks of Pennsylvania's ureal
inter-river. Jn 1 Mtil we lliul Mr. Ilouseal
in charge of the Railroad House in tho
snmo place. For seventeen years ho stood
in the door of this hotel and hid his guests
welcome to tho cheer he always kept in
store for them. The great lumber buyers
from Now York, Now Jersey mid Dela
ware made Houseal's Hotel their head
quarters. Hero they bought at "a good
round" price the timber that came from
away up at tho head of navigation, and
carried with them to tho Chesapeake the
liveliest recollection of the good and tooth
some viands that Mr. llnuml'i better-half
served up for them, lie was the second
proprietor "f the Hrockerhotf House, after
it wim built, and leaving there took charge
of the Montour House, in Lock Haven.
Returning to Itcllefonto, ho is once more
to be found as ono of tho proprietor* of
iiellefonte's big up-town hotel. Altogeth
er his career as a hotel man is remarkable,
covering, as it does, tho span of a genera
tion. It might be proper to say in this
connection that much of Mr. liouseal s
success in hi* profession is due to the inde
fatigable and untiring energy of his wife,
who is justly esteemed a* ono of the best
landladies whoever presided over the cul
inary department of a hotel.
—Tuesday last was what is known to
the Jews as the Feast of Ab, which is kept
in commemoration of the destruction of
tho first temple by Nebuchadnezzar and
of the second temple by Titus. In the
synagogue* they chanted the Lamenta
tions of Jeremiah and listened to the
mournful chapters which relate how
their once great stronghold was destroyed
and lost t<> them. Since (he proscriptions
under which they once lived have been re
moved in Kngland and this country this
mournful feast has not been so generally
observed a* wiy formerly the case.
—The Presbyterian festival last week
may tie briefly described as "perfect" in
every particular. The room was tasteful
ly decorated, the edible* were such as a
Kmperor might roll with pleasure on his
tongue and desire to tate again, and the
sweet and blushing maiden* who presided
—well, they were just so bewitching that
when one entered it was almost inflexible
to leave again. Hut the principal fact
U|>on which they can congratulate them
selves it that tho receipts amounted to
about fifty dollars.
—Prof. J K. Grumbrecht, who, during
last winter, very satisfactorily filled the
position of Professor of Languages at the
|>opular Academy at this place, started
last week on an extendtd lour in Europe.
Ho will 1> absent six or seven months, and
the universal wish of his friends in regard
to him is that he may enjoy "bon voyage.'■
Mr. E. M. Mc Fad den and wife of
Shelbyville, Ind., arrived at tho Hush
House on Tuesday. Mr. M, was once
quite familiar with this county, but has
not been here for the last twenty years, and
the change which has taken place in that
interval doubtless seems to him consid
erable.
—All passengers riding on the Pennsyl
vania railroad hereafter are requested to
enter at the rear end of the car and depart
from tho front end. The only exception to
this rule is in the rase of a "dead head"
who endeavor* to steal a ride. His exit
will generally be made at the toe of the
conductor's boot.
—The funeral of Mr*. Ann Hrown, wife
of our friend, Mr. Charley Hrown, who
died on Tuesday morning last at 3 o'clock,
will take place this morning at 19 o'clock.
She was a Miss Ann Hradley and leavoi six
children and a devoted husband to mourn
her loss.

Just think of 00.000 chicken* all together.

dence in this place.

UROCKBHIIOKV HOUMK HOIIAIH.X.— The
social event of Inst week wits the enjoyable
nliil altogether delightful evening parly ul
th HrockerhofT House. The guests wero
hidden for o'clock and by that hour the
stream of youth, beauty and fashion flour
ed steadily through the brilliantly lighted
halls of tho hotel. Dancing commeneod
about 10 o'clock and until a late hour
could bo beard tho inspiriting strains that
eatne from the Interpreter* of Straus* and
other noted couifHisers of dance music.
Among lliu many guests who honored
this social with their presence, and Md<b-d
to the brilliancy of the occasion by their
exceptionally beautiful toilettes, wero Mrs.
J. 11. Knowlcs, of Richmond, Va., the
lady who lias gaimd such an enviable rep.
utation as a tirio contralto singer at the
F.plscopal church. She was elegantly
dressed in Ashe* of lb>*es brocade silk ;
ornaments, diamonds. Miss Lauth, of
Howard, daughter of the wealthy iron
manufacturer, was present, and wore a
blue silk, with point lace overdress; orna
ments,diamonds. Miss McAleer,of Pitts
burg, white muslin; Miss Host, of Lock
Haven, pink silk trimmed with black
velvet; Miss Turner, of Richmond, Va.,
black silk with point lacaoverdress, pearls;
Miss Zeigler,of Sunbury, drabsilk, jwarls;
Mrs. Van Leah, of Richmond, Va., black
silk and velvet, diamonds; Miss Cook, of
Baltimore, black silk and velvet. These
ladies are leaders of fashion at their re
spective homes, and they fully Justified
their reputation by enhancing their natural
beauty with lovely adornments. It is
scarcely necessary to sja-ak of the Hollo
fontc ladies. They are noted for their
beauty and attractive toilettes, but Mrs.
