Fri day evening when Sheriff Winters went to lock tbe prisoners up for the night, by cer tain indication he concluded tbatbis guest were contemplating taking French leave of him. Summoning his deputy to bis aid, he Ix-gaD luaking complete inspection of the prison. After a careful examination, they dixov ered that a piece had been sawed off of one of tl.e iron cell bars, and that with this the top of the water closet had been pried off ; tbe plank had been bored through with a heated poke!, and all that remained to be done was to punch out a few brick and crawl through the hole. Several of the pris oners were in irons, among tbem the color ed man, Johnson, charged with highway robbery. The Sheriff tapped with his key on Johnson' hobbles, when they fell off the rivets having been cleverly tiled with an old case-knife that was found on Johnson's per son. Had it not been for the vigilance of the Sheriff, the whole pack of prisoner would unquestionably have, escaped before losght. ill It? The Philadelphia iVcav of Fri day says : tbe Pennsylvania Railroad Com. pany only desired to effect the transfer ot the South Pennsylvania and Beech Creek properties if it could do so legally. It can now further be said that if the courts de clare the sale legal, the Pennsylvania Rail road will proceed to finish tbe South Fenn Road, and use it a a third and fourth track between Harrisburg and Pittsburgh. Some years ago the business of the Pennsylvania required the construction of four tracks be tween New York and Harrubure, and the company has been gradually making this improvement. It is ouly a question of time when the same facilities will be necessary between Harrisburg and Pittsburgh, if it has not already arrived, and it was no doubt all along the intention to use the South Penn sylvania for this purpose. The new road will open a new country, and it would be more economical for the Pennsylvania to build its third and fourth track on the line already graded, and known as the South Pennsylvania, than to construct them in close proximity to the present double-track road. The South Pennsylvania is some dis tance shorter than the old Pennsylvania track from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh, and the Pennsylvania lines southeast of the lat ter city could be used to advantage it tbe courts allow the arrangement to be carried out. This seems to be the only feasible plan of building the South Pennsylvania. If the courts should deny tbe rigbt of the Pennsylvania to purchase, it is not now likely that Mr. Yamlerbilt would car to build the road, and his associates in the South Pennsylvania syndicate would not continue the enterprise witu mm in view oi his alliance with the Pennsylvania. ask Ball. The Jeunertown nine, com posed of young men from Jennertown and Johnstown, but all claiming membership with tbe Jennertown olub, came over to Somerset Friday morning, and in the after noon did the " Glades" of this place up in brown paper The game was one-sided from the start, and, after the first few innings, without interest. The "Jenners" have a good battery, are strong batters and fair fielders. The " GlaJeS " were unable to hit their pitcher, while they batted Houpt un mercifully. The score at the close of the ninth inuing stood 2i to 12 in favor of Jen ner. The game was umpired by H. S. Ends ley, Esq., in a very satisfactory manner. A large crowd ot people witnessed the game. It is but just to the -'Glades" to state that one of their strongest players went west aev era! weeks ago, and another of their regular players was unable to take part in Friday's game, both places having to lie filled by substitutes. At the close of the game Friday the" Rail roaders" challenged the "Jenners" for a game, to be played the following Saturday, afternoon. The challenge was accepted and tbe time for the game fixed at 1 o'clock. About 1 1 o'clock Saturday morning a heavy rain set in, and kept up for several hours. All hopes of playing that day were about abandoned, when towards three o'clock the clouds broke, and the skies began to clear. A team was at once set to work to haul saw dust on tbe field, and by four o'clock the grounds were in pretty fair condition. The gaoie was not begun until half-past four o'clock, owing to some unavoidable delay. Only four innings were played, when it be came too dark to see the ball, and game was called. At tbe close of the fourth inning the " Railroaders " bad scored 15 and tbe "Jenners" l' runs. About three hnndred people were an the grounds, and. notwith standing the cold and dampness, most of them kept their places till game was railed. Tbe Jen ner el ub is com posed of a jolly set of young fellows, who enjoyed themselves while here, and their visit was greatly en joyed by tbe honie club, although