Inuring the past week a numU r of eastern horse buyer were in town and succeded in gatheriug up several large droves of very fine horses. The prices paid were generally satisfactory, "being considerably in excess of those paid for several years. The hard enit which formed on the top of the ano w, aflorded lots of sHrt for the small boy with his states. The Court House yard was alive with them all day Saturday, and many of their antic excited considerable amusement for passers by.

The accident was caus ed by the breaking of a box of a coal hop per heavily ladened with ore for the Cam bria Iron Co., caaidng it and the hopper at tache.! to it to jump the track. The wreck The Mt. Pleasant Timet is resiiousihle for the following : "Persons from Laura! Hill rejiort a queer story from that section. A gentleman from there remarked to a well- kuown citizen of this place that they had a fall of black snow on the ridge one day last week. The snow fill to the depth of half was cleared and early Saturday morning as ! an inch in various places, and instead of the train was proceeding upon lta way to Johnstown, when near Kauffman's tun, a second box broke throwing a hopper and the caboose attached from the track. No one was hurt in aither accident. The term for which Mr. Josiah Keller had been elected Chairman of the Republi can County Committee, expired on Tuesday evening, and ex-Sheriff Geo. W. Pile was unanimously chosen to be hia successor. During the two years which Mr. Keller fill ed the position of Chairman, he dischaged the rather onerous duties of the ofliec iu a manner highly cruditable to himself and one which meets with the approbation of all true Republicans. To his uutiring energy, more than that of any other one man. is due the credit for the glorions victory achieved in the county last fall. He retire from the office with the sincer thanks of hi fellow Repulicans, who will ever hold h'm in grate ful remembrance for the unselfish maimer in which he at all times so faithfully and earnestly labored for the best interests of the party. It will lie pleasant intelligence to many Republicans in the county that so worthy a successor to Mr. Keller has been chosen. In ex-Sheriff Pile they have a Chairman whose staunch Republicanism is known of all men, and a man who is honored and trusted by all. - At the Farmers I'nion Association and Fire Insurance Company, of Somerset coun ty, Fa., the following officers were elected for the ensuing yean President, Amos Walk er: Vice President.

Milton Allison a laborer employed in the yard of the Pennsylvania railroad at East t.iiemuugh, while engaged at shoveling allies fn.iu one of the tracks, one forenoon of last week, was struck by the pilot of an engine and almost instantly killed. Mr. Allison resided at (ireenville, Somerset county, and leaves a wife and two children to mourn his sudden death. A tall, gray-bearded, neat looking man, a;jed about 50 years, representing himself as J. W. Wilson, of Catoctin Lodge, Middle tiwn, Md., is prowling through the country swindling Odd Fellows. A letter from the" secretary of the alnive states that the man is a fraud. On some occasions he passes for W. A. Boyd, aud thus far has been doing a thriving business in the way of making charitrble collections. Owing to the excellent sleighing the at tendance at Court last week was very large. The case that excited the most interest was that of the Salisbury rioter. The trial of this case consumed all of Tuesday, Wednes day, and a part of Thursday morning. The remainder of the criminal case railed up for trial were of a trifling nature and -were quickly disposal of. Court adjourned at 11:30 a. m., Friday, to convene at T p. in., Monday. A few weeks ago in the court of common pleas ofjefferson county, a judgment was obtained against the borough of Brookville for $o.-., for damages sustained by a lady through a defective side walk, owing to the negligence of the proper authorities to have it repaired. A case of the alwve kind might happen in this place almost any time, and if the bor ough authorities don't want one on hands they had bettcrdevote a little attention to the condition of our boulevards. An aecidi-ut that might have resulted very seriously occurred at the Somerset House, Sunday night. Mr.ieorgeTayman, Jr., went to his room sometime after dark and struck a match for the purpose ofget- ing something from Lis bureau drawer. A short time afterward some one passing along the hall Miiclled something burning and ojH-ned thedoor when bediscovered theentire b'.ircaa to be iu flames. The burean con taining the young man's wardiobe was al most entirely destroyed Iwfore the flames could ho extinguished. The ShcriiT new fee bill, whicn was en acted bv the Legislature in 1x78. and went into effect on tha 1st of Jauuary,!88l, has for the Sheriff, some good features, as well as Home baJ ones. While jt reduces his fees, on an average about 2") per cent, it' allows im to demand all his fees in advance, and this will compensate him to a very great ex tent for the lovs he will sustain by the re duction. Heretofore Sheriffs have suffered very great Josses oy ueiinqueui panics, whom they for ouc reason or another, do not push, and have been In arrears.