John N. Lane was universally conceded
to have been one of the best dressed ladies
in the ball room. It was certainly an en
joyablo occasion. The refreshment* were
of a character that gav- great *ulbfa< lion
to all who partook of them. The music
was furnished hy the famous Repass string
band, of Williamsport. It was simply
delightful.
A Paxil LNTOU!< KoßTiru ATIOX. —The
Tyrone Herald i* our authority for the
bit of informatiou which we xinw give
alec.it an ancient fortification about four
teen mile* from Tyrone, near Mushannon
creek, in this county. The entire site, it
says, covers two acres of ground, a portion
of the outer wails, however, being entirely
demolished What seems now to have
been the interior of the vast masonry, con
sist* of a series of parallels, with embras
ure* running at various angles. The front
of the parapets, and face* of the embrasures
are still covered with some kind of durable
plaster or cement. This cement facing is
of a red color, about half an in< h thick,
and hard, almost, a* Hint. Where it it
broken, the rock has crumbled away to the
depth of several inches, and the top of the
rocks is also worn away by time and the
action of the elements, lea* ;ng the edges of
the cement project like flanges set jerjen
dicular to the plane of the rock. The age
of this old fortress Is beyond all possibility
of computation. The composition of the
cement is not known, but the building ma
terial belongs to that class of rocks known
among geologists as Mahoning sandstone.
This formation, when found in place, caps
the coal measures of the Cloarfleld and
Centre county region. At the time of its
deposit, no human being existed on tbefaf
of the earth, nor until long |.*ri'>ds there
after. Large tree* now stand on the old
masonry, and these sre hut the successors
of other generations of trees that decayed
msny centuries ago.
This sounds somewhat improbable to us,
but ills told with so much seriousness that
there may be some foundation for it. If
so, some of our readers in that direction
ran tell us something more about it.
Ikxi DA vs.—Wo are now in the season
dedicated to the dear doggy and which
commenced on the 3d of July and ends on
the illhof August, or a* some almanacs
place it from July 24 to August 24. The
rising and setting of .Varus* or the Dog star,
with the sun, has been universally regard
ed as the cause of the excesive heat, and
of ernsequcnt calamities. The ancients
put great faith in this legend, regarding
the period of greatest heat in summer so
named, because in the latitude of the Med
iterranean this period nearly corresponded
with that in which the Dog star rose at the
same time with the sun. To this conjunc
tion all antiquity, and ail the later follow
er* of judicial astrology, ascribed a ma
lignant influence. The popular nature of
the dog day, no doubt, grew up in the
practice of magistrate* et all towns in
England and France, at far back as we
have any records on the subject, decreeing
that in this period of extreme heal, all
dogs be muxxled or confined, the canine
blood seeming to lie singularly affected by
heat.
—Mr. Jehn O. James, Jr., and Mr. W.
W. McEwen, of Philadelphia, under the
excellent guidance of Messrs. Frank Mc-
Coy and Andrew 0. Curtin, Jr., visited
McCoy's Point on Tuesday afternoon to
enjoy for a brief timo the beauty of the
grand panorama of nature there unfold
ed to admiring eyes. Like all who have
visited the Point, they were delighted
with the afternoon's jaunt.
Measrs. John Ardell and John D.
Lieb are giving vent to their natural enter
prise in the erection of a large frame
planing mill on tho western end of the
meadow near the spring. Wa understand
the machinery will be run by sleem
power.
Tnnxx ACCIDENTS IX AN HOUB.—With-
In the past week we have learned the par
ticulars of an accident—or, rather three
accident*—which took place aleml a fort
night sinoe In the family of Mr. William
McGirk, who farms for Edward Huriun,
Esq., near A child only one
year or age was playing with a knife, and
in the act of flourishing it atsont struck an
older child in the eye, injuring it severely. !
The Infant then wandered off into theyard
where yet another child was using a hoe.
Hy a strange fatality, the little creature
came U|HIII the sjxjt where the hoe was to
descend, and received a blow upon the
head, which subsequently proved fatal.
