When a child begins to read it becomes
delighted with a newspaper because it reads
of names and things which are familiar.and
it will progress accordingly. A newspaper,
in one year, is worth a quarter's schooling
to a child. Every father must consider that
information is connected with advancement.
The mother of the family, being one of its
heads, and having a more Immediate charge
of the children, should herself be instruct
ed. A mind occupied becomes fortified
against the ills of life, and is braced for any
emergency. Children amused by reading or
study, are of course more considerate and
more easily managed.
The most cotiuuous snow storm of
the winter has been experienced
during the past week. Thesnow commenc
ed falling Tuesday eveuing and came down
steadily without cessation till Monday
morning. The ground is at present covered
with several feet of snow and from the ap
pcarace or the skies it is not all down yet.
During the most of the time a raw, cold
wind prevailed, which drifted the snow in
some places many feet deep. The storm
was entirely free from thunder and light
ning and in consequence the Collector's of
fice still remains unscathed. But then it is
not the 1st of May.
An exchange says : "Newspapers that

in return jfn the, benfit it is the duty of
every citizen or the place to lass tne paper
and pay for it, and "of every man, engaged in
business to advertise in its colmns. If the
residents of a town would feel their respon

would thereby be enabled to more beneficent
ly aid in building np and advertising the

Zimnannan. a little lad about fourteen
years of age, who has been living with Dr.
Bmbakcr for some time past, went to the
mill in company with Master Russcl Ulil, a
young son of John II. I'hl's, Esq.,. to get
some corn. In -the mill is a patent corn
heller, run by steam ; the boys were al
lowed to shell their corn in this shelter, aud
hiving finished the belt was removed from
the wheel but still remained around tbs
shaft. The shaft revolving at the rate of 170
revolutions per minute. After the belt had
been removed from the wheel it still con
tinued to revolve around the shaft. Zim
merman in attempting to prevent this put his
foot on the belt when it was caught in a loop
which it. the belt, had formed and was rapidly
whirled around the shaft a number of times.
His right leg was torn completely off from
the knee and he was thrown violently to
the floor some distance from the machine.
Each time that he was drawn around his
head struck a bag of corn, which was stand
ing against a post, had it not been for this
his brains would have been dashc.f out
against the post.
Mr Josiah Zimmerman, who was in
another part of the mill,, hearing the lad
scream" rushed to the scene of the" secident
here he found the boy in the condition
above stated. Mr Zimmerman ran to the
door and called for assistance, by the time
he returned the boy had gotten np on his
one foot and was trying to crawl along the
wall. He was placed in a wagon and taken
to Dr. Brubaken residence, where the Doc
tor assisted by Dr. Kieruan amputated the
leg midway between the knee and hip-joint,
The little fellow's sufferings can better be
imagined than told, but everthing that at
tention and kindness could do was done to
alleviate his suffering. He is still lying in
a very critical state at Dr. Brubakcr's resi
dence.

