is negotiating for the purchase of tho City
Hotel irt Williamsport. This is not offi

severe rain on last Sunday even
ing reminded ovory one of the terrible fall
of water in July 1870, and there was a
good deal of anxious looking nround the
corners during its progress.
—Philipsburg is agitating the subject of

village has more natural water facilities
than any other town in this section of the
Slate.

Mr. W. R. Tidier, of tho Broekerhoff

friends on Decoration day. The nature of
tho gift wns of a peculiarly satisfactory
character, and a gentle " sinile " irradiat

The remarks of the Reverend gentleman
were eloquent and instructive, and were
listened to with close attention by the
large congregation present.
—Tho history of the late war has yet to
be written, as events crowded so rapidly
on each other that the mainsprings of tho
actions of the leaders on each side are but
just now be.ng brought to light, and the
truth of history vindicated after strife and
clamor of factious quarrels have passed
away. The book of the late General J.
B. Hood, which is advertised in another
column, gives much light on the inner life
of secession, as seen by an actual parti
cipant.
—Hon. Jos. W. Parker, of Lewistown,
registered at tho Brockerhoff House on
last Friday evening. Mr. Parker is one
of the ablest lawyers in the State, and is
an eloquent advocate of Democracy, He
is earnest and ontspoken in his advocacy
of Gov. Curtin'■ nomination for Congress,
and warmly insists that the whole district
should unite in offering it to him. On
Monday morning Mr. Parker favored the
DEMOCRAT with a call and spent half-an
hour in pleasant conversation.
—Mr. William McKeover, formerly of
the Bolton and Jones' House in Harrisburg,
is now to found in tbe office of the Brock
orhofT House. Mr. Teller was fortunate in
securing the services of so capable and ef
ficient an assistant. Beside tbe experience
and practical knowledge of hotel business
which he will bring to bear in the respon
sible position he has assumed, he is a thor
oughly pleasing and accomplished gentle
man. He has already made many friends,
and the books are not yet closed.
MODERN SIR KNIQIITS. —Tho annual
Conclave of tho Grand Commandory of
R night Templars, took pluco at Williums
port on the 25th, 20th and 27th of the
current month. Thero were a largo num
ber of visitors present during tho sessions
of tho Commandery, especially on last
Thursday, when tho parade of tho Knights
took place. Unusual interest was mani
fested in the proceedings of tho Conclave,
and tho influential and important members
of the Grand Commandory wero in con
stant attendance. We nro glad to say thut
Constans Commandory, of liellofonte, bore
no insignificant part in tho superb proces
sion which tiled through tho streets of
Williamsport on tho 27th ult. Although
tho number leaving hero on tho speeial
train on Thursday morning wus unexpect
edly small, tho faithful few were joined by
other members of tho Commandery not re
siding in liollefonte, and wero thus ena
bled to marshal twenty-six men in line.
This was a creditable showing in compari
son. Kadosh Commandery, of Philadol
adolphia, had only thirty-two men in lino,
while Mary, of tho samo city, had but
twenty-seven. Constans' was accompanied
by tho Mountain City Hand, and three
colored servitors. The Sir Knights, before
taking tho special train, partook of an
elegant breakfust at tho Urockorhoff House,
as guests of the proprietor, Mr. W. It. Tel
ler, who had generously extended them
tho hospitalities of his hotel. Kminent
Commander Munson and Captain General
Hastings wero in immediate command,
and tho arrangements made by these gen
tlemen wero coinploto and satisfactory.
The marching and difficult evolutions exe
cuted by our commandery are npoken of
in words of tho highest commendation.
With tho single exception of tho failure ol
Baldwin Commandery, of Williamsport.
to pay that respect to tho visiting Knight*
from flellefonlc, which had been gratuit
ously proffered them, there was nothing to
mar the enjoyment and pleasuro of our
good Templars but tho excessive heat.
Tho following are the officers elected by
tho Grand Commandery for tho ensuing
year:
Oraiul Commander —Do Witt C. Carroll,
of Pittsburg.
Deputy Grand Commander —<!e.>rgo W.
Kcnurick, Jr., of Philadelphia.

