Who Has Lost a Little Girl ?-Last
nromer a party of Gipsies consisting of
two cion, two women and a girl about
eleven years of age, passed through the
village of Belmore, Crawford county,
going west. Shortly after passing
through tbe place, a man engaged in haul
ing logs came across a little girl, aged
bout four years, who had been left iu
the road about a mile cast of the village,
on the route which the Gipsies had just
passed over. The man who was hauling
logs picked up the child and took it to
bis home. The little child could give
no account of itself, and has never yet
conveyed an idea who its parents are.
The general impression is that the child
did not belong ,to the Gipsies, and that
they stole it from some family, and be
coming tired of it they left it in the road
as above stated.
There may be somewhere a mourning
father and mother, whom the publication
of this item may lead to the recovery of
their lost child. Will our exchanges
give it chculation as nidely as possible T

A Trip to Huntingdon Thi Union
P . - IT W . . L,
" suffer at the
Jackson Housi-Conorbssmax Spear
Homc. In compliance with an invita
tion sent us by James North, Esq , we
joined r company of the following named
persons : James North, Miss Rebecca
North, Miss Elizabeth Witherow, Wash-
Ston North, J. A. Christy, Dr. L. E.
Atkinson, R. McMeen, R. E. Parker,
T. Van Irwin, E. S. Parker. Wm. Jack-
man, of the RegitUr, J. W. Speddy. of
ttie iHdrjttmfent, and W. W. Davis, of
tbe Republican, at tbe railroad at three
o'clock P. M , for tbe purpose of going
in the westward-bound mail train to Hunt
ington, a town long since noted for its in
telligence and wealth. We had not long
to wait. The train was on time, and we
were soon comfortably seated and Lurry
ing up the narrows. The run to Lewis
town seemed to ns Very short, for a friend,
one of the company, kept our attention
drawn to the side of the mountain along
which we were running, with tbe expec
tation of showing us an upright stoue or
rock that has hundreds of times been
mistaken for a standing soldier, with
overcoat, knapsack, and cap on. We,
however, failed to get a sightof it. Some
distance below Lewistown our attention
was drawn to Bixler's Gap, and who is
the hunter iu Juniata that does not know
this favorite way of reaching the top of
the mountains. This gap is soon to be
used by Mr. North as a road over which
he expects to haul to the railroad wood
and ties iu the fulfilment of a monster
contract with the Pennsylvania Railroad
Compauy for supplying it witd those in
dispensable articles. The region which
supplies ihe lumber is located in a de
pression on the top of the mouutain,
which is characteristic of this range.
The extent cf the territory which Mr.
North may operate on may be learned
from the ttttetnent that it embraces the
entire width of the depression on tbe
mouutaiu top from Bixler's Gap to a
point four miles westward. It is be
lieved that 75.000 railroad ties and hun
dreds of thousands of cords of wood
can be cut on it Granville Gap, above
Lewistown, is another course through
which t!ic material will be hauled to the
railroad. Work has been commenced on
the niountaiu above this gap, and a num
ber of lien and cords of wood have al
icady bceu cut aud hauled to the road.
THE CM O.N BX.K.
We arrived al Htiutiugdon in due time.
Following the lead of Mr. North, who is
a stockholder ami director of ihe Union
I'ank. we reached tl,is institution, which
is located iu a handsome three-story Lr;k
build ng, on the west side of a cross
street, t ie name of w hich wo have for
gotten. While the gentlemauly cashier,
Mr. C C. North, with whom many of
our citizens Lave been acquainted since
his early boyhood days, was unbolting
the front and only door leading to or
from the b.-u.k, the eye had time to re
ceive and convey a pleasant impression
to the minds of those ho looked on the
fine windows of French plate glass, and
the mnseivc and handsomely panelled
door, with its surmounted transom, guard
ed by bars of the best of steel. We arein
side, all of us, ladies included, at id the
-iglit is so pleasing that an iuvoluutary
murmer of admiration escapes the whole
party. "It is as fine as the banking
rooms iu cities" was the opinion univers
ally expressed. We stand just inside
the door, within the space allotted to
those who enter the institution to deposit
or draw money In our front, 5 or 6,
perhaps 7 feet distant from the wall at
our back, is the counter, three feet high
of native black walnut, artistically pan
elled. From our stand-point it joins the
left-hand wall, aud thence extends to with
in three or four feet of the wall directly
in our front." This passage, between tbe
ends of the counter and the wall, is the
entrance way from the customers' depart
ment to the department occupied by the
Bank officers when transacting business
A panel-work of black walnut and
Freuch-plate glass, all of tbe most ele
gant designs and woikmanship, sur
mounts the couuter to tbe height of 6
feet. A handsome walnut desk, provi
ded with paper and ink, stands outside
the counter, to the left of the front door.