A Washington letter to the Philadelphia
Timet, says :
The only twe ladies of the new Cabinet
circle whom I hear mentioned as likely to
enjoy the social features of their positions
are Mrs. MacYeagh and Mrs. Robert Liu
coin, . The latter is the youngest of the
number, and made ber debut here while
her father was Senator. She was then
scarcely old enough to go into society. A
relative of hem tells me that Mrs. Lincoln
made the match between her eldest son and
Senator Harlan's daughter. She saw the
young girl at the opera one evening and
was to attracted by her appearance that she
sent her a boo.net, and remarked at the time
to Senator Sumner : ''I want my son to mar
ry just such a girl as that." President Lin
coln said to the Senator: "My wife will
make a match between Harlan's daughter
and Bob ; see if she don't. She's great on
match making." I saw the couple together
at one of Mrs. Lincoln's last receptions jut
after she hsd introduced her son to the
young lady she had picked" out for him, and
have always remembered how pleased he
looked as he walked through the East
room with her. She it seems took only a
passing interest in the acquaintance until
the assassination of Mr. Lincoln so soon af
terwards filled her with sympathy for the
bereavement of his son, and so fate worked
with Mrs. Lincoln in bringing about the
marriage on which she had set her heart
and which seems to have been productive
of much happiness to those it most concerns.
Mrs. Robert Lincoln will not, her mother
tells me, come here to remain permanently
before next autumn. Some one has pri
vatelv cal'ed attention to the fact that Mrs. '
MacVcagh has had more near relatives in
high positions than any other lady now in
official life here, as she can truthfully say :
My father was a United States Senator for
many years, my brother was secretary oi
War and is a United States Senator and my
husband is Attorney General."
The eagerness with which the Commercial
man takes np the cudgels in defense of im
aginary "foul, vile attacks" made upon the
Coanty Commissioners by the Herald, is as
amusing as its unparalleled insolence and
egotUra is disgusting. He says; "These gentle
men (the Mercantile Appraisers) travel all
over the county and circulate freely among
the people, thus having every opportunity to
know which of the county papers ore most
eagerly sought after and extensively read ;
and therefore according to the tjririt, as well
as the men ' letter of the law. accord the
printing of the list to the Commercial, the
journal to whom it properly belongs."
To make the above complete he should
have added, the women sigh for it, thef bild
run cry for it, and the men die for it. Isn't
it just a little strange that if the Commercial
is so "eagerly sought after and extensively
read" tliat it does not circulate more largely
and why is it that when any of iu Somerset
editors write an article that they imagine to
be particularly strong, they are farced to
have extra copies sent them that they may
send to their friends who are subscribers of
tie Ueralb and not of the Commercial. A
little over a year ago, a gentleman of this
town remarked to us, "This tight has not
been void of expense to as, fur yon know
the HxKLii subscription list is treble and
probably four times as large ss the Conuner
aaT and it costs us not a little for extia
copies in order to duplicate the Herald's
list as near as possible."
The "eagerness" with which the one Cum
mercial that goes to Brine postoffice, Stony
creek township, is "sought after and exten
sively read" must be beautiful to behold, and
at Davidsville, where a couple of its copies
"extensively" circulate, the "eagerness" with
which they are seized upon, by the whole
of Conemaugh townshp, must be truly sub
lime. The idea of the Commercial claiming as a
right the patronage of Republican officials
is most ludicrous. But a little over a year
since, it belonged to the neuter gender and
had no political principlei viable, to tyie
public eye, atid Since" it has hoisted the Re
publican flag it nas been a constant disor
ganiser and tbe mouth piece of all those
who wished to strike at the integrity of the

