At 1 :10 r. it. on Thursday last, (of course it w as Thursday, we were burnt out on Thurs day in '33, aad on Thursday iu '72,) a fire broke out in the pattern shop of the foun dry if Davit, ' McCoy' & Co. The alarm was sounded and mxn there were a crowd of earnest, determined men on the ground ready to ri.-k life aud limb to stay its pro- gress. The origin remains a mystery though the most probable supjiosition is thai it originated from a spark from the forge iu the blacksmith shop in the foun dry. The wind was blowing a regular gale from the southeast at tbe time and tbe flames immediately spread to the adjoining shops, the wind bearing them far in ad vance. The shed between the pateru shop aud the residence of Prof. Georgo Schaeier was torn down, latt before the fire coul 1 be cot under control It leaped across the street to the carriage sued and stables attached to the Somerset, House. Tbe buildings were as dry a paper and burned as readily. Though the w ind car- ried the tire directly before it; It also by its , ... , i . i1-' , gusts and eddies extended it, &ud a nnin- hue of stables on Patriot street were soou on fire. Hitch masses ot burning material were taken up by the wind and carried far in advance aud whenever they .fell they produced a fire. One ot those torches lit on and Ignited the reMdenoe of Frank Weimerand anotlier fiml a frame back building attached "a the residence of Geo. llolderhaum almost simultaneously. Tlie Somcieet House w: soon on fire at the east ell as at tjje w est side and the men w ho had been trying to save it turn ed llwr attention to saving the goods.

John Youiisr was fcwuiiW and all fo gbt fo gteC with an energy born of dispair to prcveut ; t the tbtmea tnan crossing Main Cross ' vatcHincB tt ere termed to the well in front ot the Hill House and the one in the rear of M-mmoth Block. It was a useless fiirht. however, as tar as the aaviug of Hiiy's Block waa concerned, lor hardly bad the men gained their station until tho dwellings of W. P. Foust, J. W. l'atton and liarnet Picking were in flames, and as they were all lrame the Humes did mit K'nJ much time in crushing them. Tbu intense heat lrke in the windows of ill Hav Block and it. comiiu need to burn .it M'Veml places simulnineousiv aii'l was hiioii bevtmil biiv human menus of control.

The fight on Young's Meat Market was kept up all the time the Hay Block was burning and was only relinquished when one of the walls of the latter building fell and crushed it so baUy aa to a-iake it burned a destroying brand had been flang ' into the garret ot Mrs. Emily Ogle's house on the noih side of I'niou street. The roof bad been partially torn olfin the morning aud at the time the alarm of fire was sounded the carpenters were busily engag ed in tacking on a new roof. The blazing brand lighting amid the old dry shingles on the garret were ignited and in a furious blaze in a second. This was the oldest house that was destroyed and one around which many memories it our old : est citizens were entwined.""' The scene presented when the fire was at its height is almost indescribable. Tbu splendid brick structures melted before the fierceness of the flumes as melts the snow- Hakes on the river. . The Barnct House and Bare 'a residence, two tf the largest building dtV.royed, dis- aptieared. the one in 1j the other in 17 n;inutM ,,y the MHteu. The flames would 8lUick the rear of mostof the buildings and appear almost simuitamouMy in tue iront. The windows would redden tor a moment and then great billows ol fire would belch -out and meeting each other shoot up into the air a vivid, quivering column ot flame and poising iisell" in awful majesty, hurl itself bodily a hundred feet and kindle still nher buildiues. The intense heat created new currents of air and spread the fire out of the direct course of the wind. !''' : am MaT ' ". AVeanuexa small plot ot a part of.ttid tow n including the burnt district.

The deceasstl was a native of Somerset county where he resided till his death. and mas much respected by his friends and neighbors. His father James Pew was one of the Pioneers in the settlement ot this county, having removed from New Jersey w.-rore the involution. In religion the deceased was a Ditciple. He adopted the New Testament as hi only rule of faith and practice, aud tried to govern his life by the apostolic precept, For many years he was a member of the Church of Christ in the borough ot Som erset, lie died in the hope witu wfiich j'aiil consoledjthe brethren at Theaslonica: "For if we ben ve that Jesus died anel rose again, even so ,'.ic-m also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

