An exchange gives the following sensible
advice to self-importaut people : " It may le
set down as a rule that no one can afford
not to be a gentleman. It is best to learn
this rule early and practice it late. It is not
w ise to treat any one brusquely, because
you cannot always judge a bird by the
feathers be has on. It is not well to look
down on anybody, because the time may
come when he will look down on you.
There is a certain self hood in every one
which should be reelected. We have no
right to infringe upon it. It is not morali
ty, it is not mere conventional rule, it is not
simply a social regulation; it is something
in the nature of things that you should al
ways show a delicate regard for others. One
w ho did not fail here was never known ut
terly to fail elsewhere."
The Burgess1 docket shows the following

William Reilly, drunk and disorderly ;'

Dennis Carey, vagrancy ; sentenced to 30

i There was aaotber arrest on the charge of
drunkenness and disorderly conduct, but the
prisoner having taken an oath to abstain

"The Vanderbilt people have also bean
exceedingly active in securing mineral and

just starting oat on a business trip and from
him several important points were obtain

geological formations of the country be
tween Harrisburg and the Youghiogheny
river, in a conversation with President Go

make this State the base of supplies from
which the manufacturing world most draw
its raw material. His land purchase all

rich in 'deposits of iron ore, coal and lime

the Pennsylvania company, furnaces are to
be located along the line of the road. A
syndicate, subordinate to the railroad syn

to locate five furnaces west of Somerset.

The AurfA Ameritan Arrow for August
opens with a very spirited discussion of the
subject of "Moral Instructions in the Pub
lic Schools," by the Rev. Dr. H. Heber
Newton, who offers practical scheme for
conveying ethical instruction without refer
ence to religious tenets, and the Rev. Dr.
Francis L. Patton, who maintains that the
Bible must be made the basis of all moral
teaching. Hwry D. Lloyd exposes the
tricks and frauds of speculations in grain,
which operate to make bread dear, and
maintains that they should be repressed by
law, as being flagrant in opposition to pub
lic policy. "Woman in Politics," by ex-
Sargeon-iieneral Wm. A. Hamuioud, ia a
caustic discussion of certain facts of nervous
organization which in his opinion render
the female sex unfit for participation in
public affairs. Hon. Francis A. Walker re
views "Henry George's Social Fallacies,"
criticizing in particular his doctrines regard
ing land-tenure and runt. The evils result
ing from "Crude Methods of Legislation,"
both national and State, are pointed out by
Simon Sterne, who advocates the adoption
of certain rules of legislative procedure,
which in English practice, have been found
to serve as an effectual barrier both against
lobbying and against the mischiefs of ill-
considered law-making. Charles F. Win-
gate writes of The I. insanitary Homes of
the Rich." and there is a joint discussion of

Mr. E. Robinson, has just put in a couple
of Red Jacket Double Action Force Pumps
at the Somerset House, that are attracting
the attention of our people, and being prais
ed on all aides as the verv best pump put
down in the County. With owe of the
pumps a boy of fourteen can throw a stream
of water distance of sixty feet. The depth
of the well makes no difference in the
height or distance to which water can be
thrown. Any of our people who want a
first-lass pump for small money will do
well to call at the Somerset House and ex
amine these or address for circulars and in

