DEMOCRATS TO THE FRONT.
Grand Man Meeting at Bellefonte
next Tuesday evening, August
29th, 1882.
Bally to the Support of Pattison and
Beform.
Ohauncy F. Black
AND
w. U. HENSEL.
It affords us a great deal of pleasure to
announce that Chauncey F. Black, Esq.,
Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ernor, and W. U. Hensel, Esq., one of the
editors of the Lancaster Intelligencer,
chairman of tho Democratic State Com
mittee, have boen engaged to address the
members of the party of Jefferson and
Jackson at the court house in this place on
Tuesday evening next. These gentlemen
are among tho most talented and popular
speakers in tho Stato and will present the
various issuos of the campaign fairly and
honestly. Our good Democratic friends,
in all parts of the county, they who have
for years fought tho good fight and stood
with all the heroism of true soldiers the
brunt of tho struggle with bosses and po
litical debauchery, in the contest for the
supremacy of justice and right, should turn
out to a man.
Ex-Gov. Curtin and Hon. C. T. Alex
ander are expected to speak. Do not fail
to profit by this annual gathering.
Local Department.
—Are you registered ?
—Lock Haven is to have Barnum's
show. Happy (?) Lock Haven.
—The picnic, on Wednesday, of St.
John's Catholic church, was well attended.
Tho receipts amounted to about SSOO.
—Mr. W. E. Burchfleld is selling glass
ware at a great reduction, in order to make
room for now goods. Call before it is too
late.
—The building occupied by J. W. Harts
wick, merchant, at Lemont, was destroyed
by fire on Sunday morning. Loss not
stated, insurance $1,050, origin unknown.
—Mr. "Eddy" Graham, who went to
Philadelphia some time ago for medical
treatment, was taken seriously ill while
there and his father was sent for. We
understand he is now convalescent but not
out of danger. His many friends are a
unit in wishing him a speedy recovery.
—Mrs. A. J. Swartz, of near Pleasant
Gap, met with a serious accident, on last
Thursday morning, while engaged in milk
ing a cow, she was knocked down and
tramped upon by another one, had three
ribs broken and was otherwise bruised
and injured.
—The re-union of the 63d Penna. Vet.
Vols., has been postponed until the 25th
day of October next at which time it will
be held at Pottstown, Pa., the place se
lected at its last re-union at Milton, Pa.
This information has been given us by
Major Geo. D. Pifer, formerly of that reg
iment.
—After all that any of us can say is
said it will bo acknowledged that our
statement is correct that Messrs. 8, & A.
Loeb are to-day enjoying a larger trade
than any other of tho general merchants
in Bellefonte. It seems as though the
usual inactivity of trade at this poriod of
the year has little or no effect upon them.
They sell Arbuekle's roasted coffee at 17
cents per pound, and everything olse at
the same rate. Their motto being "Live
and let live."
—At this time, during tho heated term
it is very natural for us to desire to wear
as little clothing as possiblo. But the
time is coming when heavier garments
will be needed and there is no reason why
preparation should not be made now. The
Philadelphia Branch disposed of a great
deal of summer clothing during the season
and still has anything in that lino that you
may need. Take our advice, call upon
Mr. Lewin and see whether or not ho can
give you a bargain in fall clothing. There
are many inducements that he is prepared
to extend during the coming thirty days.
—The basket-lunch Sunday-school con
vention at Centre Hill on Thursday, the
17th inst., was the first experiment of the
kind in Northern Pennsylvania. Many
witnesses will cheerfully testify that it was
a very gratifying success. The large audi
ence room of the church was full at the
three sessions and the baskets more than
sufficed to satisfy the temporal wants of
the large and happy assemblage of adults
and children. The most delightful feature
of the convention was the manifest and
sweetly experienced proof of an essential
unanimity among all the servants of the
Lord. C.
—Two Buth meetings at one time did
not appear to be one too many on Sunday.
Both were well attended, more white peo
ple being present than colored ones. The
sermon of Rev. Jobn Palmer, in the after
noon, was exceedingly creditable. We
inferred that it was his "farewell sermon,'*
and should he leave Bellefonte, he will
have the pleasure of knowing that his up
right course here has commanded the re
spect and esteem of all. The parties who
desecrated the Sabbath by loud, boisterous
singing, on the way to town from the
grounds, shonld profit by the good example
of their sable friends.
—A great many persons outsido of the
Catholic church approve tho action of that
body in prohibiting round dancing. It
has never beon made very plain why it
should be right for a young man, a porfect
stranger, perhaps, to throw his arm around
a young woman on a ball room floor, and
