LOCAL AND PERSONAL
"That Same old Coon." Our friend
Foster, who can keep a hotel and who
keep one, on Tuesday last turned his
attention to the business of hunting game
He was accompanied by a Mr. M'Cartney,
who has been sojourning in our midst "a
low Jays," and between the two they
La 1 one shot-gun. On arriving at the
wools near Cresson, the party separated.
Foster cast about him for a few minutes,
aud soon discovered on the limb of a tall
tree, what he supposed to be a wild-cat.
lie immediately summoned his compan
ion, who, on arriving, took aim and fired,
raid" down came a coon. (Foster then saw
clearly that he had been mistaken in sup
I"siiig that the coon was a wild-cat.)
Looking up again, another coon was seen
on a higher branch of the same tree.
This coon was brought down by the same
process as the lirst. Xot satisfied, the
party ngaiu looked up, and strange to
gay on the very tip-top of the same tree,
another coon was seen to display his mag
nificent proportions. It required five
shots (a great many shots to each shot)
1 1 Iniiig this last-named coon to the earth ;
but when he did come, "Oh, what a fall
wis there, my countrymen !" Foster and
his companion looked yet again, but in
vain ; the third coon was the charm.
several squirrels now had the imjmdenee
t make themselves conspicuous in that
lt.:ilitv, but so elated were our friends
.;in uic'.r success in me business oi cap
turing coons, that they treated the squir
rels with supreme contempt, not caring to
rjste their ammunition on such small
irui.ie. The coons were then unceicuio
.iou-ly gathered up, and brought home
t . tin' Arcade, where they remained on
exhibition until yesterday morning. They

lArriving at the out.-kiits of the place, we
r-'irtic-l off to the left, and from that time
the sun had almost made "a glorious
J"'-" we amused ourselves in traversing
inus and dales which abound in that
region, holding ourselves in
a l iifrs at all times to vanquish every
Jvuriiiiiit that might have the hardihood to
jTo-s our path. After a full day's work,
!"evcr, we came to the deliberate con
'usi'tn that the war of extermination upon
! '.h we had entered, had proven to be
'it a partial success, giving us little hon

ji'.tors belong the spoils," we gathered up
i'.l that we had taken, ami returned home

