TIIK "CENTRE DEMOCRAT" IN 1829.
Monday last brought a rare and valuable
curiosity to our office In the shop" of a
Centre Democrat, printed in this place on
Saturday, February 4, 1829. This journal,
yellow with age, will ho exactly fifty-one
years old next Saturday. It was printed
and published weekly by John Bigler, for
Philip Beriner, proprietor, at the annual
sum of two dollar*. It has four pages, and
is alamt half the size of the CENTRE DEM
OCRAT of to-day. Like it* present repre
sentative, it is full of valuable reading mat
ter and a few advertisement*. Very little
original editorial, however, appears upon
its pages, HIK! it has no local department.
Among its editorial, is the following pleas
ant reminiscence of Gen. Andrew Jack
son's visit to Pittsburg, copied from the
Allegheny Democrat:
An incident, worth recording, occurred
when the General wu* receiving visitor*.
A young man was introduced, who had
been deprived of his arms, by the bursting
of a cannon at New Orleans, on the Bth of
January, 1828. The General presented
bun with a bank not#, folded up, which
afterwards, on the young man's examina
tion, proved to he a ONE IIITNDKKD
DOLLAR NOTE.
The "Philadelphia Prices Current,"
which are given, show that butter wa
worth 7 cents per pound ; flour, §8.50 per
barrel; bam#, 7 cent* per pound; lard, 8
cents per pound ; |>ork, sll per barrel, and
clover-seed, $4.25 per bushel. The only
item in the paper whifli at all approaches
IOORI news is a notice that "A new post
offiee has been established at Lick Run in
Walker township, in this county, and
JAMES HL'TCHESON appointed postmaster ;
the post-office is called 'WALKER.' "
The advertisements, perhaps, contain
the most interesting information. A no
lice "To Rent," offers "the frnme house,
at present occupied by G. ll'. F. Selii/man,
as nn Apothecary .Shop, situate in the
borough of Bellefonte." Also, "that large
and elegant stone house at present occu
pied hv W. H f . I'otter, Esq." For terms
application was to be made to Philip Bcn
ner. An advertisement signed by "Thom
as Burnside, Dreiulent," called "the stock
holders of the Bellefonte and Philipsburg
Turnpiko Road Company to meet at the
house of Evan Miles, in the borough of
Bellefonte, on the first Monday in March
next." Two farms are offered for sale.
| The first "lying upon Bald Eagle creek
' and Wallace's run, within four miles of
Bellefonte, now in tho occupancy of Ru
dolph Mnlholland, containing three hun
dred and eighty acres of choice land, one
i hundred and eighty acres of which are
cleared and in a high state of cultivation.'
Tho second "situate in Spring township,
four miles from Bellefonte, now in the oc
cupancy of William Gill, containing four
hundred and sixty acre* of choice land, of
which seventy-five acres are cleared."
Applications for these tracts are lobe made
to James I). M'Clanagban, of Wallace'*
Run, or to Dr. John Harris or James D.
Harris, of Bellefonte. That there'were
soldiers in those day* is shown by a call
from S. 11. Wilson, Captain, for the "Cen
tre Troop" "to meet at the house of John
Snyder, Innkeeper, Waikor township."
Tho "Receipts and Expenditures of Centre
County" occupy most of the last page.
William M'Ktbbin, Jacob Herring and
. Anthony Kleckner were the Commission
j or# and Samuel Pettit, clerk.
Mr. Joseph Devling, of this place, hand
ed us this interesting relic for examination.
HOWARD IUFLP WORKS—THE SECOND
FURNACE IN BLAST.—The improvement*
which have marked the management of
the Howard Iron Work* since Mr. Lauth
I look entire control keep* up a steady pace.
Those familiar with these works will re
member that close beside the stack which
has been blowing steadily through all the
"paniry timet," and turning out a number
one quality of iron, stood one in which for
many years the fires had not been lighted,
and which, we are informed, was never
blown in hut once. When the recent rise
j in tho price of iron set in Mr. Lsuth de
termined to light up the cold stack, and at
once set about the needed repairs. In
j making these he ha# introduced improve
| ments, both in construction and mode of
l applying the blast, invented and patented
i by Mr. John F. Bennet, of Pittsburgh.
These improvement* have been applied
i with great success to anthracite furnaces,
but Mr. Lauth ho* tbe credit of being the
pioneer in their application to the manu
facture of charcoal iron, (in Thursday of
last week the improvements and reftair*
were sufficiently completed to light up and
the furnace was christened ELIZABETH, and
blown in. Of course, it will take a num
ber of days for the stack to get heated
through and in condition to do our best
work, but tho costs already made give
promise of success. It will undoubtedly
succeed. This is a habit with all imprnv
rnents in the iron business which Mr.