Editor Herald: The concluding para
graph of an editorial on TheCollectorship,'
in last week's MeyeTsdaleCbnmnnViI,demands
s passing notice. Sayv that sheet, "J. G. Ogle,
the applicant, is a young man of more than
average ability as a lawyer, of unexceptiona
ble character as a man , capable, and a Repub
lican of the highest type." A Republican of
the highest type, is what takes the rag off
the bubh. It is well known that Mr. Ogl
has been twice rejected by the Republicans
of the county, once for District Attorney
and once for the office of Prothonotary,
The last time he became rampant, and, not
withstanding his " highest type of Republi
canism," vowed vengeance to the party and
became a Green backer, acting as secretary
at their first public meeting held la Somer
set Forthepurposeofaacertainingwhowere
ready and willing to betray the Republican
party on the ere of an important election, by
opposing the usages of the same and tramp
ling upon tUem.lists were made in every sec
tion of the county and sent to Somerset This
same J. G. Ogle, this " highest type of Re
publicanism," wss designated as the custo
dian of these infamous lists, whereby tbe
extent of treason within the party was to be
reckoned. No one of the leading Green
backers and soreheads at that time question
ed, for a moment, his fitness for the iniqui
tous work. His boa, Gen. Wm. H. Kooptz,
no doubt had him in training already at
that early day for tbe "Collectorship,n in
stilling into him the spirit of this " highest
type of Republicanism," whereby one be
comes M fearless in the exercise of his konat
opinions, and acts from a sincere conviction
of duty."
In this wsy we msy also account for the
General's own treachery to the party in
withholding Mr. Ogle's name at the public
meeting held in the Court House. The mo
ment Mr. Ogle refused to abide by the de
cision of the party as expressed at the pri
mary election, he became an enemy to the
party, aud his public exposure as such was
imperatively demanded. No one knew this
better than Gen. Koonts, and subsequent
events have removed all doubt in regard to
the motives which prompted him to act
false to the party, by shielding an avowed
enemy. Is this the "representative of that
element in the Republican party which is
opposed to those methods by which Repub
licanism in this state bos been brought into
public contempt 7" His record is proof pos
itive that he stands opposed to the primary
election, an election by the people, for which
the editor of the Commercial aflects so much
reverence. Much of the corruption which
has crcit into the primary system is tracea
ble to such "rcpresenative" characters as
Mr. Ogle, who expected to astonish the na
tives by sailing into office with one foot in
the Republican and the other in the Demo
cratic ship.
Let Mr. Ogle bide bis time until Kit party
comes into power, and we doubt not but
that be will again act in the rapacity of
Secretaire. .RbuclaR.
Ubsixa, March 31,1581.
Ed. Herald : We notice most corres
pondents, while speaking of points of in
terest in and about the National Capitol,
omit to speak of the old E. P. Church, at
Alexandria, known as "Washington's old
church."
Happening to visit Alexandria recently,
we spent considerable time in acquainting
ourself with the history of this church. We
found, by consulting the church records.
that on the first day of February, 1765,
(being the 4th George III,) by virtue of an
act passed the previous year, tbe parish of
Fairfax was formed out of a portion of
Truro. On March 28th of the same year,
twelve gentlemen were chosen as vestrymen.
Col. George Washington, who was only 33
years of age, being one the number. In a
few years need of a new church building
became apparent, and in 1766 the vestry or
dered slevy on the parish of 31.184 pounds
of tobacco, for the purpose of building two
new churches, one at "The Falls" and one
at Alexandria. In January, 1767, James
Parsons agreed to build the latter church for
(i00. A portion of the specifications may
be of interest to modern building commit
tees. The shingles were to be of the best
juniper wood, three-fourth inches thick, 1$
inches long, to show G Inches. Mortar for
outside wall to be two-thirds lime, one
third sand ; inside to be one-half lime and
one-half sand. Arches and pediments to be
of Tuscan order. Tbe alter, pulpit and
canopy of the Ionic order.
In 1772 Parsons having failed to complete
tbe church, the vestry made an agreement
with Col. John Carlyle for an additional
sum of 220. On the 27th of February, 1773,
the building was formally delivered to the
vestry. One the same day ten pews were
offered for sale. Col. Washington purchas
ed pew No. 5, for the sum of 36 10s., the
highest price paid. (Visitors to the old
church, especially the ladies, seem anxious
to seat themselves in Washington's old pew.)
The vestrymen had power over matters of a
civil nature. By this decree the tith col
lector went forth to levy apon every land
owner in the parish. The. bound appren
tices to their masters, and indentures of the
same were duly recorded on the vestry
books. Fines lor penal offenses were im
posed by them. Thus, Thos. Lewis, hunt
ing on the Sabbath, 5.
Upon tbe vestry devolved the relief of
the poor, sicK, etc .One of these items en
tered on the books in 1770 is worth mention
ing : "To Townscnd Dade, setting a poore
woman over the ferry, 24 pounds of tobac
co." In 1776 the sexton, John Rhodes, re-c.-i
ved 500 pounds of tobacco for his servic
es. The act of vestry in 1776, affords the
reader an idea of prices during the revolu
tionary war. Cloth for the poor, 5 per
yard. '
Space will not allow us to mention further
of these entries. There are two tablets of
marble placed in the center wall, one on
each side of the pulpit, one to the memory
of George Washington, the other to Robert
Edward Lee. We found fcaoy moms of
intent Mii.idci 'm 'the books, The
' Lfe's, llerbem, t lusters, etc. The writer
had the jJcasure of making the ac
quaintance of some of the deseendents of
those hiiuilu- Col. Herbert, living in
Alexandria, who belongs to the Fairfax
line, is a very pleasent gsntleman. Robert
S. Lee, is a young man of splendid physical
appearance, as well as possessing the art of
making himself agreeable.
On one of the principal streets leading
liimi the river is a large hotel ; part of the
roar of this building, a low section
with three dormer windows, is the old
"Carey House," which was occupied, u the
headquarters of Gen:rJ Dradb. The
room in which Co)."1 Washington made his,
hint appeal to Braddock, prior ty the cam
paign which resulted so distfQVisly la the
engagement of the. Uonongahela, in 1773,
remains unchanged and is worth a visit
Near this is the "Marshall House," built
upon the site of the one in which Col. Ells
worth was shot in 1061. Mao.

Ms. Editor : Thinking the public might

and managed by men of sterling integrity
snd good business qualifications. The firm
of Hartley ft Brothers is greatly increas)ti
its patronage, and huve. h ipnRg ahled

A. F. John Co., are dealing very largely
