Guss.of the Huntingdon Globe, has
received a present of a pair of young
prairie wolves from Rev. Samuel Aughey,
Professor of Natural Sciences in the
University of Nebraska, at Lincoln, Ne
braska. This show of last week was one of
largo proportions outside. Tom, Dick
and Harry, with their wives and an in
numerable host of children, were in at
tendance, as well as other folks. For
several days afterwards stray dogs of
different colore and sizes were hanging
about town, generally making the Court
House yard their resting place. A num- j
ber of our sportsmen suggested a grand ;
gunutDg expedition for the animals, nnder j
an order of Council, but it was not asked.
On the 5th inst.. a JeanataV
directed to Wm M. Allison and A mo. Q.
Bonsall, editors jwpeetively of the Re
pvhlican and Democrat and Rrguter, was
received by Mr Allison, stating tnat, by
authority of the Fish Commissioners, a
number of black basa. caught at New
port, Terry county, had been consigned
to them, to be put in the river at this
place, and might be expected here on the
afternoon mail train westward bound.
All of which statement Mr. Allison prop
erly and duly announced, and, as a con
sequence, when the train arrived quite a
crowd had collected to "see what was to
be seen."
A peculiarly shaped can, gotten np to
suit the views of fish men, contained the
precious stock of. font teen fishes, that
will in time replenish the stretch of river
between this place and Lewistown dam
with a w Loiesome aud deliriously flavored
fish, was quickly handed out of the ex
press car to Mr. Allison, who, by virtue
of the despatch, had become Master of
Ceremonies for the occasion. By his
direction the can was laced nnder the
stream of the water plur, aud thereby
the warm and foul water in which the
fish had been from the time they left
Newport, was expelled. After thus
treating the fUh to fresh water from the
hills above Patterson. Mr. Bonsall not
being present, the w hole management de
volved on Mr Allison. The onerous
duties were considerably relieved by
clever attaches of the Railroad company
bringing a whole locomotive, trembling
with steam, to the work. The can was
lifted on the engine and speedily con
veyed to a point on the river shore, be
low the track, just above the railioad
warehouse, west of Patterson, and oppo
site the once well known shad fishery on
Bell's Island. A number of people were
present to witness the introduction of the
fib into the river, and so great was the
curiosity to see the bass that they came
near crowding Mr. Allison, his assistants
can, fish and all into the usually blue,
but then muddy, river. Brother Allison
will be kind enough to pardon us for
noting the only visible defect in his man
agement just here. He should have had
his programme so perfected that all could
have seen what took place ; he did not so
have it. He should have taken the pre
caution to have had arms, such as pike
poles, cutlaeaes, fish gigs, harpoons, torn
xhawks, or any. weapons that be might
have deemed sufficient, placed in the
hands of his assistants, to hare repelled
the heathenish rush that was stimulated
by a morbid curiosity, which, before ap
peased, might have drowned him in the
waters he was doing so much to re-stock
with " Bas ! oh ! the beautiful bass !''
It would have been a big fishing to have
fuhed Allison out of the river. We
haven't fished iu many days, but we
would have done some tall fi.-hing to
have fished him out. It is probable,
however, that he will ironically say we
would have done no such thing, but left
him to drown
In consequence of the rush to see, no
one saw the lUh distinctly ; mere glimpses
of them were caught by the eye as they
emerged from the can and swam away
through the muddy water, and some eyes
didu't even get a glimpse, and the peo
ple retired, highly pleased that the fish
were in the river, hut not satisfied at
their failure to sen them, which was in
the main their own fault the conse
quence of their crowding.
When Brother Allison has passed
away from this mischievous and trouble
some world to another, a celestial sphere
of action he is orthodox, we trust, and
not troubled with pythagorean transmi
gration notions, which, if true, might
consign him to the "Narrows," to splash
aud splunge as a linge black bass, and
be angled for by those who are to come
posterity here will ever keep his mem
ory fresh and green by association with
the enterprise that gave the people of
tliese valleys the wholesome and pleasant
food from the waters of the " Blue J u
niata." Don't shoot the man who takes the
first black bass out of the river and uses
it on the table, as Governor Dix said
should be done with the man that would
attempt to haul down the American flag,
but sue him. All are so directly inter
ested in the success of this enterprise
that all should willingly wait for the ex
piration of the few years required by
law to abstain from using these fish.
Those who will not wait, should te
made to wait under the law.
About 7 o'clock yesterday morning a
fire originated among the chemicals in
tbc studio of Joseph Hess, the village
artist, a few doors east of this office.
Mr. Hess was not in at the time. People
on the street saw smoke issuing from his
room, gave the alarm, bursted open the
doors and extinguished the fire before he
arrived on the scene of disorder. The
discovery was made in time to prevent a
destructive fire, as there was air enongh
astir to have driven the flames through
the whole block in which it originated.
It was another narrow escape for the
SbWTI.XBL.
Wherb is Jcdok Lynch 1 On Sun
day uieht, the 6th inst., some scoundrel
or scoundrels placed a tie on the track
of the railroad about a mile below Lewis
town. It was caueht up by the passen
ger train due at 1:30, and lodged some
where in the running gear or tne tram,
scattering large splinters from there to
the Granville bridge, a distance of over
two miles. The company is putting
forth everv exertion to find the villians,

The other night a young man got off
his propriety, and got on his impropriety,
and became quite annoying on Cherry
street, between Main and Third streets.
A citizen look the matter in charge and
lodged the "blood' in jail shout mid
night, to the s itisfaction of the neigh
borhood.

Numbers of our young people returned

Some time ago the Lewistown Gazelle
got off a huge snake story. For a time
it squelched all snake stories. Latterly
the Reading Times published one that
clouds the Gazelle entirely. It says a
Berks county man killed a black snake
sixteen feet long and eighteen inches in
circumstances. Mifflin county must give
up the champion snake killer's belt.
The hen roosts and poultry .yards of
onr agricultural friends along Hominy

destroyed between one and two hundred
fowls, such as chickens, ducks, &c. That
mink must be a veteran poultry thief. It
is as destructive as chicken cholera.

Bbbuy and Wilson had quite a time
to get their cattle through the crowd on
Bridge street on show day. The people
stood in the way as oblivious as statuary
to everything going on except the ap

a party of mounted Modocs to have
cleared that street. It's a pity Bergy
and Wilson didn't have one or two to
whoop. They, however, succeeded iu
getting their cattle safely carred.

Mr. Cleck was a worthy citizen in civil

did. One of whom David, a Lieutenant, in
in the lstTenn. Cavalry never returned alive,
he was killed at the battle of Cold Harbor.
He did not murmur but like a Roman father
deemed the National cause worthy of the
sacrifice of his son.
