tho Methodist Church in this borough had

day. The scholars met at the . church and
proceeded to -the pic-nio grounds in proces

having on them appropriate mottos. About
three hundred person partook of the good

Of the roofi The timbers of tho house, and
the furniture were considerably damaged,
but fortunately no injury was done to any
person except to stun one of the children,
who soon recovered. Tho makers of that
lightning-rod ought not to feel particularly
proud of their work, if their rods are all
of that stylo.
A Strange Incident. The Raftsman's
Journal says : Some time last fall, Miss
Cora E. Hayes, aged 7 years, daughter of
8. J. Hayes, of Curwensville, Clearfield
county, swallowed a needle of 1 J inches in
length. The little girl experienced no un
pleasant results at the time, fiom swallow
ing the needle. Several months ago, how
ever, sho began to complain of having a
pain in her stomach, and more recently of
pain in the region of the bowels and side
Thus matters stood until Thursday, Ju
ly 7th, when tho needle was taken from her
hip, near tho lower extremity of the ileum,
by Mr. Hayes and his family physician.
This is certainly a very singular aijd rare
incident, and one worthy of note. Parents
should exercise much precaution to prevent
their children from swallowing needles or
pins, lest death result from such occurrence.
The News in commenting upon a commu
nication which appeared in our columns
last week intimates that the article was
"our own production."
From tho readiness with which our friend
of the News makes the above charge, it is
evident that he personally knows something
about that manner of getting communica
tions. 'We object, however, to being meas
ured in his half-bushel.
We did not write the article, but as wo
require tho name of every correspondent
we know who did, and also know that he
does not live such a very great distance
from Newport.
Orphan School Examinations The sol
diers' orphan school at Mount Joy, which is
under tho charge of Rev. Jesse Kennedy,
had the second annual examination on last
Monday. The school now has 1U8 pupils.
On the day following an examination was
had of the school at White Hall,, the pi in.
cipal of which is Capt. J. A. Moore. Both
Capt. Moore and Mr. Kennedy are well
known in this county, and their friends will
be glad to know that the examinations
proved that the education of the pupils was
entrusted to good hands.
Under your Hat. In this country every
man of sound mind is a capitalist. Of
course this assertion will be challenged.
You, Sir Reader, of the thread-bare coat
and vacuous wallet deny it utterly. You
insist that your brain is healthy and well
furnished, but intimate with a sneer that
if any conjurer will make discovery of your
capital you will doff your napless hat to
him and be his to command for evermore
Sir, put on your rusty beaver, and4 we will
tell where your capital is. . Right under it.
We will suppose that i there is common
sense a fair stock of - worthy knowlcdgo,
and plenty of energy within the circlb of
felt that you have just crowned ; yourself
withal. That's capital "working capital'
of the best kind. If you don't think so
you are over modest, and the- sooner' you
get rid of your diffidence the better for
you and yours. Why;, man, such a head
as yours is better , than the philosophers
stone. It is an engine that only requires
to be set at work, and kept at work, to
procure you all the comforts and enjoy,
ments that a national being can desire
As to 'Wealth its clomonfcs aro lying in
their" rude state on every side of you, and
only . require perservi'ng manipulation to
convert them into the circulating medium
Indigent ! With brains and health you
have no right to be indigent in a country
whoso magnificent resources auo out of all
proportion to the numbor of heads and
hands thtfre are to develop them. Fifty
roads to Success are. open to you. Take
the one that suits you best aiul push ahead
But yoii wust push' not loiter.. Take this
screed of hemcly advice, . and. our word for
it your coat hereafter shall be of glossy
broadcloth with all accessories to match
Don-'fclean on friends, don't borrow, .don't
wait for deadlmen's shoes, don't tarry for
something to-tHrn up, .or ten to one- it will
be the world's nose at; your lack of pluck
and industry. Employ- the capital under
your hat. Work it wisely, honestly, resol
vedly, and the returns are sure to be satis
factory.
For The Bloomjteld Times.
Mr. Editor : Having had the pleasure
if beiiii; present at the examination of the
pupils of the orphan school at Loysyille, al
low me to mako a few notes of it for your
paper.
1 Ins school was for some years a -school
for soldiers' orphans, exclusively, but some
time since the buildings and grounds were
purchased by the Lutheran Church, for
the purpose of establishing a permanent
orphans' home, under the care of the
church. The larger number of the pupils
are still soldiers orphans there being as
yet only twenty supported by the church
alone. The examination took place on
last Tuesday, July 10th; There were pres
ent during the day Rev's. Sell, II. W. and
1. j . Hollmeier, Mr. Bol. liernlicisel and
several ladies. The examination was very
creditable both to teachers and pupils. It
embraced reading, spoiling, mental and
written arithmetic, geography and gram
mar, interpersed with singing. The chil
dren gave their answers very readily and
correctly, and gave evidence of having
studied well, and of having been carefully
instructed. 1 heir deportment was hielily
commendable. It was a real pleasure to
see them enter the dining-rooin and take
their places at the table, all with the great
est quietness and order. Throughout the
meal they maintained the same good order.
1 he homo is under tho etucient superin
tendence of Rev. II. Williard and his fami
ly ; who take a great interest in tho welfare
of the children, and do all in their power to
make secure the comfort and improvement
ot the orphans. 1 he children, too, seem
to be very much attached to rappio Wil
liard, as they call him.
The home well deserves, and should re
ceive the hearty support of the church that
has founded it, as well as of the community
in wiiiuu ii. is lociiieti.
We remained until late in the evening.
seeing tho children in the school-room, in
the dining-room and at play : and we camo
away very much pleased with our visit to
tho Loysvulo Orphan School. F.