they Aid get badly left A game has been arranged to take place on Saturday, the 19th. between tlie " Rail roaders" and "Jenners," at Jennertown. Should the weather prove favorable a large crowd will go aver to witness the game, which promises to be a very interesting one. Emtoi HcaALD: I thine that I have, to some extent at least "stirred up the animals" on tbe subject of the new jail . My first article appeared in yours of Aug X. Tba mountain was immediately taken with labor pains, and oo the th of August was happily delist red of a mouse of such inordinately effeminate proportions that there can scarcely be an afterbirth. That edition (bound in calf of personified thinness who is supposed to edit the Mey ersdale OnnmrrrM, goesipped at the bedside, stood god-father at the christening, and named the abortion "Plumbago Answered." I have no time to sn-T.d nursing tbe im potent wrath of the baby 'mice of the oppo sition' things that have no voice save a squeak. But seriously 1 have never seen so milk and water a production as that of 'Tax-Payer" diamified by the name of an swer to anything. A school-boy knows more than Tat-payer seems to have dream ed of. I sympathize with honest ignorance, but, when the ignoramus is not content to remain in seel usion, but parades what be calls "ideas" flaunts what he smiles at as wit, or sarcasm, in the fares of the commu nity, it is time to say something. I Shall say a tew words only in response 1 to the prayer of taxpayer for notice. I de clared Somerset jail the wor-t in the state. Tax-payer stapidly asks, ' Piil he yisittheni a!l" He does not know there is Board ef Charities in Fennsylrania who made the same declaration long ago, and only asinine stupidity wonld baee permitted Tax-payer to rush into print in the manner be has ; done; but schoolboy compositions are apt to 1 I...

Tbe fact that a man escaped from Cambria coonty jail, and tbe tact that be had only one leg. bare nothing at all to do with the question. I may cay, however, that no one will- stay in Somerset jail any longer than he pleases, whether be has one leg, two legs, or do legs. So far as high taxes are concerned, 1 ven ture the asseltioe that tbe people of Somer- set County do not know, experimentally, the meaning of the term. In some of the Eatrn toon tics the rate of taxation b cents Der onr rate mil la. Here is a rooster- iginal proposition What a world of ignorance la bereia eontekied ; listen to tlie wise man ef the 19th century, tbe Solomon of tbe age, the Solomon of Amer ica ( "Hear, 0 ye heavens, and give ear, 0 Earth!" "IM onr Letmlators peas a special act to have criminals sent to the work -boose im mediately after (heir trials and we will have no need of a better jail for a century, it- aidai fifing ti Im ycr Jnm ps rir swani and keeping tbem in enforced idle ness." (Tbe i talks are mine.) . , May tbe good Lord forever deliver me from such tolly. . - Why, this poor ignorant I Tax-payer doesn't know that th Connties having special acta permitting their crimi nals to be sent to the workhouse, roust pay for their board, etc He is ignorant of the j fact that the County of Somerset and every other couutv in the State pay a certain amount (or eatuh criminal they respectively have in the State's prison. He doesu't kuow that, when the Board of Charities re moved certain insane paupers to IMxmont j and perhaps other Asylum, the County f Somerset was held responsible for their keep, and if Poor rates are bigber.this is the reason. A man should not be blamed for igno rance. lany persona ia this world might die with the reputation of having middling sense if only their voices did not betray their asininity. How far an editor ia re sponsible under the law forbidding cruelty to dumb animals when he treat them as the Cfmmercial man treats Tax-payer, I am not able to determine. Reganling Tax-payer' strictures on the Poor Board, I have nothing to say tis'nt mv funeral the men whore names are mix- up in the matter have seen fit to keep quTet, to say nothing, to permit a poiiucai deuiagugue, a would-be prostitute to the arms of any political party that will embrace him, to bandy their names as thieves, swindlers, forgers and perjurers be fore the people, on tbe basis of an expartt report almost every item of which is sijscep tible of an honest exulanation. I can stand it if they can, and once again I say, 'tisn't my funeral. So I leave Tax -payer and turn urn im- my attention to a weakling who colls h self-Southerner," and who just aches tbe privilege of having ' Plumbago" notice him. The desperation of saying that tbe Court House privy is resjumsible for the stench al luded to is only equaled by the naivett with which the assertion is made. Bah! TheCourt House privy is thoroughly drained, and is, I l.