Lauth undertake*.
LECTURE HT CLINTON LLOTD.~"The
House of Representative* of the United
State* a* seen through the spectacles of Its
Chief Clerk" 1* th* title of a lecture to be
delivered by Hon. Clinton Lloyd, of Wil
liarnsport, In tbe Court House, on Tuesday
evening, February 24. Mr. Lloyd was
chief clerk of tbe House during the ex
citing period of the late Rebellion, and is
therefore well qualified to make the lecture
interesting. The speaker is a highly in
telligent gentleman and an orator. A* the
proceed* are for the benefit Gregg Poet
No. 96, G. A. R., we hope the audience
will be large. Tickets are for sate at all
the booh stores.
TOWN DOlNClH.—President Hume*, A*
usual, occupied the chair at the meeting of
council on Monday evening, with M-rs.
Ardcll, Harper, McCluro, Reynolds and
Bhortlidge present. A motion wwi made
by Mr. Hhortlidgu and seconded by Mr.
Harper tiiat a fence or railing be built
from Spring creek bridge running in each
direction along the creek, to prevent pass
erii-by approaching too neai the "rugged
edge," which wan agreed to. In connec- I
lion with tbe report of the Water Commit- i
tee, Mr. Hhortlidgo stated that during the
extreme cold weather the water in the
spring WUH only two degree!colder than in
temperate weather—in the former case it
averaged 50 degree* and in the latter 52
degree*; also, that there i now an increase
of only from '1 to 7 per cent, of flow from
the spring over the severe dry period of
lift summer. The Street Committee rec
ommended a compensation of 40 cents to
the lamp lighter for lighting, extinguishing,
lllliiig and keeping clean each coal oil
lamp. Council agreed to the recommenda
tion. Mr. Shortlidge recommended some
system in regard to street pipes, and on
motion of Mr. Reynolds, council agreed to
procure seven more oil street lamp*.
ANOTHER DAIIT KKOM CurtD'a How.
—We are as yetunabloto give all the bril
liant details, but we can at least announce
the wedding of two parties well known In
Kellofontc's business and social circles,
in the City of Williarnsport yesterday.
The happy event occurred at the residence
of the bride's parent* at 10 o'clock. The !
contracting parties were Mr. E. M. Smr- i
duvant, of Philipsburg, the wealthy and
influential partner of .Mr. John Ardell in
the lumber business, and Miss Carrie Savre,
one of the many accomplished ladies of
Williarnsport, and sister of Mr Harry
Snvre, of this place. Only-last week we
bad the pleasure of announcing the mar- '
riage of the groom's daughter to Mr. j
Munson, and now /utter fnmitiaa place* |
himself in the same category. The occa
sion we are sure was a pleasant one, and
their new relation will increase the happi
ness of both parties. The happy couple
will arrive in town to day to spend a few
days of their honeymoon.
A SLEIGHING PARTY AT SHERIFF 1
Sell AFTER'#.— Before the last snow disap
j>eared a party of eighteen Jolly young ;
folk* from the Lock Haven Normal School j
took a sleighing jaunt to the residence of
ex-Sheriff Scbaffer, in NitUny Hall, this
county. " P." thus gives their experience
to tho Clinton Democrat;
Last Friday evening a party of eighteen !
from the Normal School went sleighing up
Nittany Valley, about llfteen miles, p, the ,
home of Mr. L. A Sohaffcr (a graduate of I
! the claerWf '7lll in Centre county. Every
thing was in readiness for their reception. |
Soon the company were "at home.'' amuse
ment* were rife, and vocal and instrumen
tal inusic filled the air. At low noon (12
midnight i a sumptuous repast was greatly
enjoyed. Then music and more mirth- i
provoking intercourse, till tho golden
hours had sped so swiftly by that it was
high time to hoinowanf turn. "Home,
Sweet Home," was the closing air, and
merry goodbyes rang on the ambient air
a the merry, merry sleigh bell* tinkled
the departing party, all of whom Inei
deeply grateful lor tin ir kind and bospita- !
tile reception, and they unanimously wish
that Mr. S. and family may live long and
prtwjwr.