Moke Steai.ixg: On Wednesday night of last week, entrance was effected into Mrs. Walker's smoke-house and about $0 0( worth of tine hams and a quantity of macterel stolen. Certain parties sus pected, but thus tar no means lor tbe re covery of the stolen property nave been taken. Our farmers are provident providers. and right well do the lazy lubbers,- who fail to earn food for their families know it. In spite of tlie arrest of the butter , raiders. and their subsequent incarceration in the county prison, Llk Lick appears yet to have thieves fcr whom example nor pre cept Las no terrors. This fact John, Stephanus found out to his cost on a recent Friday eight His smoke house smoke houses appear to be a favorite point with these midnight marauders was forcibly entered and tea hams, a shoulder and about twenty pounds of sausage taken; not content with this, a favorite cock was bagged, though tbe plump, toothsome pul lets were leit undisturbed upon their perch. It is to be hoied these rascals may be lcrrcted out and abundantly punished. And yet another. Oa Thursday night, the 27 th ult., Philip Hay's smoke-house was broken into and sixteen or seventeen pieces ot bacon, hams and soulders, taken. There was no unusual noise heard during mu mgiii, auu upou using in iiie morning, Mr. Hay went directly to the stable to feed his stock; his boys, soon after, discovered that the smoke-house bad been rifled, and informed their father of the fact Without returning to the house for his coat or bis breakfast, he at once struck the trail and followed it up, in the hope of meeting some wagon tracks, as it seemed impossible that so much meat could be carried any great distaucc. As good luck would would have it, Con. stable M. Shater, of Salisbury, had been a guest of Mr. Hay's over night, and he, with a son of Mr. Hay's joined in the search. There were plenty of tracks in the soft soil, one of them especially distin guished by the imprint of large nails; these tra.-ks were carelully measured by the offi cer, who then went to Esqaire John It. Boose and obtained a search warrant The trail was a heavy one and the tact was soon demonstrated that no -wagon hal been used by the thieves to carry their plunder. At length the trail brought them in sight of Sam. il. Weimer's hause, where a man was discovered lounging around, w bo, upon being hailed, moved off quite lively, wnen chase was given, ending in his caplure. It was tound to be Port Weimer, who said he had come on a visit to his brother about two weeks ago, and disclaimed any knowledge of the meat transaction; he was placed under arrest and the party proceeded to search Mr. Sam. II. Weimer's dwelling, where six pieces were discovered. He was arrest ed but could not account for the presence of the meat in bis larder. Taking up the trail again it led to the dwelling of Jacob Allbright; three more pieces of bacon, which Mr. Hay Identified as bis property, were recovered, but the body of Jacob was non tt. He was traced aa far as Lazure's, in Larrimer, when the chase ended. Uo to the present, Monday, Allbright is still at Urge. As all of the meat baa not been found, the inference is that several par ties are yet undetected and mere develop ments may be expected. The Weimer's had a hearing before Esquire Bu, n, who committed them for trial. Much credit is due Mr. Hay, oflicers Shafer and Boose, for their determined efforts to arrest and bring to punisnment these gnilty parties. Mtycmlale link pew lent. . Advertisement . Th Aasaelalo Jads-caklm-. Mr. Editor. As there has already been something said in relation to th can didates for Associato Judge, I beg space in your valuable papet, to say a few words on' the same subject: The persons named for this office are all good men, and far be it from me to say aught against nne of them. But whilst I concede to each of the gentlemen tbe fit ness tne position requires, I would confine my choice to such as have tbe greater claims upon the voters of our county. imoucinii ui in i j. v. ' AvusaeiuiaD have announced him as a oandidata for Associate Judge which U a deserved com-1 plimentto tbe gentleman as weU as a mark ' of credit to his friends, Mr. M. Is a man' of well known ability and integrity, and I may add, has claims upon the voters of Somerset county which should not be over looked. Ue is not a politician in the modern sense of the term, and cannot but be averse to the usual button-holing and hand shaking process usually resorted to for the purpose of cjoling men into voting tor him. lie would prefer to fall upon hi i own nvrits, rather than sueeppd by resorting to any species- ot trickery. j Thirteen years ago the citizens of this county made him their representative at Harrisburg where ha served them faithfully and well a term of two years, during the heat ot the great rebellion, when the sessions of the Legislature were long and hot. When the great Ituilroad King came riding rough-shod into the halls oi that body, Mr. Musselman stood firmly by the interests ot the pcoplo and aided with all bis power tbo effort to re store the "Tonnage Act," the repeal of which the year previous took millions of dollars out of tlie State Treasury and placed it in tbe pockets of a powerful cor poration. Y hen tue oki charter or tne rutsotirg & Connelsville Railroad was repealed he stood fearlessly, almost alone, by tbe char ter, and defended it with his vote and j sceches, when our Senators and Repre sentatives along the line, east and west, had succumbed to tbe great power. The only thing in the bill, as passed over his protest, favorable to Somerset county waa Mr. Musselman s amendment compelling the new company to commence the road in three months and complete it within three years. We all know the result, litigation commenced, Uie time was extended by the Legislature and we were bound band and toot until the Supreme Court decided the act unconstitutional, thus vindicating the course Mr. M. bad pursued. The "Inland Telegraph Bill" as it was then called was given into his cliargc by the company, and he succeeded hi haviug it passed against a strong opposition. From this bill grew out nothing less than the great Telegraph which now passes through the centre ot our county, and forma that grand net-work of communi cation throughout the State. During Mr. Mussleman's stay at Harris burg all the laws Somerset county wanted were passed and the interests of our people were most faithfully guarded. True, be made himself odious to the political leeches of both parties by his persistent opposition to all unnecessary extravagance and mon strous appropriations. His opposition to the removal of (be State Capitol and to the increase of salaries generally, espec ially to the salaries of the members then in office from $700 to $1000, the latter sum being the amount all his succcsscrs have received, would naturally make him him unpopular with the "roosters" and pinchers. 1'he record of his public life is clean aad shows that he stood at all times like a vigilant sentinel by the people, the soldiers and the Union. A public servant like this should not be forgotton by the people, nor should services like these be permitted to go unre quited. In his prlvbto life Mr. M. is well known as a public spirited, industrious, enter prising larmer and christian gentleman, and in every way worthy of the earnest support ot every man in Somerset county. The "conscientious scruple" question has been raised against him, which is a foul inirepreae Ration: he has always maintained the popular opinion on that question and does so still. He has proven it on a former occasion to the satisfaction H all, by sixteen of the best citizens of Somerset township and borough, and can uo so again tt necessary. A Voteii, Oateaainl.