Kow, as to the annoyance of Gen. KoonU' CoL Scull, and others. These gentlemen own property, tine residences, and they have a rigbt to be undisturbed in the pos session and enjoymeut of what their talents and theirenergy haveaccumulated. "South erner" gets otf this bit of twaddle: " Why should a lawyer, who prefers to make bis boodle' by clearing criminals from justice. be looked after with such solicitude by the taxpayer?" Let me give him this defini tion : "Nuisance, KommmtniH, or annoyance, signifies anything that worketh hurt, incon venience, or duniage. And nuisances are of two kinds; public or common nuisances which affect tbe public and are annoyance to al! tlie kill's subjects ; for which reason we must refer them to the class of public wrongs, or crimes and misdemeanors, and private nuisances which may be defined anything done to the hurt or an noyance of the lamis, tenements, or here ditaments of another." As an example of nuisance the learned author whom I have quoted, fays: " Corrupting the air with noisome smells, for light and air are two in dispensable requisite to every dwelling" and this is precisely what tl.e County Com missioners do, or permit to be done in tbe case of Gen. Koontz, Col. Scull and others, ami it is time a little " solicitude hold be manifested by the taxpayer." The closing paragraph of " Southerner's " profound article is such a solid chunk of wisdom that mortal man cannot digest it ; listen : " When people cease "to elect idiots as justices of the peace and to employ jail birds and cut throats as detectives and po licenieu, then false arrests and imprison ment in thecountyjail will cease, certainly." Heavens and earth ! But I've somewhere seen a passage that reads something like this : " Answer not a fool according to his folly," and I shall obey tbe injunction. Now, as to the responsibility which the Sheriff incurs when the custody of prison ers is intrusted to him. and tbe means of re taining them safely are nut lurnished him. 1 have been informed by a member of the bar of Fayette county, whom I met qnite recently, that in cases iu which a prisoner " breaks jail " theSheriffis liable to action for an escape. An old resident of this town ship informed me that during the term, tiea. thinks, of Sheriff Phillippi, a young man confined for f. and b. until a sentence of the court should be complied with, broke tail and got away. Tbe person who had brought tbe prosecution against the jail-breaker commenced an action airainst Sheriff Phil lippi, and recovered in full. Xow. if the Sheriff be liable to nch "pains and penal ties," is it treating him fairly to refuse to fur nish him tbe means of safekeeping the pris oners whom crime or misfortune places in his bands ? There are certain duties which men owe to one another. The " golden rule" is just as applicable to communities as to individual- and now 1 think that from the humanitarian standpoint, from tlie j and litimt to the ground, but by almost su-! standpoint of public expediency and ecot.o- j perbnm.m efforts of the people of Trsina, my, from the standpoint of justice to public ?and some from Confluence, tbe flames were uii v,t. r.r.,.!i.Jr.. ing of the old one, built it on an te- itiS rtos. by.