he careful. As now is the season 1
when conflagrations do most occur, from I
the fact that, since cold weather has set
in, fires are being kindled in chimneys
uui- useu since the beginnim of
summer.
and many consequently being out of re
pair, too much caution cannot be taken in
seeing that .you are secure from their rava
ges. Examine well the condition of your
flues before putting up stoves; see that
everything about them is in working or
der or you may repent of it too late.
The hard-earned savings of a lifetime may
be swept off at one fell blow, and you and
your family be reduced to poverty left to
uegin anew the contest with the stern
realities of an unfeeling world. Above
all, you should get a our property in
sured. You would then have something
left to fall back upon, something to "ive
you a new start in life, in case of such an
event happening. Don't you perceive ?
Daily Paper. Maj. Thomas A. Ma
guire and Col. John CJ. Given two of
Cambria's noblemen who recently went
West, have turned up at Davenport, Iowa,
as editors and publishers of the Daily Dem
ocrat and Xvirs. We have seen a num
ber of their paper, and need only say that,
in appearance as well as in matter, it is
entirely in keeping with the high charac
ter which .Messrs. M. & (I. have hereto
fore sustained among the People of our
State as editors and publishers. We wish
them abundant success.
P. S. If our friends should desire to ex
change with T!,e AU.yhauian, we will be
i . . , "
"f'iv l" accommodate them, not ear
ing to charge them the difference in price
between their daily and our weekly.
Where to get Stoves. E. Glass, of
the Ebeti.-burg l'uundry, has always on
hand, and for sale, an extensive assort
ment of these cold-weather luxuries, both
of his own manufacture and from the city.
His stock also comprises plows, plow
points, thrashing-machines, and other ar
tieles generally manufactured in a Foun
dry. He sells cheap.
George Huntley, of the Hardware Store,
has also just received a large lot of Stoves,
and other needful articles in his line, to
which ho invites the attention ot purcha
sers. sells cheap, too.
So that, when you wish to buy a stove,
or anything that way, call on one of the
above, and you will be suited to a nicety,
both in quality and price.
A Present During a recent visit to
the miniature city of Wilmore, we called
in to see our friend, John M'Colgan, Esq.,
and iouud him engaged as usual in the
business of supplying his numerous cu
tomcr.s with cheap Goods. The weather
be
i.ig cold, and the fact of a ten-mile
drive staring us in the face, wc concluded
to invc.-t in a pair of gloves. After an ex
amination of the stock in that line, we
made what we consider a happy selection.
But when we came to sock up .John
wouldn't take "nary red." For his kind
ness he has our thanks ; and wc assure
him that the gloves have several times
irice kept our hands warm but not as
warm as his heart.
Boots and Shoes. Winter is coming
and with its advent will be a demand
for good Boots and Shoes. Those who
have not yet made their purchases in this
line, should do so forthwith. Meshac
Thomas, on High street, opposite the
Post Office, has a good supply of these ar
ticles on hand, which he will dispose of
very cheap. Thomas B. James has also
opened a shop in the western end of town,
where his friends are requested to give
him a call. They have each a corps of
good workmen in their employ, ami being
masters of their art themselves, are com
petent to give entire satisfaction.
Johnstown Tin and Stove Depot.
We take pleasure in announcing to our
readers that Herrington & Co., have just
received at their tin and stove depot, a
large stock of stoves and tinware of all
kinds, which they will sell as cheap, whole
sale or retail, as can be purchased in the
city. Any of our Merchants wishing to
buy a good stock of puch articles, will do
well by calling upon our friends in Johns
town. They will insure every article
that is taken away from their store to be
of trood material, and made in the neatest
and most workmanlike manner. Adver
tisement next week.
Snow. As we went to press last week,
it was snowing briskly. The skift which
then fell, however, left about as soou as it
came. But on Saturday last, we had a
supply of the article which lasted over
Sunday, during which time the air was
remarkably cold. Since then Old Sol has
made his appearance occasionally, and the
weather bos been rather pleasant.
lip arc rv.,. c t .i
oi iour oi tnese nox
ious varmints were seen during last week,
within a short distance of this place. A
number of the sharp-shooters of our towu
and township went out with a fixed deter
mination of bringing them to market, but
they didn't altogether succeed in effecting
their purpose. There was some talk of
having a regularly organized bear hunt.
but we believe it has all ended in talk.
Ihese bears might be taken captive, if
tney were surrounded after the manner
that Paddy did the stump.
ew Goods. A. A. Barker has just
received, at the new building he has late
ly erected, on High street, one of the lar
gest and most extensive, and cheapest and
most varied assortment of Dry Goods,
Groceries, etc., ever brought to Ebensbur
It will be perceived, by reference to his
big double-column advertisement, found
elsewhere, that he fully understands the
beauties of the sublime science of adverti
sing, as well as the art of catering success
fully to the tastes of the public which
tact alone speaks volumes in his praise.
Let there be Light. Thomas De-
vine, Esq., the gentlemanly proprietor of
the Ebensburg Drug Store, has, in con
nection with his other business, opened
out an establishment for the manufacture
of Caudles. 1 'om has the rermtation of
never doing things by halves, and we
hit'jio that he makes good candles, from
the fact that we have tried them. He is
prepared to sell by the box or single
pound, and a little cheaper than can be
bought elsewhere. Purchasers should
make a note of this.
Married. At the residence of Mr.
A. lain, in this place, on the ISth in.st.,
by Rev. S. E. Dabcock, Mr. Annanias
Fortune to Miss Mary Lorimcr, all of
Johnstown.
Our prayer U, that Fortune may always
smile upon this most Fortune-ate pair.
But- it will be hardly possible for them to
sail entirely over life's fretful current with
out having an occasional little 3iiss-I'or-tune.
Dickens' Novels. Another number
of these deservedly popular works was is
sued on last Saturday, by the enterprising
firm of T. B. Peterson & Bios, who are at
present engaged in republishing them in
pamphlet form. Everybody should pur
chase the whole series, as the price five
dollars for the twenty-eight volumes is
within the reach of all.
LrFT Towx. Our friend .John I).
Hughes has left Eben.-burg, and gone to
Johnstown to try his fortunes anion u the
citizens of that romantic village. John
made the best Burgess our town has had
for
ma
ny a day was a good neighbor
and has our best wishes for his success in
his new place of business.
Dei-ahted. Our old friend L. S. Mont
gouiery, formerly of Johnstown, has taken
up his abode, in Milton, Pa., for the pur
pose of opening out a C! roeery. 1 le leaves
behind many warm friends in this place,
who will mourn over his departure. He lias
our best wishes. May he long live to en
joy the pleasures of this world.
Potato Rot. Some of our exchauges
speak of the potato rot as having done
some damage iu the eastern portions of
the State. We have had some reports of
the kind relative to the crops in our own
neighborhood, though we believe they
have, as a general thing, escaped the rav
ages of the "devouring element."
Wood, Mokkell & Co. The adver
tisement of this well-known firm will be
found in another column. Praise at our
hands in their behalf is unnecessary, for
everybody knows they have the largest
store, sell more goods, and at lower rates,
than any other store in Johnstown. They
deserve to be, and are, well patronized.
Fashionable Tailok. T. I. James,
(late of the firm of Hughes & James,) in
forms out readers this week that he has
commenced business "on his own hook."
He is a good workman, and will, no
doubt, have plenty of customers.