It ia a real literv treasure house. the usually white, flaky element, it was dark in color, in some places being almost sooty in appearance. Immediately follow ing the descent of the snow, families resid ing in the neighborhood were attacked with sore throat and the younger portion with measles, which disease had until then been conspicuously absent. The theory advanc ed was, that the smoke, soot, and other im purities from the hundreds of coke ovens in this vicinity had been collected in the at inospherc, and by an unusual direction of the wind had been driven to Laurel Hill and fell mingled with a snow storm. That the measles and sore throat that followed were due lothe fact of these sooty particles collecting and retaining germs of the disease in this place and vicinity, and contaminated the atmosphere there where they fell.

Pursuant to a previously published call, the annual Re publican meeting was held in thcConrt House, in this borough, on Tuesday even ing last, the 2.)tU ult. The meeting was organized by the selec tion of Samuel Lowry, ofSalishury. as Pres ident ; W. II. Koontz, Esq., nominated George W. Pile, Esq., for Chairman of the County Committee, for the ensuing year, and I. N. Potter. Esq., placed in nomination James L. Pugh, Esq. After an informal vote, Mr. Pugh, arose and withdrew his name and moved that the election of Mr. Pile be made unanimous, which was done. On motion, Dr. II. C. McKinly, of Meycrsdale, and Ed gar Kyle, of Somerset, were selected a del egates to the next State Convention. The following resolution was then offered by Ed Scull. " HtMtlveiL, That the course pursued by Messrs. Colborn and Mier, our reprentatives in the Legislature, in participating in the Republican Senatorial caucus, abiding by its result, and since faithfully supporting Henry W. Oliver, Esq., its unanimous nom inee, merits and meets with our hearty ap probation.' Immediately John (... Ogle moved to lay j the resolution on the table, and followed with a ppeech denouncing Representative Colborn for nominating Hon. W. II. Koontz, in caucus, and voting for him but once and then by withdrawing him depriving him of being a "dark horse," in the Senitorial race, and saying that as this was j a mere business meeting the resolu tion should not havetbeen introduced. F. J. Kooscr followed, endorsing and en larging on the position taken by Mr. Ogle, asserting that if previous knowledge of the introduction of the resolution had been giv en, a far larger and different kind of a meet ing would have been held, (in which we agree with hiin) ; charging that Mr. Colborn had falsified his promise to stand by Gen. Koontz, deplored the fact that owing to his treachery Somerset county was now abso lutely without a candidate for Senator in the field ; at the same time insisting that the General was not, and had told Colborn that he would not be, a candidate, and con cluded by urging that the resolution be laid on the tabh. Mr. Koontz followed, stating that he had not been a candidate for Senator, and told those who asked biin to be that he was in favor of the election of Grow, That he had so told Mr. Colborn before he left for Harris burg, and tliat he was still for Grow. As-' serted that the resolution was a fire-brand thrown into the meeting, which was called for another purpose, believed with Mr. Kooser (list a very different kind of a meet ing would have been assembled if notice of the resolution had been given; and then pro ceeded at length to state hi objections to the caucus system, and to making any nom ination for Senator. It was evident that the gentleman was speaking against time, until flie arrival of the train with the delegation from Meycrsdale whom street rnmor had announced were coining over to capture and run the meeting, aud he accomplished his object. Dr. McKinly made a brief speech against the resolution. He didn't know that he was so much opposed to its spirit, but he didn't want to endorse our Representatives for fear that before the end of the .session they might do somctl ing that he conldn't approve. ' Mr. Scull then pjioke in defense of the res olution. He said that he believed that it was always in order to do right ; that when others had faltered it was but just that our members should be commended for standing by the right, and the usages of the party ; pointed out that the resolution had no rela tion to the grievances of Gen. KoouU's friends against Mr. Colborn, and that it sim ply endorsed the action of our representa tives in going into the regular caucus, and abiding by its result ; stating that one of the causes inducing him to offer the resolu tion was to repel the false intimation of the Meycrsdale (nmufrciu! that the Republicans of the county tood by the bolters ; and in reply to Gen. Koontz' argument against caucuses, showed that his candidate Mr. Grow and his friends at Harrisbnrg, did not agree with him. as they hold almost daily caucuses, and were fixedly adhering to their decree, and that it had been the constant custom of all parties to make Senatorial nominations in party caucus. Col. John R. Edie, then insisted on the motion to table the resolution being put; stating that he had forliorne urging it nntil Mr. Scull had the opportunity of speaking In support of his resolution. The veteran j February 8, 1S81 Mr. John P. Gardner, who had been for some seven years past employed as a sales man in Wood, Morrell A Co store latter ly in the hardware and tobacco department met with alimist instant death about 9 o'clock this