We are within the space formed by the
counter. Here are tables aud desks, all
of soliJ walnut, and of fine workman
ship In the rear of this the cashier
and assistant's place is the burglar aud
fire proof vault, the foundation of which
is beneath tbe cellar level. This piece
or pier of masonry is carried or built to
the height of the bank room floor, and
at this height "quarts rock" slabs 18
inches thick and long enough to reach
across the pier, were laid on it to form the
bottom of the vault. The sides and roof
of the vault are constructed of the same
' quartz rock," laid in cement, and bound
together with iron staples. Two mas
sive doors with combination locks seeure
the vault, and may defy the efforts of the
lock picker and vault breaker. Inside
the vault we find a large fire and burglar
proof safe made by Evans & Watson,
one door after another of which was
opened nntil four seperate ones had been
swuug. Then, and not till then, were
the greenbacks and other valuables
reached. There they lay in piles, at the
sight of which Major Parker evinced
considerable emotion, bat calmed nicely
when assured that the "20 000 were not
in that pile." Money in that safe most
assuredly would be safe. Burglars, we
think, might sledge and pound for days
without being able to effect an entrance.
The directors' room is to the right of
the vault, and Las an entrance from that
portion of the bank allotted to custo
mers. Complete and handsome gas fix
tures hang in tbe bank proper, and in tbe
vault, and in the directors room. For
the gratification of the visiting party tbe
gas was turned on.
A- WALK.
After tbe instittttlbta and all its fine
things "were done," some one suggested
a walk around the town. ' Yes around
the town we'll go," was the response. But
somehow or other, when tbe walking par
ty was mustered on the pavement outside
the bank it numbered only five. Irwin
and Parker, cashiers of the MifSn banks,
had become interested in some financial
accounts that C. C. North, of the Union
Bank, had jut openbd. W. North was
interested in another direction and didn't
appear. Atkinson and McMeen . were
basking in the smiles of the ladies, and
of course they didn't come. Davis glid
ed away to see some friends and bob-nob
with Huntingdon politicians, and Speddy,
with bis rotund form, passed down town
to devote a short time- to bis special
friends there. Five only to walk. We
started in the following order : Mr. James
North aud Mr. Jacob A. Christy, who is
the oldest member of tbe Mifflin bar, and
who was also the patriarch of our party,
formed the van ; the Register and the
Sentinel, with Major Parker sandwiched
between them formed the rear. Mr.
North's energy took us up the street at
almost a ''double quick.' We bad pro
gressed but a short distance, when Par
ker broke out in a fearful criticism on tbe
condiiion of tbe streets and side-walks.
and also pronounced a bbjb eulogium on
the Mifflintown Town Conned. We
talked to him and told him tbe serious
truth that no town of its sise in Pennsyl
vania can boast as can Huntingdon, . at
this present time, of baviug t United
States Senator, a Congie-tsciao, and a
State Senator. - We dou't know wheth
er he would have ' quit Lis jokes,
when the Register came to the rescue
aud told Parker squarely to shut up,
that nothing ailed the streets and pave
ments of Huntingdon ; that the trouble
lay in his corns aud bunions.
We passed by Lewis's, by tbe red
front, out to west end, and there we
thought of London and the aristocratic
portion of its inhabitants, aud of its
other citizens. Here we turned and re
traced our steps, and walked through tbe
town by tbe Journal office, and mauy
business places and private residences.
But the two bad places of the town, the
jail and the Monitor office, we did not see
SLPPfcR AT THE JACKSON HOL'SR.