1 itroa HckALh : It seems that the Berlin
eurreapondmt of the Vteyersdale Cvmmuninl
Land a kw other of that place, art a little
dissatisfied with the treatment they received
bert on the Fourth. True onr celebration
was not what it might have been, yet we
think it was not so near being failure as
the dissatisrled Bcrliners think it was. But
why they think it such grand tailor, is
that our saloons were closed notil after din
ner, and that they expected to be nursed,
petted, and carried around on the people's
hands when here, but I think they were so
sadly disappointed that they went away
feeling that they were not angels, nor the
uiJy people that live.
. And further, " they are loud in their de
nunciations of undue advantage taken of
them by exorbitant charges for meals, etc."
Well, permit me to say that there were $45
paid by our lodges to the hotel keepers for
board for a cumber of the Beriiners, and
those who had money with which to pay
for their dinners ate and said nothing, but
quite a number who, it is reasonable to
think had no money, went around sponging
and begging of some of the poor people to
feed them, to which latter class I think the
CvwuttrrruiTt correspondent belongs.
He further says that we called on a gen
tleman of that place to take charge of the
management of affairs. Well, if such was
the case, is it wonder that it was such a
failure as he imagines ? As to Berlin's swe-
cess iu her former celebrations, and what
success her future ones will be, it is for the
people to judge. For those of the past, I
would say that they wereofsach insiguiti-
not
i"S
uce that they have invariably been pro
nounced failures and more of nioney-mak-
g schemes than the one in question, for
those who were in attendance from this
place say that they had to stand to a table
of cold victuals and pay one dollar for such
as they could get thereon.
As to his announcing a celebration lor
next year, I think it ts a plan indicative of
great wisdom, on account of its being neces
sary to have ample time to prepare for a
celebration which, when compared with
pygmies will be oh, so great in the minds
of the Beriiners, and especially in the mind
of the Commercial t correspondent.
In conclusion, I would say that if Berlin
has many such nincompoops as the Omuaer-
ciaT correstKmdent they had better erect an
asylum, as such would be a fit place for
them. . . !'
.V'-ystuwa, July 23, 18S3.
The America Ajriculturitt foi July gives
the following timely advice which fits this
section. The citizens of our county know
too well the terrible efiect of these fires.
Read it. "There i a great loss every see son
by individuals owning wood lots, and to
the public, from carelessness or design in
handling fire. In the summer drouth the
leaves and fallen limbs become like tinder.
and theci-ar stump or emtied pipe, the
brands from a camp fire or picnic party, are
enough to kindle a great conflagration.
Fires are often started from the sparks of a
railroad engine, from carelessness in burn
ing brush, or from mischievous boys, just
to see the blaze. There is much loss to the
owner of the foreut burnt over, in trees kill
ed, in fuel and fences consumed, and in the
wealth of leaves and mould burned and
dissipated. The forest does not recover ns
when it is cut with an ax. It remains for
years a blackened desolation in tne land
scape In roust cases the whole neighbor
hood suffers from the reduetion of the area
of the forest, already too small to husband
the rainfall, and protect the springs and
rivulets, that feed the rivers. This great
public evil should have the immediate at
teution of the law makers. , ;
I would respectfully Infonn my friends of
Somerset county that I have opened a new
drug store at 232 Main Street, Johnstown,
Pa., where I would be pleased to see them.
My stock consists of Pure Drugs, Chemicals.
Patent Medicines, Dye Stuffs, Perfumery
and Fancy Goods generally. At this season
I would all attention to the Insectrades,
such as I'ure Paris Green, Pure Powdered
White Hellebore, Persian Insect Powder,
etc.. When in need of anything in the
drug line couie and see me or write for
prices. All inquiries cheerfully answered.
Chas. GaixriTH
232 Main Street
Nots This If any of our readers have
private receipts for liniment, family medi
cines, horse powders, et., that they desire
to have comiounded, they will do well to
consult Camplwll, the Druggist, 2tU Main
street Johnstown. His stock of drugs, dye
stuffs, etc., are not only fresh but pure, and
his prices reasonable. His aim is to please
hia customers, and he knows that the way
to do this is by selling strictly pure goods at
leasonaltle figures. Don't forget the name
and number, 204 Main St., Johnstown.
Messrs. Keller Si fanner, the well known
grocers aud confectioners of this town have
added flour and feed to their business, and
propose to push it vigorously. They have
the Celebrated Vienna Flour in barrels and
sacks, as well as choice brand made by
BrinkercV Mullin.by the gradual reduction
roller process. Corn, oats and chop always
in stock. Their stock of groceries is new,
fresh and full. Mocha, Java, and all other
grades of fine coffee specialty. The purest
and best confectionery in the market. Best
brands of tobacco and cigars always on
band.
Wvmid! Everybody to know that I
have greatly improved the Somerset Steam
Mills. I am now prepared to manufacture
Flour that will give good satisfaction, war
ranted pure aud wholesome. All I ask is a
fair trial. I keep constantly on hand a large
stock of Soar, corn meal, and all kinds of
chop, which I will sell at bottom prices for
cash. Mv stock is always fresh ground.
You will save money by buying your flour
and feed from me, which will be delivered
to any part of the town free of charge, every
Monday and Thursday. Orders by mail
promptly filled.
Respectfully,
