Junior Americas Mechanic. The members
of Mason Council, No. 131 of Junior American
Mechanics, celebrated their secoud anniversary
in their Hall, in this place, on Thursday eveuiug
or last week. The room was crowded, and the
entertainment was one or the finest given in this
place. Th Hall was beautifully decorated with
flags, aud the tables abounded wllh apples, oran
ges, cakes nuts and confectionaries, lemonade
and lce-crcain, which were served to the invited
guests. A. X. Brice, Esq., of Sunbury, anil W.
n. McCarty, .f Danville, delivered appropriate
speeches on the occasion. The Suubnry Cornet
Band rurnished excellent mnsic The Juniors
can well be proud or their grand success in their
efforts to mike all happy who attended. The or
der is worthy or the encouragement or our eiti
xens, as its principles are good. It is composed
or young men who are advancing upon the
threshold or buy lire who are forming habits
for their future career. Banded together for
mutual benefit, they meet for consultation upon
matters which must have a bearing npon their
manhood. We look npon the order as an insti
tution that will save many a boy from bad habits.
The principles advanced have a tendency to ele
vate the mind, end lead them to depend upon
industry for a livelihood at some mechanical
pursuit, and thus become useful and worthy citi
xens. In the lodge room the boy meets his com
rades, where mutual encouragrruent is given.
He loses the diffidence which too often form 4 an
insurmountable barrier to the prosperity of 11. c
unexperieuced young man, and a more sptedy
development or the necessary business qualifica
tions roust take place.
We looked upon the scene presented by the
late anuiversary with more than ordinary inte
rest. How many young men were there whose
ostensible purpose is to rise in the scale or use
fulness. How many, if properly taught, would
occupy our workshops as master mechanics, and
do the work r the Tuture, after age has rendered
nseless those or to-day. This should be consid
ered by our present mechanics. It is frequently
the case that young men are debarred from
learning the trade of their choice through a
want of means or influence. Dollars aud cents
should not stand in the way of a worthy boy
when a vacancy exists. Our experience teaches
us that when a boy is anxious to learn a certain
trade and Icarus it, he makes a good workman,
and the employer is much more the gainer than
he would be by taking ouc who learns the trade
at the instance of his father, who pays for his
position, but who bas neither the will nor the
talent. It is certainly great injustice to young
men when employees refuse to accept of them
ithout pay, as the brightest minds arc found
among the masses wbo have not the means to
pay for a trade. IT paying bosses be jieroistcd
in, the best minds wi.'l remain in obscurity, and
soon we will be left w ithout first class mecha
nics, and corporations aud individual concerns
will be the losers.
Cool Impudence. The coolest impudence we
have beard of for some time, occurred with the
Ring Calculator, whom the Democrats elected
County Auditor last full, who iuvaded the office
four neighbor of the Gazttlt, last week, aud de
liberately cut his name from the concluding part
of the Auditors' Report, after it was approved by
the Court, so that it would not apjcar in th pa
pers, all because the report showed a better ex
hibit than those of previous years. The Ring
party die hard, but then there is uo hope of re
suscitation. Trulv Othello's occupation is gone.
Os Tuesday afternoon an alarm of fire was
given, caused by a bed taking fire from a stove
pipe, at the residence of L. Wynn, on Chestnut
street, iu close proximity t No. 1 eugine house.
The steam engine No. 1, was run to Miller's
well, on Market street, and soon was ready for
service. The Good intent iiock ana L.aaoer
Company came speedily ou Ike ground, and at
once went to work, The Washington Steamer
was rnu to the well on the old depot lot, and at
once commenced running their hose to the build
ing. The Hook and Ladder men had their lad
ders up on the building, and extinguished the
fire with buckets in a few minutes. We were pleas
ed with the activity of both steamer companies in
gettiug ready to do service. It showed that
the members ore anxious to make themselves
efficient as firemen. The short time that elapsed
hile getting their 'machines' iu order, proved
that we have oue uf the best and most effective
fire departments iu this part of the Stale. After
the excitement had abated, both steamers bad a
trial of their capacity in throwing water, and
both auM-his mm. foil ml in CrstcLiiS condition
for service.
An Insane woman arrived at this place on Fri
day evening last by the Lcwislown train, und
was lakeu to the jail, wheu she objected to be

