List of Causes. Sometime since, an
crier was made by the Court authorizing
ttUJ directing the publication of the trial
in all the county papers, the expenses
whereof wci e to be paid out of the county
To this arrangement there could
be u) objection, at leaatou the part of the
jriuiers Uat it scerus that the County
LYiumisaluucrs, who, in sucJt cases, do
uarJ the Treasury with an argna eye,
tiilu't altogether like to have the funds
j.uauJcreJ iu that foolish way j and the
result was, that, at our last argument

other patriotic lawyers, obtained a re

MTSTr.nioL.s Disappearance. The
Uv. T. L. Keesey, who, we believe, was

i TV Highly esteemed and respected by the
iUseus of that place, has recently very

'I'I'tt -kesiens are felt by his wife and
sriends on his account. 31 r. Keesey is an
a 'vac& jivu.iivi, iirt.7jr in Alio
Sainily relations, and no man was more
rudetit and circumspect in his deport-"-nt.
He has a wile and five children,
whom he was a kind and affectionate
ishand and father. For some days be-
re lie left, he appeared to be gloomy and
i deep trouble. Simultaneous villi his
uvbg Lome, a very handsotac and fasci
iting young grass widow disappeared iu
f uivoterious manner. The disappearance
t the grass widovr on the same day that
Mr. Keesey left has thrown a dark cloud
i
fjund the circumstance, and filled the
arts of his wife and friends with unal

rw days will explain the matter in such a
manner as to relieve the character of the

'irround him, and restore him to that

TIE Wkatukr. Indian Summer is
f"n and the wc-athej is deliirhtful.
TiiaxksgivixgTukkkys. Well ! davs
and weeks have passed since we published
the Governor's Proclamation; the season
wanes; the nights grow cold; the 24th of
November comes 011 apace ; yet have we
seen no sign no, not even the least sign
of our Thanksgiving Turkey. That he
is in existence at this very moment, we en
tertain not the least shadow of a doubt.
That he "magnificent biped" as he is
was hatched aud fed and reared for our
especial benefit ; that he lives for us, and
will die for us, is just as certain as Fate.
But the locality of the bird the hmts in
quo ah ! that is not so certain. On whose
corn and oats is he now revelling ? Whose
barn.yard is he pacing with measured
tread, as he puts to shame all the minor
specimens of the feathered kingdom, in
the shape of ducks, geese and chickens ?
Or whose coop is he rendering vocal with
his delightful notes of gobble ! gobble !
gobble I ? These are questious which per
plex us. Wio has our Turkey ? Header,
w hatever your nation, kindred, color, occu
pation, or politics, if you have our Tur
key, do a.s you would wish to be done bv,
and bring him to our Sanctum.
N. Ii. If several of our readers should
fancy they have our Turkey, it will be all
right. Moreover, we think he is a iat
Turkey ; but if he isn't, you will confer a
favor by making him so. If you should
prefer bringing him iu immediately after
reading this notice, we would suggest that
a little oats or corn be brought alonr as
an accompaniment. It is yet two full
weeks until Thanksgiving Day, and pro
visions of that kind are very scarce in our
town. Turkeys can't live on the wind.
The Kcles. Kules and Regulations
are indispensable to the good government
and well being of every association and
place of business ; and as the rules of each
establishment are peculiar to that estab
lishment, so the rules of a Printiug Of
fice are peculiar to a Printing Oflice.
We clip from an exchange a most admira
ble code of the latter kind, and having
adopted it entire, proceed to lay it down for
the benefit of ourselves aud all who may
hereafter be curious enough to visit our
office. We trust that all our friends will
study this code with care, as we are de
termined that '-ignorance of the law shall
excuse no man" no, not even a woman :
1. Enter softly.
2. Sit down quietly.
3. Subscribe lor the pnper.
4. Dou"t touch the poker.
5. Say nothing interesting.
0. Engage in no controversy.
7. Don't smoke.
8. Keep six feet from the table.
1. Don't tiiik to the printers.
1'3. Hands oft the papers.
11. Eyes ott' the manuscripts.
Gentlemen observing these rules, when en
tering a printing office, will greatly oblige the
printers, and need not fear the devil.
P. S. Persons on business are not required
lo be partu-ular in observing the rules.
X. 15. Th ladies who sometimes bles3 us
with their sweet smiles, and ever welcome
presence, for a few moments, are not expected
to keep the rules very strictly, and indeed it
will be agreeable to us to have them break the
fifth, eighth and ninth rules as often as con
venient. Pexx'a. Hail Road. After the 14th
inst., the running of the trains on this ad
mirably conducted road will be governed
by a new schedule. Wo will note the
change, publishing the "arrivals and de
partures" of the several trains at Wilmore
and Cresson, if our friend at those points
will be good enough to furnish us with
them.
1. S. Since the shove was put in type,
we have received from our friends, James
S. Clark, Esq., and G. W. Kerby, Esq.,
the following schedules, for which they
will please accept our thanks :