forenoon, by being crushed be tween two cars on the track of the Cambria Iron Company, near the npier end of the rolling mill. The deceased went to work (his morning as a shipping clerk at the Iron Works, and the first duty devolving upon him was the counting of rails which had been loaded on a truck in the yard. While engaged in doing so he failed to notice the approach of another truck, which was be ing backed down, and before the warning whistle of the locomotive attracted his at tention he was caught by the dcadwood and crushed about the body in such a way as to cause almost instant death. This gentleman was well known to a large number of our readers, and the news of his sudden taking off will cause great surprise. Ho quit his employment in the Company Store only last evening, for the purpose of accepting the position which had beeu tendered him, and within two hours after reporting for du ty this fatal accident happened. Mr. Gardner was aged about twenty-nine years, and was married a year or so ago. 1 Ic was a very agreeable gentleman, and in the enjoyment of splendid physical health at the time when the unexpected final sum mons came Many warm friends, who knew him most intimately, will mourn his sad taking off. Some three inoaihs since Mr. Gardner 12- cuiuc a member ol an organization here kuown as the Royal Arcanum, and paid his initiation fee of eleven dollars, and as sessment of one dollar and a half. Under the rules which govern the society his wid ow will be entitled to the sum of $3,000. We take the above from the Johnstown Tribfnr of the 27th. Mr. Gardner was a for mer resident of Somerset, and was well and favorably known to many of our citizens. Before leaving here for Johnstown he had been employed as salesman in Cook Si Bwr- itsj grocery. He was the oldest son of Geo. F. Gardner. Coi ht Proceedings.

Of the Somerset County Conference, - in Trinity Lutheran Chnrch, Somerset, Pa., Tuesday evening, rcooBAHsis: Evening sesssion, 7 p. m. 1. Sermon on Missions, by Rev. J. B. i'honp; 2. Discus- To tiik Rfm ulicaks or Somerset Cntrx tt ; We have seen it announced in the Meycrsdale Omnuvn'aand in the Pittsburgh DUjmli-h that at a meeting held by the Re publicans at Somerset, on the 25th inst., Representatives Colborn and Mier wero de nounced and repudiated for their course on the L. S. Senatorial question. Whatever was done at that meeting was done without our knowledge and consent. On examing the proceeding of the meet ing, as given in the GiMmercial, it appears that a resolution was offered endorsing and approving the course of Colborn and Mier on the Senatorial question. It was claimed by the friends of Hon. U. A. Grow, that this resolution was out of order and that the meeting was called for no such purpose; whereupon a motion was made and carried to lay the resolution on the table. Bulwe are informed that in the discus sion of the question, Messrs. J. G. Ogle and F. J. Kooser, took occasion to vent their personal spleen upon us, esecially -upon Colborn. Well, we will try to survive all the ranting and ravings of such hypocritical friends. But we do not propose that the result of that meeting shall be construed in to an endorsement of bolters and kickers, and a condemnation of us, without those thus claiming, placing themselves fairly and squarely on the record with a full ' knowl edge of all the facts. We were nominated and elected as Re publicans by Republicans, and one of the duties we were expected to perform was the election of a U. S. Senator. We were not only expected, but pledged, publicly and privately, to go into the Republican caucus and assist in the nomination as well as elec tion of a Senator. The question now is, was it our duty as Republican Representa tives of Somerset county to go into the cau cus of the party for the nomination of a Senator? And having gone Into the cau cus is it our duty to stand by the party and the man who was fairly and honestly made the nominee ? The question is whether the Republicans will stand by the party and its organization and nominee, or whether they will forsake the party, abandon its organi zation, and endorse and sustain the bolters aud kickers. The Republicans of Somerset county have some knowledge and experi ence of bolts ; we had one iu the county in 187S, and what was the result ? the defea' of our nominees for Congress and State Sen ator, and who was first, and loudest, and most fierce, and bitter in denouncing the bolters and kickers? The Hon. W. H. Koontz, and all the people said Amen And the position taken by at least one of your Representatives in that memorable cam paign will not soon be forgotten by the Re publicans of Somerset county. And there is not a Republican in the county to-day, who took part in the bolt and kick of 1873 and adhered to it, that is not politically dead and damned as a Republican. If the gentlemen who were most conspicu ous in the mecting,and who were most fierce in their denunciation of us, are desirous of having resolutions passed denouncing us and endorsing the Grow-Wolf bolters and kickers, let them call a meeting of Republi cans for tliat purpose, at which such a reso lution will be in order. Don't dodge the is sue. We desire to doour duty and to repre sent our constituents honestly and fairly, and if we are misrepresenting the great Re publican party we ought to know it. What has made the Republican party what it is, but its organization ? What has enabled it to accomplish more in twenty years in advancing the interests of the American people, than