OATION— Welsh and Mind's Great .S'Aoir.—
Tho St. Louis Globe-Democrat says of
Welsh and Sand s Croat Show :
"As far as our advices reach everybody
looked on tip-too with eager and well
founded anticipations of a day und evening
brim full of wonderful sights and worlds
of fun. Yesterday long ere the sun deign
ed to show his face, tho I'nion depot,
streets and avenues leading thereto was
ono solid mass of human flesh swaying to
and fro watching the unloading of Welsh
and Sand's great show, which is entirely
• new and undeniably leads the van In mag
| nitude. Long before nine o'clock thous
j amis upon thousands of people fllled the
I streets along the lino of march, which had
j been published in these columns, to wit
ness the most gorgeous and sensational free
street parade over givon in this city. In
the afternoon their enormous tents were
fllled to their utmost capacity, to witness
an exhibition of more rare wild beasts,
birds, reptiles and marine wonders and a
greater number of thrilling, novel and lu
dicrous Equestrian and Oymnastic feats and
animal acts and antics, than ever before
seen in this city, in any five shows put to
gether. What a host of genuine features ;
they have combined ample capital with
every adjunct of modern scienco to gather
in the most notablo of living curiosities
and muscular phenomena from the uttler
most parts of the earth, and to present
them with every accessory thatcan be devis
ed to impart attractive magnificence to both
spectacular display and arenic performance,
including the marvelous steam Electric
Light.
—At a meeting of tho Board of Trustee*

the Bush House, in Bellefonte, on Thurs
day, May 27,18#0, Prof. Joseph Shortlidge
of Concordville, Delaware cdunty, Pa.,
was unanimously elected President in place
of Dr. James Calder resigned. Professor
Shortlidge comes highly recommended
and we have no doubt will make a success
of the College. He is a brother of William

—"There," said Jones triumphantly
holding up hi* egg at the breakfast table,
"I was always told I wanted ehie, and
now I've got it," A smile perambulated
the table, as a matter of course, and the

moderately after tho Joke had been thor
oughly explained to him. But there is
no joke about the fact that Brew A Hon