By steam and horse cars, wan present faculties, 20,000 per sons per hour can reach the exhibition Irom any part of the city of Philadelphia. If it is necessary 40,000 persona per hour can be moved; tares, six and a quarter and nine cents. Tbe exhibition transfer com pany, limited, whose agents w ill be on all passenger traius lo transfer by carriages passengers within a limit of four or live miles for fitly cents each, baggage at like reduced rates. Hundreds ot hacks, car riages and omnibus companies, as well as private individuals, will perform the same service at the same rate. One minute af ter the arrival ot trains on all main lines entering Philadelphia passengers can be within the exhibition. We confidently expect that during the year thtt railroads of tue United States wilfmakesucn further reduction m their rates as will enable every person to visit the exhibition at a very small expenditure, and thus nut the opportunity within reach of all. Incident ally we note as an evidence of this the tact that the Pennsylvania railroad has order ed a train between New York and Phila delphia at the rate of $2 tor tbe round trip. The sanitary condition ot Philadel phia is good, national amusements have been provided. Arrangements tor pro tection Irom lire, thieve, etc., are as near ly perfect as it is possible in a great city. Within the exhibition every precaution has been taken for the safty, comfort, hap piness and pleasure of the public. The buildings of the exhibition are In order. The exhibition will promptly open on the 10th of May, and is an assured fact. All preparations have been made on a gigantic scale. Philadelphia and her citi zens have spent millions in preparing tor the reception and care of gucsbf. There is no disposition or evidence of extortion. Increased business at usual rates is con sidered sufficient compensation tor the vast amount of capital and labor expended. Living is as cheap, if not cheaper, than in any large city in America. Accommoda tions are unsurpassed. All grades of so ciety can be accommodated. ( Railroad and .transportation facilities arc unequalled. It now needs but the presence ot the pub lic lo crown with triumph the greatest in ternational exhibition in history, commem orating the 100th anniversary of the na tion's life. Acting tor the government and the people, we invite aU to aid by their presence no less than by their . ex hibits, and to come from all parts of tk world and meet us at tbii assemblage ot tbe nations of the earth. 1 ' ' (Signed) J.