all other parties from the organization of the government, but its organization ? Destroy its organization and you destroy the party. There is not a gen tleman who has ever held an office under the Repulican party in the county or dis trict that did not obtain it through its or ganization, its caucuses, aud conventions. We feel bound by every sense of of honor and justice to stand by the party and its nominee in the Sentorial contest, and v.e will never submit to the dictation of Wilt ing and kicking minority. There is no bolt ing and kicking in u. But if we cannot honestly and fairly rep resent our Republican constituent, and are now misrepresenting them, we will resign our scats and go home whenever requested to do so by those who sent us here, but we are not disjiosed to dishonor ourselves and the Republicans of Somerset county at the dictation of a few captious gentlemen, would lie leaders, and statesmen, who are bent on mischief for selfish purposes. The men referred to, who in the meeting charged us with being false to (Jen. Koontz ; charge'dwhat is'absolutely untrue. We nom inated Gen. Koontz and voted for him, hut seeing that he could only get onr votes, his name was withdrawn ; but can be voted for in the joint Assembly at any time, by any one who chooses to do so. A previous nom ination is not necessary. There were no nominations in the convention. Very Respectfully, A. J. Colborx, San. Mi tn. It is with some reluctance, which many of our readers will understand, that we ad mit the followingcommuiiicntton ; but as it has been widely published that the ret ion of our members of the Legislature i:: stand ing by the nominee for Senator as con demned, it fa due them that the political standing of the gentlemen who engineered the meeting, and sided with t:.e bolters should be fully known. Ed. SroxTcnF.ric, Jan. 20, i:wi. Kurro IIekald : In glancing over last week's Meyersdale Cummerciu!. m-nttention was arrested by the leading editc al in ref erence to the meeting In the cm" house, on the 25th Inst. ''Instead of this Col. Scull, editor of the IIekald, introduced a resolution endorsing the action of our representatives in sup porting II. W. Oliver, jr., the caucus nomi nee for U. S. Senator. This created a de cided sensation. J. G. Ogle, Esq., sprang to his feet, and moved that the reso lution be tabled, which was promptly sec onded." The eternal fitness of things, in selecting J. G. Ogle, Esq., 4-to spring to his feet," will appear by recalling a little history. Several years ago the jiolitiuil field was full of can didates, and the interest manifested iu the primary or nominating election equaled that of a regular Presidential contest. After the result had been made known by the returns from the various precincts, several of the defeated candidates, Galusha-Iike, liolted or kicked, and would not be comforted. I'n- dcr the leadership of Turner, Walker & Co., they issued a call for a meeting to be held in Somerset, for the purpose of nominating unobjectionable men for the different of fices, that is unobjectionable to the minority. Persuaut to that call they met, and for the purpose of deceiving the unwary, and as suming an air of honesty they denominat ed themselves the ''Greenback Ijibor Re form Tarty." J.GOgle, Esq., the fellow who "sprang to his feet" last week ami ob jected to a resolution endorsing the action of our representatives in supporting the reg ular nominee of the party for l S. Senator, acted as secretary of that meeting. It will be remembered that J. G. Ogle, Esq., the fellow who "sprang to his feet" last week, had been weighed at that prima ry, as he had been once before, and found wanting. This lack of weight convinced the fellow that he belonged to the minority, and that his sphere of action was limited to that of crying, Galusha-like, "down with inavhine rule." It will also be remembered that Goiieral Koontz read extracts from a letter, at a meeting in the court house, written by Tur ner, giving instructions in reference to pro curing lists of bolters throughout the coun ty. In the goodness of his heart, or for some other reason, the General omitted, or forgot to iuform the meeting that these lists of names were to be sent to J. G, 0,;!e, Esq., the fellow who "sprang to his feet" last week in the interest of reform. If we have said anything at variance with the truth of history let J. G. Ogle, Esq., "spring to his feet" and deny it. Aext weclc we will have a won! to say about F. J. Kooscr, Esq., the man who made the "ringing speech." Kil l LE. DIED. W1I1TE.SKI..

The week of prayer was observed in the Lutheran Church of this place, and special interest was manifested, judging from the large attendance and the deep feeling which pervaded the meetings. A general desire was expressed to continue the meeting after the week of prayer. The meeting was con tinned every night for two weeks. Every night, except two or three, extra seats had to be provided to accommodate the large audiences. While the house was crowded the best of order prevailed during . the en tire meeting. The meetings were conducted with due respect to the divine injunction, "Let all things be done decidedly and in or der," and in accordance with the reeommen dation of the discipline of the church Stress was laid upon the proper use of the divinely appointed means for the convcr- ! sion of sinners and the revival of church 'members, viz: "God's word faithfully ! preached and prayer for the gift of the Holy ... . . . . , , i Uuost to mane iiic n oru tua-iuai.