PROGRAMME EXTRAORDINARY-BIR one

a week of elaborate prepffalion on the
part cf all • who participate in the concert
and of anxious su*]>ense to those who de- |
sire to hear it. The tickets have been :

WOMAN a WANT*.—Miss .Susan B. An
thony, a Ulenled lady with an exceedingly
strong mind, will lecture in Lock Haven
to-morrow night on the sensible subject,
"Woman wants bread, not the ballot."
Now, we rejoice to perceive that, In Miss
Susan's opinion, tho wants of woman are
considerably modified. The average woman
In Bollefonte would elevate her pretty nose
with contempt at the idea-thai bread is all
the wants. Those whom we have met
would not be satisfied with dry bread, but
would demand butter and preserves to eat
it. And then she wants meat and cake,
and ice cream in summer, and oysters in
i winter. Not satisfied with this, woman
would consider man a heartless villain if
! he did not give her dresses and laces, and
six-button kids and Burls' shoes, and bon
. nets and jewels, and a thousand other
I things to deck her charming person. If
bread—common wheat-bread—ls all Miss
! Susan wants, we are surprised that she did
uot got a husband long ago.
ACADEMY. —The spring term is just op
ening. Unusual opportunities are offered
to the youth of Bellefonte and vicinity for
thorough instruction in tbe departments of
Drawing, J'enmanthip, Hook Keeping,
Commercial Arithmetic and tbe Clastic*.
Such advantages should be appreciated and
improved.
—A special meeting of tbe Executive
committee of tbe Y\ M. C-A. is called to
meet at 8 o'clock to-morrow evening.
—Wo give below such returns of the
borough and township election* on Tues
day 8# hiivo been received up to the time
of goiug to preen thii (Wt'dnoiday) even
ing. The result in the borough, Uken ell
in all, cannot b<- called comforting to the
Democrat*. The entire Republican ticket
for borough officers we* elected hy decisive
majorities. We lot the South ward clean,
with the exception of John Hoffer, re
elected school director, and Richard Mc-
Cafferty, inspector of election. \V can
not pretend to account for this result in
the South ward. Democrats, somehow,
failed lamentably in their duty to the party
nominees. The North ward went fyrpub
lican, a* it always does, though by a some
what reduced majority on the ward ticket.
Mr. Cowdrick made n splendid run for
councilman, being defeated by only four
votes. In the West ward things went bet
ter, Messrs. McQuistion and Meek, Demo
crats, were handsomely elected to the bor
ough council, defeating Messrs. Bbortlidge
and Hartley, Republicans, and Mr. Jarcd
Harper wus elected school director over
Williams, Republican, by six majority.
The balance of the officers elected in this
ward are Republicans. Rnt read the fig
ures for yourself.

CBEDITTO WHOM CkEim i- Drt-*'
I have received the following t mtnii&icaoa
from one who is ati enthusiastic ada.:-'
of Rev. N. J. Mitchell, of Howard. rritUK
a few of that reverend gentleman's C*
I works:
M twßs. KIHTORK ; I noticed in yn'
last a paragraph under the head of " li *•
ard Items," in which some one •p"A'
favorably of Rev. N.J. Mitcbe 1 rt
j to add that that perssm is a gentiemsn sst
a scholar, though of course all places ew
tain persons who are resiles- and oe-ir-s
change, and I riyret that Howard i* '
j exemiit. Alauil the lwt of March, !•>:
N.J. Mitchell severed the friend iv s—-
lion* and tender end-arment- ->f h.m" ''
Belmont, Ohio, and wi.h his beloved * "
Sarah, journeyed eastward, arriving ss
Howard on the 12th of April. He wok
the word of God as the man of hi-c-onw
i and from that time has defended it u ub
! the ability that (*<vd has given liim. Be
was not supported by a thousand d"!l*s
j even an hundred dollar salary, but dur:ni
| the week his bands administered to b
wants.and those of his family, while w
Sunday he preached the gospel to the r>c'
The sanctuary in which he preached '
not a stately edifce, overspread with car
pet, but terra firms, with its covering of
green. No tali spire towered heavenward
above bis head, but the stalely oak and
manle with their wide-spreading boughs
and green foliage shielded him from ibe
piercing rays of the King of Day
was instrumental in the hands of Go<! >■>
planting several congregations in the Bd
Eagle Valley. He ha reefed a
ono-half of whom with his beloved Sarah,
have gone a little in advance of him to
await the judgement. He has lived three
score veers and ten. lie has waded
through sorrows deep and has been ac
quainted with grief, and none can reproach
hint. We are not yet ready to turn b'
off, and hire another and younger man,
even though he may come with his satchel
wall stored with scraps from other authors
than those of the Bible. X. V. Z.