lleging that she had never been accustomed to
such apartments. Police officer Culp, out ol
pity, then look her to hW resilience. She is well
clad and neat iu person. Her truuk was exam
ined by officers to ascertain her residence, as she
is enable to give any clue to her name or desti
nation. The trunk was found to contain good
cle-thing. She had but two dollars in money,
a check for her truuk in her pocket-book and a
piece of paper on which was written "Mary
McCarty, Detroit." She is a woman probably
twenty-eight years of ae, and says that her
husband was killed and that she is on the road
to ber parents, who, she says, arc in comforta
ble circumstances. It is supposed that her iu
anlty is temporary, and she became so probably
after starting on ber Journey.
Tn crusading temperance fever which has
been prevailing in the West and is disturbing the
more placid society or Pennsylvania, has broken
oat with tremendous violeuce at Williamsport,
aud women by the hundreds are visiting the
saloons and hotels or that Local Option city
urging the proprietors to cease selling the ven
omous stuff. It appears singular, too, that the
crusaders find more difficulty and labor in the
local option towns than anywhere else. In Wil
llampsort several attempts have been made to
create a riot, and women enlisted iu the crusade
hirr been freonenllv hooted at and insulted
until the police interfered.

Refused Licenses. On Wednesday last 49
applications for licenses were refused, principally
from the coal region. On refusing these appli
cations, the Court said :
" We have done an act for which we expect
severe censure, lHt the performance of duty and
a conscientious regard for the best interests of
the community prompts us to take this step.
Wc believe that too many licenses have hereto
fore been granted by the Courts. Our law
makers never iutended that more hotels and
rcstaurauts should be licensed than were neces
sary for the accommodation of the public. Some
judges in the State have held that when a party
makes application to the court iu Uue rorm or
law, that it is the duty or the court to grant the
license ; whilst others have held that the courts
are only to grant licenses in ease it appears
that the hotel or restaurant is necessary, and as
they think none are necessary, they refuse all.
The Supreme Court, in a late decision by Chier
Justice Agnew, declares that both are wrong,
and that the courts are bound to exercise a rea
sonable discretion in the matter. We have done
so, to the best or our judgment ; but in the ex
ercise or this reasonable discretion we have no
doubt made mistakes. Some, perhaps, have
been grauted that ought tot to have been ; whilst
others have been rejected that ought to have
been grauted. It is impossible for us to judge
all cases of this kiud correctly. In doing what
we have dor.e, we have called for information
from men or kr.owu respectability and veracity
from different localities, aud iu making np our
judgment have not inquired concerning the na
tionality, rcligiou and politics of any. We have
refused all applications for "new stands" and
also many for "old stands," and in granting
licenses have tried to select those that appeared,
from the best information we could obtain, to be
most necessary for the accommodation of the
public. In the East ward of Shamokin alone,
we have applications for about forty licenses.
In a place of that size, one would think that
twelve or fifteen would be more than sufficient
for the accommodation of the public, aud we
have rerused a large number or application for
old stands in that borongh. We will next year
hear all applications for stands, aud will
endeavor to exercise a reasonable discretion iu
determining the question of necessity ; but what
we have now done is done, and must remain so
duricg the easuing year. We have beeu refus
ing licenses generally in cases where parties have
been convicted of violating the liquor laws ; but
this year, where the parties have paid heavy
fines and costs, and undergone imprisonment
for a term of months, we have, upon their prom
ises to do better, granted them license, but tbi
was done only in one or two instances, and then
only where it seemed the public houses were
really necessary iu those localities for the ac
commodation of the public. K any new licenses
have beeu granted it has been through inadver
tence or mistake. We have known cases whore
the petition was marked "old .stand" for the
purpose, perhaps, or misleading.
"In almost every case or murder, riot, assault,
&c, the plea is, that the aet wts don whilst
under the influence of intoxicating liquors, and
we cannot help but believe that the courts are
in some measure to blame for this wbolesaleand
promiscuous licensing of hotels aud restaurants
in localities where the requirements of the pub
lic do not call for them. Where there arc o
many small places set up for the sale or liquors
only, those who are disosed to keep up large
and respectable houses for the entertainment cf
travelers anl strangers cannot afford to do so,
because the custom they need to support them
is divided between too many. In Locust Gap
there were thirleeu or fourteen taverns, nearly
as many as there are houses, and scarcely any
public traveling in the neighlorhood. In fact,
wherever there are a Tew miners' houses there
were several taverns and restaurants. In view
orthe increase or crime or every grade and the
known tendency that intemperance has to still
increase it, how can a conscientious court con
tinue to license more houses or grant licenses to
old ones where it is manifest they are not needed.
I will again say that wc have committed mis
takes, and may expect severe criticism, bat
it will bs a long time lieforc the people will
have public offieers wbo can please all. On my
way from the court to-day I met a man wbo
said "the people are beginning to find fault be
cause you are too severe In your senteuces of
criminals," and before going a square I met
another man who said, "We arc not altogether
satisfied beoause ths conn am not pnnisn xnostr
men a little more severely." In the perform
ance of a iublic duty we mnst expect many
tilings to try us, b-it we cannot help but think
that the good and moral classes will always sus
tain their courts in all things that may have a
tendency to relorm in all cases of known aud
manifest evil. In doing what we have doue, we
believe we have done the Lord a service as well
as the community, aud time will tell it in the
decrease of crime and expense to the law-abiding
citizens of Northumberland county."
House Hunting ad Movikg. The peculiar
srecies of tribulation known a house hunting.
which is so closely Identified with the 1st of
April, is now in its midday or excitement. Those
who through choice or compulsory measures,
Intend changing their habitations lor the next
vear, grow more nervous au 1 despondent as each
day rolls by, leaving them in this unsettled state
of mind and body. Those who have never been
so situated fail to imagine the wave of trouble
which rolls across the breast or those otherwise
happy mortals who by circumstauccs are forced
to look up places of abode for the year to come.
Trulv It is a luxury which uone but the poor ran
enjoy.
To those who are going to move we oum
say, il you nave 10 trv uj aim
local habitations, just go off without eleaning
house, aud leave it ir possible iu a nastiei condi
tion than when you first went in. Throw all the
old bones, shoes, hoop skirts and broken lamp
chimneys just where they can be raked on a pile
but don't do any ratting. The Incoming faintly
won't know what it is to muke garden. If a
door or gate is nearly off hinges, eivc it a kick
and help it off; it pleases the proprietor to fix
such things up about this time of the year, leu