DECORATION DAY IN BKI.I.EPONTIC.—
Saturday opened out bright mid clear, and
the early morning hours gave indication
of unusual activity around the headquar
ters of Gregg Post. The streets presented
an animated spectacle, and there was every
promise that the memorial services here
would be both imposing and interesting.
Although tho civic display was not quite
up to our expectations, it was so well and
skillfully directed as to make the specta
tors forget its paucity of numbers. The
arrangements were complete and satisfac
tory, and tho various committees of Gregg
Post deserve great credit for tho faithful
and earnest manner in which they strove
to muko tho impressive ceremony of laying
a flowery tributo upon the breasts of our
dead heroes, one not soon to bo forgotten
in Bellefonte. In their efforts they wore
seconded by the great interest our citizens
manifested, and by tho ludies, who came
generously forward with lavish floral con
tributions. Altogether Saturday 'a pageant
was the finest we have had for years. The
banks were all closed, but very few, if any,
of tho business places closed their doors,
even during the little time consumed in
tho actual decoration of the graves. Im
mediately after 12 o'clock streams of peo
ple began to pour in to the Diamond from
every avenue of approach, and by three
o'clock the streets and sidewalks in the
vicinity of Gregg I'ost were almost im
passible. At 3J the vurious organizations
began to arrive and were at once assigned
their positions by Chief Marshal Curtin.
At fifteen minutes after four, all being in
readiness, Marshal Curtin waved his baton
and the procession moved in the following
order :
Chief Marshal Gen. J. I. Curtin.
Mountain Citv Band—lß pieces.
Gregg Post, (. A. K.—Bo men.
Logan Hose Company—3s men.
AsCt Marshals Tate, Brew and Miller.
Orator of the day and citizens in car
riages.
A largo portion of the crowd in the
street followed the procession to the ceme
tery. The ceremonies here were exceed
ingly impressive, and there were several
new features introduced with which
the officiating members of Gregg Post did
not seem to have been thoroughly familiar.
With a few unavoidable hitches every
thing passed off in an entirely satisfactory
manner. The music, both vocal and in
strumental, was rendered in very fine style.
After tho quartette had sung, "We deck
their graves alike," the solemn work of
decorating the graves of eighty-seven sol
diers was accomplishes]. A wreath and
boquet were laid Upon each grave while a
small flag bearing the name of the dead
soldicf was placed at the head.
The feature of the occasion, however,
was the admirable oration pronounced by
the Hon. Jos. W. Parker, of Lewistown.
Without question it was the finest effort of
the kind ever heard in Bellefonte. Mr.
Parker is a natural orator. His language
is choice and beautiful, whilo his voice is
good and his delivery pleasant. At the
conclusion of Mr. Parker's address the
procession reformed and marched to the
Logan Hose House, where the firecompany
dishanded. Gregg Post was then conduct
ed to its headquarters, where the parade
was dismissed. This ended the ceremonial
and patriotic Bellefonte had once more
honored her soldier heroes.
MEMORIAL SERVICE* IN FERUI'SON
TOWNSHIP. —The gentlemen invited t" de
liver addresses at various point* in Fergu
j con township where Decoration ceremonies
were observed, returned with glowing ac
counts of their trip through the beautiful
township ; of the unanimity with which
the peoplo turned out and their generous
treatment of the speakers, and the good
tate, propriety and solemnity attendant
upon tho services over the dead. Taking
an early start they reached Pino Hall
about 8 A. M., whero they were met by the
Marshal of the day, Wm. 11. Fry, accom
panied by the Pine Grove band and a large
number of gentlemen and ladies and a
hearso filled with boqucts of flowers. Here
the ritual of the Grand Army was read,
David 11. Young acting as chaplain, after
which appropriate addresses were delivered
by J. L.*Bpangler and W. C. Heinle, Ksqs.
After decorating tho grave* of the sol
dier dead here a procession was formed
and proceeded to Gatesburg where a large
company of people had gathered. The
ceremonies here wore made particularly
impressive by a hymn sung by a choir of
ladies and gentlemen conducted by Mr.
Chas. Keith. In the solemn stillness of the
churchyard from which there is a grand
view of the valley and the Alleghonies in
the distance, in the decorous presence of
the men, women and children of the ham
let that hymn made an impression never to
be forgotten by some of it* hearer*. Here
Messrs Fortney and Hpangler made
eloquent addresses, after which the work
of decoration was completed. After the
ceremonies the people spread an elegant
lunch In the yard, having provided full
and plenty of the best eatables. They en
tertainod band, speakers and everybody In
such a manner that Gatesburg hospitality
will not be soon forgotten. Messrsßheetr.,
Ryders, Lemon and their good ladies took
especial charge of the speakers, and to them
we are requested to return their hearty
thank*. The procession now ro-formed
and marched to Meek's Church where
scenes similar to those we have described
took place. Here Messrs Heinle and
Spangler made appropriate remark* and
the monument of John Campbell was
tastefully festooned with flowers. He was
killed at Petersburg and his remains never
recovered, but his friends have erected an
elegant monument to his memory. After
pausing to admiro the beauties of the
scenery the cavalcade moved down the
valley to Pine Grove. Notwithstanding
the threatening appearance of the sky
a noble uudicnco greeted the s|ieakcrs.
Rev. Mr. Coser of the Lutheran church
opened tho ceremonies with prayer, and af
ter some delightful music, J. B. Linn deliv
ered what was universally pronounced ono
of the ablest and most effective Decora
tion day orutions ever heard in the valley.
He was followed by I). F. Forlney in an