have the same performance be considered
improper and indecent anywhere else.
In this way ladies' are not infrequently
brought in direct collusion with gentle
men (?) whose bohavior and general de
portment render them any thing but de
sirable socioty friends of genteel ladies.
There are too many evils covered and hid
den by actions generally conceded to be
harmless. Bishop Lafleche, however, when
he prohibited "curled hair and handsome
dress" probably shot clear over tlio mark
he intended to hit, for an occasiohal in
stance is made public where hair will curl
in spite of you, and even our plain Metho
dist lady friends are well aware of tho
fact that handsome dresses are often inex
pensive ones. Bishop Lafleche may really
desire a return to the plain customs and
common mannerisms of the time of John
Wesley, and if he could-efTect this there
would be considerable falling off of bangs
and other flummery that now constitute
such an important part of the average
female make up.
—Our contemporaries of the press are
busy reporting the progress made on work
on various railroad enterprises in this and
adjoining counties. The indications point
tb a speedy completion of facilities for a
large out-put of bituminous coal from the
rogion of which Snow Shoo is the centre.
Beech Creek is the scene of active opera
tions, many men being employed by rival
companies, in grading the road. One of
these, the Penna. and Western has lor
years been slowly at work and apparently
had tho field all to themselves. But a
week or two ago intelligence leaked out to
tho effect that a corporation styling itself
the Clearfield and Williamsport K. It. Co.i
intended to construct a road over the iden
tical route. This wakened up tho other
and now the pleasing spectacle of hundreds
of men busily engaged is presented. It
matters little which company is successful,
provided the road is built. Another rail
road tho Buffalo Hun, to intersect the L. &
S. C. at or near State College is also prom
ised us in the immediate future to offer
needed transportation to those owning
lands upon which tho desposit of iron ore
*s almost inexhaustible. Centre county is
destined to become one of tho wealthiest
and busiest in the State.
—ln a few weeks the public schools of
Bellefontn will be in activo operation.
Teachers and pupils will return to their
work benefitted by the vacation now
about to close. In performing the duties
assigned them it is to bo hoped the in
structors will be guided solely by a desire
*o instruct; too many teachers become
masters and thus fail to subserve the end
whereunto they were sent. To those who
will begin with the ensuing term, we
would say teaching is work, nowhere is
dilatoriness, indifference and laziness loss
excusable, and nowhere are the ill effects
of this plan of action so obvious. Your
work, and the seed you sow, will have
little in it that is good unless your efforts
are guided by earnest, candid desire to im
prove those with whom you are b. ought in
contact. The boys and girls can material
ly assist in the great work by being studi
ous, mannerly and obedient. Your parents
and friends vtyll expect improvement.
—Are you registered ?
—When the glass works discontinued
operations, some time ago, much of the
glass that had been reduced to a fluid state
was allowed to cool in the pots. One of
these vessels was emplicd by breaking the
deposit and a large piece, clear as crystal,
of a beautiful light blue color, now adorns
the table of Mr. Kyle McFarlane. View
ed as a curiosity it is valuable and as a
specimen of the quality of work turned
out by the Bellefonte Glass Co., is an ex
cellent advertisement.
—Jacksonville lost a valuable young
citizen, in the person of Wm. Irwin, Jr.,
who died at the residence of his parents,
on Thursday last, aged seventeen years, of
intermittent fovor. The loss effects not
only the family but tho community, as ho
was a youth greatly admired and respected
by a large circle of acquaintances whose
grief will be partially assuaged by know*
ing that ho died prepared to go.
—On our sixth page will be found an
article, from the Philadelphia Times, om
bodying the particulars of the BurnsiJe
estate, v alued at many millions. Among
other heirs is Thomas Burnside, Esq., of
this place. The facts as set forth are only
partially correct, as we have been reliably
informed there will be little if any litiga
tion in properly disbursing the wealth left
by the deceased.
—Mrs. Louis Wian, of Boiliog Springs,
died on Friday last, after a long and linger
ing illness. She was a patient sufferer and
during the time that Death's cold, icy
fingers were tightening their grasp upon
her vitals she did not complain. Three
children and her husband, in addition to
many friends and relatives will mourn her
demise.
—A certain Bellefonte lady, who decks
her person with sun flowers, has promised
one of our young limbs of the law some
elegant embroidery, wrought by herself.