The Pittsburg Post says or the above bill :
" The bill offered in the House at Harrisburg
by Hon. A. T. Dewitt, or Northumberland, to
regulate medical practice thronghout the Com
monwealth, appears to be well conceived. While
it will, ir passed, sadly interfere with the opera

medicine and surgery who can show the neces

column, and we know or no goad reason why it
should not become a la. v."

LINES occasioned by the remarkable snow
torra of April 10, 1820.
As tov.lt elate with happiness in bliss
Roll on the bed orecstacy ; joys rise
On joys, and wave or pleasure follows wave
Till 6oine catastrophe with suih'en stroke
In some sad crises sweeps those joys away ;
Like heaven's artillery prostrates lofty towers.
So Spring, attended by her Zephers came,
And Vegetation in lier gloomy eeu
Confined by Winter, all her massy chain
Had broken, and prepared to issue forth
Upon tier grand career ; all nature smiled ;
The vernal songster perched on every shrub,
And all Creation hailed the approach or spring ;
But like a Hero pants for deathless fame:
Like Him, who to immortalize bis name,
Diana's temple fired ; so Winter wheeled,
Brandished his dart and gave his mightiest blow.
Pale panic stricken Spring defenceless fell
Mild Zcphvr dies by Boreas' warlike arm.
And shrouded lies cold Vegetation's corse.
Again the Tyrant reigns with victory crowned :
Yet boast not haughty Tyrant ! Phoebus comes
In august chariot, drawn by "flaming steeds ;"
He comes to conquer thee aud all thy train ;
Then shall he call the vernal Host to life,
Fair Spring preeminent shall raise her head
And o'er thy ruins her gay banner wave.
In verdant rolies shall vegetation shine.
And the mild Zephers dance along the stream ;
The faathered choir in sweet orchestra join,
And Nature in her flittering splendor shine.

FIUE.
The barn or Mr. John Jliril, of Shamokin
township, was destroyed by flie on Thursday last.
I'be flie originated iu the following manner:
TK...ilr.M-;.l. nt th f., nii! c J 'f, '
told a little eirl to take care "not to let the Ere
go out." Vet the little lrl's ltioughts.no doubt,
were placed upon some other object, "let tbtflre
go oiU." Nature when commanded, and upon
recollection, will perform what is hidden, and so
did this child. Immediately on discovering that
the fire was out, she ran to a neighboring house
for ,!; returning heme she passed over the barn
yard, ana dropped fire on some straw which lay
outside of the barn. The riic immediately
went into full blaze, and. though every exertion
was made to extiuguish the fire, the devouring
element could not be contiolcd, the barn wa
laid in atftft.
About 40 bushel of wheat and rye, threshed,
was burnt. The farm upon which the barn
stood, was not occupied by Mr. liird himself,
but was tenauted. The barn was a new one or
the Spritzer kind. Gaz ttcer, June 1, 120.