eloquent and powerful speech. J. L.
Spangler also made u few remarks. Af
ter a beautiful Hymn, sung by some little
girls, ihe ceremonial of the day was con
cluded in a happy manner without a single
unpleasant incident to mar the duy. Here
Mr. Kelly of tho Presbyterian church
made a little speech of thunks which he
wound up with some powerful expressions
of patriotic eloquence. Messrs Kckle, lfeb
erling and others of tho committee whose
names we did not leurn did themselves in
finite credit by their successful exertions to
Lave Decoration day suitably observed.
Here also the kindness of the people will
be remembered by tho visitors. I)r. Smith
C'apt. Dunlap, ex-Treasurer Mitchell, Win.
Pntton and many others extended the prop
er courtesy of the place. After partaking
of a bountiful supper at the residence of
the Marshal, Mr. Win. 11. Fry, whose ad
mirable conduct of the proceedings of the
day brought down upon him the thanks of
all in attendance upon the ceremonies, the
visitors came away with pleasant recollec
tions of a happy well spent day.
DECORATION DAY AT KIUIIKSIII'HU.—
From a correspondent at Rebcrsburg wo
have the following :
REHKRMIIURO, Pa., Jan. 31, IHRII.
EDITOR* CENTRE DEMOCRAT : Decor
ation day was' observed here with the
usual ceremonies appropriate on ouch oc
caoiono, and ao it i* the tirot time that the
citizens of Mile* township tnnde an effort
to honor her departed soldier* with'ouita
ble riti-o, 1 desire Pi request a little opace
in the DEMOCRAT PI give a brief descrip
tion of the exercises. At about 1 I*, M.,
people began to aooenibbi at the place of
rendezvous* — Mr. Walker's lot Kebersburg
—where all wore formed inPi line prepara
tory to marching to Union cemetery.
Lieut. S. M. Spangler, who was the chief
marshal on the occasion, arranged the
procession in the following order :
Color bearer, Kebersburg Hand, Orator
and Chaplains : then came the surviving
soldiers—some twenty-five—lead by Mr.
J. A. Miller, a hero worthy Pi lead the
bravest, for Mr. Miller was in every en
gagement in which the 14Hth Regiment
took part, ever in front and never shirk
ing duty.
Next in order were children, some two
hundred and fifty, in charge of l'rof. C.
L. (Jramley. Hon. Samuel Fratiek brought
up the rear with tile citizens. Arriving at
the Union cemetery, the procession formed
inPi a hollow square around the soldiers'
graves. The marshal now explained in a
brief address the object and significance of
the ceremonies about to lie performed.
Several stanzas of a hymn entitled. "Dec
oration Ode," were then sung, followed by
prayer lead by Kcv. Landis. A dirge bv
the band was then played, ami comrade j.
A. Miller and Thomas E. Royer who had
j been designated to decorate two sjiecial
| graves, came forward and performed their
i parts, after which the rest of the graves
! were decorated by the children. The pro.
! cession then resumed its march P> the
j Evangelical cemetery when, after singing
two specinl graves were decorated by If.
Myer and Rev. Stover, the rest of the
graves were then decorated by the children
as before, and after another piece of music
by the band all assembled in the Kvangel
ical church to listen to an address by Maj.
It. 11. Forster. Not all however, for the
house was packed before one-half of the
people were tn.
Expecting to see the Major's address in
print, I shall not attempt to give an ab
stract of it here, suffice it pi say that he
was listened to with profound attention
throughout, and that every person spoke
in the highest terms of his oration. His
allusion Pi a " war-meeting" that was held
in the same building in August 1862, eigh
teen years ago, was peculiarly impressive.
There were before him many who had at
tended that meeting and witnessed, a few
days later, the departure of "Co. A," for
the scene of war.
It is estimated that at least 1,00)1 citizens
and children were in attendance last Sat
urday, every thing passed ofT decently ; no
disorder of any kind occurred, and all
seemed impressed with the solemnity of
the occasion.
Mnny thanks are due the ladies for the
prompt assistance rendered in making pre
parations for the day. "Co. A."
WALKER AND MARION. —We also hate
the following from Walker and Marion:
JACKSONVILLE, May 31, imi
EDITORS CENTRE DEMOCRAT : Decora
lion day was observed in a fitting manner
at Snvdertown and Jacksonville. The
Zion Cornet Hand furnished the instru
mental music for the occasion and inter
spersed the exercises with beautiful odes
and dirges.
A 10 o'clock, A. M. , the ears of the men,
women and children, assembled in front
of the Snydertown Union Church, were
saluted by the patriotic strains of "Hail
Columbia," announcing the arrival of the
hand. The procession was formed under
the direction of Mr. D. C. Walter,
the following order: 1. /.ionCornet Band ;
2. The clergy ; 8. Soldiers of the late war ;
4. Children with wreaths and flowers;
6. Citizens in general. Arrived on the
S round, where repose the remains of sol
iers of the revolutionary war, the war of
1812 and the late war, prayer was offered
by Rev. Mr. Irvine. The soldiers present
placed beautiful wreaths received from the
children, upon th grave*, and planted
thereon the stars and stripes. After this
floral offerings were made by all who de
sires! to do so. Rev. George P. llsrtzell
delivered the oration, followed by Rev.
Mr. Irvine, a veteran, in a few pertinent
remarks. The hymn prescribed by the
G. A. R. was sung, and the services closed
with the benediction.
In the afternoon many of those who
were present in the morning hastened to
Jacksonville to participate in the cere
monies there. Our usually quiet village
presented a lively appearance. At an early
hour the people came flocking In from all
directions, both old and young, determined
to make it a success. The order of pro
cession was the same at in the forenoon,
Capt. H. 11. Ilennison acting an marshal-
Tho llaj; of our country wan borne aloft
by veteran Smith in advance of the pro
ceuion. The I'rexbytorian cemetery win