The child that bad been using the fcoc
ran into the barn where farm into binery '
wa* in operation, to tell it* father of the '
accident. Htrange to say, its hand war
caught In one of the pulleys and fright
fully torn. All Ibe Mr accident* are said to
have occurred within an hour, and the
surgeons had not dressed the wounds of one
ere their attention wa* called to another.
None of them, however, proved fatal, ex
cept in the instance of the infant who wa>
struck by the hoe. It* funeral occurred on
Sunday, the 20th instant, and we hope it I
is tho conclusion of this scrim of casuaii- I
lu-s. We do not remember to have heard '
of a more strange and unusual arrayof aici- :
dents hap|>eiiirig a* these did in one family
within such a brief space of time. The
family are entitled to earnest sympathy.
TIIX STATE FAIH —A circular for the
information of the public has been issued
by Mr. D. W. Seller, Secretary of tbs
State Hoard of Agriculture, containing De
regulations that will govern the exhibition j
of the society to be held in the Permanent
Exhibition building, in Fairmount park,
Philadelphia, opening September 8 and
closing the 2"lb of September next. Nine
thousand dollars are offered in premiums
for live stock, not a dollar of which is for !
*;>eed, as no racing will be j--rrnilted, but
a ring for the exercise of slock will be pio
%id-d. Liberal premiums arc ai*,> offered
for fruits, flowers, ornamental plants, and
' 1
farm product* ; for textiles, furniture and
other manufactured goods ; for tools, im
plements, machinery and fertilizers: for j
improved method* of building, of irrigat
ing. draining and adorning grounds, and >
increasing tho attraction of rural life.
The department of live stock corn}*! it ion
i* open to ali the world, and all other dc. ;
parlmenU to the people of the I'hi ted '
States. As the most liberal arrangements
arc making for the transportation of stock
arid agricultural exhibits to and from the '
grounds, it i* believed that a general inter
est will be taken in Ibis exhibition, thus '
rendering it superior to any over held in ;
the Slate. Exhibitors must have their |
animals and article* entered on the Seen - j
rotary' books, which are now open, :
by 10 o'clock r *l. on Tuesday, Septem- j
bor 2. Further information on the sub- ■
ject can lie bad by aiklrossing Mr. Seller, j
Tenth and Chestnut streets, Philadelphia.
Ax EXCURSION —An excursion origi
nated for the delectation of the many
guest* now st the Brt* kerhoff House start
ed out at an early hour on Tuesday morn
ing and enlivened Allegheny and Linn
streets as they passed in the commodious
■ 'Mountain Echo'" wagon, on their way to
the top of Mount McCoy, before a msjori
ty of our people had yet partaken of j
breakfast. They were an unusually bright '
and pleasant looking party, and comforta- |
bly filled the conveyance. Among them
we noted Mr*. Pina and.daughter, Miss
Cook and Mr. Reynolds, of Baltimore;
Mrs. Knowlcs and daughter and Miss Fox,
of Kichmond; Mr and Mrs. Teller and
Measrs. Zeigler, Frccdman, Hrockcrhoff
and Heinle, of this place; and Mr. Scott
and lady, of Williamsport. The party
stopped for a sboit time at the base of the i
mountain, and drank of the water flowing i
from the famous Iron Springs, which they
all pronounced very fine. After a pleas
ant lime and a view all around of the
beautiful panaroma surrounding the moun
tain, the party returned well please*] witii
tba excursion.
BCSH Hot *! SCX lAIILK. —Never has our
popular friend lioppot bit upon a more
charming plan of giving pleasure and en
tertainment to bis guest* and bis hosts of
town friends than in his series of Tuesday
evening sociable*. They arc not charac
terized by any display of full dress, hence
are free from anything like formality
or stiffness. Breaking up, as they do, at
an early hour they can give no offense to
the parents of the ladies and gentlemen
who participate. That of last Tuesday
evening was particularly enjoyable. That
the music was furnished by our own ladle*,
is a sufficient guarantee to our readers of
it* excellence. Mr. Hoppn* deserve* the
thanks of the community for the opportu
nity be has thus afforded tho young people
cf enjoying as barmless a pleasure as the
dance, when preserved a* it Is from all it*
objectionable features.
PICNIC AND PUTIVAL— A grand day in
the woods will be enjoyed by the friends
and attendanu of Emanuel's Reformed
Sunday-achooi, at Jacksonville, next Sat
urday and in the evening. It will be held
in Hoy's Grove, a short distance west of
Jacksonville. Abundance of swret music
will be furnished by the well-known Zion
Cornet Hand. A feature which will prove
very interesting and enlarlaining will be
the playing of Wceley A. Williams, tha
"Blind Organist," who ha* been invited
to be preeent. Of course, an invitation is
extended to everyone to be present, and
doubtless a large crowd will be tempted to
respond to the invitation.