that the market affords, sent us a mam

JiEAUTiFUL Soxg. The following I
song is said to have been composed by the
Musician of Mary Queen of Scott's, and
to have been addressed to her. Our
friend Mr. George Barrett sings it beau
tifully. The truth is, at singing a song,
or playing the guitar, he is lutrd to heal,
aud as a civil engineer, a type setter, and
a gentleman, he has few superiors. Dem

Queen of my soul! whose star-like eyes,
Are all the light I seek;
Whose voice in sweetest melodies
Can love or pardon speak,
I bow me to thy loved control,
Queen of my soul! Mary! Mary!
Queen of my soul !
Mountains of thy native shore
Are cold and dim and gray ;
Ah ! linger mid their clouds no more,
Thy home is far away,
Where Italy's blue waters roll;
Queen of my soul ! Mary ! Mary !
Queen of my soul !
The perfumed rose for thee is twined,
The lute awakes its strain ;
. Then shall the withering Northern winds
Steal all thy sweets in vain ?
No, llj- beyond thy fate's control,
Queen of my soul ! Mary ! Mary !

Dickens' Works. We have received
the sixth volume of Petersons' cheap week
ly issue of "Dickens Works for the Mil
lion," containing the conclusion of Old
Curiosity Shop and commencement of Da
vid Copperfield. The volumes are fur
nished at twenty-five cents each, or five
dollars for the complete sett of twenty
eight volumes, sent free of postage to any
place-in the United States. We commend
the determination of this enterprising
Philadelphia firm, to furnish the complete
and entire works of Charles Dickens at a
price so reasonable, that all persons what
ever may possess a full sett, and direct the
especial attention of our readers to the
fact, and would advise them all to make a
remittance of Five Dollars at once, aud
secure the entire sett.
How to Make a Fortune. As this
seems to be the question of the day, and
as numerous other great men have given
tuir different modes of arriving at this
greatly-wished-for conclusion, we hazard
our views on the subject to the public.
They are simply these : De honest, indus
trious, and frugal; live within jour in
come ; don't buy an article you do not
need because it is cheap ; advertise your
business through the columns of the Allc
yhanian; and love God and be merry.
If this recipe don't carry you through,
you can then try the reverse, and see how
it works.
Jewelry Store. Joseph G. Holmes,
the proprietor of the large Jewelry Store,
on Main street, Johnstown, keeps con
stantly on hand a splendid assortment of
Clocks, Watches, etc., which he makes it
a point to sell at ruinously low rates. He
does a pretty extensive business iu the
wajr of advertising, and, as a natural con
sequence, sells more Jewelry, and cheaper,
than those establishments which do not.
Married. On the 25th ult., at Sum
mitville Borough, by the Rev. Mr. Ryan,
Mr. Arthur Storm to Miss Elizabeth
M'Dermit, all of Cambria county.
Ou the 20th ult., by the Rev
Mr. John J. Glass, of Hemlock, Cam
bria county, to Miss Sarah Litzinger,
of Cleveland, Ohio., formerly of JLoretto,
Cambria county.
Local Items. We desire to make the
Local Department of our Paper as inter
esting as possible, We are constrained,
therefore, to again ask our friends in all
parts of the county to send us an account
of any matter of interest which may oc
cur in their respective neighborhoods.
We will feel duly grateful for such favors.
Goods at Reduced Prices. Robert
Flinn, Esq., of Wilmore, is at present en
gaged in closing out his entire stock, of
Goods on hand, and in doing so, must
necessarily sell cheap. The good citizens
of Wilmore should embrace this opportu
nity of buying good and low-priced arti
cles, and give him a call.
f ?addlery. Those of our readers in
need of Saddles, Bridles, Harness, etc ,
can have their orders filled by James Ma
guire, on short notice. His establishment

in want of such articles are respectfully