by tho band. The preliminary devotional
service* were held, and then tbe veterans
performed their part in making prominent
the retting placet of the fallen heroes with
chaplets, flag* and flower*. Jtev. H. B.
Wallen wan the orator of the occasion.
All over here, tbe line of march wax
resumed, beaded for tbe Reformed and
Lutheran burying ground, where repose
the axhex of three soldiers of tbe lab- war.
Itev. 8. H. Wallen served ax chaplain.
Soldiers and citizens paid floral tribute*.
Beautiful pennons were unfurled over the
graves, the same in miniature as that under
which they marched and fought while liv
ing. Itev. George I*. liart/.ell made a few
remarks. The hymn was sung to the tune
of Old Hundred. Itev. Wallen pronounced
the benediction.
Thus closed Decoration day at Jackson
ville—a day long to be remembered. I be
lieve that there were very few, if any,
who did not enjoy it. More than one wax
heard to say, "How beautiful I" This wax
the tiret observance of the day at these
places ; I do not believe it will be the last,
fhu l'ost Commander requests your cor
respondent, through your columna, to ex
press hi* sincere and heartfelt thanks to
the citizens for their liberal contributions
of money to defray the expenses, and es
pecially to the ladies and the children for
tho interest taken by them in furnihirig
flowers and wreaths with which to decor
ate the nations dead. G.
DECORATION AT OTHER I'LAC EH.— At
Milexburg the day was observed with ap
propriate and impressive ceremonies. The
cemetery at this place, after Bellefonte,
contain* the graves of more Union soldiers
than any other in Centre county, and the
honored remains that repose within their
depth* received due respect on last
Saturday. The arrangements for the cer
emonial were in charge of Mr. A Bathurxt,
and were carried out in a thoroughly
praiseworthy manner. A large delega
gation of soldiers from Curtin's Works,
in charge of Captain Austin Curtin and
also the Odd Fellow s lodge of Milesburg,
participated in the ceremonies. John (.
Love, Ksq., of Bellefonte, wax the orator,
and we have heard his* oration highly
commended by jrf-rxonx who were present.
Music wax furnished by tbe Pleasant Gap
band, and the religious part of the service
wax conducted by Rev. Woodcock.
—ln I'otter township we understand the
Veteran Club paid the usual tribute of re.
gard to tbe memory of their dead comrade*.
Well provided with floral offerings, tbe
Club, with a large number of others, re
paired in the afternoon to the cemetery of
Bprucetown M. K. Church, where nineteen
soldiers of the late war sleep In death.
Here services were conducted according
to tho ritual of tbe G. A. R. Tbe club
then returned to Centre Hall where mem
orial servces were held in the evening.
Col. 1). S. Keller was tho orator at both
places.
—At Millbeim a procession, beaded by
the Millbeim and Woodward Cornet
Bands, was formed in tho evening, which
marched to the cemetery above the town
where an impressive service took place,
and the graves of the dead heroe* who lie
there were strewn with flowers. A very
large number of persons took part in the
ceremonies and the address of Rev. Akers,
of tbe M. K. Church, U highly spoken of
by those who heard it.
—We also understand that the day was
suitably observed in Harris township and
at other point* in Centre county but have
not learned the particulars. Dis gratify
ing to know that throughout our commu
nity the memorial services were so general
and as a rule conducted with so much
good taste and judgment.
—At Pleasant Gap we learn that the ob
servance of the day was also most com
mendable. We have no |*rticulars from
this place, except that John G. Love, E*q.
was also the orator there, the ceremonies
taking place in tbe evening.
CATTAIN LYTLE'H GRAVE.— From the
Harrixburg Patriot we learn that due hon
,or was paid to the remain* of the late
Isaac N. Lytic, formerly of Bellefonte,
whose recent death at Trenton, New Jer
sey, was noticed in the DEMOCRAT. Capt.
Lytle belonged to Com[ny O, of the
148 th Regiment, P. V., and was a gallant
soldier as every one who served with him
will testify. Hi* body found epulchred in
one of the* cemeteries of Harrixburg, and
tho Patriot give* the following discription
of the floral decoration* that wore placed
upon hi* grave on last Saturday:
"Some of the floral tributes placed on
the grave of the late Captain I. N. Lytle,
on Decoration Day were *o handsome that
they deserve special mention. The widow
of Captain Lytic arrived in this city on
Friday and was tho guest of Post 58 Q. A.
R., Wilson G. Fox, commander. The
i lady brought with her from Philadelphia
a magnificent flag made of immortelle*,
tho color* of the flower* corresponding to
thoc In the American flag. This elegant
niece of workmanship D about three feet
long and two feet wide, set upon a staff of
proportionate length. In the centre of
tbe flag tho following inscription was
worked, "Captain I. N. Lytle, company
G, 148 th regiment Pennsylvania Volun
teer*." This flag was presented to Post
68, by Mr*. Lytle and by the Poat placed
upon the grave of tbe deceived captain.
It will be permitted to remain on the
grave for a *hort time, and then will be
placed in the hall of the Post.
"A large and beautiful wreath of Im
mortelle* was also placed upon the grave.
The wreath was the gift of the two Grand
Army Post* of Trenton, New Jerev.
Many fine bouquet# were also *ent fcy