Barely are Bollefontc audiences treated to
as masterly discussions of scriptural topics
as they were fortunate in being favored
with on Sabbath last. The morning sub
ject "Watchman, what of tho night?" was
intended to inspire those who are prone to
become despondent when circumstances,
over which they have no control, render
everything dark and gloomy, and the
breaking of tho day never to be realized,
with courago to enable them to trust in
Him who orders all things wisely. Seldom
is the hungry soul invited to partake of a
repast so strengthening. In the evening
tho problem, so vexatious to commentators
and expounders of tho bible, tho unpardon
able sin, was discussed with tho same abil

BKLLKFONTE, Aug. 14, 1882.
T. J. DUNKI.K, CHAM. SMITH, BOIIKRT
MCKNlOUT— Gentlemen: I notice in the
published proceedings of tho Democratic
Convention on tho eighth of August that
a resolution was offered appointing you
congressional conferees, which met tho ap
proval of the convention ; but from per
sonal considerations my friend, Captain
Hunter, amended the resolution giving me
the appointment.
Being of the opinion that tho conven
tion should not delegate tho power to ap
point its representatives, and of the politi
cal party it represented, I very heartily
ask you to accopt the trust the convention
would clearly have given you if tho amend
ment to tho resolution had not been pro
posed. •
It has been tho custom of tho Democratic
party of Centre county for many years ti
have congressional conferees appointed by
the convention, and as you are very ac
ceptable to mo personally, I am glitd to
have the precedent followed in this accom
modation to tho expressed wish of the rep
resentatives of the party.
Truly, your friend,
A. G. CURTIN.

Yours of the 14th inst., received, and in
reply wo think it duo to you to say that we
accept the trust in the spirit in which it is
tendered. It is only necessary to add that
by using all fair and honorable means to
secure your re-nomination to the position
which you have so ably and

Binks ut retiring places, buildings for
the safe keeping of forage, tents, and ra

—A friend who was present hands us
the following report of tho convention at
Centre Hill :
A Centre County Sunday School Association met ill
convention at Centre Hall last Thursday, in answer to
tin' call of I'rest. Austin C'urtin. At ten o'clock the

Swart/, and llarvey. The ]>oiutri elirite<l were, good
mimic, beautiful pictures, fragrant flowers, well-light
ed rooms, earnest work and no long speeches.
Rev. Jas. P. Hughes being appointed to open the
subject of "Normal Work," convention recessed for
five uiiuutes. Ou being recalled Mr. Hughes dwelt
particularly on KNOWING WHAT for TBACII, and illus

school room. Remarks on this subject were made by
I'ref. D. M. Wolf and Dr. Robert Hauiill. The session
was concluded by singing No. dlO in (lospel Hymns.
At two o'clock the ufternoou exercises opened by
the convention singing "Stand Up, Stand l*p for
Jesus," alter which prayer was offered by J. W.Miller.
Following came "Children's Hour," in which many
Sunday school scholars took part led by Rev. Critten
den,
"Some Sunday school mistakes" were suggested
jifincijmlly by the ladies in the form of little notes.
A selected choir of singers rendered "Tell it to me
Again," in a very effective maimer. At this |oint
Rev. Mr. Duller, of Ning Po, China, was introduced
and spoke briefly of the work in that country.
Mr. J. W. Miller then read a paper en "Week-day
Murk for Sunday Schools." A husiness hour followed

tin, and the secretary, Clement Dale, Esq., made inter,
•sting and touching speeches.
The sessions were all well attended and the work
throughout tho county must be stimulated by the
convention.
It is peculiarly gratifying to know that
tho cause of Sunday school work is being
so systematically and faithfully attended
to by its friends. Our columns are open,
not only to these, but to all christian work
orn, and they arc requested to use them in
the dissomipation of healthy, religious in