We ended onr walk at the Jackson
House, where we found the remainder of
our party, excepting the ladies and Mr.
W. North, who were up towu, taking
tea at a friend's. Herein the parlor we
met W. 11. Woods, Ksii , a stockholder
and director of the Union Bank. But
little time was allowed for' conversation.
Supptr was aunounced, and the party
was seated and did justice to tbe viands
of the ample board of the Jackson
House.
CONGRESSMAN SPEAR.
In the parlor after supper we were in
troduced to Hon. R. Milton Spear, who
is also a stockholder and director of tbe
Union Bank, and is the gentleman who
was elected to Congress last fall over the
sterling Republican and gentleman, Mr.
Morrtll, of Johnstown, Cambria county.
We were disappointed when we met Mr.
Spear. We had anticipated a meeting
with a politician, to a certain degree re
lated to the roisterly kind, bnt at sight
tliis anticipation was not realized, and
we received an impression just the oppo
site of what we expected. In height we
would guess him to be 5 feet 7 or 8 inch
es, genteel in perseu, has auburn hair,
and side and chin whiskers of nearly the
same hue. a fair aud clean complexion
that indicates temperate habits, a straight
month with sensuous upper lip, nose
well defined and well proportioned, clear
good sized eyes, hazel iu color, if we
were not deceived by the glare of the gas
light, and surmounted by pleasant brows,
aud full forehead, with face through
out highly agreeable and iutelligent
looking. ' Traiu time came speedily.
Mr. Spear bade us "good night, and we
hastened to the depot. Tlie ladies and
their escort arrived just in time to get on.
Our article, has already grown to long,
or we would write of the companionable
New Knglander, who shared his seat
with us from Huntingdon to Mifflin.
lie was a man of 60 years perhaps more,
who has journeyed through life thus far
we would judge from bib talk without
having felt its thorns All reached home
safely at 8:45 P. M , highly pleased and
full of thanks to Mr. North fur the e:
cursion.

WATCHES,
The extensive use of these watches for the
last fifteen years by RailVfff Conductors,
Engineers and Expressman, the most exact
ing of watch-wearers, has thoroughly da
monostrated the strength, steadiness, dura
bility and accuracy of the Waltham Watch
Tj satisfy that class in all these respects, is t
decide tha question as lo tbe real value of
these time-keepers.
, More than 00,000 of these' watches are
now speaking for themnelvcs in tbe pockets
of the pecple a proof and a guarantee of
tbw swperioriiy over all others.
The superior ergmiiaiion and great extent
of ihe Company's Works at Will ham, enables
them to produce watcuas al a price which
renUera eompe)it:oa futile and those who
buy any other watch merely pay from 25 to
50 per cent, more for their watches than is
necessary.
These lime-pieces combine every improve
ment that a long experience has proved of
real practical use. Having had tie refusal
of nearly every invention irr Watch making
originating in this country or in Europe,
only those were finally adopted which severe
testing by the most skilful artisans in onr
works, and long use on the part of the public,
demonstrated to be essential to correct and
enduring time keeping.
Among the many improvements we would
particularize:
The invention and Use of a eentre pinion
of peculiar construction, to prevent damage
to the train by tbe breakage of main-springs,
is original with the American Watch Cora
pany, who. having bad the refusal of all oth
er contrivances, adapted Fog,' pa'ent pin
ion as being the best and faultless.
Hardened and tempered hi i springs, now
rnifersally admitted by Watchmakers lo be
Ihe best, are used in all grades of Waliham
Watches.
ATI Waltbam Watches have dnst-pronf
caps, protecting the movement from dust,
and lessening the necessity of Ihe freqnent
cleaning necessary in other watches.
Our new patent stent-wlnder, or keyless
ffalch is already a decided success, and a
great improvement on any stem-winding
watrb in the American market, and by fir
the cheapest watch of its quility now offere i
to tbe public. To those living in portions of
the United States where watchmakers do
not abound, watches with tbe above mentiftn
ed improvements which lend to ensure ac
curacy, cleanliness, du.-abiiily and conveni
ence, must prove invaluable.