The private character of the deceased is full of noble deeds, and one in every way worthy of emulation; a man with a great heart and noble impulses, tbe honor and in tegrity of whom was never questioned, but few men live in whom could be placed such implicit confidence; good and agreeable neighbor, a steadfast friend, a kind father and a faithful husband, and in bis death Brighton and vicinity lose an old and most honored citizen. He was the father of eight children, seven of whom survive him, five sons and two daughters. BrigUm km) At". S By Slander" in a Philadelphia exchange: - If you will take tbe trouble to look in the proper volume you will find that, although Somerset, with its 1,500 inhabitants is one of tbe most souther ly towns in the State, it is the highest coun ty seat in the Commonwealth, being 2 0 feet above the level of the sea : that it is higher than Cresson, and leaves Bedford several hundred feet nearer sheol ; that it is cool in the hottest of summers, and alto- 'getber a delightful place to go. on get : " . . ... u- i there by various routes, but the best wav to . . - reach the place is by the Pennsylvania Rail- T,.f' k , , 4 . . ' f.j .. Somerset 4 Cambria road to Somerset. The said Cambria is a little road which has no respect for time-tables, but a tbe distance is less than forty miles, it doesn't worry one much if tbe train is two hours late. At the Somerset House were families from Wash ington, Baltimore, Dayton, O., Pittsburgh and Allegheny City, and other well-known hotbeds. Beautiful cottages throughout the town are filled with boarders, who prolong their lives and save their money by getting summer boarding for less than $10 per week. Butter, sweet, luscious butter, sell there for 1J1 cents per pound. Bat this is foreign to my story. The South Penn Railroad sale had been tbe topic of talk at Somerset when I readied there. The new road avoids Somerset by 2i miles, because the engineers found that Som erset, one of the highest points in the State, was too low to reach without constructing an incline. Just think of U! The highest county town in the State is situated too low to be taken on the new route to the West. . . c ...... r. iou may imagine ne ooutu irona iins oen -f SWBJe lr.jn mo,;c-, o niony, of, in surveyed along a high mountain iu that sec- (and to the fiee. fall, and unlr.terniil and ea .. .. .. v. - . litlusive vrivitee ef mluimf. dtxtfiix and taaing Uon. The hummit the highest point on tE'y ' tne r4li ,r.nvn. nre-cliy, limesun the S. Jt C. road about 2J miles north of and !!ihr minerals lying an-i being under and Somerset, is oe leet Delow tlie graue oi uie ., , . ! South Penn. Of course everybody was interested in the rumors of the VanJerbilt sell-out to the Pensy, and all that. The veteran contrac tor, Tom Collins rested his big feet on the hotel balcony railing and talked much about it. He bad just returned from his monthly trip to Philadelphia and knew it all. Said Tom : "There's no doubt about it. Tbe sale is consummated and 1 am exact ing orders to shut down the work shortly of mj contract of twelve miles. I will finish four this week, and could finish tbe rest by October, but it will never be. The road is sold and don't make any mistake. The construction Company owes my firm $37, UtiO, but the contractors will be taken care of. The poor devils who will suffer are the poor, dear people over whose land thi road . . . . ... ... , is bvicj; bunt, for instance, just Deyona that knoll, lives one poor man who gave the company the right of way for nothing, such was his feelim; toward this netv railroad en terprise ; so much did he welcome it to the neighborhood. His farm is cut in three places and nearly mined. Over yonder hill Uvea a fellow who bad to move his house. The jury awarded him i'J toO. He built a new house, but hesitates about moving the old one ; consequently, he has not got his monev and hi farm ia cut thromrh in two lace , coald te vou of miuiv si.mI i cases. The hardship of this sale will be great on the poor farmers, and it is no wonder they are setting up a bowl." Somerset is the lamented Jere Black's old home. Here he first served in an official ca pacity District Attorney, by appointment and here he first sat as Judge, and I am told he loved the spot better than any oth er in tbe land. I may give you some un published anecdi.tes about the old Judge in a subsequent article. 1 Kii rroB Hkkald: Tbe town of I'rsiua has been visited by fire bugs of late. On the morning of the first, at about six o'clock, fire was discovered in the warehouse of Mr. B. F. Snyder's new store building. Every effort was made to save the building and the goods, but the flames soon communicated with other buildings close by, and four buildings, three of them belonging to Sir. Snyder, and one to Chris. Koontz,were soon licked u u by tbe flames. Some of tbe goods in the store were saved, hut not many of t them. Mr. Scyder is only lightly insured. In the afternoon of the same day a stable belonging to Mr. John H. Benford,wa fired doubt leu set for the purpose of barninjr down that block of buildings of which the lrniHiUr,.n..rt I.yons Howe form ft rrt. iu.,,ti .I.,-. 1. .1. .11 v.: u .V 44 V Ul- UK IIIKU1 UIIV Hill I4ril.l The last two flro did hut little damage to property as the building destroyed was n A f niuch value, and it is believed that thev were fired to draw the people away from the bnvinrss portion of tbe town. X;kiht watchmen are petroling the town every night and last night a number of shots were fired at parties caught in places where honest people should not be at sncb a tjnie, bnt all the parties made their escape bv run ning and hiding themselves. There is no dne to the perpetrators of theerime. There w a deep feel in; of indignation. X. Confluence. Pa., September 4th, CowrLCince ima. ? The cry is oil, oil. oil.
